CNH INDUSTRIAL N.V.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

CNH Industrial N.V. (“CNH Industrial” or the “Company”) is incorporated in, and under the laws of, the Netherlands, and has its principal office in London, United Kingdom. The Company was formed as a result of the business combination transaction between Fiat Industrial S.p.A. (“Fiat Industrial”) and CNH Global N.V. (“CNH Global”). Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “CNH Industrial” and the “Company” refer to CNH Industrial and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of CNH Industrial N.V. and its consolidated subsidiaries have been voluntarily prepared by the Company without audit. Although prepared on a voluntary basis, the condensed consolidated financial statements included in the report comply in all material respects with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) governing interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. All adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2016. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the fiscal year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related accompanying notes and disclosures. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

In February 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of the grass and soil implement business of Kongskilde Industries, the impact of which was not material to the June 30, 2017 financial statements.

Certain financial information in this report has been presented by geographic area. Our geographic regions are: (1) NAFTA; (2) EMEA; (3) LATAM; and (4) APAC. The geographic designations have the following meanings:

 

NAFTA—United States, Canada and Mexico;

 

EMEA— member countries of the European Union, member countries of the European Free Trade Association (“EFTA”), Ukraine, Balkans, African continent and the Middle East (excluding Turkey);

 

LATAM—Central and South America, and the Caribbean Islands; and

 

APAC—Continental Asia (including Turkey and Russia), Oceania and member countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (excluding Ukraine).

2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adopted

Share-based Compensation

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The standard is intended to simplify several areas of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax impact, classification on the statement of cash flows, and forfeitures. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Inventory

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”). This standard amends the subsequent measurement of inventory for all methods other than last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method to measure at the lower of cost and net realizable value (estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation) instead of the lower of cost and market. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

6


Goodwill Impairment

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test of Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The amendment requires an entity to perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Not Yet Adopted

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. The new standard requires an entity to recognize revenue upon transfer of control of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration that the entity expects to receive. This new revenue recognition model defines a five-step process to achieve this objective. The new standard also requires additional disclosures to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB amended the effective date to be the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 with early adoption permitted in 2017. The FASB subsequently issued several amendments in 2016 clarifying various aspects of ASU 2014-09, including revenue transactions that involve a third party, goods or services that are immaterial in the context of the contract, licensing arrangements, certain transition practical expedients, disclosure of performance obligation and provisions for losses on construction-type and production-type contracts. Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented, or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance recognized at the date of initial application within the consolidated statement of changes in equity.

The Company is still evaluating the overall effect of the adoption of this standard. Based upon the implementation efforts to date, the Company has not identified any matters that it currently believes would result in a material effect on its consolidated net income/(loss), net equity or cash flows.  The Company expects to make additional disclosures related to the revenues arising from contracts with customers as required by the new standard. The Company currently plans to adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the retrospective approach.

 

Financial Instruments

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”), which amends ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments - Overall. This ASU changes the treatment for available-for-sale equity investments by recognizing unrealized fair value changes directly in net income, and no longer in other comprehensive income. The ASU is effective January 1, 2018, with the cumulative-effect adjustment from initially applying the new standard recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position as of January 1, 2018. The impact of the adjustments on the Company’s net income, financial position, and cash flows is expected to be immaterial.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which establishes ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The ASU introduced a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. Additional disclosures about significant estimates and credit quality are also required. The ASU is effective for annual period beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes ASC 840, Leases. The ASU’s most prominent change is the requirement for lessees to recognize leased assets and liabilities classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The ASU does not significantly change the lessee’s recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from the previous accounting standard. Lessors’ accounting under the ASC is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. ASU 2016-02 also will require disclosures designed to give financial statement users information on the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 including interim periods within those fiscal years, but early adoption is permitted. The ASU requires a modified

retrospective transition approach and provides certain optional transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Statement of Cash Flows

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”) that changes the presentation of restricted cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Compensation – Retirement Benefits

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (“ASU 2017-07”). The amendments in this update require that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost. The amendments also provide explicit guidance on how to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement and allow only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. ASU 2017-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

3. VENEZUELAN AND ARGENTINIAN CURRENCY REGULATIONS AND RE-MEASUREMENTS

The functional currency of CNH Industrial’s Venezuelan subsidiary is the U.S. dollar. At the end of each period, CNH Industrial re-measures the net monetary assets of its Venezuelan subsidiary from the bolivar fuerte (“Bs.F.” or “bolivars”) to the U.S. dollar at the rate it believes is legally available to the Company.

In January 2014, the Venezuelan government enacted changes affecting the country’s currency exchange and other controls and established a new foreign currency administration, the National Center for Foreign Commerce (“CENCOEX”). CENCOEX assumed control of the sale and purchase of foreign currency in Venezuela and established the official exchange rate. Additionally, the government expanded the types of transactions that may be subject to the weekly auction mechanism under SICAD I. Also in 2014, the Venezuelan government announced that another floating rate exchange system (SICAD II) would be initiated. In February 2015, the Venezuelan government announced that the two previously used currency conversion mechanisms (SICAD I and SICAD II) had been merged into a single mechanism called SICAD and introduced a new open market exchange rate system, SIMADI. The changes created a three-tiered system.

In March 2016, the Venezuelan government devalued its currency and reduced its existing three-tiered system to a two-tiered system by eliminating the SICAD rate. The CENCOEX rate, which was the official rate available for purchases and sales of essential items, was changed to 10 bolivars per U.S. dollar from 6.3 and is now known as DIPRO. The Venezuelan government also announced that the SIMADI rate would be replaced by the DICOM rate, which is allowed to float freely and fluctuates based on supply and demand. As a result, management determined that the DICOM rate was the most appropriate legally available rate to re-measure the net monetary assets of the Company’s Venezuelan subsidiary, except for those cases in which the Company had a legally enforceable right of obtaining U.S. dollars at a different predetermined exchange rate. At June 30, 2017 and 2016, the net monetary assets were re-measured at the DICOM rate of 2,636.70 and 625.23 bolivars per U.S. dollar, respectively, resulting in a pre- and after-tax charge of $3 million and $4 million in the line item “Other, Net” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively and $7 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. CNH Industrial’s results of operations in Venezuela for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were negligible as a percentage of both the Company’s net revenues and operating profit.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company continues to control, and therefore consolidate, its Venezuelan operations. Despite the significant macroeconomic challenges in the country, CNH Industrial intends to continue its presence in the Venezuelan market for the foreseeable future. CNH Industrial continues to monitor the Venezuelan economic situation and is actively engaged in discussions with the Venezuelan government agencies concerning its ongoing business activities. If, in the future, it concludes that it no longer maintains control over its operations in Venezuela, CNH Industrial may need to de-consolidate its operations in Venezuela, which would result in a pre- and after-tax charge of approximately $88 million.

