The Class A exchangeable shares and Class B exchangeable shares are shares of the share capital in Molson Coors Canada Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant. They are publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbols TPX.A and TPX.B, respectively. These shares are intended to provide substantially the same economic and voting rights as the corresponding class of Molson Coors common stock in which they may be exchanged. In addition to the registered Class A common stock and the Class B common stock, the registrant has also issued and outstanding one share each of a Special Class A voting stock and Special Class B voting stock.

MOLSON COORS BEVERAGE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Unless otherwise noted in this report, any description of "we," "us" or "our" includes Molson Coors Beverage Company ("MCBC" or the "Company"), principally a holding company, and its operating and non-operating subsidiaries included within our reporting segments. Our reporting segments include Americas and EMEA&APAC. Our Americas segment operates in the U.S., Canada and various countries in the Caribbean, Latin and South America, and our EMEA&APAC segment operates in Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Montenegro, the Republic of Ireland, Romania, Serbia, the U.K., various other European countries and certain countries within the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific.
Unless otherwise indicated, information in this report is presented in USD and comparisons are to comparable prior periods. Our primary operating currencies, other than the USD, include the CAD, the GBP and our Central European operating currencies such as the EUR, CZK, RON and RSD.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report, except as noted in Note 2, "New Accounting Pronouncements".
The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any other future period.
Cost Inflation
We have continued to incur significant cost inflation, including materials and manufacturing expenses, which negatively impacted our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, although we have experienced some moderation in the recent period. While cost inflation has been high in all of our markets, the impact to COGS on a percentage basis was higher for our EMEA&APAC segment than our Americas segment. In addition, consumers in certain markets in our EMEA&APAC segment continued to be impacted by local inflation leading to a reduction in their discretionary purchases.
To the extent materials and manufacturing prices continue to fluctuate, our business and financial results could continue to be materially adversely impacted. We continue to monitor these risks and rely on our risk management hedging program, increased pricing to our customers, our premiumization strategy and cost savings programs to help mitigate some of the inflationary pressures. Even if we are able to raise the prices of our products, consumers might react negatively to such price increases, which could have a material adverse effect on, among other things, our brands, reputation and sales. If our competitors maintain or substantially lower their prices, we may lose customers or be forced to lower prices to remain competitive. Our profitability may be impacted by prices that do not offset the inflationary pressures, which would negatively impact gross margins. In addition, even if we increase the prices of our products in response to increases in the cost of commodities or other cost increases, we may not be able to sustain our price increases or customers may trade down to cheaper alternatives.
Anti-Dilutive Securities
Anti-dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted EPS were 0.3 million and 0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, and 0.6 million and 0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.
Dividends
On July 13, 2023, our Company's Board of Directors declared a third quarter cash dividend of $0.41 per share, paid on September 15, 2023, to shareholders of Class A and Class B common stock of record on September 1, 2023. Shareholders of exchangeable shares received the CAD equivalent of dividends declared on Class A and Class B common stock, equal to CAD 0.53 per share.

Table of Contents
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, dividends declared to eligible shareholders were $1.23 per share, with the CAD equivalent equal to CAD 1.63 per share. Dividends declared to eligible shareholders were $0.38 per share, with the CAD equivalent equal to CAD 0.49 per share, and $1.14 per share, with the CAD equivalent equal to CAD 1.45 per share, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
Share Repurchase Program
During the first quarter of 2022, our Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program up to an aggregate of $200 million of our Company's Class B common stock through March 31, 2026, with the program primarily intended to offset annual employee equity award grants.
The following table presents the shares repurchased under the share repurchase program, excluding excise taxes, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022:
Three Months EndedNine Months Ended

