NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Registrant,” “IFF,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a leading creator and manufacturer of products for application in food, beverage, health & biosciences, scent (and pharmaceuticals, until the sale of our Pharma Solutions disposal group in May 2025), as well as complementary adjacent products, all of which are used in a wide variety of consumer and end-use products. Our products are sold principally to manufacturers of dairy, meat, beverages, snacks, savory, sweet, baked goods, grain processors and other foods, personal care products, soaps and detergents, cleaning products, perfumes, dietary supplements, food protection, infant, elderly and animal nutrition, functional food, biofuel, pharmaceutical and oral care products. As a result, we hold global leadership positions in the Food & Beverage, Home & Personal Care and Health & Wellness markets, and across key Tastes, Textures, Scents, Nutrition, Enzymes, Cultures, Soy Proteins, and Probiotics categories, among others.

On May 29, 2026, the Company announced it had entered into an agreement to sell its Food Ingredients business, with minor perimeter adjustments (the “Food Ingredients disposal group”) to funds advised by CVC Capital Partners, a leading global private markets manager. As part of the transaction, the Company has chosen to retain a 10% minority equity interest in the business. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second quarter of 2027, subject to customary closing conditions and receipt of regulatory approvals. The Company determined that the sale of the Food Ingredients disposal group, combined with the sale of the related Soy Crush, Concentrates, and Lecithin businesses (the “SCL disposal group”), represented a strategic shift and met the held for sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria during the second quarter of 2026. Accordingly, the Company is separately reporting the results of both disposal groups as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 3 for further information.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2025 Form 10-K”), filed on February 27, 2026 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The interim Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q, and are unaudited. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, if not materially different from the 2025 Form 10-K. The year-end balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q was derived from the audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the interim Consolidated Financial Statements, have been made.

Financial information included in this Form 10-Q has been presented to separately show the effects of discontinued operations, unless otherwise specified. The cash flows from discontinued operations are included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. See Note 3 for significant cash flow items related to discontinued operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenue and expenses during the periods reported. The Company uses estimates to assess expected credit losses on its financial assets, sales discounts, rebates and allowances, the recoverability of inventory, the realization of deferred tax assets, annual effective tax rate, the recoverability of long-lived assets, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets including goodwill, restructuring reserves, pension and postretirement benefit costs, fair value of equity compensation, and the amount of exposure from potential loss contingencies, among others. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Inputs into the Company’s judgments and estimates take into account the ongoing global current events and macroeconomic environment on the Company’s critical and significant accounting estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2025, Management identified certain income tax-related adjustments that primarily relate to the understatement of income tax expense due to errors in the accounting for transfer pricing, the correction of deferred tax

liabilities on goodwill recorded in purchase accounting, and other income tax entries that impacted prior interim and annual financial statements. Management also identified certain other errors that were concluded to be immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the relevant periods. These include an adjustment to the Pharma Solutions disposal group loss on business disposal which should have been recognized upon the initial classification of the disposal group as held for sale, tax adjustments identified in prior periods primarily related to deferred taxes, balance sheet misclassifications to correct the netting of value added tax receivables and payables and uncertain tax provisions and benefits, an error in the classification of uncertain tax provisions recognized as deferred tax liabilities, an adjustment to record the right of use asset and lease liability related to a lease upon lease commencement that was incorrectly omitted, and a cash flow adjustment to correct the classification of cash paid/received on foreign currency forward contracts from operating activities to investing activities.

Management assessed the materiality of the errors on prior period interim and annual consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality,” codified in ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (“ASC 250”). Based on this assessment, in consideration of both quantitative and qualitative factors, management determined that the related impacts of the errors were not material to any previously issued interim or annual financial statements. However, if the corrections were recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2025, they would be material to that period. As such, management revised the prior period amounts presented in these financial statements to correct the errors. A summary of the revisions to the previously issued financial statements is included in Note 19.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported in the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS)June 30, 2026December 31, 2025June 30, 2025December 31, 2024
Current assets
Cash and cash equivalents$569$590$816$469
Cash and cash equivalents included in Assets held for sale———2
Cash and cash equivalents$569$590$816$471

The Company had no restricted cash as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Accounts Receivable

The Company has various factoring agreements globally under which it can factor up to approximately $578 million of its trade receivables (“Company’s own factoring agreements”). In addition, the Company utilizes factoring agreements sponsored by certain customers. Under all of the arrangements, the Company sells the trade receivables on a non-recourse basis to unrelated financial institutions and accounts for the transactions as sales of receivables. The applicable receivables are removed from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets when the cash proceeds are received by the Company.

