All intercompany transactions are eliminated. The noncontrolling interest represents the noncontrolling investors' interests in the results of subsidiaries that we control and consolidate. We account for investments over which we exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. Investments over which we do not have significant influence or control are not material and as there are no readily determinable fair values for the equity interests, these investments are carried at cost with changes in the investment recognized to the extent cash is received.

War in Ukraine
In February 2022, Russia began a military invasion of Ukraine and we closed our operations and facilities in Ukraine. In March 2022, our 2 Ukrainian manufacturing facilities in Trostyanets and Vyshhorod were significantly damaged. During the first quarter of 2022, we evaluated and impaired these and other assets. We recorded $143 million of total expenses ($145 million after-tax) incurred as a direct result of the war, including $75 million recorded in asset impairment and exit costs, $44 million in cost of sales and $24 million in selling, general and administrative expenses. We recorded $75 million of property, plant and equipment impairments, $33 million of estimated inventory reserves and write-offs, $19 million of increased estimated allowances for trade receivables and $16 million in accrued expenses. We continue to consolidate both our Ukrainian and Russian subsidiaries and continue to evaluate our ability to control our operating activities and businesses on an ongoing basis. In connection with these findings and impacts, we have made estimates and assumptions based on information available to us. We base our estimates on historical experience, expectations of future impacts and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable. Given the uncertainty of the ongoing effects of the war in Ukraine, and its impact on the global economic environment, our estimates could be significantly different than future performance.

Currency Translation and Highly Inflationary Accounting:
We translate the results of operations of our subsidiaries from multiple currencies using average exchange rates during each period and translate balance sheet accounts using exchange rates at the end of each period. We record currency translation adjustments as a component of equity (except for highly inflationary currencies) and realized exchange gains and losses on currency transactions in earnings.

Highly inflationary accounting is triggered when a country’s three-year cumulative inflation rate exceeds 100%. It requires the remeasurement of financial statements of subsidiaries in the country from the functional currency of the subsidiary to our U.S. dollar reporting currency. Local currency monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of the latest balance sheet date, with currency remeasurement gains orand losses recordedrecognized in net earnings.

Türkiye. During the first quarter of 2022, primarily based on data published by the Türkiye Statistical Institute that indicated that Türkiye's three-year cumulative inflation rate exceeded 100%, we concluded that Türkiye became a highly inflationary economy for accounting purposes. As discussed below, beginning on Julyof April 1, 2018,2022, we beganexpect to apply highly inflationary accounting for our subsidiaries operating in Türkiye and change their functional currency from the Turkish lira to the U.S. dollar. Our operations in Argentina.Türkiye contributed $43 million, or 0.6% of our condensed consolidated net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Based on a review of our Turkish lira-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, our operations in Türkiye had an immaterial net monetary liability position as of March 31, 2022.

Argentina. During the second quarter of 2018, primarily based on published estimates that indicated that Argentina's three-year cumulative inflation rate exceeded 100%, we concluded that Argentina became a highly inflationary economy for accounting purposes. As of July 1, 2018, we began to apply highly inflationary accounting for our Argentinean subsidiaries and changed their functional currency from the Argentinean peso to the U.S. dollar. On July 1, 2018, both monetary and non-monetary assets and liabilities denominatedOur operations in Argentinean pesos were remeasured into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, with remeasurement and other transaction gains and losses recorded in net earnings. As of March 31, 2021, our Argentinean operations had $5 million of Argentinean peso denominated net monetary assets. Our Argentinean operationsArgentina contributed $89$129 million, or 1.2%1.7% of our condensed consolidated net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2021.2022. As of March 31, 2022, our Argentinean operations had $26 million of Argentinean peso denominated net monetary assets. Within selling, general and administrative expenses, we recorded a remeasurement loss of $5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 as well as a remeasurement loss of $2 million during the three months ended March 31, 20202022 related to the revaluation of the Argentinean peso denominated net monetary position over these periods.

