Factoring arrangements
The Group has entered into several accounts receivable factoring programs with selected financial institutions for certain
receivables of the Group. The programs are accounted for as sales of the receivables and had combined limits of approximately
$713 million and $729 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Proceeds on receivables sold under our ongoing factoring programs were $1,026 million and $1,004 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Proceeds on receivables sold under our ongoing factoring programs were
$1,990 million and $1,751 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. At June 30, 2026 and
December 31, 2025, the total amount of receivables derecognized under the Group’s factoring arrangements was $418 million
and $430 million, respectively.
Starting in fiscal year 2025, the proceeds from the sale of accounts receivables consisted of only cash. Prior to January 1,
2025, the proceeds from the sale of certain of these receivables was comprised of a combination of cash and deferred purchase
price receivable. The deferred purchase price receivable was ultimately realized by the Group following the collection by the
financial institutions of the underlying receivables sold. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the beginning deferred
purchase price balance was $2 million, of which $2 million was fully collected in cash. This resulted in an ending deferred
purchase price receivable balance of $0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, recorded in Fair value of derivative
instruments and other financial assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Group has recorded $5 million and $6 million of expenses related to its factoring programs in the three months ended
June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Group has recorded $9 million and $11 million of expenses related to its factoring
programs in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These amounts are presented in Other gains and losses
– net in its Interim Consolidated Income Statement.