On a total Company basis (including both continuing operations and discontinued operations), the Company sold a total of approximately $1,045 million and $910 million of receivables under the Company’s own factoring agreements and customer sponsored factoring agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The cost of participating in these programs was approximately $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and was approximately $11 million and $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These costs are included as a component of interest expense. Although the Company’s own factoring agreements are non-recourse to the Company, the Company has continued responsibility to collect receivables on behalf of sponsoring banks. Under these agreements, the Company sold approximately $820 million and $503 million of receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The outstanding principal amounts of receivables under the Company’s own factoring agreements amounted to approximately $423 million and $361 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The proceeds from the sales of receivables are included in Net cash provided by operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Expected Credit Losses

As of June 30, 2026, the Company reported $1.424 billion of trade receivables, net of allowances of $20 million. Based on the aging analysis as of June 30, 2026, less than 1% of the Company’s accounts receivable were past due by over 365 days based on the payment terms of the invoice.

The following is a roll-forward of the Company’s allowances for bad debts for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02 “Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations” to establish a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credits, including renewable energy certificates and carbon offsets. The update is intended to reduce diversity in practice and improve consistency in the accounting for these instruments. The guidance provides a model for recognizing and measuring related compliance obligations and requires expanded disclosures regarding the nature and use of such credits. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12 “Codification Improvements” to address suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting Standards Codification and to make other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and apply. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 to amend the guidance in “Interim Reporting” (Topic 270). The update provides clarifications intended to improve the consistency and usability of interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive listing of required interim disclosures and a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The amendments do not change the underlying objectives of interim reporting but are designed to enhance clarity in application. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect any significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations upon adoption.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, “Government Grants (Topic 832)”. The update provides recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements for government grants, including guidance for grants related to an asset and grants related to income. The amendments introduce two permitted approaches for asset-related grants: a deferred income approach or a cost accumulation approach. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09 to amend the guidance in “Derivatives and Hedging” (Topic 815). The update provides targeted improvements intended to enhance the application of hedge accounting, including expanded eligibility of forecasted transactions, additional flexibility in measuring hedge effectiveness, and clarifications related to hedging non-financial items. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted improvements to the Accounting for Internal-use Software”. The ASU was issued to modernize the accounting for internal-use software by eliminating the accounting consideration of software project development stages and clarifying the threshold applied to begin capitalizing costs. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. Public business entities are permitted to adopt the ASU prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets”, which provides a practical expedient to measure credit losses on accounts receivable and contract assets. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company has adopted the ASU prospectively and has determined that there is no material impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, and in January 2025, issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). The ASU was issued to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses, primarily through disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Public business entities are permitted to adopt the ASU prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

The Company declared a quarterly dividend to its shareholders of $0.40 per share for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. For each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company declared quarterly dividends to its shareholders totaling $0.80.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, there were approximately 0.2 million and 0.3 million share equivalents, respectively, that had an anti-dilutive effect and therefore were excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share.

NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Food Ingredients Disposal Group

On May 29, 2026, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Food Ingredients disposal group, which was included in the Food Ingredients segment, to CVC Capital Partners. As part of the transaction, the Company will retain an approximate 10% equity interest in the business.

The Company determined estimated proceeds of $3.832 billion less remaining costs to sell of $98 million. As this exceeds the carrying value of the net assets of the Food Ingredients disposal group, including amounts in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, there was not a loss on classification of the disposal group as held for sale as of June 30, 2026.

The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second quarter of 2027, subject to customary closing conditions and receipt of regulatory approvals. The sale consideration is subject to certain post-closing adjustments, which are primarily related to working capital balances and other adjustments per the transaction agreement.

