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

BOARD REPORT
PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND
CERTAIN OTHER INFORMATION
CNH Industrial N.V. (or “the Company”) is incorporated in, and under the laws of the Netherlands. CNH Industrial has its
corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its principal office in London, England, United Kingdom. CNH
Industrial N.V. is the company initially formed by the business combination transaction, completed on September 29,
2013, between Fiat Industrial S.p.A. ("Fiat Industrial") and its majority owned subsidiary CNH Global N.V. ("CNH
Global"). Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we", “us”, “our”, “CNH Industrial” and
"the Group" refer to CNH Industrial and its subsidiaries.
CNH Industrial reports quarterly and annual consolidated financial results in accordance with accounting standards
generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reporting
purposes, and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and adopted by the European Union ("EU-IFRS") for European listing purposes
and for Dutch law requirements. The reconciliation from EU-IFRS figures to U.S. GAAP is presented, on a voluntary
basis, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Financial statements under both sets of accounting principles use the U.S. dollar as the presentation currency.
We have prepared our annual Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Annual Report in accordance with
EU-IFRS and with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code. Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared with
the U.S. dollar as the presentation currency and, unless otherwise indicated, all financial data set forth in this Annual
Report are expressed in U.S. dollars.
Certain financial information in this report has been presented by geographic region. Our geographic regions are: (1)
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.
Board Report Our Commitment to Sustainable Development and Long-term Value Creation 13
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.
Board Report Our Commitment to Sustainable Development and Long-term Value Creation 16
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)

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.

n/a
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).

(1) The total recordable incident rate is the number of recordable work-related injuries and illnesses divided by the number of hours worked, multiplied by 200,000.
(2) The fatality rate is the number of work-related fatalities divided by the number of hours worked, multiplied by 200,000.
(3) The near miss frequency rate is the number of work-related near misses divided by the number of hours worked, multiplied by 200,000.
(4) Given the diversity of its products, the Company is currently identifying a methodology for the calculation of sales-weighted fuel efficiency and emissions data.
Presence in Sustainability Indices
Inclusion in sustainability indices, and the ratings received from specialized sector-specific agencies, further reflect the
robustness of CNH Industrial’s commitment to sustainability. In 2022, the Company was included for the 12th
consecutive year in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI) World and Europe, achieving the highest score
(87/100) within the Machinery and Electrical Equipment Industry. Furthermore, CNH Industrial was included in the A List
of the CDP Climate Change program, in recognition of its actions to tackle climate change. Moreover, in 2022, CNH
Industrial received an MSCI ESG Rating of AAA, was awarded ISS ESG Prime Status, and was a responder to the
2022 Workforce Disclosure Initiative (WDI).

Board Report Selected Financial Data 23
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.
Board Report Risk Factors 33
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.
Board Report Risk Factors 34
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,

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.
Board Report Business Overview 42
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.

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.

CNH Industrial’s expenditure on environmental protection measures totaled approximately $28 million in 2022 and
included: approximately $20 million on waste disposal and emissions treatment and almost $8 million on prevention and
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.
Board Report Business Overview 50
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 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.
(3) Elimination of Financial Services' interest income earned from Industrial Activities.
(4) Elimination of Industrial Activities' interest expense to 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.
Board Report Operating and Financial Review and Prospects 58
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.

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.

Net revenues for Agriculture were $17,969 million in 2022, up 21.8% compared to 2021 (up 25.5% on a constant
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%.

Net revenues for Construction were $3,572 million in 2022, a 15.9% increase compared to 2021 (up 18.4% on a
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%.

Financial Services reported net revenues of $1,982 million in 2022, up 19.1% compared to 2021 (up 21.4% on a
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).

Board Report Operating and Financial Review and Prospects 66
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..
Board Report Operating and Financial Review and Prospects 68
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.
Current ratings for the Group are as follows:

(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.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, our consolidated Debt was as detailed in the following table:

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).

(2) In the year ended December 31, 2022, this item also includes share buy-back transactions.
(3) In the year ended December 31, 2022, this item also includes the proceed of Raven Engineered Films Division for $350 million. In year ended December 31, 2021, this item also includes the cash out of
$2,246 million for the acquisition of the 100% interest in Raven Industries, Inc., and $86 million for the acquisition of the 90% interest in Sampierana S.p.A., as well as the charge of $8 million related to the
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
and 2021 is shown below:

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).

Commercial Paper Programs
With the purpose of further diversifying its funding structure, CNH Industrial has established various commercial paper
programs. CNH Industrial Capital LLC outstanding commercial paper totaled $299 million as of December 31, 2022 (no
outstanding at December 31, 2021).
Banco CNH Industrial S.A. outstanding commercial paper totaled $230 million as of December 31, 2022 ($90 million

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
Board Report Operating and Financial Review and Prospects 74
obligation. CNH Industrial provided guarantees on the debt or commitments of third parties and performance
guarantees on non-consolidated affiliates, totaling $19 million as of December 31, 2022.

