Announcement of Planned Separation On September 15, 2022, NCR announced a plan to separate into two independent, publicly traded companies – one focused on digital commerce, the other on ATMs. The separation is intended to be structured in a tax-free manner. The separation transaction will follow the satisfaction of customary conditions, including effectiveness of appropriate filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the completion of audited financial statements. The current target is to complete the separation by the end of 2023.

Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenue and expenses during the period reported.

Although our estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from our expectations, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial position. In particular, a number of estimates have been and will continue to be affected by the ongoing novelvariants of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.pandemic, macroeconomic pressures and geopolitical challenges. The ultimate impact on our overall financial condition and operating results will depend on the currently unknowable duration and severity of the pandemic, supply chain challenges and cost escalations including materials, interest, labor and freight, and any additional governmental and public actions taken in response. As a result, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time as a consequence of the effects of COVID-19.

COVID-19 and other external factors. Such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, long-lived assets, incremental credit losses on accounts receivable and decreases in the carrying amount of our tax assets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

IssuedAdoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an accounting standards updateEntity’s Own Equity, with new guidance for convertible preferred stock, which eliminates considerations related to the beneficial conversion feature model. The standard also requires entities to use an average stock price when calculating the denominator for diluted earnings per share to be used for stock units where the settlement of the number of shares is based on the stock price. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption iswas permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this accounting standards update isdid not expected to have a material effect on the Company's net income, cash flows, earnings per share or financial condition.

In May 2021, the FASB issued an accounting standards updateASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options, with new guidance for freestanding equity-classified written call options. The new guidance requires issuers to account for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after the modification or exchange based on the economic substance of the modification or exchange. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this accounting standards update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's net income, cash flows, earnings per share or financial condition.

Adopted

In July 2021, the FASB issued an accounting standards update with new guidance for lessors with lease contracts that have variable lease payments. Under the new guidance, a lease which includes variable lease payments which do not depend on a reference index or rate and would have resulted in the recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement if classified as sales-type or direct financing are now to be classified as operating. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The accounting standards update was adopted using the transition guidance of early application and we will apply the standard prospectively to all new hardware arrangements where NCR is the lessor. The accounting standard did not have a material effect on the Company's net income, cash flows, earnings per share or financial condition.

In March 2022, the SEC staff released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (“SAB 121”), which expressed the views of the SEC staff regarding the accounting for obligations to safeguard crypto-assets an entity holds for users of its crypto platform. This guidance requires entities that hold crypto-assets on behalf of platform users to recognize a liability to reflect the entity’s obligation to safeguard the crypto-assets held for its platform users. The liability should be measured at initial recognition and each reporting date at the fair value of the crypto-assets that the entity is responsible for holding for its platform users. The entity should also recognize an asset at the same time that it recognizes the safeguarding liability, measured at initial recognition and each reporting date at the fair value of the crypto-assets held for its platform users. SAB 121 also includes guidance on disclosures related to the Company’s safeguarding of crypto-assets. This guidance is effective from the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2022 and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the fiscal year to which the interim or annual period relates. The Company adopted this guidance in the interim period ending June 30, 2022; however, as the Company is not currently offering digital asset safeguarding services to its customers, the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s net income, cash flows, earnings per share or financial condition.

Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and adopted by or effective for the Company, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recording of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed The fair value of consideration transferred was allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of the respective acquisitions as set forth below. The allocation of the purchase prices are provisional as of September 30, 2021 and may be subject to future adjustments as the Company obtains additional information to finalize the accounting for the business combinations. The allocation of the purchase prices is as follows:

In millionsFair Value
Cash acquired$2
Tangible assets acquired7
Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill52
Acquired goodwill86
Deferred tax liabilities(8)
Liabilities assumed(13)
Total purchase consideration$126

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually separately recognized. The goodwill arising from the acquisitions consists of revenue and cost synergies expected from combining the operations of NCR and the respective acquisitions. It is expected that $9 million of the goodwill recognized in connection with the acquisitions will be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill arising from the Freshop acquisition has been allocated to our Retail segment. The goodwill arising from the Terafina acquisition has been allocated to our Banking segment. The goodwill arising from the Dumac acquisition has been allocated to our Hospitality segment. Refer to Note 3, Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets, for the carrying amounts of goodwill by segment.

The following table sets forth the components of the intangible assets acquired as of the acquisition dates:
Fair Value
Weighted Average Amortization Period (1)
(In millions) (In years)
Direct customer relationships$11 10
Technology - Software36 8
Non-compete1
Tradenames9
Total acquired intangible assets$52 
(1)Determination of the weighted average period of the individual categories of intangible assets was based on the nature of applicable intangible asset and the expected future cash flows to be derived from the intangible asset. Amortization of intangible assets with definite lives is recognized over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute to future cash flows.

The operating results of Freshop, Terafina, and Dumac have been included within NCR's results as of the closing dates of the acquisitions. Supplemental pro forma information and actual revenue and earnings since the acquisition dates have not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

3. GOODWILL AND LONG-LIVEDPURCHASED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill by Segment As described in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, effective January 1, 2022, the Company realigned its reportable segments to correspond with changes to its operating model, management structure and organizational responsibilities. In connection with the change in reportable segments, during the first quarter of 2022, the Company determined its reporting units and then assigned goodwill to the new reporting units based on the relative fair value allocation approach. We have reclassified prior period goodwill disclosures to conform to the current period presentation.

The carrying amounts of goodwill by segment as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 20202021 are included in the table below. Foreign currency fluctuations are included within other adjustments.

Due to the change in reportable segments, management performed an interim goodwill impairment analysis immediately before and as of the effective date of January 1, 2022. The assessment as of December 31, 2021 was performed based on a qualitative assessment of the historical Banking, Retail, Hospitality and Telecommunications & Technology reporting units. No impairment was identified. The assessment as of January 1, 2022 was performed using a weighted combination of both guideline public company and discounted cash flow valuation methods. This assessment included, but was not limited to, our consideration of the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic to the current and future cash flows, as well as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, and financial performance, including forecasted revenue, earnings and capital expenditures of each reporting unit. Based on this analysis, it was determined that the fair value of all reporting units were substantially in excess of the carrying value. However, if the actual results differ from our expectations for any of our reporting units, there is a possibility we would have to perform additional interim impairment tests, which could lead to an impairment of goodwill or other assets.

Identifiable Intangible Assets NCR's purchased intangible assets, reported in intangibles,Intangibles, net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, were specifically identified when acquired, and are deemed to have finite lives.

Self-Service Banking - We offer solutions to enable customers in the telecommunicationsfinancial services industry to reduce costs, generate new revenue streams and technology industry. We also provide suchenhance customer loyalty. These solutions include a comprehensive line of ATM hardware and software, and related installation, maintenance, and managed and professional services.

Corporate and Other includes income and expenses related to corporate functions that are not specifically attributable to an individual reportable segment along with any immaterial operating segment(s).

Eliminations include revenues from contracts with customers and the related costs that are reported in the Payments & Network segment as well as in the Retail or Hospitality segments, including merchant acquiring services to end users on behalf of select manufacturers leveraging our global service capability, and resell third party networking products to customers in a variety of industries.that are monetized via payments.

These segments represent components of the Company for which separate financial information is available that is utilized on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker in assessing segment performance and in allocating the Company's resources. Management evaluates the performance of the segments based on revenue and adjustedAdjusted EBITDA. The Company previously evaluated the performance of the segments based on segment operating income. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to NCR plus interest expense, net; plus income tax expense (benefit); plus depreciation and amortization; plus stock-based compensation expense; plus other income (expense); plus pension mark-to-market adjustments, pension settlements, pension curtailments and pension special termination benefits and other special items, including amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, restructuring charges, among others. The special items are considered non-operational so are excluded from the adjustedAdjusted EBITDA metric utilized by our chief operating decision maker in evaluating segment performance and are separately delineated to reconcile back to total reported GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to NCR.

Special Item Related to Russia The war in Eastern Europe and related sanctions imposed on Russia and related actors by the United States and other jurisdictions required us to commence the orderly wind down of our operations in Russia beginning in the first quarter of 2022. As of September 30, 2022, we have ceased operations in Russia and are in the process of dissolving our only subsidiary in Russia. As a result, for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2022, our presentation of segment revenue and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the immaterial impact of our operating results in Russia, as well as the impact of impairments taken to write down the carrying value of assets and liabilities, severance charges, and the assessment of collectability on revenue recognition. We consider this to be a non-recurring special item and management has reviewed the results of its business segments excluding these impacts. We have not adjusted the presentation of the prior year period due to the immaterial impact of Russia to revenue and income from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Assets are not allocated to segments, and thus are not included in the assessment of segment performance. Consequently, we do not disclose total assets by reportable segment. The accounting policies used to determine the results of the operating segments are the same as those utilized for the condensed consolidated financial statements as a whole. Intersegment sales and transfers are not material.

Trade Receivables Facility In November 2014, the Company established a revolving trade receivables facility (the “T/R Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC"). On September 30, 2021, the principal agreements for the T/R Facility were amended and restated to allow the Company's wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary NCR Receivables LLC (the "U.S. SPE") to sell to PNC and the other financial institutions participating in the T/R Facility an undivided ownership interest in a portion of the trade receivables owned by the U.S. SPE. In connection with this amendment and restatement, the U.S. SPE repaid in full its outstanding indebtedness under the T/R Facility and agreed to terminate and replace the lending commitments

of PNC and the other financial institutions thereunder with commitments to purchase the U.S. SPE's trade receivables.Refer to Note 6, Trade Receivables Facility in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

Fair Value of Debt The Company utilized Level 2 inputs, as defined in the fair value hierarchy, to measure the fair value of the long-term debt, which, as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 20202021 was $5.75$5.06 billion and $3.49$5.74 billion, respectively. Management's fair value estimates were based on quoted prices for recent trades of NCR’s long-term debt, quoted prices for similar instruments, and inquiries with certain investment communities.


