Condensed Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)  Organization and Consolidation

Deere & Company has been developing innovative solutions to help its customers become more profitable for more than 185 years. References to Deere & Company, John Deere, Deere, or the Company include its consolidated subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). The Company is managed through the following operating segments: production and precision agriculture (PPA), small agriculture and turf (SAT), construction and forestry (CF), and financial services (FS). References to “equipment operations” include production and precision agriculture, small agriculture and turf, and construction and forestry, while references to “agriculture and turf” include both production and precision agriculture and small agriculture and turf.

The Company uses a 52/53 week fiscal year with quarters ending on the last Sunday in the reporting period. The third quarter ends for fiscal year 2023 and 2022 were July 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively. Both third quarters contained 13 weeks, while both year-to-date periods contained 39 weeks. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years, quarters, or months refer to the Company’s fiscal years generally ending in October and the associated periods in those fiscal years.

​

(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards

Quarterly Financial Statements

The interim consolidated financial statements of Deere & Company have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. All normal recurring adjustments have been included. Management believes the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. It is suggested these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the fiscal year.

Use of Estimates in Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Standards

The Company closely monitors all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other authoritative guidance. ASUs adopted in 2023 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. ASUs to be adopted in future periods are being evaluated and at this point are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company invoices in advance of recognizing the sale of certain products and the revenue for certain services. These relate to extended warranty premiums, advance payments for future equipment sales, and subscription and service revenue related to precision guidance and telematic services. These advanced customer payments are presented as deferred revenue, a contract liability, in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets. The deferred revenue received, but not recognized in revenue, including extended warranty premiums also shown in Note 16, was $1,753 million, $1,423 million, and $1,424 million at July 30, 2023, October 30, 2022, and July 31, 2022, respectively. The contract liability is reduced as the revenue is recognized. During the three months ended July 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, $96 million and $93 million, respectively, of revenue was recognized from deferred revenue that was recorded as a contract liability at the beginning of the respective fiscal year. During the nine months ended July 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, $440 million and $488 million, respectively, of revenue was recognized from deferred revenue that was recorded as a contract liability at the beginning of the respective fiscal year.

The amount of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original duration greater than one year was $1,437 million at July 30, 2023. The estimated revenue to be recognized by fiscal year follows in millions of dollars: remainder of 2023 - $139, 2024 - $403, 2025 - $337, 2026 - $228, 2027 - $136, 2028 - $86 and later years - $108. As permitted, the Company elected only to disclose remaining performance obligations with an original contract duration greater than one year. The contracts with an expected duration of one year or less are for sales of equipment, service parts, repair services, and certain telematics services.

(6)  Pension and Other Postretirement Employee Benefits

The Company has several defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement employee benefit (OPEB) plans, primarily health care and life insurance plans, covering its U.S. employees and employees in certain foreign countries. The components of net periodic pension and OPEB (benefit) cost consisted of the following in millions of dollars:

Net cost	​	$	6	​	$	3	​	$	18	​	$	9	​

​

The reduction in the 2023 pension net cost is due to increases in the expected long-term return rates on plan assets and increases in discount rates. The components of net periodic pension and OPEB (benefit) cost excluding the service cost component are included in the line item “Other operating expenses” in the statements of consolidated income.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Canada pension plan paid a premium to an insurance company to irrevocably transfer the benefit obligations and administration for the majority of its retired participants. The transaction did not impact the benefits to be received by the retired participants. In connection with the transaction, the Company recognized a one-time, non-cash, pre-tax pension settlement charge of $36 million in the second quarter of 2023 related to the accelerated recognition of actuarial losses included within “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” in the statements of changes in consolidated stockholders’ equity.

Operating profit for production and precision ag, small ag and turf, and construction and forestry is income from continuing operations before reconciling items and income taxes. Operating profit for financial services includes the effect of interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses. Reconciling items to net income are primarily corporate expenses, certain interest income and expenses, certain foreign exchange gains and losses, pension and OPEB benefit amounts excluding the service cost component, equity in income of unconsolidated affiliates, and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.

(8)  Financing Receivables

The Company monitors the credit quality of financing receivables based on delinquency status. Past due balances of financing receivables still accruing finance income represent the total balance held (principal plus accrued interest) with any payment amounts 30 days or more past the contractual payment due date. Non-performing financing receivables represent receivables for which the Company has ceased accruing finance income. The Company ceases accruing finance income when these receivables are generally 90 days delinquent. Generally, when receivables are 120 days delinquent the estimated uncollectible amount from the customer is written off to the allowance for credit losses. Finance income for non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrual of finance income is generally resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collection is reasonably assured.

The credit quality analysis of retail notes, financing leases, and revolving charge accounts (collectively, retail customer receivables) by year of origination was as follows in millions of dollars:

​

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company determined that the financial services business in Russia met the held for sale criteria. The financing receivables in Russia were reclassified to “Other assets” and the associated allowance for credit losses was reversed in the first quarter of 2023. These operations were sold in the second quarter of 2023 (see Note 20).

