Board of Directors and Auditor    2

A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR &
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER 

DELIVERING ON OUR CUSTOMER-INSPIRED STRATEGY AND INNOVATIONS IN 2022

CNH Industrial finished its first year as a focused agriculture and construction business with an impressive set of results 
and accomplishments. Our dedicated team of over 38,000 employees redoubled their focus on customers and worked 
tirelessly to deliver for them in spite of challenging supply chains, significant geopolitical risks and persistent inflation. 
We face the future with energy and optimism, centered on our purpose of Breaking New Ground through Innovation, 
Sustainability, and Productivity.

We unveiled this purpose, together with our new strategic priorities and 2024 financial objectives, at our Capital Markets 
Day in February. Our targets and detailed product roadmaps for both the agriculture and construction segments were 
welcomed by the financial community and other stakeholders. Given market uncertainties we were deliberately cautious 
in our forecasting and, at least to some extent, this was validated by the adverse conditions that arose during 2022. 

The agriculture and construction industries that support our business are cyclical, so we were pleased that demand in 
both remained robust throughout the year, particularly in the Americas. Inflation was high throughout most of the world, 
but  our  businesses  were  diligent  about  maintaining  price  over  cost.  We  believe  planning  conservatively  is  the  most 
prudent way to manage the business for our stakeholders, but as we demonstrated in 2022, this does not prevent us 
from capturing upside if markets outperform our expectations.

Our global team will always work with integrity and purpose to meet or exceed any standard we set. We wish to thank 
them for embracing our priorities and making them their own. Alongside their daily work, they have been integral to our 
Culture Transformation. This asks every person, in every part of the business, to adopt our cultural beliefs and take an 
accountable and collaborative approach to achieve our common goals. 

OUTSTANDING RESULTS AND A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR OUR AGRICULTURE BUSINESS(*)

With the support of his leadership team, Derek Neilson is implementing an ambitious plan to advance our agriculture 
business.  Case  IH,  New  Holland Agriculture,  and  Steyr  are  globally  recognized  brands  that  have  served  farmers  for 
generations and are supported by a comprehensive network of knowledgeable and dedicated dealers. 

The acquisition and subsequent integration of Raven Industries has been foundational to enhancing CNH Industrial’s 
precision farming offerings and accelerating our intent of marrying our great iron with great tech, which we introduced at 
our Capital Markets Day. Throughout 2022, by combining Raven’s significant expertise in digital agriculture, precision 
technology and autonomous farming systems with our in-house capabilities, we reduced product development time and 
cost  while  improving  our  equipment’s  efficiency  and  productivity.  One  example  of  this  was  our  introduction  of  the 
industry’s first autonomous spreader, the Case IH Trident. We also launched driver-assisted products that are available 
either  as  retrofits  or  integrated  into  our  proprietary  products.  We  know  that  precision  farming  is  fundamental  to  our 
customers  and  therefore  we  also  substantially  expanded  our  technical  talent  base  –  building  on  the  significant  talent 
that Raven brings – increasing the size of this group by 50%. Overall R&D spending in agriculture increased by 40%, 
also reflecting our intent to further accelerate the pace of our innovation. 

We are proud of the new technology that we have been able to deliver for our customers this year, but will never stop 
working  to  be  better.  By  continuing  to  integrate  sensor-driven  data  analysis,  automation  and  autonomy,  and  more 
sustainable powertrain solutions into our equipment, we will enhance farmers’ efficiency and productivity while helping 
them protect the environment. 

These  technological  developments,  underpinned  by  strong  operational  execution,  positively  impacted  product  quality, 
delivery,  and  dealer  support  and  resulted  in  substantial  Net  Promoter  Score  gains. This  strong  execution,  which  was 
particularly illustrated by our outstanding performance in the Americas, drove the segment’s record financial results for 
the year: Net Sales of $18 billion, +22% vs. 2021; Adjusted EBIT of $2.5 billion +$646 million vs. 2021; and Adjusted 
EBIT margin of 13.7% +140 bps vs. 2021. 

IMPROVING RESULTS AND STRATEGIC OUTLOOK FOR CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT(*)

Our  construction  business  also  had  a  strong  year  in  2022,  one  that  demonstrated  both  the  successful  turnaround 
achieved  by  Stefano  Pampalone  and  his  team,  and  the  future  potential  of  this  business.  The  team  has  continued  to 
improve  the  competitiveness  of  our  offering  and  to  position  the  business  better  to  serve  our  dealers  and  customers. 
They are taking full advantage of synergies between our agriculture and construction businesses such as supply chain, 
real world applications, and component compatibility. 

Letter from the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer    3

Our construction business is also beginning to see the results of our long-term investment in this segment. The first full 
year with our newly-acquired Sampierana business – a European brand with specific expertise in mini excavators – saw 
their  products  drive  notable  growth,  particularly  in  Europe.  We  are  investing  in  specific  product  lines,  such  as  heavy 
excavators, and are working hard to serve our customers in that high growth segment. Further investment is foreseen in 
electrification and in selected markets where there are the biggest opportunities for growth, such as India. 

Looking  to  the  future  we  are  conscious  that  the  construction  industry  faces  challenges  with  rising  interest  rates 
impacting  housing  in  many  markets.  However,  having  discontinued  our  sub-scale  construction  business  in  China  last 
year, we no longer have exposure to that difficult market. Infrastructure spending is also expected to be strong in North 
America, and our lean organization is well positioned to respond to dynamic global construction market conditions. 

All of these efforts saw the construction segment deliver  record financials in 2022 including Net Sales of $3.6  billion, 
+16% vs. 2021; Adjusted EBIT of $124 million +$34 million vs. 2021; and Adjusted EBIT margin of 3.5% +60 bps vs. 
2021. While there is still much work to do to achieve our 2024 construction EBIT margin target of 5.5% to 6.5%, we are 
confident that we can achieve this interim goal and additional profitable growth beyond it.

Our  Full  Year  Financials(*)  reflect  the  success  of  the  company's  efforts  across  both  our  segments.  Consolidated 
revenues were $23.6 billion - up 21% from the previous year. Net income - $2 billion - and earnings per share - $1.49 - 
were the highest in our company's history. This solid growth is reflective of strong end markets and the sharp execution 
of our strategy.

In March, we launched a share buyback program which involved the intermittent repurchase of up to 100 million euros' 
worth  of  the  Company's  common  shares,  which  was  concluded  in September  2022.  In  July,  we  announced  a  further 
$300 million share buyback program, $50 million of which we allocated in the year.

TECH MILESTONES

As  part  of  our  strategy  to  enhance  our  technology  offering,  in  2022  we  expanded  our  R&D  footprint,  unveiled  the 
agriculture  industry's  first  dynamic  simulator  for  virtual  testing,  and  invested  to  speed  up  the  development  of  our 
technology stack. We released competitive new products, and accelerated future initiatives, in both the agricultural and 
construction businesses.

In particular, for precision technology related sales, we delivered more than 30% growth in 2022, and forecast a 10 - 
15%  annual  growth  rate  across  the  next  two  to  three  years.  In  2023  we  expect  these  technologies  to  deliver  an 
estimated  $1  billion  in  net  sales  contribution  from  precision  technology  components  (these  include  technology 
contained in wholegoods, retrofit components, and Raven third-party sales). The pace of our precision-enabled product 
launches will accelerate in 2024 and beyond.

We  inaugurated  three  R&D  centers  to  further  our  global  work  in  customer-inspired  innovation.  The  India  Technology 
Center located in New Delhi, India, is focused on product development and digital solutions. The Advanced Engineering 
Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA, develops digital, automation and autonomous technologies while our newly opened 
facility in Detroit, Michigan, USA, is working on electrification projects.

In December, we showcased our precision technology and alternative fuels programs and products at our Tech Day. 
Investors,  analysts  and  journalists  witnessed  the  real-world  readiness  of  this  ag-tech  to  boost  efficiency,  yields,  and 
ultimately  profitability  for  farmers  everywhere.  Autonomous  tillage,  advanced  combine  automation  and  precision 
spraying technology were just three of the productivity-enhancing technologies on display.

We  also  reaffirmed  our  leadership  in  alternative  fuels  in  2022  -  both  in  electrification  and  natural  gas.  We  unveiled 
further  electrified  construction  equipment  models  -  focusing  on  the  mini-excavator  segment  -  which  provide  zero 
emission and quiet operation, ideal when working in urban areas or inside buildings. We also introduced the world's first 
liquefied natural gas pre-production prototype tractor, the New Holland T7 Methane Power LNG (T7 LNG). This follows 
our  commercial  release  of  the  world’s  first  compressed  natural  gas  tractor  which  provides  farmers  with  a  profitable, 
sustainable,  and  energy-independent  means  to  work  their  land. The T7  LNG  can  be  fueled  by  biomethane  produced 
from a farm's crop and livestock waste, providing significant fuel cost savings and substantial environmental benefits. 
Biomethane can also be used to generate electricity, and its production creates organic fertilizer as a byproduct, further 
reducing a farmer's input costs.

Letter from the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer    4

The T7 LNG is also an example of our ongoing work with partners that are applying new technologies to make farming 
more  efficient,  sustainable  and  cost-effective.  In  this  specific  case  we  are  working  with  Bennamann,  an  UK-based 
expert in capturing and repurposing fugitive methane emissions for energy use.

Our collaboration with Bennamann is one example of the work of CNH Industrial Ventures, which was formed in early 
2022 to manage our strategic partnerships with innovative enterprises. Its focus is to spearhead breakthrough change 
in agriculture and construction through strategic investments. CNH Industrial Ventures is also managing a set of other 
partnerships, including:

▪ Monarch  Tractor,  a  dynamic  newcomer  in  the  electrified  agriculture  vehicles  space,  with  unique  capabilities  in 
automation. We displayed our first joint result at Tech Day – the New Holland T4 Electric Power, the world’s first 
electric utility tractor with autonomous features.

▪ Augmenta,  a  machine  vision  solutions  company  founded  by  farmers  in  Greece,  that  provides  a  cost-effective 

means of enabling see and act technology.

▪ Stout Industrial Technology, a US-based startup focused on AI-powered smart agricultural implements, expands 

our mechanical weeding product offering and will accelerate our development of further cultivation solutions.

FURTHER CONSOLIDATION FOR FINANCIAL SERVICES

Our  financing  division  worked  diligently  to  continue  integrating  our  commercial  lending  solutions  and  enhance  our 
receivables portfolio in 2022. Our North American entities – CNH Industrial Capital America and CNH Industrial Capital 
Canada  –  successfully  completed  the  purchase  of  our  commercial  revolving  account  receivables,  previously  held  by 
Citibank under a white label agreement. This brought 163,000 customer accounts in-house for a portfolio totaling $238 
million.  It  has  given  us  the  ability  to  directly  support  more  of  our  customers  and  further  enhances  our  flexibility  and 
product offering for the aftermarket needs of our dealers and customers.

OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE

Our  Purchasing,  Logistics  and  Manufacturing  teams  worked  steadfastly  to  mitigate  supply  chain  pressures  in  2022. 
Their stalwart efforts allowed us, in conjunction with an overloaded supply base, to complete and ship units on time for 
our dealers and customers.

Building  better  supplier  relationships  is  the  focus  of  our  multi-year  Strategic  Sourcing  Program  (SSP).  Its  aim  is  to 
ensure  that  we  partner  with  the  best  suppliers  in  the  world  for  each  product  category,  working  closely  with  them  to 
capture what we call ‘Best Total Value’. This approach considers a whole host of parameters - including quality, delivery, 
service, working capital, and, of course, price - to deliver the optimal solution for the product or service being sourced. 
We  expect  this  program  to  drive  significant  margin  expansion  and  long-term  pricing  stability  in  2023  and  beyond. To 
launch  the  SSP,  we  held  our  first  global  supplier  conventions  in  the  fall  of  2022,  hosting  over  800  existing  and 
prospective component suppliers for the initial phase.

Our  plants  and  depots  were  the  first  areas  of  our  company  to  implement  the  continuous  improvement  practices 
introduced through our new CNH Industrial Business System (CBS). Building on our strong foundation of World Class 
Manufacturing, CBS renews our emphasis on Lean and strategic breakthrough results to drive improvements in quality, 
delivery  and  innovation,  yielding  better  products  and  margins.  This  proven  model  adopts  a  simple  and  focused 
approach to create value for customers and eliminate waste from every business process.

A YEAR OF ACHIEVEMENTS

We were pleased to receive continued recognition from leading financial, institutional and industry bodies in 2022. This 
included both Fitch Ratings and Moody's Investors Service upgrading our ratings in the first quarter of 2022 - setting a 
positive tone for the year with our shareholders; and our Brands receiving Innovation, Technology and Design awards 
from leading international authorities.

SUSTAINABILITY STEWARDSHIP

We  began  a  new  chapter  in  our  long-term  commitment  to  sustainability  by  signing  up  to  the  Science-Based  Targets 
Initiative (SBTi) at the start of the year. It furthers our pledge to reducing our carbon footprint, ensuring the sustainable 
lifecycle  of  our  products  and  increasing  the  eco-efficiency  of  our  operating  sites,  among  other  goals.  We  were  again 
recognized  by  inclusion  in  the  CDP's  A-List  for  global  climate  change  stewardship,  our  12th  consecutive  year  being 
named as the Industry top scorer by the Dow Jones Sustainability World and Europe Indices, and our 9th consecutive 
MSCI ESG AAA rating.

We also continued to work on creating more equal opportunities through a series of projects at local level, such as the 
upskilling of women for the construction sector. Our employee-enabling approach has helped us achieve certifications 
as a Great Place to Work ® in seven of our major markets. 

Letter from the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer    5

We also believe in supporting our local communities, with our focus this year of course being on Ukraine. At the start of 
the war, we donated $500,000 to support humanitarian relief. Following this, we ran an employee fundraiser to collect 
donations for the Red Cross and UNICEF, which we matched dollar for dollar.

These  are  just  some  of  our  numerous  ESG  initiatives  and  programs. You  can  find  out  more  about  these  in  our  2022 
Sustainability Report, which will be issued on the day of our Annual General Meeting on April 14, 2023. 

SOLID GOVERNANCE FOR SOLID GROWTH

Our  Board  of  Directors  remains  instrumental  in  providing  the  oversight  and  wisdom  required  to  ensure  we  are 
embarking upon, and achieving, judicious plans and strategic priorities. They challenge the executive team on a wide 
range  of  topics  from  precision  technology  to  culture  change,  and  they  actively  guide  us  to  become  a  more  focused, 
efficient, and effective company. In September we mourned the loss of John Lanaway, our longstanding and incredibly 
dedicated and effective Audit Chair and a greatly respected friend. He has been ably succeeded by Karen Linehan, who 
is actively building on his legacy.

THE YEAR AHEAD

Building upon the solid foundations laid in 2022, we see continuing strength in most end markets, better performing 
supply chains, and moderating inflation. 

As such, we are providing the following 2023 outlook for our Industrial Activities:

▪

▪

▪

▪

Net sales(**) up between 6% and 10% year on year;

SG&A up, no more than 5% vs 2022;
Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities(***) between $1.3 bn and $1.5 bn;

R&D expenses and capital expenditures at around $1.6 bn.

We  have  confidence  in  the  demand  for  agricultural  equipment  and  continued  profitable  growth  from  our  construction 
business.

2022  was  a  year  of  tremendous  progress  -  financial,  sustainable  and  technological  -  and  we  are  excited  to  continue 
Breaking  New  Ground  and  delivering  products  and  services  that  advance  the  noble  work  of  farmers  and  builders.  In 
closing, we would like to thank you for your ongoing support and partnership.

Sincerely,

Suzanne Heywood                                                                       Scott W. Wine

North America; (2) Europe, Middle East and Africa; (3) South America and (4) Asia Pacific. The geographic designations 
have the following meanings: 

▪ North America: United States, Canada and Mexico;

▪ Europe,  Middle  East,  and  Africa:  member  countries  of  the  European  Union,  European  Free Trade Association,  the 
United  Kingdom,  Ukraine  and  Balkans,  Russia, Turkey,  Uzbekistan,  Pakistan,  the African  continent  and  the  Middle 
East;

▪ South America: Central and South America, and the Caribbean Islands; and

▪ Asia Pacific: Continental Asia (including the India subcontinent), Indonesia, and Oceania.

Certain industry and market share information in this Annual Report has been presented on a worldwide basis which 
includes all countries. In this Annual Report, management estimates of market share information are generally based 
on  retail  unit  sales  data  in  North America,  on  registrations  of  equipment  in  most  of  Europe,  Brazil,  and  various  other 
markets,  and  on  retail  and  shipment  unit  data  collected  by  a  central  information  bureau  appointed  by  equipment 
manufacturers associations, including the Association of Equipment Manufacturers in North America, the Committee for 
European  Construction  Equipment  in  Europe,  the Associação  Nacional  dos  Fabricantes  de  Veículos Automotores  in 
Brazil,  the  Japan  Construction  Equipment  Manufacturers  Association,  and  the  Korea  Construction  Equipment 
Manufacturers  Association,  as  well  as  on  other  shipment  data  collected  by  independent  service  bureaus.  Not  all 
agricultural  or  construction  equipment  is  registered,  and  registration  data  may  thus  underestimate,  perhaps 
substantially,  actual  retail  industry  unit  sales  demand,  particularly  for  local  manufacturers  in  China,  Southeast  Asia, 
Eastern Europe, Russia, Turkey, Brazil, and any country where local shipments are not reported.

Iveco Group N.V. Demerger

During 2021, CNH Industrial completed a strategic project to separate the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business”) from the 
Agriculture business, the Construction business, and the related Financial Services business.

The Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. in accordance with Section 2:334a (3) of the Dutch 
Civil  Code  (Burgerlijk  Wetboek)  by  way  of  a  legal  statutory  demerger  (juridische  afsplitsing)  to  Iveco  Group  N.V.  (the 
“Demerger”), effective January 1, 2022.

On January 3, 2022, Iveco Group N.V. common shares began trading on the Euronext Milan, under the ticker symbol 
‘IVG’. As a result of the Demerger, each holder of CNH Industrial N.V. common shares (and special voting shares as the 
case may be) received one Iveco Group N.V. share for every five CNH Industrial N.V. common shares (or special voting 
share as the case may be) held at close of business on the record date for allocation (January 4, 2022). Since January 

Board Report   Presentation of Financial and Certain Other Information    7

3, 2022, CNH Industrial N.V. and Iveco Group N.V. have been quoted separately on the regulated markets and operate 
as independent listed companies, each with its own management and Board of Directors.

As the transaction took effect on January 1, 2022, the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022, relate 
to  CNH  Industrial  remaining  business.  Moreover,  in  accordance  with  IFRS  5  – Non-current  Assets  Held  for  Sale  and 
Discontinued  Operations  for  the  corresponding  information  of  earlier  periods,  the  Iveco  Group  Business  is  classified 
and presented as Discontinued Operations in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

For  additional  details  of  items  presented  under  Discontinued  Operations  in  the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Income, 
Financial Position and Cash Flows, refer to the section “Significant accounting policies - Iveco Group Business Spin-off 
and Discontinued Operations”.

Additionally, as the Demerger is a “business combination involving entities or businesses under common control”, it is 
outside the scope of application of IFRS 3 – Business Combinations and IFRIC 17- Distributions of Non-cash Assets to 
Owners.  Accordingly,  in  the  2022  consolidated  financial  statements  for  CNH  Industrial  Post-Demerger  the  opening 
position  for  items  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  will  be  equivalent  to  the  carrying  amounts  reported  in  the 
consolidated financial statements of CNH Industrial Pre-Demerger. 

Until December 31, 2021, CNH Industrial N.V. owned and controlled the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the "Iveco Group Business" or the "On-
Highway  Business"),  which  are  classified  as  Discontinued  Operations,  as  well  as  the  Agriculture  business,  the 
Construction business, and the related Financial Services business (collectively, the "Off-Highway Business") which are 
classified as Continuing Operations, as following:

OUR  COMMITMENT  TO  SUSTAINABLE 
DEVELOPMENT AND LONG-TERM VALUE 
CREATION 

CNH  Industrial  is  committed  to  building  a  better  future,  by  integrating  sustainability  in  its  day-to-day  activities  and 
engaging  all  employees.  The  full  integration  of  environmental  and  social  considerations  with  economic  objectives 
enables the Group to identify potential risks and seize additional development opportunities, resulting in a process of 
continuous, and sustainable, improvement that creates value over the long-term. 

As evidence of this, CNH Industrial includes strategic sustainability targets in its Strategic Business Plan that are in line 
with its priorities; these in turn are based on internal assessment and stakeholder engagement.

The priorities and targets are aligned with the six UN Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs") most relevant to CNH 
Industrial:

▪ SDG 2: Zero hunger - end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture;

▪ SDG 3: Good health and well-being - ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all ages;

▪ SDG 8: Decent work and economic growth - promote sustained, inclusive, and sustainable economic growth, full and 

productive employment, and decent work for all;

▪ SDG 10: Reduced inequalities - reduce inequality within and among countries;

▪ SDG 12: Responsible consumption and production - ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns; 

▪ SDG 13: Climate action - take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.

These SDGs inspire CNH Industrial’s future endeavors in terms of sustainability targets, practices, and projects.

Board Report   Our Commitment to Sustainable Development and Long-term Value Creation    9

Board Report   Our Commitment to Sustainable Development and Long-term Value Creation    10

The  targets  were  incorporated  into  the  Sustainability  Plan,  which  expresses  CNH  Industrial’s  commitment  to 
contributing  to  a  better  future. The  Sustainability  Plan,  which  also  includes  short-term  targets,  is  updated  annually  to 
report the progress of existing projects and establish new targets to ensure continuous improvement, essential for long-
term growth and value creation.

Sustainability  is  a  core  element  of  CNH  Industrial’s  Corporate  Governance,  with  senior  management  playing  a  direct 
and active role. The Environmental, Social, and Governance Committee (the "Environmental, Social, and Governance 
Committee")  of  the  Board  of  Directors  ("Board")  is  responsible  for,  among  other  things,  assisting  the  Board  in: 
monitoring  and  evaluating  reports  on  CNH  Industrial’s  sustainable  development  policies  and  practices,  management 
standards,  strategy,  global  performance  and  governance;  reviewing,  assessing,  and  making  recommendations  on 
strategic  sustainability  guidelines,  including  occupational  health  and  safety  and  climate-related  issues;  and  reviewing 
the CNH Industrial’s annual Sustainability Report(1).

CNH  Industrial  has  established  an  organizational  structure  made  up  of  global  and  regional  sustainability  committees 
and the Sustainability Team in order to optimize the management of sustainability aspects within the Group.

The  Sustainability  Steering  Committee  (“SSC”)  is  a  committee  of  the  Senior  Leadership  Team  ("SLT"),  and  is 
responsible  for  identifying  sustainability  strategies,  integrating  them  with  business  needs,  adopting  a  medium-to-long 
term vision, and providing a forum for communication and benchmarking among the geographic areas.

The SSC is chaired by the Chief Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability and Transformation Officer, and is coordinated by 
the Sustainability Unit. The permanent members of the committee are the SLT members.

The Sustainability Team is a network of experts responsible for incorporating sustainability criteria more effectively into 
the Group strategy and for ensuring the necessary support for sustainability planning and reporting. The Sustainability 
Team is overseen by the Chief Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability and Transformation Officer and comprises personnel 
with global expertise, as well as the Global Social Initiatives team, composed of the representatives for local community 
initiatives. 

CNH Industrial's sustainability management system consists of the following tools:

▪ the Code of Conduct, approved by the Board of Directors, and related policies that set out the Group’s approach to 

key topics; 

▪ a set of policies to manage specific issues, as well as the Human Capital Management Guidelines, Green Logistics 

Principles, and the Supplier Code of Conduct; 

▪ the materiality analysis, which defines social and environmental priorities; 

▪ stakeholder engagement on material topics; 

▪ a  set  of  comprehensive  sustainability-related  Key  Performance  Indicators,  designed  to  provide  comprehensive 
coverage of all the key environmental, social, and governance aspects, in line with the GRI Sustainability Reporting 
Standards  ("GRI  Standards")  and  the  Sustainability  Accounting  Standards  (“SASB  Standards”)  and  those  of  the 
major sustainability rating agencies;

▪ the  Sustainability  Plan,  also  including  the  strategic  sustainability  targets,  which  identifies  priorities  and  tracks 

commitments undertaken; and

▪ the annual Sustainability Report, which discloses the Group’s sustainability performance.

The  Sustainability  Report,  prepared  on  a  voluntary  basis  and  in  line  with  GRI  Standards  and  SASB  Standards, 
integrates  the  economic  aspects  described  herein  with  a  comprehensive  view  of  the  environmental  and  social 
performance of CNH Industrial’s operations. 

Materiality analysis 

The  materiality  analysis  is  a  tool  that  CNH  Industrial  uses  to  ensure  close  alignment  between  the  material  topics 
identified and its business decisions, increasingly integrating sustainability principles into its daily activities. According to 
this  approach,  topics  are  considered  material  if  they  reflect  CNH  Industrial’s  economic,  environmental,  and  social 
impact, or influence the decisions of stakeholders. 

CNH Industrial's Materiality Matrix reflects how frequently each material topic was selected. It was shared with the SLT 
members, reviewed by the SSC, and reviewed and approved by the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"). The final phase 
involved third party assurance of compliance, in which the Matrix development process was audited by an independent 
company. 

CNH Industrial also performed a specific analysis in order to identify the link between the SDGs most relevant to the 
business (the 6 SDGs aligned with the commitments stated in the Sustainability Plan) and the 14 material topics.

(1)  The 2022 Sustainability Report will be made available on the Company’s website as of April 14, 2023, the day of the 2022 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Board Report   Our Commitment to Sustainable Development and Long-term Value Creation    11

The  Materiality  Matrix  confirms  the  greater  significance  of  business-related  aspects,  in  line  with  the  sustainability 
priorities defined within CNH Industrial's Strategic Business Plan. Specifically, from a circular economy perspective, the 
material  topic  Circular  Product  Life  Cycle  was  considered,  both  within  and  outside  the  Group,  as  one  of  the  most 
relevant  to  CNH  Industrial,  highlighting  the  importance  of  adopting  alternative  solutions  that  minimize  the  impact  of  a 
product’s  life  cycle.  CO2  and  Other Air  Emissions  was  also  one  of  the  most  relevant  topics,  considering  not  only  the 
impact  of  manufacturing  processes,  but  also  of  the  entire  value  chain  (logistics,  supply  chain,  and  product  use). The 
topic  Occupational  Health  and  Safety  ranked  among  the  most  relevant  to  both  the  Company  and  its  stakeholders, 
highlighting  the  importance  of  an  approach  based  on  effective  preventive  and  protective  measures  that  involves  all 
employees.

four  thematic  areas  showing  how  the  Group  is  addressing  climate-change  risks  and  opportunities:  Governance, 
Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Targets. For further details, please see the TCFD correspondence table at 
the end of this section. 

Governance 

The  highest  responsibility  for  defining  and  implementing  the  strategy  of  CNH  Industrial  is  assigned  to  the  Board  of 
Directors. The Environmental, Social, and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible, among other 
things,  for  assisting  the  Board  in  reviewing  and  guiding  the  strategy  and  risk  management  policies  related  to  climate 
change.  Moreover,  the  Committee  is  responsible  for  monitoring  the  implementation  of  the  measures  to  meet  climate 
change targets, such as CO2 emissions and energy efficiency. The Committee meets quarterly and, at least twice per 
year, the Chief Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability and Transformation Officer updates the Environmental, Social, and 
Governance Committee on the progress of CO2 emissions reduction and energy efficiency in manufacturing.
At the management level, the highest responsibility for initiatives focusing on energy efficiency and on the management 
of CO2 emissions at CNH Industrial lies with the Senior Leadership Team (“SLT”). 
SLT members are also members of the Sustainability Steering Committee (“SSC”). The SSC is responsible for defining 
sustainability  strategy  and  for  integrating  sustainability  aspects  into  operating  processes,  and  is  chaired  by  the  Chief 
Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability and Transformation Officer.

The  operating  segments  of  CNH  Industrial  are  fully  responsible  for  the  global  growth  and  performance  of  their 
respective  businesses,  thereby  increasing  focus  and  accountability.  For  this  reason,  the  different  segments  have 
nominated  specific  committees  responsible  for  the  implementation  and  monitoring  of  the  Group’s  strategy.  Climate-
change issues are regularly discussed by these committees to ensure responsible management of climate risks and to 
identify  trends  and  opportunities,  including  potential  impacts  of  new  product  development  and  new  market 
considerations. 
Additionally, the Risk Management Center of Competence addresses all stages of pure risk(2) management, including 
risk identification, analysis, and treatment (including loss prevention).

To further align the management commitment to climate-change mitigation, part of the CEO’s and other SLT members’ 
remuneration  is  linked  to  sustainability  targets,  such  as  the  reduction  of  CO2  emissions  per  production  unit.  The 
remuneration of the management is reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. 

Targets  are  defined  for  business  unit  and  energy  managers  and  are  related  to  energy  consumption  reduction  and 
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction. Targets are included in the Performance Management Process.

Strategy

CNH  Industrial’s  sustainability  strategy  is  framed  within  the  Company’s  purpose,  Breaking  New  Ground,  which 
incorporates a set of values that lie at the core of the Company’s day-to-day activities and are intrinsically linked to its 
future business success. Specific to climate change, and as described further below, CNH Industrial has an established 
risk management process that includes the assessment and monitoring of climate-related risk. These assessments are 
used  by  the  CNH  Industrial  to  identify  not  only  risk  exposure,  but  also  opportunities,  on  which  the  Group’s  climate 
change strategy is based. The identification of these climate-related risks and opportunities, along with the analysis of 
sustainability  macrotrends,  led  to  the  definition  of  a  decarbonization  strategy,  which  in  turn  has  been  incorporated 
within, and regularly influences, the Group’s Strategic Business Plan. To further address the potential impacts of climate 
change,  CNH  Industrial  has  implemented  relevant  projects  and  a  number  of  other  specific  climate-related  topics  and 
has defined long-term strategic targets.

Climate-related  risks  and  opportunities  are  embedded  within  CNH  Industrial’s  strategy  to  ensure  resiliency  of  its 
business model in light of shifting global challenges. CNH Industrial has established specific functions and structures 
within its respective operating segments to monitor the relevant emerging policies and regulatory developments at local 
and  global  level.  Resulting  analyses  are  incorporated  within  the  Group  strategy  to  ensure  full  compliance  with 
applicable  laws.  CNH  Industrial  develops  its  product  portfolio  to  steer  the  focus  of  research  and  development  toward 
sustainable  technologies  (e.g.  “green”  fuels,  electric  and  hydrogen  propulsion  technologies,  digitalization  and  related 
intelligent  capabilities  that  include  precision  farming  and  smart  water  management,  etc.).  CNH  Industrial  also  takes 
advantage  of  the  collaboration  with  strategic  business  partners,  startups,  and  external  expertise  in  the  emerging 
technology sector. 

To ensure the timely delivery of its strategy, CNH Industrial has established specific targets linked to the environmental 
performance  of  its  manufacturing  processes,  logistics,  and  product  portfolio,  as  outlined  in  the  section  Metrics  and 
Targets below.

CNH Industrial developed a scenario analysis which led to the identification of the Internal Price of Carbon (“IPoC”), an 
indicator that enables it to prioritize energy-saving projects based on their ability to generate the greatest reduction in 
CO2 emissions.

(2)   Pure risks are risks resulting from natural causes or accidental or malicious acts (fires, explosions, floods, etc.) that may result not only in damage to goods or facilities, but also in the short or long-term 

interruption of operations.

Risk Management

Enterprise Risk Management

Risk management is an important component of CNH Industrial’s overall culture and is integral to the achievement of its 
long-term business plan. Accordingly, CNH Industrial’s Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) framework is designed to 
assist  in  the  identification,  evaluation,  and  prioritization  of  business  risks,  followed  by  a  coordinated  and  balanced 
application of resources to identify, monitor, and control the probability or impact of adverse events or to maximize the 
realization of opportunities. 

CNH Industrial's ERM processes are aligned with the Group’s Sustainability Program and its strategic sustainability 
targets and aspirational goals, including those related to climate change, which are articulated in the Group’s Strategic 
Business Plan.  
The effects of climate change represent a key emerging risk to CNH Industrial and, as referenced above, examples of 
its  related  mitigation  actions  include  investments  in  technology  as  part  of  its  decarbonization  strategy,  and  efforts  to 
reduce energy consumption in manufacturing processes.

More  details  on  CNH  Industrial’s  enterprise  risk  management  framework,  including  its  risk  appetite  for  individual  risk 
categories, can be found in the Risk Management and Control System section of this Report.

Pure Risk Management

In order to strengthen sustainability and resilience within CNH Industrial, the Group also works to develop and launch 
forward-looking solutions to better understand the impacts of natural hazards and to respond accordingly. The ability to 
assess  the  losses  and  costs  associated  with  natural  hazards  is  essential  for  better  decision  making  on  hazard-
mitigation investments and planning.

CNH  Industrial’s  Risk  Management  function  has  developed  an  innovative  risk  management  methodology  in 
collaboration with the Group’s EHS (Environment Health & Safety) departments, a major international consultancy and 
certification  firm,  and  an  insurance  partner.  This  methodology  has  enabled  CNH  Industrial  to:  (i)  obtain  objective, 
quantified knowledge of insurable environmental exposures; (ii) improve risk profiles according to the segments’ EHS 
strategies; (iii) identify and clearly communicate priorities and benefits; (iv) effectively inform the insurance market about 
the  loss  prevention  activities  in  place  to  prevent  or  mitigate  potential  environmental  losses;  (v)  obtain  adequate 
environmental insurance coverage, commensurate with risk exposures and current loss prevention activities; (vi) carry 
out  prevention  activities  in  line  with  Group  strategies'. These  activities  provided  the  basis  for  the  development  of  the 
Group’s  first  environmental  maps,  which  quantify  the  overall  level  of  risk  using  a  scientific,  certified  self-assessment 
tool.  The  results  were  presented  to  the  insurance  market  as  evidence  that  CNH  Industrial’s  environmental  risks  are 
known,  well-quantified,  and  properly  managed.  The  results  also  led  to  comprehensive  global  insurance  coverage. A 
similar approach is being followed for earthquake and flood risks.

Metrics and targets

CNH Industrial has developed various indicators and tools to assess its contribution, exposure, and resilience to climate 
change.  CO2  emissions  are  calculated  according  to  the  Greenhouse  Gas  Protocol  (GHG  Protocol),  incorporated  into 
CNH Industrial Guidelines.

EU Taxonomy on sustainable activities 

The  EU  Taxonomy  classification  system  introduced  by  the  Regulation  2020/852  establishes  a  list  of  environmentally 
sustainable  economic  activities,  supporting  the  EU  Green  Deal  objectives.  The  Regulation  provides  for  common 
definitions that identify when an economic activity can be considered as environmentally sustainable. 
There  are  currently  six  environmental(1)  objectives  in  the  EU  Taxonomy,  two  of  which  are  now  regulated:  Climate 
Change Mitigation and Climate Change Adaptation, while the remaining four will be regulated during 2023. 

For  each  objective,  the  EU  Taxonomy  defines  the  list  of  economic  activities  that  can  substantially  contribute  to  it, 
provided that it meets the related technical screening criteria (TSC)(2).
Starting  from  2022,  companies  are  required  to  disclose  the  proportion  of  turnover,  capital  expenditure  (CapEx),  and 
operating  expenditure  (OpEx)  of  Taxonomy  eligible  and  non-eligible  activities:  i.e.  those  activities  included  within 
Annexes 1 and 2 of Delegated Act 2139/2021 irrespective of whether they meet any or all of the technical screening 
criteria.  From  this  reporting  year  on,  companies  are  required  to  disclose  their  aligned  KPI  as  well:  for  each  eligible 
activity, company shall then assess if the activity:

• meets the substantial contribution criteria;

• meets the do no significant harm (DNSH) criteria; and

• complies with minimum safeguards referred to in Art. 18 of the Regulation 852.

Eligibility assessment of CNH Industrial economic activities’

CNH Industrial conducted an eligibility assessment of its core business activities and operations, comparing the latter 
against the subsections of Annexes I and II of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139. 

In this context, CNH Industrial identified as eligible the production of electric traction technologies, which falls within the 
definition of the activity 3.6 – “Manufacture of other low carbon technologies”.

Moreover,  the  Group  identified  a  list  of  additional  activities,  related  to  expenses  incurred  during  2022  that  can  be 
considered  individually  as  Taxonomy-eligible  investments,  as  contributing  to  the  aim  to  reduce  Group’s  greenhouse 
emissions(3):

• 4.15 - District heating/cooling distribution;

• 4.16 - Installation and operation of electric heat pumps;

• 4.25 - Production of heat/cool using waste heat;

• 6.5 - Transport by motorbikes, passenger cars and light commercial vehicles;

• 7.2 - Renovation of existing buildings;

• 7.3 - Installation, maintenance and repair of energy efficiency equipment;

• 7.5  -  Installation,  maintenance  and  repair  of  instruments  and  devices  for  measuring,  regulation  and 

controlling energy performance of buildings;

• 7.6 - Installation, maintenance and repair of renewable energy technologies.

Alignment Assessment 

The activities carried out by the group were considered eligible, but not aligned, as it was not possible to assess their 
compliance with all the technical screening criteria laid down in the Appendix A: Generic Criteria for DNSH to Climate 
Change Adaptation. For all the expenses considered as eligible, as the Group did not assess the full compliance of the 
suppliers to the TSC and MSS, a precautionary approach was preferred.

For eligible activity 3.6, the Group assessed whether or not the technical screening criteria was met. For activity 3.6, an 
LCA  verified  by  an  independent  third  party  for  each  solution  is  required,  and  it  has  to  be  compared  to  the  best 
performing alternative technology/product/solution available on the market. 

The assessment led us to determine activity 3.6 as not aligned because LCA verification has not been completed and 
does not satisfy requirements at this time. 

For  activities  4.15,  4.16,  4.25,  6.5,  7.2,  7.3,  7.5,  7.6  related  to  OpEX  activity,  the  group  assessed  whether  or  not  the 
technical  screening  criteria  were  met.  Using  a  conservative  approach,  we  cannot  confirm  that  all  technical  screening 
criteria were met.

(1) Individual measures as identified in Delegated Act – Annex I Art. 8, § 1.1.2.2, point c, related to the purchase of output from Taxonomy-aligned economic activities.

(2) 1 - climate change mitigation; 2 - climate change adaptation; 3 - sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources; 4 - transition to a circular economy; 5 - pollution prevention and control; and 

6 - protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems.

(3) The list of economic activities and the related technical screening criteria are laid down in Annex 1 and Annex 2 of the Commission Delegated Act 2021/2139 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852.

Minimum Social Safeguard Assessment

Article  3  of  the  EU  Taxonomy  Regulation  set  a  further  requirement  for  the  economic  activities  to  be  considered 
sustainable.  Not  only  the  activities  shall  meet  the  TSC,  but  they  shall  also  be  socially  sustainable  by  meeting  the 
minimum safeguards. 

The  Taxonomy  Regulation  requires  that  the  entity  conducting  an  eligible  activity  shall  also  implement  measures  to 
ensure  the  alignment  with  the  OECD  (Organization  for  Economic  Cooperation  and  Development)  Guidelines  for 
Multinational  Enterprises  and  with  the  UN  Guiding  Principles  on  Business  and  Human  Rights.  Those  procedures 
include  the  principles  and  rights  set  out  in  the  eight  fundamental  conventions  identified  in  the  Declaration  of  the 
International  Labour  Organisation  (ILO)  on  Fundamental  Principles  and  Rights  at  Work  and  the  International  Bill  of 
Human Rights. 

In  order  to  verify  compliance  with  minimum  safeguards  on  its  activities,  CNH  Industrial  conducted  a  specific 
assessment activity.

As referenced in our Corporate Governance Chapter, CNH Industrial respects and promotes human rights in line with 
national  laws,  the  fundamental  Conventions  of  the  International  Labour  Organization  (ILO),  the  UN’s  Universal 
Declaration of Human Rights, and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.

CNH  Industrial  is  committed  to  ensuring  respect  for  fundamental  human  rights  wherever  it  operates  and  seeks  to 
promote respect for these principles by others where it has an influence, particularly among contractors, suppliers, and 
other entities and individuals with whom it has a business relationship. 

CNH Industrial monitors respect for human rights both internally, through the Internal Audit function, and for suppliers, 
through an annual assessment process. CNH Industrial also seeks to implement a variety of measures (e.g., training 
activities) to help employees understand and address human rights issues in the course of their work.  

Accounting Policy (1.2.1)

For the determination of the KPIs, the Group’s Sustainability department, and the Accounting and Finance Department 
were involved, which, based on the indications given in Annex 1 to Delegated Act 2178/2021, identified the values to be 
included in the KPIs from the balance sheet items, as described in the next paragraph.

As for the calculation of the numerator, only the balance sheet items related to the identified activities (3.6, 4.15, 4.16, 
4.25, 6.5, 7.2, 7.3, 7.5, and 7.6) were considered. As for the calculation of the denominator, all the items provided for by 
the regulations at a consolidated CNH Industrial N.V. level were included, as specified within the contextual information 
paragraph.

Assessment of compliance with Regulation (EU) 2020/852 (1.2.2)
CNH Industrial identified nine taxonomy eligible activities[EY2] , which do not meet all the relevant technical screening 
criteria.

To avoid any double counting in the calculation of the KPIs, the values were determined directly from the items included 
in the financial statement of CNH Industrial N.V. 

Contextual information (1.2.3)

Turnover KPI:

a.

b.

The denominator was identified based on Group’s consolidated net turnover from industrial activities.

The numerator was identified including net sales from sales of electrical construction vehicles (activity 
3.6 “Manufacture of other low carbon technologies”).

CapEx KPI:

a. 

b. 

The denominator consists of additions to tangible and intangible fixed assets during the financial year, 
before  depreciation,  amortization,  and  any  re-measurements, 
from 
revaluations and impairments, as well as excluding changes in fair value. 

those  resulting 

including 

The  numerator  equals  capital  expenditures,  that  are  part  of  the  denominator,  referred  to  the  eligible 
activities  and  in  particular  capital  expenditures  on  fixed  assets  and  R&D  costs  capitalized  of  the 
industrial activities.

The  main  investments  within  the  eligible  costs  are  referred  to  renovation  of  plants  with  the  aim  to  make  them  more 
energy  sustainable  and  efficient  on  production;  all  the  investments  involve  mainly  the  production  plan  and  product 
development test labs. It also includes investments in relation to alternative propulsion (low carbon technologies) R&D 
and Capital investments.

Board Report   Our Commitment to Sustainable Development and Long-term Value Creation    17

OpEx KPI:

a. 

b. 

The  denominator  includes  all  direct  non-capitalized  costs  related  to  maintenance,  building  renovation 
measures, research and development, short-term lease, and any other direct expenditures relating to the 
day-to-day servicing of assets of property, plant, and equipment.

The numerator equals the direct non-capitalized costs that are part of the denominator referred to eligible 
activities and in particular innovation and advanced engineer development for Products Electrification 
and alternative propulsion solutions and R&D not capitalized of industrial activities.

There are no amounts in the reported values related to economic activities included in the taxonomy conducted for the 
internal consumption of the Group.

Within the CapEx and OpEx items, there are no items related to a plan to expand the economic activities aligned to the 
taxonomy.

After investigating and consulting on EU Taxonomy’s list of activities, the KPIs related are included in the tables below.

This Non-Financial Statement addresses the requirements of the Dutch Decree dated March 14, 2017 on Non-Financial 
Information, that implemented the Directive 2014/95/EU into Dutch law. This Non-Financial Statement is based on the 
GRI  Sustainability  Reporting  Standards  ("GRI  Standards")  and  the  Sustainability  Accounting  Standards  (“SASB 
Standards”). 
Defining  the  contents  of  this  Non-Financial  Statement  is  a  process  based  on  principles  of  materiality,  stakeholder 
inclusiveness,  sustainability  context,  and  completeness.  Ensuring  the  quality  of  information  concerns  principles  of 
balance, comparability, accuracy, timeliness, clarity, and reliability. 
Environmental and social issues included in the Annual Report were selected on the basis of the materiality analysis 
and  focus  on  key  phases  in  the  product  life  cycle.  For  further  information  on  CNH  Industrial's  commitment  to 
sustainable development, see the 2022 Sustainability Report.

CNH 
Industrial’s  products  are  highly 
complex,  typically  containing  thousands 
of  parts  that  come  from  many  different 
direct  suppliers  within  the  Company’s 
vast  global  supply  network.  This  means 
that the Company must rely on its direct 
suppliers  to  work  with  their  upstream 
supply chain to detect the presence and 
evaluate 
the  origin  of  any  critical 
substances  contained  in  components  or 
materials  it  purchases.  The  Company 
has  adopted  policies,  programs,  and 
procedures  to  manage  risks  related  to 
to  promote 
material  sourcing  and 
responsible  sourcing,  particularly  with 
regard  to  tin,  tantalum,  tungsten,  and 
gold  (referred  to  as  conflict  minerals  or 
3TG),  as  well  as  cobalt  (see  Suppliers 
section).

RISK FACTORS 

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other 
than  statements  of  historical  fact  included  in  this  Annual  Report  are  forward-looking  statements.  Forward-looking 
statements  provide  our  current  expectations  and  projections  relating  to  our  financial  condition,  results  of  operations, 
plans, objectives, future performance, and business. You can identify forward-looking statements as they do not relate 
to  historical  or  current  facts  and  by  words  such  as  “believe,”  “expect,”  “estimate,”  “anticipate,”  “will,”  “should,”  “plan,” 
“forecast,” “target,” “guide,” “project,” “intend,” “could,” and similar words or expressions.

All  forward-looking  statements  are  subject  to  risks  and  uncertainties  that  may  cause  actual  results  to  differ  materially 
from those that we expected. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, 
or  cautionary  statements,  and  other  important  information  about  forward-looking  statements  are  disclosed  under  the 
section “Risk Factors,” and “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” in this Annual Report.

The  following  risks  should  be  considered  in  conjunction  with  the  other  risks  described  in  the  Disclaimer,  Risk 
Management  and  Control  System  section  and  Notes  to  the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements.  The  following  is  a 
cautionary discussion of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we believe are material to our business. These risks 
may  affect  our  trading  results  and,  individually  or  in  the  aggregate,  could  cause  our  actual  results  to  differ  materially 
from past and projected future results. Some of these risks and uncertainties could affect particular lines of business, 
while others could affect all of our businesses. Although risks are organized by headings, and each risk is discussed 
separately, many are interrelated. We undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether 
as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. You should, however, consult any subsequent disclosures 
we make from time to time in materials filed with the SEC.

STRATEGIC RISKS 

Global economic conditions impact our businesses

Our  results  of  operations  and  financial  position  are  and  will  continue  to  be  influenced  by  macroeconomic  factors  – 
including changes in gross domestic product, the level of consumer and business confidence, changes in interest rates, 
the  availability  of  credit,  inflation  and  deflation,  energy  prices,  and  the  cost  of  commodities  or  other  raw  materials  – 
which exist in the countries and regions in which we operate. Such macroeconomic factors vary from time to time and 
their  effect  on  our  results  of  operations  and  financial  position  cannot  be  specifically  and  singularly  assessed  and/or 
isolated.

Economic conditions vary across regions and countries, and demand for our products and services generally increases 
in those regions and countries experiencing economic growth and investment. Slower economic growth or a change in 
global  mix  of  regions  and  countries  experiencing  economic  growth  and  investment  could  have  an  adverse  impact  on 
our business, results of operations and financial condition. In a weaker economic environment, dealers and customers 
may delay or cancel plans to purchase our products and services and may not be able to fulfill their obligations to us in 
a timely fashion. Our suppliers may also be impacted by economic pressures, which may adversely affect their ability to 
fulfill  their  obligations  to  us  or  the  price  or  availability  of  supplies  we  require.  These  factors  could  result  in  product 
delays, increased accounts receivable, defaults and inventory challenges. The persistent disparity with respect to the 
widely varying economic conditions amongst the individual countries of the European Union, and their implications for 
the Euro, as well as market perceptions concerning these and related issues, have led to further pressure on economic 
growth and may lead to new periods of economic volatility and recession in the European Union. Similarly, in Brazil and 
Argentina, macroeconomic conditions remain volatile.  

The  COVID  pandemic,  geopolitical  instability,  including  the  conflict  between  Russia  and  Ukraine,  and  other  global 
events  have  significantly  increased  economic  and  demand  uncertainty.  Some  of  the  results  of  these  events  include 
supply chain challenges, inflation, high interest rates, foreign currency exchange volatility, and volatility in global capital 
markets.  Supply  chain  challenges,  including  delays  caused  by  shortages  of  raw  materials,  shipping  containers  and 
labor  availability,  have  increased  production  costs  and  impacted  our  profit  margins.  Additionally,  the  cost  of  raw 
materials  used  in  our  products  and  the  cost  of  freight  have  increased  due  to  heightened  inflation.  These  adverse 
economic events have and may continue to adversely affect the Company’s operations.

We  are  exposed  to  political,  economic,  trade  and  other  risks  beyond  our  control  as  a  result  of  operating  a 
global business

We manufacture and sell products and offer services in several continents and numerous countries around the world 
including  those  experiencing  varying  degrees  of  political  and  economic  instability.  Given  the  global  nature  of  our 

Board Report   Risk Factors     24

activities, we are exposed to risks associated with international business activities that may increase our costs, impact 
our ability to manufacture and sell our products and require significant management attention. These risks include:

▪

changes in laws, regulations and policies that affect, among other things: 

◦

◦

◦

◦

◦

◦

import and export duties and quotas; 

currency restrictions; 

the design, manufacture and sale of our products 

interest rates and the availability of credit to our dealers and customers;  

where, to whom, and what type of products may be sold, including new or additional trade or economic 
sanctions  imposed  by  the  United  States,  European  Union,  the  United  Kingdom  or  other  governmental 
authorities and supranational organizations (e.g., the United Nations); and 

taxes; 

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

regulations from changing world organization initiatives and agreements; 

changes in the dynamics of the industries and markets in which we operate; 

labor disruptions; 

disruption  in  the  supply  of  raw  materials  and  components  (e.g.  as  a  result  of  pandemics  or  sanctions), 
including rare materials (they might be easily subjected to sudden cost increases due to a variety of factors, 
including speculative measures or unforeseen political changes);

changes in governmental debt relief and subsidy program policies in certain significant markets, including the 
Brazilian government discontinuing programs subsidizing interest rates on equipment loans;

withdrawal from or changes to trade agreements or trade terms, negotiation of new trade agreements and the 
imposition of new (and retaliatory) tariffs on certain countries or covering certain products and raw materials or 
embargoes, including developments in U.S.-China trade relations; and

war, civil unrest and acts of terrorism.

In  recent  years,  acts  of  terrorism  have  occurred  around  the  world,  leading  to  personal  safety  anxieties  and  political 
instability in many countries and, ultimately, an impact on consumers’ confidence. More recently, growing populist and 
nationalist political movements in several major developed countries, changes in or uncertainty surrounding global trade 
policies  and  other  unanticipated  changes  to  the  previous  geopolitical  order  may  have  negative  effects  on  the  global 
economy.  

Further,  the  war  in  Ukraine  has  given  rise  to  regional  instability  and  resulted  in  heightened  sanctions  and  counter-
sanctions.  Our  business  in  Ukraine  and  Russia  has  been  impacted  by  the  war  and  the  Company  has  suspended  all 
shipments to Russia. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, risks related to the impact of the war in 
Ukraine, including restrictions on our ability or willingness to do business with certain vendors or suppliers, the ability to 
repatriate  funds  from  the  region,  increases  in  the  cost  of  raw  materials  and  commodities,  supply  chain  and  logistics 
challenges, access to natural gas, higher energy prices and foreign currency volatility. The extent of the impact of the 
war in Ukraine on the global economy cannot be predicted, including the extent to which the conflict may heighten other 
risks disclosed herein, any of which could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operation, cash flows or 
financial condition. 

There can be no guarantee that we will be able to quickly and completely adapt our business model to changes that 
could  result  from  the  foregoing,  and  any  such  changes  may  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  results  of 
operations and financial condition.

Reduced demand for equipment would reduce our sales and profitability 

The agricultural equipment market is influenced by factors such as: 

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

the general economic conditions and outlook, such as market volatility and rising interest rates;

the price of agricultural commodities and the ability to competitively export agricultural commodities;

the cost of farm inputs including the value of land, fertilizers, fuel, labor and other inputs 

the profitability of agricultural enterprises, farmers’ income and their capitalization; 

the demand for food products;  

the availability of stocks from previous harvests; and

Board Report   Risk Factors     25

▪

agricultural  policies,  including  aid  and  subsidies  to  agricultural  enterprises  provided  by  governments  and/or 
supranational  organizations,  policies  impacting  commodity  prices  or  limiting  the  export  or  import  of 
commodities, and alternative fuel mandates. 

In  addition,  droughts,  floods  and  other  unfavorable  climatic  conditions,  especially  during  the  spring,  a  particularly 
important period for generating sales orders, could have a negative impact on decisions to buy agricultural equipment 
and, consequently, on our revenues. 

The construction equipment market is influenced by factors such as: 

▪

▪

▪

public infrastructure spending; 

new residential and non-residential construction; and 

capital spending in oil and gas and, to a lesser extent, in mining. 

The above factors can significantly influence the demand for agricultural and construction equipment and consequently, 
our financial results. If demand for our products is less than we expect, we may experience excess inventories and be 
forced to incur additional charges and our profitability will suffer, including lower fixed costs absorption associated with 
lower production levels at our plants. Our business may be negatively impacted if we experience excess inventories or 
if we are unable to adjust on a timely basis our production schedules or our purchases from suppliers to reflect changes 
in customer demand and market fluctuations. 

Competitive  activity,  or  failure  by  us  to  respond  to  actions  by  our  competitors,  could  adversely  affect  our 
results of operations

We  operate  in  highly  competitive  global  and  regional  markets.  Depending  on  the  particular  country  and  product,  we 
compete  with  other  international,  regional  and  local  manufacturers  and  distributors  of  agricultural  and  construction 
equipment.  Certain  of  our  global  competitors  have  substantial  resources  and  may  be  able  to  provide  products  and 
services at little or no profit, or even at a loss, to compete with certain of our product and service offerings. We compete 
primarily on the basis of product performance, innovation, quality, distribution, customer service, and price. Aggressive 
pricing or other strategies pursued by competitors, unanticipated product or manufacturing delays, quality issues, or our 
failure  to  price  our  products  competitively  could  adversely  affect  our  business,  results  of  operations  and  financial 
position. Additionally,  there  has  been  a  trend  toward  consolidation  in  the  construction  equipment  industries  that  has 
resulted in larger and potentially stronger competitors in those industries. The markets in which we compete are highly 
competitive  in  terms  of  product  quality,  innovation,  pricing,  fuel  economy,  reliability,  safety,  customer  service  and 
financial  services  offered.  Competition,  particularly  on  pricing,  has  increased  significantly  in  the  markets  in  which  we 
compete.  Should  we  be  unable  to  adapt  effectively  to  market  conditions,  this  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our 
business, results of operations and financial condition.

Changes in government monetary or fiscal policies may negatively impact our results

Most countries where our products and services are sold have established central banks to regulate monetary systems 
and  influence  economic  activities,  generally  by  adjusting  interest  rates.  Some  governments  have  implemented 
measures designed to slow inflationary pressure in their countries (e.g. higher interest rates, reduced financial assets 
purchases).  Rising  interest  rates  could  have  a  dampening  effect  on  the  overall  economic  activity  and/or  the  financial 
condition of our customers, either or both of which could negatively affect demand for our products and our customers’ 
ability to repay obligations to us. Central banks and other policy arms of many countries may take further actions to vary 
the  amount  of  liquidity  and  credit  available  in  an  economy.  The  impact  from  a  change  in  liquidity  and  credit  policies 
could  negatively  affect  the  customers  and  markets  we  serve  or  our  suppliers,  which  could  adversely  impact  our 
business, results of operations and financial condition. Government initiatives that are intended to stimulate demand for 
products  sold  by  us,  such  as  changes  in  tax  treatment  or  purchase  incentives  for  new  equipment,  can  significantly 
influence  the  timing  and  level  of  our  revenues.  The  terms,  size  and  duration  of  such  government  actions  are 
unpredictable  and  outside  of  our  control. Any  adverse  change  in  government  policy  relating  to  those  initiatives  could 
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 

Our  future  performance  depends  on  our  ability  to  innovate  and  on  market  acceptance  of  new  or  existing 
products

Our  success  depends  on  our  ability  to  maintain  or  increase  our  market  share  in  existing  markets  and  to  expand  into 
new markets through the development of innovative, high-quality products that provide adequate profitability. We have a 
strategic  plan  covering  investments  in  innovation  designed  to  further  develop  existing,  and  create  new,  product  and 
service  offerings  responsive  to  customer  needs,  including  developing  and  delivering  connected  and  digital  solutions, 
automation,  electrification  and  autonomy.  Achievement  of  these  objectives  is  dependent  on  a  number  of  factors, 
including  our  ability  to  maintain  key  dealer  relationships,  our  ability  to  design  and  produce  products  that  meet  our 
customers’  quality,  performance  and  price  expectations,  our  ability  to  develop  connected  and  digital  solutions  that 
improve the profitability and sustainability of customers through their production systems, our ability to develop effective 

Board Report   Risk Factors     26

sales,  dealer  training  and  marketing  programs,  and  the  ability  of  our  dealers  to  support  and  service  connected  and 
digital solutions and emerging power solutions. Failure to develop and offer innovative products that compare favorably 
to those of our principal competitors in terms of price, quality, functionality, features, mobility and connected services, 
equipment electrification, fuel cell technology and autonomy, or delays in bringing strategic new products to market, or 
the inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights or supply products that meet regulatory requirements, 
including  engine  emissions  requirements,  could  result  in  reduced  revenue  and  market  share,  which  could  have  a 
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We  may  face  challenges  to  our  intellectual  property  rights  which  could  adversely  affect  our  reputation, 
business and competitive position

We  own  important  intellectual  property,  including  patents,  trademarks,  copyrights  and  trade  secrets.  Our  intellectual 
property plays an important role in maintaining our competitive position in the markets that we serve. Our competitors 
may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our proprietary technologies or design around the intellectual 
property  that  we  own  or  license.  Despite  our  controls  and  safeguards,  our  technology  may  be  misappropriated  by 
employees,  competitors  or  third  parties.  The  pursuit  of  remedies  for  any  misappropriation  of  intellectual  property  is 
expensive and the ultimate remedies may be insufficient. Further, in jurisdictions where the enforcement of intellectual 
property rights is less robust, the risk of misappropriation of our intellectual property is higher notwithstanding the efforts 
we undertake to protect it. Developments or assertions by or against us relating to intellectual property rights, and any 
inability to protect or enforce our rights sufficiently, could adversely affect our business, competitive position and results 
of operations.

We may not realize all of the anticipated benefits from our business initiatives and cost management initiatives

As part of our strategic plan, we are actively engaged in a number of initiatives to strengthen our business and increase 
our productivity, market positioning, efficiency and cash flow, all of which we expect will have a positive long-term effect 
on our business, results of operations and financial condition. These initiatives include our enhanced focus on digital, 
precision  farming  and  alternative  propulsion,  as  well  as  other  initiatives  aimed  at  improving  our  product  portfolio  and 
customer focus. There can be no assurance that these initiatives or others will be beneficial to the extent anticipated, or 
that the estimated efficiency or cash flow improvements will be realized as anticipated or at all. If these initiatives are 
not  implemented  successfully,  they  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  operations.  We  also  expect  to  take  targeted 
restructuring actions as we continue to optimize our cost structure and improve the efficiency of our operations. In order 
to  complete  these  actions,  we  will  incur  charges.  Failure  to  realize  anticipated  savings  or  benefits  from  our  cost 
reduction actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results 
of operations and cash flows.

We  may  not  be  able  to  realize  anticipated  benefits  from  any  acquisitions  and,  further,  challenges  associated 
with strategic alliances may have an adverse impact on our results of operations 

We have engaged in the past, and may engage in the future, in investments or mergers and acquisitions or enter into, 
expand or exit from strategic alliances and joint ventures that could involve risks that could prevent us from realizing the 
expected benefits of the transactions or the achievement of strategic objectives or could divert management’s time and 
attention. Such risks, many of which are outside our control, include: 

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪

technological and product synergies, economies of scale and cost reductions not occurring as expected; 

unexpected liabilities;  

incompatibility of operating, information or other systems;  

inability to retain key employees; 

significant costs associated with terminating or modifying alliances; and  

problems in retaining customers and integrating operations, services, personnel, and customer bases.  

If  issues  were  to  arise  with  respect  to  an  acquisition  or  the  parties  to  one  or  more  of  our  joint  venture  or  strategic 
alliances  or  other  relationships  for  managerial,  financial,  or  other  reasons,  or  if  such  strategic  alliances  or  other 
relationships  were  terminated,  our  product  lines,  businesses,  results  of  operations  and  financial  condition  could  be 
adversely affected. 

Our business may be affected by climate change, unfavorable weather conditions or other calamities

Poor, severe or unusual weather conditions caused by climate change or other factors, particularly during the planting 
and  early  growing  season,  can  significantly  affect  the  purchasing  decisions  of  our  agricultural  equipment  customers. 
The timing and quantity of rainfall are two of the most important factors in agricultural production. Insufficient levels of 
rain prevent farmers from planting crops or may cause growing crops to die, resulting in lower yields. Excessive rain or 
flooding  can  also  prevent  planting  or  harvesting  from  occurring  at  optimal  times  and  may  cause  crop  loss  through 
increased disease or mold growth. Temperature affects the rate of growth, crop maturity, crop quality and yield.

Board Report   Risk Factors     27

Temperatures outside normal ranges can cause crop failure or decreased yields and may also affect disease incidence. 
Natural  disasters  such  as  floods,  hurricanes,  storms,  droughts,  diseases  and  pests  can  have  a  negative  impact  on 
agricultural  production. The  resulting  negative  impact  on  farm  income  can  strongly  affect  demand  for  our  agricultural 
equipment in any given period. 

In  addition,  natural  disasters,  pandemic  illness,  acts  of  terrorism  or  violence,  acts  of  war,  equipment  failures,  power 
outages,  disruptions  to  our  information  technology  systems  and  networks  or  other  unexpected  events  could  result  in 
physical  damage  to,  and  complete  or  partial  closure  of,  one  or  more  of  our  manufacturing  facilities  or  distribution 
centers, temporary or long-term disruption in the supply of parts or component products and disruption and delay in the 
transport  of  our  products  to  dealers  and  customers.  If  such  events  occur,  our  financial  results  might  be  negatively 
impacted. Our existing insurance and risk management arrangements may not protect against all costs that may arise 
from such events. 

Furthermore, the potentially long-term physical impacts of climate change on our facilities, suppliers and customers and 
therefore  on  our  operations  are  highly  uncertain  and  will  be  driven  by  the  circumstances  developing  in  various 
geographical  regions.  These  may  include  long-term  changes  in  temperature  and  water  availability.  These  potential 
physical  effects  may  adversely  impact  the  demand  for  our  products  and  the  cost,  production,  sales  and  financial 
performance of our operations.

Regulators in Europe and the U.S. have also focused efforts on increased disclosure related to climate change and 
mitigation efforts. 

Changes in demand for food and alternative energy sources could impact our revenues
Changing worldwide demand for farm outputs to meet the world’s growing food and alternative energy demands, driven 
by a growing world population and government policies, including those related to climate change, are likely to result in 
fluctuating  agricultural  commodity  prices,  which  affect  sales  of  agricultural  equipment.  While  higher  commodity  prices 
will  benefit  our  crop  producing  agricultural  equipment  customers,  higher  commodity  prices  also  result  in  greater  feed 
costs  for  livestock  and  poultry  producers,  which  in  turn  may  result  in  lower  levels  of  equipment  purchased  by  these 
customers.  Lower  commodity  prices  directly  affect  farm  income,  which  could  negatively  affect  sales  of  agricultural 
equipment. Moreover, changing alternative energy demands may cause farmers to change the types or quantities of the 
crops  they  grow,  with  corresponding  changes  in  equipment  demands.  Finally,  changes  in  governmental  policies 
regulating  bio-fuel  utilization  could  affect  demand  for  our  equipment  and  result  in  higher  research  and  development 
costs related to equipment fuel standards.  

International trade policies may impact demand for our products and our competitive position

Government policies on international trade and investment such as sanctions, import quotas, capital controls or tariffs, 
whether  adopted  by  non-governmental  bodies,  individual  governments  or  addressed  by  regional  trade  blocks,  may 
affect the demand for our products, technology and services, impact the competitive position of our products or prevent 
us  from  being  able  to  sell  products  to  certain  customers  or  in  certain  countries.  The  implementation  of  more 
protectionist trade policies, such as more detailed inspections, higher tariffs, or new barriers to entry, in countries where 
we sell products and provide services could negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial position. 
For example, a government’s adoption of trade sanctions or “buy national” policies or retaliation by another government 
against such policies could have a negative impact on our results of operations.  

OPERATIONAL RISKS

We depend on suppliers for raw materials, parts and components 

We rely upon many suppliers for raw materials, parts and components that we require to manufacture our products. We 
cannot guarantee that we will be able to maintain access to raw materials, parts and components, and in some cases, 
this access may be affected by factors outside of our control and the control of our suppliers. Certain components and 
parts  used  in  our  products  are  available  from  a  single  supplier  and  cannot  be  quickly  sourced  from  other  suppliers. 
Significant disruptions to the supply chain resulting from shortages of raw materials, components, and whole-goods can 
adversely  affect  our  ability  to  meet  customer  demand.  For  example,  during  2022,  increases  in  demand  have 
exacerbated  significant  disruptions  to  the  global  supply  chain  stemming  from  the  COVID-19  pandemic,  which  have 
affected  our  ability  to  receive  certain  materials  and  components  on  a  timely  basis  and  at  anticipated  costs.  These 
supply  chain  disruptions  have  been  caused  and  compounded  by  many  factors,  including  changes  in  supply  and 
demand,  industry  capacity  constraints  and  labor  shortages.  Global  logistics  network  challenges  include  ocean  freight 
capacity constraints, international port delays, trucking and chassis shortages, railway and air freight capacity, and labor 
availability  constraints,  which  have  resulted  in  delays,  shortages  of  key  manufacturing  components,  increased  order 
backlogs,  and  increased  transportation  costs.  While  we  diligently  monitor  our  supply  chain  risk  and  seek  to  respond 
promptly to address supply chain and logistics bottlenecks, there can be no assurance that our mitigation plans will be 
effective to prevent disruptions that may arise from shortages of materials that we use in the production of our products. 

Board Report   Risk Factors     28

Uncertainties  related  to  the  magnitude  and  duration  of  global  supply  chain  disruptions  have  adversely  affected,  and 
may continue to adversely affect, our business and outlook.  

We use a variety of raw materials in our businesses, including steel, aluminum, lead, resin and copper, and precious 
metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium. The availability and price of these raw materials fluctuate, particularly 
during times of economic volatility or regulatory and geopolitical instability or in response to changes in tariffs, and while 
we seek to manage this exposure, we may not be successful in mitigating these risks. Further, increases in the prices 
for raw materials have resulted in and could continue to result in significant increases to our costs of production, which 
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, particularly if we are 
unable to offset the increased costs through an increase in product pricing. 

Our existing operations and expansion plans in emerging markets could entail significant risks 

Our ability to grow our businesses depends to an increasing degree on our ability to increase market share and operate 
profitably worldwide and, in particular, in emerging market countries, such as Brazil, India, China, Argentina and Turkey. 
In addition, we could increase our use of suppliers located in such countries. Our implementation of these strategies will 
involve  a  significant  investment  of  capital  and  other  resources  and  exposes  us  to  multiple  and  potentially  conflicting 
cultural  practices,  business  practices  and  legal  requirements  that  are  subject  to  change,  including  those  related  to 
tariffs,  trade  barriers,  investments,  property  ownership  rights,  taxation,  and  sanction  and  export  control  requirements. 
For  example,  we  may  encounter  difficulties  in  obtaining  necessary  governmental  approvals  in  a  timely  manner.  In 
addition, we may experience delays and incur significant costs in constructing facilities, establishing supply channels, 
and commencing manufacturing operations. Further, customers in these markets may not readily accept our products 
as compared with products manufactured and commercialized by our competitors. The emerging market countries may 
also be subject to a greater degree of economic and political volatility that could adversely affect our financial position, 
results of operations and cash flows. Many emerging market economies have experienced slower growth, volatility, and 
other  economic  challenges  in  recent  periods  and  may  be  subject  to  a  further  slowdown  in  gross  domestic  product 
expansion and/or be impacted by domestic political or currency volatility, potential hyperinflationary conditions, and/or 
increase of public debt.

Dealer equipment sourcing and inventory management decisions could adversely affect our sales

We  sell  our  products  primarily  through  independent  dealers  and  are  subject  to  risks  relating  to  their  inventory 
management  decisions  and  operating  and  sourcing  practices.  Our  dealers  carry  inventories  of  finished  products  and 
parts  as  part  of  ongoing  operations  and  adjust  those  inventories  based  on  their  assessment  of  future  sales 
opportunities and market conditions, including the level of used equipment inventory. If our dealers’ inventory levels are 
higher than they desire, they may postpone product purchases from us, which could cause our sales to be lower than 
the  end-user  demand  for  our  products  and  negatively  impact  our  results.  Similarly,  our  sales  could  be  negatively 
impacted through the loss of time-sensitive sales if our dealers do not maintain inventory sufficient to meet customer 
demand. Further, dealers who carry other products that compete with our products may focus their inventory purchases 
and  sales  efforts  on  goods  provided  by  other  suppliers  due  to  industry  demand  or  profitability.  Such  inventory 
adjustments and sourcing decisions can adversely impact our sales, results of operations and financial condition. 

Our  results  of  operations  may  be  adversely  impacted  by  various  types  of  claims,  lawsuits,  and  other 
contingent obligations

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in litigation and investigations on a wide range of topics, including 
securities  law  in  the  Netherlands  and  U.S.,  dealer  and  supplier  litigation,  intellectual  property  rights  disputes,  product 
warranty and defective product claims, product performance, asbestos, personal injury, regulatory and contract issues, 
indirect  tax  issues,  and  environmental  claims.  The  industries  in  which  we  operate  are  also  periodically  reviewed  or 
investigated  by  regulators,  which  could  lead  to  enforcement  actions,  fines  and  penalties  or  the  assertion  of  private 
litigation  claims.  We  are  subject  to  regulation  and  oversight  by  securities  regulatory  authorities  in  a  number  of 
jurisdictions  including  the  Netherlands,  Italy  and  the  United  States.  In  the  United  States,  we  recently  adopted  on  a 
voluntary  basis  the  financial  reporting  standards  and  practices  applicable  to  U.S.  domestic  issuers,  which  include 
certain incremental filing and reporting requirements. These additional obligations may increase the cost for ensuring 
compliance  with  the  applicable  reporting  requirements  and  may  subject  us  to  an  enhanced  risk  of  regulatory 
investigations and private litigation. The ultimate outcome of these legal matters pending against us is uncertain, and 
although such legal matters are not expected individually to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or 
profitability, such legal matters could, in the aggregate, in the event of unfavorable resolutions thereof, have a material 
adverse  effect  on  our  results  of  operations  and  financial  condition.  Furthermore,  we  could  in  the  future  be  subject  to 
judgments or enter into settlements of lawsuits and claims that could have a material adverse effect on our results of 
operations in any particular period. In addition, while we maintain insurance coverage with respect to certain risks, we 
may not be able to obtain such insurance on acceptable terms in the future, if at all, and any such insurance may not 
provide  adequate  coverage  against  claims  under  such  policies.  We  establish  reserves  based  on  our  assessment  of 
contingencies, including contingencies related to legal claims asserted against us. Subsequent developments in legal 
proceedings may affect our assessment and estimates of the loss contingency recorded as a reserve and require us to 

Board Report   Risk Factors     29

make payments that exceed our reserves, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and/
or  financial  position.  For  further  information  see  Note  27  “Commitments  and  contingencies”  to  the  Consolidated 
Financial Statements at December 31, 2022.  

A  cybersecurity  breach  could  interfere  with  our  operations,  compromise  confidential  information,  negatively 
impact our corporate reputation and expose us to liability

We rely upon information technology systems and networks, some of which are managed by third parties, in connection 
with a variety of our business activities. These systems include supply chain, manufacturing, distribution, invoicing and 
collection of payments from dealers or other purchasers of our products and from customers of our financial services 
business,  and  connectivity  services  with  and  among  equipment.  We  use  information  technology  systems  to  record, 
process  and  summarize  financial  information  and  results  of  operations  for  internal  reporting  purposes  and  to  comply 
with regulatory financial reporting, legal and tax requirements. Additionally, we collect and store sensitive data, including 
intellectual  property,  proprietary  business  information  and  the  proprietary  information  of  our  customers,  suppliers  and 
dealers, as well as personally identifiable information of our dealers, customers and employees, in data centers and on 
information technology networks. Operating these information technology systems and networks, and processing and 
maintaining  this  data,  in  a  secure  manner,  are  critical  to  our  business  operations  and  strategy.  Increased  information 
technology security threats (e.g. worms, viruses, malware, phishing attacks, ransomware, and other malicious threats) 
and  more  sophisticated  computer  crime  pose  a  significant  risk  to  the  security  of  our  systems  and  networks  and  the 
confidentiality, availability and integrity of our data. Cybersecurity attacks could also include attacks targeting customer 
data or the security, integrity and/or reliability of the hardware and software installed in our products.

While we actively manage information technology security risks within our control through security measures, business 
continuity plans and employee training around phishing and other cyber risks, our information technology networks and 
infrastructure  have  been  and  may  be  vulnerable  to  intrusion,  attacks  or  disruptions  or  shutdowns  due  to  attacks  by 
cyber criminals, employee, supplier or dealer error or malfeasance or supply chain compromise. 

A failure or breach in security, whether of our systems and networks or those of third parties on which we rely, could 
expose us and our customers, dealers and suppliers to risks of misuse of information or systems, the compromising of 
confidential information, loss of financial resources, manipulation and destruction of data, defective products, production 
downtimes  and  operations  disruptions,  which  in  turn  could  adversely  affect  our  reputation,  competitive  position, 
businesses and results of operations. Security breaches could also result in litigation, regulatory action, unauthorized 
release  of  confidential  or  otherwise  protected  information  and  corruption  of  data,  as  well  as  remediation  costs  and 
higher  operational  and  other  costs  of  implementing  further  data  protection  measures.  In  addition,  as  security  threats 
continue  to  evolve,  we  may  need  to  invest  additional  resources  to  protect  the  security  of  our  systems  and  data. The 
amount  or  scope  of  insurance  coverage  we  maintain  may  be  inadequate  to  cover  claims  or  liabilities  relating  to  a 
cybersecurity attack.  

Security  breaches  with  respect  to  our  products  could  interfere  with  our  business  and  our  dealers,  and/or 
customers, exposing us to liability that would cause our business and reputation to suffer

Some of our products include connectivity hardware typically used for telematics services and remote system updates. 
While we have implemented security measures intended to prevent unauthorized access to these products, malicious 
actors  have  reportedly  attempted,  and  may  attempt  in  the  future,  to  gain  unauthorized  access  to  such  products 
including through such connectivity hardware in order to gain control of the products, change the products’ functionality, 
user  interface,  or  performance  characteristics,  or  gain  access  to  data  stored  in  or  generated  by  the  products.  Any 
unauthorized access to or control of our products or systems or any loss of data could result in legal claims against us 
or  government  investigations.  In  addition,  reports  of  unauthorized  access  to  our  products,  systems,  and  data, 
regardless  of  their  veracity,  may  result  in  the  perception  that  the  products,  systems,  or  data  are  capable  of  being 
hacked, which could harm our brands, prospects, and operating results.

We face risks associated with our employment relationships

In  many  countries  where  we  operate,  our  employees  are  protected  by  laws  and/or  collective  labor  agreements  that 
guarantee  them,  through  local  and  national  representatives,  the  right  of  consultation  on  specific  matters,  including 
repurposing,  downsizing  or  closure  of  production  facilities  and  reductions  in  personnel.  Laws  and/or  collective  labor 
agreements  applicable  to  us  could  impair  our  flexibility  in  reshaping  and/or  strategically  repositioning  our  business 
activities.  Therefore,  our  ability  to  efficiently  deploy  personnel  or  implement  permanent  or  temporary  redundancy 
measures is subject to government approvals and/or the agreement of labor unions where such laws and agreements 
are  applicable.  Furthermore,  the  failure  of  the  Company  to  successfully  renegotiate  labor  agreements  as  they  expire 
from time to time led, and could in the future lead, to work interruption or stoppage. Any strike, work stoppage, or other 
dispute  with  labor  unions  distracts  management  from  operating  the  business,  may  affect  the  Company's  reputation, 
could significantly impact the volume of products we manufacture and sell, which could have a material adverse effect 
on  our  business,  results  of  operations  and  financial  condition.  In  addition,  the  COVID-19  pandemic  has  resulted  in 
material changes in how and where employees work.

