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. CNH Industrial has its corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its principal office in London, England, United Kingdom. The Company was formed on September 29, 2013 as a result of the business combination transaction between Fiat Industrial S.p.A. (“Fiat Industrial”) and its majority owned subsidiary 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 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 United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. All adjustments, consisting only 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, 2020. 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. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in uncertainties in the Company's business, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the financial statements including, but not limited to, future cash flows associated with goodwill, indefinite life intangibles, definite life intangibles, long-lived impairment tests, determination of discount rates and other assumptions for pension and other post-retirement benefit expense and income taxes. Changes in estimates are recorded in results of operations in the period during which the events or circumstances giving rise to such changes occur.

Certain financial information in this report has been presented by geographic area. Our geographical regions are: (1) North America; (2) Europe; (3) South America and (4) Rest of World. The geographic designations have the following meanings:
North America: United States, Canada and Mexico;
Europe: member countries of the European Union, European Free Trade Association, the United Kingdom, Ukraine, and Balkans;
South America: Central and South America, and the Caribbean Islands; and
Rest of World: Continental Asia (including Turkey and Russia), Oceania and member countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States, the African continent, and Middle East.
2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Adopted in 2021
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). This ASU eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Specifically, it eliminates the exception to (1) the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations, and income or a gain from other items; (2) the requirement to recognize a deferred tax liability for equity method investments when a foreign subsidiary becomes an equity method investment; (3) the ability not to recognize a deferred tax liability for a foreign subsidiary when a foreign equity method investment becomes a subsidiary; and (4) the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Not Yet Adopted
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions for applying
6


U.S. GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by Reference Rate Reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 can be adopted beginning as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 or any date thereafter. The Company has not adopted ASU 2020-04 as of March 31, 2021. ASU 2020-04 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
3. REVENUE
The following table summarizes revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

Total Revenues$7,473 $5,461 

Contract liabilities recorded in Other liabilities were $1,332 million and $1,381 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Contract liabilities primarily relate to extended warranties/maintenance and repair contracts, and transactions for the sale of vehicles with a buy-back commitment. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, revenues included $151 million and $145 million, respectively, relating to contract liabilities outstanding at the beginning of each period.
At March 31, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $2.3 billion ($2.2 billion as of December 31, 2020). The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 32% and 78% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 36 months, respectively (approximately 32% and 77% as of December 31, 2020), with the remaining recognized thereafter.
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.”
7


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 below include only those assets that can be used to settle obligations of the consolidated VIEs. The liabilities in the table below include third party liabilities of the consolidated VIEs for which creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company.

Total Assets$8,859 $9,677 
Debt$8,140 $8,835 
Total Liabilities$8,140 $8,835 

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company’s 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 per share is as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

