We consolidate all variable-interestvariable interest entities (VIEs) where we are the primary beneficiary. For VIEs, we assess whether we are the primary beneficiary as prescribed by the accounting guidance on the consolidation of VIEs. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the party that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the entity. Please refer to Note 78 for more information.

We have customers and dealers that are VIEs of which we are not the primary beneficiary. Although we have provided financial support to these entities and therefore have a variable interest, we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance. Our maximum exposure to loss from our involvement with these VIEs is limited to the credit risk inherently present in the financial support that we have provided. These risks are evaluated and reflected in our financial statements as part of our overall portfolio of finance receivables and related allowance for credit losses.
2.New Accounting Pronouncements
 
A.Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Revenue recognitionLease accounting (Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02)In May 2014,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new revenue recognition guidance to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. Under the new guidance, an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. A five step model has been introduced for an entity to apply when recognizing revenue. The new guidance also includes enhanced disclosure requirements and is effective January 1, 2018. Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented, or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance recognized at the date of initial application within the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholder's Equity. We will adopt the new guidance effective January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective approach. We have completed our evaluation of the impact of the new standard and do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities – In January 2016, the FASB issued accounting guidance that affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities accounted for under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Under the new guidance, all equity investments in unconsolidated entities (other than those accounted for using the equity method of accounting) will generally be measured at fair value through earnings. There will no longer be an available-for-sale classification for equity securities with readily determinable fair values. For financial liabilities when the fair value option has been elected, changes in fair value due to instrument-specific credit risk will be recognized separately in other comprehensive income. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new guidance is effective January 1, 2018, with the cumulative effect adjustment from initially applying the new guidance recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of the beginning of the year of adoption. We do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial statements.
UNAUDITED




Lease accounting – In February 2016, the FASB issued accounting guidance that revises the accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for substantially all leases. The new guidance will continue to classify leases as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. The accounting applied by a lessor under the new guidance will be substantially equivalent to current lease accounting guidance. The new guidance iswas effective January 1, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The new standard is required to beand was applied withusing a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment to eachretained earnings as of January 1, 2019. The prior reporting period presentedcomparative information has not been recasted and continues to be reported under the accounting guidance in effect for those periods.

The new guidance provides for certaina number of optional practical expedients.expedients in transition. We are inelected the process"package of evaluating the effect ofpractical expedients," which allows us not to reassess under the new guidance our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs.  We did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient. In addition, the new guidance provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing lessee accounting. We have elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for the majority of our asset classes.  We have elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify which means we will not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for these leases with a term of twelve months or less. 

The most significant effects of adoption relate to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on our balance sheet for operating leases and providing new disclosures about our leasing activities.  The adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations.
UNAUDITED



In March 2019, the FASB issued Leases - Codification improvements (ASU 2019-01) which amended the new leasing guidance. Under these amendments, lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers will use their cost, less any discounts that may apply, as the fair value of the underlying asset, and lessors within the scope of Financial Services-Depository and Lending guidance will present all principal payments received under leases within investment activities on the statement of cash flows.  We adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2019, and the adoption did not have a material impact to our financial statements.

See Note 4 for additional information.

Reclassification of certain tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income (ASU 2018-02) – In February 2018, the FASB issued accounting guidance to allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from U.S. tax reform legislation. We adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2019 and the resulting reclassification was included in the period of adoption. The reclassification resulted in decreased retained earnings and increased AOCI of $97 million. 

The following ASUs were effective January 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact on our financial statements.statements:

B.Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Measurement of creditCredit losses on financial instruments(ASU 2016-13)In June 2016, the FASB issued accounting guidance to introduce a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. The new guidance will apply to loans, accounts receivable, trade receivables, other financial assets measured at amortized cost, loan commitments and other off-balance sheet credit exposures. The new guidance will also apply to debt securities and other financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted beginning January 1, 2019. We are in the process of evaluatingAn implementation team continues to evaluate data requirements and methodologies and has started designing new processes and controls. The team is also modeling results to assess the effect of the new guidance on our financial statements. We plan to adopt the new guidance effective January 1, 2020.