6. TRADE RECEIVABLES FACILITY

On September 30, 2021 theThe Company and the U.S. bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity ("SPE") amended and restated the principal agreements for the T/R Facility.The amended and restated agreements add thecontinues to maintain its trade receivables originated by certain U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries offacility (the “T/R Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), which allows the Company to the T/R Facility.Furthermore, the amended and restated agreements enable the U.S. SPE to from time to timeCompany's wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary, NCR Receivables LLC (the “U.S. SPE”), to sell short-termcertain trade receivables from certain customer trade accountson a revolving basis to PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers on a revolving basis.participating in the T/R Facility. The T/R Facility, as amended, became effective September 30, 2021 and has a term of two years, which the Company and the U.S. SPE intend to renew.

Under the T/R Facility, the Company and the other U.S.certain United States and Canadian operating subsidiaries of the Company continuously sell their trade receivables as they are originated to the U.S. SPE and another newly formeda Canadian bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity (collectively, the “SPEs”), as applicable. None of the assets or credit of either SPE is available to satisfy the debts and obligations owed to the creditors of the Company or any other person until the obligations of the SPEs under the T/R Facility have been satisfied. The Company controls and therefore consolidates the SPEs in its condensed consolidated financial statements.

As cash is collected on the trade receivables, the U.S. SPE has the ability to continuously transfer ownership and control of new qualifying receivables to PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers such that the total outstanding balance of trade receivables sold can be up to $300 million at any point in time, which is the maximum purchase commitment of PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers. The future outstanding balance of trade receivables that are sold is expected to vary based on the level of activity and other factors and could be less than the maximum purchase commitment of $300 million. The total outstanding balance of trade receivables that have been sold and derecognized by the U.S. SPE to PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers is approximately $274$300 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.The SPEs collectively owned $293 million (excluding Excluding the $274 million of trade receivables sold to PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers, on September 30, 2021)the SPEs collectively owned $370 million and $428$228 million of trade receivable as of

Upon the amendment and restatement of the T/R Facility, the Company received an initial benefit from cash from operations of approximately $274 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

In addition, each of the SPEs has provided a full recourse guarantee in favor of PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers of the full and timely payment of all trade receivables sold to them by the U.S. SPE. The guarantee is collateralized by all the trade receivables owned by each of the SPEs that have not been sold to PNC or the other unaffiliated purchasers.The reserve recognized for this recourse obligation as of September 30, 20212022 is not material.

The Company, or in the case of any Canadian trade receivables, NCR Canada Corp., continues to be involved with the trade receivables even after they are transferred to the SPEs (or further transferred to PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers) by acting as servicer.In addition to any obligations as servicer, the Company and each of its subsidiaries acting as an originator under the T/R Facility provide the SPEs with customary recourse in respect of (i) certain dilutive events with respect to the trade receivables sold to the SPEs that are caused by the Company or another originator and (ii) in the event of certain violations by the Company or another originator of their representations and warranties with respect to the trade receivables sold to the SPEs.These servicing and originator liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries (other than the SPEs) under the T/R Facility are not expected to be material, given the high quality of the customers underlying the receivables and the anticipated short collection period.

The T/R Facility includes other customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and default and termination provisions, which provide for the acceleration of amounts owed to PNC and the other unaffiliated purchasers thereunder in circumstances including, but not limited to, failure to pay capital or yield on when due, breach of representation, warranty or covenant, certain insolvency events or failure to maintain the security interest in the trade receivables, and defaults under other material indebtedness.


7. INCOME TAXES

Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are based on an estimated annual effective income tax rate calculated separately from the effect of significant, infrequent or unusual items. Income tax expense was $43 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to income tax expense of $29 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to income tax expense of zero for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The change was primarily driven by a valuation allowance related to interest expense deduction carryforwards generated during the three months ended September 30, 2021. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did not recognize any material discrete tax benefits, whereas during the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits resulting from a decrease in the balance of the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits as a result of lapsing of statutes of limitations.

Income tax expense was $77 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to an income tax benefit of $33 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The change was primarily driven by higher income before taxes a valuation allowance relatedin the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to interestthe prior year. The Company did not recognize any material discrete tax expenses or benefits in either period.

Income tax expense deduction carryforwards generated duringwas $56 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and changes in2022 compared to income tax expense of $77 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The change was primarily driven by discrete tax expenses and benefits. DuringIn the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized a $7 million benefit from provision to return adjustments and a $7 million benefit related to uncertain tax position settlements and statute of limitation lapses. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized a $34 million expense from recording a valuation allowance against interest expense deductionlimitation carryforwards in the U.S. and a $14 million benefit from the deferred tax impact of a tax law change in the U.K. In the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits resulting from a decrease in the balance of the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits as a result of lapsing of statutes of limitations and a $48 million tax benefit for the release of a valuation allowance against U.S. foreign tax credits and the re-establishment of expected foreign tax credit offsets to unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company engages in continuous discussions and negotiations with taxing authorities regarding tax matters, and the Company has determined that over the next 12 months it expects to resolve certain tax matters related to U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. As a result, as of September 30, 2021,2022, we estimate that it is reasonably possible that gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $5$8 million to $24$10 million in the next 12 months.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, NCR is subject to various proceedings, lawsuits, claims and other matters, including, for example, those that relate to the environment and health and safety, labor and employment, employee benefits, import/export

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
compliance, patents or other intellectual property, data privacy and security, product liability, commercial disputes and regulatory compliance, among others. Additionally, NCR is subject to diverse and complex laws and regulations, including those relating to corporate governance, public disclosure and reporting, environmental safety and the discharge of materials into the environment, product safety, import and export compliance, data privacy and security, antitrust and competition, government contracting, anti-corruption, and labor and human resources, which are rapidly changing and subject to many possible changes in the future. Compliance with these laws and regulations, including changes in accounting standards, taxation requirements, and federal securities laws among others, may create a substantial burden on, and substantially increase costs to NCR or could have an impact on NCR's future operating results. The Company has reflected all liabilities when a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We do not believe there is a reasonable possibility that losses exceeding amounts already recognized have been incurred, but there can be no assurances that the amounts required to satisfy alleged liabilities from such matters will not impact future operating results. Other than as stated below, the Company does not currently expect to incur material capital expenditures related to such matters. However, there can be no assurances that the actual amounts required to satisfy alleged liabilities from various lawsuits, claims, legal proceedings and other matters, including, but not limited to the Fox River and Kalamazoo River environmental mattersmatter and other matters discussed below, and to comply with applicable laws and regulations, will not exceed the amounts reflected in NCR’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, capital expenditures, competitive position, financial condition or cash flows.

Legal Matters During August 2019, a suit was filed against the Company by Pennsylvania-based CloudofChange LLC alleging willful infringement by NCR for its use of its NCR Silver point-of-sale offering. On October 27, 2022, the court in the Western District of Texas denied the Company's post-trial motion in this matter for judgment as a matter of law or alternatively for a new trial, resulting in a ruling against the Company in an amount of $13 million. The Company remains committed to its position that NCR Silver does not infringe the CloudofChange LLC patents and will vigorously defend its position on appeal. The Company has already engaged experienced appellate counsel and immediately filed its notice of appeal. The Company evaluated the matter in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, and concluded that, as of September 30, 2022 and the date of filing of the related Form 10-Q, that a loss of up to $13 million is reasonably possible, but not probable and, therefore, no accrual has been recorded.

Environmental Matters NCR's facilities and operations are subject to a wide range of environmental protection laws, and NCR has investigatory and remedial activities underway at a number of facilities that it currently owns or operates, or formerly owned or operated, to comply, or to determine compliance, with such laws. Also, NCR has been identified, either by a government agency or by a private party seeking contribution to site clean-up costs, as a potentially responsible party (PRP)(“PRP”) at a number of sites pursuant to various state and federal laws, including the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA)(“CERCLA”) and comparable state statutes. Other than the Fox River matter, the Kalamazoo River matter and the Ebina matter discussed below, we currently do not anticipate material expenses and liabilities from these environmental matters.

Fox River On September 30, 2003, NCR iswas one of 8eight entities that were formally notified by governmental and other entities, such as local Native American tribes, that they arewere PRPs for environmental claims (under CERCLA and other statutes) arising out of the presence of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)(“PCBs”) in sediments in the lower Fox River and in the Bay of Green Bay in Wisconsin. The other Fox River PRPs that received notices include Appleton Papers Inc. (API;(“API”; now known as Appvion, Inc.), P.H. Glatfelter Company (“Glatfelter”), Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products LP (GP,(“GP”, successor to Fort James Operating Company), and others. NCR was identified as a PRP because of alleged PCB discharges from two carbonless copy paper manufacturing facilities it previously owned, which were located along the Fox River. NCR sold its facilities in 1978 to API. The parties have also contended that NCR iswas responsible for PCB discharges from paper mills owned by other
24

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
companies because NCR carbonless copy paper “broke” was allegedly purchased by those other mills as a raw material. In 2017, the Company entered into a Consent Decree with the federal and state governments for the clean-up of the Fox River, which was approved on August 22, 2017 by the federal district court in Wisconsin presiding over this matter. The Consent Decree resolved the Company’s disputes with the enforcement agencies as well as the other PRPs.