Board Report   Risk Factors     30

Our  ability  to  execute  our  strategy  is  dependent  upon  our  ability  to  attract,  develop  and  retain  qualified 
personnel

Our  ability  to  compete  successfully,  to  manage  our  business  effectively,  to  expand  our  business  and  to  execute  our 
strategic direction, depends, in part, on our ability to attract, motivate and retain qualified personnel in key functions and 
markets.  In  particular,  we  are  dependent  on  our  ability  to  attract,  motivate  and  retain  qualified  personnel  with  the 
requisite education, skills, background, talents and industry experience. Failure to attract and retain qualified personnel, 
whether as a result of an insufficient number of qualified applicants, difficulty in recruiting new personnel, or the inability 
to  integrate  and  retain  qualified  personnel,  could  impair  our  ability  to  execute  our  business  strategy  and  meet  our 
business  objectives.  These  may  be  affected  by  the  loss  of  employees,  particularly  when  departures  involve  larger 
numbers  of  employees.  Higher  rates  of  employee  separations  may  adversely  affect  us  through  decreased  employee 
morale, the loss of knowledge of departing employees, and the devotion of resources to recruiting and onboarding new 
employees.

COMPLIANCE RISKS

We are subject to increasingly stringent and evolving laws that impose significant compliance costs.

We  are  subject  to  comprehensive  and  constantly  evolving  laws,  regulations  and  policies  in  numerous  jurisdictions 
around the world. We expect the extent of legal requirements affecting our businesses and our costs of compliance to 
continue to increase in the future. Such laws govern, among other things, products – with requirements on emissions of 
polluting gases and particulate matter, increased fuel efficiency and safety becoming increasingly strict – and industrial 
plants  –  with  requirements  for  reduced  air  emissions,  treatment  of  waste  and  water,  and  prohibitions  on  soil 
contamination also becoming increasingly strict. To comply with such laws, we make significant investments in research 
and  development  and  capital  expenditures  and  expect  to  continue  to  incur  substantial  costs  in  the  future.  Failure  to 
comply  with  such  laws  could  limit  or  prohibit  our  ability  to  sell  our  products  in  a  particular  jurisdiction,  expose  us  to 
penalties  or  clean-up  costs,  civil  or  criminal  liability  and  sanctions  on  certain  of  our  activities,  as  well  as  damage  to 
property  or  natural  resources.  Liabilities,  sanctions,  damages  and  remediation  efforts  related  to  any  non-compliance 
with  such  laws,  including  those  that  may  be  adopted  or  imposed  in  the  future,  could  negatively  impact  our  ability  to 
conduct our operations and our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, there can be no assurance that 
we will not be adversely affected by costs, liabilities or claims with respect to any subsequently acquired operations.  

Further, environmental, health and safety regulations change from time to time, as may related interpretations and other 
guidance.  For  example,  changes  in  environmental  and  climate  change  laws,  including  laws  relating  to  engine  and 
equipment emissions, safety regulations, fuel requirements, restricted substances, or greenhouse gas emissions, could 
lead  to  new  or  additional  investments  in  product  designs  to  comply  with  these  regulations.  Our  internal  combustion 
engines  are  mainly  supplied  by  FPT  S.p.A.,  a  company  controlled  by  Iveco  N.V.,  and  compliance  with  emissions 
regulations is contractually allocated to our suppliers. Failure of our suppliers to ensure compliance with the applicable 
regulations  may  result  in  our  Company  be  subject  to  administrative  and  legal  proceedings  and  other  material 
consequences.  Further,  we  may  experience  production  delays  if  our  suppliers  are  unable  design  and  manufacture 
components for our products that comply with environmental standards. For instance, as we are required to meet more 
stringent  engine  emission  reduction  standards  that  are  applicable  to  engines  we  incorporate  into  our  products,  we 
expect  to  meet  these  requirements  through  the  introduction  of  new  technology  to  our  products,  engines  and  exhaust 
after-treatment systems, as necessary. Failure to meet applicable requirements could materially affect our performance.

Changes to existing laws and regulations or changes to how they are interpreted or the implementation of new, more 
stringent laws or regulations could adversely affect our business by increasing compliance costs, limiting our ability to 
offer a product or service, requiring changes to our business practices, or otherwise making our products and services 
less  attractive  to  customers.  For  example,  so-called  “right  to  repair”  legislation  proposals  in  certain  states  and  at  the 
federal  level  in  the  U.S.  could  require  us  to  provide  access  to  the  software  code  embedded  in  our  products,  which, 
among  other  harmful  consequences,  could  create  product  safety  issues,  compromise  engine  emissions  and 
performance  controls,  adversely  affect  the  protection  of  our  intellectual  property,  and  limit  our  ability  to  recoup 
necessary investments in innovation and research and development.

We  are  subject  to  extensive  laws  and  regulations,  the  violation  of  which  could  expose  CNH  Industrial  to 
potential liabilities, increased costs and other adverse effects.

Due to the global scope of our operations, we are subject to many laws and regulations that apply to our operations 
around  the  world,  including  the  U.S.  Foreign  Corrupt  Practices Act,  and  the  U.K.  Bribery Act,  as  well  as  a  range  of 
national  anti-corruption  and  antitrust  or  competition  laws  that  apply  to  conduct  in  a  particular  jurisdiction. These  anti-
corruption laws prohibit improper payments in cash or anything of value to improperly influence third parties to obtain or 
retain business or gain a business advantage. These laws tend to apply regardless of whether those practices are legal 
or  culturally  acceptable  in  a  particular  jurisdiction.  Over  the  past  several  years  there  has  been  an  increase  in  the 
enforcement of anti-corruption and antitrust or competition laws both globally and in particular jurisdictions and we have 
from  time  to  time  been  subject  to  investigations  and  charges  claiming  violations  of  anti-corruption  or  antitrust  or 

Board Report   Risk Factors     31

competition laws. We are committed to operating in compliance with all applicable laws, in particular, anti-corruption and 
antitrust or competition laws. We have implemented a program to promote compliance with these laws and to reduce 
the likelihood of potential violations. Our compliance program, however, may not in every instance protect us from acts 
committed by our employees, agents, contractors, or collaborators that may violate the applicable laws or regulations of 
the  jurisdictions  in  which  we  operate.  Such  improper  actions  could  subject  us  to  civil  or  criminal  investigations  and 
monetary,  injunctive  and  other  penalties  as  well  as  damage  claims.  Investigations  of  alleged  violations  of  these  laws 
tend  to  be  expensive  and  require  significant  management  time  and  attention,  and  these  investigations  of  purported 
violations, as well as any publicity regarding potential violations, could harm our reputation and have a material adverse 
effect on our business, results of operations and financial position. For further information see Note 27 “Commitments 
and contingencies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022.

Changes in privacy laws could disrupt our business

The  regulatory  framework  for  privacy  and  data  security  issues  worldwide  is  rapidly  evolving  and  is  likely  to  remain 
uncertain for the foreseeable future. We collect personal information and other data as part of our business operations. 
This data is subject to a variety of U.S. and foreign laws and regulations. For example, the European Union's General 
Data Protection Regulation imposes more stringent data protection requirements and provides for significant penalties 
for noncompliance. New privacy laws will continue to come into effect around the world. We may be required to incur 
significant costs to comply with these and other privacy and data security laws, rules and regulations. Any inability to 
adequately address privacy and security concerns or comply with applicable privacy and data security laws, rules and 
regulations could have an adverse effect on our business prospects, results of operations and/or financial position. 

New regulations or changes in financial services regulations could adversely impact us

Our Financial Services’ operations are highly regulated by governmental and banking authorities in the locations where 
we operate, which can impose significant additional costs and/or restrictions on our business. In the U.S., for example, 
the  requirements  of  the  Dodd-Frank  Wall  Street  Reform  and  Consumer  Protection  Act  of  2010  (“Dodd-Frank  Act”), 
including  its  regulations,  as  well  as  other  efforts  at  regulatory  reform  in  financial  services  may  substantially  affect  the 
origination, servicing, and securitization programs of our Financial Services segment as well as limit the ability of our 
customers  to  enter  into  hedging  transaction  or  finance  purchases  of  our  equipment.  The  Dodd-Frank  Act  also 
strengthens the regulatory oversight of these securities and related capital market activities by the SEC and increases 
the regulation of the ABS markets through, among other things, a mandated risk retention requirement for securitizers 
and  a  direction  to  regulate  credit  rating  agencies.  Future  regulations  may  affect  our  ability  to  engage  in  these  capital 
market activities or increase the effective cost of such transactions, which could adversely affect our financial position, 
results of operations and cash flows.

FINANCIAL AND TAXATION RISKS 

Difficulty in obtaining financing or refinancing existing debt could impact our financial performance  

Our  performance  will  depend  on,  among  other  things,  our  ability  to  finance  debt  repayment  obligations  and  planned 
investments  from  operating  cash  flow,  available  liquidity,  the  renewal  or  refinancing  of  existing  bank  loans  and/or 
facilities  and  access  to  capital  markets  or  other  sources  of  financing.  A  decline  in  revenues  could  have  a  negative 
impact  on  the  cash-generating  capacity  of  our  operations.  Consequently,  we  could  find  ourselves  in  the  position  of 
having to seek additional financing and/or having to refinance existing debt, including in unfavorable market conditions 
with limited availability of funding and a general increase in funding costs. Instability in global capital markets, including 
market  disruptions,  limited  liquidity  and  interest  rate  and  exchange  rate  volatility,  could  reduce  our  access  to  capital 
markets  or  increase  the  cost  of  our  short  and  long-term  financing. Any  difficulty  in  obtaining  financing  could  have  a 
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position. 

Our ability to access the capital markets or other forms of financing and related costs are highly dependent on, among 
other things, the credit ratings of CNH Industrial N.V., its subsidiaries, ABS and other debt instruments. Rating agencies 
may review and revise their ratings from time to time, and any downgrade or other negative action with respect to our 
credit ratings by one or more rating agencies may increase our cost of capital, potentially limit our access to sources of 
financing, and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 

We are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, interest rate changes and other market risks 

We operate in numerous markets worldwide and are exposed to market risks stemming from fluctuations in currency 
and interest rates, including as a result of changes in monetary or fiscal policies of governmental authorities from time 
to time. We are subject to currency exchange risk to the extent that our costs are denominated in currencies other than 
those in which we earn revenues. In addition, the reporting currency for our Consolidated Financial Statements is the 
U.S.  dollar.  Certain  of  our  assets,  liabilities,  expenses  and  revenues  are  denominated  in  other  currencies.  Those 
assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues are translated into the U.S. dollar at the applicable exchange rates to prepare 
our Consolidated Financial Statements. Therefore, increases or decreases in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar 
and those other currencies affect the value of those items reflected in our Consolidated Financial Statements, even if 

Board Report   Risk Factors     32

their value remains unchanged in their original currency. Changes in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar 
and other currencies have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our results of operations and financial condition. 

We use various forms of financing to cover the funding requirements of our Industrial Activities and for financing offered 
to customers and dealers by Financial Services. Financial Services normally implements a matching policy to offset the 
impact of differences in interest rates on the financed portfolio and related liabilities. Nevertheless, any future changes 
in interest rates can result in increases or decreases in revenues, finance costs and margins. 

Although we seek to manage our currency risk and interest rate risk, including through hedging activities, there can be 
no assurance that we will be able to do so successfully, and our business, results of operations and financial position 
could be adversely affected. In addition, by utilizing these instruments, we potentially forego the benefits that may result 
from favorable fluctuations in currency exchange and interest rates. For additional information, see Note 30 “Information 
on financial risks” to the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022.

We  also  face  risks  from  currency  devaluations.  Currency  devaluations  result  in  a  diminished  value  of  funds 
denominated in the currency of the country suffering the devaluation. 

Because Financial Services provides financing for a significant portion of our sales worldwide, our operations 
and  financial  results  could  be  impacted  materially  should  negative  economic  conditions  affect  the  financial 
services industry

Negative economic conditions can have an adverse effect on the financial services industry in which Financial Services 
operates. Financial Services, through wholly-owned financial services companies and joint ventures, provides financing 
for  a  significant  portion  of  our  sales  worldwide.  Financial  Services  may  experience  credit  losses  that  exceed  its 
expectations and adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations. Financial Services’ inability to access 
funds  at  cost-effective  rates  to  support  its  financing  activities  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business. 
Financial Services’ liquidity and ongoing profitability depend largely on timely access to capital in order to meet future 
cash  flow  requirements  and  to  fund  operations  and  costs  associated  with  engaging  in  diversified  funding  activities. 
Additionally,  negative  market  conditions  could  reduce  customer  confidence  levels,  resulting  in  declines  in  credit 
applications and increases in delinquencies and default rates, which could materially impact Financial Services’ write-
offs  and  provision  for  credit  losses.  Financial  Services  may  also  experience  residual  value  losses  that  exceed  its 
expectations caused by lower pricing for used equipment and higher than expected equipment returns at lease maturity. 

We are subject to interest rate risks and changes in interest rates can reduce demand for equipment, adversely 
affect  the  interest  margins  in  our  Financial  Services  segment,  and  limit  access  to  capital  markets  while 
increasing borrowing costs

Rising interest rates could have a dampening effect on overall economic activity as well as on the financial health of our 
customers,  either  of  which  could  negatively  affect  customer  demand  for  our  products  and  services  as  well  as 
customers’  ability  to  service  any  financing  provided  by  our  Financial  Services  segment.  In  addition,  credit  market 
dislocations could have an impact on funding costs, which in turn may make it more difficult for our Financial Services 
Segment to offer customers competitive financing rates. While we aim to limit the exposure of our net financial assets to 
changes in prevailing interest rates, interest rates volatility could have an adverse effect on our net interest rate margin -
i.e., the difference between the yield we earn on assets and the interest rates we pay. Actions by credit rating agencies, 
such  as  downgrades  or  negative  changes  to  ratings  outlooks,  can  affect  the  availability  and  cost  of  funding  for  the 
Group and can increase the Group’s cost of capital and hurt its competitive position.

An increase in delinquencies or repossessions could adversely affect the results of Financial Services

Fundamental  in  the  operation  of  Financial  Services  is  the  credit  risk  associated  with  its  customers/borrowers.  The 
creditworthiness  of  each  customer,  rates  of  delinquency  and  default,  repossessions  and  net  losses  on  loans  to 
customers are impacted by many factors, including: relevant industry and general economic conditions; the availability 
of  capital;  the  terms  and  conditions  applicable  to  extensions  of  credit;  the  experience  and  skills  of  the  customer’s 
management  team;  commodity  prices;  political  events,  including  government  mandated  moratoria  on  payments; 
weather; and the value of the collateral securing the extension of credit. An increase in delinquencies or defaults, or a 
reduction in repossessions could have an adverse impact on the performance of Financial Services and our earnings 
and cash flows. In addition, although Financial Services evaluates and adjusts its allowance for credit losses related to 
past  due  or  non-performing  receivables  on  a  regular  basis,  adverse  economic  conditions  or  other  factors  that  might 
cause deterioration of the customers' financial health could change the timing and level of payments received and thus 
necessitate an increase in Financial Services’ reserves for estimated losses, which could have a material adverse effect 
on Financial Services’ and our results of operations and cash flows.

We may be exposed to shortfalls in our pension plans 

At  December  31,  2022,  the  funded  status  for  our  defined  benefit  pension,  healthcare  and  other  post-employment 
benefits was a deficit of $379 million. The funded status is the balance between the present value of the defined benefit 
obligation  and  the  fair  value  of  related  assets,  in  case  of  funded  plans  (plans  managed  by  a  separate  fund,  “trust”). 
Consequently, the funded status is subject to many factors, as discussed in the Consolidated Financial Statements at 
December  31,  2022,  section  “Significant  Accounting  Policies”  paragraph  “Use  of  Estimates”,  as  well  as  Note  22 
“Provisions for employee benefits” to the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 .

To  the  extent  that  our  obligations  under  a  plan  are  unfunded  or  underfunded,  we  will  have  to  use  cash  flows  from 
operations  and  other  sources  to  pay  our  obligations  as  they  become  due.  In  addition,  since  the  assets  that  currently 
fund  these  obligations  are  primarily  invested  in  debt  instruments  and  equity  securities,  the  value  of  these  assets  is 
subject to changes due to market fluctuations.

We have significant outstanding indebtedness, which may limit our ability to obtain additional funding and may 
limit our financial and operating flexibility

As  of  December  31,  2022,  we  had  an  aggregate  of  $23,652  million  (including  $19,385  million  relating  to  Financial 
Services’  activities)  of  consolidated  gross  indebtedness,  and  our  equity  was  $7,559  million,  including  non-controlling 
interests. The extent of our indebtedness could have important consequences on our operations and financial results, 
including: 

▪

▪

▪

▪

▪
▪

▪

we  may  not  be  able  to  secure  additional  funds  for  working  capital,  capital  expenditures,  debt  service 
requirements or general corporate purposes; 

we may need to use a portion of our projected future cash flow from operations to pay principal and interest on 
our indebtedness, which may reduce the amount of funds available to us for other purposes; 

we  may  be  more  financially  leveraged  than  some  of  our  competitors,  which  could  put  us  at  a  competitive 
disadvantage; 

we may not be able to invest in the development or introduction of new products or new business 
opportunities; 

our future cash flow may be exposed to the risk of interest rate volatility (see above);

we may not be able to adjust rapidly to changing market conditions, which may make us more vulnerable to a 
downturn in general economic conditions; and 

we may not be able to access the capital markets on favorable terms, which may adversely affect our ability to 
provide competitive retail and wholesale financing programs. 

These risks are exacerbated by the ongoing volatility in the financial markets, in part resulting from perceived strains on 
the finances and creditworthiness of several governments and financial institutions, particularly in the European Union 
and South America, and from continued concerns about global economic growth, particularly in emerging markets.

Further,  due  to  the  cessation  of  the  London  Interbank  Offered  Rate  (“LIBOR”),  the  Group  has  entered  into  financial 
transactions such as credit agreements and certain derivative transactions that use the relevant new benchmark rates. 
These new benchmark rates are calculated differently from LIBOR and have inherent differences, which could give rise 
to uncertainties, including the limited historical data and volatility in the benchmark rates. The full effects of the transition 
to these new benchmark rates remain uncertain.

Restrictive covenants in our debt agreements could limit our financial and operating flexibility

The agreements governing our outstanding debt securities and other credit agreements to which we are a party from 
time to time contain, or may contain, covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things: 

▪

incur additional indebtedness by certain subsidiaries; 

▪ make certain investments; 

▪

▪

▪

enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; 

sell or acquire certain assets or merge with or into other companies; and/or 

use assets as security in other transactions. 

Although we do not believe any of these covenants materially restrict our operations currently, a breach of one or more 
of  the  covenants  could  result  in  adverse  consequences  that  could  negatively  impact  our  businesses,  results  of 
operations,  and  financial  position.  These  consequences  may  include  the  acceleration  of  amounts  outstanding  under 
certain of our credit facilities, triggering an obligation to redeem certain debt securities, termination of existing unused 
commitments  by  our  lenders,  refusal  by  our  lenders  to  extend  further  credit  under  one  or  more  of  the  facilities  or  to 
enter into new facilities or the lowering or modification of CNH Industrial’s credit ratings or those of one or more of its 
subsidiaries.  For  further  information,  see  Note  24  “Debt”  to  the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  at  December  31, 
2022.

CNH  Industrial  N.V.  operates  and  will  continue  to  operate,  as  a  company  that  is  resident  in  the  U.K.  for  tax 
purposes; other tax authorities may treat CNH Industrial N.V. as being tax resident elsewhere

CNH Industrial N.V. is not incorporated in the U.K.; therefore, in order to be resident in the U.K. for tax purposes, CNH 
Industrial  N.V.’s  central  management  and  control  must  be  located  (in  whole  or  in  part)  in  the  U.K. The  test  of  central 
management and control is largely a question of fact based on all the circumstances. The decisions of the U.K. courts 
and the published practice of His Majesty’s Revenue & Customs, or HMRC, suggest that CNH Industrial N.V. should be 
regarded as being U.K.-resident on this basis. The competent authority ruling referred to below supports this analysis. 
Although CNH Industrial N.V.’s “central management and control” is in the U.K., it would not be treated as U.K.-resident 
if  (a)  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  were  concurrently  resident  in  another  jurisdiction  (applying  the  tax  residence  rules  of  that 
jurisdiction)  which  has  a  double  tax  treaty  with  the  U.K.;  and  (b)  that  tax  treaty  allocates  exclusive  residence  to  that 
other jurisdiction. 

Although CNH Industrial N.V.’s central management and control is in the U.K., CNH Industrial N.V. is considered to be 
resident in the Netherlands for Dutch corporate income tax and Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes because CNH 
Industrial N.V. is incorporated in the Netherlands. The U.K. and Dutch competent authorities have agreed, following a 
mutual agreement procedure (as contemplated by the Netherlands-U.K. tax treaty), that CNH Industrial will be regarded 
as  solely  resident  in  the  U.K.  for  purposes  of  the  application  of  the  Netherlands-U.K.  tax  treaty  provided  that  CNH 
Industrial  operates  as  planned  and  provides  appropriate  required  evidence  to  the  U.K.  and  Dutch  competent  tax 
authorities.  If  the  facts  upon  which  the  competent  authorities  issued  this  ruling  change  over  time,  this  ruling  may  be 
withdrawn or cease to apply and in that case the Netherlands may levy corporate income tax on CNH Industrial N.V. 
and  impose  withholding  taxes  on  dividends  distributed  by  CNH  Industrial  N.V.,which  could  have  a  material  adverse 
effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

CNH Industrial N.V.’s residence for Italian tax purposes is also largely a question of fact based on all the circumstances. 
CNH  Industrial  N.V.  has  a  management  and  organizational  structure  such  that  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  should  not  be 
deemed  resident  in  Italy  under  Italian  domestic  law  except  to  the  extent  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.'s  Italian  branch,  and 
should be deemed resident exclusively in the U.K. from the date of its incorporation for purposes of the Italy-U.K. tax 
treaty. Because this analysis is highly factual and may depend on future changes in CNH Industrial’s management and 
organizational structure, there can be no assurance regarding the final determination of its tax residence. Should CNH 
Industrial N.V. be treated as an Italian tax resident, CNH Industrial would be subject to corporate income tax in Italy on 
its worldwide income and may be required to comply with withholding tax on dividends and other distributions and/or 
reporting obligations under Italian law, which could result in additional costs and expenses, which may have a material 
adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.  

Tax may be required to be withheld from dividend payments 

The  U.K.  does  not  require  U.K.  tax-resident  companies  to  withhold  tax  from  dividend  payments  (except  in 
circumstances that are not relevant to CNH Industrial). Although the U.K. and Dutch competent authorities have ruled 
that  we  should  be  treated  as  solely  resident  in  the  U.K.  for  the  purposes  of  the  Netherlands-U.K.  double  tax  treaty, 
dividend  payments  made  by  us  to  Dutch  residents  are  still  subject  to  Dutch  dividend  withholding  tax  under  Dutch 
domestic law and we have no obligation to gross-up or pay additional amounts in respect of such dividend payments. 
This position with respect to dividend withholding is contingent upon CNH Industrial’s maintenance of its exclusive U.K. 
tax residency and is subject to any future change of law. 
In the case that withholding taxes are imposed on future dividends or distributions with respect to our common shares 
due to a change in law or for any other reason, whether such withholding taxes are creditable against a tax liability to 
which a shareholder is otherwise subject depends on the laws of such shareholder’s jurisdiction and such shareholder’s 
particular  circumstances.  Shareholders  are  urged  to  consult  their  tax  advisors  in  respect  of  the  consequences  of  the 
potential imposition of withholding taxes. 

The Company could be characterized as a passive foreign investment company (PFIC) for U.S. federal income 
tax purposes

The  U.S.  federal  income  tax  rules  provide  specific  tax  rules  applicable  to  shareholders  in  companies  that  meet  the 
definition of a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We believe that the 
Company  is  not  a  passive  foreign  investment  company,  but  this  conclusion  is  a  factual  determination  made  annually 
and  may  be  subject  to  change.  U.S.  Holders  of  our  ordinary  shares  may  suffer  adverse  tax  consequences  if  we  are 
characterized as a passive foreign investment company.

We may incur additional tax expense or become subject to additional tax exposure

We  are  subject  to  income  taxes,  as  well  as  non-income-based  taxes,  in  various  jurisdictions  in  which  we  operate  
around  the  world.  Our  tax  liabilities  are  dependent  upon  the  mix  of  earnings  among  these  different  jurisdictions.  Our 
future results of operations could be adversely affected by changes in the consolidated effective tax rate as a result of a 
change in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in our overall profitability, changes 
to  our  transfer  pricing  approach,  changes  in  tax  legislation  and  rates,  changes  in  generally  accepted  accounting 

Board Report   Risk Factors     35

principles and changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. If our effective tax rates were to increase, 
or if the ultimate determination of our taxes owed is for an amount in excess of amounts previously accrued or paid, our 
operating  results,  cash  flows,  and  financial  position  could  be  adversely  affected.  We  are  also  subject  to  ongoing  tax 
audits  in  the  various  jurisdictions  in  which  we  operate.  Tax  authorities  may  disagree  with  certain  positions  we  have 
taken and assess additional taxes. We regularly assess the likely outcomes of these audits in order to determine the 
appropriateness of our tax provision. However, there can be no assurance that we will accurately predict the outcomes 
of  these  audits,  and  the  actual  outcomes  of  these  audits  could  have  a  material  impact  on  our  business,  results  of 
operations, financial condition, and cash flows, see Note 9 “Income tax (expense) benefit” to the Consolidated Financial 
Statements at December 31, 2022.  

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON SHARES

Our maintenance of two exchange listings may adversely affect liquidity in the market for our common shares 
and could result in pricing differentials of our common shares between the two exchanges

The dual listing of our common shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Euronext Milan (previously 
named MTA) may split trading between the two markets and adversely affect the liquidity of the shares in one or both 
markets and the development of an active trading market for our common shares on the NYSE and may result in price 
differentials between the exchanges. Differences in the trading schedules, trading volume and investor bases, as well 
as volatility in the exchange rate between the two trading currencies, among other factors, may result in different trading 
prices  for  our  common  shares  on  the  two  exchanges  or  otherwise  adversely  affect  liquidity  and  trading  prices  of  our 
shares. On February 1, 2023, the Company announced that it believes that its shareholders will be best served by a 
single stock listing on the NYSE and that we are monitoring the ongoing initiatives of harmonization and simplification of 
the  legal  and  regulatory  framework  of  the  Italian  financial  system  that  could  allow  for  a  smooth  transition  to  a  single 
listing on the NYSE. There can be no assurance that these initiatives will be completed or as beneficial as anticipated, 
in which case the company will have to pursue other avenues to achieve the single listing on the NYSE. There can be 
also no assurance or that the estimated efficiency will be realized as anticipated or at all. As a result, our stock price 
might be more volatile than it would be if it was listed on a single stock exchange. 

The loyalty voting program may affect the liquidity of our common shares and reduce our share price 

CNH  Industrial’s  loyalty  voting  program  was  established  to  reward  shareholders  for  maintaining  long-term  share 
ownership by granting at inception initial shareholders and subsequently any other person holding shares continuously 
for at least three years, the option to elect to receive special voting shares. Issuance of special voting shares is subject 
to  various  conditions  set  forth  in  the  Company's  constituting  documents,  including  the  registration  of  the  common 
shares  held  by  each  shareholder  requesting  the  issuance  of  special  voting  shares  in  the  CNH  Industrial  Loyalty 
Register.  Special  voting  shares  have  minimal  economic  entitlements  and  cannot  be  traded.  In  the  event  any 
shareholder holding such special voting shares intends to transfer its common shares from the CNH Industrial Loyalty 
Register,  immediately  prior  to  such  transfer,  any  corresponding  special  voting  shares  shall  be  transferred  to  CNH 
Industrial  for  no  consideration  (om  niet).  This  loyalty  voting  program  is  designed  to  encourage  a  stable  shareholder 
base  and,  conversely,  it  may  deter  trading  by  those  shareholders  who  are  interested  in  gaining  or  retaining  special 
voting shares. Therefore, the loyalty voting structure may reduce liquidity in our common shares and adversely affect 
their trading price.   

The loyalty voting program may prevent or frustrate attempts by our shareholders to change our management 
and hinder efforts to acquire a controlling interest in us, and the market price of our common shares may be 
lower as a result

The provisions of our Articles of Association establishing the loyalty voting program may make it more difficult for a third 
party to acquire, or attempt to acquire, control of us, even if a change of control is considered favorably by shareholders 
holding a majority of our common shares. As a result of the loyalty voting program, a relatively large proportion of the 
voting  power  of  our  common  shares  could  be  concentrated  in  a  relatively  small  number  of  shareholders  who  would 
have  significant  influence  over  us. As  of  December  31,  2022,  EXOR  N.V.  had  a  voting  interest  in  CNH  Industrial  of 
approximately  42.8%.  For  further  information,  see  section  “Major  Shareholders”  and  Note  32  "Related  party 
transactions" to the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022. Such shareholders participating in the 
loyalty  voting  program  could  effectively  prevent  change  of  control  transactions  that  may  otherwise  benefit  our 
shareholders.  

The  loyalty  voting  program  may  also  prevent  or  discourage  shareholders’  initiatives  aimed  at  changes  in  our 
management.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION

During 2021, CNH Industrial completed a strategic project to separate the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business”) from the 
Agriculture business, the Construction business, and the related Financial Services business. 

The Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. in accordance with Section 2:334a (3) of the Dutch 
Civil  Code  (Burgerlijk  Wetboek)  by  way  of  a  legal  statutory  demerger  (jurisdiche  afsplitsing)  to  Iveco  Group  N.V.  (the 
"Demerger"), effective January 1, 2022. 

A  description  of  the  principal  phases  leading  up  to  completion  of  the  Demerger  is  provided  in  the  Notes  to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

As the transaction took effect on January 1, 2022, the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 
31, 2022 relate to the remaining CNH Industrial business. Moreover, in accordance with IFRS 5 – Non-current Assets 
Held  for  Sale  and  Discontinued  Operations,  for  the  corresponding  information  of  earlier  periods,  the  Iveco  Group 
business is classified and presented as Discontinued Operations in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

For  additional  detail  of  items  presented  under  Discontinued  Operations  in  the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Income, 
Financial  Position  and  Cash  Flows,  refer  to  the  section  "Scope  of  Consolidation  -  Discontinued  Operations  -  Iveco 
Group Business".

Additionally, as the Demerger is a “business combination involving entities or businesses under common control”, it is 
outside the scope of application of IFRS 3 – Business Combinations and IFRIC 17- Distributions of Non-cash Assets to 
Owners.  Accordingly,  in  the  2022  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for  CNH  Industrial  Post-Demerger  the  opening 
position  for  items  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  will  be  equivalent  to  the  carrying  amounts  reported  in  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements of CNH Industrial Pre-Demerger.

GENERAL 

Until  December  31,  2021,  CNH  Industrial  was  a  leading  global  capital  goods  company  engaged  in  the  design, 
production,  marketing,  sale,  and  financing  of  agricultural  and  construction  equipment,  trucks,  commercial  vehicles, 
buses and specialty vehicles for firefighting, defense and other uses, as well as engines, transmissions and axles for 
those  vehicles  and  engines  for  marine  and  power  generation  applications.  At  the  same  date,  CNH  Industrial  had 
industrial  and  financial  services  companies  located  in 44  countries  and  a  commercial  presence  in  approximately  180 
countries.

Following  the  Demerger,  effective  January  1,  2022,  CNH  Industrial  is  a  leading  equipment  and  services  company 
engaged in the design, production, marketing, sale, and financing of agricultural and construction equipment. We have 
industrial  and  financial  services  company  located  in  32  countries  and  a  commercial  presence  in  approximately  170 
countries.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW 

Agriculture 

The  operators  of  dairy,  livestock  and  row  crop  producing  farms,  as  well  as  independent  contractors  that  provide 
services to such farms, purchase most agricultural equipment. Row crop farmers typically purchase tractors at the mid-
to-upper  end  of  the  horsepower  ("hp")  range,  combines  and  harvesting  equipment  and  crop  production  equipment. 
Dairy  and  livestock  farmers  typically  utilize  tractors  in  the  mid-to-lower  hp  range  and  crop  preparation  and  crop 
packaging implements. The key factors influencing sales of agricultural equipment are the level of net farm income and, 
to  a  lesser  extent,  general  economic  conditions,  interest  rates  and  the  availability  of  financing  and  related  subsidy 
programs,  farmland  prices  and  farm  debt  levels.  Net  farm  income  is  primarily  impacted  by  the  volume  of  acreage 
planted, commodity and/or livestock prices and stock levels, crop yields, farm operating expenses (including fuel and 
fertilizer costs), fluctuations in currency exchange rates, government subsidies, tax incentives and trade policies. The 
availability, quality, and cost of used equipment for sale affects the level of new equipment sales. Weather conditions 
are  a  major  determinant  of  crop  yields  and  crop  prices  and  therefore  affect  equipment-buying  decisions.  Global 
organization  initiatives,  such  as  those  of  the  World  Trade  Organization,  also  can  affect  the  market  acceptance  of 
genetically modified organisms such as seed, feed and animals and climate change and sustainability initiatives. 

Demand for agricultural equipment also varies seasonally by region and product, primarily due to differing climates and 
farming calendars. Peak retail deliveries for tractors and planting, seeding, and application equipment typically occurs in 
March  through  June  in  the  Northern  hemisphere  and  in  September  through  December  in  the  Southern  hemisphere. 
Dealers order equipment year-round but harvesting equipment orders in the Northern hemisphere generally increase in 
the late fall and winter so that the dealers can receive inventory prior to the peak retail selling season, which generally 
extends from March through June. In the Southern hemisphere, dealers generally order between August and October 
so they can receive inventory prior to the peak retail-selling season, which extends from November through February. 
Agriculture's production levels are based upon estimated retail demand, which takes into account, among other things, 

Board Report   Business Overview     38

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
the  timing  of  dealer  shipments,  dealer  and  Company  inventory  levels,  the  need  to  retool  manufacturing  facilities  to 
produce  new  or  different  models,  and  the  efficient  use  of  labor  and  facilities.  However,  because  production  and 
wholesale shipments adjust throughout the year to take into account the factors described above, sales of agricultural 
equipment  in  any  given  period  may  not  reflect  the  timing  of  dealer  orders  and  retail  demand  for  that  period.  This 
situation  has  been  emphasized  during  the  recent  pandemic  and  current  post-pandemic  environment  where  global 
supply  chains  have  been  disrupted  for  a  series  of  reasons  linked  with  production  not  able  to  match  demand  and 
transportation becoming congested with increases in lead times and expenses. 

Customer  preferences  regarding  farming  practices,  and  thus  product  types  and  features,  vary  by  region.  In  North 
America, Australia,  Brazil, Argentina  and  other  areas  where  soil  conditions,  climate,  economic  factors  and  population 
density  allow  for  intensive  mechanized  agriculture,  farmers  generally  demand  high  capacity,  sophisticated  machines 
equipped with the most advanced technology. In Europe, where farms are generally smaller in size than those in North 
America  and  Australia,  there  is  greater  demand  for  somewhat  smaller,  yet  equally  sophisticated,  machines.  In  the 
developing regions of the world where labor is more abundant and infrastructure, soil conditions and/or climate are not 
conducive to intensive agriculture, customers generally prefer simpler and easy to use machines with relatively lower 
acquisition and operating costs. In many developing countries, tractors are the primary type of agricultural equipment 
used, and much of the agricultural work in such countries that cannot be performed by tractors is carried out by hand. A 
growing  number  of  part-time  farmers,  hobby  farmers  and  customers  engaged  in  landscaping,  municipality  and  park 
maintenance, golf course and roadside mowing in Western Europe and North America prefer relatively simple, low-cost 
agricultural  equipment.  Our  position  as  a  geographically  diversified  manufacturer  of  agricultural  equipment  and  our 
broad  geographic  network  of  dealers  allows  us  to  provide  customers  in  each  significant  market  with  equipment  that 
meets their specific requirements.

One trend in North American and Western European agricultural industries include a reduction in number but growth in 
size of farms, supporting increased demand for higher capacity agricultural equipment. In addition, we believe that the 
use  of  technology  and  other  precision  farming  solutions  (including  the  development  of  autonomously  operated 
equipment) to enhance productivity, profitability and environmental impact are becoming more important in the buyers’ 
purchasing  decision.  In  South  America,  India  and  in  other  emerging  markets,  the  number  of  farms  is  growing,  and 
mechanization is replacing manual labor. In other markets, long-term demographic trends, increasing urbanization, and 
low level of farm mechanization represent the key drivers of demand for agricultural equipment. 

Government  farm  programs,  including  the  amount  and  timing  of  government  payments,  are  a  key  income  driver  for 
farmers  raising  certain  commodity  crops  in  the  United  States  (the  "U.S.")  and  the  European  Union. The  existence  of 
comprehensive  subsidies  in  these  agricultural/farm  markets  reduces  the  effects  of  cyclicality  in  the  agricultural 
equipment  business.  The  existence  and  extent  of  subsidies  depends  largely  on  the  U.S.  Farm  Bill  and  programs 
administered  by  the  United  States  Department  of Agriculture,  the  Common Agricultural  Policy  of  the  European  Union 
and  World  Trade  Organization  negotiations.  Additionally,  the  Brazilian  government  subsidizes  the  purchase  of 
agricultural equipment through low-rate financing programs administered by the Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento 
Economico e Social (“BNDES”). These programs have had over the years a significant influence on sales. 

Global demand for renewable fuels increased considerably in recent years driven by consumer preference, government 
renewable fuel mandates, renewable fuel tax and production incentives. Biofuels, which include fuels such as ethanol 
and biodiesel, have become one of the most prevalent types of renewable fuels. The primary type of biofuel supported 
by  government  mandates  and  incentives  varies  by  region.  North America  and  Brazil  are  promoting  ethanol  first  and 
then biodiesel, while Europe is primarily focused on biodiesel and biomethane. 

The  demand  for  biofuels  has  created  an  associated  demand  for  agriculturally  based  feedstocks,  which  are  used  to 
produce  biofuels.  Currently,  most  of  the  ethanol  in  the  U.S.  and  Europe  is  extracted  from  corn,  while  in  Brazil  it  is 
extracted from sugar cane. Biodiesel is typically extracted from soybeans and rapeseed oil in the U.S. and Brazil, and 
from  rapeseed  and  other  oil  seeds  as  well  as  food  waste  by-products  in  Europe.  The  use  of  corn  and  soybeans  for 
biofuel has been one of the main factors affecting the supply and demand relationships, as well as the price for these 
crops. The economic feasibility of biofuels is significantly impacted by the price of oil. As the price of oil falls, biofuels 
become a less attractive alternative energy source. This relationship will, however, be impacted by government policy 
and mandates as governments around the world consider ways to combat global warming and avoid potential energy 
resource issues in the future. 

Sustainability  has  been  a  focus  of  CNH  Industrial  since  2013.  During  the  2022  United  Nations  Climate  Change 
Conference, COP27 event in Egypt, there was a continued emphasis on carbon reduction with significant attention on 
the establishment of a Loss and Damage Fund, which aims to provide financial assistance to nations most vulnerable 
and  impacted  by  the  effects  of  climate  change.  With  the  use  of  a  bio-digester,  animal  waste  and  food  waste  can  be 
processed  to  produce  bio-methane.  New  Holland  developed  a  Methane  Powered  Tractor  that  runs  on  methane 
produced on the farm from animal and food waste. Moreover, in 2021 CNH Industrial has invested with a minority equity 
share participation into the U.K. based technology start-up, Bennamann, which has developed an on-site kit for small-
medium  size  livestock  farms  to  capture  and  repurpose  fugitive  methane  from  their  waste  and  generate  bio-methane 
which could potentially allow a successful implementation of the circular economy.

Board Report   Business Overview     39

This  approach  also  improves  the  sustainability  of  farmland  management  practices  through  minimizing  artificial  inputs 
such  as  manufactured  fertilizer,  lowering  operational  costs  and  reducing  pollutants.  This  concept  is  intended  to 
contribute to a dairy farm's decarbonization.

The developments in precision agriculture technology are designed to allow farmers to increase yield with reduced input 
costs  in  the  areas  of  labor,  fertilizer,  chemicals  and  water.  Further,  with  shorter  planting  and  harvesting  cycles 
experienced  in  recent  years,  we  believe  that  precision  agriculture  technology  will  help  drive  replacement  demand  for 
new farm equipment as this technology is designed to improve farm efficiency.

Construction 

The  construction  equipment  market  consists  of  two  principal  segments:  heavy  construction  equipment  (excluding  the 
mining  and  the  specialized  forestry  equipment  markets  in  which  we  do  not  participate),  with  equipment  generally 
weighing more than 12 metric tons, and light construction equipment, with equipment generally weighing less than 12 
metric tons. 

In developed markets, customers tend to prefer more sophisticated machines equipped with the latest technology and 
features to improve operator productivity. In developing markets, customers tend to prefer equipment that is relatively 
less  costly  and  has  greater  perceived  durability.  In  North  America  and  Europe,  where  the  hourly  cost  of  machine 
operators  is  higher  relative  to  fuel  costs  and  machine  depreciation,  customers  typically  emphasize  productivity, 
performance  and  reliability.  In  other  markets,  where  the  relative  cost  for  machine  operators  is  lower,  customers  often 
continue to use equipment after its relative performance and efficiency have begun to diminish.  

Customer  demand  for  power  and  operating  capacity  does  not  vary  significantly  from  market  to  market.  However,  in 
many countries, restrictions on equipment weight or dimensions, as well as road regulations or job site constraints can 
limit demand for larger machines. 

Although  the  demand  for  new  construction  equipment  tends  to  decrease  during  periods  of  economic  stagnation  or 
recession, the aftersales market is historically less volatile than the new equipment market and, therefore, helps limit 
the impact of declines in new equipment sales on the operating results of full-line manufacturers, such as Construction. 

Heavy Construction 

Heavy  construction  equipment  typically  includes  general  construction  equipment  such  as  large  wheel  loaders  and 
excavators, and road building and site preparation equipment such as graders, compactors and dozers. Purchasers of 
heavy  construction  equipment  include  construction  companies,  municipalities,  local  governments,  rental  fleet  owners, 
quarrying and mining companies, waste management companies and forestry-related concerns. 

Sales of heavy construction equipment depend on the expected volume of major infrastructure construction and repair 
projects  such  as  highway,  tunnel,  dam  and  harbor  projects,  which  depend  on  government  spending  and  economic 
growth.  Demand  for  aggregate  mining  and  quarrying  equipment  is  more  closely  linked  to  the  general  economy  and 
commodity  prices,  while  growing  demand  for  environmental  equipment  is  becoming  less  sensitive  to  the  economic 
cycle. In North America, a portion of heavy equipment demand has historically been linked to the development of new 
housing subdivisions, where the entire infrastructure needs to be created, thus linking demand for both heavy and light 
construction equipment. The heavy equipment industry generally follows macroeconomic cyclicality, linked to growth in 
gross domestic product. 

Light Construction 

Light  construction  equipment  is  also  known  as  compact  and  service  equipment,  and  it  includes  skid-steer  loaders, 
compact  track  loaders,  tractor  loaders,  rough  terrain  forklifts,  backhoe  loaders,  small  wheel  loaders  and  excavators. 
Purchasers  of  light  construction  equipment  include  contractors,  residential  builders,  utilities,  road  construction 
companies, rental fleet owners, landscapers, logistics companies, and farmers. The principal factor influencing sales of 
light construction equipment is the level of residential and commercial construction, remodeling and renovation, which is 
influenced  by  interest  rates  and  the  availability  of  financing.  Other  major  factors  include  the  construction  of  light 
infrastructure, such as utilities, cabling and piping and maintenance expenditures. The principal use of light construction 
equipment is to replace relatively high-cost, slower manual work. Product demand in the United States and Europe has 
generally tended to mirror housing starts, with lags of six to twelve months. In areas where labor is abundant, and the 
cost of labor is inexpensive relative to other inputs, such as in India, Africa and South America, the light construction 
equipment  market  is  generally  smaller.  These  regions  represent  potential  areas  of  growth  for  light  construction 
equipment  in  the  medium  to  long-term  as  labor  costs  rise  relative  to  the  cost  of  equipment  or  the  supply  of  labor 
contracts leading to increased mechanization. 

Equipment  rental  is  a  significant  element  of  the  construction  equipment  market.  Compared  to  the  U.K.  and  Japan, 
where there is an established market for long-term equipment rentals as a result of favorable tax treatment, the rental 
market  in  North  America  and  Western  Europe  (except  for  the  U.K.)  consists  mainly  of  short-term  rentals  of  light 
construction equipment to individuals or small contractors for which the purchase of equipment is not cost effective or 
that need specialized equipment for specific jobs. In North America, the main rental product has traditionally been the 

Board Report   Business Overview     40

backhoe loader and, in Western Europe, it has been the mini-excavator. As the market has evolved, a greater variety of 
light  and  heavy  equipment  products  have  become  available  to  rent.  In  addition,  rental  companies  have  allowed 
contractors to rent machines for longer periods instead of purchasing the equipment, enabling contractors to complete 
specific  job  requirements  with  greater  flexibility  and  cost  control.  Large,  national  rental  companies  can  significantly 
impact  the  construction  equipment  market,  with  purchase  volumes  being  driven  by  their  decisions  to  increase  or 
decrease the size of their rental fleets based on rental utilization rates. 

Seasonal demand for construction equipment fluctuates somewhat less than for agricultural equipment. Nevertheless, 
in North America and Western Europe, housing construction generally slows during the winter months. North American 
and  European  industry  retail  demand  for  construction  equipment  is  generally  strongest  in  the  second  and  fourth 
quarters. 

Agricultural  and  landscaping  customers  also  contribute  to  a  significant  portion  of  the  North America  light  equipment 
market. In this segment the main applications are related to material handling.

In markets outside of North America, Western Europe and Japan, equipment demand may also be partially satisfied by 
importing  used  equipment.  Used  heavy  construction  equipment  from  North America  may  fulfill  demand  in  the  South 
American  market  and  equipment  from  Western  Europe  may  be  sold  to  Central  and  Eastern  European,  North African 
and  Middle  Eastern  markets.  Used  heavy  and  light  equipment  from  Japan  is  mostly  sold  to  other  Southeast  Asian 
markets,  while  used  excavators  from  Japan  are  sold  to  almost  every  other  market  in  the  world.  This  flow  of  used 
equipment is highly influenced by exchange rates, the weight and dimensions of the equipment and the different local 
regulations in terms of safety and/or engine emissions. 

The  construction  equipment  industry  has  seen  an  increase  in  the  use  of  hydraulic  excavators  and  wheel  loaders  in 
earth-moving  and  material  handling  applications.  In  addition,  the  light  equipment  sector  has  grown  as  more  manual 
labor  is  being  replaced  on  construction  sites  by  machines  with  a  variety  of  attachments  for  specialized  applications, 
such as skid steer loaders, compact track loaders and mini-crawler excavators.  

COMPETITION 

The  Agriculture  and  Construction  equipment  industries  are  highly  competitive.  We  believe  that  we  have  many 
competitive strengths that will enable us to improve our position in markets where we are already well established while 
we direct additional resources to markets and products with high growth potential. 

We compete with: (i) large global full-line equipment manufacturers with a presence in every market and a broad range 
of  products  that  cover  most  customer  needs,  (ii)  manufacturers  who  are  product  specialists  focused  on  particular 
industry  segments  on  either  a  global  or  regional  basis,  (iii)  regional  full-line  manufacturers,  some  of  which  are 
expanding worldwide to build a global presence, and (iv) local, low-cost manufacturers in individual markets, particularly 
in emerging markets such as Eastern Europe, India and China.  

Our competitive strengths include well-recognized brands, a full range of competitive products and features, including 
software,  a  strong  presence,  distribution  and  customer  service  network.  There  are  multiple  factors  that  influence  a 
buyer’s choice of industrial equipment. These factors include the strength and quality of the distribution network, brand 
loyalty, product features, quality and performance, availability of a full product range, pricing, technological innovations, 
product availability, financing terms, parts and warranty programs, resale value and customer service and satisfaction. 
The ability to meet or exceed applicable engine emissions standards as they take effect is also a key competitive factor, 
particularly  in  those  markets  where  such  standards  are  the  subject  of  frequent  legislative  or  regulatory  scrutiny  and 
change,  such  as  Europe  and  North  America.  Emission  regulations  are  becoming  a  significant  competitive  factor  at 
global level with new legislation in India and China. We continually seek to improve in each of these areas but focus 
primarily  on  providing  high-quality  and  high-value  products  and  on  supporting  those  products  through  our  dealer 
networks. Customers’ perceptions of product value in terms of productivity, reliability, digital content, resale value and 
dealer support are formed over many years. Buyers tend to favor brands based on experience with the product and the 
dealer.  

The efficiency of our manufacturing, logistics and scheduling systems are dependent on forecasts of industry volumes 
and our anticipated share of industry sales, which is predicated on our ability to compete successfully with others in the 
marketplace.  We  compete  based  on  product  performance,  customer  service,  quality,  innovation  and  price.  The 
environment  is  by  nature  competitive  from  a  pricing  standpoint,  but  we  have  been  able  to  counter  inflationary  cost 
increases  with  positive  price  realization.  There  is  no  guarantee  that  we  can  maintain  positive  price  realization  in  the 
future.  The  ability  of  our  supply  chain  and  manufacturing  system  to  timely  deliver  finished  goods  is  also  critical  to 
meeting customer expectations. Failure to do so might imply losses of market share and competitiveness. 

Our  main  competitors  in  the  agricultural  equipment  market  are  Deere  &  Company, AGCO  Corporation,  Claas  Group, 
Kubota Tractor Corporation, Argo Tractors S.p.A., and the Same Deutz Fahr Group.

Our  principal  competitors  in  the  construction  equipment  market  are  Caterpillar  Inc.,  Komatsu  Ltd.,  J  C  Bamford 
Excavators Ltd., Hitachi Construction Machinery Co, Ltd., Volvo Group, Liebherr Group, Doosan Group, Kubota Tractor 
Corporation, and Deere & Company.

PRODUCTS AND MARKETS 

Agriculture 

To capitalize on customer loyalty to its dealers and its brands, Agriculture’s product lines are sold primarily under the 
Case IH and New Holland Agriculture brands as well as the STEYR and Kongskilde brands in Europe and the Miller 
and Flexi-Coil brands, primarily in North America and Australia. Raven primarily operates in North America, Australia, 
South  America  and  Europe.  Certain  agricultural  equipment  products  are  also  sold  under  Överum  (a  sub-brand  of 
Kongskilde), K-Line and JF brands. We believe that these brands enjoy high levels of brand identification and loyalty 
among both customers and dealers.  

Although  newer  generation  tractors  have  a  high  percentage  of  common  mechanical  components,  each  brand  and 
product remains differentiated by features, color, interior and exterior styling, warranty terms, technology offering, and 
model designation. Flagship products such as row crop tractors and large combine harvesters may have significantly 
greater differentiation.  
Distinctive features that are specific to a particular brand such as the Supersteer® tractor axle or Twin Rotor combine 
threshing  technology  for  New  Holland,  the  Case  IH  tracked  four-wheel  drive  tractor,  Quadtrac®,  and  the  front  axle 
mounted  hitch  for  STEYR  tractors  are  examples  of  certain  distinctive  features  that  remain  an  important  part  of  each 
brand’s unique identity. 

Agriculture’s  product  lines  include  tractors,  combine  harvesters,  hay  and  forage  equipment,  seeding  and  planting 
equipment,  and  self-propelled  sprayers.  Our  agricultural  equipment  is  sold  with  a  limited  warranty  that  typically  runs 
from one to three years.

Case IH and New Holland Agriculture brands enable their customers to visualize and share in-depth real-time machine 
and farm operation data within the respective AFS-PLM Farm solution and offer data sharing to a vast number of third 
party  providers  at  full  control  of  the  customer. Agriculture  launched AGXTENDTM,  focused  exclusively  on  aftermarket 
precision  farming  technology  solutions.  AGXTENDTM  is  designed  to  provide  our  dealers  and  customers  access  to 
innovative and more sustainable productivity enhancing precision farming technologies.

CNH Industrial acquired AgDNA an industry leading Farm Management Information System (FMIS) that automatically 
collects and analyzes data from equipment manufactured by CNH Industrial and third-party manufacturers. The cloud-
based  platform  analyzes  equipment,  agronomic  and  environmental  data  to  deliver  actionable  insights  directly  to 
customers'  smartphones  and  tablets  to  help  them  maximize  the  agronomic  performance  of  their  CNH  Industrial  and 
other equipment to increase farm profitability. 

Raven Industries, Inc., ("Raven") formerly a long-term strategic supplier, was acquired in order to expand our portfolio 
of precision agriculture technology offerings and to accelerate the development of advanced machine automation and 
autonomous agriculture technology. 

With  Raven  as  part  of  the  Agriculture  product  portfolio,  we  now  design,  manufacture,  sell,  and  service  innovative 
precision  agriculture  products,  autonomous  solutions,  and  information  management  tools,  which  are  collectively 
referred  to  as  precision  agriculture  equipment.  Our  Precision  Agriculture  suite  of  solutions  encompass  connected 
platforms,  automation  solutions  and  autonomous  capabilities.  Our  technology  stack  includes  satellite  guided 
positioning,  telemetric  connectivity,  automation  software,  ruggedized  sensors  and  cross  validation/machine  learning 
aided by edge and cloud computing. Our connected platforms link farmers to their equipment, dealers, input providers, 
partners  and  other  advisors  enabling  real  time  monitoring  of  their  operations  and  logistics  management  capabilities.  
Our Raven brand offers retrofit solutions to upgrade farmer's existing equipment, resulting in increased productivity and 
reduced cost across the full fleet of equipment. 

Construction 

Construction’s product lines are sold primarily under the CASE Construction Equipment and New Holland Construction 
brands. CASE provides a wide range of products on a global scale, including crawler excavators and mini-excavators. 
The New Holland Construction brand family also markets a full product line of construction equipment in South America 
and focuses on light equipment distributed by the Agriculture network in the other regions. In 2021, we completed the 
acquisition of Sampierana S.p.A., which provides Construction direct control over technology and manufacturing of Mini 
and Midi Excavators.   

Construction's products often share common components to achieve economies of scale in manufacturing, purchasing, 
and  development.  Construction  differentiates  these  products  based  on  the  relative  product  value,  technology,  design 
concept, productivity, product serviceability, color, and styling to preserve the unique identity of each brand. 

Heavy  construction  equipment  product  lines  include  general  construction  equipment  such  as  large  excavators  and 
wheel  loaders,  and  road  building  and  site  preparation  equipment  such  as  compactors,  graders  and  dozers.  Light 
construction  equipment  is  also  known  as  compact  and  service  equipment,  and  its  product  lines  include  backhoe 
loaders, skid steer and tracked loaders, mini- and midi- excavators, and compact wheel loaders. The brands each offer 
parts  and  support  services  for  all  of  their  product  lines.  Our  construction  equipment  is  generally  sold  with  a  limited 
warranty that typically runs from one to two years.

We continue to evaluate our Construction business with a view toward increasing efficiencies and profitability as well as 
evaluating its strategic alliances to improve its position in key markets.  

SALES AND DISTRIBUTION 

Agriculture and Construction 

Agriculture  sells  and  distributes  products  through  dealers  that  sell  either  Case  IH  products,  New  Holland  products  or 
both  brands.  Case  IH  has  898  dealers  worldwide  with  more  than  2,500  point  of  sale  locations  and  New  Holland  has 
more  than  1,800  dealers  worldwide  and  more  than  3,700  point  of  sale  locations.  Construction  sells  and  distributes 
products  through  approximately  420  full-line  dealers  and  distributors  with  over  1,580  points  of  sale. Agriculture’s  and 
Construction’s  dealers  are  almost  all  independently  owned  and  operated.  Some  Agriculture  dealers  also  sell 
construction equipment. In the United States, Canada, Mexico, most of Western Europe, Brazil, Argentina, India, China, 
Thailand, Australia, and South Africa products are generally distributed directly through the independent dealer network. 
In the rest of the world, products are either sold to independent distributors who then resell to dealers, or to importers 
who have their own branches to sell product to retail customers.  

Consistent  with  our  brand  promotion  program,  we  generally  seek  to  have  dealers  sell  a  full  range  of  our  products. 
Typically,  a  dealer  is  appointed  to  sell  one  brand  in  a  specific  territory,  but  depending  on  market  potential,  history, 
capabilities and commitment of the dealer operator, a multi-brand approach is also pursued in some territories. In each 
region,  we  seek  to  optimize  our  distribution  strategy  to  maximize  customer  satisfaction  and  sales  while  reducing 
structural  costs.  This  results  in  two  far-reaching  networks  representing  two  strong  brands  with  unique  identities  and 
strengths to compete against all non-CNH Industrial brands in any given territory.

In  larger  markets,  a  trade-in  of  used  equipment  typically  accompanies  the  sale  of  new  equipment  to  end-users.  We 
often provide marketing assistance to our dealers to support the sale of used, trade-in equipment through subsidized 
financing incentives, inventory carrying cost defrayment, or other methods.

Exclusive,  dedicated  dealers  generally  provide  a  higher  level  of  market  penetration.  Some  dealers  may  sell 
complementary products manufactured by other suppliers to complete their product offerings or to satisfy local demand 
for a particular specialty application or segment.

A  strong  dealer  network  with  wide  geographic  coverage  is  a  critical  element  in  the  success  of  Agriculture  and 
Construction.  We  work  to  enhance  our  dealer  network  through  the  expansion  of  our  product  lines  and  customer 
services, including enhanced financial services offerings, and an increased focus on dealer support. To assist dealers in 
building  rewarding  relationships  with  their  customers,  focused  customer  satisfaction  programs  have  been  introduced 
and  they  are  expected  to  incorporate  customer  input  into  the  relevant  product  development  and  service  delivery 
processes.

As the equipment rental business becomes a more significant factor in both the agricultural and construction equipment 
markets,  Agriculture  and  Construction  are  facilitating  sales  of  equipment  to  the  local,  regional  and  national  rental 
companies  through  their  dealers  as  well  as  by  encouraging  dealers  to  develop  their  own  rental  activities.  A  strong 
dealer service network is required to maintain the rental equipment, and to help ensure that the equipment remains at 
peak  performance  levels  both  during  its  life  as  rental  equipment  and  afterward  when  resold  into  the  used  equipment 
market.  Agriculture  and  Construction  have  launched  several  programs  to  support  their  dealer  service  and  rental 
operations, including training, improved dealer standards, financing, and advertising. As the rental market is a capital-
intensive  sector  and  sensitive  to  cyclical  variations,  we  expand  such  activities  gradually,  with  special  attention  to 
managing the resale of rental units into the used equipment market by our dealers, who can utilize this opportunity to 
improve their customer base and generate additional parts and service business. 

We  believe  that  it  is  generally  more  cost-effective  to  distribute  our  agricultural  and  construction  equipment  products 
through  independent  dealers,  although  as  of  December  31,  2022,  we  operated  two  Agriculture  and  Construction 
dealerships  in  North America  and  six  company-owned Agriculture  and  Construction  dealerships  in  Europe.  We  also 
operate  with  a  network  of  owned  dealers  for  Case  IH  and  the  Construction  segment  in  South Africa.  We  promote  a 
selective  dealer  development  program,  in  territories  with  growth  potential  but  underdeveloped  representation  by  our 
agricultural  and  construction  equipment  brands,  the  program  typically  involves  a  transfer  of  ownership  to  a  qualified 
operator through a buy-out or private investment after a few years. 

Precision Agriculture technology is offered factory fit with our new equipment as well as offered as parts and service for 
retrofit solutions through our dealer network. The Raven brand is leveraging and expanding their sales through the CNH 
Industrial  dealer  network  in  all  the  regions  but  is  also  distributing  through  independent  dealers  and  directly  to  other 
OEM as factory fit solutions or their parts and service offering.

PRICING AND PROMOTION 

The retail price of any piece of equipment is determined by the individual dealer or distributor and generally depends on 
market conditions, features, options and, potentially, regulatory requirements. Retail transaction prices may differ from 
the  manufacturer-suggested  list  prices,  as  a  result  of  different  factors  (markets'  demand,  customers'  specific 

Board Report   Business Overview     43

requirements,  local  market  conditions,  general  economic  conditions,  access  to  financing,  etc.).  We  sell  most  of  our 
products  and  parts  to  our  dealers  and  distributors  at  wholesale  prices  that  reflect  a  discount  from  the  manufacturer-
suggested list prices. In the ordinary course of business, we engage in promotional campaigns that may include price 
incentives or preferential financing terms when a product is sold by a dealer to a final customer.

We  regularly  advertise  our  products  to  the  community  of  farmers,  builders,  and  agricultural  and  construction 
contractors, as well as to distributors and dealers in each of our major markets. To reach our target audience, we use a 
combination of general media, specialized design and trade magazines, the Internet and direct mail. We also regularly 
participate  in  major  international  and  national  trade  shows  and  engage  in  co-operative  advertising  programs  with 
distributors and dealers. The promotion strategy for each brand varies according to the target customers for that brand.

PARTS AND SERVICES 

The quality and timely availability of parts and services are important competitive factors for each of our businesses, as 
they  are  significant  elements  in  overall  customer  satisfaction  and  important  considerations  in  a  customer’s  original 
equipment purchase decision. We supply parts, many of which are proprietary, to support items in the current product 
line  as  well  as  for  products  we  have  sold  in  the  past.  We  also  offer  personalized  aftersales  customer  assistance 
programs  that  provide  a  wide  range  of  modular  and  flexible  maintenance  and  repair  contracts,  as  well  as  warranty 
extension services, to meet a variety of customers’ needs and to support the equipment’s value over time. Many of our 
products  can  have  economically  productive  lives  of  up  to  20  years  when  properly  maintained,  and  each  unit  has  the 
potential to produce a long-term parts and services revenue stream for us and our dealers. The technology has allowed 
us  to  connect  machines  with  our  cloud-based  Control  Rooms  and  our  dealer  service  shops  get  results  of    analytics 
blended  with  the  professional  knowledge  of  our  products  experts.  We  are  increasing  the  number  of  connected  units 
supported proactively by Dealer Control Room that leverage service alarms, operators’ insights, predictive repairs and 
maintenance that enrich a suite of machine and farm data’s. 
As of December 31, 2022, we operated and administered 34 parts depots worldwide which support both Agriculture and 
Construction, either directly, through a joint venture, or through arrangements with warehouse service providers. This 
network  includes  10  parts  depots  in  North America,  7  in  Europe,  3  in  South America,  and  14  in  other  regions.  The 
network includes 33 parts depots that support Agriculture and 30 that support Construction. These depots supply parts 
to  dealers  and  distributors,  which  are  responsible  for  sales  to  retail  customers.  Our  parts  depots  and  parts  delivery 
systems provide customers with access to substantially all the parts required to support our products. 

JOINT VENTURES 

As  part  of  a  strategy  to  enter  and  expand  in  new  markets,  we  are  also  involved  in  several  commercial  and/or 
manufacturing joint ventures. At December 31, 2022, they included the following: 

▪ in  Japan,  we  own  50.0%  of  New  Holland  HFT  Japan  Inc.  (“HFT”),  which  distributes  our  products  in  Japan.  HFT 

imports and sells the full range of New Holland agricultural equipment; 

▪ in Pakistan, we own 43.2% of Al Ghazi Tractors Ltd., which manufactures and distributes New Holland tractors; 

▪ in Turkey, we own 37.5% of TürkTraktör ve Ziraat Makineleri A.S., which manufactures and distributes various models 

of both New Holland and Case IH tractors;  

▪ in Mexico, we own 50.0% of CNH de Mexico S.A. de C.V., which manufactures New Holland agricultural equipment 

and distributes our agricultural equipment through one or more of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. 

FINANCIAL SERVICES  

Financial Services offers a range of financial products and services to dealers and customers in the various regions in 
which  it  operates.  Retail  financing  products  primarily  include  retail  notes,  finance  leases  and  operating  leases  to  end 
use customers and revolving charge account financing to purchase parts, service, rentals, implements and attachments 
from CNH Industrial brand dealers. Wholesale financing consists primarily of dealer floorplan financing as well as the 
management  and  purchase  of  trade  receivables  from  CNH  Industrial  companies.  Dealer  floorplan  financing  gives 
dealers the ability to maintain a representative inventory of products. In addition, Financial Services provides financing 
to  dealers  for  used  equipment  and  machines  taken  in  trade,  equipment  utilized  in  dealer-owned  rental  yards,  parts 
inventory, working capital and other financing needs. As a captive finance business, Financial Services is reliant on and 
supports the operations of Agriculture, Construction, their dealers, and customers. 

Financial Services supports the growth of Industrial Activities by developing and structuring financial products with the 
objective of supporting equipment and parts sales as well as customer loyalty. Financial Services’ strategy is to grow a 
core financing business to support the sale of our equipment and parts while at the same time maintaining its portfolio 
credit  quality,  service  levels,  operational  effectiveness  and  customer  satisfaction.  Financial  Services  also  offers 
products to finance third party equipment and machines sold through our dealer network or within our core businesses. 
Financed third party equipment include used equipment taken in trade by our dealers or equipment used in conjunction 
with or attached to our products. 

In  North  America,  retail  customer  and  dealer  financing  activities,  which  support  the  sales  of  Agriculture  and 
Construction, are managed through our wholly-owned financial services companies. 

Board Report   Business Overview     44

In  Europe,  the  Middle  East  and  Africa,  CNH  Industrial  Capital  Europe  S.a.S.,  which  is  24.95%  owned  by  CNH 
Industrial  N.V.  and  accounted  for  under  the  equity  method,  provides  retail  financing  to  customers  of Agriculture  and 
Construction.  Additionally,  there  are  vendor  programs  with  banking  partners  that  provide  customer  financing  to  our 
industrial segments in certain countries. In Europe, IC Financial Services S.A., a French specialized credit institution, 
wholly-owned  by  Iveco  Group,  manages  CNH  Industrial  dealer  financing  through  a  dedicated  securitization.  CNH 
Industrial Capital Solutions S.p.A. retains the securitization program's junior notes, and therefore retains substantially all 
the risks and the benefits of the underlying wholesale receivables.

For  South  America,  retail  customer  and  dealer  financing  activities  are  managed  through  our  wholly-owned  financial 
services  company,  which  support  the  sales  of  Agriculture  and  Construction.  For  retail  customer  financing  in  Brazil, 
Banco  CNH  Industrial  Capital  S.A.  serves  as  a  lender  for  funding  provided  by  BNDES,  a  federally-owned  financial 
institution linked to the Brazilian Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade. In Argentina, vendor programs 
with  banking  partners  are  also  utilized.  CNH  Industrial  Financial  Services  serves  as  a  lender  for  Iveco  Group  and 
services the sales of Iveco Group. 

In Asia Pacific, CNH Industrial Financial Services supports the sales of Agriculture and Construction by providing retail 
customer and dealer financing activities in Australia, New Zealand and India, managed through wholly-owned financial 
services  companies.  In  China, Agriculture  dealer  financing  activities  are  provided  by  and  managed  through  a  wholly-
owned financial services company. CNH Industrial Financial Services serves as a lender for Iveco Group and services 
the sale of Iveco Group in Australia and New Zealand. 

Customer Financing

Financial Services has certain retail underwriting and portfolio management policies and procedures that are specific to 
Agriculture  or  Construction.  This  distinction  allows  Financial  Services  to  reduce  risk  by  deploying  industry-specific 
expertise  in  each  of  these  businesses.  We  provide  retail  financial  products  primarily  through  our  dealers,  who  are 
trained in the use of the various financial products. Dedicated credit analysis teams perform retail credit underwriting. 
The  terms  for  financing  equipment  retail  sales  typically  provide  for  retention  of  a  security  interest  in  the  equipment 
financed. 

Financial Services’ guidelines for minimum down payments for equipment generally range from 5% to 30% of the actual 
sales  price,  depending  on  equipment  types,  repayment  terms,  and  customer  credit  quality.  Finance  charges  are 
sometimes waived for specified periods or reduced on certain equipment sold or leased in advance of the season of 
use or in connection with other sales promotions. For periods during which finance charges are waived or reduced on 
the retail notes or leases, Financial Services generally receives compensation from the applicable Industrial Activities 
segment  based  on  Financial  Services’  estimated  costs  and  a  targeted  return  on  equity.  The  cost  is  recognized  as  a 
reduction in net revenues for the applicable Industrial Activities segment.

Dealer Financing

Financial Services provides dealer floorplan financing, and to a lesser extent, the financing of dealer operations. Under 
the standard terms of the wholesale receivable agreements, these receivables typically have a fixed period of “interest-
free”  financing  to  dealers.  During  the  “interest-free”  period,  the  applicable  Industrial Activities  segment  compensates 
Financial Services based on Financial Services’ estimated costs and a targeted return on equity. The cost is recognized 
as a reduction in net revenues for the applicable Industrial Activities segment. After the expiration of any “interest-free” 
period, interest is charged to dealers on outstanding balances until Financial Services receives payment in full.  

A wholesale underwriting group reviews dealer financial information and payment performance to establish credit lines 
for  each  dealer.  In  setting  these  credit  lines,  Financial  Services  seeks  to  meet  the  reasonable  requirements  of  each 
dealer while managing its exposure to any one dealer. All risk is underwritten and supported by Financial Services. The 
credit lines are secured by the equipment financed. Dealer credit agreements generally include a requirement to repay 
individual  receivables  at  the  time  of  the  retail  sale  of  the  related  unit.  Financial  Services  leverages  employees, 
third-party  contractors,  and  digital  technologies  like  “geo-fencing”  to  conduct  periodic  stock  audits  at  individual 
dealerships to confirm that the financed equipment is maintained in inventory. These audits are unannounced, and their 
frequency varies by dealer and depends on the dealer’s financial strength, payment history, and prior performance. 

Factoring 

Financial Services also provides intragroup factoring of trade and other receivables. This activity involves the purchase, 
without recourse, of receivables of CNH Industrial companies, originating from the Industrial Activities segments, and 
due from third or related parties.

Sources of Funding 

The  long-term  profitability  of  Financial  Services’  activities  largely  depends  on  the  cyclical  nature  of  the  industries  in 
which  we  operate,  interest  rate  volatility,  and  the  ability  to  access  funding  on  competitive  terms.  Financial  Services 
funds  its  operations  and  lending  activity  through  a  combination  of  term  receivable  securitizations,  committed  secured 
and  unsecured  facilities,  uncommitted  lines  of  credit,  unsecured  bonds,  unsecured  commercial  paper,  affiliated 

Board Report   Business Overview     45

financing,  and  retained  earnings.  Financial  Services’  current  funding  strategy  is  to  maintain  sufficient  liquidity  and 
flexible access to a wide variety of financial instruments and funding options. 

Financial  Services  has  periodically  accessed  the  asset-backed  securities  (“ABS”)  markets  in  the  United  States, 
Canada,  and Australia,  as  part  of  its  retail  note  and  wholesale  financing  programs  when  those  markets  offer  funding 
opportunities  on  competitive  terms.  Financial  Services  has  also  accessed  the  unsecured  bond  market  in  the  United 
States,  Canada,  Brazil,  Argentina  and  Australia  and  commercial  paper  markets  in  the  United  States  to  diversify  its 
funding  sources.  Financial  Services’  ability  to  access  these  markets  will  depend,  in  part,  upon  general  economic 
conditions  and  Financial  Services’  financial  condition  and  portfolio  performance.  These  factors  can  be  negatively 
affected by cyclical swings in the industries in which we operate. 

Competition 

The  financial  services  industry  is  highly  competitive.  Financial  Services  competes  primarily  with  banks,  equipment 
finance  and  leasing  companies  and  other  financial  institutions.  Typically,  this  competition  is  based  upon  the  financial 
products and services offered, customer service, financial terms, and interest rates charged. Financial Services’ ability 
to compete successfully depends upon, among other things, the availability and competitiveness of funding resources, 
the development of competitive financial products and services, and licensing or other governmental regulations. 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 

As a global company with a diverse business portfolio, CNH Industrial in the ordinary course of business is exposed to 
numerous  legal  risks,  including,  without  limitation,  dealer  and  supplier  litigation,  intellectual  property  right  disputes, 
product warranty and defective product claims, product performance, asbestos, personal injury, emissions and/or fuel 
economy  regulatory  and  contractual  issues,  competition  law  and  other  investigations  and  environmental  claims.  The 
most  significant  of  these  matters  are  described  in  Note  27  “Commitments  and  contingencies”  to  the  Consolidated 
Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The outcome of any current or future proceedings, claims, or investigations cannot be predicted with certainty. Adverse 
decisions in one or more of these proceedings, claims or investigations could require CNH Industrial to pay substantial 
damages  or  fines  or  undertake  service  actions,  recall  campaigns  or  other  costly  actions.  It  is  therefore  possible  that 
legal  judgments  could  give  rise  to  expenses  that  are  not  covered,  or  not  fully  covered,  by  insurers’  compensation 
payments  and  could  affect  CNH  Industrial’s  financial  position  and  results.  When  it  is  probable  that  an  outflow  of 
resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle obligations and this amount can be reliably estimated, 
CNH Industrial recognizes specific provisions for this purpose.

Although the ultimate outcome of legal matters pending against CNH Industrial and its subsidiaries cannot be predicted, 
management  believes  the  reasonable  possible  range  of  losses  for  these  unresolved  legal  matters  in  addition  to  the 
amounts accrued would not have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements. 

Follow-up  on  Damages  Claims:  in  2011  Iveco  S.p.A.  ("Iveco"),  which,  following  the  Demerger,  is  now  part  of  Iveco 
Group N.V., and its competitors in the European Union were subject to an investigation by the European Commission 
(the  “Commission”)  into  certain  business  practices  in  the  European  Union  (in  the  period  1997-2011)  in  relation  to 
Medium  &  Heavy  trucks.  On  July  19,  2016,  the  Commission  announced  a  settlement  with  Iveco  ("the  Decision"). 
Following  the  Decision,  the  Company,  Iveco  and  Iveco  Magirus  AG  ("IMAG")  have  been  named  as  defendants  in 
proceedings  across  Europe.  The  consummation  of  the  Demerger  will  not  allow  CNH  Industrial  to  be  excluded  from 
current and future follow on proceedings originating from the Decision because under EU competition law a company 
cannot  use  corporate  reorganizations  to  avoid  liability  for  private  damage  claims.  In  the  event  one  or  more  of  these 
judicial  proceedings  would  result  in  a  decision  against  CNH  Industrial  ordering  it  to  compensate  such  claimants  as  a 
result  of  the  conduct  that  was  the  subject  matter  of  the  Decision,  and  Iveco  and  IMAG  do  not  comply  with  such 
decisions, as a result of various intercompany arrangements, then CNH Industrial will ultimately have recourse against 
Iveco and IMAG for the reimbursement of the damages effectively paid to such claimants. The extent and outcome of 
these  claims  cannot  be  predicted  at  this  time.  The  Company  believes  that  the  risk  of  either  Iveco  or  IMAG  or  Iveco 
Group defaulting on potential payment obligations arising from such follow-up on damage claims is remote.

FPT Emissions Investigation: on July 22, 2020, a number of FPT Industrial S.p.A.'s offices in Europe were visited by 
investigators in the context of a request for assistance by the public prosecutors of Frankfurt am Main, Germany and 
Turin,  Italy  in  relation  to  alleged  noncompliance  of  two  engine  models  produced  by  FPT  Industrial  S.p.A.,  which  is  a 
wholly-controlled subsidiary Iveco Group N.V., installed in certain Ducato (a vehicle distributed by Stellantis N.V.) and 
Iveco Daily vehicles. In certain instances CNH Industrial and other third parties have also received various requests for 
compensation  by  German  and  Austrian  customers  on  various  contractual  and  tort  grounds,  including  requests  for 
damages  resulting  from  the  termination  of  the  purchase  contracts,  or  in  the  form  of  requests  for  an  alleged  lower 
residual  value  of  their  vehicles  as  a  consequence  of  the  alleged  non-compliance  with  other  approval  regulations 
regarding emissions. In certain instances, other customers have brought judicial claims on the same legal and factual 
bases.  While  the  Company  had  no  role  in  the  design  and  sale  of  such  engine  models  and  vehicles,  the  Company 
cannot predict at this time the extent and outcome of these requests and directly or indirectly related legal proceedings, 
including customer claims or potential class actions alleging emissions non-compliance. The Company believes that the 

Board Report   Business Overview     46

risk  of  either  FPT  Industrial  or  Iveco  Group  N.V.  defaulting  on  potential  payment  obligations  arising  from  such 
proceedings is remote.