On February 20, 2018, CNH Industrial announced that the United States Supreme Court ruled in its favor in Reese vs. CNH Industrial N.V. and CNH Industrial America LLC. The decision allowed CNH Industrial to terminate or modify various retiree healthcare benefits previously provided to certain UAW Union represented Company retirees. On April 16, 2018, CNH Industrial announced its determination to modify the benefits provided to the applicable retirees (“Benefit Modification”) to make them consistent with the benefits provided to current eligible CNH Industrial retirees who had been represented by the UAW. The Benefit Modification resulted in a reduction of the plan liability by $527 million. This amount will be amortized from Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI") to the income statement over approximately 4.5 years, which represents the average service period to attain eligibility conditions for active participants. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, $30 million and $30 million of amortization (“Benefit Modification Amortization”) was recorded as a pre-tax gain in Other, net, respectively.
7. INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were 28.2% and 30.3%, respectively. The lower 2021 effective tax rate was primarily due to the reduced impact, on a percentage basis, of discrete tax items, which increased the effective tax rates by approximately 3% and 5% in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
As in all financial reporting periods, the Company assessed the realizability of its deferred tax assets, which relate to multiple tax jurisdictions in all regions of the world. While no assessment changes occurred during the current period, it is possible that, within the next twelve months, assessment changes could occur and may have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. The jurisdictions where assessment changes are most likely to occur, which include the Company’s Brazilian industrial operations, are described in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The Company operates in many jurisdictions around the world and is routinely subject to income tax audits. As various ongoing audits are concluded, or as the applicable statutes of limitations expire, it is possible the Company’s amount of unrecognized tax benefits could change during the next twelve months. Those changes, however, are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, balance sheet, or cash flows.
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:
Agriculture 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 brands, as well as the STEYR, Kongskilde and Överum brands in Europe and the Miller brand, primarily in North America and Australia.
Construction designs, manufactures and distributes a full line of construction equipment including excavators, crawler dozers, graders, wheel loaders, backhoe loaders, skid steer loaders and compact track loaders. Construction equipment is sold under the CASE Construction Equipment and New Holland Construction brands.
Commercial and Specialty Vehicles designs, manufactures and distributes a full range of light, medium, and heavy vehicles for the transportation and distribution of goods under the IVECO brand, city-buses, commuter buses 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 distributes, under the FPT Industrial brand, a range of engines, transmission systems and axles for on- and off-road applications, as well as for marine and power generation.
Financial Services offers a range of financial products and 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 brand dealers. In addition, Financial Services provides wholesale financing to CNH Industrial brand dealers. Wholesale financing consists primarily of floor plan financing and allows the dealers to purchase and maintain a representative inventory of products. Financial Services also provides trade receivables factoring services to CNH Industrial companies.
The activities carried out by the four industrial segments Agriculture, Construction, Commercial and Specialty Vehicles, and Powertrain, as well as corporate functions, are collectively referred to as "Industrial Activities".
9


Revenues for each reported segment are those directly generated by or attributable to the segment as a result of its 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.
With reference to Industrial Activities' segments, the CODM assesses segment performance and makes decisions about resource allocation based upon Adjusted EBIT. The Company believes Adjusted EBIT more fully reflects Industrial Activities segments' inherent profitability. Adjusted EBIT of Industrial Activities is defined as net income (loss) before: Income taxes, Financial Services' results, Industrial Activities’ interest expenses (net), foreign exchange gains/losses, finance and non-service component of pension and other post-employment benefit costs, restructuring expenses, and certain non-recurring items. In particular, non-recurring items are specifically disclosed items that management considers to be rare or discrete events that are infrequent in nature and not reflective of on-going operational activities.
With reference to Financial Services, the CODM assesses the performance of the segment and makes decisions about resource allocation on the basis of net income prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The following table includes the reconciliation of Adjusted EBIT for Industrial Activities to net income, the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

9. RECEIVABLES
Financing Receivables, net
A summary of financing receivables as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is as follows:

March 31, 2021December 31, 2020
(in millions)
Retail$8,976 $9,257 
Wholesale8,706 9,127 
Other68 73 
Total$17,750 $18,457 

The Company assesses and monitors the credit quality of its portfolio based on whether a receivable is classified as Performing or Non-Performing. Financing receivables are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not yet been received as of the contractual payment due date. Delinquency is reported in financing receivables greater than 30 days past due. Non-performing financing receivables represent loans for which the Company has ceased accruing finance income. These receivables are generally 90 days delinquent. Finance income for non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrued interest is charged-off to Interest income. Interest income charged-off was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Accrual of finance income is resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collections are reasonably assured. As the terms for retail financing receivables are greater than one year, the performing/non-performing information is presented by year of origination for North America, South America and Rest of World.

At March 31, 2021, the allowance for credit losses includes a continued reassessment of the outlook by region regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on credit conditions. The Company continues to monitor the situation and will update the macroeconomic factors and qualitative factors in future periods, as warranted. The provision for credit losses is included in selling, general, and administrative expenses.
At both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020, the allowance for credit losses included a build of reserves primarily due to the expectation of deteriorating credit conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the adoption of ASC 326.

