NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(amounts in thousands, except share data or if otherwise indicated)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements provided in this report include the accounts of The Hershey Company (the “Company,” “Hershey,” “we” or “us”) and our majority-owned subsidiaries and entities in which we have a controlling financial interest after the elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. We have a controlling financial interest if we own a majority of the outstanding voting common stock and minority shareholders do not have substantive participating rights, we have significant control through contractual or economic interests in which we are the primary beneficiary or we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity'sentity’s economic performance. We use the equity method of accounting when we have a 20% to 50% interest in other companies and exercise significant influence. Other investments that are not controlled, and over which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for under the cost method. Both equity and cost method investments are included as Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and with the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not contain certain information and disclosures required by GAAP for comprehensive financial statements. The financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the indicated periods.
Operating results for the quarter ended July 4, 20213, 2022 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 20212022 because of seasonal effects on our business. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (our “2020“2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K”), which provides a more complete understanding of our accounting policies, financial position, operating results and other matters.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19"(“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. We continue to actively monitor COVID-19 and its potential impact on our operations and financial results. Employee health and safety remains our first priority while we continue our efforts to support community food supplies. Since the onset of COVID-19, there has been minimal disruption to our supply chain network, and all our manufacturing plants are currently open. However, beginning in 2021 and continuing into 2022, ongoing strong demand for consumer goods and the effects of COVID-19 mitigation strategies have led to broad-based supply chain disruptions across the U.S. and globally, including inflation on many consumer products, labor shortages and demand outpacing supply. We are also workingcontinue to work closely with our business units, contract manufacturers, distributors, contractors and other external business partners to minimize the potential impact on our business.
The ultimate impact that COVID-19 will have on our consolidated financial statements remains uncertain and ultimately will be dictated by the length and severity of the pandemic, including broad-based supply chain disruptions, rising levels of inflation, the spread of COVID-19 variants or potential resurgences, as well as the economic recovery and actions taken in response by local, state and national governments around the world, including the distribution of vaccinations. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of these potential and evolving impacts to our business and consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and related disclosures.Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.

ASU 2021-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those annual periods. This ASU should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the date of adoption.

As a result, we intend to adopt the provisions of this ASU in the first quarter of 2023.
No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year had or is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURESDIVESTITURE
2021 Activity
Pretzels Inc.
On December 14, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Pretzels Inc. (“Pretzels”), previously a privately held company that manufactures and sells pretzels and other salty snacks for other branded products and private labels in the United States. Pretzels is an industry leader in the pretzel category with a product portfolio that includes filled, gluten free and seasoned pretzels, as well as extruded snacks that complements Hershey’s snacks portfolio. Based in Bluffton, Indiana, Pretzels operates 3 manufacturing locations in Indiana and Kansas. Pretzels provides Hershey deep pretzel category and product expertise and the manufacturing capabilities to support brand growth and future pretzel innovation. The initial cash consideration paid for Pretzels totaled $304,334 and consisted of cash on hand and short-term borrowings. Acquisition-related costs for the Pretzels acquisition were immaterial.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination and, accordingly, Pretzels has been included within the North America Salty Snacks segment from the date of acquisition. The purchase consideration was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

(amounts in thousands, except share data or if otherwise indicated)
The purchase price allocation presented above is preliminary. The measurement period adjustments to the initial allocation are based on more detailed information obtained about the specific assets acquired. We are in the process of evaluating additional information necessary to finalize the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date including, but not limited to, post-closing adjustments to the working capital acquired including certain holdbacks. The final fair value determination could result in material adjustments to the values presented in the preliminary purchase price allocation, including other intangible assets, goodwill and the related tax impact of such adjustments. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation by the end of the third quarter of 2022.
Goodwill was determined as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired (including the identifiable intangible assets). A portion of goodwill derived from this acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes and reflects the value of leveraging our brand building expertise, supply chain capabilities and retail relationships to accelerate growth and access to the portfolio of Pretzels’ products.
Other intangible assets include trademarks valued at $5,700 and customer relationships valued at $20,400. Trademarks were assigned an estimated useful life of five years and customer relationships were assigned an estimated useful life of 19 years.

Dot’s is the fastest-growing scale brand in the pretzel category and complements Hershey’s snacks portfolio. The initial cash consideration paid for Dot’s totaled $894,166 and consisted of cash on hand and short-term borrowings. Acquisition-related costs for the Dot’s acquisition were immaterial.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination and, accordingly, Dot’s has been included within the North America Salty Snacks segment from the date of acquisition. The purchase consideration was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Initial Allocation (1) | | Adjustments | | Updated Allocation |
Goodwill | $ | 303,345 | | | $ | (14,960) | | | $ | 288,385 | |

Net assets acquired | $ | 894,166 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 894,166 | |
(1) As reported in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The purchase price allocation presented above is preliminary. The measurement period adjustments, specifically to other intangible assets and resulting impact on the valuation of goodwill, are principally related to the refinement of certain assumptions in the value of customer relationships based on an analysis of historical customer-specific data. The remaining measurement period adjustments to the initial allocation are based on more detailed information obtained about the specific assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We are in the process of evaluating additional information necessary to finalize the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date including, but not limited to, post-closing adjustments to the working capital acquired including certain holdbacks. The final fair value determination could result in material adjustments to the values presented in the preliminary purchase price allocation, including other intangible assets and goodwill.

5. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
We are exposed to market risks arising principally from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. We use certain derivative instruments to manage these risks. These include interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk, foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk, and commodities futures and options contracts to manage commodity market price risk exposures.
In entering into these contracts, we have assumed the risk that might arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. We mitigate this risk by entering into exchanged-tradedexchange-traded contracts with collateral posting requirements and/or by performing financial assessments prior to contract execution, conducting periodic evaluations of counterparty performance and maintaining a diverse portfolio of qualified counterparties. We do not expect any significant losses from counterparty defaults.
Commodity Price Risk
We enter into commodities futures and options contracts and other commodity derivative instruments to reduce the effect of future price fluctuations associated with the purchase of raw materials, energy requirements and transportation services. We generally hedge commodity price risks for 3- to 24-month periods. Our open commodity derivative contracts had a notional value of $387,871$479,441 as of July 4, 20213, 2022 and $279,843$313,200 as of December 31, 2020.2021.
Derivatives used to manage commodity price risk are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. Therefore, the changes in fair value of these derivatives are recorded as incurred within cost of sales. As discussed in Note 13, we define our segment income to exclude gains and losses on commodity derivatives until the related inventory is sold, at which time the related gains and losses are reflected within segment income. This enables us to continue to align the derivative gains and losses with the underlying economic exposure being hedged and thereby eliminate the mark-to-market volatility within our reported segment income.
Foreign Exchange Price Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk related to our international operations, including non-functional currency intercompany debt and other non-functional currency transactions of certain subsidiaries. Principal currencies hedged include the euro, Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, British pound, Brazilian real, Malaysian ringgit, Mexican peso and Swiss franc. We typically utilize foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge these exposures for periods ranging from 3 to 12 months. The contracts are either designated as cash flow hedges or are undesignated. The net notional amount of foreign exchange contracts accounted for as cash flow hedges was $183,136$111,898 at July 4, 20213, 2022 and $130,131$94,623 at December 31, 2020.2021. The effective portion of the changes in fair value on these contracts is recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the hedged transactions affect earnings. The net notional amount of foreign exchange contracts that are not designated as accounting hedges was $1,775$358 at July 4, 20213, 2022 and $2,519$2,993 at December 31, 2020.2021. The change in fair value on these instruments is recorded directly in cost of sales or selling, marketing and administrative expense, depending on the nature of the underlying exposure.

THE HERSHEY COMPANY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
(amounts in thousands, except share data or if otherwise indicated)
Interest Rate Risk
We manage our targeted mix of fixed and floating rate debt with debt issuances and by entering into fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps in order to mitigate fluctuations in earnings and cash flows that may result from interest rate volatility. These swaps are designated as fair value hedges, for which the gain or loss on the derivative and the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item are recognized in current earnings as interest expense (income), net. In December 2020, our fixed-to-floating interest rate swap matured in connection with the repayment of certain long-term debt upon its maturity. Therefore, as of July 4, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had 0 open interest rate swap derivative instruments in a fair value hedging relationship.
In order to manage interest rate exposure, in previous years we utilized interest rate swap agreements to protect against unfavorable interest rate changes relating to forecasted debt transactions. These swaps, which were settled upon issuance of the related debt, were designated as cash flow hedges and the gains and losses that were deferred in other comprehensive income are being recognized as an adjustment to interest expense over the same period that the hedged interest payments affect earnings.
Equity Price Risk
We are exposed to market price changes in certain broad market indices related to our deferred compensation obligations to our employees. To mitigate this risk, we use equity swap contracts to hedge the portion of the exposure that is linked to market-level equity returns. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes and are entered into for periods of 3 to 12 months. The change in fair value of these derivatives is recorded in selling, marketing and administrative expense, together with the change in the related liabilities. The notional amount of the contracts outstanding at July 4, 20213, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 was $22,882$23,934 and $30,194,$24,975, respectively.

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting guidance on fair value measurements requires that financial assets and liabilities be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories of the fair value hierarchy: | | |
Level 1 – Based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market. |
Level 2 – Based on observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. |
Level 3 – Based on unobservable inputs that reflect the entity'sentity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
We did 0tnot have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities, nor were there any transfers between levels during the periods presented.

(1)The fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts is the difference between the contract and current market foreign currency exchange rates at the end of the period. We estimate the fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts on a quarterly basis by obtaining market quotes of spot and forward rates for contracts with similar terms, adjusted where necessary for maturity differences.
(2)The fair value of deferred compensation derivatives is based on quoted prices for market interest rates and a broad market equity index.
(3)The fair value of commodities futures and options contracts is based on quoted market prices.

Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximated fair values as of July 4, 20213, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for similar debt issues and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The fair values and carrying values of long-term debt, including the current portion, were as follows: | | | Fair Value | | Carrying Value | | Fair Value | | Carrying Value |
| | July 4, 2021 | | December 31, 2020 | | July 4, 2021 | | December 31, 2020 | | July 3, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 | | July 3, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 |

Other Fair Value Measurements
In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, GAAP requires that, under certain circumstances, we also record assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
In connection with the acquisitionacquisitions of Lily's in the second quarter ofPretzels, Dot’s and Lily’s during 2021, as discussed in Note 2, we used various valuation techniques to determine fair value, with the primary techniques being discounted cash flow analysis and the relief-from-royalty, and a form of the multi-period excess earnings, which use significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy. During the six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021, we recorded 0no impairment charges. During the six months ended June 28, 2020, we recorded the following impairment charges, which use significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy: | | | | | | | | |
| | 2020 |
Adjustment to disposal group (1) | | $ | 6,200 | |
Other asset write-down (2) | | 2,943 | |
Long-lived asset impairment charges | | $ | 9,143 | |
(1)In connection with the sale of the LSFC joint venture (disposal group previously classified as held for sale), we recorded impairment charges to adjust long-lived asset values. The fair value of the disposal group was supported by potential sales prices with third-party buyers. The sale of the LSFC joint venture was completed in January 2021.
(2)In connection with a previous sale, the Company wrote-down certain receivables deemed uncollectible.
7. LEASES
We lease office and retail space, warehouse and distribution facilities, land, vehicles, and equipment. We determine if an agreement is or contains a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.
Right-of-use ("ROU"(“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term and are recognized at the lease commencement date.
As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate is derived from information available at the lease commencement date.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
(amounts in thousands, except share data or if otherwise indicated)
Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. A limited number of our lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Our lease agreements generally do not contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
For real estate, equipment and vehicles that support selling, marketing and general administrative activities the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. These asset categories comprise the majority of our leases. The lease and non-lease components of real estate and equipment leases supporting production activities are not accounted for as a single lease component. Consideration for such contracts are allocated to the lease component and non-lease components based upon relative standalone prices either observable or estimated if observable prices are not readily available.

8. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES
We invest in partnerships whichthat make equity investments in projects eligible to receive federal historic and renewable energy tax credits. The tax credits, when realized, are recognized as a reduction of tax expense under the flow-through method, at which time the corresponding equity investment is written-down to reflect the remaining value of the future benefits to be realized. The equity investment write-down is reflected within other (income) expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income (see Note 1817).
Additionally, we acquire ownership interests in emerging snacking businesses and startup companies, which vary in method of accounting based on our percentage of ownership and ability to exercise significant influence over decisions relating to operating and financial affairs. These investments afford the Company the rights to distribute brands that the Company does not own to third-party customers primarily in North America. Net sales and expenses of our equity method investees are not consolidated into our financial statements; rather, our proportionate share of earnings or losses are recorded on a net basis within other (income) expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Both equity and cost method investments are reported within other non-current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We regularly review our investments and adjust accordingly for capital contributions, dividends received and other-than-temporary impairments. Total investments in unconsolidated affiliates was $81,606were $139,731 and $52,351$93,089 as of July 4, 20213, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

2020 International Optimization Program
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we commenced a program ("(“International Optimization Program"Program”) to streamline resources and investments in select international markets, including the optimization of our China operating model that will improve our operational efficiency and provide for a strong, sustainable and simplified base going forward.
The International Optimization Program is expected to be completed by mid-2022,in early 2023, with total pre-tax costs anticipated to be $50,000 to $75,000. Cash costs are expected to be $40,000 to $65,000, primarily related to workforce reductions of approximately 350 positions outside of the United States, costs to consolidate and relocate production, and third-party costs incurred to execute these activities. The costs and related benefits of the International Optimization

Program relate to the International and Other segment. However, segment operating results do not include these business realignment expenses because we evaluate segment performance excluding such costs.
For the three and six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021, we recognized total costs associated with the International Optimization Program of $3,469$1,980 and $10,396, respectively. These charges predominantly included third-party charges in support of our initiative to transform our China operating model, as well as severance and employee benefit costs. Since inception, we have incurred pre-tax charges to execute the program totaling $39,739.
Margin for Growth Program
In the first quarter of 2017, the Company's Board of Directors ("Board") unanimously approved several initiatives under a single program focused on improving global efficiency and effectiveness, optimizing the Company’s supply chain, streamlining the Company’s operating model and reducing administrative expenses to generate long-term savings. This project was completed in mid-2020.
For the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, we recognized total costs associated with the Margin for Growth Program of $1,275 and $2,170, respectively. These charges included employee severance, largely relating to initiatives to improve the cost structure of our corporate operating model as part of optimizing our global supply chain. In addition, we incurred other program costs, which related primarily to third-party charges in support of our initiative to improve global efficiency and effectiveness.

