Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(In millions, except per share data and unless otherwise indicated)

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Pactiv Evergreen Inc. (“PTVE”) and its subsidiaries (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair ~~presentation~~statement of the results for the interim periods and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 filed with the SEC on ~~February 24, 2022.~~March 7, 2023. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the ~~fiscal~~ year ending December 31, ~~2022.~~2023. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although our current estimates contemplate current conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, as appropriate, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from what was anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations, balance sheet and cash flows. Among other effects, such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangibles and long-lived assets, and adjustments to reserves for employee benefits and income taxes. The estimated recoverable amounts associated with asset impairments represent Level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy, which include inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has had, and may continue to have, a significant impact on our results of operations, and it may also have additional far-reaching impacts on many aspects of our operations including the impact on customer behaviors, business and manufacturing operations, our employees and the market in general. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity may differ from management’s current estimates due to inherent uncertainties regarding the progress of the pandemic, actions taken to contain the virus, the implementation and effectiveness of vaccinations and how quickly and to what extent economic and operating conditions evolve.

Recent Accounting ~~Guidance Issued but Not Yet Adopted as of September 30, 2022~~

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Under current GAAP, an acquirer generally recognizes assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including contract assets and contract liabilities arising from revenue contracts with customers, at fair value on the acquisition date. This ASU will result in the acquirer recording acquired contract assets and liabilities on the same basis that would have been recorded by the acquiree before the acquisition under ASC 606. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods, for any financial statements that have not yet been issued. This ASU should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. While the impact of this ASU is dependent on the nature of any future transactions, we currently do not expect this ASU to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (Topic 848). This ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This ASU is effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through the end of calendar year 2022. While we currently do not expect this new guidance to have a significant

We reviewed all ~~other~~ recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. ~~Acquisitions and Dispositions~~

~~Acquisitions~~

~~On October 1, 2021, we acquired~~ ~~100% of the outstanding ownership interests of Fabri-Kal LLC, Monarch Mill Pond LLC and Pure Pulp Products LLC (collectively, “Fabri-Kal”) for a purchase price of $378~~ ~~million, including final adjustments for cash, indebtedness and working capital of $~~2 million which was paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Fabri-Kal is a U.S. manufacturer of thermoformed plastic packaging products. Its products include portion cups, lids, clamshells, drink cups and yogurt containers for the institutional foodservice and consumer packaged goods markets. The acquisition includes ~~four~~ manufacturing facilities in the U.S. The acquisition broadened our portfolio of sustainable packaging products and expanded our manufacturing capacity to better serve our customers. The acquisition was funded with our existing cash resources and a portion of the U.S. term loans Tranche B-3 incurred in September 2021.

The Fabri-Kal acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and the results of operations were included in our condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Included in our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) are Fabri-Kal’s net revenues of $~~114~~ ~~million and $337~~ ~~million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.~~

~~We allocated finite-lived intangible assets acquired to the Foodservice segment which included $~~56 ~~million of customer relationships with an estimated life of~~ ~~eight~~ ~~years and $~~34 ~~million of trademarks with an estimated life of~~ ~~ten years. We increased the cost of acquired inventories by $~~12 ~~million, all of which was expensed as a component of cost of sales during the year ended December 31, 2021. We allocated $~~69 ~~million of goodwill to the Foodservice segment, of which $~~41 million is expected to be tax deductible. Goodwill arises principally as a result of expansion opportunities provided by Fabri-Kal’s manufacturing capacity to better serve our customers, in addition to plant operational synergies. The purchase price allocation in the table above is based on our final valuation analysis and reflects measurement period adjustments we recorded during the

~~Pactiv Evergreen Inc.~~

~~Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements~~

~~(In millions, except per share data and unless otherwise indicated)~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 which increased goodwill by $~~3 million. These adjustments related to reductions in inventories, property, plant and equipment and accrued and other current liabilities, and the related deferred tax effects. None of these adjustments were individually significant.

Real property and personal property fair values were determined using the cost approach. The fair values for customer relationships at the acquisition date were determined using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant assumptions used in assessing the fair value of the customer relationships intangible asset were forecasted Adjusted EBITDA margins and contributory asset charges. Trademark fair values were determined using the relief from royalty method. The fair value measurements of intangible assets are based on significant unobservable inputs and thus represent Level 3 inputs.

Note 3. Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges

On March 6, 2023, we announced the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, a plan approved by our Board of Directors to take significant restructuring actions related to our Beverage Merchandising operations. The Beverage Merchandising Restructuring includes, among other things:

•

Closure of our Canton, North Carolina mill, including the cessation of mill operations, during the second quarter of 2023;

•

Closure of our Olmsted Falls, Ohio converting facility and concurrent reallocation of production to our remaining converting facilities during the second quarter of 2023; and

•

Reorganizing our operating and reporting structure to achieve increased efficiencies and related cost savings.

The Beverage Merchandising Restructuring resulted in a workforce reduction of approximately 1,300 employees. We also continue to explore strategic alternatives for our Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill and our Waynesville, North Carolina facility. We have not set a timetable in relation to this process.

