NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Overview
Cummins Inc. (“Cummins,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was founded in 1919 as Cummins Engine Company, a corporation in Columbus, Indiana, and one of the first diesel engine manufacturers. In 2001, we changed our name to Cummins Inc. We are a global power leader that designs, manufactures, distributes and services diesel, natural gas, electric and hybrid powertrains and powertrain-related components including filtration, aftertreatment, turbochargers, fuel systems, controls systems, air handling systems, automated transmissions, axles, drivelines, brakes, suspension systems, electric power generation systems, batteries, electrified power systems, electric powertrains, hydrogen production and fuel cell products. We sell our products to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), distributors, dealers and other customers worldwide. We serve our customers through a service network of approximately 500 wholly-owned, joint venture and independent distributor locations and more than 10,000 Cummins certified dealer locations in approximately 190 countries and territories.
Meritor Acquisition
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor, Inc. (Meritor) with a purchase price of $2.9 billion (including debt repaid concurrent with the acquisition). Our consolidated results and segment results include Meritor's activity since the date of acquisition. The results are included in our Components segment in the axles and brakes business while the electric powertrain portion is included in our New Power segment. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," for additional information.
Reporting Period
Beginning in 2022, we transitioned to a Gregorian calendar with our reporting period ending on the last day of the quarterly calendar period. In 2021 and prior, our reporting period ended on the Sunday closest to the last day of the quarterly calendar period. The third quarters of 2022 and 2021 ended on September 30 and October 3, respectively. Our fiscal year ends on December 31, regardless of the day of the week on which December 31 falls.
Interim Condensed Financial Statements
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements were condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations.
These interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Our interim period financial results for the three and nine month periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all required annual disclosures.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts for prior year periods were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
During the third quarter of 2022, we determined that a put right held by a minority shareholder in one of our subsidiaries, which became exercisable in September 2022, was incorrectly classified as noncontrolling interests (NCI) as opposed to mezzanine equity in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Because the put right was exercisable at fair value (as defined in the governing documents of the subsidiary), the NCI should have also been reflected at fair value at each balance sheet date with an offset to additional paid-in-capital (APIC). As a result, we have revised our historical financial statements to reflect the NCI at its estimated fair value as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with a corresponding offset in NCI and APIC. This error did not impact our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income or Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for any period. The amount reclassified from NCI and APIC was as follows:

See NOTE 14, "REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS," for further information regarding the put right. We have concluded the correction of this error does not have a material impact to our previously issued annual and interim consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements
Preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts presented and disclosed in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Significant estimates and assumptions in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements require the exercise of judgment. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be different from these estimates.

NOTE 2. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Long-term Contracts
The majority of our contracts are for a period of less than one year. We have certain long-term maintenance agreements, construction contracts and extended warranty coverage arrangements that span a period in excess of one year. The aggregate amount of the transaction price for long-term maintenance agreements and construction contracts allocated to performance obligations that were not satisfied as of September 30, 2022, was $695 million. We expect to recognize the related revenue of $125 million over the next 12 months and $570 million over periods up to 10 years. See NOTE 12, "PRODUCT WARRANTY LIABILITY," for additional disclosures on extended warranty coverage arrangements. Our other contracts generally are for a duration of less than one year, include payment terms that correspond to the timing of costs incurred when providing goods and services to our customers or represent sales-based royalties.
The following is a summary of our unbilled and deferred revenue and related activity:

Power Systems segment external sales by product line were as follows:
On March 17, 2022, the Board of Directors (the Board) decided to indefinitely suspend our operations in Russia due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. At the time of suspension, our Russian operations included a wholly-owned distributor in Russia, an unconsolidated joint venture (the Unconsolidated JV) with KAMAZ Publicly Traded Company (KAMAZ), a Russian truck manufacturer, and direct sales into Russia from our other business segments. As a result of the suspension of operations, we evaluated the recoverability of assets in Russia and assessed other potential liabilities. We experienced and expect to continue to experience an inability to collect customer receivables and may be the subject of litigation as a consequence of our suspension of commercial operations in Russia. We recorded a charge of $158 million in the first quarter related to these actions. In the second quarter, we recovered certain inventory and other expense amounts reserved in the first quarter and incurred some small additional charges resulting in a net recovery of $47 million. In the third quarter, we incurred $4 million of additional contract termination charges, and we recovered certain bad debt expenses and inventory amounts reserved in the first quarter for a net charge of $1 million. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $13 million of inventory and $15 million of receivables in Russia, all of which are fully reserved. In addition, we have cash balances of $71 million, some of which will be used to fund ongoing employee, tax and contract settlement obligations. The following summarizes the costs (recoveries) associated with the suspension of our Russian operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income:

NOTE 4. PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
We sponsor funded and unfunded domestic and foreign defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans. Prior to the acquisition, Meritor provided a range of benefits to its employees and retirees, including pension benefits and postretirement healthcare benefits. As part of the acquisition, we assumed the assets and liabilities associated with these plans. Accordingly, on August 3, 2022, we recorded assets of $147 million and liabilities of $105 million on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to Meritor's postretirement benefit plans.
Contributions to these plans were as follows:

These contributions may be made from trusts or company funds either to increase pension assets or to make direct benefit payments to plan participants. We expect our 2022 annual net periodic pension cost to approximate $20 million.

In addition, on February 7, 2022, we purchased Westport Fuel System Inc.'s stake in Cummins Westport Joint Venture. See NOTE 3, "RUSSIAN OPERATIONS," and NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were 32.7 percent and 24.6 percent, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2021, were 19.9 percent and 21.1 percent, respectively.
The three months ended September 30, 2022, contained unfavorable discrete tax items of $57 million, primarily due to $51 million of unfavorable tax costs associated with internal restructuring ahead of the planned separation of our filtration business and $10 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $4 million of net favorable other discrete tax items.
The nine months ended September 30, 2022, contained unfavorable net discrete tax items of $52 million, primarily due to $69 million of unfavorable tax costs associated with internal restructuring ahead of the planned separation of our filtration business and $10 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $27 million of favorable changes in tax reserves.
The three months ended October 3, 2021, contained favorable discrete items of $11 million, primarily due to a $16 million favorable release of tax reserves associated with the settlement of tax positions, partially offset by $5 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments.
The nine months ended October 3, 2021, contained favorable discrete items of $8 million, primarily due to an $18 million favorable release of tax reserves associated with the settlement of tax positions, partially offset by $10 million of unfavorable statutory changes in tax rates (mostly in the U.K.).

All debt securities are classified as available-for-sale. All marketable securities presented use a Level 2 fair value measure. The fair value of Level 2 securities is estimated using actively quoted prices for similar instruments from brokers and observable inputs where available, including market transactions and third-party pricing services, or net asset values provided to investors. We do not currently have any Level 3 securities, and there were no transfers between Level 2 or 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, or the year ended December 31, 2021.
A description of the valuation techniques and inputs used for our Level 2 fair value measures is as follows:
•Certificates of deposit — These investments provide us with a contractual rate of return and generally range in maturity from three months to five years. The counterparties to these investments are reputable financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Since these instruments are not tradable and must be settled directly by us with the respective financial institution, our fair value measure is the financial institution's month-end statement.
•Debt mutual funds — The fair value measures for the vast majority of these investments are the daily net asset values published on a regulated governmental website. Daily quoted prices are available from the issuing brokerage and are used on a test basis to corroborate this Level 2 input measure.
•Equity mutual funds — The fair value measures for these investments are the net asset values published by the issuing brokerage. Daily quoted prices are available from reputable third-party pricing services and are used on a test basis to corroborate this Level 2 input measure.
•Debt securities — The fair value measures for these securities are broker quotes received from reputable firms. These securities are infrequently traded on a national exchange and these values are used on a test basis to corroborate our Level 2 input measure.

(1) Loans payable consist primarily of notes payable to various domestic and international financial institutions. It is not practicable to aggregate these notes and calculate a quarterly weighted-average interest rate.
(2) The weighted-average interest rate, inclusive of all brokerage fees, was 2.82 percent at September 30, 2022. This included $97 million of borrowings under the Europe program at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.87 percent and $2,296 million of borrowings under the U.S. program at a weighted-average interest rate of 2.91 percent.
(3) Additional commercial paper borrowings were primarily used for the Meritor acquisition. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," for additional information.
(4) The weighted-average interest rate, inclusive of all brokerage fees, was negative 0.01 percent at December 31, 2021. This included $113 million of borrowings under the Europe program that were at a negative weighted-average interest rate of 0.39 percent and $200 million of borrowings under the U.S. program at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.21 percent.
We can issue up to $4.0 billion of unsecured, short-term promissory notes (commercial paper) pursuant to the Board authorized commercial paper programs. These programs facilitate the private placement of unsecured short-term debt through third-party brokers. We use the net proceeds from the commercial paper borrowings for acquisitions and general corporate purposes.
Revolving Credit Facilities
On August 17, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated 364-day credit agreement, which allows us to borrow up to $1.5 billion of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 16, 2023. This credit agreement amended and restated the prior $1.5 billion 364-day credit facility that matured on August 17, 2022.
On August 17, 2022, we also entered into an incremental 364-day credit agreement, which allows us to borrow up to $500 million of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 16, 2023.
We have access to committed credit facilities totaling $4.0 billion, including the $1.5 billion 364-day facility that expires August 16, 2023, $500 million incremental 364-day facility that expires August 16, 2023, and our $2.0 billion five-year facility that expires on August 18, 2026. We intend to maintain credit facilities at the current or higher aggregate amounts by renewing or replacing these facilities at or before expiration. These revolving credit facilities are maintained primarily to provide backup liquidity for our commercial paper borrowings and general corporate purposes. There were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. At September 30, 2022, the $2,393 million of outstanding commercial paper effectively reduced the $4.0 billion of revolving credit capacity to $1.6 billion.
At September 30, 2022, we also had an additional $230 million available for borrowings under our international and other domestic credit facilities.