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

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.

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

actions to take advantage of identified opportunities for improvement. On the recommendation of the Environmental,

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.

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.

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).

discussed, to convene a general meeting of shareholders.
General meetings of shareholders shall be held in Amsterdam or Haarlemmermeer (Schiphol Airport), and shall be
called by the Board of Directors, the Chairperson, the Senior Non-Executive Director or the Chief Executive Officer, in

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

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.

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

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

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.

Board Report Corporate Governance 92
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
is discussed in section “Internal Control System”; (iii) based on the current state of affairs, it is justified that the Group’s
and the Company’s financial reporting is prepared on a going concern basis. This is justified by the discussion in the
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and in the Notes to the Company Financial Statements; and (iv) the
Board Report states those material risks and uncertainties that are, in the Board of Director’s judgment, relevant to the
expectation of CNH Industrial’s continuity for the period of twelve months after the preparation of the Board Report.
Refer to section “Risk Factors”.

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.

Note: CAGR calculated based on 2022 fiscal year results or estimates vs. 2020 fiscal year results. Financial information for S&P 500 companies based on
information available in Bloomberg Professional Services as of February 14, 2023.
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.
Board Report Remuneration Report 99
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.

annual bonus and PSU awards, seek to align our NEO’s compensation with our commitment to drive results for all of our
stakeholders.

Compensation Policies and Practices
Our compensation framework is supported by various Company policies and practices that further support our
compensation philosophy and reflect our high corporate governance standards. Our policies also reflect the global nature
of our executive leadership team and are designed to align with local market norms where relevant.

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.

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

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.

Cash
Intended to replace Mr. Wine’s fully earned but unpaid annual cash incentive for
2020 performance
Paid to Mr. Wine in April 2021 and included in the bonus column of the
Summary Compensation Table for 2021
Intended to replace portions of Mr. Wine’s LTI awards granted in 2018, 2019
and 2020 for which he had contributed to the performance achievement of but
would not earn and weren’t covered by CNH Industrial’s 2021-2023 front-loaded
target LTI awards described below
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.

As a result of payments being staggered to align with the LTI awards Mr. Wine forfeited on joining CNH Industrial,
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.

(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.

(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.

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.

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” (“CAP”) by the Company and the total compensation as disclosed in the Summary
Compensation Table (“SCT”);

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.

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.

The following table alphabetically lists the measures we believe are most important in linking compensation actually paid
to company performance during 2022.

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.
The following table summarizes the fundamental purpose and features of the Chair’s compensation elements for 2022:

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.

Notes:
(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
for details of the payout and in the “CEO’s 2022 Company Bonus Plan Performance Factor Calculations:” shown in the next table.
(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.

(5) 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.

(1) We make adjustments to U.S. GAAP financial measures for purposes of our financial performance measures to ensure the results
properly reflect management contributions.
(2) Accident Frequency Rate has a declining goal value for maximum payout, so a value lower than target indicates that the achievement
level exceeded target.

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.

(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.

MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS
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.
Name of Beneficial Owner
Number of Common Shares Beneficially Owned
Percentage owned (d)
EXOR N.V. (a)
Harris Associates L.P. (b)
BlackRock, Inc.(c)
366,927,900
91,391,645
59,893,991
27.3 %
6.8 %
4.5 %
(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)
it derives profits from an enterprise directly which is carried on, in whole or in part, through a permanent
establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands, and to which permanent establishment
or permanent representative its CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special
voting shares are attributable; or
it derives profits pursuant to a co-entitlement to the net value of an enterprise which is managed in the
Netherlands, other than as a holder of securities, and to which enterprise its CNH Industrial common
shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares are attributable.
Gift and Inheritance Taxes
No Dutch gift or inheritance taxes will arise with respect to an acquisition or deemed acquisition of CNH Industrial
common shares and, if applicable, CNH Industrial special voting shares by way of a gift by, or upon the death of, a
holder of CNH Industrial common shares, and, if applicable, special voting shares, who is neither resident nor deemed
to be resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch gift tax or Dutch inheritance tax except if, in the event of a gift
whilst not being a resident nor being a deemed resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch gift tax or Dutch
inheritance tax, a holder of CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, a holder of CNH Industrial special voting
shares becomes a resident or a deemed resident in the Netherlands and dies within 180 days after the date of the gift.
For purposes of Dutch gift and inheritance taxes, a gift of CNH Industrial common shares and, if applicable, CNH
Industrial special voting shares made under a condition precedent is deemed to be made at the time the condition
precedent is satisfied.
Board Report Major Shareholders 139
Registration Taxes and Duties
No Dutch registration tax, transfer tax, stamp duty or any other similar documentary tax or duty, other than court fees, is
payable in the Netherlands in respect of or in connection with the execution and/or enforcement (including by legal
proceedings and including the enforcement of any foreign judgment in the courts of the Netherlands) of the documents
relating to the issue of CNH Industrial common shares and / or special voting shares or the performance by CNH
Industrial of its obligations under such documents, or the transfer of CNH Industrial common shares and / or special
voting shares.

CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 148
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
CNH Industrial N.V. (or the “Company”) is incorporated in, and under the laws of, the Netherlands. CNH Industrial N.V.
has its corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its principal office in London, England, United Kingdom. The
Company was formed on September 29, 2013, as a result of the business combination transaction between Fiat
Industrial S.p.A. (“Fiat Industrial”) and its majority owned subsidiary CNH Global N.V. (“CNH Global”). Unless otherwise
indicated or the context otherwise requires, the terms "CNH Industrial" and the "Group" refer to CNH Industrial and its
subsidiaries.
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.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
These Consolidated Financial Statements together with the notes thereto of CNH Industrial at December 31, 2022 were
authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on February 28, 2023 and have been prepared in accordance with the
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

(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.

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.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 155
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.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 160
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.

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
transactions with third parties.

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:

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”.

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.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 174
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

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:

CNH Industrial has discounted receivables and bills without recourse having due dates beyond December 31, 2022
amounting to $17 million which refer to trade receivables and other receivables. At December 31, 2021, the amount of
discounted receivables and bills without recourse with due dates beyond that date, was $192 million, of which, $178
million referred to trade receivables and other receivables and $14 million referred to receivables from financing
activities.

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.
Internal risk grade
IFRS 9 classification
Definition
Performing

Stage 1
Stage 2

Accounts are credit impaired and/or a legal
action has been initiated; payments generally
greater than 90 days past due
Basis for recognition of
expected credit loss provision
12 month expected credit losses
Lifetime expected credit losses
Lifetime expected credit losses
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.

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.

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
deposits spread across primary national and international financial institutions.

Assets and Liabilities held for sale decreased of $490 million and $125 million, respectively, compared to December 31,

context of Raven acquisition and in a residual way to the sale of a property of CNH Industrial Canada Ltd..

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
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 192
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 Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 196
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.

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.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 199
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.

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 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

▪ 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).
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 206
▪ 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.

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

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
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 209
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.

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:

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).
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 214
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.
Internal risk grade

action has been initiated; payments generally

Basis for recognition of expected
credit loss provision
12 month expected credit losses
Lifetime expected credit losses
Lifetime expected credit losses
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
capable of exercising control, joint control or significant influence over the Group.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 220
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.
These transactions with Stellantis are reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements as follows:

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
connection with CNH Industrial's accelerated debt redemption strategy.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 222
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).
Changes in 2022 and 2021 are summarized as follows:

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.
CNH Industrial Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 224
(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.
35. Subsequent events
CNH Industrial has evaluated subsequent events through February 28, 2023, which is the date the financial statements
were authorized for issuance, and determined that there were no such events requiring recognition or disclosure in the
financial statements.

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

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

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.

(€10,394 thousand in 2021).

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.
Other current assets are entirely due within one year.

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
share par value of €0.01. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s share capital was €18 million (equivalent to
$25 million), fully paid-in, and consisted of 1,364,400,196 common shares (1,344,240,971 common shares outstanding,
net of 20,159,225 common shares held in treasury by the Company as described in the following section) and
396,474,276 special voting shares (371,072,953 special voting shares outstanding, net of 25,401,323 special voting
shares held in treasury by the Company as described in the section below).

Effects of the Demerger on the share capital of CNH Industrial N.V.

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

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.
Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 243
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.

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.

Assumed discount rates have a significant effect on the amount recognized in the 2022 financial statements. A one

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

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.

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

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).
Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 252
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
At December 31, 2022, other debt totaled €97,546 thousand, a net decrease of €71,298 thousand over December 31,
2021, and included the following:

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.
Company Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 253
At December 31, 2021, total Guarantees issued, including those issued in the interest of the Companies that were
demerged on January 1, 2022, totaled €4,174,336 thousand.
The guarantees were made up as follows:

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
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.
A Support Agreement was issued in 2019 in the interest of CNH Industrial Capital Australia Pty. Limited, the content of
which is in line with the support agreement issued in the interest of CNH Industrial Capital LLC.

OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Auditor’s Report
The report of the Company’s independent auditor, Ernst & Young Accountants LLP, The Netherlands is set forth
following this Annual Report.
Appropriation of the result of the year
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.
Dividends under Articles of Association provisions
Dividends will be determined in accordance with the articles 22 of the Articles of Association of CNH Industrial N.V. The
relevant provisions of the Articles of Association read as follows:
1. The Company shall 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 shall not carry any entitlement to the balance of the special capital reserve. The Board of Directors
shall be 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 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.

•
The accompanying consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of CNH
Industrial N.V. as at December 31, 2022, and of its result and its cash flows for 2022 in accordance with

•
•
The company statement of financial position as at December 31, 2022
The company income statement for 2022

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

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.
Independent auditor's report 269
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.