~~There were no restructuring, asset impairment and other related~~Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, we incurred charges during the three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2023, and we estimate we will incur further charges in future periods, as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023		For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023		Total Expected Charges(1)
Non-cash:
Accelerated property, plant and equipment depreciation	$	177	$	267	$	280
Other non-cash charges(2)		10		43	45 - 50
Total non-cash charges		187		310	325 - 330
Cash:
Severance, termination and related costs		7		39		45
Exit, disposal and other transition costs(3)		22		54	85 - 115
Total cash charges		29		93	130 - 160
Total Beverage Merchandising Restructuring charges	$	216	$	403	$ 455 - 490

(1)

We expect to incur these charges primarily during 2023. These estimates are provisional and include significant management judgments and assumptions that could change materially as we execute our plans. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and the execution of our plan could result in additional restructuring charges or impairments not reflected above.

(2)

Other non-cash charges include the write-down of certain spare parts classified as inventories on our condensed consolidated balance sheet, the write-off of scrapped raw materials and certain construction in-progress balances and accelerated amortization expense for certain operating lease right-of-use assets.

(3)

Exit, disposal and other transition costs are primarily related to equipment decommissioning and dismantlement, transition labor associated with the facility closures and management restructuring, site remediation, contract terminations, system conversion and other related costs.

~~During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $~~56 million related to our remaining closures businesses, which is reported within the Other operating segment. Accordingly, the carrying value of the remaining closures businesses was reduced to fair value, as presented in Note 2, ~~Acquisitions and Dispositions. The impairment arose as a result of our decision to sell the remaining closures businesses.~~

In the second quarter of 2023, in conjunction with the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, we implemented a new operating and reporting structure resulting in the combination of our legacy Food Merchandising and Beverage Merchandising segments, creating our Food and Beverage Merchandising segment. Refer to Note 3, Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges, for additional details. We also reorganized the management of certain product lines from our Foodservice segment to our Food and Beverage Merchandising segment. Refer to Note 18, Segment Information, for additional details. The change in the management of certain product lines resulted in a $35 million reclassification of goodwill between the segments based on the estimated relative fair value of the product lines compared to the estimated fair value of the Foodservice reporting unit. We have reflected these changes in our segments in the table above.

We were in compliance with all debt covenants during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~

~~On September 24, 2021, we incurred $1,015~~ ~~million of term loans (“U.S. term loans tranche B-3”) and issued $500~~ ~~million aggregate principal amount of~~ ~~4.375~~% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (“4.375% Notes”). A portion of the net proceeds from the U.S. term loans Tranche B-3, along with the net proceeds from the 4.375% Notes, was used to repay in full the $~~1,207~~ million of existing U.S. term loans Tranche B-1 maturing in February 2023, including accrued interest. The balance of the net proceeds from the U.S. term loans Tranche B-3 was used to partially fund the acquisition of Fabri-Kal. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repaid the remaining $59 ~~million of the~~ ~~5.125% senior secured notes at a price of~~ ~~101.281%. The early repayment of these senior secured notes resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $~~1 ~~million in respect of the premium on redemption, which was recognized in interest expense, net.~~2022.

The Revolving Tranche represents a $250 million facility. The amount utilized is in the form of letters of credit.

During the first quarter of 2023, we repaid $110 million of our U.S. term loans Tranche B-2. The repayment was first applied to the remaining U.S term loans Tranche B-2 quarterly amortization payments, thereby eliminating all remaining quarterly amortization payments for the U.S term loans Tranche B-2, with the residual balance applied to the outstanding principal balance due at maturity. During the second quarter of 2023, we repaid a further $180 million of our U.S. term loans Tranche B-2.

On April 17, 2023, we amended the Credit Agreement, replacing the LIBOR-based reference rate with a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) based reference rate, effective for interest payments for the period commencing April 28, 2023. Other than the foregoing, the material terms of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged, and our election to use certain practical expedients under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 848: Reference Rate Reform resulted in no material impacts on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

On July 26, 2023, we further amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date on our $250 million Revolving Tranche facility from August 5, 2024 to August 5, 2025. There were no other material changes to the terms of the Credit Agreement as a result of this amendment.

~~Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements~~

~~(In millions, except per share data and unless otherwise indicated)~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

Our derivatives are comprised of commodity and interest rate swaps. All derivatives represent Level 2 financial assets and liabilities. Our derivatives are valued using an income approach based on the observable market index prices less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount or based on pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as commodity ~~prices.~~prices and interest rates. Our calculation of the fair value of these financial instruments takes into consideration the risk of non-performance, including counterparty credit risk. The majority of our derivative contracts do not have a legal right of set-off. We manage the credit risk in connection with our derivatives by limiting the amount of exposure with each counterparty and monitoring the financial condition of our counterparties.

During the ~~three and nine months ended September 30,~~fourth quarter of 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ we ~~recognized unrealized losses~~entered into derivative financial instruments with several large financial institutions which swapped the LIBO rate for a weighted average fixed rate of 4.120% for an aggregate notional amount of $101,000 million to hedge a portion of the interest rate exposure resulting from our U.S. term loans. These instruments are classified as cash flow hedges and mature in October 2025. In April 2023, we amended our interest rate swap agreements to replace the interest rate benchmark from LIBOR to SOFR, effective for swap payments for the period commencing April 28, 2023. Other than the foregoing, the material terms of the interest rate swap agreements remain unchanged, including the weighted average fixed rate of 4.120%, and our election to use certain practical expedients under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 848: Reference Rate Reform resulted in no material impacts on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized an unrealized gain of $41 million, an unrealized loss of $1 million, an unrealized gain of $1 million and an unrealized gain of $56 million, respectively, in cost of ~~sales.~~sales, for our commodity swap contracts.

