Accounts Receivable Factoring

Accounts Receivable Factoring

The Company has Receivables Factoring arrangements, pursuant to which certain receivables are sold to banks without recourse in exchange for cash. Transactions under the Receivables Factoring arrangements are accounted for as sales under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets, with the sold receivables removed from the Company’s balance sheet. Under these Receivables Factoring arrangements, the Company does not maintain any beneficial interest in the receivables sold. The banks’ purchase of eligible receivables is subject to a maximum amount of uncollected receivables. The Company services the receivables on behalf of the banks, but otherwise maintains no significant continuing involvement with respect to the receivables. Sale proceeds that are representative of the fair value of factored receivables, less a factoring fee, are reflected in Net cash provided by operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, while sale proceeds in excess of the fair value of factored receivables are reflected in Net cash used in financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company currently has two active Receivables Factoring arrangements. One arrangement allows for the factoring of up to $25 million of uncollected receivables originated from the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”) region. The second arrangement allows for the factoring of up to €150 million of uncollected receivables originated from the EMEA and Asia-Pacific regions. With respect to the second arrangement, the Company may be required to maintain a portion of sales proceeds as deposits in a restricted cash account that is released to the Company as it satisfies its obligations as servicer of sold receivables, which totaled $0 million and $12 million as of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is classified within Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, the Company received cash proceeds of $765 million and $814 million, respectively, from the sales of accounts receivables under its factoring arrangements. As of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were a total of $64 million and $24 million, respectively, of uncollected receivables that had been sold and removed from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As servicer of sold receivables, the Company had $113 million and $141 million of obligations that were not yet remitted to banks as of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. These obligations are included within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in such obligations reflected within Net cash used in financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Fees incurred in connection with these arrangements were not significant.