(1) In 2021, we entered into a series of interest rate swaps to effectively convert from a fixed rate to floating rate. See "Interest Rate Risk" below for additional information.
(2) The effective interest rate is 7.48 percent.
On July 13, 2022, we entered into a loan agreement under which we may obtain delayed-draw loans in an amount up to $2.0 billion in the aggregate prior to October 13, 2022. We drew down the entire $2.0 billion balance on August 2, 2022, to help fund the acquisition of Meritor. The interest rate is based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) for the one-month interest period plus the relevant spread. The loan will mature on August 1, 2025. The agreement contains customary events of default and financial and other covenants, including maintaining a net debt to capital ratio of no more than 0.65 to 1.0.

Shelf Registration
As a well-known seasoned issuer, we filed an automatic shelf registration of an undetermined amount of debt and equity with the SEC on February 8, 2022. Under this shelf registration we may offer, from time to time, debt securities, common stock, preferred and preference stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units.
Filtration Contingent Debt Agreement
On September 30, 2022, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a $1.0 billion credit agreement (Credit Agreement), consisting of a $400 million revolving credit facility and a $600 million term loan facility (Facilities), in anticipation of the separation of our filtration business. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will not become available under the Credit Agreement unless and until, among other things, there is a sale to the public of shares in our subsidiary that holds the filtration business (Parent Borrower). The Credit Agreement will automatically terminate if no such public sale of shares of Parent Borrower occurs on or prior to March 30, 2023. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement would be available to Parent Borrower and one or more of its subsidiaries (Borrower). If borrowings become available under the Credit Agreement, the Facilities would mature on September 30, 2027.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement would bear interest at varying rates, depending on the type of loan and, in some cases, the rates of designated benchmarks and the applicable Borrower’s election. Generally, U.S. dollar-denominated loans would bear interest at adjusted term SOFR (which includes a 0.10 percent credit spread adjustment to term SOFR) for the applicable interest period plus a rate ranging from 1.125 percent to 1.75 percent depending on Parent Borrower's net leverage ratio.

Engine System Campaign Accrual
During 2017, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) selected certain of our pre-2013 model year engine systems for additional emissions testing. Some of these engine systems failed CARB and EPA tests as a result of degradation of an aftertreatment component. In the second quarter of 2018, we reached agreement with the CARB and EPA regarding our plans to address the affected populations. From the fourth quarter of 2017 through the second quarter of 2018, we recorded charges for the expected costs of field campaigns to repair these engine systems.
The campaigns launched in the third quarter of 2018 are being completed in phases across the affected population. The total engine system campaign charge, excluding supplier recoveries, was $410 million. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded an additional
$20 million charge related to this campaign, as a change in estimate, to bring the total campaign, excluding supplier recoveries, to $430 million. At September 30, 2022, the remaining accrual balance was $54 million.
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
We are subject to numerous lawsuits and claims arising out of the ordinary course of our business, including actions related to product liability; personal injury; the use and performance of our products; warranty matters; product recalls; patent, trademark or other intellectual property infringement; contractual liability; the conduct of our business; tax reporting in foreign jurisdictions; distributor termination; workplace safety; environmental matters; and asbestos claims. We also have been identified as a potentially responsible party at multiple waste disposal sites under U.S. federal and related state environmental statutes and regulations and may have joint and several liability for any investigation and remediation costs incurred with respect to such sites. We have denied liability with respect to many of these lawsuits, claims and proceedings and are vigorously defending such lawsuits, claims and proceedings. We carry various forms of commercial, property and casualty, product liability and other forms of insurance; however, such insurance may not be applicable or adequate to cover the costs associated with a judgment against us with respect to these lawsuits, claims and proceedings. We do not believe that these lawsuits are material individually or in the aggregate. While we believe we have also established adequate accruals for our expected future liability with respect to pending lawsuits, claims and proceedings, where the nature and extent of any such liability can be reasonably estimated based upon then presently available information, there can be no assurance that the final resolution of any existing or future lawsuits, claims or proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
We conduct significant business operations in Brazil that are subject to the Brazilian federal, state and local labor, social security, tax and customs laws. While we believe we comply with such laws, they are complex, subject to varying interpretations and we are often engaged in litigation regarding the application of these laws to particular circumstances.
On June 28, 2022, KAMAZ was designated to the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. We filed blocked property reports for relevant assets and are seeking relevant authorizations to extricate ourselves from our relationship with KAMAZ and its subsidiaries, including the Unconsolidated JV, in compliance with U.S. law.
On April 29, 2019, we announced that we were conducting a formal internal review of our emissions certification process and compliance with emission standards for our pick-up truck applications, following conversations with the EPA and CARB regarding certification of our engines in model year 2019 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks. This review is being conducted with external advisors as we strive to ensure the certification and compliance processes for all of our pick-up truck applications are consistent with our internal policies, engineering standards and applicable laws. During conversations with the EPA and CARB about the effectiveness of our pick-up truck applications, the regulators raised concerns that certain aspects of our emissions systems may reduce the effectiveness of our emissions control systems and thereby act as defeat devices. As a result, our internal review focuses, in part, on the regulators’ concerns. We are working closely with the regulators to enhance our emissions systems to improve the effectiveness of all of our pick-up truck applications and to fully address the regulators’ requirements. Based on discussions with the regulators, we have developed a new calibration for the engines in model year 2019 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks that has been included in all engines shipped since September 2019. During our ongoing discussions, the regulators turned their attention to other model years and other engines, most notably our pick-up truck applications for RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks for model years 2013 through 2018 and Titan trucks for model years 2016 through 2019. In connection with these and other ongoing discussions with the EPA and CARB, we are developing a new software calibration and will recall model years 2013 through 2018 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks. We accrued $30 million for the RAM recall during the first quarter of 2022, an amount that reflected our current estimate of the cost of that recall. We are also developing a new software calibration and hardware fix and will recall model years 2016 through 2019 Titan trucks. We accrued $29 million for the Titan recall during the third quarter of 2022, an amount that reflected our current estimate of the cost of that recall.
We will continue to work together closely with the relevant regulators to develop and implement recommendations for improvement and seek to reach further resolutions as part of our ongoing commitment to compliance. Due to the presence of many unknown facts and circumstances, we are not yet able to estimate any further financial impact of these matters. It is possible that the consequences resulting from our formal review and these regulatory processes could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows.
Guarantees and Commitments
Periodically, we enter into guarantee arrangements, including guarantees of non-U.S. distributor financings, residual value guarantees on equipment under operating leases and other miscellaneous guarantees of joint ventures or third-party obligations. At September 30, 2022, the maximum potential loss related to these guarantees was $48 million.
We have arrangements with certain suppliers that require us to purchase minimum volumes or be subject to monetary penalties. At September 30, 2022, if we were to stop purchasing from each of these suppliers, the aggregate amount of the penalty would be approximately $138 million. These arrangements enable us to secure supplies of critical components and IT services. We do not currently anticipate paying any penalties under these contracts.
We enter into physical forward contracts with suppliers of platinum and palladium to purchase certain volumes of the commodities at contractually stated prices for various periods, which generally fall within two years. At September 30, 2022, the total commitments under these contracts were $42 million. These arrangements enable us to guarantee the prices of these commodities, which otherwise are subject to market volatility.
We have guarantees with certain customers that require us to satisfactorily honor contractual or regulatory obligations, or compensate for monetary losses related to nonperformance. These performance bonds and other performance-related guarantees were $118 million at September 30, 2022.
Indemnifications
Periodically, we enter into various contractual arrangements where we agree to indemnify a third-party against certain types of losses. Common types of indemnities include:
•product liability and license, patent or trademark indemnifications;
•asset sale agreements where we agree to indemnify the purchaser against future environmental exposures related to the asset sold; and
•any contractual agreement where we agree to indemnify the counterparty for losses suffered as a result of a misrepresentation in the contract.
We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnities and accrue for expected losses that are probable. Because the indemnifications are not related to specified known liabilities and due to their uncertain nature, we are unable to estimate the maximum amount of the potential loss associated with these indemnifications.
Accounts Receivable Factoring
We assumed an accounts receivable factoring program from the acquisition of Meritor for trade receivables as follows:

(4) There is no explicit facility size under the agreement, but the counterparty approves the purchase of receivable tranches as its discretion.
We received $108 million of proceeds from receivables sold, and costs associated with all of the off-balance sheet arrangements described above were $1 million since the August 3, 2022, acquisition date.
A 19 percent minority shareholder in one of our businesses, Hydrogenics Corporation (Hydrogenics), has, among other rights and subject to related obligations and restrictive covenants, rights that are exercisable between September 2022 and September 2026 to require us to (1) purchase such shareholder's shares (Put Option) at an amount up to the fair market value (calculated pursuant to a process outlined in the shareholders' agreement) and (2) sell to such shareholder Hydrogenics' electrolyzer business at an amount up to the fair market value of the electrolyzer business (calculated pursuant to a process outlined in the shareholders’ agreement). We recorded the estimated fair value of the Put Option as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements with an offset to additional paid-in capital. At September 30, 2022, the redeemable noncontrolling interest balance was $252 million.