Classification for certain cash receiptsWe consider the applicability and cash payments – In August 2016, the FASB issued accounting guidance relatedimpact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed above were assessed and either determined to the presentation and classification of certain transactions in the statement of cash flows where diversity in practice exists. The guidance is effective January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. We dobe not expect the adoptionapplicable or not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Classification of restricted cash – In November 2016, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to the presentation and classification of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows where diversity in practice exists. The new standard is required to be applied with a retrospective approach. The guidance is effective January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Derivatives and hedging – In August 2017, the FASB issued accounting guidance to better align hedge accounting with a company’s risk management activities, simplify the application of hedge accounting and improve the disclosures of hedging arrangements. The new guidance is required to be applied on a modified retrospective basis. The guidance is effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the effect of the new guidance on our financial statements.

Allowance for Credit Losses 
The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the losses inherent in our finance receivable portfolio and includes consideration of accounts that have been individually identified as impaired, as well as pools of finance receivables where it is probable that certain receivables in the pool are impaired but the individual accounts cannot yet be identified.   In identifying and measuring impairment, management takes into consideration past loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of underlying collateral and current economic conditions.  

Accounts are identified for individual review based on past-due status and information available about the customer, such as financial statements, news reports and published credit ratings, as well as general information regarding industry trends and the economic environment in which our customers operate. The allowance for credit losses attributable to finance receivables that are individually evaluated and determined to be impaired is based either on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the receivables' effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent receivables or the observable market price of the receivable.  In determining collateral value, we estimate the current fair market value of the collateral less selling costs. We also consider credit enhancements such as additional collateral and contractual third-party guarantees. The allowance for credit losses attributable to the remaining accounts not yet individually identified as impaired is estimated based on loss forecast models utilizing probabilities of default, our estimate of the loss emergence period and the estimated loss given default.  In addition, qualitative factors not able to be fully captured in our loss forecast models including industry trends, macroeconomic factors and model imprecision are considered in the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses.  These qualitative factors are subjective and require a degree of management judgment.
 
Our allowance for credit losses is segregated into three portfolio segments:

Customer - Finance receivables with retailend-user customers.
Dealer - Finance receivables with Caterpillar dealers.
Caterpillar Purchased Receivables - Trade receivables purchased from Caterpillar entities.

A portfolio segment is the level at which the Company develops a systematic methodology for determining its allowance for credit losses.

We further evaluate our portfolio segments by the class of finance receivables, which is defined as a level of information (below a portfolio segment) in which the finance receivables have the same initial measurement attribute and a similar method for assessing and monitoring credit risk. Typically, our finance receivables within a geographic area have similar credit risk profiles and methods for assessing and monitoring credit risk. Our classes, which align with management reporting for credit losses, are as follows:

North America - Includes financeFinance receivables originated in the United States and Canada.
EuropeEAME - Includes financeFinance receivables originated in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
Asia/Pacific - Includes financeFinance receivables originated in Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia.India.

Credit quality of finance receivables
At origination, we evaluate credit risk based on a variety of credit quality factors including prior payment experience, customer financial information, credit-rating agency ratings, loan-to-value ratios and other internal metrics. On an ongoing basis, we monitor credit quality based on past-due status and collection experience as there is a meaningful correlation between the past-due status of customers and the risk of loss.

In determining past-due status, we consider the entire recorded investment in finance receivablereceivables past due when any installment is over 30 days past due. The tables below summarize our recorded investment in finance receivables by aging category.

Impaired finance receivables
For all classes, a finance receivable is considered impaired, based on current information and events, if it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms. Impaired finance receivables include finance receivables that have been restructured and are considered to be Troubled Debt Restructures.troubled debt restructures.