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 that is 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.
14


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 the 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.
Before removing a receivable from TDR classification, a review of the borrower is conducted. If concerns persist about the future ability of the borrower to meet its obligations based on a credit review, the TDR classification is not removed from the receivable.
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had 218 retail and finance lease contracts classified as TDRs in North America where a court has determined the concession. The pre-modification value of these contracts was $6 million and the post-modification value was $6 million. Additionally, the Company had 356 accounts with a balance of $24 million in North America undergoing bankruptcy proceedings where a concession has not yet been determined. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had 289 retail and finance lease contracts classified as TDRs in North America where a court has determined the concession. The pre-modification value was $9 million and the post-modification value was $8 million. Additionally, the Company had 334 accounts with a balance of $17 million in North America undergoing bankruptcy proceedings where a concession has not yet been determined. As the outcome of the bankruptcy cases is determined by the 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 twelve months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had retail and finance lease receivable contracts classified as TDRs in Europe. The pre-modification value was $88 million and $79 million, respectively, and the post-modification value was $81 million and $72 million, respectively. 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 March 31, 2021 and 2020.
As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s wholesale TDR 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.
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.

Lessee
The Company has mainly operating lease contracts for buildings, plant and machinery, vehicles, IT equipment and machinery.
Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the balance sheet. For these leases the Company recognized, on a straight-line basis over the lease term, lease expense of $2 million and $3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 the Company incurred operating lease expenses of $38 million and $35 million, respectively.
At March 31, 2021, the Company has recorded approximately $429 million of right-of-use assets and $428 million of related lease liability included in Other Assets and Other Liabilities, respectively. At March 31, 2021, the weighted average remaining lease term (calculated on the basis of the remaining lease term and the lease liability balance for each lease) and the weighted average discount rate for operating leases were 6.4 years and 3.1%, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, leased assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations were $26 million and $16 million, respectively. The operating cash outflow for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease obligations was $40 million and $36 million as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if a triggering event occurs that would indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than book value. CNH Industrial performed its most recent annual impairment review as of December 31, 2020. At that date, the estimated fair values of the Agriculture and Financial Services reporting units exceeded the carrying value by approximately 270% and 51%, respectively.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
As a global company with a diverse business portfolio, CNH Industrial in the ordinary course of business is exposed to numerous legal risks, including, without limitation, 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, competition law and other investigations and environmental claims. 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 fines 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 66 non-owned U.S. sites at which regulated materials allegedly generated by CNH Industrial were released or disposed (“Waste Sites”). Of the Waste Sites, 16 are on the National Priority List (“NPL”) promulgated pursuant to CERCLA. For 60 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 settlement agreements can be reopened under certain circumstances, the Company’s potential liability for remediation costs associated with the 66 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 March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, environmental reserves of approximately $31 million and $32 million, respectively, were established to
19


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
Follow-up on Damages Claims: in 2011 Iveco S.p.A., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, active in the commercial vehicle business, and its competitors in the European Union were subject to an investigation by the European Commission (the “Commission”) into certain business practices in the European Union (in the period 1997-2011) in relation to M&H trucks. On July 19, 2016, the Commission announced a settlement with Iveco. Following the settlement, the Company has been named as defendant in private litigation commenced in various European jurisdictions and Israel by customers and other third parties, either acting individually or as part of a wider group or class of claimants. Most of these claims remain at an early stage. Further, on the basis of the letters issued by a significant number of customers indicating that they may commence proceedings in the future, CNH Industrial expects to face further claims based on the same legal grounds in the same and other jurisdictions. The extent and outcome of these claims cannot be predicted at this time.
FPT Emissions Investigation: on July 22, 2020, a number of CNH Industrial's offices in Europe were visited by investigators in the context of a request for assistance by the public prosecutors of Frankfurt am Main, Germany and Turin, Italy in relation to alleged noncompliance of two engine models produced by FPT Industrial S.p.A., a wholly owned subsidiary of CNH Industrial, installed in certain Ducato (a vehicle distributed by the Stellantis group) and Iveco Daily vehicles. CNH Industrial immediately made itself available to these investigators and is providing its full cooperation to properly address the requests received. Although at the date hereof CNH Industrial has no evidence of any wrongdoing, CNH Industrial cannot predict at this time the extent and outcome of these requests and directly or indirectly related legal proceedings.
Guarantees
CNH Industrial provided guarantees on the debt or commitments of third parties and performance guarantees on non-consolidated affiliates as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 totaling of $531 million and $615 million, respectively.
16. 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 use observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the items are classified in Level 2.
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.
20


