Basis of Presentation | |
Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes of the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM or the company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial statements and footnotes are unaudited. In the opinion of the company’s management, these statements include all adjustments, which are only of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present a fair statement of the company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses and other comprehensive income/(loss) that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events, historical experience, actions that the company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. As a result, actual results may be different from these estimates. In the first quarter of 2020, the company realigned offerings and the related management system to reflect divestitures completed in the second half of 2019 and tighter integration of certain industry-related consulting services. These changes impacted a few of the company’s reportable segments, but did not impact the Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to note 4, “Segments,” for additional information on the company’s reportable segments. The periods presented in this Form 10-Q are reported on a comparable basis. On April 6, 2020, Arvind Krishna became Chief Executive Officer of IBM and announced a number of management changes which did not impact the company’s reportable segments. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the company recorded a benefit from income taxes of $1,226 million. The tax benefit was primarily related to the tax impacts of an intra-entity sale of certain of the company’s intellectual property, which required the recognition of a $3,442 million deferred tax asset. The recognition of this deferred tax asset and the related impacts, resulted in a net one-time benefit in the quarter of $939 million. The company also recorded other discrete tax benefits in the quarter primarily related to changes in tax law. On July 9, 2019, the company completed the acquisition of all Noncontrolling interest amounts of $4.5 million and $7.0 million, net of tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, are included as a reduction within other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the company’s 2019 Annual Report. Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, beginning in the third-quarter 2019, revenues and related costs for post-contract support provided for perpetual (one-time charge) software licenses have been reclassified from Services Revenue to Sales Revenue and Services Cost to Sales Cost within the Consolidated Income Statement. The revenue and cost amounts reclassified were $0.5 billion and $0.1 billion, respectively three months |

Revenue by Geography (Dollars in millions) For the three months ended March 31: 2020 2019 Americas $ 8,166 $ 8,493 Europe/Middle East/Africa 5,517 5,727 Asia Pacific 3,888 3,961 Total $ 17,571 $ 18,182 Remaining Performance Obligations The remaining performance obligations (RPO) disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as of the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. It is intended to be a statement of overall work under contract that has not yet been performed and does not include contracts in which the customer is not committed, such as certain as-a-Service, governmental, term software license and services offerings. The customer is not considered committed when they are able to terminate for convenience without payment of a substantive penalty. The disclosure includes estimates of variable consideration, except when the variable consideration is a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property. Additionally, as a practical expedient, the company does not include contracts that have an original duration of one year or less. RPO estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustments for revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency. At March 31, 2020, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to RPO related to customer contracts that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied was $118 billion. Approximately 60 percent of the amount was expected to be recognized as revenue in the subsequent two years, approximately 35 percent in the subsequent three Revenue Recognized for Performance Obligations Satisfied (or Partially Satisfied) in Prior Periods For the three months ending March 31, 2020, revenue was reduced by $14 million for performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods mainly due to changes in estimates on contracts with cost-to-cost measures of progress. Reconciliation of Contract Balances The following table provides information about notes and accounts receivables — trade, contract assets and deferred income balances: At March 31, At December 31, (Dollars in millions) 2020 2019 Notes and accounts receivable — trade (net of allowances of $337 and $299 at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively) $ 6,927 $ 7,870 Contract assets (1) 488 492 Deferred income (current) 13,377 12,026 Deferred income (noncurrent) 3,769 3,851 (1) Included within prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The amount of revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that was included within the deferred income balance at December 31, 2019 was $4.2 billion and was primarily related to services and software. |

Segments | 4. Segments: During the first quarter of 2020, the company realigned offerings and the related management system to reflect divestitures completed in the second half of 2019 and tighter integration of certain industry-related consulting services. Accordingly, the company updated its Cloud & Cognitive Software segment, Global Business Services segment and the Other – divested businesses category in the first quarter of 2020 and recast the related historical information for consistency with the go-forward performance. Total recast revenue for full-year 2019 was approximately $0.3 billion of IBM’s total $77 billion. There was no change to the Global Technology Services, Systems or Global Financing segments, and there was no impact to IBM’s consolidated results.

Acquisitions/Divestitures | 5. Acquisitions & Divestitures: Acquisitions Purchase price consideration for all acquisitions was paid primarily in cash. All acquisitions, except otherwise stated were for 100 percent of the acquired business and are reported in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, net of acquired cash and cash equivalents. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the company completed one acquisition in the Cloud & Cognitive Software segment. The acquisition did not have a material impact in the Consolidated Financial Statements. On July 9, 2019, the company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding On the acquisition date, Red Hat shareholders received $190 per share in cash, representing a total equity value of approximately $34 billion. The company funded the transaction through a combination of cash on hand and proceeds from debt issuances. The following table reflects the purchase price and the resulting purchase price allocation as of March 31, 2020. An immaterial net purchase price adjustment was recorded in the first-quarter 2020 related to current tax liabilities.

N/A - not applicable The goodwill generated is primarily attributable to the assembled workforce of Red Hat and the increased synergies expected to be achieved from the integration of Red Hat products into the company’s various integrated solutions neither of which qualify as an amortizable intangible asset. The overall weighted-average useful life of the identified amortizable intangible assets acquired was 10.9 years. These identified intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, which approximates the pattern that the assets’ economic benefits are expected to be consumed over time. The following table presents the goodwill allocated to the segments as of March 31, 2020. (Dollars in billions) Goodwill Segment Allocated* Cloud & Cognitive Software $ 18.5 Global Technology Services 3.1 Global Business Services 1.1 Systems 0.4 Total $ 23.1 * It is expected that approximately seven percent of the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes. The valuation of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed is subject to revision. If additional information becomes available, the company may further revise the purchase price allocation as soon as practical, but no later than one year from Red Hat’s acquisition date. Any such revisions or changes may be material. The primary area of the purchase price allocation that is subject to revision relates to certain tax matters. Divestitures Select IBM Software Products The company received cash of $812 million at closing and $40 million of the contingent consideration in the third quarter of 2019. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the company transferred a participating interest in the outstanding receivable to a third-party bank and received $164 million in cash. The company expects to receive the remaining $648 million (net of any additional contingent consideration) by June 30, 2020. The outstanding contingent consideration is expected to be earned within 24 months of the closing. IBM will remit payment to HCL predominantly for servicing certain customer contracts until such contracts are terminated or entitlements are assumed by HCL. Cash of $139 million was remitted during the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to deferred revenue that existed prior to closing. IBM expects to remit an additional $185 million of cash to HCL by the end of 2021. The total pre-tax gain recognized on this transaction as of March 31, 2020 was $625 million. The total gain on sale may change in the future due to contingent consideration or changes in other transaction estimates, however, material changes are not expected. Select IBM Marketing Platform and Commerce Offerings A subsequent closing occurred in most other countries on March 31, 2020 and the company recognized an immaterial pre-tax gain. The company expects to close the remaining countries by May 31, 2020. The timing of the remaining closing is subject to change as more information becomes available. The amount of the pre-tax gain for the remaining countries will not be determinable until the valuation of the final balance sheet transferred is completed, however, it is not expected to be material. IBM Risk Analytics and Regulatory Offerings – Sales Performance Management Offerings – The above divested businesses are reported in Other–divested businesses as described in note 4, "Segments." The pre-tax gains recognized on the divestitures above were recorded in other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. |

