Strong balance sheet; returned $2.0 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases in the quarter
DEERFIELD, Ill. – Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) today announced third-quarter 2021 sales and revenues of $12.4 billion, a 25% increase compared with $9.9 billion in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume, driven by higher end-user demand for equipment and services, and favorable price realization.
Operating profit margin was 13.4% for the third quarter of 2021, compared with 10.0% for the third quarter of 2020. Third-quarter 2021 profit per share was $2.60, compared with third-quarter 2020 profit per share of $1.22. Adjusted profit per share in the third quarter of 2021 was $2.66, compared with third-quarter 2020 adjusted profit per share of $1.52. Third-quarter 2021 adjusted profit per share of $2.66 reflected strong operational performance and a lower-than-expected effective tax rate. Adjusted profit per share for both quarters excluded restructuring costs, while the third quarter of 2020 also excluded remeasurement losses of $0.12 per share, resulting from the settlements of pension obligations. Please see a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the appendix on page 13.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, enterprise operating cash flow was $5.8 billion and the company ended the third quarter with $9.4 billion of enterprise cash. In the quarter, the company repurchased $1.4 billion of Caterpillar common stock and paid dividends of $0.6 billion.
“Our global team continues to execute our long-term strategy for profitable growth while working to mitigate supply chain challenges as we serve our customers,” said Chairman and CEO Jim Umpleby. “Our third-quarter results reflect higher sales and revenues across our three primary segments and in all regions.”

Consolidated Operating Profit
consopprofit3q2021a.jpg
The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated operating profit between the third quarter of 2020 (at left) and the third quarter of 2021 (at right). Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company’s Board of Directors and employees. The bar titled Other includes consolidating adjustments and Machinery, Energy & Transportation’s other operating (income) expenses.
Operating profit for the third quarter of 2021 was $1.664 billion, an increase of $679 million, or 69%, compared with $985 million in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume and favorable price realization, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative (SG&A) and research and development (R&D) expenses as well as higher manufacturing costs.
Unfavorable manufacturing costs reflected higher variable labor and burden, primarily freight, and higher period manufacturing and material costs, partially offset by favorable cost absorption and lower warranty expense. Cost absorption was favorable as inventory increased during the third quarter of 2021.
The increase in both SG&A/R&D expenses and period manufacturing costs was mainly driven by higher short-term incentive compensation expense, which was reinstated in 2021, and investments aligned with the company's strategy for profitable growth, including acquisition-related expenses.

Other Profit/Loss and Tax Items
Other income (expense) in the third quarter of 2021 was income of $225 million, compared with income of $14 million in the third quarter of 2020. The change was primarily due to favorable impacts from foreign currency exchange gains (losses), the absence of remeasurement losses resulting from the settlements of pension obligations that occurred in the third quarter of 2020 and favorable pension and other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plan costs.
The company experienced foreign currency exchange net gains in the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to the euro, compared with net losses in the third quarter of 2020.
The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2021 reflected a lower estimated annual tax rate of 25%, compared with 31% for the third quarter of 2020, excluding the discrete items discussed below. The comparative tax rate for full-year 2020 was approximately 28%. The decrease in the estimated annual tax rate from full-year 2020 was primarily related to changes in the expected geographic mix of profits from a tax perspective for 2021.
In the third quarter of 2021, the company recorded a $39 million benefit due to the change from the second-quarter estimated annual tax rate of 26%. In addition, the company recorded discrete tax benefits of $36 million to reflect changes in estimates related to prior year U.S. taxes in the third quarter of 2021 compared to $80 million in the third quarter of 2020. In the third quarter of 2020, a discrete tax benefit of $13 million was recorded for settlement of stock-based compensation awards along with a $12 million tax benefit related to the $77 million of remeasurement losses resulting from the settlements of pension obligations.

Construction Industries’ total sales were $5.255 billion in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $1.199 billion, or 30%, compared with $4.056 billion in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was due to higher sales volume and favorable price realization. The increase in sales volume was driven by higher end-user demand and the impact from changes in dealer inventories. Overall, dealers decreased inventories more during the third quarter of 2020 than during the third quarter of 2021.
In North America, sales increased due to higher sales volume and favorable price realization. Higher sales volume was driven by higher end-user demand from improving non-residential construction, as well as continued strength in residential construction and the impact from changes in dealer inventories. Dealers decreased inventories more during the third quarter of 2020 than during the third quarter of 2021.
Sales increased in Latin America mostly due to higher sales volume led by the impact of changes in dealer inventories and higher end-user demand across the region. Dealers decreased inventories during the third quarter of 2020, compared with an increase during the third quarter of 2021.
In EAME, sales increased due to higher sales volume from the impact of changes in dealer inventories and higher end-user demand. Dealers decreased inventories during the third quarter of 2020, compared with an increase during the third quarter of 2021.
Sales decreased in Asia/Pacific mainly due to lower sales volume, reflecting the impact of changes in dealer inventory. Dealers decreased inventories during the third quarter of 2021, compared with an increase during the third quarter of 2020. Lower sales in China, driven by lower end-user demand and impacts of changes in dealer inventory, were partially offset by increased sales across the rest of the region.
Construction Industries’ profit was $859 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $274 million, or 47%, compared with $585 million in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly due to higher sales volume and