The Company determined that the sale of the Food Ingredients disposal group, combined with the SCL disposal group comprised a single disposal plan to sell the majority of the Food Ingredients segment and represented a strategic shift and met the held for sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria during the second quarter of 2026. Accordingly, the Company is separately reporting the results of this disposal plan for the combined SCL disposal group and Food Ingredients disposal group as discontinued operations in its Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented. Cash flows from discontinued operations have not been shown separately in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for all periods presented.

Soy Crush, Concentrates & Lecithin Disposal Group

On August 5, 2025, the Company announced it had entered into a definitive agreement to divest its Soy Crush, Concentrates, and Lecithin business, which was included in the Food Ingredients segment, and is now included within discontinued operations. The Company completed the divestiture on March 2, 2026, and results of the SCL disposal group are now presented within discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company received cash proceeds of approximately $105 million and recognized a pre-tax loss of approximately $7 million in connection with this sale, presented within Income (loss) from discontinued operations before tax on the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2026. This is in addition to the life-to-date loss on assets classified as held for sale of $115 million as of December 31, 2025.

The sale consideration is subject to certain post-closing adjustments in accordance with the transaction agreement.

NOTE 4. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES HELD FOR SALE AND BUSINESS DIVESTITURES

Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

Sale of CitraSource Business

On June 23, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest the CitraSource business, which is included in the Scent segment. This transaction was closed on July 1, 2026.

The sale does not constitute a strategic shift of the Company’s operations and does not, and will not, have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Therefore, the transaction does not meet the discontinued operations criteria.

The Company determined that the assets and liabilities of the CitraSource business met the criteria to be presented as “held for sale” during the second quarter of 2026. As a result, as of June 30, 2026, such assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company determined that the fair value less costs to sell of $41 million of the CitraSource business was less than its net book value. As such, the Company recorded a loss on assets classified as held for sale of $27 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 to adjust the net book value of this business to its fair value less costs to sell. The Company recorded the loss on classification of held for sale as a valuation allowance on the group of assets held for sale, without allocation to the individual assets or major classes of assets within the group.

Carrying Amount of Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

Included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 are the following carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities held for sale, related to the CitraSource business.

Business Divestitures

Divestiture of the Pharma Solutions Disposal Group

During March 2024, the Company announced it had entered into an agreement to sell its Pharma Solutions business that is primarily made up of most businesses within the Company’s existing Pharma Solutions reportable operating segment (the “Pharma Solutions disposal group”). The Company completed the divestiture on May 1, 2025, and received gross cash proceeds of $2.581 billion at the time. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received an additional $97 million of proceeds related to an earnout for 2024 performance and has paid $11 million primarily related to indemnifications payable. The Company and the buyer are still in the process of determining the final earnout amount related to the 2025 performance and other post-closing adjustments, which are primarily related to cash, working capital balances, and other adjustments per the transaction agreement. The fair value estimation of the final earnout amount uses Level 3 unobservable inputs as categorized within the ASC Topic 820 fair value hierarchy, as discussed in Note 3 of the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K. Based on the final calculation of 2025 results and post-closing adjustments, there could be a significant increase or decrease in the total sale consideration.

NOTE 7. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s reportable segments are: Taste, Health & Biosciences, and Scent. Beginning in the second quarter of 2026, the Company determined that the held for sale and discontinued operations criteria were met for the entirety of the Food Ingredients segment, after certain perimeter adjustments, and classified its results as discontinued operations for the periods presented. Accordingly, the Food Ingredients segment results have been excluded from the segment information herein. Prior to the sale of the Pharma Solutions disposal group in the second quarter of 2025, Pharma Solutions was also a reportable segment.

The Company’s CODM evaluates the performance of these reportable segments based on its Adjusted Operating EBITDA, which is defined as Income from continuing operations before taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, restructuring and other charges and certain items that are not related to recurring operations. Certain corporate costs previously allocated to the Food Ingredients business for segment reporting purposes did not qualify for classification within discontinued operations and have been reallocated to the Company’s three remaining segments.