10. INCOME TAXES
The majority of our taxable income is generated in the United States and taxed at the United States statutory rate of 21%. The effective tax rates for the six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021 were 21.4% and June 28, 2020 were 25.1% and 19.8%, respectively. Relative to the statutory rate, the 20212022 effective tax rate was impacted by incrementalstate taxes, tax reserves incurred as a result of an adverse ruling in connection with a non-U.S. tax litigation matter as well as state taxes,and unfavorable foreign rate differential, partially offset by investment tax credits and the benefit of employee share-based payments.
The Company and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the United States, including various state and local returns, and in other foreign jurisdictions. We are routinely audited by taxing authorities in our filing jurisdictions, and a number of these disputes are currently underway, including multi-year controversies at various stages of review, negotiation and litigation in Malaysia, Mexico, China, Canada and the United States. The outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty, including the timing of resolution or potential settlements. If any issues addressed in our tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, we could be required to adjust our provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs. During the second quarter of 2021, we recorded incremental tax reserves as a result of an adverse ruling in connection with a non-U.S. tax litigation matter. Based on our current assessments, we believe adequate provision has been made for all income tax uncertainties. We reasonably expect reductions in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $22,387$14,970 within the next 12 months because of the expiration of statutes of limitations and settlements of tax audits.
American Rescue Plan Act
On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act ("ARPA"(“ARPA”) was signed into law. The ARPA strengthens and extends certain federal programs enacted through the CARESCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act and other COVID-19 relief measures, and establishes new federal programs, including provisions on taxes, healthcare and unemployment benefits. The ARPA did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the six months ended July 4, 2021.
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”)CARES Act was signed into law. The CARES Act provides a substantial stimulus and assistance package intended to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including tax relief and government loans, grants and investments. The CARES Act did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the six months ended July 4, 2021 and June 28, 2020.2021.

During the first and second quarterssix months of 2021,2022, we recognized pension settlement charges in our hourly retirement plan due to lump sum withdrawals by employees retiring or leaving the Company. In addition, we recognized pension settlement charges in ourand salaried retirement plan during the second quarter of 2021 due to lump sum withdrawals by employees retiring or leaving the Company. The non-cash settlement charges, which represent the acceleration of a portion of the respective plan’s accumulated unrecognized actuarial loss, were triggered when the cumulative lump sum distributions exceeded the plan'splan’s anticipated annual service and interest costs. In connection with the second quarter 20212022 settlements, the related plan assets and liabilities were remeasured using a discount rate as of the remeasurement date that was 34204 basis points higher than the rate as of December 31, 20202021 and an expected rate of return on plan assets of 4.8%5.8%.

12. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Share-based grants for compensation and incentive purposes are made pursuant to the Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (“EICP”). The EICP provides for grants of one or more of the following stock-based compensation awards to employees, non-employee directors and certain service providers upon whom the successful conduct of our business is dependent:
•Non-qualified stock options ("(“stock options"options”);
•Performance stock units ("PSUs"(“PSUs”) and performance stock;
•Stock appreciation rights;
•Restricted stock units ("RSUs"(“RSUs”) and restricted stock; and
•Other stock-based awards.
The EICP also provides for the deferral of stock-based compensation awards by participants if approved by the Compensation and Executive OrganizationHuman Capital Committee of our Board and if in accordance with an applicable deferred compensation plan of the Company. Currently, the Compensation and Executive OrganizationHuman Capital Committee has authorized the deferral of PSU and RSU awards by certain eligible employees under the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan. Our Board has authorized our non-employee directors to defer any portion of their cash retainer, committee chair fees and RSUs awarded that they elect to convert into deferred stock units under our Directors’ Compensation Plan.
At the time stock options are exercised or PSUs and RSUs become payable, Common Stock is issued from our accumulated treasury shares. Dividend equivalents are credited on RSUs on the same date and at the same rate as dividends paid on our Common Stock. Dividend equivalents are charged to retained earnings and included in accrued liabilities until paid.
Awards to employees eligible for retirement prior to the award becoming fully vested are amortized to expense over the period through the date that the employee first becomes eligible to retire and is no longer required to provide service to earn the award. In addition, historical data is used to estimate forfeiture rates and record share-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.
For the periods presented, compensation expense for all types of stock-based compensation programs and the related income tax benefit recognized were as follows: | | | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended | | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |
| | July 4, 2021 | | June 28, 2020 | | July 4, 2021 | | June 28, 2020 | | July 3, 2022 | | July 4, 2021 | | July 3, 2022 | | July 4, 2021 |

Compensation expenses for stock compensation plans are primarily included in selling, marketing and administrative expense. As of July 4, 2021,3, 2022, total stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was $101,018$102,149 and the weighted-average period over which this amount is expected to be recognized was approximately 2.22.0 years.

Stock Options
The exercise price of each stock option awarded under the EICP equals the closing price of our Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant. Each stock option has a maximum term of 10 years. Grants of stock options provide for pro-rated vesting, typically over a four-year period. Expense for stock options is based on grant date fair value and recognized on a straight-line method over the vesting period, net of estimated forfeitures.