​

The allowance for credit losses decreased slightly in the third quarter of 2023 as strong fundamentals within the agriculture market continued to benefit the portfolio. Excluding the portfolio in Russia, the allowance for the first nine months of 2023 increased slightly as higher portfolio balances and higher expected losses on turf and construction customer accounts offset the favorable benefits in the agricultural customer accounts. The Company continues to monitor the economy as part of the allowance setting process, including potential impacts of inflation and interest rates, among other factors, and qualitative adjustments to the allowance are incorporated as necessary.

(9)  Securitization of Financing Receivables

As a part of its overall funding strategy, the Company periodically transfers certain financing receivables (retail notes) into VIEs that are special purpose entities (SPEs), or non-VIE banking operations, as part of its asset-backed securities programs (securitizations). The structure of these transactions is such that the transfer of the retail notes does not meet the accounting criteria for sales of receivables, and is, therefore, accounted for as a secured borrowing. SPEs utilized in securitizations of retail notes differ from other entities included in the Company’s consolidated statements because the assets they hold are legally isolated. Use of the assets held by the SPEs or the non-VIEs is restricted by terms of the documents governing the securitization transactions.

The components of consolidated restricted assets, secured borrowings, and other liabilities related to secured borrowings in securitization transactions were as follows in millions of dollars:

​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​
​		July 30			October 30			July 31
​	​	2023		​	2022		​	2022
Financing receivables securitized (retail notes)		$	7,019	​	$	5,952	​	$	5,156	​
Allowance for credit losses	​	​	(18)	​		(16)	​		(15)	​
Other assets (primarily restricted cash)	​	​	153	​		155	​		136	​
Total restricted securitized assets		$	7,154	​	$	6,091	​	$	5,277	​
​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​
Short-term securitization borrowings	​	$	6,608	​	$	5,711	​	$	4,920	​
Accrued interest on borrowings	​	​	15	​	​	6	​		4	​
Total liabilities related to restricted securitized assets	​	$	6,623	​	$	5,717	​	$	4,924	​

(10)  Inventories

A majority of inventory owned by Deere & Company and its U.S. equipment subsidiaries are valued at cost on the “last-in, first-out” (LIFO) basis. If all of the Company’s inventories had been valued on a “first-in, first-out” (FIFO) basis, estimated inventories by major classification in millions of dollars would have been as follows:

​

​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​
​		July 30			October 30			July 31
​	​	2023		​	2022		​	2022

(15)  Leases - Lessor

The Company leases equipment manufactured or sold by the Company and a limited amount of non-John Deere equipment to retail customers through sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases. Sales-type and direct financing leases are reported in Financing receivables – net on the consolidated balance sheets, while operating leases are reported in Equipment on operating leases – net.

Lease revenues earned by the Company were as follows in millions of dollars:

​

(16)  Commitments and Contingencies

The Company determines its total warranty liability by applying historical claims rate experience to the estimated amount of equipment that has been sold and is still under warranty based on dealer inventories and retail sales. The historical claims rate is determined by a review of five-year claims costs and current quality developments.

The premiums for extended warranties are recognized in other income in the statements of consolidated income in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred over the contract period. The unamortized extended warranty premiums (deferred revenue) included in the following table totaled $999 million and $839 million at July 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively.

A reconciliation of the changes in the warranty liability and unearned premiums was as follows in millions of dollars:

​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​
​	​	Three Months Ended					​	Nine Months Ended

​

At July 30, 2023, the Company had $201 million of guarantees issued to banks outside the U.S. and Canada related to third-party receivables for the retail financing of John Deere equipment. The Company may recover a portion of any required payments incurred under these agreements from repossession of the equipment collateralizing the receivables. At July 30, 2023, the accrued losses under these agreements were not material.

At July 30, 2023, the Company had commitments of $649 million for the construction and acquisition of property and equipment. Also, at July 30, 2023, the Company had restricted assets of $270 million, classified as Other assets.

The Company also had other miscellaneous contingent liabilities and guarantees totaling approximately $115 million at July 30, 2023. The accrued liability for these contingencies was not material at July 30, 2023.

The Company is subject to various unresolved legal actions which arise in the normal course of its business, the most prevalent of which relate to product liability (including asbestos-related liability), retail credit, employment, patent, trademark, and antitrust matters. The Company believes the reasonably possible range of losses for these unresolved legal actions would not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

​

(17)  Fair Value Measurements

The fair values of financial instruments that do not approximate the carrying values were as follows in millions of dollars. Long-term borrowings exclude finance lease liabilities.

​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​	​
​	​	July 30, 2023					​	October 30, 2022					​	July 31, 2022

​

Fair value measurements above were Level 3 for all financing receivables and Level 2 for all borrowings.

Fair values of the financing receivables that were issued long-term were based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by the Company for similar financing receivables. The fair values of the remaining financing receivables approximated the carrying amounts.