INSURANCE 

We maintain insurance with third party insurers to cover various risks arising from our business activities including, but 
not limited to, risk of loss or damage to our assets or facilities, business interruption losses, general liability, automobile 
liability, product liability and directors' and officers' liability insurance. We believe that we maintain insurance coverage 
that  is  customary  in  our  industry.  Until  2022,  we  used  a  broker  that  is  a  subsidiary  of  Stellantis  N.V.  ("Stellantis", 
formerly Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. which, effective January 16, 2021, merged with Peugeot S.A. by means of a 
cross-border  legal  merger)  to  place  a  portion  of  our  insurance  coverage.  Starting  with  the  placement  of  the  2023 
insurance coverage, we have moved to a third-party broker. 

PLANTS AND MANUFACTURING PROCESSES 

As  of  December  31,  2022,  we  owned  43  manufacturing  facilities.  We  also  own  other  significant  properties  including 
spare  parts  depots,  research  laboratories,  test  tracks,  warehouses,  and  office  buildings.  We  consider  each  of  our 
facilities to be in good condition and adequate for its present use. We believe that we have sufficient capacity to meet 
our current and anticipated manufacturing requirements.

We  make  capital  expenditures  in  the  regions  in  which  we  operate  principally  related  to  initiatives  to  introduce  new 
products, enhance manufacturing efficiency and increase capacity, and for maintenance and engineering. In 2022, our 
total  capital  expenditures  in  long-lived  assets,  excluding  equipment  on  operating  leases,  were  $635  million  of  which 
41%  was  spent  in  EMEA,  43%  in  North  America,  11%  in  South  America  and  5%  in  Asia  Pacific.  These  capital 
expenditures were funded through a combination of cash generated from operating activities and borrowings. In 2021, 
our total capital expenditures were $521 million.

CNH Industrial Business System

In  striving  to  consolidate  and  maintain  high  standards  of  manufacturing  excellence,  CNH  Industrial  adopted  a  new 
approach to continuous improvement through the CNH Industrial Business System (CBS).

CNH Industrial Business System is a proven model that adopts a simple and focused approach that is centered around 
our customers and key results to unlock transformative value creation. It drives performance improvement through the 
elimination of waste from every business process to drive greater accountability, agility, efficiency and safety for all.

CNH  Industrial’s  Focused  Five  priorities  (Customer,  Safety,  Quality,  Delivery,  Profit)  are  the  Business  System’s  key 
performance indicators to measure results, ensuring the Company achieves the core metrics that matter most. These 
objectives require a strong commitment from plant management and all relevant departments, reinforced by continuous 
interaction across all organizational levels.

Benefits  of  CBS  implementation  include  greater  competitiveness,  the  development  of  new  and  improved  technology 
and  innovation,  increased  flexibility,  increased  communication  between  management  and  production  personnel, 
enhanced quality of work, and increased workforce empowerment.

The  structure  of  our  CNH  Industrial  Business  System  is  focused  on  two  main  approaches:  Strategy  Deployment  –  a 
rigorous senior management process to drive transformational change in our business; and Daily Management System 
– a simple, visual Daily Management process that brings CNH Industrial’s Cultural Beliefs to life and ensures we are 
giving our people the tools, resources and support needed to deliver on what our customers need.

Both  approaches  drive  performance  improvement  through  the  use  of  Lean Toolsets,  Kaizen  events,  and  Root  Cause 
Problem Solving at the point of impact that enable greater accountability, agility, efficiency and safety. 

The  Lean  Toolsets  drive  process  improvement  by  building  capability  across  the  entire  organization.  These  toolsets 
continuously  work  to  pursue  the  elimination  of  waste  from  every  business  process  by  understanding  customer  value 
with the goal of providing best-in-class quality, delivery, and service to our customers at the lowest possible cost.

Kaizens  are  focused  3–5  day  process  improvement  events  during  which  the  majority  of  the  process  change  occurs. 
They are fast, hands-on events and with a ‘do it now’ mentality to create a better culture. The goal is to solve problems 
“for  the  last  time”  and  sustain  the  gains  through  on-going  measurement  utilizing  the  Daily  Management  System  and 
leadership follow-up. 

The  widespread  use  of  CBS  at  CNH  Industrial  plants  and  functions  allows  the  Company  to  share  a  common  culture 
based  on  efficient  processes  and  on  a  language  universally  recognized  across  all  parts  of  the  organization  and 
countries in which CNH Industrial operates.

At CNH Industrial, the Company implemented Phase 1 of the Daily Management System at major plants and depots 
and trained over 100 people in Lean Toolsets and Root Cause Problem Solving. In 2022, the Company executed over 
250  Kaizen  events  that  included  a  significant  number  of  projects  and  quick  improvements  which  involved  more  than 
1,000 employees that have never used this new approach.

Environmental impacts of manufacturing processes 

The  Group’s  manufacturing  facilities  are  subject  to  a  variety  of  laws  designed  to  protect  the  environment,  particularly 
with  respect  to  solid  and  liquid  wastes,  air  emissions,  energy  usage  and  water  consumption.  CNH  Industrial  is 
committed  to  continuously  improving  the  environmental  performance  of  its  manufacturing  processes,  beyond  the 
requirements  of  legislation,  adopting  the  best  technologies  available  and  acting  responsibly  to  preserve  natural 
resources and to fight climate change. These are important priorities due to the nature and extent of their environmental 
and  economic  impact,  and  highlighted  by  their  political,  technological,  and  economic  implications,  in  terms  of  both 
sustainable  procurement  and  impact  mitigation.  Environmental  protection  at  CNH  Industrial  is  focused  on  prevention, 
conservation,  information,  and  people  engagement,  thus  facilitating  long-term  management.  CNH  Industrial  has 
adopted  an  Environmental  Policy  that  describes  the  short,  medium,  and  long-term  commitments  toward  responsible 
management  of  environmental  aspects,  such  as:  energy,  natural  resources,  raw  materials,  hazardous  substances, 
polluting emissions, waste, natural habitats, and biodiversity. 

These aspects are included in CNH Industrial's environmental management system and energy management system. 
This approach enables the effective management of all environmental aspects deriving from manufacturing processes, 
the adequate evaluation of outcomes and the achievement of challenging targets set within the Sustainability Plan.
The materiality analysis identified air emissions (covered by the material topic CO2 and Other Air Emissions), the use of 
renewable  energy,  the  consumption  of  water,  and  the  management  of  waste  as  the  most  significant  environmental 

Board Report   Business Overview     49

aspects for both the Company and its stakeholders. 
The  highest  responsibility  for  initiatives  focusing  on  energy  efficiency,  management  of  CO2  emissions  and 
environmental protection lies with the SLT.

Receipt of a certification for environmental or energy management confirms that an organization has a system capable 
of keeping the impacts of its operations under control, and that it systematically seeks to improve this system in a way 
that is coherent, effective and, above all, sustainable. The participation in the ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certification 
process is on a voluntary basis. As of December 31, 2022, 30 plants were ISO 14001 certified, while ISO 50001 energy 
management systems were implemented in 30 plants, representing about 99% of energy consumption.

Consolidated  monitoring  and  reporting  systems  are  used  to  keep  track  of  environmental  performance,  measure  the 
effectiveness  of  actions  taken  to  achieve  targets,  and  plan  new  initiatives  for  continuous  improvement,  through  the 
management  of  appropriate  Key  Performance  Indicators  (KPIs).  These  indicators  can  be  analyzed  at  different 
aggregate  levels  (plant,  segment,  geographic  region,  or  Group),  which  allows  for  the  simultaneous  and  parallel 
engagement of different corporate functions at various levels to meet targets. 

In 2022, the main environmental KPIs maintained the positive trend recorded in recent years, in line with the targets set 
in the Sustainability Plan, reconfirming CNH Industrial’s significant commitment to environmental protection.

environmental  management.  In 2022,  about  $4.2  million  was  invested  in  improving  energy  performance,  leading  to  a 
reduction in energy consumption of approximately 54 TJ and a corresponding reduction in CO2 emissions of over 4,300 
tons.

SUPPLIERS 

CNH Industrial adopts a responsible approach to the management of its supply chain, establishing relationships that go 
beyond commercial transactions, fostering long-lasting and mutually satisfying collaborations with qualified partners that 
share the Group’s principles. CNH Industrial has adopted the Supplier Code of Conduct that provides the framework for 
responsible supply chain management. In addition to compliance with local legislation, the Supplier Code of Conduct 
calls  for  observance  of  human  rights  and  working  conditions,  respect  for  the  environment,  and  business  ethics.  All 
suppliers carrying on business with CNH Industrial are deemed to agree and accept the contents of the Supplier Code 
of  Conduct  and  such  agreement  and  acceptance  is  evidenced  by  the  supplier  continuing  to  do  business  with  CNH 
Industrial.

CNH  Industrial’s  standards  of  environmental  and  social  responsibility  have  been  fully  integrated  into  its  supply  chain 
management.  Supplier  selection  is  an  operational  phase  of  the  procurement  process  and  is  regulated  by  specific 
procedures. Supplier selection is based not only on cost, product innovation, production flexibility, and the quality and 
competitiveness  of  their  products  and  services,  but  also  on  their  compliance  with  CNH  Industrial’s  social,  ethical  and 
environmental principles. The assessment process is built on objective criteria and tools aimed at ensuring fairness and 
equal opportunities for all parties involved.

Furthermore,  to  assess  whether  suppliers  meet  the  sustainability  standards  set  by  CNH  Industrial  and,  where 
necessary,  take  steps  towards  improvement  and  realignment,  a  monitoring  process  has  been  designed  and 
implemented. During the first step of the process, suppliers are requested to self-assess their policies and practices on 
sustainability through a questionnaire, mainly focused on the following issues: human rights, environment, compliance 
and ethics, diversity, and health and safety. The questionnaires are analyzed and used to perform a risk assessment, 
which  allows  the  Company  to  identify  critical  suppliers  whose  compliance  with  sustainability  criteria  requires 
assessment,  through  follow-up,  on-site  audits. The  audits  are  performed  at  suppliers’  plants  by  either  CNH  Industrial 
Supplier  Quality  Engineers  (SQEs)  or  independent  external  auditors.  In  2022,  1,347  suppliers  completed  the 
questionnaire  and  65  audits  were  performed  remotely.  The  analysis  of  the  results  highlighted  the  widespread 
implementation  of  sustainability  initiatives,  with  a  significant  number  of  suppliers  adopting  their  own  social  and 
environmental systems, setting specific targets and drafting periodic reports. In some cases, corrective action plans for 
areas  in  need  of  improvement  were  formulated  in  collaboration  with  suppliers;  they  are  monitored  through  follow-up 
discussions  and  meetings  between  supplier  and  auditor.  The  monitoring  process  is  considered  also  as  a  way  to 
promote continuous improvement along the supply chain. 

Another  important  supplier  engagement  activity  carried  out  in  2022,  the  CDP  Supply  Chain  initiative,  concerns  the 
mitigation of environmental impacts. In keeping with the previous year, 137 suppliers were selected to fill out the CDP 
questionnaire,  to  get  a  clear  picture  of  their  strategies  to  tackle  climate  change  and  of  their  current,  or  still  to  be 
implemented, initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions.
Moreover, CNH Industrial has implemented a compliance program and policy intended to promote responsible sourcing 
of  tin,  tantalum,  tungsten,  and  gold  (“3TG”)  from  the  Democratic  Republic  of  Congo  (DRC)  and  surrounding  region 
(conflict minerals), where revenues from the extraction of natural resources have historically funded armed conflict and 
human rights abuses. CNH Industrial’s Conflict Minerals Policy was adopted in 2013 and is available on the Company 
website.  The  Policy  is  intended  to  promote  sourcing  3TG  from  responsible  sources  in  the  Democratic  Republic  of 
Congo and surrounding region. The Company annually performs its supply chain due diligence consistent with OECD 
guidelines.  CNH  Industrial  is  committed  to  making  reasonable  efforts  to  establish,  and  to  require  each  supplier  to 
disclose, whether 3TG are used or contained in products purchased by the Company and the source of that 3TG.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

In  a  continuously  and  rapidly  changing  competitive  environment,  CNH  Industrial’s  research  activities  are  a  vital 
component  in  our  strategic  development.  Each  year  the  the  Group  makes  substantial  investments  in  research  and 
development. Such continuous investment and development activities are critically important to the continuing success 
of the Group.

Research and development times are reduced, where possible, to accelerate time-to-market, while taking advantage of 
specialization  and  experience  in  different  markets.  Technical  and  operational  synergies  and  rapid  technical 
communication form the basis of our research and development process. CNH Industrial’s innovation process consists 
of  a  series  of  clear-cut  steps,  from  the  evaluation  of  innovative  concepts  up  to  the  final  step  before  production.  CNH 
Industrial believes innovation is essential to offering customers highly technological, eco-friendly, safe, and ergonomic 
products with a low Total Cost of Ownership (“TCO”). 
In  this  spirit,  research  activities  focus  primarily  on  the  development  of  products  that  can:  reduce  polluting  and  CO2 
emissions;  use  biofuels;  adopt  electric  and  hydrogen  traction  systems;  incorporate  advanced  precision  farming 
functionality and autonomous driving. For this reason, the Company’s research and development activities focus mainly 
on: efficient diesel engines, decarbonization, digitalization, and automation.

In  2022,  our  expenditure  on  research  and  development  (including  capitalized  development  costs  and  costs  charged 
directly to operations during the year) totaled $866 million(*), or 4% of net revenues from Industrial Activities.
The  following  table  shows  our  total  research  and  development  expenditures,  including  capitalized  development  costs 
and  costs  charged  directly  to  operations  during  the  year,  by  segment  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2022  and 
2021:

We own a significant number of patents, trade secrets, and trademarks related to our products and services, and that 
number is expected to grow as our research and development activities continue. We file patent applications in Europe, 
the  United  States  and  in  other  jurisdictions  around  the  world  to  protect  technology  and  improvements  considered 
important  to  our  businesses.  Certain  trademarks  contribute  to  our  identity  and  the  recognition  of  our  products  and 
services are an integral part of our business, and their loss could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

HUMAN RESOURCES

EMPLOYEES

The  ability  to  attract,  retain,  and  further  develop  qualified  employees  is  crucial  to  the  success  of  CNH  Industrial’s 
businesses and its ability to create value over the long-term. CNH Industrial’s business is, by its nature, labor intensive 
and this is reflected in the high number of Group hourly employees.

(**) 2021 Employees post Spin-off.

As of December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial had 40,070 employees, an increase of 2,307 from the 37,763 employees at 
year-end 2021 post spin-off (2021 closure was 71,895 employees out of which 37,763 for Continuing Operations and 
34,134  for  Discontinued  Operations).  The  change  was  mainly  attributable  to  the  balance  between  new  hires 
(approximately 8,800) and departures (approximately 5,800) during the year. A further decrease of approximately 650 
employees  was  due  to  changes  in  the  scope  of  the  operations,  mainly  related  to  the  divestiture  of  two  Raven's 
divisions and STEYR Center Nord. Excluding the changes in the scope of operations, the increase compared to year-
end 2021 post spin-off is mainly attributable to the hiring of fixed-term and open-term workers in manufacturing due to 
the production volumes increase driven by strong demand in the market, primarily in the Agriculture segment in North 
America,  Europe  and  South  America,  and  in  the  Construction  segment  in  North  America  and  in  South  America. 
Significant increase also in Precision Technology and research and development personnel, to strengthen the pool of 
skills  and  competencies  in  view  of  technology  transitions,  particularly  electrification,  autonomous  driving,  alternative 
propulsion  solutions,  digitalization,  and  cloud  web-based  software  technologies.  New  partnerships  with  innovation-
oriented universities enabled the hiring of new graduates with permanent contracts. 

As stated in CNH Industrial's Code of Conduct, occupational health and safety is an employee's fundamental right and 
a key part of Group’s sustainability model and included in the Materiality Matrix as one of the most material topics for 
CNH  Industrial  and  its  stakeholders.  Safety  management  engages  all  employees  in  creating  a  culture  of  accident 
prevention  and  risk  awareness,  sharing  common  occupational  health  and  safety  ethical  principles  to  achieve 
improvement targets. One of the initiatives developed by CNH Industrial is an effective health and safety management 
system that conforms to ISO 45001 international standard. As demonstration of the Group's commitment in this area, 
58  plants  are  ISO  45001  certified.  In  2021,  approximately  $131.3  million  was  spent  on  improving  health  and  safety 
protection. The investments in health and safety allowed, as an additional benefit, savings on the insurance premiums 
paid to the Italian National Institute for Insurance against Accidents at Work (INAIL) for a total of approximately $1.8 
million in 2021. To achieve the challenging targets that the Group has set, all employees are involved in informational 
activities  and  in  classrooms  and  hands-on  training  consistent  with  their  roles  and  responsibilities.  In  2022,  CNH 
Industrial  delivered  281,891  hours  of  occupational  health  and  safety  training  (of  which  173,531  on  the  job). 
Approximately  23,800  employees  were  engaged  in  training  on  the  job  activities  on  occupational  health  and  safety, 
86.1% of whom were hourly. Owing to the Group’s many initiatives, the overall employee injury frequency rate in 2021 
was 1.725 injuries per 1,000,000 hours worked, a 11.3% decrease compared to the previous year. The target set for 
2024 is to reduce by 50% the employee injury frequency rate compared to 2014 data.

The  Group  realizes  that  the  nature  of  today’s  socio-economic  context  calls  for  leaders  with  the  ability  to  evolve  and 
develop. A solid people management process is the key to success, as it includes employees in the formulation of the 

Board Report Human Resources       53

Group’s  business  goals,  takes  advantage  of  employee  talent  and  fuels  workforce  motivation.  CNH  Industrial  is 
committed  to  supporting  its  employees  with  development  opportunities  and  recognizing  and  rewarding  their 
achievements and contribution to business results. In 2022, CNH Industrial delivered a total of 899,173 training hours 
to 40,511 individuals, of whom 82% were men and 18% were women. We achieved the goal with 100% of employees 
having engaged in training activities in 2022. 

As evidenced by the materiality analysis, both employee engagement in sustainability matters and digital workplaces 
are  key  contributors  to  being  a  more  sustainable  Company. These  material  topics  affect,  both  directly  and  indirectly, 
how  employees  adapt  their  approach  to  the  changing  workplace  environment.  Employee  engagement,  leveraged  to 
increase  employee  awareness  of  sustainability  topics  (especially  in  terms  of  environmental  protection,  health  and 
proper nutrition, and food security and waste), plays an important role in reaching the Company’s goals, as reflected in 
the  targets  set  in  terms  of  training,  employee  volunteering,  and  wellbeing  initiatives  promoting  healthy  lifestyles. As 
regards digital workplaces, the Company promotes the use of new technologies to improve work quality and efficiency, 
employee work-life balance (remote work), and the exchange of information, in part to foster innovation. 

DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

CNH Industrial rejects all forms of discrimination that is based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, personal or 
social  status,  health,  physical  condition,  disability,  age,  nationality,  religious  or  personal  beliefs,  political  opinion  or 
against any other protected group.

The responsibility for diversity and inclusion ("D&I") lies primarily with the Senior Leadership Team ("SLT"), committed 
to  creating  a  truly  diverse  and  inclusive  workplace  where  everyone  benefits  from  equal  opportunities  based  on  their 
abilities  and  skills.  Offering  career  and  advancement  opportunities  free  from  discrimination  while  encouraging  and 
respecting  diversity  are  among  the  commitments  emphasized  in  CNH  Industrial’s  Human  Capital  Management 
Guidelines and Human Rights Policy, available on the Company’s website and Intranet portal.

The Human Resources (HR) head of each segment/function collaborates with Business Management to ensure that, in 
every  aspect  of  the  employment  relationship  -  be  it  recruitment,  training,  compensation,  promotion,  or  relocation  - 
employees are treated on the basis of their ability to meet the requirements of the job.

The Senior Leadership Team proved its full engagement and determination to champion the issue by signing the D&I 
Commitment Statements, rejecting any form of discrimination, and pledging to create an environment where everyone 
benefits from equal opportunities based on their abilities and skills.

CNH  Industrial’s  commitment  to  people  engagement  is  reflected  in  the  strategic  sustainability  targets  it  incorporated 
into the Strategic Business Plan in 2022: to have women holding 20% of leadership roles by year-end 2024. In 2022, 
individual  targets  related  to  the  material  topics  described  above  were  included  in  the  Performance  Management 
Process  for  several  managers  responsible  for  the  projects  indicated  in  the  Sustainability  Plan,  including  the  people 
engagement  targets. As  of  December  31,  2022,  50%  of  CNH  Industrial’s  executive  directors  are  women,  43%  of  its 
non-executive directors are women, and 17% of its senior leadership team are women. 

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING

Approximately  1,000  hourly  production  employees  in  the  United  States  were  covered  by  a  collective  bargaining 
agreement with the United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America with an expiration 
date of May 2, 2026. Additionally, approximately 750 U.S. production employees are covered by a collective bargaining  
agreement  with  International Association  of  Machinists  with  an  expiration  date  of April  28,  2024.  In  Canada,  a  small 
number of employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement between with the United Steelworkers Local 
Union No. 5917, that expires on April 15, 2023. In Europe, most employees are covered by collective labor agreements 
(“CLAs”)  stipulated  either  by  a  CNH  Industrial  subsidiary  or  by  the  employer  association  for  the  specific  industry  to 
which  the  CNH  Industrial  subsidiary  belongs.  Outside  North  America  and  Europe,  CNH  Industrial  enters  into 
employment contracts and agreements in those countries in which such relationships are mandatory or customary.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 
AND PROSPECTS

INTRODUCTION

The results presented in this Annual Report are prepared in accordance with EU-IFRS and use the U.S. dollar as the 
presentation currency. 

CNH Industrial is a leading equipment and services company engaged in the design, production, marketing, sale, and 
financing of agricultural and construction equipment.

Until December 31, 2021, CNH Industrial N.V. owned and controlled the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business” or the “On-
Highway  Business”),  which  are  classified  as  Discontinued  operations,  as  well  as  the  Agriculture  business,  the 
Construction business, and the related Financial Services business (collectively, the “Off-Highway Business”). Effective 
January 1, 2022, the Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. by way of a Demerger under Dutch 
law (the "Demerger") to Iveco Group N.V. (the "Iveco Group"), and the Iveco Group became a public listed company 
independent from CNH Industrial.

As the transaction took effect on January 1, 2022, the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 
31, 2022 relate to the remaining CNH Industrial business. Moreover, in accordance with IFRS 5 – Non-current Assets 
Held  for  Sale  and  Discontinued  Operations,  for  the  corresponding  information  of  earlier  periods,  the  Iveco  Group 
business is classified and presented as Discontinued Operations in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

We  generate  revenues  and  cash  flows  principally  from  the  sale  of  equipment  to  dealers  and  distributors.  Financial 
Services  provides  a  range  of  financial  products  focused  on  financing  the  sale  and  lease  of  equipment  to  our  dealers 
and their customers. 

Revenues of Industrial Activities are presented net of discounts, allowances, settlement discounts and rebates, as well 
as  costs  for  sales  incentive  programs,  determined  on  the  basis  of  historical  costs,  country  by  country,  and  charged 
against profit for the period in which the corresponding sales are recognized. Our sales incentive programs may include 
the  granting  by  Financial  Services  of  retail  financing  at  discounts  to  market  interest  rates. The  corresponding  cost  to 
Industrial Activities is recognized at the time of the initial sale and the revenues of Financial Services are recognized on 
a pro rata basis in order to match the cost of funding. 

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AFFECTING RESULTS

Our operating performance is highly correlated to sales volumes, which are influenced by several different factors that 
vary across our segments. 

For Agriculture,  the  key  factors  influencing  sales  are  the  level  of  net  farm  income,  which  is  influenced  by  commodity 
prices, and, to a lesser extent, general economic conditions, interest rates and the availability of financing and related 
subsidy  programs.  Variations  by  region  and  product  are  also  attributable  to  differences  in  typical  climate  and  farming 
calendars, as well as extraordinary weather conditions. 

For  Construction,  segmentation  varies  by  regional  market:  in  developed  markets,  demand  is  oriented  toward  more 
sophisticated  machines  that  increase  operator  productivity,  while  in  developing  markets,  demand  is  oriented  toward 
more utilitarian models with greater perceived durability. Sales levels for heavy construction equipment are particularly 
dependent on the expected level of major infrastructure construction and repair projects, which is a function of expected 
economic growth and government spending. For light construction equipment, the principal factor influencing demand is 
the level of residential and commercial construction, remodeling and renovation, which is influenced in turn by interest 
rates  and  availability  of  financing,  as  well  as,  in  the  residential  sector,  levels  of  disposable  income  and,  in  the 
commercial sector, the broader economic cycle. 

Demand for services and service-related products, including parts, is a function of the nature and extent of the use of 
the  related  agricultural  and  construction  equipment.  The  after-sales  market  is  historically  less  volatile  than  the 
wholegoods market and, therefore, helps reduce the impact on operating results of fluctuations in new sales. 

Our cost base principally comprises the cost of raw materials and personnel costs. 

Raw material costs are closely linked to commodity markets and largely outside of our control, although we are making 
a targeted effort to increase procurement and production efficiencies. Historically, we have been able to pass on to our 
customers most of the increase in the cost of raw materials through increases in product pricing. Nevertheless, even 
when we are able to do so, there is usually a time lag between an increase in materials cost and a realized increase in 
product  prices  and,  accordingly,  our  results  are  typically  adversely  affected  at  least  in  the  short-term  until  price 
increases are accepted in the market. 

Board Report     Operating and Financial Review and Prospects     55

Personnel  costs  change  over  time  and  are  impacted  by  the  terms  of  collective  bargaining  agreements,  inflation  and 
average  number  of  employees.  A  significant  proportion  of  our  employees  are  based  in  countries  where  labor  laws 
impose significant protection of employers’ rights and, accordingly, we have limited ability to downsize our personnel in 
response to a decrease in production during periods of market downturn. 

Our results are also affected by changes in foreign exchange rates from period to period, mainly due to the difference in 
geographic distribution between our manufacturing activities and our commercial activities, resulting in cash flows from 
exports denominated in currencies that differ from those associated with production costs. In addition, our Consolidated 
Financial  Statements  are  expressed  in  U.S.  dollars  and  are  therefore  subject  to  movements  in  exchange  rates  upon 
translation of the financial statements of subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

Finally, our results may be materially affected, directly or indirectly, by governmental policies, including monetary and 
fiscal policies and policies on international trade and investment.  

Global Business Conditions

Significant uncertainties, including rising inflation, geopolitical instability, and the war in the Ukraine, continue to create 
volatility in the global economy. These factors lead to inefficiencies in our manufacturing operations and impact costs. 
We continue to work to mitigate the impact of these issues in order to meet end-market demand. We will continue to 
monitor the situation as conditions remain fluid and evolve.

During the first quarter of 2022, CNH Industrial announced it was suspending non-domestic operations in Russia. The 
Company  has  since  been  supporting  its  operations  in  this  market  through  the  continuation  of  employee  salaries  and 
payment of other administrative expenses. As a result of the suspension, the Company evaluated the carrying value of 
assets  held  within  the  Company's  Russia  operations.  Upon  completion  of  the  evaluation,  during  the  quarter  ended 
March  31,  2022,  the  Company  recorded  charges  of  $71  million  related  to  asset  write  downs,  financial  receivable 
allowances  and  a  valuation  allowance  against  deferred  tax  assets.  The  Russia-Ukraine  conflict  and  the  ensuing 
sanctions  to  Russia  and  Belarus  and  Russian  counter-sanctions  have  created  additional  tensions  in  the  commodity 
markets. The Company has no critical supplier in the affected countries, but prices for certain commodities, including 
natural gas, have created and might create further volatility.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES (OR “NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES”)

CNH  Industrial  monitors  its  operations  through  the  use  of  several  non-GAAP  financial  measures.  CNH  Industrial’s 
management  believes  that  these  non-GAAP  financial  measures  provide  useful  and  relevant  information  regarding  its 
operating  results  and  enhance  the  readers'  ability  to  assess  CNH  Industrial's  financial  performance  and  financial 
position.  Management  uses  these  non-GAAP  measures  to  identify  operational  trends,  as  well  as  to  make  decisions 
regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions as they provide additional transparency 
with  respect  to  our  core  operations.  These  non-GAAP  financial  measures  have  no  standardized  meaning  under  EU-
IFRS or U.S. GAAP and are unlikely to be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies and 
are  not  intended  to  be  substitutes  for  measures  of  financial  performance  and  financial  position  as  prepared  in 
accordance with EU-IFRS or U.S. GAAP. 

As of December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial's non-GAAP financial measures are defined as follows:

▪ Adjusted  EBIT  of  Industrial  Activities  under  EU-IFRS:  is  defined  as  profit/(loss)  before:  taxes,  Financial  Services' 
results,  Industrial  Activities'  financial  expenses,  restructuring  costs,  and  certain  non-recurring  items.  Such  non-
recurring items are specifically disclosed items that management considers rare or discrete events that are infrequent 
in nature and not reflective of on-going operational activities.

▪ Adjusted EBIT of Industrial Activities under U.S. GAAP: is derived from financial information prepared in accordance 
with  U.S.  GAAP  and  is  defined  as  net  income  (loss)  before  income  taxes,  Financial  Services'  results,  Industrial 
Activities' interest expenses, net, foreign exchange gains/losses, finance and non-service component of pension and 
other post-employment benefit costs, restructuring expenses, and certain non-recurring items.

▪ Net Cash/(Debt) and Net Cash/(Debt) of Industrial Activities under EU-IFRS: Net Cash/(Debt) is defined as total debt 
plus  Derivative  liabilities,  net  of  Cash  and  cash  equivalents,  Current  securities,  Derivative  assets  and  other  current 
financial  assets  (primarily  current  securities,  short-term  deposits  and  investments  towards  high-credit  rating 
counterparties).  We  provide  the  reconciliation  of  Net  Cash  (Debt)  to  Total  (Debt),  which  is  the  most  directly 
comparable  GAAP  financial  measure  included  in  our  consolidated  statement  of  financial  position.  Due  to  different 
sources  of  cash  flows  used  for  the  repayment  of  the  debt  between  Industrial Activities  and  Financial  Services  (by 
cash  from  operations  for  Industrial  Activities  and  by  collection  of  financing  receivables  for  Financial  Services), 
management  separately  evaluates  the  cash  flow  performance  of  Industrial  Activities  using  Net  Cash  (Debt)  of 
Industrial Activities.

▪ Net Cash/(Debt) and Net Cash/(Debt) of Industrial Activities under U.S. GAAP: are derived from financial information 
prepared  in  accordance  with  U.S.  GAAP.  Net  Cash  (Debt)  under  U.S.  GAAP  is  defined  as  total  debt  less 
intersegment  notes  receivable,  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  restricted  cash,  other  current  financial  assets (primarily 

Board Report     Operating and Financial Review and Prospects     56

current  securities,  short-term  deposits  and  investments  towards  high-credit  rating  counterparties)  and  derivative 
hedging debt.

▪ Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities (or Industrial Free Cash Flow) under EU-IFRS: refers to Industrial Activities, 
only, and is computed as consolidated cash flow from operating activities less: cash flow from operating activities of 
Financial Services; investments of Industrial Activities in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; as well 
as other changes and intersegment eliminations.

▪ Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities (or Industrial Free Cash Flow) under U.S. GAAP: refers to Industrial Activities, 
only, and is computed as consolidated cash flow from operating activities less: cash flow from operating activities of 
Financial  Services;  investments  of  Industrial  Activities  in  assets  sold  under  operating  leases,  property,  plant  and 
equipment and intangible assets; change in derivatives hedging debt of Industrial Activities; as well as other changes 
and intersegment eliminations.

▪ Available  Liquidity  under  IFRS:  is  defined  as  cash  and  cash  equivalents  (including  restricted  cash),  undrawn 
committed  facilities  and  other  current  financial  assets  (primarily  current  securities,  short-term  deposits  and 
investments towards high-credit rating counterparties).

▪ Change  excl.  FX  or  Constant  Currency:  we  discuss  the  fluctuations  in  revenues  on  a  constant  currency  basis  by 
applying  the  prior  year  average  exchange  rates  to  current  year’s  revenues  expressed  in  local  currency  in  order  to 
eliminate the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

OPERATING RESULTS

The operations and key financial measures and financial analysis, differ significantly for manufacturing and distribution 
businesses  and  financial  services  businesses;  therefore,  for  a  better  understanding  of  our  operations  and  financial 
results,  we  present  the  following  commentary  split  by  Industrial Activities  and  Financial  Services.  Industrial Activities 
represent  the  activities  carried  out  by  the  two  industrial  segments Agriculture  and  Construction,  as  well  as  Corporate 
functions. The parent company, CNH Industrial N.V., is included under Industrial Activities as well as subsidiaries that 
provide centralized treasury services (i.e., raising funding in the market and financing Group subsidiaries). The activities 
of  the  treasury  subsidiaries  do  not  include  the  offer  of  financing  to  third  parties.  Transactions  between  Industrial 
Activities and Financial Services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated data.

(1)  The data for the year ended December 31, 2021, have been restated to exclude Iveco Group Business, consistent with Iveco Group's classification as a Discontinued Operations for 
the year ended December 31, 2021. Iveco Group's results are presented as a single line item within the Consolidated Income Statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. 
The spin-off of Iveco Group took effect on January 1, 2022 (refer to the Section - "Iveco Group Business Spin-off and Discontinued Operations" in the Notes to the Consolidated 
Financial Statements).

(2)  Industrial Activities represents the enterprise without Financial Services. Industrial Activities includes the Group's Agriculture and Construction segments, and other corporate 

assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses not reflected within Financial Services.

Net revenues

We recorded net revenues of $23,473 million in 2022, an increase of 20.5% (up 23.9% on a constant currency basis) 
compared to 2021. This increase is primarily due to increases in all segments as a result of strong industry demand and 
price realization.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales were $18,167 million in 2022 compared to $15,231 million in 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, cost 
of  sales  of  Industrial  Activities  was  77.9%  in  2022  (79.2%  in  2021),  as  a  result  of  favorable  fixed  cost  absorption 
partially  offset  by  cost  escalation.  In  2022,  cost  of  sales  includes  $49  million  of  asset  write-downs  and  financial 
receivable allowances as a result of the suspension of operations in Russia.

Selling, general and administrative costs

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") costs amounted to $1,678 million in 2022 (7.1% of net revenues) 
compared to $1,425 million in 2021 (7.3% of net revenues), SG&A costs increased by $253 million compared to 2021 
as activity levels grew and inflation affected expenses. In 2022, SG&A includes $11 million in write-downs due to the 
suspension of operations in Russia.

Research and development costs

In 2022, research and development (“R&D”) costs were $881 million (compared to $677 million in 2021) and included 
all  R&D  costs  not  recognized  as  assets  in  the  year  amounting  to  $698  million  ($492  million  in  2021)  and  the 
amortization  of  capitalized  development  cost  of  $183  million  ($185  million  in  2021).  During  2022,  CNH  Industrial 
capitalized new expenditures for development costs for $175 million ($154 million in 2021). The costs in both periods 
were primarily attributable to continued investment in new products, technologies and digital solutions.

Result from investments

Result from investments was a net gain of $108 million in 2022 and $92 million in 2021. 

Restructuring costs

Restructuring costs were $34 million and $36 million in 2022 and in 2021, respectively.

Other income/(expenses)

Other expenses were $9 million in 2022 compared to $124 million in 2021. In both periods, this item primarily included 
legal costs, indirect taxes and the benefit cost for former employees. In 2022, this item also includes $22 million ($54 
million  after-tax)  of  loss  on  the  sale  of  the  Raven  Engineered  Films  and Aerostar  divisions,  net  of  income  from  the 
Raven businesses held for sale during the period, separation costs in connection with the spin-off of the On-Highway 
business of $25 million and a $65 million gain from the sale of a facility in Canada. 

In 2021, this item also included a pre-tax gain of $95 million related to a healthcare plan amendment in the U.S., $133 
million separation costs in connection with the spin-off of the On-Highway business, $57 million for the transaction costs 
related  to  the  acquisition  of  Raven  Industries,  Inc.  and  a  gain  of  $12  million  ($9  million  after-tax)  for  a  fair  value 
adjustment of Monarch Tractor investment.

Financial income/(expenses)

Net  financial  expenses  were  $177  million  in  2022  compared  to  $151  million  in  2021,  which  included  a  charge  of  $8 
million related to the repurchase by CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A of €316 million (equivalent to $371 million) of 
outstanding notes due May 23, 2022. Excluding this charge, the increase was primarily attributable to higher negative 
foreign exchange partially offset by currency translation impact.

In 2022, CNH Industrial income taxes were an expense of $758 million, based on CNH Industrial's profit before taxes of 
$2,635 million, compared to an income tax expense of $236 million in 2021. The effective tax rates for 2022 and 2021 
were 28.8% and 12.3%, respectively. 

The 2022 tax rate was negatively impacted by increased profitability in high-tax jurisdictions, tax expenses associated 
with  the  disposition  of  Raven’s  Engineered  Films  Division  and  Raven’s  Aerostar  Division,  additional  reserves  for 
uncertain  tax  positions  and  an  increase  in  unrecognized  deferred  tax  assets  in  jurisdictions  with  highly  inflationary 
economies.  These  negative  impacts  were  partially  offset  by  $5  million  in  benefits  associated  with  previously 
unrecognized deferred tax assets in Italy. 

In 2021, income taxes were an expense of $236 million with an effective tax rate of 12.3%. The Company’s 2021 tax 
rate was positively impacted by $142 million related to recognizing deferred tax assets associated with the Company’s 
operations  in  Brazil.  The  2021  rate  was  also  reduced  by  a  reduction  in  reserves  for  uncertain  tax  positions,  and  the 
utilization of unrecognized deferred tax assets.

Profit/(loss) 

Net profit from Continuing Operations was $1,877 million in 2022 (net profit of $1,686 million in 2021). In 2022, net profit 
also  includes  $22  million  ($54  million  after-tax)  of  loss  on  the  sale  of  the  Raven  Engineered  Films  and  Aerostar 
divisions, net of income from the Raven businesses held for sale during the period, a charge of $72 million related to 
asset write-downs, financial receivable allowances and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets as a result of the 
suspension of operations in Russia, separation costs in connection with the spin-off of the On-Highway business of $25 
million ($24 million after-tax), restructuring costs of $34 million and a gain of $65 million from the sale of our Canada 
parts depot. 

In 2021, net profit from Continuing Operations also included separation costs in connection with the spin-off of the On-
Highway business of $133 million, a $100 million gain ($76 million after-tax) from a healthcare plan amendment in the 
U.S., $57 million ($47 million after-tax) for the transaction costs related to the acquisition of Raven Industries, Inc., a 
gain  of  $12  million  ($9  million  after-tax)  for  a  fair  value  adjustment  of  the  Monarch  Tractor  investment,  restructuring 
costs of $36 million as well as the pre- and after-tax charge of $8 million for the repurchase and early redemption of all 
CNH  Industrial  Finance  Europe  S.A.  outstanding  notes  due  May  23,  2022.  In  2021  net  profit  from  Discontinued 
Operations was $91 million, resulting in a total net profit of $1,777 million.

Net revenues of Industrial Activities were $21,541 million in 2022, up 20.8% compared to the prior year (up 24.3% on a 
constant currency basis), due to favorable price realization and increased sales volume.

Adjusted EBIT of Industrial Activities was $2,436 million ($1,729 million in 2021), with an adjusted EBIT margin of 11.3% 
(9.7%  in  2021).  The  increase  in  adjusted  EBIT  was  primarily  attributable  to  year  over  year  increases  in  both  the 
Agriculture and Construction segments.

currency basis), mainly due to favorable price realization and better mix, mostly driven by the North America and South 
America regions.

In North America, industry volume was up 4% year over year in 2022 for tractors over 140 HP and was down 14% for 
tractors  under  140  HP;  combines  were  up  15%.  In  Europe,  Middle  East  and  Africa  (EMEA),  tractor  and  combine 
demand was down 7% and 16%, respectively, of which Europe tractor and combine demand was down 7% and up 5%, 
respectively.  South  America  tractor  demand  was  up  3%  and  combine  demand  was  down  1%.  Asia  Pacific  tractor 
demand was up 5% and combine demand was up 50%. 

Adjusted EBIT

Adjusted EBIT was $2,460 million in 2022, compared to 1,794 million in 2021. The $666 million increase was driven by 
favorable  net  pricing  and  sales  volume/mix,  more  than  offsetting  higher  production  costs. Adjusted  EBIT  margin  was 
13.7%.

constant  currency  basis),  as  a  result  of  positive  price  realization  and  contribution  from  the  Sampierana  business, 
partially offset by the negative impact of foreign exchange rates.

Global industry volume for construction equipment decreased in both Heavy and Light sub-segments year over year in 
2022, down 11% and 9%, respectively. Aggregated demand increased 2% in EMEA, decreased 2% in North America, 
increased 18% in South America and decreased 23% for Asia Pacific, particularly in China. 

Adjusted EBIT

Adjusted EBIT was $119 million in 2022 (up $36 million compared to 2021). The improvement was due to positive price 
realization  and  favorable  volume  and  mix,  partially  offset  by  higher  product  costs  related  to  raw  material  and  freight 
costs. Adjusted EBIT margin was 3.3%.

constant currency basis), primarily due to favorable volumes in all regions, higher base rates across all regions, mainly 
in South America, and higher used equipment sales.

Net profit

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net profit was $319 million, a $38 million decrease compared to 2021, primarily 
due  to  margin  compression  in  North  America  and  increased  labor  costs,  partially  offset  by  favorable  volumes  in  all 
regions, higher recoveries on used equipment sales and higher base rates in South America.

In  2022,  retail  originations  (including  unconsolidated  joint  ventures)  were  $10.0  billion,  up  $0.2  billion  compared  to 
2021. The managed portfolio (including unconsolidated joint ventures) was $23.8 billion as of December 31, 2021 (of 
which retail was 67% and wholesale 33%), up $3.6 billion compared to December 31, 2021.

At December 31, 2022, the receivable balance greater than 30 days past-due as a percentage of receivables was 1.3% 
(1.2% as of December 31, 2021).

Cash Flow Analysis

For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022,  Cash  and  cash  equivalents  and  Restricted  cash  combined  were  $5,129 
million,  a  decrease  of  $716  million  from  December  31,  2021,  primarily  due  to  increase  of  receivables  portfolio  of 
Financial Services by  $4,245 million, payment of a dividend of $412 million to our shareholders, acquisition of treasury 
shares buy-back of $153 million and payment to Iveco Group of $503 million mainly related to the net debt outstanding 
at December 31, 2021, partially offset by operating cash generation of Industrial Activities, proceeds from the sale of 
Raven Engineered Films Division for $350 million, and new funding transactions. 

At  December  31,  2022,  Cash  and  cash  equivalents  were  $4,376  million  ($5,044  million  at  December  31,  2021)  and 
Restricted cash was $753 million ($801 million at December 31, 2021) respectively. At December 31, 2022, undrawn 
medium-term  unsecured  committed  facilities  were  $5,061  million  ($5,177  million  at  December  31,  2021)  and  Other 
current financial assets were $300 million ($2 million at December 31, 2021). At December 31, 2022, the aggregate of 
Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, undrawn medium-term unsecured committed facilities and Other current 
financial assets, which we consider to constitute our principal liquid assets (or "Available liquidity"(1)), totaled $10,632 
million ($10,521 million at December 31, 2021). 

At  December  31,  2022  this  amount  also  included  $142  million  of  net  financial  receivables  from  Iveco  Group  ($503 
million of net financial payables at December 31, 2021) consisting of net financial receivables mainly towards Financial 
Services  of  Iveco  Group  due  to  certain  day  to  day  transactions  linked  to  purchase  of  receivables  by  our  financial 
services organization which avails itself of the services of Iveco Capital Financial Services in Europe. At December 31, 
2021, the net financial payables amount was mainly due to cash balances deposited by Iveco Group legal entities to 
CNH Industrial's central treasury, including cash management and/or cash pooling arrangements. 

Net Cash from Operating Activities 

Cash provided by operating activities in 2022 totaled $2,504 million and primarily comprised the following elements:

▪ $1,877 million profit;

▪ plus $574 million in non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization (net of assets under operating leases);

▪ plus $246 million primarily attributable to changes in assets under operating leases for $223 million;

▪ plus change in provisions of $213 million;

▪ less $406 million of change in working capital. 
In 2021, cash provided by operating activities of Continuing Operations was $2,675 million primarily as a result of cash 
generated from positive operating performance for a total amount of $2,476 million and increase in cash resulting from 
change in working capital of $199 million.

Net Cash from Investing Activities

In  2022,  Net  cash  used  in  investing  activities  was  $5,255  million  primarily  due  to  investments  in  property,  plant  and 
equipment  and  intangible  assets  of  $635  (including  $175  million  in  capitalized  development  costs),  receivables 
portfolio's absorption of $4,245 million, payment to Iveco Group of $503 million debt outstanding at December 31, 2021, 
and other investing activities of $295 million, partially offset by proceeds of non-current assets for $463 million, of which 
$350 million related to the sale of Raven Engineered Films Division. 

In  2021,  cash  used  in  investing  activities  totaled  $4,001  million,  primarily  due  to  expenditures  for  consolidated 
subsidiaries and other equity investments of $2,198 million primarily related to the acquisition of the 100% interest in 
Raven  Industries,  Inc.  and  to  the  acquisition  of  90%  interest  in  Sampierana,  property,  plant  and  equipment  and 
intangible assets of $521 million, other investing activities of $459 million, and net change in receivables from financing 
activities of $842 million.

We  incurred  these  capital  expenditures  principally  related  to  initiatives  to  introduce  new  products,  enhance 
manufacturing efficiency and increase capacity, and for maintenance and engineering. Capital expenditures, related to 
Continuing Operations, were higher than 2021 due to higher investments in new product introductions and technology.

Net Cash from Financing Activities 

In  2022,  cash  provided  by  financing  activities  totaled  $2,268  million,  compared  to  $1,447  million  used  in  financing 
activities  of  Continuing  Operations,  in  2021.  Net  cash  provided  by  financing  activities  in  2022  was  primarily  due  to 
increase  in  debt,  mainly  due  to  increase  in  receivables  portfolio  of  Financial  Services,  dividends  paid  and  Treasury 
shares buy-back acquisition. 
In 2021, cash used in financing activities was primarily due to decrease in debt, mainly in Industrial Activities and the 
reinstatement of dividends paid after suspension in 2020.

Capital Resources 

The cash flows, funding requirements and liquidity of CNH Industrial are managed on a standard and centralized basis. 
This  centralized  system  is  designed  to  optimize  the  efficiency  and  effectiveness  of  our  management  of  capital 
resources.  

Our  subsidiaries  participate  in  a  company-wide  cash  management  system,  which  we  operate  in  a  number  of 
jurisdictions. Under this system, the cash balances of our subsidiaries are aggregated at the end of each business day 
to central pooling accounts. The centralized treasury management offers financial and systems expertise in managing 
these accounts, as well as providing related services and consulting to our business segments. 

Our policy is to keep a high degree of flexibility with our funding and investment options in order to maintain our desired 
level  of  liquidity  to  achieve  our  rating  targets  while  improving  the  Group  capital  structure  over  time.  In  managing  our 
liquidity  requirements,  we  are  pursuing  a  financing  strategy  that  aims  at  extending  over  time  our  Industrial Activities 
debt profile by issuing long-term bonds and retiring short-term debt through opportunistic transactions, deleveraging our 
Industrial Activities balance sheet by reducing gross debt, and diversifying funding sources.  

A summary of our strategy is set forth below: 

▪ Industrial Activities  sells  certain  of  its  receivables  to  Financial  Services  and  relies  on  internal  cash  flows  including 
managing  working  capital  to  fund  its  near-term  financing  requirements.  We  will  also  supplement  our  short-term 
financing by drawing on existing or new facilities with banks. 

▪ To the extent funding needs of Industrial Activities are determined to be of a longer-term nature, we will access public 
debt  markets  as  well  as  private  investors  and  banks,  as  appropriate,  to  refinance  borrowings  and  replenish  our 
liquidity. 

▪ Financial Services’ funding strategy is to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity and flexible access to a wide variety of 
financial instruments. While we expect securitizations and sale of receivables (factoring) to continue to represent a 
material portion of our capital structure and intersegment borrowings to remain a marginal source of funding, we will 
continue  to  diversify  our  funding  sources  and  expand  our  investor  base  within  Financial  Services  to  support  our 
investment  grade  credit  ratings.  These  diversified  funding  sources  include  committed  asset-backed  facilities, 
unsecured notes, bank facilities and, in an effort to further diversify funding sources and reduce the average cost of 
funding, Financial Services has implemented commercial paper programs in the U.S..

On a global level, we will continue to evaluate alternatives to ensure that Financial Services has access to capital on 
favorable  terms  to  support  its  business,  including  agreements  with  global  or  regional  partners,  new  funding 
arrangements  or  a  combination  of  the  foregoing.  Our  access  to  external  sources  of  financing,  as  well  as  the  cost  of 
financing, is dependent on various factors, including our credit ratings.

On January 4, 2022 Fitch Ratings raised its Long-Term Issuer Default Rating ("IDR") on CNH Industrial N.V. to ‘BBB+’ 
from ‘BBB-’. Fitch also upgraded CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A.’s senior unsecured rating to ‘BBB+’ from ‘BBB-’. 
The  Outlook  is  stable.  On  January  7,  2022,  Fitch  upgraded  the  Long-Term  IDR  and  senior  long-term  debt  ratings  of 
CNH Industrial Capital LLC and CNH Industrial Capital Canada Ltd. to 'BBB+' from 'BBB-'. The outlook is stable. Fitch 
has also upgraded CNH Industrial Capital LLC's short-term IDR and commercial paper ratings to 'F2' from 'F3'. 

On  February  25,  2022,  Moody's  upgraded  the  senior  unsecured  ratings  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  its  supported 
subsidiaries including CNH Industrial Capital LLC, CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A., CNH Industrial Capital Australia 
Pty.  Ltd.  and  CNH  Industrial  Capital  Canada  Ltd.  to  Baa2  from  Baa3.  At  the  same  time,  Moody's  withdrew  CNH 
Industrial  Finance  Europe  S.A.  short  term  rating  of  (P)P-3.  The  rating  outlook  is  stable.  Our  long-term  credit  ratings 
remained unchanged at "BBB" from Standard & Poor's Global Ratings with stable outlook.

(1) Includes treasury subsidiary, CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. 

The Group’s debt is investment grade, which the Group believes will allow it to access funding at better rates.

A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. Ratings may be subject to revision or withdrawal 
at any time by the assigning rating organization, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. 
A  deterioration  in  our  ratings  could  impair  our  ability  to  obtain  debt  financing  and  would  increase  the  cost  of  such 
financing.  Ratings  are  influenced  by  a  number  of  factors,  including,  among  others:  financial  leverage  on  an  absolute 
basis or relative to peers, the composition of the balance sheet and/or capital structure, material changes in earnings 
trends and volatility, ability to dividend monies from subsidiaries and our competitive position. Material deterioration in 
any  one,  or  a  combination,  of  these  factors  could  result  in  a  downgrade  of  our  ratings,  thus  increasing  the  cost,  and 
limiting the availability, of financing.

We  believe  that  Net  Cash/(Debt),  a  non-GAAP  financial  measure  as  defined  in  the  section  "Alternative  performance 
measures (or “Non-GAAP financial measures”)", of section "General" above, is a useful analytical metric for measuring 
our effective borrowing requirements. We provide a separate analysis of Net Cash/(Debt) of Industrial Activities and Net 
(Cash)/Debt of Financial Services to reflect the different cash flow management practices in the two activities. Industrial 
Activities  reflects  the  consolidation  of  all  majority-owned  subsidiaries,  including  those  performing  centralized  treasury 
activities,  except  for  Financial  Services  subsidiaries.  Financial  Services  reflects  the  consolidation  of  the  Financial 
Services’ businesses.

(1)  At December 31, 2022, this item includes payables related to purchases of receivables or collections with settlement in the following days. 

(2)  At December 31, 2022, this item includes receivables related to sales of receivables or collections with settlement in the following days.

(3) The Debt at December 31, 2021, presented in the Annual Report at  December 31, 2021 and in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Positions, has been re-presented to show, in a clearer view, the 

amounts of financial payables and receivables vs. Iveco Group after the Demerger. 
As a result of the role played by the central treasury, debt for Industrial Activities also includes funding raised by the central treasury on behalf of Financial Services (included under Intersegment financial 
receivables). Intersegment notes receivable for Financial Services, on the other hand, represent loans or advances to Industrial Activities – for receivables sold to Financial Services that do not meet the 
derecognition requirements – as well as cash deposited temporarily with the central treasury. Total Debt of Industrial Activities includes Intersegment notes payable to Financial Services of $63 million and 
$150 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Debt of Financial Services includes Intersegment notes payable to Industrial Activities of  $922 million and $209 million as of December 31, 
2022 and 2021,, respectively.

(4)  This item includes short-term deposits and investments towards high-credit rating counterparties.

(5)  Derivatives hedging debt include the positive and negative fair values of derivative financial instruments.

(6)  The net intersegment notes receivable/(payable) balance recorded by Financial Services relating to Industrial Activities was negative of  $859 and of  $59 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, 

respectively.

Excluding  positive  exchange  rate  differences  of  $433  million,  Net  Debt  at  December  31,  2022  increased  by  $2,533 
million  compared  to  December  31,  2021,  mainly  due  to  the  increase  in  portfolio  receivables  of  Financial  Services  for 
$4,245 million, dividend cash-out of $412 million, Treasury shares buy-back acquisition of $153 million, partially offset 
by Free Cash Flow generation from Industrial Activities of $1,591 million, proceeds from the sale of Raven Engineered 
Films Division for $350 million, and Financial Services operating cash generation (net of portfolio growth).

repurchase of notes.

We  believe  that  Free  Cash  Flow  of  Industrial  Activities  (a  non-GAAP  financial  measure  as  defined  in  the  section 
"Alternative  performance  measures",  or  “Non-GAAP  financial  measures",  above)  is  a  useful  analytical  metric  for 
measuring the cash generation ability of our Industrial Activities. 

For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022,  the  Free  Cash  Flow  of  Industrial  Activities  was  positive  of  $1,591  million 
(positive of $1,918 million for Continuing Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021), primarily due to the strong 
performance of the segments, partially offset by an increase in working capital exacerbated by supply chain disruptions 
in the latter part of the year.

The reconciliation of Free Cash Flow of Industrial Activities to Net cash provided by/(used in) Operating Activities, the 
EU-IFRS  financial  measure  that  we  believe  to  be  most  directly  comparable,  for  the  years  ended  December  31, 2022

The  non-GAAP  financial  measures  (Available  liquidity,  Net  Cash/(Debt)  and  Free  Cash  Flow  of  Industrial Activities), 
used in this section, should neither be considered as a substitute for, nor superior to, measures of financial performance 
prepared  in  accordance  with  EU-IFRS.  In  addition,  these  non-GAAP  financial  measures  may  not  be  computed  in  the 
same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. 

Industrial Activities 

Capital Markets

At  December  31,  2022,  we  had  an  aggregate  amount  of  $9.0  billion  in  bonds  outstanding,  of  which  $4.9  billion  was 
issued by Industrial Activities. 

The  capital  markets  debt  of  Industrial  Activities  mainly  related  to  notes  issued  under  the  Euro  Medium  Term  Note 
Programme  (and  the  notes  issued  under  its  predecessor,  the  Global  Medium  Term  Notes  Programme),  and  senior 
unsecured debt securities issued by CNH Industrial N.V. described below. 

Euro Medium Term Note ("EMTN") Programme. We have a medium-term note programme allowing for the placement 
of  debt  securities  up  to  a  total  authorized  amount  of  €10  billion  ($11  billion). At  December  31,  2022,  €3,569  million 
($3,806  million) was  outstanding  under  the  programme,  all  such  debt  having  been  issued  by  CNH  Industrial  Finance 
Europe S.A. and guaranteed by CNH Industrial N.V.

CNH Industrial N.V. Senior Notes. In the United States, CNH Industrial N.V has issued notes from time to time. In 2016, 
CNH Industrial N.V. issued $600 million of notes at an interest rate of 4.50% due August 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) at an 
issue price of 100 percent of their principal amount, and, in 2017, CNH Industrial N.V. issued $500 million of notes at an 
interest rate of 3.850% due November 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) at an issue price of 99.384% of their principal amount. 
The 2023 Notes and the 2027 Notes are collectively referred to as the “CNH Industrial N.V. Senior Notes”. 

The  notes  issued  under  the  EMTN  (and  its  predecessor  the  Global  Medium  Term  Notes  Programme)  as  well  as  the 
CNH  Industrial  N.V.  Senior  Notes  impose  covenants  and  other  obligations  on  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  as  issuer  and,  in 
certain cases, as guarantor and CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. as issuer, including: (i) a negative pledge provision 
which requires that, if any security interest over assets of the issuer or the guarantor is granted in connection with debt 
that  is,  or  is  capable  of  being,  listed  or  any  guarantee  is  granted  in  connection  with  such  debt,  such  security  or 
guarantee must be equally and ratably extended to the outstanding notes; (ii) a status (or pari passu) covenant, under 
which  the  notes  rank  and  will  rank  pari  passu  with  all  other  present  and  future  outstanding  unsubordinated  and 
unsecured obligations of the issuer and/or the guarantor (subject to mandatorily preferred obligations under applicable 
laws); (iii) an events of default provision setting out certain customary events (such as cross defaults, insolvency related 
events, etc.) the occurrence of which entitles the holders of the outstanding notes to accelerate the repayment of the 
notes; (iv) change of control provisions which, when combined with a rating downgrade of CNH Industrial N.V., grant the 
note holders the right to require immediate repayment of the notes; and (v) other clauses that are generally applicable 
to  securities  of  a  similar  type.  A  breach  of  these  obligations  may  require  the  early  repayment  of  the  notes.  At 
December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial was in compliance with the covenants of the notes issued under the EMTN (and its 
predecessor the Global Medium Term Notes Programme) and the CNH Industrial N.V. Senior Notes.  

CNH  Industrial  intends  to  repay  the  issued  bonds  in  cash  at  the  due  date  by  utilizing  available  liquid  resources.  In 
addition,  CNH  Industrial  may  from  time  to  time  buy-back  or  enforce  the  available  call  options  of  issued  bonds.  Such 
buy-backs,  if  made,  depend  upon  market  conditions,  the  financial  situation  of  CNH  Industrial  and  other  factors  which 
could affect such decisions.

Bank Debt 

At  December  31,  2022,  Industrial  Activities  available  committed  unsecured  facilities  expiring  after  twelve  months 
amounted to $4.5 billion ($4.5 billion at December 31, 2021). 

Euro  4  billion  Revolving  Credit  Facility.  In  March  2019,  the  Company  signed  a  five-year  committed  revolving  credit 
facility for €4 billion ($4.5 billion at March 31, 2019 exchange rate) due to mature in 2024 with two extension options of 
1-year each, exercisable on the first and second anniversary of the signing date. CNH Industrial exercised the first of 
the  two  extension  options  as  of  February  28,  2020  and  the  second  extension  option  as  of  February  26,  2021.  The 
facility  is  now  due  to  mature  in  March  2026  for  €3,950.5  million;  €49.5  million  within  the  facility  will  mature  in  March 
2025. The credit facility replaced a five-year €1.75 billion credit facility scheduled to mature in 2021 and includes: 

▪ customary  covenants  (including  a  negative  pledge,  a  status  (or  pari  passu)  covenant  and  restrictions  on  the 

incurrence of indebtedness by certain subsidiaries); 

▪ customary events of default (some of which are subject to minimum thresholds and customary mitigants), including 
cross-default provisions, failure to pay amounts due or to comply with certain provisions under the loan agreement 
and the occurrence of certain bankruptcy-related events; and: 

▪ mandatory prepayment obligations upon a change in control of CNH Industrial or the borrower; 

Board Report     Operating and Financial Review and Prospects     72

▪ a financial covenant (Net debt/EBITDA ratio relating to Industrial Activities) (this covenant is not applicable given the 

current ratings levels). 

CNH Industrial N.V. has guaranteed any borrowings under the revolving credit facility with cross-guarantees from each 
of the borrowers (i.e., CNH Industrial Finance S.p.A., CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. and CNH Industrial Finance 
North America  Inc.). At  December  31,  2022,  CNH  Industrial  was  in  compliance  with  the  covenants  of  the  Revolving 
Credit Facility. 

Financial Services

Total  debt  of  Financial  Services  was  $19.4  billion  at  December  31, 2022,  compared  to  $16.0  billion  at  December  31, 
2021. 

Bank Debt 

At  December  31,  2022,  Financial  Services'  available  committed,  unsecured  facilities  expiring  after  twelve  months 
amounted to $0.6 billion ($0.7 billion at December 31, 2021).  

Asset-Backed Financing 

At December 31, 2022, Financial Services’ committed asset-backed facilities expiring after twelve months amounted to 
$2.9 billion ($3.0 billion at December 31, 2021), of which $2.1 billion was utilized at December 31, 2022, ($2.0 billion at 
December 31, 2021).

We  sell  certain  of  our  financial  receivables  to  third  parties  in  order  to  improve  liquidity,  to  take  advantage  of  market 
opportunities  and,  in  certain  circumstances,  to  reduce  credit  and  concentration  risk  in  accordance  with  our  risk 
management objectives.  

The sale of financial receivables is executed primarily through ABS transactions and involves retail notes and wholesale 
receivables originated to our Financial Services subsidiaries from end-use customers and dealers, respectively.   

At  December  31,  2022,  our  receivables  from  financing  activities  included  receivables  sold  and  financed  through  both 
ABS and factoring transactions of $12.6 billion ($10.3 billion at December 31, 2021), which do not meet derecognition 
requirements  and  therefore  are  recorded  on  our  consolidated  statement  of  financial  position.  These  receivables  are 
recognized  as  such  in  our  financial  statements  even  though  they  have  been  legally  sold;  a  corresponding  financial 
liability  is  recorded  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  financial  position  as  debt  (see  Note  17  “Current  receivables  and 
Other current financial assets” to our Consolidated Financial Statements). 

Capital Markets 

In May 2021, CNH Industrial Capital LLC issued $600 million of 1.45% notes due in 2026 at an issue price of 99.208% 
of their principal amount.

In  July  2021,  CNH  Industrial  Capital Australia  Pty.  Limited  issued AUD  200  million  of  1.75%  notes  due  in  2024  at  an 
issue price of 99.863% of their principal amount.

In September 2021, CNH Industrial Capital Australia Pty. Limited issued AUD 50 million of 1.750% notes due in 2024 at 
an issue price of 101.069% of their principal amount. This issue is a private placement.

In  September  2021,  CNH  Industrial  Capital  Canada  Ltd  issued  CAD  300  million  of  1.500%  notes  due  in  2024  at  an 
issue price of 99.936% of their principal amount.

Support Agreement in the Interest of CNH Industrial Capital LLC  

CNH Industrial Capital LLC benefits from a support agreement issued by CNH Industrial N.V., pursuant to which CNH 
Industrial N.V. agrees to, among other things, (a) make cash capital contributions to CNH Industrial Capital LLC, to the 
extent  necessary  to  cause  its  ratio  of  net  earnings  available  for  fixed  charges  to  fixed  charges  to  be  not  less  than 
1.05:1.0 for each fiscal quarter (with such ratio determined, on a consolidated basis and in accordance with U.S. GAAP, 
for such fiscal quarter and the immediately preceding three fiscal quarters taken as a whole), (b) generally maintain an 
ownership  of  at  least  51%  of  the  voting  equity  interests  in  CNH  Industrial  Capital  LLC  and  (c)  cause  CNH  Industrial 
Capital LLC to have, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, a consolidated tangible net worth of at least $50 million. The 
support agreement is not intended to be, and is not, a guarantee by CNH Industrial N.V. of the indebtedness or other 
obligations  of  CNH  Industrial  Capital  LLC.  The  obligations  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  to  CNH  Industrial  Capital  LLC 
pursuant to this support agreement are to the company only and do not run to, and are not enforceable directly by, any 
creditor of CNH Industrial Capital LLC, including holders of the CNH Industrial Capital LLC’s notes or the trustee under 
the indenture governing the notes. The support agreement may be modified, amended or terminated, at CNH Industrial 
N.V.’s  election,  upon  thirty  days’  prior  written  notice  to  CNH  Industrial  Capital  LLC  and  the  rating  agencies  of  CNH 
Industrial  Capital  LLC,  if  (a)  the  modification,  amendment  or  termination  would  not  result  in  a  downgrade  of  CNH 
Industrial  Capital  LLC  rated  indebtedness;  (b)  the  modification,  amendment  or  notice  of  termination  provides  that  the 
support  agreement  will  continue  in  effect  with  respect  to  the  company’s  rated  indebtedness  then  outstanding;  or  (c) 
CNH Industrial Capital LLC has no long-term rated indebtedness outstanding.

For more information on our outstanding indebtedness, see Note 24 “Debt” to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Future Liquidity  

We  have  adopted  formal  policies  and  decision-making  processes  designed  to  optimize  the  allocation  of  funds,  cash 
management processes and financial risk management. Our liquidity needs could increase in the event of an extended 
economic slowdown or recession that would reduce our cash flow from operations and impair the ability of our dealers 
and retail customers to meet their payment obligations. Any reduction of our credit ratings would increase our cost of 
funding and potentially limit our access to the capital markets and other sources of financing.  

We  believe  that  funds  available  under  our  current  liquidity  facilities,  those  realized  under  existing  and  planned  asset-
backed securitization programs and issuances of debt securities and those expected from ordinary course refinancing 
of existing credit facilities, together with cash provided by operating activities, will allow us to satisfy our debt service 
requirements  for  the  coming  year.  At  December  31,  2022,  the  Group  had  available  committed,  unsecured  facilities 
expiring after twelve months of $5.1 billion ($5.2 billion at December 31, 2021).

Financial  Services  securitized  debt  is  repaid  with  the  cash  generated  by  the  underlying  amortizing  receivables. 
Accordingly,  additional  liquidity  is  not  normally  necessary  for  the  repayment  of  such  debt.  Financial  Services  has 
traditionally relied upon the term ABS market and committed asset-backed facilities as a primary source of funding and 
liquidity.  At  December  31,  2022,  Financial  Services’  committed  asset-backed  facilities  expiring  after  twelve  months 
amounted to $2.9 billion ($3.0 billion at December 31, 2021), of which $2.1 billion at December 31, 2022 ($2.0 billion at 
December 31, 2021) were utilized.

If  Financial  Services  were  unable  to  obtain  ABS  funding  at  competitive  rates  and  at  the  same  time  were  unable  to 
access  other  sources  of  finding  at  similar  conditions,  its  ability  to  conduct  its  financial  services  activities  would  be 
limited. 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  

We  use  certain  off-balance  sheet  arrangements  with  unconsolidated  third  parties  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business, 
including  financial  guarantees.  Our  arrangements  are  described  in  more  detail  below.  For  additional  information,  see 
Note 27 “Commitments and contingencies” to the CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements. 

Financial Guarantees  

Our financial guarantees require us to make contingent payments upon the occurrence of certain events or changes in 
an underlying instrument that is related to an asset, a liability or the equity of the guaranteed party. These guarantees 
include arrangements that are direct obligations, giving the party receiving the guarantee a direct claim against us, as 
well as indirect obligations, under which we have agreed to provide the funds necessary for another party to satisfy an

guarantees on non-consolidated affiliates, totaling $19 million as of December 31, 2022.

(1)  Reserves for uncertain tax positions are not included within this table as the timing and ultimate uncertainty of settlement with the relevant taxing authorities is not known.

(2)  Amounts presented exclude the related interest expense that will be paid when due. The table above does not include obligations for pension plans, health care plans, other post-employment benefits and 
other employee benefits. Our best estimate of expected contributions in  2023 to pension plans is $36 million. Potential outflows in the years after  2023 are subject to a number of uncertainties, including 
future asset performance and changes in assumptions, and therefore we are unable to make sufficiently reliable estimates of future contributions beyond 2023.

(3) Other debt includes $1,180 million of payables represented by securities, $147 million of other debt and $156 million of payables to Iveco Group.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL 
SYSTEM

CNH INDUSTRIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 
Risk management is an important component of CNH Industrial’s overall culture and is integral to the achievement of its 
long-term business plan. Accordingly, our Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) framework is designed to assist in the 
identification,  evaluation  and  prioritization  of  business  risks  (including  environmental,  social,  and  governance  risks), 
followed  by  a  coordinated  and  balanced  application  of  resources  to  minimize,  monitor,  and  control  the  probability  or 
impact of adverse events or to maximize the realization of opportunities. 

CNH  Industrial's  ERM  processes  are  aligned  with  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway 
Commission (“COSO”) published framework, as well as the principles of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code, further 
adapted  for  specific  business  requirements  by  incorporating  Company  management  knowledge  and  best  practices 
identified by third-party risk consulting firms.

CNH Industrial's ERM framework has identified 43 primary enterprise risks, further broken down into 123 specific risk 
drivers.  Primary  risk  drivers  include  a  number  of  significant  topics,  such  as  business  strategies  and  operations, 
competitive  factors,  social  responsibility  and  environmental  issues,  and  regulatory  compliance. The  process  follows  a 
bottom-up  analysis  starting  at  the  business  unit  level,  with  risk  survey  completion  by  business  and  function  leaders 
worldwide, followed by cross-functional reviews, one-on-one interviews with Senior Leadership Team ("SLT") members, 
presentations  and  risk  assessment  discussions  with  the Audit  Committee  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  and  review  and 
discussion  with  the  Board  of  Directors.  Direct  feedback  received  from  each  of  these  layers  up  to  and  including  the 
Board  of  Directors  is  then  used  to  identify  and  develop  risk  mitigation  activities  as  necessary  within  the  business  or 
functional area, which are deployed by management. 

Inherently, CNH Industrial's ERM framework is not meant to provide a guarantee of the accuracy or completeness of 
the  risk  assessments  performed  or  on  the  full  achievement  of  CNH  Industrial’s  objectives.  CNH  Industrial’s  potential 
overall risk exposure is described in the Risk Factors section. 

RISK MITIGATION ACTIVITIES

The  risk  mitigation  activities  initiated  by  management  are  designed  to  mitigate  adverse  impacts  to  CNH  Industrial’s 
business plan, including financial and operational performance, during 2022 and beyond. The ERM framework is linked 
with our sustainability program and its strategic sustainability targets, our aspirational goals articulated in the strategic 
business plan and our employee and customer safety goals. These targets and goals, which are incorporated into the 
individual segment business plans, provide a framework to address the long-term challenges to increasing stakeholder 
value and proactively mitigate associated risks. 

For example, as the Company faces protracted supply chain constraints, our ERM processes help to ensure we remain 
resilient amid such economic uncertainty. Associated risks have been integrated into our ERM framework to help the 
business  stay  ahead  of  preventable  disruptions  and  seize  opportunities  when  identified.  Mitigating  actions  that  the 
Company has taken include, for example, sensitivity analyses of our European natural gas dependencies, associated 
risks by country and alternative sourcing opportunities, as well as similar sourcing assessments concerning China and 
the semiconductor industry.

Our  ERM  process  also  monitors  emerging  risks,  which  we  define  as  new  risks  or  risks  for  which  the  impacts  are 
unknown  or  evolving  and  thus  may  be  incorporated  into  risk  assessment  and  mitigation  activities  when  deemed 
necessary. For example, the post-pandemic and evolving working models and increasing talent leverage in the market 
represent  emerging  risks  that  require  close  monitoring  to  ensure  we  are  readily  able  to  adapt  and  adopt  new,  highly 
productive  working  strategies.  Mitigation  actions  already  underway  include  implementation  of  culture  management 
initiatives intended to provide measured assessments of shared behaviors, giving our employees an ongoing voice and 
empowering  our  business  leaders  to  help  adopt  and  support  the  desired  Company  culture.  Further,  various  hybrid 
working models are being piloted across our multiple regions of operation to identify optimal work environments given 
local needs and expectations.

RISK APPETITE

CNH  Industrial’s  risk  appetite  is  set  within  risk  taking  and  risk  acceptance  parameters  driven  by  our  business  plan, 
Code of Conduct, core principles and values, policies, and applicable laws. Our ERM framework includes a structured 
risk management process to address key risks, with a delineated risk appetite applied to each of the risk categories and

CNH Industrial seeks to 
minimize the occurrence 
and consequences of 
unforeseen operational 
risks with a medium-low 
appetite.

CNH Industrial has a low 
risk appetite with respect 
to financial risks (such as 
liquidity, market, foreign 
exchange and interest rate 
risks as explained in more 
detail in Note 30 of the 
Consolidated Financial 
Statements). 

CNH Industrial has an 
averse risk appetite with 
respect to compliance risks 
and requires full 
compliance.

ENHANCEMENTS TO THE RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS 

The  development  and  implementation  of  an  effective  and  robust  ERM  framework  requires  continuous  evaluation  and 
improvement. As part of these efforts, CNH Industrial continues to enhance its risk management process, including the 
ongoing  rollout  of  targeted  risk  assessments  conducted  by  subject  matter  experts  within  the  business.  These 
assessments, which now cover more than half of our full risk register, help identify important risk exposures outside of 
predetermined risk tolerance levels and trigger the execution of new or previously identified risk mitigation activities that 
are  intended  to  reduce  or,  in  certain  cases,  eliminate  the  risk  exposures  altogether.  We  have  also  better  aligned  our 
oversight  functions  to  improve  the  internal  transparency  of  our  risk  profile  and  increase  efficiencies  across  ERM, 
Finance,  Internal Audit,  IT  Security,  Internal  Controls  (including  Sarbanes-Oxley  functions)  and  Legal  &  Compliance. 
Quarterly risk reports are delivered to our ERM Supervising Committee as well as the Senior Leadership Team, giving 
business  transparency  to  our  risk  management  processes  and  latest  risk  profiles.  Finally,  we  continue  to  expand  our 
GRC  software  platform  to  provide  more  intuitive  and  automated  coverage  of  common  high-risk  areas  such  as 
information  technology  and  cybersecurity,  business  continuity  management  and  environment,  social  and  governance 
("ESG") monitoring and reporting.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM

The Company has in place an internal control system, based on the model provided by COSO and the principles of the 
Dutch Corporate Governance Code, which consists of a set of policies, procedures and organizational structures aimed 
at identifying, measuring, managing, and monitoring the principal risks to which CNH Industrial is exposed. The system 
is integrated within the organizational and corporate governance framework adopted by CNH Industrial and contributes 
to  the  protection  of  corporate  assets,  as  well  as  to  ensuring  the  efficiency  and  effectiveness  of  business  processes, 
reliability of financial information, and compliance with laws, regulations, the Company’s Code of Conduct, policies, and 
internal procedures.

The system, which has been developed on the basis of international best practices, consists of the following three lines:

▪ Management:

1. operating areas, which identify and assess risk and establish specific actions for management of such risk;

2.  central  functions  responsible  for  risk  control,  which  define  methodologies  and  instruments  for  managing  and 

monitoring such risk.

▪ Internal Audit:

3. conducts independent evaluations of the system in its entirety. 

Board Report   Risk Management and Control System    78

Principal Characteristics of the Internal Control System and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

CNH  Industrial  has  in  place  a  system  of  risk  management  and  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  based  on  the 
model provided by COSO, according to which the internal control system is defined as a set of rules, procedures and 
tools designed to provide reasonable assurance of the achievement of corporate objectives. In relation to the financial 
reporting process, reliability, accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the information contribute to the achievement of 
such corporate objectives. Risk management is an integral part of the internal control system. A periodic evaluation of 
the system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to ensure the overall effectiveness of the components 
of the COSO Framework (Governance & Culture; Strategy & Objective-Setting; Performance; Review & Revision; and 
Information, Communication, & Reporting) in achieving those objectives.

CNH Industrial – which is listed on the NYSE and, consequently, is subject to Section 404 of the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley 
Act  since  2014  –  has  a  system  of  administrative  and  accounting  procedures  in  place  that  seeks  to  ensure  a  highly 
reliable system of internal control over financial reporting.