All litigation relating to the contribution and enforcement of remediation obligations on the Fox River has been concluded. No other litigation is pending. All Company obligations under the Consent Decree have been completed. On October 3, 2022, the Environmental Protection Agency issued the Company a Certificate of Completion certifying that all of the Company’s remedial obligations under the Consent Decree have been completed.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (together, the Governments) developed clean-up plans for the upper and lower partscost of the Fox River and for portions ofremediation is currently shared by the Bay of Green Bay. On November 13, 2007, the Governments issued a unilateral administrative order (the 2007 Order) under CERCLA to the 8 original PRPs, requiring them to perform remedial work under the Governments’ clean-up plan for the lower parts of the river (operable units 2 through 5). In April 2009, NCR and API formed a limited liability company (the LLC), which entered into an agreement with an environmental remediation contractor to perform the work at the Fox River site. In-water dredging and remediation under the clean-up plan commenced shortly thereafter.

three indemnitors. NCR and API, along with B.A.T Industries p.l.c. (BAT)(“BAT”), share among themselves a portion of the cost of the Fox River clean-up and natural resource damages (NRD)(“NRD”) based upon a 1998 agreement (the Cost“Cost Sharing Agreement)Agreement”), a 2005 arbitration award (subsequently confirmed as a judgment), and a September 30, 2014 Funding Agreement (the Funding Agreement)“Funding Agreement”). The Cost Sharing Agreement and the arbitration resolved disputes that arose out of the Company's 1978 sale of its Fox River facilities to API. The Cost Sharing Agreement and arbitration award resulted in a 45% share for NCR of the first $75 million of such costs (a threshold that was reached in 2008), and a 40% share for amounts in excess of $75 million. The Funding Agreement arose out of a 2012 to 2014 arbitration dispute between NCR and API, and provides for regular, ongoing funding of NCR-incurredNCR incurred Fox River remediation costs via contributions, made to a new limited liability corporation created by the Funding Agreement, by BAT, API and, for 2014, API's indemnitor, Windward Prospects. The Funding Agreement creates an obligation on BAT and API to fund 50% of NCR’s Fox River remediation costs from October 1, 2014 forward;forward (API’s Fox River-related obligations under the Funding Agreement were fully satisfied in 2016); the Funding Agreement also provides NCR contractual avenues for payment of, via direct and third-party sources, (1) the difference between BAT’s and API’s 60% obligation under the Cost

Sharing Agreement and arbitration award on the one hand and their ongoing (since September 2014) 50% payments under the Funding Agreement on the other, as well as (2) the difference between the amount NCR received under the Funding Agreement and the amount owed to it under the Cost Sharing Agreement and arbitration award for the period from April 2012 through September 2014. As of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the receivable under the Funding Agreement was approximately $54 million respectively, and was included in otherOther assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.Sheets. The Company anticipates that it will collecttiming of collection of sums related to the receivable after 2021,is uncertain, subject and pursuant to the terms of the Funding Agreement and related agreements. This receivable is not taken into account in calculating the Company’s Fox River net reserve.

The Company's litigations relating to contribution and enforcement claims concerning the Fox River have been concluded. A proposed consent decree settlement (the CD settlement) with respect to the contribution action (a case originally filed by NCR and API) and the government enforcement action (a case originally filed by the federal and state governments against several PRPs, including the Company) was successfully negotiated by NCR and the federal and state governments and was approved on August 22, 2017 by the federal district court in Wisconsin that had been presiding over those cases. A final order of dismissal as to the Company in the contribution and government enforcement actions was subsequently entered; 1 party, Glatfelter, had appealed the approval of the CD settlement. On January 3, 2019, the United States lodged a proposed consent decree with the Wisconsin court, reflecting a settlement reached by the United States, Wisconsin and Glatfelter with respect to Glatfelter’s Fox River liabilityAdditionally, under the government enforcement action; a component of that settlement was withdrawal of Glatfelter’s appeal opposing the Company’s CD settlement. On March 14, 2019, the Wisconsin court approved the Glatfelter consent decree, and on April 3, 2019, Glatfelter's appeal was dismissed.

The CD settlement has now resolved the remaining Fox River-related contribution and enforcement claims against the Company. The key components of the approved CD settlement include (1) the Company’s commitment to complete the remediation of the Fox River, which has now been completed; (2) the Company’s conditional agreement to waive its contribution claims against the 2 remaining defendants in the case, GP and Glatfelter; (3) the Company’s agreement not to appeal the trial court’s decision on divisibility of harm; (4) the Governments’ agreement to include in the settlement so-called “contribution protection” in the Company’s favor as to GP’s and Glatfelter’s contribution claims against the Company, the effect of which will be to extinguish those claims; (5) the Governments’ agreement not to pursue the Company for the Governments’ past oversight costs; and (6) the Governments’ agreement to exercise prosecutorial discretion in pursuing other parties for future oversight costs and long-term monitoring and maintenance, with the Company retaining so-called “backstop” liability in the event that the other parties fail to pay future oversight costs or to perform long-term monitoring and maintenance. Additionally, although certain state law claims by GP and Glatfelter against the Company may not be affected directly by the CD settlement, the CD settlement provides that the Company’s contribution claims against those 2 parties will revive if those parties attempt to assert any claims against the Company relating to the Fox River, including any state law claims.

In the quarter ending September 30, 2017, the remediation general contractor commenced an arbitration against the LLC, in a dispute over contract interpretation. The hearing on this matter was completed in June 2019, and the parties submitted post-trial briefs in August 2019. The amounts claimed by the contractor range from approximately $46 million to approximately $53 million; the Company disputed the claims and contested them vigorously during the hearing. In November 2019, having rejected substantial portions of the claims, the arbitration panel awarded the contractor approximately $10 million. The Company’s indemnitors and co-obligors, described below, were responsible for the majority of the award, with the Company’s share being approximately 25% of the award.

With respect to the Company’s prior dispute with API, which was generally superseded by the Funding Agreement, the Company received timely payments as they came due under the Funding Agreement. Although API filed for bankruptcy protection in October 2017, it had made all of the payments to the Company in connection with the Fox River that are required of it by the Funding Agreement.

NCR's eventual remediation liability, followed by long-term monitoring expected to be performed by others, will depend on a number of factors. In establishing the reserve, NCR attempts to estimate a range of reasonably possible outcomes for each of these factors, although each range is itself uncertain. NCR uses its best estimate within the range, if that is possible. Where there is a range of equally possible outcomes, and there is no amount within that range that is considered to be a better estimate than any other amount, NCR uses the low end of the range. The significant factors include: (1) the total remaining site costs, including the costs associated with decommissioning the site, the expected cost impact of which is expected to be neutral or non-material to the Company, including long-term monitoring following completion of the clean-up, and what parties are assigned to discharge the post-clean-up tasks (as noted, the Company no longer expects to bear long-term monitoring costs); (2) total NRD for the site and the share that NCR will bear (which is now resolved as to the Company); (3) the share of clean-up
28

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
costs that NCR will bear (which is resolved under the CD settlement); (4) NCR's transaction and litigation costs to defend itself to the extent additional litigation is required with respect to claims brought by the general contractor; and (5) the share of NCR's payments that BAT will bear (which is governed by the Cost Sharing Agreement and the Funding Agreement, BAT has made all of the payments requested of it, and as discussed above; API is in bankruptcy and is not presumed likely to bear further shares of NCR’s payments). With respect to NRD, in connection with a certain settlement entered into by other PRPs in 2015, the Government withdrew the NRD claims it had prosecuted on behalf of NRD trustees, including those NRD claims asserted against the Company.
Calculation of the Company's Fox River reserve is subject to several complexities, and it is possible there could be additional changes to some elements of the reserve over upcoming periods, although the Company is unable to predict or estimate such changes at this time. There can be no assurance that the clean-up and related expenditures and liabilities will not have a material effect on NCR's capital expenditures, earnings, financial condition, cash flows, or competitive position. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the gross reserve for the Fox River matter was approximately $6 million as of both periods. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the net reserve for the Fox River matter was approximately $28 million as of both periods. NCR contributes to the LLC to fund remediation activities and generally, by contract, has funded certain amounts of remediation expenses in advance. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximately zero remained from this funding in both periods. NCR's reserve for the Fox River matter is reduced as the LLC makes payments to the remediation contractor and other vendors with respect to remediation activities.

Under a 1996 agreement, AT&T Corp. (AT&T)(“AT&T”) and Nokia (as the successor to Lucent Technologies and Alcatel-Lucent USA) are responsible severally (not jointly) for indemnifying NCR for certain portions of the amounts paid by NCR for the Fox River matter over a defined threshold and subject to certain offsets.offsets for insurance recoveries and net tax benefits, if any. (The agreement governs certain aspects of AT&T's divestiture of NCR and of what was then known as Lucent Technologies.) Those companies have made the payments requested of them by the Company on an ongoing basis.

There could be additional changes to some elements of the reserve over upcoming periods, in view of a final reconciliation of indemnitor payments. Thus there can be no assurance that unexpected expenditures and liabilities will not have a material effect on NCR's capital expenditures, earnings, financial condition, cash flows, or competitive position. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the gross reserve for the Fox River matter was approximately $3 million and $4 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net reserve for the Fox River matter was approximately $25 million and $26 million, respectively. In April 2009, NCR and API formed a limited liability company (the “LLC”). NCR contributes to the LLC to fund remediation activities and generally, by contract, has funded certain amounts of remediation expenses in advance. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately zero remained from this funding. NCR's reserve for the Fox River matter is reduced as the LLC makes payments to the remediation contractor and other vendors with respect to remediation activities.
Kalamazoo River  In November 2010, USEPAThe United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”) issued a “general notice letter” to NCR with respect to the Allied Paper, Inc./Portage Creek/Kalamazoo River Superfund Site (Kalamazoo(“Kalamazoo River site)site”) in Michigan. NaNThree other companies - International Paper, Mead Corporation, and Consumers Energy - also received general notice letters at or about the same time. USEPA asserts that the site is contaminated by various substances, primarily PCBs, as a result of discharges by various paper mills located along the river. USEPA does not claim that the Company made direct discharges into the Kalamazoo River, and NCR never had facilities at or near the Kalamazoo River site, but USEPA indicated that “NCR may be liable under Section 107 of CERCLA ... as an arranger, who by contract or agreement, arranged for the disposal, treatment and/or transportation of hazardous substances at the Site.” USEPA stated that it “may issue special notice letters to [NCR] and other PRPs for future RI/FS [remedial investigation / feasibility studies] and RD/RA [remedial design / remedial action] negotiations.”