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 enter into derivative or other financial instruments for speculative purposes. The credit and market risk related to derivatives is reduced through diversification among various counterparties, utilizing mandatory termination clauses and/or collateral support agreements. Derivative instruments are generally classified as Level 2 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 Derivatives
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. 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 $7.0 billion and $6.3 billion at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 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.
Interest rate derivatives that have been designated as fair value hedge relationships have been used by CNH Industrial to mitigate the volatility in the fair value of existing fixed rate bonds and medium-term notes due to changes in floating interest rate benchmarks. 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 floating interest rate benchmarks.
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. Net gains and losses on these instruments were insignificant for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
All of CNH Industrial’s interest rate derivatives outstanding as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 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 $7.4 billion and $7.5 billion at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
As a result of the reform and replacement of specific benchmark interest rates, uncertainty remains regarding the timing and exact nature of those changes. At March 31, 2021, the notional amount of hedging instruments that could be affected by the reform of benchmark interest rates is $830 million.
21


With regard to hedge accounting, the Company continues to monitor significant developments in order to assess the potential future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the hedging relationships in place and to update its estimates concerning whether forecasted transactions can still be considered probable of occurring.

The line item “Investments at fair value through profit & loss” includes the fair value of the approximately 6.5% investment held by CNH Industrial in Nikola Corporation ("Nikola"), made in the context of the strategic partnership with Nikola to industrialize fuel-cell and battery electric Heavy-Duty trucks. The market price of Nikola shares on the NASDAQ (ticker "NKLA") as of March 31, 2021 was $13.89, determining a value of $357 million for the 25,661,448 shares held by CNH Industrial through its fully-owned subsidiary Iveco S.p.A. As a consequence, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded a pre-tax loss of $35 million ($35 million after tax), from the remeasurement at fair value of the investment in Nikola, recorded in the line item “Other, net”.

18. RELATED PARTY INFORMATION
As of March 31, 2021 CNH Industrial’s related parties were primarily EXOR N.V. and the companies that EXOR N.V. controlled or had a significant influence over including Stellantis N.V. (formerly Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. which, effective January 16, 2021, merged with Peugeot S.A. by means of a cross-border legal merger) and its subsidiaries and affiliates ("Stellantis"). As of March 31, 2021, EXOR N.V. held 42.5% 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 owned by EXOR N.V. to (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding common shares and special voting shares of CNH Industrial as of March 31, 2021. 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. As of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, among other things, EXOR N.V. managed a portfolio that includes the investment in Stellantis. CNH Industrial did not enter into any significant transactions with EXOR N.V. during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
In connection with the establishment of Fiat Industrial (now CNH Industrial) through the demerger from Fiat (which was subsequently merged into Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. which is now Stellantis), the two companies 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 Stellantis provide services 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. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, Stellantis subsidiaries provided CNH Industrial with administrative services such as accounting, 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 sold engines and light commercial vehicles to and purchased engine blocks and other components from Stellantis subsidiaries. Furthermore, CNH Industrial and Stellantis engage in other minor transactions in the ordinary course of business.