Brexit. Following the separation of the United Kingdom from the European Union ("Brexit") in 2020, a new trade arrangement was reached between the U.K. and E.U. that began on January 1, 2021. The main trade provisions include the continuation of no tariffs or quotas on trade between the U.K. and E.U. subject to prescribed trade terms. We also need to meet product and labeling standards for both the U.K. and E.U. Cross-border trade between the U.K. and E.U. is now subject to new customs regulations, documentation and reviews. To comply with the new requirements, we increased resources in customer service and logistics, in our factories, and on our customs support teams. We adapted our processes and systems for the new and increased number of customs transactions. We continue to closely monitor and manage our inventory levels of imported raw materials, packaging and finished goods in the U.K. If the U.K.’s separation from, or new trade arrangements with, the E.U. negatively impact the U.K. economy or result in disagreements on trade terms, delays affecting our supply chain or distribution, or disruptions

to sales or collections, the impact to our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be material. In the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated 9.9% of our consolidated net revenues in the U.K.

Other Countries. Since we sell our products in over 150 countries and have operations in approximately 80 countries, we monitor economic and currency-related risks and seek to take protective measures in response to potential exposures. We continue to monitor the developments in Ukraine and Russia as well as in the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic and related impacts to our business operations, currencies and net monetary exposures. Since the global onset of COVID-19 in early 2020, most countries in which we do business experienced periods of significant economic uncertainty as well as exchange rate volatility. At this time, except forwithin our consolidated entities, Argentina which isand Türkiyeare or will be accounted for as a highly inflationary economy,economies as noted above, and we do not anticipate any other countries in which we operatecontinue to be at risk of becomingmonitor currency volatility and associated risks, including highly inflationary countries.economies.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash:
Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits with banks and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. We also have restricted cash that is recorded within other current assets of $31$7 million as of March 31, 20212022 and $31$7 million as of December 31, 2020.2021. Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was $2,059$1,953 million as of March 31, 20212022 and $3,650$3,553 million as of December 31, 2020.2021.

Allowances for Credit Losses:
The allowances for credit losses are recorded against our receivables. They are developed at a country and region level based on historical collection experiences, current economic condition of specific customers and the forecasted economic condition of countries using various factors such as bond default rates and consumption indexes. We write off receivables once it is determined that the receivables are no longer collectible and as allowed by local laws.

Transfers of Financial Assets:
We account for transfers of financial assets, such as uncommitted revolving non-recourse accounts receivable factoring arrangements, when we have surrendered control over the related assets. Determining whether control has transferred requires an evaluation of relevant legal considerations, an assessment of the nature and extent of our continuing involvement with the assets transferred and any other relevant considerations. We use receivable factoring arrangements periodically when circumstances are favorable to manage liquidity. We have non-recourse factoring arrangements in which we sell eligible trade receivables primarily to banks in exchange for cash. We may then continue to collect the receivables sold, acting solely as a collecting agent on behalf of the banks. The outstanding principal amount of receivables under these arrangements amounted to $905$887 million as of March 31, 20212022 and $760$761 million as of December 31, 2020.2021. The incremental cost of factoring receivables under this arrangement was not material for all periods presented. The proceeds from the sales of receivables are included in cash from operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Note 2. Acquisitions and Divestitures

On April 24, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Grupo Bimbo to acquire Ricolino, its confectionery business located primarily in Mexico for a purchase price of approximately $1.3 billion, subject to closing purchase price adjustments. The transaction, which will be funded through a combination of an issuance of debt and cash on hand, is subject to relevant antitrust approvals and closing conditions and is expected to close in late Q3 or early Q4 2022.

On January 3, 2022, we acquired Chipita S.A. (“Chipita”), a leading croissants and baked snacks company in the Central and Eastern European markets. The acquisition of Chipita offers a strategic complement to our existing portfolio and advances our strategy to become the global leader in broader snacking. The cash consideration paid for Chipita totaled €1.3 billion ($1.4 billion), net of cash received, plus the assumption of Chipita’s debt of €0.4 billion ($0.4 billion) for a total purchase price of €1.7 billion ($1.9 billion).

Within identifiable intangible assets, we allocated $686 million to trade names which have an indefinite-life. The fair value for the 7 Days trade name, which is the primary asset acquired, was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach at the acquisition date. The fair value measurements of intangible assets are based on significant unobservable inputs, and thus represent Level 3 inputs. Significant assumptions used in assessing the fair values of intangible assets include forecasted future cash flows and discount rates.

Goodwill was determined as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired and arises principally as a result of expansion opportunities and synergies across both new and legacy product categories. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. All of the goodwill was assigned to the Europe segment.