Aggregate value (in millions)$34.2 $12.6 $60.9 $38.8 
On September 29, 2023, our Company's Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $2.0 billion of our Class B common stock excluding brokerage commissions, with an expected program term of five years. This repurchase program replaces and supersedes any repurchase program previously approved by the Board, including the program approved during the first quarter of 2022. The number, price, structure and timing of the repurchases under the new program, if any, will be at our sole discretion and future repurchases will be evaluated by us depending on market conditions, liquidity needs, restrictions under our debt arrangements and other factors. Share repurchases may be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase authorization does not oblige us to acquire any particular amount of our Company's Class B common stock. The Board may suspend, modify or terminate the new repurchase program at any time without prior notice.
Non-Cash Activity
Non-cash investing activities include movements in our guarantee of indebtedness of certain equity method investments. See Note 3, "Investments" for further discussion. We also had non-cash activities related to capital expenditures incurred but not yet paid of $168.6 million and $149.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. In addition, we had non-cash activities related to certain issuances of share-based awards.
During the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a non-cash transaction related to the establishment of an accrued liability of $56.0 million as the best estimate of the probable loss in the Keystone litigation case based on the jury verdict. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a non-cash transaction of $1.5 million in accrued interest associated with this accrued liability. See Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies" for further details.
Other than the activity mentioned above and the supplemental non-cash activity related to the recognition of leases further discussed in Note 6, "Leases," there was no other significant non-cash activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.
Share-Based Compensation
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, we granted stock options, RSUs and PSUs to certain officers and other eligible employees. We recognized share-based compensation expense of $13.8 million and $8.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, and $34.1 million and $25.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Supplier Financing
We are the buyer under a supplier finance program with Citibank N.A. ("Citi" or "the bank"), with $145.7 million and $135.2 million confirmed as valid and outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We recognize these unpaid balances in accounts payable and other current liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Under the program, we agree to pay the bank the stated amount of confirmed invoices from our designated suppliers on the original maturity dates of the invoices. We have no involvement in establishing the terms or conditions of the arrangement between the suppliers and the bank and do not participate in such transactions. Either Citi or us may terminate the agreement upon at least 30 days written notice. We do not provide secured legal assets or other forms of guarantees under the arrangement. Our current payment terms with the majority of the suppliers participating in the supplier finance program generally range from 60 to 120 days, which we deem to be commercially reasonable.
Acquisition
On August 7, 2023, we acquired a 75% equity interest in Blue Run Spirits, Inc. (“Blue Run”), a U.S. based high end whiskey business, for a purchase price of $78 million (subject to adjustment for net working capital), which included cash paid of $65 million. The acquisition is aligned with our strategy to expand beyond the beer aisle and enhance our presence in the spirits category.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, with $88 million of consideration preliminarily allocated to a definite-lived brand intangible asset to be amortized over a 15-year period and the remainder primarily allocated to other working capital balances and goodwill for the amount in excess of net identifiable assets acquired. A noncontrolling interest was recognized at fair value based on a Monte Carlo simulation model and is recorded as redeemable noncontrolling interest in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the contractual terms of the agreement. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented as the impact is not material to our results of operation or financial position.
2. New Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In March 2020, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform and was effective for all entities upon issuance on March 12, 2020 and remains effective through December 31, 2024. The guidance permits a company to elect certain optional expedients and exceptions when affected by the changes in reference rate reform. We have adopted this guidance and elected to apply certain optional expedients related to our derivative instruments with maturity dates extending beyond the discontinuance date of LIBOR. Specifically, in May 2023, we amended our 2026 forward starting interest rate swaps to replace LIBOR with SOFR and applied the optional expedients to account for the transition. None of the changes made as a result of reference rate reform had a material impact on our financial statements.
In September 2022, the FASB issued authoritative guidance intended to provide consistent and transparent disclosures for a buyer in a supplier finance program by requiring disclosures of key program terms, the amount of obligations that have been confirmed as valid with the finance provider that are deemed outstanding as of the end of the period, a description of the financial line item in which this unpaid balance resides and a rollforward of the obligations including the amount of obligations confirmed and paid. We adopted this guidance, with the exception of the rollforward disclosure requirement, in our quarterly report for the three months ended March 31, 2023. See Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for additional information on our supplier finance program. The rollforward disclosure requirement is effective for us in our annual report for the year ending December 31, 2024 and is required to be applied prospectively.
Other than the items noted above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective or adopted in the current year that we believe have a significant impact, or potential significant impact, on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. Investments
Our investments include both equity method and consolidated investments. Those entities identified as VIEs have been evaluated to determine whether we are the primary beneficiary. The VIEs included under "Consolidated VIEs" below are those for which we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary and accordingly, we have consolidated these entities. We have not provided any financial support to any of our VIEs during the year that we were not previously contractually obligated to provide. Amounts due to and due from our equity method investments are recorded as affiliate accounts payable and affiliate accounts receivable, respectively.
13
Table of Contents
Authoritative guidance related to the consolidation of VIEs requires that we continually reassess whether we are the primary beneficiary of VIEs in which we have an interest. As such, the conclusion regarding the primary beneficiary status is subject to change and we continually evaluate circumstances that could require consolidation or deconsolidation. Our consolidated VIEs are Cobra Beer Partnership, Ltd. ("Cobra U.K."), Rocky Mountain Metal Container ("RMMC"), and Rocky Mountain Bottle Company ("RMBC"), as well as other immaterial entities. Our unconsolidated VIEs are Brewers Retail Inc. ("BRI"), Brewers Distributor Ltd. ("BDL") and The Yuengling Company LLC ("TYC"), as well as other immaterial investments.
On August 3, 2023, we sold our 57.5% controlling interest in Truss LP ("Truss") in Canada to Tilray Brands for an immaterial amount and recognized a loss of $11.1 million within other operating income (expense), net in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations upon deconsolidation of the business. Earlier in the year, on June 22, 2023, HEXO Corp, our joint venture partner in Truss, was acquired by Tilray Brands and this transaction had no impact on Molson Coors' ownership in the joint venture or on our consolidated results. Prior to the sale of our controlling interest, Truss was recorded as a consolidated VIE in comparative periods presented.
Both BRI and BDL have outstanding third party debt which is guaranteed by their respective shareholders. As a result, we had a guarantee liability of $32.9 million and $33.3 million recorded as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which is presented within accounts payable and other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and represents our proportionate share of the outstanding balance of these debt instruments. The carrying value of the guarantee liability equals fair value, which considers an adjustment for our own non-performance risk and is considered a Level 2 measurement. The offset to the guarantee liability was recorded as an adjustment to our respective equity method investment within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The resulting change in our equity method investments during the year due to movements in the guarantee represents a non-cash investing activity.
ZOA Energy, LLC
During the third quarter of 2023, we increased our investment in ZOA Energy, LLC (“ZOA”), an energy drink company operating in the U.S. and Canada, bringing our ownership interest to 40%, on a fully diluted basis. This increase in ownership resulted in the transition of accounting for our investment from the fair value method under ASC 321 to equity method investment accounting under ASC 323 on a prospective basis and the cash outflow associated with the investment is reflected within Other in the Investing activities section of the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Subsequent to the investment, the carrying value of our recorded ownership investment exceeds our ratable portion of underlying equity in the net assets of ZOA, and this basis difference has been fully allocated to equity method goodwill. Under our agreement, we hold an option to purchase incremental shares to increase our ownership to over 50% starting in September 2024 for a 90-day period, thereafter.
In addition to our investment, we have an agreement to distribute ZOA’s products in the U.S. ZOA affiliates accounts payable was not material as of September 30, 2023.

(1)The EMEA&APAC goodwill balance was fully impaired during the year ended December 31, 2020. Subsequent changes in the gross carrying value of goodwill and accumulated impairment loss balances are due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which are presented net in the table above.
(2)Goodwill acquired in the Americas was related to the Blue Run acquisition as discussed above in Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". The goodwill acquired is not deductible for tax purposes.
Subsequent to taking a partial impairment as a result of the annual impairment test performed as of October 1, 2022, the Americas reporting unit goodwill balance was considered at risk of future impairment. The remaining goodwill is at risk in the event of significant unfavorable changes in assumptions including the forecasted future cash flows, terminal growth rates, market multiples and/or weighted-average cost of capital utilized in the discounted cash flows analysis. We continue to build on the strength of our iconic core brands, increase our above premium portfolio and expand beyond the beer aisle. While progress has been made on this strategy, including the increasing proportion of our above premium portfolio over the last several years and the strengthening of our core brands, the growth targets included in management’s forecasted future cash flows are inherently at risk given that the strategies are still in progress. In addition, the growth targets factored in current expectations of the beer industry environment and broader macroeconomic conditions such as cost inflation for certain inputs, which could continue to put pressure on achieving key margin and cash flow projections into the future. Additionally, the fair value determinations are sensitive to further macroeconomic conditions, including the ongoing impacts of cost inflation, further increases to interest rates and other external industry factors impacting our business.
We determined that there was no triggering event that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that would indicate the carrying value of our goodwill was greater than its fair value. Our annual impairment test as of October 1, 2023 is currently in progress, and we have not yet finalized our results. For all of the reasons described in the preceding paragraph, our goodwill balance continues to be at risk of future impairment.