Financial Assets & Liabilities | 7. Financial Assets & Liabilities : Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The company classifies certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy: ● Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date; ● Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and ● Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. When available, the company uses unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets to measure the fair value and classifies such items as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use current market-based or independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates and currency rates. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. The determination of fair value considers various factors including interest rate yield curves and time value underlying the financial instruments. For derivatives and debt securities, the company uses a discounted cash flow analysis using discount rates commensurate with the duration of the instrument. In determining the fair value of financial instruments, the company considers certain market valuation adjustments to the “base valuations” calculated using the methodologies described below for several parameters that market participants would consider in determining fair value: ● Counterparty credit risk adjustments are applied to financial instruments, taking into account the actual credit risk of a counterparty as observed in the credit default swap market to determine the true fair value of such an instrument. ● Credit risk adjustments are applied to reflect the company’s own credit risk when valuing all liabilities measured at fair value. The methodology is consistent with that applied in developing counterparty credit risk adjustments, but incorporates the company’s own credit risk as observed in the credit default swap market. The company holds investments in time deposits, certificates of deposit, U.S. government and agency debt, and corporate debt securities that are designated as available-for-sale. The primary objective of the company’s debt investment portfolio is to maintain principal by investing in short-term highly liquid securities with a credit rating of investment grade Aa2 or higher. Available-for-sale securities are measured for impairment on a recurring basis by comparing the security’s fair value with its amortized cost basis. Effective January 1, 2020 with the adoption of the new standard on credit losses, if the fair value of the security falls below its amortized cost basis, the change in fair value is recognized in the period the impairment is identified when the loss is due to credit factors. The change in fair value due to non-credit factors is recorded in other comprehensive income when the company does not intend to sell and has the ability to hold the investment. The company’s standard practice is to hold all of its debt security investments classified as available-for-sale until maturity. No impairment for credit losses and no material non-credit impairment was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Prior to the adoption of the new standard, available-for-sale securities were measured for impairment using an other-than-temporary impairment model. Certain non-financial assets such as property, plant and equipment, operating right-of-use assets, land, goodwill and intangible assets are also subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements if they are deemed to be impaired. The impairment models used for non-financial assets depend on the type of asset. There were no material impairments of non-financial assets for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The following table presents the company’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(2) Available-for-sale securities with an amortized cost basis that approximates fair value. (3) Included within investments and sundry assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. (4) Primarily includes U.S. treasury bills that are reported within marketable securities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. (5) Primarily includes corporate debt securities with a maximum maturity of two years that are reported within investments and sundry assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. (6) Level 1 includes immaterial amounts related to equity futures contracts. (7) The gross balances of derivative assets contained within prepaid expenses and other current assets, and investments and sundry assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020 were $427 million and $92 million, respectively, and at December 31, 2019 were $149 million and $94 million, respectively. (8) The gross balances of derivative liabilities contained within other accrued expenses and liabilities, and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020 were $253 million and $259 million, respectively, and at December 31, 2019 were $167 million and $506 million , respectively. N/A - not applicable Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value Short-Term Receivables and Payables Notes and other accounts receivable and other investments are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable, other accrued expenses and short-term debt (excluding the current portion of long-term debt and including short-term finance lease liabilities) are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except for short-term debt which would be classified as Level 2. Loans and Long-Term Receivables Fair values are based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates offered for similar loans to clients with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value for loans and long-term receivables was immaterial. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Long-Term Debt Fair value of publicly-traded long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. For other long-term debt (including long-term finance lease liabilities) for which a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique that uses rates currently available to the company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities is used to estimate fair value. The carrying amount of long-term debt was $52,685 million and $54,102 million, and the estimated fair value was $56,760 million and $58,431 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. |