Chipita added incremental net revenues of $152 million and operating income of $4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022. We incurred acquisition-related costs of $21 million and integration costs of $35 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

On November 1, 2021, we completed the sale of MaxFoods Pty Ltd, an Australian packaged seafood business that we had acquired as part of our acquisition of Gourmet Food Holdings Pty Ltd (“Gourmet Food”). The sales price was $57 million Australian dollars ($41 million), net of cash divested with the business, and we recorded an immaterial loss on the transaction.

On April 1, 2021, we acquired Gourmet Food, Holdings Pty Ltd, a leading Australian food company in the premium biscuit and cracker category, for closing cash consideration of approximately $458$450 million Australian dollars ($348343 million)., net of cash received. We have recorded a purchase price allocation of net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of $41 million to indefinite-lived intangible assets, $80 million to definite-lived intangible assets, $164 million to goodwill, $19 million to property, plant and equipment, $18 million to inventory, $25 million to accounts receivable, $12 million to other assets, $5 million to operating right of use assets, $3 million to other current assets, $19 million to current liabilities and $5 million to long-term operating lease liabilities. The acquisition added incremental net revenues of $14 million, and operating income of $1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022. We incurred acquisition-related costs of $1 million duringin the three months ended March 31, 2021.

On March 25, 2021, we acquired a majority interest in Lion/Gemstone Topco Ltd ("Grenade"), a performance nutrition leader in the United Kingdom, for closing cash consideration of £188 million ($260261 million), net of cash received. The acquisition of Grenade expands our position into the premium nutrition market.segment.

Through the one-year anniversary of the acquisition, Grenade added incremental net revenues of $21 million, and operating income of $2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022. We incurred acquisition-related costs of $2 million duringin the three months ended March 31, 2021.

On January 4, 2021, we acquired the remaining 93% of equity of Hu Master Holdings ("Hu"), a category leader in premium chocolate in the United States, which provides a strategic complement to our snacking portfolio in North America through growth opportunities in chocolate and other categories in the well-being category. The initial cash consideration paid was $229 million, net of cash received, and the Company may be required to pay additional cashcontingent consideration. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration obligation at the acquisition date was $132 million and was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation based on forecasted future results. We are unable to provide a range of amounts that could be paid as contingent consideration as it is based primarily on revenue and gross margin of the business for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and there is not a minimum or maximum payout. As a result of acquiring the remaining equity interest, we consolidated the operations prospectively from the date of acquisition and recorded a pre-tax gain of $9 million ($7 million after-tax) related to stepping up our previously-held $8 million (7%) investment to fair value. We are working to complete the valuation and have recorded a preliminary purchase price allocation of net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of $123 million to indefinite-lived intangible assets, $51 million to definite-lived intangible assets, $202 million to goodwill, $1 million to property, plant and equipment, $2 million to inventory, $4 million to accounts receivable, $5 million to current liabilities and $132 million to long-term other liabilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the acquisition added incremental net revenues of $8 million and an operating loss of $6 million. We incurred acquisition-related costs of $4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

On April 1, 2020, we acquired a majority interest in Give & Go, a North American leader in fully-finished sweet baked goods and owner of the famous two-bite® brand of brownies and the Create-A-Treat® brand, known for cookie and gingerbread house decorating kits. The acquisition of Give & Go provides access to the in-store bakery channel and expands our position in broader snacking. The purchase consideration for Give & Go totaled $1,136 million, net of cash received. We have recorded a preliminary purchase price allocation of net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:

Within definite-life intangible assets, we allocated $416 million to customer relationships which have an estimated useful life of 17 years. Goodwill arises principally as a result of expansion opportunities and synergies across both new and legacy product categories. NaN of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The fair value for customer relationships at the acquisition date was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach. The fair value measurements of intangible assets are based on significant unobservable inputs, and thus represent Level 3 inputs. Significant assumptions used in assessing the fair values of intangible assets include discounted future cash flows, customer attrition rates and discount rates. The acquisition added incremental net revenues of $106 million and operating income of $6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the first quarter of 2020, we incurred $5 million of acquisition-related costs.