The  approach  adopted  by  CNH  Industrial  for  the  evaluation,  monitoring  and  continuous  updating  of  the  system  of 
internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  is  based  on  a  ‘top-down,  risk-based’  process  consistent  with  the  COSO 
Framework.  This  enables  focus  on  areas  of  higher  risk  and/or  materiality,  where  there  is  risk  of  significant  errors, 
including  those  attributable  to  fraud,  in  the  elements  of  the  financial  statements  and  related  documents.  The  key 
components of the process are:

▪ identification and evaluation of the source and probability of significant errors in elements of financial reporting;

▪ assessment of the adequacy of key controls in enabling ex-ante or ex-post identification of potential misstatements in 

elements of financial reporting; and

▪ verification of the operating effectiveness of controls based on the assessment of the risk of misstatement in financial 

reporting, with testing focused on areas of higher risk.

Identification  and  evaluation  of  the  risk  of  misstatements  which  could  have  material  effects  on  financial  reporting  is 
carried  out  through  a  risk  assessment  process  that  uses  a  top-down  approach  to  identify  the  organizational  entities, 
processes and the related accounts, in addition to specific activities, which could potentially generate significant errors. 
Under the methodology adopted by CNH Industrial, risks and related controls are associated with the accounting and 
business processes upon which accounting information is based. 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 
2022,  using  the  criteria  set  forth  in  Internal  Control  -  Integrated  Framework  (2013)  issued  by  the  Committee  of 
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, management believes that, as of 
December 31, 2022, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 

INTRODUCTION

CNH Industrial is a company, organized under the laws of the Netherlands, initially formed from a business combination 
of  Fiat  Industrial  S.p.A.  and  CNH  Global  N.V.  consummated  on  September  29,  2013.  On  January  1,  2022,  the  On-
Highway  businesses,  now  known  as  Iveco  Group  was  separated  from  the  Company  and  became  a  public  listed 
company independent from the Company through a demerger under Dutch law. CNH Industrial qualifies as a foreign 
private  issuer  under  the  applicable  rules  of  the  SEC  and  its  common  shares  are  listed  on  the  NYSE  and  on  the 
Euronext Milan.

We are subject to, among other things, the laws of the Netherlands and the laws and regulations applicable to foreign 
private issuers in the U.S., the Dutch Corporate Governance Code (the “DCGC”), the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, the 
Dodd-Frank Act  and  the  NYSE  listing  standards,  which  are  of  particular  significance  to  our  corporate  governance.  In 
accordance with the NYSE Listed Company Manual, we are permitted to follow home country practice with regard to 
certain  corporate  governance  standards.  We  describe  the  significant  differences  between  our  corporate  governance 
practices  and  those  required  (i)  under  the  DCGC  and  (ii)  for  domestic  U.S.  listed  companies  by  the  NYSE  listing 
standards on our website.

The  Company  has  adopted  a  one-tier  governance  structure.  This  choice  of  a  one-tier  governance  structure 
necessitated the implementation of certain governance solutions that are not typical of two-tier board frameworks.

In this Annual Report CNH Industrial discusses its overall corporate governance structure. The Company discloses in 
this Annual Report, and intends to disclose in its future annual reports, any material departure from the best practice 
provisions of the DCGC.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Company has adopted a one-tier governance structure. The Board has collective responsibility for the strategy of 
the Company. During 2022, the Board reviewed and discussed with management, among other things, the Company's 
strategy,  and  the  long-term  value  creation  strategies  of  all  the  Company’s  individual  business  segments  and  their 
deployment in the regions.

The  Non-Executive  Directors  believe  that  in  consideration  of  the  size  of  the  Company,  the  complexity  and  specific 
characteristics  of  the  segments  in  which  it  operates  and  the  worldwide  presence  of  its  business,  an  adequate  and 
diversified mix of skills, experience and cultures, both general and specific, acquired in an international environment, in 
relation to the capital goods industry and with respect to general macroeconomics and market globalization issues, as 
well as the industrial and financial sectors, and other diversity factors (such as gender, race, ethnicity, and country of 
origin or nationality) are necessary prerequisites to achieve a Board having the appropriate diversification and collegial 
capabilities,  also  assured  by  an  appropriate  balance  between  the  number  of  Executive  Directors  and  Non-Executive 
Directors. Independent Directors – identified as such both pursuant to NYSE and DGCG provisions – have an essential 
role  in  protecting  the  interests  of  all  stakeholders  and  in  the  proper  composition  and  functioning  of  the  Board 
Committees,  further  described  below.  It  is  generally  recognized  that  more  diverse  boards  are  more  effective  in 
performing their monitoring and advisory activities, due to the variety of professional experience, perspectives, insights, 
skills and connections to the outside world that diversity can add. Accordingly, the Board will continue to actively seek 
diverse candidates for possible appointment to the Board; though no formal diversity policy was adopted, the Board has 
in  the  past  and  expects  to  continue  to  utilize  the  services  of  executive  search  firms  to  assist  in  the  identification  of 
qualified and diverse candidates for nomination for appointment to the Board.

Below are the names, year of birth and position of each person currently serving as a director of the Company.

one another, the Executive Directors, and any other particular interest involved; and in accordance with the DCGC. 

The Board of Directors of the Company has appointed: (i) an Audit Committee, (ii) a Human Capital and Compensation 
Committee, and (iii) an Environmental, Social, and Governance Committee. Members serve on these committees until

Leadership Team ("SLT"). The SLT is an operational decision-making body of CNH Industrial, which is responsible for 
reviewing the operating performance of the segments and making decisions on certain operational matters. Additional

Each year, under the oversight of the Environmental, Social and Governance Committee and with the assistance of the 
Chief  Legal  and  Compliance  Officer,  the  Board  undertakes  an  annual  evaluation  of  its  own  effectiveness  and 
performance,  and  that  of  the  Committees  and  individual  Directors.  For  2022,  the  evaluation  of  the  Board  and  its 
Committees consists of a self-assessment by each of the directors facilitated by a written questionnaire covering key 
functions such as composition of the Board, collegiality, information, oversight and involvement, and effectiveness of the 
Committees,  and  designed  to  promote  a  robust  and  comprehensive  performance  assessment  discussion.  The  Chair 
meets with each of the Directors to discuss the performance of the Board, the Committees, and individual directors. The 
Board  of  Directors  discusses  the  results  of  such  performance  assessment,  in  executive  session,  and  agrees  upon 
actions  to  take  advantage  of  identified  opportunities  for  improvement.  On  the  recommendation  of  the  Environmental, 
Social, and Governance Committee, the Board periodically engages a third party to facilitate the annual performance 
assessment.

CNH Industrial established the SLT to strengthen the quality of the Company’s decision-making and the implementation 
of its strategy. 

The  SLT  is  an  operational  decision-making  body  of  CNH  Industrial,  which  is  responsible  for  reviewing  the  operating 
performance  of  the  segments  and  making  decisions  on  certain  operational  matters.  The  Board  of  Directors  remains 
accountable for the decisions of the SLT and has ultimate responsibility for the Company’s management and external 
reporting. The SLT is comprised of CNH Industrial’s Chief Executive Officer, and key senior managers. 

The SLT is effectively supervised by the Non-Executive Directors of the Board of Directors. For this purpose, the SLT, 
either  directly  or  through  the  Executive  Directors,  provides  the  Non-Executive  Directors  with  all  information  the  Non-
Executive Directors require to fulfill their responsibilities. During 2022, the leaders of various Segments and business 
units (all SLT members) presented to the Board their operating results, updated strategic business plans, and long-term 
value creation strategies as well as their top short-term and mid-term operational and strategic risks. The presentations 
allowed  management  to  articulate  their  strategies  for  achievement  of  their  business  objectives  and  mitigation  of  risks 
and permitted the Board of Directors to give feedback on management’s plans. 

AMOUNT AND COMPOSITION OF THE REMUNERATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Details of the remuneration of the Board of Directors and its Committees are set forth under the section Remuneration 
of Directors. Non-Executive Directors are not awarded remuneration in the form of shares and/or rights to shares (they 
are paid only in cash) and their compensation is not affected by Company results.

INDEMNIFICATION OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Pursuant  to  Article  17  of  the  Articles  of  Association,  the  Company  has  committed  to  indemnify  any  and  all  of  its 
Directors, officers, former Directors, former officers and any person who may have served at its request as a Director or 
officer of another company in which it owns shares or of which it is a creditor, against any and all expenses actually and 
necessarily incurred by any of them in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which they, or 

Board Report   Corporate Governance    86

any of them, are made parties, or a party, by reason of being or having been Director or officer of the Company, or of 
such other company, except in relation to matters as to which any such person shall be adjudged in an action, suit or 
proceeding  to  be  liable  for  negligence  or  misconduct  in  the  performance  of  duty.  Such  indemnification  shall  not  be 
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified persons may be entitled otherwise.

DIRECTOR'S INDEPENDENCE AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Each year the Board reviews the Non-Executive Directors’, and their related persons’ relevant relationships as required 
by the applicable regulations. The Board currently considers all our Non-Executive Directors to be independent for the 
purposes  of  DCGC  and  NYSE  listing  standards.  Further,  the  Executive  Directors  are  requested  to  annually  assess 
whether they are independent as set out in the DCGC and NYSE Listing Standards.  

The  Board  has  designed  procedures  to  avoid  conflicts  of  interest  by  Board  members. A  Director  must  without  delay 
report  any  conflict  of  interest  or  potential  conflict  of  interest  to  the  Chair  and  to  the  other  Directors,  or,  in  case  any 
conflict  of  interest  or  potential  conflict  of  interest  of  the  Chair,  to  the  Senior  Non-Executive  Director  and  to  the  other 
Directors.  The  Director  in  question  must  provide  all  relevant  information  to  the  Board,  so  that  the  Board  can  decide 
whether a reported (potential) conflict of interest of a Director qualifies as a conflict of interest within the meaning of the 
relevant  laws. A  Director  may  not  take  part  in  the  decision-taking  process  of  the  Board  in  respect  of  any  situation  in 
which he or she has a conflict of interest.
The Conflict-of-Interest Policy is available on the Company’s website, www.cnhindustrial.com.  

LOYALTY VOTING PROGRAM

Our  authorized  share  capital  is  €40,000,000  consisting  of  two  billion  (2,000,000,000)  common  shares  and  two  billion 
(2,000,000,000) special voting shares to be held with associated common shares, each having a par value of one euro 
cent (€0.01). Our common shares are registered shares represented by an entry in the share register of CNH Industrial. 
Beneficial  interests  in  our  common  shares  traded  on  the  NYSE  are  held  through  the  book-entry  system  provided  by 
DTC  and  are  registered  in  the  register  of  shareholders  in  the  name  of  Cede  &  Co.,  as  DTC’s  nominee.  Beneficial 
interests in the common shares traded on the Euronext Milan are held through Monte Titoli S.p.A., the Italian central 
clearing and settlement system, as a participant in DTC.

In  connection  with  the  Merger,  CNH  Industrial  implemented  a  loyalty  voting  program,  pursuant  to  which  the  former 
shareholders of each of Fiat Industrial and CNH Global were able to elect to receive one CNH Industrial special voting 
share to be held only with each CNH Industrial common share they were entitled to receive in the Merger, provided that 
they fulfilled the requirements described in the terms and conditions of the loyalty voting program. The CNH Industrial 
common shares held by shareholders that elected to participate in the loyalty voting program had their common shares 
registered  in  the  Company's  Loyalty  Register.  Following  this  registration,  a  corresponding  number  of  special  voting 
shares  were  allocated  to  such  shareholders,  and  the  additional  voting  rights  could  be  exercised  at  the  first  CNH 
Industrial  shareholders’  meeting  that  followed  the  registration.  By  signing  an  election  form,  whose  execution  was 
necessary to elect to participate in the loyalty voting program, shareholders also agreed to be bound by the terms and 
conditions  thereof,  including  the  transfer  restrictions  described  below. The  terms  and  conditions  applicable  to  special 
voting shares are available on the Company’s website (www.cnhindustrial.com).

Following the completion of the Merger, CNH Industrial shareholders may at any time elect to participate in the loyalty 
voting program by requesting that CNH Industrial registers all or some of their CNH Industrial common shares in the 
Loyalty  Register.  If  these  CNH  Industrial  common  shares  have  been  registered  in  the  Loyalty  Register  (and  thus 
blocked from trading in the regular trading system) for an uninterrupted period of three years in the name of the same 
shareholder, such shares become eligible to receive special voting shares to be held with associated common shares 
(the  “Qualifying  Common  Shares”)  and  the  relevant  shareholder  will  be  entitled  to  hold  one  special  voting  share  for 
each  such  Qualifying  Common  Share  the  shareholder  continues  to  hold.  If  at  any  time  such  CNH  Industrial  common 
shares are de-registered from the Loyalty Register for whatever reason, the relevant shareholder shall lose his, her or 
its entitlement to hold a corresponding number of special voting shares.

A holder of Qualifying Common Shares may at any time request the de-registration of some or all such shares from the 
Loyalty Register, which will allow such shareholder to freely trade its CNH Industrial common shares. From the moment 
of such request, the holder of Qualifying Common Shares shall be considered to have waived his/her/its rights to cast 
any votes associated with the loyalty voting shares corresponding to its previously Qualifying Common Shares. Upon 
the  de-registration  from  the  Loyalty  Register,  the  relevant  common  shares  will  therefore  cease  to  be  Qualifying 
Common Shares. Any de-registration request would automatically trigger a mandatory transfer requirement pursuant to 
which the special voting shares will be surrendered to CNH Industrial for no consideration.

CNH  Industrial’s  common  shares  are  freely  transferable.  Special  voting  shares  are  not  admitted  to  listing  and  are 
transferable only in very limited circumstances and only along with the common shares to which they are associated. 
Any  transfer  of  common  shares  that  are  registered  on  the  Loyalty  Register  will  trigger  the  de-registration  of  such 
common shares from that register and any associated special voting shares will automatically be surrendered to CNH 
Industrial for no consideration.

Board Report   Corporate Governance    87

The  purpose  of  the  loyalty  voting  program  is  to  grant  long-term  CNH  Industrial  shareholders  an  extra  voting  right  as 
qualifying  shareholders  are  entitled  to  exercise  an  additional  vote  through  the  common  share  and  the  associated 
special  voting  share  held.  However,  under  Dutch  law,  the  special  voting  shares  cannot  be  excluded  from  economic 
entitlements. As a result, in accordance with the Articles of Association, holders of special voting shares are entitled to a 
minimum  dividend,  which  is  allocated  to  a  separate  special  dividend  reserve  (the  “Special  Dividend  Reserve”).  The 
distribution of dividends from the Special Dividend Reserve can only be approved by the general meeting of the holders 
of  special  voting  shares  upon  proposal  of  the  Board  of  Directors.  The  power  to  vote  upon  the  distribution  from  the 
Special Dividend Reserve is the only power that is granted to that meeting, which can only be convened by the Board of 
Directors  as  it  deems  necessary.  No  distribution  has  been  made  from  this  reserve. The  special  voting  shares  do  not 
have any other economic entitlement.

Section  10  of  the  special  voting  share  terms  and  conditions  includes  liquidated  damages  provisions  intended  to 
discourage  any  attempt  by  participants  in  the  loyalty  voting  program  to  violate  the  terms  thereof.  These  liquidated 
damages  provisions  may  be  enforced  by  CNH  Industrial  by  means  of  a  legal  action  brought  by  the  Company  in  the 
courts  of  the  Netherlands. A  violation  of  the  provisions  of  the  above-mentioned  terms  and  conditions  concerning  the 
transfer of special voting shares may lead to the imposition of liquidated damages.

Pursuant to Section 12 of the special voting share terms and conditions, any amendment to the terms and conditions 
(other than merely technical, non-material amendments) may only be made with the approval of the general meeting of 
shareholders of CNH Industrial.

A  shareholder  must  promptly  notify  CNH  Industrial  upon  the  occurrence  of  a  change  of  control,  which  is  defined  in 
Article  4(1)(n)  of  the Articles  of Association  as  including  any  direct  or  indirect  transfer,  carried  out  through  one  or  a 
series of related transactions, by a CNH Industrial shareholder that is not an individual of (i) the ownership or control of 
50% or more of the voting rights of such shareholder, (ii) the de facto ability to direct the casting of 50% or more of the 
votes which may be expressed at the general meetings of such shareholder, or (iii) the ability to appoint or remove half 
or more of the Directors, Executive Directors or Board members or executive officers of such shareholder or to direct 
the  casting  of  50%  or  more  of  the  voting  rights  at  meetings  of  the  Board,  governing  body  or  executive  committee  of 
such shareholder. In accordance with Article 4(1)(n) of the Articles of Association, no change of control shall be deemed 
to have occurred if (i) the transfer of ownership and/or control is the result of the succession or the liquidation of assets 
between spouses or the inheritance, inter vivos donation or other transfer to a spouse or a relative up to and including 
the  fourth  degree  or  (ii)  the  fair  market  value  of  the  Qualifying  Common  Shares  held  by  the  relevant  CNH  Industrial 
shareholder represents less than 20% of the total assets of the Transferred Group at the time of the transfer and the 
Qualifying Common Shares, in the sole judgment of CNH Industrial, are not otherwise material to the Transferred Group 
or  the  change  of  control  transaction.  Article  4(1)(n)  of  the  Articles  of  Association  defines  “Transferred  Group”  as 
comprising the relevant shareholder together with its affiliates, if any, over which control was transferred as part of the 
same change of control transaction, as such term in defined in Article 4(1)(n) of the Articles of Association. A change of 
control  will  trigger  the  de-registration  of  the  applicable  Qualifying  Common  Shares  from  the  Loyalty  Register  and  the 
suspension of the special voting rights attached to such Qualifying Common Shares.

DISCLOSURES PURSUANT TO DECREE IMPLEMENTING ARTICLE 10 EU-DIRECTIVE ON TAKEOVERS

stated in the Articles of Association of the Company. All members of the Board of Directors are appointed by the 
general  meeting  of  shareholders.  The  term  of  office  of  all  members  of  the  Board  of  Directors  is  for  a  period  of 
approximately  one  year  after  appointment,  such  period  expiring  on  the  day  the  first Annual  General  Meeting  of 
Shareholders is held in the following calendar year. The general meeting of shareholders has the power to dismiss 
any member of the Board of Directors at any time.

i)

j)

The  rules  governing  an  amendment  of  the  Articles  of  Association  are  stated  in  the  Articles  of  Association  and 
require a resolution of the general meeting of shareholders which can only be passed pursuant to a prior proposal 
of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The general powers of the Board of Directors are stated in the Articles of Association of the Company. For a period 
of five years from September 28, 2018, up to and including September 27, 2023, the Board of Directors has been 
irrevocably authorized by the shareholders at the AGM held on April 13, 2018 to issue special voting shares up to 
the maximum aggregate amount of special voting shares as provided for in the Company’s authorized share capital 
as set forth in Article 3, paragraph 1 of the Articles of Association. For a period of five years from April 13, 2018 up 
to and including April 12, 2023, the Board of Directors has been authorized by the shareholders at the AGM held on 
April 13, 2018 as authorized body to issue common shares and to grant rights to acquire common shares in the 
capital of the Company, which authorization is limited to: (i) the issuance of 15% of the total number of common 
shares issued in the capital of the Company as of April 14, 2018; (ii) an additional 15% of the issued share capital 
of the Company as per the same date in relation to mergers or acquisitions; and (iii) without application of the 15% 
limitation, issuance of common shares and grant of rights or options (and the ability to cancel such rights where 
necessary or appropriate) to subscribe for common shares in the capital of the Company in so far as this would be 
done to meet obligations resulting from and on the terms of the equity incentive plans of the Company. At the AGM 
held on April 13, 2018 for a period of five years starting from such date and therefore up to and including April 12, 
2023, the Board of Directors has been also authorized by the shareholders as authorized body to limit or exclude 
the  statutory  preemptive  rights  of  shareholders  in  connection  with  the  issuance  of  common  shares  or  rights  to 
acquire shares in the capital of the Company, pursuant the share issuance authorization described above. 

k) The  Board  of  Directors  is  authorized  to  acquire  special  voting  shares  in  the  capital  of  the  Company  for  no 
consideration. Further rules governing the acquisition of shares by the Company in its own share capital are set out 
in article 5 of the Articles of Association of the Company.

l)

The Company is not a party to any significant agreements which will take effect, will be altered or will be terminated 
upon  a  change  of  control  of  the  Company  as  a  result  of  a  public  offer  within  the  meaning  of  Section  5:70  of  the 
Dutch  Financial  Supervision  Act  (Wet  op  het  financieel  toezicht),  provided  that  some  of  the  loan  agreements 
guaranteed  by  the  Company  and  certain  bonds  guaranteed  by  the  Company  contain  clauses  that,  as  it  is 
customary for such financial transactions, may require early repayment or termination in the event of a change of 
control of the guarantor or the borrower. In certain cases, that requirement may only be triggered if the change of 
control event coincides with other conditions, such as a credit rating downgrade.

m) Under  the  terms  of  the  CNH  Industrial  EIP  and  the  terms  of  engagement  entered  into  with  certain  executive 
officers,  executives  may  be  entitled  to  receive  severance  payments  of  up  to  one  (1)  times  their  annual  cash 
compensation and accelerated vesting of awards under plans issued under the CNH Industrial EIP if, within twenty-
four  (24)  months  of  a  Change  of  Control  (as  defined  therein),  the  executive’s  employment  is  involuntarily 
terminated  (other  than  for  Cause  -as  defined  therein-)  by  the  relevant  entity  of  the  CNH  Industrial  group  or  is 
terminated by the participant for Good Reason (as defined therein).

If the Board of Directors fails to call a meeting, then such shareholders may, on their application, be authorized by the 
interim provisions judge of the court (voorzieningenrechter van de rechtbank); such judicial application shall be rejected 
in case the applicants have not previously requested the Board of Directors in writing, stating the exact subjects to be 
discussed, to convene a general meeting of shareholders.

must provide shareholders with details of the overriding interest. 

When  convening  a  general  meeting  of  shareholders,  the  Board  of  Directors  shall  determine  that,  for  the  purpose  of 
Article  18  and  Article  19  of  the  Articles  of  Association,  persons  with  the  right  to  vote  or  attend  meetings  shall  be 
considered  those  persons  who  have  these  rights  at  the  twenty-eighth  (28th)  day  prior  to  the  day  of  the  meeting  (the 
“Record Date”) and are registered as such in a register to be designated by the Board of Directors for such purpose, 
irrespective of whether they will have these rights at the date of the meeting. In addition to the Record Date, the notice 
of  the  meeting  shall  further  state  the  way  Company  shareholders  and  other  parties  with  meeting  rights  may  have 
themselves registered and the way those rights can be exercised. 

The  general  meeting  of  shareholders  shall  be  presided  over  by  the  Senior  Non-Executive  Director  or,  in  his/her 
absence, by the person chosen by the Board of Directors to act as chairperson for such meeting. 

One of the persons present designated for that purpose by the chairperson of the meeting shall act as secretary and 
take  minutes  of  the  business  transacted. The  minutes  shall  be  confirmed  by  the  chairperson  of  the  meeting  and  the 
secretary and signed by them in witness thereof. 

The minutes of the general meeting of shareholders shall be made available, on request, to the shareholders no later 
than three months after the end of the meeting, after which the shareholders shall have the opportunity to react to the 
minutes in the following three months. The minutes shall then be adopted in the manner as described in the preceding 
paragraph. 

If an official notarial record is made of the business transacted at the shareholders’ meeting, then minutes need not be 
drawn up and it shall suffice that the official notarial record be signed by the notary. Each Director shall always have 
power to give instructions for having an official notarial record made at the Company's expense. 

As a prerequisite to attending the meeting and, to the extent applicable, exercising voting rights, shareholders entitled 
to  attend  the  meeting  shall  be  obliged  to  inform  the  Board  of  Directors  in  writing  within  the  time  mentioned  in  the 
convening  notice.  At  the  latest,  this  notice  must  be  received  by  the  Board  of  Directors  on  the  day  specified  in  the 
convening notice. 

Shareholders and those permitted by law to attend the shareholders’ meeting may cause themselves to be represented 
at any meeting by a proxy duly authorized in writing, provided they shall notify the Company in writing of their wish to be 

Board Report   Corporate Governance    90

represented at such time and place as shall be stated in the notice of the meeting. For the avoidance of doubt, such 
attorney is also authorized in writing if the proxy is documented electronically. The Board of Directors may determine 
further rules concerning the deposit of the powers of attorney and any such additional rules shall be mentioned in the 
notice of the meeting. 

The Company, as a foreign private issuer, is  exempt from the  proxy rules under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act  of 
1934, as amended.

The chairperson of the meeting of shareholders shall decide on the admittance to the meeting of persons other than 
those who are entitled to attend. 

For  each  general  meeting  of  shareholders,  the  Board  of  Directors  may  decide  that  shareholders  shall  be  entitled  to 
attend, address and exercise voting rights at such meeting through electronic means of communication, provided that 
shareholders  who  participate  in  the  meeting  are  capable  of  being  identified  through  the  electronic  means  of 
communication  and  have  direct  cognizance  of  the  discussions  at  the  meeting  and  the  exercising  of  voting  rights  (if 
applicable). The Board of Directors may set requirements for the use of electronic means of communication and state 
these in the convening notice. Furthermore, the Board of Directors may for each meeting of shareholders decide that 
votes cast through electronic means of communication prior to the meeting and received by the Board of Directors shall 
be considered as cast at the meeting. Such votes may not be cast prior to the Record Date. Whether the provision of 
the foregoing sentence applies and the procedure for exercising the rights referred to in that sentence shall be stated in 
the notice. 

Prior to being allowed admittance to a meeting, a shareholder or its attorney shall sign an attendance list, stating his/
her/its  name  and,  to  the  extent  applicable,  the  number  of  votes  to  which  he/she/it  is  entitled.  Each  shareholder 
attending a meeting through electronic means of communication and identified in accordance with the above shall be 
registered on the attendance list by the Board of Directors. Should the above involve an attorney of a shareholder, the 
name(s) of the person(s) on whose behalf the attorney is acting shall also be stated. The chairperson of the meeting 
may decide that the attendance list must also be signed by other persons present at the meeting. 

The chairperson of the meeting may determine the time for which shareholders and others who are permitted to attend 
the general meeting of shareholders may speak if he/she considers this desirable with a view to the orderly conduct of 
the meeting. 

Every share (whether common or special voting) shall confer the right to cast one vote. 

Shares  in  respect  of  which  the  law  determines  that  no  votes  may  be  cast  shall  be  disregarded  for  the  purposes  of 
determining the proportion of shareholders voting, present or represented or the proportion of the share capital provided 
or represented. 

All resolutions shall be passed with an absolute majority of the votes validly cast unless otherwise specified. 

Blank votes shall not be counted as votes cast. 

All votes shall be cast in writing or electronically. The chairperson of the meeting may, however, determine that voting 
by raising hands or in another manner shall be permitted. 

Voting by acclamation shall be permitted if none of the shareholders present objects. 

No voting rights shall be exercised in the general meeting of shareholders for shares owned by the Company or by a 
subsidiary of the Company. Usufructuaries of shares owned by the Company and its subsidiaries shall however not be 
excluded from exercising their voting rights, if the usufruct was created before the shares were owned by the Company 
or a subsidiary. 

Without prejudice to the other provisions of the Articles of Association, the Company shall determine for each resolution 
passed: 

a)

b)

c)

d)

the number of shares on which valid votes have been cast;

the percentage that the number of shares as referred to under a. represents in the issued share capital;

the aggregate number of votes validly cast; and

the aggregate number of votes cast in favor of and against a resolution, as well as the number of abstentions. 

GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS 

At least one general meeting of Company shareholders shall be held every year, within six months after the close of the 
prior  financial  year,  upon  calling  alternatively  by  the  Board  of  Directors,  the  Chairperson,  the  Senior  Non-Executive 
Director or the Chief Executive Officer. In addition, the Board of Directors, the Chair, the Senior Non-Executive Director 
or the Chief Executive Officer are entitled to convene a general meeting when deemed necessary. 

The agenda of the Annual General Meeting held on April 13, 2022 included:

•

•

the adoption of the 2021 annual financial statements;

•

•

the remuneration report;

re-appointment of the executive directors and (re)-appointment of the non-executive directors;

re-appointment of independent auditor for 2022 and appointment of independent auditor for 2023;

ISSUANCE OF SHARES

The general meeting of shareholders or alternatively the Board of Directors, if it has been designated to do so by the 
general  meeting  of  shareholders,  shall  have  authority,  for  no  longer  than  five  years,  to  resolve  on  any  issuance  of 
shares and on the conditions thereof. The general meeting of shareholders shall, for as long as any such designation of 
the Board of Directors for this purpose is in force, no longer have authority to decide on the issuance of shares. 

The  designation  may  be  extended  from  time  to  time  for  periods  not  exceeding  five  years  and  may  not  be  withdrawn 
unless otherwise provided in the resolution in which the designation is made.

If  the  Board  of  Directors  is  designated  to  have  authority  to  decide  on  the  issuance  of  shares,  such  designation  shall 
specify  the  class  of  shares  and  the  maximum  number  of  shares  that  can  be  issued  under  such  designation.  When 
making such designation the duration thereof shall be resolved upon at the same time. 

The AGM held on April 13, 2018:

•

•

irrevocably  authorized  the  Board  of  Directors  to  issue  special  voting  shares  up  to  the  maximum  aggregate 
amount  of  special  voting  shares  as  provided  for  in  the  Company’s  authorized  share  capital  from  September 
28, 2018, up to and including September 27, 2023;

authorized the Board of Directors to issue common shares and to grant rights to acquire common shares in the 
capital of the Company, from April 13, 2018, up to and including April 12, 2023, limited to: (i) the issuance of 
15% of the total number of common shares issued in the capital of the Company as of April 14, 2018; (ii) an 
additional  15%  of  the  issued  share  capital  of  the  Company  as  per  the  same  date  in  relation  to  mergers  or 
acquisitions; and (iii) without application of the 15% limitation, issuance of common shares and grant of rights 
or  options  (and  the  ability  to  cancel  such  rights  where  necessary  or  appropriate)  to  subscribe  for  common 
shares in the capital of the Company in so far as this would be done to meet obligations resulting from and on 
the terms of the equity incentive plans of the Company.

In the event of an issuance of common shares, every holder of common shares shall have a right of pre-emption with 
regard  to  the  shares  to  be  issued  of  that  class  in  proportion  to  the  aggregate  amount  of  his  shares  of  that  class; 
provided,  however,  that  no  such  right  of  pre-emption  shall  exist  in  respect  of  shares  to  be  issued  to  Directors  or 
employees of the Company or of a group company pursuant to any Company equity incentive or compensation plan. 

The  right  of  pre-emption  may  be  limited  or  excluded  by  a  resolution  of  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  or  a 
resolution  of  the  Board  of  Directors  if  it  has  been  designated  to  do  so  by  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  and 
provided the Board of Directors has also been authorized to resolve on the issuance of shares of the company. 

At the AGM held on April 13, 2018, for a period of five years starting from such date and therefore up to and including 
April 12, 2023, the Board of Directors has been authorized by the shareholders as authorized body to limit or exclude 
the statutory preemptive rights of shareholders in connection with the issuance of common shares or rights to acquire 
shares in the capital of the Company, pursuant to the share issuance authorization described above. 

A shareholder shall have no right of pre-emption for shares that are issued against a non-cash contribution. 

In the event of an issuance of special voting shares to Qualifying Shareholders, shareholders shall not have any right of 
pre-emption. 

Either the general meeting of shareholders or the Board of Directors, shall decide when passing the resolution to issue 
shares in which manner and, subject to paragraph 3  of Article  6 of the Articles of Association, within what period the 
right of pre-emption may be exercised.

CULTURE

The Board is responsible for creating and fostering a culture aimed at long-term value creation for the Group and all its 
stakeholders,  operating  in  compliance  with  all  applicable  laws  and  consistent  with  the  Company’s  values  and 
expectations.  Accordingly,  to  clarify  and  make  explicit  the  Company’s  values  and  expectations,  in  2014  the  Board 
adopted  the  Company’s  code  of  conduct  (which  was  renewed  and  updated  in  2019,  the  “Code  of  Conduct”)  and  the 
Company  issued  its  Supplier  Code  of  Conduct,  both  of  which  are  discussed  below.  In  addition,  the  Company 
established  a  compliance  and  ethics  program  that  is  overseen  by  the  Global  Compliance  and  Ethics  Committee 
(“GCEC”),  including  the:  Chief  Executive  Officer,  Chief  Financial  Officer,  head  of  Internal  Audit,  Chief  Legal  and 
Compliance  Officer,  Chief  Information  Officer,  President  of  the  Financial  Services  segment,  head  of  the  Human 
Resources function, and Chief Strategy, Talent, ICT and Digital Officer. The GCEC meets at least quarterly to, among 
other  things,  review  and  discuss  compliance  and  ethics  trends  and  topics,  review  and  discuss  compliance  risk 
assessments, discuss compliance-related training to be deployed, consider the need for new or modified compliance-
related  corporate  policies,  and  review  matters  submitted  to  the  Company’s  Compliance  Helpline  (see  below)  and 
related  investigations.  The  extent  to  which  each  employee  complies  with  and  promotes  such  culture  and  values  is 
assessed each year through, among other things, the Company’s performance assessment process. 

CODE OF CONDUCT

The Company periodically reviews and updates the Code of Conduct to ensure it is consistent with applicable laws and 
best practices. The Code of Conduct forms an integral part of the internal control system and sets out the principles of 
business ethics to which CNH Industrial adheres and which Directors, officers, employees, consultants, and business 
“partners”  are  required  to  observe.  The  Code  of  Conduct  covers  topics  such  as  the  environment,  health  and  safety, 
antitrust/competition,  anti-corruption,  data  privacy,  management  of  human  resources,  communities,  and  respect  of 
human rights.

In addition, in 2015 the Company issued its Supplier Code of Conduct, which includes the Company’s guidelines and 
expectations  for  suppliers  regarding  such  areas  as  labor  and  human  rights,  the  environment,  trade  restrictions  and 
export controls, business ethics and anti-corruption, and reporting matters to the Company.

The  Code  of  Conduct  is  available  in  19  languages  on  the  Corporate  Governance  section  of  the  Company’s  website, 
(www.cnhindustrial.com), and on the Company's intranet site. 

The Supplier Code of Conduct is available on the Suppliers section of the Company’s website and on the Company's 
intranet site and is available in nine languages.

The Group’s Code of Conduct is supplemented by additional corporate policies, guidelines and procedures that provide 
greater detail than is contained in the Code of Conduct. Corporate policies cover areas of higher risk given the nature 
and  extent  of  the  Company’s  business  such  as:  conflicts  of  interest,  bribery  and  corruption,  antitrust/competition  law, 
international trade compliance, and data privacy.

RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS

CNH  Industrial  respects  and  promotes  human  rights  in  line  with  national  laws,  the  fundamental  Conventions  of  the 
International Labour Organization (ILO), the UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the OECD Guidelines for 
Multinational Enterprises. In addition to setting out principles of professional conduct, the Company’s Code of Conduct 
also underscores the importance of respect for the individual.

The  Company  is  committed  to  ensuring  respect  for  fundamental  human  rights  wherever  it  operates  and  seeks  to 
promote respect for these principles by others where it has an influence, particularly among contractors, suppliers, and 
other entities and individuals with whom it has a business relationship. The Company will not establish or continue a 
relationship with an entity or individual that refuses to respect the principles of its Code of Conduct.

COMMUNITY RELATIONS

As stated in the Code of Conduct, CNH Industrial is aware of the potential direct and indirect impact of its decisions on 
the  communities  in  which  it  operates.  For  this  reason,  the  Company  promotes  an  open  dialogue  to  ensure  that  the 
legitimate  expectations  of  local  communities  are  taken  into  consideration,  and  voluntarily  endorses  projects  and 
activities that encourage their economic, social, and cultural development. Moreover, CNH Industrial acts in a socially 
responsible manner by respecting the culture and traditions of each country, and by operating with integrity to earn the 
trust of the community.

The individual Segments or brands, in consultation with local management, decide which projects to support based on 
actual local needs, maximizing open dialogue with local stakeholders, and collecting their suggestions for improvement. 
They also decide whether to act directly or through partnerships with local institutions and organizations working in the 
social sphere.

The  CNH  Industrial  Community  Investment  Policy,  available  on  the  Company's  website,  ensures  that  activities  are 
managed consistently, identifying methods, and defining areas of application at a global level. 

Board Report   Corporate Governance    93

In 2021, resources allocated by CNH Industrial to communities were valued at approximately $8.74 million.

In addition, CNH Industrial strives to respond rapidly to the needs of people affected by natural disasters. The Company 
channels  resources  (vehicles  and  financial  and  technical  support)  to  aid  impacted  communities,  and  coordinates 
employees who want to voluntarily assist in relief efforts.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS POLICY

The Company adopted a Related Party Transactions Policy to ensure that all the transactions with related parties (as 
defined in compliance with IAS 24 and ASC 850) shall be subject to proper review, approval or ratification, as the case 
may be, in accordance with certain procedures set forth by the Company to ensure full transparency and substantive 
and procedural fairness.

INSIDER TRADING POLICY

The Board of Directors adopted an Insider Trading Policy setting forth guidelines and recommendations to all Directors, 
officers  and  employees  of  the  CNH  Industrial  Group  with  respect  to  transactions  in  CNH  Industrial’s  securities  or  the 
securities  of  any  third  party  to  the  extent  that  such  person  acquires  material  non-public  information  in  relation  to  that 
third party, or the financial instruments of that third party, as a result of such person’s employment with, or service to, 
the  CNH  Industrial  Group.  This  policy,  which  also  applies  to  immediate  family  members  and  members  of  the 
households of persons covered by the policy, is designed to prevent insider trading or allegations of insider trading, and 
to protect CNH Industrial’s reputation for integrity and ethical conduct.

The  Insider  Trading  Policy  is  available  on  the  Corporate  Governance  section  of  the  Company’s  website, 
www.cnhindustrial.com. 

MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (MAR)

The regulatory framework on market abuse is laid down in the Market Abuse Directive (2014/57/EU) as implemented in 
Dutch law and the Market Abuse Regulation (No. 596/2014, the “MAR”) which is directly applicable in the Netherlands.

Pursuant to the MAR, no natural or legal person is permitted to: (a) engage or attempt to engage in insider dealing in 
financial  instruments  listed  on  a  regulated  market  or  for  which  a  listing  has  been  requested,  such  as  the  shares,  (b) 
recommend that another person engages in insider dealing or induce another person to engage in insider dealing or (c) 
unlawfully disclose inside information relating to the shares or the Company. Furthermore, no person may engage in or 
attempt to engage in market manipulation.

“Inside  Information”  is  any  information  of  a  precise  nature  relating  (directly  or  indirectly)  to  the  Company,  or  to  the 
shares in the Company or other financial instruments, which information has not been made public and which, if it were 
made  public,  would  be  likely  to  have  an  effect  on  the  price  of  the  shares  or  the  other  financial  instruments  or  on  the 
price of related derivative financial instruments (i.e., information a reasonable investor would be likely to use as part of 
the  basis  of  his  or  her  investment  decision). An  intermediate  step  in  a  protracted  process  can  also  be  deemed  to  be 
inside information.

Furthermore, in the field of prevention of insider dealing, MAR reiterates the notification regime in place for managers’ 
transactions  involving  issuer’s  securities.  Under  the  MAR,  a  person  discharging  managerial  responsibilities  (“PDMR”) 
and  persons  closely  associated  with  them  must  notify  the  issuers  and  the  national  competent  authority  of  every 
transaction conducted on their own account relating to the shares or debt instruments of that issuer, or to derivatives or 
other  financial  instruments  linked  to  those  shares  or  debt  instruments.  Such  notifications  pursuant  to  the  MAR 
described  must  be  made  to  the  AFM  and  the  Company  no  later  than  the  third  business  day  following  the  relevant 
transaction date. 

DISCLOSURE OF INSIDE INFORMATION

Inside Information, as defined under MAR, is crucial for CNH Industrial since EU rules set forth a clear obligation upon 
the issuers to make any Inside Information public as soon as possible and in a manner that enables fast access and 
complete, correct and timely assessment of the information. 

The above disclosure requirement shall be complied with through the publication of a press release in accordance with 
the modalities set forth under MAR disclosing to the public the relevant Inside Information. 

However,  the  Company  may  defer  the  publication  of  inside  information  if  it  can  guarantee  the  confidentiality  of  the 
information. Such deferral is only possible if the publication thereof could damage the Company’s legitimate interests 
and  if  the  deferral  does  not  risk  misleading  the  market.  If  the  Company  makes  use  of  this  deferral  right,  it  needs  to 
inform  the  CONSOB  thereof  as  soon  as  that  information  is  made  public.  Upon  request  of  the  CONSOB,  a  written 
explanation needs to be provided setting out why a delay of the publication was considered permitted. The Company is 
required to post and maintain on its website all inside information for a period of at least five years.

Board Report   Corporate Governance    94

INSIDERS LISTS

Pursuant to Article 18 of the MAR, CNH Industrial as well as persons acting on its behalf or for its account, shall draw 
up in accordance with a precise electronic format and keep regularly updated, a list of persons who, in the exercise of 
their employment, profession or duties, have access to Inside Information. CNH Industrial shall transmit the Insider list 
to the relevant competent authority, upon its request.

PUBLIC TENDER OFFERS AND PRIVATE BIDS

Any  offer  launched  for  CNH  Industrial’s  common  shares  (and/or  for  financial  instruments  linked  to  such  common 
shares) and bonds with respect to both voluntary and mandatory public tender offers shall be managed in compliance 
with  applicable  laws  and  regulations,  relevant  provisions  and  with  any  requirement  imposed  by/or  subject  to  national 
relevant authority’s supervision, in particular, among other things, the provisions concerning the tender offer price, the 
content of the offer document and the disclosure of the tender offer.

If  and  when  occurring,  CNH  Industrial  will  respond  appropriately  to  any  potential  future  private  bid  considering  the 
circumstances of such matter at the relevant time.

SUSTAINABILITY PRACTICES

CNH  Industrial  is  committed  to  operating  in  an  environmentally  and  socially-responsible  manner,  creating  long-term 
value  for  all  its  stakeholders.  For  this  purpose,  the  Company  has  a  robust  Governance  model,  to  manage  all  its 
operations in an ethical and transparent way. Sustainability in CNH Industrial is a way of doing business and it involves 
every area, function and employee within the organization.

The  main  tools  of  the  sustainability  management  system  are:  the  materiality  analysis,  which  defines  social  and 
environmental  priorities;  approximately  200  KPIs,  which  are  used  to  help  monitor  sustainability  performance;  the 
Sustainability Plan, which tracks commitments; and the annual Sustainability Report.

For  further  details  see  the  previous  section  on  “Our  Commitment  to  Sustainable  Development  and  Long-term  Value 
Creation”.

COMPLIANCE WITH DUTCH CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODE

While  CNH  Industrial  endorses  the  principles  and  best  practice  provisions  of  the  DCGC,  its  current  corporate 
governance structure deviates from the following best practice provisions, only with respect to minor aspects as follows:

▪ Under  best  practice  provision  5.1.3,  the  chairman  of  the  management  board  should  be  an  independent  Director. 
CNH Industrial has adopted a one-tier governance structure with two Executive Directors and, in accordance with 
section  14(2)  of  the Articles  of Association,  the  Board  has  granted  to  them,  respectively,  the  title  of  ‘Chair’  and 
‘Chief Executive Officer’. The Board has entrusted to an independent Director the duties attributed by the DCGC to 
the chairman of the management board in one-tier companies (or to the chairman of the supervisory board in two-
tier  companies).  The  Board  has  granted  to  such  independent  Director  the  title  of  ‘Senior  Non-Executive 
Director’ (so as to distinguish such Director from the Chairperson of the Company, who is an Executive Director). 
As a consequence, despite the difference in corporate titles, the Company believes it complies with best practice 
provision 5.1.3, as the current Senior Non-Executive Director satisfies the requirements described in best practice 
provision 5.1.3 of the DCGC. 

▪ CNH  Industrial  deviates  from  best  practice  provision  2.3.4  in  that  the  Senior  Non-Executive  Director  (who  is 
independent) is the chairman of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee, whereas the DCGC provides 
that  the  person  who  chairs  the  board  meeting  should  not  assume  the  role  of  chairman  of  the  remuneration 
committee.  The  Company  believes  that  such  duplication  of  role  enhances  the  effectiveness  of  the  Senior  Non-
Executive Director and is consistent with the intent of best practice provision 2.3.4.

▪ The Board has not appointed a vice-chairman in the sense of best practice provision 2.3.7 of the DCGC. Since the 
Company  adopted  a  one-tier  governance  structure  with  a  single  management  board  comprised  of  Executive 
Directors and Non-Executive Directors, the Board has granted the title of ‘Chairperson’ to one Executive Director 
and designated as ‘Senior Non-Executive Director’ one of the Non-Executive Directors. The Senior Non-Executive 
Director  is  responsible  for  the  proper  functioning  of  the  Board  of  Directors  and  its  Committees.  Furthermore,  the 
Board  Regulations  provide  that  in  the  absence  of  the  Senior  Non-Executive  Director  any  other  Non-Executive 
Director  chosen  by  a  majority  of  the  Directors  present  at  a  meeting  shall  preside  at  meetings  of  the  Board  of 
Directors. The Company considers the above sufficient to ensure that the role and function assigned by the DCGC 
to the vice-chairman is properly discharged.

▪ Pursuant to best practice provision 4.1.8 of the DCGC, every Executive and Non-Executive Director nominated for 
appointment should attend the Annual General Meeting at which votes will be cast on his/her nomination. Since, 
pursuant  to  the  Articles  of  Association,  the  term  of  office  of  Directors  is  approximately  one  year,  such  period 
expiring  on  the  day  the  first Annual  General  Meeting  of  Company  shareholders  is  held  in  the  following  calendar 
year,  all  members  of  the  Board  of  Directors  are  nominated  for  (re)appointment  each  year.  By  publishing  the 

Board Report   Corporate Governance    95

relevant biographical details and curriculum vitae of each nominee for (re)appointment, the Company ensures that 
the  Company's  general  meeting  of  shareholders  is  well  informed  in  respect  of  the  nominees  for  (re)appointment 
and  in  practice  only  the  Executive  Directors,  and  Non-Executive  Directors  nominated  for  the  first  time  for 
appointment to the Board, will therefore attend the Annual General Meeting.

▪ The Company does not have a retirement schedule as referred to in paragraph 2.2.4 of the DCGC. Pursuant to the 
Articles of Association, the term of office of Directors is approximately one year, such period expiring on the day the 
first Annual General Meeting of Company shareholders is held in the following calendar year. This approach is in 
line with the general practice for companies listed in the U.S.. As the Company is listed on the NYSE, it also relies 
on  certain  U.S.  governance  requirements  and  practices,  one  of  which  is  the  reappointment  of  Directors  at  each 
Annual General Meeting of Company shareholders.

Statement by the Board of Directors 

Based on the assessment performed, the Board of Directors believes that, as of December 31, 2022, the Group’s and 
the Company’s Internal Control over Financial Reporting is considered effective and that (i) the Board Report provides 
sufficient insights into any material weakness in the effectiveness of the internal risk management and control systems. 
This  is  discussed  in  section  “Internal  Control  System”;  (ii)  the  internal  risk  management  and  control  systems  are 
designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial reporting does not contain any material inaccuracies. This

Compensation Discussion & Analysis

This  Compensation  Discussion  & Analysis  (“CD&A”)  provides  our  shareholders  and  other  stakeholders  with  information 
about  CNH  Industrial’s  performance,  compensation  framework,  compensation  decisions  and  associated  governance  for 
our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”) in 2022. Notwithstanding its status as a foreign private issuer, CNH Industrial, as 
part  of  a  commitment  to  transparency  and  shareholder  engagements,  has  voluntarily  chosen  to  include  a  CD&A  that 
combines  the  disclosures  required  under  Dutch  law  and  the  Dutch  Corporate  Governance  Code  (“DCGC”)    in  the 
remuneration section of our annual report, with the disclosure of information required to U.S. domestic filers (for example, 
the compensation of certain executive officers who are not members of our Board).

Year in Review

Performance Highlights

In 2022, CNH Industrial delivered record results, while overcoming supply chain pressures and increased product costs. 
In its first year as a pure player in Agriculture and Construction, CNH Industrial achieved full year consolidated revenue of 
$23,551 million (up 20.8% year over year), net income of $2,039 million (up 13.2% year over year), and combined gross 
profit margins of 22.0% for our Agriculture and Construction businesses. 

As importantly, the Company’s focused execution on key strategic priorities under the leadership of Mr. Wine has reaped 
considerable value for its shareholders, such as:

• The  simplification  of  the  Company’s  portfolio  transformed  CNH  Industrial  in  a  pure  player  in  the  Agriculture  and 

Construction businesses.

• The absolute total shareholder return (“TSR”) for CNH Industrial kept pace with the S&P 500 Industrial index in 2022 

and outpaced it over the past three and five years.  

• The acquisitions of Raven and Sampierana have broadened our product and services offering, enhancing capabilities 
in  precision  agriculture  technology  for  the  Agriculture  segment  and  key  excavator  products  for  the  Construction 
Equipment segment, respectively. 

• CNH Industrial returned nearly $600 million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.

Since Mr. Wine joined the company as its CEO in early January 2021, and through December 31, 2022, cumulative TSR 
reached 48% compared to 5% for the S&P 500 and 14% for the S&P 500 Industrials.

The above results, overseen by Mr. Wine and achieved through contributions across our leadership team and Company 
as a whole, demonstrate the value of the investments made in our talent over recent years and the effectiveness of our 
NEOs. 

Furthermore,  Mr.  Wine  holds  639,119  shares  whose  value  as  of  December  31,  2022  exceeds  the  five-times  multiple  of 
base salary under his share ownership guidelines which was required within five years of hire, as he personally invested 
in the Company’s stock to reach the guideline before his second anniversary.  The CEO purchased 200,000 shares of the 
Company’s  common  shares  in  2021  and  a  further  150,000  shares  in  2022  and  held  100%  of  the  289,119  shares  that 
vested in 2022, electing not to sell any shares to cover tax withholding and paying cash instead. Mr. Wine’s investment of 
his  own  money  in  the  Company’s  stock  constitutes  a  strong  testament  of  the  alignment  between  Mr.  Wine’s  and  the 
shareholders’ interests, during his tenure. The Company’s stock ownership policy and executive compensation practices 
ensure that this alignment with shareholders’ interests will continue over time.  

Our  executive  compensation  framework  is  designed  to  continue  to  align  and  promote  the  alignment  of  pay  and 
performance to the benefit of our shareholders. 

Aligning Pay and Performance

Our  business  strategy  is  focused  on  enhancing  our  culture,  continuously  improving  our  productivity,  and  relentlessly 
innovating  to  drive  profitable  growth  for  our  customers,  employees,  shareholders  and  all  stakeholders.  CNH  Industrial’s 
compensation program is designed to motivate our employees to execute this strategy.  

Under the leadership of Mr. Wine, CNH Industrial’s financial and operational results, including all of the metrics linked to 
incentive pay, have not only sequentially increased but have also exceeded the challenging 2022 goals validated by both 
the HCC Committee and the Board of Directors. Based on the Scorecard summarized below and detailed further in the 
balance of this CD&A, the Company performance payout factor in respect of 2022 performance was 145.89% of target.

While no performance-based equity awards vested during fiscal 2022, fiscal 2022 results contribute favorably to the three-
year cumulative adjusted EPS, average Industrial ROIC and relative TSR goals attached to PSUs granted in 2021 and 
2022.  

The  NEOs’  remuneration  in  2022  was  consistent  with  the  Company’s  performance  and  achievement  of  its  strategic 
objectives.  In the Pay versus Performance (“PvP”) section, we elaborate on performance trends for the key metrics and 
the trends in the CEO compensation and the average of the other NEO’s compensation.

CEO Compensation

Mr. Wine was appointed as CEO of CNH Industrial in 2021, and under his leadership the Company has achieved results 
that have improved year-over-year, exceeding goals and expectations in a challenging operating environment. At the time 
of  his  appointment,  the  HCC  Committee  established  a  market-informed  total  target  compensation  package  that  would 
remain  locked  for  five  years,  meaning  that  regardless  of  performance  there  would  be  no  increase  in  Mr.  Wine’s  base 
salary,  target  annual  incentive  or  target  equity  incentive  grant  value.  Furthermore,  there  is  no  individual  performance 
upside  on  his  bonus  payout;  in  other  words,  100%  of  the  bonus  payout  is  exclusively  linked  to  Company  performance 
relative to objective, quantifiable goals. Over 90% of Mr. Wine’s target compensation is variable in nature, whereas 70% of 
his  target  compensation  is  in  equity  grants  that  must  be  held  for  a  minimum  of  five  years  following  the  date  of  grant, 
further solidifying long-term shareholder alignment.

Mr. Wine’s annual incentive payout is based solely on CNH Industrial’s company performance payout factor, which itself 
comprises objective quantitative performance goals. Based on the achievements summarized above and detailed further 
in the CD&A, Mr. Wine earned an annual incentive equivalent to 145.89% of target for 2022.

At the time of his appointment and as disclosed in previous Remuneration Reports, the HCC Committee also approved 
the necessary cash and equity-based payments to secure Mr. Wine’s appointment. These payments are customary when 
companies intend to attract high-caliber candidates and are intended to replace the compensation that such candidates 
would be forfeiting with their prior employers. In the case of Mr. Wine such payments had exactly this rationale and were 
structured to emphasize performance-based equity. This maximized the immediate alignment of his interests with those of 
our shareholders, other executives, employees more broadly and all of our stakeholders. To address feedback from our 
shareholders, we have again included a summary of these payments, with additional detail on the various components. 
This can be found in the “New Hire” section of the CD&A. 

Key HCC Committee Activities

In 2022, the HCC Committee approved adjustments to the 2021-2023 long-term incentive (“LTI”) awards due to the impact 
of the Demerger. As disclosed in the Company’s 2021 report, an equitable adjustment to the number of outstanding LTI 
awards was approved given the change in the Company’s capital structure. Additionally, the HCC Committee approved 
revised  performance  goals  for  the  outstanding  three-year  PSUs  (2021-2023)  to  account  for  the  Company’s  reduced 
perimeter of operations. The new goals are disclosed in detail in the Equity Incentives section of the CD&A.

Compensation Design

Compensation Philosophy

CNH Industrial’s vision to sustainably advance the noble work of global agricultural and construction workers is supported 
by a culture that drives long-term results for all shareholders and stakeholders, including our customers and employees. 
To  effectively  deliver  on  this  vision  in  our  large,  global  and  complex  company  as  evidenced  through  the  geographic 
dispersion  of  our  customers,  employees  and  operations,  we  need  to  attract  and  retain  highly  qualified  leaders  who  are 
aligned with the Company’s commitments and are effective operators in intricate multinational matrix organizations. Our 
compensation philosophy and programs are designed to instill a strong performance culture through pay for performance, 
rigorous performance management and Company goal-aligned incentives.

Strategic Alignment

Five  priorities  underpin  CNH  Industrial’s  strategic  roadmap  and  are  reflected  across  our  compensation  programs.  The 
measures  that  we  use  to  determine  compensation  under  our  compensation  programs,  in  particular  with  respect  to  our 
annual bonus and PSU awards, seek to align our NEO’s compensation with our commitment to drive results for all of our 
stakeholders.

Compensation Governance

Role of the HCC Committee

Apply  a  five-year  holding  period  to  CEO  equity  awards 
from the date of grant
Encourage  prudent  risk  taking  and  design  programs  that 
do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk
Apply compensation caps to incentive outcomes (200% of 
target)  and  permit  no  payout 
for  performance  below 
threshold
Prohibit guaranteed compensation and loans for NEOs
Avoid excessive compensation practices
Engage with our shareholders to inform decision making

The HCC Committee is comprised of four directors, three of whom are independent, and is responsible for oversight of 
executive  compensation,  the  Company’s  remuneration  policy,  compensation  of  non-executive  directors,  and  broader 
human capital management matters, in accordance with Dutch laws  and the DCGC.

In undertaking its role, the HCC Committee has continued interaction with the CEO, Executive Chair and other members 
of the senior leadership team, including the CHRO and Head of Total Rewards. No individual is present when the HCC 
Committee considers and discusses matters concerning such individual’s compensation. The Company also engages a 
compensation  consultant,  Willis  Towers  Watson  (“WTW”),  who  routinely  provides  support  to  the  HCC  Committee  upon 
request, across a broad range of compensation matters, inclusive of peer group development, market benchmarking and 
incentive compensation design. The HCC Committee invites WTW to attend meetings at their discretion.

Shareholder Engagement

An important input in the HCC Committee’s discussions and review of CNH Industrial’s compensation practices are the 
views of our shareholders. 

While a majority of our shareholders are supportive of our approach to executive compensation, as evidenced by the fact 
that  69.8%  of  shares  advised  positively  in  relation  to  our  remuneration  report  at  our  2022  annual  general  meeting,  a 
minority of shareholders did not support the application of our remuneration policy in 2021.

To better understand shareholders’ perspectives on our executive compensation programs, in 2022, we engaged with a 
sizable number of our largest shareholders in conversations on executive compensation, governance and sustainability, 
who  provided  valuable  insights.   The  outreach  effort  was  led  by  Mr.  Houle,  Chair  of  the  HCC  Committee,  and  included 
members of our Executive Compensation, Legal and Compliance and Investor Relations teams. The following is what we 
heard and provided clarity on: 

Board Report   Remuneration Report    104

What We Heard

CNH Industrial Response

Lack of details regarding the 
CEO’s go-forward equity 
grant opportunity as a result 
of the transition to annual 
awards

Request for further 
information regarding the 
level of the CEO’s 
compensation and the 
potential maximum payouts

We have sought to enhance the clarity of our compensation disclosures in this year’s CD&A

CNH  Industrial  prides  itself  on  the  fact  that  the  majority  of  NEO  compensation  is  at-risk  variable  pay 
(73% for our CEO and an average of 59% for our other NEOs), delivered through annual bonus and 
PSUs.
The  majority  of  at-risk  variable  pay  is  delivered  in  CNH  Industrial  equity  in  the  form  of  PSUs  whose 
value: i) will depend only on achievement of pre-set goals closely aligned with shareholders’ interests 
and  ii)  will  vary  based  on  our  performance  relative  to  pre-set  goals  and  CNH  Industrial’s  stock  price 
performance between the grant date and vesting date.
With  the  RSU  element  of  pay,  which  has  the  function  of  retaining  very  effective  leadership,  the  CEO 
has  70%  of  his  target  compensation  tied  to  equity,  which  further  ties  this  portion  of  CEO’s 
compensation to shareholders’ interests.
As  a  result  of  our  exceptional  performance  over  the  last  two  years,  the  equity  incentives  awarded  in 
2021  (2020  for  NEOs)  are  currently  expected  to  achieve  the  maximum  predetermined  performance 
goals  ,  and  will  reflect  our  stock  price  appreciation  over  that  period  to  the  extent  2023  performance 
reflects our current expectations.
While this combined with the shares appreciation, may result in potential values that are much higher 
than the fair values as of the grant date, this possibility reflects our alignment of pay and performance 
as well as the favorable effects of our leadership’s actions on our long-term shareholders, who over the 
same period have benefited from strong stock price returns and robust return of cash initiatives (buy 
back and dividends).
Mr. Wine’s total compensation package was fixed on appointment and will not increase prior to 2026, 
during  which  time  the  overhand/surplus  to  market  median  will  reduce,  and  while  this  compensation 
package is in the upper percentile relative to our compensation peer group, the HCC Committee and 
the  Board  determined  this  pay  package  was  necessary  to  secure  Mr.  Wine’s  appointment  (also  to 
compensate him for the forfeited compensation package at his previous company) and was in the best 
interests of our shareholders, employees and broader stakeholders

Several shareholders expressed an interest in seeing CNH Industrial adopt ESG performance measures in our long-term 
incentives, to supplement our market-leading use of CO2 Emission reduction and Accident Frequency goals in the annual 
cash  incentive  plan.  Market  data  from  S&P  500  companies  and  peer  group  show  specific  and  weighted  ESG  in  LTI 
metrics in the industrial sector are uncommon. ESG priorities are reflected in sustainability stewardship being a top five 
strategic initiative while safety is a top five employee area, and we cascade the ESG goals to LTI participants. We believe 
in  embedding  the  sustainability  measures  at  the  individual  level  to  reinforce  their  priority  and  impact  results  across  the 
board. The HCC Committee will reconsider this feedback in future reviews of the incentive framework.

As  an  international  company,  with  a  global  shareholder  base,  we  believe  that  it  is  important  for  us  to  understand  and 
consider  the  diverse  views  of  our  shareholders  and  other  stakeholders,  which  we  seek  to  balance  when  reaching 
decisions on compensation.  Through various forms and levels of engagement, we have solicited input from shareholders 
with  ownership  combined  interests  surpassing  40%  in  aggregate  (including  Exor  excluding  special  voting  rights).  CNH 
Industrial  remains  committed  to  maintaining  an  ongoing  dialogue  with  our  major  stakeholders  and  reaching  out  to 
shareholders to consider their views on the compensation formulation process.

Use of Market Data

The  Company  periodically  benchmarks  its  executive  and  NEO  compensation  programs  utilizing  a  pre-approved  peer 
group. In 2022, the HCC Committee approved a revised peer group, which reflects CNH Industrial’s diverse business and 
revenues,  the  completion  of  the  Demerger  ,  and  the  associated  impact  on  CNH  Industrial’s  size  and  primary  industry 
classification (the “2022 Compensation Peer Group”).

While  CNH  Industrial  is  headquartered  in  Europe,  the  U.S.  market  has  a  prominent  impact  on  our  business.  This  is 
evident as after the Demerger, although we are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) alongside and the Borsa 
Italiana (the Italian stock exchange), majority of the trading has shifted to the NYSE. Further evidence is supplied by our 
strong  commercial  presence  in  the  U.S.,  the  robust  returns  generated  by  such  presence,  the  high  concentration  of  our 
peer companies and competitors in the U.S., the talent markets in which we operate, and the nationalities represented in 
our leadership team. Accordingly, our compensation peer group appropriately reflects this reality.

Consistent with prior years, the 2022 Compensation Peer Group is comprised of a combination of companies based in the 
U.S. and Europe with a view to positioning CNH Industrial around the median of key financial scoping criteria, primarily 
revenue  and  market  capitalization.    At  the  time  the  2022  Compensation  Peer  Group  was  approved  by  the  HCC 
Committee,  CNHI  ranked  at  the  46th  percentile  on  projected  2022  revenue,  and  the  38th  percentile  on  market 
capitalization amongst its peers.

When  benchmarking  compensation  for  NEOs  other  than  Mr.  Wine,  the  Company  considers  a  combination  of  available 
data for this peer group and survey data provided by its consultant, WTW. Similar principles are used in identifying survey 
peers  based  on  size  and  industry  applicability.  In  assessing  compensation  levels,  the  Company  primarily  references 
median figures, considering various factors, such as location and scope of role, in setting individual NEO pay relative to 
median.

Compensation and  Risk

CNH Industrial is committed to maintaining and enhancing a culture focused on integrity and accountability. The Company 
has  adopted  several  policies,  including  those  detailed  below,  that  reflect  our  culture  as  well  as  our  compensation 
principles of aligning executives’ interests with long-term shareholder value creation and encouraging prudent risk taking. 

Stock Ownership Requirements

Our NEOs are subject to robust stock ownership guidelines, which require them to build up an interest in CNH Industrial 
stock over time as summarized below.

Minimum Requirements

CEO: five-times base salary with an interim milestone of two and a half-times base salary as of December 
31, 2022
Other NEOs: three-times base salary

Time Horizon

Within five years of policy implementation (2021) or an NEO’s date of appointment as applicable

Counted Equity Interests

Beneficially owned shares or shares in which the executive has a beneficial interest, e.g., owned by a 
spouse
Unvested equity awards do not count towards the requirement

Retention Requirement

The CEO must hold vested shares for five years from grant date
Other NEO’s must hold 50% of net shares following vesting until the stock ownership requirement is met

At the end of 2022, all NEOs were progressing towards their stock ownership requirement within the permitted five-year 
time horizon or in compliance with their respective stock ownership requirement.

Compensation Recoupment Policy

Our  compensation  recoupment  policy  (the  “Compensation  Recoupment  Policy”)  authorizes  the  Company  to  recover,  or 
“clawback,”  incentive  compensation  with  the  ability  to  retroactively  adjust  if  any  cash  or  equity  incentive  award  was 
predicated  upon  achieving  financial  results  and  the  financial  results  are  subsequently  subject  to  an  accounting 
restatement.

Covered Employees

All current or former executive officers

Triggering Events

Substantial accounting restatements of financial results that informed incentive outcomes, regardless of 
fraud or misconduct

Covered Compensation

Awards made under our equity incentive plan, which encompasses all incentive compensation awarded to 
NEOs including annual cash incentives under the Company Bonus Plan (“CBP”) and equity grants of PSUs 
and RSUs. The Company reserves the right to recoup excess amounts over that which would have been 
paid under an accounting restatement to the extent practicable.

Time Horizon

Incentive compensation received during the three-year period preceding the date on which the Company is 
required to prepare an accounting restatement

No recoupment of incentive compensation was warranted under any of the Company's incentive plans during 2022.

2022 Compensation Decisions and Outcomes

The  following  sections  detail  NEO  compensation  and  incentive  outcomes  for  2022  and  explain  the  impact  of  the 
Demerger on the 2021-2023LTI awards as approved by the HCC Committee in 2022.

Base Salary

None  of  our  NEO's  base  salaries  were  increased  in  2022.  As  previously  disclosed,  the  CEO's  target  compensation, 
including his base salary, is fixed for the five-year duration of his employment agreement.

Our NEOs’ annual variable compensation, delivered under the CBP, is contingent on the achievement of pre-established, 
rigorous financial measures and other designated performance objectives, such as ESG KPIs.  The goals of our incentive 
plans  align  to  our  five  strategic  priorities  which,  in  addition  to  customer  service,  emphasize  safety,  quality,  delivery  and 
profitability for all stakeholders.  Awards under our CBP are subject to our Compensation Recoupment Policy.

The  HCC  Committee  approved  the  2022  compensation  design  with  reference  to  CNH  Industrial’s  strategic  priorities, 
communicated goals and market practices. With respect to any annual bonuses, a threshold hurdle rate of Consolidated 
Adjusted  EBIT  Margin  must  be  achieved.  Company  performance  is  assessed  based  on  three  financial  performance 
measures  and  two  ESG  measures,  with  established  threshold,  target  and  maximum  goals.  Achieving  threshold 
performance earns 30% of the target opportunity, and maximum performance earns 200% of the target opportunity.

While the CEO is only subject to the company performance payout factor and any negative discretion applied by the HCC 
Committee, other NEOs’ awards are also subject to an individual performance factor, which can range from 0% - 125%, 
based  on  achievements  against  previously  determined  performance  goals.  Following  an  assessment  of  individual 
performance  during  2022,  the  HCC  Committee  approved  individual  performance  factors  ranging  from  90%-125%  of 
target.

Equity Incentives

Our equity incentives delivered under our LTI plan are a vital component of our NEOs’ overall reward packages. Equity 
incentives  support  our  long-term  strategy  and  recognize  our  NEOs’  leadership  and  the  achievement  of  our  strategic 
objectives. As of 2022, the Company grants equity awards on an annual basis, whereas awards granted in and prior to 
2021  were  made  on  a  ‘front-loaded’  basis,  meaning  awards  were  generally  made  once  every  three  years. This  change 
was made in response to shareholder feedback, to better align our design with competitive market norms, to enhance the 
retention  impact  of  our  awards,  and  to  maximize  alignment  with  our  strategic  priorities.  Equity  is  delivered  in  a 
combination  of  PSUs  and  RSUs,  both  of  which  are  subject  to  the  terms  of  our  Compensation  Recoupment  Policy. The 
Company does not pay dividends or dividend equivalents on PSUs and RSUs.

2022 RSU Awards

The  2022  RSU  awards  also  vest  on  a  cliff  basis,  following  the  conclusion  of  a  three-year  period,  subject  to  continued 
service and satisfactory individual performance.

2021 - 2023 PSU Awards

As  a  result  of  the  Demerger,  in  2022,  the  performance  period  of  the  2021-2023  PSU  awards  spans  pre-  and  post-
Demerger  periods. The  HCC  Committee  realigned  the  performance  conditions  for  the  proportional  post-Demerger  CNH 
Industrial scope of business operations only. The HCC Committee sought to ensure that the performance goals remained 
challenging and reflected the same degree of stretch after the perimeter adjustment.

The  2021  PSU  awards  were  subject  to  a  similar  performance  matrix  used  for  the  2022  PSUs,  assessing  cumulative 
Adjusted  EPS,  average  Industrial  ROIC  and  a  relative  TSR  modifier.  To  reflect  the  Demerger,  the  HCC  Committee 
approved updated Adjusted EPS and Industrial ROIC goals to simply reflect CNH Industrial’s contributions pre- and post-
Demerger.  In  addition,  the  HCC  Committee  determined  that  the  TSR  component  would  be  assessed  relative  to  the 
original  peer  group  for  2021  performance,  and  the  updated  peer  group  disclosed  in  respect  of  the  2022  PSUs  for  the 
remaining  two  years  of  the  performance  period.  The  resulting  modifier  would  be  weighted  one-third  based  on  2021 
performance and two-thirds based on 2022 – 2023 performance when approving a final outcome.

The adjusted 2021– 2023 performance goals, restated to reflect CNH Industrial’s (off-highway) performance contributions 
contemplated in the original goals are as follows:

The  relative  TSR  modifier  for  2021  has  been  assessed  relative  to  the  original  peer  group  which  comprised AB  Volvo, 
AGCO Corporation, Caterpillar Inc., Cummins Inc., Deere & Company, Komatsu Ltd., Kubota Corporation, PACCAR Inc., 
and Traton SE.  CNH Industrial ranked first relative to these companies for 2021, and so one-third of the final relative TSR 
modifier will be scored at 1.25. Two-thirds of the modifier will be based on CNH Industrial’s performance relative to the 
peer group disclosed in respect of the 2022 PSUs for the final two years of the performance period. 

As  with  the  2022  PSUs,  payouts  are  pro-rated  for  performance  between  the  threshold,  target  and  outstanding 
performance goals, and the maximum payout is subject to an overall cap of 200% of target.

New Hire Awards

When  the  HCC  Committee  and/or  the  Board  determine  it  appropriate,  the  Board,  at  the  recommendation  of  the  HCC 
Committee,  may  approve  additional  compensation  associated  with  the  recruitment  of  new  executives.  In  relation  to  the 
recruitment and appointment of Mr. Wine as CEO, effective January 2021, the HCC Committee recommended, and the 
Board  approved,  payments  to  secure  Mr.  Wine’s  appointment.    As  disclosed  in  2021,  these  payments  were  made  to 
compensate Mr. Wine for amounts that he was forfeiting with his prior employer upon accepting the role at CNH Industrial.

Replacement value will be paid in three cash installments in 2022, 2023 and 
2024 broadly aligned to the timing and values of the original awards that would 
have vested at his prior employer

The agreed amount reflects the estimated performance achievements and value 
associated with the underlying awards for the time Mr. Wine was employed
The first payment was made in 2022 and is included in the bonus column of the 
Summary Compensation Table for 2022
The payments are payable in the event of a Qualifying Termination but would be 
forfeited if the CEO voluntarily terminated prior to the payment dates.

Equity

The one-time 3X annual target LTI award served multiple purposes:

Using 2X of the RSU awards ($6 M) in addition to the Cash LTI Sign-On ($7.578 
million noted above) to compensate Mr. Wine for the total value of his 2018, 
2019 and 2020 LTI awards forfeited with his prior employer on joining CNH 
Industrial, an estimated total value of $13.578 million at the time of the offer

Using 1X each of the RSUs and PSUs to cover the annual target LTI award for 
the 2021 grant cycle for the 2021-2023 performance period, and providing the 
remaining 2X PSUs as a one-time highly leveraged at risk PSU award to 
incentivize Mr. Wine to join and be immediately invested in the long-term 
success of CNH Industrial and aligned with shareholder interests
The majority of the award was delivered in PSUs with performance conditions 
consistent with those applicable to other 2021–2023 NEO PSU awards. The 
value of these awards is included in the Stock Awards column of the Summary 
Compensation Table for 2021
The on-going annual LTI awards are $12M at target.

amounts will appear in our Summary Compensation Table for 2022, as well as 2021, 2023 and 2024.  No other new hire 
or one-time awards were made to our NEOs during 2022.

Mr.  Wine’s  first  two  years  with  CNH  Industrial  have  been  impressive,  with  stellar  financial  results,  reinforcing  the  HCC 
Committee’s conviction that the right candidate was selected and the use of performance-based equity in his buyout was 
appropriate. As  a  result,  the  value  of  his  outstanding  compensation  is  positively  linked  to  the  Company’s  performance.  
For further discussion, see the “Pay versus Performance” section of this CD&A.

The  HCC  Committee  considered  multiple  factors  when  establishing  Mr.  Wine’s  ongoing  target  compensation,  including 
what  was  considered  appropriate  to  secure  and  retain  a  high-caliber  leader  with  an  exceptional  track  record  who 
previously  had  a  highly  competitive  compensation  arrangement.    As  previously  discussed,  Mr.  Wine’s  regular  annual 
target compensation is fixed through 2025 and totals $17.1 million, with 73% tied to the Company’s performance and 70% 
in CNH Industrial equity awards. 

Benefits

CNH  Industrial  seeks  to  align  NEO  benefits  with  local  market  norms  and  to  provide  eligible  NEOs  with  participation  in 
broader employee benefits programs offered in the countries where each NEOs is based.  Some provisions are specific to 
the NEO’s Senior Leadership Team role.  The following table summarizes the key benefits offered to each of the NEOs:

(1) All of the NEOs participate in the defined contribution plans in their respective countries. In the U.S., CNHI Industrial also has a non-
qualified deferred compensation plan that allows contributions over the qualified 401(k) plan limits to continue plus allows additional 
elective deferrals. There are no supplemental plans offered by the Company in Italy or in Switzerland. For Mr. Neilson, contributions 
made into the U.K. GPP are over tax limits and as such are taxable which the Company covers. Additional supplemental contributions 
are paid as he earns them and are his tax responsibility.

(2)Mr. Neilson has a U.K. defined benefit that has been closed to service accruals as of February 1, 2020.
(3) Messrs. Wine and Barr are eligible for post-employment supplemental retiree healthcare if they remain employed until age 55 and have 

five years as CEO and three years as Senior Leadership Team member service, respectively. 

(4) Senior Leadership Team members' benefits follow their respective country's lease car policy with the exception of a larger variety of 
brands/models are available, if available in their country.  Mr. Pampalone receives reimbursement for car leased in Italy in lieu of Swiss 
leased car.  Mr. Barr elects not to use the leased car benefit available per the U.S. policy for Executives.

(5)  The  CEO's  personal  use  of  private  aviation  for  commuting  from  his  residence  to  Chicago  is  limited  to  100  flight  hours  per  year  and 
additionally for a maximum of 75 hours per year of other personal travel.  Any taxes associated with the use of the aircraft will be the 
sole responsibility of the CEO.

(6)  Mr.  Pampalone  receives  an  annual  housing  allowance  of  CHF  30,000,  taxable  to  him,  as  part  of  a  legacy  agreement  when  he 

transferred to Lugano Switzerland from Italy in December 2012.

(7) Mr. Pampalone’s position is based in Lugano, Switzerland but also maintains tax residency in Italy.  Per his employment agreement, he 

is tax equalized to Switzerland taxes, meaning the Company pays any higher Italy taxes, net (grossed up).

(8) There is no additional compensation during the restrictive covenant period(s) as their Senior Leadership Team terms and conditions 

are deemed full consideration for the restrictions.            

(9) See the table for "Potential Payments at Termination" for estimates based on eligibility as of December 31, 2022 and explanation of 
benefits. The eligible pay for Mr. Incisa’s months of severance is base salary, the average of 3-year bonus and car benefit. The other 
NEO’s eligible pay is base salary.

(1)  For  Messrs.  Wine  and  Barr,  the  amounts  include  deferrals  into  the  CNH  Industrial  Deferred  Compensation  Plan.  Salary  amounts 

deferred in fiscal 2022 are shown in the Fiscal 2022 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table.

