Receivables Facility

The Company has an accounts receivable sales facility (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified as of September 30, 2020, the "Receivables Facility") with certain unaffiliated financial institutions (the "Purchasers") for the sale of commercial accounts receivable in the United States. Under the Receivables Facility, certain of the Company's subsidiaries (the "Sellers") sell accounts receivable to DXC Receivables LLC ("Receivables SPV"), a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote entity, in a true sale. Receivables SPV subsequently sells certain of the receivables in their entirety to the Purchasers pursuant to a receivables purchase agreement. The financial obligations of Receivables SPV to the Purchasers under the Receivables Facility are limited to the assets it owns and non-recourse to the Company. Sales of receivables by Receivables SPV occur continuously and are settled on a monthly basis. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, Receivables SPV amended the Receivables Facility (the "Amendment") to decrease the facility limit from $600 million to $500 million and extend the termination date to August 5, 2021. As of the second quarter of fiscal 2020, there is no deferred purchase price ("DPP") for receivables as the entire purchase price is paid in cash when the receivables are sold to the Purchasers. DPPs were previously realized by Receivables SPV upon the ultimate collection of the underlying receivables sold to the Purchasers. Cash receipts on the DPP were classified as cash flows from investing activities.

The amount available under the Receivables Facility fluctuates over time based on the total amount of eligible receivables generated during the normal course of business after deducting excess concentrations. As of September 30, 2020, the total availability under the Receivables Facility was $371 million, and the amount sold to the Purchasers was $452 million, which was derecognized from the Company's balance sheet. As of September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $81 million liability within accounts payable because the amount of cash proceeds received by the Company under the Receivables Facility was more than the total availability. The Receivables Facility is scheduled to terminate on August 5, 2021, but provides for one or more optional one-year extensions, if agreed to by the Purchasers. The Company uses the proceeds from the sale of receivables under the Receivables Facility for general corporate purposes.

The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to the short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded.

While the Company guarantees certain non-financial performance obligations of the Sellers, the Purchasers bear customer credit risk associated with the receivables sold under the Receivables Facility and have recourse in the event of credit-related customer non-payment solely to the assets of the Receivables SPV.

The following table is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of the DPP for the Receivables Facility:

Milano Receivables Facility

On June 5, 2020, the Company entered into an accounts receivable securitization facility (the "Milano Facility") with certain unaffiliated financial institutions (the "Milano Purchasers") for the sale of commercial accounts receivable related to HHS contracts in the United States. The Milano Facility is scheduled to terminate on June 4, 2021, but provides for one or more optional one-year extensions, if agreed to by the Purchasers. The Milano Facility has a facility limit of $275 million. Under the Milano Facility, certain of the Company's subsidiaries (the "Milano Sellers") sell HHS accounts receivable to Milano Receivables Funding LLC ("Milano Receivables SPV"), a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote entity, in a true sale. Milano Receivables SPV subsequently sells certain of the receivables in their entirety to the Milano Purchasers pursuant to a receivables purchase agreement. The financial obligations of Milano Receivables SPV to the Milano Purchasers under the Milano Facility are limited to the assets it owns and non-recourse to the Company. Sales of HHS receivables by Milano Receivables SPV occur continuously and are settled on a monthly basis.

The amount available under the Milano Facility fluctuates over time based on the total amount of eligible receivables generated during the normal course of business after deducting excess concentrations. As of September 30, 2020, the amount sold to the Milano Purchasers was approximately $272 million. On October 1, 2020, and in connection with the consummation of the sale of the HHS Business, and at the direction of the purchaser of the HHS Business, the Milano Facility was terminated. For more information, refer to Note 22 - "Subsequent Events."

The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to the short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded.

While the Company guarantees certain non-financial performance obligations of the Milano Sellers, the Milano Purchasers bear customer credit risk associated with the receivables sold under the Milano Facility and have recourse in the event of credit-related customer non-payment solely to the assets of the Milano Receivables SPV.

German Receivables Facility

On October 1, 2019, the Company executed an accounts receivable securitization facility (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified as of September 30, 2020, the "DE Receivables Facility") with certain unaffiliated financial institutions (the "DE Purchasers") for the sale of commercial accounts receivable in Germany. The DE Receivables Facility has a facility limit of €150 million (approximately $175 million as of September 30, 2020). Under the DE Receivables Facility, certain of the Company's subsidiaries organized in Germany (the "DE Sellers") sell accounts receivable to DXC ARFacility Designated Activity Company ("DE Receivables SPV"), a trust-owned bankruptcy-remote entity, in a true sale. DE Receivables SPV subsequently sells certain of the receivables in their entirety to the DE Purchasers pursuant to a receivables purchase agreement. Sales of receivables by DE Receivables SPV occur continuously and are settled on a monthly basis. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, DE Receivables SPV amended the DE Receivables Facility. Under the terms of the DE Receivables Facility, there is no longer any DPP for receivables as the entire purchase price is paid in cash when the receivables are sold to the DE Purchasers. Prior to the Amendment, DPPs were realized by DE Receivables SPV upon the ultimate collection of the underlying receivables sold to the DE Purchasers. Cash receipts on the DPPs were classified as cash flows from investing activities. The DPP balance was $102 million before the Amendment was executed. Upon execution of the Amendment, the Purchasers extinguished the DPP balance and returned title to the applicable underlying receivables to DE Receivables SPV. The DPP extinguishment was classified as a non-cash investing activity, please refer to Note 19 - "Cash Flows."

The amount available under the DE Receivables Facility fluctuates over time based on the total amount of eligible receivables generated during the normal course of business after deducting excess concentrations. As of September 30, 2020, the total availability under the DE Receivables Facility was approximately $120 million, and the amount sold to the DE Purchasers was $124 million, which was derecognized from the Company's balance sheet. As of September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $4 million liability within accounts payable because the amount of cash proceeds received by the Company under the DE Receivables Facility was more than the total availability. The DE Receivables Facility is scheduled to terminate on September 30, 2021, but provides for one or more optional one-year extensions, if agreed to by the DE Purchasers. The Company uses the proceeds from DE Receivables SPV's sale of receivables under the DE Receivables Facility for general corporate purposes.

The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to the short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded.

Certain obligations of DE Sellers under the DE Receivables Facility and certain DXC subsidiaries located in Germany, as initial servicers, are guaranteed by the Company under a performance guaranty, made in favor of an administrative agent on behalf of the DE Purchasers. However, the performance guaranty does not cover DE Receivables SPV’s obligations to pay yield, fees or invested amounts to the administrative agent or any of the DE Purchasers.