At June 30, 2023, we expected to reclassify $8 million of gains, net of tax, from AOCL to earnings over the next twelve months.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

We are from time to time party to litigation, legal proceedings and tax examinations arising from our operations. Most of these matters involve allegations of damages against us relating to employment matters, personal injury and commercial or contractual disputes. We are also involved in various administrative and other proceedings relating to environmental matters that arise in the normal course of business, and we may become involved in similar matters in the future. We record estimates for claims and proceedings that constitute a present obligation when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of such obligation can be made. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of any of these matters, ~~with certainty,~~ based on our assessment of the facts and circumstances, we do not believe any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows. However, actual outcomes may differ from those expected and could have a material effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows in a future period. Except for amounts provided, there were no legal proceedings pending other than those for which we have determined that the possibility of a material outflow is remote.

~~Legal Proceedings~~

On April 14, 2021, MP2 Energy LLC (“MP2”) filed a lawsuit against Pactiv LLC (“Pactiv”), one of our indirect subsidiaries, in state court in Montgomery County, Texas. In this lawsuit, MP2 sought to collect approximately $50 million from Pactiv that MP2 claimed that Pactiv owed MP2 under an energy management services agreement (“EMSA”). Pactiv disputed any liability to MP2 and maintained that Pactiv acted reasonably at all times and that the event of Force Majeure excused any obligation Pactiv had to supply the contract quantity under the EMSA and Transaction Confirmation No. 4 or to reimburse MP2 for its cost in contracting for any shortfall in the contract quantity.

On July 20, 2022, the parties entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which, among others, MP2 dismissed its claims with prejudice, Pactiv paid MP2 an insignificant cash payment and the parties entered into new commercial arrangements.

Indemnities

As part of the agreements for the sale of various businesses, we have provided certain warranties and indemnities to the respective purchasers as set out in the respective sale agreements. These warranties and indemnities are subject to various terms and conditions affecting the duration and total amount of the indemnities. Any claims pursuant to these warranties and indemnities, if successful, could have a material effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 14. Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 represent our estimate of the annual effective tax rates expected to be applicable for the respective full fiscal years, adjusted for any discrete events which are recorded in the period that they occur.

During the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2023, we recognized a tax benefit of $8 million on loss before tax of $147 million. The effective tax rate was driven primarily by the inability to recognize a tax benefit on all interest expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized a tax benefit of $27 million on loss before tax of $299 million. The effective tax rate was driven primarily by the inability to recognize a tax benefit on all interest expense.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a tax expense of $7945 million on income from continuing operations before tax of $~~254~~ ~~million. The effective tax rate is primarily due to the tax impacts from the sales of our businesses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized a tax expense of $160~~ ~~million on income from continuing operations before tax of $452~~ ~~million. The effective tax rate is primarily due to the inability to recognize a tax benefit on all interest expense and the tax impacts from the sales of our businesses.~~

~~During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized a tax benefit of $~~13 ~~million on a loss from continuing operations before tax of $~~11119 million. The effective tax rate was driven primarily by the mix of income taxed at varying rates among the jurisdictions in which we operate and an inability to recognize a $9 ~~million discrete~~tax benefit ~~from the partial release of our valuation allowance for deferred~~on all interest ~~deductions that was attributable to the remeasurement of the PEPP as a result of the partial settlement transaction.~~expense.

We are under audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other taxing authorities. The IRS is currently auditing our U.S. income tax returns for 2016-2017. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we have not received any proposed adjustments from taxing authorities that would be material. Although the ultimate timing is uncertain, it is reasonably possible that a reduction of up to $109 million of unrecognized tax benefits could occur within the next twelve months due to changes in audit status, settlements of tax assessments and other events.

The price adjustments resulted in $22 million of incremental net revenues and $9 million of incremental costs of goods sold recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The RSUs and any related dividend-equivalent rights are forfeited in the event the holder is no longer an employee on the vesting date, unless the holder satisfies certain retirement-eligibility criteria.

Unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 was $1116 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of ~~2.2~~2.1 years. The total vest date fair value of shares that vested during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 was $56 million.

Performance Share Units

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we granted performance share units (“PSUs”) to certain members of management which vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. Based on the achievement of a company performance target during a performance period set by our Compensation Committee, upon vesting, the PSUs are exchanged for a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of PSUs multiplied by a factor between 0% and 200%. We use our stock price on the grant date to estimate the fair value of our PSUs. We adjust the expense based on the likelihood of future achievement of performance metrics. If any of the performance targets are not achieved, the awards are forfeited. During the vesting period, the PSUs carry dividend-equivalent rights, but the PSUs do not have voting rights. The PSUs and any related dividend-equivalent rights are forfeited in the event the holder is no longer an employee on the vesting date, unless the holder satisfies certain retirement-eligibility criteria. The following table summarizes PSU activity during ~~2022:~~2023:

Refer to Note 3, Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges, for additional details. We also reorganized the management of certain product lines from our Foodservice segment to our Food and Beverage Merchandising segment.

