Non-Cash Activity
Non-cash investing activities include movements in our guarantee of indebtedness of certain equity method investments. See Note 3, "Investments" for further discussion. We also had non-cash activities related to capital expenditures incurred but not yet paid of $163.6 million and $204.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. In addition, we had non-cash activities related to certain issuances of share-based awards.
Other than the activity mentioned above and the supplemental non-cash activity related to the recognition of leases further discussed in Note 6, "Leases," there was no other significant non-cash activity during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively.
Supplier Financing
We are the buyer under a supplier finance program with Citibank N.A. with $171.9 million and $147.5 million confirmed as valid and outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. We recognize these unpaid balances in accounts payable and other current liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts for trade receivables was $14.2 million and $12.7 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
2. New Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures intended to enhance transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This guidance is effective for us starting with our annual report for the year ending December 31, 2025 and the guidance should be applied prospectively. We are permitted to early adopt and can choose to apply the guidance retrospectively. When adopted, we expect the guidance to have an impact on disclosures only and to not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. We are still considering if we will apply the standard prospectively or retrospectively.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures intended to improve reportable segment disclosures and to enhance disclosures about significant reportable segment expenses. This guidance is effective for us starting with our annual report for the year ending December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim periods and is required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. Because the amendments do not change the methodology for the identification of operating segments, the aggregation of those operating segments or the application of the quantitative thresholds to determine reportable segments, we do not expect the guidance to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Other than the items noted above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective or adopted in the current year that we believe have a significant impact, or potential significant impact, on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. Investments
Our investments include both equity method and consolidated investments. Those entities identified as VIEs have been evaluated to determine whether we are the primary beneficiary. The VIEs included under "Consolidated VIEs" below are those for which we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary and accordingly, we have consolidated these entities. We have not provided any financial support to any of our VIEs during the six months ended June 30, 2024 that we were not previously contractually obligated to provide. Amounts due to and due from our equity method investments are recorded as affiliate accounts payable and affiliate accounts receivables which are presented within accounts payable and other current liabilities and trade receivables, net, respectively, on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Authoritative guidance related to the consolidation of VIEs requires that we continually reassess whether we are the primary beneficiary of VIEs in which we have an interest. As such, the conclusion regarding the primary beneficiary status is subject to change and we continually evaluate circumstances that could require consolidation or deconsolidation. Our consolidated VIEs are Cobra Beer Partnership, Ltd. ("Cobra U.K." or "CBPL"), Rocky Mountain Metal Container ("RMMC"), and Rocky Mountain Bottle Company ("RMBC"), as well as other immaterial entities. Our unconsolidated VIEs are Brewers Retail Inc. ("BRI"), Brewers Distributor Ltd. ("BDL") and The Yuengling Company LLC ("TYC"), as well as other immaterial investments. Under our CBPL U.K. partnership agreement, our partner has exercised an option which will result in our acquisition of the remaining 49.9% ownership interest, with the transaction anticipated to close during the third quarter of 2024 pending the finalization of terms.
Both BRI and BDL have outstanding third party debt which is guaranteed by their respective shareholders. As a result, we had a guarantee liability of $31.6 million and $35.4 million recorded as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which is presented within accounts payable and other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and represents our proportionate share of the outstanding balance of these debt instruments. The offset to the guarantee liability was recorded as an adjustment to our respective equity method investment within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The resulting change in our equity method investments during the year due to movements in the guarantee represents a non-cash investing activity.

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
The changes in the carrying value of goodwill is presented in the table below by segment.

| Balance as of December 31, 2023 | $ | 5,325.3 | $ | — | $ | 5,325.3 | |||||||||||

| Balance as of June 30, 2024 | $ | 5,321.9 | $ | — | $ | 5,321.9 |
(1)Accumulated impairment losses for the Americas segment was $1,513.3 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The EMEA&APAC goodwill balance was fully impaired during the year ended December 31, 2020 with an accumulated impairment loss of $1,484.3 million.