(1) The newly consolidated entities were accounted for as business combinations. On the date of acquisition, Meritor, Inc. was included in the Components and New Power segments, Jacobs Vehicle Systems was included in the Components segment and Cummins Westport Joint Venture was included in the Engine segment.
(2) Intangible assets acquired in the business combination were mostly technology and customer related.
Meritor, Inc.
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor whereby we paid $36.50 per share for each outstanding share of Meritor, a global leader of drivetrain, mobility, braking, aftermarket and electric powertrain solutions for commercial vehicle and industrial markets. The total purchase price, including debt that was retired on the closing date of $248 million, was $2.9 billion. In addition, we assumed $1.0 billion of additional debt, of which $0.9 billion was retired prior to the end of the third quarter. The acquisition was funded with a combination of $2.0 billion in new debt (see NOTE 11, "DEBT" for additional details), cash on hand and additional commercial paper borrowings. The integration of Meritor’s people, technology and capabilities position us as one of the few companies able to provide integrated powertrain solutions across combustion and electric power applications at a time when demand for decarbonized solutions is continuing to accelerate. The majority of this business will be included within our Components segment with the exception of the electric powertrain business, which will be included in our New Power segment. The values assigned to individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary based on management’s current best estimate and subject to change as certain matters are finalized. The primary areas that are preliminary include, but are not limited to, valuation of intangibles, legal and other contingent liabilities and deferred taxes. The preliminary purchase price allocation was as follows:

Annual amortization of the intangible assets for the next five years is expected to approximate $142 million per year.
Goodwill was determined based on the residual difference between the fair value of consideration transferred and the value assigned to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. Goodwill was allocated to the Components segment ($691 million) and the New Power segment ($159 million) based on the relative value of those businesses compared to the assets and liabilities assigned to them. We do not expect any of the goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes. Among the factors contributing to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of goodwill are Meritor’s expected future customers, new versions of technologies, an acquired workforce, other economic benefits that are anticipated to arise from future product sales and operational synergies from combining the business with Cummins.
Included in our third quarter results were revenues of $737 million and net loss of $37 million related to this business. In addition, on a year-to-date basis we have incurred acquisition related costs of $30 million included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income.
The following table presents the supplemental consolidated results of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and October 3, 2021, on an unaudited pro-forma basis as if the acquisition had been consummated on January 1, 2021. The primary adjustments reflected in the pro-forma results related to (1) increase in interest expense for debt used to fund the acquisition, (2) removal of acquisition related costs from 2022 (and included in 2021) and (3) changes related to purchase accounting primarily related to amortization of intangibles, fixed assets and joint ventures. The unaudited pro forma financial information presented below does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that Cummins and Meritor would have achieved had the companies been combined during the periods presented and was not intended to project the future results of operations that the combined company could achieve after the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect any potential cost savings, operating efficiencies, long-term debt pay down estimates, financial synergies or other strategic benefits as a result of the acquisition or any restructuring costs to achieve those benefits.

The Meritor acquisition increased net assets in the Components segment by $3.8 billion and New Power segment by $0.3 billion.
Jacobs Vehicle Systems
On April 8, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Jacobs Vehicle Systems business (Jacobs) from Altra Industrial Motion Corp. The purchase price was $346 million in cash, subject to typical adjustments related to closing working capital and other amounts and does not contain any contingent consideration. Jacobs is a supplier of engine braking, cylinder deactivation and start and stop thermal management technologies. The acquisition furthers our investment in key technologies and capabilities to drive growth, while securing our supply base.

Goodwill was determined based on the residual difference between the fair value of consideration transferred and the value assigned to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. Approximately $9 million of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. Among the factors contributing to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of goodwill are Jacob’s expected future customers, new versions of technologies, an acquired workforce and other economic benefits that are anticipated to arise from future product sales and operational synergies from combining the business with Cummins.
Included in our results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were revenues of $43 million and $80 million, respectively, and loss of $2 million and break-even, respectively, related to this business. The results of this business were reported in our Components segment. Pro forma financial information for the acquisition was not presented as the effects are not material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Cummins Westport Joint Venture
On February 7, 2022, we purchased Westport Fuel System Inc.'s stake in the Cummins Westport Joint Venture. We will continue to operate the business as the sole owner. The purchase price was $42 million and was allocated primarily to cash, warranty and deferred revenue related to extended coverage contracts. The results of the business were reported in our Engine segment. Pro forma financial information for the acquisition was not presented as the effects are not material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Pending Acquisition
Prior to our acquisition of Meritor, Meritor signed an agreement with Siemens to purchase its Commercial Vehicles business for approximately €190 million, subject to working capital and other customary adjustments. This business develops, designs and produces electric drive systems including electric motors, inverters, software and related services for the transit, off-highway and specialty markets. We expect the acquisition to close in the fourth quarter of 2022. This acquisition will be included in our New Power segment.
Operating segments under GAAP are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.
Our reportable operating segments consist of Engine, Distribution, Components, Power Systems and New Power. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves. The Engine segment produces engines (15 liters and smaller) and associated parts for sale to customers in on-highway and various off-highway markets. Our engines are used in trucks of all sizes, buses and recreational vehicles, as well as in various industrial applications, including construction, agriculture, power generation systems and other off-highway applications. The Distribution segment includes wholly-owned and partially-owned distributorships engaged in wholesaling engines, generator sets and service parts, as well as performing service and repair activities on our products and maintaining relationships with various OEMs throughout the world. The Components segment sells filtration products, aftertreatment systems, turbochargers, electronics, fuel systems, automated transmissions, axles, drivelines, brakes and suspension systems. The Power Systems segment is an integrated power provider, which designs, manufactures and sells engines (16 liters and larger) for industrial applications (including mining, oil and gas, marine and rail), standby and prime power generator sets, alternators and other power components. The New Power segment designs, manufactures, sells and supports hydrogen production solutions as well as electrified power systems with innovative components and subsystems, including battery, fuel cell and electric powertrain technologies. The New Power segment is currently in the early stages of commercializing these technologies with efforts primarily focused on the development of our electroloyzers for hydrogen production and electrified power systems and related components and subsystems. We continue to serve all our markets as they adopt electrification and alternative power technologies, meeting the needs of our OEM partners and end customers.
We use segment earnings or losses before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests (EBITDA) as the primary basis for the CODM to evaluate the performance of each of our reportable operating segments. We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. Segment amounts exclude certain expenses not specifically identifiable to segments.
The accounting policies of our operating segments are the same as those applied in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We prepared the financial results of our operating segments on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which we internally disaggregate financial information to assist in making internal operating decisions. We allocate certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments differently than we would for stand-alone financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These include certain costs and expenses of shared services, such as information technology, human resources, legal, finance and supply chain management. We do not allocate gains or losses of corporate owned life insurance and certain filtration separation costs to individual segments. EBITDA may not be consistent with measures used by other companies.

NOTE 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In October 2022, we signed an agreement to purchase all of the equity ownership interest of Teksid Hierro de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (Teksid MX) and Teksid, Inc. from Stellantis N.V. for approximately €115 million, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the agreement. Teksid MX operates a cast iron foundry located in Monclova, Mexico, which primarily forges blocks and heads used in Cummins and other manufacturers’ engines. Teksid, Inc. facilitates the commercialization of Teksid MX products in North America. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions and receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, is expected to close as soon as December 2022. Since Cummins is the primary customer of the foundry, the acquisition is not expected to result in material incremental sales to our business. This business will be included in our Engine segment.