There were $78 million in impaired finance receivables with a related allowance of $39 million and $14 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, for the Dealer portfolio segment, all of which was in Latin America. There were no impaired finance receivables as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, for the Dealer and Caterpillar Purchased Receivables portfolio segments.segment.

Recognition of income is suspended and the finance receivable is placed on non-accrual status when management determines that collection of future income is not probable (generally after 120 days past due). Recognition is resumed and previously suspended income is recognized when the finance receivable becomes current and collection of remaining amounts is considered probable. Payments received while the finance receivable is on non-accrual status are applied to interest and principal in accordance with the contractual terms.

Troubled debt restructurings
A restructuring of a finance receivable constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) when the lender grants a concession it would not otherwise consider to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. Concessions granted may include extended contract maturities, inclusion of interest only periods, below market interest rates, extended skip payment periods and reduction of principal and/or accrued interest.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no additional funds committed to lend to a borrower whose terms have been modified in a TDR. As of December 31, 2016, there were $11 million of additional funds committed to lend to a borrower whose terms have been modified in a TDR.

There were no finance receivables modified as TDRs during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and 20162018 for the Dealer or Caterpillar Purchased Receivables portfolio segments. Our recorded investment in finance receivables in the Customer portfolio segment modified as TDRs were as follows:

4.Leases

A.Lessor Arrangements

We lease Caterpillar equipment, machinery, engines and other equipment to customers primarily through sales-type (non-tax) leases, where the lessee for tax purposes is considered to be the owner of the equipment during the term of the lease. We also offer tax leases that are classified as either operating or direct finance leases for financial accounting purposes, depending on the characteristics of the lease. For tax purposes, we are considered the owner of the equipment.

Our lease agreements may include options for the lessee to purchase the underlying asset at the end of the lease term for either a stated fixed price or fair market value.   

UNAUDITED


The residual values for leased assets, which are an estimate of the market value of leased equipment at the end of the lease term, are based on an analysis of historical wholesale market sales prices, projected forward on a level trend line without consideration for inflation or possible future pricing action. At the inception of the lease, residual values are estimated with consideration of the following critical factors: market size and demand, any known significant market/product trends, total expected hours of usage, machine configuration, application, location, model changes, quantities, past remarketing experience, third-party residual guarantees and contractual customer purchase options. Many of these factors are gathered in an application survey that is completed prior to quotation. The lease agreement also clearly defines applicable return conditions and remedies for non-compliance, to ensure that the leased equipment will be in good operating condition upon return. Model changes and updates, as well as market strength and product acceptance, are monitored and adjustments are made to residual values in accordance with the significance of any such changes. Our sales staff work closely with customers and dealers to manage the sale of lease returns and the recovery of residual exposure.

The residuals for leases classified as operating leases are included in Equipment on operating leases, net in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The residuals for leases classified as finance leases are included in Finance receivables, net in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

During the term of our operating leases, we evaluate the carrying value of our equipment on a regular basis taking into consideration expected residual values at lease termination. Adjustments to depreciation expense reflecting revised estimates of expected residual values at the end of the lease terms are recorded prospectively on a straight-line basis. For finance leases, residual value adjustments are recognized through a reduction of finance revenue.

We typically pay property taxes on tax leases directly to two customers, withthe taxing authorities and invoice the lessee for reimbursement. These property tax reimbursements are accounted for as variable lease payments and are included in Operating lease revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Profit. We individually assess our operating lease receivables for impairment. If collectability of a recorded investment of $16 million withoperating lease receivable is not considered probable, we recognize a payment default (defined as 91+ days past due) which had been modified within twelve months prior to the default date in the Customer portfolio segment, all of which were in the Latin America finance receivable class.current-period adjustment against operating lease revenue.

4.B.Lessee Arrangements

We lease certain property, vehicles and other equipment primarily through operating leases. We recognize a lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset based on the present value of lease payments. To determine the present value of lease payments for most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available on the lease commencement date. We have elected not to separate payments for lease components from non-lease components. Our lease agreements may include options to extend or terminate the lease. When it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option, we have included the option in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Our variable lease costs primarily include maintenance, taxes and insurance.