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. CNH Industrial has its corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its principal office in London, England, United Kingdom. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “CNH Industrial” and the “Company” refer to CNH Industrial and its subsidiaries.
The Company has five reportable segments reflecting the five businesses directly managed by CNH Industrial N.V., consisting of: (i) Agriculture, which designs, produces and sells agricultural equipment (ii) Construction, which designs, produces and sells construction equipment (iii) Commercial and Specialty Vehicles, which designs, produces and sell trucks, commercial and specialty vehicles, and buses, (iv) Powertrain, which designs, 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 customers acquiring our products. The Company’s worldwide agricultural equipment, construction equipment, commercial and specialty 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, 2020 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 geographical regions are: (1) North America; (2) Europe; (3) South America and (4) Rest of World. The geographic designations have the following meanings:
North America: United States, Canada and Mexico;
Europe: member countries of the European Union, European Free Trade Association, the United Kingdom, Ukraine, and Balkans;
South America: Central and South America, and the Caribbean Islands; and
Rest of World: Continental Asia (including Turkey and Russia), Oceania and member countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States, the African continent, and Middle East.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
CNH Industrial monitors its operations through the use of several non-GAAP financial measures. CNH Industrial’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding its operating results and enhance the readers’ ability to assess CNH Industrial’s financial performance and financial position. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to identify operational trends, as well as to make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions as they provide additional transparency with respect to our core operations. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP or EU-IFRS 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 or EU-IFRS.
Our primary non-GAAP financial measures are defined as follows:
Adjusted EBIT of Industrial Activities
Adjusted EBIT of Industrial Activities is defined as net income (loss) before income taxes, Financial Services’ results, Industrial Activities’ interest expenses, net, foreign exchange gains/losses, finance and non-service component of pension and other post-employment benefit costs, restructuring expenses, and certain non-recurring items. In particular, non-recurring items are specifically disclosed items that management considers rare or discrete events that are infrequent in nature and not reflective of on-going operational activities.
Net Cash (Debt) and Net Cash (Debt) of Industrial Activities
Net Cash (Debt) is defined as total debt less intersegment notes receivable, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other current financial assets (primarily current securities, short-term deposits and investments towards high-credit rating counterparties) and derivative hedging debt. CNH Industrial provides the reconciliation of Net Cash (Debt) to Total (Debt), which is the most directly comparable measure included in the 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 Cash (Debt) of Industrial Activities.
28


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.
Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities
Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities (or Industrial Free Cash Flow) refers to Industrial Activities, only, and is computed as consolidated cash flow from operating activities less: cash flow from operating activities of Financial Services; investments of Industrial Activities in assets sold under buy-back commitments, assets under operating leases, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; change in derivatives hedging debt of Industrial Activities; as well as other changes and intersegment eliminations.
A. Operating Results
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 “Supplemental Information” within this section, where we present supplemental consolidating data split by Industrial Activities and Financial Services. Transactions between Industrial Activities and Financial Services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated data.
COVID-19 Effects and Actions
The COVID-19 pandemic and the related actions of governments and other authorities to contain COVID-19 spread continue to affect CNH Industrial’s business, results, cash flow and outlook. Many governments in countries where the Company operates, designated part of our businesses as essential critical infrastructure businesses. This designation allows us to operate in support of our dealers and customers to the extent possible. CNH Industrial also continues to prioritize the health, safety and well-being of its employees.
Rising demand is adding pressure to our supply chain, requiring diligent coordination to keep our production at desired levels. Adverse market trends in raw materials (particularly steel), freight and logistics costs have impacted our product cost performance in the first quarter of 2021.
We remain cautious about future impacts on CNH Industrial’s end-markets and business operations of restrictions on social interactions and business operations to limit the resurgence of the pandemic. CNH Industrial is closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business, its employees and the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows in 2021. For additional risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic, see "Item 3 - Key Information - D. Risk Factors - COVID-19 Risks" in our 2020 annual report on Form 20-F.
Planned Spin-off of On-Highway Business
The Company has confirmed its intention to enhance its customer focus through the separation of its "On-Highway" (commercial and specialty vehicles and powertrain) and "Off-Highway" (agriculture and construction) businesses in early 2022. The separation is expected to be effected through the spin-off of CNH Industrial N.V.’s equity interest in "On-Highway" to CNH Industrial N.V. shareholders. Execution of the transaction requires further work on structure, management, governance and other significant matters as well as appropriate corporate approvals (including approval of our stockholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders) and satisfaction of other conditions. CNH Industrial can make no assurance that any spin-off transaction will ultimately occur, or, if one does occur, its terms or timing.