Performance Stock Units and Restricted Stock Units
Under the EICP, we grant PSUs to selectedselect executives and other key employees. Vesting is contingent upon the achievement of certain performance objectives. We grant PSUs over 3-yearthree-year performance cycles. If we meet targets for financial measures at the end of the applicable 3-yearthree-year performance cycle, we award a resulting number of shares of our Common Stock to the participants. The number of shares may be increased to the maximum or reduced to the minimum threshold based on the results of these performance metrics in accordance with the terms established at the time of the award.
For PSUs granted, the target award is a combination of a market-based total shareholder return and performance-based components. For market-based condition components, market volatility and other factors are taken into consideration in determining the grant date fair value and the related compensation expense is recognized regardless of whether the market condition is satisfied, provided that the requisite service has been provided. For performance-based condition components, we estimate the probability that the performance conditions will be achieved each quarter and adjust compensation expenses accordingly. The performance scores of PSU grants during the six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021 and June 28, 2020 can range from 0% to 250% of the targeted amounts.

We recognize the compensation expenses associated with PSUs ratably over the 3-yearthree-year term. Compensation expenses isare based on the grant date fair value because the grants can only be settled in shares of our Common Stock. The grant date fair value of PSUs is determined based on the Monte Carlo simulation model for the market-based total shareholder return component and the closing market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant for performance-based components.
During the six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021, and June 28, 2020, we awarded RSUs to certain executive officers and other key employees under the EICP. We also awarded RSUs to non-employee directors.

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our organizational structure is designed to ensure continued focus on North America, coupled with an emphasis on profitable growth in our focus international markets. Our business is primarily organized around geographic regions, which enables us to build processes for repeatable success in our global markets. As a result, we have defined our operating segments on a geographic basis, as this aligns with how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages our business, including resource allocation and performance assessment. Our North America business, which generates approximately 90% of our consolidated revenue, is our only reportable segment. None of our other operating segments meet the quantitative thresholds to qualify as reportable segments; therefore, these operating segments are combined and disclosed below as International and Other.
•North America - This segment is responsible for our traditional chocolate and non-chocolate confectionery market position, as well as our grocery and growing snacks market positions, in the United States and Canada. This includes developing and growing our business in chocolate and non-chocolate confectionery, pantry, food service and other snacking product lines.
•International and Other -– International and Other is a combination of all other operating segments that are not individually material, including those geographic regions where we operate outside of North America. We currently have operations and manufacture product in Mexico, Brazil, India and Malaysia, primarily for consumers in these regions, and also distribute and sell confectionery products in export markets of Asia, Latin America, Middle East, Europe, Africa and other regions. This segment also includes our global retail operations, including Hershey's Chocolate World stores in Hershey, Pennsylvania, New York City, Las Vegas, Niagara Falls (Ontario) and Singapore, as well as operations associated with licensing the use of certain of the Company's trademarks and products to third parties around the world.
For segment reporting purposes, we use “segment income” to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Segment income excludes unallocated general corporate administrative expenses, unallocated mark-to-market gains and losses on commodity derivatives, business realignment and impairment charges, acquisition-related costs and other unusual gains or losses that are not part of our measurement of segment performance. These items of our operating income are managed centrally at the corporate level and are excluded from the measure of segment income reviewed by the CODM as well as the measure of segment performance used for incentive compensation purposes.
As discussed in Note 5, derivatives used to manage commodity price risk are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. These derivatives are recognized at fair market value with the resulting realized and unrealized (gains) losses recognized in unallocated derivative (gains) losses outside of the reporting segment results until the related inventory is sold, at which time the related gains and losses are reallocated to segment income. This enables us to align the derivative gains and losses with the underlying economic exposure being hedged and thereby eliminate the mark-to-market volatility within our reported segment income. Certain manufacturing, warehousing, distribution and other activities supporting our global operations are integrated to maximize efficiency and productivity. As a result, assets and capital expenditures are not managed on a segment basis and are not included in the information reported to the CODM for the purpose of evaluating performance or allocating resources. We disclose depreciation and amortization that is generated by segment-specific assets, since these amounts are included within the measure of segment income reported to the CODM.

17.16. EARNINGS PER SHARE
We compute basic earnings per share for Common Stock and Class B common stock using the two-class method. The Class B common stock is convertible into Common Stock on a share-for-share basis at any time. In June 2022, 1,500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock were converted to Common Stock by Hershey Trust Company, as trustee for the School Trust. The computation of diluted earnings per share for Common Stock assumes the conversion of Class B common stock using the if-converted method, while the diluted earnings per share of Class B common stock does not assume the conversion of those shares.