Financing Receivables | 8. Financing Receivables: Financing receivables primarily consist of client loan and installment payment receivables (loans) and investment in sales-type and direct financing leases (collectively referred to as client financing receivables) and commercial financing receivables. Loans are provided primarily to clients to finance the purchase of hardware, software and services. Payment terms on these financing arrangements are generally for terms up to seven years. Investment in sales-type and direct financing leases relate principally to the company’s Systems products and are for terms ranging generally from two Effective January 1, 2020, the company adopted the new accounting standard related to credit losses, using the transition option whereby prior comparative periods were not retrospectively presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to note 2, “Accounting Changes,” for additional information. Under this new guidance, the amortized cost basis of a financial asset represents the original amount of the financing receivable (including residual value) adjusted for unearned income, deferred initial direct costs, cash collected, write-offs and any foreign exchange adjustments. The allowance for credit losses represents future expected credit losses over the life of the receivables based on past experience, current information and forward-looking economic considerations. Prior to the effective date, financing receivables were measured at recorded investment, which does not include residual value. As a result of the company’s transition option, all prior periods are presented at recorded investment, while current period information is presented at amortized cost. A summary of the components of the company’s financing receivables is presented as follows: Investment in Client Loan and Sales-Type and Commercial Installment Payment (Dollars in millions) Direct Financing Financing Receivables At March 31, 2020: Leases Receivables (Loans) Total Financing receivables, gross $ 5,479 $ 2,334 $ 12,605 $ 20,418 Unearned income (471) (3) (517) (991) Residual value* 646 — — 646 Amortized cost $ 5,654 $ 2,331 $ 12,087 $ 20,072 Allowance for credit losses (79) (12) (147) (238) Total financing receivables, net $ 5,575 $ 2,319 $ 11,940 $ 19,834 Current portion $ 2,112 $ 2,319 $ 7,695 $ 12,126 Noncurrent portion $ 3,463 $ — $ 4,245 $ 7,708 * Includes guaranteed and unguaranteed residual value. Investment in Client Loan and Sales-Type and Commercial Installment Payment (Dollars in millions) Direct Financing Financing Receivables At December 31, 2019: Leases Receivables (Loans) Total Financing receivables, gross $ 6,077 $ 3,836 $ 13,592 $ 23,504 Unearned income (509) (4) (570) (1,083) Recorded investment $ 5,567 $ 3,831 $ 13,022 $ 22,421 Allowance for credit losses (72) (11) (138) (221) Unguaranteed residual value 652 — — 652 Guaranteed residual value 53 — — 53 Total financing receivables, net $ 6,199 $ 3,820 $ 12,884 $ 22,904 Current portion $ 2,334 $ 3,820 $ 8,037 $ 14,192 Noncurrent portion $ 3,865 $ — $ 4,847 $ 8,712 The company utilizes certain of its financing receivables as collateral for nonrecourse borrowings. Financing receivables pledged as collateral for borrowings were $914 million and $1,062 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The company did not have any financing receivables held for sale at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Allowance for Credit Losses – Financing Receivables Refer to note A, “Significant Accounting Policies,” in the company’s 2019 Annual Report for a full description of its accounting policies for trade and financing receivables, contract assets and related allowances. The descriptions below include any changes to those policies due to the new standard. Effective with the adoption of the new credit losses standard, the company’s estimates of its allowances for expected credit losses include consideration of: past events, including any historical default, historical concessions and resulting troubled debt restructurings, current economic conditions, taking into account any non-freestanding mitigating credit enhancements and certain forward-looking information, including reasonable and supportable forecasts. Collectively Evaluated Financing Receivables The company determines its allowance for credit losses based on two portfolio segments: client financing receivables and commercial financing receivables, and further segments the portfolio into three classes: Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. For client financing receivables, the company uses a credit loss model to calculate allowances based on its internal loss experience and current conditions and forecasts, by class of financing receivable. The company records an unallocated reserve that is calculated by applying a reserve rate to its portfolio, excluding accounts that have been individually evaluated and specifically reserved. This reserve rate is based upon credit rating, probability of default, term and loss history. The allowance is adjusted quarterly for expected recoveries of amounts that were previously written off or are expected to be written off. Recoveries cannot exceed the aggregated amount of the previous write-off or expected write-off. Macroeconomic variables attributed to the expected credit losses for client financing receivables may vary by class of financing receivables based on historical experiences, portfolio composition and current environment. In addition to a qualitative review of credit risk factors across the portfolio, the company considers forward-looking macroeconomic variables such as gross domestic product, unemployment rates, equity prices and corporate profits when quantifying the impact of economic forecasts on its client financing receivables expected allowance for credit losses. The company also considers the impact of current conditions and economic forecasts relating to specific industries, geographical areas, and client-specific exposures on the portfolio. Under this approach, forecasts of these variables over two years are considered reasonable and supportable. Beyond two years, the company reverts to long-term average loss experience. Forward-looking estimates require the use of judgment, particularly in times of economic uncertainty. With evolving global impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, external economic models have been revised with increased frequency and with alternative scenarios. The company’s allowances at March 31, 2020, reflect the qualitative process described above. Any changes to economic models that occurred after the balance sheet date will be reflected in future periods. The allowance for commercial financing receivables is estimated based on a combination of write-off history and current economic conditions, excluding any individually evaluated accounts. At January 1, 2020, upon adoption of the new standard, the company recorded an additional allowance for client and commercial financing receivables (including related off-balance sheet commitments) of $64 million. This was primarily driven by an increase in the client financing receivables allowance. Refer to note 12, “Commitments,” for additional information regarding off-balance sheet commitments. Client Financing Receivables The following tables present the amortized cost basis or recorded investment for the client financing receivables portfolio segment at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, further segmented by three classes: Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. The commercial financing receivables portfolio segment is excluded from this presentation, as it is short term in nature and the current estimated risk of loss and resulting impact to the company’s financing results is not material.

Write-offs of lease receivables and loan receivables were $16 million and $47 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019. Provisions for credit losses recorded for lease receivables and loan receivables were a release of $6 million and an addition of $2 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019. Past Due Financing Receivables The company considers a client’s financing receivable balance past due when any installment is aged over 90 days. The following tables summarize information about the amortized cost basis or recorded investment in lease and loan financing receivables, including amortized cost or recorded investment aged over 90 days and still accruing, billed invoices aged over 90 days and still accruing, and amortized cost or recorded investment not accruing.

Credit Quality Indicators The company’s credit quality indicators, which are based on rating agency data, publicly available information and information provided by customers, are reviewed periodically based on the relative level of risk. The resulting indicators are a numerical rating system that maps to Moody’s Investors Service credit ratings as shown below. The company uses information provided annually by Moody’s, where available, as one of many inputs in its determination of customer credit ratings. The credit quality of the customer is evaluated based on these indicators and is assigned the same risk rating whether the receivable is a lease or a loan. The following tables present the amortized cost basis or recorded investment for financing receivables, excluding commercial financing receivables, by credit quality indicator at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Receivables with a credit quality indicator ranging from Aaa to Baa3 are considered investment grade. All others are considered non-investment grade. Effective January 1, 2020, under the new guidance for credit losses, the company discloses its credit quality by year of origination. Additionally, under the new guidance, the amortized cost is presented on a gross basis, whereas under the prior guidance, the company presented the recorded investment net of the allowance for credit losses. The credit quality indicators do not reflect any mitigation actions taken to transfer credit risk to third parties.

The net carrying amount of intangible assets decreased $569 million during the first three months of 2020, primarily due to intangible asset amortization. The aggregate intangible amortization expense was $622 million and $303 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in intangible amortization expense was primarily due to an increase in the gross carrying amount of intangible assets from the Red Hat acquisition which closed in the third quarter of 2019. In addition, in the first three months of 2020, the company retired $154 million of fully amortized intangible assets, impacting both the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization by this amount. The future amortization expense relating to intangible assets currently recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet is estimated to be the following at March 31, 2020: Capitalized Acquired (Dollars in millions) Software Intangibles Total Remainder of 2020 $ 415 $ 1,372 $ 1,787 2021 399 1,738 2,137 2022 170 1,676 1,846 2023 12 1,363 1,375 2024 0 1,313 1,313 Thereafter — 6,208 6,208 Goodwill The changes in the goodwill balances by segment, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2019 are as follows: Foreign Currency Purchase Translation (Dollars in millions) Balance Goodwill Price And Other Balance Segment 1/1/2020 Additions Adjustments Divestitures Adjustments** 3/31/2020 Cloud & Cognitive Software $ 43,037 $ 10 $ 12 $ — $ (438) $ 42,620 Global Business Services 5,775 — — — (102) 5,672 Global Technology Services 7,141 — — — (167) 6,974 Systems 2,270 — — — (19) 2,251 Other—divested businesses — — — — — — Total $ 58,222 $ 10 $ 12 $ — $ (727) $ 57,517 Foreign Currency Purchase Translation (Dollars in millions) Balance Goodwill Price And Other Balance Segment 1/1/2019 Additions Adjustments Divestitures Adjustments** 12/31/2019 Cloud & Cognitive Software* $ 24,463 $ 18,399 $ 133 $ — $ 41 $ 43,037 Global Business Services 4,711 1,059 1 (1) 5 5,775 Global Technology Services 3,988 3,119 — — 34 7,141 Systems 1,847 525 (110) — 7 2,270 Other—divested businesses* 1,256 — — (1,256) — — Total $ 36,265 $ 23,102 $ 24 $ (1,257) $ 87 $ 58,222 * ** Primarily driven by foreign currency translation. There were no goodwill impairment losses recorded during the first three months of 2020 or full year 2019 and the company has no accumulated impairment losses. As a result of the changes in the current economic environment related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company considered whether there was a potential triggering event requiring the evaluation of whether goodwill should be tested for impairment. The company assessed the qualitative risk factors for the Systems reporting unit (given the results of the 2019 annual impairment test) and determined that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount as of March 31, 2020. Purchase price adjustments recorded in the first three months of 2020 and full-year 2019 were related to acquisitions that were still subject to the measurement period that ends at the earlier of 12 months from the acquisition date or when information becomes available. Net purchase price adjustments recorded during the first three months of 2020 and full-year 2019 were not material. |