The Company’s CODM uses Adjusted Operating EBITDA to evaluate segment performance in deciding whether to reinvest resources into the segment or into other parts of the entity. Budget versus actual results of Adjusted Operating EBITDA are used in assessing performance of the segment and in establishing certain compensation payouts. The Company’s CODM also uses Adjusted Operating EBITDA in competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company’s competitors. Adjusted Operating EBITDA excludes results reported as discontinued operations.

The Company’s CODM does not use assets by segment to evaluate segment performance or allocate resources and thus, total assets by segment are not disclosed.

NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was 48.4%, which was primarily driven by increased non-deductible regulatory costs, changes in the mix of earnings as well as tax costs associated with repatriation activities, offset by favorable legislative changes impacting U.S. foreign inclusions.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 27.7%, which was primarily driven by increased non-deductible regulatory costs, the entity realignment project, changes in the mix of earnings post business divestitures, offset by favorable legislative changes impact U.S. foreign inclusions.

The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were (25.6)% and (17.5)%, respectively, which were primarily driven by the tax benefit resulting from the entity realignment project, offset in part by the impact of business divestitures and changes in the mix of earnings following the divestitures.

Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility

On June 23, 2026, the Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement providing for a $1.0 billion senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility. The facility permits a single borrowing in U.S. dollars through September 25, 2026, and matures on December 31, 2027, with no ability to re-borrow amounts repaid. Proceeds, together with cash on hand, are intended to refinance the Company’s €800 million aggregate principal amount of 1.800% Senior Notes due September 25, 2026, to pay related fees and expenses incurred in connection with the loan, and for general corporate purposes. Borrowings will bear interest at Term SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.500% per annum, or, at the Company’s option, a base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.000% to 0.500% per annum, in each case based on the Company’s public debt ratings. The agreement also requires mandatory prepayment with 100% of the net cash proceeds from the sale of the Company’s Food Ingredients business. The agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, including a maximum net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of 3.75 to 1.00, and events of default that are substantially consistent with those contained in the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.

Repayments of Debt

Tender Offers

On May 20, 2025, the Company commenced tender offers to purchase for cash certain of its outstanding series of Senior Notes for an aggregate purchase price, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, of $2.0 billion. The carrying value of this series of Senior Notes purchased as a result of these tender offers was $2.5 billion. The Company also incurred approximately $6 million of banking and legal costs. In connection with the completion of these tender offers, the Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $488 million within the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the period ended June 30, 2025. The tender offers were primarily funded through the proceeds received from the divestiture of the Pharma Solutions disposal group.

Other

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company made debt repayments totaling approximately $413 million on the remaining balance of the 2026 Term Loan Facility. This was done using a portion of the cash proceeds from the divestiture of the Pharma Solutions disposal group in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Facility agreement.

Commercial Paper

As of June 30, 2026, the amount of commercial paper outstanding was $50 million with a weighted average interest rate of 4.15% and a weighted average maturity of 14 days. As of December 31, 2025, the amount of commercial paper outstanding was $314 million with a weighted average interest rate of 4.21% and a weighted average maturity of 35 days.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had gross issuances of $2.731 billion and repayments of $2.995 billion under the commercial paper program. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had gross issuances of $3.284 billion and repayments of $3.284 billion under the commercial paper program. The commercial paper issued during each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 had original maturities of less than three months.

The commercial paper program is backed by the borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Credit Facility. The effective interest rate of commercial paper issuances does not materially differ from short-term interest rates, which fluctuate due to market conditions and as a result may impact the Company’s interest expense.

Revolving Credit Facility

For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had no drawdowns or repayments under the $2 billion Revolving Credit Facility.

Lines of Credit

The Company has various lines of credit which are available to support its ongoing business operations. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has a total capacity of approximately $1.738 billion of lines of credit with various financial institutions, of which $1.736 billion is available as of June 30, 2026.