5.Derivative Financial Instruments and Risk Management
     
Our earnings and cash flow are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.  Our Risk Management Policy (policy) allows for the use of derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate exposures.  Our policy specifies that derivatives are not to be used for speculative purposes.  Derivatives that we use are primarily foreign currency forward, option and cross currency contracts and interest rate contracts.  Our derivative activities are subject to the management, direction and control of our senior financial officers.  Risk management practices, including the use of financial derivative instruments, are presented to our Board of Directors and the Audit Committee of the Caterpillar Inc. Board of Directors at least annually.

All derivatives are recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position at their fair value.  On the date the derivative contract is entered into, the derivative instrument is (1) designated as a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability (fair value hedge), (2) designated as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows (cash flow hedge) or (3) undesignated.  Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is qualified, designated and highly effective as a fair value hedge, along with the gain or loss on the hedged recognized asset or liability that is attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in current earnings.  Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is qualified, designated and highly effective as a cash flow hedge are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) (AOCI), to the extent effective, on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position until they are reclassified to earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.  Changes in the fair value of undesignated derivative instruments and the ineffective portion of designated derivative instruments are reported in current earnings.  Cash flows from designated derivative financial instruments are classified within the same category as the item being hedged on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.  Cash flows from undesignated derivative financial instruments are included in the investing category on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
 
We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions.  This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and linking cash flow hedges to specific forecasted transactions or variability of cash flow.

We also formally assess, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the designated derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flow of hedged items.  When a derivative is determined not to be highly effective as a hedge or the underlying hedged transaction is no longer probable, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively in accordance with derecognition criteria for hedge accounting.

UNAUDITED


Foreign currency exchange rate risk
We have balance sheet positions and expected future transactions denominated in foreign currencies, thereby creating exposure to movements in exchange rates. In managing foreign currency risk, our objective is to minimize earnings volatility resulting from conversion and the remeasurement of net foreign currency balance sheet positions and future transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  Our policy allows the use of foreign currency forward, option and cross currency contracts to offset the risk of currency mismatch between our assets and liabilities and exchange rate risk associated with future transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  Our foreign currency forward option and cross currencyoption contracts are primarily undesignated. We designate fixed-to-fixed cross currency contracts as cash flow hedges to protect against movements in exchange rates on foreign currency fixed ratefixed-rate assets and liabilities.
 
Interest rate risk
Interest rate movements create a degree of risk by affecting the amount of our interest payments and the value of our fixed-rate debt.  Our practice is to use interest rate contracts to manage our exposure to interest rate changes.
 
We have a match-funding policy that addresses interest rate risk by aligning the interest rate profile (fixed or floating rate and duration) of our debt portfolio with the interest rate profile of our finance receivable portfolio within predetermined ranges on an ongoing basis.  In connection with that policy, we use interest rate derivative instruments to modify the debt structure to match assets within the finance receivable portfolio.  This matched funding reduces the volatility of margins between interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities, regardless of which direction interest rates move.

Our policy allows us to use fixed-to-floating, floating-to-fixed and floating-to-floating interest rate contracts to meet the match-funding objective.  We designate fixed-to-floating interest rate contracts as fair value hedges to protect debt against changes in fair value due to changes in the benchmark interest rate.  We designate most floating-to-fixed interest rate contracts as cash flow hedges to protect against the variability of cash flows due to changes in the benchmark interest rate.

UNAUDITED



As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017, $22019, $3 million of deferred net gains,losses, net of tax, included in equity (AOCI in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position), related to our floating-to-fixed interest rate contracts, are expected to be reclassified to Interest expense over the next twelve months.  The actual amount recorded in Interest expense will vary based on interest rates at the time the hedged transactions impact earnings.
 
We have, at certain times, liquidated fixed-to-floating interest rate contracts that resulted in deferred gains at the time of liquidation. The deferred gains associated with these interest rate contracts are included in Long-term debt in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and are being amortized to Interest expense over the remaining term of the previously designated hedged item.