(2) For the non-U.S. based NEOs, their local currency base earnings were converted to USD using the full year average exchange rate for 
the given year. For each fiscal year, the table below shows the exchange rates (USD per local currency) used for each of the non-U.S. 
based NEOs:

(3)  The  amount  in  2022  represents  the  first  of  three  annual  installments  of  a  cash  award  which  will  total  $7.578  million.  This  award 
replaces the CEO’s forfeited long-term awards which were not covered under the CNH Industrial 2021-2023 LTI awards. The second 
and third installments will equal $2.355 million and $0.975 million, respectively, and are set to be paid in 2023 and 2024. The 2023 
payment  was  made  in  fiscal  2023  and  will  be  reported  in  the  Company’s  executive  compensation  disclosure  for  fiscal  2023.  The 
amount in 2021 was a cash sign-on paid upon hiring to compensate for the forfeited 2020 bonus from the prior employer.    

(4) Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of PSUs and RSUs computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The values in 
this column exclude the effect of estimated forfeitures. Assumptions made in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 21, 
“Equity,”  of  our  Consolidated  Financial  Statements.  For  PSUs,  the  value  at  the  grant  date  is  based  upon  a  target  payout  of  the 
performance metrics over the three-year performance period. For the 2022 PSUs, if the highest level of performance were achieved, 
the value of the PSU awards as of the grant date would be as follows: $20,189,638 (Wine), $4,128,914 (Incisa), $3,639,516 (Neilson), 
$1,689,099 (Pampalone), and $1,653,464 (Barr). RSUs will vest three years after the grant date, at which time they may be settled in 
CNHI  common  stock.  Refer  to  the  Fiscal  2022  Grants  of  Plan-Based  Awards  table  and  Note  21  "Equity"  thereto  for  a  detailed 
description of the grant date fair value of our stock awards.

(5) As discussed in the CD&A under “CBP Outcomes” in the Annual Cash Incentive section, based on actual company performance, the 
NEOs earned a CBP award equal to 145.89% of the target opportunity. The awards for NEOs other than the CEO were adjusted for 
individual performance by a factor that ranged from 90% to 125.

(6) Mr. Wine deferred 50% of the earned CBP bonus into the CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan. Bonus amounts deferred in 

2022 are shown in the Fiscal 2022 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table and relate to the 2021 plan year bonus.

(7)  Messrs.  Incisa,  Neilson  and  Pampalone’s  local  currency  cash  bonuses  were  converted  to  USD  using  the  full  year  average  year 

exchange rate for the given year, as shown in the Base Salary section above. 

(8) For Messrs. Wine and Barr, these amounts include above market interest earned on deferred compensation for each year. 
(9) For Mr. Neilson, these amounts include the change in present value (“PV”) of his defined benefit plan accumulated benefits. The U.K. 
CNH Pension Scheme was discontinued effective January 31, 2020 for additional service, but benefits increase annually for inflation 
as measured by the U.K. retail price index (“RPI”).  The valuation changes for market conditions impacting the assumptions, primarily 

Board Report   Remuneration Report    113

 
the  discount  rate.  The  change  in  the  PV  of  the Accumulated  Benefit  over  2021  (a  reduction  of  £40,858)  and  2022  (a  reduction  of 
£914,553) have been set to zero for disclosure purposes.

a. The NEOs are eligible for a leased car pursuant to the Company’s car policy in each country in connection with the 
Company’s arrangements with Stellantis NV. The values provided above reflect the value of each NEO’s selected car, 
as selected from a list of Fiat Chrysler brands and per the respective NEO’s countries’ tax code. Mr. Barr does not 
utilize the lease car benefit that is available under the U.S. car policy.

b. Per Mr. Wine’s employment agreement, he is entitled to limited personal usage of the Company’s corporate aircraft.  
c. Mr. Incisa received a seniority premium of 1/13th annual salary per the Italy Contract terms in recognition of his 25th 

work anniversary.

d. Mr. Pampalone receives an annual housing allowance of CHF 30,000, taxable to him, as part of a legacy agreement 

when his role transferred to Lugano,  Switzerland from Italy in December 2012.   

e. Mr. Pampalone’s position is based in Lugano, Switzerland but he is also a resident of Italy for tax purposes. Per Mr. 
Pampalone’s  employment  agreement,  he  is  tax  equalized  to  Switzerland  taxes,  meaning  the  Company  pays  any 
amount in respect of Italian taxes that would result in Mr. Pampalone’s net taxes exceeding what he otherwise would 
have paid in Switzerland. 

f. Messrs.  Wine  and  Barr  are  eligible  for  post-employment  supplemental  retiree  healthcare  if  they  remain  employed 
until age 55 and Mr. Wine has five years as CEO and Mr. Barr has three years as Senior Leadership Team member 
service, respectively. The amounts provided above represent the annual service costs of future potential benefits per 
the annual actuarial valuation. 

g. All  the  NEOs  participate  in  their  countries’  defined  contribution  plan  for  salaried  employees,  and  in  the  case  of  Mr. 
Incisa,  for  Directors  as  defined  in  the  Contratto  Collettivo  di  Lavoro  per  i  Dirigenti,  (“Italy  Contract”),  the  collective 
labor  contract  for  Directors.  The  amounts  provided  above  include  the  2022  contributions  the  Company  made  into 
their respective savings plans.

h. For  Messrs.  Wine  and  Barr,  company  matching  amounts  above  the  qualified  401(k)  plan  limits  are  also  included 

above and are also disclosed in the non-qualified deferred compensation table.

i.

For Mr. Neilson, the amount listed above includes supplemental contributions over the tax qualified limits which are 
paid directly to Mr. Neilson as they are earned. The supplemental benefits are described in a later section regarding 
Pension Benefits. Of the total amount provided above, $15,212 covers the tax and gross-up on the portion that is tax-
protected by the Company.

Fiscal 2022 Grants of Plan-Based Awards

The  following  table  provides  additional  information  regarding  both  the  short-term  and  LTI  awards  and  potential  payout 
ranges for awards that were granted in fiscal 2022. The short-term incentive awards were granted under the 2022 CBP 
and the LTI awarded solely in equity awards consists of RSU and PSU awards under the CNH Industrial 2022-2024 LTI 
plan.  The  equity  awards  will  deliver  payout  in  future  years  subject  to  meeting  the  vesting  and  performance  conditions. 
These awards are further described in the CD&A under “2022 Compensation Decisions and Outcomes | Annual Cash 
Incentives | Equity Incentives.”

(1) For the non-equity incentive plan awards, the grant date is the date on which the Committee approved the range of estimated potential 
payouts for the 2022 performance year under the CBP. For equity awards, the grant date is the notification date for awards granted to 
the NEOs after the Committee approved the 2022-2024 LTI plan. For the non-U.S. based NEOs, the range of payout was converted to 
USD using the 2022 full year average exchange rates (see the related footnote in the Summary Compensation Table for the FX rates).
(2) The threshold, target and maximum columns show the range of potential payouts under the CBP for achievement of the Company’s 
performance metrics. The metrics and range of performance goals for threshold, target and maximum are described in the CD&A in 
the  “2022  Compensation  Decisions  and  Outcomes  |  Annual  Cash  Incentives”  section.  If  actual  performance  is  between  the 
threshold,  target  and  maximum  amounts,  the  earned  CBP  award  will  be  prorated.  For  the  NEOs  other  than  the  CEO,  an  individual 
modifier  between  0%  and  125%  will  be  applied  based  on  the  CEO’s  assessment  of  their  individual  and  team  goals  set  in  the 
Company’s Performance Management Process (“PMP”) for 2022. 

(3) Represents the potential payout range of PSUs granted in May 2022. The number of shares that vest is based on the achievement of 
predetermined  performance  metrics’  goals  for  the  three-year  period,  January  1,  2022  through  December  31,  2024. The  metrics  and 
range  of  performance  goals  for  threshold,  target  and  maximum  are  described  in  the  CD&A  in  the  “2022  Compensation  Decisions 
and Outcomes | Equity Incentives” section. At the end of the three-year performance period, the actual award, delivered as CNH 
Industrial  common  stock,  can  range  from  0%  to  200%  of  the  original  grant.  The  awards  may  be  forfeited  for  unfavorable  individual 
performance at the sole discretion of the Committee. No dividend equivalents are earned during the vesting period.

(4)  Represents  the  number  of  RSUs  granted  in  May  2022.  RSUs  will  vest  on April  30,  2025,  at  which  time  they  will  be  settled  in  CNH 
Industrial common stock. The awards may be forfeited for unfavorable individual performance at the sole discretion of the Committee. 
No dividend equivalents are earned during the vesting period.  

(5) Amounts shown represent the grant date fair value of equity awards granted to the NEOs in fiscal 2022 calculated in accordance with 
FASB ASC Topic 718. The values in this column exclude the effect of estimated forfeitures. For both the PSUs and RSUs, fair value is 
the market value of the underlying stock on the grant date, excluding dividends. The valuation of the PSUs assumes a target payout.

For  additional  information  on  the  valuation  assumptions,  refer  to  Note  21.  “Equity”  to  the  Consolidated  Financial 
Statements. 

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal 2022 Year-End

The  following  table  itemizes  outstanding  RSUs  and  PSUs  held  by  the  NEOs,  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  December  31, 
2022.  Valuation  depends  stock  price  and  PSUs  also  depend  on  achievement/overachievement  of  set  goals  included  in 
our strategic business plan.

Pension Benefits

Mr. Neilson, who is located in the U.K., is the only NEO who participates in a qualified defined benefit pension plan that 
provides a benefit based on an individual’s service and salary. Mr. Neilson participates in the CNH Pension Scheme (the 
“Scheme”) which all salaried U.K. employees hired prior to December 31, 2002 participate in. The Scheme was closed to 
future service accruals from January 31, 2020.  

The  following  table  shows  the  present  value  of  accumulated  benefit  using  assumptions  consistent  with  the  Company’s 
financial disclosure on the Scheme.

Revaluation Prior to 
Retirement

Increases in Payment

Pensions earned in respect of Pensionable Service on or before April 5, 2009 will be revalued each year in 
line with the Retail Price Index (“RPI”), up to a maximum of 5.0% a year.

Pensions earned in respect of Pensionable Service on or after April 6, 2009 will be revalued each year in line 
with the annual increase in the Consumer Prices Index (“CPI”), up to a maximum of 2.5% each year.

Pensions earned in respect of Pensionable Service completed before April 6, 1997 are not guaranteed to

Defined Contribution Benefits

Each of the NEOs participates in a Company-sponsored defined contribution plan available to salaried employees in their 
country of employment. All such defined contribution plans are tax-qualified plans. The U.S. based NEOs, Messrs. Wine 
and Barr also participate in a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for limits over the tax-qualified plans, as described 
in  the  “Nonqualified  Deferred  Compensation”  section.  Mr.  Neilson  receives  supplemental  contributions  over  the  tax-
qualified limits which are paid to him directly for his own personal retirement savings.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan Benefits

In  the  U.S.,  CNH  Industrial  offers  the  Case  New  Holland  Industrial  Inc.  2005  Deferred  Compensation  Plan  (the  “CNH 
Industrial  Deferred  Compensation  Plan”)  to  certain  U.S.  salaried  employees,  including  U.S.  based  NEOs,  to  provide 
longer-term  savings  opportunities  on  a  tax-efficient  basis  for  retirement  and  future  income  needs.    Similar  deferred 
compensation  benefits  are  commonly  offered  by  U.S.  companies  with  which  we  compete  for  talent.  Messrs.  Wine  and 
Barr participate in the CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan. 

Key Features of the CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan 

Contributions

Eligible  participants  may  elect  annually  to  tax  defer  up  to  90%  of  their  salary  and  eligible  bonus  and  also  elect 
supplemental contributions over the qualified limits under the CNH Industrial U.S. Retirement Plan (a 401(k) plan). 

There are two types of supplemental contributions under the CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan:

• Elective Deferrals, also called Excess 401(k) Contributions (made by employees)

• Employer Matching Contributions (Company matching contributions on Excess 401(k) contributions)

Elective  Deferrals:  Once  the  participant  has  reached  the  elective  deferral  limit  in  the  CNH  Industrial  U.S.  Retirement 
Savings Plan, supplemental tax-deferred contributions (Excess 401(k) Contributions) are credited to their CNH Industrial 
Deferred Compensation Plan account for the remainder of the year.

Employer  Matching  Contributions:  Supplemental  Employer  Matching  Contributions  are  made  based  on  Excess  401(k) 
Contributions.  The  participant  must  complete  a  year  of  eligibility  service  to  begin  receiving  matching  contributions.  The 
Company  matches  200%  of  the  first  2%  of  eligible  pay  and  then  100%  of  the  next  8%  of  pay  that  is  contributed  to  the 
401(k) plan and the CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan, for a maximum match of 12% of eligible pay.  

The  first-year  eligibility  for  Company  matching  contributions  was  waived  for  Mr.  Wine,  as  part  of  his  CEO  employment 
agreement. The amounts were credited to Mr. Wine’s CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan account at the end of 
2021. No exceptions were made for Mr. Barr or other NEOs in the CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan.

The  U.S.  based  NEO’s  2022  deferral  elections  are  noted  in  the  footnotes  to  the  Nonqualified  Deferred  Compensation 
table. 

Earnings

CNH  Industrial  Deferred  Compensation  Plan  accounts  are  credited  with  a  rate  of  return  based  on  the  effective  annual 
yield of 130% of Moody’s Corporate Bond Index on all participant and company matching contributions. The earnings are 
also on a tax-deferred basis, thus maximizing the combined benefit of pre-tax deferrals and tax-deferred growth.

Because this rate of return was above the U.S. applicable federal rate (“AFR”) each year, earnings in excess of the AFR 
are included on the Summary Compensation Table.

Vesting

• Participant deferrals and related earnings are 100% vested.

• Employer Matching Contributions vest after three years of continued service.

Forms of Payment               

The CNH Industrial Deferred Compensation Plan provides flexible payment options for participants who remain employed 
as  of  a  specific  date  (a  “scheduled  distribution”)  and/or  after  the  participant  retires  or  otherwise  terminates  their 
employment with the Company.  

Retirement Accounts: Can be elected to be paid in a lump sum (after six months of termination for key employees such as 
the NEOs) or in annual installments over a period of up to 10 years. 

• If installments are elected, that election will apply if the participant at the time of termination of employment reaches 

age 62 or reaches age 55 with 10 years of credited service.

• If the participant is not retirement eligible at the time of termination of employment with the company, accounts will be 

paid in a lump sum.

• If  the  participant  becomes  disabled  while  employed,  accounts  are  treated  as  retirement  payments,  regardless  of 

reaching retirement eligibility.

Scheduled Distributions: Can be paid in a lump sum or annual installments up to five years. 

• The payment commencement year must be at least five years after the plan year when the schedule is established.

Board Report   Remuneration Report    118

• All scheduled distribution subaccounts that commence in a year after the participant’s termination of employment will 

be paid according to the participant’s retirement election for that plan year.

Fiscal 2022 Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Potential Payments upon Change in Control

The CNH Industrial N.V. Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”) includes change in control provisions that apply to participants’ 
outstanding equity awards and are intended to facilitate continuity of management in the event of a change in control (as 
defined in the EIP) (“CIC”). 

The Committee believes the EIP’s CIC provisions: 

– Encourage  executives  to  act  in  the  best  interest  of  shareholders  when  evaluating  transactions  that,  without  a  CIC 

arrangement, could be personally detrimental;

– Keep executives focused on running the business in the face of definitive, contemplated or rumored transactions;

– Protect CNH Industrial’s value by retaining key talent despite potential corporate changes;

– Protect CNH Industrial’s value after a CIC by including restrictive covenants (such as non-compete provisions) and a 

general release of claims in favor of CNH Industrial; and 

– Help CNH Industrial remain competitive in its ability to attract and retain skilled executives. 

Other Potential Payments Upon Other Qualifying Terminations 

In  addition,  the  NEOs  and  other  Senior  Leadership  Team  members  have  qualifying  termination  terms  and  conditions 
which include other qualifying terminations. 

No severance payments were made to Executive or Non-Executive Directors.

Fiscal 2022 Pay Versus Performance (“PvP”)

A  key  principle  of  the  Company’s  compensation  philosophy,  incorporated  throughout  our  compensation  policies  and 
programs, is pay for performance. CNH Industrial leverages variable pay elements tied to challenging Company goals that 
are aligned to the business strategy, while ensuring no adverse risk taking by offering appropriate and competitive fixed 
pay elements. The following tables, supporting footnotes and narrative and graphic disclosure aim to demonstrate the link 
between  compensation  actually  paid,  per  the  SEC  definition,  for  our  NEOs  to  the  Company’s  performance,  both  in 
absolute terms and as compared to the market for the fiscal years 2022, 2021 and 2020.

Specifically, this PvP section discusses the relationship between:

Compensation Actually Paid Versus Company Performance 

CNH Industrials’ compensation framework emphasizes pay for performance, as evidenced in only 10% of the CEO’s target 
direct  compensation  being  fixed  in  the  form  of  base  salary.  Given  Mr.  Wine’s  appointment  as  CEO  in  2021,  both  the 
Summary  Compensation  Table  pay  and  Compensation  Actually  paid  figures  comprise  multiple  elements  of  equity  
compensation, namely:

• A 2021 equity grant, comprising PSUs (75%) and RSUs (25%) was awarded at three-times the target annual value. 
As explained in the “New Hire Awards” section on page 110 these awards served multiple purposes including buying 
out Mr. Wine’s forfeited awards on joining CNH Industrial, providing an initial equity grant as part of the 2021-2023 
performance cycle, and lastly a one-time inducement for joining through performance-based PSUs. The three-times 
multiple was the framework approved by shareholders for Executive Directors and consistent with the awards to other 
NEOs as part of our transition to an annual equity grant framework in response to feedback from our shareholders.

• A  2022  equity  grant  with  a  target  grant  value  of  $12M,  consistent  with  the  annual  target  package  approved  by  the 
HCC Committee on Mr. Wine’s appointment and fixed for five years, again delivered in a combination of PSUs (75%) 
and RSUs (25%).

These awards are subject to vesting periods and the only realized value so far from these awards is from the first tranche 
of the 2021-2023 RSUs that vested in 2022 and must be held by the CEO until January 4, 2026.

• The remaining RSUs granted in 2021 and 2022 will vest in 2024 for the 2021 grant and in 2025 for the 2022 grant 
and will remain subject to a holding period for a further two years into 2026 and 2027. During this time, they remain 
subject to stock price exposure, maximizing alignment with shareholder interests.

• The PSUs granted in 2021 and 2022 will not vest until 2024 and 2025 respectively and are subject to quantifiable, 
objective  performance  conditions  based  on  cumulative  Adjusted  EPS,  Average  Industrial  ROIC  and  relative  TSR. 
Following vesting, these shares will also remain subject to a two-year holding period. During these time horizons, the 
underlying  awards  will  remain  at-risk  dependent  on  our  performance,  with  the  potential  payout  ranging  from  0%  - 
200% of target, as well as being exposed to our stock price performance. 

The  table  above  calculates  CAP  in  accordance  with  the  required  methodology,  meaning  that  these  outstanding  awards 
have been valued prior to vesting based on fair values. The fair values take into account our performance to date, both in 
terms  of  stock  price  appreciation  between  the  date  of  grant  and  our  fiscal  year  ends  and  our  projected  payout  factors 
relative to the performance measures applicable to the 2021 and 2022 PSUs. As a result of our performance in the first 
two years of Mr. Wine’s tenure as CEO, the values on this basis have increased materially since the date of grant. The 
equity value included in the CAP calculation reflects our FMV/unit appreciation of 31% and 12%  since the date of grant in 
2021 and 2022, respectively, the 2021 PSUs projecting a payout factor of 200% of target after two of the three years in 
the performance period having elapsed, and the 2022 PSUs projecting a payout factor of 150% of target after one of the 
three years in the performance period having elapsed.

PEO and Average NEO CAP versus TSR 2020-2022. The Company outperforms the peer in TSR.

As shown below, CNH Industrial’s stock performance has outperformed the peer group. This material increase during 
2021 is a contributing factor to the increase in CAP during the same period relative to the grant date fair value included in 
SCT pay. The following charts show the TSR trend versus the PEO’s SCT compensation and CAP and other NEO's SCT 
compensation and CAP, respectively.

to stock price, and shareholder value and impacted long term incentive valuation.

The chart below shows the relationship between CAP and our company selected measure of Adjusted Diluted EPS, which 
features in our PSU performance measures for 2021 and 2022. There was a significant increase in Adjusted Diluted EPS 
during  2021,  and  a  further  increase  in  2022  which  contributed  to  the  assessment  of  mid-cycle  PSU  payout  factors  in 
establishing the fiscal year end fair values for outstanding awards. 

PEO and average NEO CAP versus Consolidated Revenues

The  chart  below  shows  the  relationship  between  CAP  and  our  supplementary  performance  measure  of  Consolidated 
Revenues. While this is not an explicit performance measure used to determine the vesting of PSUs, we believe it is an 
important driver of stock price performance and accordingly it will influence the value of outstanding equity awards. 

Tabular List of Company Performance Measures

The following table alphabetically lists the measures we believe are most important in linking compensation actually paid 
to company performance during 2022. 
(1)    Adjusted Diluted EPS ($)
(2)    Cash Conversion
(3)    CNH Industrial TSR
(4)    Consolidated Adjusted EBIT Margin (%)

All  of  the  identified  financial  measures  are  listed.  Further  details  on  these  measures  and  how  they  feature  in  our 
compensation plans can be found in our Compensation Discussion & Analysis.

As  required  by  and  pursuant  to  SEC  17  C.F.R.  §  229.402,  the  Company’s  median  employee  total  compensation  as 
compared to Scott W. Wine, CEO, for 2022 has been calculated. 

•

•

•

The annual total compensation for our median employee was $ 47,208.

The annual total compensation of our CEO as reported in the Summary Compensation Table was $ 22,915,662.

The ratio of Mr. Wine’s total compensation to our median employee’s total compensation for fiscal year 2022 was 
approximately 485 to 1. 

Our median employee was identified using the following methodology: 

• We chose November 30, 2022 as the date to determine median employee 

• We included all full-time, part-time, temporary, and seasonal employees globally (excluding the CEO) for a total 

of 39,883 employees, 26.2% being located in the USA and 73.8% outside the USA 

•

The Company did not exclude any employees when determining our employee population.

• We  used  annualized  base  pay  as  our  consistently  applied  compensation  measure  to  identify  the  median 

employee.

The  CEO  pay  ratio  reported  above  is  a  reasonable  estimate  calculated  in  a  manner  consistent  with  SEC  17  C.F.R.  § 
229.402 based on the methodologies and assumptions described above. 

Compensation of Directors

The Board of Directors consists of a one-tier structure including Executive Directors (the Chair and the CEO roles) with 
managerial  roles  and  Non-Executive  board  members  with  supervisory  roles.    The  Board  as  a  whole  has  collective 
responsibility for the strategy of the Company and is currently composed of nine Directors.  The Board of Directors of the 
Company  appointed  the  following  internal  committees:  (i)  an  Audit  Committee,  (ii)  an  Environmental,  Social  and 
Governance Committee, and (iii) an HCC Committee. The Board also appointed Mr. Léo W. Houle Senior Non-Executive 
Director.

The CEO is also the primary NEO in this report whose compensation is disclosed in detail in the CD&A and corresponding 
compensation  tables  section.    The  Chair’s  compensation  is  disclosed  in  this  section  with  the  Non-Executive  Directors, 
although her compensation is structured differently, as indicated below.     

We have structured the compensation of our Non-Executive Directors with the following objectives in mind:

•

•

•

•

Offer competitive compensation to attract and retain highly qualified leaders to guide and govern a large, global, 
complex organization;

Recognize the substantial investment of time and expertise necessary for the directors to discharge their duties;

Ensure that compensation is easy to understand and is regarded positively by our shareholders and employees; 
and

Comply with Dutch corporate governance best practices and comply with Dutch and U.S. SEC regulations. 

The  compensation  of  our  Non-Executive  Directors  is  fixed  and  not  dependent  on  the  Company’s  financial  results,  in 
accordance  with  DCGC  which  sets  governance  practices  and  expectations  for  companies  incorporated  in  the 
Netherlands.  Accordingly,  they  receive  their  annual  retainer  fee,  committee  membership,  and  committee  chair  fee 
payments (collectively, “Fees”) entirely in cash. Non-Executive Directors do not receive benefits upon termination of their 
service  as  directors,  nor  any  other  benefit,  perquisites.  No  meeting  fees  are  paid,  but  we  do  reimburse  directors  for 
expenses related to meeting attendance. For some countries, Non-Executive Directors and the Company are subject to 
social contributions on the fees earned.

Compensation is reviewed annually for the Chair and Non-Executive Directors by the HCC Committee.  

Compensation for Non-Executive Directors

The  compensation  of  Non-Executive  Directors  is  governed  by  the  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  Directors’  Compensation  Plan 
within the scope of the CNH Industrial N.V. Remuneration Policy.  The following chart describes amounts we pay to Non-
Executive Directors:

Board Report   Remuneration Report    127

In 2019, upon the recommendation of the HCC Committee, the Board resolved to implement share ownership guidelines 
for  the  Non-Executive  Directors.  Applicable  to  Non-Executive  Directors  appointed  or  reappointed  in  April  2019  or 
thereafter, Non-Executive Directors are required to own Company shares in an aggregate amount of not less than 1x their 
annual retainer fee, which is $125,000, within 24 months of first appointment to the Board. The Non-Executive Directors 
are  expected  to  hold  Company  shares  as  a  long-term  investment  and,  as  such,  are  expected  to  hold  their  Company 
shares  while  on  the  Board  and  for  an  additional  three  months  after  their  Board  service  terminates.  All  of  the  Non-
Executive Directors have currently met the guideline except for the newly appointed Directors, Messes. Bastioli and Ms. 
Tamsons who have until December 23, 2023 to meet the guideline.

Compensation for the Chair

The Chair role, held by Suzanne Heywood, is an Executive Director managerial board role, whose compensation differs 
from  the  Non-Executive  supervisory  board  members.  The  Chair  is  not  a  NEO  and  therefore  her  compensation  is  not 
included in the CD&A section of this report.

Unvested awards do not receive dividend equivalents.   

(2) The performance assumption for the PSUs is maximum payout or 200% of target.

In the event of a qualifying termination, including involuntary termination not for cause, death, or disability, the Chair would 
be entitled to prorated vesting of the outstanding awards and subject to performance vesting conditions. The value of the 
potential  payout  of  the  outstanding  awards  as  of  December  31,  2022    upon  the  qualifying  termination  would  be  $8.5 
million.

In  the  event  of  a  CIC  and  a  qualifying  termination,  all  of  the  outstanding  awards  at  target  would  vest. The  value  of  the 
potential payout as of December 31, 2022 under this scenario would be $8.4 million.

(1) For the CEO, the amount includes a Company leased vehicle, health care and life insurances, and personal usage of aircraft. For the 
Chair,  the  amount  includes  personal  use  of  a  Company-provided  car  service,  healthcare  and  life  insurances  and  executive  health 
assessment. Typical employee benefits for healthcare and life insurance are not included in the Summary Compensation Table.

(2) The 2022 amount represents the bonus approved for the performance year and paid in 2023. See the Incentives section in the CD&A

(3) The Chair does not participate in the annual cash incentive plan.   
(4) The amounts represent each fiscal year’s share-based compensation (SBC) expense under applicable accounting standards relating 
to grants issued with a portion of the vesting period in the fiscal year. For 2022, the amount includes the 2022-2024 and the 2021-2023 
LTI plans. The performance factor assumption is1.5 for the 2022-2024 LTI PSUs and 2.0 for the 2021-2023 LTI PSUs. This valuation 
differs from the equity value in the Summary Compensation Table under the U.S. SEC 10k regulations which applies the FMV at grant 
date of the awards granted during the fiscal year.

Notes:
(1) The accounting valuation of share-based compensation expense is the value reported for equity awards in the Summary Remuneration 

table.  

(2) The LTI plan includes the legacy 2021-2023 performance cycle awards and the 2022-2024 performance cycle awards which consists 
of  a  Company  performance  component,  with  potential  vesting  of  PSUs,  and  an  individual  performance  component,  with  potential 
vesting of RSUs. The PSUs for both cycles vest at the end of their respective performance cycle, while the legacy RSUs vest in three 
equal annual installments over the performance cycle and the 2022-2024 RSUs cliff vest on April 30, 2025.   

In accordance with the DCGC, the Committee discussed with the CEO and the Chair their respective 2022 compensation, 
and each are fully aligned with the compensation awarded.

Internal Pay Ratios

When setting the Executive Directors’ compensation, the Committee considers both the appropriate external benchmark 
as  well  as  the  internal  pay  ratios  within  the  Company. Although  the  primary  consideration  is  market  competitiveness  to 
attract  and  retain  highly  qualified  senior  executives  in  a  large,  global,  complex  organization,  a  baseline  internal 
comparison is set, and trends are tracked. The trend in executives’ compensation is evaluated in relation to the trend in 
employees’ compensation.

In  line  with  the  guidance  under  the  DCGC,  the  CEO  Pay  ratio  and  trend  is  disclosed  in  the  annual  executive 
compensation  disclosure  of  the  annual  report.  The  basis  of  the  pay  ratio  comparison  uses  the  prevalent  Dutch 
methodology  of  average  employee  compensation,  including  all  labor  costs.  Consistent  with  prior  years,  CEO 
compensation and average employee compensation use the accounting value of equity awards.  Under this methodology, 
the value of an equity award is allocated over the period between grant and vesting.

The CEO’s pay in 2022 and 2021 reflect the pay of Scott W. Wine, hired on January 4, 2021 with a highly competitive pay 
package  and  hiring  incentive  awards  to  attract  him  to  join  CNH  Industrial  and  leave  a  highly  paid  CEO  position  at  this 
former employer.  Additionally, the incentive included one-time highly leveraged performance-based equity awards to align 
him with CNH Industrial shareholders and provide upside potential reward linked to performance for the risk he assumed 
changing from a known company and industry to a much larger and globally diverse and complex company in a different 

Board Report   Remuneration Report    133

industry. His performance-based equity awards have experienced above target performance under Mr. Wine’s leadership 
across each of the metrics,  Adjusted Diluted EPS and Industrial ROIC and relative TSR.  The 2022 value of the equity 
awards reflects PSUs achieving the maximum, 2x target, for the 2021-2023 LTI PSUs and 1.5x target for the 2022-2024 
LTI  PSUs. Additional  explanation  of  the  CEO’s  pay  in  2022  and  2021  and  the  strong  link  to  Company  and  share  price 
performance can be referenced in the CD&A and the Pay versus Performance section of this report.

The  average  employee  compensation  is  the  total  personnel  costs  reported  in  the  Annual  Report,  which  excludes 
Executive Director compensation, divided by average year headcount reported in the Annual Report, less the CEO who is 
included in the total average year headcount. Over the five-year period, the average employee compensation has been 
impacted, due to changing business conditions, by shifts in the labor market in the different geographies. 

The five-year trend of CEO pay versus average employee compensation is shown in the following table:

Notes
(1)  The  compensation  for  the  CEO  is  as  reported  in  the  Summary  Remuneration  table  per  the  DCGC  and  Dutch  Civil  Code  unless 
otherwise noted in subsequent footnotes. In 2022, the CEO’s compensation includes the value of the CEO’s performance-based equity 
awards with an expected 2x payout for the 2021-2023 LTI PSUs and 1.5x payout for the 2022-2023 LTI PSUs and the extraordinary 
compensation of $4.2 million related to the first installment of three of the hiring cash incentive which replaces the forfeited equity not 
covered  under  the  2021-2023  LTI  awards.  Mr.  Wine’s  target  total  direct  compensation  which  is  fixed  for  five  years  is  $17.1  million, 
which would result in a CEO pay ratio of 230 and maximum payout opportunity of $29.5 million, resulting in a ratio of 397.

(2)  The  CEO,  hired  January  4,  2021,  received  a  signing  incentive  to  leave  his  prior  employer  before  his  2020  bonus  payout. The  ratio 
excluding that one-off payment is 290. The equity expense included in the total CEO compensation is assuming target payout for the 
company performance share units. The actual payout is at the end of the performance period and will be determined in February 2024. 
The ratio assuming maximum payout for the company performance share units is 434.

(3) For 2020, data incorporates the compensation of the former CEO and the Acting CEO, as was reported in the Summary Remuneration 

table.

(4)  For  2019,  CEO  compensation  is  consistent  with  the  Summary  Remuneration  table  include  in  the  2019  report,  excluding  the  2019 
accounting  value  of  the  CEO’s  one-time  “Make  Whole”  award,  which  vested  in  September  2019.  Including  the  2019  Make  Whole 
accounting  value  of  $2.8  million,  the  CEO  pay  ratio  would  be  156.  The  2019  CEO  Pay  Ratio  calculation  includes  $2.9  million  in 
accounting value related to the 2017-2019 PSUs that did not meet the threshold achievement for any payout and have been forfeited. 
The CEO Pay Ratio excluding the forfeited PSU award would be 62.

(5) For 2018, a targeted full year compensation is shown for year-over-year comparison.
(6) Average Employee compensation is derived from personnel costs reported under IFRS, which does not include personnel costs for the 
Executive  Directors,  divided  by  the  average  headcount.  Personnel  costs  as  disclosed  with  the  IFRS Annual  Report  for  2022,  2021, 
2020,  2019,  and  2018  are  $2,976  million,  $4,695  million,  $3,820  million,  $3,909  million  and  $3,591  million  respectively.  Average 
number of employees as disclosed within the IFRS Annual Report for 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, and 2018 are 38,966, 67,318, 63,482, 
64,596 and 64,045 respectively.

Notes:
(1) Includes non-GAAP metrics derived from financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
(2)  Figures  from  2019  to  2022  reflect  the  continuing  operations  scope  of  CNH  Industrial,  that  is  excluding  the  Iveco  Group  businesses 

results. The 2018 figures reflect the entire scope of CNH Industrial in 2018.

(3) Using dividend-adjusted closing prices at the ending of each year and indexing from a 2017 year end baseline (i.e., index at 100).

Under  the  leadership  of  the  current  CEO,  the  2022  and  2021  operational  results  on  numerous  key  metrics  hit  record 
levels  and  shareholders  earned  a  high  cumulative  two-year  return  as  well.  In  the  Pay  versus  Performance  section, 
additional metrics are shown, including a comparison to the relative TSR of the S&P 500 Industrial index, a group of about 
industrial peers.  As that section illustrates, CNH Industrial’s performance trend on many fronts has been stellar. 

The  linkage  of  CEO  pay  to  performance  is  very  strong  with  73%  tied  to  the  CEO’s  compensation  at  target  and  84%  at 
maximum.  The  investment  in  securing  Mr.  Wine’s  expertise,  vision  and  leadership  has  already  paid  off  through  the 
increased value delivered to shareholders and stakeholders.

The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  CNH  Industrial  common  stock  beneficially  owned  as  of  January  31,  2023, 
(unless otherwise indicated) by each person who, to our knowledge, beneficially owns more than 3% of our common 
stock.

(a)  In  addition,  EXOR  N.V.  holds  366,927,900  special  voting  shares;  EXOR  N.V.'s  beneficial  ownership  in  CNH 
Industrial is 42.8%, calculated as the ratio of (i) the aggregate number of common and special voting shares owned 
by  EXOR  N.V.  and  (ii)  the  aggregate  number  of  outstanding  common  shares  and  special  voting  shares  of  CNH 
Industrial. There were 1,715,313,924 outstanding common shares and special voting shares at January 31, 2023.

(b) Based on a Schedule 13G/A (Amendment No. 3) filed with the SEC on February 14, 2023, Harris Associates L.P.’s 
reported  beneficial  ownership  in  CNH  Industrial  at  December  31,  2022  is  5.3%  calculated  as  the  ratio  of  (i)  the 
number of common shares owned by Harris Associates L.P. and (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding common 
shares  and  special  voting  shares  of  CNH  Industrial.  Based  on  a  filing  made  by  Harris Associates  L.P.,  with  the 
public  register  of  substantial  holdings  and  gross  short  positions  held  by  the AFM  on  24  September  2021,  Harris 
Associates reported having indirect (real) voting rights over 87,178,442 common shares.

(c) Based on the filing made by BlackRock, Inc with the public register substantial holdings and gross short positions 
held  by  the  AFM  on  January  9,  2023,  BlackRock,  Inc  reported  holding  (i)  indirectly  (real)  49,859,946  common 
shares with 59,844,409 voting rights and (ii) indirectly (potential) 6,566 common shares with 49,582 voting rights. 
BlackRock,  Inc.'s  beneficial  ownership  in  CNH  Industrial  is  3.5%(*)  calculated  as  the  ratio  of  (i)  the  number  of 
common  shares  owned  by  BlackRock,  Inc.  and  (ii)  the  aggregate  number  of  outstanding  common  shares  and 
special voting shares of CNH Industrial.

(*) The amount does not include potential holdings where BlackRock, Inc. has a contractual right to indirectly acquire common shares potentially enabling the increase of common 

share and voting rights.

(d)  There were 1,344,240,971 common shares outstanding as of January 31, 2023. All these common shares have 
the same rights and entitlements. The “Percent of Common Shares” was calculated by using the publicly disclosed 
number of owned common shares as the numerator, respectively, and the number of the Company’s outstanding 
common shares as the denominator.

As  of  January  31,  2023,  EXOR  N.V.’s  voting  power  in  CNH  Industrial  as  a  result  of  the  loyalty  voting  program  was 
approximately  42.8%.  EXOR  N.V.,  through  its  voting  power,  has  the  ability  to  significantly  influence  the  decisions 
submitted to a vote of our shareholders, including approval of annual dividends, the election and removal of directors, 
mergers  or  other  business  combinations,  the  acquisition  or  disposition  of  assets  and  issuances  of  equity  and  the 
incurrence of indebtedness. 

Our common shares are listed and can be traded on either the NYSE in U.S. dollars or the Euronext Milan in euro. 
The special voting shares are not listed on the NYSE or the Euronext Milan not tradable and transferable only in very 
limited circumstances and only together with the common shares to which they are associated. 

Our shares may be held in the following three ways: 

▪ If a shareholder holds common shares directly in his or her own name in the United States, such shares are held in 

registered form in an account at Computershare Trust Company, N.A., our transfer agent; 

▪ Interests in our common shares that are traded on the NYSE are held through the book-entry system provided by 
The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and are registered  in  the register of shareholders in the name of Cede  & 
Co., as DTC’s nominee. Interests in the common shares traded on the Euronext Milan are held through Monte Titoli 
S.p.A., the Italian central clearing and settlement system, as a participant in DTC; 

▪ Special voting shares and the associated common shares are registered in the books and records of the Company’s 
transfer agents in the United States and Italy. As noted above, the special voting shares and associated common 
shares  are  not  tradable.  The  associated  common  shares  are  only  tradable  after  they  are  de-registered  from  the 
loyalty voting program at which time the associated special voting shares are surrendered to the Company. There is 
no possibility to hold a special voting share without holding an associated common share.

Other Shareholder Matters

Taxation

Nothing within this section should be considered or relied upon as tax advice. Rather, all prospective purchasers and 
holders of CNH Industrial stock, regardless of their country of residency, should consult their own tax advisors regarding 
the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of owning and disposing of CNH Industrial stock based upon 
their particular circumstances. 

Taxation of Loyalty Voting Program

The Company maintains a Loyalty Register which provides for special voting shares to reward long-term ownership of 
the Company’s common shares and to promote stability  of  its  shareholder base, as further defined in Note 21 to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

The tax consequences to Shareholders of owning special voting shares are uncertain because no statutory, judicial or 
administrative authority directly discusses how the receipt, ownership or disposition of special voting shares should be 
treated for tax purposes.

U.S. Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC)

The  U.S.  federal  income  tax  rules  provide  specific  tax  rules  applicable  to  shareholders  in  companies  that  meet  the 
definition  of  a  passive  foreign  investment  company  (“PFIC”)  for  U.S.  federal  income  tax  purposes.  CNH  Industrial 
believes that shares of its stock are not stock of a PFIC, but this conclusion is a factual determination made annually 
and thus may be subject to change. U.S. Holders of our ordinary shares may suffer adverse tax consequences if we are 
characterized as a passive foreign investment company.

Material U.K. Tax Consequences

This section summarizes the material U.K. tax consequences of the ownership of CNH Industrial common shares for 
U.S. Shareholders. It is intended only as a general guide and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential 
U.K. tax consequences of holding CNH Industrial common shares. This section is based on current U.K. tax law and 
what is understood to be the current practice of H.M. Revenue and Customs, as well as applicable tax treaties, as of 
the date of this form. This law and practice and these treaties are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. 

This  section  applies  only  to  shareholders  of  CNH  Industrial  that  are  U.S.  Shareholders,  that  are  not  resident  or 
domiciled in the U.K., that hold their shares as an investment, and that are the absolute beneficial owner of both the 
shares  and  any  dividends  paid  on  the  shares.  This  section  does  not  apply  to  members  of  any  special  class  of 
shareholders subject to special rules, such as: 

•

•

•

•

•

•

a pension fund;

a charity;

persons acquiring their shares in connection with an office or employment;

a dealer in securities;

an insurance company; or 

a collective investment scheme. 

In addition, this section may not apply to: 

•

•

any shareholders that, either alone or together, with one or more associated persons, such as personal 
trusts and connected persons, control directly or indirectly at least 10% of the voting rights or of any class 
of share capital of CNH Industrial; or 

any  person  holding  shares  as  a  borrower  under  a  stock  loan  or  an  interim  holder  under  a  repurchase 
agreement. 

Taxation of Dividends

Withholding from dividend payments

Under U.K. domestic law, dividend payments on CNH Industrial common shares may be made without withholding or 
deduction for or on account of U.K. income tax. 

Board Report   Major Shareholders    137

 
Non-U.K. - Resident Shareholders

A shareholder of CNH Industrial common shares that is not resident in the U.K. for U.K. tax purposes will not be liable 
to account for income or corporation tax in the U.K. on dividends paid on the shares unless the shareholder carries on a 
trade  (or  profession  or  vocation)  in  the  U.K.  and  the  dividends  are  either  a  receipt  of  that  trade  (or  profession  or 
vocation) or, in the case of U.K. corporation tax, the shares are held by or for a U.K. permanent establishment through 
which the trade is carried on. 

Taxation of Capital Gains 

Non-U.K. - Resident Shareholders 

As  long  as  CNH  Industrial  does  not  maintain  any  share  register  in  the  U.K.,  the  disposal  of  CNH  Industrial  common 
shares by a shareholder that is not resident in the U.K. for tax purposes (other than individuals temporarily non-resident 
in the U.K. for a period of less than five complete tax years) will not give rise to a chargeable gain or allowable loss.

Stamp Duty and Stamp Duty Reserve Tax (“SDRT”)

As  long  as  CNH  Industrial  does  not  maintain  any  share  register  in  the  U.K.,  (i)  U.K.  stamp  duty  will  not  normally  be 
payable  in  connection  with  a  transfer  of  common  shares,  provided  that  the  instrument  of  transfer  is  executed  and 
retained outside the U.K. and no other action is taken in the U.K. by the transferor or transferee, and (ii) no U.K. SDRT 
will be payable in respect of any agreement to transfer CNH Industrial common shares. 

Tax Consequences of Participating in the Loyalty Voting Program

A  non-U.K.-resident  shareholder  that  would  not  be  subject  to  tax  on  dividends  or  capital  gains  in  respect  of  CNH 
Industrial common shares will not be subject to U.K. tax in respect of the special voting shares.

As long as CNH Industrial does not maintain any share register in the U.K., no liability to U.K. stamp duty or SDRT will 
arise to shareholders on the issue or repurchase of special voting shares. 

Netherlands Taxation

This section summarizes solely the principal Dutch tax consequences of the acquisition, the ownership and the disposal 
of CNH Industrial common shares and / or special voting shares, by Non-Resident holders of such shares (as defined 
below). It does not purport to describe every aspect of Dutch taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder of CNH 
Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares. Tax matters are complex, and the tax 
consequences to a particular holder of CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting 
shares,  will  depend  in  part  on  such  holder’s  circumstances.  Shareholders  and  any  potential  inventor  should  consult 
their  own  tax  advisors  regarding  the  Dutch  tax  consequences  of  acquiring,  owning  and  disposing  of  CNH  Industrial 
common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares in their particular circumstances. 

Where  in  this  summary  English  terms  and  expressions  are  used  to  refer  to  Dutch  concepts,  the  meaning  to  be 
attributed to such terms and expressions shall be the meaning to be attributed to the equivalent Dutch concepts under 
Dutch  tax  law.  Where  in  this  section  the  terms  “the  Netherlands”  and  “Dutch”  are  used,  these  refer  solely  to  the 
European part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands

This summary also assumes that the board shall control the conduct of the affairs of CNH Industrial and shall procure 
that CNH Industrial is organized in accordance with the facts, based upon which the competent authorities of the U.K. 
and the Netherlands have ruled that CNH Industrial should be treated as solely resident of the U.K. for the application 
of the tax treaty as concluded between the U.K. and the Netherlands. A change in facts and circumstances based upon 
which the ruling was issued may invalidate the contents of this section, which will not be updated to reflect any such 
change.

This summary is based on the tax law of the Netherlands (unpublished case law not included) as it stands at the date of 
this form. The law upon which this summary is based is subject to change, perhaps with retroactive effect. Any such 
change may invalidate the contents of this summary, which will not be updated to reflect such changes. 

Scope of the Summary

The  summary  of  Dutch  taxes  set  out  in  this  section  “Material  Dutch  tax  consequences”  only  applies  to  a  holder  of 
shares who is a Non-Resident holder of shares. For the purpose of this summary, a holder of shares is a Non-Resident 
holder of shares if such holder is neither a resident nor deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch 
income tax or corporation tax as the case may be.

This Dutch taxation discussion does not address the Dutch tax consequences for a holder of CNH Industrial common 
shares and, if applicable, special voting shares who:

1.

Is  a  person  who  may  be  deemed  an  owner  of  CNH  Industrial  common  shares  and,  if  applicable,  CNH 
Industrial special voting shares for Dutch tax purposes pursuant to specific statutory attribution rules in Dutch 
tax law; 

Board Report   Major Shareholders    138

2. Owns  CNH  Industrial  common  shares  and,  if  applicable,  CNH  Industrial  special  voting  shares  in  connection 
with  a  membership  of  a  management  board  or  a  supervisory  board,  an  employment  relationship,  a  deemed 
employment relationship or management role; or 

3.

Is for Dutch tax purposes taxable as a corporate entity and resident of Aruba, Curaçao, or Sint Maarten.

Dividend Withholding Tax 

CNH Industrial is generally required to withhold Dutch dividend withholding tax at a rate of 15 percent from dividends 
distributed by it. The competent authorities of the U.K. and the Netherlands have ruled that CNH Industrial is resident of 
the  U.K.  for  the  application  of  the  tax  treaty  as  concluded  between  the  Netherlands  and  the  U.K.  Consequently, 
payments  made  by  CNH  Industrial  on  the  common  shares  and  /  or  the  special  voting  shares  to  Non-Resident 
shareholders may be made free from Dutch dividend withholding tax. 

Taxes  on  income  and  capital  gains  from  the  ownership  and  disposition  of  CNH  Industrial  common  shares  and  /  or 
special voting shares 

Individuals

If a Non-Resident holder of CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares is 
an  individual,  the  holder  will  not  be  subject  to  Dutch  income  tax  in  respect  of  any  benefits  derived  or  deemed  to  be 
derived  from  or  in  connection  with  CNH  Industrial  common  shares  and,  if  applicable,  CNH  Industrial  special  voting 
shares, except if: 

(a)

(b)

(c)

the holder derives profits from an enterprise, whether as an entrepreneur or pursuant to a co-entitlement 
to  the  net  value  of  such  enterprise,  other  than  as  a  shareholder,  and  such  enterprise  is  carried  on,  in 
whole  or  in  part,  through  a  permanent  establishment  or  a  permanent  representative  in  the  Netherlands, 
and such holder’s CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares 
are attributable to such permanent establishment or permanent representative; or 

the  holder  benefits  or  is  deemed  to  derive  benefits  from  or  in  connection  with  CNH  Industrial  common 
shares  and,  if  applicable,  CNH  Industrial  special  voting  shares  that  are  taxable  as  benefits  from 
miscellaneous activities performed in the Netherlands; or 

the holder derives profits pursuant to the entitlement to a share in the profits of an enterprise, other than 
as  a  holder  of  securities,  which  is  effectively  managed  in  the  Netherlands  and  to  which  enterprise  CNH 
Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares are attributable.  

Corporate entities
If a Non-Resident holder of CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares is a 
corporate entity, or an entity including an association, a partnership and a mutual fund, taxable as a corporate entity, it 
will  not  be  subject  to  Dutch  corporation  tax  in  respect  of  any  benefits  derived  or  deemed  to  be  derived  from  or  in 
connection with CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares, except if:

(a)

(b)

International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as adopted by the European Union (“EU-IFRS”) and with Part 9 of 
Book  2  of  the  Dutch  Civil  Code. The  designation  “IFRS”  also  includes  International Accounting  Standards  (“IAS”),  as 
well as all interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, modified as required for the measurement 
of  certain  financial  instruments,  as  well  as  on  a  going  concern  basis.  Despite  operating  in  a  continuously  difficult 
economic  and  financial  environment,  including  rising  inflation,  geopolitical  instability  and  the  war  in  the  Ukraine,  the 
Group’s  assessment  is  that  no  material  uncertainties  (as  defined  in  paragraph  25  of  IAS  1)  exist  about  its  ability  to 
continue  as  a  going  concern,  in  view  also  of  the  measures  already  undertaken  by  the  Group  to  preserve  cash  and 
contain costs, and to preserve its industrial and financial flexibility, and its strong liquidity position. 

These  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  are  prepared  using  the  U.S.  dollar  as  the  presentation  currency.  The 
functional currency of the parent company (CNH Industrial N.V.) is the euro. The U.S. dollar presentation currency was 
elected to be used in order to improve comparability with main competitors, mainly in the agriculture and construction 
businesses, and to provide more meaningful information to U.S. investors.

Until December 31, 2021, CNH Industrial N.V. owned and controlled the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business” or the “On-
Highway  Business”),  which  are  classified  as  Discontinued  operations,  as  well  as  the  Agriculture  business,  the 
Construction business, and the related Financial Services business (collectively, the “Off-Highway Business”). Effective 
January 1, 2022, the Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. by way of a Demerger under Dutch 
law (the "Demerger") to Iveco Group N.V. (the "Iveco Group"), and the Iveco Group became a public listed company 
independent from CNH Industrial. Pursuant to the terms of the deeds of demerger entered into between CNH Industrial 
N.V.  and  Iveco  Group  N.V.  on  January  1,  2022,  assets  related  to  the  On-Highway  Business  were  transferred  to,  and 
liabilities related to, the On-Highway Business were retained or assumed by Iveco Group N.V.

Iveco Group Business Spin-off and Discontinued Operations

During 2021, CNH Industrial completed a strategic project to separate the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business”) from the 
Agriculture business, the Construction business, and the related Financial Services business. 

The Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. in accordance with Section 2:334a (3) of the Dutch 
Civil  Code  (Burgerlijk  Wetboek)  by  way  of  a  legal  statutory  demerger  (jurisdiche  afsplitsing)  to  Iveco  Group  N.V.  (the 
"Demerger"), effective January 1, 2022. 

The principal phases leading up to completion of the Demerger were as follows:

▪ On September 3, 2019, CNH Industrial announced at its Capital Markets Day event the intended Demerger.

▪ On December 23, 2021, an Extraordinary General Meeting of CNH Industrial shareholders was held to approve the 

Demerger of Iveco Group Business.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    149

▪ On December 27, 2021, Borsa Italiana has admitted Iveco Group N.V. common shares to listing on Euronext Milan.

▪ Following  receipt  of  the  above  authorizations,  the  deed  of  Demerger  was  executed  on  December  31,  2021,  with 

effectiveness of the Demerger on January 1, 2022.

▪ On January 3, 2022 (the “First Trading Date”) Iveco Group common shares began trading on the regulated market 
Euronext Milan, under the ticker symbol ‘IVG’. As a result of the Demerger, each holder of CNH Industrial common 
shares (and special voting shares as the case may be) received one Iveco Group share for every five CNH Industrial 
common  shares  (or  special  voting  share  as  the  case  may  be)  held  at  close  of  business  on  the  record  date  for 
allocation  (January  4,  2022).  Since  January  3,  2022,  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  Iveco  Group  N.V.  have  been  quoted 
separately on the regulated markets and operate as independent listed companies, each with its own management 
and Board of Directors.

As the transaction took effect on January 1, 2022, the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 
31, 2022 relate to the remaining CNH Industrial business. Moreover, in accordance with IFRS 5 – Non-current Assets 
Held  for  Sale  and  Discontinued  Operations,  for  the  corresponding  information  of  earlier  periods,  the  Iveco  Group 
business is classified and presented as Discontinued Operations in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

For  additional  detail  of  items  presented  under  Discontinued  Operations  in  the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Income, 
Financial  Position  and  Cash  Flows,  refer  to  the  section  "Scope  of  Consolidation  -  Discontinued  Operations  -  Iveco 
Group Business".

Additionally, as the Demerger is a “business combination involving entities or businesses under common control”, it is 
outside the scope of application of IFRS 3 – Business Combinations and IFRIC 17- Distributions of Non-cash Assets to 
Owners.  Accordingly,  in  the  2022  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for  CNH  Industrial  Post-Demerger  the  opening 
position  for  items  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  will  be  equivalent  to  the  carrying  amounts  reported  in  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements of CNH Industrial Pre-Demerger.

Climate related matters

CNH Industrial has an established risk management process that includes the assessment and monitoring of climate-
related risk. These assessments are used by CNH Industrial to identify not only risk exposure, but also opportunities, on 
which the Group’s climate change strategy is based. The identification of these climate-related risks and opportunities, 
along  with  the  analysis  of  sustainability  macrotrends,  led  to  the  definition  of  a  decarbonization  strategy,  which  in  turn 
has  been  incorporated  within,  and  regularly  influences,  the  Group’s  Strategic  Business  Plan.  To  further  address  the 
potential impacts of climate change, CNH Industrial has implemented relevant projects and a number of other specific 
climate-related topics and has defined long-term strategic targets.

There  has  been  increasing  interest  in  how  climate  change  will  impact  the  Group’s  business.  With  reference  to  the 
climate  related  matters,  a  critical  review  was  undertaken,  and  a  focused  analysis  performed  to  identify,  and 
consequently manage, the principal risks and uncertainties to which the Group is exposed. The most significant area of 
effort will be the management of water scarcity and waste and the reducing energy and GHG emissions in the supply 
chain  area.  CNH  Industrial  recognizes  the  importance  of  climate  change  risk  and  promotes  a  responsible  use  of 
resources and a reduction of the environmental impact of production to mitigate climate change. In this context, CNH 
Industrial Group has adopted an environmental policy that applies to all company locations and divisions and has set up 
a structure dedicated to control environmental pollution, waste, and water disposal as well as emission reduction. 

In  particular,  considering  the  financial  statements  information  are  presented  through  historical  values  which,  by  their 
nature,  do  not  fully  capture  future  events,  all  significant  assumptions  and  estimates  underlying  the  preparation  of  the 
following  items  were  subject  to  an  analysis  in  order  to  identify  and  address  the  new  uncertainties  related  to  climate 
changes  which  could  affect  the  business:  going  concern,  inventory  management,  property,  plant  and  equipment, 
goodwill, brands, intangible assets with a finite life, tax reliefs, revenue recognition, provisions and onerous contracts. 
The  analysis  conducted  were  based  on  the  Group  strategy  outlined  in  the  context  of  the  global  supply  chain 
environmental  targets  and  did  not  highlight  any  critical  situations  that  cannot  be  attributable  to  and  addressed  in  the 
ordinary course of the business.

Global Business Conditions

Significant  uncertainties,  including  rising  inflation,  geopolitical  instability,  and  the  war  in  Ukraine,  continue  to  create 
volatility in the global economy. These factors lead to inefficiencies in our manufacturing operations and impact costs. 
We continue to work to mitigate the impact of these issues in order to meet end-market demand. We will continue to 
monitor the situation as conditions remain fluid and evolve.

During the first quarter of 2022, CNH Industrial announced it was suspending non-domestic operations in Russia. CNH 
Industrial  is  supporting  its  businesses  in  this  market  through  the  continuation  of  employee  salaries  and  payment  of 
other  administrative  expenses. As  a  result  of  the  suspension,  we  evaluated  the  carrying  value  of  assets  held  within 
CNH Industrial's Russia operations. Upon completion of the evaluation, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we 
recorded charges of $72 million related to asset write downs, financial receivable allowances and a valuation allowance 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    150

against deferred tax assets. A prolonged war in Ukraine could have further adverse effects on us and our operations in 
Russia. The Russia-Ukraine conflict and the ensuing sanctions to Russia and Belarus and Russian counter-sanctions 
have  created  additional  tensions  in  the  commodity  markets.  CNH  Industrial  has  no  critical  supplier  in  the  affected 
countries, but prices for certain commodities, including natural gas, might create further volatility.

Format of the financial statements

CNH  Industrial  presents  an  income  statement  using  a  classification  based  on  the  function  of  expenses  (otherwise 
known as the “cost of sales” method), rather than one based on their nature, as this is believed to provide information 
that is more relevant. 

For the statement of financial position, a mixed format has been selected to present current and non-current assets and 
liabilities, as permitted by IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements. Legal entities carrying out industrial activities 
and  those  carrying  out  financial  services  are  both  consolidated  in  the  Group’s  financial  statements.  The  investment 
portfolios  of  Financial  Services  are  included  in  current  assets,  as  the  investments  will  be  realized  in  their  normal 
operating cycle. Financial Services, though, obtains funds only partially from the market: the remainder is obtained from 
CNH  Industrial  N.V.  through  its  treasury  legal  entities  (included  in  Industrial  Activities),  which  lend  funds  both  to 
Industrial Activities and to Financial Services legal entities as the need arises. This Financial Services structure within 
the  Group  means  that  any  attempt  to  separate  current  and  non-current  liabilities  in  the  consolidated  statement  of 
financial position is not meaningful. Disclosure of the due dates of liabilities is however provided in the notes.

The statement of cash flows is presented using the indirect method. 

Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries  are  entities  over  which  the  Group  has  control.  Control  is  achieved  when  the  Group  is  exposed,  or  has 
rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its 
power over the investee. 

When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant 
facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

▪ the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;

▪ rights arising from other contractual arrangements;

▪ the Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes 
to  one  or  more  of  the  three  elements  of  control.  The  financial  statements  of  subsidiaries  are  included  in  the 
Consolidated  Financial  Statements  from  the  date  that  control  commences  until  the  date  that  control  ceases.  Non-
controlling  interests  in  the  net  assets  of  consolidated  subsidiaries  and  non-controlling  interests  in  the  profit  or  loss  of 
consolidated  subsidiaries  are  presented  separately  from  the  interests  of  the  owners  of  the  parent  in  the  consolidated 
statement of financial position and income statement respectively. Losses applicable to non-controlling interests which 
exceed the non-controlling interests in the subsidiary’s equity are debited to non-controlling interests. 

Changes in the Group's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the loss of control are accounted for as 
equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the equity attributable to owners of the parent and non-controlling interests 
are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the book value 
of  the  non-controlling  interests  and  the  fair  value  of  the  relevant  consideration  is  recognized  directly  in  the  equity 
attributable to the owners of the parent.

If the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference 
between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the relevant consideration and the fair value of any retained interest and 
(ii)  the  carrying  amount  of  the  assets  (including  goodwill)  and  liabilities  of  the  subsidiary  and  any  non-controlling 
interests. Any profits or losses recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of the subsidiary are accounted for 
as  if  the  subsidiary  had  been  sold  (i.e.,  are  reclassified  to  profit  or  loss  or  transferred  directly  to  retained  earnings 
depending on the applicable IFRS).

Subsidiaries that are either dormant or generate a negligible volume of business, are not consolidated. Their impact on 
the Group’s assets, liabilities, financial position and profit/(loss) attributable to the owners of the parent is immaterial.

Joint ventures

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the 
net  assets  of  the  arrangement.  Joint  control  is  the  contractually  agreed  sharing  of  control  of  an  arrangement,  which 
exists  only  when  decisions  about  the  relevant  activities  require  unanimous  consent  of  the  parties  sharing  control. 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    151

Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method from the date that joint control commences until 
the date that joint control ceases.

Associates

Associates  are  enterprises  over  which  the  Group  has  significant  influence.  As  defined  in  IAS  28  –  Investments  in 
Associates  and  Joint  Ventures,  significant  influence  is  the  power  to  participate  in  the  financial  and  operating  policy 
decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control of those policies. Investments in associates are accounted for 
using  the  equity  method  from  the  date  that  significant  influence  commences  until  the  date  that  significant  influence 
ceases. When the Group’s share of losses of an associate, if any, exceeds the carrying amount of the associate in the 
Group’s  statement  of  financial  position,  the  carrying  amount  is  reduced  to  nil  and  recognition  of  further  losses  is 
discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred obligations in respect of the associate.

Investments in other companies

Investments  in  other  companies  are  measured  at  fair  value.  Equity  investments  for  which  there  is  no  quoted  market 
price in an active market and there is insufficient financial information in order to determine fair value are measured at 
cost  as  an  estimate  of  fair  value,  as  permitted  by  IFRS  9.  The  Group  may  irrevocably  elect  to  present  subsequent 
changes  in  the  investment’s  fair  value  in  other  comprehensive  income  upon  the  initial  recognition  of  an  equity 
investment that is not held to sell. This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis. Dividends received from 
these investments are included in Other income/(expenses) from investments.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

All  significant  intragroup  balances  and  transactions  and  any  unrealized  gains  and  losses  arising  from  intragroup 
transactions  are  eliminated  in  preparing  the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements.  Unrealized  gains  and  losses  arising 
from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in those entities.

Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the foreign exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. 
Monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  at  the  balance  sheet  date  are  translated  at  the 
exchange rate prevailing at that date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting 
monetary  items  at  rates  different  from  those  at  which  they  were  initially  recorded  during  the  period  or  in  previous 
financial statements, are recognized in profit or loss. 

Consolidation of foreign entities

All  assets  and  liabilities  of  subsidiaries  with  a  functional  currency  other  than  the  U.S.  dollar  are  translated  using  the 
exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate 
for  the  period.  Translation  differences  resulting  from  the  application  of  this  method  are  classified  as  equity  until  the 
disposal  of  the  investment. Average  rates  of  exchange  are  used  to  translate  the  cash  flows  of  foreign  subsidiaries  in 
preparing the consolidated statement of cash flows.

The goodwill, assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from the acquisition of entities with a functional currency 
other  than  the  U.S.  dollar  are  recognized  in  the  functional  currency  and  translated  at  the  exchange  rate  at  the 
acquisition date. These balances are subsequently retranslated at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date.

The  Group  applies  IAS  29  -  Financial  reporting  in  hyperinflationary  economies  for  its  subsidiaries  that  prepare  their 
financial statements in a functional currency of a hyperinflationary economy. According to this standard, non-monetary 
assets  and  liabilities  not  yet  translated  into  U.S.  dollar  at  the  reporting  date  are  redetermined  using  a  general  price 
index. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are then translated at the closing spot rate.

The principal exchange rates used to translate into U.S. dollars the financial statements prepared in currencies other 
than the U.S. dollar were as follows:

Euro
Pound sterling
Swiss franc
Polish zloty
Brazilian real
Canadian dollar
Argentine peso(1)
Turkish lira(2)

(1)  From July 1, 2018, Argentina’s economy was considered to be hyperinflationary. After the same date, transactions for entities with the Argentine peso as the functional currency were translated using the closing spot rate.From 

January 1st, 2023 on, the functional currency of the industrial legal entity changed to USD, only the financial services legal entity remains with the Argentinean Pesos as functional currency.

(2)  Starting from 2022, Turkey’s economy was considered to be hyperinflationary. After the same date, transactions for entities with the Turkish lira as the functional currency were translated using the closing spot rate.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    152

Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Under this method:

▪ the consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of 
the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred and liabilities assumed by the Group and the equity interests 
issued in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized in profit or loss as 
incurred;

▪ at the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair value at 
that  date,  except  for  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities,  assets  and  liabilities  relating  to  employee  benefit 
arrangements,  liabilities  or  equity  instruments  relating  to  share-based  payment  arrangements  of  the  acquiree  or 
share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the 
acquire, assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale, which are measured in accordance with the 
relevant standard;

▪ goodwill  is  measured  as  the  excess  of  the  aggregate  of  the  consideration  transferred  in  the  business  combination, 
the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity 
interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the 
liabilities  assumed.  If  the  net  of  the  acquisition-date  amounts  of  the  identifiable  assets  acquired  and  liabilities 
assumed  exceeds  the  aggregate  of  the  consideration  transferred,  the  amount  of  any  non-controlling  interest  in  the 
acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized 
immediately in profit or loss as a gain from a bargain purchase;

▪ non-controlling interest is initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share 
of  the  acquiree's  identifiable  net  assets.  The  selection  of  the  measurement  method  is  made  on  a  transaction-by-
transaction basis;

▪ any contingent consideration arrangement in the business combination is measured at its acquisition-date fair value 
and  included  as  part  of  the  consideration  transferred  in  the  business  combination  in  order  to  determine  goodwill. 
Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  contingent  consideration  that  qualify  as  measurement  period  adjustments  are 
recognized  retrospectively,  with  corresponding  adjustments  to  goodwill.  Measurement  period  adjustments  are 
adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which may not exceed 
one  year  from  the  acquisition  date)  about  facts  and  circumstances  that  existed  as  of  the  acquisition  date.  Any 
changes in fair value after the measurement period are recognized in profit or loss.

When  a  business  combination  is  achieved  in  stages,  the  Group's  previously  held  equity  interest  in  the  acquiree  is 
remeasured  at  its  acquisition-date  fair  value  and  the  resulting  gain  or  loss,  if  any,  is  recognized  in  profit  or  loss. 
Changes  in  the  equity  interest  in  the  acquiree  that  have  been  recognized  in  Other  comprehensive  income  in  prior 
reporting periods are reclassified to profit or loss as if the interest had been disposed of. 

If  the  initial  accounting  for  a  business  combination  is  incomplete  by  the  end  of  the  reporting  period  in  which  the 
combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete in the 
Consolidated Financial Statements. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the above-mentioned measurement 
period to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date which, if 
known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date. 

Business combinations that took place prior to January 1, 2010 were accounted for in accordance with the version of 
IFRS 3 effective before the 2008 amendments, as permitted by the revised standard.

Fair value measurement

Some of the Group’s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date. Fair value is the price 
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants 
at the measurement date.

In  estimating  the  fair  value  of  an  asset  or  a  liability,  the  Group  uses  valuation  techniques  that  are  appropriate  in  the 
circumstances  and  for  which  sufficient  data  are  available  to  measure  fair  value,  maximizing  the  use  of  relevant 
observable  inputs  and  minimizing  the  use  of  unobservable  inputs.  Additional  information  about  fair  value,  fair  value 
hierarchy, valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is provided in Note 
18 "Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities", Note 31 "Fair value measurement" and, where required, in the individual 
notes relating to the assets and liabilities whose fair value were determined.

In addition, fair value measurements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the 
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair 
value measurement in its entirety:
▪ Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at 

the measurement date;

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    153

▪ Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either 

directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) on the market;

▪ Level 3 — inputs that are not based on observable market data.

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill  is  not  amortized,  but  is  tested  for  impairment  annually  or  more  frequently  if  events  or  changes  in 
circumstances  indicate  that  it  might  be  impaired.  After  initial  recognition,  goodwill  is  measured  at  cost  less  any 
accumulated impairment losses.

Development costs

Development costs for agricultural and construction equipment project are recognized as an asset if and only if both of 
the following conditions are met: a) development costs can be measured reliably, and b) the technical feasibility of the 
product, volumes and pricing support the view that the development expenditure will generate future economic benefits. 
Capitalized  development  costs  include  all  direct  and  indirect  costs  that  may  be  directly  attributed  to  the  development 
process. 

Capitalized development costs for agricultural and construction equipment are amortized on a systematic basis over a 
period of 5 years.

All other development costs are expensed as incurred.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives principally consist of acquired trademarks which have no legal, regulatory, 
contractual, competitive, economic, or other factor that limits their useful life. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful 
life are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually or more frequently whenever there is an indication that the 
asset may be impaired.

Other intangible assets

Other  purchased  and  internally-generated  intangible  assets  are  recognized  as  assets  in  accordance  with  IAS  38  –
 Intangible Assets, where it is probable that the use of the asset will generate future economic benefits and where the 
costs of the asset can be determined reliably. 

Such  assets  are  measured  at  purchase  or  manufacturing  cost  and  amortized  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  their 
estimated useful lives, if these assets have finite useful lives.

Other intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition of a business are capitalized separately from goodwill if their 
fair value can be measured reliably.

Property, plant and equipment

Cost

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. 

Subsequent  expenditures  and  the  cost  of  replacing  parts  of  an  asset  are  capitalized  only  if  they  increase  the  future 
economic benefits embodied in that asset. All other expenditures are expensed as incurred. When such replacement 
costs are capitalized, the carrying amount of the parts that are replaced is recognized in profit or loss.

Depreciation

Depreciation  is  recorded  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  estimated  useful  lives  of  the  respective  assets  as  follows:

Buildings
Plant, machinery and equipment
Other assets

Land is not depreciated.

Lease accounting policy

Depreciation rates

2.5% - 10%

A lease is a contract that conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset (the leased asset) for a period of 
time in exchange for consideration. The lease term determined by the Group comprises the non-cancellable period of 

Board Report   Corporate Governance    154

lease contract together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to 
exercise that option; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to 
exercise  that  option.  For  real  estate  leases,  this  assessment  is  based  on  an  analysis  by  management  of  all  relevant 
facts  and  circumstances  including  the  leased  asset’s  purpose,  the  economic  and  practical  potential  for  replacing  and 
any  plans  that  the  Group  has  in  place  for  the  future  use  of  the  asset.  The  Group  combines  lease  and  non-lease 
components.

For  leases  with  terms  not  exceeding  twelve  months  (short-term  leases)  and  for  leases  of  low-value  assets,  CNH 
Industrial recognizes the lease payments associated with those leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term as 
operating expense in the income statement.

For all other leases, at the commencement date (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use), CNH Industrial 
recognizes  a  right-of-use  asset,  classified  within  Property,  plant  and  equipment,  and  a  lease  liability,  classified  within 
Other Debt.

At the commencement date, the right-of-use asset includes the amount of lease liability recognized, initial direct costs 
incurred,  and  lease  payments  made  at  or  before  the  commencement  date  less  any  lease  incentives  received. At  the 
same  date,  the  lease  liability  is  measured  at  the  present  value  of  lease  payments  to  be  made  over  the  lease  term, 
discounted  using  the  interest  rate  implicit  in  the  lease  or,  if  that  rate  cannot  be  readily  determined,  the  Group's 
incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate is determined considering macro-economic factors such as 
the specific interest rate curve based on the relevant currency and term, as well as specific factors contributing to CNH 
Industrial’s  credit  spread.  The  Group  primarily  uses  the  incremental  borrowing  rate  as  the  discount  rate  for  its  lease 
liabilities. 

After the commencement date, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any 
accumulated  impairment  losses,  and  adjusted  for  any  remeasurement  of  the  lease  liability.  The  right-of-use  asset  is 
depreciated on a straight-line basis. If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of 
the  lease  term  or  if  the  cost  of  the  right-of-use  asset  reflects  that  the  Group  will  exercise  a  purchase  option,  CNH 
Industrial depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying 
asset. Otherwise, the Group depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of 
the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. After the commencement date, the lease liability is 
increased to reflect the accretion of interest, recognized within Financial income/(expenses) in the income statement, 
reduced for the lease payments made, and remeasured to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications. 

Before  the  adoption  of  IFRS  16,  where  CNH  Industrial  entered  as  lessee  in  a  lease  contract  classified  as  finance, 
assuming  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership,  assets  held  under  finance  lease  were  recognized  as 
assets of the Group at the lower of fair value or present value of the minimum lease payments and depreciated. The 
corresponding liability to the lessor was included in the financial statement as a debt. Where CNH Industrial entered as 
lessee  in  a  lease  contract  classified  as  operating,  the  lessor  retained  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of 
ownership of the asset. Operating lease expenditures were expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. 

Lessor accounting

Lease contracts where CNH Industrial acts as a lessor, can be classified as either an operating lease or finance lease. 
Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. 
Leases that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset to the lessee 
are classified as a finance leases.

Where CNH Industrial is the lessor in a finance lease, the future minimum lease payments from lessees are classified 
as Receivables from financing activities. Lease payments are recognized as repayment of the principal, and financial 
income remunerating the initial investment and the services provided. 

Where CNH Industrial is the lessor in an operating lease, income from operating leases is recognized over the term of 
the lease on a straight-line basis. Leased assets include equipment leased to retail customers by the Group's leasing 
companies. They are stated at cost and depreciated at annual rates of between 20% and 33%.

CNH  Industrial  evaluates  the  carrying  amount  of  equipment  on  operating  leases  for  potential  impairment  when  it 
determines  a  triggering  event  has  occurred.  When  a  triggering  event  occurs,  a  test  for  recoverability  is  performed 
comparing  projected  undiscounted  future  cash  flows  to  the  carrying  amount  of  the  asset.  If  the  test  for  recoverability 
identifies  a  possible  impairment,  the  asset’s  fair  value  is  measured  in  accordance  with  the  fair  value  measurement 
framework.  An  impairment  charge  would  be  recognized  for  the  amount  by  which  the  carrying  amount  of  the  asset 
exceeds its estimated fair value.

When  leased  assets  are  no  longer  leased  and  become  held  for  sale,  the  Group  reclassifies  their  carrying  amount  to 
Inventories.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing  costs  that  are  directly  attributable  to  the  acquisition,  construction  or  production  of  qualifying  assets  (as 
defined  under  IAS  23  –  Borrowing  Costs),  which  are  assets  that  necessarily  take  a  substantial  period  of  time  to  get 
ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalized and amortized over the useful life of the class of assets to which 
they refer.

All other borrowing costs are expensed when incurred. 

Impairment of assets

The Group reviews, at least annually, the recoverability of the carrying amount of intangible assets (including capitalized 
development costs) and property, plant and equipment, in order to determine whether there is any indication that those 
assets  have  suffered  an  impairment  loss.  Goodwill  and  Intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives  are  tested  for 
impairment annually or more frequently, if there is an indication that an asset may be impaired.

If indicators of impairment are present, the carrying amount of the assets is reduced to its recoverable amount that is 
the higher of its fair value less disposal costs and its value in use. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable 
amount  of  an  individual  asset,  the  Group  estimates  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  cash-generating  unit  to  which  the 
asset  belongs.  In  assessing  its  value  in  use,  the  pre-tax  estimated  future  cash  flows  are  discounted  to  their  present 
value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks 
specific to the asset. An impairment loss is recognized when the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

Where  a  previous  impairment  loss  for  assets  other  than  goodwill  no  longer  exists  or  has  decreased,  the  carrying 
amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased up to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in 
excess of the carrying amount that would have been recorded had no impairment loss been recognized. A reversal of 
an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately.

Financial instruments

Presentation

Financial instruments held by the Group are presented and measured in the financial statements as described in the 
following paragraphs.

Investments and other non-current financial assets comprise investments in unconsolidated companies and other non-
current financial assets (securities, and other non-current financial receivables).

Current  financial  assets  include  trade  receivables,  receivables  from  financing  activities  (retail  financing,  dealer 
financing, lease financing and other current loans to third parties), current securities and other current financial assets 
(which include derivative financial instruments stated at fair value as assets), as well as cash and cash equivalents. 

Current securities include short-term or marketable securities which represent temporary investments of available funds 
and do not satisfy the requirements for being classified as cash equivalents.

Financial liabilities refer to debt, which includes asset-backed financing (“ABS”), and derivative liabilities (which include 
derivative financial instruments stated at fair value as liabilities), trade payables and other liabilities.

Measurement

Investments in unconsolidated companies classified as non-current financial assets are accounted for as described in 
the paragraph “Basis of consolidation”.

In accordance with IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, financial assets are classified as measured at either amortized cost 
("AC"),  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive  income  ("FVTOCI")  or  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  ("FVTPL"), 
depending  on  the  business  model  for  managing  such  financial  assets  and  the  asset’s  contractual  cash  flow 
characteristics. Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Financial  assets  and  current  securities  acquired  through  a  regular  way  purchase  are  recognized  on  the  basis  of  the 
settlement  date  and,  on  initial  recognition,  are  measured  at  fair  value,  including  transaction  costs.  Subsequent 
measurement depends on the business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. 

