(Cautionary Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995)

Mattel is including this Cautionary Statement to caution investors and qualify for the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") for forward-looking statements. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. The use of words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "confident that," "believes," and "targeted," among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on currently available operating, financial, economic, and other information and assumptions, and are subject to a number of significant risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond Mattel's control, could cause actual future results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements, and are currently, and in the future may be, amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Specific factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) potential impacts of and uncertainty regarding the COVID-19 pandemic (and actions taken in response to it by governments, businesses, and individuals) on Mattel's business operations, financial results and financial position and on the global economy, including its impact on Mattel's sales; (ii) Mattel’s ability to design, develop, produce, manufacture, source, ship, and distribute products on a timely and cost-effective basis; (iii) sufficient interest in and demand for the products and entertainment Mattel offers by retail customers and consumers to profitably recover Mattel’s costs; (iv) downturns in economic conditions affecting Mattel’s markets which can negatively impact retail customers and consumers, and which can result in lower employment levels and lower consumer disposable income and spending, including lower spending on purchases of Mattel’s products; (v) other factors which can lower discretionary consumer spending, such as higher costs for fuel and food, drops in the value of homes or other consumer assets, and high levels of consumer debt; (vi) potential difficulties or delays Mattel may experience in implementing cost savings and efficiency enhancing initiatives; (vii) other economic and public health conditions or regulatory changes in the markets in which Mattel and its customers and suppliers operate, which could create delays or increase Mattel’s costs, such as higher commodity prices, labor costs or transportation costs, or outbreaks of disease; (viii) inflation and currency fluctuations, including movements in foreign exchange rates, which can lower Mattel’s net revenues and earnings, and significantly impact Mattel’s costs; (ix) the concentration of Mattel’s customers, potentially increasing the negative impact to Mattel of difficulties experienced by any of Mattel’s customers, such as bankruptcies or liquidations or a general lack of success, or changes in their purchasing or selling patterns; (x) the inventory policies of Mattel’s retail customers, as well as the concentration of Mattel’s revenues in the second half of the year, which coupled with reliance by retailers on quick response inventory management techniques, increases the risk of underproduction, overproduction, and shipping delays; (xi) legal, reputational, and financial risks related to security breaches or cyberattacks; (xii) work disruptions, including as a result of supply chain disruption such as plant and port closures, which may impact Mattel’s ability to manufacture or deliver product in a timely and cost-effective manner; (xiii) the impact of competition on revenues, margins, and other aspects of Mattel’s business, including the ability to offer products that consumers choose to buy instead of competitive products, the ability to secure, maintain, and renew popular licenses from licensors of entertainment properties, and the ability to attract and retain talented employees and adapt to evolving workplace models; (xiv) the risk of product recalls or product liability suits and costs associated with product safety regulations; (xv) changes in laws or regulations in the United States and/or in other major markets, such as China, in which Mattel operates, including, without limitation, with respect to taxes, tariffs, trade policies, or product safety, which may increase Mattel’s product costs and other costs of doing business, and reduce Mattel’s earnings; (xvi) business disruptions or other unforeseen impacts due to economic instability, political instability, civil unrest, armed hostilities (including the impact of the war in Ukraine), natural and man-made disasters, or other catastrophic events; (xvii) failure to realize the planned benefits from any investments or acquisitions made by Mattel; (xviii) the impact of other market conditions or third party actions or approvals, including those that result in any significant failure, inadequacy, or interruption from vendors or outsourcers, which could reduce demand for Mattel’s products, delay or increase the cost of implementation of Mattel’s programs, or alter Mattel’s actions and reduce actual results; (xix) changes in financing markets or the inability of Mattel to obtain financing on attractive terms; (xx) the impact of litigation, arbitration, or regulatory decisions or settlement actions; (xxi) Mattel's ability to navigate regulatory frameworks in connection with new areas of investment, product development, or other business activities, such as non-fungible tokens and cryptocurrency; (xxii) uncertainty from the expected discontinuance of London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") and transition to any other interest rate benchmark; and (xxiii) other risks and uncertainties detailed in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in Mattel's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K"), Item 1A "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and subsequent periodic filings. Mattel does not update forward-looking statements and expressly disclaims any obligation to do so, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.     Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only those of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and interim results of Mattel, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Mattel") as of and for the periods presented have been included.

The December 31, 2021 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements; however, the accompanying interim notes to the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP. As Mattel's business is seasonal, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with Mattel's consolidated financial statements and related notes in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Mattel identified a misstatement in its accounting for inventory tooling expenses, which were expensed to cost of sales rather than first being capitalized into the cost of inventory, which resulted in an understatement of inventory balances and a misstatement of cost of sales. Mattel also identified a misstatement related to the timing of disbursements for certain capital expenditures, which resulted in a cash flow misclassification between operating activities and investing activities. Mattel evaluated the misstatements and concluded that the misstatements were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to its current or previously issued consolidated financial statements.

To correct the immaterial misstatements, during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Mattel elected to revise its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for each of the three years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 and its unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2021, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020. The revision of the historical consolidated financial statements also includes the correction of other immaterial misstatements in its consolidated statement of operations that Mattel had previously recorded as out of period adjustments, as well as other previously identified balance sheet misclassifications. Mattel had previously determined that these misstatements did not, either individually or in the aggregate, result in a material misstatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements and reached the same conclusion when aggregating with the recently identified misstatements. Further information regarding the misstatements and related revision is included in "Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements— Revision for Immaterial Misstatements."

Mattel presented the revision of its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 in connection with the filing of its 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Mattel is presenting the revision of its previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2.     Accounts Receivable

Mattel estimates current expected credit losses based on collection history and management’s assessment of the current economic trends, business environment, customers’ financial condition, and accounts receivable aging that may impact the level of future credit losses. Accounts receivable are net of allowances for credit losses of $13.1 million, $13.1 million, and $10.7 million as of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

	$	451,981	$	451,001	$	455,966

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel announced the planned consolidation and integration of the American Girl corporate offices and distribution center, located in Middleton, Wisconsin, and committed to a plan to dispose of the land and buildings. These assets meet the held for sale criteria and are actively being marketed for sale. The net book value of the land and buildings is $9.4 million as of March 31, 2022, and is included within property, plant and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheet within the American Girl segment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel completed the sale of a manufacturing plant based in Mexico, which included land and buildings, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $15.8 million.

5.     Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, which are at the operating segment level, for the purpose of evaluating whether goodwill is impaired. Mattel’s reporting units are: (i) North America, (ii) International, and (iii) American Girl. Components of the operating segments have been aggregated into a single reporting unit as the components have similar economic characteristics. The similar economic characteristics include the nature of the products, the nature of the production processes, the customers, and the manner in which the products are distributed. Mattel tests its goodwill for impairment annually in the third quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value.

The change in the carrying amount of goodwill by operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is shown below. Brand-specific goodwill held by foreign subsidiaries is allocated to the North America segment, thereby causing a foreign currency translation impact.

7.     Seasonal Financing

On December 20, 2017, Mattel entered into a syndicated facility agreement, which was subsequently amended in 2018, 2019, and 2021 (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"), as a borrower (in such capacity, the "Borrower") and guarantor thereunder, along with certain of the Borrower's domestic and foreign subsidiaries as additional borrowers and/or guarantors thereunder.

On March 19, 2021, Mattel entered into the fourth amendment to the Credit Agreement, which amended certain terms, including, but not limited to, certain components of the borrowing base, a reduction of the aggregate principal amount of the senior secured revolving credit facilities from $1.60 billion to $1.40 billion and an extension of the maturity date from November 20, 2022 to March 19, 2024.

The senior secured revolving credit facilities consist of (i) an asset based lending facility with aggregate commitments up to $1.11 billion, subject to borrowing base capacity, secured by substantially all of the accounts receivable and inventory of the Borrower and certain of its subsidiaries who are borrowers and/or guarantors under the Credit Agreement, as well as (ii) a revolving credit facility with $294.0 million in aggregate commitments secured by certain fixed assets and intellectual property of the U.S. borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and equity interests in certain borrower and guarantor subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement.

Any borrowings under the senior secured revolving credit facilities are (i) limited by jurisdiction-specific borrowing base calculations based on the sum of specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain fixed assets and intellectual property, as applicable, minus the amount of any applicable reserves, and (ii) bear interest at a floating rate, which can be either, at the Borrower's option, (a) an adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% per annum or (b) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75% per annum, in each case, such applicable margins to be determined based on the Borrower's average borrowing availability remaining under the senior secured revolving credit facilities.

12

In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the senior secured revolving credit facilities, the Borrower is required to pay (i) an unused line fee based on the average daily unused portion of the senior secured revolving credit facilities, (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee based on a percentage of the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit, and (iii) certain other customary fees and expenses of the lenders and agents.

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and no foreign short-term borrowings outstanding. As of March 31, 2021, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and $0.9 million of foreign short-term borrowings outstanding. As of December 31, 2021, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and no foreign short-term borrowings outstanding. Outstanding letters of credit under the senior secured revolving credit facilities totaled approximately $10 million, $11 million, and $10 million as of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is a material agreement, and failure to comply with its covenants may result in an event of default under the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facilities. If Mattel were to default under the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facilities, its ability to meet its seasonal financing requirements could be adversely affected.

Total long-term debt	$	2,322,150	$	2,837,732	$	2,570,992

On March 19, 2021, Mattel issued (i) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and (ii) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" and, together with the 2026 Notes, the "Notes"). The 2026 Notes will mature on April 1, 2026 and the 2029 Notes will mature on April 1, 2029, unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their respective terms. The Notes are guaranteed by Mattel’s existing and, subject to certain exceptions, future wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee Mattel’s senior secured revolving credit facilities or certain other indebtedness.

The net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem $1.225 billion in aggregate principal amount of Mattel’s outstanding 6.750% Senior Notes due December 2025 (the "2025 Notes") and pay related prepayment premiums and transaction fees and expenses. As a result of the partial redemption of the 2025 Notes, Mattel incurred a loss on extinguishment of $83.2 million, comprised of $62.0 million of prepayment premium costs and a $21.2 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2021.