As of the date of our annual impairment test performed as of October 1, 2023, the fair value of the Americas reporting unit goodwill balance was in excess of its carrying value by slightly less than 15%, and as such, the reporting unit continues to be at heightened risk of future impairment in the event of significant unfavorable changes in assumptions. We continue to focus on growing our core power brands net sales, aggressively premiumizing our portfolio and scaling and expanding beyond beer. While progress has been made on these strategies over recent years, including the strengthening of our core power brands, the growth targets included in management’s forecasted future cash flows are inherently at risk given that the strategies are still in progress. Additionally, the fair value determinations are sensitive to changes in the beer industry environment, broader macroeconomic conditions and market multiples or discount rates that could negatively impact future analyses, including the impacts of cost inflation, further increases to interest rates and other external industry factors impacting our business.
We determined that there was no triggering event that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024 that would indicate the carrying value of our Americas reporting unit was greater than its fair value.

The changes in the gross carrying amounts of intangible assets from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024 were primarily driven by the impact of foreign exchange rates, as a significant amount of intangible assets, other than goodwill, are denominated in foreign currencies.
Based on foreign exchange rates as of June 30, 2024, the estimated future amortization expense of intangible assets was as follows:
| Fiscal year | Amount | |||||||
| (In millions) | ||||||||
| 2024 - remaining | $ | 104.3 | ||||||
| 2025 | $ | 208.6 | ||||||
| 2026 | $ | 190.1 | ||||||
| 2027 | $ | 125.6 | ||||||
| 2028 | $ | 124.1 |
Amortization expense of intangible assets was $52.2 million and $51.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, and $104.6 million and $102.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. This expense was presented within MG&A expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As of the date of our annual impairment test of indefinite-lived intangible assets, performed as of October 1, 2023, the carrying value of the Staropramen family of brands in EMEA&APAC was determined to be in excess of its fair value such that an impairment loss was recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2023. As this was a partial impairment, the intangible asset is considered to be at a heightened risk of future impairment in the event of significant unfavorable changes in assumptions, including forecasted future cash flows based on execution of strategic initiatives for expansion and distribution of the brand, as well as discount rates and other macroeconomic factors.
The fair value of the Coors brands in the Americas, the Miller brands in the U.S. and the Carling brands in EMEA&APAC all exceeded their respective carrying values by over 15% as of the October 1, 2023 annual testing date.
No triggering events were identified during the six months ended June 30, 2024 that would indicate the carrying values of our indefinite-lived or definite-lived intangible assets were greater than their fair values.
Fair Value Assumptions
Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions and factors. The key assumptions used to derive the estimated fair values of our reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets are discussed in Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 6, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets" in our Annual Report, and represent Level 3 measurements.

(1)We repaid our EUR 800 million 1.25% senior notes upon maturity on July 15, 2024 using the cash proceeds from our EUR 800 million 3.8% senior notes issued on May 29, 2024 and cash on hand.
(2)On May 29, 2024, MCBC issued EUR 800 million 3.8% senior notes with a maturity of June 15, 2032 ("EUR 2032 Notes"). The issuance resulted in total proceeds of $863.7 million, net of underwriting fees and discounts. Total debt discounts and debt issuance costs capitalized in connection with these notes, including underwriting fees, were approximately $7.1 million, and are being amortized over the term of the EUR 2032 Notes. The EUR 2032 Notes began accruing interest upon issuance, with interest payments due annually. Additionally, upon issuance we designated the EUR 2032 Notes as a hedge of our investment in a EUR functional currency subsidiary. See Note 8, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for further details.
(3)Our short-term borrowings include bank overdrafts, borrowings on our overdraft facilities and other items.
As of June 30, 2024, we had $22.5 million in bank overdrafts and $84.2 million in bank cash related to our cross-border, cross-currency cash pool for a net positive position of $61.7 million. As of December 31, 2023, we had $16.5 million in bank overdrafts and $75.5 million in bank cash related to our cross-border, cross-currency cash pool for a net positive position of $59.0 million.