As of the end of the second quarter of 2023, we analyze the results of our business through our Foodservice and Food and Beverage Merchandising segments. All prior periods have been recast to reflect the current reportable segment structure and the change in the management of certain product lines. These reportable segments reflect our operating structure and the manner in which our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), who is our President and Chief Executive Officer, assesses information for decision-making purposes.

The key factors used to identify these reportable segments are the organization of our internal operations and the nature of our products. This reflects how our CODM monitors performance, allocates capital and makes strategic and operational decisions. Our reportable segments are described as follows:

Foodservice - Manufactures a broad range of products that enable consumers to eat and drink where they want and when they want with convenience. Foodservice manufactures food containers, drinkware (hot and cold cups and lids), tableware, serviceware and other products which make eating on-the-go more enjoyable and easy to do.

23Food and Beverage Merchandising - Manufactures products that protect and attractively display food and beverages while preserving freshness. Food and Beverage Merchandising products include cartons for fresh refrigerated beverage products, primarily serving dairy (including plant-based, organic and specialties), juice and other specialty beverage end-markets, clear rigid-display containers, containers for prepared and ready-to-eat food, trays for meat and poultry and egg cartons. It also produces fiber-based liquid packaging board for its

~~Beverage Merchandising~~ - Manufactures cartons for fresh refrigerated beverage products, primarily serving dairy (including plant-based, organic and specialties), juice and other specialty beverage end-markets. Beverage Merchandising manufactures and supplies integrated fresh carton systems, which include printed cartons, spouts and filling machinery.

Information by Segment

We present reportable segment Adjusted EBITDA as this is the financial measure by which management ~~allocates~~and our CODM allocate resources and ~~analyzes~~analyze the performance of our reportable segments.

A segment’s Adjusted EBITDA represents its earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization and is further adjusted to exclude certain items, including but not limited to, restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges, gains or losses on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, operational process engineering-related consultancy costs, business acquisition and integration costs and purchase accounting adjustments, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange gains or losses on cash ~~executive transition charges~~ and gains or losses on certain legal settlements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Our discussion and analysis is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition and is provided as an addition to, and should be read in connection with, our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our Company

We are a leading manufacturer and distributor of fresh foodservice and food merchandising products and fresh beverage cartons in North America. We produce a broad range of on-trend and feature-rich products that protect, package and display food and beverages for today’s consumers. Our products include containers, drinkware (such as hot and cold cups and lids), cartons for fresh refrigerated beverage products, tableware, meat and poultry trays, ~~paper products,~~ liquid packaging board, serviceware, prepared food trays and egg cartons. Our products, many of which are made with recycled, recyclable or renewable materials, are sold to a diversified mix of customers, including restaurants, foodservice distributors, retailers, food and beverage producers, packers and processors. ~~We report~~

Change in Segments

In the second quarter of 2023, in conjunction with the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, we implemented a new operating and reporting structure resulting in the combination of our ~~business in three reportable segments: Foodservice,~~legacy Food Merchandising and Beverage ~~Merchandising.~~ Merchandising segments, creating our Food and Beverage Merchandising segment. We also reorganized the management of certain product lines from our Foodservice segment to our Food and Beverage Merchandising segment.

We provided certain unaudited recast financial information for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the four quarters of the year ended December 31, 2022 and the three months ended March 31, 2023 in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 2, 2023.

Refer to Note 3, Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges, and Note 18, Segment Information, for additional details.

Business Environment

During ~~2022,~~the first half of 2023, we experienced ~~meaningful input cost inflation, including higher raw material and labor costs. Our pricing strategy across all~~a continued moderation in consumer demand for certain of our ~~segments, including contractual pass-through mechanisms~~products, primarily driven by sustained high levels of inflation and ~~other pricing actions, has mitigated certain of~~general macroeconomic uncertainty. While we have not seen a material economic contraction to-date, these ~~inflationary pressures. These~~ pressures may ~~also~~continue to impact consumer demand and thus our customers’ purchasing decisions and order patterns throughout the remainder of ~~2022~~2023.

Our input costs have largely stabilized and ~~into 2023,~~have begun to moderate in certain circumstances as ~~well as consumer mobility~~compared to recent periods. Our pricing strategy continues to provide us with flexibility to effectively manage our margins through cost recovery mechanisms and ~~discretionary spending. Additionally, while labor availability has improved during the year, a tight labor market has continued to challenge~~strategic competitive pricing. In this dynamic environment, we remain focused on servicing our ~~business~~customers and ~~our operations. Despite these headwinds, we have seen strong customer retention while renewing our focus on~~improving manufacturing productivity across ~~all of~~ our ~~segments.~~business.

~~While strong demand for labor domestically continues~~During the second quarter of 2023, we ceased operations at our Canton, North Carolina mill and our converting facility in Olmsted Falls, Ohio, and production from the Olmsted Falls facility was reallocated to ~~support consumer spending~~other sites. We expect these actions will allow us to solidify our leadership position in ~~the face of inflationary pressures, rising~~large, growing end markets while prioritizing our distinctive core strengths.