Additionally, at the end of each period, CNH Industrial re-measures the net monetary assets of its Argentinian subsidiaries from the Argentine Peso into the U.S. dollar. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, CNH Industrial recorded a charge of $6 million and $10 million, respectively, and $2 million and $12 million, respectively, following the re-measurement of such net monetary assets.

4. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The Company consolidates various securitization trusts and facilities that have been determined to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and of which the Company is a primary beneficiary. The Company has both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. For further information regarding VIEs, please see “Note 9: Receivables.”

The following table presents certain assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs, which are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets included in this report. The assets in the table include only those assets that can be used to settle obligations of the consolidated VIEs. The liabilities in the table include third party liabilities of the consolidated VIEs, for which creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were exercised into common stock. Stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units are considered dilutive securities.

A reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share is as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

7. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 33.9% and 44.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was 39.1% compared to -64.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was mainly impacted by unbenefited losses in certain jurisdictions.  The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was impacted by non-tax deductible charges of $49 million and $551 million, respectively, related to the European Commission settlement, as well as by unbenefited losses in certain jurisdictions. For more information on the European Commission settlement, see “Note 14: Commitments and Contingencies”.

8. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The operating segments through which the Company manages its operations are based on the internal reporting used by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to assess performance and make decisions about resource allocation. The segments are organized based on products and services provided by the Company.

CNH Industrial has the following five operating segments:

Agricultural Equipment designs, manufactures and distributes a full line of farm machinery and implements, including two-wheel and four-wheel drive tractors, crawler tractors (Quadtrac®), combines, cotton pickers, grape and sugar cane harvesters, hay and forage equipment, planting and seeding equipment, soil preparation and cultivation implements and material handling equipment. Agricultural equipment is sold under the New Holland Agriculture and Case IH Agriculture brands, as well as the Steyr brand in Europe and the Miller brand, primarily in North America. Following the Company’s acquisition of the grass and soil implement business of Kongskilde Industries in February 2017, certain agricultural equipment products will be sold under the Kongskilde, Överum, and JF brands.

 

10


Construction Equipment designs, manufactures and distributes a full line of construction equipment including excavators, crawler dozers, graders, wheel loaders, backhoe loaders, skid steer loaders, compact track loaders, and telehandlers. Construction equipment is sold under the New Holland Construction and Case Construction Equipment brands.

Commercial Vehicles designs, produces and sells a full range of light, medium, and heavy vehicles for the transportation and distribution of goods under the Iveco brand, commuter buses and touring coaches under the Iveco Bus (previously Iveco Irisbus) and Heuliez Bus brands, quarry and mining equipment under the Iveco Astra brand, firefighting vehicles under the Magirus brand, and vehicles for civil defense and peace-keeping missions under the Iveco Defence Vehicles brand.

Powertrain designs, manufactures, and offers a range of propulsion and transmission systems and axles for on- and off-road engine applications, as well as engines for marine application and power generation under the FPT Industrial brand.

Financial Services offers a range of financial services to dealers and customers. Financial Services provides and administers retail financing to customers for the purchase or lease of new and used industrial equipment or vehicles and other equipment sold by CNH Industrial dealers. In addition, Financial Services provides wholesale financing to CNH Industrial dealers. Wholesale financing consists primarily of floor plan financing and allows the dealers to purchase and maintain a representative inventory of products.

Revenues for each reported segment are those directly generated by or attributable to the segment as a result of its usual business activities and include revenues from transactions with third parties as well as those deriving from transactions with other segments, recognized at normal market prices. Segment expenses represent expenses deriving from each segment’s business activities both with third parties and other operating segments or which may otherwise be directly attributable to it. Expenses deriving from business activities with other segments are recognized at normal market prices.

The CODM reviews the performance of operating segments using Operating Profit of Industrial Activities calculated using U.S. GAAP measures. Operating Profit of Industrial Activities is defined as net sales less cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, and research and development expenses. Operating Profit of Financial Services is defined as revenues, less SG&A expenses, interest expenses and certain other operating expenses. In addition, with reference to Financial Services, the CODM assesses the performance of the segment on the basis of net income prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, the CODM reviews expenditures for long-lived assets; however, other operating segment asset information is not readily available.

Past due balances of financing receivables still accruing finance income represent the total balance held (principal plus accrued interest) with any payment amounts 30 days or more past the contractual payment due date. Non-performing financing receivables represent loans for which the Company has ceased accruing finance income. These receivables are generally 120 days delinquent. Finance income for non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrual of finance income is resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collections are reasonably assured.

Financing receivables are considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms. Receivables reviewed for impairment generally include those that are either past due, have provided bankruptcy notification, or require significant collection efforts. Impaired receivables are generally classified as non-performing.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A restructuring of a receivable constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when a lender grants a concession it would not otherwise consider to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. As a collateral based lender, the Company typically will repossess collateral in lieu of restructuring receivables. As such, for retail receivables, concessions are typically provided based on bankruptcy court proceedings. For wholesale receivables, concessions granted may include extended contract maturities, inclusion of interest-only periods, modification of a contractual interest rate to a below market interest rate and waiving of interest and principal.

TDRs are reviewed along with other receivables as part of management’s ongoing evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses attributable to TDRs is based on the most probable source of repayment, which is normally the liquidation of collateral. In determining collateral value, the Company estimates the current fair market value of the equipment collateral and considers credit enhancements such as additional collateral and third party guarantees.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had 243 retail and finance lease contracts classified as TDRs where a court has determined the concession in NAFTA. The pre-modification value was $6 million and the post-modification value was $5 million. Additionally, the Company had 455 accounts with a balance of $26 million undergoing bankruptcy proceedings where a concession has not yet been determined. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had 256 retail and finance lease contracts classified as TDRs where a court has determined the concession in NAFTA. The pre-modification value of these contracts was $4 million and the post-modification value was $3 million. Additionally, the Company had 492 accounts with a balance of $34 million undergoing bankruptcy proceedings where a concession has not yet been determined in NAFTA. As the outcome of the bankruptcy cases is determined by a court based on available assets, subsequent re-defaults are unusual and were not material for retail and finance lease contracts that were modified in a TDR during the previous 12 months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company had approximately $16 million and $48 million, respectively, in retail and finance lease receivable contracts classified as TDRs in EMEA. The primary concessions were skipped payments and extended contract maturities and, as such, the post-modification value approximated the pre-modification value. Subsequent re-defaults were not material for retail and finance lease receivable contracts that were modified in a TDR during the previous twelve months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company had approximately $16 million and $26 million, respectively, in retail and finance lease contracts classified as TDRs in LATAM. The concessions granted on these receivables were primarily skipped payments and extended contract maturities. Subsequent re-defaults were not material for retail and finance lease receivable contracts that were modified in a TDR during the previous twelve months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s wholesale TDR agreements were immaterial.    

Transfers of Financial Assets

The Company transfers a number of its financial receivables to securitization programs or factoring transactions.