We are a global power leader that designs, manufactures, distributes and services diesel, natural gas, electric and hybrid powertrains and powertrain-related components including filtration, aftertreatment, turbochargers, fuel systems, controls systems, air handling systems, automated transmissions, axles, drivelines, brakes, suspension systems, electric power generation systems, batteries, electrified power systems, electric powertrains, hydrogen production and fuel cell products. We sell our products to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), distributors, dealers and other customers worldwide. We have long-standing relationships with many of the leading manufacturers in the markets we serve, including PACCAR Inc, Traton Group (formerly Navistar International Corporation), Daimler Trucks North America and Stellantis N.V. We serve our customers through a service network of approximately 500 wholly-owned, joint venture and independent distributor locations and more than 10,000 Cummins certified dealer locations in approximately 190 countries and territories.
Our reportable operating segments consist of Engine, Distribution, Components, Power Systems and New Power. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves. The Engine segment produces engines (15 liters and smaller) and associated parts for sale to customers in on-highway and various off-highway markets. Our engines are used in trucks of all sizes, buses and recreational vehicles, as well as in various industrial applications, including construction, agriculture, power generation systems and other off-highway applications. The Distribution segment includes wholly-owned and partially-owned distributorships engaged in wholesaling engines, generator sets and service parts, as well as performing service and repair activities on our products and maintaining relationships with various OEMs throughout the world. The Components segment sells filtration products, aftertreatment systems, turbochargers, electronics, fuel systems, automated transmissions, axles, drivelines, brakes and suspension systems. The Power Systems segment is an integrated power provider, which designs, manufactures and sells engines (16 liters and larger) for industrial applications (including mining, oil and gas, marine and rail), standby and prime power generator sets, alternators and other power components. The New Power segment designs, manufactures, sells and supports hydrogen production solutions as well as electrified power systems with innovative components and subsystems, including battery, fuel cell and electric powertrain technologies. The New Power segment is currently in the early stages of commercializing these technologies with efforts primarily focused on the development of our electroloyzers for hydrogen production and electrified power systems and related components and subsystems. We continue to serve all our markets as they adopt electrification and alternative power technologies, meeting the needs of our OEM partners and end customers.
Our financial performance depends, in large part, on varying conditions in the markets we serve, particularly the on-highway, construction and general industrial markets. Demand in these markets tends to fluctuate in response to overall economic conditions. Our sales may also be impacted by OEM inventory levels, production schedules, stoppages and supply chain challenges. Economic downturns in markets we serve generally result in reduced sales of our products and can result in price reductions in certain products and/or markets. As a worldwide business, our operations are also affected by geopolitical risks (such as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine), currency, political, economic, public health crises, epidemics or pandemics and regulatory matters, including adoption and enforcement of environmental and emission standards, in the countries we serve. As part of our growth strategy, we invest in businesses in certain countries that carry higher levels of these risks such as China, Brazil, India, Mexico and countries in the Middle East and Africa. At the same time, our geographic diversity and broad product and service offerings have helped limit the impact from a drop in demand in any one industry or customer or the economy of any single country on our consolidated results.
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor, Inc. (Meritor) with a purchase price of $2.9 billion (including debt repaid concurrent with the acquisition). Our consolidated results and segment results include Meritor's activity since the date of acquisition. The results are included in our Components segment in the axles and brakes business while the electric powertrain portion is included in our New Power segment. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Russian Operations
On March 17, 2022, the Board of Directors (the Board) decided to indefinitely suspend our operations in Russia due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. At the time of suspension, our Russian operations included a wholly-owned distributor in Russia, an unconsolidated joint venture (the Unconsolidated JV) with KAMAZ Publicly Traded Company (KAMAZ), a Russian truck manufacturer, and direct sales into Russia from our other business segments. As a result of the suspension of operations, we evaluated the recoverability of assets in Russia and assessed other potential liabilities. We experienced and expect to continue to experience an inability to collect customer receivables and may be the subject of litigation as a consequence of our suspension of commercial operations in Russia. We recorded a charge of $158 million in the first quarter related to these actions. In the second quarter, we recovered certain inventory and other expense amounts reserved in the first quarter and incurred some small additional charges resulting in a net recovery of $47 million. In the third quarter, we incurred $4 million of additional contract termination charges, and we recovered certain bad debt expenses and inventory amounts reserved in the first quarter for a net charge of $1 million. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $13 million of inventory and $15 million of receivables in Russia, all of which are fully reserved. In addition, we have cash balances of $71 million, some of which will be used to fund ongoing employee, tax and contract settlement obligations. The following summarizes the costs (recoveries) associated with the suspension of our Russian operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income:

We will continue to evaluate the situation as conditions evolve and may take additional actions as deemed necessary in future periods.
Supply Chain Disruptions
We continue to experience supply chain disruptions and related financial impacts reflected as increased cost of sales. Our industry continues to be unfavorably impacted by supply chain constraints leading to shortages across multiple components categories and limiting our collective ability to meet end-user demand. Our customers are also experiencing supply chain issues. Should the supply chain issues continue for an extended period of time or worsen, the impact on our production and supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The Board continues to monitor and evaluate all of these factors and the related impacts on our business and operations, and we are diligently working to minimize the supply chain impacts to our business and to our customers.

Our industry's sales continue to be unfavorably impacted by supply chain constraints leading to shortages across multiple components categories and limiting our collective ability to meet end-user demand. Our customers are also experiencing other supply chain issues limiting full production capabilities.
Worldwide revenues increased 23 percent in the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021, due to Meritor sales of $737 million since the date of acquisition, favorable pricing and higher demand in all operating segments and most geographic regions except for Russia and China. Net sales in the U.S. and Canada improved 29 percent, primarily due to incremental sales of brakes and axles in North America since the acquisition of Meritor in addition to favorable pricing and increased demand in North American on-highway markets, which positively impacted most components businesses, and all distribution product lines. International demand (excludes the U.S. and Canada) improved 15 percent, with lower sales in Russia (due to suspension of our Russian operations) and China (due to a slowdown in construction markets, exacerbated by COVID lockdowns) more than offset by higher sales in most other geographic regions. The increase in international sales was principally due to incremental sales of brakes and axles in Western Europe and Latin America since the acquisition of Meritor. Unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations impacted international sales by 7 percent (primarily the Euro, British pound, Chinese renminbi and Indian rupee).
Worldwide revenues increased 12 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021, due to Meritor sales of $737 million since the date of acquisition, favorable pricing and higher demand in most operating segments and most geographic regions except for China and Russia. Net sales in the U.S. and Canada improved 19 percent, primarily due to favorable pricing and increased demand in North American on-highway markets, which positively impacted all components businesses, and all distribution product lines, as well as incremental sales of brakes and axles in North America since the acquisition of Meritor. International demand (excludes the U.S. and Canada) improved by 3 percent, with lower sales in China (due to a sharp slowdown in truck and construction markets, exacerbated by COVID lockdowns) more than offset by higher sales in most other geographic regions. The increase in international sales was principally due to incremental sales of brakes and axles in Western Europe and Latin America since the acquisition of Meritor, favorable pricing and higher demand for power generation and industrial equipment (especially oil and gas) and most distribution product lines. Unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations impacted international sales by 4 percent (primarily the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee).

(1) EBITDA includes $45 million of costs related to the acquisition and integration of Meritor, $16 million of costs associated with the planned separation of our Filtration business and $1 million of costs associated with the suspension of our Russian operations.
Net income attributable to Cummins Inc. was $0.4 billion, or $2.82 per diluted share, on sales of $7.3 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable prior year period net income attributable to Cummins Inc. of $0.53 billion, or $3.69 per diluted share, on sales of $6.0 billion. The decreases in net income attributable to Cummins Inc. and earnings per diluted share were driven by unfavorable discrete tax items, Meritor acquisition and integration costs, one-time employee recognition expenses, higher interest expense related to new borrowings, losses in corporate owned life insurance, lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees (principally in China) and a higher effective tax rate, partially offset by higher net sales and lower variable compensation. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to favorable pricing, higher volumes and lower variable compensation expenses, partially offset by higher material costs, increased freight costs and one-time employee recognition expenses. The 1.3 percentage point decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net sales was principally due to the addition of Meritor activity since the date of acquisition which had a lower gross margin percentage than our legacy business.

"NM" - not meaningful information
(1) EBITDA includes $112 million of costs associated with the suspension of our Russian operations, $62 million of costs associated with the planned separation of our Filtration business and $56 million of costs related to the acquisition and integration of Meritor.
Net income attributable to Cummins Inc. was $1.52 billion, or $10.68 per diluted share, on sales of $20.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable prior year period net income attributable to Cummins Inc. of $1.74 billion, or $11.86 per diluted share, on sales of $18.2 billion. The decreases in net income attributable to Cummins Inc. and earnings per diluted share were driven by lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees (primarily in China), losses in corporate owned life insurance, costs associated with the suspension of our Russian operations, costs associated with the planned separation of our filtration business, Meritor acquisition and integration costs, one-time employee recognition expenses, unfavorable discrete tax items, higher consulting expenses and increased interest expense related to new borrowings, partially offset by higher net sales and increased gross margin. See NOTE 3, "RUSSIAN OPERATIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to favorable pricing, increased volumes and lower variable compensation expenses, partially offset by higher material costs, increased freight costs due to supply chain constraints and one-time employee recognition expenses. Diluted earnings per common share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, benefited $0.10 from fewer weighted-average shares outstanding due to the stock repurchase program.
We generated $1.15 billion of cash from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.52 billion for the comparable period in 2021. See the section titled "Cash Flows" in the "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES" section for a discussion of items impacting cash flows.
Our debt to capital ratio (total capital defined as debt plus equity) at September 30, 2022, was 46.4 percent, compared to 31.5 percent at December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher debt balances since December 31, 2021, resulting from funding the acquisition of Meritor, Inc. (Meritor). At September 30, 2022, we had $3.0 billion in cash and marketable securities on hand and access to our $4.0 billion credit facilities, if necessary, to meet acquisition, working capital, investment and funding needs.
In the first nine months of 2022, we purchased $370 million, or 1.9 million shares, of our common stock.
On September 30, 2022, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a $1.0 billion credit agreement, consisting of a $400 million revolving credit facility and a $600 million term loan facility, in anticipation of the separation of our filtration business. See NOTE 11, "DEBT," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
On August 17, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated 364-day credit agreement and an incremental 364-day credit agreement, which allow us to borrow up to $1.5 billion and $500 million, respectively, of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 16, 2023.
On July 13, 2022, we entered into a loan agreement under which we may obtain delayed-draw loans in an amount up to $2.0 billion in the aggregate prior to October 13, 2022. We drew down the entire $2.0 billion balance on August 2, 2022, to fund the acquisition of Meritor.
In July 2022, the Board authorized an increase to our quarterly dividend of approximately 8 percent from $1.45 per share to $1.57 per share.
In the first nine months of 2022, the investment loss on our U.S. pension trust was 5.1 percent while our U.K. pension trust loss was 21.7 percent. We anticipate making additional defined benefit pension contributions during the remainder of 2022 of $7 million for our U.S. and U.K. qualified and non-qualified pension plans. We expect our 2022 annual net periodic pension cost to approximate $20 million.
As of the date of this filing, our credit ratings and outlooks from the credit rating agencies remain unchanged.