On July 1, 2021, Mattel redeemed the remaining outstanding $275 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes. As a result of the redemption, Mattel incurred a loss on extinguishment of $18.5 million, comprised of $14.0 million of prepayment premium costs and a $4.5 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the third quarter of 2021.

(a)The amortization of prior service credit and recognized actuarial loss are included in the computation of net periodic benefit cost. Refer to "Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Employee Benefit Plans" for additional information regarding Mattel's net periodic benefit cost.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel adjusted accumulated other comprehensive loss by $6.4 million in relation to previously recorded available-for-sale equity securities. This amount was adjusted in order to account for such securities in a manner consistent with ASC 321, Investments—Equity Securities. The adjustment includes $3.6 million of accumulated other comprehensive loss reclassified to other non-operating expense (income) in the statement of operations and $2.8 million reclassified to retained earnings in the statement of stockholders' equity. The adjustment, including tax effect, was immaterial to the financial statements.

Currency Translation Adjustments

Mattel's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The translation of its net investments in subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies subjects Mattel to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in its results of operations and financial position. Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at fiscal period-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at weighted-average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal period. The resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders' equity. Currency translation adjustments resulted in a net gain of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to the strengthening of the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, and the Chilean peso against the U.S. dollar, offset by the weakening of the British pound sterling and the Russian ruble against the U.S. dollar. Currency translation adjustments resulted in a net loss of $28.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to the weakening of the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Euro, and Turkish lira against the U.S. dollar.

11.     Foreign Currency Transaction Exposure

Currency exchange rate fluctuations impact Mattel's results of operations and cash flows. Mattel's currency transaction exposures include gains and losses realized on unhedged inventory purchases and unhedged receivables and payables balances that are denominated in a currency other than the applicable functional currency. Gains and losses on unhedged inventory purchases and other transactions associated with operating activities are recorded in the components of operating income in the consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses on unhedged intercompany loans and advances are recorded as a component of other non-operating expense (income), net in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the currency exchange rate changes. Transactions denominated in the Chinese yuan, Euro, Russian ruble, and Mexican peso, were the primary transactions that caused foreign currency transaction exposure for Mattel during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

15

Currency transaction losses included in the consolidated statements of operations are as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021		Statements of Operations Classification

Currency transaction (losses)	(6,444)		(3,308)		Other non-operating income/expense, net
Currency transaction (losses), net	$	(5,982)	$	(6,880)

12.     Derivative Instruments

Mattel seeks to mitigate its exposure to foreign currency transaction risk by monitoring its foreign currency transaction exposure for the year and partially hedging such exposure using foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Mattel uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts as cash flow hedges primarily to hedge its purchases and sales of inventory denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts generally have maturity dates of up to 24 months. These derivative instruments have been designated as effective cash flow hedges, whereby the unsettled hedges are reported in Mattel's consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with changes in the fair value of the hedges reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI"). Realized gains and losses for these contracts are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the inventory is sold to customers. Mattel uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge intercompany loans and advances denominated in foreign currencies. Due to the short-term nature of the contracts involved, Mattel does not use hedge accounting for these contracts, and as such, changes in fair value are recorded in the period of change in the consolidated statements of operations. Mattel utilizes derivative contracts to hedge certain purchases of commodities, which were not material. As of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021, Mattel held foreign currency forward exchange contracts and other commodity derivative instruments, with notional amounts of approximately $953 million, $952 million, and $925 million, respectively.

13.     Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present information about Mattel's assets and liabilities measured and reported in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

•Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.

•Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity, and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

(a)The fair value of the foreign currency forward exchange contracts and other commodity derivative instruments is based on dealer quotes of market forward rates and reflects the amount that Mattel would receive or pay at their maturity dates for contracts involving the same notional amounts, currencies, and maturity dates.

(b)The fair value of the equity securities are based on the quoted price on an active public exchange.

Other Financial Instruments

Mattel's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt. The fair values of these instruments, excluding long-term debt, approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature. Cash and equivalents are classified as Level 1 and all other financial instruments are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The estimated fair value of Mattel's long-term debt was $2.65 billion (compared to a carrying value of $2.60 billion) as of March 31, 2022, $3.05 billion (compared to a carrying value of $2.88 billion) as of March 31, 2021, and $2.82 billion (compared to a carrying value of $2.60 billion) as of December 31, 2021. The estimated fair values have been calculated based on broker quotes or rates for the same or similar instruments and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

(a)For the three months ended March 31, 2022, share-based awards totaling 11.1 million, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share because their effect would be antidilutive. Mattel was in a net loss position for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and, accordingly, all outstanding share-based awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because their effect would be antidilutive.

15.    Employee Benefit Plans

Mattel and certain of its subsidiaries have qualified and nonqualified retirement plans covering substantially all employees of these companies, which are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements–Employee Benefit Plans" in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel made cash contributions totaling approximately $1 million related to its defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans. During the remainder of 2022, Mattel expects to make additional cash contributions of approximately $5 million.

16.     Share-Based Payments

Mattel has various stock compensation plans, which are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Share-Based Payments" in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the Mattel, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Equity and Long-Term Compensation Plan, Mattel has the ability to grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance RSUs ("performance awards"), dividend equivalent rights, and shares of common stock to officers, employees, and other persons providing services to Mattel. Stock options are granted with exercise prices at the fair market value of Mattel's common stock on the applicable grant date and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Stock options, RSUs, and performance awards generally provide for vesting over, or at the end of, a period of three years from the date of grant.

As of March 31, 2022, two long-term incentive programs were in place with the following performance cycles: (i) a January 1, 2020–December 31, 2022 performance cycle and (ii) a January 1, 2021–December 31, 2023 performance cycle.

Compensation expense, included within other selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, related to stock options, RSUs, and performance awards is as follows:

As of March 31, 2022, total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based payments totaled $81.0 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

Mattel uses treasury shares purchased under its share repurchase program to satisfy stock option exercises and the vesting of RSUs and performance awards. Cash received for stock option exercises, net of taxes, was $13.9 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

18.     Restructuring Charges

Optimizing for Growth (formerly Capital Light)

In February 2021, Mattel announced the Optimizing for Growth program, a multi-year cost savings program that integrates and expands upon the previously announced Capital Light program, which commenced in 2019 (the "Program").

In connection with the Program, Mattel recorded severance and other restructuring costs in the following cost and expense categories within the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively:

	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021
	(In thousands)
Cost of sales (a)	$	2,669	$	1,932
Other selling and administrative expenses (b)	6,414		5,710
	$	9,083	$	7,642

(a)Severance and other restructuring costs recorded within cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations include charges associated with the consolidation of manufacturing facilities.

(b)Severance and other restructuring costs recorded within other selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations are included in corporate and other expense in "Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Segment Information."

The following tables summarize Mattel's severance and other restructuring charges activity related to the Program:

	Liability at December 31, 2021		Charges (a)		Payments/Utilization		Liability at March 31, 2022
	(In thousands)
Severance	$	12,411	$	3,518	$	(3,901)	$	12,028
Other restructuring charges	2,834		5,565		(5,178)		3,221
	$	15,245	$	9,083	$	(9,079)	$	15,249

	Liability at December 31, 2020		Charges (a)		Payments/Utilization		Liability at March 31, 2021
	(In thousands)
Severance	$	5,294	$	4,342	$	(1,405)	$	8,231
Other restructuring charges	30		3,300		(3,071)		259
	$	5,324	$	7,642	$	(4,476)	$	8,490

(a) Other restructuring charges consist primarily of charges associated with the consolidation of manufacturing facilities                              and commercial and corporate functions.

22

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel had recorded cumulative severance and other restructuring charges related to the Program of approximately $95 million, which included approximately $23 million of non-cash charges. Furthermore, cumulatively, in conjunction with previous actions taken under the Capital Light program, total expected cash expenditures are approximately $140 to $165 million and total expected non-cash charges are $70 to $75 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, in connection with the Program, Mattel completed the sale of a manufacturing plant based in Mexico, which included land and buildings, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $15.8 million.

19.     Income Taxes

Mattel's provision for income taxes was $23.9 million and $20.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel recognized a net discrete tax expense of $12.2 million, primarily related to (i) undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries and (ii) reassessments of prior years' tax liabilities. As a result of the establishment of a valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets in 2017, there was no U.S. tax benefit provided for U.S. losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel recognized a net discrete tax expense of $7.3 million, primarily related to income taxes recorded on a discrete basis in various jurisdictions and reassessments of prior years' tax liabilities.

Evaluating the need for and the amount of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets often requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available evidence to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that these assets will be realizable. Mattel routinely assesses the positive and negative evidence for this realizability, including the evaluation of sustained profitability and three years of cumulative pretax income for each tax jurisdiction. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel had a valuation allowance on U.S. federal, state, and certain foreign deferred tax assets. During the second half of 2021, Mattel released the valuation allowances related to U.S. federal, state and certain foreign deferred tax assets, except for certain tax assets that are primarily expected to expire before utilization. Valuation allowance releases resulted in recognition of $540.8 million of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021. Mattel’s valuation allowance position has remained unchanged as of March 31, 2022.

In the normal course of business, Mattel is regularly audited by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities. Based on the current status of federal, state, and foreign audits, Mattel believes it is reasonably possible that in the next 12 months, the total unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $20.9 million related to the settlement of tax audits and/or the expiration of statutes of limitations. The ultimate settlement of any particular issue with the applicable taxing authority could have a material impact on Mattel's consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel has recorded on a discrete basis a deferred tax liability on certain foreign subsidiaries of approximately $7.7 million. For remaining undistributed foreign earnings, Mattel has not provided any deferred taxes with respect to items such as foreign withholding taxes, state income tax or foreign exchange gain or loss that would be due when cash is actually repatriated to the U.S. because those foreign earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested in the business or may be remitted substantially free of any additional local taxes. The determination of any incremental tax liability associated with these earnings is not practicable due to the complexity of local country withholding rules and interactions with tax treaties, foreign exchange considerations, and the diversity of state income tax treatment on actual distribution. Mattel will remit reinvested earnings of its foreign subsidiaries for which a deferred tax liability has been recorded when Mattel determines that it is advantageous for business operations or cash management purposes.