Elevated interest rates and the resulting volatility within the capital markets over the last year have created ~~additional~~ uncertainty with respect to the economic outlook. If economic conditions were to deteriorate, a further decline in consumer spending may result, which could lead to a meaningful decline in demand for our products ~~into~~in the remainder of 2023 and beyond.

Recent Developments and Items Impacting Comparability

~~Pension Partial Settlement Transactions~~Beverage Merchandising Restructuring

On ~~September 20, 2022, February 24, 2022,~~March 6, 2023, we announced the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, a plan approved by our Board of Directors to take significant restructuring actions related to our Beverage Merchandising operations. We expect these actions to increase our production efficiency, streamline our management structure and ~~July 21, 2021, using PEPP assets, we purchased non-participating group annuity contracts from insurance companies~~reduce our ongoing capital expenditures and transferred portions of the PEPP’s projected benefit obligations. In each instance, the respective insurance companies have assumed responsibility for pension benefits and annuity administration. The following table provides details regarding each transaction:

~~Fabri-Kal Acquisition~~overhead costs.

On October 1, 2021, we acquired 100% of the outstanding ownership interests of Fabri-Kal for a purchase price of $378 million, including final adjustments for cash, indebtedness and working capital of $2 million paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Fabri-Kal is a U.S. manufacturer of thermoformed plastic packaging products. Its products include portion cups, lids, clamshells, drink cups and yogurt containers for the institutional foodservice and consumer packaged goods markets. The acquisition includes four manufacturing facilities in the U.S. The acquisition broadened our portfolio of sustainable packaging products and expanded our manufacturing capacity to better serve our customers. The acquisition was funded with our existing cash resources and a portion of the U.S. term loans Tranche B-3 incurred in September 2021.

2726

We expect that the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring will enable us to maintain our strong position in the liquid packaging market by increasing our overall productivity over time and optimizing our manufacturing footprint. It also resulted in our exit from the uncoated freesheet paper market.

We also continue to explore strategic alternatives for our Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill and our Waynesville, North Carolina facility. We have not set a timetable in relation to this process.

The operations impacted by the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring did not qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.

Refer to Note 3, Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges, for additional details.

Dispositions ~~and Exit Activities~~

Over recent periods, we made strategic decisions to focus on our core, business-to-business North American foodservice, food merchandising and beverage merchandising operations. Accordingly, we divested or exited certain of our non-core businesses which enables us to focus on our strategic core competencies.

On January 4, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement with SIG Schweizerische Industrie-Gesellschaft GmbH to sell Beverage Merchandising Asia. The transaction closed on August 2, 2022, and we received ~~preliminary~~ proceeds of $336 million, which are subject to adjustments for cash, indebtedness and working capital as of the date of completion. We recognized a preliminary gain on sale of $239 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022. Sales of liquid packaging board to our former Beverage Merchandising Asia operations, which were previously eliminated in consolidation, are recorded as external net revenues subsequent to the transaction’s completion.million.

On ~~October 12, 2021,~~March 29, 2022, we ~~entered into a definitive agreement for~~completed the sale of our equity interests in Naturepak Beverage, our 50% joint venture with Naturepak Limited, to affiliates of Elopak ASA. ~~The transaction closed on March 29, 2022, and we~~We received ~~preliminary~~ proceeds of $47 million ~~which are subject to adjustments for cash, indebtedness~~ and ~~working capital as of the date of completion. We~~ recognized a ~~preliminary~~ gain on the sale of our equity interests of $27 million during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2022.

On July 28, 2021, we announced the decision to close our coated groundwood paper production line located in our Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill. On October 31, 2021, we ceased manufacturing coated groundwood paper, and we substantially completed our exit from this business during the fourth quarter of 2021. As a result of the closure, we recognized $1 million for disassembly costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $8 million for contractual termination benefits during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

None of these dispositions qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.

~~Winter Storm Uri and Tropical Storm Fred~~Pension Partial Settlement Transactions

InOn September 20, 2022 and February ~~2021, the Southern~~24, 2022, using PPPE assets, we purchased non-participating group annuity contracts from insurance companies and transferred a portion of the ~~U.S. was impacted by Winter Storm Uri which brought record low temperatures, snow~~PPPE’s projected benefit obligations. In each instance, the respective insurance companies have assumed responsibility for pension benefits and ice and resulted in power failures, hazardous road conditions, damage to property and death and injury to individuals in those states. During most of this weather event, we were unable to fully operate some of our mills, plants and warehousesin Texas and Arkansas. During the first half of 2021, we incurred approximately $50 million of incremental costs including energy costs, primarily related to natural gas, shut-down costs and some property damage during the storm. Our Beverage Merchandising segment was impacted to the greatest degree with total incremental costs of $37 million incurred by our paper mill in Pine Bluff, Arkansas.annuity administration. The following table provides details regarding each transaction:

As a result of the storm, certain of our suppliers with locations in the impacted areas were also unable to operate which subsequently resulted in their declaration of force majeure on meeting the supply quantities due to us. In particular, our supply of various resin types was limited, and we were required to purchase from other suppliers, and at a higher price, in order to meet our production demands for March and April of 2021. As further discussed in our ~~Results of Operations, our cost of sales was adversely impacted for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as the products manufactured with this higher priced material were sold.~~

In August 2021, the Southeastern portion of the U.S. was impacted by Tropical Storm Fred which brought severe flooding. As a result of the storm, our paper mill in Canton, North Carolina experienced a flood which resulted in the damage of certain property, plant and equipment. The mill subsequently experienced an explosion and resulting fire. Due to the extent of damage sustained from the flood, fire and related events, we were unable to fully operate our paper mill in Canton, North Carolina for several days during the third quarter of 2021. Accordingly, our Beverage Merchandising segment incurred $7 million of incremental costs, including costs related to the shut-down of the mill and to repair damaged property, plant and equipment, during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

~~COVID-19~~

We have been actively responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact. During the early part of 2021, we experienced lower demand for our products and, as a result, a decline in revenues. Commencing in the second quarter of 2021 and continuing throughout 2021, volumes improved in our business, most significantly in our Foodservice segment. To date, we have not experienced significant issues across our supply chain due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the sourcing of materials and

logistics service providers. As the general effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to change and remain unpredictable, the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to impact our results of operations in future periods as the macroeconomic environment and consumer behavior continue to evolve.

In addition to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ to evaluate and manage our business and to plan and make near-term and long-term operating and strategic decisions.

Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ is defined as net ~~income~~ (loss) ~~from continuing operations~~income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude certain items, including but not limited to restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges, gains or losses on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, operational process engineering-related consultancy costs, business acquisition and integration costs and purchase accounting adjustments, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange gains or losses on cash ~~executive transition charges~~ and gains or losses on certain legal settlements.

We present Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions and incentivize and reward our employees. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and Board of Directors. We also believe that using Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis because it excludes variations primarily caused by changes in the items noted above. In addition, our chief operating decision maker, who is our President and Chief Executive Officer, uses Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate the operating performance of such segments.

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Instead, you should consider it alongside other financial performance

measures, including our net (loss) income ~~(loss)~~ and other GAAP results. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, ~~from continuing operations,~~ you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses such as those that are the subject of adjustments made in deriving Adjusted EBITDA, ~~from continuing operations,~~ and you should not infer from our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ that our future results will not be affected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items. The following is a reconciliation of our net ~~income~~ (loss) ~~from continuing operations,~~income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA ~~from continuing operations~~ for each of the periods indicated:

Net Revenues. Net revenues for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022 increased~~2023 decreased by ~~$215~~$214 million, or ~~15%~~13%, to ~~$1,609~~$1,426 million compared to the prior year period. The ~~increase~~decrease was primarily due to favorable pricing, due to the contractual pass-through of higher material costs and pricing actions across all of our segments. In addition, the Foodservice segment’s acquisition of Fabri-Kal on October 1, 2021 contributed $114 million of incremental sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. These increases were partially offset by lower sales volume, ~~primarily due to strong sales volume in~~ the ~~prior year period as businesses~~closure of our Canton, North Carolina mill operations during the second quarter of 2023 and restaurants re-opened post-COVID-19 lockdowns in our Foodservice segment, the market softening amid inflationary pressures in our Food Merchandising segment and our strategic exit from the coated groundwood business in our Beverage Merchandising segment in December 2021, and the impact from the disposition of Beverage Merchandising Asia on August 2, 2022. Lower sales volume was largely due to a focus on value over volume and the market softening amid inflationary pressures.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 increased by ~~$86~~$10 million, or 7%1%, to ~~$1,377~~$1,342 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to $182 million of charges related to the ~~Foodservice segment’s acquisition~~Beverage Merchandising Restructuring as well as higher manufacturing costs. Refer to Note 3, Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges, for additional details of ~~Fabri-Kal and higher material and manufacturing costs across all of our segments.~~the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring.

Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges. Restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022 included a $56~~2023 comprised $32 million ~~impairment charge~~of charges, substantially all of which related to the ~~decision to exit our remaining closures businesses.~~Beverage Merchandising Restructuring. Refer to Note 3, Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges, for additional details.

Other Income, Net. Other income, net for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2022 decreased by $8 million to $4 million compared to the prior period. The decrease was due to a gain of $15 million, net of costs, related to the settlement of a historical legal action included in the prior period.

Non-operating Expense, Net. Non-operating expense, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by ~~$232~~$1 million to ~~$239~~$3 million compared to the prior year period. ~~The increase was primarily attributable to the $239 million preliminary gain on the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia, which was completed during the three months ended September 30, 2022.~~

~~Non-operating Income, Net.~~ Non-operating income, net, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $4 million, or 10%, to $44 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to a $47 million pension settlement gain recognized in the current year period compared to a $22 million pension settlement gain recognized in the prior year period, partially offset by lower ongoing net periodic benefit income. Refer to Note 10, Employee Benefits, for additional details.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net, for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 increased by $2$14 million, or 4%28%, to ~~$59~~$64 million, compared to the prior year period. The increase was ~~primarily~~mostly due to an increase in the interest rate on our floating rate term loans and an increase in principal amounts outstanding under our senior secured notes. These increases were partially offset by $14 million of fees and third party costs incurred in the prior year period that did not recur.loans. Refer to Note 8, Debt, for additional details.