In connection with the Kalamazoo River site, in December 2010 the Company, along with 2two other defendants, was sued in federal court by 3 Georgia-Pacific (GP)three GP affiliate corporations in a private-party contribution and cost recovery action for alleged pollution. The suit, pending in Michigan, asks that the Company and other defendants pay a “fair portion” of these companies’ costs. Various removal and remedial actions remain to be decided upon and performed at the Kalamazoo River site, the total costs for which generally remain undetermined; in 2017, Records of Decisions were issued for two parts of the river, and in 2018 such a decision was issued for another part of the river, but such decisions for the majority of the work are expected to be made only over the next several years. The suit alleges that the Company is liable to the GP entities as an “arranger” under CERCLA. The initial phase of the case was tried in a Michigan federal court in February 2013; on September 26, 2013 the court issued a decision that held NCR was liable as an “arranger” as of at least March 1969. (PCB-containing carbonless copy paper was produced from approximately 1954 to April 1971, and the majority of contamination at the Kalamazoo River site had occurred prior to 1969). NCR preserved its right to appeal the September 2013 decision.

In the 2013 decision the Court did not determine NCR’s share of the overall liability. Relative shares of liability for the 4four companies were tried to the court in a subsequent phase of the case in December 2015. In a ruling issued on March 29, 2018, the court addressed responsibility for the costs that GP had incurred in the past, totaling to approximately $50 million (GP had sought approximately $105 million, but $55 million of those claims were removed by the court upon motions filed by the Company and other parties); NCR and GP were each assigned a 40% share of those costs, and the other 2two companies were assigned 15% and 5% as their allocations. The court entered a judgment in the case on June 19, 2018, in which it indicated that it would not allocate future costs, but would enter a declaratory judgment that the four companies together had responsibility for future costs, in amounts and shares to be determined. Cross-proceedings have been commenced to obtain recoveries from the other parties pursuant to the judgment; those proceedings were stayed pending the appeal referenced below.

In July 2018, the Company appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit both the 2013 court decision, which it believes is in conflict with a decision from the Fox River trial court as to Operable Unit 1 of that site and an affirmance of that decision from the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and the 2018 court decision, on various legal grounds. The Company filed a bond to stay any execution of the judgment pending the appeal, and its application for a stay was approved by the court and remains stayed until the Company filed its dismissal of the appeal on December 31, 2020 pursuant to a Consent Decree, noted below.

During the pendency of the Sixth Circuit stay, the Company negotiated a settlement of the Kalamazoo River matter with the USEPA and other government agencies having oversight over the river. On December 5, 2019, the Company entered into a Consent Decree, filed with the District Court on December 11, 2019, and on December 2, 2020, the District Court approved the Consent Decree, which has now resolved all litigation associated with the river clean-up, including the Sixth Circuit appeal. The Consent Decree requires the Company to pay GP its 40% share of past costs, to pay the USEPA and state agencies their past and future administrative costs, and to dismiss its Sixth Circuit appeal. The Consent Decree further requires the Company to take responsibility for the remediation of a portion, but not all, of the Kalamazoo River. The Consent Decree further provides the Company protection from other PRPs, including GP, seeking contribution for their costs associated with the clean-up anywhere on the river, thereby resolving the allocation of future costs left unresolved by the June 19, 2019 judgment.

NCR expects to have claims against BAT and API under the Funding Agreement discussed above for the Kalamazoo River remediation expenses. API filed for bankruptcy protection in October 2017, and thus payment of its potential share under the Funding Agreement for so-called “future sites,” which would include the Kalamazoo River site, may be at risk, but as liability under the Cost Sharing Agreement and the Funding Agreement is joint and several, the bankruptcy is not anticipated to affect the Company’s ability to seek that amount from BAT. The Company will also have indemnity or reimbursement claims against AT&T and Nokia under the arrangement discussed above in connection with the Fox River matter after expenses have met a contractual threshold set out in the 1996 agreement referenced above in the Fox River discussion.
As of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the total reserve for Kalamazoo was $119$93 million and $164$99 million, respectively. That figureThe reserve is reported on a basis that is net of expected contributions from the Company's co-obligors and indemnitors, subject to when the applicable threshold is reached. While the Company believes its co-obligors' and indemnitors' obligations are as previously reported, the reserve reflects changes in positions taken by some of those co-obligors and indemnitors with respect to the Kalamazoo River. The contributions from its co-obligors and indemnitors are expected to range from $70 million to $140$150 million and the Company will continue to pursue such contribution.

As many aspects of the costs of remediation will not be determined for several years (and thus the high end of a range of possible costs for many areas of the site cannot be quantified at this time), the Company has made what it considers to be reasonable estimates of the low end of a range for such costs where remedies are identified, and/or of the costs of investigations
26

Table of Content

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
and studies for areas of the river where remedies have not yet been determined, and the reserve is informed by those estimates. The extent of NCR’s potential liability remains subject to many uncertainties, notwithstanding the settlement of this matter and related Consent Decree noted above, particularly in as much as remedy decisions and cost estimates will not be generated until times in the future and as most of the work to be performed will take place through the 2030s. Under other assumptions or estimates for possible costs of remediation, which the Company does not at this point consider to be reasonably estimable or verifiable, it is possible that the reserve the Company has taken to discontinued operations reflected in this paragraph could more than approximately double the reflected reserve.

Ebina The Company is engaged in cooperative regulatory compliance activities with the government of Japan in connection with certain environmental contaminants generated in its past operations in that country. The Company has quantities of PCB and other wastes primarily from its former plant at Oiso, Japan, including capsulated undiluted solutions manufactured in the past, capacitors, light ballasts and PCB-affected soil from the Oiso plant that was excavated and placed in steel drums. These wastes are stored in a facility at Ebina, Japan in accordance with Japanese regulations governing such materials. Over the past several years Japan has enacted and amended legislation governing such wastes, and has set a current deadline for treating and disposing of (at government-constructed disposal facilities) the highest-concentration wastes by 2027. Lower-concentration wastes can be and have been disposed of via private contractors, and as of the period ended September 30, 2021,2022, NCR had disposed of approximately seventy percent96% of its lower-concentration wastes and approximately forty percent59% of its higher-concentration wastes.

The Company and its consultants have met and communicated regularly with the Japanese agency charged with administration of the law, and are working with that agency on a program to manage disposal of the high-concentration wastes, including tests of technologies to make the disposal more efficient. The government has given its final approvals, and the Company has started
30

Table of Content

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)
to dispose of the high-concentration wastes in 2021, with final deadlines for various of the government-constructed disposal sites currently set for 2022, 2023 and later. Low-concentration wastes are required to be contracted for disposal by 2027, a timetable that the Company expects to meet. In September 2019, the Company’s environmental consultants, following a series of communications and meetings with the Japanese agency, at the Company’s request prepared an estimate of remaining disposal costs over the coming several years. While the estimate is subject to a range of assumptions and uncertainties, including prospects of cost reduction in coordination with the agency as certain field testing to separate high-concentration and low-concentration waste progresses over the coming years, the Company has adjusted its existing reserve for the matter to take into account this cost estimate, and thatestimate. The reserve as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is $18$11 million compared to $20and $16 million, at December 31, 2020.respectively. The Japan environmental waste issue is treated as a compliance matter and not as litigation or enforcement, and the Company has received no threats of litigation or enforcement.

Environmental-Related Insurance Recoveries In connection with the Fox River and other environmental sites, through September 30, 2021,2022, NCR has received a combined gross total of approximately $202$212 million in settlements reached with various of its insurance carriers. Portions of many of these settlements agreed in the 2010 through 2013 timeframe are payable to a law firm that litigated the claims on the Company's behalf. Some of the settlements cover not only the Fox River but also other environmental sites; some are limited to either the Fox River or the Kalamazoo River site. Some of the settlements are directed to defense costs and some are directed to indemnity; some settlements cover both defense costs and indemnity. The Company does not anticipate that further material insurance recoveries specific to Kalamazoo River remediation costs will be available to it, but is currently init has recovered some amounts as a result of settlement discussions with certain carriers over amounts potentially owed tocarriers. In December 2021, the Company.Company recovered approximately $3 million as a result of those discussions and, in the nine months ending September 30, 2022, recovered an additional $7 million. Claims with respect to Kalamazoo River defense costs have now been settled, with the amounts of those settlements included in the sum reported above.

