Trade Receivables Securitization Program
Bunge and certain of its subsidiaries participate in a trade receivables securitization program (the "Program") with a financial institution, as administrative agent, and certain commercial paper conduit purchasers and committed purchasers (collectively, the "Purchasers"). Koninklijke Bunge B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Bunge, acts as master servicer, responsible for servicing and collecting the accounts receivable for the Program. The Program is designed to enhance Bunge’s financial flexibility by providing an additional source of liquidity for its operations.
The Program provides for funding of up to $1.5 billion and from time to time with the consent of the administrative agent, Bunge may request one or more of the existing committed purchasers or new committed purchasers to increase the total commitments by an amount not to exceed $1 billion pursuant to an accordion provision under the Program. The Program will terminate on May 17, 2031; however, each committed purchaser's commitment to purchase trade receivables under the Program will terminate earlier on December 16, 2025, with a feature that permits Bunge to request 364-day extensions. The Program includes sustainability provisions, pursuant to which the applicable margin will be increased or decreased based on Bunge's performance relative to certain sustainability targets, including, but not limited to, science-based targets that define Bunge's climate goals within its operations and a commitment to a deforestation-free supply chain in 2025.
Under the Program's pledge structure, Bunge Securitization B.V. ("BSBV"), a consolidated bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, transfers certain trade receivables to the Purchasers in exchange for a cash payment up to the aggregate size of the Program. BSBV also retains ownership of a population of unsold receivables. BSBV agrees to guarantee the collection of sold receivables and grants a lien to the administrative agent on all unsold receivables. Collections on unsold receivables and guarantee payments are classified as operating activities in Bunge’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