A securitization transaction entails the sale of a portfolio of receivables to a securitization vehicle. This special purpose entity (“SPE”) finances the purchase of the receivables by issuing asset-backed securities (i.e. securities whose repayment and interest flow depend upon the cash flow generated by the portfolio). SPEs utilized in securitizations differ from other entities included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements because the assets they hold are legally isolated. For bankruptcy analysis purposes, the Company has sold the receivables to the SPEs in a true sale and the SPEs are separate legal entities. Upon transfer of the receivables to the SPEs, the receivables and certain cash flows derived from them become restricted for use in meeting obligations to the SPEs creditors. The SPEs have ownership of cash balances that also have restrictions for the benefit of the SPEs’ investors. The Company’s interests in the SPEs’ receivables are subordinate to the interests of third party investors. None of the receivables that are directly or indirectly sold or transferred in any of these transactions are available to pay the Company’s creditors until all obligations of the SPE have been fulfilled.

These securitization trusts were determined to be VIEs and, consequently, the Company has consolidated these trusts. In its role as servicer, the Company has the power to direct the trusts’ activities. Through its retained interests, the Company has an obligation to absorb certain losses or the right to receive certain benefits that could potentially be significant to the trusts.

No recourse provisions exist that allow holders of the asset-backed securities issued by the trusts to put those securities back to the Company although the Company provides customary representations and warranties that could give rise to an obligation to repurchase from the trusts any receivables for which there is a breach of the representations and warranties. Moreover, the Company does not guarantee any securities issued by the trusts. The trusts have a limited life and generally terminate upon final distribution of amounts owed to investors or upon exercise of a cleanup-call option by the Company, in its role as servicer.

 

16


Furthermore, factoring transactions may be either with recourse or without recourse; certain without recourse transfers include deferred payment clauses (for example, when the payment by the factor of a minor part of the purchase price is dependent on the total amount collected from the receivables), requiring first loss cover, meaning that the transferor takes priority participation in the losses, or requires a significant exposure to the cash flows arising from the transferred receivables to be retained. These types of transactions do not qualify for the derecognition of the assets since the risks and rewards connected with collection are not substantially transferred, and, accordingly, the Company continues to recognize the receivables transferred by this means in its balance sheet and a financial liability of the same amount under asset-backed financing.

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amount of such restricted assets included in financing receivables above are the following (in millions):

Restructuring Provision

The Company incurred restructuring expenses of $12 million and $24 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company incurred restructuring expenses of $10 million and $25 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were primarily attributable to actions within Agricultural Equipment, Commercial Vehicles and Construction Equipment as part of the Company’s efficiency program launched in 2014.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As a global company with a diverse business portfolio, CNH Industrial is exposed to numerous legal risks, including dealer and supplier litigation, intellectual property right disputes, product warranty and defective product claims, product performance, asbestos, personal injury, emissions and/or fuel economy regulatory and contractual issues, and environmental claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The most significant of these matters are described below.

The outcome of any current or future proceedings, claims, or investigations cannot be predicted with certainty. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings, claims or investigations could require the Company to pay substantial damages, or undertake service actions, recall campaigns or other costly actions. It is therefore possible that legal judgments could give rise to expenses that are not covered, or not fully covered, by insurers’ compensation payments and could affect CNH Industrial’s financial position and results. When it is probable that such a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, an accrual has been made against the Company’s earnings and included in “Other liabilities” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Although the ultimate outcome of legal matters pending against CNH Industrial and its subsidiaries cannot be predicted, the Company believes the reasonable possible range of losses for these unresolved legal matters in addition to the amounts accrued would not have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Environmental

Pursuant to the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), which imposes strict and, under certain circumstances, joint and several liability for remediation and liability for natural resource damages, and other federal and state laws that impose similar liabilities, CNH Industrial has received inquiries for information or notices of its potential liability regarding 65 non-owned U.S. sites at which regulated materials allegedly generated by CNH Industrial were released or disposed (“Waste Sites”). Of the Waste Sites, 15 are on the National Priority List (“NPL”) promulgated pursuant to CERCLA. For 59 of the Waste Sites, the monetary amount or extent of the Company’s liability has either been resolved, it has not been named as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”), or its liability is likely de minimis.

Because estimates of remediation costs are subject to revision as more information becomes available about the extent and cost of remediation and because settlement agreements can be reopened under certain circumstances, the Company’s potential liability for remediation costs associated with the 65 Waste Sites could change. Moreover, because liability under CERCLA and similar laws can be joint and several, CNH Industrial could be required to pay amounts in excess of its pro rata share of remediation costs. However, when appropriate, the financial strength of other PRPs has been considered in the determination of the Company’s potential liability. CNH Industrial believes that the costs associated with the Waste Sites will not have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial position, or results of operations.

The Company is conducting environmental investigatory or remedial activities at certain properties that are currently or were formerly owned and/or operated or that are being decommissioned. The Company believes that the outcome of these activities will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, or results of operations.

The actual costs for environmental matters could differ materially from those costs currently anticipated due to the nature of historical handling and disposal of hazardous substances typical of manufacturing and related operations, the discovery of currently unknown conditions, and as a result of more aggressive enforcement by regulatory authorities and changes in existing laws and regulations. As in the past, CNH Industrial plans to continue funding its costs of environmental compliance from operating cash flows.

Investigation, analysis, and remediation of environmental sites is a time consuming activity. The Company expects such costs to be incurred and claims to be resolved over an extended period of time that could exceed 30 years for some sites. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, environmental reserves of approximately $35 million were established to address these specific estimated potential liabilities. Such reserves are undiscounted and do not include anticipated recoveries, if any, from insurance companies. After considering these reserves, management is of the opinion that the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Other Litigation and Investigation

European Commission settlement: Iveco, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, and its competitors were subject to an investigation by the European Commission (the “Commission”) into certain business practices in the European Union in relation to medium and heavy trucks. 

 In the first quarter of 2016, CNH Industrial recorded a non-recurring non-tax deductible charge of €450 million ($502 million) in relation to the investigation and related matters. On July 19, 2016, the Commission announced a settlement with Iveco under which the Commission imposed a fine of €495 million (equivalent to $543 million at payment date). As a result of this settlement, the Company recorded an additional non-tax deductible charge of €45 million ($49 million) in the second quarter of 2016. The fine was paid by the Company on October 20, 2016. Following this settlement, the Company has been named as defendant in private litigation commenced in Israel, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom that remains at an early stage, and the Company expects to face further claims in various jurisdictions; the extent and outcome of which cannot be predicted at this time.

Guarantees

CNH Industrial provided guarantees on the debt or commitments of third parties and performance guarantees to non-consolidated affiliates as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 totaling of $362 million and $291 million, respectively.