Energy & Transportation’s total sales were $5.077 billion in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $916 million, or 22%, compared with $4.161 billion in the third quarter of 2020. Sales increased across all applications and inter-segment sales except Power Generation, which decreased slightly.
Oil and Gas – Sales increased for reciprocating engines aftermarket parts, primarily in North America, turbines and turbine-related services and reciprocating engines used in gas compression.
Power Generation – Sales decreased slightly due to timing of turbines and turbine-related services. Reciprocating engines were about flat compared to the third quarter of 2020, with aftermarket parts slightly higher offset by slightly lower engine sales.
Industrial – Sales were up due to higher demand across all regions.
Transportation – Sales increased in rail services and marine.
Energy & Transportation’s profit was $696 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $204 million, or 41%, compared with $492 million in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was due to higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs and higher SG&A/R&D expenses. Increased manufacturing costs were mainly driven by higher variable labor and burden, primarily freight, period manufacturing costs and material, partially offset by the absence of inventory write-downs that occurred in the third quarter of 2020. In addition, segment profit was favorably impacted by other operating income/expense.
Both SG&A/R&D expenses and period manufacturing costs were driven by higher short-term incentive compensation expense and investments aligned with growth initiatives, including acquisition-related expenses.

Financial Products’ segment revenues were $762 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $38 million, or 5%, from the third quarter of 2020.
Financial Products’ segment profit was $173 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $31 million, or 22%, compared with $142 million in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly due to a favorable impact from returned or repossessed equipment, lower provision for credit losses at Cat Financial and higher net yield on average earning assets. These favorable impacts were partially offset by an increase in SG&A expenses primarily due to higher short-term incentive compensation expense.
At the end of the third quarter of 2021, past dues at Cat Financial were 2.41%, compared with 3.81% at the end of the third quarter of 2020. Past dues decreased across all portfolio segments as global markets generally improved. Write-offs, net of recoveries, were $76 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared with $125 million for the third quarter of 2020. As of September 30, 2021, Cat Financial's allowance for credit losses totaled $378 million, or 1.41% of finance receivables, compared with $402 million, or 1.46% of finance receivables, at June 30, 2021. The allowance for credit losses at year-end 2020 was $479 million, or 1.77% of finance receivables.
Corporate Items and Eliminations
Expense for corporate items and eliminations was $293 million in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $68 million from the third quarter of 2020. Higher corporate costs were more than offset by lower restructuring costs, favorable impacts of segment methodology differences and a favorable change in fair value adjustments related to deferred compensation plans.

APPENDIX
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The following definitions are provided for the non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures for other companies. Management does not intend these items to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures.
The company believes it is important to separately quantify the profit impact of two significant items in order for the company’s results to be meaningful to readers. These items consist of (i) restructuring costs, which were incurred to generate longer-term benefits and (ii) remeasurement losses resulting from the settlements of pension obligations in the third quarter of 2020. The company does not consider these items indicative of earnings from ongoing business activities and believes the non-GAAP measure provides investors with useful perspective on underlying business results and trends and aids with assessing the company’s period-over-period results. The company intends to discuss adjusted profit per share for the fourth quarter and full-year 2021, excluding mark-to-market gains or losses for remeasurement of pension and other postemployment benefit plans along with any other discrete items.
Reconciliations of adjusted results to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are as follows:

Supplemental Consolidating Data
The company is providing supplemental consolidating data for the purpose of additional analysis. The data has been grouped as follows:
Consolidated – Caterpillar Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Machinery, Energy & Transportation (ME&T) – The company defines ME&T as it is presented in the supplemental data as Caterpillar Inc. and its subsidiaries, excluding Financial Products. ME&T’s information relates to the design, manufacturing and marketing of its products.
Financial Products – The company defines Financial Products as it is presented in the supplemental data as its finance and insurance subsidiaries, primarily Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation (Cat Financial) and Caterpillar Insurance Holdings Inc. (Insurance Services). Financial Products’ information relates to the financing to customers and dealers for the purchase and lease of Caterpillar and other equipment.
Consolidating Adjustments – Eliminations of transactions between ME&T and Financial Products.
The nature of the ME&T and Financial Products businesses is different, especially with regard to the financial position and cash flow items. Caterpillar management utilizes this presentation internally to highlight these differences. The company believes this presentation will assist readers in understanding its business.
Pages 14 to 24 reconcile ME&T and Financial Products to Caterpillar Inc. consolidated financial information.