TRENDS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS
On March 11, 2020, the second quarterWorld Health Organization designated coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic, which has spread worldwide and impacted various markets around the world, including the U.S. Throughout the pandemic we have remained committed to promoting the health and safety of 2020, we completedour employees and communities and helping to maintain the divestituresglobal food supply. Through the first half of KRAVE Pure Foods, Inc. ("Krave")2022, relatively minimal COVID-19 restrictions remained as vaccination status (including vaccine boosters) continued to increase around the world, albeit with slower than anticipated rollouts and challenges within certain countries. The lifting of restrictions has resulted in daily activities and habits being more representative of pre-pandemic times. However, beginning in 2021, and continuing through the six months ended July 3, 2022, the continued strong demand for consumer goods and the effects of COVID-19 mitigation strategies have led to broad-based supply chain disruptions across the U.S. and globally, including inflation on many consumer products, labor shortages and demand outpacing supply. As a result, during the six months ended July 3, 2022, we continued to experience corresponding incremental costs and gross margin pressures (see Scharffen BergerResults of Operations included in this MD&A). We are continuing to work closely with our business units, contract manufacturers, distributors, contractors and Dagoba brands, all of which were previously included withinother external business partners to minimize the North America segment results in our consolidated financial statements. Total proceeds from the divestitures and thepotential impact on our business.
In addition to COVID-19 and broad-based supply chain disruptions, certain geopolitical events, specifically the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, have increased global economic and political uncertainty. For the six months ended July 3, 2022, this conflict did not have a material impact on our commodity prices or supply availability. However, we are continuing to monitor for any significant escalation or expansion of economic or supply chain disruptions or broader inflationary costs, which may result in material adverse effects on our results of operations.
We experienced an increase in our net sales and net income during the three months ended July 3, 2022, which was primarily driven by strong everyday performance on our core U.S. confection brands and salty snack brands (see Segment Results included in this MD&A), partially offset by the aforementioned supply chain disruptions and gross margin pressures. As of July 3, 2022, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our key strategic initiatives and other material cash requirements; however, we continue to evaluate and take action, as necessary, to preserve adequate liquidity and ensure that our business can operate effectively during the current economic environment. We continue to monitor our discretionary spending across the organization (see Liquidity and Capital Resources included in this MD&A).
Based on the length and severity of COVID-19 and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including broad-based supply chain disruptions, rising levels of inflation, new trends in outbreaks and hotspots, the spread of COVID-19 variants, resurgences of COVID-19 cases and the continued distribution of vaccinations, we may experience continued volatility in retail foot traffic, consumer shopping and consumption behavior and may experience increasing supply chain costs and higher inflation. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of these potential and evolving impacts on our business, consolidated financial statements, both individuallyresults of operations, segment results, liquidity and on an aggregate basis, were immaterial.capital resources.

TRENDS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") as a global pandemic, which has spread worldwide and impacted various markets around the world, including the U.S. Various policies and initiatives have been implemented to reduce the global transmission of COVID-19.
Local, state and national governments continue to emphasize the importance of food supply during this pandemic and asked that food manufacturers and retailers remain open to meet the needs of our communities. Employee safety is our first priority, and as a result, we put preparedness plans in place at our manufacturing facilities. Our manufacturing facilities are currently open; however, we have adjusted shift schedules, enforced social distancing, increased sanitation and adjusted time and attendance policies for worker absenteeism. Our sales teams continue to support community food supplies, while adhering to social distancing guidelines, implementing flexible hours, reducing person-to-person interaction and increasing safety measures. At the onset of the pandemic, the Company temporarily closed all Hershey's Chocolate World stores in the U.S. (3 locations), Niagara Falls (Ontario) and Singapore; however, since July 2020, all locations were re-opened on a limited capacity basis with increased safety measures and enforced social distancing.
In June 2020 we commenced a phased in approach to reopen our corporate headquarters in Hershey, Pennsylvania and other select offices with increased safety protocols. We have successfully onboarded several teams; however, occupancy levels remain low as we continue to monitor the latest COVID-19 related public health and government guidance. As a result, a majority of our office-based employees continue to work remotely where possible. We have crisis management teams in place to monitor the continually evolving situation and recommending risk mitigation actions as deemed necessary. To date, there has been minimal disruption to our supply chain network, including the supply of our ingredients, packaging or other sourced materials, though it is possible that more significant disruptions could occur if the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact markets around the world. We are also working closely with our business units, contract manufacturers, distributors, contractors and other external business partners to minimize the potential impact on our business.
As of July 4, 2021, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our cash needs; however, we continue to evaluate and take action, as necessary, to preserve adequate liquidity and ensure that our business can continue to operate during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to monitor our discretionary spending across the organization (see Liquidity and Capital Resources included in this MD&A).
During the second quarter of 2021, many state governments began easing COVID-19 restrictions, resulting in increased travel ahead of the summer season, approval for full capacity at major sporting and entertainment events, increased occupancy limits for indoor gathering and the removal of face covering requirements (subject to certain exceptions). Additionally, increasing availability and the rollout of vaccinations continue around the world, albeit with slower than anticipated rollouts and challenges within certain countries. We experienced an increase in our net sales and income during the three and six months ended July 4, 2021, which was primarily driven by strong everyday performance on our core U.S. confection brands and solid marketplace growth in select international markets (see Segment Results included in this MD&A).
Based on the length and severity of COVID-19, including new trends in outbreaks and hotspots, the spread of COVID-19 variants, potential resurgences and the continued distribution of vaccinations, we may experience continued volatility in retail foot traffic, consumer shopping and consumption behavior. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of these potential impacts to our business, consolidated results of operations, segment results, liquidity and capital resources.