Other Contingencies

CNH Industrial is successor to Fiat Industrial, a company formed as a result of the demerger of Fiat S.p.A. (which, effective October 12, 2014, was merged into Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V., “FCA”) in favor of Fiat Industrial (the “Demerger”). As such, CNH Industrial continues to be liable jointly with FCA for the liabilities of FCA that arose prior to the effective date of the Demerger (January 1, 2011) and were still outstanding at that date (the “Liabilities”). This statutory provision is limited to the value of the net assets transferred to Fiat Industrial in the Demerger and survives until the Liabilities are satisfied in full. Furthermore, CNH Industrial may be responsible jointly with FCA in relation to tax liabilities, even if such tax liabilities exceed the value of the net assets transferred to Fiat Industrial in the Demerger. At June 30, 2017, the outstanding Liabilities amounted to approximately 199 million ($227 million). CNH Industrial believes the risk of FCA’s insolvency is extremely remote, and therefore, no specific provision has been accrued in respect of the above-mentioned potential joint liability.

15. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company may elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This fair value option would be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The election can be made at the acquisition of an eligible financial asset, financial liability, or firm commitment or, when certain specified reconsideration events occur. The fair value election may not be revoked once made. The Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for eligible items.

Fair-Value Hierarchy

The hierarchy of valuation techniques for financial instruments is based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:

Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

Determination of Fair Value

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such items in Level 1. In some cases where a market price is not available, the Company will make use of observable market based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the items are classified in Level 2.

 

20


If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed valuation techniques that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates, currency rates, or yield curves. Items valued using such internally generated valuation techniques are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company to measure various financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified. Where appropriate, the description includes details of the valuation models, and the key inputs to those models, as well as any significant assumptions.

Derivatives

CNH Industrial utilizes derivative instruments to mitigate its exposure to interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Derivatives used as hedges are effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and are designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. CNH Industrial does not hold or issue derivative or other financial instruments for speculative purposes. The credit and market risk for interest rate hedges is reduced through diversification among various counterparties, utilizing mandatory termination clauses and/or collateral support agreements. Derivative instruments are generally classified as Level 2 or 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The cash flows underlying all derivative contracts were recorded in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

CNH Industrial has entered into foreign exchange forward contracts and swaps in order to manage and preserve the economic value of cash flows in a currency different from the functional currency of the relevant legal entity. CNH Industrial conducts its business on a global basis in a wide variety of foreign currencies and hedges foreign currency exposures arising from various receivables, liabilities, and expected inventory purchases and sales. Derivative instruments utilized to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with anticipated inventory purchases and sales in foreign currencies are designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on these instruments are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in earnings when the related transaction occurs. Ineffectiveness related to these hedge relationships is recognized currently in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the line “Other, net” and was not significant for all periods presented. The maturity of these instruments does not exceed 18 months and the after-tax gains (losses) deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) that will be recognized in net sales and cost of goods sold over the next twelve months assuming foreign exchange rates remain unchanged is approximately $(14) million. If a derivative instrument is terminated because the hedge relationship is no longer effective or because the hedged item is a forecasted transaction that is no longer determined to be probable, the cumulative amount recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized immediately in earnings. Such amounts were insignificant in all periods presented.

CNH Industrial also uses forwards and swaps to hedge certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Such derivatives are considered economic hedges and not designated as hedging instruments. The changes in the fair values of these instruments are recognized directly in income in “Other, net” and are expected to offset the foreign exchange gains or losses on the exposures being managed.

All of CNH Industrial’s foreign exchange derivatives are considered Level 2 as the fair value is calculated using market data input and can be compared to actively traded derivatives. The total notional amount of CNH Industrial’s foreign exchange derivatives was $6.7 billion and $7.0 billion at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Interest Rate Derivatives

CNH Industrial has entered into interest rate derivatives (swaps and caps) in order to manage interest rate exposures arising in the normal course of business. Interest rate derivatives that have been designated as cash flow hedges are being used by the Company to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates related to existing debt and anticipated issuance of fixed-rate debt in future periods. Gains and losses on these instruments, to the extent that the hedge relationship has been effective, are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in interest expense over the period in which CNH Industrial recognizes interest expense on the related debt. Any ineffectiveness is recorded in “Other, net” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and was insignificant for all periods presented. The after-tax gains (losses) deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) that will be recognized in interest expense over the next twelve months is insignificant.

 

21


Interest rate derivatives that have been designated as fair value hedge relationships have been used by CNH Industrial to mitigate the risk of reductions in the fair value of existing fixed rate bonds and medium-term notes due to changes in LIBOR based interest rates. Gains and losses on these instruments are recorded in “Interest expense” in the period in which they occur and an offsetting gain or loss is also reflected in “Interest expense” based on changes in the fair value of the debt instrument being hedged due to changes in LIBOR based interest rates. Ineffectiveness was insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

CNH Industrial also enters into offsetting interest rate derivatives with substantially similar terms that are not designated as hedging instruments to mitigate interest rate risk related to CNH Industrial’s committed asset-backed facilities. Unrealized and realized gains and losses resulting from fair value changes in these instruments are recognized directly in income. These facilities require CNH Industrial to enter into interest rate derivatives. To ensure that these transactions do not result in the Company being exposed to this risk, CNH Industrial enters into a compensating position. Net gains and losses on these instruments were insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

All of CNH Industrial’s interest rate derivatives outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are considered Level 2. The fair market value of these derivatives is calculated using market data input and can be compared to actively traded derivatives. The total notional amount of CNH Industrial’s interest rate derivatives was approximately $4.1 billion and $4.3 billion at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

17. RELATED PARTY INFORMATION

CNH Industrial’s related parties are primarily EXOR N.V. and the companies that EXOR N.V. controls or has significant influence over, including Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (“FCA”) and Ferrari N.V. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (“Ferrari”). As of June 30, 2017, EXOR N.V. held 41.69% of CNH Industrial’s voting power and had the ability to significantly influence the decisions submitted to a vote of CNH Industrial’s shareholders, including approval of annual dividends, the election and removal of directors, mergers or other business combinations, the acquisition or disposition of assets and issuances of equity and the incurrence of indebtedness. The percentage above has been calculated as the ratio of (i) the aggregate number of common shares and special voting shares beneficially owned by EXOR N.V. to (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding common shares and special voting shares of CNH Industrial as of June 30, 2017. In addition, CNH Industrial engages in transactions with its unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates over which CNH Industrial has a significant influence or jointly controls.

The Company’s Audit Committee reviews and evaluates all significant related party transactions.

Transactions with EXOR N.V. and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates

EXOR N.V. is an investment holding company in Europe. Among other things, EXOR N.V. manages a portfolio that includes investments in FCA and Ferrari. CNH Industrial did not enter into any significant transactions with EXOR N.V. during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

In connection with the Demerger, Fiat (now known as FCA) and Fiat Industrial (now known as CNH Industrial) entered into a Master Services Agreement (“MSA”) which sets forth the primary terms and conditions pursuant to which the service provider subsidiaries of CNH Industrial and FCA provide services (such as purchasing, tax, accounting and other back office services, security and training) to the service receiving subsidiaries. As structured, the applicable service provider and service receiver subsidiaries become parties to the MSA through the execution of an Opt-in letter that may contain additional terms and conditions. Pursuant to the MSA, service receivers are required to pay to service providers the actual cost of the services plus a negotiated margin. FCA subsidiaries provide CNH Industrial with administrative services such as accounting, cash management, maintenance of plant and equipment, security, information systems and training under the terms and conditions of the MSA and the applicable Opt-in letters.