Assets  that  are  held  for  collection  of  contractual  cash  flows,  where  those  cash  flows  represent  solely  payments  of 
principal and interest, are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Receivables with maturities 
of over one year which bear no interest or an interest rate significantly lower than market rates are discounted using 
market rates.

Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the asset’s cash 
flows  represents  solely  payments  of  principal  and  interests,  are  measured  at  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive 
income.  Gains  and  losses  on  assets  measured  at  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive  income  are  recognized 
directly in other comprehensive income until the financial asset is disposed of or is determined to be impaired; when the 
asset  is  disposed  of,  the  cumulative  gains  or  losses,  including  those  previously  recognized  in  other  comprehensive 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    156

income, are reclassified to profit or loss; when the asset is impaired, impairment losses are recognized to profit or loss. 
Interest income from these financial assets is included in financial income. 

As a result of the Group's business model, trade receivables and receivables from financing activities are subsequently 
measured at amortized cost.

Assessments are made regularly as to whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of assets 
may  be  impaired.  If  any  such  evidence  exists,  an  impairment  loss  is  included  in  profit  or  loss  for  the  period.  The 
recognition of an impairment is based on expected credit losses.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks, units in liquidity funds, other money market securities and other cash 
equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Money market securities 
consist  of  investments  in  high  quality,  short-term,  diversified  financial  instruments  that  can  generally  be  liquidated  on 
demand and are measured at FVTPL. Cash at banks and Other cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.

Derivatives financial assets and liabilities are measured either at fair value through other comprehensive income (when 
in an hedging relationship) or at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial  assets  and  liabilities  hedged  by  derivative  instruments  are  measured  in  accordance  with  hedge  accounting 
principles applicable to fair value hedges: gains and losses arising from remeasurement at fair value, due to changes in 
the  respective  hedged  risk,  are  recognized  in  profit  or  loss  and  are  offset  by  the  effective  portion  of  the  loss  or  gain 
arising from remeasurement at fair value of the hedging instrument.

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative  financial  instruments  are  used  for  hedging  purposes,  in  order  to  reduce  currency,  interest  rate  and  market 
price risks. In accordance with IFRS 9, derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting only when, at the 
inception of the hedge, there is formal designation and documentation of the hedging relationship and the entity’s risk 
management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, there is an economic relationship between the hedging 
instrument  and  the  hedged  item,  credit  risk  does  not  dominate  the  value  changes  that  result  from  the  economic 
relationship, and the hedging ratio in the hedging relationship reflects the actual quantity of the hedging instruments and 
the  hedged  item.  Further  details  on  qualifying  criteria  are  included  in  Note  18  “Derivative  assets  and  Derivative 
liabilities” and Note 30 “Information on financial risks”.

When derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting, the following accounting treatment applies:

▪ Fair value hedges – where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the exposure to changes in 
fair value of a recognized asset or liability that is attributable to a particular risk and could affect profit or loss, the gain 
or loss from remeasuring the hedging instrument at fair value is recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss on the 
hedged item attributable to the hedged risk adjusts the carrying amount of the hedged item and is recognized in profit 
or loss.

▪ Cash flow hedges – where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the exposure to variability in 
future cash flows of a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction and could affect profit or 
loss,  the  effective  portion  of  any  gain  or  loss  on  the  derivative  financial  instrument  is  recognized  directly  in  other 
comprehensive  income  in  the  cash  flow  hedge  reserve.  The  cumulative  gain  or  loss  is  removed  from  other 
comprehensive  income  and  recognized  in  profit  or  loss  at  the  same  time  as  the  economic  effect  arising  from  the 
hedged item affects income. The gain or loss associated with a hedge or part of a hedge that has become ineffective 
is  recognized  in  profit  or  loss  immediately.  When  a  hedging  instrument  or  hedge  relationship  is  terminated  but  the 
hedged transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss realized to the point of termination remains 
in  other  comprehensive  income  and  is  recognized  in  profit  or  loss  at  the  same  time  as  the  underlying  transaction 
occurs.  If  the  hedged  transaction  is  no  longer  probable,  the  cumulative  unrealized  gain  or  loss  held  in  other 
comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss immediately.

If  hedge  accounting  cannot  be  applied,  the  gains  or  losses  from  the  fair  value  measurement  of  derivative  financial 
instruments are recognized immediately in profit or loss. 

Transfers of financial assets

The Group derecognizes financial assets when the contractual rights to the cash flows arising from the assets are no 
longer held or if it transfers the financial activities, as follows:

▪ if the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, it derecognizes the 
financial  asset  and  recognizes  separately  as  assets  or  liabilities  any  possible  rights  and  obligations  created  or 
retained in the transfer;

▪ if  the  Group  retains  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  of  the  financial  asset,  it  continues  to 

recognize the financial asset;

▪ if the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, it 

determines whether it has retained control of the financial asset. In this case:

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    157

▪ if  the  Group  has  not  maintained  control,  it  derecognizes  the  financial  asset  and  recognizes  separately  as  assets 

and liabilities any possible rights and obligations created or retained in the transfer;

▪ if  the  Group  has  retained  control,  it  continues  to  recognize  the  financial  asset  to  the  extent  of  its  continuing 

involvement in the financial asset.

On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the consideration 
received or receivable for the transfer of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

Inventories

Inventories  of  raw  materials,  semi-finished  products  and  finished  goods  (including  assets  leased  out  under  operating 
lease) are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. Cost includes 
the  direct  costs  of  materials,  labor  and  indirect  costs  (variable  and  fixed).  Provision  is  made  for  obsolete  and  slow-
moving raw materials, finished goods, spare parts and other supplies based on their expected future use and realizable 
value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of 
completion and the estimated costs for sale and distribution.

Assets and liabilities held for sale 

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be principally recovered through a sale 
transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable, 
with the sale expected to be completed within one year from the date of classification, and the non-current asset (or the 
disposal  group)  is  available  for  immediate  sale  in  its  present  condition  subject  only  to  terms  that  are  usual  and 
customary  for  sales  of  such  asset  (or  disposal  group).  When  the  Group  is  committed  to  a  sale  plan  involving  loss  of 
control of a subsidiary, all of the assets and liabilities of that subsidiary are classified as held for sale when the criteria 
described above are met, regardless of whether the Group will retain a non-controlling interest in its former subsidiary 
after the sale.

Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amounts 
and fair value less costs to sell.

Employee benefits

Pension plans

The  present  value  of  a  defined  benefit  obligation  and  the  related  current  service  cost  (and  past  service  cost,  where 
applicable)  for  defined  benefit  pension  plans  are  determined  on  an  actuarial  basis  using  the  projected  unit  credit 
method. 

The net defined benefit liability that the Group recognizes in the statement of financial position represents the present 
value of the defined benefit obligation reduced by the fair value of any plan assets (deficit). In case of a surplus, a net 
defined benefit asset is recognized at the lower of the surplus and the asset ceiling.

Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability/asset (that comprise: a) actuarial gains and losses, b) return on plan 
assets,  excluding  amounts  included  in  net  interest  on  the  net  defined  benefit  liability/asset,  and  c)  any  change  in  the 
effect  of  the  asset  ceiling,  excluding  amounts  included  in  net  interest  on  the  net  defined  benefit  liability/asset)  are 
recognized directly in other comprehensive income without reclassification to profit or loss in subsequent years.

Past service cost resulting from a plan amendment (the introduction or withdrawal of, or changes to, a defined benefit 
plan)  or  a  curtailment  (a  significant  reduction  in  the  number  of  employees  covered  by  a  plan)  and  gain  or  loss  on 
settlements (a transaction that eliminates all further legal or constructive obligations for part or all of the benefits) are 
recognized  in  profit  or  loss  in  the  period  in  which  they  occur  (or,  in  case  of  past  service  costs,  when  the  entity 
recognizes related restructuring costs or termination benefits, if earlier).

Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset and is recognized as 
Financial  income/(expenses)  in  profit  or  loss.  Current  service  cost  and  all  other  costs  and  income  arising  from  the 
measurement of pension plan provisions are allocated to costs by function in profit or loss.

Post-employment plans other than pensions

The Group provides certain post-employment defined benefits, mainly healthcare plans. The method of accounting and 
the frequency of valuations are similar to those used for defined benefit pension plans.

Defined contribution plans

Costs arising from defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense in profit or loss as incurred.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    158

Share-based compensation plans

The  Group  provides  additional  benefits  to  certain  members  of  senior  management  and  employees  through  equity 
compensation plans (stock option plans and stock grants). In accordance with IFRS 2 – Share-based Payment, these 
plans represent a component of recipient remuneration. The compensation expense, corresponding to the fair value of 
the instruments at the grant date, is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period 
for each separately vesting portion of an award, with the offsetting credit recognized directly in equity. Any subsequent 
changes to fair value do not have any effect on the initial measurement.

Provisions

The Group records provisions when it has an obligation, legal or constructive, to a third party, as a result from a past 
event,  when  it  is  probable  that  an  outflow  of  Group  resources  will  be  required  to  satisfy  the  obligation  and  when  a 
reliable estimate of the amount can be made.

Changes in estimates are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the change occurs.

Treasury shares

Treasury shares are presented as a deduction from equity. The original cost of treasury shares and the proceeds of any 
subsequent sale are presented as movements in equity.

Revenue recognition

Revenue  is  recognized  when  control  of  the  equipment,  services  or  parts  has  been  transferred  and  the  Group’s 
performance obligations to the customers have been satisfied. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration 
the Group expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services.

The  timing  of  when  the  Group  transfers  the  goods  or  services  to  the  customer  may  differ  from  the  timing  of  the 
customer’s payment.

Revenues  are  stated  net  of  discounts,  allowances,  settlement  discounts  and  rebates,  as  well  as  costs  for  sales 
incentive  programs,  which  are  determined  on  the  basis  of  historical  costs,  country  by  country,  and  charged  against 
profit for the period in which the corresponding sales are recognized. 

The  Group  also  enters  into  contracts  with  multiple  performance  obligations.  For  these  contracts,  the  Group  allocates 
revenue  from  the  transaction  price  to  the  distinct  goods  and  services  in  the  contract  on  a  relative  standalone  selling 
price basis. To the extent the Group sells the goods or services separately in the same market, the standalone selling 
price is the observable price at which the Group sells the goods or services separately. For all other goods or services, 
the  Group  estimates  the  standalone  selling  price  considering  all  information,  reasonably  available  (including  market 
conditions, entity-specific factors and information about the customer or class of customer).

Sales of goods

The Group has determined that the customers from the sale of equipment and parts are generally dealers, distributors 
and retail customers.

CNH Industrial recognizes revenue at a point in time when control has transferred to the customer at a sales price that 
CNH Industrial expects to receive. Transfer of control occurs when title and risk of ownership have transferred to the 
customer,  which  occurs  based  upon  the  terms  specified  in  the  contract.  In  most  of  the  jurisdictions  where  CNH 
Industrial operates, and subject to specific exceptions, transfer of control occurs upon shipment.

For  all  sales,  no  significant  uncertainty  exists  surrounding  the  purchaser’s  obligation  to  pay  for  equipment  and  parts. 
The  Group  records  appropriate  allowance  for  credit  losses  and  anticipated  returns  as  required.  Fixed  payment 
schedules exist for all sales, but payment terms vary by geographic market and product line. 

The cost of incentives, if any, are estimated at the inception of a contract at the amount that is expected to be paid and 
is  recognized  as  a  reduction  to  revenue  at  the  time  of  the  sale.  If  an  equipment  contract  transaction  has  multiple 
performance obligations, the cost of incentives is allocated entirely to the equipment as the intent of the incentives is to 
encourage sales of equipment. If the estimate of the incentive changes following the sale to the customer, the change in 
estimate  is  recognized  as  an  adjustment  to  revenue  in  the  period  of  the  change.  CNH  Industrial  grants  certain  sales 
incentives to support sales of its products to retail customers. At the later of the time of sale or the time an incentive is 
announced  to  dealers,  CNH  Industrial  records  the  estimated  impact  of  sales  allowances  in  the  form  of  dealer  and 
customer  incentives  as  a  reduction  of  revenue.  Subsequent  adjustments  to  sales  incentive  programs  related  to 
products  previously  sold  are  recognized  as  an  adjustment  to  revenues  in  the  period  the  adjustment  is  determinable. 
The determination of sales allowances requires management to make estimates based upon historical data, estimated 
future  market  demand  for  products,  field  inventory  levels,  announced  incentive  programs,  competitive  pricing  and 
interest rates, among other things.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    159

With reference to the sales to dealers accompanied by “floor plan” agreements under which the Group offers wholesale 
financing  including  “interest-free”  financing  for  a  specified  period  of  time  (which  also  vary  by  geographic  market  and 
product  line),  two  separate  performance  obligations  exist. The  first  performance  obligation  consists  of  the  sale  of  the 
equipment from Industrial Activities to the dealer. Concurrent with the sale of the equipment, Industrial Activities offers 
to  the  dealer  wholesale  financing  through  loans  extended  by  Financial  Services.  Industrial  Activities  compensates 
Financial  Services  for  the  cost  of  the  interest-free  period.  This  cost  has  been  determined  to  represent  a  cash  sale 
incentive  on  the  initial  sale  of  the  good,  and  therefore  it  should  be  recognized  upfront  as  a  reduction  of  net  sales  of 
Industrial Activities. The  second  performance  obligation  consists  of  a  credit  facility  extended  by  Financial  Services  to 
the  dealer.  The  remuneration  for  this  performance  obligation  is  represented  by  the  compensation  received  from 
Industrial Activities for the period of the interest-free financing and by the interest charged to dealer for the remaining 
period. This remuneration is recognized by Financial Services over the period of the outstanding exposure.

For  parts  sales,  when  the  Group  provides  its  customers  with  a  right  to  return  a  transferred  product,  revenue  and 
corresponding  cost  of  sales  are  recognized  for  parts  that  are  not  expected  to  be  returned. The  expected  returns  are 
estimated  based  on  an  analysis  of  historical  experience.  The  portion  of  revenue  (and  corresponding  cost  of  sales) 
related to the parts that are expected to be returned is recognized at the end of the return period. The amount received 
or receivable that is expected to be returned is recognized as a refund liability, representing the obligation to return the 
customer’s consideration. 

Furthermore, at the time of the initial sale, CNH Industrial recognizes a return asset for the right to recover the goods 
returned  by  the  customer.  This  asset  is  initially  measured  at  the  former  carrying  amount  of  the  inventory.  At  each 
reporting date, both the refund liability and the return asset are remeasured to record for any revisions to the expected 
level of returns, as well as any decreases in the value of the returned products.

Rendering of services

Revenues from services provided are primarily comprised of extended warranties and maintenance and repair services 
and are recognized over the contract period when the costs are incurred, that is when the claims are charged by the 
dealer.  Amounts  invoiced  to  customers  for  which  CNH  Industrial  receives  consideration  before  the  performance  is 
satisfied are recognized as contract liability. These services are either separately-priced or included in the selling price 
of the equipment. In the second case, revenue for the services is allocated based on the estimated stand-alone selling 
price. In the event that the costs expected to be incurred to satisfy the remaining performance obligations exceed the 
transaction price, an estimated contract loss is recognized. 

Shipping and other transportation activities performed as an agent are recognized on a net basis, which is netting the 
related freight cost against the freight revenue.

Finance and interest income 

Finance  and  interest  income  on  retail  and  other  notes  receivables  and  finance  leases  is  recorded  using  the  effective 
yield  method.  Deferred  costs  on  the  origination  of  financing  receivables  are  recognized  as  a  reduction  in  finance 
revenue over the expected lives of the receivables using the effective yield method. When a financial asset becomes 
credit-impaired  and  is,  therefore,  regarded  as  “Stage  3”,  CNH  Industrial  calculates  interest  income  by  applying  the 
effective interest rate to the net amortized cost of the financial asset. If the financial asset cures and is no longer credit-
impaired, CNH Industrial reverts to calculating interest income on a gross basis. Receivables are considered past due if 
the  required  principal  and  interest  payments  have  not  been  received  as  of  the  date  such  payments  were  due. 
Delinquency is reported on receivables greater than 30 days past due. Charge-offs of principal amounts of receivables 
outstanding are deducted from the allowance at the point when it is determined to be probable that all amounts due will 
not be collected.

Rents and other income on operating leases 

Income from operating leases is recognized over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales comprises the cost of manufacturing products and the acquisition cost of purchased merchandise which 
has  been  sold.  It  includes  all  directly  attributable  material  and  production  costs  and  all  production  overheads.  These 
include  the  depreciation  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  and  the  amortization  of  intangible  assets  relating  to 
production and write-downs of inventories. Cost of sales also includes freight and insurance costs relating to deliveries 
to dealers and agency fees in the case of direct sales.

Cost  of  sales  also  includes  provisions  made  to  cover  the  estimated  cost  of  product  warranties  at  the  time  of  sale  to 
dealer networks or to the end customer. 

Expenses which are directly attributable to the Financial Services business, including the interest expense related to the 
financing of Financial Services business as a whole and charges for risk provisions and write-downs, are reported in 
cost of sales.

Research and development costs

This item includes research costs, development costs not eligible for capitalization and the amortization of development 
costs recognized as assets in accordance with IAS 38.

Government grants

Government grants are recognized in the financial statements when there is reasonable assurance that the company 
concerned  will  comply  with  the  conditions  for  receiving  such  grants  and  that  the  grants  themselves  will  be  received. 
Government grants are recognized as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which 
they are intended to offset.

The benefit of a government loan at a below-market rate of interest is treated as a government grant. The benefit of the 
below-market rate of interest is measured as the difference between the initial carrying amount of the loan (fair value 
plus transaction costs) and the proceeds received, and is accounted for in accordance with the policies already used for 
the recognition of government grants.

Income taxes

Income taxes include all taxes based upon the taxable profits of the Group. Taxes on income are recognized in profit or 
loss except to the extent they relate to items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income, in which 
case the related tax effects are recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. Provisions for income 
taxes arising on the distribution of a subsidiary’s undistributed profits are only made where there is a current intention to 
distribute such profits. Deferred taxes are provided using the full liability method. They are calculated on all temporary 
differences  between  the  tax  base  of  an  asset  or  liability  and  the  carrying  amounts  in  the  Consolidated  Financial 
Statements,  except  for  those  arising  from  non-tax-deductible  goodwill  and  for  those  related  to  investments  in 
subsidiaries  where  it  is  possible  to  control  the  reversal  of  the  differences  and  reversal  will  not  take  place  in  the 
foreseeable  future.  Deferred  tax  assets  relating  to  the  carry-forward  of  unused  tax  losses  and  tax  credits,  as  well  as 
those  arising  from  temporary  differences,  are  recognized  to  the  extent  it  is  probable  future  profits  will  be  available 
against which they can be utilized. Current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when the income 
taxes  are  levied  by  the  same  taxation  authority  and  where  there  is  a  legally  enforceable  right  of  offset.  Deferred  tax 
assets and liabilities are measured at the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates of the relevant tax jurisdictions that 
are expected to apply to taxable income during the period or periods in which the temporary differences reverse. The 
Group recognizes tax liabilities for uncertain tax treatments when tax risks arising from positions taken by the Group are 
considered  probable,  assuming  the  tax  authorities  have  full  knowledge  of  all  relevant  information  when  making  their 
examination.  In  doing  so,  the  Group  evaluates  whether  to  consider  each  uncertain  tax  treatment  separately  or  jointly 
consider multiple uncertain tax treatments, using the approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. The 
liabilities recognized correspond to the amounts expected to be paid. Other taxes not based on taxable profits, such as 
property taxes and taxes on capital, are included in operating expenses.

Dividends

Dividends  payable  by  the  Group  are  reported  as  a  change  in  equity  in  the  period  in  which  they  are  approved  by  the 
Company’s shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (“AGM”).

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the Profit/(loss) attributable to owners of the parent by the weighted 
average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Special voting shares are not included in the earnings 
per share calculation as they are not eligible for dividends and have only limited economic rights. For diluted earnings 
per  share,  the  weighted  average  number  of  common  shares  outstanding  is  adjusted  assuming  conversion  of  dilutive 
potential common shares. 

Use of estimates

These  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  EU-IFRS  which  requires  CNH 
Industrial  to  make  judgments,  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities, 
disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities,  and  reported  amounts  of  income  and  expenses.  The  estimates  and 
related assumptions are based on available information at the date of preparation of the financial statements, historical 
experience and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from the estimates.

Particularly in light of the current economic uncertainty, developments may occur which may differ from CNH Industrial's 
estimates  and  assumptions,  and  therefore  might  require  significant  adjustments  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  certain 
items, which as of the date of these Consolidated Financial Statements cannot be accurately estimated or predicted.

The  principal  items  affected  by  estimates  are  the  allowances  for  doubtful  accounts  receivable  and  inventories,  non-
current  assets  (tangible  and  intangible  assets),  the  residual  values  of  assets  leased  out  under  operating  lease 

Board Report   Corporate Governance    161

arrangements, sales allowances, product warranties, pension and other post-employment benefits, deferred tax assets 
and contingent liabilities.

Estimates  and  assumptions  are  reviewed  periodically  and  the  effects  of  any  changes  are  recognized  in  the  period  in 
which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if 
the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the critical judgments and the key assumptions concerning the future that CNH Industrial has made in 
the process of applying its accounting policies and that may have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized 
in  its  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  or  that  represent  a  significant  risk  of  causing  a  material  adjustment  to  the 
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  for  trade  receivables  and  contract  assets  reflects  CNH  Industrial’s  estimate  of 
expected lifetime credit losses, and it is measured at an amount equal to the present value of the cash shortfalls over 
the expected life of the financial asset. 

The allowance for doubtful accounts for receivables from financing activities reflects management’s estimate of forward 
looking  expected  credit  losses  (“ECL”)  in  the  retail  and  wholesale  portfolios.  This  requires  considerable  judgement 
about  how  changes  in  economic  factors  affect  ECLs,  which  is  determined  on  a  probability-weighted  basis.  The  ECL 
model  applies  to  financial  assets  accounted  for  at  amortized  cost  and  at  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive 
income, lease receivables, and certain loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. The loss allowances will 
be measured on either of the following bases:
▪ 12 month ECLs: these are ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; 

and

▪ lifetime  ECLs:  these  are  ECLs  that  result  from  all  possible  default  events  over  the  expected  life  of  a  financial 

instrument.

Refer  to  Note  17  “Current  receivables  and  Other  current  financial  assets”  for  additional  details  on  the  calculation  of 
allowance for credit losses. 

Allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory

The allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory reflects management’s estimate of the expected loss in value, 
and has been determined on the basis of past experience and historical and expected future trends in the used vehicle 
market. A worsening of the economic and financial situation could cause a further deterioration in conditions in the used 
vehicle  market  compared  to  that  taken  into  consideration  in  calculating  the  allowances  recognized  in  the  financial 
statements.

Recoverability of non-current assets (including goodwill)

Non-current assets include property, plant and equipment, intangible assets (including goodwill), investments and other 
non-current  financial  assets.  The  Group  reviews  the  carrying  value  of  non-current  assets  held  and  used  and  that  of 
assets to be disposed of when events and circumstances warrant such a review. For goodwill and intangible assets with 
indefinite useful lives such analysis is carried out at least annually.

The analysis of the recoverable amount of non-current assets other than goodwill is usually performed using estimates 
of  future  expected  cash  flows  from  the  use  or  disposal  of  the  asset  and  an  appropriate  discount  rate  in  order  to 
calculate present value. If the carrying amount is deemed to be impaired, the Group recognizes an impairment loss for 
the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated recoverable amount from use or disposal 
determined by reference to the cash flows included in its most recent business forecasts.

Goodwill impairment test is performed at the cash generating unit level, the segment level. The recoverable amount of 
the cash generating units is determined using multiple valuation methodologies, relying largely on an income approach 
(based  on  the  present  value  of  estimated  future  cash  flows)  but  also  incorporating  value  indicators  from  a  market 
approach. The carrying amount of a cash generating unit is then compared to the recoverable amount to determine if 
there is an impairment loss. Further details on the goodwill impairment test are included in Note 12 "Intangible assets".

In view of the present economic and financial situation, the Group made the following considerations in respect of its 
future prospects:
▪ when  carrying  out  impairment  testing  of  tangible  and  intangible  assets,  the  Group  took  into  account  its  expected 
performance in the upcoming years. CNH Industrial extended such projections for subsequent years to appropriately 
cover the period of analysis;

▪ should  the  assumptions  underlying  the  forecast  deteriorate  further,  the  following  is  noted:  the  Group’s  tangible  and 
intangible  assets  with  a  finite  useful  life  (mostly  development  costs)  relate  to  models  or  products  with  high 
technological  content  in  line  with  the  latest  environmental  laws  and  regulations,  which  consequently  makes  them 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    162

competitive  in  the  current  economic  environment,  especially  in  the  more  mature  economies  in  which  particular 
attention is placed on the eco-sustainability of those types of products. Consequently, despite the fact that the capital 
goods  sector  is  one  of  the  markets  which  could  be  most  affected  by  a  potential  crisis  in  the  immediate  term, 
management considers that is highly probable that the life cycle of these products can be lengthened to extend over 
the  period  of  time  involved  in  a  slower  economic  recovery,  allowing  the  Group  to  achieve  sufficient  cash  flows  to 
cover the investments, although over a longer period of time.

Residual values of assets leased out under operating lease arrangements

CNH Industrial records assets rented to customers or leased to them under operating lease as tangible assets. Income 
from such operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Depreciation expense for 
assets  subject  to  operating  lease  is  recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  lease  term  in  amounts  necessary  to 
reduce the cost of an asset to its estimated residual value at the end of the lease term. The estimated residual value of 
leased  assets  is  calculated  at  the  lease  commencement  date  on  the  basis  of  published  industry  information  and 
historical experience and are reviewed quarterly. 

Realization of the residual values is dependent on CNH Industrial’s future ability to market the assets under the then-
prevailing market conditions. The Group continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which 
impact  the  estimated  residual  values  of  the  assets  on  operating  lease.  The  used  equipment  market  was  carefully 
monitored  throughout  2022  to  ensure  that  write-downs  if  any,  were  properly  determined.  However,  additional  write-
downs may be required if market conditions should deteriorate further.

Sales allowances

CNH Industrial provides sales incentives and discounts to dealers. At the time a sale to a dealer is recognized, CNH 
Industrial records an estimate of future sales incentive costs and discounts as a reduction of revenue. These incentives 
may be based on a dealer's purchase volume, or on retail sales incentive programs and financing programs that will be 
due when the dealer sells the equipment to a retail customer. The estimated cost of the these programs is based on 
historical data, announced and expected incentive programs, field inventory levels. The final cost of these programs is 
determined at the end of the measurement period for volume-based incentives or when the dealer sells the equipment 
to the retail customer. Changes in the mix and types of programs affect these estimates, which are reviewed quarterly. 
Actual cost differences from the original cost estimate are recognized in "Net revenues".

Product warranties

For most equipment and service parts sales, CNH Industrial provides a standard warranty to provide assurance that the 
equipment  will  function  as  intended  for  a  specified  period  of  time.  At  the  time  a  sale  is  recognized,  CNH  Industrial 
records the estimated future warranty costs. CNH Industrial determines its total warranty liability by applying historical 
claims  rate  experience  to  the  estimated  amount  of  equipment  that  has  been  sold  to  end-users  and  is  still  under 
warranty  based  on  dealer  inventories  and  retail  sales.  Variances  in  claims  experience  and  the  type  of  warranty 
programs  affect  these  estimates,  which  are  reviewed  quarterly.  Estimates  used  to  determine  the  product  warranty 
accruals are based on historical claims rate leveraging the last rolling 12 months and consideration of current quality 
developments.

Pension and other post-employment benefits

Group  companies  sponsor  pension  and  other  post-employment  benefits  in  various  countries,  mainly  in  the  United 
States, the United Kingdom and Germany.

Employee benefit liabilities, related assets, costs and net interest connected with them are measured on an actuarial 
basis  which  requires  the  use  of  estimates  and  assumptions  to  determine  the  net  defined  benefit  liability/asset  for  the 
Group. The  actuarial  method  takes  into  consideration  parameters  of  a  financial  nature  such  as  the  discount  rate,  the 
rate for expected return on plan assets, the rate of salary increases and the healthcare costs trend rate and takes into 
consideration the likelihood of potential future events by using certain demographic parameters such as mortality rates 
and  dismissal  or  retirement  rates.  The  discount  rates  selected  are  based  on  yields  or  yield  curves  of  high  quality 
corporate bonds in the relevant market. Trends in healthcare costs are developed on the basis of historical experience, 
the  near-term  outlook  for  costs  and  likely  long-term  trends.  Rates  of  salary  increases  reflect  the  Group’s  long-term 
actual  expectations  in  the  reference  market  and  inflation  trends.  Changes  in  any  of  these  assumptions  may  have  an 
effect on future contributions to the plans.

The effects resulting from revising the estimates for the above parameters (“re-measurements”) are recognized directly 
in  other  comprehensive  income  without  reclassification  to  profit  or  loss  in  subsequent  years:  refer  to  “Employee 
benefits” section above for further details.

Significant future changes in the yields of corporate bonds, other actuarial assumptions referred to above and returns 
on plan assets may significantly impact the net liability/asset.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    163

Recognition of deferred tax assets

At December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial had net deferred tax assets, including tax loss carry forwards, of $534 million, of 
which $346 million are not recognized in the financial statements. The corresponding totals at December 31, 2021 were 
$538 million and $383 million. 

Management has recognized deferred tax assets it believes are probable to be realized. In determining the amount of 
deferred  tax  assets  probable  to  be  realized  management  has  considered  figures  from  budgets  and  plans  consistent 
with  those  used  for  other  purposes  within  CNH  Industrial,  for  example  impairment  testing,  as  discussed  in  the 
paragraph  “Recoverability  of  non-current  assets  (including  goodwill)”  above.  CNH  Industrial  believes  the  amount  of 
recognized deferred tax assets is appropriate, despite the risk of actual future results potentially being less than results 
included in these forecasts, considering many of the recognized net deferred tax assets relate to temporary differences 
and tax losses which, to a significant extent, may be recovered over an extended time period, but do not expire based 
on currently enacted tax law. As in all financial reporting periods, CNH Industrial assessed the realizability of its various 
deferred tax assets, which related to multiple tax jurisdictions in all regions of the world. It is reasonably possible the 
Company's  recognition  of  deferred  tax  assets  could  change  during  2023.  Such  changes  could  materially  impact  the 
Company's financial results. 

During the fourth quarter of 2022, we recognized substantially all the deferred tax assets related to our agricultural and 
construction  equipment  operations  in  Italy,  resulting  in  a  $5  million  non-cash  tax  benefit,  as  those  operations  had 
consistently returned to pre-tax profitability, with that trend anticipated to continue for the foreseeable future. 

During  2021,  CNH  Industrial  recognized  substantially  all  the  deferred  tax  assets  related  to  the  agricultural  and 
construction equipment operations in Brazil, resulting in a $142 million non-cash tax benefit, as those operations had 
consistently returned to sustained profitability in recent years, with that trend anticipated to continue for the foreseeable 
future. 

Contingent liabilities

CNH Industrial is the subject of legal and indirect tax proceedings covering a range of matters, which are pending in 
various jurisdictions. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such matters, it is difficult to predict the final outcome of such 
matters. The cases and claims against CNH Industrial often raise difficult and complex factual and legal issues, which 
are subject to many uncertainties, including but not limited to the facts and circumstances of each particular case and 
claim, the jurisdiction and the differences in applicable law. In the normal course of business management consults with 
legal counsel and certain other experts on matters related to litigation, taxes and other similar contingent liabilities. The 
Group accrues a liability when it is determined that an adverse outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be 
reasonably  estimated.  In  the  event  an  adverse  outcome  is  possible  or  an  estimate  is  not  determinable,  the  matter  is 
disclosed.

New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022 
▪ On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Property, Plant and Equipment—Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to 
IAS  16)  to  prohibit  deducting  from  the  cost  of  an  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  any  proceeds  from  selling 
items  produced  before  that  asset  is  available  for  use  and  clarifying  the  meaning  of  "testing  whether  an  asset  is 
functioning properly". These amendments are effective retrospectively from January 1, 2022. These amendments had 
no impact on these Consolidated Financial Statements.

▪ On  May  14,  2020,  the  IASB  issued  Onerous  Contracts—Cost  of  Fulfilling  a  Contract  (Amendments  to  IAS  37) 
specifying that the cost of fulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relate directly to the contract, including both the 
incremental  costs  of  fulfilling  that  contract  and  an  allocation  of  other  costs  that  relate  directly  to  fulfilling  contracts. 
These amendments are effective retrospectively from January 1, 2022. These amendments had no impact on these 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

▪ On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements to IFRS 2018-2020 Cycle. The most important topics 
addressed  in  these  amendments  are:  (i)  on  IFRS  9  - Financial  Instruments  clarifying  which  fees  an  entity  includes 
when it applies the "10 per cent" test in assessing whether to derecognize a financial liability; and (ii) on IFRS 16 - 
Leases removing the illustration of the reimbursement of leasehold improvements. These improvements are effective 
from January 1, 2022. These amendments had no impact on these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations not yet applicable and not early adopted by the Group

The main accounting standards, amendments and interpretations not yet applicable and not early adopted by the Group 
are the following: 

▪ On February 12, 2021, the IASB issued the Amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS 
Practice  Statement  2:  Disclosure  of  Accounting  policies,  requiring  companies  to  disclose  the  material  accounting 
policy  information  rather  than  the  significant  accounting  policies.  Furthermore,  the  amendments  to  IFRS  Practice 
Statement  2  provide  guidance  on  how  to  apply  the  concept  of  materiality  to  accounting  policy  disclosures.  This 
amendment is effective from January 1, 2023.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    164

▪ On  February  12,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  the  Amendments  to  IAS  8  -  Accounting  policies,  Changes  in  Accounting 
Estimates  and  Errors:  Definition  of  Accounting  Estimates.  The  amendments  clarify  how  to  distinguish  changes  in 
accounting policies (generally also applied retrospectively to past transactions and other past events) from changes 
in accounting estimates (applied prospectively only to future transactions and other future events). This amendment 
is effective from January 1, 2023.

▪ On  May  7,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  Deferred  Tax  related  to  Assets  and  Liabilities  arising  from  a  Single  Transaction 
(Amendments  to  IAS  12),  which  specifies  how  companies  should  account  for  deferred  tax  on  transactions  such  as 
leases  and  decommissioning  obligations.  The  amendments  clarify  that  no  exemption  applies  on  such  transactions 
and that companies are required to recognize deferred tax when they recognize the related assets or liabilities for the 
first  time.  The  amendments  are  effective  for  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  January  1,  2023,  with 
early application permitted.

Furthermore,  at  the  date  of  these  Consolidated  Financial  Statements,  the  European  Union  has  not  yet  completed  its 
endorsement process for the amendments and improvements reported below.

The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the following amendment on its Consolidated Financial 
Statements or disclosures:

▪ On  October  31,  2022,  the  IASB  has  published  "Non-current  Liabilities  with  Covenants"  Amendments  to  IAS  1  - 
Presentation of Financial Statements, to clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months 
after  the  reporting  periods  affect  the  classification  of  a  liability. The  amendments  are  effective  for  reporting  periods 
beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

▪ In  January  2020,  the  IASB  issued  amendments  to  IAS  1  -  Presentation  of  Financial  Statements,  to  clarify  its 
requirements  for  classifying  a  liability  as  non-current  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  The  amendments  are 
effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.

▪ On September 22, 2022, the IASB issued Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16) with 
amendments that clarify how a seller-lessee subsequently measures sale and leaseback transactions that satisfy the 
requirements in IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning 
on or after 1 January 2024.

SCOPE OF CONSOLIDATION

The  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  of  the  Group  as  of  December  31,  2022  include  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  102 
consolidated subsidiaries over which CNH Industrial N.V., directly or indirectly, has control. A total of 111 subsidiaries 
were consolidated at December 31, 2021.

Excluded  from  consolidation  are  9  subsidiaries  that  are  either  dormant  or  generate  a  negligible  volume  of  business: 
their  proportion  of  the  Group’s  assets,  liabilities,  financial  position  and  earnings  is  immaterial.  In  particular,  9  of  such 
subsidiaries  are  accounted  for  using  the  cost  method,  and  represent  in  aggregate  less  than  0.01  percent  of  Group 
revenues, equity and total assets.

Discontinued Operations - Iveco Group Business

This  section  provides  details  of  the  contents  of  the  items  relating  to  Discontinued  Operations  as  reported  in  the 
Consolidated  Income  Statement,  Consolidated  Statement  of  Financial  Position  and  Consolidated  Statement  of  Cash 
Flows.

From a methodological standpoint, it should be noted that with reference to the presentation required by IFRS 5 - Non 
current  Assets  Held  for  Sale  and  Discontinued  Operations,  Discontinued  Operations  are  included  in  the  scope  of 
consolidation of CNH Industrial Group at December 31, 2021 and accordingly the total balances relating to the whole 
Group have been determined by making the appropriate eliminations of transactions and balances between Continuing 
Operations and Discontinued Operations.

More specifically, the approach was as follows:

▪ in  order  to  present  the  financial  effects  of  a  Discontinued  Operation,  revenues  and  expenses  arising  from 
intercompany transactions were eliminated except for those revenues and expenses that are considered to continue 
after the demerger. Eliminations from transactions between Continuing and Discontinued Operations are allocated in 
full  to  Discontinued  Operations.  However,  no  profit  or  loss  is  recognized  for  intercompany  transactions  within  the 
Consolidated  Income  Statements.  The  amounts  of  income  statement  items  included  in  Discontinued  Operations  is 
detailed in the following paragraph.

▪ intercompany  transactions  between  Continuing  and  Discontinued  Operations  have  been  eliminated  in  the 
consolidated statement of financial position. The net balance between Assets held for distribution and Liabilities held 
for distribution represents the net equity of the Discontinued Operations. This amount corresponds to the reduction in 
the total equity of CNH Industrial due to the Demerger that occurred on January 1, 2022.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    165

▪ all  cash  flows  from  Discontinued  Operations  are  reported  in  the  appropriate  items  for  operating  activities,  investing 
activities  and  financing  activities  in  the  Statement  of  Cash  Flows.  The  cash  flows  represent  those  arising  from

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On May 16, 2022, CNH Industrial acquired Specialty Enterprises LLC, a manufacturer of agricultural spray booms and 
sprayer boom accessories. Total consideration was approximately $50 million. The results of Specialty Enterprises have 
been included in CNH Industrial’s Agriculture segment.

On  November  30,  2021,  CNH  Industrial  completed  its  acquisition  of  Raven  Industries,  Inc.  CNH  Industrial  acquired 
100% of the capital stock of Raven for $58 per share funded with available cash on hand. Cash consideration paid to 
Raven shareholders and Raven equity award holders totaled $2.1 billion. Raven, based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, 
included  three  business  divisions:  Applied  Technology,  Engineered  Films  and  Aerostar.  The  Applied  Technologies 
division  offers  precision  agricultural  technologies  in  the  areas  of  applications  controls,  guidance  and  steering,  field 
computers, boom controls, cloud services and logistics, and injection support. At December 31, 2021, the preliminary 
estimates  for  the  fair  value  of  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  of  the Applied  Technologies  Division  as  of  the 
acquisition  date  included  $1.3  billion  and  $0.5  billion  in  preliminary  goodwill  and  intangible  assets,  respectively.  At 
December  31,  2021,  the  Engineered  Films  and Aerostar  businesses  were  classified  as  held  for  sale  with  preliminary 
estimates  of  $0.5  billion  in  assets  held  for  sale  (included  in  Other Assets)  and  $0.1  billion  in  liabilities  held  for  sale 
(included in Other Liabilities). The Engineered Films and Aerostar businesses were subsequently sold during 2022. 

The  acquisition  of  Raven  has  been  accounted  for  as  a  business  combination  using  the  acquisition  method  of 
accounting.  The  acquisition  method  requires,  among  other  things,  that  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  in  a 
business  combination  be  recognized  at  their  fair  values  as  of  the  acquisition  date.  In  the  fourth  quarter  of  2022,  the 
Company  finalized  the  valuation  of  acquired  assets  and  assumed  liabilities.  The  asset  and  liability  fair  values  of  the 
remaining Raven business, Applied Technology Division, at the acquisition date are as follows:

Income tax (expense) benefit

CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  its  subsidiaries  have  substantial  worldwide  operations  and  incur  tax  obligations  in  the 
jurisdictions in which they operate. CNH Industrial’s provision (benefit) for income taxes as reported in its consolidated 
statements  of  operations  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022  of  $758  million  consists  almost  entirely  of  income 
taxes related to subsidiaries of CNH Industrial N.V..

CNH  Industrial  N.V.  is  incorporated  in  the  Netherlands  but  is  a  tax  resident  of  the  United  Kingdom  ("U.K.").  The 
reconciliation of the differences between the provision for income taxes and the statutory rate is presented based on the 
weighted  average  of  the  U.K.  statutory  corporation  tax  rates  in  force  over  each  of  the  Company’s  calendar  year 
reporting periods of 19% in 2022 and 2021. Reconciliations of CNH Industrial’s income tax expense for the years ended 
December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

($ million)
Theoretical Income tax (expense) benefit at the parent statutory rate
Foreign income taxed at different rates

CNH Industrial’s effective tax rates for 2022 and 2021 were 28.8% and 12.3%, respectively. The increased tax expense 
in  2022,  as  compared  to  2021,  was  largely  attributable  to  improved  pre-tax  results,  increased  profitability  in  high-tax 
jurisdictions, taxes associated with the disposition of Raven’s Engineered Films Division and Raven’s Aerostar Division, 
additional reserves for uncertain tax positions, and the addition of unrecognized deferred tax assets in jurisdictions with 
highly  inflationary  economies  in  2022. Although  these  negative  impacts  in  2022  were  partially  offset  by  $5  million  of 
benefits from the recognition of deferred tax assets in Italy, this impact was not as large as the $142 million in benefits 
from the recognition of deferred tax assets in Brazil in 2021. The 2021 rate was also reduced by a reduction in reserves 
for uncertain tax positions, and the utilization of unrecognized deferred tax assets.

At December 31, 2022, undistributed earnings in certain subsidiaries outside the U.K. totaled approximately $9 billion 
($9  billion  at  December  31,  2021)  for  which  no  deferred  tax  liability  has  been  recorded  because  the  remittance  of 
earnings  from  those  jurisdictions  would  incur  no  tax  or  such  earnings  are  indefinitely  reinvested.  CNH  Industrial  has 
determined  the  amount  of  unrecognized  deferred  tax  liability  relating  to  the  $9  billion  undistributed  earnings  was 
approximately  $123  million  and  was  attributable  to  withholding  taxes  and  incremental  local  country  income  taxes  in 
certain  jurisdictions.  Further,  CNH  Industrial  evaluated  the  undistributed  earnings  from  its  joint  ventures  in  which  it 
owned  50%  or  less  and  recorded  $13  million  of  deferred  tax  liabilities  as  of  December  31, 2022.  The  repatriation  of 
undistributed  earnings  to  the  U.K.  is  generally  exempt  from  U.K.  income  taxes  and  as  such  there  is  no  deferred  tax 
liability associated with undistributed earnings from non-U.K. jurisdictions.

CNH Industrial recognizes in its consolidated statement of financial position within Deferred tax assets, the amount of 
deferred  tax  assets  less  the  deferred  tax  liabilities  of  the  individual  consolidated  legal  entities,  where  these  may  be 
offset.

The  increase  of  $33  million  in  net  deferred  tax  assets  is  mainly  due  to  the  net  increase  recognized  in  the  income 
statement of $80 million, largely driven by the disposition of Raven’s Engineered Films Division and Raven’s Aerostar 
Division.

The decision to recognize deferred tax assets is made for each legal entity in the Group by critically assessing whether 
the conditions exist for the future realization of such assets on the basis of actual results, as well as updated strategic 
plans  and  accompanying  tax  plans.  For  this  reason,  the  total  theoretical  future  tax  benefits  arising  from  deductible 
temporary  differences  of  $1,269  million  at  December  31,  2022  and  of  $1,163  million  at  December  31,  2021,  and  tax 
loss  carryforwards  and  tax  credits  of $266  million  at  December  31, 2022  and  of  $382  million  at  December  31, 2021, 
were reduced by $346 million at December 31, 2022 and by $383 million at December 31, 2021.

Net deferred tax assets include $74 million at December 31, 2022 ($149 million at December 31, 2021) of tax benefits 
arising from tax loss carryforwards and tax credits. At December 31, 2022, a further tax benefit of $203 million ($233 
million at December 31, 2021) arising from tax loss carryforwards and tax credits has not been recognized. 

Tax liabilities primarily include uncertain income tax amounts of $173 million and other tax payables.

CNH  Industrial  has  gross  tax  loss  carry  forwards  in  several  tax  jurisdictions. These  tax  losses  expire  as  follows:  $40 
million  in  2023;  $33  million  in  2024;  $23  million  in  2025;  $17  million  in  2026;  $296  million  in  2027  and  beyond.  CNH 
Industrial  also  had  tax  loss  carry  forwards  of  approximately  $628  million  with  indefinite  lives.  CNH  Industrial  has  tax 
credit carry forwards of $48 million which expire in 2026 and beyond.

CNH  Industrial  files  income  tax  returns  in  multiple  jurisdictions  and  is  subject  to  examination  by  taxing  authorities 
throughout  the  world.  CNH  Industrial  has  open  tax  years  from  2009  through  2022.  Due  to  the  global  nature  of  CNH 
Industrial  business,  transfer  pricing  disputes  may  arise  and  CNH  Industrial  may  seek  correlative  relief  through 
competent  authority  processes.  CNH  Industrial  has  considered  the  possibility  of  correlative  relief  when  booking 
contingencies related to transfer pricing.

Basic earnings/(loss) per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing the Profit/(loss) for the period attributable to 
the  owners  of  the  parent  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  common  shares  outstanding  during  the  period.  Diluted 
EPS  reflects  the  potential  dilution  that  could  occur  on  the  conversion  of  all  dilutive  potential  common  shares  into 
common  shares.  Stock  options,  restricted  stock  units,  and  performance  stock  units  deriving  from  the  CNH  Industrial 
share-based payment awards are considered dilutive potential common shares.

For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022,  no  shares  were  outstanding  and  not  included  in  the  calculation  of  diluted 
earnings per share as the impact of these shares would have been anti-dilutive.

For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2021,  no  shares  were  outstanding  and  not  included  in  the  calculation  of  diluted 
earnings per share as the impact of these shares would have been anti-dilutive.

Shares acquired under the buy-back program are included in the issued shares of the Company and treasury stock, but 
are not included in average shares outstanding when calculating earnings per share. For additional information on the 
buy-back program, see Note 21 “Equity”.

Foreign exchange losses were $44 million in 2022 (gains of $170 million in 2021). 

Goodwill, trademarks and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives

Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s cash-generating units identified as the Group’s operating segments. The following 
table presents the allocation of goodwill across the segments:

The  acquisition  of  Specialty  Enterprises  LLC  (Specialty)  during  the  second  quarter  of  2022  led  to  the  increase  in 
Goodwill  for  Agriculture  of  $43  million.  Goodwill  related  to  the  acquisitions  was  calculated  as  the  excess  of  the 
consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from the 
other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized.

The  valuation  of  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  has  not  yet  been  finalized  as  of  December  31,  2022. Thus, 
goodwill associated with the acquisitions is subject to adjustment during the measurement period.

As  of  December  31,  2021,  the  acquisitions  of  Raven  and  Sampierana  during  the  fourth  quarter  of  2021  led  to  an 
increase in Goodwill for Agriculture and Construction of $1.3 billion and $51 million, respectively. Goodwill related to the 
acquisitions  was  calculated  as  the  excess  of  the  consideration  transferred  over  the  net  assets  recognized  and 
represents the future economic benefits arising from the other assets acquired that could not be individually identified 
and  separately  recognized.  The  valuation  of  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  was  finalized  during  the  fourth 
quarter  of  2022.  Measurement  period  adjustments  were  recorded  in  the  current  year  that  increased  Goodwill  by  $77 
million for Agriculture, primarily related to updates of certain of the valuations.

During  the  fourth  quarter  of  2021,  CNH  Industrial  recorded  $0.5  billion  in  intangible  assets  based  on  the  preliminary 
valuation  for  the  Raven  Industries,  Inc.  and  Sampierana  S.p.A.  acquisitions.  Measurement  period  adjustments  were 
recorded in 2022 and decreased the net amount of intangible assets by $72.

Goodwill  and  Intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives  are  tested  for  impairment  annually  or  more  frequently  if  a 
triggering event occurs. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, CNH Industrial completed its annual impairment assessment 
and concluded there were no impairments to goodwill for any of the reporting units.

CNH  Industrial  determines  the  recoverable  amount  of  these  cash-generating  units  using  multiple  valuation 
methodologies, relying largely on an income approach but also incorporating value indicators from a market approach, 
with reference to the cash-generating units with the most significant allocated goodwill. 

Under the income approach, CNH Industrial calculates the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit based on the 
present  value  of  estimated  future  cash  flows.  The  income  approach  is  dependent  on  several  critical  management 
assumptions,  including  estimates  of  future  sales  in  the  discrete  future  period,  the  weighted  average  cost  of  capital 
(discount rate) and terminal value growth rates, and also less significant assumptions such as gross margins, operating 
costs, income tax rates, capital expenditures and changes in working capital requirements. Discount rate assumptions 
include an assessment of the risk inherent in the future cash flows of the respective cash-generating units.

The following discount rates before taxes were selected:

Agriculture
Construction
Financial Services

2022
 14.7 %
n.a.
 20.3 %

2021
 14.5 %
n.a.
 19.7 %

Expected cash flows used under the income approach are developed in conjunction with CNH Industrial budgeting and 
forecasting  processes.  CNH  Industrial  used  nine  years  of  expected  cash  flows  for  Agriculture,  and  five  years  of 
expected cash flows for Financial Services, as management believes that these periods generally reflect the underlying 
market cycles for its businesses. Under the market approach, CNH Industrial estimates the recoverable amount of the 
Agriculture  cash-generating  unit,  using  earnings  before  interest,  tax,  depreciation  and  amortization  multiples,  and 
estimates  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  Financial  Services  cash-generating  unit  using  book  value  multiples.  The 
multiples are derived from comparable publicly-traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics 
as  the  respective  cash-generating  units.  The  guideline  company  method  makes  use  of  market  price  data  of 
corporations  whose  stock  is  actively  traded  in  a  public,  free  and  open  market,  either  on  an  exchange  or  over-the-
counter  basis.  Although  it  is  clear  no  two  companies  are  entirely  alike,  the  corporations  selected  as  guideline 
companies must be engaged in the same, or a similar, line of business or be subject to similar financial and business 
risks, including the opportunity for growth. 

A  terminal  value  is  included  at  the  end  of  the  projection  period  used  in  the  discounted  cash  flow  analysis  in  order  to 
reflect the remaining value that each cash-generating unit is expected to generate. The terminal value represents the 
present value in the last year of the projection period of all subsequent cash flows into perpetuity. The terminal value 
growth  rate  is  a  key  assumption  used  in  determining  the  terminal  value  as  it  represents  the  annual  growth  of  all 
subsequent cash flows into perpetuity. The terminal value growth rate was 1.0% in 2022 and 2021 for the Agriculture 
cash-generating unit, and 1.5% in 2022 and 2021 for Financial Services.

As  of  December  31,  2022,  the  estimated  recoverable  amounts,  (excluding  the  balance  of  the  2021  acquisitions) 
calculated  using  the  above  method,  of  the  Agriculture  and  Financial  Services  cash-generating  units  exceeded  the 
carrying values by approximately 294% and 75%, respectively. Thus, CNH Industrial did not recognize an impairment 
for these cash-generating units. 

The  results  obtained  for  Commercial  and  Specialty  Vehicles  confirmed  the  absence  of  an  impairment  loss  with 
reference to the goodwill amount included in the Discontinued Operations.

The  sum  of  the  recoverable  amounts  of  CNH  Industrial’s  cash  generating  units  was  in  excess  of  CNH  Industrial’s 
market  capitalization  at  December  31,  2022.  CNH  Industrial  believes  that  the  difference  between  the  recoverable 
amount and market capitalization is reasonable (in the context of assessing whether any asset impairment exists) when 
market-based control premiums are taken into consideration.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    175

Trademarks  and  Other  intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives  are  mainly  attributable  to  Agriculture  and 
Construction  and  consist  of  acquired  trademarks  and  similar  rights  which  have  no  legal,  contractual,  competitive  or 
economic factors that limit their useful lives. For the purposes of impairment testing, these assets were attributed to the 
respective cash-generating units. No impairment loss was recognized.

Finally,  the  estimates  and  budget  data  to  which  the  above-mentioned  parameters  have  been  applied  are  those 
determined  by  management  based  on  past  performance  and  expectations  of  developments  in  the  markets  in  which 
CNH  Industrial  operates.  Impairment  assessments  inherently  involve  management  judgments  regarding  a  number  of 
assumptions such as those described above. Due to the many variables inherent in the estimation of a cash generating 
unit’s  recoverable  amount,  differences  in  assumptions  could  have  a  material  effect  on  the  estimated  recoverable 
amount  and  could  result  in  a  goodwill  impairment  loss  in  a  future  period.  Circumstances  and  events,  which  could 
potentially cause further impairment losses, are constantly monitored by CNH Industrial.

Development costs and other intangible assets with finite useful lives

The amortization of development costs and impairment losses are reported in the income statement as Research and 
development costs.

Development costs are tested for impairment at the cash-generating unit level.

Intangible  assets  with  finite  useful  lives  are  amortized  over  their  estimated  useful  lives  and  tested  for  impairment  if 
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.

CNH Industrial recognized an impairment loss of commitments of $17 million. The impairment losses were recognized 
in Cost of sales.

At December 31, 2022, right-of-use assets refer primarily to the following lease contracts: industrial buildings for $162 
million ($139 million at December 31, 2021), plant, machinery and equipment for $12 million ($13 million at December 
31, 2021), and other assets for $45 million ($39 million at December 31, 2021). For a description of the related lease 
liabilities, refer to Note 24 "Debt".

Short-term  and  low-value  leases  are  not  recorded  in  the  statement  of  financial  position;  CNH  Industrial  recognizes 
lease expense ($10 million for both 2022 and 2021) in the income statement for these leases on a straight-line basis 
over the lease term.

Land and industrial buildings and plant, machinery and equipment pledged as security for debt and other commitments 
were immaterial at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

CNH  Industrial  had  contractual  commitments  of  $77  million  and  $95  million  for  the  acquisition  of  property,  plant  and 
equipment at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Trade accounts have significant concentrations of credit risk in the Agriculture and Construction segments. There is not 
a disproportionate concentration of credit risk in any geographic region. 

The Industrial Activities businesses sell a significant portion of their trade receivables to Financial Services and provide 
compensation to Financial Services at approximate market interest rates.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, write offs for trade receivables were immaterial.
Charge-offs of principal amounts of trade receivables outstanding are deducted from the allowance at the point when it 
is  estimated  that  amounts  due  are  deemed  uncollectible.  CNH  Industrial  continues  to  engage  in  collection  efforts  to 
attempt to recover the receivables. When recoveries are collected, these are recognized as income.

CNH Industrial provides and administers retail note and lease financing to end use customers for the purchase of new 
and used equipment sold through its dealer network, as well as revolving charge account financing. The terms of retail 
notes and finance leases generally range from two to six years, and interest rates vary depending on prevailing market 
interest  rates  and  certain  incentive  programs  offered  on  behalf  of  and  sustained  by  Industrial  Activities.  Revolving 
charge  accounts  are  generally  accompanied  by  higher  interest  rates  than  CNH  Industrial's  other  retail  financing 
products, require minimum monthly payments, and do not have pre-determined maturity dates.

Wholesale  receivables  arise  primarily  from  dealer  floorplan  financing,  and  to  a  lesser  extent,  the  financing  of  dealer 
operations.  Under  the  standard  terms  of  the  wholesale  receivable  agreements,  these  receivables  typically  have 
“interest-free” periods of up to twelve months and stated original maturities of up to twenty-four months, with repayment 
accelerated  upon  the  sale  of  the  underlying  equipment  by  the  dealer.  During  the  “interest-free”  period,  Financial 
Services is compensated by Industrial Activities based on market interest rates. After the expiration of any “interest-free” 
period,  interest  is  charged  to  dealers  on  outstanding  balances  until  CNH  Industrial  receives  payment  in  full.  The 
“interest-free”  periods  are  determined  based  on  the  type  of  equipment  sold  and  the  time  of  year  of  the  sale.  CNH 
Industrial  evaluates  and  assesses  dealers  on  an  ongoing  basis  as  to  their  credit  worthiness.  CNH  Industrial  may  be 
obligated  to  repurchase  the  dealer’s  equipment  upon  cancellation  or  termination  of  the  dealer’s  contract  for  such 
causes as change in ownership, closeout of the business, or default. There were no significant losses in 2022 and 2021 
relating to the termination of dealer contracts.

Finance lease receivables mainly relate to equipment leased out under finance lease arrangements. The interest rate 
implicit  in  the  lease  is  determined  at  the  commencement  of  the  lease  for  the  whole  lease  term. The  average  interest 
rate implicit in total finance lease receivables varies depending on prevailing market interest rates.

Financing receivables have significant concentrations of credit risk in the agriculture and construction business sectors. 
On a geographic basis, there is not a disproportionate concentration of credit risk in any area. CNH Industrial typically 
retains,  as  collateral,  a  security  interest  in  the  equipment  associated  with  retail  and  wholesale  receivables,  while 
revolving charge accounts are generally unsecured.

Transfers of financial receivables

As part of its overall funding strategy, the Group periodically transfers certain receivables into special purpose entities 
("SPEs") as part of its asset backed securitization ("ABS") programs or into factoring transactions.

The SPEs finance the purchase of receivables by issuing asset-backed securities (i.e., securities whose repayment and 
interest  flow  depend  upon  the  cash  flow  generated  by  the  portfolio). Asset-backed  securities  are  divided  into  classes 
according to their degree of seniority and rating: the most senior classes are placed with investors on the market; the 
junior  class,  whose  repayment  is  subordinated  to  the  senior  classes,  is  normally  subscribed  for  by  the  seller.  The 
residual interest in the receivables retained by the seller is therefore limited to the junior securities it has subscribed for. 
In accordance with IFRS 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements, all securitization vehicles are included in the scope of 
consolidation because the subscription of the junior asset-backed securities by the seller implies its control in substance 
over the structured entity.

Factoring  transactions  may  be  either  with  recourse  or  without  recourse;  certain  without  recourse  transfers  include 
deferred  payment  clauses  (for  example,  when  the  payment  by  the  factor  of  a  minor  part  of  the  purchase  price  is 
dependent  on  the  total  amount  collected  from  the  receivables),  requiring  first  loss  cover,  meaning  that  the  transferor 
takes priority participation in the losses, or requires a significant exposure to the cash flows arising from the transferred 
receivables  to  be  retained.  These  types  of  transactions  do  not  comply  with  the  requirements  of  IFRS  9  –  Financial 
Instruments  for  the  derecognition  of  the  assets,  since  the  risks  and  rewards  connected  with  collection  are  not 
substantially transferred and, accordingly, the Group continues to recognize the receivables transferred by this means 
in its consolidated statement of financial position and recognizes a financial liability of the same amount under asset-
backed financing (see Note 24 “Debt”).

At  December  31,  2022  and  2021,  the  carrying  amount  of  such  transferred  financial  assets  not  derecognized  and  the 
related liability and the respective fair values were as follows:

Allowance for Credit Losses

CNH Industrial's allowance for credit losses is segregated into two portfolio segments: retail and wholesale. A portfolio 
segment is the level at which CNH Industrial develops a systematic methodology for determining its allowance for credit 
losses.  Further,  the  class  of  receivables  by  which  CNH  Industrial  evaluates  its  portfolio  segments  is  by  geographic 
region.  Typically,  CNH  Industrial's  receivables  within  a  geographic  region  have  similar  risk  profiles  and  methods  for 
assessing and monitoring risk. These classes align with management reporting.

CNH Industrial utilizes three categories for receivables from financing activities that reflect their credit risk and how the 
loss provision is determined.

The  Group  accounts  for  its  credit  risk  by  appropriately  providing  for  expected  credit  losses  on  a  timely  basis.  In 
calculating the expected credit loss rates, CNH Industrial considers historical loss rates for each category of customers 
and adjusts for forward looking macroeconomic data. 

In  calculating  the  expected  credit  losses,  CNH  Industrial’s  calculations  depend  on  whether  the  receivable  has  been 
individually identified as being impaired. The first component of the allowance for credit losses covers the receivables 
specifically reviewed by management for which CNH Industrial has determined it is probable that it will not collect all of 
the  contractual  principal  and  interest.  Receivables  are  individually  reviewed  for  impairment  based  on,  among  other 
items,  amounts  outstanding,  days  past  due  and  prior  collection  history.  Expected  credit  losses  are  measured  by 
considering: the unbiased and probability-weighted amount; the time value of money; and reasonable and supportable 
information  (available  without  undue  costs  or  effort)  at  the  reporting  date  about  past  events,  current  conditions  and 
forecasts of future economic conditions. Expected credit losses are measured as the probability-weighted present value 
of all cash shortfalls over the expected life of each financial asset.  

The  second  component  of  the  allowance  for  credit  losses  covers  all  receivables  that  have  not  been  individually 
reviewed for impairment. The allowance for these receivables is based on aggregated portfolio evaluations, generally 
by financial product. The allowance for wholesale and retail credit losses is based on loss forecast models that consider 
a variety of factors that include, but are not limited to, historical loss experience, collateral value, portfolio balance and 
delinquency. The loss forecast models are updated on a quarterly basis. The calculation is adjusted for forward looking 
macroeconomic  factors.  In  addition,  qualitative  factors  that  are  not  fully  captured  in  the  loss  forecast  models  are 
considered in the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. These qualitative factors are subjective 
and require a degree of management judgment. 

Charge-offs  of  principal  amounts  of  receivables  outstanding  are  deducted  from  the  allowance  at  the  point  when  it  is 
determined to be probable that all amounts due will not be collected.

At  December  31,  2021,  the  allowance  for  credit  losses  included  a  reduction  in  retail  reserves  primarily  due  to  the 
improved outlook for the agricultural industry and a reduced expected impact on credit conditions from the COVID-19 
pandemic.

CNH Industrial assesses and monitors the credit quality of its financing receivables based on whether a receivable is 
classified as Performing or Non-Performing. Receivables are considered past due if the required principal and interest 
payments  have  not  yet  been  received  as  of  the  date  such  payments  were  due.  Delinquency  is  reported  on  financing 
receivables  greater  than  30  days  past  due.  Non-performing  financing  receivables  represent  loans  for  which  CNH 
Industrial has ceased accruing finance income. These receivables are generally 90 days past due. Finance income for 
non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrued interest is charged-off to interest income. Interest 
income  charged-off  was  not  material  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022.  Interest  accrual  is  resumed  if  the 
receivable  becomes  contractually  current  and  collection  becomes  probable.  Previously  suspended  income  is 
recognized at that time.

A restructuring of a receivable constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when the lender grants a concession it 
would not otherwise consider to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulties. As a collateral-based lender, CNH 
Industrial  typically  will  repossess  collateral  in  lieu  of  restructuring  receivables.  As  such,  for  retail  receivables, 
concessions  are  typically  provided  based  on  bankruptcy  court  proceedings.  For  wholesale  receivables,  concessions 
granted  may  include  extended  contract  maturities,  inclusion  of  interest-only  periods,  modification  of  a  contractual 
interest rate to a below market interest rate and waiving of interest and principal.

TDRs are reviewed along with other receivables as part of management’s ongoing evaluation of the adequacy of the 
allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses attributable to TDRs is based on the most probable source 
of  repayment,  which  is  normally  the  liquidation  of  the  collateral.  In  determining  collateral  value,  CNH  Industrial 
estimates  the  current  fair  market  value  of  the  equipment  collateral  and  considers  credit  enhancements  such  as 
additional collateral and third-party guarantees.

Before removing a receivable from TDR classification, a review of the borrower is conducted. If concerns exist about the 
future ability of the borrower to meet its obligations based on a credit review, the TDR classification is not removed from 
the receivable.

As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, CNH Industrial’s TDRs for retail and wholesale receivables were immaterial.

Other current receivables

At December 31, 2022, Other current receivables mainly consisted of other tax receivables for VAT and other indirect 
taxes of $308 million ($638 million at December 31, 2021), and receivables from employees of $15 million ($11 million 
at December 31, 2021).

Other current financial assets

At December 31, 2022, and 2021, Other current financial assets primarily consist of current securities and short-term 
deposits and investments.

Refer to Note 30 “Information on financial risks” for additional information on the credit risk to which CNH Industrial is 
exposed and the way it is managed by the Group.

18. Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities

These items consist of derivative financial instruments measured at fair value at the balance sheet date. 

CNH Industrial utilizes derivative instruments to mitigate its exposure to interest rate and foreign currency exposures. 
Derivatives  used  as  hedges  are  effective  at  reducing  the  risk  associated  with  the  exposure  being  hedged  and  are 
designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. CNH Industrial does not hold or enter into derivative 
or  other  financial  instruments  for  speculative  purposes.  The  credit  and  market  risk  related  to  derivatives  is  reduced 
through diversification among various counterparties, utilizing mandatory termination clauses and/or collateral support 
agreements. Derivative instruments are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. 

In accordance with IFRS 9, derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting only when, at the inception of 
the hedge, there is formal designation and documentation of the hedging relationship, there is an economic relationship 
between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from 
the  economic  relationship,  and  the  hedging  relationship’s  hedging  ratio  reflects  the  actual  quantity  of  the  hedging 
instrument  and  the  hedged  item.  Hedge  effectiveness  is  determined  at  the  inception  of  the  hedge  relationship  and 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    187

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
through  periodic  prospective  effectiveness  assessments  to  ensure  that  an  economic  relationship  exists  between  the 
hedged item and hedging instrument.

Further description of the risk management exposures and strategies for interest rate and currency risk is presented in 
Note  30  “Information  on  financial  risks”,  paragraph  “Market  risk”  together  with  sensitivity  analysis  assessing  the 
potential impact of changes in interest rates and foreign currencies.

Foreign Exchange Derivatives

CNH Industrial has entered into foreign exchange forward contracts and swaps in order to manage and preserve the 
economic  value  of  cash  flows  in  a  currency  different  from  the  functional  currency  of  the  relevant  legal  entity.  CNH 
Industrial conducts its business on a global basis in a wide variety of foreign currencies and hedges foreign currency 
exposures  arising  from  various  receivables,  liabilities,  and  expected  inventory  purchases  and  sales.  Derivative 
instruments  utilized  to  hedge  the  foreign  currency  risk  associated  with  anticipated  inventory  purchases  and  sales  in 
foreign  currencies  are  designated  as  cash  flow  hedges.  Gains  and  losses  on  these  instruments  are  deferred  in 
accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) and recognized in earnings when the related transaction occurs. 

For hedging cash flows in a currency different from the functional currency, the hedge relationship reflects the hedge 
ratio of 1:1, which means that relationship is characterized by the value of the hedging instrument and the value of the 
hedged item moving in the opposite direction as a result of the common underlying of hedged risk.

The main sources of hedge ineffectiveness are:

▪ the effect of the counterparty and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the foreign exchange derivatives, 
which  is  not  reflected  in  the  change  in  the  fair  value  of  the  hedged  cash  flow  attributable  to  the  change  in  the 
exchange rates, and 

▪ changes in timing of the hedged transaction.

Ineffectiveness  related  to  these  hedge  relationships  is  recognized  in  the  consolidated  income  statement  in  the  line 
“Financial income/(expenses)” and was not significant for all periods presented. The maturity of these instruments does 
not exceed 24 months and the after-tax gains/(losses) deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) that 
will  be  recognized  in  net  revenues  and  cost  of  sales  over  the  next  twelve  months,  assuming  foreign  exchange  rates 
remain  unchanged,  is  approximately  $-17  million.  If  a  derivative  instrument  is  terminated  because  the  hedge 
relationship is no longer effective or because the hedged item is a forecasted transaction that is no longer determined 
to  be  probable,  the  cumulative  amount  recorded  in  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income/(loss)  is  recognized 
immediately in earnings. Such amounts were insignificant in all periods presented.

CNH Industrial also uses forwards and swaps to hedge certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. 
Such derivatives are considered economic hedges and not designated as hedging instruments. The changes in the fair 
values  of  these  instruments  are  recognized  directly  in  income  in  “Financial  income/(expenses)”  and  are  expected  to 
offset the foreign exchange gains or losses on the exposures being managed.

All of CNH Industrial’s foreign exchange derivatives are considered Level 2 as the fair value is calculated using market 
data input and can be compared to actively traded derivatives. 

Interest Rate Derivatives

CNH Industrial has entered into interest rate derivatives (swaps and caps) in order to manage interest rate exposures 
arising in the normal course of business. Interest rate derivatives that have been designated as cash flow hedges are 
being used by CNH Industrial to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates related to existing debt and anticipated issuance 
of fixed-rate debt in future periods. Gains and losses on these instruments, to the extent that the hedge relationship has 
been  effective,  are  deferred  in  other  comprehensive  income/(loss)  and  recognized  in  “Financial  income/(expenses)” 
over the period in which CNH Industrial recognizes interest expense on the related debt. The after-tax gains (losses) 
deferred in other comprehensive income/(loss) that will be recognized in interest expense over the next twelve months 
are insignificant. 

Interest rate derivatives that have been designated as fair value hedge relationships have been used by CNH Industrial 
to mitigate the volatility in the fair value of existing fixed rate bonds and medium-term notes due to changes in floating 
interest rate benchmarks. Gains and losses on these instruments are recorded in “Financial income/(expenses)” in the 
period  in  which  they  occur  and  an  offsetting  gain  or  loss  is  also  reflected  in  “Financial  income/(expenses)”  based  on 
changes in the fair value of the debt instrument being hedged due to changes in floating interest rate benchmarks. 

For hedging interest rate exposures, the hedge relationship reflects the hedge ratio 1:1, which means that relationship 
is  characterized  by  the  value  of  the  hedging  instrument  and  the  value  of  the  hedged  item  that  move  in  the  opposite 
direction as a result of the common underlying of hedged risk.

The main sources of hedge ineffectiveness are:

▪ the effect of the counterparty and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the swaps, which is not reflected in 

the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flow attributable to the change in the interest rates, and 

▪ differences in repricing dates between the swaps and the borrowings.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    188

Any ineffectiveness is recorded in “Financial income/(expenses)” in the consolidated income statement and its amount 
was insignificant for all periods presented. 

CNH Industrial also enters into offsetting interest rate derivatives with substantially similar terms that are not designated 
as  hedging  instruments,  to  mitigate  interest  rate  risk  related  to  CNH  Industrial’s  committed  asset-backed  facilities. 
Unrealized and realized gains and losses resulting from fair value changes in these instruments are recognized directly 
in income. Net gains and losses on these instruments were insignificant for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 
2021. All of CNH Industrial’s interest rate derivatives outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 are considered 
Level  2.  The  fair  market  value  of  these  derivatives  is  calculated  using  market  data  input  and  can  be  compared  to 
actively traded derivatives.

Derivatives  not  designated  as  hedging  instruments  consist  mainly  of  derivatives  (mostly  currency-based  derivatives) 
acquired  to  hedge  receivables  and  payables  subject  to  currency  risk  and/or  interest  rate  risk  which  are  not  formally 
designated as hedges at Group level.

Amounts shown are readily convertible into cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Restricted 
cash  mainly  includes  bank  deposits  that  may  be  used  exclusively  for  the  repayment  of  the  debt  relating  to 
securitizations classified as Asset-backed financing.

The  credit  risk  associated  with  Cash  and  cash  equivalents  is  considered  not  significant,  because  it  mainly  relates  to

Assets and Liabilities held for sale decreased of $490 million and $125 million, respectively, compared to December 31, 
2021.  The  decrease  was  primarily  due  to  the  sale  of  the  Engineered  Films  and  Aerostar  Divisions,  acquired  in  the

During the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, 145,297 and 109,904 special voting shares, respectively, were 
acquired for no consideration by the Company following the de-registration of the corresponding number of qualifying 
common shares from the Loyalty Register, net of transfer and allocation of special voting shares in accordance with the 
Special Voting Shares - Terms and Conditions. 

Furthermore, during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company delivered 0.6 million and 2.2 million 
common shares, respectively, under the Company’s stock compensation plan, primarily due to the vesting or exercise 
of share-based awards. See paragraph below “Share-based compensation” for further discussion.

The Company is required to maintain a special capital reserve to be credited against the share premium exclusively for 
the purpose of facilitating any issuance or cancellation of special voting shares. The special voting shares do not carry 
any entitlement to the balance of the special capital reserve. The Board of Directors is authorized to resolve upon (i) 
any distribution out of the special capital reserve to pay up special voting shares or (ii) re-allocation of amounts to credit 
or debit the special capital reserve against or in favor of the share premium reserve. 

The  Company  is  required  to  maintain  a  separate  dividend  reserve  for  the  special  voting  shares.  The  special  voting 
shares shall not carry any entitlement to any other reserve of the Company. Any distribution out of the special voting 
shares  dividend  reserve  or  the  partial  or  full  release  of  such  reserve  will  require  a  prior  proposal  from  the  Board  of 
Directors and a subsequent resolution of the general meeting of holders of special voting shares.

From the profits, shown in the annual accounts, as adopted, such amounts shall be reserved as the Board of Directors 
may determine. 

The profits remaining thereafter shall first be applied to allocate and add to the special voting shares dividend reserve 
an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the aggregate nominal amount of all outstanding special voting shares. The 
calculation of the amount to be allocated and added to the special voting shares dividend reserve shall occur on a time-
proportionate  basis.  If  special  voting  shares  are  issued  during  the  financial  year  to  which  the  allocation  and  addition 
pertains, then the amount to be allocated and added to the special voting shares dividend reserve in respect of these 
newly  issued  special  voting  shares  shall  be  calculated  as  from  the  date  on  which  such  special  voting  shares  were 
issued until the last day of the financial year concerned. The special voting shares shall not carry any other entitlement 
to the profits. 

Any  profits  remaining  thereafter  shall  be  at  the  disposal  of  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  for  distribution  of 
dividend  on  the  common  shares  only  subject  to  the  provision  that  the  distribution  of  profits  shall  be  made  after  the 
adoption of the annual accounts, from which it appears that the same is permitted.

Subject  to  a  prior  proposal  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  may  declare  and  pay 
dividends in U.S. dollars. Furthermore, subject to the approval of the general meeting of shareholders and the Board of 
Directors having been designated as the body competent to pass a resolution for the issuance of shares in accordance 
with Article 5 of the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors may decide that a distribution shall be made in the 
form  of  shares  or  that  shareholders  shall  be  given  the  option  to  receive  a  distribution  either  in  cash  or  in  the  form  of 
shares. 

On February 2, 2023, the Company announced that its Board of Directors intends to recommend and propose dividend 
of €0.36 per common share, totaling approximately €483 million (equivalent to approximately $511 million, translated at 
the exchange rate reported by the European Central Bank on February 25, 2022), subject to shareholder approval.
On  March  3,  2022,  the  Board  of  Directors  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  recommended  and  proposed  to  the  Company’s 
shareholders  that  the  Company  declare  a  dividend  of  €0.28  per  common  share,  totaling  approximately  €380  million 
(equivalent to approximately $412 million, translated at the exchange rate reported by the European Central Bank on

April  20,  2022).  The  proposal  was  approved  by  the  Company’s  shareholders  at  the AGM  that  was  held  on April  13, 
2022.

The Company shall only have power to make distributions to shareholders and other persons entitled to distributable 
profits to the extent the Company's equity exceeds the sum of the paid-up portion of the share capital and the reserves 
that must be maintained in accordance with provision of law. No distribution of profits may be made to the Company 
itself for shares that the Company holds in its own share capital. 

The Board of Directors has the power to declare one or more interim dividends, provided that the requirements of the 
Article 22 paragraph 5 of the Articles of Association are duly observed as evidenced by an interim statement of assets 
and liabilities as referred to in Article 2:105 paragraph 4 of the Dutch Civil Code and provided further that the policy of 
the Company on additions to reserves and dividends is duly observed. The provisions of the Article 22 paragraphs 2 
and 3 of the Articles of Association shall apply mutatis mutandis.