SEGMENT RESULTS
The summary that follows provides a discussion of the results of operations of our twothree reportable segments: North America Confectionery, North America Salty Snacks and International and Other. The segments reflect our operations on a geographic basis.International. For segment reporting purposes, we use “segment income” to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Segment income excludes unallocated general corporate administrative expenses, unallocated mark-to-market gains and losses on commodity derivatives, business realignment and impairment charges, acquisition-related costs and other unusual gains or losses that are not part of our measurement of segment performance. These items of our operating income are largely managed centrally at the corporate level and are excluded from the measure of segment income reviewed by the CODM and used for resource allocation and internal management reporting and performance evaluation. Segment income and segment income margin, which are presented in the segment discussion that follows, are non-GAAP measures and do not purport to be alternatives to operating income as a measure of operating performance. We believe that these measures are useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating ongoing operating profitability as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors, as they exclude the activities that are not directly attributable to our ongoing segment operations.
Our segment results, including a reconciliation to our consolidated results, were as follows: | | | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended | | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Historically, our primary source of liquidity has been cash generated from operations. Domestic seasonal working capital needs, which typically peak during the summer months, are generally met by utilizing cash on hand, bank borrowings or the issuance of commercial paper. Commercial paper may also be issued, from time to time, to finance ongoing business transactions, such as the repayment of long-term debt, business acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes.

Additional detail regarding the net uses of cash are outlined in the following discussion.

For the remainder of the Company’s cash held by international subsidiaries, weWe intend to continue to reinvest the undistributedremainder of the earnings indefinitely.outside of the United States for which there would be a material tax implication to distributing, such as withholding tax, for the foreseeable future and, therefore, have not recognized additional tax expense on these earnings. We believe we have sufficientthat our existing sources of liquidity are adequate to meet anticipated funding needs at comparable risk-based interest rates for the foreseeable future.

Operating activities
We generated cash of $1.0 billion$1,113.8 million from operating activities in the first six months of 2021,2022, an increase of $403.7$96.1 million compared to $614.0$1,017.7 million in the same period of 2020.2021. This increase in net cash provided by operating activities was mainly driven by the following factors:
•Net income adjusted for non-cash charges to operations (including depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes, long-lived asset charges, a write-down of equity investments and other charges) resulted in $186.3$218.1 million of higher cash flow in 20212022 relative to 2020.2021.
•The increase in cash provided by operating activities was partially offset by the following net cash outflows:
•Net working capital (comprised of trade accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued liabilities) consumed cash of $77.5 million in 2022, compared to $13.3 million in 2021, compared to $201.9 million in 2020.2021. This $188.6$64.2 million fluctuation was mainly driven by a higher cash receipts from customers resulting in a slightly lower investment in accounts receivable at the end of the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020, as well as strong demandyear-over-year build up of U.S. inventories specifically our everyday core U.S. confection brands.
•Accrued income taxes generated consistentto satisfy product requirements and maintain sufficient levels of cash in 2021to accommodate customer requirements and 2020; however, we paid cash of $139.1 million for income taxes during 2021 compared to $71.6 million in the same period of 2020. This $67.5 millionan increase in cash payments was primarilyused by accounts receivable due to the 2020 deferraltiming of quarterly estimated taxcustomer payments, as a resultpartially offset by the timing of the CARES Act.vendor and supplier payments.
Investing activities
We used cash of $700.1$351.0 million for investing activities in the first six months of 2021, an increase2022, a decrease of $490.3$349.1 million compared to $209.8$700.1 million in the same period of 2020.2021. This increasedecrease in net cash used in investing activities was mainly driven by the following factors:
•Capital spending. Capital expenditures, including capitalized software, primarily to support our ERP system implementation, capacity expansion projects, innovation and cost savings, were $227.6$241.0 million in the first six months of 20212022 compared to $185.8$227.6 million in the same period of 2020. For2021. We expect our full year 2021, we expect2022 capital expenditures, including capitalized software, to approximate $550$600 million. Our 20212022 capital expenditures are largely driven by our key strategic initiatives, including expanding the continuationagility and capacity of our ERP system implementation, as well as ourthe Company’s supply chain capacity projects.and building digital infrastructure across the enterprise. We intend to use our existing cash and internally generated funds to meet our 2022 capital requirements.
•Investments in partnerships qualifying for tax credits. We make investments in partnership entities that in turn make equity investments in projects eligible to receive federal historic and renewable energy tax credits. We invested approximately $57.4$116.2 million in the first six months of 2021,2022, compared to $26.4$57.4 million in the same period of 2020.2021.
•Business Acquisition. In June 2021, we acquired Lily's for an initial cash purchase price of $418.2 million. Further details regarding our business acquisition activity is provided in Note 2 to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Financing activities
We used cash of $1.0 billion$755.4 million for financing activities in the first six months of 2021,2022, a decrease of $286.3 million compared to cash generated of $295.9$1,041.7 million in the same period of 2020.2021. This fluctuation of $1.3 billion fordecrease in net cash used in financing activities was mainly driven by the following factors:
•Short-term borrowings, net. In addition to utilizing cash on hand, we use short-term borrowings (commercial paper and bank borrowings) to fund seasonal working capital requirements and ongoing business needs. During the first six months of 2022, we used cash of $24.5 million to reduce a portion of our short-term commercial paper borrowings originally used to fund our 2021 acquisitions of Dot’s and Pretzels, partially offset by an increase in short-term foreign bank borrowings. During the first six months of 2021, we generated cash flow of $137.0 million predominantly through the issuance of short-term commercial paper, partially offset by a reduction in short-term foreign borrowings.
•Long-term debt borrowings and repayments. During the first six months of 2020,2022, long-term debt activity was minimal. During the first six months of 2021, we generated cash flowrepaid $84.7 million of $166.08.800% Debentures due upon their maturity and $350.0 million predominantly through the issuance of short-term commercial paper, as well as an increase in short-term foreign bank borrowings.