The changes in the gross carrying amounts of intangible assets from December 31, 2022 to September 30, 2023 are primarily driven by the acquired brand intangible asset related to Blue Run, and the impact of foreign exchange rates, as a significant amount of intangible assets are denominated in foreign currencies.
Based on foreign exchange rates as of September 30, 2023, the estimated future amortization expense of intangible assets is as follows:
Fiscal yearAmount
(In millions)
2023 - remaining$52.4 
2024$208.4 
2025$208.4 
2026$189.9 
2027$125.5 
Amortization expense of intangible assets was $52.4 million and $51.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, and $154.9 million and $157.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. This expense was presented within MG&A expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As of the date of our annual impairment test of indefinite-lived intangible assets, performed as of October 1, 2022, the fair value of all indefinite-lived brands exceeded their respective carrying values by over 15%.

16
Table of Contents
No triggering events occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that would indicate the carrying value of our indefinite-lived or definite-lived intangible assets were greater than their fair value.
Fair Value Assumptions
Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions and factors. The key assumptions used to derive the estimated fair values of our reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets are discussed in Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 6, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets" in our Annual Report, and represent Level 3 measurements.

(2)Our short-term borrowings include bank overdrafts, borrowings on our overdraft facilities and other items.
As of September 30, 2023, we had $21.4 million in bank overdrafts and $121.1 million in bank cash related to our cross-border, cross-currency cash pool for a net positive position of $99.7 million. As of December 31, 2022, we had $15.9 million in bank overdrafts and $49.7 million in bank cash related to our cross-border, cross-currency cash pool for a net positive position of $33.8 million.
In addition, we have CAD, GBP and USD overdraft facilities under which we had no outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. See further detail within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" in our Annual Report for further discussion related to letters of credit.
Debt Fair Value Measurements
We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of certain outstanding borrowings by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the contractual terms of the obligations using observable market interest and foreign exchange rates. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of our outstanding long-term debt (including the current portion of long-term debt) was approximately $5.4 billion and $5.9 billion, respectively. All senior notes are valued based on significant observable inputs and classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying values of our short-term borrowings approximate their fair values and are also classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Revolving Credit Facility and Commercial Paper
On June 26, 2023, we amended and restated our multi-currency revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend the term through June 26, 2028, and to increase the borrowing capacity to $2.0 billion. This $2.0 billion revolving credit facility amended our pre-existing $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to mature on July 7, 2024. On September 28, 2023, we amended our commercial paper program, which reduces borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility, to a maximum borrowing capacity of $2.0 billion to borrow at any time at variable interest rates. The $150.0 million sub-facility available for the issuance of letters of credit remains unchanged.

18
Table of Contents
Concurrent with these transactions, in the second quarter of 2023, we incurred incremental issuance costs of $5.2 million related to the $2.0 billion revolving credit facility, which were recorded within other current assets, net, and other assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the term of the facility. We use this facility from time to time to fund the repayment of debt upon maturity and for working capital or general purposes.
We had no borrowings drawn on the revolving credit facility and no commercial paper borrowings as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Debt Covenants
Under the terms of each of our debt facilities, we must comply with certain restrictions. These include customary events of default and specified representations, warranties and covenants, as well as covenants that restrict our ability to incur certain additional priority indebtedness (certain thresholds of secured consolidated net tangible assets), certain leverage threshold percentages, create or permit liens on assets, and restrictions on mergers, acquisitions and certain types of sale lease-back transactions.
Under the amended and restated $2.0 billion revolving credit facility, we may not exceed a maximum leverage ratio, calculated as net debt to EBITDA (as defined in the revolving credit facility agreement) of 4.00x, measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter through maturity of the credit facility. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all of these restrictions and covenants, have met such financial ratios and have met all debt payment obligations. All of our outstanding senior notes as of September 30, 2023 rank pari-passu.
8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Our risk management and derivative accounting policies are presented within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in our Annual Report and did not significantly change during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As noted in Part II. - Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in our Annual Report, due to the nature of our counterparty agreements, and the fact that we are not subject to master netting arrangements, we are not able to net positions with the same counterparty and, therefore, present our derivative positions on a gross basis in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Except as noted below, our significant derivative positions have not changed considerably since December 31, 2022.
Forward Starting Interest Rate Swaps
In late April 2022, the forward starting interest rate swaps associated with the $500 million 3.5% notes that we repaid upon maturity on May 1, 2022 were terminated and settled. The immaterial loss on settlement of the swaps was recorded through interest expense during the second quarter of 2022.
Foreign Currency Forwards
In the second quarter of 2023, we entered into approximately CAD 260 million (approximately 195 million USD) of foreign exchange forward contracts to manage our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations related to the repayment of our CAD 500 million 2.84% notes that matured on July 15, 2023. These contracts were not designated in hedge accounting relationships; as such, changes in the fair value were recorded in other non-operating income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. These contracts settled on July 12, 2023 in advance of the notes repayment for an immaterial amount.
Derivative Fair Value Measurements
We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the derivative's contractual terms and observable market interest, foreign exchange and commodity rates. The fair values of our derivatives also include credit risk adjustments to account for our counterparties' credit risk, as well as our own non-performance risk, as appropriate.