Income Tax ~~Expense.~~Benefit (Expense). During the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we recognized a tax ~~expense~~benefit of ~~$79~~$8 million on ~~income from continuing operations~~a loss before tax of ~~$254~~$147 million, compared to tax ~~benefit~~expense of ~~$13~~$45 million on ~~a loss from continuing operations~~income before tax of ~~$11~~$119 million for the prior year period.

~~Total Segment Net Revenues~~. Beverage Merchandising total segment net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $19 million, or 5%, to $422 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing, due to pricing actions taken to offset higher input costs and the contractual pass-through of higher material costs. The increase was partially offset by the impact from the disposition of Beverage Merchandising Asia ~~on August 2, 2022 and lower sales volume, primarily due to our strategic exit from the coated groundwood business in December 2021.~~

~~Adjusted EBITDA~~. Beverage Merchandising Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $10 million, or 63%, to $26 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through, and the benefit related to prior year period costs of $7 million from Tropical Storm Fred. These items were partially offset by higher manufacturing costs, including $8 million due to a scheduled cold mill outage, and higher employee-related costs.

~~Net Revenues.~~ Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $834 million, or 21%, to $4,744 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing, due to the contractual pass-through of higher material costs and pricing actions across allclosure of our segments. In addition, the Foodservice segment’s acquisition of Fabri-Kal on October 1, 2021 contributed $337 million of incremental sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. These increases were partially offset by lower sales volume, primarily due to strong sales volume in the prior year period as businesses and restaurants re-opened post-COVID-19 lockdowns in our Foodservice segment, labor and related impacts in our Food Merchandising segment and our strategic exit from the coated groundwood business in our Beverage Merchandising segment in December 2021.

~~Adjusted EBITDA~~32

. Beverage Merchandising Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $80 million to $79 million compared to the prior year period. The increase reflected favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through, and the benefit related to prior year period costs of $37 million from Winter Storm Uri and $7 million from Tropical Storm Fred. These items were partially offset by higher manufacturing and employee-related costs and lower sales volume.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We manage our capital structure in an effort to most effectively execute our strategic priorities and maximize shareholder value. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to support our ongoing operations and to re-invest in our business to drive future growth. Our projected operating cash flows, cash on-hand and available capacity under our revolving credit facility are our primary sources of liquidity for the next 12 months. We expect our liquidity to fund capital expenditures, payments of interest and principal on our debt, cash-based restructuring charges and distributions to shareholders that require approval by our Board of Directors. Additionally, we may utilize portions of our excess cash to repurchase certain amounts of our long-term debt prior to maturity depending on market conditions, among other factors.

Cash flows

Our cash flows for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 were as follows:

Net cash flows ~~increased $193~~were an outflow of $231 million ~~or 121%,~~in the current year period compared to an inflow of $41 million in the prior year period primarily due to $290 million of early debt repayments during 2023 and proceeds ~~from~~received for the ~~disposition~~sale of ~~Beverage Merchandising Asia and our equity interests in~~ Naturepak Beverage ~~and~~during the prior year, partially offset by higher net cash provided by operating activities. ~~These items were partially offset by net cash provided by various debt financing transactions undertaken during the prior year period.~~ Net cash provided by operating activities increased ~~as compared to the prior year period~~ primarily due to ~~favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through,~~ the ~~impact from the acquisition of Fabri-Kal and prior year period costs from Winter Storm Uri, partially offset by a~~ strategic inventory build during the ~~current~~prior year ~~period~~that did not recur, partially offset by higher incentive compensation payments, cash payments made related to the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring and higher cash ~~tax and~~ interest payments.

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, our primary ~~sources~~source of cash ~~were $364 million in combined proceeds related to the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia and our equity interests in Naturepak Beverage, and $241~~was $215 million of net cash provided by operating activities. The net cash provided by operating activities reflects income from operations, partially offset by ~~$132~~$135 million of cash interest payments and ~~$64~~$31 million of cash taxes.

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, our primary sources of cash were ~~$1,015 million of proceeds from debt issued under the U.S. term loans Tranche B-3, $500 million of proceeds from the issuance of our 4.375% Notes and $190~~$166 million of net cash provided by operating ~~activities.~~activities and $47 million of proceeds from the sale of Naturepak Beverage. The net cash provided by operating activities reflects income from operations, ~~and a net tax refund of $25 million,~~ partially offset by ~~$99~~$98 million of cash interest ~~payments.~~payments and $35 million of cash taxes. Our primary uses of cash for the same period were ~~the repayment of $1,207~~$114 million of ~~U.S. term loans Tranche B-1, $199 million in~~ capital expenditures ~~repayment of the remaining $59 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.125% senior secured notes at a price of 101.281%~~ and ~~$53~~$36 million of dividends paid.

Dividends

WeDuring each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid cash dividends of ~~$54 million and $53 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.~~$18 million. On ~~November 3, 2022,~~August 1, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.10 per share to be paid on ~~December~~September 15, ~~2022~~2023 to shareholders of record as of ~~November 30, 2022.~~August 31, 2023.