Additionally, CNH Industrial sells engines and light commercial vehicles to and purchases engine blocks and other components from FCA subsidiaries. Furthermore, other minor transactions could be put in place with FCA in the ordinary course of business.

These transactions with FCA are reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as follows:

18. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

The operations and key financial measures and financial analysis differ significantly for manufacturing and distribution businesses and financial services businesses; therefore, management believes that certain supplemental disclosures are important in understanding the consolidated operations and financial results of CNH Industrial. This supplemental information does not purport to represent the operations of each group as if each group were to operate on a standalone basis. For example, Industrial Activities presents the cost of “interest free” periods for wholesale receivables as Interest Compensation to Financial Services, and not as a reduction of sales in their statements of operations. This supplemental data is as follows:

Industrial Activities—The financial information captioned “Industrial Activities” reflects the consolidation of all majority-owned subsidiaries except for Financial Services. Financial Services has been included using the equity method of accounting whereby the net income and net assets of Financial Services are reflected, respectively, in “Equity in income of unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations, and in “Investment in Financial Services” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Financial Services—The financial information captioned “Financial Services” reflects the consolidation or combination of Financial Services business.

Transactions between the “Industrial Activities” and “Financial Services” have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

CNH Industrial N.V. (“CNH Industrial” or the “Company”) is incorporated in, and under the laws of, the Netherlands. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “CNH Industrial” and the “Company” refer to CNH Industrial and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company has five reportable segments reflecting the five businesses directly managed by CNH Industrial N.V., consisting of: (i) Agricultural Equipment, which designs, produces and sells agricultural equipment (ii) Construction Equipment, which designs, produces and sells construction equipment (iii) Commercial Vehicles, which designs, produces and sell trucks, commercial vehicles, buses, and specialty vehicles (iv) Powertrain, which produces and sells engines, transmissions and axles for those vehicles and engines for marine and power generation applications; and (v) Financial Services, which provides financial services to the customers of our products. The Company’s worldwide agricultural equipment, construction equipment, commercial vehicles, powertrain operations as well as corporate functions are collectively referred to as “Industrial Activities”.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this report, as well as our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to seasonal and other factors.

Certain financial information in this report has been presented by geographic area. Our geographic regions are: (1) NAFTA; (2) EMEA; (3) LATAM; and (4) APAC. The geographic designations have the following meanings:

 

NAFTA—United States, Canada and Mexico;

 

EMEA—member countries of the European Union, member countries of the European Free Trade Association (“EFTA”), Ukraine, Balkans, African continent and the Middle East (excluding Turkey);

 

LATAM—Central and South America, and the Caribbean Islands; and

 

APAC—Continental Asia (including Turkey and Russia), Oceania and member countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (excluding Ukraine).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We monitor our operations through the use of several non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding our operating results and enhance the reader’s ability to assess our financial performance and financial position. These measures facilitate management’s ability to identify operational trends, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions as they provide additional transparency with respect to our core operations. These financial measures have no standardized meaning in U.S. GAAP, and are unlikely to be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies, and are not intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance and financial position as prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our primary non-GAAP financial measures are defined as follows:

Operating Profit

Operating Profit of Industrial Activities is defined as net sales less cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses and research and development expenses.

Operating Profit of Financial Services is defined as revenues, less SG&A expenses, interest expenses and certain other operating expenses.

We provide a reconciliation of Operating Profit to Net Income, which is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

32


Net Debt and Net Debt of Industrial Activities (or Net Industrial Debt)

Net Debt is defined as total debt less intersegment notes receivable, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and derivative hedging debt. We provide a reconciliation of Net Debt to Total Debt, which is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure included in our consolidated balance sheets. Due to different sources of cash flows used for the repayment of the debt between Industrial Activities and Financial Services (by cash from operations for Industrial Activities and by collection of financing receivables for Financial Services), management separately evaluates the cash flow performance of Industrial Activities using Net Debt of Industrial Activities.

Revenues on a Constant Currency Basis

We discuss the fluctuations in revenues on a constant currency basis by applying the prior-year average exchange rates to current year’s revenue expressed in local currency in order to eliminate the impact of foreign exchange (“FX”) rate fluctuations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The operations and key financial measures and financial analysis differ significantly for manufacturing and distribution businesses and financial services businesses; therefore, management believes that certain supplemental disclosures are important in understanding our consolidated operations and financial results. For further information, see “Note 18: Supplemental Information” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, where we present supplemental consolidating data split by Industrial Activities and Financial Services. Industrial Activities include the Financial Services business on the equity basis of accounting. Transactions between Industrial Activities and Financial Services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated data.

Revenues

We recorded revenues of $6,948 million for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 2.9% (up 3.8% on a constant currency basis) compared to the second quarter of 2016. Net sales of Industrial Activities were $6,655 million in the second quarter of 2017, a 3.2% increase (up 4.5% on a constant currency basis) compared to the second quarter of 2016, driven by strengthening agricultural equipment demand in LATAM and positive developments in APAC markets across all segments.

 

33


Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold were $5,427 million during the second quarter of 2017 compared with $5,252 million during the second quarter of 2016. The increase of 3.3% was driven by the increase in revenues. As a percentage of net sales of Industrial Activities, cost of goods sold was 81.5% in the second quarter of 2017 and 81.4% for the same period of 2016.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $575 million during the second quarter of 2017 (8.3% of revenues), down 3.4% compared to $595 million recorded in the comparable period of 2016 (8.8% of revenues). The improvement was primarily attributable to lower credit loss provisions and cost containment actions.

Research and Development Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, research and development expenses were $228 million compared to $225 million for the second quarter of 2016. The expenses in both periods were primarily attributable to continued investment in new products.

Restructuring Expenses

Restructuring expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were $12 million compared to $10 million for the second quarter of 2016. The expenses in the second quarter of 2017 were primarily attributable to actions in Agricultural Equipment, Commercial Vehicles and Construction Equipment as part of the efficiency program launched in 2014. The expenses in the second quarter of 2016 were mainly the result of efficiency program actions in Commercial Vehicles and Agricultural Equipment.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $234 million during the second quarter of 2017 compared to $240 million for the second quarter of 2016. The interest expense attributable to Industrial Activities, net of interest income and eliminations, was $122 million compared to $120 million for the second quarter of 2016. In the second quarter of 2017, interest expense includes a non-recurring charge of $17 million related to the early redemption of all the outstanding $636 million aggregate principal amount of Case New Holland Industrial Inc. 7.875% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”). Excluding the impact of this charge, interest expense decreased as a result of lower interest rates mainly due to the repurchase of $864 million aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes in 2016, which were replaced with lower rate notes, as well as a lower average indebtedness.  