Environmental Remediation Estimates It is difficult to estimate the future financial impact of environmental laws, including potential liabilities. NCR records environmental provisions when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount or range of the liability is reasonably estimableestimable; in accordance with accounting guidance, where liabilities are not expected to be quantifiable or estimable for a period of years, the estimated costs of investigating those liabilities are recorded as a component of the reserve for that particular site. Provisions for estimated losses from environmental restoration and remediation are, depending on the site, based generally on internal and third-party environmental studies, estimates as to the number and participation level of other PRPs, the extent of contamination, estimated amounts for attorney and other fees, and the nature of required clean-up and restoration actions. Reserves are adjusted as further information develops or circumstances change. Management expects that the amounts reserved from time to time will be paid out over the period of investigation, negotiation, remediation and restoration for the applicable sites. The amounts provided for environmental matters in NCR's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are the estimated gross undiscounted amounts of such liabilities, without deductions for indemnity insurance, third-party indemnity claims or recoveries from other PRPs, except as qualified in the following sentences. In those cases where insurance carriers or third-party indemnitors have agreed to pay any amounts and management believes that collectability of such amounts is probable, the amounts are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Financial

Other Matters Kristen Schertzer, et al On March 1, 2019, Cardtronics was named as a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit stylized as Kristen Schertzer, et al. v. Bank of America, N.A., et al., Case No. 3:19-cv-00264, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, which alleges harm related to balance inquiry transactions. On September 28, 2020, the District Court issued a denial of Cardtronics’ motion to dismiss and the matter proceeded to the discovery phase. In October 2021, Cardtronics and the putative class representative agreed to settle this matter as to the company only on an individual plaintiff basis. The litigation continues as to the other defendants. Cardtronics will soon be dismissed from the case.

Guarantees and Product Warranties In the ordinary course of business, NCR may issue performance guarantees on behalf of its subsidiaries to certain of its customers and other parties. Some of those guarantees may be backed by standby letters of credit, surety bonds, or similar instruments. In general, under the guarantees, NCR would be obligated to perform, or cause performance, over the term of the underlying contract in the event of an unexcused, uncured breach by its subsidiary, or some other specified triggering event, in each case as defined by the applicable guarantee. NCR believes the likelihood of having to perform under any such guarantee is remote. As of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, NCR had no material obligations related to such guarantees, and therefore its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not have any associated liability balance.

NCR provides its customers a standard manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. Estimated future obligations due to warranty claims are based upon historical factors, such as labor rates, average repair time, travel time, number of service calls per machine and cost of replacement parts. When a sale is consummated, the total customer revenue is recognized, provided that all revenue recognition criteria are otherwise satisfied, and the associated warranty liability is recorded using pre-established warranty percentages for the respective product classes. Warranty reserve liabilities are presented in Other current liabilities and Other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

From time to time, product design or quality corrections are accomplished through modification programs. When identified, associated costs of labor and parts for such programs are estimated and accrued as part of the warranty reserve.

The Company recorded the activity related to the warranty reserve for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as follows:

In addition, NCR provides its customers with certain indemnification rights. In general, NCR agrees to indemnify the customer if a third partythird-party asserts patent or other infringement on the part of its customers for its use of the Company’s products subject to certain conditions that are generally standard within the Company’s industries. On limited occasions the Company will undertake additional indemnification obligations for business reasons. From time to time, NCR also enters into agreements in connection with its acquisition and divestiture activities that include indemnification obligations by the Company. The fair value of these indemnification obligations is not readily determinable due to the conditional nature of the Company’s potential obligations and the specific facts and circumstances involved with each particular agreement. The Company has not recorded a liability in connection with these indemnifications, and no current indemnification instance is material to the Company’s financial position. Historically, payments made by the Company under these types of agreements have not had a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Purchase Commitments The Company has purchase commitments for materials, supplies, services, and property, plant and equipment as part of the normal course of business. This includes a long-term service agreement with Accenture, under which many of NCR's key transaction processing activities and functions are performed.


11. LEASING

Lessee We lease property, vehicles and equipment under operating and financing leases.  For leases with terms greater than 12 months, we record the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. We determine the lease term by assuming the exercise of renewal options that are reasonably certain. Leases with a lease term 12 months or less at lease commencement are not recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Our leases may include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into our determination of lease payments when appropriate. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Our incremental borrowing rate is based on a credit-adjusted risk-free rate at commencement date, which best approximates a secured rate over a similar term of lease. Additionally, we do not separate lease and non-lease components for any asset classes, except for those leases embedded in certain service arrangements. Fixed and in-substance fixed payments are included in the recognition of the operating and financing assets and lease liabilities, however, variable lease payments, other than those based on a rate or index, are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company’s variable lease payments generally relate to payments tied to various indices, non-lease components and payments above a contractual minimum fixed payment.

12. SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend at the rate of 5.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, dividends are payable in cash or in-kind at the option of the Company. If the Company does not declare and pay a dividend, the dividend rate will increase to 8.0% per annum until all accrued but unpaid dividends have been paid in full. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid cash dividends of $3 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company paid dividends-in-kind of $6$3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid cash dividends of $11 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company paid total dividends

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holders at any time into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $30.00 per share, or a conversion rate of 33.333 shares of common stock per share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the maximum number of common shares that could be required to be issued upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was 9.2 million shares, respectively.shares.


13.12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (EPS)(“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income or loss attributable to NCR, less any dividends (declared or cumulative undeclared), deemed dividends, accretion or decretion, redemption or induced conversion on our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

In computing diluted EPS, we evaluate and reflect the maximum potential dilution, for each issue or series of issues of potential common shares in sequence from the most dilutive to the least dilutive. We adjust the numerator used in the basic EPS computation, subject to anti-dilution requirements, to add back the dividends (declared or cumulative undeclared), deemed dividends, accretion or decretion, redemption or induced conversion on our applicable to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Such add-back would also include any adjustments to equity in the period to accrete the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to its redemption price, or recorded upon a redemption or induced conversion. We adjust the denominator used in the basic EPS computation, subject to anti-dilution requirements, to include the dilution from potential shares related toresulting from the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, restricted stock units, and stock-based compensation plans.stock options.

14.13. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING INSTRUMENTS

NCR is exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risk through management of core business activities. We manage interest rate risk associated with our vault cash rental obligations and floating rate-debt by managing the amount, sources, and duration of debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. ToThe Company uses interest rate cap agreements or interest rate swap contracts (“Interest Rate Derivatives”) to manage differences in the amount, timing and

Further, a substantial portion of our operations and revenue occur outside the U.SUnited States and, as such, NCR has exposure to approximately 5045 functional currencies. Our results can be significantly impacted, both positively and negatively, by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company seeks to mitigate such impact by hedging its foreign currency transaction exposure using foreign currency forward and option contracts.

We do not enter into hedges for speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Exchange and Interest Rate Risk

The accounting guidance for derivatives and hedging requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company designates foreign exchange and interest rate contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions when they are determined to be highly effective at inception.

Our risk management strategy includes hedging, on behalf of certain subsidiaries, a portion of our forecasted, non-functional currency denominated cash flows for a period of up to 15 months. As a result, some of the impact of currency fluctuations on nonfunctional currency denominated transactions (and hence on subsidiary operating income, as stated in the functional currency), is mitigated in the near term. In the longer term (greater than 15 months), the subsidiaries are still subject to the effect of translating the functional currency results to United States Dollars. To manage our exposures and mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on the operations of our foreign subsidiaries, we hedge our main transactional exposures through the use of foreign exchange forward and option contracts. This is primarily done through the hedging of foreign currency denominated inter-company inventory purchases by NCR’s marketing units and the foreign currency denominated inputs to our manufacturing units. If the hedge is designated as a highly effective cash flow hedge, the gains or losses are deferred into accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). The gains or losses from derivative contracts that are designated as highly effective cash flow hedges related to inventory purchases are recorded in cost of products when the inventory is sold to an unrelated third party. Otherwise, they are recorded in earnings when the exchange rates change. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the balance in AOCI related to foreign exchange derivative transactions was zero.

We also utilize foreign exchange contracts to hedge our exposure of assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. We recognize the gains and losses on these types of hedges in earnings as exchange rates change.

Interest Rate Risk The Company designates Interest Rate Derivative contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions when they are determined to be highly effective at inception.

We utilize interest rate swap contracts or interest rate cap agreements to add stability to interest expensecost and to manage exposure to interest rate movements as part of our interest rate risk management strategy.

In June 2022, the Company executed $2.4 billion aggregate notional amount interest rate swap contracts effective June 1, 2022 and terminating on April 1, 2025. These interest rate swap contracts have fixed rates ranging from 2.790% to 3.251%, and have been designated as cash flow hedges of the floating rate interest associated with the Company's U.S. Dollar and U.K. Pound Sterling vault cash agreements.

Amounts reported in Accumulated other comprehensive income related to these derivatives will be reclassified to Cost of services as payments are made on the Company’s vault cash rental obligations. Unrealized gains on terminated interest rate swap and cap agreements reported in Accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to Interest expense and Cost of services ratably over terms corresponding to the original agreements, as described above. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the balance in AOCI related to Interest Rate Derivatives was $125 million and $8 million, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk
NCR is potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk on accounts receivable and financial instruments such as hedging instruments and cash and cash equivalents. Credit risk includes the risk of nonperformance by counterparties. The maximum potential loss may exceed the amount recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Exposure to credit risk is managed through credit approvals, credit limits, selecting major international financial institutions (asas counterparties to hedging transactions)transactions and monitoring procedures. NCR’s business often involves large transactions with customers, and if one or more of those customers were to default on its obligations under applicable contractual arrangements, the Company could be exposed to potentially significant losses. However, management believes that the reserves for expectedpotential losses are adequate. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any significantmajor concentration of credit risk related to financial instruments.