20.     Contingencies

Litigation Related to Yellowstone do Brasil Ltda.

In April 1999, Yellowstone do Brasil Ltd. (formerly known as Trebbor Informática Ltda.) filed a lawsuit against Mattel do Brasil before the 15th Civil Court of Curitiba, State of Parana, requesting the annulment of its security bonds and promissory notes given to Mattel do Brasil as well as damages due to an alleged breach of an oral exclusive distribution agreement between the parties relating to the supply and sale of toys in Brazil. Yellowstone's complaints sought alleged loss of profits plus an unspecified amount of damages.

Mattel do Brasil filed its defenses to these claims and simultaneously presented a counterclaim for unpaid accounts receivable for goods supplied to Yellowstone.

In April 2018, Mattel do Brasil entered into a settlement agreement to resolve this matter, but the settlement was later rejected by the courts, subject to a pending appeal by Mattel.

In October 2018, the Superior Court of Justice issued a final ruling in favor of Yellowstone on the merits of Yellowstone's claims. Previously, the courts had ruled in Mattel's favor on its counterclaim.

23

In October 2019, Mattel reached an agreement with Yellowstone's former counsel regarding payment of the attorney's fees portion of the judgment. In November 2019, Yellowstone initiated an action to enforce its judgment against Mattel, but did not account for an offset for Mattel's counterclaim. In January 2020, Mattel obtained an injunction, staying Yellowstone's enforcement action pending resolution of Mattel's appeal to enforce the parties' April 2018 settlement. As of March 31, 2022, Mattel assessed its probable loss related to the Yellowstone matter and has accrued a reserve, which is not material.

Litigation Related to the Fisher-Price Rock 'n Play Sleeper

A number of putative class action lawsuits filed between April 2019 and October 2019 are pending against Fisher-Price, Inc. and/or Mattel, Inc. asserting claims for false advertising, negligent product design, breach of warranty, fraud, and other claims in connection with the marketing and sale of the Fisher-Price Rock 'n Play Sleeper (the "Sleeper"). In general, the lawsuits allege that the Sleeper should not have been marketed and sold as safe and fit for prolonged and overnight sleep for infants. The putative class action lawsuits propose nationwide and over 10 statewide consumer classes comprised of those who purchased the Sleeper as marketed as safe for prolonged and overnight sleep. The class actions have been consolidated before a single judge in the United States District Court for the Western District of New York for pre-trial purposes pursuant to the federal courts’ Multi-District Litigation program.

Forty additional lawsuits filed between April 2019 and April 2022 are pending against Fisher-Price, Inc. and Mattel, Inc. alleging that a product defect in the Sleeper caused the fatalities of or injuries to forty-four children. Several lawsuits have been settled and/or dismissed. Additionally, Fisher-Price, Inc. and/or Mattel, Inc. have also received letters from lawyers purporting to represent additional plaintiffs who are threatening to assert similar claims.

In addition, a stockholder has filed a derivative action in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (Kumar v. Bradley, et al., filed July 7, 2020) alleging breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment related to the development, marketing, and sale of the Sleeper. The defendants in the derivative action are certain of Mattel's current and former officers and directors. In August 2020, the derivative action was stayed pending further developments in the class action lawsuits. In August 2021, a second similar derivative action was filed in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (Armon v. Bradley, et al., filed August 30, 2021).

The lawsuits seek compensatory damages, punitive damages, statutory damages, restitution, disgorgement, attorneys’ fees, costs, interest, declaratory relief, and/or injunctive relief. Mattel believes that the allegations in the lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.

A reasonable estimate of the amount of any possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time.

Litigation and Investigations Related to Whistleblower Letter

In December 2019 and January 2020, two stockholders filed separate complaints styled as class actions against Mattel, Inc. and certain of its former officers (the "Mattel Defendants"), as well as others, in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, alleging violations of federal securities laws. The two complaints were consolidated in April 2020 and an amended complaint was filed in May 2020. The complaints rely on the results of an investigation announced by Mattel in October 2019 regarding allegations in a whistleblower letter and claim that Mattel misled the market in several of its financial statements beginning in the third quarter of 2017. The lawsuits allege that the defendants' conduct caused the plaintiffs and other stockholders to purchase Mattel common stock at artificially inflated prices, the court granted plaintiffs' motion for class certification in September 2021. Following a mediation on October 25, 2021, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle the class action lawsuits, which has been preliminarily approved by the court. In February 2022, the Mattel Defendants paid $86 million in settlement of the claims against them, which was funded in full by Mattel’s insurers. The settlement does not entail any admission of fault or liability by the Mattel Defendants, which the Mattel Defendants have expressly contested throughout the pendency of the litigation.

24

In addition, a stockholder has filed a derivative action in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (Moher v. Kreiz, et al., filed April 9, 2020) making allegations that are substantially identical to, or are based upon, the allegations of the class action lawsuits. The defendants in the derivative action are certain of Mattel's current and former officers and directors, Mattel, Inc., and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. Subsequently, a nearly identical derivative action was filed by a different stockholder against the same defendants. The second lawsuit is styled as an amended complaint and replaces a complaint making unrelated allegations in a previously filed lawsuit already pending in Delaware federal court (Lombardi v. Kreiz, et al., amended complaint filed April 16, 2020). In May 2020, the Moher and Lombardi derivative actions were consolidated and stayed pending further developments in the class action lawsuits. In June 2021, a third similar derivative action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (Chagnon v. Kreiz, et al., filed June 22, 2021). Seven additional derivative actions asserting similar claims are also pending in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (Owen v. Euteneuer, et al., filed May 12, 2021; Andersen v. Georgiadis, et al., filed May 18, 2021; Armon v. Euteneuer, et al., filed June 29, 2021; Haag v. Euteneuer, et al., filed September 9, 2021; Shumacher v. Kreiz, et al., filed October 19, 2021; and Mizell v. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, et al., filed October 29, 2021; and Behrens v. Euteneuer, et al., filed November 18, 2021). An additional derivative action was also filed in United States District Court for the Central District of California (City of Pontiac Police and Fire Retirement System v. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, et al. filed October 27, 2021). On March 11, 2022, the parties to the above actions engaged in a private mediation, after which defendants and certain of the plaintiffs reached an agreement in principle to settle the derivative claims asserted in certain of the actions. Any settlement remains subject to court approval.

The lawsuits seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys' fees, expert fees, costs, equitable relief and/or injunctive relief. Mattel believes that the allegations in the lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. Mattel believes that the estimated loss, if any, will be immaterial.

Mattel has also received subpoenas from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), seeking documents related to the whistleblower letter and subsequent investigation, and is responding to those subpoenas. Mattel is also responding to requests from the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York ("SDNY") related to this matter. Mattel cannot predict the eventual scope, duration or outcome of potential legal action by the SEC or SDNY, if any, or whether any such action could have a material impact on Mattel's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

22.     New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosure by Business Entities about Government Assistance, which requires business entities to disclose information about certain government assistance by applying the grant or contribution model. Mattel adopted the guidance on January 1, 2022. The adoption of the new accounting standard does not currently have a material impact on Mattel's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, respectively. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP, to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The guidance in ASU 2020- 04 and ASU 2021-01 was effective upon issuance and, once adopted, may be applied prospectively to contract modifications and hedging relationships through December 31, 2022. Mattel is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 on its consolidated financial statements.

27

23. Revision for Immaterial Misstatements

As disclosed in "Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Basis of Presentation," during the second quarter of 2021, Mattel identified misstatements for inventory tooling expenses that should have first been capitalized into inventory and a misstatement related to the timing of disbursements for certain capital expenditures that resulted in a cash flow misclassification between operating activities and investing activities. Although Mattel concluded that these misstatements were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to its current or previously issued consolidated financial statements, Mattel elected to revise its previously issued consolidated financial statements to correct for these misstatements. In connection with such revision, Mattel is also correcting for other previously identified immaterial misstatements that were previously corrected for as out of period adjustments in the period of identification.

Due to certain misstatements originating prior to 2018, the opening retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2018 was understated by $25.1 million, primarily due to the net impact of the tooling misstatement of $37.2 million, partially offset by other previously identified misstatements of $12.1 million. Such previously identified misstatements were previously corrected for as out of period adjustments and included the improper revenue recognition for certain licensing contracts executed prior to 2018 and the understatement of depreciation expense for certain fixed assets. Similarly, the opening retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2020 was understated by $16.9 million, which principally included the net impact of the tooling misstatement and an over-accrual of advertising costs.

The revision also reflects the correction of previously identified balance sheet misclassifications, including a misclassification between property, plant and equipment and other assets associated with capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing software.

The accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows have been revised to reflect the above items, inclusive of the cash flow misstatement between operating and investing activities related to capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing software and the timing of disbursements for capital expenditures.

The revision to the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, and consolidated statement of cash flows are as follows. There were no changes to the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity that have not otherwise been reflected in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income or loss as detailed in the tables below:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

In the discussion that follows, "Mattel" refers to Mattel, Inc. and/or one or more of its subsidiaries.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear in Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Mattel's business is seasonal with consumers making a large percentage of all toy purchases during the traditional holiday season; therefore, results of operations are most comparable to corresponding periods.

The following discussion includes currency exchange rate impact, a non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the SEC ("Regulation G"), to supplement the financial results as reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The currency exchange rate impact reflects the portion (expressed as a percentage) of changes in Mattel's reported results that are attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Mattel uses this non-GAAP financial measure to analyze its continuing operations and to monitor, assess, and identify meaningful trends in its operating and financial performance. Management believes that the disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information to investors to allow them to better evaluate ongoing business performance and certain components of Mattel's results. This measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP financial measures.