Meritor Acquisition
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor. Our results of operations include all activity of Meritor since the acquisition date.
Net Sales
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $1,365 millionversus the comparable period in 2021. The primary drivers were as follows:
•Components segment sales increased 51 percent largely due to axles and brakes sales since the completion of the Meritor acquisition.
•Distribution segment sales increased 14 percent principally due to higher demand across most product lines in North America.
•Engine segment sales increased 8 percent due to favorable pricing and stronger on-highway demand (including higher aftermarket sales) in North America.
•Power Systems segment sales increased 16 percent primarily due to favorable pricing and higher demand in power generation markets and stronger demand in industrial markets with higher aftermarket sales and increased oil and gas demand in North America.
These increases were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of 3 percent of total sales, primarily in the Euro, British pound, Chinese renminbi and Indian rupee.
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased $2,133 millionversus the comparable period in 2021. The primary drivers were as follows:
•Distribution segment sales increased 16 percent principally due to higher demand across most product lines in North America.
•Engine segment sales increased 10 percent due to favorable pricing and stronger on-highway demand (including higher aftermarket sales) in North America.
•Components segment sales increased 12 percent largely due to axles and brakes sales since the completion of the Meritor acquisition.
•Power Systems segment sales increased 12 percent primarily due to stronger demand in industrial markets with higher aftermarket sales and increased oil and gas demand in North America and China and favorable pricing and higher demand in power generation markets in Latin America, India and China.
These increases were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of 2 percent of total sales, primarily in the Euro, British pound and Indian rupee.
Sales to international markets (excluding the U.S. and Canada), based on location of customers, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were 40 percent and 40 percent of total net sales compared with 43 percent and 44 percent of total net sales for the comparable periods in 2021. A more detailed discussion of sales by segment is presented in the “OPERATING SEGMENT RESULTS” section.
Cost of Sales
The types of expenses included in cost of sales are the following: parts and material consumption, including direct and indirect materials; salaries, wages and benefits; depreciation on production equipment and facilities and amortization of technology intangibles; estimated costs of warranty programs and campaigns; production utilities; production-related purchasing; warehousing, including receiving and inspection; freight costs; engineering support costs; repairs and maintenance; production and warehousing facility property insurance; rent for production facilities; charges for the write-downs of inventories in Russia and other production overhead.
Gross Margin
Gross margin increased $228 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and decreased 1.3 points as a percentage of net sales versus the comparable period in 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to favorable pricing, higher volumes and lower variable compensation expenses, partially offset by higher material costs, increased freight costs and one-time employee recognition expenses. The 1.3 percentage point decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net sales was principally due to the addition of Meritor activity since the date of acquisition which had a lower gross margin percentage than our legacy business.
Gross margin increased $522 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and remained flat at 24.1 points as a percentage of sales versus the comparable period in 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to favorable pricing, increased volumes and lower variable compensation expenses, partially offset by higher material costs, increased freight costs due to supply chain constraints and one-time employee recognition expenses.
The provision for base warranties issued as a percent of sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was 1.7 percent and 1.9 percent, respectively, compared to 2.2 percent and 2.4 percent for the comparable periods in 2021.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $137 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to Meritor acquisition and integration costs, higher consulting expenses driven by acquisitions and the work towards separation of the filtration business, increased travel expenses and one-time employee recognition expenses, partially offset by lower variable compensation expenses. Overall, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 9.7 percent in the three months ended September 30, 2022, from 9.6 percent in the comparable period in 2021.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $200 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to higher consulting expenses driven by acquisitions, integration and the work towards the separation of the filtration business, increased travel expenses and one-time employee recognition expenses, partially offset by lower variable compensation expenses. Overall, selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, remained flat at 9.6 percent versus the comparable period in 2021.
Research, Development and Engineering Expenses
Research, development and engineering expenses increased $82 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to increased compensation costs including one-time employee recognition expenses, Meritor expenses since the date of acquisition, higher spending on prototypes and testing, and increased consulting expenses. Overall, research, development and engineering expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 4.7 percent in the three months ended September 30, 2022, from 4.5 percent in the comparable period in 2021.
Research, development and engineering expenses increased $143 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to higher compensation costs including one-time employee recognition expenses, increased consulting expenses, Meritor expenses since the date of acquisition and higher spending on prototypes, testing and supplies. Overall, research, development and engineering expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 4.7 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, from 4.4 percent in the comparable period in 2021.
Research activities continue to focus on development of new products to meet future emission standards around the world, improvements in fuel economy performance of diesel and natural gas powered engines and related components as well as development activities around battery electric, fuel cell electric and hydrogen engine solutions.
Equity, Royalty and Interest Income from Investees
Equity, royalty and interest income from investees decreased $24 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to decreased earnings at Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Co., Ltd. and the February 7, 2022, purchase of Westport Fuel System Inc.'s stake in Cummins Westport Joint Venture. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Equity, royalty and interest income from investees decreased $136 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, mainly due to decreased earnings at Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Co., Ltd., the $28 million impairment of our Russian joint venture with KAMAZ, lower earnings at Dongfeng Cummins Engine Co., Ltd. and the February 7, 2022 purchase of Westport Fuel System Inc.'s stake in Cummins Westport Joint Venture. See NOTE 3, "RUSSIAN OPERATIONS," and NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $33 million and $27 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable periods in 2021. The overall increase in debt in the third quarter was primarily related to the Meritor acquisition. The three and nine month increases were primarily due to the overall increase in floating interest rates, new term loan borrowings and higher short-term borrowings, including commercial paper.
Our effective tax rate for 2022 is expected to approximate 22.0 percent (increased 0.5 percent from prior quarter), excluding any discrete items that may arise.
Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were 32.7 percent and 24.6 percent, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2021, were 19.9 percent and 21.1 percent, respectively.
The three months ended September 30, 2022, contained unfavorable discrete tax items of $57 million, primarily due to $51 million of unfavorable tax costs associated with internal restructuring ahead of the planned separation of our filtration business and $10 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $4 million of net favorable other discrete tax items.
The nine months ended September 30, 2022, contained unfavorable net discrete tax items of $52 million, primarily due to $69 million of unfavorable tax costs associated with internal restructuring ahead of the planned separation of our filtration business and $10 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $27 million of favorable changes in tax reserves.
The three months ended October 3, 2021, contained favorable discrete items of $11 million, primarily due to a $16 million favorable release of tax reserves associated with the settlement of tax positions, partially offset by $5 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments.
The nine months ended October 3, 2021, contained favorable discrete items of $8 million, primarily due to an $18 million favorable release of tax reserves associated with the settlement of tax positions, partially offset by $10 million of unfavorable statutory changes in tax rates (mostly in the U.K.).
On August 16, 2022, the U.S. federal government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 into law effective beginning in 2023. The bill includes numerous tax provisions, including a 15 percent corporate minimum tax as well as a one percent excise tax on share repurchases. We are evaluating the potential impacts of the Act on our financial results but do not currently expect the legislation will have a material effect on our results of operations or liquidity.
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests eliminate the income or loss attributable to non-Cummins ownership interests in our consolidated entities. Noncontrolling interests in income of consolidated subsidiaries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased $2 million and decreased $8 million, respectively, versus the comparable periods in 2021. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was primarily due to higher earnings at Eaton Cummins Joint Venture. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was principally due to lower earnings at Hydrogenics Corporation.
Net Income Attributable to Cummins Inc. and Diluted Earnings Per Common Share Attributable to Cummins Inc.
Net income and diluted earnings per common share attributable to Cummins Inc. for the three months ended September 30, 2022, decreased $134 million and $0.87 per diluted share versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to unfavorable discrete tax items, Meritor acquisition and integration costs, one-time employee recognition expenses, higher interest expense related to new borrowings, losses in corporate owned life insurance, lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees (principally in China) and a higher effective tax rate, partially offset by higher net sales and lower variable compensation.
Net income and diluted earnings per common share attributable to Cummins Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, decreased $217 million and $1.18 per diluted share versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees (primarily in China), losses in corporate owned life insurance, costs associated with the suspension of our Russian operations, costs associated with the planned separation of our filtration business, Meritor acquisition and integration costs, one-time employee recognition expenses, unfavorable discrete tax items, higher consulting expenses and increased interest expense related to new borrowings, partially offset by higher net sales and increased gross margin. See NOTE 3, "RUSSIAN OPERATIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Diluted earnings per common share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, benefited $0.10 from fewer weighted-average shares outstanding due to the stock repurchase program.
Comprehensive Income - Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
The foreign currency translation adjustment was a net loss of $379 million and $620 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to flat and net loss of $34 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2021, driven by the following:

Our reportable operating segments consist of the Engine, Distribution, Components, Power Systems and New Power segments. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves. We use segment EBITDA as a primary basis for the Chief Operating Decision Maker to evaluate the performance of each of our reportable operating segments. We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. Segment amounts exclude certain expenses not specifically identifiable to segments. See NOTE 17, "OPERATING SEGMENTS," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information and a reconciliation of our segment information to the corresponding amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income.
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor. Segment results include Meritor's activity since the date of acquisition. The results are included in our Components segment in the axles and brakes business while the electric powertrain portion is included in our New Power segment.
We continue to experience supply chain disruptions and related financial impacts reflected as increased cost of sales. Our industry continues to be unfavorably impacted by supply chain constraints leading to shortages across multiple components categories and limiting our collective ability to meet end-user demand. Our customers are also experiencing supply chain issues.
Following is a discussion of results for each of our operating segments.

Sales
Engine segment sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022, increased $201 million versus the comparable period in 2021. The following were the primary drivers by market:
•Medium-duty truck and bus sales increased $155 million mainly due to favorable pricing and higher demand (including higher aftermarket sales), especially in North America.
•Heavy-duty truck sales increased $111 million principally due to favorable pricing and stronger demand (including higher aftermarket sales) in North America with higher shipments of 16 percent.
These increases were partially offset by decreased light-duty automotive sales of $49 million primarily due to our indefinite suspension of operations in Russia and lower sales to Stellantis.
Engine segment sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased $779 million versus the comparable period in 2021. The following were the primary drivers by market:
•Medium-duty truck and bus sales increased $516 million mainly due to favorable pricing and higher demand (including higher aftermarket sales), especially in North America.
•Heavy-duty truck sales increased $354 million principally due to favorable pricing and stronger demand (including higher aftermarket sales), especially in North America with higher shipments of 9 percent.
Segment EBITDA
Engine segment EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2022, decreased $28 million versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to higher material costs, increased research, development and engineering expenses, increased product coverage, lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees (principally Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Co., Ltd. and the February 7, 2022, purchase of Westport Fuel System Inc.'s stake in Cummins Westport Joint Venture) and manufacturing inefficiencies, partially offset by favorable pricing. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Engine segment EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased $30 million versus the comparable period in 2021, mainly due to favorable pricing, partially offset by higher material costs, lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees (principally decreased earnings at Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Co., Ltd., the $28 million impairment of our Russian joint venture with KAMAZ, lower earnings at Dongfeng Cummins Engine Co., Ltd. and the February 7, 2022, purchase of Westport Fuel System Inc.'s stake in Cummins Westport Joint Venture) and increased research, development and engineering expenses.

The New Power segment is currently in the early stages of commercializing these technologies with efforts primarily focused on the development of our electroloyzers for hydrogen production and electrified power systems and related components and subsystems.
Financial data for the New Power segment was as follows:
We continue to experience supply chain disruptions and related financial impacts reflected as increased cost of sales. Our industry continues to be unfavorably impacted by supply chain constraints leading to shortages across multiple components categories and limiting our collective ability to meet end-user demand. Our customers are also experiencing supply chain issues. Should the supply chain issues continue for an extended period of time or worsen, the impact on our production and supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The Board continues to monitor and evaluate all of these factors and the related impacts on our business and operations, and we are diligently working to minimize the supply chain impacts to our business and to our customers.
Business Outlook
Our outlook reflects the following positive trends and challenges to our business that could impact our revenue and earnings potential for the remainder of 2022.
Positive Trends
•We expect demand for pick-up, medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks in North America to remain strong.
•We believe market demand for trucks in India will continue to be strong.
•We anticipate demand in our aftermarket business will continue to be robust, driven primarily by increased truck utilization in North America and improved demand in our Power Systems business.
Challenges
•Supply constraints driven by strong demand in multiple end markets and regions may lead to increased costs, including higher freight and conversion costs.
•Continued increases in material costs, as well as other inflationary pressures, could negatively impact earnings.
•Our industry's sales continue to be unfavorably impacted by supply chain constraints leading to shortages across multiple components categories and limiting our collective ability to meet end-user demand. Our customers are also experiencing other supply chain issues limiting full production capabilities.
•Resurgence of COVID-19 lockdowns in several cities in China negatively impacted the economy and our end markets. Future lockdowns will contribute to further disruptions in the global supply chain, reducing both our revenues and profitability.
•We expect market demand in truck and construction markets in China to remain at low levels through the remainder of 2022, impacting our revenues, joint venture earnings and net income.
•The indefinite suspension of our operations in Russia is expected to impact our revenue and profitability. The 2021 sales through our wholly-owned distributor in Russia and direct sales into Russia were 2.7 percent of net sales.
•We expect to continue to incur incremental expenses as a result of the completion of the Meritor, Inc. acquisition and its integration into our business.
•The completion of the Meritor, Inc. acquisition impacted our liquidity and resulted in incremental interest expense for debt utilized in funding the transaction, which will negatively impact future net income.
•We expect the planned separation of our filtration business, into a stand-alone company, will result in incremental expenses.
We fund our working capital with cash from operations and short-term borrowings, including commercial paper, when necessary. Various assets and liabilities, including short-term debt, can fluctuate significantly from month to month depending on short-term liquidity needs. As a result, working capital is a prime focus of management's attention. Working capital and balance sheet measures are provided in the following table:

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $379 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to higher working capital requirements of $253 million and lower net income of $225 million, partially offset by $107 million of increases in other miscellaneous items. The higher working capital requirements resulted in a cash outflow of $719 million compared to a cash outflow of $466 million in the comparable period in 2021, mainly due to decreased accrued expenses as a result of lower variable compensation accruals in 2022, partially offset by a lower spend in inventories.
Net cash used in investing activities increased $3.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to the acquisitions of Meritor, Jacobs Vehicle Systems and Cummins Westport Joint Venture, net of cash acquired, of $3.0 billion.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $4.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, primarily due to higher net borrowings of commercial paper of $2.2 billion, increased proceeds from borrowings of $2.0 billion (principally our $2.0 billion term loan) and lower repurchases of common stock of $0.9 billion, partially offset by higher payments on borrowings and finance lease obligations of $1.0 billion ($0.9 billion of which relates to debt assumed in the Meritor acquisition that was retired during the third quarter of 2022).
The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, versus the comparable period in 2021, increased $127 million primarily due to favorable fluctuations in the British pound, partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in the Chinese renminbi.
We generate significant ongoing cash flow. Cash provided by operations is our principal source of liquidity with $1,145 million generated in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our sources of liquidity include:
International and other uncommitted domestic credit facilities
$
230
(1) The majority of marketable securities could be liquidated into cash within a few days.
(2) The five-year credit facility for $2.0 billion, the 364-day credit facility for $1.5 billion and the $500 million incremental 364-day credit facility, maturing August 2026 and August 2023, respectively, are maintained primarily to provide backup liquidity for our commercial paper borrowings and general corporate purposes. At September 30, 2022, we had $2,393 million of commercial paper outstanding, which effectively reduced our available capacity under our revolving credit facilities to $1.6 billion.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
A significant portion of our cash flow is generated outside the U.S. We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct our business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. As a result, we do not anticipate any local liquidity restrictions to preclude us from funding our operating needs with local resources.
If we distribute our foreign cash balances to the U.S. or to other foreign subsidiaries, we could be required to accrue and pay withholding taxes, for example, if we repatriated cash from certain foreign subsidiaries whose earnings we asserted are completely or partially permanently reinvested. Foreign earnings for which we assert permanent reinvestment outside the U.S. consist primarily of earnings of our China, India and Netherlands domiciled subsidiaries. At present, we do not foresee a need to repatriate any earnings for which we asserted permanent reinvestment. However, to help fund cash needs of the U.S. or other international subsidiaries as they arise, we repatriate available cash from certain foreign subsidiaries whose earnings are not permanently reinvested when it is cost effective to do so.
Debt Facilities and Other Sources of Liquidity
On July 13, 2022, we entered into a loan agreement under which we may obtain delayed-draw loans in an amount up to $2.0 billion in the aggregate prior to October 13, 2022. We drew down the entire $2.0 billion balance on August 2, 2022, to help fund the acquisition of Meritor. The interest rate is based on SOFR for the one-month interest period plus the relevant spread. The loan will mature on August 1, 2025. The agreement contains customary events of default and financial and other covenants, including maintaining a net debt to capital ratio of no more than 0.65 to 1.0.
On August 17, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated 364-day credit agreement, which allows us to borrow up to $1.5 billion of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 16, 2023. This credit agreement amended and restated the prior $1.5 billion 364-day credit facility that matured on August 17, 2022. On August 17, 2022, we also entered into an incremental 364-day credit agreement, which allows us to borrow up to $500 million of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 16, 2023.
In connection with the new credit agreements, on August 17, 2022, we entered into an amendment to our $2.0 billion five-year facility to replace LIBOR with SOFR as an interest rate benchmark and to make other conforming changes to interest rate determinations.
We have access to committed credit facilities totaling $4.0 billion, including the $1.5 billion 364-day facility that expires August 16, 2023, $500 million incremental 364-day facility that expires August 16, 2023, and our $2.0 billion five-year facility that expires on August 18, 2026. These revolving credit facilities are maintained primarily to provide backup liquidity for our commercial paper borrowings and general corporate purposes. We intend to maintain credit facilities at the current or higher aggregate amounts by renewing or replacing these facilities at or before expiration. There were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities at September 30, 2022.
We can issue up to$4.0 billion of unsecured, short-term promissory notes (commercial paper) pursuant to the Board authorized commercial paper programs. These programs facilitate the private placement of unsecured short-term debt through third-party brokers. We use the net proceeds from the commercial paper borrowings for acquisitions and general corporate purposes. The total combined borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facilities and commercial programs should not exceed $4.0 billion. At September 30, 2022, we had $2.4 billion of commercial paper outstanding, which effectively reduced our available capacity under our revolving credit facilities to $1.6 billion.
As a well-known seasoned issuer, we filed an automatic shelf registration of an undetermined amount of debt and equity with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 8, 2022. Under this shelf registration we may offer, from time to time, debt securities, common stock, preferred and preference stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units.
In July 2017, the U.K.'s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), announced it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. The cessation date for submission and publication of rates for certain tenors of LIBOR has since been extended until mid-2023. Various central bank committees and working groups continue to discuss replacement of benchmark rates, the process for amending existing LIBOR-based contracts and the potential economic impacts of different alternatives. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee has identified the SOFR as its preferred alternative rate for U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR is a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions. We have evaluated the potential impact of the replacement of the LIBOR benchmark interest rate including risk management, internal operational readiness and monitoring the Financial Accounting Standards Board standard-setting process to address financial reporting issues that might arise in connection with transition from LIBOR to a new benchmark rate. While we do not believe the change will materially impact us due to our operational and system readiness coupled with relevant contractual fallback language, we continue to evaluate all eventual transition risks. In anticipation of LIBOR's phase out, our most recent revolving credit agreements include a well-documented transition mechanism for selecting a benchmark replacement rate for LIBOR, subject to our agreement. Additionally, with respect to our $1.3 billion in LIBOR-based fixed to variable rate swaps maturing in 2025 and 2030, we reviewed and believe our adherence to the 2020 LIBOR fallback protocol will allow for a smooth transition to the designated replacement rate when that transition occurs.
On September 30, 2022, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a $1.0 billion credit agreement (Credit Agreement), consisting of a $400 million revolving credit facility and a $600 million term loan facility (Facilities), in anticipation of the separation of our filtration business. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will not become available under the Credit Agreement unless and until, among other things, there is a sale to the public of shares in our subsidiary that holds the filtration business (Parent Borrower). The Credit Agreement will automatically terminate if no such public sale of shares of Parent Borrower occurs on or prior to March 30, 2023. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement would be available to Parent Borrower and one or more of its subsidiaries (Borrower). If borrowings become available under the Credit Agreement, the Facilities would mature on September 30, 2027.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement would bear interest at varying rates, depending on the type of loan and, in some cases, the rates of designated benchmarks and the applicable Borrower’s election. Generally, U.S. dollar-denominated loans would bear interest at adjusted term SOFR (which includes a 0.10 percent credit spread adjustment to term SOFR) for the applicable interest period plus a rate ranging from 1.125 percent to 1.75 percent depending on Parent Borrower's net leverage ratio.
Supply Chain Financing
We currently have supply chain financing programs with financial intermediaries, which provide certain vendors the option to be paid by financial intermediaries earlier than the due date on the applicable invoice. When a vendor utilizes the program and receives an early payment from a financial intermediary, they take a discount on the invoice. We then pay the financial intermediary the face amount of the invoice on the regularly scheduled due date. The maximum amount that we may have outstanding under the program is $495 million. We do not reimburse vendors for any costs they incur for participation in the program and their participation is completely voluntary. As a result, all amounts owed to the financial intermediaries are presented as Accounts payable in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts due to the financial intermediaries reflected in accounts payable at September 30, 2022, were $227 million.
Accounts Receivable Factoring Arrangements
We assumed an accounts receivable factoring program from the acquisition of Meritor with a total amount utilized at September 30, 2022, of $235 million, of which $215 million was attributable to committed factoring facilities. The remaining amount of $20 million was related to factoring by certain of Meritor's European subsidiaries under uncommitted factoring facilities with financial institutions. The receivables under all of these programs are sold at face value and are excluded from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Total facility size, utilized amounts, readily available amounts and expiration dates for each of these programs are shown in the table below.
(1) Actual amounts may exceed the bank's commitment at the bank's discretion.
(2) The factoring program is supported by a 364-day committed credit facility through June 22, 2023.
(3) The U.K. factoring facility enables the factoring of British pound and Euro denominated accounts receivable.
(4) There is no explicit facility size under the agreement, but the counterparty approves the purchase of receivable tranches as its discretion.
The Swedish facility is backed by a 364-day liquidity commitment, which was renewed through June 22, 2023. Commitments under all of Meritor's factoring facilities are subject to standard terms and conditions for these types of arrangements (including, in the case of the U.K. and Italy commitments, a sole discretion clause whereby the bank retains the right to not purchase receivables, which has not been invoked since the inception of the respective programs).
We received $108 million of proceeds from receivables sold, and costs associated with all of the off-balance sheet arrangements described above were $1 million since the August 3, 2022, acquisition date.
We intend to wind down existing Meritor factoring programs into 2023.
Uses of Cash
Meritor Acquisition
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor, Inc. (Meritor). The total purchase price, including debt that was retired on the closing date, was $2.9 billion. In addition, we assumed $1.0 billion of additional debt, of which $0.9 billion was retired prior to the end of the third quarter. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Dividends
We paid dividends of $633 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In July 2022, the Board authorized an increase to our quarterly dividend of approximately 8 percent from $1.45 per share to $1.57 per share.
Stock Repurchases
In December 2021, the Board authorized the acquisition of up to $2.0 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2019 repurchase plan. In December 2019, the Board authorized the acquisition of up to $2.0 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2018 repurchase plan. In the first nine months of 2022, we made the following purchases under the 2019 stock repurchase program:

We intend to repurchase outstanding shares from time to time during 2022 to enhance shareholder value.
Capital expenditures, including spending on internal use software, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $497 million versus $398 million in the comparable period in 2021. We plan to spend an estimated $850 million to $900 million in 2022 on capital expenditures related to our legacy Cummins businesses and an additional $40 million to $50 million for Meritor, excluding internal use software, with over 60 percent of these expenditures expected to be invested in North America. In addition, we plan to spend an estimated $55 million to $65 million on internal use software in 2022.
Current Maturities of Short and Long-Term Debt
We had $2.4 billion of commercial paper outstanding at September 30, 2022, that matures in less than one year. The maturity schedule of our existing long-term debt does not require significant cash outflows until 2023 when our 3.65 percent senior notes and 2025 when our term loan and 0.75 percent senior notes are due. Required annual long-term debt principal payments range from $13 million to $2.5 billion over the next five years (including the remainder of 2022). See NOTE 11, "DEBT," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Pensions
Our global pension plans, including our unfunded and non-qualified plans, were 121 percent funded at December 31, 2021. Our U.S. defined benefit plan, which represented approximately 52 percent of the worldwide pension obligation, was 138 percent funded, and our U.K. defined benefit plan was 127 percent funded at December 31, 2021. As part of the Meritor acquisition, we recorded assets of $147 million and liabilities of $105 million on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to Meritor's postretirement benefit plans. The funded status of our pension plans is dependent upon a variety of variables and assumptions including return on invested assets, market interest rates and levels of voluntary contributions to the plans. In the first nine months of 2022, the investment loss on our U.S. pension trust was 5.1 percent while our U.K. pension trust loss was 21.7 percent. We anticipate making additional defined benefit pension contributions during the remainder of 2022 of $7 million for our U.S. and U.K. qualified and non-qualified pension plans. These contributions may be made from trusts or company funds either to increase pension assets or to make direct benefit payments to plan participants. We expect our 2022 annual net periodic pension cost to approximate $20 million.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
A .19 minority shareholder in one of our businesses, Hydrogenics Corporation (Hydrogenics), has, among other rights and subject to related obligations and restrictive covenants, rights that are exercisable between September 2022 and September 2026 to require us to (1) purchase such shareholder's shares (Put Option) at an amount up to the fair market value (calculated pursuant to a process outlined in the shareholders' agreement) and (2) sell to such shareholder Hydrogenics' electrolyzer business at an amount up to the fair market value of the electrolyzer business (calculated pursuant to a process outlined in the shareholders’ agreement). We recorded the estimated fair value of the Put Option as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements with an offset to additional paid-in capital. At September 30, 2022, the redeemable noncontrolling interest balance was $252 million.