Deposits Held in Money Market Mutual Funds A portion of the Company’s excess cash is held in money market mutual funds that generate interest income based on prevailing market rates. Money market mutual fund holdings are measured at fair value using quoted market prices and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

Foreign Investments The investments primarily include an investment fund similar to a mutual fund. The investments are valued using observable, either directly or indirectly, inputs for substantially the full term of the assets and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Foreign Exchange Contracts As a result of our global operating activities, we are exposed to risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which may adversely affect our financial condition. To manage our exposures and mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on our financial results, we hedge our primary transactional exposures through the use of foreign exchange forward and option contracts. The foreign exchange contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market transactions of forward rates and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swap and Cap Agreements In order to add stability to interest expense and operating costs and to manage exposure to interest rate movements the Company utilizes interest rate swap contracts and interest rate cap agreements as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The interest rate cap agreements are valued using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rise above the strike rate of the caps. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. As such, theThe interest rate cap agreementsswap contracts are classified in Level 2valued using an income model based on disparity between variable and fixed interest rates, the scheduled balance of the fair value hierarchy.

outstanding, yield curves, and other information readily available in the market. As such, the interest rate swap contracts and interest rate cap agreements are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we consider the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements. We measure the credit risk of our derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.

Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments utilize Level 3 inputs to evaluate the likelihood of both our own default and counterparty default. As of September 30, 2021,2022, we determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives and therefore, the valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

From time to time, certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). NCR reviews the carrying values of investments when events and circumstances warrant and considers all available evidence in evaluating when declines in fair value are other-than-temporary declines. There were no material impairment charges or non-recurring fair value adjustments recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 20212022 and 2020.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVES AND TRENDS

In order to provide long-term value to all of our stakeholders, we set complementary business goals and financial strategies. NCR is continuing its transition to become a software platform and payments company with a shift to a higher level of recurring revenue. Our business goal is to be a software and services-led company, and to be the leading enterprise technology provider of choice that runs banks, stores, restaurants and restaurants around the worldself-directed banking through our NCR-as-a-Service solutions that help banks, stores and restaurants run better, so they have more time to create customer experiences that drive lasting success. Our financial strategy is to transition our revenue mix so that 80 percent of our total revenue is comprised of software and services revenue, 60 percent of our total revenue is comprised of recurring revenue,platform and our adjusted EBITDA margin rate increases to 20 percent.NCR-as-a-Service solutions. Execution of our goals and strategy is driven by the following key pillars: (i) focus on our customers; (ii) take care of our employees; (iii) bring high-quality, innovative products to market; and (iv) leverage our brand.

As we strive to achieve these aspirational goals, we plan to capitalize on opportunities presented by the acquisitions of Cardtronics and LibertyX to accelerate our Payments & Network business as we go to market with a more robust offering in this segment. We also plan to continue to improve our execution to drive solid returns and to transform our business to enhance value for all shareholders.

On September 15, 2022, NCR announced a plan to separate into two independent, publicly traded companies – one focused on digital commerce, the other on ATMs. The digital commerce company is expected to be a growth business positioned to leverage NCR’s software-led model to continue transforming, connecting and running global retail, hospitality and digital banking. We believe it will enhance common solutions to drive innovation and boost operational efficiency. The digital commerce company is expected to also reinvest in the business to accelerate growth and recurring revenue.

The ATM company is expected to be a cash-generative business positioned to focus on delivering ATM as a Service to a large, installed customer base across banks and retailers. We believe it will build on NCR’s leadership in self-service banking and ATM networks to meet global demand for ATM access and leverage new ATM transaction types, including digital currency

solutions, to drive market growth. The ATM company is expected to also continue shifting to a highly recurring revenue model to drive stable cash flow and capital returns to shareholders.

The separation is intended to be structured in a tax-free manner. The separation transaction will follow the satisfaction of customary conditions, including effectiveness of appropriate filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the completion of audited financial statements. The current target is to complete the separation by the end of 2023.

Cybersecurity Risk Management

Similar to most companies, NCR and its customers are subject to more frequent and increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity attacks. The Company maintains cybersecurity risk management policies and procedures including disclosure controls, which it regularly evaluates for updates, for handling and responding to cybersecurity events.

The COVID-19 pandemic is complex and continues to evolve. While it is difficult to project the long-term impact of the pandemic, we expect it will negatively impact our business at least in the short-term. The ultimate impact on our overall financial condition and operating results will depend on the currently unknowable duration and severity of the pandemic, supply chain challenges and cost escalations including materials, labor and freight, and any additional governmental and public actions taken in response.

The war in Eastern Europe and related sanctions imposed on Russia and related actors have resulted in interest rate acceleration and inflation, including, but not limited to, a significant increase in the price of energy around the world, particularly in regions such as Europe that are significantly dependent on Russia for their energy needs, and continued commodity price increases due to disruption in the mining industry in Ukraine and other factors. The war in Eastern Europe has also contributed to further disruption in logistics due to the shipping difficulties in and around the Black Sea and its ports, which have resulted in the rerouting of traffic to other ports and further logistics challenges.

We expect that these factors will continue to negatively impact our business at least in the short-term. The ultimate impact on our overall financial condition and operating results will depend on the currently unknowable duration and severity of these activities. We continue to evaluate the long-term impact that COVID-19these may have on our business model. Theremodel, however there can be no assurance that the measures we have taken or will take will completely offset the negative impact of COVID-19.impact.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:Measures and Use of Certain Terms:

The term “annual recurring revenue” is recurring revenue, excluding software license sold as a subscription, for the last three months times four, plus the rolling four quarters for term-based software license arrangements that include customer termination rights.
Constant Currency NCR presents certain financial measures, such as period-over-period revenue growth, on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation by translating prior period results at current period monthly average exchange rates. Due to the overall variability of foreign exchange rates from period to period, NCR’s management uses constant currency measures to evaluate period-over-period operating performance on a more consistent and comparable basis. NCR’s management believes that presentation of financial measures without this result may contribute to an understanding of the Company's period-over-period operating performance and provides additional insight into historical and/or future performance, which may be helpful for investors.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)(“Adjusted EBITDA”) NCR's management uses the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA because it provides useful information to investors as an indicator of strength and performance of the Company's ongoing business operations, including funding discretionary spending such as capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions, and other investments. NCR determines Adjusted EBITDA based on GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to NCR plus interest expense, net; plus income tax expense (benefit); plus depreciation and amortization; plus stock-based compensation expense; plus other income (expense); plus pension mark-to-market adjustments, pension settlements, pension curtailments and pension special termination benefits and other special items, including amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and restructuring charges, among others.

Special Item Related to Russia

Consolidated Results

The following table showswar in Eastern Europe and related sanctions imposed on Russia and related actors by the United States and other jurisdictions required us to commence the orderly wind down of our resultsoperations in Russia beginning in the first quarter of 2022. As of September 30, 2022, we have ceased operations in Russia and are in the process of dissolving our only subsidiary in Russia. As a result, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, our non-GAAP presentation of the relative percentage that those amounts representmeasures described above exclude the immaterial impact of our operating results in Russia, as well as the impact of impairments taken to write down the carrying value of assets and liabilities, severance charges, and the assessment of collectability on revenue recognition. We consider this to be a non-recurring special item and management has reviewed the results of its business segments excluding these impacts. We have not adjusted the presentation of the prior year periods due to the immaterial impact of Russia to revenue and income from continuing operations for the changethree and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

NCR's definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly-titled measures reported by other companies and cannot, therefore, be compared with similarly-titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for, or superior to, results determined in those amounts year-over-year.accordance with GAAP.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities was $245 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $807 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $495 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.2021. The increasedecrease in cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 20212022 was driven by higherthe unfavorable movement in net working capital accounts, partially offset by cash received upon termination of interest rate swap contracts in the first and second quarters of 2022. Additionally, cash provided by operating earnings and as well asactivities in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflects the agreement entered into during the third quarter of 2021 to sell short-term receivables from certain trade accounts to an unaffiliated financial institution, which provided a $274 million benefit to operating cash flows. Refer to Note 6, Trade“Trade Receivables Facility inFacility”, of the notesNotes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Report for more information.

NCR’s management uses a non-GAAP measure called “free cash flow” to assess the financial performance of the Company. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, less additions to capitalized software, plus/minus restricted cash settlement activity, plus acquisition-related items, less the impact from the initial sale of trade accounts receivables under the agreement entered into during the 3rd quarter of 2021, and plus pension contributions and settlements. We believe free cash flow information is useful for investors because it relates the operating cash flows from the Company’s continuing and discontinued operations to the capital that is spent to continue and improve business operations. In particular, free cash flow indicates the amount of cash available after capital expenditures for, among other things, investments in the Company’s existing businesses, strategic acquisitions, repurchases of NCR stock and repayment of debt obligations. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, since there may be other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from the measure. Free cash flow does not have a uniform definition under GAAP, and therefore NCR’s definition may differ from other companies’ definitions of this measure. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, cash flows from operating activities under GAAP.

Item 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. It is our policy to manage our foreign exchange exposure and debt structure in order to manage capital costs, control financial risks and maintain financial flexibility over the long term. In managing market risks, we employ derivatives according to documented policies and procedures, including foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Since a substantial portion of our operations and revenue occur outside the United States, and in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, our results can be significantly impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We have exposure to approximately 5045 functional currencies and are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk with respect to our sales, profits and assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Although we use financial instruments to hedge certain foreign currency risks, we are not fully protected against foreign currency fluctuations and our reported results of operations could be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To manage our exposures and mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on the operations of our foreign subsidiaries, we hedge our main transactional exposures through the use of foreign exchange forward and option contracts. These foreign exchange contracts are designated as highly effective cash flow hedges. This is primarily done through the hedging of foreign currency denominated inter-company inventory purchases by the marketing units and the foreign currency denominated inputs to our manufacturing units. All of these transactions are forecasted. If these contracts are designated as highly effective cash flow hedges, the gains or losses are deferred into accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The gains or losses from derivative contracts that are designated as highly effective cash flow hedges related to inventory purchases are recorded in cost of products when the inventory is sold to an unrelated third party. Otherwise, the gains or losses from these contracts are recognized in earnings as exchange rates change. We also use derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consisting primarily of forward contracts to hedge foreign currency denominated balance sheet exposures. For these derivatives we recognize gains and losses in the same period as the remeasurement losses and gains of the related foreign currency-denominated exposures.