The following discussion also includes the use of gross billings, a key performance indicator. Gross billings represent amounts invoiced to customers. It does not include the impact of sales adjustments, such as trade discounts and other allowances. Mattel presents changes in gross billings as a metric for comparing its aggregate, categorical, brand, and geographic results to highlight significant trends in Mattel's business. Changes in gross billings are discussed because, while Mattel records the details of sales adjustments in its financial accounting systems at the time of sale, such sales adjustments are generally not associated with categories, brands, and individual products.

The following discussion has been amended to reflect Mattel’s revision of previously issued consolidated financial statements to correct for prior period misstatements, which Mattel concluded did not, either individually or in the aggregate, result in a material misstatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements. Further information regarding the revision is included in Part 1, Item 1 "Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements — Basis of Presentation" and "Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements — Revision for Immaterial Misstatements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Note that amounts shown in millions or billions within this Item 2 may not sum due to rounding.

Action Figures, Building Sets, Games, and Other—these challenger categories include brands such as Masters of the Universe, MEGA, UNO, Lightyear (Disney Pixar), Jurassic World (NBCUniversal), WWE, and Star Wars (Disney). Mattel’s Action Figures portfolio is comprised of product lines associated with licensed entertainment franchises that are driven by major theatrical releases, such as Lightyear and Jurassic World, as well as product lines from Mattel’s owned IP, including Masters of the Universe. As the challenger brand in Building Sets, MEGA sparks creativity through the power of connection with builders of all ages and fans of global franchises. UNO is the classic matching card game that is easy to learn and fast fun for everyone. Other includes Plush, which contains product offerings associated with theatrical releases from Mattel’s licensed entertainment franchises.

Russia - Ukraine War

The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has led to volatility and disruption in these countries. The length and impact of the ongoing war is highly unpredictable. While Mattel has no direct operations in Ukraine, its operations in Russia have experienced significant disruption, Mattel has paused all shipments into Russia and expects its net sales in these countries to decline in 2022. Mattel's net sales in these two countries represented less than 3% of total net sales during the year ended December 31, 2021.

COVID-19 Update

The impact of the coronavirus disease ("COVID-19") and the actions taken by governments, businesses, and individuals in response to it have resulted in significant global economic disruption, including, but not limited to, temporary business closures, reduced retail traffic, volatility in financial markets, and restrictions on travel.

Although COVID-19 disruption and local restrictions have impacted certain segments and locations, strong consumer demand for toys contributed to year-over-year net sales increases during the first quarter of 2022 in the North America and International segments. Net sales declined in the American Girl segment during the first quarter of 2022, as compared to a strong first quarter of 2021.

While COVID-19 has caused manufacturing and distribution disruption for Mattel and the manufacturers and distribution network it relies upon, to date, this disruption, including temporary plant and port closures, has not materially impacted Mattel’s ability to meet demand for its products. To the extent COVID-19 causes further manufacturing and distribution disruption, particularly during seasonally-high periods of production and/or distribution, Mattel’s ability to meet demand may be materially impacted.

Input cost inflation has adversely affected Mattel’s gross margin in the first quarter of 2022, due to increased demand for raw materials and distribution services and the broad disruption of the global supply chain associated with the impact of COVID-19. The adverse impact was mostly offset by favorable foreign exchange, pricing actions, fixed cost absorption, and cost savings. Mattel expects input cost inflation will be more significant in 2022 than in 2021, however, the impact of input cost inflation is expected to be partially offset by further benefits from pricing, fixed cost absorption, and cost savings. To the extent input cost inflation becomes more widespread, more significant than anticipated, or Mattel is unable to offset inflation through mitigating actions, it may have a material effect on Mattel’s results of operations and financial condition.

Prolonged disruption to Mattel’s customers, supply chain, or other critical operations during 2022 would result in material adverse effects to Mattel’s business. The future impact of COVID-19 on Mattel's business, results of operations, financial position, and cash flows remains uncertain at this time due to evolving circumstances. Mattel continues to closely monitor the situation and is actively managing its business as developments occur. Refer to Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion regarding potential impacts of COVID-19 on Mattel’s business.

The specific line items that have been materially affected by these impacts of COVID-19 are noted within "Results of Operations—First Quarter" below.  In addition to the impacts of COVID-19, it is reasonably likely that the pandemic and its resulting effects could have other unforeseen consequences that affect Mattel’s business.

Gross billings were $1.16 billion in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $185.4 million or 19%, as compared to $979 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was due to higher billings across all categories.

Dolls gross billings increased 4%, of which 6% was due to higher billings of Barbie products, driven by positive brand momentum, and 2% was due to higher billings of Polly Pocket products. This was partially offset by lower billings of American Girl products of 3%.

Infant, Toddler, and Preschool gross billings increased 12%, of which 10% was due to higher billings of Fisher-Price and Thomas & Friends, primarily driven by higher billings of Imaginext, newborn toys, and Little People.

Vehicles gross billings increased 31%, of which 26% was due to higher billings of Hot Wheels products, driven by positive brand momentum, 3% was due to higher billings of Matchbox products, and 2% was due to higher billings of CARS products.

Action Figures, Building Sets, Games, and Other gross billings increased 41%, of which 23% was driven by higher billings of Jurassic World and 8% was driven by initial billings of Lightyear, in advance of their theatrical releases in the second quarter of 2022, and 7% was driven by higher billings of MEGA.

Sales adjustments represent arrangements with Mattel’s customers to provide sales incentives, support customer promotions, and provide allowances for returns and defective merchandise. Such programs are based primarily on customer purchases, customer performance of specified promotional activities, and other specified factors such as sales to consumers. Sales adjustments increased to $123.1 million in the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $104.8 million in the first quarter of 2021, due to higher gross billings. Sales adjustments as a percentage of net sales was relatively consistent at 11.8% for the first quarter of 2022 as compared to 12.0% for the first quarter of 2021.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales increased by $96.1 million, or 21%, to $558.4 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $462.4 million in the first quarter of 2021. Within cost of sales, product and other costs increased by $71.6 million, or 19%, to $448.4 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $376.8 million in the first quarter of 2021; royalty expense increased by $17.1 million, or 62%, to $44.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $27.8 million in the first quarter of 2021; and outbound freight and logistics expenses increased by $7.4 million, or 13%, to $65.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $57.8 million in the first quarter of 2021.

Gross Margin

Gross margin decreased to 46.4% in the first quarter of 2022 from 47.1% in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to input cost inflation, partially offset by favorable foreign exchange, pricing actions, favorable fixed cost absorption, and incremental realized savings from Mattel's cost savings program.

Advertising and Promotion Expenses

Advertising and promotion expenses primarily consist of: (i) media costs, which include the media, planning, and buying fees for television, print, and online advertisements, (ii) non-media costs, which include commercial and website production, merchandising, and promotional costs, (iii) retail advertising costs, which include consumer direct catalogs, and (iv) generic advertising costs, which include trade show costs. Advertising and promotion expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 7.1% in the first quarter of 2022, as compared to 8.5% in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to a 19% increase in net sales.

Other Selling and Administrative Expenses

Other selling and administrative expenses were $329.1 million, or 31.6% of net sales, in the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $303.9 million, or 34.8% of net sales, in the first quarter of 2021. The increase in other selling and administrative expenses was primarily due to higher employee-related expenses, partially offset by incremental realized savings from Mattel's cost savings program.

33

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $33.0 million for the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $130.5 million for the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in interest expense was due to a loss on extinguishment of debt of $83.2 million as a result of the partial redemption of the 2017/2018 Senior Notes due December 2025 in the first quarter of 2021 and a lower interest expense resulting from the refinancing of the 2025 Notes in 2021.

Provision For Income Taxes

Mattel's provision for income taxes was $23.9 million and $20.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel recognized a net discrete tax expense of $12.2 million, primarily related to (i) undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries and (ii) reassessments of prior years' tax liabilities. As a result of the establishment of a valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets in 2017, there was no U.S. tax benefit provided for U.S. losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel recognized a net discrete tax expense of $7.3 million primarily related to income taxes recorded on a discrete basis in various jurisdictions and reassessments of prior years' tax liabilities.

Evaluating the need for and the amount of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets often requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available evidence to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that these assets will be realizable. Mattel routinely assesses the positive and negative evidence for this realizability, including the evaluation of sustained profitability and three years of cumulative pretax income for each tax jurisdiction. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel had a valuation allowance on U.S. federal, state and certain foreign deferred tax assets. During the second half of 2021, Mattel released the valuation allowances related to U.S. federal, state and certain foreign deferred tax assets, except for certain tax assets that are primarily expected to expire before utilization. Valuation allowance releases resulted in the recognition of $540.8 million of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021. Mattel's valuation allowance position has remained unchanged as of March 31, 2022.

Cost Savings Program

Optimizing for Growth (formerly Capital Light)

In February 2021, Mattel announced the Optimizing for Growth program, a multi-year cost savings program that integrates and expands upon the previously announced Capital Light program (the “Program”). Targeted annual gross cost savings from actions that are expected to be completed beginning 2021 through 2023 are $250 million. Of the $250 million in targeted gross cost savings, approximately 55% is expected to benefit cost of sales, 35% is expected to benefit other selling and administrative expenses, and 10% is expected to benefit advertising and promotion expense. Estimated total cash expenditures associated with the Program, excluding previous actions taken under the Capital Light program, are expected to be approximately $100 to $125 million.

Mattel estimates the cost of actions for the Program, excluding previous actions taken under the Capital Light program, to be as follows:

Optimizing for Growth - Actions	Estimate of Cost
Employee severance	$20 to $25 million
Real estate/supply chain optimization and other restructuring costs	$15 to $25 million
Non-cash charges	$55 to $60 million
Total estimated severance and restructuring costs	$90 to $110 million
Information technology enhancements and other investments	$65 to $75million
Total estimated actions	$155 to $185 million

37

Cumulatively, in conjunction with previous actions taken under the Capital Light program prior to 2021, targeted annual gross cost savings for the Program are $325 million by 2023, with total expected cash expenditures of approximately $140 to $165 million, and total expected non-cash charges of $70 to $75 million. Of the $325 million in targeted gross cost savings, approximately 65% is expected to benefit cost of sales, 25% is expected to benefit other selling and administrative expenses, and 10% is expected to benefit advertising and promotion expense.

