Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable for interim periods and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire 2022 fiscal year. The financial information as of December 31, 2021 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Supply Chain Financing

Supply Chain Financing. We are party to several supply chain financing arrangements, in which we may sell certain of our customers’ trade accounts receivable to such customers’ financial institutions without recourse. We sell our undivided interests in certain of these receivables at our discretion when we determine that the cost of these arrangements is less than the cost of servicing our receivables with existing debt. Under the terms of the agreements, we retain no rights or interest, have no obligations with respect to the sold receivables and do not service the receivables after the sale. As such, these transactions are being accounted for as a sale. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we sold trade accounts receivable totaling $407.4 million related to these supply chain financing arrangements, of which our customers’ financial institutions applied discount fees totaling $2.9 million. We did not sell any of our trade accounts receivable during the quarter ended March 31, 2021. To the extent discount fees related to the sale of trade accounts receivable under supply chain financing arrangements are not reimbursed by our customers, they are included in Other expense, net. As of March 31, 2022, we had been and/or expected to be fully reimbursed by our customers for these discount fees.

Government Grants

Government Grants. From time-to-time, we receive grants from certain governmental agencies such as states and municipalities. We recognize government grants when we have reasonable assurance that we will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant will be received. Government grants related to property, plant and equipment are presented as a reduction to the related asset’s carrying amount. Grants related to compensation for costs already incurred or for immediate financial support, with no future related costs, are recognized as income in the period in which it is receivable.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance (“ASU 2021-10”) was issued in November 2021. Under ASU 2021-10, the accounting entities with transactions with a government that are accounted for by analogy to a grant or contribution accounting model are required to annually disclose certain information regarding the transaction including: (i) nature and related accounting policy used; (ii) line items on the balance sheet and income statement affected by the transactions; (iii) amounts applicable to each line item; and (iv) significant terms and conditions. Our adoption of ASU 2021-10 during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 using a prospective approach did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance (collectively, “Topic 848”). Topic 848 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and provides optional guidance for contract modifications and certain hedging relationships associated with the transition from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. As of March 31, 2022, some of our customers’ supply chain financing contracts have transitioned to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) to replace the London Interbank Offered

Rate (“LIBOR”). Our adoption of Topic 848 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and we will continue to assess contract modifications in accordance with Topic 848.