The company’s indenture governing its debt securities and its various credit facilities each contain significant covenants which obligate the company to promptly pay principal and interest, limit the aggregate amount of secured indebtedness and sale and leaseback transactions to 10 percent of the company’s consolidated net tangible assets, and restrict the company’s ability to merge or consolidate unless certain conditions are met. The credit facilities also include a covenant on the company’s consolidated net interest expense ratio, which cannot be less than 2.20 to 1.0, as well as a cross default provision with respect to other defaulted indebtedness of at least $500 million. The company is in compliance with its debt covenants and provides periodic certifications to its lenders. The failure to comply with its debt covenants could constitute an event of default with respect to the debt to which such provisions apply. If certain events of default were to occur, the principal and interest on the debt to which such event of default applied would become immediately due and payable. In the first half of 2019, the company issued an aggregate of $20 billion of U.S. dollar fixed- and floating-rate notes and $5.7 billion of Euro fixed-rate notes. The proceeds were primarily used for the acquisition of Red Hat. For additional information on this transaction, refer to note 5, “Acquisitions & Divestitures.” In the first quarter of 2020, the company issued an aggregate of $4.1 billion of Euro fixed-rate notes and the proceeds were primarily used to early redeem outstanding fixed-rate debt which was due in 2021 in the aggregate amount of $2.9 billion. The notes were redeemed at a price equal to 100 percent of the aggregate principal plus a make-whole premium and accrued interest. The company incurred a loss of $49 million upon redemption that was recorded in other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Pre-swap annual contractual obligations of long-term debt outstanding at March 31, 2020, are as follows: (Dollars in millions) Total Remainder of 2020 $ 5,731 2021 6,897 2022 7,180 2023 5,342 2024 6,302 Thereafter 29,964 Total $ 61,417 Interest on Debt (Dollars in millions) For the three months ended March 31: 2020 2019 Cost of financing $ 119 $ 179 Interest expense 326 210 Interest capitalized 5 2 Total interest paid and accrued $ 449 $ 391 Lines of Credit IBM has a $10.25 billion Five-Year Credit Agreement with a maturity date of July 20, 2024.

Commitments: The company’s extended lines of credit to third-party entities include unused amounts of $2.1 billion and $1.8 billion at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. A portion of these amounts was available to the company’s business partners to support their working capital needs. In addition, the company has committed to provide future financing to its clients in connection with client purchase agreements for $6.0 billion and $6.3 billion at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Effective January 1, 2020, the company adopted the new standard on credit losses, which resulted in the recognition of a related allowance for non-cancellable off-balance sheet commitments. Refer to note 2, “Accounting Changes,” for additional information. The allowance for these commitments is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and was not material at March 31, 2020. The company collectively evaluates the allowance for these arrangements using a provision methodology consistent with the portfolio of the commitments. Refer to note 8, “Financing Receivables,” for additional information. The company has applied the guidance requiring a guarantor to disclose certain types of guarantees, even if the likelihood of requiring the guarantor’s performance is remote. The following is a description of arrangements in which the company is the guarantor. The company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Typically, these obligations arise in the context of contracts entered into by the company, under which the company customarily agrees to hold the party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations and covenants related to such matters as title to the assets sold, certain intellectual property rights, specified environmental matters, third-party performance of nonfinancial contractual obligations and certain income taxes. In each of these circumstances, payment by the company is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, the procedures of which typically allow the company to challenge the other party’s claims. While typically indemnification provisions do not include a contractual maximum on the company’s payment, the company’s obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or nature of claim, and in some instances, the company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by the company. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements due to the conditional nature of the company’s obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the company under these agreements have not had a material effect on the company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, the company guarantees certain loans and financial commitments. The maximum potential future payment under these financial guarantees and the fair value of these guarantees recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was not material. Changes in the company’s warranty liability for standard warranties, which are included in other accrued expenses and liabilities and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and for extended warranty contracts, which are included in deferred income in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, are presented in the following tables. Standard Warranty Liability (Dollars in millions) 2020 2019 Balance at January 1 $ 113 $ 118 Current period accruals 20 19 Accrual adjustments to reflect actual experience (6) (1) Charges incurred (26) (29) Balance at March 31 $ 100 $ 107 Extended Warranty Liability (Dollars in millions) 2020 2019 Balance at January 1 $ 477 $ 533 Revenue deferred for new extended warranty contracts 40 36 Amortization of deferred revenue (57) (64) Other* (13) (3) Balance at March 31 $ 447 $ 503 Current portion $ 219 $ 242 Noncurrent portion $ 228 $ 261 * Other primarily consists of foreign currency translation adjustments. |