In connection with the Program, Mattel has recorded severance and other restructuring costs in the following cost and expense categories within the consolidated statements of operations:

	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021
	(In millions)
Cost of sales (a)	$	2.7	$	1.9
Other selling and administrative expenses (b)	6.4		5.7
	$	9.1	$	7.6

(a)Severance and other restructuring costs recorded within cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations are included in segment operating income (loss) in Part 1, Item 1 "Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Segment Information" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(b)Severance and other restructuring costs recorded within other selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations are included in corporate and other expense in Part 1, Item 1"Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Segment Information" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel has recorded cumulative severance and other restructuring charges related to the Program of approximately $95 million, which include approximately $23 million of non-cash charges. Mattel realized cumulative cost savings (before severance, restructuring costs, and input cost inflation) of approximately $189 million, primarily within gross profit, as of March 31, 2022 in connection with the Program.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, in conjunction with the Program, Mattel completed the sale of a manufacturing plant based in Mexico, which included land and buildings, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $15.8 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Mattel's primary sources of liquidity are its domestic and foreign cash and equivalents balances, short-term borrowing facilities, including its $1.40 billion senior secured revolving credit facilities, and access to capital markets to fund its operations and obligations. Such obligations may include capital expenditures, debt service, future royalty payments pursuant to licensing agreements, future inventory and service purchases, and required cash contributions and payments related to benefit plans. Of Mattel's $536.6 million in cash and equivalents at March 31, 2022, approximately $232.1 million was held by foreign subsidiaries.

Cash flows from operating activities could be negatively impacted by decreased demand for Mattel's products, which could result from factors such as, but not limited to, adverse economic conditions and changes in public and consumer preferences, or by increased costs associated with manufacturing and distribution of products or shortages in raw materials or component parts. Additionally, Mattel's ability to issue long-term debt and obtain seasonal financing could be adversely affected by factors such as, but not limited to, global economic crises and tight credit environments, an inability to comply with its debt covenants and its senior secured revolving credit facilities covenants, or deterioration of Mattel's credit ratings. As discussed under Part I, Item 2 "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—COVID-19 Update" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, many of the aforementioned factors have been and may be adversely affected by COVID-19. However, based on Mattel’s current business plan and factors known to date, including the currently known impacts of COVID-19, it is expected that existing cash and equivalents, cash flows from operations, availability under the senior secured credit revolving facilities, and access to capital markets, will be sufficient to meet working capital and operating expenditure requirements for the next twelve months.

Current Market Conditions

Mattel is exposed to financial market risk resulting from changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates.

38

Consistent with prior periods, Mattel intends to utilize its senior secured revolving credit facilities to meet its short-term liquidity needs. At March 31, 2022, Mattel had no outstanding borrowings under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and approximately $10 million in outstanding letters of credit under the senior secured revolving credit facilities. 

Market conditions could affect certain terms of other debt instruments that Mattel enters into from time to time.

Mattel monitors the third-party depository institutions that hold Mattel's cash and equivalents. Mattel's emphasis is primarily on safety and liquidity of principal, and secondarily on maximizing the yield on those funds. Mattel diversifies its cash and equivalents among counterparties and securities to minimize risks.

Mattel is subject to credit risks relating to the ability of its counterparties in hedging transactions to meet their contractual payment obligations. The risks related to creditworthiness and nonperformance have been considered in the fair value measurements of Mattel's foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Mattel closely monitors its counterparties and takes action, as necessary, to manage its counterparty credit risk.

Mattel expects that some of its customers and vendors may experience difficulty in obtaining the liquidity required to buy inventory or raw materials. Mattel monitors its customers' financial condition and their liquidity in order to mitigate accounts receivable collectability risks, and customer terms and credit limits are adjusted, if necessary. Additionally, Mattel uses a variety of financial arrangements to ensure collectability of accounts receivable of customers deemed to be a credit risk, including requiring letters of credit, factoring, purchasing various forms of credit insurance with unrelated third parties, or requiring cash in advance of shipment.

Mattel sponsors defined benefit pension plans and postretirement benefit plans for its employees. Actual returns below the expected rate of return, along with changes in interest rates that affect the measurement of the liability, would impact the amount and timing of Mattel's future contributions to these plans.

Mattel's business has been impacted by COVID-19. Refer to Part I, Item 2 "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—COVID-19 Update" for further discussion regarding the impact and potential impacts of COVID-19 on Mattel’s business.

Cash Flow Activities

Cash flows used for operating activities were $143.8 million in the first three months of 2022, as compared to $35.7 million in the first three months of 2021. The increase in cash flows used for operating activities was primarily due to higher working capital usage, partially offset by higher net income, excluding the impact of non-cash items.

Cash flows used for investing activities were $55.0 million in the first three months of 2022, as compared to cash flows provided by investing activities of $0.8 million in the first three months of 2021. The change in cash flows for investing activities was primarily due to proceeds from the disposal of assets and a business in the first three months of 2021 and higher payments for foreign currency forward exchange contracts in the first three months of 2022.

Cash flows used for financing activities were $4.2 million in the first three months of 2022, as compared to $105.7 million in the first three months of 2021. The decrease in cash flows used for financing activities was primarily due to the partial redemption of the 2017/2018 Senior Notes due December 2025 in the first three months of 2021.

Seasonal Financing

See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Seasonal Financing" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Financial Position

Mattel's cash and equivalents decreased $194.7 million to $536.6 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $731.4 million at December 31, 2021, due to seasonal working capital usage and capital expenditures. The decreases were partially offset by net income during the first three months of 2022. Mattel's cash and equivalents decreased $78.6 million to $536.6 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $615.2 million at March 31, 2021, primarily due to the repayment of the remaining $275 million principal balance of the 2025 Notes in July 2021 and capital expenditures, partially offset by cash flows from operating activities in the trailing twelve months due to net income.

Accounts receivable decreased $210.4 million to $862.2 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $1.07 billion at December 31, 2021, primarily due to seasonal declines as year-end receivables are collected. Accounts receivable increased $181.6 million to $862.2 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $680.6 million at March 31, 2021, primarily due to higher net sales in the first quarter of 2022.

39

Inventory increased $192.0 million to $969.2 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $777.2 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to seasonal inventory build and the impact of input cost inflation. Inventory increased $342.7 million to $969.2 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $626.5 million at March 31, 2021, primarily due to the earlier timing of seasonal inventory build and the impact of input cost inflation.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased $25.6 million to $267.7 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $293.3 million at December 31, 2021, due to settlement of a receivable due from insurers related to a legal matter during the three months ended March 31, 2022, partially offset by increases in derivative receivables, prepaid taxes other than income taxes, and other miscellaneous prepaid expenses. Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased $80.5 million to $267.7 million at March 31, 2022, as compared to $187.2 million at March 31, 2021, due to increases in derivative receivables, prepaid taxes other than income taxes, and other miscellaneous prepaid expenses.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased $292.7 million to $1.28 billion at March 31, 2022, as compared to $1.57 billion at December 31, 2021, due to seasonal declines in expenditure levels and the settlement of an accrued legal matter during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased $226.4 million to $1.28 billion at March 31, 2022, as compared to $1.05 billion at March 31, 2021, due to increased payables associated with higher inventory production levels and input cost inflation, and increases in accrued advertising and employee-related accruals.

A summary of Mattel's capitalization is as follows:

	March 31, 2022				March 31, 2021				December 31, 2021
	(In millions, except percentage information)
Cash and equivalents	$	536.6			$	615.2			$	731.4

Total debt	2,572.2		61	%	2,838.6		85	%	2,571.0		62	%
Stockholders’ equity	1,618.1		39		490.6		15		1,568.8		38
Total capitalization (debt plus equity)	$	4,190.2	100	%	$	3,329.2	100	%	$	4,139.8	100	%

On March 19, 2021, Mattel issued (i) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and (ii) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" and, together with the 2026 Notes, the "Notes"). The 2026 Notes will mature on April 1, 2026 and the 2029 Notes will mature on April 1, 2029, unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their respective terms. The Notes are guaranteed by Mattel’s existing and, subject to certain exceptions, future wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee Mattel’s senior secured revolving credit facilities or certain other indebtedness.

The net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem $1.225 billion in aggregate principal amount of Mattel’s outstanding 6.750% Senior Notes due December 2025 (the "2025 Notes") and pay related prepayment premiums and transaction fees and expenses. As a result of the partial redemption of the 2025 Notes, Mattel incurred a loss on extinguishment of $83.2 million, comprised of $62.0 million of prepayment premium costs and a $21.2 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2021.

On July 1, 2021, Mattel redeemed the remaining outstanding $275 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes. As a result of the redemption, Mattel incurred a loss on extinguishment of $18.5 million, comprised of $14.0 million of prepayment premium costs and a $4.5 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the third quarter of 2021.

40

Total debt, including short-term borrowings, remained consistent at $2.57 billion at March 31, 2022, as compared to $2.57 billion at December 31, 2021.

Total debt, including short-term borrowings, was $2.57 billion at March 31, 2022, as compared to $2.84 billion at March 31, 2021. The decrease was due to the repayment of the remaining $275 million principal balance of the 2025 Notes in July 2021.

Stockholders' equity increased $49.2 million to $1.62 billion at March 31, 2022, as compared to $1.57 billion at December 31, 2021, primarily due to net income for the first three months of 2022 and the impact of share-based compensation recognized in additional paid-in capital. Stockholders' equity increased $1.13 billion to $1.62 billion at March 31, 2022, as compared to $490.6 million at March 31, 2021, primarily due to net income for the trailing twelve months.