Cost of goods sold were $5,733 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with $4,414 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. As a percentage of net sales of Industrial Activities, cost of goods sold was 81.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2021 (88.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2020), as a result of positive fixed cost absorption, partially offset by higher input costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $540 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 (7.2% of total revenues), up $14 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 (9.6% of total revenues).

Other, net
Other, net expenses were $217 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and includes a pre-tax gain of $30 million ($22 million after-tax) as a result of the Benefit Modification Amortization over approximately 4.5 years of the $527 million positive impact from the 2018 U.S. healthcare plan modification, a pre-tax loss of $35 million ($35 million after-tax) from the remeasurement at fair value of the investment in Nikola Corporation and foreign exchange losses of $18 million.

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $157 million compared to income tax benefit of $23 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were 28.2% and 30.3%, respectively. The lower 2021 effective tax rate was primarily due to the reduced impact, on a percentage basis, of discrete tax items, which increased the effective tax rates by approximately 3% and 5% in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Excluding the pre-tax and tax impacts of the remeasurement to fair value of the investment in Nikola Corporation, restructuring charges, the Benefit Modification Amortization and charges for retiring certain debt, the effective tax rate was 25% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Net Income
Net income of Financial Services was $91 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $11 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily as a result of lower risk costs, favorable retail margin in North America and lower losses on used equipment sales.

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.
B. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following discussion of liquidity and capital resources principally focuses on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and our condensed consolidated statement of financial position. 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. CNH Industrial, focusing on cash preservation and leveraging its good access to funding, continues to maintain solid financial strength and liquidity.
Cash Flow Analysis
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, consolidated cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased by $1,662 million due to debt repayment of $1.6 billion (including $0.4 billion of notes repurchase) and negative foreign currency impact offset by cash generated by operating activities.
At March 31, 2021, Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash were $7,059 million ($8,785 million at December 31, 2020) and $908 million ($844 million at December 31, 2020), respectively. Undrawn medium-term unsecured committed facilities were $5,755 million ($6,148 million at December 31, 2020) and other current financial assets were $164 million ($94 million at December 31, 2020). At March 31, 2021, the aggregate of Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, undrawn medium-term unsecured committed facilities and other current financial assets, which we consider to constitute our principal liquid assets (or "available liquidity"), totaled $13,886 million ($15,871 million at December 31, 2020).
Net Cash from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2021 totaled $372 million and comprised the following elements:
$425 million net income;
plus $287 million in non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization ($151 million excluding assets sold with buy back commitments and equipment on operating leases);
plus $8 million in cost of repurchase of notes;
plus change in deferred income taxes of $41 million and change in provisions of $24 million;
plus $78 million in Other non-cash items primarily due to the remeasurement at fair value of the investment in Nikola Corporation, share based payments, write downs of assets under operating leases and assets sold under buyback commitments, and writedowns of financial assets;
less $509 million in change in working capital.
In the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in operating activities during the year was $532 million primarily as a result of $623 million related to the seasonal increase in working capital.
Net Cash from Investing Activities
Net cash used by investing activities was $190 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and was primarily due to expenditures for assets under operating leases and assets sold under buyback commitments ($297 million) and expenditures for Property, Plant, and Equipment and intangible assets ($71 million) offset by net reductions in retail receivables ($114 million).
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in investing activities ($78 million) was primarily due to expenditures for assets under operating leases and assets sold under buyback commitments ($256 million) partially offset by net reductions in retail receivables ($109 million).
Net Cash from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $1,594 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $195 million used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2020. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was primarily due to a net reduction in long-term debt.

(1)    Total (Debt) of Industrial Activities includes Intersegment notes payable to Financial Services of $1,148 million and $1,017 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Total (Debt) of Financial Services includes Intersegment notes payable to Industrial Activities of $1,169 million and $856 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities was a negative $371 million as the strong performance of the segments was more than offset by the seasonal increase in working capital. The seasonal increase in working capital was down approximately 30% from the prior year as the Company continued to manage working capital to expected retail demand.
