3. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the presented periods, we completed acquisitions to support our Smart Industrial Operating Model and Leap Ambitions, which focus on advancing our capabilities in technology.

Acquisitions

2025 Acquisitions

In 2025, we acquired several small-scale businesses to advance the capabilities of our existing technology offerings, providing customers with a more comprehensive set of tools to generate and use data to make decisions that aim at improving profitability, efficiency, and sustainability. In addition, we acquired the remaining ownership interest of an equity method investment (see Note 25 for fair value measurement information). The combined

purchase price consideration for these acquisitions was $115, consisting of $101 cash, net of cash acquired, and $14 loan forgiven. The businesses were assigned to the PPA, SAT, and CF segments. Most of the purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated to goodwill and intangible assets.

2023 Acquisitions

In 2023, we acquired SparkAI Inc. (Spark AI) and Smart Apply, Inc. (Smart Apply) to accelerate the integration of smart technology innovation in our products. The combined cost of these acquisitions was $82, net of cash acquired of $2. Spark AI was assigned to the PPA segment, while Smart Apply was assigned to the SAT segment. Most of the purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated to goodwill.

Dispositions

2025 Disposition

In February 2025, we completed a transaction with Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco), for Bradesco to invest and become a 50% owner of our wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil, BJD. Bradesco contributed capital directly to BJD. The transaction resulted in the deconsolidation of BJD in the second quarter of 2025. BJD finances retail and wholesale loans for agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment and was included in our financial services segment. BJD was a part of our Brazil operations which is considered an integrated single foreign entity.

We retained a 50% equity interest in BJD, which was valued at the deconsolidation date at $362 based on the completed transaction with Bradesco and its amount of contributed capital. We are accounting for our investment in BJD using the equity method of accounting and results of its operations are reported in “Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates” (see Note 1). The related investments in unconsolidated affiliates and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates are reported in “Other assets” and “Other receivables,” respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

The major classes of the total assets and liabilities of BJD at the time of deconsolidation were as follows:

At the time of deconsolidation, the additional gain or loss was not significant. BJD was reclassified as held for sale in the third quarter of 2024 prior to its deconsolidation.

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents resulting from deconsolidation of BJD was recorded in other investing activities in the statements of consolidated cash flows. See Note 6 for information on non-cash transactions.

2023 Dispositions

In October 2023, we sold our roadbuilding business in Russia. At the time of the sale, total assets were $32, consisting primarily of restricted cash, total liabilities were $1, and the cumulative translation loss was $11. Total proceeds from the sale include $16 of cash and $8 of deferred consideration. A pretax and after-tax loss of $18 was recorded in “Other operating expenses” in the CF segment. As of November 2, 2025, our remaining investments in Russia were not material.

In March 2023, we sold our financial services business in Russia (registered in Russia as a leasing company) to Insight Investment Group. The total proceeds, net of restricted cash sold, were $36. The operations were included in the financial services operating segment through the date of sale. At the disposal date, the total assets were $31, consisting primarily of financing receivables, the total liabilities were $5, and the cumulative translation loss was $10. In the first quarter of 2023, we reversed the allowance for credit losses and recorded a valuation allowance on the assets held for sale in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” We did not incur additional gains or losses upon disposition.