In addition, we have CAD, GBP and USD overdraft facilities under which we had no outstanding borrowings as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. See further detail within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" in our Annual Report for further discussion related to letters of credit.
Debt Fair Value Measurements
We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of certain outstanding borrowings by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the contractual terms of the obligations using observable market interest and foreign exchange rates. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of our outstanding long-term debt (including the current portion of long-term debt) was approximately $6.6 billion and $5.9 billion, respectively. All senior notes are valued based on significant observable inputs and classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying values of all other outstanding long-term borrowings and our short-term borrowings approximate their fair values and are also classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Revolving Credit Facility and Commercial Paper
On June 3, 2024, we amended our existing $2.0 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend the maturity date from June 26, 2028 to June 26, 2029. The amendment did not change the borrowing capacity of the revolving credit facility, which allows us to issue a maximum aggregate amount of $2.0 billion in commercial paper or other borrowings at any time at variable interest rates. Similarly, the $150.0 million sub-facility available for the issuance of letters of credit remains unchanged. We use this facility from time to time to leverage cash needs to fund the repayment of debt upon maturity and for working capital or general purposes.
We had no borrowings drawn on the amended and restated multi-currency revolving credit facility and no commercial paper borrowings as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Debt Covenants
Under the terms of each of our debt facilities, we must comply with certain restrictions. These include customary events of default and specified representations, warranties and covenants, as well as covenants that restrict our ability to incur certain additional priority indebtedness (certain thresholds of secured consolidated net tangible assets), certain leverage threshold percentages, create or permit liens on assets, and restrictions on mergers, acquisitions and certain types of sale lease-back transactions.
Under the amended and restated $2.0 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility, we are required to maintain a maximum leverage ratio, calculated as net debt to EBITDA (as defined in the amended and restated multi-currency revolving credit facility agreement) of 4.00x, measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter through maturity of the credit facility. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all of these restrictions and covenants, have met such financial ratios and have met all debt payment obligations. All of our outstanding senior notes as of June 30, 2024 rank pari-passu.
8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Our risk management and derivative accounting policies are presented within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in our Annual Report and did not significantly change during the six months ended June 30, 2024. As noted in Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in our Annual Report, due to the nature of our counterparty agreements, and the fact that we are not subject to master netting arrangements, we are not able to net positions with the same counterparty and, therefore, present our derivative positions on a gross basis in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Except as noted below, our significant derivative positions have not changed considerably since December 31, 2023.
Net Investment Hedges
On May 29, 2024, concurrent with the issuance of the EUR 2032 Notes, we designated the principal of the notes as a non-derivative net investment hedge of our investment in a EUR functional currency subsidiary in order to hedge a portion of the related foreign currency translational impacts. Accordingly, we will record the changes in the carrying value of the EUR 2032 Notes due to fluctuations in the spot rate to AOCI. See Note 7, "Debt" for further discussion of the EUR 2032 Notes.
Additionally, on May 29, 2024, we de-designated the principal of the EUR 800 million 1.25% notes and as a result, the associated net investment hedge was discontinued. The accumulated gains and losses associated with the settled net investment hedge will remain in AOCI until a liquidation or deconsolidation event at which point the accumulated gains and losses will be reclassified into earnings.
Foreign Currency Forwards
In the second quarter of 2023, we entered into approximately CAD 260 million (approximately 195 million USD) of foreign exchange forward contracts to manage our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations related to the repayment of our CAD 500 million 2.84% notes that matured on July 15, 2023. These contracts were not designated in hedge accounting relationships and, as such, changes in the fair value were recorded in other non-operating income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. These contracts settled on July 12, 2023 for an immaterial amount in advance of the notes being repaid.
Derivative Fair Value Measurements
We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the derivative's contractual terms and observable market interest, foreign exchange and commodity rates. The fair values of our derivatives also include credit risk adjustments to account for our counterparties' credit risk, as well as our own non-performance risk, as appropriate.