Contingencies | 13. Contingencies: As a company with a substantial employee population and with clients in more than 175 countries, IBM is involved, either as plaintiff or defendant, in a variety of ongoing claims, demands, suits, investigations, tax matters and proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. The company is a leader in the information technology industry and, as such, has been and will continue to be subject to claims challenging its IP rights and associated products and offerings, including claims of copyright and patent infringement and violations of trade secrets and other IP rights. In addition, the company enforces its own IP against infringement, through license negotiations, lawsuits or otherwise. Also, as is typical for companies of IBM’s scope and scale, the company is party to actions and proceedings in various jurisdictions involving a wide range of labor and employment issues (including matters related to contested employment decisions, country-specific labor and employment laws, and the company’s pension, retirement and other benefit plans), as well as actions with respect to contracts, product liability, securities, foreign operations, competition law and environmental matters. These actions may be commenced by a number of different parties, including competitors, clients, current or former employees, government and regulatory agencies, stockholders and representatives of the locations in which the company does business. Some of the actions to which the company is party may involve particularly complex technical issues, and some actions may raise novel questions under the laws of the various jurisdictions in which these matters arise. The company records a provision with respect to a claim, suit, investigation or proceeding when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any recorded liabilities, including any changes to such liabilities for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In accordance with the relevant accounting guidance, the company provides disclosures of matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. In addition, the company also discloses matters based on its consideration of other matters and qualitative factors, including the experience of other companies in the industry, and investor, customer and employee relations considerations. With respect to certain of the claims, suits, investigations and proceedings discussed herein, the company believes at this time that the likelihood of any material loss is remote, given, for example, the procedural status, court rulings, and/or the strength of the company’s defenses in those matters. With respect to the remaining claims, suits, investigations and proceedings discussed in this note, except as specifically discussed herein, the company is unable to provide estimates of reasonably possible losses or range of losses, including losses in excess of amounts accrued, if any, for the following reasons. Claims, suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain, and it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of these matters. It is the company’s experience that damage amounts claimed in litigation against it are unreliable and unrelated to possible outcomes, and as such are not meaningful indicators of the company’s potential liability. Further, the company is unable to provide such an estimate due to a number of other factors with respect to these claims, suits, investigations and proceedings, including considerations of the procedural status of the matter in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and/or the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matters. The company reviews claims, suits, investigations and proceedings at least quarterly, and decisions are made with respect to recording or adjusting provisions and disclosing reasonably possible losses or range of losses (individually or in the aggregate), to reflect the impact and status of settlement discussions, discovery, procedural and substantive rulings, reviews by counsel and other information pertinent to a particular matter. Whether any losses, damages or remedies finally determined in any claim, suit, investigation or proceeding could reasonably have a material effect on the company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will depend on a number of variables, including: the timing and amount of such losses or damages; the structure and type of any such remedies; the significance of the impact any such losses, damages or remedies may have in the Consolidated Financial Statements; and the unique facts and circumstances of the particular matter that may give rise to additional factors. While the company will continue to defend itself vigorously, it is possible that the company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be affected in any particular period by the resolution of one or more of these matters. The following is a summary of the more significant legal matters involving the company. The company is a defendant in an action filed on March 6, 2003 in state court in Salt Lake City, Utah by the SCO Group (SCO v. IBM). The company removed the case to Federal Court in Utah. Plaintiff is an alleged successor in interest to some of AT&T’s UNIX IP rights, and alleges copyright infringement, unfair competition, interference with contract and breach of contract with regard to the company’s distribution of AIX and Dynix and contribution of code to Linux and the company has asserted counterclaims. On September 14, 2007, plaintiff filed for bankruptcy protection, and all proceedings in this case were stayed. The court in another suit, the SCO Group, Inc. v. Novell, Inc., held a trial in March 2010. The jury found that Novell is the owner of UNIX and UnixWare copyrights; the judge subsequently ruled that SCO is obligated to recognize Novell’s waiver of SCO’s claims against IBM and Sequent for breach of UNIX license agreements. On August 30, 2011, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district court’s ruling and denied SCO’s appeal of this matter. In June 2013, the Federal Court in Utah granted SCO’s motion to reopen the SCO v. IBM case. In February 2016, the Federal Court ruled in favor of IBM on all of SCO’s remaining claims, and SCO appealed. On October 30, 2017, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of all but one of SCO’s remaining claims, which was remanded to the Federal Court in Utah. On March 9, 2017, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s Department of Labor and Industry sued IBM in Pennsylvania state court regarding a 2006 contract for the development of a custom software system to manage the Commonwealth’s unemployment insurance benefits programs. The matter is pending in a Pennsylvania court. In December 2017, CIS General Insurance Limited (CISGIL) sued IBM UK regarding a contract entered into by IBM UK and CISGIL in 2015 to implement and operate an IT insurance platform. The contract was terminated by IBM UK in July 2017 for non-payment by CISGIL. CISGIL alleges wrongful termination, breach of contract and breach of warranty. The matter is pending in the London High Court with trial beginning in January 2020. In May 2015, a putative class action was commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York related to the company’s October 2014 announcement that it was divesting its global commercial semiconductor technology business, alleging violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Management’s Retirement Plans Committee and three current or former IBM executives are named as defendants. On September 29, 2017, the Court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss the first amended complaint. On December 10, 2018, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the District Court order. On January 14, 2020, the Supreme Court of the United States vacated the decision and remanded the case to the Second Circuit. The company is party to, or otherwise involved in, proceedings brought by U.S. federal or state environmental agencies under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), known as “Superfund,” or laws similar to CERCLA. Such statutes require potentially responsible parties to participate in remediation activities regardless of fault or ownership of sites. The company is also conducting environmental investigations, assessments or remediations at or in the vicinity of several current or former operating sites globally pursuant to permits, administrative orders or agreements with country, state or local environmental agencies, and is involved in lawsuits and claims concerning certain current or former operating sites. The company is also subject to ongoing tax examinations and governmental assessments in various jurisdictions. Along with many other U.S. companies doing business in Brazil, the company is involved in various challenges with Brazilian tax authorities regarding non-income tax assessments and non-income tax litigation matters. The total potential amount related to all these matters for all applicable years is approximately $750 million. The company believes it will prevail on these matters and that this amount is not a meaningful indicator of liability. |