The cumulative translation adjustments related to our net investment hedges remain in AOCI until the respective underlying net investment is sold or liquidated. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, we did not reclassify any amounts related to net investment hedges from AOCI into earnings.
As of September 30, 2023, we expect net gains of approximately $1 million (pretax) recorded in AOCI will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. For derivatives designated in cash flow hedge relationships, the maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are hedged as of September 30, 2023 is approximately 3 years, as well as those related to our remaining forecasted debt issuances in 2026.

Effective tax rate21 %20 %22 %20 %
The higher effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year was primarily due to the impact of geographic mix with higher pretax income in higher tax rate jurisdictions, partially offset by the net effect of discrete tax items in the period. We recognized $15.5 million discrete tax benefit in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $5.9 million discrete tax expense in the three months ended September 30, 2022. We recognized $7.6 million discrete tax benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $2.7 million discrete tax expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Our tax rate can be volatile and may change with, among other things, the amount and source of pretax income or loss, our ability to utilize foreign tax credits, excess tax benefits or deficiencies from share-based compensation, changes in tax laws and the movement of liabilities established pursuant to accounting guidance for uncertain tax positions as statutes of limitations expire, positions are effectively settled, or when additional information becomes available. There are proposed or pending tax law changes in various jurisdictions and other changes to regulatory environments in countries in which we do business that, if enacted, could have an impact on our effective tax rate.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was signed into U.S. law. The IRA includes a new corporate alternative minimum tax of 15% on the adjusted financial statement income (“AFSI”) of corporations with average AFSI exceeding $1.0 billion over a three-year period, effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The alternative minimum tax is not expected to impact our financial or cash tax position in 2023. Additionally, the IRA imposes an excise tax of 1% on stock repurchases, effective January 1, 2023. The excise tax is recorded as an incremental cost in treasury stock on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Based on our current analysis, we do not expect these provisions to have a material impact on our annual financial statements. We will continue to evaluate their impact as additional information becomes available.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation and Other Disputes and Environmental
Related to litigation, other disputes and environmental issues, we have an aggregate accrued contingent liability of $70.4 million and $77.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. While we cannot predict the eventual aggregate cost for litigation, other disputes and environmental matters in which we are currently involved, we believe adequate reserves have been provided for losses that are probable and estimable. For all matters unless otherwise noted below, we believe that any reasonably possible losses in excess of the amounts accrued are immaterial to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Our litigation, other disputes and environmental issues are discussed in further detail within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" in our Annual Report and did not significantly change during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, except as noted below.
Other than those disclosed below, we are also involved in other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the outcome of these proceedings, in our opinion, based on a review with legal counsel, other than as noted, none of these disputes or legal actions are expected to have a material impact on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
On February 12, 2018, Stone Brewing Company filed a trademark infringement lawsuit in federal court in the Southern District of California against Molson Coors Beverage Company USA LLC ("MCBC USA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of our Company, alleging that the Keystone brand has “rebranded” itself as “Stone” and is marketing itself in a manner confusingly similar to Stone Brewing Company's registered Stone trademark. Stone Brewing Company sought treble damages and disgorgement of MCBC USA's profit from Keystone sales. MCBC USA subsequently filed an answer and counterclaims against Stone Brewing Company. On May 31, 2018, Stone Brewing Company filed a motion to dismiss MCBC USA's counterclaims and for a preliminary injunction seeking to bar MCBC USA from continuing to use “STONE” on Keystone Light cans and related marketing materials. In March 2019, the court denied Stone Brewing Company’s motion for preliminary injunction and its motion to dismiss MCBC USA's counterclaims. The jury trial began on March 7, 2022. The jury returned a verdict in which it concluded that trademark infringement had occurred and awarded Stone Brewing Company $56.0 million in damages. The jury also found that no "willful" trademark infringement had occurred. The trial court subsequently denied Stone Brewing Company’s motion for permanent injunction, motion for disgorgement of profits and motion for treble damages. Judgment was entered on September 8, 2022. Both parties filed post-trial motions, including MCBC USA’s renewed motion for

judgment as a matter of law or, in the alternative, a new trial and/or remittitur and Stone Brewing Company’s motion for partial new trial of equitable issues. The court denied both parties' post-trial motions on September 25, 2023. On October 24, 2023, MCBC USA filed a notice of appeal in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had a recorded accrued liability of $58.1 million and $56.6 million, respectively, within other liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets reflecting the best estimate of probable loss in this case based on the judgment plus associated post-judgment interest. However, it is reasonably possible that the estimate of the loss could change based on the progression of the case, including the appeals process. We will continue to monitor the status of the case and will adjust the accrual in the period in which any significant change occurs which could impact the estimate of the loss for this matter.
In January 2023, MCBC USA received a Notice of Violation / Cease and Desist Order (“Order”) from the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment’s Water Quality Control Division, alleging certain violations of the Colorado Water Quality Control Act and the Colorado Discharge Permit related to our Company’s brewery and facilities in Golden, Colorado. The Order alleged MCBC USA failed to comply with permit effluent limitations, failed to properly monitor and report sampling results, and failed to adhere to the permit compliance schedule.
Regulatory Contingencies
In June 2019, the Ontario government adopted a bill that, if enacted, would terminate a 10-year Master Framework Agreement that was originally signed in 2015 between the previous government administration and Molson Canada 2005, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of our Company, Labatt Brewing Company Limited, Sleeman Breweries Ltd. and Brewers Retail Inc. and dictates the terms of the beer distribution and retail systems in Ontario through 2025. The government has not proclaimed the bill as law and the impacts of the potential legislative changes are unknown at this time but could have a negative impact on the results of operations, cash flows and financial position of the Americas segment. Molson Canada 2005 and the other Master Framework Agreement signatories are prepared to vigorously defend our rights and pursue legal recourse, should the Master Framework Agreement be unilaterally terminated by the enactment of the 2019 legislation. The initial term of the Master Framework Agreement does not expire until December 31, 2025, and the Master Framework Agreement contains a provision requiring two-year advance notice of the government's intention to not renew the Master Framework Agreement.
Guarantees and Indemnities
We guarantee indebtedness and other obligations to banks and other third parties for some of our equity method investments and consolidated subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets include liabilities related to these guarantees of $33.4 million and $33.3 million, respectively.
Separately, related to our Cervejarias Kaiser Brasil S.A. ("Kaiser") indemnities, we accrued $11.3 million, in aggregate, as of September 30, 2023. Our Kaiser liabilities are discussed in further detail within Part II.—Item 8. Financial Statements, Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" in our Annual Report and did not significantly change during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The asset group was measured at fair value primarily using a market approach with Level 3 inputs.