The table below summarizes our derivative assets (liabilities) that were measured at fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair value for all derivative contracts as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were valued using significant other observable inputs, which are Level 2 inputs.

(1)Represents amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for which the difference between changes in fair value and period amortization is recorded in OCI.
The cumulative translation adjustments related to our net investment hedges remain in AOCI until the respective underlying net investment is sold or liquidated. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, we did not reclassify any amounts related to net investment hedges from AOCI into earnings.
As of June 30, 2024, we expect net losses of approximately $1 million (pretax) recorded in AOCI will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. For derivatives designated in cash flow hedge relationships, the maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are hedged as of June 30, 2024 is approximately 3 years.

| Effective tax rate | 24 | % | 22 | % | 23 | % | 23 | % |
The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the prior year was primarily due to the recognition of tax expense items in the three months ended June 30, 2024, which in the aggregate were immaterial, compared to the recognition of tax benefit items in the three months ended June 30, 2023, which in the aggregate were also immaterial.
Our tax rate can be volatile and may change with, among other things, the amount and source of pretax income or loss, our ability to utilize foreign tax credits, excess tax benefits or deficiencies from share-based compensation, changes in tax laws and the movement of liabilities established pursuant to accounting guidance for uncertain tax positions as statutes of limitations expire, positions are effectively settled, or when additional information becomes available. There are proposed or pending tax law changes in various jurisdictions and other changes to regulatory environments in countries in which we do business that, if enacted, could have an impact on our effective tax rate.
Recently, intergovernmental entities such as the Organization for Economic Development ("OECD") and European Union ("EU") have proposed changes to the existing tax laws of member countries, including model rules introduced by the OECD for a new 15% global minimum tax. In December 2022, the EU member states agreed to incorporate the 15% global minimum tax into their respective domestic laws effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023. In addition, several non-EU countries, including Canada and the U.K., have proposed and/or adopted legislation consistent with the OECD global minimum tax framework. The global minimum tax, which is now effective in countries with enacted legislation, did not materially impact our financial or cash tax position in the three or six months ended June 30, 2024. We continue to evaluate the impact on future periods as previously-enacting countries issue related guidance and additional countries consider adoption of the global minimum tax rules.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation and Other Disputes and Environmental
Related to litigation, other disputes and environmental issues, we have an aggregate accrued contingent liability of $71.1 million and $70.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. While we cannot predict the eventual aggregate cost for litigation, other disputes and environmental matters in which we are currently involved, we believe adequate reserves have been provided for losses that are probable and estimable. For all matters unless otherwise noted below, we believe that any reasonably possible losses in excess of the amounts accrued are immaterial to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Our litigation, other disputes and environmental issues are discussed in further detail within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" in our Annual Report and did not significantly change during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Other than those disclosed below, we are also involved in other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the outcome of these proceedings, in our opinion, based on a review with legal counsel, other than as noted, none of these disputes or legal actions are expected to have a material impact on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
On February 12, 2018, Stone Brewing Company filed a trademark infringement lawsuit in federal court in the Southern District of California against Molson Coors Beverage Company USA LLC ("MCBC USA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of our Company, alleging that the Keystone brand had “rebranded” itself as “Stone” and was marketing itself in a manner confusingly similar to Stone Brewing Company's registered Stone trademark. In the first quarter of 2022, a jury returned a verdict in which it concluded that trademark infringement had occurred and awarded Stone Brewing Company $56.0 million in damages. After denial of post-trial motions, in the fourth quarter of 2023, MCBC USA filed a notice of appeal in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a recorded accrued liability of $59.5 million and $58.5 million, respectively, within other liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets reflecting the best estimate of probable loss in this case based on the judgment plus associated post-judgment interest. However, it is reasonably possible that the estimate of the loss could change in the near term based on the progression of the case, including the appeals process. We will continue to monitor the status of the case and will adjust the accrual in the period in which any significant change occurs which could impact the estimate of the loss for this matter.