Fair values of long-term borrowings and short-term securitization borrowings were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk, or on the discounted values of their related cash flows at current market interest rates. Certain long-term borrowings have been swapped to current variable interest rates. The carrying values of these long-term borrowings included adjustments related to fair value hedges.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in millions of dollars follow. The Company’s cash equivalents, which consisted of money market funds and time deposits, are excluded as these assets were carried at cost that approximates fair value.

The contractual maturities of debt securities at July 30, 2023 in millions of dollars are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because some securities may be called or prepaid. Unrealized losses were not recognized in income due to the ability and intent to hold to maturity. Because of the potential for prepayment on mortgage-backed securities, they are not categorized by contractual maturity.

​

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure certain financial instruments on the balance sheet at fair value:

Marketable securities – The portfolio of investments is valued on a market approach (matrix pricing model) in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, credit risk, and prepayment speeds. Funds are valued using closing prices in the active market in which the investment trades.

Derivatives – The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate contracts (swaps), foreign currency exchange contracts (futures, forwards, and swaps), and cross-currency interest rate contracts (swaps). The portfolio is valued based on an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates for currencies.

Financing receivables – Specific reserve impairments are based on the fair value of the collateral, which is measured using a market approach (appraisal values or realizable values).

Inventories – The impairment was based on net realizable value.

Property and equipment - net – The valuations were based on cost and market approaches. The inputs include replacement cost estimates adjusted for physical deterioration and economic obsolescence.

Other intangible assets - net – The Company considered external valuations based on the Company’s probability weighted cash flow analysis.

(19)  Stock Option and Restricted Stock Unit Awards

In December 2022, the Company granted stock options to employees for the purchase of 161 thousand shares of common stock at an exercise price of $438.44 per share and a binomial lattice model fair value of $136.46 per share at the grant date. At July 30, 2023, options for 1.8 million shares were outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $187.53 per share. The Company also granted 125 thousand of service-based restricted stock units and 41 thousand of performance/service-based restricted stock units to employees in the first nine months of 2023. The weighted-average fair value of the service-based restricted stock units at the grant date was $428.49 per unit based on the market price of a share of underlying common stock. The fair value of the performance/service-based restricted stock units at the grant date was $424.93 per unit based on the market price of a share of underlying common stock excluding dividends. At July 30, 2023, the Company was authorized to grant awards for an additional 16.6 million shares under the equity incentive plans.

​

​

(20)  Disposition

​

On March 7, 2023, the Company sold its financial services business in Russia (registered in Russia as a leasing company) to Insight Investment Group. The total proceeds, net of restricted cash sold, were $36 million. The operations were included in the Company’s financial services operating segment through the date of sale. At the disposal date, the total assets were $31 million, consisting primarily of financing receivables, the total liabilities were $5 million, and the cumulative translation loss was $10 million. The Company did not incur additional gains or losses upon disposition. At January 29, 2023, the assets and liabilities were classified as “Other assets” and “Accounts payable and accrued expenses”, respectively, which included $100 million of restricted cash. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company reversed the allowance for credit losses and recorded a valuation allowance on the assets held for sale in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.”

(21)  S****pecial Items

​

2023

Brazil Tax Ruling

In the third quarter of 2023, the Brazil Superior Court of Justice published a favorable tax ruling regarding taxability of local incentives, which allowed the Company to record a $243 million reduction in the provision for income taxes and $47 million of interest income.

Financial Services Financing Incentives Correction

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company corrected the accounting treatment for financing incentives offered to John Deere dealers, which impacted the timing of expense recognition and the presentation of incentive costs in the consolidated financial statements. The cumulative effect of this correction, $173 million pretax ($135 million after-tax), was recorded in the second quarter of 2023. Prior period results for Deere & Company were not restated, as the adjustment is considered immaterial to the Company’s financial statements.

2022

Impact of Events in Russia / Ukraine

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company suspended shipments of machines and service parts to Russia. The suspension of shipments to Russia reduced actual and forecasted revenue for the region, which made it probable future cash flows will not cover the carrying value of certain assets. The accounting consequences in 2022 were impairments of most long-lived assets, an increase in reserves of certain financial assets, and an accrual for various contractual uncertainties. In addition, the Company initiated a voluntary separation program for employees in Russia in the third quarter of 2022.

Gain on Previously Held Equity Investment

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company acquired full ownership of three former Deere-Hitachi joint venture factories and began new license and supply agreements with Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. The fair value of the previous equity investment resulted in a non-cash gain of $326 million (pretax and after-tax).

UAW Collective Bargaining Agreement

In the first quarter of 2022, employees represented by the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW) approved a new collective bargaining agreement. The labor agreement included a lump sum ratification bonus payment of $8,500 per eligible employee, totaling $90 million, and an immediate wage increase of 10 percent plus further wage increases over the term of the contract. The lump sum payment was expensed in the first quarter of 2022.