NOTE 15. LEASES

NOTE 16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair Value

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

  • Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

  • Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

  • Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable*.*

This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The Company also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. The Company determines the fair value of structured liabilities (where performance is linked to structured interest rates, inflation or currency risks) using the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) swap curve and forward interest and exchange rates at period end. Such instruments are classified as Level 2 based on the observability of significant inputs to the model. Instruments classified as Level 3 include the receivable for earnout as discussed in Note 13, as well as instruments held in pension asset trusts as discussed in Note 8 of the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K. These valuations take into consideration the Company’s credit risk and its counterparties’ credit risk.

The carrying values and the estimated fair values of financial instruments at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consisted of the following:

(1)The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

(2)The carrying amount approximates fair value as the interest rate is reset frequently based on current market rates as well as the short maturity of those instruments.

(3)The carrying amount approximates fair value as the instruments are marked-to-market and held at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(4)The fair value of the Note is obtained from pricing services engaged by the Company, and the Company receives one price for each security. The fair value provided by the pricing services are estimated using pricing models, where the inputs to those models are based on observable market inputs or recent trades of similar securities. The inputs to the valuation techniques applied by the pricing services are typically benchmark yields, benchmark security prices, credit spreads, reported trades and broker-dealer quotes, all with reasonable levels of transparency.

Derivatives

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company periodically enters into foreign currency forward contracts with the objective of managing its exchange rate risk related to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities of its operations. These contracts generally involve the exchange of one currency for a second currency at a future date, have maturities not exceeding twelve months and are with counterparties which are major international financial institutions.

Hedges Related to Issuances of Debt

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no debt instruments designated as net investment hedges. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company de-designated its Euro Notes as a hedge of a portion of its net European investments. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the debt are recorded in earnings. Amounts previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) related to the hedge remain in AOCI until the related net investment is substantially liquidated. The Company entered into additional foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the remaining currency fluctuations on the Euro Notes until maturity in September 2026.

Cross Currency Swaps

The Company has twenty-two EUR/USD cross currency swaps with a notional value of $2.4 billion that mature through February 2036. The swaps all qualified as net investment hedges in order to mitigate a portion of the Company’s net European investments from foreign currency risk. As of June 30, 2026, the swaps were in a net liability position with an aggregate fair value of $194 million, of which $11 million were in an asset position presented in “Other assets” and $205 million were in a liability position presented in “Other liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in fair value related to cross currency swaps are recorded in OCI.

The following table shows the notional amount of the Company’s derivative instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

NOTE 18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Guarantees and Letters of Credit

The Company has various bank guarantees, letters of credit and surety bonds which are used to support its ongoing business operations, satisfy governmental requirements associated with pending litigation in various jurisdictions and the payment of customs duties. The amounts disclosed below represent commitments and guarantees that include both continuing and discontinued operations.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had a total of approximately $239 million of available bank guarantees, commercial guarantees, standby letters of credit and surety bonds with various financial institutions. There was a total of approximately $55 million outstanding under the bank guarantees, standby letters of credit and commercial guarantees as of June 30, 2026.

In order to challenge certain assessments in Brazil, the Company has been required to, and has separately pledged assets, principally property, plant and equipment, to cover assessments in the amount of approximately $8 million as of June 30, 2026.

Litigation

The Company assesses contingencies related to litigation and/or other matters to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss if reasonably estimable. A loss contingency is accrued in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly sensitive and requires judgments about future events and any assessments or the related decisions on accruals could be inaccurate. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews contingencies related to litigation to determine the adequacy of accruals. The amount of ultimate loss may substantially differ from these estimates and the amounts accrued, and further events may require the Company to increase or decrease the amounts it has accrued on any matter.

Periodically, the Company assesses its insurance coverage for all known claims, where applicable, taking into account aggregate coverage by occurrence, limits of coverage, self-insured retentions and deductibles, historical claims experience and claims experience with its insurance carriers. The probable liabilities are recorded at management’s best estimate of the probable outcome of the lawsuits and claims where reasonably estimable, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the individual matters as well as past experience on similar matters. At each balance sheet date, management assesses whether it is probable that a loss as to asserted or unasserted claims has been incurred and if so, whether the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company records the expected liability with respect to claims in Other current liabilities or Other liabilities and expected recoveries from its insurance carriers in Other current assets or Other assets. The Company recognizes a receivable when it believes that realization of the insurance receivable is probable under the terms of the insurance policies and its payment experience to date.