Restructuring Activities
Our restructuring activities include strategic exit activities such as the disposal or wind down of certain brewery locations. We continually evaluate our cost structure and seek opportunities for efficiencies and cost savings as part of ongoing and new initiatives. As such, we may incur additional restructuring related charges or adjustments to previously recorded charges in the future, however, we are unable to estimate the amount of charges at this time.
The accrued restructuring balances as of September 30, 2023 represent expected future cash payments required to satisfy our remaining obligations, the majority of which we expect to be paid in the next 12 months.

13. Segment Reporting
Our reporting segments are based on the key geographic regions in which we operate and include the Americas and EMEA&APAC segments. Our Americas segment operates in the U.S., Canada and various countries in the Caribbean, Latin and South America and our EMEA&APAC segment operates in Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Montenegro, the Republic of Ireland, Romania, Serbia, the U.K., various other European countries and certain countries within the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific.
We also have certain activity that is not allocated to our segments, which has been reflected as “Unallocated” below. Specifically, "Unallocated" activity primarily includes financing-related costs such as interest expense and income, foreign exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances and realized and unrealized changes in fair value on instruments not designated in hedging relationships related to financing and other treasury-related activities and the unrealized changes in fair value on our commodity swaps not designated in hedging relationships recorded within cost of goods sold, which are later reclassified when realized to the segment in which the underlying exposure resides. Additionally, only the service cost component of net periodic pension and OPEB cost is reported within each operating segment and all other components remain unallocated.
Summarized Financial Information
No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022.
Consolidated net sales represent sales to third-party external customers less excise taxes. Inter-segment transactions impacting net sales and income (loss) before income taxes eliminate upon consolidation and are primarily related to the Americas segment royalties received from, and sales to the EMEA&APAC segment.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
For more than two centuries, we have been brewing beverages that unite people to celebrate all life’s moments. From Coors Light, Miller Lite, Molson Canadian, Carling, Ozujsko and Staropramen to Coors Banquet, Blue Moon Belgian White, Vizzy Hard Seltzer, Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy, Miller High Life and more, we produce many beloved and iconic beer brands. While our Company's history is rooted in beer, we offer a modern portfolio that expands beyond the beer aisle as well. As a business, our ambition is to be the first choice for our people, our consumers and our customers, and our success depends on our ability to make our products available to meet a wide range of consumer segments and occasions.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and the MD&A included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 ("Annual Report"), as well as our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this report. Due to the seasonality of our operating results, quarterly financial results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any other future period.
Unless otherwise noted in this report, any description of "we," "us" or "our" includes Molson Coors Beverage Company ("MCBC" or the "Company"), principally a holding company, and its operating and non-operating subsidiaries included within our reporting segments. Our reporting segments include Americas and EMEA&APAC. Our Americas segment operates in the U.S., Canada and various countries in the Caribbean, Latin and South America and our EMEA&APAC segment operates in Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Montenegro, the Republic of Ireland, Romania, Serbia, the U.K., various other European countries, and certain countries within the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific.
Unless otherwise indicated, information in this report is presented in USD and comparisons are to comparable prior periods. Our primary operating currencies, other than the USD, include the CAD, the GBP, and our Central European operating currencies such as the EUR, CZK, RON and RSD.
Items Affecting Reported Results
Items Affecting Consolidated Results of Operations
Cost Inflation
We have continued to incur significant cost inflation, including materials and manufacturing expenses, which negatively impacted our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, although we have experienced some moderation in the recent period. While cost inflation has been high in all of our markets, the impact to COGS on a percentage basis was higher for our EMEA&APAC segment than our Americas segment. In addition, consumers in certain markets in our EMEA&APAC segment continued to be impacted by local inflation leading to a reduction in their discretionary purchases. We continue to see the expected moderation of cost inflation in the second half of 2023 and we will continue to monitor the inflationary environment going forward.
To the extent materials and manufacturing prices continue to fluctuate, our business and financial results could continue to be materially adversely impacted. We continue to monitor these risks and rely on our risk management hedging program, increased pricing to our customers, our premiumization strategy and cost savings programs to help mitigate some of the inflationary pressures. Even if we are able to raise the prices of our products, consumers might react negatively to such price increases, which could have a material adverse effect on, among other things, our brands, reputation and sales. If our competitors maintain or substantially lower their prices, we may lose customers or be forced to lower prices to remain competitive. Our profitability may be impacted by prices that do not offset the inflationary pressures, which would negatively impact gross margins. In addition, even if we increase the prices of our products in response to increases in the cost of commodities or other cost increases, we may not be able to sustain our price increases or customers may trade down to cheaper alternatives.