Balance sheet offsetting
We enter into International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) master netting agreements that permit the net settlement of amounts owed under their respective derivative contracts. Under these master netting agreements, net settlement generally permits us or the counterparty to determine the net amount payable for contracts due on the same date and in the same currency for similar types of derivative transactions. The master netting agreements generally also provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with a counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event.

Collateral is generally not required of the counterparties or us under the master netting agreements. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, no cash collateral was received or pledged under the master netting agreements.

6.7.Segment Information

A.     Basis for Segment Information

We report information internally for operating segments based on management responsibility. Our operating segments offerprovide financing alternatives to customers and dealers around the world for the purchase and lease of Caterpillar and other equipment,products, as well as financing for vehicles, power generation facilities and marine vessels that, in most cases, incorporate Caterpillar sales to dealers.products. Financing plans include operating and finance leases, installment sale contracts, working capital loans and wholesale financing plans within each of the respective segments.

B.     Description of Segments

We have fivesix operating segments that offer financing services. Following is a brief description of our segments:

North America - Includes our operations in the United States and Canada.
EuropeEAME - Includes our operations in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States.  
Asia/Pacific - Includes our operations in Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia.India.

Mining - Serves large mining customers worldwide and provides project financing in various countries. 

C.     Segment Measurement and Reconciliations

Cash, debt and other expenses are allocated to our segments based on their respective portfolios. The related Interest expense is calculated based on the amount of allocated debt and the rates associated with that debt. The performance of each segment is assessed based on a consistent leverage ratio. The Provision for credit losses is based on each segment's respective finance receivable portfolio. Capital expenditures include expenditures for equipment on operating leases and other miscellaneous capital expenditures.

UNAUDITED



Reconciling items are created based on accounting differences between segment reporting and consolidated external reporting. For the reconciliation of profit before income taxes, we have grouped the reconciling items as follows:

Unallocated - This item is related to corporate requirements and strategies that are considered to be for the benefit of the entire organization. Also included are the consolidated results of the special purpose corporation (see Note 78 for additional information) and other miscellaneous items.
Timing - Timing differences in the recognition of costs between segment reporting and consolidated external reporting.
UNAUDITED


Methodology - Methodology differences between segment reporting and consolidated external reporting are as follows:
Segment assets include off-balance sheet managed assets for which we maintain servicing responsibilities.
The impact of differences between the actual leverage and the segment leverage ratios.
Interest expense includes realized forward points on foreign currency forward contracts.
The net gain or loss from interest rate derivatives.
The profit attributable to noncontrolling interests is considered a component of segment profit.

7.8.Guarantees
 
We provide loan guarantees to third-party lenders for financing associated with machinery purchased by customers.  These guarantees have varying terms and are secured by the machinery being financed. We also provide residual value guarantees to third-party lenders associated with machinery leased to customers. These guarantees have varying terms. In addition, we participate in standby letters of credit issued to third parties on behalf of our customers.  These standby letters of credit have varying terms and beneficiaries and are secured by customer assets.

No significant loss has been experienced or is anticipated under any of these guarantees.  At SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, the related recorded liability was less than $1 million and less than $1 million, respectively. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted and without reduction for any amounts that may possibly be recovered under recourse or collateralized provisions) we could be required to make under the guarantees was $87$99 million and $43$97 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively.
UNAUDITED




