NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include our results of our consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
We use a 52- to 53-week year ending on the Friday nearest to December 31. 2024 is a 53-week year and 2023 was a 52-week year. The third quarter of 2024 and 2023 ended on September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to these periods.
Use of Estimates
We prepared our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that accompany these notes in conformity with U.S. GAAP, consistent in all material respects with those applied in our 2023 Form 10-K.
The interim financial information is unaudited, and reflects all normal adjustments that are, in our opinion, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This report should be read in conjunction with our 2023 Form 10-K that includes additional information about our significant accounting policies and the methods and assumptions used in our estimates.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates and assumptions are used for (i) revenue recognition, including determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and determining standalone selling price of performance obligations; (ii) inventory valuation; (iii) valuation of investments; (iv) valuation of long-lived assets and their estimated useful lives; (v) goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment analyses; (vi) stock-based compensation; and (vii) income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates.
New Segment Structure
As a result of the Ag divestiture and our Chief Operating Decision Maker’s (“CODM”) revised organizational structure, effective in the first quarter of 2024, we reorganized our businesses under a new segment structure. This structure brings similar businesses together, which is expected to enhance our ability to achieve scale and growth consistent with our strategy. The updated segment structure is comprised of (i) Architects, Engineers, Construction and Owners (“AECO”), (ii) Field Systems, and (iii) Transportation and Logistics (“T&L”). Prior-year information has been adjusted to reflect the change in segment reporting.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The ASU requires additional disclosures by disaggregating the costs and expense line items that are presented on the face of the income statement. The disaggregation includes: (i) amounts of purchased inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and other related costs and expenses; (ii) an explanation of costs and expenses that are not disaggregated on a quantitative basis; and (iii) the definition and total amount of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning in 2027 and subsequent interim reports. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU should be applied prospectively. Retrospective application is permitted for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our financial reporting disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The ASU updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through (i) enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, (ii) the composition of other segment items, and (iii) optional disclosures of more than one measure of segment profit or loss if the CODM uses those measures to assess segment performance and allocate resources. The ASU is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning in 2024 and subsequent interim reports. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Adoption of this ASU will result in additional disclosures related to the reportable segments.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU updates the annual income tax disclosures by requiring (i) specific categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, (ii) income taxes paid disaggregated by taxing authority and jurisdiction, and (iii) disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit). Additionally, certain existing disclosure requirements are removed. The
ASU is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning in 2025 and is applied prospectively. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our financial reporting disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There are no recently adopted accounting pronouncements.
NOTE 2. COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE
On January 28, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program (the “2024 Stock Repurchase Program”) authorizing up to $800.0 million in repurchases of our common stock. The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program replaced the prior stock repurchase program, which was approved in August 2021 and has been cancelled.
Under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program, we may repurchase stock from time to time through accelerated share repurchase programs, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, block purchases, tender offers, or by other means. The timing and actual number of any stock repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, our stock price, other available uses of capital, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. At the end of the third quarter of 2024, there were remaining authorized funds of $625.0 million. The stock repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date.
There were no stock repurchases during the third quarter of 2024. During the first three quarters of 2024, we repurchased approximately 2.9 million shares of common stock in open market purchases at an average price of $60.97 per share for a total of $175.0 million. There were no stock repurchases during the first three quarters of 2023.
Stock repurchases are reflected as a decrease to common stock based on par value and additional-paid-in-capital, determined by the average book value per share of outstanding stock, calculated at the time of each individual repurchase transaction. The excess of the purchase price over this average for each repurchase was charged to retained earnings. Common stock repurchases under the program were recorded based upon the trade date for accounting purposes.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITION
On April 3, 2023, we acquired Transporeon GmbH in an all-cash transaction. Transporeon is a Germany-based company and leading cloud-based transportation management software platform that connects key stakeholders across the industry lifecycle to positively impact the optimization of global supply chains, which aligns with our Connect and Scale strategy. Transporeon is reported as part of our T&L segment.
The total purchase consideration was €1.9 billion, or $2.1 billion, which included the repayment of outstanding Transporeon debt of $339.6 million. In allocating the purchase price, we recorded $1,390.1 million of goodwill, $939.8 million of identifiable intangible assets, $9.3 million of net tangible assets, and $256.6 million of deferred tax liability. See Note 3 “Acquisitions” of the 2023 Form 10-K for additional information.
Pro Forma Financial Information
The unaudited pro forma financial information presented in the following table was determined by combining the historical financial information of Trimble and Transporeon, along with the effects from business combination accounting and the associated debt resulting from this acquisition as if the companies were combined beginning in the first quarter of 2022. This information is presented for informational purposes only, and it is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated as of that date. This information should not be used as a predictive measure of our future financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