Litigation Matters

A motion to approve a securities class action was filed in the Tel Aviv District Court, Israel, in August 2019, alleging, among other things, false and misleading statements largely in connection with IFF’s acquisition of Frutarom and improper payments made by Frutarom businesses operating principally in Russia and Ukraine to representatives of customers. The motion (“Oman”) (following an initial amendment) asserted claims under the Israeli Securities Act-1968 against IFF, its former Chairman and CEO, and its former CFO, and against Frutarom and certain former Frutarom officers and directors, as well as claims under the Israeli Companies Act-1999 against certain former Frutarom officers and directors. On July 14, 2022, the court approved the parties’ motion to mediate the dispute, which postponed all case deadlines until after the mediation. The parties held mediation meetings on September 13, 2022, November 22, 2022, March 1, 2023, November 2023, March 3, 2024 and April 1, 2024. In November 2024, the court granted extensions to the parties’ joint filings of the responses to the Oman motion and for the evidential hearings, for the parties to exhaust the mediation proceeding. In the second quarter of 2025, the parties finalized a settlement agreement and submitted it to the court for approval. The settlement, approved by the court in November 2025, resolves all claims against Frutarom and its former officers and directors, and was made to avoid the cost, distraction and uncertainty of prolonged litigation. The settlement agreement states the settlement payment, fees and expenses totaling 24 million New Israel Shekel (approximately $7 million) will be paid by the respondents’ insurers. As of May 2026, the full settlement amount was received by the distribution trustee.

On October 29, 2019, IFF and Frutarom filed a claim in the Tel Aviv District Court, Israel, against Ori Yehudai, the former President and CEO of Frutarom, and against certain former directors of Frutarom, challenging the bonus of $20 million granted to Yehudai in 2018. IFF and Frutarom allege, among other things, that Yehudai was not entitled to receive the bonus because he breached his fiduciary duty by, among other things, knowing of the above-mentioned improper payments and failing to prevent them from being made. The parties agreed, pursuant to the court’s recommendation, to attempt to resolve the dispute through mediation, and a court decision is pending with regard to the order in which this claim and the class action described below will be heard.

On March 11, 2020, an IFF shareholder filed a motion to approve a class action in Israel against, among others, Frutarom, Yehudai, and Frutarom’s former board of directors, alleging that former minority shareholders of Frutarom were harmed as a result of the US $20 million bonus paid to Yehudai. The court held an evidentiary hearing on the motion to approve a class action in March 2024. In September 2025, the court issued a decision granting the motion to certify a class action. In December 2025, Frutarom submitted its motion for rehearing of that decision. Frutarom’s motion remains pending.

Since March 2023, various putative class action lawsuits have been filed against IFF, Firmenich International SA, Givaudan SA, and Symrise AG and/or certain affiliates thereof in the Quebec Superior Court, the Federal Court of Canada, Ontario Superior Court, the Supreme Court of British Columbia and, in several cases, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. These actions allege violations of the Canadian Competition Act and the Sherman Act, as applicable, and other related claims, and seek damages and other relief. IFF announced on October 17, 2025, that it entered into a settlement agreement which will be a full settlement of the multiple civil class actions brought by direct purchasers of fragrance products in the United States. On November 17, 2025, the U.S. District Court granted the motion for preliminary approval of this settlement and IFF then contributed $26 million to a settlement fund to resolve all class claims related to this direct purchaser class. On March 16, 2026 and April 6, 2026, IFF entered into respective settlement agreements with the end-user plaintiffs and the indirect purchaser plaintiffs, respectively. After preliminary approval from the U.S. District Court, IFF contributed $6 million to a settlement with indirect purchaser plaintiffs on June 25, 2026, and contributed $11 million to a settlement with end-user plaintiffs on May 6, 2026. Notices are being published for the plaintiffs in each of the three class action settlements; the notice periods have not yet closed. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a total provision of $43 million within “Selling and Administrative Expenses” in connection with the U.S. class action lawsuits, based on estimated potential settlement amount inclusive of the amounts noted above related to settlements with direct purchasers, indirect purchasers and end-user plaintiffs. This provision does not include any potential liabilities that may arise from other civil proceedings not encompassed by the U.S. class action lawsuits. On January 27, 2026, an additional class action complaint was filed in the District of New Jersey on behalf of a class of purchasers in the United States of consumer goods containing fragrance products that were purchased outside the United States. A settlement agreement has also been reached in this class action. This settlement will not require a payment from the Company. On July 7, 2026, the Ontario Superior Court denied the plaintiff’s motion to certify the action as a Canadian national class action. IFF may face additional civil suits, in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, European Union or in other countries, relating to such alleged conduct. At this time, IFF is unable to predict the potential outcome of these lawsuits or any potential effect they may have on the Company’s results of operations, liquidity or financial condition. The resolution of any of these items could have a material adverse effect on IFF’s results of operation, financial condition and overall business.