We provide guarantees to repurchase certain loans of Caterpillar dealers from a special purpose corporation (SPC) that qualifies as a VIE (see Note 1 for additional information regarding the accounting guidance on the consolidation of VIEs).  The purpose of the SPC is to provide short-term working capital loans to Caterpillar dealers.  This SPC issues commercial paper and uses the proceeds to fund its loan program.  We have a loan purchase agreement with the SPC that obligates us to purchase certain loans that are not paid at maturity.  We receive a fee for providing this guarantee, which provides a source of liquidity for the SPC.  We are the primary beneficiary of the SPC as our guarantees result in us having both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the SPC's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses and therefore we have consolidated the financial statements of the SPC. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, the SPC’s assets of $1.10$1.37 billion and $1.09$1.15 billion, respectively, were primarily comprised of loans to dealers, which are included in Finance receivables, net in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, and the SPC's liabilities of $1.10$1.37 billion and $1.09$1.15 billion, respectively, were primarily comprised of commercial paper, which is included in Short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.  The assets of the SPC are not available to pay our creditors. We may be obligated to perform under the guarantee if the SPC experiences losses. No loss has been experienced or is anticipated under this loan purchase agreement.

8.9.Fair Value Measurements
A.Fair Value Measurements
The guidance on fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.  This guidance also specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques.  Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions.  In accordance with this guidance, fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 – Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value-drivers are unobservable.

When available, we use quoted market prices to determine fair value and we classify such measurements within Level 1. In some cases where market prices are not available, we make use of observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2.  If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon valuations in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable, including internally developed models that use, where possible, current market-based parameters such as interest rates, yield curves and currency rates.  These measurements are classified within Level 3.

Fair value measurements are classified according to the lowest level input or value-driver that is significant to the valuation.  A measurement may therefore be classified within Level 3 even though there may be significant inputs that are readily observable.

Fair value measurement includes the consideration of nonperformance risk.  Nonperformance risk refers to the risk that an obligation (either by a counterparty or us) will not be fulfilled.  For financial assets traded in an active market (Level 1), the nonperformance risk is included in the market price.  For certain other financial assets and liabilities (Level 2 and 3), our fair value calculations have been adjusted accordingly.

Derivative financial instruments
The fair value of interest rate contracts is primarily based on standard industry accepted models that utilize the appropriate market-based forward swap curves and zero-coupon interest rates to determine discounted cash flows.  The fair value of foreign currency forward and cross currency contracts is based on a standard industry accepted valuation modelmodels that discountsdiscount cash flows resulting from the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate.
 
Derivative financial instruments are measured on a recurring basis at fair value and are classified as Level 2 measurements.   We had derivative financial instruments in a net assetliability position included in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Position of $3 million and $64$24 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019, and in a net asset position of $49 million as of December 31, 2016, respectively.2018.

UNAUDITED



Impaired loans
Our impaired loans are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are classified as Level 3 measurements. A loan is considered impaired when management determines that collection of contractual amounts due is not probable. In these cases, an allowance for credit losses may be established based either on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the receivables' effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent receivables or the observable market price of the receivable. In determining collateral value, we estimate the current fair market value of the collateral less selling costs. We had impaired loans carried at the fair value of $251$417 million and $137$469 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively.
B.Fair Values of Financial Instruments
B.Fair Values of Financial Instruments
In addition to the methods and assumptions we use to record the fair value of financial instruments as discussed in the Fair Value Measurements section above, we used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments.instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents – carrying amount approximated fair value. 
Finance receivables, net – fair value was estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates representative of receivables with similar remaining maturities. 
Restricted cash and cash equivalents – carrying amount approximated fair value. 
Short-term borrowings – carrying amount approximated fair value. 
Long-term debt – fair value for fixed and floating-rate debt was estimated based on quoted market prices.
Guarantees – fair value of guarantees is based on our estimate of the premium a market participant would require to issue the same guarantee in a stand-alone, arms-length transaction with an unrelated party.  If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that utilize current market-based assumptions.

Please refer to the table below for the fair values of our financial instruments.

The increase in the estimated annual tax rate is primarily due to changes in the geographic mix of profits.

The provision for income taxes in the second quarter of 2019 also included a $13 million charge for a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets of a non-U.S. subsidiary.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 

OVERVIEW

We reported third-quarter 2017second-quarter 2019 revenues of $673$757 million, an increase of $22$34 million, or 35 percent, compared with the thirdsecond quarter of 2016. 2018. Second-quarter 2019 profit was $79 million, an $8 million, or 11 percent, increase from the second quarter of 2018.