Regulatory Contingencies
The Province of Ontario and Molson Canada 2005, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of our Company, Labatt Brewing Company Limited, Sleeman Breweries Ltd. (collectively, the "Representative Owners") and BRI, operating under the name The Beer Store ("TBS"), are parties to a Master Framework Agreement ("MFA") that dictates the terms of the beer distribution and retail systems in the Province of Ontario. In December 2023, the Province of Ontario notified the Representative Owners and TBS that it would not be renewing the MFA after the initial term which expires on December 31, 2025. The Province of Ontario simultaneously announced a set of non-binding key principles ("Key Principles") agreed upon between the Province of Ontario, the Representative Owners and TBS, concerning the intended features of the future marketplace for beer distribution and retail systems in the Province of Ontario. Under the Key Principles, TBS will be permitted to continue its retail operations and will continue to be the primary distributor of beer in the Province of Ontario through at least 2031. The Key Principles also state grocery stores, convenience stores, gas stations and big-box retailers in the Province of Ontario will be able to apply for licenses to sell beer, wine, cider and ready-to-drink cocktails starting no later than January 1, 2026. On May 23, 2024, the Representative Owners, TBS and the Province of Ontario (collectively, the "Parties") entered into an Early Implementation Agreement ("EIA") which aligns to the Key Principles that were derived in December of 2023 and replaces the MFA agreement. The EIA is effective August 1, 2024 with certain provisions starting as early as July 18, 2024 and continues until December 31, 2030. In summary, the EIA allows for the expansion of licensed sale of beer, wine and ready-to-drink cocktails to all convenience stores beginning on September 5, 2024 and all grocery stores beginning on October 31, 2024. In addition, under the EIA, the Province of Ontario will provide financial support to TBS and the representative owners of up to CAD 225 million through reimbursement of costs incurred in connection with the early implementation and to TBS in connection with the operation of the agreed upon retail footprint during the interim period between the commencement date of the EIA and the original expiration date of the MFA. We continue to evaluate the impacts of the EIA and the expected future marketplace for beer distribution and retail systems in the Province of Ontario on our results of operations.
Guarantees and Indemnities
We guarantee indebtedness and other obligations to banks and other third parties for some of our equity method investments and consolidated subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets include liabilities related to these guarantees of $33.9 million and $36.9 million, respectively.
Separately, related to our Cervejarias Kaiser Brasil S.A. ("Kaiser") indemnities, we accrued $10.2 million and $11.8 million, in aggregate, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 respectively. Our Kaiser liabilities are discussed in further detail within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" in our Annual Report and did not significantly change during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

13. Segment Reporting
Our reporting segments are based on the key geographic regions in which we operate and include the Americas and EMEA&APAC segments. Our Americas segment operates in the U.S., Canada and various countries in the Caribbean, Latin and South America and our EMEA&APAC segment operates in Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Montenegro, the Republic of Ireland, Romania, Serbia, the U.K., various other European countries and certain countries within the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific.
We also have certain activity that is not allocated to our segments, which has been reflected as "Unallocated" below. Specifically, Unallocated activity primarily includes financing-related costs such as interest expense and income, foreign exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances, realized and unrealized changes in fair value on derivative instruments not designated in hedging relationships related to financing and other treasury-related activities and the unrealized changes in fair value on our commodity swaps not designated in hedging relationships recorded within cost of goods sold, which are later reclassified when realized to the segment in which the underlying exposure resides. Additionally, only the service cost component of net periodic pension and OPEB cost is reported within each operating segment and all other components remain in Unallocated.
Summarized Financial Information
No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.
Consolidated net sales represent sales to third-party external customers less excise taxes. Inter-segment transactions impacting net sales and income (loss) before income taxes eliminate upon consolidation and are primarily related to the Americas segment royalties received from, and sales to the EMEA&APAC segment.