Other, net

Other, net expenses were $139 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $190 million for the second quarter of 2016, which included the non-recurring charge of $49 million due to the European Commission settlement.  For more information on the European Commission settlement, see “Note 14: Commitments and Contingencies”.

Equity in Income of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries and Affiliates

Equity in income of unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates totaled $27 million and $(5) million for the second quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The second quarter of 2016 included a negative impact of $28 million incurred by the joint venture Naveco Ltd due to its exit from a line of business.

Net sales of Agricultural Equipment were $2,893 million for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 3.0% (up 3.3% on a constant currency basis) compared to the second quarter of 2016. The increase in net sales was primarily the result of a strong rebound in demand in LATAM. Net sales increased in APAC, mainly driven by favorable volume in Australia, and increased in the EMEA region. Net sales, as forecast, were down in NAFTA due to unfavorable industry volume in the small grain and hay & forage product lines.

In our key product segments within NAFTA, the over 140 horsepower (“hp”) tractor market was down 6% while demand for combines was up 7%. Smaller hp tractors in NAFTA had positive demand with the under 140 hp segment up 8%. In LATAM, tractor and combine markets increased 24% and 17%, respectively. EMEA markets were down 3% for tractors and up 6% for combines. APAC markets increased 1% for tractors and 97% for combines.

Agricultural Equipment’s worldwide market share performance was flat for tractors and down 7 p.p. for combines, mainly due to an increase in the small combine market in China in which we do not compete. The worldwide market share performance for combine markets in which we compete was down 1 p.p. In the second quarter of 2017, Agricultural Equipment’s worldwide unit production was 7% above retail sales, mainly in support of the expected seasonal increase in demand in Brazil, Argentina, and from dairy and livestock customers.  Production of NAFTA tractors and combines was 9% and 6% below retail sales, respectively.

Operating Profit

Agricultural Equipment’s operating profit was $303 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $301 million for the second quarter of 2016 with an operating margin of 10.5% (down 0.2 p.p. compared to the second quarter of 2016). Favorable volume in LATAM, improved fixed cost absorption, and disciplined net price realization across all regions offset negative volume and mix in NAFTA and increased spending on research and development.

Net sales of Construction Equipment were $676 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of 13.6% compared to the second quarter of 2016 (up 13.5% on a constant currency basis), as a result of a strengthening of NAFTA and APAC markets.

In the second quarter of 2017, Construction Equipment’s worldwide heavy industry sales were up 35%, and light industry sales were up 12% compared to the second quarter of 2016. Both industry light and heavy equipment sales increased in all regions.  Construction Equipment’s worldwide market share was substantially flat to slightly down across the portfolio compared to the prior year period driven by LATAM share loss.

Construction Equipment’s worldwide production levels were 8% above retail sales in the quarter to support the seasonal increase expected in NAFTA and EMEA.  Second quarter production was 4% higher than the previous year to balance channel inventory with current demand conditions.  

Operating Profit

Construction Equipment reported operating profit of $17 million for the second quarter of 2017 flat compared to the second quarter of 2016 with an operating margin of 2.5% (down 0.4 p.p. compared to the second quarter of 2016). The favorable volume trend was offset by foreign exchange impact on product cost. Net pricing was stable across the major markets.

Commercial Vehicles’ net sales were $2,575 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decline of 0.8% (up 1.4% on a constant currency basis) compared to the second quarter of 2016. Higher volumes in APAC and LATAM were more than offset by lower truck and bus volume in EMEA, mainly due to the 2016 Euro VI pre-buy effect in the light vehicle range.

During the second quarter of 2017, the European truck market (GVW ≥3.5 tons), excluding U.K. and Ireland, was up 1% compared to 2016. The Light Commercial Vehicles (“LCV”) market (GVW 3.5-7.49 tons) increased 3%, the Medium & Heavy (“M&H”) truck market (GVW ≥7.5 tons) decreased 1%. In LATAM, new truck registrations (GVW ≥3.5 tons) increased 10% compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily due to an increase of 63% in Argentina, while Brazil decreased by 6%. In APAC, registrations grew by 5%.

In the second quarter of 2017, our market share in the European truck market (GVW ≥3.5 tons), excluding U.K. and Ireland, was 12.6%, substantially flat compared to the second quarter of 2016. Our market share in LATAM was 11.9%, up 0.5 p.p. compared to second quarter of 2016.

Commercial Vehicles delivered approximately 40,600 vehicles (including buses and specialty vehicles) in the quarter, representing a 3% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2016. Volumes increased 7% in the M&H truck segment, while volumes in the LCV segment were down 7%. Commercial Vehicles’ deliveries decreased 6% in EMEA but increased in LATAM and APAC by 22% and 12%, respectively.

Commercial Vehicles’ second quarter ratio of orders received to units shipped and billed, or book-to-bill ratio, for the European truck market was 0.94, a decrease of 1% compared with the second quarter of 2016. In 2017, truck order intake in Europe decreased 6% compared to the second quarter of 2016 with a 13% decrease in M&H and a 3% decrease in LCV.

Operating Profit

Commercial Vehicles reported operating profit of $91 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $100 million for the second quarter of 2016 with an operating margin of 3.5% (down 0.4 p.p. compared to the second quarter of  2016). The decrease was primarily due to lower volume and unfavorable mix in EMEA, partially offset by manufacturing efficiencies and material cost reductions.

Powertrain

Net Sales

Powertrain net sales were $1,136 million for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 11.0% compared to the second quarter of 2016 (up 13.8% on a constant currency basis), as a result of higher volumes. Sales to external customers accounted for 47% of total net sales compared to 46% in the second quarter of 2016.

During the second quarter of 2017, Powertrain sold approximately 159,900 engines, an increase of 9.0% compared to the second quarter of 2016. In terms of major customers, 27% of engine units were supplied to Commercial Vehicles, 19% to Agricultural Equipment, 3% to Construction Equipment and the remaining 51% to external customers. Additionally, Powertrain delivered approximately 19,700 transmissions, a decrease of 13% compared to the second quarter of 2016, and 54,100 axles, a slight decrease compared to the second quarter of 2016.

Operating Profit

During the second quarter of 2017, Powertrain’s operating profit was $98 million, up $32 million compared to the second quarter of 2016 with an operating margin of 8.6%, up 2.1 p.p. compared to the second quarter of 2016 as a result of higher volumes and manufacturing efficiencies.

Revenues

We recorded revenues of $12,629 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, up 4.2% (up 4.9% on a constant currency basis) compared to the same period in 2016. Net sales of Industrial Activities were $12,039 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, a 4.5% increase (up 5.4% on a constant currency basis) compared to the prior year. Net sales of Industrial Activities increased in all segments.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold were $9,924 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with $9,490 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase of 4.6% was largely driven by the increase in revenues. As a percentage of net sales of Industrial Activities, cost of goods sold was 82.4% and 82.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses amounted to $1,117 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (8.8% of revenues), down 2.1%, compared to $1,141 million recorded in the comparable period of 2016 (9.4% of revenues). The improvement was primarily attributable to lower credit loss provisions and cost containment actions.