Litigation

See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Contingencies" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Mattel's critical accounting policies and estimates are included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K and did not materially change during the first three months of 2022.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—New Accounting Pronouncements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), Mattel presents a non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the SEC. The non-GAAP financial measure that Mattel presents is currency exchange rate impact. Mattel uses this measure to analyze its continuing operations and to monitor, assess, and identify meaningful trends in its operating and financial performance. Mattel believes that the disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information to investors to be able to better evaluate ongoing business performance and certain components of Mattel's results. This measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

Currency Exchange Rate Impact

The currency exchange rate impact reflects the portion (expressed as a percentage) of changes in Mattel's reported results that are attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

For entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, Mattel calculates the percentage change of period-over-period results at constant currency exchange rates (established as described below) by translating current period and prior period results using these rates. It then determines the currency exchange rate impact percentage by calculating the difference between the percentage change at such constant currency exchange rates and the percentage change at actual exchange rates.

The constant currency exchange rates are determined by Mattel at the beginning of each year and are applied consistently during the year. They are generally different from the actual exchange rates in effect during the current or prior period due to volatility in actual foreign exchange rates. Mattel considers whether any changes to the constant currency rates are appropriate at the beginning of each year. The exchange rates used for these constant currency calculations are generally based on prior year actual exchange rates.

Mattel believes that the disclosure of the percentage impact of foreign currency changes is useful supplemental information for investors to be able to gauge Mattel's current business performance and the longer-term strength of its overall business since foreign currency changes could potentially mask underlying sales trends. The disclosure of the percentage impact of foreign exchange allows investors to calculate the impact on a constant currency basis and also enhances their ability to compare financial results from one period to another.

41

Key Performance Indicator

Gross billings represent amounts invoiced to customers. It does not include the impact of sales adjustments, such as trade discounts and other allowances. Mattel presents changes in gross billings as a metric for comparing its aggregate, categorical, brand, and geographic results to highlight significant trends in Mattel's business. Changes in gross billings are discussed because, while Mattel records the details of sales adjustments in its financial accounting systems at the time of sale, such sales adjustments are generally recorded by customer and not associated with categories, brands, and individual products.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Currency exchange rate fluctuations impact Mattel's results of operations and cash flows. Inventory transactions denominated in the Chinese yuan, Euro, Russian ruble, and Mexican peso were the primary transactions that caused foreign currency transaction exposure for Mattel during the first three months of 2022. Mattel seeks to mitigate its exposure to market risk by monitoring its foreign currency transaction exposure for the year and partially hedging such exposure using foreign currency forward exchange contracts primarily to hedge its purchase and sale of inventory and other intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts generally have maturity dates of up to 24 months. For those intercompany receivables and payables that are not hedged, the transaction gains or losses are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the exchange rate changes as part of operating income or other non-operating expense (income), net based on the nature of the underlying transaction. Transaction gains or losses on hedged intercompany inventory transactions are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the inventory is sold to customers. In addition, Mattel manages its exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations through the selection of currencies used for international borrowings. Mattel does not trade in financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Mattel's financial position is also impacted by currency exchange rate fluctuations on translation of its net investments in subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies. Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at fiscal period-end exchange rates. Income, expense, and cash flow items are translated at weighted-average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal period. The resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders' equity. Mattel's primary currency translation adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were related to its net investments in entities having functional currencies denominated in the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Chilean peso, British pound sterling, and the Russian ruble.

There are numerous factors impacting the amount by which Mattel's financial results are affected by foreign currency translation and transaction gains and losses resulting from changes in currency exchange rates, including, but not limited to, the level of foreign currency forward exchange contracts in place at a given time and the volume of foreign currency-denominated transactions in a given period. However, assuming that such factors were held constant, Mattel estimates that a 1 percent change in the U.S. dollar would have impacted Mattel's first quarter net sales by approximately 0.4% and would have less than a $0.01 impact to Mattel's net income per share.

United Kingdom Operations

On January 29, 2020, the British Parliament approved an agreement to withdraw from the EU, and the United Kingdom ("U.K.") officially withdrew from the EU on January 31, 2020 and entered into a transition period that ended on December 31, 2020.

On December 24, 2020, the U.K. and EU agreed upon The EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement. The agreement was provisionally applicable beginning January 1, 2021 and sets new rules and arrangements between the U.K. and EU in areas such as the trade of goods and services, intellectual property, transportation, and more. As a result of the agreement, the U.K. is no longer considered a member of the EU Single Market and Customs Union and exited all EU policies and trade agreements. The transfer of goods between the U.K. and EU is subject to additional inspections and checkpoints causing possible delays in the movement of inventory.

On April 27, 2021, the European Parliament gave final approval to the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement, and on April 29, 2021, the EU approved the conclusion of the agreement by way of a Council Decision. As a result, the agreements between the U.K. and the EU came into effect on May 1, 2021. This was the last official step in formalizing the new relationship between the U.K. and the EU. Although the agreement has mitigated a portion of the risk that arose due to the U.K.'s withdrawal from the EU, the overall impact on Mattel's operations is still being evaluated, including the volatility of the British pound sterling. Mattel's U.K. operations represented approximately 6% of Mattel's consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

42

Turkey Operations

Effective April 1, 2022, Mattel will account for Turkey as a highly inflationary economy, as the projected three-year cumulative inflation rate exceeded 100%. As such, beginning April 1, 2022, Mattel's Turkey subsidiary will designate the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. As of March 31, 2022, Mattel's Turkey subsidiary had approximately $9 million of net monetary assets denominated in Turkish Lira. Mattel's Turkey subsidiary represented less than 2% of Mattel's consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel’s disclosure controls and procedures were evaluated, with the participation of Mattel’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to assess whether they are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by Mattel in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Based on this evaluation, Ynon Kreiz, Mattel’s principal executive officer, and Anthony DiSilvestro, Mattel’s principal financial officer, concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance as of March 31, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Mattel’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The content of Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Contingencies" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety in this Item 1.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Other than as provided below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Political developments, including trade relations, and the threat or occurrence of war or terrorist activities could adversely impact Mattel, its personnel and facilities, its customers and suppliers, retail and financial markets, and general economic conditions.

Mattel’s business is worldwide in scope, including operations in over 50 countries and territories. Political instability, civil unrest, the deterioration of the political situation in a country in which Mattel has significant sales or operations, or the breakdown of trade relations between the United States and a foreign country in which Mattel has significant manufacturing facilities or other operations, could adversely affect Mattel’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. For example, a change in trade status between the United States and a foreign country could result in a substantial increase in the import duty of toys manufactured in that foreign country and imported into the United States. The United States has implemented certain trade actions, including imposing increased tariffs on certain goods imported into the United States from China, which has resulted in retaliatory tariffs by China. In addition, the United States has commenced certain trade actions as a result of the Russia-Ukraine war, which have resulted and are expected to further result in retaliatory measures and actions by Russia. Any increased trade barriers or restrictions on global trade imposed by the United States, or further retaliatory trade measures taken by China, Russia, or other countries in response, could adversely affect Mattel's business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, the occurrence of war or hostilities between countries or threat of terrorist activities, and the responses to and results of these activities, could adversely impact Mattel, its personnel and facilities, its customers and suppliers, retail and financial markets, and general economic conditions. For example, as a result of the Russia-Ukraine war, Mattel's operations in Russia have experienced significant disruption, Mattel has paused all shipments into Russia and expects a lower than anticipated amount of revenue from those countries, the safety of Mattel’s employees in those countries could be at risk, and the risk of seizure or nationalization of Mattel’s assets within those countries is heightened.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only those of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and interim results of Mattel, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Mattel") as of and for the periods presented have been included.

The December 31, 2021 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements; however, the accompanying interim notes to the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP. As Mattel's business is seasonal, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with Mattel's consolidated financial statements and related notes in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Mattel identified a misstatement in its accounting for inventory tooling expenses, which were expensed to cost of sales rather than first being capitalized into the cost of inventory, which resulted in an understatement of inventory balances and a misstatement of cost of sales. Mattel also identified a misstatement related to the timing of disbursements for certain capital expenditures, which resulted in a cash flow misclassification between operating activities and investing activities. Mattel evaluated the misstatements and concluded that the misstatements were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to its current or previously issued consolidated financial statements.

To correct the immaterial misstatements, during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Mattel elected to revise its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for each of the three years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 and its unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2021, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020. The revision of the historical consolidated financial statements also includes the correction of other immaterial misstatements in its consolidated statement of operations that Mattel had previously recorded as out of period adjustments, as well as other previously identified balance sheet misclassifications. Mattel had previously determined that these misstatements did not, either individually or in the aggregate, result in a material misstatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements and reached the same conclusion when aggregating with the recently identified misstatements. Further information regarding the misstatements and related revision is included in "Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements— Revision for Immaterial Misstatements."

Mattel presented the revision of its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 in connection with the filing of its 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Mattel is presenting the revision of its previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, which are at the operating segment level, for the purpose of evaluating whether goodwill is impaired. Mattel’s reporting units are: (i) North America, (ii) International, and (iii) American Girl. Components of the operating segments have been aggregated into a single reporting unit as the components have similar economic characteristics. The similar economic characteristics include the nature of the products, the nature of the production processes, the customers, and the manner in which the products are distributed. Mattel tests its goodwill for impairment annually in the third quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value.

The change in the carrying amount of goodwill by operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is shown below. Brand-specific goodwill held by foreign subsidiaries is allocated to the North America segment, thereby causing a foreign currency translation impact.

Identifiable intangibles were $463.8 million, net of accumulated amortization of $336.3 million, $509.8 million, net of accumulated amortization of $296.4 million, and $476.9 million, net of accumulated amortization of $327.0 million as of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Mattel's amortizable intangible assets primarily consist of trademarks. Mattel tests its amortizable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Mattel's amortizable intangible assets were not impaired during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Seasonal Financing

Seasonal Financing

On December 20, 2017, Mattel entered into a syndicated facility agreement, which was subsequently amended in 2018, 2019, and 2021 (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"), as a borrower (in such capacity, the "Borrower") and guarantor thereunder, along with certain of the Borrower's domestic and foreign subsidiaries as additional borrowers and/or guarantors thereunder.