Items Affecting Americas Segment Results of Operations
Truss Impairment and Sale
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we sold our controlling interest in Truss and recognized a loss of $11.1 million. During the first quarter of 2022, we recognized an impairment loss of $28.6 million related to the Truss joint venture asset group within other operating income (expense), net, of which $12.1 million was attributable to the noncontrolling interest. See Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 12, "Other Operating Income (Expense), net" and Note 3, "Investments" for further information.
Montreal/Longueuil, Québec Brewery and Distribution Centers Labor Strike
From late March 2022 until June 2022, approximately 400 unionized employees in our Montreal/Longueuil, Québec brewery and distribution centers went on strike which adversely affected our business and operations. Over the course of the third quarter of 2022, we recovered from the strike by rebuilding inventory and replenishing our retailers' shelves. As the brewery had not yet fully recovered until the end of the third quarter, results for the third quarter of 2022 were further impacted by the strike.
Keystone Litigation
During the first quarter of 2022, we accrued a liability of $56.0 million within MG&A expenses related to probable losses as a result of the ongoing Keystone litigation case. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we accrued $0.5 million and $1.5 million in associated interest related to this accrued liability, respectively. See Part I. - Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies" for further information.
Items Affecting EMEA&APAC Segment Results of Operations
Russia-Ukraine Conflict
In February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine and the conflict remains ongoing. As a result of the invasion, we suspended exports of all our brands to Russia and subsequently terminated the license to produce any of our brands in Russia. While not material to our consolidated net sales, the Russia-Ukraine conflict negatively impacted our EMEA&APAC segment net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. In addition, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has caused a negative impact to the global economy which has impacted our Company, driving further increases to materials and manufacturing expenses as discussed in more detail above.
India Entity Sale
During the first quarter of 2022, we completed the sale of our non-operating India entity in our EMEA&APAC segment resulting in an insignificant loss on disposal recorded within other operating income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The disposal group had previously been classified as held for sale during the fourth quarter of 2021.

•Net sales - Favorable impact of $39.5 million (favorable impact for EMEA&APAC of $49.5 million, partially offset by unfavorable impact for Americas of $10.0 million).
•Cost of goods sold - Unfavorable impact of $25.2 million (unfavorable impact for EMEA&APAC of $32.4 million, partially offset by favorable impact for Americas and Unallocated of $6.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively).
•MG&A - Unfavorable impact of $9.8 million (unfavorable impact for EMEA&APAC of $12.0 million, partially offset by favorable impact for Americas of $2.2 million).
•Income (loss) before income taxes - Favorable impact of $1.3 million (favorable impact for EMEA&APAC and Unallocated of $3.4 million and $3.1 million, respectively, partially offset by unfavorable impact for Americas of $5.2 million).
The impacts of foreign currency movements on our consolidated USD results described above for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily due to the weakening of the USD as compared to certain currencies throughout Europe, partially offset by the strength of the USD as compared to the CAD.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, foreign currency movements had the following impacts on our USD consolidated results:
•Net sales - Unfavorable impact of $19.9 million (unfavorable impact for Americas of $45.8 million, partially offset by favorable impact for EMEA&APAC of $25.9 million).
•Cost of goods sold - Favorable impact of $21.9 million (favorable impact for Americas and Unallocated of $34.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively, partially offset by unfavorable impact for EMEA&APAC of $14.7 million).
•MG&A - Favorable impact of $9.3 million (favorable impact for Americas of $13.9 million, partially offset by unfavorable impact for EMEA&APAC of $4.6 million).
•Income (loss) before income taxes - Favorable impact of $11.9 million (favorable impact for Unallocated and EMEA&APAC of $7.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, partially offset by unfavorable impact for Americas of $0.6 million).
The impacts of foreign currency movements on our consolidated USD results described above for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily due to the strength of the USD as compared to the CAD, partially offset by the weakening of the USD as compared to certain currencies throughout Europe.
Included in these amounts are both translational and transactional impacts of changes in foreign exchange rates. We calculate the impact of foreign exchange by translating our current period local currency results at the average exchange rates used to translate the financial statements in the comparable prior year period during the respective period throughout the year and comparing that amount with the reported amount for the period. The impact of transactional foreign currency gains and losses, including the impact of undesignated foreign currency forwards, is recorded within other non-operating income (expense), net in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Volume
Financial volume represents owned or actively managed brands sold to unrelated external customers within our geographic markets (net of returns and allowances), as well as contract brewing, wholesale/factored non-owned volume and company-owned distribution volume. This metric is presented on an STW basis to reflect the sales from our operations to our direct customers, generally distributors. We believe this metric is important and useful for investors and management because it gives an indication of the amount of beer and adjacent products that we have produced and shipped to customers. This metric excludes royalty volume, which consists of our brands produced and sold under various license and contract brewing agreements. Factored volume in our EMEA&APAC segment is the distribution of beer, wine, spirits and other products owned and produced by other companies to the on-premise channel, which is a common arrangement in the U.K.
We also utilize net sales per hectoliter and cost of goods sold per hectoliter, as well as the year over year changes in such metrics, as key metrics for analyzing our results. These metrics are calculated as net sales and cost of goods sold, respectively, per our consolidated statements of operations divided by financial volume for the respective period. We believe these metrics are important and useful for investors and management because they provide an indication of the trends in pricing and sales mix on our net sales and the trends of sales mix and other cost impacts such as inflation on our cost of goods sold.

Net sales increased 12.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to prior year, driven by favorable price and sales mix, higher financial volumes and favorable foreign currency impacts.
Financial volumes increased 3.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to prior year, primarily due to higher financial volumes in the Americas segment, partially offset by a decrease in EMEA&APAC financial volumes.
Price and sales mix favorably impacted net sales and net sales per hectoliter for the three months ended September 30, 2023 by 7.8% and 7.6%, respectively, primarily due to increased net pricing including the rollover benefit of taking several price increases in the prior year, as well as favorable sales mix driven by geographic mix.

A discussion of currency impacts on net sales is included in the "Foreign currency impact on results" section above.
Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold remained relatively flat for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to prior year, with higher financial volumes and unfavorable foreign currency impacts offset by lower cost of goods sold per hectoliter. Cost of goods sold per hectoliter decreased 3.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to prior year, including the unfavorable impact of currency of 1.3%, primarily due to changes to our unrealized mark-to-market derivative positions of $133.4 million, cost savings initiatives and the benefits of volume leverage, partially offset by cost inflation related to materials and manufacturing expenses and unfavorable mix.
Cost of goods sold increased 4.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to prior year, primarily due to higher cost of goods sold per hectoliter and higher financial volumes, partially offset by favorable foreign currency impacts. Cost of goods sold per hectoliter increased 2.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to prior year, including the favorable impact of currency of 0.4%, primarily due to cost inflation related to materials and manufacturing expenses and unfavorable mix, partially offset by changes in our unrealized mark-to-market derivative positions of $120.9 million, our cost savings initiatives and volume leverage.
Marketing, general and administrative expenses
MG&A expenses increased 13.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to prior year, primarily due to increased marketing investment on core brands and higher incentive compensation expense.
MG&A expenses increased 2.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to prior year, primarily due to higher incentive compensation expense and increased marketing investment on core and innovation brands, partially offset by cycling the recording of a $56.0 million accrued liability in the prior year related to potential losses as a result of the ongoing Keystone litigation case.
Other operating income (expense), net
See Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 12, "Other Operating Income (Expense), net" for detail of our other operating income (expense), net.
Total non-operating income (expense), net
Total non-operating expense, net decreased 15.6% and 9.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to prior year, respectively, primarily due to lower net interest expense driven by higher interest income as well as the repayment of debt as a result of our continued deleveraging actions and the favorable impact of transactional foreign currency impacts, partially offset by lower pension and OPEB non-service net benefit, including the cycling of a prior year settlement gain recorded as a result of an annuity purchase for a portion of our U.S. pension plan.