Research and Development Expenses

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, R&D expenses were $419 million compared to $408 million for the same period in 2016. The expense in both periods was primarily attributable to continued investment in new products.

Restructuring Expenses

Restructuring expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $24 million compared to $25 million for the same period in 2016. The expenses in the first half of 2017 were primarily attributable to actions in Agricultural Equipment, Commercial Vehicles and Construction Equipment as part of the efficiency program launched in 2014. The expenses in the first half of 2016 were mainly the result of efficiency program actions in Commercial Vehicles and Agricultural Equipment.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $453 million for the first half of 2017 compared to $470 million in 2016. The interest expense attributable to Industrial Activities, net of interest income and eliminations, was $225 million, a decrease of $14 million over the same period in 2016. In the first half of 2017, interest expense includes a non-recurring charge of $17 million related to the early redemption of all the outstanding $636 million aggregate principal amount of 2017 Notes. Excluding the impact of this charge, interest expense decreased by $31 million as a result of lower interest rates mainly due to the repurchases of $864 million aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes in 2016, which were replaced with lower rate notes, as well as a lower average indebtedness.

Other, net

Other, net expenses were $280 million for the first half of 2017 compared to $820 million for the first half of 2016, which included a non-recurring charge of $551 million in the first half of 2016 due to the European Commission settlement. For more information on the European Commission settlement, see “Note 14:  Commitments and Contingencies”.

Net sales of Agricultural Equipment were $5,239 million for the first half of 2017, up 6.2% (up 5.6% on a constant currency basis) compared to the same period in 2016. The increase was mainly due to a rebound in demand in LATAM, primarily in the Argentinian and Brazilian markets. Net sales increased in APAC mainly driven by favorable volume in Australia. Net sales were flat in EMEA and down in NAFTA due to unfavorable industry volume in the small grain sector, cash crop tractors, and hay & forage product lines.

In our key product segments within NAFTA, the over 140 hp tractor segment was down 8%, while demand for combines was up 2%. Smaller hp tractors in NAFTA had positive demand with the under 140 hp segment up 8%. In LATAM, tractor and combines markets increased 34% and 27%, respectively. EMEA markets were down 1% for tractors and 2% for combines. APAC markets increased 2% for tractors and 91% for combines.

Agricultural Equipment’s worldwide market share performance was slightly up for tractors and down 5.0 p.p. for combines.  

Operating Profit

Agricultural Equipment’s operating profit was $462 million for the first half of 2017 compared to $391 million for the same period in 2016 with an operating margin of 8.8% (7.9% in the first half of 2016). The increase was the result of revenue growth in LATAM and APAC as well as improved fixed cost absorption and disciplined net price realization.

Net sales of Construction Equipment were $1,199 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, up 6.0% compared to the same period in 2016 (up 5.8% on a constant currency basis) due to positive volume and mix primarily in NAFTA and APAC.

In the first half of 2017, Construction Equipment’s worldwide heavy industry sales were up 28% and light industry sales were up 14% compared to prior year. Industry light and heavy equipment sales increased in all regions.

Construction Equipment’s worldwide market share was substantially flat to slightly down across the portfolio compared to the prior year period.

Operating Profit

Construction Equipment reported an operating loss of $5 million for the first half of 2017 compared to a profit of $31 million for the same period in 2016, mainly as a result of pricing pressure in the first quarter of 2017 primarily in NAFTA as well as an unfavorable foreign exchange impact on product cost. Operating margin decreased 3.1 p.p. to -0.4% (2.7% in the first half of 2016). Results were impacted by planned slower production schedule in the first quarter to maintain appropriate levels of inventory. Net pricing was stable across all major markets in the second quarter.

Commercial Vehicles’ net sales were $4,666 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017, up 0.6% (up 2.9% on a constant currency basis) compared to the same period in 2016. Higher volumes in APAC and LATAM were offset by lower truck and bus volume in EMEA, mainly due to the 2016 Euro VI pre-buy effect in the light vehicle range.

During the first half of 2017, the European truck market (GVW ≥3.5 tons) excluding U.K. and Ireland was up 4% compared to 2016. The Light Commercial Vehicles (“LCV”) market (GVW 3.5-7.49 tons) increased 5%, the Medium & Heavy (“M&H”) truck market (GVW ≥7.5 tons) increased 2%. In LATAM, new truck registrations (GVW ≥3.5 tons) increased 5% compared to the first half of 2016 with a 13% decrease in Brazil while Argentina increased 69%. The LCV and M&H truck markets increased 12% and 2%, respectively.  In APAC, registrations increased 6%.

In the first half of 2017, our market share in the European truck market (GVW ≥3.5 tons), excluding U.K. and Ireland, was 12.4% substantially flat compared with the first half of 2016. Our market share in LATAM was 11.9%, down 0.4 p.p. compared to 2016.

Commercial Vehicles delivered approximately 72,700 vehicles (including buses and specialty vehicles) in the first half of the year, representing a 0.4% decrease compared to the first half of 2016. Volumes were higher in the M&H truck segment, up 7%, while volumes in the LCV segment were down 4%. Commercial Vehicles’ deliveries decreased 3% in EMEA, but increased in LATAM and APAC by 27% and 6%, respectively.

 

43


Operating Profit

Commercial Vehicles reported operating profit of $119 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (operating margin of 2.6%). This represents a $19 million decrease compared to the first half of 2016.  The decrease was primarily due to lower volume and unfavorable mix in EMEA, partially offset by higher volume in LATAM and APAC.

Powertrain

Net Sales

Powertrain net sales were $2,138 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of 12.2% (up 15.3% on a constant currency basis) compared to the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to higher volumes to third parties. Sales to external customers accounted for 46% of total net sales compared to 45% in 2016.

During the first half of 2017, Powertrain sold approximately 307,500 engines, an increase of 12% compared to 2016. In terms of major customers, 27% of engine units were supplied to Commercial Vehicles, 19% to Agricultural Equipment, 3% to Construction Equipment and the remaining 51% to external customers. Additionally, Powertrain delivered approximately 38,300 transmissions and 104,900 axles, a decrease of 9% and 1%, respectively, compared to the first half of 2016.

Operating Profit

For the first half of 2017, Powertrain’s operating profit was $172 million, up $53 million compared to the same period in 2016 with an operating margin of 8.0% (up 1.8 p.p. compared to 2016). The improvement was mainly due to higher volumes and manufacturing efficiencies.

Financial Services Performance

Finance and Interest Income

Financial Services reported revenues of $796 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of  1.1% compared to the same period in 2016 (down 0.5% on a constant currency basis), primarily due to the positive impact of currency translation partially offset by a lower average portfolio.

Net Income

Net income of Financial Services was $174 million for the first half of 2017, flat compared to the same period in 2016, as lower provisions for credit losses, lower income taxes and positive impact of currency translation offset reduced interest spreads.