The Board of Directors may determine that dividends or interim dividends, as the case may be, shall be paid, in whole 
or in part, from the Company's share premium reserve or from any other reserve, provided that payments from reserves 
may only be made to the shareholders that are entitled to the relevant reserve upon the dissolution of the Company. 

Dividends and other distributions of profit shall be made payable in the manner and at such date(s) - within four weeks 
after declaration thereof - and notice thereof shall be given, as the general meeting of shareholders, or in the case of 
interim dividends, the Board of Directors shall determine, provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall have the 
right to determine that each payment of annual dividends in respect of shares be deferred for a period not exceeding 
five  consecutive  annual  periods.  Dividends  and  other  distributions  of  profit,  which  have  not  been  collected  within  five 
years and one day after the same have become payable, shall become the property of the Company. 

In  the  event  of  a  winding-up,  a  resolution  to  dissolve  the  Company  can  only  be  passed  by  a  general  meeting  of 
shareholders pursuant to a prior proposal of the Board of Directors. In the event a resolution is passed to dissolve the 
Company,  the  Company  shall  be  wound-up  by  the  Board  of  Directors,  unless  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders 
would resolve otherwise. 

The general meeting of shareholders shall appoint and decide on the remuneration of the liquidators. 

Until the winding-up of the Company has been completed, the Articles of Association of the Company shall to the extent 
possible, remain in full force and effect. 

Effects of the Demerger on the share capital of CNH Industrial N.V.

On January 1, 2022, the share capital of CNH Industrial N.V. did not change as result of the Demerger. CNH Industrial 
N.V. also did not receive any shares in Iveco Group N.V. as a part of the Demerger, as the portion of the shares held in 
treasury buy CNH Industrial N.V. was not eligible to be part of the Demerger and consequent allotment of Iveco Group 
N.V. shares.

Policies and processes for managing capital

The objectives identified by the Group for managing capital are to create value for shareholders as a whole, safeguard 
business  continuity  and  support  the  growth  of  the  Group. As  a  result,  the  Group  endeavors  to  maintain  an  adequate 
level  of  capital  that  at  the  same  time  enables  it  to  obtain  a  satisfactory  economic  return  for  its  shareholders  and 
maintain access to external sources of funds, including by means of achieving an adequate rating.

The Group regularly monitors its debt/equity ratio and in particular the level of net debt and the generation of cash from 
Industrial Activities.

To  reach  these  objectives  the  Group  aims  at  a  continuous  improvement  in  the  profitability  of  the  business  in  which  it 
operates.  Further,  in  general,  the  Group  may  sell  part  of  its  assets  to  reduce  the  level  of  its  debt,  while  the  Board  of 
Directors  may  make  proposals  to  shareholders  in  general  meeting  to  reduce  or  increase  share  capital  or,  where 
permitted by law, to distribute reserves.

The Company shall at all times have the authority to acquire fully paid-up shares in its own share capital, provided that 
such acquisition is made for no consideration (om niet). 

The Company shall also have authority to acquire fully paid-up shares in its own share capital for consideration, if: 

▪ the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  has  authorized  the  Board  of  Directors  to  make  such  acquisition  –  which 
authorization shall be valid for no more than eighteen months – and has specified the number of shares which may 
be acquired, the manner in which they may be acquired and the limits within which the price must be set; 

▪ the Company's equity, after deduction of the acquisition price of the relevant shares, is not less than the sum of the 

paid-up portion of the share capital and the reserves that have to be maintained by provision of law; and 

▪ the aggregate par value of the shares to be acquired and the shares in its share capital the Company already holds, 
holds as pledgee or are held by a subsidiary, does not amount to more than one half of the aggregate par value of 
the issued share capital. 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    193

If no annual accounts have been confirmed and adopted when more than six months have expired after the end of any 
financial year, then the Group is not allowed any acquisition under Dutch law. 

No authorization shall be required, if the Company acquires its own shares for the purpose of transferring the same to 
directors or employees of the Company or a Group company as defined in Article 2:24b of the Dutch Civil Code, under 
a scheme applicable to such employees. Such own shares must be officially listed on a price list of an exchange. 

The  preceding  provisions  shall  not  apply  to  shares  which  the  Company  acquires  under  universal  title  of  succession 
(algemene titel). 

No voting rights may be exercised in the general meeting of shareholders for any share held by the Company or any of 
its  subsidiaries.  Beneficiaries  of  a  life  interest  on  shares  that  are  held  by  the  Company  and  its  subsidiaries  are  not 
excluded from exercising the voting rights provided that the life interest was created before the shares were held by the 
Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Company or any of its subsidiaries may not exercise voting rights for shares in 
respect of which it holds a usufruct. 

Any acquisition by the Company of shares that have not been fully paid up shall be void. 

Any  disposal  of  shares  held  by  the  Company  requires  approval  of  the  Board  of  Directors.  Such  approval  shall  also 
stipulate the conditions of the disposal. 

Loyalty voting program

In order to reward long-term ownership of the Company’s common shares and promote stability of its shareholder base, 
the  Articles  of  Association  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  provide  for  a  loyalty-voting  program  that  grants  eligible  long-term 
shareholders  the  equivalent  of  two  votes  for  each  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  common  share  that  they  hold.  This  has  been 
accomplished through the issuance of special voting shares. 

A shareholder may at any time elect to participate in the loyalty voting program by requesting the registration of all or 
some of the common shares held by such shareholder in a separate register (the “Loyalty Register”) of the Company. If 
such  common  shares  have  been  registered  in  the  Loyalty  Register  for  an  uninterrupted  period  of  three  years  in  the 
name of the same shareholder, such shares will become “Qualifying Common Shares” and the relevant shareholder will 
be entitled to receive one special voting share for each such Qualifying Common Share which can be retained only for 
so long as the shareholder retains the associated common share and registers it in the Loyalty Register.

Shareholders are not required to pay any amount to the Company in connection with the allocation of the special voting 
shares.

The  common  shares  are  freely  transferable,  while,  special  voting  shares  are  transferable  exclusively  in  limited 
circumstances and they are not listed on the NYSE or the Euronext Milan. In particular, at any time, a holder of common 
shares that are Qualifying Common Shares who wants to transfer such common shares other than in limited specified 
circumstances (e.g., transfers to affiliates or relatives through succession, donation or other transfers) must request a 
de-registration  of  such  Qualifying  Common  Shares  from  the  Loyalty  Register.  After  de-registration  from  the  Loyalty 
Register,  such  common  shares  no  longer  qualify  as  Qualifying  Common  Shares  and,  as  a  result,  the  holder  of  such 
common shares is required to transfer the special voting shares associated with the transferred common shares to the 
Company for no consideration. 

The special voting shares have minimal economic entitlements as the purpose of the special voting shares is to grant 
long-term  shareholders  with  an  extra  voting  right  by  means  of  granting  an  additional  special  voting  share,  without 
granting such shareholders with any additional economic rights. However, as a matter of Dutch law, such special voting 
shares cannot be fully excluded from economic entitlements. Therefore, the Articles of Association provide that only a 
minimal  dividend  accrues  to  the  special  voting  shares,  which  is  not  distributed,  but  allocated  to  a  separate  special 
dividend reserve. The impact of this special dividend reserve on the earnings per share of the common shares is not 
material.

Treasury shares

In order to maintain the necessary operating flexibility over an adequate time period, including the implementation of the 
program in place, on April 13, 2022, the Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) granted to the Board of Directors the authority 
to acquire common shares in the capital of the Company through stock exchange trading on the Euronext Milan and the 
NYSE or otherwise for a period of 18 months (i.e., up to and including October 12, 2023). Under such authorization the 
Board’s authority is limited to a maximum of up to 10% of the issued common shares as of the date of the AGM and, in 
compliance with applicable rules and regulations, subject to a maximum price per common share equal to the average 
of the highest price on each of the five trading days prior to the date of acquisition, as shown in the Official Price List of 
the  Euronext  Milan  or  NYSE  (as  the  case  may  be)  plus  10%  (maximum  price)  and  to  a  minimum  price  per  common 
share equal to the average of the lowest price on each of the five trading days prior to the date of acquisition, as shown 
in the Official Price List of the Euronext Milan or NYSE (as the case may be) minus 10% (minimum price). 

Neither the renewal of the authorization, nor the launch of any program obliges the Company to buy-back any common 
shares. The  launch  of  any  new  program  will  be  subject  to  a  further  resolution  of  the  Board  of  Director.  In  any  event, 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    194

such programs may be suspended, discontinued or modified at any time for any reason and without previous notice, in 
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 12,390,052 shares of its common stock on the 
Euronext Milan and on multilateral trading facilities ("MTFs") under the buy-back program. As of December 31, 2022, 
the Company held 20.2 million common shares in treasury, net of transfers of common shares to fulfill its obligations 
under  its  stock  compensation  plans,  at  an  aggregate  cost  of  $227  million.  Depending  on  market  and  business 
conditions and other factors, the Company may continue or suspend purchasing its common stock at any time without 
notice. 

At the 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors intends to recommend to the Company’s 
shareholders  the  renewal  of  the  authorization  to  repurchase  up  to  a  maximum  of  10%  of  the  Company’s  issued 
common shares for further 18 months.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company acquired, for no consideration, 145,297 special voting shares 
following the de-registration of qualifying common shares from the Loyalty Register, net of the transfer and allocation of 
special voting shares to those shareholders whose qualifying common shares became eligible to receive special voting 
shares  after  the  uninterrupted  three-year  registration  period  in  the  Loyalty  Register.  As  of  December  31,  2022,  the 
Company held 25.4 million special voting shares in treasury.

Effects of the Demerger on the treasury shares held CNH Industrial N.V.

On January 1, 2022, CNH Industrial N.V. did not receive any shares in Iveco Group N.V. as a part of the Demerger as 
the  portion  of  the  shares  held  in  treasury  by  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  was  not  eligible  to  be  part  of  the  Demerger  and 
consequent allotment of Iveco Group N.V. shares.

Capital reserves

At  December  31,  2022  capital  reserves,  amounting  to  $332  million  ($3,294  million  at  December  31,  2021),  mainly 
consisted  of  the  share  premium  deriving  from  the  merger  occurred  in  2013  between  Fiat  Industrial  and  its  majority 
owned subsidiary CNH Global.

Effects of the Demerger on the capital reserves of CNH Industrial N.V. 

As a consequence of the Demerger, on January 1, 2022, capital reserves of CNH Industrial N.V. decreased by $2,593 
million (€2,289 million).

Earnings reserves

Earnings reserves, amounting to $9,534 million at December 31, 2022 ($7,795 million at December 31, 2021), mainly 
consist of retained earnings and profits attributable to the owners of the parent.

Effects of the Demerger on the earnings reserves of CNH Industrial N.V. 

On January 1, 2022, there were no impacts on earnings reserves as a results of the Demerger.

For  the  years  ended  December  31,  2022  and  2021,  CNH  Industrial  recognized  total  share-based  compensation 
expense of $87 million and $78 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, CNH Industrial 
recognized a total tax benefit relating to share-based compensation expense of $11 million and $6 million, respectively. 
As of December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial had unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to non-vested 
awards of approximately $142 million based on current assumptions related to achievement of specified performance 
objectives,  when  applicable.  Unrecognized  share-based  compensation  costs  will  be  recognized  over  a  weighted-
average period of 1.6 years.

CNH Industrial’s equity awards are governed by the CNH Industrial N.V. Equity Incentive Plan (“CNH Industrial EIP”) 
and CNH Industrial N.V. Directors’ Compensation Plan (“CNH Industrial DCP”).

At the AGM held on April 16, 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of the CNH Industrial EIP, an 
umbrella program defining the terms and conditions for any subsequent long-term incentive program. The EIP allows 
grants of the following specific types of equity awards to any current or prospective executive director, officer, employee 
of, or service provider to, CNH Industrial: stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted share units, restricted stock, 
performance  shares  or  performance  share  units  and  other  stock-based  awards  that  are  payable  in  cash,  common 
shares or any combination thereof subject to the terms and conditions established by the Compensation Committee.

In February 2020, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of up to 50 million common shares under the EIP. At 
the AGM on April 16, 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the issuance of up to 7 million common shares to 
executive directors under the 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (described below) in accordance with and under the 
EIP.

As part of the Demerger, any awards outstanding under the CNH Industrial EIP, and held by directors, officers and other 
employees vesting in 2022 were accelerated in December 2021 and the related equity incentives were issued by CNH 
Industrial in CNH Industrial stock. As a result of the Demerger, remaining outstanding awards vesting in 2023 and 2024 
were converted to the entity the participant is employed with post Demerger. As such, for Iveco Group employees, the 
underlying stock awards under the CNH Industrial EIP vesting in 2023 and 2024 were converted at the effective date of 
the Demerger, subject to its terms, to Common Shares of Iveco Group N.V.. The conversion of the CNH Industrial EIP 
includes  appropriate  adjustment  mechanisms  to  ensure  that  the  value  of  the  unvested  awards  granted  to  all  the 
beneficiaries under such plan remain unchanged pre and post demerger for employees in both the Iveco Group N.V. 
and CNH Industrial N.V..

Performance Share Units

2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan

In  February  2020,  the  Board  of  Directors  approved  the  2021-2023  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan  under  the  EIP.  In 
December 2020, CNH Industrial issued a new grant of PSUs to its key executive officers and select employees with the 
financial performance goals covering a three-year period culminating with a cliff vest date of February 28, 2024. Two 
internal  financial  metrics,  Industrial  ROIC  (the  ratio  of  Industrial  Activities  Adjusted  EBIT  (after-tax)  over  Average 
Industrial Invested Capital) and Adjusted EPS (the net profit (loss) excluding any nonrecurring items (after-tax), divided 
by the weighted average outstanding number of common shares on a fully diluted basis), weighted 50% each, and a 
multiplier-based  on  CNH  Industrial’s  percentile  ranking  of  Total  Shareholder  Return  among  a  comparator  group,  will 
determine  the  total  PSUs  earned.  The  internal  financial  metrics  have  a  payout  factor  of  up  to  200%  and  the  market 
based TSR determinant has a payout factor of 125%. These metrics are considered performance vesting conditions. As 
such, compensation cost will be accrued based on whether it is considered probable that the performance conditions 
will be satisfied. The fair value of the PSU awards issued under this plan will be calculated by using the CNH Industrial 
N.V. stock price on the grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that would not be received during 
the vesting period.

As  of  December  31,  2020  CNH  Industrial  issued  5  million  PSUs.  The  total  number  of  shares  that  will  eventually  be 
issued may vary from the original estimate due to forfeiture or the level of achievement of the performance goals. The 
weighted  average  fair  value  of  the  awards  that  were  issued  in  2020  was  $10.83  per  share.  The  2020  PSU  awards 
distributed under this plan were issued on December 4, 2020 to key executive officers and select employees and on 
December 14, 2020 to the Chair of CNH Industrial. During 2021, CNH Industrial issued an additional 3 million PSUs to 
key executive officers and select employees. The weighted average fair value of the awards that were issued in 2021 
was $13.13 per share.

Effective  January  1,  2022,  the  Iveco  Group  Business  was  separated  from  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  by  way  of  a  legal 
statutory demerger to Iveco Group N.V. (the Demerger) and Iveco Group became a public listed company independent 
from CNH Industrial. As part of the Demerger, any awards outstanding under the CNH Industrial Equity Incentive Plan 
(or “CNH Industrial EIP”), and held by directors, officers and other employees vesting in April 2022 were accelerated in 
December 2021 and the related equity incentives were issued by CNH Industrial in CNH Industrial stock. Further, as a 
result  of  the  Demerger,  remaining  outstanding  awards  vesting  in  2023  and  2024  were  converted  to  the  entity  the 
participant is employed with post Demerger. The conversion of the CNH Industrial EIP includes appropriate adjustment 
mechanisms to ensure that the value of the unvested awards granted to all the beneficiaries under such plan remain 
unchanged pre and post demerger for employees in both the Iveco Group N.V. and CNH Industrial N.V. 

2022-2024 Long-Term Incentive Plan

In 2022, the Board of Directors approved the 2022-2024 Long-Term Incentive Plan under the EIP. Just as the previous 
2021-2023 EIP, the 2022-2024 EIP features financial performance goals covering a three-year vesting period. Similar to 
the 2021-2023 EIP, two internal financial metrics, Industrial ROIC (the ratio of Adjusted EBIT (after-tax) over Average 
Industrial Invested Capital) and Adjusted EPS (the net profit/(loss) excluding any nonrecurring items (after-tax), divided 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    197

by the weighted average outstanding number of common shares on a fully diluted basis), weighted 50% each, and a 
multiplier-based  on  CNH  Industrial’s  percentile  ranking  of  Total  Shareholder  Return  among  a  comparator  group,  will 
determine the total PSUs earned. However the difference between the two EIPs is that the 2022-2024 EIP has a higher 
performance  achievement  threshold  for  both  ROIC  and  EPS  but  a  smaller  list  of  comparator  group  for  its  TSR 
percentile ranking. 

In 2022 CNH Industrial issued 2.5 million PSUs. The total number of shares that will eventually be issued may vary from 
the original estimate due to forfeiture or the level of achievement of the performance goals. The weighted average fair 
value of the awards that were issued in 2022 was $14.04 per share. 

The  following  table  reflects  the  activity  of  PSUs  under  the  2021-2023  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2022 and 2021:

In 2020, 2021 and 2022 CNH Industrial issued approximately 5 million, 1 million, and 2 million Restricted Share Units 
(“RSUs”)  to  key  executive  officers  and  select  employees  with  a  weighted  average  fair  value  of  $10.87,  $14.39  and 
$13.90 per share, respectively. The fair value of the award is measured using the CNH Industrial N.V. stock price on the 
grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that employees will not receive during the vesting period. 
The RSUs vest upon a time-based service requirement.

2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan

On December 4, 2020, CNH Industrial issued two separate RSU grants to key executive officers and select employees. 
Under the first RSU grant, 1.1 million RSUs were awarded to select employees with a weighted average fair value of 
$11.43. These awards vested on December 31, 2020. Under the second RSU grant, 3.3 million RSUs were awarded to 
select  employees  and  are  set  to  vest  in  three  equal  installments  over  a  three-year  period.  The  first  tranche  which 
consisted of 1.1 million RSUs was set to vest on April 30, 2022. The second and third tranches are set to vest on April 
30, 2023 and April 30, 2024, respectively. The weighted average fair value for the December 2020 three tranche award 
group are $11.23, $11.02, and $10.82, respectively.

On  December  14,  2020,  CNH  Industrial  issued  120  thousand  RSUs  to  the  Chair  of  CNH  Industrial,  of  which  17 
thousand vested on December 31, 2020. The weighted average fair value for these awards is $10.96. The remaining 
103 thousand RSUs vest in three equal installments on April 30, 2022, 2023, and 2024, respectively. The fair value for 
these awards are $10.76, $10.55 and $10.35, respectively.

During 2021, CNH Industrial issued an additional 1.5 million RSUs to select employees and key executive officers. Of 
the awards that were issued, 1.2 million are set to vest in three equal installments over a three year period. The first 
tranche, which consists of 0.4 million RSUs, was set to vest on April 30, 2022. The second and third tranches are set to 
vest on April 30, 2023 and April 30, 2024, respectively. The weighted average fair value of these awards are $14.04 per 
share  for  the  first  tranche,  $13.84  per  share  for  the  second  tranche,  and  $13.66  per  share  for  the  third  tranche. The 
remaining awards issued in 2021 had a cumulative weighted average fair value of $16.73. In 2021, CNH Industrial, in 
anticipation of the Demerger, accelerated the vesting of awards with a vest date of April 31, 2022, to December 1, 2021, 
excluding shares awarded to the CEO and Chairperson. As a result, CNH Industrial recorded $5 million of expense due 
to the acceleration of these awards. The weighted average fair value of the shares vested during 2021 was $11.75 per 
share.

2022-2024 Long-Term Incentive Plan

In 2022 CNH Industrial issued 2.3 million PSUs. The total number of shares that will eventually be issued may vary from 
the original estimate due to forfeiture or the level of achievement of the performance goals. The weighted average fair 
value of the awards that were issued in 2022 was $13.90 per share.

CNH  Industrial  provides  pension,  healthcare  and  insurance  plans  and  other  post-employment  benefits  to  their 
employees and retirees, either directly or by contributing to independently administered funds. The way these benefits 
are provided varies according to the legal, fiscal and economic conditions of each country in which the Group operates, 
the benefits generally being based on the employees’ remuneration and years of service. CNH Industrial provides post-
employment benefits under defined contribution and defined benefit plans.

In  the  case  of  defined  contribution  plans,  CNH  Industrial  makes  contributions  to  publicly  or  privately  administered 
pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. Once the contributions have been made, CNH 
Industrial  has  no  further  payment  obligations.  CNH  Industrial  recognizes  the  contribution  cost  when  the  employees 
have rendered their service and includes this cost by function in Cost of sales, Selling, general and administrative costs 
and Research and development costs. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, CNH Industrial recorded 
expenses  of  $351  million  and  $315  million,  respectively,  for  its  defined  contribution  plans,  inclusive  of  social  security 
contributions.

Defined benefit plans may be unfunded, or they may be wholly or partly funded by contributions made by an entity, and 
sometimes by its employees, into an entity, or fund, that is legally separate from the employer from which the employee 
benefits are paid. Benefits are generally payable under these plans after the completion of employment. Defined benefit 
plans are classified by CNH Industrial on the basis of the type of benefit provided as follows: Pension plans, Healthcare 
plans, and Other post-employment benefits.

Pension plans

Pension  obligations  primarily  comprise  the  obligations  of  CNH  Industrial’s  pension  plans  in  the  U.S.,  the  U.K.,  and 
Germany. 

Under  these  plans,  contributions  are  made  to  a  separate  fund  (trust)  that  independently  administers  the  plan  assets. 
CNH Industrial’s funding policy is to contribute amounts to the plan equal to the amounts required to meet the minimum 
funding  requirements  pursuant  to  the  laws  of  the  applicable  jurisdictions.  The  significant  pension  plans  that  we  are 
required  to  fund  are  in  the  United  States  and  the  U.K..  CNH  Industrial  may  also  choose  to  make  discretionary 
contributions in addition to the funding requirements. To the extent that a fund is overfunded, the Group is not required 
to  make  further  contribution  to  the  plan  in  respect  of  minimum  performance  requirements  so  long  as  the  fund  is  in 
surplus.

In 2020, CNH Industrial signed group annuity contracts to transfer the outstanding pension benefit obligations related to 
certain  retirees  and  beneficiaries  within  the  U.S.  plans.  In  connection  with  these  transactions,  $551  million  of  plan 
obligations were transferred along with $550 million of plan assets; the related non-cash settlement impact recognized 
in the income statement in the fourth quarter of 2020 was immaterial.

Healthcare plans

Healthcare  plan  obligations  comprise  obligations  for  healthcare  and  insurance  plans  granted  to  CNH  Industrial 
employees working in the U.S. and Canada. These plans generally cover employees retiring on or after reaching the 
age  of  55  who  have  completed  at  least  10  years  of  employment.  CNH  Industrial  U.S.  salaried  and  non-represented 
hourly  employees  and  Canadian  employees  hired  after  January  1,  2001  and  January  1,  2002,  respectively,  are  not 
eligible for postretirement healthcare and life insurance benefits under the CNH Industrial plans. These benefits may be 
subject  to  deductibles,  co-payment  provisions  and  other  limitations,  and  CNH  Industrial  has  reserved  the  right  to 
change or terminate these benefits, subject to the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement. These plans are 
not required to be funded. However, beginning in 2007, CNH Industrial began making contributions on a voluntary basis 
to a separate and independently managed fund established to finance the North American healthcare plans. 

In 2021, CNH Industrial communicated plan changes for the U.S. retiree medical plan. The plan changes resulted in a 
reduction of the plan liability by $100 million, recognized immediately in profit or loss as a pre-tax plan amendment gain 
of the same amount.

Effective January 1, 2022, post-retirement medical coverage for certain U.S. employees who retired prior to December 
2004  was  transitioned  to  an  individual  marketplace.  In  August  2022,  CNH  Industrial  settled  the  benefits  obligation 
related  to  RHRA  benefits  for  this  group.  In  connection  with  this  transaction,  $27  million  of  plan  obligations  and  plan 
assets were transferred.

Other post-employment benefits

Other post-employment benefits consist of obligations  for Italian Employee Leaving Entitlements up to December 31, 
2006, loyalty bonus in Italy and various other similar plans in France, Germany and Belgium. Until December 31, 2006, 
Italian  companies  with  more  than  50  employees  were  required  to  accrue  for  benefits  paid  to  employees  upon  them 
leaving  Italian  legal  entities.  The  scheme  has  since  changed  to  a  defined  contribution  plan.  The  obligation  on  our 
consolidated  balance  sheet  represents  the  residual  reserve  for  years  until  December  31,  2006.  Loyalty  bonus  is 
accrued for employees who have reached certain service seniority and are generally settled when employees leave the 
company. These plans are not required to be funded and, therefore, have no plan assets.

The  item  Other  long-term  employee  benefits  consists  of  the  Group’s  obligation  for  those  benefits  generally  payable 
during  employment  on  reaching  a  certain  level  of  seniority  in  the  company  or  when  a  specified  event  occurs,  and 
reflects the probability of payment and the length of time over which this will be made.

(*) CNH Industrial expects to achieve the ultimate healthcare cost trend rate in 2028 for U.S. plans. A flat trend rate assumption is utilized for the Canada plans.

Assumed  discount  rates  are  used  in  measurements  of  pension,  healthcare  and  other  post-employment  benefit 
obligations and net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset. CNH Industrial selects its assumed discount rates 
based on the consideration of equivalent yields on high-quality fixed income investments at the measurement date. The 
assumed discount rate is used to discount future benefit obligations back to today’s dollars. The discount rates for the 
U.S., European, U.K. and Canadian obligations are based on a benefit cash flow-matching approach and represent the 
rates  at  which  the  benefit  obligations  could  effectively  be  settled  as  of  the  measurement  date,  December  31.  The 
benefit  cash  flow-matching  approach  involves  analyzing  CNH  Industrial’s  projected  cash  flows  against  a  high-quality 
bond yield curve, mainly calculated using a wide population of AA-grade corporate bonds subject to minimum amounts 
outstanding  and  meeting  other  defined  selection  criteria.  The  discount  rates  for  the  CNH  Industrial’s  remaining 
obligations  are  based  on  benchmark  yield  data  of  high-quality  fixed  income  investments  for  which  the  timing  and 
amounts of payments approximate the timing and amounts of projected benefit payments.

The assumed healthcare trend rate represents the rate at which healthcare costs are assumed to increase. Rates are 
determined  based  on  CNH  Industrial’s  specific  experience,  consultation  with  actuaries  and  outside  consultants,  and 
various  trend  factors  including  general  and  healthcare  sector-specific  inflation  projections  from  the  United  States 
Department  of  Health  and  Human  Services  Healthcare  Financing  Administration.  The  initial  trend  is  a  short-term 
assumption based on recent experience and prevailing market conditions. The ultimate trend is a long-term assumption 
of  healthcare  cost  inflation  based  on  general  inflation,  incremental  medical  inflation,  technology,  new  medicine, 
government cost-shifting, utilization changes, an aging population, and a changing mix of medical services. 

CNH  Industrial  annually  reviews  the  mortality  assumptions  and  demographic  characteristics  of  its  U.S.  pension  plan 
and healthcare plan participants.

In 2020, CNH Industrial adopted the no-collar variant of the Pri-2012 base table for the US pension plans subsequent to 
the  settlement  of  a  portion  of  the  outstanding  pension  obligation  through  purchase  of  annuity  contracts. Additionally, 
CNH Industrial adopted the updated mortality improvement scale issued by the SOA ("MP-2020"). The adoption of the 
new  mortality  assumptions  resulted  in  a  total  increase  of  $7.8  million  to  CNH  Industrial’s  benefit  obligations  at 
December 31, 2020, of which an increase of $8.6 million, and a decrease of $0.8 million were related to pension plans 
and healthcare plans, respectively.

In 2021, the Company adopted the updated mortality improvement scale issued by the SOA ("MP-2021"). The adoption 
of  the  new  mortality  assumptions  resulted  in  a  total  increase  of  $1.3  million  to  the  Company’s  benefit  obligations  at 
December  31,  2021,  of  which  $0.5  million  and  $0.8  million  were  related  to  pension  plans  and  healthcare  plans, 
respectively. 

CNH  Industrial  did  not  change  its  mortality  assumptions  in  2022  because  the  MP-2021  mortality  improvement  scale 
continues to be the most current.

CNH Industrial uses the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service cost and net interest components by applying 
the  specific  spot  rates  along  the  yield  curve  used  to  determine  the  benefit  obligations  to  relevant  projected  cash 
outflows.

Plan assets

The investment strategy for the plan assets depends on the features of the plan and on the maturity of the obligations. 
Typically,  less  mature  plan  benefit  obligations  are  funded  by  using  more  equity  securities  as  they  are  expected  to 
achieve long-term growth exceeding the rate of inflation. More mature plan benefit obligations are funded using more 
fixed  income  securities  as  they  are  expected  to  produce  current  income  with  limited  volatility.  Risk  management 
practices include the use of multiple asset classes and investment managers within each asset class for diversification 
purposes.  Specific  guidelines  for  each  asset  class  and  investment  manager  are  implemented  and  monitored.  Plan 
assets do not include treasury shares of CNH Industrial N.V. or properties occupied by Group companies. 

The  fair  value  of  plan  assets  at  December  31,  2022  may  be  disaggregated  by  asset  class  and  level  as  follows.  Fair

The warranty and technical assistance provision represents management’s best estimate of commitments given by the 
Group  for  contractual,  legal  or  constructive  obligations  arising  from  product  warranties  given  for  a  specified  period  of 
time  which  begins  at  the  date  of  delivery  to  the  customer.  This  estimate  has  been  calculated  considering  past 
experience and specific contractual terms. This provision also includes management’s best estimate of the costs that 
are  expected  to  be  incurred  in  connection  with  product  defects  that  could  result  in  a  larger  recall  of  equipment. This 
provision for risks is developed through an assessment of reported damages or returns on a case-by-case basis.

At December 31, 2022, the restructuring provision includes the estimated amount of benefits payable to employees on 
termination  in  connection  with  restructuring  plans  amounting  to  $25  million  ($19  million  at  December  31,  2021),  and 
other costs totaling $10 million ($13 million at December 31, 2021). 

The provision for other risks represents the amounts set aside by the individual companies of the Group principally in 
connection with contractual and commercial risks and disputes. The more significant balances of this provision are as 
follows:

($ million)
Marketing and sales incentives programs
Commercial risks
Legal proceedings and other disputes
Environmental risks
Other reserves for risks and charges
Total Other risks

A description of these provisions follows:

▪ Marketing  and  sales  incentives  program  -  this  provision  relate  to  sales  incentives  that  are  offered  on  a  contractual 
basis  to  the  dealer  networks  and  primarily  given  if  the  dealers  achieve  a  specific  cumulative  level  of  sales 
transactions during the calendar year. This provision is estimated based on information available for the sales made 
by the dealers during the calendar year.

▪ Commercial risks - this provision relates to risks arising in connection with the sale of products and services.

▪ Legal  proceedings  and  other  disputes  -  this  provision  represents  management’s  best  estimate  of  the  liability  to  be 

recognized by the Group with regard to: 

▪ Legal  proceedings  arising  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business  with  dealers,  customers,  suppliers  or  regulators 

(such as contractual, patent or antitrust disputes).

▪ Legal proceedings involving claims with active and former employees.

None of these provisions is individually significant. Each Group company recognizes a provision for legal proceedings 
when  it  is  deemed  probable  that  the  proceedings  will  result  in  an  outflow  of  resources.  In  determining  their  best 
estimate  of  the  probable  liability,  each  Group  company  assesses  its  legal  proceedings  on  a  case-by-case  basis  to 
estimate the probable losses that typically arise from events of the type giving rise to the liability. Their estimate takes 
into account, as applicable, the views of legal counsel and other experts, the experience of the company and others 
in similar situations and the company’s intentions with regard to further action in each proceeding. CNH Industrial’s 
consolidated provision combines the individual provisions established by each of the Group’s companies.

▪ Environmental risks – this provision represents management’s best estimate of the Group’s probable environmental 
obligations. Amounts included in the estimate comprise direct costs to be incurred in connection with environmental 
obligations associated with current or formerly owned facilities and sites. This provision also includes costs related to 
claims on environmental matters.

24.  Debt

Credit Facilities

Lenders  of  committed  credit  facilities  have  the  obligation  to  make  advances  up  to  the  facility  amount.  Lenders  of 
uncommitted facilities have the right to terminate the agreement with prior notice to CNH Industrial. At December 31, 
2022,  CNH  Industrial  had  available  committed  unsecured  facilities  expiring  after  twelve  months  amounting  to  $5.1 
billion ($5.2 billion at December 31, 2021). 

In March 2019, CNH Industrial signed a five-year committed revolving credit facility for €4 billion ($4.5 billion at March 
31, 2019 exchange rate) due to mature in 2024 with two extension options of 1-year each, exercisable on the first and 
second anniversary of the signing date. CNH Industrial exercised the first of the two extension options as of February 
28, 2020 and the second extension option as of February 26, 2021. The facility is now due to mature in March 2026 for 
€3,950.5 million; €49.5 million within the facility will mature in March 2025. The credit facility replaced the existing five-
year €1.75 billion credit facility due to mature in 2021. The €4 billion facility is guaranteed by the parent company with 
cross-guarantees from each of the borrowers (i.e., CNH Industrial Finance S.p.A., CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. 
and CNH Industrial Finance North America Inc.), and includes typical provisions for contracts of this type and size, such 
as:  customary  covenants  mainly  relating  to  Industrial  Activities  including  negative  pledge,  a  status  (or  pari  passu) 
covenant, restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness by certain subsidiaries, customary events of default (some of 
which are subject to minimum thresholds and customary mitigants) including cross-default, failure to pay amounts due 
or to comply with certain provisions under the loan agreement, the occurrence of certain bankruptcy-related events and 
mandatory obligations upon a change in control of CNH Industrial or the borrower and a financial covenant (Net Debt/
EBITDA ration relating to Industrial Activities) that is not applicable with the current ratings levels. The failure to comply 
with these provisions, in certain cases if not suitably remedied, can lead to the requirement to make early repayment of 
the outstanding advances. At December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial was in compliance with all covenants in the revolving 
credit facility.

Total committed secured facilities expiring after twelve months amounted to approximately $2.9 billion at December 31, 
2022  ($3.9  billion  at  December  31,  2021,  $3.0  billion  excluding  Iveco  Group),  of  which  $0.8  billion  was  available  at 
December 31, 2022 ($1.1 billion at December 31, 2021, $1.0 billion excluding Iveco Group).

With the strong liquidity position at the end of December 2022 and the demonstrated access to the financial markets, 
CNH  Industrial  believes  that  its  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  access  to  credit  facilities  and  cash  flows  from  future 
operations will be adequate to fund its known cash needs.

At December 31, 2022, Financial Services’ committed asset-backed facilities expiring after twelve months amounted to 
$2.9 billion ($3.0 billion at December 31, 2021), of which $2.1 billion at December 31, 2022 ($2.0 billion at December 
31, 2021) were utilized.

Total Debt was $23,652 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $1,963 million compared to December 31, 2021.

Excluding the positive impact of exchange translation differences ($525 million of decrease in Debt), Debt increased by 
$2,488  million  due  to  increase  in  asset-backed  financing  and  in  bank  debt,  mainly  in  Financial  Services,  due  to  the 
increase in Portfolio offset by the repayment net of $503 million to Iveco Group related to the net outstanding at year 
ended December 31, 2021.

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022,  $65  million  for  the  principal  portion  of  Lease  liabilities  and  $8  million  for 
interest expenses related to lease liabilities were paid, respectively ($62 million and $6 million, respectively, were paid 
during the year ended December 31, 2021).

The  bonds  issued  by  the  Group  may  contain  commitments  of  the  issuer,  and  in  certain  cases  commitments  of  CNH 
Industrial N.V. in its capacity as guarantor, which are typical of international practice for bond issues of this type such 
as,  in  particular,  negative  pledge  (in  relation  to  quoted  indebtedness),  a  status  (or  pari  passu)  covenant  and  cross 
default  clauses. A  breach  of  these  commitments  can  lead  to  the  early  repayment  of  the  applicable  notes. The  bonds 
guaranteed  by  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  under  the  Euro  Medium  Term  Note  Programme  (and  its  predecessor  the  Global 
Medium Term Note Programme), as well as the notes issued by CNH Industrial N.V., contain clauses which could lead

to  early  repayment  if  there  is  a  change  of  control  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  leading  to  a  rating  downgrading  of  CNH 
Industrial N.V.

On January 4, 2022 Fitch Ratings raised its Long-Term Issuer Default Rating ("IDR") on CNH Industrial N.V. to ‘BBB+’ 
from ‘BBB-’. Fitch also upgraded CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A.’s senior unsecured rating to ‘BBB+’ from ‘BBB-’. 
The  Outlook  is  stable.  On  January  7,  2022,  Fitch  upgraded  the  Long-Term  IDR  and  senior  long-term  debt  ratings  of 
CNH Industrial Capital LLC and CNH Industrial Capital Canada Ltd. to 'BBB+' from 'BBB-'. The outlook is stable. Fitch 
has also upgraded CNH Industrial Capital LLC's short-term IDR and commercial paper ratings to 'F2' from 'F3'. 

On  February  25,  2022,  Moody's  upgraded  the  senior  unsecured  ratings  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  its  supported 
subsidiaries including CNH Industrial Capital LLC, CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A., CNH Industrial Capital Australia 
Pty.  Ltd.  and  CNH  Industrial  Capital  Canada  Ltd.  to  Baa2  from  Baa3.  At  the  same  time,  Moody's  withdrew  CNH 
Industrial  Finance  Europe  S.A.  short  term  rating  of  (P)P-3.  The  rating  outlook  is  stable.  Our  long-term  credit  ratings 
remained unchanged at "BBB" from Standard & Poor's Global Ratings with stable outlook.

For  further  information  on  the  management  of  interest  rate  and  currency  risk  reference  should  be  made  to  Note  30 
"Information on financial risks".

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, there was no debt secured with mortgages and other liens on assets of the Group, 
and the total carrying amount of assets acting as security for loans was not significant at December 31, 2022 and 2021. 
In addition, the Group’s assets include current receivables and cash with a pre-determined use to settle asset-backed 
financing of $9,753 million at December 31, 2022 ($8,875 million at December 31, 2021).

27.  Commitments and contingencies

As a global company with a diverse business portfolio, CNH Industrial in the ordinary course of business is exposed to 
numerous  legal  risks,  including,  without  limitation,  dealer  and  supplier  litigation,  intellectual  property  right  disputes, 
product warranty and defective product claims, product performance, asbestos, personal injury, emissions and/or fuel 
economy  regulatory  and  contractual  issues,  competition  law  and  other  investigations  and  environmental  claims.  The 
most significant of these matters are described below.

The outcome of any current or future proceedings, claims, or investigations cannot be predicted with certainty. Adverse 
decisions in one or more of these proceedings, claims or investigations could require CNH Industrial to pay substantial 
damages  or  fines  or  undertake  service  actions,  recall  campaigns  or  other  costly  actions.  It  is  therefore  possible  that 
legal  judgments  could  give  rise  to  expenses  that  are  not  covered,  or  not  fully  covered,  by  insurers’  compensation 
payments and could affect CNH Industrial’s financial position and results. 
When it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle obligations and 
this amount can be reliably estimated, CNH Industrial recognizes specific provisions for this purpose. At December 31, 
2022,  contingent  liabilities  estimated  by  the  Group  amount  to  approximately  $43  million  (approximately  $47  million  at 
December  31,  2021),  for  which  no  provisions  have  been  recognized  since  an  outflow  of  resources  is  not  considered 
probable at the present time. 

Although the ultimate outcome of legal matters pending against CNH Industrial and its subsidiaries cannot be predicted, 
CNH Industrial believes the reasonable possible range of losses for these unresolved legal matters in addition to the 
amounts accrued would not have a material effect on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other litigation and investigation

Follow-up  on  Damages  Claims:  in  2011  Iveco  S.p.A.  ("Iveco"),  which,  following  the  Demerger,  is  now  part  of  Iveco 
Group N.V., and its competitors in the European Union were subject to an investigation by the European Commission 
(the  “Commission”)  into  certain  business  practices  in  the  European  Union  (in  the  period  1997-2011)  in  relation  to 
Medium  &  Heavy  trucks.  On  July  19,  2016,  the  Commission  announced  a  settlement  with  Iveco  ("the  Decision"). 
Following  the  Decision,  the  Company,  Iveco  and  Iveco  Magirus  AG  ("IMAG")  have  been  named  as  defendants  in 
proceedings  across  Europe.  The  consummation  of  the  Demerger  will  not  allow  CNH  Industrial  to  be  excluded  from 
current and future follow on proceedings originating from the Decision because under EU competition law a company 
cannot  use  corporate  reorganizations  to  avoid  liability  for  private  damage  claims.  In  the  event  one  or  more  of  these 
judicial  proceedings  would  result  in  a  decision  against  CNH  Industrial  ordering  it  to  compensate  such  claimants  as  a 
result  of  the  conduct  that  was  the  subject  matter  of  the  Decision,  and  Iveco  and  IMAG  do  not  comply  with  such 
decisions, as a result of various intercompany arrangements, then CNH Industrial will ultimately have recourse against 
Iveco and IMAG for the reimbursement of the damages effectively paid to such claimants. The extent and outcome of 
these  claims  cannot  be  predicted  at  this  time.  The  Company  believes  that  the  risk  of  either  Iveco  or  IMAG  or  Iveco 
Group defaulting on potential payment obligations arising from such follow-up on damage claims is remote.

FPT Emissions Investigation: on July 22, 2020, a number of FPT Industrial S.p.A.'s offices in Europe were visited by 
investigators in the context of a request for assistance by the public prosecutors of Frankfurt am Main, Germany and 
Turin,  Italy  in  relation  to  alleged  noncompliance  of  two  engine  models  produced  by  FPT  Industrial  S.p.A.,  which  is  a 
wholly-controlled subsidiary Iveco Group N.V., installed in certain Ducato (a vehicle distributed by Stellantis N.V.) and 
Iveco Daily vehicles. In certain instances CNH Industrial and other third parties have also received various requests for 
compensation  by  German  and  Austrian  customers  on  various  contractual  and  tort  grounds,  including  requests  for 
damages  resulting  from  the  termination  of  the  purchase  contracts,  or  in  the  form  of  requests  for  an  alleged  lower 
residual  value  of  their  vehicles  as  a  consequence  of  the  alleged  non-compliance  with  other  approval  regulations 
regarding emissions. In certain instances, other customers have brought judicial claims on the same legal and factual 
bases.  While  the  Company  had  no  role  in  the  design  and  sale  of  such  engine  models  and  vehicles,  the  Company 
cannot predict at this time the extent and outcome of these requests and directly or indirectly related legal proceedings, 
including customer claims or potential class actions alleging emissions non-compliance. The Company believes that the 
risk  of  either  FPT  Industrial  or  Iveco  Group  N.V.  defaulting  on  potential  payment  obligations  arising  from  such 
proceedings is remote.

CNH Industrial provided guarantees on the debt or commitments of third parties and performance guarantees on non-
consolidated affiliates as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, totaling $19 million and $15 million, respectively.

28.  Segment reporting

The operating segments through which CNH Industrial manages its operations are based on the internal reporting used 
by  the  CNH  Industrial  Chief  Operating  Decision  Maker  (“CODM”)  to  assess  performance  and  make  decisions  about 
resource allocation. 

CNH Industrial has three operating segments: 
▪

Agriculture  designs,  manufactures  and  distributes  a  full  line  of  farm  machinery  and  implements,  including  two-
wheel and four-wheel drive tractors, crawler tractors, combines, grape and sugar cane harvesters, hay and forage 
equipment,  planting  and  seeding  equipment,  soil  preparation  and  cultivation  implements,  and  material  handling 
equipment.  Agricultural  equipment  is  sold  under  the  New  Holland  Agriculture  and  Case  IH  brands.  Regionally 
focused  brands  include:  STEYR,  for  agricultural  tractors;  Flexi-Coil  specializing  in  tillage  and  seeding  systems; 
Miller  manufacturing  application  equipment;  Kongskilde  providing  tillage,  seeding  and  hay  &  forage  implements. 
Further,  starting  in  December  2021,  Raven  was  included  in  the Agriculture  segment  bringing  a  leader  in  digital 
agriculture, precision technology and the development of autonomous systems to CNH Industrial.  

▪

▪

Construction  designs,  manufactures  and  distributes  a  full  line  of  construction  equipment  including  excavators, 
crawler  dozers,  graders,  wheel  loaders,  backhoe  loaders,  skid  steer  loaders,  and  compact  track  loaders. 
Construction  equipment  is  sold  under  the  CASE  Construction  Equipment,  New  Holland  Construction  and 
Eurocomach brands.  

Financial Services offers retail note and lease financing to end-use customers for the purchase of new and used 
agricultural and construction equipment and components sold through CNH Industrial brands' dealer network, as 
well as revolving charge account financing and other financial services. Financial Services also provides wholesale 
financing to CNH Industrial brand dealers and distributors. Further, Financial Services provides trade receivables 
factoring  to  CNH  Industrial  companies.  The  European  operations  of  CNH  Industrial  Financial  Services  are 
supported by the Iveco Group's Financial Services segment. CNH Industrial Financial Services provides financial 
services to Iveco Group companies in the North America, South America and Asia Pacific regions.

The activities carried out by the two industrial segments Agriculture and Construction, as well as corporate functions, 
are collectively referred to as “Industrial Activities”. 

Revenues for each reported segment are those directly generated by or attributable to the segment as a result of its 
business activities and include revenues from transactions with third parties as well as those deriving from transactions 
with other segments, recognized at normal market prices. Segment expenses represent expenses deriving from each 
segment's business activities both with third parties and other operating segments or which may otherwise be directly 
attributable  to  it.  Expenses  deriving  from  business  activities  with  other  segments  are  recognized  at  normal  market 
prices.

With  reference  to  Industrial  Activities'  segments,  the  CODM  assesses  segment  performance  and  makes  decisions 
about  resource  allocation  based  upon Adjusted  EBIT  calculated  using  U.S.  GAAP.  CNH  Industrial  believes Adjusted 
EBIT more fully reflects Industrial Activities segments' inherent profitability. Adjusted EBIT of Industrial Activities under 
U.S.  GAAP  is  defined  as  net  income/(loss)  before:  Income  taxes,  Financial  Services'  results,  Industrial  Activities' 
interest expenses/(net), foreign exchange gains/losses, finance and non-service component of pension and other post-
employment  benefit  costs,  restructuring  expenses,  and  certain  non-recurring  items.  In  particular,  non-recurring  items 
are specifically disclosed items that management considers to be rare or discrete events that are infrequent in nature 
and not reflective of on-going operational activities. 

With reference to Financial Services, the CODM assesses the performance of the segment and makes decisions about 
resource allocation on the basis of net income prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 

The  following  table  summarizes  Adjusted  EBIT  of  Industrial  Activities  under  U.S.  GAAP  by  reportable  segment:

revenues.

30.  Information on financial risks

We are exposed to the following financial risks connected with our operations:

▪ credit risk related to our financing activities;

▪ market risk (primarily exchange rates and interest rates).

We attempt to actively manage these risks. 

The  quantitative  data  reported  in  the  following  paragraphs  does  not  have  any  predictive  value.  In  particular,  the 
sensitivity analysis on market risks does not reflect the complexity of the market or the reaction, which may result from 
any changes that are assumed to take place.

Credit risk

Our credit concentration risk differs in relation to the activities carried out by the segments and end markets in which we 
operate;  in  all  cases,  the  risk  is  mitigated  by  the  large  number  of  counterparties  and  customers.  Considered  from  a 
global point of view, however, there is a concentration of credit risk in trade receivables and receivables from financing 
activities, in particular dealer financing in the European Union market and in North America, as well as in South America 
for Agriculture and Construction.

CNH  Industrial  measures  the  loss  allowance  for  its  trade  receivables  and  contract  assets  at  an  amount  equal  to  the 
lifetime expected credit losses, which are the present value of the cash shortfalls over the expected life of the financial 
asset.

Financial assets are recognized in the statement of financial position net of write-downs for the risk that counterparties 
may  be  unable  to  fulfill  their  contractual  obligations,  determined  on  the  basis  of  the  available  information  as  to  the 
creditworthiness of the customer and historical data.

The maximum credit risk to which we were theoretically exposed at December 31, 2022 is represented by the carrying 
amounts  stated  for  financial  assets  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  and  the  nominal  value  of  the  guarantees 
provided on debt or commitments of third parties as discussed in Note 27 "Commitments and contingencies".

Dealers  and  final  customers  are  generally  subject  to  specific  assessments  of  their  creditworthiness  under  a  detailed 
scoring  system.  In  addition  to  carrying  out  this  evaluation  process,  we  may  also  obtain  financial  and  non-financial 
guarantees  for  risks  arising  from  credit  granted  for  the  sale  of  agricultural  equipment,  construction  equipment  and 
related parts. These guarantees are further secured, where possible, by retention of title clauses or specific guarantees 
on financed equipment sales to the distribution network and on equipment under finance or leasing agreements.

A financial asset has experienced a significant increase in credit risk when the customer shows signs of operational or 
financial weakness including past dues, which requires significant collection effort and monitoring and generally occurs 
when the customer becomes past due greater than 30 days. The assessment considers available information regarding 
the financial stability of the customer and other market/industry data. An account is typically considered in default when 
they are 90 days past due.

CNH Industrial utilizes three categories for receivables from financing activities that reflect their credit risk and the loan 

provision is determined.

Charge-offs  of  principal  amounts  of  receivables  outstanding  are  deducted  from  the  allowance  at  the  point  when  it  is 
estimated  that  amounts  due  are  deemed  uncollectible.  CNH  Industrial  continues  to  engage  in  collection  efforts  to 
attempt to recover the receivables. When recoveries are collected, these are recognized as income.

CNH Industrial’s allowance for credit losses is segregated into three portfolio segments: retail, wholesale and other. A 
portfolio segment is the level at which CNH Industrial develops a systematic methodology for determining its allowance 
for  credit  losses.  Further,  CNH  Industrial  evaluates  its  retail  and  wholesale  portfolio  segments  by  class  of  receivable: 
North  America,  Europe,  Middle  East  and  Africa  (EMEA),  South  America  and  Asia  Pacific  regions.  Typically,  CNH 
Industrial’s  receivables  within  a  geographic  area  have  similar  risk  profiles  and  methods  for  assessing  and  monitoring 
risk. These classes align with management reporting.

The  Group  accounts  for  its  credit  risk  by  appropriately  providing  for  expected  credit  losses  on  a  timely  basis.  In 
calculating the expected credit loss rates, CNH Industrial considers historical loss rates for each category of customers, 
and adjusts for forward looking macroeconomic data. 

In  calculating  the  expected  credit  losses,  CNH  Industrial’s  calculations  depend  on  whether  the  receivable  has  been 
individually identified as being impaired. The first component of the allowance for credit losses covers the receivables 
specifically reviewed by management for which CNH Industrial has determined it is probable that it will not collect all of 
the  contractual  principal  and  interest.  Receivables  are  individually  reviewed  for  impairment  based  on,  among  other 
items,  amounts  outstanding,  days  past  due  and  prior  collection  history.  Expected  credit  losses  are  measured  by 

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   215

considering: the unbiased and probability-weighted amount; the time value of money; and reasonable and supportable 
information  (available  without  undue  costs  or  effort)  at  the  reporting  date  about  past  events,  current  conditions  and 
forecasts of future economic conditions. Expected credit losses are measured as the probability-weighted present value 
of all cash shortfalls over the expected life of each financial asset.   

The  second  component  of  the  allowance  for  credit  losses  covers  all  receivables  that  have  not  been  individually 
reviewed for impairment. The allowance for these receivables is based on aggregated portfolio evaluations, generally 
by financial product. The allowance for wholesale and retail credit losses is based on loss forecast models that consider 
a variety of factors that include, but are not limited to, historical loss experience, collateral value, portfolio balance and 
delinquency. The loss forecast models are updated on a quarterly basis. The calculation is adjusted for forward looking 
macroeconomic  factors.  In  addition,  qualitative  factors  that  are  not  fully  captured  in  the  loss  forecast  models  are 
considered in the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. These qualitative factors are subjective 
and require a degree of management judgment. 

Liquidity risk

We are exposed to funding risk if there is difficulty in obtaining finance for operations at any given point in time.

The cash flows, funding requirements and liquidity of our subsidiaries are monitored on a centralized basis. The aim of 
this centralized system is to optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of the management of our capital resources.

Additionally, as part of our activities, we regularly carry out funding operations on the various financial markets which 
may  take  on  different  technical  forms  and  which  are  aimed  at  ensuring  that  it  has  an  adequate  level  of  current  and 
future liquidity.

Measures  taken  to  generate  financial  resources  through  operations  and  to  maintain  an  adequate  level  of  available 
liquidity  are  an  important  factor  in  ensuring  normal  operating  conditions  and  addressing  strategic  challenges.  We 
therefore plan to meet our requirements to settle liabilities as they fall due and to cover expected capital expenditures 
by using cash flows from operations and available liquidity, renewing or refinancing bank loans and making recourse to 
the bond market and other forms of funding.

The two main factors that determine our liquidity situation are the funds generated by or used in operating and investing 
activities and the debt lending period and its renewal features or the liquidity of the funds employed and market terms 
and conditions.

CNH Industrial has adopted a series of policies and procedures whose purpose is to optimize the management of funds 
and to reduce the liquidity risk, as follows:

▪ centralizing  the  management  of  receipts  and  payments,  where  it  may  be  economical  in  the  context  of  the  local 

statutory, currency and fiscal regulations of the countries in which we are present;

▪ maintaining an adequate level of available liquidity;

▪ diversifying the means by which funds are obtained and maintaining a continuous and active presence on the capital 

markets; 

▪ obtaining adequate credit lines; and

▪ monitoring future liquidity on the basis of business planning.

Details  as  to  the  repayment  structure  of  the  CNH  Industrial’s  financial  assets  and  liabilities  are  provided  in  Note 17 
“Current Receivables and Other current financial assets” and in Note 24 “Debt”. Details of the repayment structure of 
derivative financial instruments are provided in Note 18 “Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities”.

Management believes that the funds currently available, together with the funds that will be generated from operating 
and financing activities, will enable CNH Industrial to satisfy its requirements resulting from their investing activities and 
their working capital needs and to fulfill their obligations to repay their debts at their natural due date.

Market risk

We operate in numerous markets worldwide and are exposed to market risks stemming from fluctuations in currency 
and interest rates.

The  exposure  to  foreign  currency  risk  arises  both  in  connection  with  the  geographical  distribution  of  our  industrial 
activities  compared  to  the  markets  in  which  we  sell  our  products,  and  in  relation  to  the  use  of  external  borrowing 
denominated in foreign currencies.

The  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk  arises  from  the  need  to  fund  industrial  and  financial  operating  activities  and  the 
necessity  to  deploy  surplus  funds.  Changes  in  market  interest  rates  may  have  the  effect  of  either  increasing  or 
decreasing our profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

We regularly assess our exposure to foreign currency and interest rate risk and manage those risks through the use of 
derivative financial instruments in accordance with its established risk management policies.

Our policy permits derivatives to be used only for managing the exposure to fluctuations in exchange and interest rates 
connected with future cash flows and assets and liabilities, and not for speculative purposes.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   216

We utilize derivative financial instruments designated as fair value hedges, mainly to hedge:

▪ the currency risk on financial instruments denominated in foreign currency;

▪ the interest rate risk on fixed rate loans and borrowings.

The  instruments  used  for  these  hedges  are  mainly  currency  swaps,  forward  contracts,  interest  rate  swaps  and 
combined interest rate and currency financial instruments.

We use derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges for the purpose of pre-determining:

▪ the exchange rate at which forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies will be accounted for;

▪ the interest paid on borrowings, both to match the fixed interest received on loans (customer financing activity), and 

to achieve a pre-defined mix of floating versus fixed rate funding structured loans.

The  exchange  rate  exposure  on  forecasted  commercial  flows  is  hedged  by  currency  swaps,  forward  contracts  and 
currency options. Interest rate exposures are usually hedged by interest rate swaps and, in limited cases, by forward 
rate agreements.

Counterparties to these agreements are major and diverse financial institutions.

Information on the fair value of derivative financial instruments held at the balance sheet date is provided in Note 18 
“Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities”.

Currency risk

We are exposed to risk resulting from changes in exchange rates, which can affect our earnings and equity.

Where one of our subsidiaries incurs costs in a currency different from that of its revenues, any change in exchange 
rates can affect the profit/(loss) of that company. In 2022, the total net trade flows exposed to currency risk amounted to 
the equivalent of 19% of CNH Industrial's revenue (19% in 2021). 

The principal exchange rates to which we are exposed are the following:

▪ EUR/USD, in relation to the production/purchases of Agriculture and Construction in the euro area; 

▪ USD/BRL and EUR/BRL, in relation to production in Brazil and the respective import/export flows;

▪ AUD/USD, mainly in relation to sales made by Agriculture and Construction in Australia;

▪ EUR/GBP, predominately in relation to sales on the U.K. market.

Trade  flows  exposed  to  changes  in  these  exchange  rates  in  2022  made  up  approximately  73%  of  the  exposure  to 
currency risk from trade transactions. 

It  is  our  policy  to  use  derivative  financial  instruments  to  hedge  a  certain  percentage,  on  average  between  55%  and 
85%, of the forecasted trading transaction exchange risk exposure for the coming 12 months with additional flexibility to 
reach  0%  or  100%  (including  forecasted  risk  exposure  beyond  that  timeframe  where  it  is  believed  to  be  appropriate) 
and to hedge completely the exposure resulting from firm commitments.

Certain subsidiaries may hold trade receivables or payables denominated in a currency different from the subsidiary’s 
functional  currency.  In  addition,  in  a  limited  number  of  cases,  subsidiaries  may  obtain  financing  or  use  funds  in  a 
currency  different  from  their  functional  currency.  Changes  in  exchange  rates  may  result  in  exchange  gains  or  losses 
arising from these situations. It is our policy to hedge fully, whenever possible, the exposure resulting from receivables, 
payables, and securities denominated in currencies different from the subsidiary’s functional currency.

Certain  of  our  subsidiaries’  functional  currency  is  different  than  the  U.S.  dollar,  which  is  the  Group  presentation 
currency. The income statements of those subsidiaries are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate 
for the period, and while revenues and margins are unchanged in local currency, changes in exchange rates may lead 
to effects on the converted balances of revenues, costs and the results reported in U.S. dollars.

The  assets  and  liabilities  of  consolidated  companies  whose  functional  currency  is  different  from  the  U.S.  dollar  may 
acquire converted values in U.S. dollars which differ as a function of the fluctuation in exchange rates. The effects of 
these  changes  are  recognized  directly  in  the  Cumulative  Translation  Adjustments  reserve,  included  in  Other 
comprehensive income (see Note 21 "Equity").

We  monitor  our  principal  exposure  to  translation  exchange  risk,  although  there  was  no  specific  hedging  in  place  at 
December 31, 2022.

There  were  no  substantial  changes  in  2022  in  the  nature  or  structure  of  exposure  to  currency  risk  or  in  our  hedging 
policies.

Sensitivity analysis

The potential loss in fair value of derivative financial instruments held for currency risk management (currency swaps/
forwards,  currency  options,  interest  rate  and  currency  swaps)  at  December  31,  2022  resulting  from  a  hypothetical 
change  of  10%  in  the  exchange  rates  amounted  to  approximately  $276  million  ($344  million  at  December  31, 2021). 
The valuation model for currency options assumes that market volatility at year-end remains unchanged.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   217

Receivables, payables, and future trade flows whose hedging transactions have been analyzed were not considered in 
this analysis. It is reasonable to assume that changes in exchange rates will produce the opposite effect, of an equal or 
greater amount, on the underlying transactions that have been hedged. 

Interest rate risk

Our  Industrial  Activities  make  use  of  external  funds  obtained  in  the  form  of  financing  and  invest  in  monetary  and 
financial  market  instruments.  In  addition,  we  sell  receivables.  Changes  in  market  interest  rates  can  affect  the  cost  of 
financing, including the sale of receivables, or the return on investments of funds, causing an impact on the level of net 
financial expenses incurred by us.

In addition, Financial Services provides loans (mainly to customers and dealers), financed primarily using various forms 
of external borrowings or asset-backed financing (e.g., securitization of receivables). Where the characteristics of the 
variability  of  the  interest  rate  applied  to  loans  granted  differ  from  those  of  the  variability  of  the  cost  of  the  financing/
funding obtained, changes in the current level of interest rates can affect our profit/(loss).

In  order  to  mitigate  these  risks,  we  use  interest  rate  derivative  financial  instruments,  mainly  interest  rate  swaps  and 
forward rate agreements.

Interest rate benchmark reform

Certain existing benchmark InterBank Offered Rates (IBORs) such as USD LIBOR will be reformed by the authority and 
gradually  replaced  with  alternative  benchmark  rates.  Despite  the  uncertainty  around  the  timing  and  precise  nature  of 
these changes, the existing benchmark interest rates are still applied as reference rates.

To transition existing contracts and agreements that reference USD LIBOR to an alternative benchmark rate (SOFR), 
adjustments for term differences and credit differences might need to be applied to the alternative benchmark rate, to 
enable the two benchmark rates to be economically equivalent on transition.
The Group has issued US dollar-denominated fixed rate debt which it fair value hedges using sterling fixed to US dollar 
fixed to USD LIBOR interest rate swaps. At December 31, 2022, the notional amount of hedging instruments directly 
affected by the reform of benchmark interest rates is $1,220 million.

Group Treasury is managing the Group’s USD LIBOR transition plan. The greatest change will be amendments to the 
contractual  terms  of  the  USD  LIBOR-referenced  fixed-rate  debt  and  the  corresponding  update  of  the  hedge 
designation. 

In  calculating  the  change  in  fair  value  attributable  to  the  hedged  risk  of  fixed-rate  debt,  the  Group  has  made  the 
following assumptions that reflect its current expectations: 
▪ the  fixed-rate  debt  will  move  to  SOFR  at  the  beginning  of  2022  (or  at  July  2023  if  the  new  consultations  were 
confirmed)  and  the  spread  will  be  similar  to  the  spread  included  in  the  interest  rate  swap  used  as  the  hedging 
instrument;

▪ no other changes to the terms of the fixed-rate debt are anticipated; and

▪ the Group does not expect any material impact deriving from the replacement of benchmark interest rate.

Sensitivity analysis

In assessing the potential impact of changes in interest rates, we separate fixed rate financial instruments (for which the 
impact is assessed in terms of fair value) from floating rate financial instruments (for which the impact is assessed in 
terms of cash flows).

The fixed rate financial instruments used by us consist of retail receivables, debt, ABS securities, and other instruments.

The potential loss in fair value of fixed rate financial instruments (including the effect of interest rate derivative financial 
instruments)  held  at  December  31,  2022,  resulting  from  a  hypothetical,  unfavorable  and  instantaneous  change  of 
10% in market interest rates, would have been approximately $29 million ($20 million at December 31, 2021).

Floating  rate  financial  instruments  consist  principally  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  wholesale  receivables,  debt,  and 
ABS securities. The effect of the sale of receivables is also considered in the sensitivity analysis as well as the effect of 
hedging derivative instruments.

A hypothetical change of 10% in short-term interest rates at December 31, 2022, applied to floating rate financial assets 
and liabilities, operations for the sale of receivables and derivative financial instruments, would have caused increased 
net expenses before taxes, on an annual basis, of approximately $15 million ($3 million at December 31, 2021).

This  analysis  is  based  on  the  assumption  that  there  is  a  hypothetical  change  of  10%  in  interest  rates  across 
homogeneous categories. A homogeneous category is defined on the basis of the currency in which the financial assets 
and liabilities are denominated.

CNH Industrial   Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   218

Other risks on derivative financial instruments

We have entered derivative contracts linked to commodity prices to hedge specific exposures on supply contracts.

Sensitivity analysis

In the event of a hypothetical change of 10% in the underlying raw materials prices, the potential loss in fair value of 
outstanding  derivative  financial  instruments  at  December  31,  2022  linked  to  commodity  prices  would  not  have  been 
significant (not significant at December 31, 2021).

The fair value of Receivables from financing activities is based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at 
market  discount  rates  that  reflect  conditions  applied  in  various  reference  markets  on  receivables  with  similar 
characteristic, adjusted to take into account the credit risk of the counterparties.

Debt

All Debt is  classified as a Level 2 fair value measurement,  with the exception of the bonds issued by CNH Industrial 
Finance  Europe  S.A.  and  the  bonds  issued  by  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  that  are  classified  as  a  Level  1  fair  value 
measurement. The fair value of these bonds has been estimated making reference to quoted prices in active markets.

The fair value of Asset-backed financing, Borrowings from banks, Payable represented by securities and Other debt are 
included  in  the  Level  2  and  has  been  estimated  based  on  discounted  cash  flows  analysis  using  the  current  market 
interest rates at year-end adjusted for the Group non-performance risk over the remaining term of the financial liability.

The  fair  value  of  Lease  liabilities  classified  within  Level  3  of  the  fair  value  hierarchy  has  been  estimated  using 
discounted cash flow models that require significant adjustments using unobservable inputs.

Other financial assets and liabilities

The  carrying  amount  of  Cash  at  banks,  Restricted  cash,  Other  cash  equivalents,  Trade  receivables,  Other  current 
receivables  and  financial  assets,  Trade  payables  and  Other  current  liabilities  included  in  the  statement  of  financial 
position approximates their fair value, due to the short maturity of these items.

32.  Related party transactions

In  accordance  with  IAS  24  – Related  Party  Disclosures,  CNH  Industrial’s  related  parties  are  companies  and  persons

As of December 31, 2022, CNH Industrial's related parties were primarily EXOR N.V.  and the companies that EXOR 
N.V. controlled or had a significant influence over, including Iveco Group N.V. post-Demerger, Stellantis N.V. (formerly 
Fiat  Chrysler Automobiles  N.V.  which,  effective  January  16,  2021,  merged  with  Peugeot  S.A.  by  means  of  a  cross-
border  legal  merger)  and  its  subsidiaries  and  affiliates  ("Stellantis")  and  Iveco  Group  N.V.  which  effective  January  1, 
2022 separated from CNH Industrial N.V. by way of a demerger under Dutch law and became a public listed company 
independent from CNH Industrial’s unconsolidated subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures. In addition, the members 
of  the  Board  of  Directors  and  managers  of  CNH  Industrial  with  strategic  responsibility  and  members  of  their  families 
were also considered related parties.

As of December 31, 2022, based on public information available and in reference to the Company's files, EXOR N.V. 
held 42.8% of CNH Industrial’s voting power and had the ability to significantly influence the decisions submitted to a 
vote  of  CNH  Industrial’s  shareholders,  including  approval  of  annual  dividends,  the  election  and  removal  of  directors, 
mergers  or  other  business  combinations,  the  acquisition  or  disposition  of  assets,  and  issuances  of  equity  and  the 
incurrence  of  indebtedness.  The  percentage  above  has  been  calculated  as  the  ratio  of  (i)  the  aggregate  number  of 
common shares and special voting shares owned by EXOR N.V. to (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding common 
shares and special voting shares of CNH Industrial as of December 31, 2022.

In addition, CNH Industrial engages in transactions with its unconsolidated subsidiaries, joint ventures, associates and 
other related parties on commercial terms that are normal in the respective markets, considering the characteristics of 
the goods or services involved.

The Company’s Audit Committee reviews and evaluates all significant related party transactions.

Transactions with EXOR N.V. and its subsidiaries and affiliates

EXOR N.V. is an investment holding company in Europe. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, among 
other  things,  EXOR  N.V.  managed  a  portfolio  that  includes  investments  in  Stellantis,  Iveco  Group  and  Ferrari.  CNH 
Industrial did not enter into any significant transactions with EXOR N.V. during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 
2021. 

In connection with the establishment of Fiat Industrial (now CNH Industrial) through the demerger from Fiat (which was 
subsequently  merged  into  Fiat  Chrysler Automobiles  N.V.  which  is  now  Stellantis),  the  two  companies  entered  into  a 
Master Services Agreement (“Stellantis MSA”) which sets forth the primary terms and conditions pursuant to which the 
service provider subsidiaries of CNH Industrial and Stellantis provide services to the service receiving subsidiaries. As 
structured,  the  applicable  service  provider  and  service  receiver  subsidiaries  become  parties  to  the  Stellantis  MSA 
through  the  execution  of  an  Opt-in  letter  that  may  contain  additional  terms  and  conditions.  Pursuant  to  the  Stellantis 
MSA, service receivers are required to pay to service providers the actual cost of the services plus a negotiated margin. 
During 2022 and 2021, Stellantis subsidiaries provided CNH Industrial with administrative services such as accounting, 
cash  management,  maintenance  of  plant  and  equipment,  security,  information  systems  and  training  under  the  terms 
and conditions of the Stellantis MSA and the applicable Opt-in letters.

Furthermore, CNH Industrial and Stellantis engage in other minor transactions in the ordinary course of business.

33.  Explanatory notes to the statement of cash flows

The  statement  of  cash  flows  sets  out  changes  in  cash  and  cash  equivalents  during  the  year. As  required  by  IAS  7  - 
Cash  Flow  Statements,  cash  flows  are  separated  into  operating,  investing  and  financing  activities.  The  effects  of 
changes  in  exchange  rates  on  cash  and  cash  equivalents  are  shown  separately  under  the  line  item  Translation 
exchange differences.

The Group presents supplemental discussion and disclosure regarding the statement of cash flows for the purpose of 
additional analysis. Certain items discussed below, are reflected within the consolidated statement of cash flows either 
on an aggregate or net basis, and accordingly have been discussed further as set forth below.

Cash flows for income tax payments net of refunds in 2022 amount to $711 million ($348 million in 2021).

Total interest of $718 million was paid and interest of $446 million was received in 2022 (interest of $539 million was 
paid in 2021, and interest of $350 million was received in 2021). In 2021, the amount included a charge of $8 million in

Operating activities

Cash flows from/(used in) operating activities derive mainly from the Group’s main revenue producing activities. 

Cash generated from the sale of assets under operating leases, net of amounts included in Profit/(loss) for the period, is 
recognized  under  operating  activities  in  a  single  line  item,  which  includes  changes  in  working  capital,  capital 
expenditure, depreciation and impairment losses. 

Cash  from  operating  lease  is  recognized  under  operating  activities  in  a  single  line  item,  which  includes  capital 
expenditure, depreciation, write-downs and changes in inventory.

The  adjustment  to  exclude  Other  non-cash  items  of  $89  million  in  2022  ($19  million  in  2021)  includes  an  amount  of 
$2 million ($-60 million in 2021) related to result from investments net of impairment losses on assets recognized during 
the year. 

Changes in working capital for 2022 and 2021 are summarized as follows:

Liquidity  absorbed  by  the  increase  in  receivables  from  financing  activities  in 2022  was  primarily  a  result  of increased 
financing activities.

For consideration for the acquisition and disposal of subsidiaries and of other investments, refer to section "Business 
Combinations" above and to Note 14 "Investments and other non-current financial assets".

Financing activities

The net change in other financial payables and derivative assets/liabilities mainly reflects changes in borrowings from 
banks and in asset-backed financing, together with changes in derivative assets and liabilities (consisting of derivative 
financial instruments measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, as discussed in Note 18 "Derivative assets and 
Derivative liabilities" above).

These  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the  EU-IFRS  (see  section 
“Significant accounting policies”, paragraph “Basis of preparation”, for additional information).

CNH  Industrial  reports  quarterly  and  annual  consolidated  financial  results  in  accordance  with  EU-IFRS  for  European 
listing purposes and for Dutch law requirements and in accordance with U.S. GAAP for SEC reporting purposes.

EU-IFRS differ in certain significant requirements from U.S. GAAP. In order to help readers to understand the difference 
between  the  two  sets  of  financial  statements  of  the  Group,  CNH  Industrial  has  provided,  on  a  voluntary  basis,  a 
reconciliation from EU-IFRS to U.S. GAAP as follows:

Under  EU-IFRS,  costs  relating  to  development  projects  are  recognized  as  intangible  assets  when  costs  can  be 
measured  reliably  and  the  technical  feasibility  of  the  product,  volumes  and  pricing  support  the  view  that  the 
development  expenditure  will  generate  future  economic  benefits.  Under  U.S.  GAAP,  development  costs  are 
expensed as incurred. As a result, costs incurred related to development projects that have been capitalized under 
EU-IFRS  are  expensed  as  incurred  under  U.S.  GAAP.  Amortization  expenses,  net  of  result  on  disposal  and 
impairment  charges  of  previously  capitalized  development  costs  recorded  under  EU-IFRS,  have  been  reversed 
under U.S. GAAP.

(b) Other adjustments

It mainly includes the following items:

•

•

•

Goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets:  goodwill  is  not  amortized  but  rather  tested  for  impairment  at  least 
annually under both EU-IFRS and U.S. GAAP. The difference in goodwill and other intangible assets between 
the Group’s two sets of financial statements is primarily due to the different times when EU-IFRS and ASC 350 
- Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, were adopted. CNH Industrial transitioned to EU-IFRS on January 1, 2004. 
Prior to the adoption of EU-IFRS, goodwill was recorded as an intangible asset and amortized to income on a 
straight-line basis over its estimated period of recoverability, not exceeding 20 years. CNH Industrial adopted 
ASC 350 on January 1, 2002. Under U.S. GAAP through December 31, 2001, goodwill was recorded as an 
intangible asset and amortized to income on a straight-line basis over a period not exceeding 40 years. 

Defined  benefit  plans:  the  differences  related  to  defined  benefit  plans  are  mainly  due  to  the  different 
accounting for actuarial gains and losses and the net interest component of the defined benefit cost between 
EU-IFRS  and  U.S.  GAAP.  Under  EU-IFRS,  actuarial  gains  and  losses  are  recognized  immediately  in  other 
comprehensive  income  without  reclassification  to  profit  or  loss  in  subsequent  years;  net  interest  expense  or 
income  is  recognized  by  applying  the  discount  rate  to  the  net  defined  benefit  liability  or  asset  (the  defined 
benefit  obligation  less  the  fair  value  of  plan  assets,  allowing  for  any  assets  ceiling  restriction).  Under  U.S. 
GAAP, actuarial gains and losses are deferred through the use of the corridor method; interest cost applicable 
to the liability is recognized using the discount rate, while an expected return on assets is recognized reflecting 
management’s  expectations  on  long-term  average  rates  of  return  on  funds  invested  to  provide  for  benefits 
included in the projected benefit obligations.

Restructuring provisions: the main difference between EU-IFRS and U.S. GAAP with respect to accruing for 
restructuring costs is that EU-IFRS places emphasis on the recognition of the costs of the exit plan as a whole, 
whereas  U.S.  GAAP  requires  that  each  type  of  cost  is  examined  individually  to  determine  when  it  may  be 
accrued. Under IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, a provision for restructuring 
costs is recognized when the Group has a constructive obligation to restructure. Under U.S. GAAP, termination 
benefits are recognized in the period in which a liability is incurred. The application of U.S. GAAP often results 
in different timing recognition for the Group’s restructuring activities.

(c) Tax impact on adjustments and other income tax differences

This item includes the tax effects of adjustments included in (a) and (b), primarily related to development costs, 
as well as other differences arising in the accounting for deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Group’s policy 
for  accounting  for  deferred  income  taxes  under  EU-IFRS  is  described  in  section  “Significant  accounting 
policies”. This policy is similar to U.S. GAAP, which states that a deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for 
the  estimated  future  tax  effects  attributable  to  temporary  differences  and  tax  loss  carry  forwards.  Valuation 
allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not 
be  realized  based  on  available  evidence.  The  most  significant  accounting  difference  between  EU-IFRS  and 
U.S.  GAAP  relates  to  development  costs,  which  also  has  a  significant  impact  on  accumulated  deferred  tax 
assets  or  liabilities  and  on  U.S.  GAAP  pre-tax  book  income  or  loss  in  certain  jurisdictions.  As  a  result,  the 
assessment  of  tax  contingencies  and  recoverability  of  deferred  tax  assets  in  each  jurisdiction  can  vary 
significantly  between  EU-IFRS  and  U.S.  GAAP  for  financial  reporting  purposes.  This  adjustment  relates 
primarily to jurisdictions with U.S. GAAP pre-tax book losses higher than those recorded for EU-IFRS purposes.