Effective tax rate21 %20 %22 %20 %
The higher effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the impact of geographic mix with higher pretax income in higher tax rate jurisdictions, partially offset by the net effect of discrete tax items in the period. We recognized $15.5 million discrete tax benefit in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $5.9 million discrete tax expense in the three months ended September 30, 2022. We recognized $7.6 million discrete tax benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $2.7 million discrete tax expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Our tax rate can be volatile and may change with, among other things, the amount and source of pretax income or loss, our ability to utilize foreign tax credits, excess tax benefits or deficiencies from share-based compensation, changes in tax laws and the movement of liabilities established pursuant to accounting guidance for uncertain tax positions as statutes of limitations expire, positions are effectively settled, or when additional information becomes available. There are proposed or pending tax law changes in various jurisdictions and other changes to regulatory environments in countries in which we do business that, if enacted, could have an impact on our effective tax rate.
Refer to Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 9, "Income Tax" for discussion regarding our effective tax rate.

Unallocated
We have certain activity that is not allocated to our segments, which has been reflected as "Unallocated" below. Specifically, "Unallocated" activity primarily includes financing-related costs such as interest expense and income, foreign exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances and realized and unrealized changes in fair value on instruments not designated in hedging relationships related to financing and other treasury-related activities and the unrealized changes in fair value on our commodity swaps not designated in hedging relationships recorded within cost of goods sold, which are later reclassified when realized to the segment in which the underlying exposure resides. Additionally, only the service cost component of net periodic pension and OPEB cost is reported within each operating segment, and all other components remain unallocated.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity include cash provided by operating activities and access to external capital. We continue to monitor world events which may create credit or economic challenges that could adversely impact our profit or operating cash flows and our ability to obtain additional liquidity. We currently believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and cash provided by short-term and long-term borrowings, when necessary, will be adequate to meet our ongoing operating requirements, scheduled principal and interest payments on debt, anticipated dividend payments, capital expenditures and other obligations for the twelve months subsequent to the date of the issuance of this quarterly report and our long-term liquidity requirements. We do not have any restrictions that prevent or limit our ability to declare or pay dividends.
While a significant portion of our cash flows from operating activities are generated within the U.S., our cash balances include cash held outside the U.S. and in currencies other than the USD. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 66% of our cash and cash equivalents were located outside the U.S., largely denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have had and may continue to have a material impact on these foreign cash balances. Cash balances in foreign countries are often subject to additional restrictions and covenants. We may, therefore, have difficulties timely repatriating cash held outside the U.S., and such repatriation may be subject to tax. These limitations may affect our ability to fully utilize our cash resources for needs in the U.S. and other countries and may adversely affect our liquidity. To the extent necessary, we accrue for tax consequences on the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries as they are earned. We may utilize tax

planning and financing strategies in an effort to ensure that our worldwide cash is available in the locations in which it is needed. We periodically review and evaluate these plans and strategies, including externally committed and non-committed credit agreements accessible by our Company and each of our operating subsidiaries. We believe these financing arrangements, along with the cash generated from the operations of our U.S. business, are sufficient to fund our current cash needs in the U.S.
Cash Flows and Use of Cash
Our business historically generates positive operating cash flows each year and our debt maturities are generally of a longer-term nature. However, our liquidity could be impacted significantly by the risk factors we described in Part I—Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report, Part II.—Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this report and the items listed above.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $1,604.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $487.0 million compared to $1,117.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to higher net income and the favorable timing of working capital in the Americas, partially offset by higher income taxes paid.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities of $668.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $163.6 million compared to $504.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to cash paid in the current year for acquisitions, partially offset by lower capital expenditures as a result of the timing of capital projects.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities of $728.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $55.8 million compared to $672.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to higher prior year borrowings under our commercial paper program, higher Class B common stock share repurchases and higher dividend payments, partially offset by lower net debt repayments.
Capital Resources, including Material Cash Requirements
Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of September 30, 2023, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $801.7 million, compared to $600.0 million as of December 31, 2022 and $525.2 million as of September 30, 2022. The increase in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 was primarily due to the net cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by capital expenditures, net debt repayments, including the repayment of our CAD 500 million 2.84% notes which matured in July 2023, dividend payments, cash paid for acquisitions, as well as Class B common stock repurchases. The increase in cash and cash equivalents from September 30, 2022 was also offset by the repayment of our commercial paper program in the prior year.
Borrowings
We repaid our CAD 500 million 2.84% notes upon their maturity on July 15, 2023 using cash on hand. Refer to Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 7, "Debt" for details.

Based on the credit profile of our lenders that are party to our credit facilities, we are confident in our ability to continue to draw on our revolving credit facility if the need arises. On June 26, 2023, we amended and restated our multi-currency revolving credit facility. Among other things, the term was extended through June 26, 2028, and the borrowing capacity was increased to $2.0 billion. This $2.0 billion revolving credit facility amended our pre-existing $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, which would have matured on July 7, 2024. On September 28, 2023, we amended our commercial paper program, which reduces borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility, to a maximum borrowing capacity of $2.0 billion to borrow at any time at variable interest rates. The $150.0 million sub-facility available for the issuance of letters of credit remains unchanged. As of September 30, 2023, we had $2.0 billion available to draw on our $2.0 billion revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2023, we had no borrowings drawn on this revolving credit facility and no commercial paper borrowings.