NOTE 4. DIVESTITURES
Pending Mobility Divestiture
On September 14, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement with Platform Science to sell our Mobility business, which is part of our T&L segment. The pending transaction aims to enhance driver experience, fleet safety, efficiency, and compliance by combining two cutting-edge in-cab commercial vehicle ecosystems, which will give customers access to more applications and offerings. As part of the agreement, we will own, and have rights to acquire, 32.5% of Platform Science’s expanded business upon the closing of the pending transaction, for an approximate fair value of $248.7 million. We will receive (i) shares of preferred stock of Platform Science, with certain liquidation preferences, that represent 28.5% of Platform Science’s expanded business and (ii) warrants allowing us the rights to acquire 4% of Platform Science’s expanded business. We expect the pending transaction to close in the first half of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approval. Upon the closing, our equity ownership interest will be reported at cost under the measurement alternative election for equity investments.
The assets and liabilities of Mobility are classified as held for sale beginning in the third quarter of 2024. A valuation allowance was established to reduce the carrying value of the disposal group assets to fair value. The fair value of the disposal group was determined based on unobservable inputs, including discounted cash flow projections, market comparables, and an option pricing model. As a result, in the third quarter of 2024, we recorded a pre-tax loss of approximately $23.5 million included within Divestitures (loss) gain, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following table presents the major classes of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale as of the third quarter of 2024, including the valuation allowance.

Ag Divestiture
On September 28, 2023, we executed a Sale and Contribution Agreement with AGCO that provided for the formation of a joint venture, called PTx Trimble, that operates in the mixed fleet precision agriculture market. The agreement was amended and restated on March 31, 2024, and the transaction closed on April 1, 2024. Under the terms of the agreement, we contributed our Ag business, excluding certain GNSS and guidance technologies, to PTx Trimble, an LLC. Following the closing of the transaction, we own 15% and AGCO owns 85% of PTx Trimble. The agreement provides AGCO with a call option and Trimble with a put option with respect to our retained interest in PTx Trimble. Ag was reported as a part of our Field Systems segment.
Upon closing of the transaction in the second quarter of 2024, we received $1.9 billion of cash proceeds from AGCO, subject to working capital adjustments. As a result, we deconsolidated $457.3 million of net assets, including $357.4 million of goodwill, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $1.7 billion. The gain included $275.6 million for our retained 15% ownership interest in PTx Trimble, which is reported as an equity method investment. The fair value of our equity method investment was determined by using a combination of the equity value, primarily based on the transaction price, and an option pricing model for a put and call option.
In addition to forming PTx Trimble, the parties concurrently entered into agreements that included the following:
- a seven-year renewable supply agreement (the “Supply Agreement”) through which we will provide key GNSS and guidance technologies to PTx Trimble for use in professional agriculture machines sold by AGCO, on an exclusive basis with limited exceptions;
-
a technology transfer and license agreement to govern the licensing of certain non-divested intellectual property and technology for use by PTx Trimble in the agriculture field and, upon expiration of the Supply Agreement, to govern fixed and variable royalty payments made to us by PTx Trimble;
-
a trademark license agreement to govern the licensing of certain Trimble trademarks for use by PTx Trimble in the agriculture field;
-
a master sale and distribution agreement through which PTx Trimble will serve as our channel partner for positioning services in the agriculture market; and
-
a transition services agreement to provide contract manufacturing services for the divested products for two years following the closing of the transaction.