Our Credit Agreement and Notes limit the ability to make dividend payments, subject to specified exceptions. Our Board of Directors must review and approve future dividend payments and will determine whether to declare additional dividends based on our operating performance, expected future cash flows, debt levels, liquidity needs and investment opportunities.

Financing and capital resources

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we had ~~$4,258~~$3,862 million of total principal amount of borrowings. Refer to Note 8, Debt, for additional details. As of September 30, 2022, the underlying one month LIBO rate for amounts borrowed under our Credit Agreement was 3.12%. Based on this rate, our 2022 annual cash interest obligations on our borrowings are expected to be approximately $215 million. Of our total debt, ~~$2,233~~$1,933 million is subject to variable interest rates, representing borrowings drawn under our Credit Agreement. ~~Based on our outstanding debt commitments as~~

On April 17, 2023, we amended the Credit Agreement, replacing the LIBOR-based reference rate with a SOFR-based reference rate, effective for interest payments for the period commencing April 28, 2023. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2022 and all other variables remaining constant, a 100 basis point increase (decrease) in interest rates would result in a $22 million per annum increase (decrease) in interest expense on~~2023, the ~~term loans~~underlying one-month SOFR for amounts borrowed under our Credit ~~Agreement.~~Agreement was 5.22%.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repaid an aggregate of $290 million of our U.S. term loans Tranche B-2.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, we entered into derivative financial instruments with large institutions that fixed the LIBO rate at a weighted average rate of 4.12% for an aggregate notional amount of $1,000 million to hedge a portion of the interest rate exposure resulting from our U.S. term loans and classified the instruments as cash flow hedges. Our cash flow hedge contracts mature in October 2025. During the second quarter of 2023, we amended our interest rate swap agreements, replacing the LIBOR-based reference rate with a SOFR-based reference rate, effective for swap payments for the period commencing April 28, 2023. The weighted average fixed rate of 4.12% for our interest rate swap agreements was unchanged as a result of these amendments.

Based on the one-month SOFR as of June 30, 2023, and including the impact of our interest rate swap agreements, our 2023 annual cash interest obligations on our borrowings are expected to be approximately $260 million.

Under the Credit Agreement, we may incur additional indebtedness either by satisfying certain incurrence tests or by incurring such additional indebtedness under certain specific categories of permitted debt. Incremental senior secured indebtedness under the Credit Agreement and senior secured or unsecured notes in lieu thereof are permitted to be incurred up to an aggregate principal amount of $750 million subject to pro forma compliance with the Credit Agreement’s total secured leverage ratio covenant. In addition, we may incur senior secured indebtedness in an unlimited amount as long as our total secured leverage ratio does not exceed 4.50 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis, and (in the case of incremental senior secured indebtedness under the Credit Agreement only) we are in pro forma compliance with the Credit Agreement’s total secured leverage ratio covenant. The incurrence of unsecured indebtedness, including the issuance of senior notes, and unsecured subordinated indebtedness is also permitted (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement) if the fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 2.00 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis.

Under the respective indentures governing the Notes, we may incur additional indebtedness either by satisfying certain incurrence tests or by incurring such additional indebtedness under certain specific categories of permitted debt. Indebtedness may be incurred under the incurrence tests if the fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 2.00 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis or the consolidated total leverage ratio is no greater than 5.50 to 1.00 and the liens securing first lien secured indebtedness do not exceed a 4.10 to 1.00 consolidated secured first lien leverage ratio.

We are required to make annual prepayments of term loans with up to 50% of excess cash flow (which will be reduced to 25% or 0% if specified senior secured first lien leverage ratios are met) as determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement. No excess cash flow prepayments were ~~made in 2021 or will be~~ due ~~in 2022~~ for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

We currently anticipate incurring a total of approximately ~~$260~~$280 million in capital expenditures and approximately $120 million of cash restructuring charges during ~~fiscal year 2022.~~2023.

During ~~2022,~~the six months ended June 30, 2023, our working capital ~~increased $343~~decreased $301 million, or ~~33%~~23%, primarily due to our use of cash ~~proceeds~~for $290 million of early debt repayments, capital expenditures, reductions of our inventory levels and dividend payments, which were partially offset by income from ~~our recent divestitures and our strategic inventory build during the year.~~operations. Our working capital position provides us the flexibility for further consideration of strategic initiatives, including reinvestment in our business and deleveraging of our balance sheet. As a result, we may utilize portions of our excess cash to repurchase certain amounts of our long-term debt prior to maturity depending on market conditions, among other factors.

Our ability to borrow under our revolving credit facility or to incur additional indebtedness may be limited by the terms of such indebtedness or other indebtedness, including the Credit Agreement and the Notes. The Credit Agreement and the respective indentures governing the Notes generally allow our subsidiaries to transfer funds in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances within the Company.

Other than short-term leases executed in the normal course of business, we have no material off-balance sheet obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions

The most critical accounting policies and estimates are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require us to make the most difficult and subjective judgments, often estimating the outcome of future events that are inherently uncertain. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Our critical accounting estimates are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

New accounting standards that we have recently adopted, as well as accounting standards that have been recently issued but not yet adopted by us, is included in Note 1, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation.

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