We utilize non-exchange traded financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts, that we purchase exclusively from highly rated financial institutions. We record these contracts on our balance sheet at fair market value based upon market price quotations from the financial institutions. We do not enter into non-exchange traded contracts that require the use of fair value estimation techniques, but if we did, they could have a material impact on our financial results.

For purposes of analyzing potential risk, we use sensitivity analysis to quantify potential impacts that market rate changes may have on the fair values of our hedge portfolio related to firmly committed or forecasted transactions. The sensitivity analysis represents the hypothetical changes in value of the hedge position and does not reflect the related gain or loss on the forecasted underlying transaction. A 10% appreciation in the value of the U.S. Dollar against foreign currencies from the prevailing market rates would have resulted in a corresponding decrease in the fair value of the hedge portfolio of $23$2 million as of September 30, 2021.2022. A 10% depreciation in the value of the U.S. Dollar against foreign currencies from the prevailing market rates would have resulted in a corresponding increase in the fair value of the hedge portfolio of $26$2 million as of September 30, 2021.2022. The Company expects that any increase or decrease in the fair value of the portfolio would be substantially offset by increases or decreases in the underlying exposures being hedged.

The U.S. Dollar was weakerstronger in the third quarter of 20212022 compared to the third quarter of 20202021 based on comparable weighted averages for our functional currencies. This excludes the effects of our hedging activities and, therefore, does not reflect the actual impact of fluctuations in exchange rates on our operating income.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk principally in relation to variable-rate debt. Approximately 59%57% of our borrowings were on a fixed rate basis as of September 30, 2021.2022. The increase in pre-tax interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 20212022 from a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in variable interest rates would be approximately $9$17 million excluding. As of September 30, 2022, we do not have any impact from outstanding interest rate cap agreements.derivative contracts related to our variable rate debt.

Table of Contents
Additionally, as our ATM vault cash rental expense is based on market rates of interest, it is sensitive to changes in applicable interest rates in the respective countries in which we operate. We pay a monthly fee on the average outstanding vault cash balances in our ATMs under floating rate formulas based on a spread above various interbank offered rates. The increase in vault cash rental expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in variable interest rates would be approximately $10 million, excluding the impact from outstanding interest rate swap agreements.

We utilize interest rate swap contracts and interest rate cap agreements to add stability to interest expense and to manage exposure to interest rate movements as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Payments and receipts related to interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swap contracts are included in cash flows from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Refer to Note 13, “Derivatives and Hedging Instruments”, for further information on our interest rate derivative contracts in effect as of September 30, 2022.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk on accounts receivable and financial instruments, such as hedging instruments and cash and cash equivalents. Credit risk includes the risk of nonperformance by counterparties. The maximum potential loss may exceed the amount recognized on the balance sheet. Exposure to credit risk is managed through credit approvals, credit limits, selecting major international financial institutions (asas counterparties to hedging transactions)transactions, and monitoring procedures. Our business often involves large transactions with customers for which we do not require collateral. If one or more of those customers were to default in its obligations under applicable contractual arrangements, we could be exposed to potentially significant losses. Moreover, a prolonged downturn in the global economy could have an adverse impact on the ability of our customers to pay their obligations on a timely basis. We believe that the reserves for potential losses are adequate. As of September 30, 2021,2022, we did not have any significant concentration of credit risk related to financial instruments.

Item 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
NCR has 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)) to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by NCR in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by NCR in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to NCR’s management, including its Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the third quarter of 2021,2022, conducted under their supervision and with the participation of management, the Company’s Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers have concluded that NCR’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to meet such objectives and that NCR’s disclosure controls and procedures adequately alert them on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in NCR’s Exchange Act filings.

We completed the Cardtronics acquisition on June 21, 2021 (see Note 2, Business Combinations of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). The scope of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures did not include the internal controls over financial reporting of Cardtronics. This exclusion is in accordance with the SEC Staff’s general guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of management’s assessment for one year following the acquisition. Cardtronics represented approximately 15% of our gross revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Total assets of the acquired business as of September 30, 2021 represented approximately 27% of total consolidated assets, consisting principally of goodwill and other intangible assets.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

ThereIn the third quarter of 2022, we began implementing a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, which will replace many of our existing core financial systems. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain our financial records used to report operating results. The implementation will occur in phases and began this quarter. On a quarterly basis, we will continue to evaluate whether there are material changes that impact our internal control over financial reporting.

Other than the ERP system implementation, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 20212022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The information required by this item is included in Note 10, Commitments“Commitments and ContingenciesContingencies” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this quarterly report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A.    RISK FACTORS


The following information with respect to the acquisitionplanned separation of Cardtronics plc (“Cardtronics”)NCR into two independent, publicly traded companies supplements the disclosure set forth under Part I, Item IA (“Risk Factors”) of the Company's 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”). In addition to the items noted below, the risk associated with the Cardtronics business are similar to those NCR faces in many respects, and therefore the acquisition will in many cases increase our exposure to the risks noted in our Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that are currently not believed to be significant to our business may also affect our actual results and could harm our business, financial conditions and results of operations. If any of the risks and uncertainties described below or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

The planned separation of NCR may be unableinto two independent, publicly traded companies – one focused on digital commerce, the other on ATMs, is subject to integrate the business of Cardtronics successfully or realize certain anticipated benefits. The legal acquisition of Cardtronics closed on June 21, 2021. NCR may fail to realize the anticipated benefitsvarious risks and synergies, which could adversely affect the business, financial conditionuncertainties and operating results of the Company. The success of the acquisition will depend, in significant part, on the ability to successfully integrate the acquired business, grow the revenue of the combined company and realize the anticipated strategic benefits and synergies from the combination. This growth and anticipated benefits may not be realized fullycompleted in accordance with the expected plans or anticipated timeline, or at all, and will involve significant time, expense, and resources, which could disrupt or adversely affect our business.

On September 15, 2022, NCR announced a plan to separate into two independent, publicly traded companies – one focused on digital commerce, the other on ATMs. The current target is to complete the separation by the end of 2023. We cannot assure that the transactions will be completed on the anticipated timeline or at all or may take longer than expectedthat the terms of the separations will not change. The transactions will follow the satisfaction of customary conditions, including effectiveness of appropriate filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the completion of audited financial statements. The failure to realize. Actual operating technological, strategic and revenue opportunities, if achievedsatisfy any of the required conditions could delay the completion of the separation for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring at all.

The ability to obtain or consummate financing or refinancing related to the transaction upon acceptable terms, or at all (including not having a credit rating and not having access to the capital markets for any newly formed entity that houses the digital commerce or ATM business); risks associated with third party contracts containing consent and/or other provisions that may be triggered by the planned separation and; unanticipated developments, including changes in the competitive conditions of our markets, delays in obtaining various tax opinions or rulings, negotiating challenges, the uncertainty of the financial markets, changes in the law, requests or requirements of governmental authorities related to existing liabilities and challenges in executing the separation of the two businesses, could delay or prevent the completion of the planned separation, or cause the planned separation to occur on terms or conditions that are different or less significantfavorable than initially expected. Any changes to the planned separation or delay in completing the planned separation could cause us not to realize some or all of the expected benefits, or may take longerrealize them on a different timeline than initially expected. Further, our Board of Directors could decide, either because of a failure of conditions or because of market or other factors, to achieve than anticipated. Ifabandon the planned separation.

Whether or not we are not able to achieve these objectives, NCR'scomplete the planned separation, our ongoing business financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

Uncertainties associated with the acquisition may cause loss of management personnelaffected and other key employees of NCR and Cardtronics, which could adversely affect the future business and operations following the acquisition. NCR and Cardtronics are dependent on the experience and industry knowledge of their officers and other key employees to execute their business plans. Success after the acquisition will depend in part upon NCR's and Cardtronics' ability to retain key management personnel and other key employees. Current and prospective employees may experience uncertainty about their roles following the acquisition which may have an adverse effect on the ability to retain personnel after the acquisition, including key management, who are critical to the future operations of the combined company. We could face disruptions in operations, loss of existing customers, loss of key information, expertise or know-how and unanticipated additional requirements and training costs. In addition, the loss of key personnel could diminish the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. No assurance can be given that we will be able to retain or attract key management personnel and other key employees of NCR and Cardtronics to the same extent that NCR and Cardtronics have previously been able to retain or attract their own employees.

Unknown or developing litigation or claims involving Cardtronics could result in the payment of damages or other remedies, or cause reputational harm to NCR. Cardtronics may be exposed to unknown or developing claims, which could result in one or more litigation matters being asserted against the Company or its subsidiaries. Additionally, stockholder lawsuits are often brought against companies that have entered into merger agreements. Defending against any of these claims, even where the claims are without merit, can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. If we are unsuccessful in our defense of any of these claims, we may be forced to pay damages or be subject to other remedies, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, or cause reputational harm to NCR.