| Thereafter | 800.0 | ||||
| Total | $ | 1,800.0 | |||
Senior Notes
All of our senior notes are unsecured obligations. Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually in June and December of each year, except for the interest on the 2033 senior notes payable in March and September. Additional details are unchanged from the information disclosed in Note 8 “Debt” of the 2023 Form 10-K.
Credit Facilities
2023 Term Loans
In 2023, we entered into two unsecured, variable-rate term loans comprised of a 3-year tranche for $500.0 million and a 5-year tranche for $500.0 million. In the second quarter of 2024, we repaid the term loans in full using a portion of the funds received in connection with the Ag divestiture.
2022 Credit Facility
In 2022, we entered into a five-year, unsecured, revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $1.25 billion. Subject to approval, we may increase the commitments for revolving loans by an aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million. The variable interest rate and commitment fees are based on our current long-term, senior unsecured debt ratings, our leverage ratio, and certain specified sustainability targets.
Uncommitted Facilities
At the end of the third quarter of 2024, we had two $75.0 million and one €100.0 million revolving credit facilities, which are uncommitted. Generally, these variable-rate, uncommitted facilities may be redeemed upon demand. Borrowings under uncommitted facilities are classified as short-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Covenants
The 2022 credit facility contains customary covenants, including, among other requirements, limitations that restrict our and our subsidiaries’ ability to create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions, and restrictions on the ability of the subsidiaries to incur indebtedness. The facility contains financial covenants that require the maintenance of maximum leverage and minimum interest coverage ratios, as well as the timely delivery of quarterly financial reports and compliance certificates. At the end of the third quarter of 2024, we were in compliance with our debt covenants under a waiver of the financial reporting covenants.
NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is measured by using observable or, to the extent necessary, unobservable inputs.
Financial instruments recorded at fair value include our deferred compensation plan. The fair value was $31.9 million and $31.2 million at the end of the third quarter of 2024 and the end of 2023, and is included in Other non-current assets and Other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value was measured by using quoted prices in active markets.
Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (debt) had an estimated fair value of $1.9 billion and $3.1 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2024 and the end of 2023. The fair value of the debt was determined based on observable market prices in less active markets. The fair values do not indicate the amount we would currently have to pay to extinguish the debt.
NOTE 10. DEFERRED REVENUE AND REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS
Deferred Revenue
Changes in our deferred revenue during the third quarter and the first three quarters of 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
| Third Quarter of | First Three Quarters of | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| (In millions) | 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Beginning balance of the period | $ | 813.6 | $ | 745.6 | $ | 761.4 | $ | 737.6 | |||||||||||||||

| Ending balance of the period | $ | 757.2 | $ | 692.6 | $ | 757.2 | $ | 692.6 |
Remaining Performance Obligations
At the end of the third quarter of 2024, approximately $1.5 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for which goods or services have not been delivered, primarily subscription, software, and software maintenance, and to a lesser extent, hardware and professional services contracts. We expect to recognize $1.1 billion or 71% of our remaining performance obligations as revenue during the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
The remaining performance obligations exclude $0.2 billion for the pending Mobility divestiture.
NOTE 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period plus additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, contingently issuable shares, and shares to be purchased under our employee stock purchase plan.
The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:
| Third Quarter of | First Three Quarters of | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| (In millions, except per share amounts) | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| Effect of dilutive securities | 1.3 | 1.1 | 1.5 | 1.1 | |||||||||||||||||||

| Basic earnings per share | $ | 0.17 | $ | 0.30 | $ | 5.76 | $ | 1.00 | |||||||||||||||
| Diluted earnings per share | $ | 0.16 | $ | 0.30 | $ | 5.73 | $ | 1.00 | |||||||||||||||
| Antidilutive weighted-average shares (1) | 1.8 | 1.3 | 1.8 | 1.7 |
(1) Antidilutive stock-based awards are excluded from the calculation of diluted shares and diluted earnings per share because their impact would increase diluted earnings per share.
NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES
For the third quarter, our effective income tax rate was 44.5%, as compared to 5.7% in the corresponding period in 2023, primarily due to certain disallowed losses related to the pending Mobility divestiture. For the first three quarters, our effective income tax rate was 25.9%, as compared to 16.5% in the prior year, primarily due to a geographic mix of gains from the Ag divestiture.
Unrecognized tax benefits of $59.9 million and $59.5 million at the end of the third quarter of 2024 and at the end of 2023, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. At the end of the third quarter of 2024 and at the end of 2023, we accrued interest and penalties of $12.4 million and $9.9 million.
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
At the end of the third quarter of 2024, we had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $500.9 million. These unconditional purchase obligations primarily represent (i) open non-cancellable purchase orders for material purchases with our inventory vendors, and (ii) various non-cancelable agreements with certain service providers with minimum or fixed commitments.
Litigation
From time to time, we are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business. There are no material legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party, or to which any of our or our subsidiaries’ property is subject.