Retail loan originations in the first half of 2017 were $4.2 billion, flat compared to the first half of 2016. The managed portfolio (including unconsolidated joint ventures) of $25.6 billion as of June 30, 2017 (of which retail was 63% and wholesale 37%) was up $0.8 billion compared to December 31, 2016 (flat on a constant currency basis).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

See our critical accounting policies discussed in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the most recent annual report filed on Form 20-F. There have been no material changes to these policies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following discussion of liquidity and capital resources principally focuses on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our operations are capital intensive and subject to seasonal variations in financing requirements for dealer receivables and dealer and company inventories. Whenever necessary, funds from operating activities are supplemented from external sources. We expect to have available cash reserves and cash generated from operations and from sources of debt and financing activities that are sufficient to fund our working capital requirements, capital expenditures and debt service at least through the next twelve months.

Cash Flows

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, consolidated cash and cash equivalents decreased by $416 million. Cash and cash equivalents at Industrial Activities decreased $564 million, while cash and cash equivalents of Financial Services increased by $148 million.

Cash Flows of Industrial Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $378 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $322 million generated in the first half of 2016. The increase in cash generated was primarily due to lower working capital absorption.

Net cash used in investing activities was $654 million in the first six months of 2017 compared to $441 million used in the first half of 2016. The increased cash usage was primarily due to an increase in expenditures for assets under operating leases and assets sold under buyback commitments as well as a decrease in net cash receipts related to intersegment receivables and payables.

 

45


Net cash used in financing activities was $497 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $205 million used in the first six months of 2016. The increased cash usage was primarily due to the early redemption of all the outstanding $636 million aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes.

Cash Flows of Financial Services

Net cash provided by operating activities was $58 million in 2017 compared to $315 million provided in the first half of 2016. The decrease in cash generated was primarily due to a higher level of wholesale portfolio.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $518 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $330 million in the first half of 2016, primarily reflecting an increase in net cash received related to intersegment payables and receivables.

Net cash used in financing activities was $432 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $972 million in the first quarter of 2016.  The decrease in cash usage was primarily due lower net repayments of debt.

In March 2017, CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. issued as a private placement €75 million (equivalent to $80 million) of notes at an annual fixed rate of 1.625% due in 2022 (the “1.625% CIFE Notes”) at an issue price of 99.4065 percent of their principal amount. The 1.625% CIFE Notes were issued under the €10 billion Euro Medium Term Note Programme unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by CNH Industrial N.V.

In April 2017, CNH Industrial Capital LLC issued at par $500 million of notes at an annual fixed rate of 4.375% due in 2022.

In May 2017, CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. issued €500 million (equivalent to $571 million) of notes at an annual fixed rate of 1.375% due in 2022 (the “1.375% CIFE Notes”) at an issue price of 99.335 percent of their principal amount.  The 1.375% CIFE Notes were issued under the €10 billion Euro Medium Term Note Programme unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by CNH Industrial N.V.

In June 2017, Case New Holland Industrial Inc. redeemed all of the outstanding $636 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.875% Senior Notes due 2017.

On June 15, 2017, S&P Global Ratings raised its long-term corporate credit rating on both CNH Industrial N.V. and CNH Industrial Capital LLC from “BB+” to “BBB-“ with stable outlook.  The short-term rating of CNH Industrial N.V. was raised from “B” to “A-3”.  The issue-level ratings of both CNH Industrial N.V. and CNH Industrial Capital LLC were also raised to “BBB-“.

Subsequent to the upgrade by S&P Global Ratings, the Euro Medium Term Notes will benefit from Eurosystem eligibility, and the financial covenant contained in the €1.75 billion Revolving Credit Facility that requires Industrial Activities to maintain EBITDA/Net interest ratio will no longer be applicable.

The calculation of Net Debt as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the reconciliation of Net Debt to Total Debt, the U.S. GAAP financial measure that we believe to be most directly comparable, are shown below:

The net intersegment receivable/payable balance owed by Financial Services to Industrial Activities was $515 million and $482 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The increase in Net Debt at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 mainly reflects the annual dividend payment of $161 million to shareholders and a negative foreign exchange impact on euro denominated debt, partially offset by the seasonal cash generation from operating activities.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

This quarterly report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this filing including statements regarding our: competitive strengths; business strategy; future financial position or operating results; budgets; projections with respect to revenue, income, earnings (or loss) per share, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or other financial items; costs; and plans and objectives of management regarding operations and products, are forward-looking statements. These statements may include terminology such as “may”, “will”, “expect”, “could”, “should”, “intend”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “outlook”, “continue”, “remain”, “on track”, “design”, “target”, “objective”, “goal”, “forecast”, “projection”, “prospects”, “plan”, or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Rather, they are based on current views and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside our control and are difficult to predict. If any of these risks and uncertainties materialize or other assumptions underlying any of the forward-looking statements prove to be incorrect, the actual results or developments may differ materially from any future results or developments expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Factors, risks, and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include, among others: the many interrelated factors that affect consumer confidence and worldwide demand for capital goods and capital goods-related products; general economic conditions in each of our markets; changes in government policies regarding banking, monetary and fiscal policies; legislation, particularly relating to capital goods-related issues such as agriculture, the environment, debt relief and subsidy program policies, trade and commerce and infrastructure development; government policies on international trade and investment, including sanctions, import quotas, capital controls and tariffs; actions of competitors in the various industries in which we compete; development and use of new technologies and technological difficulties; the interpretation of, or

adoption of new, compliance requirements with respect to engine emissions, safety or other aspects of our products; production difficulties, including capacity and supply constraints and excess inventory levels; labor relations; interest rates and currency exchange rates; inflation and deflation; energy prices; prices for agricultural commodities; housing starts and other construction activity; our ability to obtain financing or to refinance existing debt; a decline in the price of used vehicles; the resolution of pending litigation and investigations on a wide range of topics, including dealer and supplier litigation, follow-on private litigation in various jurisdictions after the settlement of the EU antitrust investigation announced July 19, 2016, intellectual property rights disputes, product warranty and defective product claims, and emissions and/or fuel economy regulatory and contractual issues; the Company’s pension plans and other postemployment obligations; political and civil unrest; volatility and deterioration of capital and financial markets, including further deterioration of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis, possible effects of Brexit, political evolutions in Turkey, terror attacks in Europe and elsewhere, and other similar risks and uncertainties and our success in managing the risks involved in the foregoing. Further information concerning the Company and its businesses, including factors that potentially could materially affect the Company’s financial results, is included in the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. Furthermore, in light of ongoing difficult macroeconomic conditions, both globally and in the industries in which we operate, it is particularly difficult to forecast our results, and any estimates or forecasts of particular periods that are provided in this report are uncertain. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We can give no assurance that the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Our outlook is based upon assumptions, which are sometimes based upon estimates and data received from third parties. Such estimates and data are often revised. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new developments or otherwise.

All future written and oral forward-looking statements by the Company or persons acting on the Company’s behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained herein or referred to above.