On March 19, 2021, Mattel entered into the fourth amendment to the Credit Agreement, which amended certain terms, including, but not limited to, certain components of the borrowing base, a reduction of the aggregate principal amount of the senior secured revolving credit facilities from $1.60 billion to $1.40 billion and an extension of the maturity date from November 20, 2022 to March 19, 2024.

The senior secured revolving credit facilities consist of (i) an asset based lending facility with aggregate commitments up to $1.11 billion, subject to borrowing base capacity, secured by substantially all of the accounts receivable and inventory of the Borrower and certain of its subsidiaries who are borrowers and/or guarantors under the Credit Agreement, as well as (ii) a revolving credit facility with $294.0 million in aggregate commitments secured by certain fixed assets and intellectual property of the U.S. borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and equity interests in certain borrower and guarantor subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement.

Any borrowings under the senior secured revolving credit facilities are (i) limited by jurisdiction-specific borrowing base calculations based on the sum of specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain fixed assets and intellectual property, as applicable, minus the amount of any applicable reserves, and (ii) bear interest at a floating rate, which can be either, at the Borrower's option, (a) an adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% per annum or (b) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75% per annum, in each case, such applicable margins to be determined based on the Borrower's average borrowing availability remaining under the senior secured revolving credit facilities.

In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the senior secured revolving credit facilities, the Borrower is required to pay (i) an unused line fee based on the average daily unused portion of the senior secured revolving credit facilities, (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee based on a percentage of the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit, and (iii) certain other customary fees and expenses of the lenders and agents.

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and no foreign short-term borrowings outstanding. As of March 31, 2021, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and $0.9 million of foreign short-term borrowings outstanding. As of December 31, 2021, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and no foreign short-term borrowings outstanding. Outstanding letters of credit under the senior secured revolving credit facilities totaled approximately $10 million, $11 million, and $10 million as of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022, Mattel was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is a material agreement, and failure to comply with its covenants may result in an event of default under the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facilities. If Mattel were to default under the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facilities, its ability to meet its seasonal financing requirements could be adversely affected.

On March 19, 2021, Mattel issued (i) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and (ii) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" and, together with the 2026 Notes, the "Notes"). The 2026 Notes will mature on April 1, 2026 and the 2029 Notes will mature on April 1, 2029, unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their respective terms. The Notes are guaranteed by Mattel’s existing and, subject to certain exceptions, future wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee Mattel’s senior secured revolving credit facilities or certain other indebtedness.

The net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem $1.225 billion in aggregate principal amount of Mattel’s outstanding 6.750% Senior Notes due December 2025 (the "2025 Notes") and pay related prepayment premiums and transaction fees and expenses. As a result of the partial redemption of the 2025 Notes, Mattel incurred a loss on extinguishment of $83.2 million, comprised of $62.0 million of prepayment premium costs and a $21.2 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2021.

On July 1, 2021, Mattel redeemed the remaining outstanding $275 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes. As a result of the redemption, Mattel incurred a loss on extinguishment of $18.5 million, comprised of $14.0 million of prepayment premium costs and a $4.5 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the third quarter of 2021.

(a)The amortization of prior service credit and recognized actuarial loss are included in the computation of net periodic benefit cost. Refer to "Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Employee Benefit Plans" for additional information regarding Mattel's net periodic benefit cost.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel adjusted accumulated other comprehensive loss by $6.4 million in relation to previously recorded available-for-sale equity securities. This amount was adjusted in order to account for such securities in a manner consistent with ASC 321, Investments—Equity Securities. The adjustment includes $3.6 million of accumulated other comprehensive loss reclassified to other non-operating expense (income) in the statement of operations and $2.8 million reclassified to retained earnings in the statement of stockholders' equity. The adjustment, including tax effect, was immaterial to the financial statements.

Currency Translation Adjustments

Mattel's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The translation of its net investments in subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies subjects Mattel to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in its results of operations and financial position. Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at fiscal period-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at weighted-average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal period. The resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders' equity. Currency translation adjustments resulted in a net gain of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to the strengthening of the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, and the Chilean peso against the U.S. dollar, offset by the weakening of the British pound sterling and the Russian ruble against the U.S. dollar. Currency translation adjustments resulted in a net loss of $28.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to the weakening of the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Euro, and Turkish lira against the U.S. dollar.

Foreign Currency [Abstract]

Foreign Currency Transaction Exposure

Foreign Currency Transaction ExposureCurrency exchange rate fluctuations impact Mattel's results of operations and cash flows. Mattel's currency transaction exposures include gains and losses realized on unhedged inventory purchases and unhedged receivables and payables balances that are denominated in a currency other than the applicable functional currency. Gains and losses on unhedged inventory purchases and other transactions associated with operating activities are recorded in the components of operating income in the consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses on unhedged intercompany loans and advances are recorded as a component of other non-operating expense (income), net in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the currency exchange rate changes. Transactions denominated in the Chinese yuan, Euro, Russian ruble, and Mexican peso, were the primary transactions that caused foreign currency transaction exposure for Mattel during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Currency transaction losses included in the consolidated statements of operations are as follows:

Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments

Derivative InstrumentsMattel seeks to mitigate its exposure to foreign currency transaction risk by monitoring its foreign currency transaction exposure for the year and partially hedging such exposure using foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Mattel uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts as cash flow hedges primarily to hedge its purchases and sales of inventory denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts generally have maturity dates of up to 24 months. These derivative instruments have been designated as effective cash flow hedges, whereby the unsettled hedges are reported in Mattel's consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with changes in the fair value of the hedges reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI"). Realized gains and losses for these contracts are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the inventory is sold to customers. Mattel uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge intercompany loans and advances denominated in foreign currencies. Due to the short-term nature of the contracts involved, Mattel does not use hedge accounting for these contracts, and as such, changes in fair value are recorded in the period of change in the consolidated statements of operations. Mattel utilizes derivative contracts to hedge certain purchases of commodities, which were not material. As of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021, Mattel held foreign currency forward exchange contracts and other commodity derivative instruments, with notional amounts of approximately $953 million, $952 million, and $925 million, respectively.

The following tables present Mattel's derivative assets and liabilities:

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present information about Mattel's assets and liabilities measured and reported in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2021 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

•Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.

•Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity, and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Mattel's financial assets and liabilities include the following:

Liabilities:
Foreign currency forward exchange contracts and other (a)	$	—	$	3,810	$	—	$	3,810

(a)The fair value of the foreign currency forward exchange contracts and other commodity derivative instruments is based on dealer quotes of market forward rates and reflects the amount that Mattel would receive or pay at their maturity dates for contracts involving the same notional amounts, currencies, and maturity dates.

(b)The fair value of the equity securities are based on the quoted price on an active public exchange.

Other Financial Instruments

Mattel's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt. The fair values of these instruments, excluding long-term debt, approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature. Cash and equivalents are classified as Level 1 and all other financial instruments are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The estimated fair value of Mattel's long-term debt was $2.65 billion (compared to a carrying value of $2.60 billion) as of March 31, 2022, $3.05 billion (compared to a carrying value of $2.88 billion) as of March 31, 2021, and $2.82 billion (compared to a carrying value of $2.60 billion) as of December 31, 2021. The estimated fair values have been calculated based on broker quotes or rates for the same or similar instruments and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Share-Based Payments

Mattel has various stock compensation plans, which are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Share-Based Payments" in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the Mattel, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Equity and Long-Term Compensation Plan, Mattel has the ability to grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance RSUs ("performance awards"), dividend equivalent rights, and shares of common stock to officers, employees, and other persons providing services to Mattel. Stock options are granted with exercise prices at the fair market value of Mattel's common stock on the applicable grant date and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Stock options, RSUs, and performance awards generally provide for vesting over, or at the end of, a period of three years from the date of grant.

As of March 31, 2022, two long-term incentive programs were in place with the following performance cycles: (i) a January 1, 2020–December 31, 2022 performance cycle and (ii) a January 1, 2021–December 31, 2023 performance cycle.

Compensation expense, included within other selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, related to stock options, RSUs, and performance awards is as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Mattel's provision for income taxes was $23.9 million and $20.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel recognized a net discrete tax expense of $12.2 million, primarily related to (i) undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries and (ii) reassessments of prior years' tax liabilities. As a result of the establishment of a valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets in 2017, there was no U.S. tax benefit provided for U.S. losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel recognized a net discrete tax expense of $7.3 million, primarily related to income taxes recorded on a discrete basis in various jurisdictions and reassessments of prior years' tax liabilities.

Evaluating the need for and the amount of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets often requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available evidence to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that these assets will be realizable. Mattel routinely assesses the positive and negative evidence for this realizability, including the evaluation of sustained profitability and three years of cumulative pretax income for each tax jurisdiction. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, Mattel had a valuation allowance on U.S. federal, state, and certain foreign deferred tax assets. During the second half of 2021, Mattel released the valuation allowances related to U.S. federal, state and certain foreign deferred tax assets, except for certain tax assets that are primarily expected to expire before utilization. Valuation allowance releases resulted in recognition of $540.8 million of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021. Mattel’s valuation allowance position has remained unchanged as of March 31, 2022.

In the normal course of business, Mattel is regularly audited by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities. Based on the current status of federal, state, and foreign audits, Mattel believes it is reasonably possible that in the next 12 months, the total unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $20.9 million related to the settlement of tax audits and/or the expiration of statutes of limitations. The ultimate settlement of any particular issue with the applicable taxing authority could have a material impact on Mattel's consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mattel has recorded on a discrete basis a deferred tax liability on certain foreign subsidiaries of approximately $7.7 million. For remaining undistributed foreign earnings, Mattel has not provided any deferred taxes with respect to items such as foreign withholding taxes, state income tax or foreign exchange gain or loss that would be due when cash is actually repatriated to the U.S. because those foreign earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested in the business or may be remitted substantially free of any additional local taxes. The determination of any incremental tax liability associated with these earnings is not practicable due to the complexity of local country withholding rules and interactions with tax treaties, foreign exchange considerations, and the diversity of state income tax treatment on actual distribution. Mattel will remit reinvested earnings of its foreign subsidiaries for which a deferred tax liability has been recorded when Mattel determines that it is advantageous for business operations or cash management purposes.