Investigations

On June 3, 2020, the Israel Police’s National Fraud Investigation Unit and the Israeli Securities Authority commenced an investigation into Frutarom and certain of its former executives, based on suspected bribery of foreign officials, money laundering, and violations of the Israeli Securities Act-1968. On February 26, 2024, the Israeli authorities informed Frutarom that the authorities decided to close the criminal investigation.

On March 7, 2023, the European Commission (“EC”) and the United Kingdom Competition and Markets Authority (“CMA”) carried out unannounced inspections of certain of IFF’s facilities. IFF understands the EC, CMA and the Swiss Competition Commission are investigating potential anticompetitive conduct as it relates to IFF’s fragrance businesses. On the same day, IFF was served with a grand jury subpoena by the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”). The Mexican Competition Commission has also announced that it is investigating potential anticompetitive conduct in the fragrance and fragrance ingredients industries. On February 5, 2026, IFF received a letter from DOJ confirming the closing of its investigation (such decision is independent of the other related civil or regulatory matters). The Company has applied for leniency in a number of jurisdictions. Leniency, if obtained in a jurisdiction, would generally carry significant benefits by, for example, reducing or eliminating monetary liability in that jurisdiction. Since March 7, 2023, other investigations have been underway or threatened in other jurisdictions related to claimed anti-competitive conduct. While these investigations are confidential, the Company is cooperating and/or seeking leniency in those jurisdictions, as well. IFF has been and intends to continue actively cooperating with these investigations, as well as any other present or future inquiries from governmental authorities.

During 2026, additional investigations have been initiated in Singapore and India relating to employment practices in the fragrance industry. As with the other investigations, IFF is cooperating with the regulators in these investigations.

As of June 30, 2026, IFF has recognized provisions based on its best estimates related to the pending investigations. IFF is currently unable to predict or determine the duration or outcome of the investigations, or whether the outcome of the investigations will materially impact the Company’s results of operations, liquidity or financial condition. An adverse judgment or other outcome or settlement with respect to any proceedings discussed above could result in significant fines or payments by IFF. The resolution of any of these items could have a material adverse effect on IFF’s results of operations, financial condition, and overall business.

Environmental Proceedings

Effective March 22, 2024, the Solae, LLC Memphis site (“Solae”) signed an Administrative Order on Consent (the “Consent Order”) resolving violations and penalties pertaining to the Administrative Order and Assessment received from the City of Memphis on May 27, 2022 related to alleged wastewater discharge violations. In view of the Consent Order, Solae withdrew its previously filed appeal. Pursuant to the Consent Order, Solae is completing its capital project efforts in accordance with the agreed schedule for attaining compliance with current wastewater permit requirements. This matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Other Contingencies

The Company has contingencies involving third parties (such as labor, contract, technology or product-related claims or litigation) as well as government-related items in various jurisdictions in which it operates pertaining to such items as value-added taxes, other indirect taxes, customs and duties and sales and use taxes. It is possible that cash flows or results of operations, in any period, could be materially affected by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies.