Derivative Financial Instruments | |
Derivative Financial Instruments | 15. Derivative Financial Instruments: The company operates in multiple functional currencies and is a significant lender and borrower in the global markets. In the normal course of business, the company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations, and to a lesser extent equity and commodity price changes and client credit risk. The company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives, and, where cost effective, financing with debt in the currencies in which assets are denominated. For interest rate exposures, derivatives are used to better align rate movements between the interest rates associated with the company’s lease and other financial assets and the interest rates associated with its financing debt. Derivatives are also used to manage the related cost of debt. For foreign currency exposures, derivatives are used to better manage the cash flow volatility arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. In the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the company does not offset derivative assets against liabilities in master netting arrangements nor does it offset receivables or payables recognized upon payment or receipt of cash collateral against the fair values of the related derivative instruments. The amount recognized in accounts payable for the obligation to return cash collateral at March 31, 2020 was $2 million and no amount was recognized at December 31, 2019. No amount was recognized in other accounts receivable for the right to reclaim cash collateral at March 31, 2020 and $26 million was recognized at December 31, 2019. The company restricts the use of cash collateral received to rehypothecation, and therefore reports it in restricted cash in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. No amount was rehypothecated at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Additionally, if derivative exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement had been netted in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 In its hedging programs, the company may use forward contracts, futures contracts, interest-rate swaps, cross-currency swaps, equity swaps, and options depending upon the underlying exposure. The company is not a party to leveraged derivative instruments. A brief description of the major hedging programs, categorized by underlying risk, follows. Interest Rate Risk Fixed and Variable Rate Borrowings The company issues debt in the global capital markets to fund its operations and financing business. Access to cost-effective financing can result in interest rate mismatches with the underlying assets. To manage these mismatches and to reduce overall interest cost, the company may use interest-rate swaps to convert specific fixed-rate debt issuances into variable-rate debt (i.e., fair value hedges) and to convert specific variable-rate debt issuances into fixed-rate debt (i.e., cash flow hedges). At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of the company’s interest-rate swaps was $3.0 billion at both periods. The weighted-average remaining maturity of these instruments at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was approximately 1.9 years and 2.2 years, respectively. These interest-rate contracts were accounted for as fair value hedges. The company did not have any cash flow hedges relating to this program outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Forecasted Debt Issuance The company is exposed to interest rate volatility on future debt issuances. To manage this risk, the company may use instruments such as forward starting interest-rate swaps to lock in the rate on the interest payments related to the forecasted debt issuances. In the second quarter of 2019, the company issued an aggregate of $20 billion of indebtedness (refer to note 11, “Borrowings,” for additional information). Following the receipt of the net proceeds from this debt offering, the company terminated $5.5 billion of forward starting interest-rate swaps. There were no instruments outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. In connection with cash flow hedges of forecasted interest payments related to the company's borrowings, the company recorded net losses of $188 million and net losses of $192 million (before taxes) at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, in AOCI. The company estimates that $18 million (before taxes) of the deferred net losses on derivatives in AOCI at March 31, 2020 will be reclassified to net income within the next 12 months, providing an offsetting economic impact against the underlying interest payments. Foreign Exchange Risk Long-Term Investments in Foreign Subsidiaries (Net Investment) A large portion of the company’s foreign currency denominated debt portfolio is designated as a hedge of net investment in foreign subsidiaries to reduce the volatility in stockholders’ equity caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates in the functional currency of major foreign subsidiaries with respect to the U.S. dollar. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value of debt designated as hedging instruments was $16.7 billion and $7.3 billion, respectively. The $9.4 billion increase is part of the company’s risk management strategy and is primarily due to the designation of new debt issuances and previously hedged Euro denominated debt. The company also uses cross-currency swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts for this risk management purpose. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges was $8.4 billion and $7.9 billion, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the weighted-average remaining maturity of these instruments was approximately 0.2 years and 0.1 years, respectively. Anticipated Royalties and Cost Transactions The company’s operations generate significant nonfunctional currency, third-party vendor payments and intercompany payments for royalties and goods and services among the company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries and with the company. In anticipation of these foreign currency cash flows and in view of the volatility of the currency markets, the company selectively employs foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its currency risk. These forward contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The maximum remaining length of time over which the company hedged its exposure is approximately four years. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted royalty and cost transactions was $9.6 billion and $9.7 billion, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the weighted-average remaining maturity of these instruments was approximately 0.7 years and 0.8 years, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, in connection with cash flow hedges of anticipated royalties and cost transactions, the company recorded net gains of $174 million and net gains of $145 million (before taxes), respectively, in AOCI. The company estimates that $180 million (before taxes) of deferred net gains on derivatives in AOCI at March 31, 2020 will be reclassified to net income within the next 12 months, providing an offsetting economic impact against the underlying anticipated transactions. Foreign Currency Denominated Borrowings The company is exposed to exchange rate volatility on foreign currency denominated debt. To manage this risk, the company employs cross-currency swaps to convert fixed-rate foreign currency denominated debt to fixed-rate debt denominated in the functional currency of the borrowing entity. These swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges. At March 31, 2020, the maximum length of time remaining over which the company hedged its exposure is approximately eight years. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges of foreign currency denominated debt was $2.4 billion and $8.2 billion, respectively. The $5.7 billion decrease in cross-currency swaps is part of the company’s risk management strategy and the previously hedged foreign currency denominated debt has been designated as a hedge of net investment in foreign subsidiaries. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, in connection with cash flow hedges of foreign currency denominated borrowings, the company recorded net losses of $308 million and net losses of $185 million (before taxes), respectively, in AOCI. The company estimates that $21 million (before taxes) of deferred net losses on derivatives in AOCI at March 31, 2020 will be reclassified to net income within the next 12 months, providing an offsetting economic impact against the underlying exposure. Subsidiary Cash and Foreign Currency Asset/Liability Management The company uses its Global Treasury Centers to manage the cash of its subsidiaries. These centers principally use currency swaps to convert cash flows in a cost-effective manner. In addition, the company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to economically hedge, on a net basis, the foreign currency exposure of a portion of the company’s nonfunctional currency assets and liabilities. The terms of these forward and swap contracts are generally less than one year. The changes in the fair values of these contracts and of the underlying hedged exposures are generally offsetting and are recorded in other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of derivative instruments in economic hedges of foreign currency exposure was $4.3 billion and $7.1 billion, respectively. Equity Risk Management The company is exposed to market price changes in certain broad market indices and in the company’s own stock primarily related to certain obligations to employees. Changes in the overall value of these employee compensation obligations are recorded in SG&A expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Although not designated as accounting hedges, the company utilizes derivatives, including equity swaps and futures, to economically hedge the exposures related to its employee compensation obligations. The derivatives are linked to the total return on certain broad market indices or the total return on the company’s common stock, and are recorded at fair value with gains or losses also reported in SG&A expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of derivative instruments in economic hedges of these compensation obligations was $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. Cumulative Basis Adjustments for Fair Value Hedges At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the following amounts were recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges: March 31, December 31, (Dollars in millions) 2020 2019 Short-term debt: Carrying amount of the hedged item $ (1,314) $ — Cumulative hedging adjustments included in the carrying amount - assets/(liabilities) (15) — Long-term debt: Carrying amount of the hedged item $ (2,147) $ (3,411) Cumulative hedging adjustments included in the carrying amount - assets/(liabilities) (475) (1) (440) (1) (1) Includes ($391) million and ($404) million of hedging adjustments on discontinued hedging relationships at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Effect of Derivative Instruments in the Consolidated Income Statement The total amounts of income and expense line items presented in the Consolidated Income Statement in which the effects of fair value hedges, cash flow hedges, net investment hedges and derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recorded and the total effect of hedge activity on these income and expense line items are as follows: Gains/(Losses) of (Dollars in millions) Total Total Hedge Activity For the three months ended March 31: 2020 2019 2020 2019 Cost of services $ 7,843 $ 8,272 * $ 10 $ 10 Cost of sales 1,624 1,603 * 9 18 Cost of financing 181 264 3 (18) SG&A expense 5,955 4,691 (191) 141 Other (income) and expense 182 (73) (101) (69) Interest expense 326 210 10 (20) * Reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