We are subject to certain additional significant risks and uncertainties from the Cardtronics business and industry. Asconsequences as a result of pursuing the acquisition,planned separation, including the following additional risks where identified relate to the Cardtronics business and industry.following:

We have incurred expenses in connection with the planned separation, and expect that the process of completing the planned separation will be time-consuming and involve significant additional costs and expenses, which may not yield a discernible benefit if the planned separation is not completed.
Executing the planned separation will require significant time and attention from our senior management and employees, which may divert management’s attention from operating and growing our business and could adversely affect our business, financial results, and results of operations. Our employees may also be distracted due to uncertainty about their future roles with the separate companies.
We may also experience increased difficulties in attracting, retaining, and motivating employees during the pendency, and following completion, of the transactions, which could harm our businesses.
If the planned separation is not completed, we will still be required to pay certain costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, such as legal, accounting, and other professional fees.
Some of our customers or suppliers may delay or defer decisions or may end their relationships with us.
We may experience negative reactions from the financial markets if we fail to complete the planned separation or fail to complete it on a timely basis.
The proliferationannouncement of payment options and increasingly frictionless methods of payment other than cash, including credit cards, debit cards, stored-value debit cards, contactless, and mobile payments options, could result in a reduced need for cashthe planned separation may cause some investors to sell our shares, creating greater volatility in the marketplacetrading price of our shares and a resulting decline in the usage of Cardtronics ATMs. The continued growth in electronic payment methods, such as mobile phone payments, contactless payments and card only self-service order and payment terminals could result in a reduced need for cash in the marketplace and ultimately, a decline in the usage of ATMs. New payment technology, such as Venmo, Zelle, Square Cash, Facebook Messenger Payments and virtual currencies such as Bitcoin, or other new payment method preferences by consumers could reduce the general population’s need or demand for cash and negatively impact Cardtronics ATM transaction volumes in the future.potentially causing market prices to decline.

Cardtronics derives a significant portion of its revenues from ATM and financial services transaction fees which could beWe may experience the inability to access or reduced by a decline in the usage of ATMs, the ability to charge cardholders fees to use ATMs and the level of transaction fees received, or a decline in the number of ATMs that are operated by Cardtronics, whether as a result of changes in consumer spending preferences, global economic conditions, or otherwise. Additionally, should banks or other ATM operators decrease or eliminate the fees they charge to users of their ATMs or otherwise offer free access to their networks, such action would make transactions at Cardtronics' ATMs comparatively more expensive to consumers and could adversely impact transaction volumes and revenue.the capital markets or increased cost of borrowing.

A substantial portionAny of the revenue from Cardtronics is placed with a small number of merchants. The expiration, termination or renegotiation of any of these contracts, or if one or more of these merchants were to cease doing business with Cardtronics or substantially reduce its dealings with Cardtronics,above factors could cause Cardtronics' revenuesthe separation (or the failure to decline significantlyexecute the separation) to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and the trading price of our common stock.

The planned separation may not achieve the anticipated benefits and will expose us to new risks as the digital commerce company and the ATM company will have different financial profiles and each will be a smaller, less diversified company than NCR as it exists today.

We may not realize the anticipated strategic, financial, operational, or other benefits from the planned separation. We cannot predict with certainty when the benefits expected from the planned separation will occur or the extent to which they will be achieved, or that the costs or dis-synergies of the transaction will not exceed the anticipated amounts. The planned separation will result in the digital commerce company and the ATM company being smaller, less diversified companies with more limited businesses concentrated in their respective industries than NCR as a whole. As a result, each company may be more vulnerable to changing market conditions, which could adversely impact ourhave a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the diversification of revenues, costs, and cash flows will diminish, such that each company’s results of operations, cash flows, working capital, effective tax rate, and financing requirements may be subject to increased volatility and its ability to fund capital expenditures and investments, pay dividends and service debt may be diminished. The announcement and/or completion of the planned separation may cause uncertainty for or disruptions with our customers, partners, suppliers, and employees, which may negatively impact these relationships or our operations. In addition, we will incur one-time costs and ongoing costs in connection with, or as a result of, the planned separation, including costs of operating as independent, publicly-traded companies that the two companies will no longer be able to share. Those costs may exceed our estimates or could negate some of the benefits we expect to realize. If we do not realize the intended benefits or if our costs exceed our estimates, we or the business that is spun off could suffer a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations, and trading price of us or the separated business.

The majorityIf the planned separation is completed, the trading price of the electronic debit networks over which transactions are conducted require sponsorship by a bank,our common stock may decline and the loss of any of sponsors and the inability to find a replacement may cause disruptions to Cardtronics' operations. In each of the geographic markets, bank sponsorship is required in order to process transactions over certain networks. In all of the markets served by Cardtronics, ATMs are connected to financial transaction switching networks operated by organizations such as Visa and MasterCard. The rules governing these switching networks require any company sending transactions through these networks to be a bank or a technical service processor that is approved and monitored by a bank. As a result, the operation of the ATM network in all of the markets served by Cardtronics depends on the ability to secure these “sponsor” arrangements with financial institutions.experience greater volatility.

Interchange fees may be lowered in some cases at the discretion of the various EFT networks through which transactions are routed, or through potential regulatory changes, thus reducing Cardtronics' future revenues and operating profits. Future changes in interchange rates, some of which we have minimal or no control over, could have an adverse impact on our operations and cash flows.

Non-compliance with established EFT network rules and regulations could expose Cardtronics to fines, penalties or other liabilities and could negatively impact results of operations. Additionally, new EFT network rules and regulations could require significant amounts of capital to remain in compliance with such rules and regulations. Transactions are routed over various EFT networks to obtain authorization for cash disbursements and to provide account balances. These networks primarily include Star, Pulse, NYCE, Cirrus (MasterCard), and Plus (Visa) in the U.S., and LINK in the U.K., among other networks. EFT networks set the interchange fees that they charge to the financial institutions, as well as the amounts paid to Cardtronics. Additionally, EFT networks, including MasterCard and Visa, establish rules and regulations that ATM providers, including Cardtronics, must comply with in order for member cardholders to use those ATMs. Failure to comply with such rules and regulations could result in penalties and/or fines, which could negatively impact our financial results.

There is a significant amount of vault cash within Cardtronics' ATMs, which is subject to potential loss due to theft, civil unrest or other events, including natural disasters. Third parties are also relied upon in the various regions to provide Cardtronics with the cash required to operate many of the ATMs. If these third parties were unable or unwilling to provide the necessary cash to operate the ATMs, there would be a need to identify alternative sources of cash to operate the ATMs or Cardtronics would not be able to operate this business.

The election by Cardtronics merchant customers not to participate in the surcharge-free network offerings could impact the effectiveness of those offerings, which would negatively impact Cardtronics financial results. Financial institutions that are members of the Allpoint network pay a fee in exchange for allowing their cardholders to use selected Cardtronics-owned, managed and/or participating ATMs on a surcharge-free basis. The success of the Allpoint network is dependent upon the participation by Cardtronics merchant customers in that network. In the event a significant number of Cardtronics merchants elect not to participate in the Allpoint network, the benefits and effectiveness of the network would be diminished, thus potentially causing some of the participating financial institutions to not renew their agreements, terminate early, and/or trigger financial penalties, thereby having a negative impact on Cardtronics financial results.

The cash-in-transit business exposes Cardtronics to additional risks beyond those experienced from the ownership and operation of ATMs. The cash-in-transit operation in the U.K. delivers cash to and collects residual cash from ATMs in that market. The cash-in-transit business exposes Cardtronics to significant risks, including the potential for cash-in-transit losses, employee theft, as well as claims for personal injury, wrongful death, worker’s compensation, punitive damages, and general liability

Errors or omissions in the settlement of merchant funds or in the vault cash reconciliations could damage relationships with customers and vault cash providers, respectively, and expose Cardtronics to liability. Cardtronics are responsible for maintaining accurate bank account information for certain merchant customers, financial institution customers and vault cash providers and accurate settlements of funds into these accounts based on the underlying transaction activity.

Total indebtedness followingUpon completion of the acquisitionplanned separation, because the trading price for our shares will be substantially greater than NCR’s indebtedness prior to completionno longer reflect the value of the acquisition. This increased level of indebtedness could adversely affect NCR, including by decreasing NCR’sseparated business, flexibility and increasing its interest expense. NCR has incurred acquisition-related financing of approximately $2.6 billion, all of which was used to pay the acquisition’s consideration as well as pay fees and expenses related to the acquisition. Accordingly, total indebtedness following completion of the acquisition is substantially greatersuch trading price may be lower than NCR’s indebtedness prior to completion of the acquisition. NCR’s substantially increased indebtedness following completion of the acquisition could have the effect, among other things, of reducing NCR’s flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions. In addition, the amount of cash required to pay interest has increased due to NCR’s increased indebtedness levels, thus the demands on NCR’s cash resources will be greater than the amount of cash flows required to service the indebtedness of NCRimmediately prior to the acquisition. If NCR does not achieve the expected benefits and cost savings from the acquisition, or if the financial performance of the combined company does not meet current expectations, then NCR’s ability to service its indebtedness, or to reduce leverage levels based on debt repayments or cash flow generation, may be adversely impacted.

Item 2.    UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On October 19, 2016, the Board approved a share repurchase program, with no expiration from the date of authorization, for the systematic repurchase of the Company’s common stock to offset the dilutive effects of the Company’s employee stock purchase plan, equity awards and in-kind dividends on the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Availability under this program accrues quarterly based on the average value of dilutive issuances during the quarter.

On March 12, 2017, the Board approved a second share repurchase program, with no expiration from the date of authorization, that provides for the repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company’s common stock. On July 25, 2018, the Board authorized an incremental $200 million of share repurchases under this program.

As of September 30, 2021,2022, $153 million was available for repurchases under the March 2017 program, and approximately $620$790 million was available for repurchases under the October 2016 dilution offset program. The timing and amount of repurchases under these programs depend upon market conditions and may be made from time to time in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated stock repurchase programs, issuer self-tender offers or otherwise. The repurchases will be made in compliance with applicable securities laws and may be discontinued at any time.

The Company occasionally purchases vested restricted stock or exercised stock options at the current market price to cover withholding taxes.taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, 2022, less than 0.1 million shares were purchased at an average price of $43.57$31.65 per share.