The most significant government-related contingencies exist in Brazil. With regard to the Brazilian matters, the Company believes it has valid defenses for the underlying positions under dispute; however, in order to pursue these defenses, the Company is required to, and has provided, bank guarantees and pledged assets in the aggregate amount of approximately $20 million. The Brazilian matters take an extended period of time to proceed through the judicial process and there are a limited number of rulings to date.

Other

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been fully resolved. Due to the inherent subjectivity and unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, the Company is unable to determine, with certainty, the probability of the outcome of these matters or the range of reasonably possible losses, if any.

Other Matters

On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) does not authorize the imposition of tariffs, effectively invalidating IEEPA‑based tariffs that had been in effect since February 2025. On April 20, 2026, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) launched an online portal that may be used to submit requests for refunds of IEEPA tariffs previously assessed. All refund requests are subject to CBP review and approval prior to the issuance of any refunds.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had recorded approximately $18 million of tariff refunds received, net of amounts expected to be remitted to customers, related to refunds of previously paid tariffs. The Company will continue to evaluate new information and will recognize additional tariff refunds and any related obligations when the applicable recognition criteria under ASC 450, Contingencies, are met.

NOTE 19. REVISION OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Management identified certain income tax-related adjustments that primarily relate to the understatement of income tax expense due to errors in the accounting for transfer pricing, the correction of deferred tax liabilities on goodwill recorded in purchase accounting, and other income tax entries that impacted prior interim and annual financial statements. Management also identified certain other errors that were concluded to be immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the relevant periods. These include an adjustment to the Pharma Solutions disposal group loss on business disposal which should have been recognized upon the initial classification of the disposal group as held for sale, tax adjustments identified in prior periods primarily related to deferred taxes, balance sheet misclassifications to correct the netting of value added tax receivables and payables and uncertain tax provisions and benefits, an error in the classification of uncertain tax provisions recognized as deferred tax liabilities, an adjustment to record the right of use asset and lease liability related to a lease upon lease commencement that was incorrectly omitted, and a cash flow adjustment to correct the classification of cash paid/received on foreign currency forward contracts from operating activities to investing activities.

Management assessed the materiality of the errors on prior period interim and annual consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality,” codified in ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (“ASC 250”). Based on this assessment, in consideration of both quantitative and qualitative factors, management determined that the related impacts of the errors were not material to any previously issued interim or annual financial statements. However, if the corrections were recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2025, they would be material to that period. As such, management revised the prior period amounts presented in these financial statements to correct the errors.

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, management identified an additional error related to tax expense on business disposals that affects the interim consolidated financial statements for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2025 and nine months ended September 30, 2025 reported within our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal periods ended June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025. Management revised the prior interim periods to correct this error, as noted in our 2025 Form 10-K. The error had no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The following tables include the revisions to previously filed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the periods ended June 30, 2025. The applicable notes to the accompanying financial statements have also been corrected to reflect the impact of the revisions of the previously filed consolidated interim financial statements. The following tables further present a reconciliation to the revised and recast interim consolidated financial statements reflecting discontinued operations.

NOTE 20. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Sale of Portfolio of Botanical Extracts, Vitamins & Minerals and Food Enhancement Products

On July 20, 2026, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to divest its portfolio of Botanical Extracts, Vitamins & Minerals, and Food Enhancement Products, which are primarily included in the Health & Biosciences and Taste segments. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026. The Company expects the transaction to result in a pre-tax loss on the sale in the range of approximately $200 million to $300 million, inclusive of any related goodwill impairment.

Enhanced Share Repurchase Authorization

On August 4, 2026, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized an enhanced share repurchase authorization with a total value of $2.5 billion; this amount included approximately $400 million remaining on its prior authorization. Under the program, the Board of Directors also authorized an accelerated share repurchase of $500 million, which the Company expects to execute in the second half of 2026. The remaining $2.0 billion share repurchase is expected to be executed following the closing of the Food Ingredients disposal group divestiture, with an expected completion of the program by the end of 2027. The Board will review the share repurchase program periodically and may authorize adjustments of its term and size. The Company plans to fund repurchases from cash provided by operating activities, short-term debt and net cash proceeds provided by the divestiture of the Food Ingredients disposal group.