Management's Assessment of Liquidity
Our financial condition and liquidity remain strong. Our solid balance sheet and credit ratings enable us to have ready access to credit and the capital markets. We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. We believe our access to capital markets, our existing cash and marketable securities, operating cash flow and revolving credit facilities provide us with the financial flexibility needed to fund acquisitions, common stock repurchases, dividend payments, targeted capital expenditures, projected pension obligations, working capital and debt service obligations through 2022 and beyond. We continue to generate significant cash from operations and maintain access to our revolving credit facilities and commercial paper programs as noted above.
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that often require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts presented and disclosed in the financial statements. Management reviews these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience, changes in business conditions and other relevant factors they believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In any given reporting period, our actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Critical accounting estimates are defined as follows: the estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the estimate was made; different estimates reasonably could have been used; or if changes in the estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period and the change would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Our senior management has discussed the development and selection of our accounting policies, related accounting estimates and the disclosures set forth below with the Audit Committee of the Board. Our critical accounting estimates disclosed in the Form 10-K address estimating liabilities for warranty programs, assessing goodwill impairment, accounting for income taxes and pension benefits.
We make strategic acquisitions that may have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. We allocate the purchase price of acquired businesses to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction at their estimated fair values. The determination of the fair value of intangible assets, which represent a significant portion of the purchase price in many of our acquisitions can be complex and requires the use of significant judgment with regard to (i) the fair value and (ii) the period and the method by which the intangible asset will be amortized. We use information available to us to make fair value determinations and engage independent valuation specialists, when necessary, to assist in the fair value determination of significant acquired intangibles. We estimate the fair value of acquisition-related intangible assets principally based on projections of cash flows that will arise from identifiable intangible assets of acquired businesses, which includes estimates of discount rates, revenue growth rates, EBITDA, royalty rates, customer attrition rates and technology obsolesce rates. The projected cash flows are discounted to determine the present value of the assets at the dates of acquisition. Although we believe the projections, assumptions and estimates made were reasonable and appropriate, these estimates require significant judgment by management, are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded to our consolidated statements of income. See NOTE 16, "ACQUISITIONS," to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about our recent business combinations.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk may be found in Item 7A of our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in this information since the filing of our 2021 Form 10-K.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). As permitted by SEC guidance for newly acquired businesses, the evaluation did not include an assessment of those disclosure controls and procedures that are subsumed by and did not include an assessment of internal control over financial reporting as it relates to Meritor, Inc. (Meritor), which was acquired on August 3, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and our CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as described below, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor. As part of our ongoing integration of the Meritor business, we are continuing to incorporate our controls and procedures into Meritor and to augment our company-wide controls to reflect the risks inherent in an acquisition of this type. As permitted by the SEC guidance for newly acquired businesses, our report on our internal control over financial reporting in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022, will include a scope exception that excludes the acquired Meritor business in order for management to have sufficient time to evaluate and implement our internal control structure over the operations of the Meritor business.
The matters described under "Legal Proceedings" in NOTE 13, "COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to other information set forth in this report and the risk factors noted below, you should consider other risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Other than noted below, there have been no material changes to our risks described in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K or the "CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION" in this Quarterly report. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently judge to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
We are conducting a formal internal review of our emission certification process and compliance with emission standards with respect to our pick-up truck applications and are working with the EPA and CARB to address their questions about these applications. Due to the continuing nature of our formal internal review and on-going discussions with the EPA and CARB, we cannot predict the final results of this formal review and these regulatory processes, nor whether, or the extent to which, they could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows.
We previously announced that we are conducting a formal internal review of our emissions certification process and compliance with emission standards with respect to all of our pick-up truck applications, following conversations with the EPA and CARB regarding certification of our engines for model year 2019 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks. During conversations with the EPA and CARB about the effectiveness of our pick-up truck applications, the regulators raised concerns that certain aspects of our emissions systems may reduce the effectiveness of our emissions control systems and thereby act as defeat devices. As a result, our internal review focuses, in part, on the regulators’ concerns. We are working closely with the regulators to enhance our emissions systems to improve the effectiveness of all of our pick-up truck applications and to fully address the regulators’ requirements. Based on discussions with the regulators, we have developed a new calibration for the engines in model year 2019 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks that has been included in all engines shipped since September 2019. During our ongoing discussions, the regulators turned their attention to other model years and other engines, most notably our pick-up truck applications for RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks for model years 2013 through 2018 and Titan trucks for model years 2016 through 2019. In connection with these and other ongoing discussions with the EPA and CARB, we are developing a new software calibration and will recall model years 2013 through 2018 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks. We accrued $30 million for the RAM recall during the first quarter of 2022, an amount that reflected our current estimate of the cost of that recall. We are also developing a new software calibration and hardware fix and will recall model years 2016 through 2019 Titan trucks. We accrued $29 million for the Titan recall during the third quarter of 2022, an amount that reflected our current estimate of the cost of that recall.
We will continue to work together closely with the relevant regulators to develop and implement recommendations for improvement and seek to reach further resolutions as part of our ongoing commitment to compliance. Due to the presence of many unknown facts and circumstances, we are not yet able to estimate any further financial impact of these matters. It is possible that the consequences resulting from our formal review and these regulatory processes could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows.
BUSINESS CONDITIONS / DISRUPTIONS
The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the global response (including government bans or restrictions on doing business in Russia), could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Given the nature of our business and our global operations, political, economic, and other conditions in foreign countries and regions, including geopolitical risks such as the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, may adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We have suspended our commercial operations in Russia indefinitely, which resulted in a $158 million charge in the first quarter of 2022. In the second quarter, we recovered certain inventory and other expense amounts reserved in the first quarter and incurred some small additional charges resulting in a net recovery of $47 million. In the third quarter, we incurred $4 million of additional contract termination charges, and we recovered certain bad debt expenses and inventory amounts reserved in the first quarter for a net charge of $1 million. We may incur additional charges as conditions continue to evolve including with respect to our planned extrication from our relationship with KAMAZ Publicly Traded Company and its subsidiaries, including the unconsolidated joint venture. In addition, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, an inability to collect customer receivables and may be the subject of litigation in connection with our suspension of commercial operations in Russia. The
broader consequences of this conflict, which may include further sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, and geopolitical shifts; potential retaliatory action by the Russian government against companies, including possible nationalization of foreign businesses in Russia; increased tensions between the United States and countries in which we operate; and the extent of the conflict’s effect on our business and results of operations as well as the global economy, cannot be predicted. To the extent the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine adversely affects our business, it may also have the effect of heightening many other risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. Such risks include, but are not limited to, adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, particularly with regard to raw material, transportation and labor price fluctuations; disruptions to our information technology environment, including through cyberattack, ransom attack, or cyber-intrusion; adverse changes in international trade policies and relations; disruptions in global supply chains; and our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate changes.
Failure to successfully integrate the acquisition of Meritor, Inc. (Meritor) could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The acquisition of Meritor will involve the integration of Meritor’s operations with our existing operations, and there are uncertainties inherent in such an integration. We will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating Meritor’s operations. A delay in the integration of Meritor could cause us to fail to realize some or all of the anticipated benefits within a reasonable period of time or at all, which could result in additional transaction costs or in other negative effects.
We may fail to fully realize all of the anticipated benefits, including enhanced revenue, earnings, and cash flow from our acquisition of Meritor.
Our ability to fully realize all of the anticipated benefits, including enhanced revenue, earnings, and cash flow, from our acquisition of Meritor will depend, in substantial part, on our ability to successfully integrate the products into our segments, launch the Meritor products around the world and achieve our projected sales goals. While we believe we will ultimately achieve these objectives, it is possible that we will be unable to achieve all of these objectives within our anticipated time frame or in the anticipated amounts. If we are not able to successfully complete the integration of the Meritor business or implement our Meritor strategy, we may not fully realize the anticipated benefits, including enhanced revenue, earnings, and cash flows, from this acquisition or such anticipated benefits may take longer to realize than expected. As part of the purchase accounting associated with the acquisition, significant goodwill and intangible asset balances were recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. If cash flows from the acquisition fall short of our anticipated amounts, these assets could be subject to non-cash impairment charges, negatively impacting our earnings.

(1) Shares purchased represent shares under the Board authorized share repurchase program.
(2) Shares repurchased under our Key Employee Stock Investment Plan only occur in the event of a participant default, which cannot be predicted, and were excluded from this column.
In December 2021, the Board authorized the acquisition of up to $2.0 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2019 repurchase plan. In December 2019, the Board authorized the acquisition of up to $2.0 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2018 repurchase plan. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased $23 million of common stock under the 2019 authorization. The dollar value remaining available for future purchases under the 2019 program at September 30, 2022, was $222 million.
Our Key Employee Stock Investment Plan allows certain employees, other than officers, to purchase shares of common stock on an installment basis up to an established credit limit. We hold participants’ shares as security for the loans and would, in effect,
repurchase shares only if the participant defaulted in repayment of the loan. Shares associated with participants' sales are sold as open-market transactions via a third-party broker.