(2) The amount includes basis adjustments to the carrying value of the hedged item recorded during the period and amortization of basis adjustments recorded on de-designated hedging relationships during the period. (3) The company’s policy is to recognize all fair value changes in amounts excluded from effectiveness testing in net income each period. (4) Instruments in net investment hedges include derivative and non-derivative instruments. N/A - not applicable For the three months ending March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no material gains or losses excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness (for fair value or cash flow hedges), or associated with an underlying exposure that did not or was not expected to occur (for cash flow hedges); nor are there any anticipated in the normal course of business. |

Basis of Presentation | The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes of the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM or the company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial statements and footnotes are unaudited. In the opinion of the company’s management, these statements include all adjustments, which are only of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present a fair statement of the company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses and other comprehensive income/(loss) that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events, historical experience, actions that the company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. As a result, actual results may be different from these estimates. In the first quarter of 2020, the company realigned offerings and the related management system to reflect divestitures completed in the second half of 2019 and tighter integration of certain industry-related consulting services. These changes impacted a few of the company’s reportable segments, but did not impact the Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to note 4, “Segments,” for additional information on the company’s reportable segments. The periods presented in this Form 10-Q are reported on a comparable basis. On April 6, 2020, Arvind Krishna became Chief Executive Officer of IBM and announced a number of management changes which did not impact the company’s reportable segments. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the company recorded a benefit from income taxes of $1,226 million. The tax benefit was primarily related to the tax impacts of an intra-entity sale of certain of the company’s intellectual property, which required the recognition of a $3,442 million deferred tax asset. The recognition of this deferred tax asset and the related impacts, resulted in a net one-time benefit in the quarter of $939 million. The company also recorded other discrete tax benefits in the quarter primarily related to changes in tax law. On July 9, 2019, the company completed the acquisition of all Noncontrolling interest amounts of $4.5 million and $7.0 million, net of tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, are included as a reduction within other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Income Statement. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the company’s 2019 Annual Report. Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, beginning in the third-quarter 2019, revenues and related costs for post-contract support provided for perpetual (one-time charge) software licenses have been reclassified from Services Revenue to Sales Revenue and Services Cost to Sales Cost within the Consolidated Income Statement. The revenue and cost amounts reclassified were $0.5 billion and $0.1 billion, respectively three months |