The increase in revenues was primarily due to a $15$26 million favorable impact from higher average financing rates and a $14 million favorable impact from lending activity with Caterpillar,higher average earning assets, partially offset by a $6$10 million unfavorable impact from lower average earning assets.due to the termination of a committed credit facility with Caterpillar and the absence of the related fees.

ProfitSecond-quarter 2019 profit before income taxes was $126$141 million, fora $41 million, or 41 percent, increase from the thirdsecond quarter of 2017, compared with $146 million for the third quarter of 2016.2018. The decreaseincrease was primarily due to a $19$33 million increasedecrease in provision for credit losses and a $16$28 million increase in net yield on average earning assets. These favorable impacts were partially offset by a $14 million increase in general, operating and administrative expenses primarily dueand the $10 million unfavorable impact mentioned above related to higher incentive compensation. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset bythe termination of a $9 million favorable impact from lending activitycommitted credit facility with Caterpillar and an $8 million increase in net yield on average earning assets.Caterpillar.

Total Portfolio Metrics
At the end of the thirdsecond quarter of 2017,2019, past dues were 2.733.38 percent, compared with 2.773.16 percent at the end of the thirdsecond quarter of 2016.2018. The increase in past dues was primarily driven by EAME. Total non-performing finance receivables, which represent finance receivables currently on non-accrual status, were $692$858 million and $580$885 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively. Total non-performing finance receivables as a percentage of our recorded investment in finance receivables were 2.572.98 percent and 2.183.11 percent at SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively.

Our allowance for credit losses as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 was $343$523 million or 1.271.81 percent of our recorded investment in finance receivables compared with $343$511 million or 1.291.80 percent as of December 31, 2016.2018. The allowance is subject to an ongoing evaluation based on many quantitative and qualitative factors, including past loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of underlying collateral and current economic conditions. We believe our allowance is sufficient to provide for losses inherent in our existing finance receivable portfolio as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
 
Capital resources and liquidity provide us with the ability to meet our financial obligations on a timely basis.  Maintaining and managing adequate capital and liquidity resources includes management of funding sources and their utilization based on current, future and contingent needs. Throughout the thirdsecond quarter of 2017,2019, we experienced favorable liquidity conditions. We ended the thirdsecond quarter of 20172019 with $710$760 million of cash, a decrease of $1.09 billion$6 million from year-end 2016.2018. Our cash balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world with approximately $385$337 million held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries. Amounts held by non-U.S. subsidiaries are available for general corporate use and could be used in the U.S. without incurring significant additional U.S. taxes. We expect to meet our U.S. funding needs without repatriating undistributed profits that are indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S.
 
BORROWINGS
Borrowings consist primarily of medium-term notes and commercial paper, the combination of which is used to manage interest rate risk and funding requirements.

We receive debt ratings from the major credit rating agencies. In December 2016, Moody's Investors Service downgraded our long-term ratings to A3 from A2,Moody’s long- and short-term ratings toof our debt is A3 and Prime-2, from Prime-1.  The Moody’s downgrade didwhile Fitch and S&P maintain a “mid-A” debt rating. This split rating has not havehad a material impact on our borrowing costs or our overall financial health. A furtherHowever, a downgrade of our credit ratings by Moody's or oneany of the other major credit rating agencies would result in increased borrowing costs and could make access to certain credit markets more difficult. However, our long-term ratings with Fitch and S&P continue to be "mid-A". In the event economic conditions deteriorate such that access to debt markets becomes unavailable, we would rely on cash flows from our existing portfolio, existing cash balances, access to our revolving credit facilities and our other credit line facilities and potential borrowings from Caterpillar. In addition, Caterpillar maintains a support agreement with us, which requires Caterpillar to remain as our sole owner and may, under certain circumstances, require Caterpillar to make payments to us should we fail to maintain certain financial ratios.