•We might not be able to hire, engage and retain the talented global workforce we need to drive our growth strategies;
•Risks associated with climate change and other environmental impacts, and increased focus and evolving views of our customers, stockholders and other stakeholders on climate change issues, could negatively affect our business and operations;
•Increases in raw material and energy costs along with the availability of adequate supplies of raw materials could affect future financial results;
•Price increases may not be sufficient to offset cost increases and maintain profitability or may result in sales volume declines associated with pricing elasticity;
•Market demand for new and existing products could decline;
•Increased marketplace competition could hurt our business;
•Our financial results may be adversely impacted by the failure to successfully execute or integrate acquisitions, divestitures and joint ventures;

•Such other matters as discussed in our 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 4, 2021,3, 2022 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Part II, Item 1A, "Risk”Risk Factors."”
We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in expectations or events or circumstances after the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
In December 2020, our fixed-to-floating interest rate swap matured in connection with the repayment of certain long-term debt upon its maturity. Therefore, as of July 4, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no interest rate swap derivative instruments in a fair value hedging relationship. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates applied to this variable-rate debt through its December 2020 maturity would have increased interest expense by approximately $3.2 million for the year 2020. There is no hypothetical impact for 2021.
In addition, theThe total amount of short-term debt, net of cash, amounted to net cash positionsdebt of 218.6$575.2 million and $1.1 billion, respectively,net debt of $610.2 million, at July 4, 20213, 2022 and December 31, 2020.2021, respectively. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates applied to this variable-rate short-term debt as of July 4, 20213, 2022 would have changed interest expense by approximately $3.2$2.8 million forfor the first six months of 20212022 and $8.6$2.4 million for the full year 2020.2021.
We consider our current risk related to market fluctuations in interest rates on our remaining debt portfolio, excluding fixed-rate debt converted to variable rates with fixed-to-floating instruments, to be minimal since this debt is largely long-term and fixed-rate in nature. Generally, the fair market value of fixed-rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would decrease the fair value of our fixed-rate long-term debt at July 4, 20213, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 by approximately $322$258 million and $357$319 million, respectively. However, since we currently have no plans to repurchase our outstanding fixed-rate instruments before their maturities, the impact of market interest rate fluctuations on our long-term debt does not affect our results of operations or financial position.
The potential decline in fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts resulting from a hypothetical near-term adverse change in market rates of 10% was $22.9$44.8 million as of July 4, 20213, 2022 and $25.6$24.8 million as of December 31, 2020,2021, generally offset by a reduction in foreign exchange associated with our transactional activities.
Our open commodity derivative contracts had a notional value of $387.9$479.4 million asas of July 4, 20213, 2022 and $279.8$313.2 million as of December 31, 2020.2021. At the end of the first quarter 2021,2022, the potential change in fair value of commodity derivative instruments, assuming a 10% decrease in the underlying commodity price, would have increased our net unrealized losses by $41.6$50.8 million, generally offset by a reduction in the cost of the underlying commodity purchases.
Other than as described above, market risks have not changed significantly from those described in our 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of July 4, 20213, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 4, 20213, 2022.
We rely extensively on information systems and technology to manage our business and summarize operating results. We are in the process of a multi-year implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, which will replace our existing operating and financial systems. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain the Company’s financial records, enhance operational functionality and provide timely information to the Company’s management team related to the operation of the business. The implementation is expected to occur in phases over the next several years. TheWhen the next phases of the updated processes are rolled out in connection with the ERP implementation, we will give appropriate consideration to whether these process changes necessitate changes in the design of and testing for effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended July 4, 20213, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