Revenue Recognition For Remaining Performance Obligations | Remaining Performance Obligations The remaining performance obligations (RPO) disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as of the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. It is intended to be a statement of overall work under contract that has not yet been performed and does not include contracts in which the customer is not committed, such as certain as-a-Service, governmental, term software license and services offerings. The customer is not considered committed when they are able to terminate for convenience without payment of a substantive penalty. The disclosure includes estimates of variable consideration, except when the variable consideration is a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property. Additionally, as a practical expedient, the company does not include contracts that have an original duration of one year or less. RPO estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustments for revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency. |
Segments | During the first quarter of 2020, the company realigned offerings and the related management system to reflect divestitures completed in the second half of 2019 and tighter integration of certain industry-related consulting services. Accordingly, the company updated its Cloud & Cognitive Software segment, Global Business Services segment and the Other – divested businesses category in the first quarter of 2020 and recast the related historical information for consistency with the go-forward performance. Total recast revenue for full-year 2019 was approximately $0.3 billion of IBM’s total $77 billion. There was no change to the Global Technology Services, Systems or Global Financing segments, and there was no impact to IBM’s consolidated results |
Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured At Fair Value | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The company classifies certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy: ● Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date; ● Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and ● Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. When available, the company uses unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets to measure the fair value and classifies such items as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use current market-based or independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates and currency rates. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. The determination of fair value considers various factors including interest rate yield curves and time value underlying the financial instruments. For derivatives and debt securities, the company uses a discounted cash flow analysis using discount rates commensurate with the duration of the instrument. In determining the fair value of financial instruments, the company considers certain market valuation adjustments to the “base valuations” calculated using the methodologies described below for several parameters that market participants would consider in determining fair value: ● Counterparty credit risk adjustments are applied to financial instruments, taking into account the actual credit risk of a counterparty as observed in the credit default swap market to determine the true fair value of such an instrument. ● Credit risk adjustments are applied to reflect the company’s own credit risk when valuing all liabilities measured at fair value. The methodology is consistent with that applied in developing counterparty credit risk adjustments, but incorporates the company’s own credit risk as observed in the credit default swap market. The company holds investments in time deposits, certificates of deposit, U.S. government and agency debt, and corporate debt securities that are designated as available-for-sale. The primary objective of the company’s debt investment portfolio is to maintain principal by investing in short-term highly liquid securities with a credit rating of investment grade Aa2 or higher. Available-for-sale securities are measured for impairment on a recurring basis by comparing the security’s fair value with its amortized cost basis. Effective January 1, 2020 with the adoption of the new standard on credit losses, if the fair value of the security falls below its amortized cost basis, the change in fair value is recognized in the period the impairment is identified when the loss is due to credit factors. The change in fair value due to non-credit factors is recorded in other comprehensive income when the company does not intend to sell and has the ability to hold the investment. The company’s standard practice is to hold all of its debt security investments classified as available-for-sale until maturity. No impairment for credit losses and no material non-credit impairment was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Prior to the adoption of the new standard, available-for-sale securities were measured for impairment using an other-than-temporary impairment model. Certain non-financial assets such as property, plant and equipment, operating right-of-use assets, land, goodwill and intangible assets are also subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements if they are deemed to be impaired. The impairment models used for non-financial assets depend on the type of asset. There were no material impairments of non-financial assets for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. |
Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured At Fair Value | Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value Short-Term Receivables and Payables Notes and other accounts receivable and other investments are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable, other accrued expenses and short-term debt (excluding the current portion of long-term debt and including short-term finance lease liabilities) are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except for short-term debt which would be classified as Level 2. Loans and Long-Term Receivables Fair values are based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates offered for similar loans to clients with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value for loans and long-term receivables was immaterial. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Long-Term Debt Fair value of publicly-traded long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. For other long-term debt (including long-term finance lease liabilities) for which a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique that uses rates currently available to the company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities is used to estimate fair value. The carrying amount of long-term debt was $52,685 million and $54,102 million, and the estimated fair value was $56,760 million and $58,431 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. |
Financing Receivables | Effective January 1, 2020, the company adopted the new accounting standard related to credit losses, using the transition option whereby prior comparative periods were not retrospectively presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to note 2, “Accounting Changes,” for additional information. Under this new guidance, the amortized cost basis of a financial asset represents the original amount of the financing receivable (including residual value) adjusted for unearned income, deferred initial direct costs, cash collected, write-offs and any foreign exchange adjustments. The allowance for credit losses represents future expected credit losses over the life of the receivables based on past experience, current information and forward-looking economic considerations. Prior to the effective date, financing receivables were measured at recorded investment, which does not include residual value. As a result of the company’s transition option, all prior periods are presented at recorded investment, while current period information is presented at amortized cost. |
Allowance for Credit Losses - Financing Receivables | Allowance for Credit Losses – Financing Receivables Refer to note A, “Significant Accounting Policies,” in the company’s 2019 Annual Report for a full description of its accounting policies for trade and financing receivables, contract assets and related allowances. The descriptions below include any changes to those policies due to the new standard. Effective with the adoption of the new credit losses standard, the company’s estimates of its allowances for expected credit losses include consideration of: past events, including any historical default, historical concessions and resulting troubled debt restructurings, current economic conditions, taking into account any non-freestanding mitigating credit enhancements and certain forward-looking information, including reasonable and supportable forecasts. |
Collectively Evaluated Financing Receivables | The company determines its allowance for credit losses based on two portfolio segments: client financing receivables and commercial financing receivables, and further segments the portfolio into three classes: Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. For client financing receivables, the company uses a credit loss model to calculate allowances based on its internal loss experience and current conditions and forecasts, by class of financing receivable. The company records an unallocated reserve that is calculated by applying a reserve rate to its portfolio, excluding accounts that have been individually evaluated and specifically reserved. This reserve rate is based upon credit rating, probability of default, term and loss history. The allowance is adjusted quarterly for expected recoveries of amounts that were previously written off or are expected to be written off. Recoveries cannot exceed the aggregated amount of the previous write-off or expected write-off. Macroeconomic variables attributed to the expected credit losses for client financing receivables may vary by class of financing receivables based on historical experiences, portfolio composition and current environment. In addition to a qualitative review of credit risk factors across the portfolio, the company considers forward-looking macroeconomic variables such as gross domestic product, unemployment rates, equity prices and corporate profits when quantifying the impact of economic forecasts on its client financing receivables expected allowance for credit losses. The company also considers the impact of current conditions and economic forecasts relating to specific industries, geographical areas, and client-specific exposures on the portfolio. Under this approach, forecasts of these variables over two years are considered reasonable and supportable. Beyond two years, the company reverts to long-term average loss experience. Forward-looking estimates require the use of judgment, particularly in times of economic uncertainty. With evolving global impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, external economic models have been revised with increased frequency and with alternative scenarios. The company’s allowances at March 31, 2020, reflect the qualitative process described above. Any changes to economic models that occurred after the balance sheet date will be reflected in future periods. The allowance for commercial financing receivables is estimated based on a combination of write-off history and current economic conditions, excluding any individually evaluated accounts. |
Client Financing Receivables | Client Financing Receivables The following tables present the amortized cost basis or recorded investment for the client financing receivables portfolio segment at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, further segmented by three classes: Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. The commercial financing receivables portfolio segment is excluded from this presentation, as it is short term in nature and the current estimated risk of loss and resulting impact to the company’s financing results is not material. |
Past Due Financing Receivables | Past Due Financing Receivables The company considers a client’s financing receivable balance past due when any installment is aged over 90 days. The following tables summarize information about the amortized cost basis or recorded investment in lease and loan financing receivables, including amortized cost or recorded investment aged over 90 days and still accruing, billed invoices aged over 90 days and still accruing, and amortized cost or recorded investment not accruing. |
Commitments | Effective January 1, 2020, the company adopted the new standard on credit losses, which resulted in the recognition of a related allowance for non-cancellable off-balance sheet commitments. Refer to note 2, “Accounting Changes,” for additional information. The allowance for these commitments is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and was not material at March 31, 2020. The company collectively evaluates the allowance for these arrangements using a provision methodology consistent with the portfolio of the commitments. Refer to note 8, “Financing Receivables,” for additional information.The company has applied the guidance requiring a guarantor to disclose certain types of guarantees, even if the likelihood of requiring the guarantor’s performance is remote. |
Contingencies | The company records a provision with respect to a claim, suit, investigation or proceeding when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any recorded liabilities, including any changes to such liabilities for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In accordance with the relevant accounting guidance, the company provides disclosures of matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. In addition, the company also discloses matters based on its consideration of other matters and qualitative factors, including the experience of other companies in the industry, and investor, customer and employee relations considerations. With respect to certain of the claims, suits, investigations and proceedings discussed herein, the company believes at this time that the likelihood of any material loss is remote, given, for example, the procedural status, court rulings, and/or the strength of the company’s defenses in those matters. With respect to the remaining claims, suits, investigations and proceedings discussed in this note, except as specifically discussed herein, the company is unable to provide estimates of reasonably possible losses or range of losses, including losses in excess of amounts accrued, if any, for the following reasons. Claims, suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain, and it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of these matters. It is the company’s experience that damage amounts claimed in litigation against it are unreliable and unrelated to possible outcomes, and as such are not meaningful indicators of the company’s potential liability. Further, the company is unable to provide such an estimate due to a number of other factors with respect to these claims, suits, investigations and proceedings, including considerations of the procedural status of the matter in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and/or the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matters. The company reviews claims, suits, investigations and proceedings at least quarterly, and decisions are made with respect to recording or adjusting provisions and disclosing reasonably possible losses or range of losses (individually or in the aggregate), to reflect the impact and status of settlement discussions, discovery, procedural and substantive rulings, reviews by counsel and other information pertinent to a particular matter. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | The company operates in multiple functional currencies and is a significant lender and borrower in the global markets. In the normal course of business, the company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations, and to a lesser extent equity and commodity price changes and client credit risk. The company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives, and, where cost effective, financing with debt in the currencies in which assets are denominated. For interest rate exposures, derivatives are used to better align rate movements between the interest rates associated with the company’s lease and other financial assets and the interest rates associated with its financing debt. Derivatives are also used to manage the related cost of debt. For foreign currency exposures, derivatives are used to better manage the cash flow volatility arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. In the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the company does not offset derivative assets against liabilities in master netting arrangements nor does it offset receivables or payables recognized upon payment or receipt of cash collateral against the fair values of the related derivative instruments. The amount recognized in accounts payable for the obligation to return cash collateral at March 31, 2020 was $2 million and no amount was recognized at December 31, 2019. No amount was recognized in other accounts receivable for the right to reclaim cash collateral at March 31, 2020 and $26 million was recognized at December 31, 2019. The company restricts the use of cash collateral received to rehypothecation, and therefore reports it in restricted cash in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. No amount was rehypothecated at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Additionally, if derivative exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement had been netted in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 In its hedging programs, the company may use forward contracts, futures contracts, interest-rate swaps, cross-currency swaps, equity swaps, and options depending upon the underlying exposure. The company is not a party to leveraged derivative instruments. |
Derivatives, Methods of Accounting, Hedge Effectiveness | (3) The company’s policy is to recognize all fair value changes in amounts excluded from effectiveness testing in net income each period. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized over the employee requisite service period. |