Litigation Related to Yellowstone do Brasil Ltda.

In April 1999, Yellowstone do Brasil Ltd. (formerly known as Trebbor Informática Ltda.) filed a lawsuit against Mattel do Brasil before the 15th Civil Court of Curitiba, State of Parana, requesting the annulment of its security bonds and promissory notes given to Mattel do Brasil as well as damages due to an alleged breach of an oral exclusive distribution agreement between the parties relating to the supply and sale of toys in Brazil. Yellowstone's complaints sought alleged loss of profits plus an unspecified amount of damages.

Mattel do Brasil filed its defenses to these claims and simultaneously presented a counterclaim for unpaid accounts receivable for goods supplied to Yellowstone.

In April 2018, Mattel do Brasil entered into a settlement agreement to resolve this matter, but the settlement was later rejected by the courts, subject to a pending appeal by Mattel.

In October 2018, the Superior Court of Justice issued a final ruling in favor of Yellowstone on the merits of Yellowstone's claims. Previously, the courts had ruled in Mattel's favor on its counterclaim.

In October 2019, Mattel reached an agreement with Yellowstone's former counsel regarding payment of the attorney's fees portion of the judgment. In November 2019, Yellowstone initiated an action to enforce its judgment against Mattel, but did not account for an offset for Mattel's counterclaim. In January 2020, Mattel obtained an injunction, staying Yellowstone's enforcement action pending resolution of Mattel's appeal to enforce the parties' April 2018 settlement. As of March 31, 2022, Mattel assessed its probable loss related to the Yellowstone matter and has accrued a reserve, which is not material.

Litigation Related to the Fisher-Price Rock 'n Play Sleeper

A number of putative class action lawsuits filed between April 2019 and October 2019 are pending against Fisher-Price, Inc. and/or Mattel, Inc. asserting claims for false advertising, negligent product design, breach of warranty, fraud, and other claims in connection with the marketing and sale of the Fisher-Price Rock 'n Play Sleeper (the "Sleeper"). In general, the lawsuits allege that the Sleeper should not have been marketed and sold as safe and fit for prolonged and overnight sleep for infants. The putative class action lawsuits propose nationwide and over 10 statewide consumer classes comprised of those who purchased the Sleeper as marketed as safe for prolonged and overnight sleep. The class actions have been consolidated before a single judge in the United States District Court for the Western District of New York for pre-trial purposes pursuant to the federal courts’ Multi-District Litigation program.

Forty additional lawsuits filed between April 2019 and April 2022 are pending against Fisher-Price, Inc. and Mattel, Inc. alleging that a product defect in the Sleeper caused the fatalities of or injuries to forty-four children. Several lawsuits have been settled and/or dismissed. Additionally, Fisher-Price, Inc. and/or Mattel, Inc. have also received letters from lawyers purporting to represent additional plaintiffs who are threatening to assert similar claims.

In addition, a stockholder has filed a derivative action in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (Kumar v. Bradley, et al., filed July 7, 2020) alleging breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment related to the development, marketing, and sale of the Sleeper. The defendants in the derivative action are certain of Mattel's current and former officers and directors. In August 2020, the derivative action was stayed pending further developments in the class action lawsuits. In August 2021, a second similar derivative action was filed in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (Armon v. Bradley, et al., filed August 30, 2021).

The lawsuits seek compensatory damages, punitive damages, statutory damages, restitution, disgorgement, attorneys’ fees, costs, interest, declaratory relief, and/or injunctive relief. Mattel believes that the allegations in the lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.

A reasonable estimate of the amount of any possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time.

Litigation and Investigations Related to Whistleblower Letter

In December 2019 and January 2020, two stockholders filed separate complaints styled as class actions against Mattel, Inc. and certain of its former officers (the "Mattel Defendants"), as well as others, in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, alleging violations of federal securities laws. The two complaints were consolidated in April 2020 and an amended complaint was filed in May 2020. The complaints rely on the results of an investigation announced by Mattel in October 2019 regarding allegations in a whistleblower letter and claim that Mattel misled the market in several of its financial statements beginning in the third quarter of 2017. The lawsuits allege that the defendants' conduct caused the plaintiffs and other stockholders to purchase Mattel common stock at artificially inflated prices, the court granted plaintiffs' motion for class certification in September 2021. Following a mediation on October 25, 2021, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle the class action lawsuits, which has been preliminarily approved by the court. In February 2022, the Mattel Defendants paid $86 million in settlement of the claims against them, which was funded in full by Mattel’s insurers. The settlement does not entail any admission of fault or liability by the Mattel Defendants, which the Mattel Defendants have expressly contested throughout the pendency of the litigation.

In addition, a stockholder has filed a derivative action in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (Moher v. Kreiz, et al., filed April 9, 2020) making allegations that are substantially identical to, or are based upon, the allegations of the class action lawsuits. The defendants in the derivative action are certain of Mattel's current and former officers and directors, Mattel, Inc., and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. Subsequently, a nearly identical derivative action was filed by a different stockholder against the same defendants. The second lawsuit is styled as an amended complaint and replaces a complaint making unrelated allegations in a previously filed lawsuit already pending in Delaware federal court (Lombardi v. Kreiz, et al., amended complaint filed April 16, 2020). In May 2020, the Moher and Lombardi derivative actions were consolidated and stayed pending further developments in the class action lawsuits. In June 2021, a third similar derivative action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (Chagnon v. Kreiz, et al., filed June 22, 2021). Seven additional derivative actions asserting similar claims are also pending in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (Owen v. Euteneuer, et al., filed May 12, 2021; Andersen v. Georgiadis, et al., filed May 18, 2021; Armon v. Euteneuer, et al., filed June 29, 2021; Haag v. Euteneuer, et al., filed September 9, 2021; Shumacher v. Kreiz, et al., filed October 19, 2021; and Mizell v. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, et al., filed October 29, 2021; and Behrens v. Euteneuer, et al., filed November 18, 2021). An additional derivative action was also filed in United States District Court for the Central District of California (City of Pontiac Police and Fire Retirement System v. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, et al. filed October 27, 2021). On March 11, 2022, the parties to the above actions engaged in a private mediation, after which defendants and certain of the plaintiffs reached an agreement in principle to settle the derivative claims asserted in certain of the actions. Any settlement remains subject to court approval.

The lawsuits seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys' fees, expert fees, costs, equitable relief and/or injunctive relief. Mattel believes that the allegations in the lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. Mattel believes that the estimated loss, if any, will be immaterial.

Mattel has also received subpoenas from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), seeking documents related to the whistleblower letter and subsequent investigation, and is responding to those subpoenas. Mattel is also responding to requests from the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York ("SDNY") related to this matter. Mattel cannot predict the eventual scope, duration or outcome of potential legal action by the SEC or SDNY, if any, or whether any such action could have a material impact on Mattel's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Revision for Immaterial Misstatements

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Revision for Immaterial Misstatements

Revision for Immaterial Misstatements

As disclosed in "Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Basis of Presentation," during the second quarter of 2021, Mattel identified misstatements for inventory tooling expenses that should have first been capitalized into inventory and a misstatement related to the timing of disbursements for certain capital expenditures that resulted in a cash flow misclassification between operating activities and investing activities. Although Mattel concluded that these misstatements were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to its current or previously issued consolidated financial statements, Mattel elected to revise its previously issued consolidated financial statements to correct for these misstatements. In connection with such revision, Mattel is also correcting for other previously identified immaterial misstatements that were previously corrected for as out of period adjustments in the period of identification.

Due to certain misstatements originating prior to 2018, the opening retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2018 was understated by $25.1 million, primarily due to the net impact of the tooling misstatement of $37.2 million, partially offset by other previously identified misstatements of $12.1 million. Such previously identified misstatements were previously corrected for as out of period adjustments and included the improper revenue recognition for certain licensing contracts executed prior to 2018 and the understatement of depreciation expense for certain fixed assets. Similarly, the opening retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2020 was understated by $16.9 million, which principally included the net impact of the tooling misstatement and an over-accrual of advertising costs.

The revision also reflects the correction of previously identified balance sheet misclassifications, including a misclassification between property, plant and equipment and other assets associated with capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing software.

The accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows have been revised to reflect the above items, inclusive of the cash flow misstatement between operating and investing activities related to capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing software and the timing of disbursements for capital expenditures.

The revision to the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, and consolidated statement of cash flows are as follows. There were no changes to the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity that have not otherwise been reflected in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income or loss as detailed in the tables below:

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only those of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and interim results of Mattel, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Mattel") as of and for the periods presented have been included.

Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Mattel identified a misstatement in its accounting for inventory tooling expenses, which were expensed to cost of sales rather than first being capitalized into the cost of inventory, which resulted in an understatement of inventory balances and a misstatement of cost of sales. Mattel also identified a misstatement related to the timing of disbursements for certain capital expenditures, which resulted in a cash flow misclassification between operating activities and investing activities. Mattel evaluated the misstatements and concluded that the misstatements were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to its current or previously issued consolidated financial statements.

To correct the immaterial misstatements, during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Mattel elected to revise its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for each of the three years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 and its unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2021, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020. The revision of the historical consolidated financial statements also includes the correction of other immaterial misstatements in its consolidated statement of operations that Mattel had previously recorded as out of period adjustments, as well as other previously identified balance sheet misclassifications. Mattel had previously determined that these misstatements did not, either individually or in the aggregate, result in a material misstatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements and reached the same conclusion when aggregating with the recently identified misstatements. Further information regarding the misstatements and related revision is included in "Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements— Revision for Immaterial Misstatements."

Mattel presented the revision of its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 in connection with the filing of its 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Mattel is presenting the revision of its previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