NOTES TO THE 
COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

CNH Industrial N.V. (the “Company” and collectively with its subsidiaries, “CNH Industrial” or the “CNH Industrial Group” 
or  the  “Group”)  is  the  company  formed  by  the  business  combination  transaction  (the  “Merger”),  completed  on 
September  29,  2013,  between  Fiat  Industrial  S.p.A.  (“Fiat  Industrial”  and,  together  with  its  subsidiaries,  the  “Fiat 
Industrial  Group”)  and  its  majority  owned  subsidiary  CNH  Global  N.V.  (“CNH  Global”).  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  is 
incorporated  under  the  laws  of  the  Netherlands.  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  has  its  corporate  seat  in  Amsterdam,  the 
Netherlands,  and  the  place  of  effective  management  of  the  Company  is  in  the  United  Kingdom.  The  Company’s 
principal office and business address is at 25 St. James’s Street, London, SW1A 1HA, United Kingdom. The Company 
is registered at the Commercial Register kept at the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam under file number 56532474 
and at the Companies House in the United Kingdom under file number FC031116 BR016181. The Netherlands is the 
Company’s  home  member  state  for  the  purposes  of  the  EU  Transparency  Directive  (Directive  2004/109/EC,  as 
amended).  CNH  Industrial  is  a  leading  company  in  the  capital  goods  sector  that,  through  its  various  businesses, 
designs,  produces,  and  sells  agricultural  and  construction  equipment  (see  Note  28  “Segment  reporting”).  In  addition, 
CNH Industrial’s Financial Services segment offers an array of financial products and services, including retail financing 
for the purchase or lease of new and used CNH Industrial and other manufacturers’ products and other retail financing 
programs and wholesale financing to dealers. 

As  parent  company,  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  has  also  prepared  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for  CNH  Industrial 
Group for the year ended December 31, 2022.

History of CNH Industrial

During 2013, the process of combining the activities of CNH and Fiat Industrial was completed with the following steps:

▪ the cross-border merger of Fiat Netherlands Holding N.V. (“FNH”) with and into Fiat Industrial (the “FNH Merger”) 

which occurred on August 1, 2013;

▪ the  cross-border  reverse  merger  of  Fiat  Industrial  with  and  into  FI  CBM  Holdings  N.V.  (CNH  Industrial  after  the 

Merger) (the “FI Merger”); and

▪ the Dutch merger of CNH Global with and into FI CBM Holdings N.V. (the “CNH Merger”).

A primary objective of the Merger was to simplify the capital structure of Fiat Industrial (CNH Industrial subsequent to 
the Merger) by creating a single class of liquid stock listed on the NYSE and on the Euronext Milan.

All the companies (i.e., Fiat Industrial, FI CBM Holdings N.V., FNH and CNH Global N.V.) involved in the Merger were 
part of Fiat Industrial; in particular: (i) FNH was a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Fiat Industrial; (ii) FI CBM Holdings 
N.V.  was  a  wholly-owned  direct  subsidiary  of  Fiat  Industrial;  and  (iii)  CNH  Global  was  an  indirect  subsidiary  of  Fiat 
Industrial (controlled through FNH which owned approximately 87% of CNH Global’s capital stock).

The deeds of merger for the merger of Fiat Industrial and CNH Global with and into CNH Industrial N.V. were executed, 
respectively, on September 27 and 28, 2013. The effective date of the Merger was September 29, 2013.

During  2014,  the  Company  acquired  the  activities  of  the  plant  located  in  Basildon,  United  Kingdom. These  activities, 
which were previously held by a subsidiary, were transferred to the Company. The principal activity of the plant is the 
manufacture  and  sale  of  tractors  and  the  sale  of  agricultural  and  construction  equipment  and  machinery  in  the  local 
market  acting  as  distributor  of  product  manufactured  in  other  Group  companies.  With  effect  May  1,  2014  and  as  a 
consequence of the transfer, CNH Industrial N.V. shows in the Company financial statements the figures related to the 
operations of the Basildon plant.

Basis of preparation

The  2022  Company  financial  statements  of  the  parent  company,  CNH  Industrial  N.V.,  together  with  the  notes  thereto 
were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on February 28, 2023, and have been prepared in accordance 
with the legal requirements of Part 9, Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code. 

Section  362  (8),  Book  2,  Dutch  Civil  Code,  allows  companies  that  apply  IFRS  as  adopted  by  the  European  Union  in 
their  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  to  use  the  same  measurement  principles  in  their  company  financial 
statements.  The  accounting  policies  are  described  in  a  specific  section,  “Significant  accounting  policies”,  of  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report. In these Company financial statements, investments 
in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method. The Company financial statements are prepared on a going 
concern basis in accordance with paragraph 25 of IAS 1.

Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   230

CNH Industrial N.V. financial statements are presented in euros, the Company’s functional currency. The euro functional 
currency  of  the  Company  financial  statements  differs  from  the  U.S.  dollar  presentation  currency  of  the  Consolidated 
Financial Statements, which was elected to be used in order to improve comparability with main competitors, mainly in 
agricultural  equipment  and  construction  equipment  businesses,  and  to  provide  more  meaningful  information  to  U.S. 
investors.

Iveco Group Business Spin-off and Discontinued Operations

During 2021, CNH Industrial completed a strategic project to separate the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business”) from the 
Agriculture business, the Construction business, and the related Financial Services business. 

The Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. in accordance with Section 2:334a (3) of the Dutch 
Civil  Code  (Burgerlijk  Wetboek)  by  way  of  a  legal  statutory  demerger  (jurisdiche  afsplitsing)  to  Iveco  Group  N.V.  (the 
"Demerger"), effective January 1, 2022. 

The principal phases leading up to completion of the Demerger were as follows:
▪ On September 3, 2019, CNH Industrial announced at its Capital Markets Day event the intended Demerger.

▪ On December 23, 2021, an Extraordinary General Meeting of CNH Industrial shareholders was held to approve the 

Demerger of Iveco Group Business.

▪ On December 27, 2021, Borsa Italiana has admitted Iveco Group N.V. common shares to listing on Euronext Milan.

▪ Following  receipt  of  the  above  authorizations,  the  deed  of  Demerger  was  executed  on  December  31,  2021,  with 

effectiveness of the Demerger on January 1, 2022.

▪ On January 3, 2022 (the “First Trading Date”) Iveco Group common shares began trading on the regulated market 
Euronext Milan, under the ticker symbol ‘IVG’. As a result of the Demerger, each holder of CNH Industrial common 
shares (and special voting shares as the case may be) received one Iveco Group share for every five CNH Industrial 
common  shares  (or  special  voting  share  as  the  case  may  be)  held  at  close  of  business  on  the  record  date  for 
allocation  (January  4,  2022).  Since  January  3,  2022,  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  Iveco  Group  N.V.  have  been  quoted 
separately on the regulated markets and operate as independent listed companies, each with its own management 
and Board of Directors.

As the transaction took effect on January 1, 2022, the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 
31, 2022 relate to the remaining CNH Industrial business. Moreover, in accordance with IFRS 5 – Non-current Assets 
Held  for  Sale  and  Discontinued  Operations,  for  the  corresponding  information  of  earlier  periods,  the  Iveco  Group 
business is classified and presented as Discontinued Operations in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

For  additional  detail  of  items  presented  under  Discontinued  Operations  in  the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Income, 
Financial  Position  and  Cash  Flows,  refer  to  the  section  "Scope  of  Consolidation  -  Discontinued  Operations  -  Iveco 
Group Business". in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Additionally, as the Demerger is a “business combination involving entities or businesses under common control”, it is 
outside the scope of application of IFRS 3 – Business Combinations and IFRIC 17- Distributions of Non-cash Assets to 
Owners.  Accordingly,  in  the  2022  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  for  CNH  Industrial  Post-Demerger  the  opening 
position  for  items  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  will  be  equivalent  to  the  carrying  amounts  reported  in  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements of CNH Industrial Pre-Demerger.

Climate related matters

CNH Industrial has an established risk management process that includes the assessment and monitoring of climate-
related risk. These assessments are used by CNH Industrial to identify not only risk exposure, but also opportunities, on 
which the Group’s climate change strategy is based. The identification of these climate-related risks and opportunities, 
along  with  the  analysis  of  sustainability  macrotrends,  led  to  the  definition  of  a  decarbonization  strategy,  which  in  turn 
has  been  incorporated  within,  and  regularly  influences,  the  Group’s  Strategic  Business  Plan.  To  further  address  the 
potential impacts of climate change, CNH Industrial has implemented relevant projects and a number of other specific 
climate-related topics and has defined long-term strategic targets.

There  has  been  increasing  interest  in  how  climate  change  will  impact  the  Group’s  business.  With  reference  to  the 
climate  related  matters,  a  critical  review  was  undertaken,  and  a  focused  analysis  performed  to  identify,  and 
consequently manage, the principal risks and uncertainties to which the Group is exposed. The most significant area of 
effort will be the management of water scarcity and waste and the reducing energy and GHG emissions in the supply 
chain  area.  CNH  Industrial  recognizes  the  importance  of  climate  change  risk  and  promotes  a  responsible  use  of 
resources and a reduction of the environmental impact of production to mitigate climate change. In this context, CNH 
Industrial Group has adopted an environmental policy that applies to all company locations and divisions and has set up 
a structure dedicated to control environmental pollution, waste, and water disposal as well as emission reduction. 

Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   231

In  particular,  considering  the  financial  statements  information  are  presented  through  historical  values  which,  by  their 
nature,  do  not  fully  capture  future  events,  all  significant  assumptions  and  estimates  underlying  the  preparation  of  the 
following  items  were  subject  to  an  analysis  in  order  to  identify  and  address  the  new  uncertainties  related  to  climate 
changes  which  could  affect  the  business:  going  concern,  inventory  management,  property,  plant  and  equipment, 
goodwill, brands, intangible assets with a finite life, tax reliefs, revenue recognition, provisions and onerous contracts. 
The  analysis  conducted  were  based  on  the  Group  strategy  outlined  in  the  context  of  the  global  supply  chain 
environmental  targets  and  did  not  highlight  any  critical  situations  that  cannot  be  attributable  to  and  addressed  in  the 
ordinary course of the business.

Global Business Conditions

Significant  uncertainties,  including  rising  inflation,  geopolitical  instability,  and  the  war  in  Ukraine,  continue  to  create 
volatility in the global economy. These factors lead to inefficiencies in our manufacturing operations and impact costs. 
We continue to work to mitigate the impact of these issues in order to meet end-market demand. We will continue to 
monitor the situation as conditions remain fluid and evolve.

During the first quarter of 2022, CNH Industrial announced it was suspending non-domestic operations in Russia. CNH 
Industrial  is  supporting  its  businesses  in  this  market  through  the  continuation  of  employee  salaries  and  payment  of 
other  administrative  expenses. As  a  result  of  the  suspension,  we  evaluated  the  carrying  value  of  assets  held  within 
CNH Industrial's Russia operations. Upon completion of the evaluation, during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we 
recorded charges of $72 million related to asset write downs, financial receivable allowances and a valuation allowance 
against deferred tax assets. A prolonged war in Ukraine could have further adverse effects on us and our operations in 
Russia. The Russia-Ukraine conflict and the ensuing sanctions to Russia and Belarus and Russian counter-sanctions 
have  created  additional  tensions  in  the  commodity  markets.  CNH  Industrial  has  no  critical  supplier  in  the  affected 
countries, but prices for certain commodities, including natural gas, might create further volatility.

Format of the financial statements

As a consequence of the acquisition in 2014 of the manufacturing activity carried out in Basildon, CNH Industrial N.V. 
presents an income statement using a classification based on the function of expenses (otherwise known as the “cost 
of sales” method), rather than one based on their nature, as this is believed to provide information that is more relevant. 

New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022 
▪

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Property, Plant and Equipment—Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments 
to IAS 16) to prohibit deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from selling 
items  produced  before  that  asset  is  available  for  use  and  clarifying  the  meaning  of  "testing  whether  an  asset  is 
functioning properly". These amendments are effective retrospectively from January 1, 2022. These amendments 
had no impact on these Company Financial Statements. 

▪

▪

On  May  14,  2020,  the  IASB  issued  Onerous  Contracts—Cost  of  Fulfilling  a  Contract  (Amendments  to  IAS  37) 
specifying that the cost of fulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relate directly to the contract, including both 
the  incremental  costs  of  fulfilling  that  contract  and  an  allocation  of  other  costs  that  relate  directly  to  fulfilling 
contracts.  These  amendments  are  effective  retrospectively  from  January  1,  2022.  These  amendments  had  no 
impact on these Company Financial Statements. 

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements to IFRS 2018-2020 Cycle. The most important topics 
addressed in these amendments are: (i) on IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments clarifying which fees an entity includes 
when it applies the "10 per cent" test in assessing whether to derecognize a financial liability; and (ii) on IFRS 16 - 
Leases  removing  the  illustration  of  the  reimbursement  of  leasehold  improvements.  These  improvements  are 
effective from January 1, 2022. These amendments had no impact on these Company Financial Statements.

Accounting  standards,  amendments  and  interpretations  not  yet  applicable  and  not  early  adopted  by  the 
Company

The  main  accounting  standards,  amendments  and  interpretations  not  yet  applicable  and  not  early  adopted  by  the 
Company are the following:

▪ On February 12, 2021, the IASB issued the Amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS 
Practice  Statement  2:  Disclosure  of  Accounting  policies,  requiring  companies  to  disclose  the  material  accounting 
policy  information  rather  than  the  significant  accounting  policies.  Furthermore,  the  amendments  to  IFRS  Practice 
Statement  2  provide  guidance  on  how  to  apply  the  concept  of  materiality  to  accounting  policy  disclosures.  This 
amendment is effective from January 1, 2023.

▪ On  February  12,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  the  Amendments  to  IAS  8  -  Accounting  policies,  Changes  in  Accounting 
Estimates  and  Errors:  Definition  of  Accounting  Estimates.  The  amendments  clarify  how  to  distinguish  changes  in 
accounting policies (generally also applied retrospectively to past transactions and other past events) from changes 

Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022   232

in accounting estimates (applied prospectively only to future transactions and other future events). This amendment 
is effective from January 1, 2023.

▪ On  May  7,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  Deferred  Tax  related  to  Assets  and  Liabilities  arising  from  a  Single  Transaction 
(Amendments  to  IAS  12),  which  specifies  how  companies  should  account  for  deferred  tax  on  transactions  such  as 
leases  and  decommissioning  obligations.  The  amendments  clarify  that  no  exemption  applies  on  such  transactions 
and that companies are required to recognize deferred tax when they recognize the related assets or liabilities for the 
first  time.  The  amendments  are  effective  for  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  January  1,  2023,  with 
early application permitted.

Furthermore,  at  the  date  of  these  Company  Financial  Statements,  the  European  Union  has  not  yet  completed  its 
endorsement process for the amendments and improvements reported below.

The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  the  impact  of  the  adoption  of  these  amendments  and  improvements  on  its 
Company Financial Statements or disclosures:

▪ On  October  31,  2022,  the  IASB  has  published  "Non-current  Liabilities  with  Covenants"  Amendments  to  IAS  1  - 
Presentation of Financial Statements, to clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months 
after  the  reporting  periods  affect  the  classification  of  a  liability. The  amendments  are  effective  for  reporting  periods 
beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

▪ In  January  2020,  the  IASB  issued  amendments  to  IAS  1  -  Presentation  of  Financial  Statements,  to  clarify  its 
requirements  for  classifying  a  liability  as  non-current  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  The  amendments  are 
effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.

▪ On September 22, 2022, the IASB issued Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16) with 
amendments that clarify how a seller-lessee subsequently measures sale and leaseback transactions that satisfy the 
requirements in IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning 
on or after 1 January 2024.

Financial expenses payable to Group companies increased versus prior year by €8,522 thousand mainly due to the

of the us dollar against the euro have resulted in a net increase of the financial expenses.
Financial expenses payable to third parties increased by €4,007 thousand compared to 2021, and this was essentially 
due to the strengthening of the us dollar against the euro.

CNH Industrial N.V. is incorporated in the Netherlands, but the Company is a tax resident of the United Kingdom. The 
reconciliation of the differences between the theoretical income taxes at the parent statutory rate and the total income 
taxes is presented on the basis of the weighted average of the United Kingdom statutory main corporation tax rates in 
force over each of the Company’s calendar year reporting periods of 19.00% in both 2022 and 2021. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognized  for  temporary  differences  between  the  carrying  amount  in  the 
statement  of  financial  position  and  the  tax  base.  Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognized  to  the  extent  it  is  probable  that 
future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. Amounts recognized and 
unrecognized are as follows:

(€ thousand)

Deferred tax assets arising:

In relation to Tax depreciation

In relation to Pension deficit

In relation to short timing differences

The losses can be carried forward indefinitely, provided that the Company carries on the same trade and continues the 
manufacturing activity in the United Kingdom.

The net deferred tax assets of €908 thousand (€1,394 thousand in 2021) relate to the Italian branch.
Adjustments for net deferred tax assets of €148,927 thousand (€170,008 thousand in 2021) have been made, as in the 
opinion of the management it cannot be regarded as probable that there will be taxable profits against which these net 
deferred tax assets can be recovered.

The item Other primarily includes the impact of IAS 29 - Financial reporting in hyperinflationary economies applied for 
subsidiaries that prepare their financial statements in a functional currency of a hyperinflationary economy. In particular, 
from July 1, 2018, Argentina’s economy was considered to be hyperinflationary.

In  2021,  in  view  of  the  Demerger,  some  subsidiaries  were  involved  in  a  series  of  internal  transactions  in  order  to 
optimize the Group structure and facilitate the transfer of the subsidiaries belonging to the On-Highway business, now 
part of Iveco Group since January 1, 2022.  

“Contribution  to  Investments  in  Group  companies  and  other  equity  interests”,  “Acquisitions”,  “Repayments  of  Capital 
Reserves” and “Disposal” include the impact of the various transfers which were part of the overall project.

A list of Company’s investments has been included under Appendix of this Annual Report.

At December 31, 2022, Other financial assets are represented by a U.S. dollar term loan facility granted to Case New 
Holland Industrial Inc.. In addition, Case New Holland Industrial Inc. issued a Promissory Note to the Company.

The  U.S.  dollar  term  loan  was  issued  on  November  14,  2017,  with  maturity  date  November  15,  2027,  for  a  principal 
amount of $500 million or €468,779 thousand ($500 million or €441,462 thousand in 2021). The interest rate is fixed.

The  increase  of  the  carrying  value  of  the  U.S.  dollar  term  loan  of  €27,317  thousand  is  due  to  foreign  exchange 
movement as the U.S. dollar strengthened against the euro during the current year.

The decrease of €506,667 thousand compared to last year is mainly due to the fact that the other U.S. dollar term loan 
issued in August 2016 with maturity date August 15, 2023 and in the principal amounts of $450 million and a second 
tranche of $150 million was reclassified to Current financial receivables.

On  August  25,  2017,  Case  New  Holland  Industrial  Inc.  issued  a  Promissory  Note  to  the  Company  in  the  principal 
amount of €350 million, with a maturity date of August 25, 2024. The Promissory Note carries a floating interest rate.

Moreover, Other financial assets include accrued interest charges related to the term loan facilities for €2,739 thousand 
(€10,394 thousand in 2021).

On  September  15,  2022,  a  convertible  loan  was  granted  to  a  Group  Company  for  an  amount  of £2,000  thousand. A 
second  tranche  of  £1,000  thousand  was  paid  on  November  2,  2022.  At  December  31,  2022  the  total  outstanding 
amount included the capitalized interest was £3,038 thousand or €3,426 thousand. The convertible loan carries a fixed 
interest rate and the maturity date is August 31, 2024.
At December 31, 2022, the remaining amount of €32,218 thousand (€42,946 thousand in 2021) refers to the present 
value of the fees that the Company will collect in future years based on specific agreements for guarantees issued in 
favor  of  third  parties  in  the  interest  of  Group  companies,  mainly  for  bonds  issued  from  Group  companies  and  credit 
facilities granted to Group companies (see also Note 22 "Non-current debt").

The  decrease  of  €10,728  thousand  is  mainly  due  to  the  reduction  of  the  percentage  applied  for  the  commissions 
calculated on the guarantees issued and the amount of the guarantees issued.

This year the U.S. dollar term loan was reclassified to Current financial receivable from Financial fixed assets due to the 
forthcoming maturity date. 

Assets  from  derivative  financial  instruments  consist  of  derivative  financial  instruments  measured  at  fair  value  at  the 
balance sheet date. Derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. CNH Industrial utilizes 
derivative  instruments  to  mitigate  its  exposure  to  interest  rate  and  foreign  currency  fluctuations.  Derivatives  used  as 
hedges are effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and are designated as a hedge at 
the inception of the derivative contract.

16. Other current assets 

At  December  31,  2022,  other  current  assets  amounted  to  €56,790  thousand,  a  net  decrease  of  €28,716  thousand

Receivables  from  Group  companies  for  consolidated  Italian  corporate  tax  relate  to  taxes  calculated  on  the  taxable 
income contributed by Italian subsidiaries participating in the domestic tax consolidation program. The reduction of the 
receivables is mainly a consequence of the Iveco Group Business Spin off transaction, and the related exit from such 
program of some legal entities (former subsidiaries).
Receivables  from  Group  companies  for  consolidated  U.K.  corporate  tax  relate  to  taxes  calculated  on  the  taxable 
income contributed by U.K. subsidiaries participating in the domestic tax consolidation program.
Following  Brexit,  the  Italian  VAT  tax  consolidation  scheme  was  discontinued  starting  from  January  1,  2020  and,  as  a 
result,  the  Group’s  subsidiaries  directly  manage  relations  with  the  Italian  Tax Authority,  thereby  significantly  reducing 
relations with the parent company.

Credit risk associated with cash and cash equivalents is considered limited as the counterparties are leading national 
and international banks. 

Restricted cash mainly includes bank deposits that may be used exclusively for the repayment of the net liability relating 
to Pension plans in the U.K..

During 2021, CNH Industrial completed a strategic project to separate the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles business, 
the Powertrain business, and the related Financial Services business (together the “Iveco Group Business”) from the 
Agriculture business, the Construction business, and the related Financial Services business.

The Iveco Group Business was separated from CNH Industrial N.V. in accordance with Section 2:334a (3) of the Dutch 
Civil  Code  (Burgerlijk  Wetboek)  by  way  of  a  legal  statutory  demerger  (juridische  afsplitsing)  to  Iveco  Group  N.V.  (the 
"Demerger"), effective January 1, 2022.

As the transaction took effect on January 1, 2022, the Company financial statements for the year ended December 31, 
2021 relate to CNH Industrial Pre-Demerger. 

The share of the profit for the financial year 2021 of Iveco Group Business was recognized within the line item “Result 
from Investments in Group companies and other equity interests” and amounted to €52,000 thousand (excluding non-
controlling interests).

The  above  value  of  net  assets  demerged  was  equivalent  to  the  effect  of  the  Demerger  on  equity.  The  amount  of 
€2,289,000 thousand reduced the Capital Reserves of the Company as at January 1, 2022.

As values for the Demerger were based on the reported carrying amounts, and in these Company financial statements 
the  Investments  in  subsidiaries  are  accounted  for  using  the  equity  method,  no  gains  or  losses  were  recognized  and, 
accordingly, the above items were also transferred to Iveco Group N.V at their book value as resulting in the Company 
Financial Statements at December 31, 2021. 

The short term financial payables to CNH Industrial Finance S.p.A. related to an unsecure uncommitted revolving credit 
facility which was transferred to Iveco Group N.V. for a total amount of €1,568,000 thousand. The amount was fully paid 
by Iveco Group N.V. in January 2022.

Other  movements  of  Retained  profit/(loss)  includes  the  impact  of  IAS  29  -  Financial  reporting  in  hyperinflationary 
economies applied for subsidiaries that prepare their financial statements in a functional currency of a hyperinflationary 
economy. In particular, from July 1, 2018, Argentina’s economy was considered to be hyperinflationary. 

As  the  Company  financial  statements  are  prepared  using  the  same  measurement  principles  of  the  Consolidated 
Financial  Statements,  including  the  investments  that  are  accounted  for  using  the  equity  method,  the  total  Company 
equity  of  €7,087  million  as  of  December  31,  2022  is  in  line  with  the  Consolidated  equity  (excluding  non-controlling 
interest)  of  $7,559  million  converted  using  the  exchange  rate  as  of  December  31,  2022  of  1.0666.  In  addition,  the 
Company  profit  for  the  year  of  €1,773  million  equals  the  consolidated  profit  (excluding  non-controlling  interest)  of 
$1,867 million converted using the average exchange rate for 2022 of 1,05305.

The  net  decrease  in  equity  of  €323,377  thousand  over  year-end  2021  is  due  to  the  Iveco  Group  Business  Spin-off 
occurred on January 1, 2022. The net assets demerged was €2,289,422 thousand which had a consequent reduction 
on the Capital Reserves. The profit for the year of €1,772,948 thousand, the positive changes in Other comprehensive 
income arising from the positive effect of currency translation differences of €389,740 thousand, from the gains on the 
remeasurement  of  defined  benefit  plans  of  €111,106  thousand,  and  from  the  positive  impact  of  the  transactions 
accounted for under the Cash flow hedge reserves of €63,625 thousand, partly offset by the acquisition of the treasury 
shares for €150,149 thousand, contributed to significantly mitigate the impact of the demerger.
The  positive  effect  of  currency  translation  differences  of  €389,740  thousand  includes  the  valuation  of  the  opening 
balances of Equity converted using the exchange rate as of December 31, 2022 of 1,0666.

Share capital 

The  Articles  of  Association  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  provide  for  authorized  share  capital  of  €40  million,  divided  into 
2 billion common shares and 2 billion special voting shares to be held with associated common shares, each with a per

During the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, 145,297 and 109,904 special voting shares, respectively, were 
acquired for no consideration by the Company following the de-registration of the corresponding number of qualifying 
common shares from the Loyalty Register, net of transfer and allocation of special voting shares in accordance with the 
Special Voting Shares - Terms and Conditions. 

Furthermore, during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company delivered 0.6 million and 2.2 million 
common shares, respectively, under the Company’s stock compensation plan, primarily due to the vesting or exercise 
of share-based awards. See paragraph below “Share-based compensation” for further discussion.

The Company is required to maintain a special capital reserve to be credited against the share premium exclusively for 
the purpose of facilitating any issuance or cancellation of special voting shares. The special voting shares do not carry 
any entitlement to the balance of the special capital reserve. The Board of Directors is authorized to resolve upon (i) 
any distribution out of the special capital reserve to pay up special voting shares or (ii) re-allocation of amounts to credit 
or debit the special capital reserve against or in favor of the share premium reserve. 

The  Company  is  required  to  maintain  a  separate  dividend  reserve  for  the  special  voting  shares.  The  special  voting 
shares shall not carry any entitlement to any other reserve of the Company. Any distribution out of the special voting 
shares  dividend  reserve  or  the  partial  or  full  release  of  such  reserve  will  require  a  prior  proposal  from  the  Board  of 
Directors and a subsequent resolution of the general meeting of holders of special voting shares.

From the profits, shown in the annual accounts, as adopted, such amounts shall be reserved as the Board of Directors 
may determine. 

The profits remaining thereafter shall first be applied to allocate and add to the special voting shares dividend reserve 
an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the aggregate nominal amount of all outstanding special voting shares. The 
calculation of the amount to be allocated and added to the special voting shares dividend reserve shall occur on a time-
proportionate  basis.  If  special  voting  shares  are  issued  during  the  financial  year  to  which  the  allocation  and  addition 
pertains, then the amount to be allocated and added to the special voting shares dividend reserve in respect of these 
newly  issued  special  voting  shares  shall  be  calculated  as  from  the  date  on  which  such  special  voting  shares  were 
issued until the last day of the financial year concerned. The special voting shares shall not carry any other entitlement 
to the profits. 

Any  profits  remaining  thereafter  shall  be  at  the  disposal  of  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  for  distribution  of 
dividend  on  the  common  shares  only  subject  to  the  provision  that  the  distribution  of  profits  shall  be  made  after  the 
adoption of the annual accounts, from which it appears that the same is permitted.

Subject  to  a  prior  proposal  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  may  declare  and  pay 
dividends in U.S. dollars. Furthermore, subject to the approval of the general meeting of shareholders and the Board of 
Directors having been designated as the body competent to pass a resolution for the issuance of shares in accordance 
with Article 5 of the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors may decide that a distribution shall be made in the 
form  of  shares  or  that  shareholders  shall  be  given  the  option  to  receive  a  distribution  either  in  cash  or  in  the  form  of 
shares.

Dividend Proposal and appropriation of the result

On  February  2,  2023,  CNH  Industrial  announced  that  the  Board  of  Directors  intends  to  recommend  an  annual  cash 
dividend  of  €0.36  per  common  share,  totaling  approximately  €483  million  (equivalent  to  approximately  $511  million), 
subject to shareholder approval.

Subject to the adoption of the Annual Financial Statements by the Annual General Meeting of shareholders and after 
the  allocation  of  the  relevant  amount  to  the  special  voting  shares  dividend  reserve  in  accordance  with  article  22, 
paragraph 4, of the Articles of Association, any profits remaining shall be allocated to the Retained earnings and be at 
the disposal of the general meeting of shareholders for distribution of dividend on the outstanding common shares only, 
based on the recommendations and proposal of the Board of Directors and subject to the provision of the Article 22, 
paragraph 8, of the Articles of Association.

On April 13, 2022, at the AGM, CNH Industrial N.V. shareholders approved a dividend of €0.28 per common share, as 
recommended on March 1, 2022 by the Board of Directors. The cash dividend was declared in euro and paid on May 4, 
2022 for a total amount of $412 million (€379 million).

The Company shall only have power to make distributions to shareholders and other persons entitled to distributable 
profits to the extent the Company's equity exceeds the sum of the paid-up portion of the share capital and the reserves 
that must be maintained in accordance with provision of law. No distribution of profits may be made to the Company 
itself for shares that the Company holds in its own share capital. 

The Board of Directors has the power to declare one or more interim dividends, provided that the requirements of the 
Article 22 paragraph 5 of the Articles of Association are duly observed as evidenced by an interim statement of assets 
and liabilities as referred to in Article 2:105 paragraph 4 of the Dutch Civil Code and provided further that the policy of 
the Company on additions to reserves and dividends is duly observed. The provisions of the Article 22 paragraphs 2 
and 3 of the Articles of Association shall apply mutatis mutandis.

The Board of Directors may determine that dividends or interim dividends, as the case may be, shall be paid, in whole 
or in part, from the Company's share premium reserve or from any other reserve, provided that payments from reserves 
may only be made to the shareholders that are entitled to the relevant reserve upon the dissolution of the Company.

Dividends and other distributions of profit shall be made payable in the manner and at such date(s) - within four weeks 
after declaration thereof - and notice thereof shall be given, as the general meeting of shareholders, or in the case of 
interim dividends, the Board of Directors shall determine, provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall have the 
right to determine that each payment of annual dividends in respect of shares be deferred for a period not exceeding 
five consecutive annual periods.

Dividends and other distributions of profit, which have not been collected within five years and one day after the same 
have become payable, shall become the property of the Company.

In  the  event  of  a  winding-up,  a  resolution  to  dissolve  the  Company  can  only  be  passed  by  a  general  meeting  of 
shareholders pursuant to a prior proposal of the Board of Directors. In the event a resolution is passed to dissolve the 
Company,  the  Company  shall  be  wound-up  by  the  Board  of  Directors,  unless  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders 
would resolve otherwise.

The general meeting of shareholders shall appoint and decide on the remuneration of the liquidators.

Until the winding-up of the Company has been completed, the Articles of Association of the Company shall to the extent 
possible, remain in full force and effect.

Loyalty voting program

In order to reward long-term ownership of the Company’s common shares and promote stability of its shareholder base, 
the  Articles  of  Association  of  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  provide  for  a  loyalty-voting  program  that  grants  eligible  long-term 
shareholders  the  equivalent  of  two  votes  for  each  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  common  share  that  they  hold.  This  has  been 
accomplished through the issuance of special voting shares. 

A shareholder may at any time elect to participate in the loyalty voting program by requesting the registration of all or 
some of the common shares held by such shareholder in a separate register (the “Loyalty Register”) of the Company. If 
such  common  shares  have  been  registered  in  the  Loyalty  Register  for  an  uninterrupted  period  of  three  years  in  the 
name of the same shareholder, such shares will become “Qualifying Common Shares” and the relevant shareholder will 
be entitled to receive one special voting share for each such Qualifying Common Share which can be retained only for 
so long as the shareholder retains the associated common share and registers it in the Loyalty Register.

Shareholders are not required to pay any amount to the Company in connection with the allocation of the special voting 
shares.

The  common  shares  are  freely  transferable,  while,  special  voting  shares  are  transferable  exclusively  in  limited 
circumstances and they are not listed on the NYSE or the Euronext Milan. In particular, at any time, a holder of common 
shares that are Qualifying Common Shares who wants to transfer such common shares other than in limited specified 
circumstances (e.g., transfers to affiliates or relatives through succession, donation or other transfers) must request a 

Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    244

de-registration  of  such  Qualifying  Common  Shares  from  the  Loyalty  Register.  After  de-registration  from  the  Loyalty 
Register,  such  common  shares  no  longer  qualify  as  Qualifying  Common  Shares  and,  as  a  result,  the  holder  of  such 
common shares is required to transfer the special voting shares associated with the transferred common shares to the 
Company for no consideration. 

The special voting shares have minimal economic entitlements as the purpose of the special voting shares is to grant 
long-term  shareholders  with  an  extra  voting  right  by  means  of  granting  an  additional  special  voting  share,  without 
granting such shareholders with any additional economic rights. However, as a matter of Dutch law, such special voting 
shares cannot be fully excluded from economic entitlements. Therefore, the Articles of Association provide that only a 
minimal  dividend  accrues  to  the  special  voting  shares,  which  is  not  distributed,  but  allocated  to  a  separate  special 
dividend reserve. The impact of this special dividend reserve on the earnings per share of the common shares is not 
material.

Treasury shares

In order to maintain the necessary operating flexibility over an adequate time period, including the implementation of the 
program in place, on April 13, 2022, the Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) granted to the Board of Directors the authority 
to acquire common shares in the capital of the Company through stock exchange trading on the Euronext Milan and the 
NYSE or otherwise for a period of 18 months (i.e., up to and including October 12, 2023). Under such authorization the 
Board’s authority is limited to a maximum of up to 10% of the issued common shares as of the date of the AGM and, in 
compliance with applicable rules and regulations, subject to a maximum price per common share equal to the average 
of the highest price on each of the five trading days prior to the date of acquisition, as shown in the Official Price List of 
the  Euronext  Milan  or  NYSE  (as  the  case  may  be)  plus  10%  (maximum  price)  and  to  a  minimum  price  per  common 
share equal to the average of the lowest price on each of the five trading days prior to the date of acquisition, as shown 
in the Official Price List of the Euronext Milan or NYSE (as the case may be) minus 10% (minimum price). 

Neither the renewal of the authorization, nor the launch of any program obliges the Company to buy-back any common 
shares. The  launch  of  any  new  program  will  be  subject  to  a  further  resolution  of  the  Board  of  Director.  In  any  event, 
such programs may be suspended, discontinued or modified at any time for any reason and without previous notice, in 
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 12,390,052 shares of its common stock on the 
Euronext Milan and on multilateral trading facilities ("MTFs") under the buy-back program. As of December 31, 2022, 
the Company held 20.2 million common shares in treasury, net of transfers of common shares to fulfill its obligations 
under  its  stock  compensation  plans,  at  an  aggregate  cost  of  $227  million.  Depending  on  market  and  business 
conditions and other factors, the Company may continue or suspend purchasing its common stock at any time without 
notice. 

At the 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors intends to recommend to the Company’s 
shareholders  the  renewal  of  the  authorization  to  repurchase  up  to  a  maximum  of  10%  of  the  Company’s  issued 
common shares for further 18 months.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company acquired, for no consideration, 145,297 special voting shares 
following the de-registration of qualifying common shares from the Loyalty Register, net of the transfer and allocation of 
special voting shares to those shareholders whose qualifying common shares became eligible to receive special voting 
shares  after  the  uninterrupted  three-year  registration  period  in  the  Loyalty  Register.  As  of  December  31,  2022,  the 
Company held 25.4 million special voting shares in treasury.

Effects of the Demerger on the treasury shares held CNH Industrial N.V.

CNH Industrial N.V. did not receive any shares in Iveco Group as a part of the Demerger, the portion of the shares held 
in treasury by CNH Industrial N.V. was not eligible to be part of the Demerger and consequent allotment of Iveco Group 
N.V. shares.

Capital reserves

At  December  31,  2022,  capital  reserves  amounting  to  €267  million  (€2,477  million  at  December  31,  2021)  mainly 
consist of the share premium deriving from the Merger which has been reduced by the net impact of the Iveco Group 
Business spin-off.

Effects of the Demerger on the Capital reserves of CNH Industrial N.V.

The  value  of  the  net  assets  demerged  on  January  1,  2022,  equaled  to  €2,289  million  and  fully  reduced  the  Capital 
reserves of CNH Industrial N.V. accordingly.

Legal reserves

As of December 31, 2022, legal reserves amounted to €1,283 million (€1,624 million at December 31, 2021) and mainly 
relate to unrealized currency translation losses and other OCI components for a net negative amount of €201 million, 
and other reserves for €1,484 million.

Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    245

Other OCI components includes primarily net unrealized actuarial losses related to the defined benefit plans which as of 
December  31,  2022,  amounted  to  €45  million  (€298  million  at December  31,  2021).  In  addition,  the  cash  flow  hedge 
reserve  is  also  part  of  OCI  and  this  year  the  amount  is  positive  for  €64  million  (€1  million  negative  at  December  31, 
2021). As a result, the net amount of OCI is €19 million positive amount at December 31, 2022. This part is considered 
distributable reserve. 
As a consequence, the total amount considered not distributable as of December 31, 2022, equaled to €1,502 million 
(€2,772 million at December 31, 2021). As a result, the distributable reserves as at December 31, 2022 amounted to 
€5,585 million.

Other reserves are made up by research and development costs capitalized by the Company for €71 million and by the 
equity investments for €645 million (€5 million and €1,806 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021), earnings from 
affiliated companies subject to certain restrictions on the transfer of funds to the parent company in form of dividend or 
otherwise  for  €415  million  (€511  million  at  December  31,  2021)  and  earnings  from  subsidiaries  that  due  to  local  law 
requirements  cannot  be  distributed  as  dividend,  unless  the  subsidiary  is  liquidated,  for  €354  million  (€432  million  at 
December 31, 2021).

Pursuant  to  Dutch  law,  limitations  exist  relating  to  the  distribution  of  shareholders’  equity  for  the  entire  amount  of  the 
legal reserves. By their nature, unrealized losses relating to currency translation differences reduce shareholders’ equity 
and thereby distributable amounts. 

Share-based compensation 

CNH  Industrial’s  equity  awards  are  governed  by  several  plans:  i)  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  Equity  Incentive  Plan  (“CNH 
Industrial  EIP”);  ii)  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  Directors’  Compensation  Plan  (“CNH  Industrial  DCP”);  iii)  CNH  Global  N.V. 
Equity Incentive Plan (“CNH EIP”); and, iv) CNH Global N.V. Directors’ Compensation Plan (“CNH DCP”).

For more information on Share-based compensation see Note 21 "Equity" of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

20. Provisions for employee benefits 

CNH  Industrial  N.V.  provides  pension,  healthcare  and  insurance  plans  and  other  post-employment  benefits  to  their 
employees  and  retirees,  either  directly  or  by  contributing  to  independently  administered  funds.  These  benefits  are 
generally based on the employees’ remuneration and years of service. 

The Company provides post-employment benefits under defined contribution and defined benefit plans.

In  the  case  of  defined  contribution  plans,  the  Company  makes  contributions  to  publicly  or  privately  administered 
pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. Once the contributions have been made, the 
Company  has  no  further  payment  obligations.  The  Company  recognizes  the  contribution  cost  when  the  employees 
have rendered their service and includes this cost by function in Cost of sales, Selling, general and administrative costs 
and  Research  and  development  costs.  During  the  years  ended  December  31,  2022  and  2021,  CNH  Industrial  N.V. 
recorded  expenses  of  €13,017  thousand  and  €12,059  thousand,  respectively,  for  its  defined  contribution  plans, 
inclusive of social security contributions in the categories as described above.

Defined benefit plans may be unfunded, or they may be wholly or partly funded by contributions made by an entity, and 
sometimes by its employees, into an entity, or fund, that is legally separate from the employer from which the employee 
benefits  are  paid.  Benefits  are  generally  payable  under  these  plans  after  the  completion  of  employment.  Defined 
benefits plans are classified by the Company as Pension plans or Other post-employment benefits on the basis of the 
type of benefit provided.

Pension plans

The  item  Pension  plans  principally  comprise  the  obligations  towards  certain  employees  and  former  employees  of  the 
CNH Industrial Group in the United Kingdom. 

Under these plans, contributions are made to a separate fund (trust) which independently administers the plan assets. 
The  Company’s  funding  policy  is  to  meet  the  minimum  funding  requirements  pursuant  to  the  laws  and  regulations  of 
each individual country. The Company may also choose to make discretionary contributions in addition to the funding 
requirements. To the extent that a fund is overfunded, the Company is not required to make further contribution to the 
plan in respect of a minimum performance requirements so long as the fund is in surplus.

Following  collective  consultation  with  members  of  the  United  Kingdom  defined  benefit  pension  plans,  these 
arrangements  closed  to  future  accrual  on  January  31,  2020.  Active  employees  were  transferred  to  the  Company’s, 
market competitive, defined contribution arrangement.

The  benefits  accrued  for  active  members  up  to  January  31,  2020,  were  not  affected  by  the  closure.  The  closure  to 
future accrual also had no impact on deferred or pensioner members of the plans.

Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022    246

Other post-employment benefits

Other post-employment benefits consist of obligations  for Italian Employee Leaving Entitlements up to December 31, 
2006.  The  TFR  scheme  has  since  changed  to  a  defined  contribution  plan.  The  obligation  on  our  balance  sheet 
represents  the  residual  reserve  for  years  prior  to  December  31,  2006  relating  to  the  Italian  employees  of  the  Italian 
branch.  Loyalty  bonuses  are  accrued  for  employees  who  have  reached  certain  service  seniority  and  are  generally 
settled when employees leave the Company. These plans are not required to be funded and, therefore, have no plan 
assets.

Assumed discount rates are used in measurements of pension and other post-employment benefit obligations and net 
interest  on  the  net  defined  benefit  liability/asset.  CNH  Industrial  selects  its  assumed  discount  rates  based  on  the 
consideration  of  equivalent  yields  on  high-quality  fixed  income  investments  at  the  measurement  date.  The  discount 
rates  are  based  on  a  benefit  cash  flow-matching  approach  and  represent  the  rates  at  which  the  benefit  obligations 
could  effectively  be  settled  as  of  the  measurement  date,  December  31.  The  benefit  cash  flow-matching  approach 
involves analyzing the CNH Industrial’s projected cash flows against a high-quality bond yield curve, mainly calculated 
using  a  wide  population  of  AA-yield  corporate  bonds  subject  to  minimum  amounts  outstanding  and  meeting  other 
defined selection criteria. The discount rates for CNH Industrial’s remaining obligations are based on benchmark yield 
data  of  high-quality  fixed  income  investments  for  which  the  timing  and  amounts  of  payments  approximate  the  timing 
and amounts of projected benefit payments.

Plan assets

The  investment  strategy  varies  depending  on  the  circumstances  of  the  underlying  plan.  Typically,  less  mature  plan 
benefit obligations are funded by using more equity securities as they are expected to achieve long-term growth while 
exceeding the rate of inflation. More mature plan benefit obligations are funded using more fixed income securities as 
they  are  expected  to  produce  current  income  with  limited  volatility.  Risk  management  practices  include  the  use  of 
multiple  asset  classes  and  investment  managers  within  each  asset  class  for  diversification  purposes.  Specific 
guidelines for each asset class and investment manager are implemented and monitored.

Plan assets do not include treasury shares of CNH Industrial N.V. or properties occupied by it. The fair value of the plan 
assets at December 31, 2022 may be disaggregated by asset class and level as follows. Fair value levels presented 
below  are  described  in  the  “Significant  accounting  policies  –  Fair  value  measurement”  section  of  the  Notes  to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

At December 31, 2022, Non-current debt totaled €473,302 thousand and consisted mainly of a Bond with the following 
features:

▪ $500 million at an interest rate of 3.85%, due on November 15, 2027, issued by the Company in November 2017. 
The  outstanding  amount  at  year  end  is  $500  million.  The  bond  is  valued  using  the  amortized  cost,  for  a 
corresponding amount of €431,555 thousand at December 31, 2022 (€435,008 thousand at December 31, 2021). At 
December 31, 2022, the fair value of the bond is €441,493 thousand (€441,462 thousand at December 31, 2021).

The reduction of the Bonds in respect of prior year is due to the fact that the Bond of $600 million at an interest rate of 
4.50%,  due  on  August  15,  2023  and  issued  by  the  Company  in  August  2016  was  reclassified  to  Current  financial 
liabilities. The outstanding amount at year end was $600 million. 
The Bond is classified as a Level 1 fair value measurement. Their fair value has been estimated making reference to 
quoted prices in active markets.

The  bonds  issued  by  the  Company  contain  commitments  of  the  issuer  which  are  typical  of  international  practice  for 
bonds issues of this type such as, in particular, negative pledge (in relation to quoted indebtedness), a status (or pari 
passu) and cross default clauses. A breach of these commitments can lead to the early repayment of the issued notes. 
In  addition,  the  bonds  contain  clauses  which  could  lead  to  early  repayment  if  there  is  a  change  of  control  of  CNH 
Industrial N.V. leading to a rating downgrading. At December 31, 2022 there were no breaches of such commitments.

The  Company  intends  to  repay  the  issued  bonds  in  cash  at  the  due  date  by  utilizing  available  liquid  resources.  In 
addition,  it  can  buy  back  its  issued  bonds.  Such  buy  backs,  if  made,  depend  upon  market  conditions,  the  financial 
situation of the Group and other factors which could affect such decisions.

At  December  31,  2022,  Non-current  debt  included  also  the  item  financial  guarantees  for  €32,218  thousand 
(€42,946 thousand in 2021) that represent the fair value of liabilities assumed in relation to guarantees issued by the 
Company. Following an assessment of potential risks requiring recognition of contingent liabilities and given that those 
liabilities essentially related to guarantees issued in favor of third parties in the interest of Group companies, mainly for 
bonds issued from Group companies and loans granted to Group companies, the present value of fees receivable (see 
Note 12 "Other financial assets") is considered the best estimate of the fair value of those guarantees.

At December 31, 2022 liabilities from leases amounted to €9,259 thousand, (€10,393 thousand at December 31, 2021), 
of  which  €3,805  thousand  (€2,851  thousand  at  December  31,  2021)  due  within  one  year,  and  the  remaining  part  of 
€5,724 thousand (€7,542 thousand at December 31, 2020) is due between one and five years.

At  December  31,  2022,  €4,695  thousand  (€3,238  thousand  at  December  31,  2021)  for  the  principal  portion  of  lease 
liabilities  and  €271  thousand  (€158  thousand  at  December  31, 2021)  for  interest  expenses  related  to  lease  liabilities 
were paid.

The short term financial payables to CNH Industrial Finance Europe S.A. relate to an unsecured uncommitted revolving 
credit  facility  agreement  with  CNH  Industrial  Finance  Europe  S.A.,  where  the  latter  has  made  available  to  CNH 
Industrial N.V. an uncommitted facility in a maximum aggregate amount of €6.5 billion. 

The  short  term  financial  payables  to  CNH  Industrial  Finance  S.p.A.  and  CNH  Industrial  Finance  Europe  S.A.  bear 
floating interest at market rate. Such credit facilities are unsecured.

Pursuant  to  the  Demerger  of  the  Iveco  Group  Business,  carried  out  on  January  1,  2022,  the  Company  transferred 
€1,568,000 thousand of its current financial liabilities with CNH Industrial Finance S.p.A. to Iveco Group N.V. (see Note 
18).
The carrying amount of those liabilities is deemed to be in line with their fair value.

The  Bond  of  $600  million  with  a  fix  interest  rate  of  4.50%,  due  on August  15,  2023,  was  issued  by  the  Company  in 
August 2016. The outstanding amount at year end is $600 million. The bond is valued using the amortized cost, for a 
corresponding  amount  of  €568,342  thousand  at  December  31,  2022  (€538,630  thousand  at  December  31,  2021). At 
December 31, 2022, the fair value of the bond is €559,492 thousand (€556,936 thousand at December 31, 2021).

At December 31, 2021 this Bond was included under Non-current debt whereas this year it has been reclassified due to 
the forthcoming maturity date.

The Bond is classified as a Level 1 fair value measurement. Their fair value has been estimated making reference to 
quoted prices in active markets.

The  bonds  issued  by  the  Company  contain  commitments  of  the  issuer  which  are  typical  of  international  practice  for 
bonds issues of this type such as, in particular, negative pledge (in relation to quoted indebtedness), a status (or pari 
passu) and cross default clauses. A breach of these commitments can lead to the early repayment of the issued notes. 
In  addition,  the  bonds  contain  clauses  which  could  lead  to  early  repayment  if  there  is  a  change  of  control  of  CNH 
Industrial N.V. leading to a rating downgrading. At December 31, 2022 there were no breaches of such commitments.

The  Company  intends  to  repay  the  issued  bonds  in  cash  at  the  due  date  by  utilizing  available  liquid  resources.  In 
addition,  it  can  buy  back  its  issued  bonds.  Such  buy  backs,  if  made,  depend  upon  market  conditions,  the  financial 
situation of the Group and other factors which could affect such decisions.

Liability  from  derivative  financial  instruments  consist  of  derivative  financial  instruments  measured  at  fair  value  at  the 
balance sheet date. 

Derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

CNH Industrial utilizes derivative instruments to mitigate its exposure to interest rate and foreign currency fluctuations. 
Derivatives  used  as  hedges  are  effective  at  reducing  the  risk  associated  with  the  exposure  being  hedged  and  are 
designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. 

25. Other debt

Intercompany  debt  for  consolidated  Italian  corporate  tax  was  nil  as  December  31.  2022  (€43,776  thousand  at 
December 31, 2021). It consisted of compensation payable for tax losses and Italian corporate tax credits contributed 
by Italian subsidiaries participating in the domestic tax consolidation program, in relation to which CNH Industrial N.V. is 
the  consolidating  entity.  The  reduction  of  the  debt  is  a  consequence  of  the  Iveco  Group  demerger  completed  on 
January  1,  2022,  that  resulted  in  the  exit  from  the  tax  consolidation  program  of  a  number  of  legal  entities  (former 
subsidiaries), which used to contribute the tax losses.

Following  Brexit,  the  Italian  VAT  tax  consolidation  scheme  was  discontinued  starting  from  January  1,  2020  and,  as  a 
result,  the  Group’s  subsidiaries  directly  manage  relations  with  the  Italian  Tax Authority,  thereby  significantly  reducing 
relations with the parent company. Hence the reduction in intercompany VAT receivables and payables.

At December 31, 2022, Taxes payable-indirect tax consisted of VAT payable due in the U.K..

Other debt and taxes payable are all due within one year and their carrying amount is deemed to approximate their fair 
value.

26. Guarantees, commitments and contingent liabilities 

Guarantees issued

At  December  31,  2022,  Guarantees  issued  totaled  €3,845,048  thousand,  decreasing  by  €168,835  thousand  over 
December  31,  2021,  considering  only  the  guarantees  issued  in  favour  of  third  parties  and  in  the  interest  of  Group 
companies that belonged to the CNH Industrial Group after the demerger.

Support Agreement in the interest of CNH Industrial Capital LLC (Financial Services)

CNH Industrial Capital LLC benefits from a support agreement issued by CNH Industrial N.V., pursuant to which CNH 
Industrial N.V. agrees to, among other things, (a) make cash capital contributions to CNH Industrial Capital LLC, to the 
extent  necessary  to  cause  its  ratio  of  net  earnings  available  for  fixed  charges  to  fixed  charges  to  be  not  less  than

voting shares or (ii) re-allocation of amounts to credit or debit the special capital reserve against or in favour 
of the share premium reserve. 

2. The Company shall maintain a separate dividend reserve for the special voting shares. The special voting 
shares  shall  not  carry  any  entitlement  to  any  other  reserve  of  the  Company.  Any  distribution  out  of  the 
special  voting  shares  dividend  reserve  or  the  partial  or  full  release  of  such  reserve  will  require  a  prior 
proposal  from  the  Board  of  Directors  and  a  subsequent  resolution  of  the  general  meeting  of  holders  of 
special voting shares. 

3. From the profits, shown in the annual accounts, as adopted, such amounts shall be reserved as the Board 

of Directors may determine. 

4. The  profits  remaining  thereafter  shall  first  be  applied  to  allocate  and  add  to  the  special  voting  shares 
dividend reserve an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the aggregate nominal amount of all outstanding 
special voting shares. The calculation of the amount to be allocated and added to the special voting shares 
dividend  reserve  shall  occur  on  a  time-proportionate  basis.  If  special  voting  shares  are  issued  during  the 
financial year to which the allocation and addition pertains, then the amount to be allocated and added to 
the special voting shares dividend reserve in respect of these newly issued special voting shares shall be 
calculated  as  from  the  date  on  which  such  special  voting  shares  were  issued  until  the  last  day  of  the 
financial year concerned. The special voting shares shall not carry any other entitlement to the profits. 

5. Any  profits  remaining  thereafter  shall  be  at  the  disposal  of  the  general  meeting  of  shareholders  for 
distribution of dividend on the common shares only, subject to the provision of paragraph 8 of this article. 

6. Subject to a prior proposal of the Board of Directors, the general meeting of shareholders may declare and 
pay dividends in U.S. dollars. Furthermore, subject to the approval of the general meeting of shareholders 
and  the  Board  of  Directors  having  been  designated  as  the  body  competent  to  pass  a  resolution  for  the 
issuance  of  shares  in  accordance  with Article  5  of  the Articles  of Association,  the  Board  of  Directors  may 
decide that a distribution shall be made in the form of shares or that shareholders shall be given the option 
to receive a distribution either in cash or in the form of shares. 

7. The  Company  shall  only  have  power  to  make  distributions  to  shareholders  and  other  persons  entitled  to 
distributable profits to the extent the Company's equity exceeds the sum of the paid-up portion of the share 
capital  and  the  reserves  that  must  be  maintained  in  accordance  with  provision  of  law.  No  distribution  of 
profits may be made to the Company itself for shares that the Company holds in its own share capital. 

8. The  distribution  of  profits  shall  be  made  after  the  adoption  of  the  annual  accounts,  from  which  it  appears 

that the same is permitted. 

9. The  Board  of  Directors  shall  have  power  to  declare  one  or  more  interim  dividends,  provided  that  the 
requirements of paragraph 5 hereof are duly observed as evidenced by an interim statement of assets and 
liabilities  as  referred  to  in Article  2:105  paragraph  4  of  the  Dutch  Civil  Code  and  provided  further  that  the 

Other Information    256

policy  of  the  Company  on  additions  to  reserves  and  dividends  is  duly  observed.  The  provisions  of 
paragraphs 2 and 3 hereof shall apply mutatis mutandis. 

10. The  Board  of  Directors  may  determine  that  dividends  or  interim  dividends,  as  the  case  may  be,  shall  be 
paid, in whole or in part, from the Company's share premium reserve or from any other reserve, provided 
that payments from reserves may only be made to the shareholders that are entitled to the relevant reserve 
upon the dissolution of the Company. 

11. Dividends and other distributions of profit shall be made payable in the manner and at such date(s) - within 
four  weeks  after  declaration  thereof  -  and  notice  thereof  shall  be  given,  as  the  general  meeting  of 
shareholders, or in the case of interim dividends, the Board of Directors shall determine, provided, however, 
that  the  Board  of  Directors  shall  have  the  right  to  determine  that  each  payment  of  annual  dividends  in 
respect of shares be deferred for a period not exceeding five consecutive annual periods. 

12. Dividends and other distributions of profit, which have not been collected within five years and one day after 

the same have become payable, shall become the property of the Company.

Basis for our opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Dutch law, including the Dutch Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities 
under those standards are further described in the Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section 
of our report.

We are independent of CNH Industrial N.V. in accordance with the EU Regulation on specific requirements regarding 
statutory audit of public-interest entities, the “Wet toezicht accountantsorganisaties” (Wta, Audit firms supervision act), 
the  “Verordening  inzake  de  onafhankelijkheid  van  accountants  bij  assurance-opdrachten”  (ViO,  Code  of  Ethics  for 
Professional Accountants, a regulation with respect to independence) and other relevant independence regulations in 
“Verordening  gedrags-  en  beroepsregels 
the  Netherlands.  Furthermore,  we  have  complied  with 
accountants” (VGBA, Dutch Code of Ethics).

the 

We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Information in support of our opinion
We designed our audit procedures in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole and in forming our 
opinion  thereon. The  following  information  in  support  of  our  opinion  and  any  findings  were  addressed  in  this  context, 
and we do not provide a separate opinion or conclusion on these matters.

Our understanding of the business

CNH  Industrial  is  a  company  in  the  capital  goods  sector  that,  through  its  various  businesses,  designs,  produces  and 
sells agricultural and construction equipment. CNH Industrial also offers financial products and services. The group is 
structured  in  segments  and  components  and  we  tailored  our  group  audit  approach  accordingly.  We  paid  specific 
attention  in  our  audit  to  a  number  of  areas  driven  by  the  operations  of  the  group  and  our  risk  assessment.  Effective 
January 1, 2022, the Iveco Group business segments (trucks, commercial vehicles, buses, specialty vehicles as well as 

Independent auditor's report    262

power  train  applications)  separated  from  CNH  Industrial  and  Iveco  Group  N.V.  became  a  public  listed  company 
independent from CNH Industrial N.V. which directly impacted our scoping and procedures.

Materiality

We determined materiality and identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 
whether due to fraud or error in order to design audit procedures responsive to those risks and to obtain audit evidence 
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Materiality

Benchmark applied

Explanation

$140 million (or €131 million) (2021: $100 million or €88 million)

Approximately 5% of adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) (2021: 
approximately 5% of adjusted EBIT)

Materiality is based on adjusted EBIT, as we consider an earnings-based measure 
to be an appropriate basis for determining our overall materiality. The users of the 
financial  statements  of  profit-oriented  entities  tend  to  focus  on  EBIT.  We  believe 
that  EBIT  is  an  important  metric  for  the  financial  performance  of  the  company. 
Adjustments  are  made  to  EBIT  for  elements  which  are  not  directly  related  to  the 
operational performance of the company (restructuring costs, goodwill impairment 
loss  and  other  discrete  items  as  disclosed  in  the  paragraph  Industrial  Activities 
performance,  as  part  of  the  operating  and  financial  review  and  prospects  in  the 
annual report. 

Whilst we considered alternative benchmarks to adjusted EBIT, we believe that a 
adjusted EBIT is appropriate benchmark for determining materiality.

We have also taken into account misstatements and/or possible misstatements that in our opinion are material for the 
users of the financial statements for qualitative reasons.

We agreed with audit committee that misstatements in excess of $7 million (or €6,55 million), which are identified during 
the audit, would be reported to them, as well as smaller misstatements that in our view must be reported on qualitative 
grounds.

Scope of the group audit

CNH  Industrial  N.V.  is  the  parent  of  a  group  of  entities  (collectively  referred  to  as  ‘the  Group’).  The  consolidated 
financial  statements  of  the  Group  as  at  December  31,  2022,  include  CNH  Industrial  N.V.  and  128  consolidated 
subsidiaries.  The  Group  is  organized  in  three  reportable  segments,  being  Agriculture,  Construction  and  Financial 
Services,  along  with  certain  other  corporate  functions  which  are  not  included  in  the  reportable  segments. The  Group 
organizes its operations into 156 components in the consolidation and reporting system.

Because we are ultimately responsible for the opinion, we are also responsible for directing, supervising and performing 
the group audit. In this respect we have determined the nature and extent of the audit procedures to be carried out for 
group  entities.  Decisive  were  the  size  and/or  the  risk  profile  of  the  group  entities  or  operations.  On  this  basis,  we 
selected group entities for which an audit or review had to be carried out on the complete set of financial information or 
specific items.  

Accordingly, we identified 8 of CNH Industrial N.V.’s components, which, in our view, required an audit of their complete 
financial  information.  Specific  audit  procedures  on  certain  balances  and  transactions  were  performed  on  a  further  13 
components.  Group  wide  control  procedures  were  performed  on  a  further  111  components.  The  remaining  24 
components which are not included in our group scope have been subject to risk based analytic procedures.

In establishing the overall approach to the audit, we determined the type of work that is needed to be done by us, as 
group  auditors,  or  by  component  auditors  from  Ernst  &  Young  Global  member  firms  and  operating  under  our 
instructions. The group audit team audited the group consolidation, financial statements and disclosures and the audit 
procedures  related  to  the  key  audit  matter  ‘Valuation  of  the  acquired  intangible  assets  of  Raven  Industries,  Inc'.  We 
combined  remote  working  with  a  site  visit  approach  and  as  a  result  were  able  to  visit  management  and  component 
auditors in Italy. For all entities in scope, we shared detailed instructions to the component auditors and we reviewed 
their deliverables.

In total full and specific scope procedures covered approximately 85% of the group’s revenues and 92% of total assets.

Independent auditor's report    263

By  performing  the  procedures  mentioned  above  at  components  of  the  group,  together  with  additional  procedures  at 
group  level,  we  have  been  able  to  obtain  sufficient  and  appropriate  audit  evidence  about  the  group’s  financial 
information to provide an opinion about the consolidated financial statements. 
Teaming and use of specialists

We  ensured  that  the  audit  teams  both  at  group  and  at  component  levels  included  the  appropriate  skills  and 
competences which are needed for the audit of a listed client in the automotive industry. We included specialists in the 
areas of IT audit, valuation, pensions and income tax.

Our focus on climate related risks and the energy transition

Climate  change  and  the  energy  transition  are  high  on  the  public  agenda  in  the  next  decades.  Issues  such  as  CO2 
reduction  impact  financial  reporting,  as  these  issues  entail  risks  for  the  business  operation,  the  valuation  of  assets 
('stranded  assets')  and  provisions  or  the  sustainability  of  the  business  model  and  access  to  financial  markets  of 
companies with a larger CO2 footprint. 

As part of our audit of the financial statements, we evaluated the extent to which climate-related risks and the effects of 
the energy transition are taken into account in estimates and significant assumptions as well as in the design of relevant 
internal control measures by CNH Industrial N.V. 

As  disclosed  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  under  the  significant  accounting  policies  and  climate  related 
matters, all significant assumptions and estimates underlying the preparation of the following items were subject to an 
analysis  in  order  to  identify  and  address  the  new  uncertainties  related  to  climate  changes  which  could  affect  the 
business:  going  concern,  inventory  management,  property,  plant  and  equipment,  goodwill,  brands,  intangible  assets 
with  a  finite  life,  tax  reliefs,  revenue  recognition,  provisions  and  onerous  contracts.  Furthermore,  we  read  the  board 
report  and  considered  whether  there  is  any  material  inconsistency  between  the  non-financial  disclosure  and  the 
financial statements.

Based  on  the  audit  procedures  performed,  we  do  not  deem  climate-related  risks  to  have  a  material  impact  on  the 
financial reporting judgements, estimates or significant assumptions as at December 31, 2022.

Our focus on fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations

Our responsibility
Although  we  are  not  responsible  for  preventing  fraud  or  non-compliance  and  we  cannot  be  expected  to  detect  non-
compliance  with  all  laws  and  regulations,  it  is  our  responsibility  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  that  the  financial 
statements, taken as a whole, are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error.

The  risk  of  non  detecting  a  material  misstatement  resulting  from  fraud  is  higher  than  for  one  resulting  from  error,  as 
fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

Our audit response related to fraud risks

Independent auditor's report    264

We identify and assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements due to fraud. During our audit we 
obtained an understanding of the CNH Industrial N.V. and its environment and the components of the system of internal 
control,  including  the  risk  assessment  process  and  management’s  process  for  responding  to  the  risks  of  fraud  and 
monitoring the system of internal control and how audit committee exercises oversight, as well as the outcomes. 

We  refer  to  the  paragraph  Risk  Management  and  Control  System  of  the  board  report  for  management’s  fraud  risk 
assessment.

We  evaluated  the  design  and  relevant  aspects  of  the  system  of  internal  control  and  in  particular  the  fraud  risk 
assessment,  as  well  as  the  code  of  conduct,  whistle  blower  procedures  and  incident  registration.  We  evaluated  the 
design  and  the  implementation  and,  where  considered  appropriate,  tested  the  operating  effectiveness,  of  internal 
controls designed to mitigate fraud risks. 

As part of our process of identifying fraud risks, we evaluated fraud risk factors with respect to financial reporting fraud, 
misappropriation  of  assets  and  bribery  and  corruption.  We  evaluated  whether  these  factors  indicate  that  a  risk  of 
material misstatement due fraud is present.

We  incorporated  elements  of  unpredictability  in  our  audit.  We  also  considered  the  outcome  of  our  other  audit 
procedures and evaluated whether any findings were indicative of fraud or non-compliance.

As  in  all  of  our  audits,  we  addressed  the  risks  related  to  management  override  of  controls.  For  these  risks  we  have 
performed procedures among others to evaluate key accounting estimates for management bias that may represent a 
risk of material misstatement due to fraud, in particular relating to important judgement areas and significant accounting 
estimates, including those related to acquisition of Raven Industries Inc We have also used data analysis to identify and 
address high-risk journal entries and evaluated the business rationale (or the lack thereof) of significant extraordinary 
transactions, including those with related parties.

When identifying and assessing fraud risks we presumed that there are risks of fraud in revenue recognition.

These risks did however not require significant auditor's attention.

We identified the following fraud risk and performed the following specific procedures:

Presumed risks of fraud in revenue recognition: 

Fraud risk

When  identifying  and  assessing  fraud  risks  we  presume  that  there  are  risks  of  fraud  in 
revenue recognition. We evaluated the revenues streams coming from the various segments: 
Agriculture,  Construction  and  Financial  Services.  Our  risk  is  mainly  focusing  on  revenues 
which are recognized in the improper period as a result of manual journal entries recorded in 
corporate and/or consolidating entities at or near period end.  

These revenues streams are disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements. 

Our audit approach We designed and performed the following audit procedures to be responsive to this fraud risk: 
• We  have  performed  risk  assessment  procedures  as  part  of  our  audit  planning  and 

include the corporate and/or consolidating entities in our audit scope.
• We have made inquiries of management and performed tests of control.
• We  have  performed  analytical  review  and  performed  tests  of  detail  as  to  revenue 

recorded in corporate and/or consolidating entities at or near period end.

• We  have  performed  tests  of  journal  entries  recorded  in  the  corporate  and/or 
consolidating  entities  and  ensure  appropriate  business  rationale,  and  proper 
authorization and documentation of approval.

Finally, we reviewed the adequacy of the disclosures made in Note 1.

We  considered  available  information  and  made  enquiries  of  relevant  executives,  directors  (including  tax,  treasury, 
internal  audit,  legal,  compliance,  human  resources  and  segment/regional  management  and  finance  leaders)  and  the 
audit committee.

The  fraud  risk  we  identified,  enquiries  and  other  available  information  did  not  lead  to  specific  indications  for  fraud  or 
suspected fraud potentially materially impacting the view of the financial statements.

Independent auditor's report    265

Our audit response related to risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations
We performed appropriate audit procedures regarding compliance with the provisions of those laws and regulations that 
have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Furthermore,  we  assessed  factors  related  to  the  risks  of  non-compliance  with  laws  and  regulations  that  could 
reasonably  be  expected  to  have  a  material  effect  on  the  financial  statements  from  our  general  industry  experience, 
through  discussions  with  the  board  of  directors,  reading  minutes,  inspection  of  internal  audit  and  compliance  reports 
and performing substantive tests of details of classes of transactions, account balances or disclosures and reference is 
made  to  Notes  23  Other  provisions  and  26  Guarantees,  commitments  and  contingent  liabilities  to  the  financial 
statements.

We also inspected lawyers’ letters and correspondence with regulatory authorities and remained alert to any indication 
of (suspected) non-compliance throughout the audit. Finally, we obtained written representations from management that 
all known instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations have been disclosed to us. 

The fraud risk we identified, enquires and other available information did not lead to specific indications for fraud or 
suspected fraud potentially materially impacting the view of the financial statements.

Our audit response related to going concern

As  disclosed  in  section  'Basis  of  preparation'  in  the  Notes  to  the  financial  statements,  the  financial  statements  have 
been  prepared  on  a  going  concern  basis.When  preparing  the  financial  statements,  management  made  a  specific 
assessment of the company's ability to continue as a going concern and to continue its operations for the foreseeable 
future. 

We  discussed  and  evaluated  the  specific  assessment  with  management  exercising  professional  judgment  and 
maintaining professional skepticism.

We  considered  whether  management's  going  concern  assessment,  based  on  our  knowledge  and  understanding 
obtained through our audit of the financial statements or otherwise, contains all relevant events or conditions that may 
cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Based on our procedures performed, we did not identify material uncertainties about going concern. If we conclude that 
a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the 
financial  statements  or,  if  such  disclosures  are  inadequate,  to  modify  our  opinion.  Our  conclusions  are  based  on  the 
audit  evidence  obtained  up  to  the  date  of  our  auditor’s  report.  However,  future  events  or  conditions  may  cause  CNH 
Industrial N.V. to cease to continue as a going concern.

Our key audit matter
Key  audit  matters  are  those  matters  that,  in  our  professional  judgment,  were  of  most  significance  in  our  audit  of  the 
financial  statements.  We  have  communicated  the  key  audit  matter  to  audit  committee.  The  key  audit  matter  is  not  a 
comprehensive reflection of all matters discussed. 

The key audit matter ‘The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic’ which was included in our last year’s auditor’s report, is not 
considered a key audit matter for this year as the increased profitability of the Brazilian operations of the company has 
significantly reduced the recoverability risk of the deferred tax assets. We added this year a key audit matter in relation 
to  the  acquisition  of  Raven  Industries,  Inc. Although  this  entity  was  acquired  at  the  end  of  2021,  the  purchase  price 
allocation was completed in 2022.

Independent auditor's report    266

Valuation of the acquired intangible assets of Raven Industries, Inc.

Note 12
Risk

Our audit 
approach

As described in Note 12, to the consolidated financial statements the Company completed its 
acquisition of Raven Industries, Inc. ("Raven") on November 30, 2021 for a total purchase 
consideration of $2,140 million. In 2022, the Company finalized the purchase price allocation 
of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on 
their fair values .Goodwill ($1.3bn) was calculated as the excess of the consideration 
transferred over the net assets acquired. 

Auditing the Company’s accounting of the acquired intangible assets of Raven was complex 
due to the significant estimation uncertainty in determining the fair value of identified intangible 
assets of approximately $523 million, which primarily consisted of customer relationships, in-
process research and development (“IPR&D”), and trade names. The significant estimation 
uncertainty was primarily due to the sensitivity of the respective fair values to the significant 
underlying assumptions related to the future performance of the acquired business. The 
Company used the income approach to measure these intangible assets. The significant 
assumptions used to estimate the value of the intangible assets included customer attrition 
rates, royalty rates, discount rates, and certain assumptions that form the basis of the 
forecasted results (e.g., long-term revenue growth rates and revenue attributable to existing 
customers). These significant assumptions are forward looking and could be affected by future 
economic and market conditions. Therefore, we considered the valuation of the acquired 
intangible assets of Raven Industries a Key Audit matter. 

We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness 
of the Company's controls over accounting for the acquisition of Raven, including controls over 
the determination of the fair value of the acquired customer relationships, IPR&D, and trade 
names intangible assets, and management's evaluation of the underlying assumptions 
described above. We also tested management's controls over the completeness and accuracy 
of the data used in the valuation models. 
To test the fair value of the customer relationships, IPR&D, and trade names intangible assets, 
we performed audit procedures that included, among others, assessing the appropriateness of 
the valuation methodologies used and testing the significant assumptions used in the 
valuation model, including the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data. We 
compared the significant assumptions to current industry, market and economic trends and to 
the historical results of the acquired business and involved valuation specialists to assist with 
our evaluation of the methodologies used by the Company and significant assumptions 
included in the fair value estimates.

The Group’s disclosures related to Valuation of the acquired intangible assets of Raven 
Industries, Inc is included in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements. We have 
assessed the adequacy of the disclosures made by the Company in respect of valuation of the 
acquired intangible assets.

Key observations  We concur with the valuation of the acquired intangible assets of Raven Industries, Inc as 

recorded in the statement of financial position and deem the disclosures included in the 
consolidated financial statements appropriate.

Independent auditor's report    267

Report on other information included in the annual report
The annual report contains other information in addition to the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, the 
annual report contains other information that consists of:

• The management board report 
• The remuneration report
• Other information as required by Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code.

Based on the following procedures performed, we conclude that the other information:

Is consistent with the financial statements and does not contain material misstatements

•
• Contains the information as required by Part 9 of Book 2 for the board report and the other information as required 
by Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code and as required by Sections 2:135b and 2:145 sub-section 2 of the 
Dutch Civil Code for the remuneration report.

We have read the other information. Based on our knowledge and understanding obtained through our audit of the 
financial statements or otherwise, we have considered whether the other information contains material misstatements.

Engagement

We were engaged by the general meeting as auditor of CNH Industrial N.V. on September 9, 2013 to perform the audit 
of the 2013 financial statements and have continued as the statutory auditor since then.

requirements regarding statutory audit of public-interest entities.

European Single Electronic Reporting Format (ESEF)

Regulation (EU) 2019/815 with regard to regulatory technical standards on the specification of a single electronic 
reporting format (hereinafter: the RTS on ESEF).

In our opinion, the annual report, prepared in the XHTML format, including the partially marked-up consolidated 
financial statements, as included in the reporting package by CNH Industrial N.V., complies in all material respects with 
the RTS on ESEF.

Management is responsible for preparing the annual report, including the financial statements, in accordance with the 
RTS on ESEF, whereby management combines the various components into a single reporting package.

Our responsibility is to obtain reasonable assurance for our opinion whether the annual report in this reporting package 
complies with the RTS on ESEF.

We performed our examination in accordance with Dutch law, including Dutch Standard 3950N'Assurance-opdrachten 
inazke het voldoen aan de criteria voor het opstellen van een digitaal verantwoordingsdocument' (assurance 
engagements relating to compliance with criteria for digital reporting). Our examination included amongst others:

Description of responsibilities regarding the financial 
statements
Responsibilities of management and the audit committee for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with EU-
IFRS and Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code. Furthermore, management is responsible for such internal control 
as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

As part of the preparation of the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the company’s ability to 
continue as a going concern. Based on the financial reporting framework mentioned, management should prepare the 
financial statements using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the 
company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Management should disclose events and 
circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the financial 
statements. 

The audit committee is responsible for overseeing the company’s financial reporting process.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objective is to plan and perform the audit engagement in a manner that allows us to obtain sufficient and 
appropriate audit evidence for our opinion.

Our audit has been performed with a high, but not absolute, level of assurance, which means we may not detect all 
material errors and fraud during our audit.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could 
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 
The materiality affects the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and the evaluation of the effect of identified 
misstatements on our opinion.

We have exercised professional judgment and have maintained professional skepticism throughout the audit, in 
accordance with Dutch Standards on Auditing, ethical requirements and independence requirements. The ‘Information 
in support of our opinion’ section above includes an informative summary of our responsibilities and the work performed 
as the basis for our opinion.
Our audit further included among others:

• Performing audit procedures responsive to the risks identified, and obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and 

appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion

• Obtaining an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are 
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the 
CNH Industrial N.V.’s internal control

• Evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and 

related disclosures made by management

• Evaluating the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures
• Evaluating whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that 

achieves fair presentation.

Communication

We communicate with the audit committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit 
and significant audit findings, including any significant findings in internal control that we identify during our audit. In this 
respect we also submit an additional report to the audit committee in accordance with Article 11 of the EU Regulation on 
specific requirements regarding statutory audit of public-interest entities. The information included in this additional 
report is consistent with our audit opinion in this auditor’s report.

We provide the audit committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding 
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to 
bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the audit committee, we determine the key audit matters: those matters that were 
of most significance in the audit of the financial statements. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless 
law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, not 
communicating the matter is in the public interest.
