Accounts Receivable Programs

The Company maintains accounts receivable facilities with various financial institutions, with committed and uncommitted facilities in the United States and a committed accounts receivable facility in Europe (collectively, "the     Programs"), which are both set to expire in November 2025. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company may sell certain eligible trade accounts receivable at any point in time, up to $900 million for the U.S. committed facility, and €500 million for the Europe committed facility. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company continues to service the receivables from the customer, but retains no interest in the receivables, and remits payment to the financial institutions. The Company also provides a guarantee to the financial institutions for the creditworthiness and collection of the receivables in satisfaction of the facility. See Note 14 for additional information related to guarantees. In 2023, the Company sold $112 million of receivables under the Programs ($391 million in 2022).

Beginning in 2023, the Company has access to an accounts receivable discounting facility that covers receivables generated from sales in EMEAI. Under the terms of the discounting facility, the Company retains no interest in the transferred receivables once sold and receivables are transferred with limited recourse. In 2023, the Company sold $91 million of receivables into the facility.