We intend to further utilize our cross-border, cross currency cash pool as well as our commercial paper programs for liquidity as needed. We also have CAD, GBP and USD overdraft facilities across several banks should we need additional short-term liquidity.
Under the terms of each of our debt facilities, we must comply with certain restrictions. These include customary events of default and specified representations, warranties and covenants, as well as covenants that restrict our ability to incur certain additional priority indebtedness (certain thresholds of secured consolidated net tangible assets), certain leverage threshold percentages, create or permit liens on assets and restrictions on mergers, acquisitions and certain types of sale lease-back transactions.
The maximum net debt to EBITDA leverage ratio, as defined by the amended and restated revolving credit facility agreement, was 4.00x as of September 30, 2023 which remained unchanged from the requirement as of December 31, 2022. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all of these restrictions and covenants, have met such financial ratios and have met all debt payment obligations. All of our outstanding senior notes as of September 30, 2023 rank pari-passu.
See Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 7, "Debt" for further discussion of our borrowings and available sources of borrowing, including lines of credit.
Guarantees
We guarantee indebtedness and other obligations to banks and other third parties for some of our equity method investments and consolidated subsidiaries. See Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies" for further discussion.
Material Cash Requirements from Contractual and Other Obligations
There were no material changes to our material cash requirements from contractual and other obligations outside the ordinary course of business or due to factors similar in nature to inflation, changing prices on operations or changes in the remaining terms of the contracts since December 31, 2022, as reported in Part II.— Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, "Material Cash Requirements from Contractual and Other Obligations" in our Annual Report.
Credit Rating
Our current long-term credit ratings are BBB/Stable Outlook, Baa3/Stable Outlook and BBB(Low)/Stable Outlook with Standard & Poor's, Moody's and DBRS, respectively. Our short-term credit ratings are A-2, Prime-3 and R-2(low), respectively. A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, and it may be revised or withdrawn at any time by the applicable rating agency.

Pursuant to the indenture dated May 3, 2012 (as amended, the "May 2012 Indenture"), MCBC issued its outstanding 5.0% senior notes due 2042. Additionally, pursuant to the indenture dated July 7, 2016 ("July 2016 Indenture"), MCBC issued its outstanding 3.0% senior notes due 2026, 4.2% senior notes due 2046 and 1.25% senior notes due 2024. The issuances of the senior notes issued under the May 2012 Indenture and the July 2016 Indenture were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These senior notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries of MCBC, which are listed in Exhibit 22 (the "Subsidiary Guarantors", and together with the Parent Issuer, the "Obligor Group"). "Parent Issuer" in this section is specifically referring to MCBC in its capacity as the issuer of the senior notes under the May 2012 Indenture and the July 2016 Indenture. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors is 100% owned by the Parent Issuer. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several.
None of our other outstanding debt was issued in a transaction that was registered with the SEC, and such other outstanding debt is issued or otherwise generally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Obligor Group or other consolidated subsidiaries of MCBC. These other guarantees are also full and unconditional and joint and several.

The senior notes and related guarantees rank pari-passu with all other unsubordinated debt of the Obligor Group and senior to all future subordinated debt of the Obligor Group. The guarantees can be released upon the sale or transfer of a Subsidiary Guarantors' capital stock or substantially all of its assets, or if such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a guarantor under our other outstanding debt.
See Part I.—Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 7, "Debt" for details of all debt issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2023.
The following summarized financial information relates to the Obligor Group as of September 30, 2023 on a combined basis, after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances between the Obligor Group, and excluding the investments in and equity in the earnings of any non-guarantor subsidiaries. The balances and transactions with non-guarantor subsidiaries have been separately presented.

Capital Expenditures
We incurred $428.4 million, and paid $494.1 million, for capital improvement projects worldwide in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, excluding capital spending by equity method joint ventures, representing a decrease of $57.8 million from the $486.2 million of capital expenditures incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily due to the timing of capital projects. We continue to focus on where and how we employ our planned capital expenditures, with an emphasis on strengthening our focus on required returns on invested capital as we determine how to best allocate cash within the business.

Interest Rate Risk
In May 2023, we amended our 2026 forward starting interest rate swaps to replace LIBOR with SOFR. Subsequent to this transition, we are no longer exposed to LIBOR. For the period ended September 30, 2023, the following table presents our fixed rate debt and forward starting interest rate swaps as well as the impact of an absolute 1% adverse change in interest rates on their respective fair values. For the period ended December 31, 2022, the following table presents our fixed rate debt and forward starting interest rate swaps and the impact of an absolute 1% adverse change in interest rates on our forward starting interest rate swaps and a 10% adverse change in the yield on our fixed rate debt. Notional amounts and fair values are presented in USD based on the applicable exchange rates as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See Part I - Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 7. "Debt" for the maturity dates of our outstanding debt instruments.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applies its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures that, by their nature, can only provide reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives. Also, we have investments in certain unconsolidated entities that we do not control or manage.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the three months ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1)On February 17, 2022, our Company's Board of Directors ("the Board") approved a share repurchase program to repurchase up to an aggregate of $200 million of our Company's Class B common stock, excluding brokerage commissions and excise taxes, through March 31, 2026, with the program primarily intended to offset annual employee equity award grants. This program was superseded by the new share repurchase program approved by our Company's Board of Directors on September 29, 2023, authorizing the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $2.0 billion of our Class B common stock, excluding brokerage commissions and excise taxes, with an expected program term of five years.
The number, price, structure and timing of the repurchases under the new program, if any, will be at our sole discretion and future repurchases will be evaluated by us depending on market conditions, liquidity needs, restrictions under our debt arrangements and other factors. Share repurchases may be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase authorization does not oblige us to acquire any particular amount of our Company's Class B common stock. The Board may suspend, modify or terminate the new repurchase program at any time without prior notice.