Total borrowings outstanding as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 were $28.58$29.92 billion, a decrease of $687$141 million over December 31, 2016.2018. Outstanding borrowings were as follows:

Revolving credit facilities
We have three global credit facilities with a syndicate of banks totaling $10.50 billion (Credit Facility) available in the aggregate to both Caterpillar and us for general liquidity purposes.  Based on management's allocation decision, which can be revised from time to time, the portion of the Credit Facility available to us as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 was $7.75 billion. Information on our Credit Facility is as follows:

In September 2017, we entered into a new 364-day facility. The 364-day facility of $3.15 billion (of which $2.33 billion is available to us) expires in September 2018.2019.
In September 2017, we amended and extended the three-year facility. The three-year facility, as amended in September 2018, of $2.73 billion (of which $2.01 billion is available to us) now expires in September 2020.2021.
In September 2017, we amended and extended the five-year facility. The five-year facility, as amended in September 2018, of $4.62 billion (of which $3.41 billion is available to us) now expires in September 2022.2023. 

At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, Caterpillar’s consolidated net worth was $15.69$14.86 billion, which was above the $9.00 billion required under the Credit Facility.  The consolidated net worth is defined in the Credit Facility as the consolidated shareholders' equity including preferred stock but excluding the pension and other postretirement benefits balance within Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss).

At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, our covenant interest coverage ratio was 1.881.60 to 1. This is above the 1.15 to 1 minimum ratio, calculated as (1) profit excluding income taxes, interest expense and net gain/(loss) from interest rate derivatives to (2) interest expense, calculated at the end of each calendar quarter for the rolling four quarter period then most recently ended, required by the Credit Facility.

In addition, at SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, our six-month covenant leverage ratio was 7.208.23 to 1.  This is below the maximum ratio of debt to net worth of 10 to 1, calculated (1) on a monthly basis as the average of the leverage ratios determined on the last day of each of the six preceding calendar months and (2) at each December 31, required by the Credit Facility.

In the event that either Caterpillar or we do not meet one or more of our respective financial covenants under the Credit Facility in the future (and are unable to obtain a consent or waiver), the syndicate of banks may terminate the commitments allocated to the party that does not meet its covenants.  Additionally, in such event, certain of our other lenders under other loan agreements where similar financial covenants or cross default provisions are applicable, may, at their election, choose to pursue remedies under those loan agreements, including accelerating the repayment of outstanding borrowings. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Bank borrowings
Available credit lines with banks as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 totaled $4.59$4.84 billion. These committed and uncommitted credit lines, which may be eligible for renewal at various future dates or have no specified expiration date, are used primarily by our non-U.S. subsidiaries for local funding requirements. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, we had $1.56$1.10 billion outstanding against these credit lines and were in compliance with all debt covenants under these credit lines. The remaining available credit commitments may be withdrawn any time at the lenders' discretion.

Variable denomination floating rate demand notes
We obtain funding from the sale of variable denomination floating rate demand notes, which may be redeemed at any time at the option of the holder without any material restriction.  We do not hold reserves to fund the payment of the demand notes.  The notes are offered on a continuous basis. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, there was $477$398 million of variable denomination floating rate demand notes outstanding. The maximum amount of variable denomination floating rate demand notes that we may have outstanding at any time may not exceed $1.25 billion.

Notes receivable from/payable to Caterpillar
Under our variable amount and term lending agreements and other notes receivable with Caterpillar, we may borrow up to $2.77$2.79 billion from Caterpillar and Caterpillar may borrow up to $2.64$2.05 billion from us.  The variable amount lending agreements are in effect for indefinite periods of time and may be changed or terminated by either party with 30 days notice.  The term lending agreements have remaining maturities ranging up to nine years. We had notes payable of $1.49$1.31 billion and notes receivable of $1.58 billion$640 million outstanding under these agreements as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We lease all of our facilities. In addition, we have potential payment exposure for guarantees issued to third parties totaling $87$99 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019.