During the first quartersquarter of 2021 and 2020,2022, we evaluated our goodwill and intangible asset impairment risk through an assessment of potential triggering events. In light of the ongoing COVID-19war in Ukraine and the overall global pandemic,economic environment, we considered qualitative and quantitative information in our assessment overof goodwill and indefinite-life intangible assets. Based on the financial performance of our goodwill reporting units, andwe concluded there were no impairment indicators for goodwill. Based on further quantitative analysis of our indefinite-life intangible assets, and review of other significant fair value assumptions, we concluded that noa biscuit brand was impaired. During the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a $78 million impairment indicators were present that would require a full impairment assessment. We will continue to monitorcharge for the potential forbrand within asset impairment riskand exit costs and based on the excess carrying value over coming quarters.its estimated fair value. During our indefinite-life impairment testing, we use several accepted valuation methods, including relief of royalty, excess earnings and excess margin, that utilize estimates of future sales, earnings growth rates, royalty rates and discount rates in determining a brand's global fair value.

In 2020, we recorded $144 millionDuring the first quarter of 2021, there were no impairments of goodwill or intangible assets. During our 2021 annual indefinite-life intangible asset impairment charges related to 8brands. The ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in greater declinestesting in the sales and earnings for certain brands, particularly our gum brands. During our annual impairment testing asthird quarter of July 1, 2020,2021, we identified 98 brands, including the 8one brand impaired brands,during the first quarter of 2022, that each had a fair value in excess of book value of 10% or less. The aggregate book value of the 98 brands was $738$1,045 million as of March 31, 2021.2022. We continue to monitor our brand performance, particularly in light of the significant uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemicglobal economic uncertainties and related impacts to our business. If the branda brand's earnings expectations, including the timing of the expected recovery from the COVID-19war and the pandemic, impacts, are not met or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly, then a brand or brands could become impaired in the future.

Note 6. Equity Method Investments

Equity method investments consist of our investments in entities in which we maintain an equity ownership interest and apply the equity method of accounting due to our ability to exert significant influence over decisions relating to their operating and financial affairs. Revenue and expenses of our equity method investees are not consolidated into our financial statements; rather, our proportionate share of the earnings of each investee is reflected as equity method investment net earnings. The carrying values of our equity method investments are also impacted by our proportionate share of items impacting the investee's accumulated other comprehensive income or losses and other items, such as our share of investee dividends.

Our equity method investments include, but are not limited to, our ownership interests in JDE Peet's (Euronext Amsterdam: "JDEP"), Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. (NASDAQ:(Nasdaq: "KDP"), Dong Suh Foods Corporation and Dong Suh Oil & Fats Co. Ltd. Our ownership interests may change over time due to investee stock-based compensation arrangements, share issuances or other equity-related transactions. As of March 31, 2021,2022, we owned 22.8%22.7%, 8.3%5.3%, 50.0% and 49.0%, respectively, of these companies' outstanding shares.

Our investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting totaled $5,916$5,255 million as of March 31, 20212022 and $6,036$5,289 million as of December 31, 2020.2021. We recorded equity earnings of $117 million and cash dividends of $107 million in the first quarter of 2022 and equity earnings of $78 million and cash dividends of $74 million in the first quarter of 2021 and equity earnings and cash dividends of $121 million and $165 million in the first quarter of 2020.2021.

Based on the quoted closing prices as of March 31, 2021,2022, the combined fair value of our publicly-traded investments in JDEP and KDP was $8.3was $6.1 billion, and for each investment, its fair value exceeded its carrying value.

Keurig Dr Pepper Transactions:
On March 4, 2020,September 20, 2021, we participatedissued €300 million exchangeable bonds, which are redeemable at maturity in a secondary offeringSeptember 2024 at their principal amount in cash or, at our option, through the delivery of KDPan equivalent number of JDE Peet’s ordinary shares based on an initial exchange price of €35.40 and, soldas the case may be, an additional amount in cash. If all bonds were redeemed in exchange for JDE Peet's shares, this would represent approximately 6.88.5 million shares which reducedor approximately 7% of our ownership interest by 0.5% of the total outstanding shares. We received $185 million of proceeds and recorded a pre-tax gain of $71 million (or $54 million after-tax) during the first quarter of 2020.

We hold 2 director positions on the KDP board as well as additional governance rights. As we continue to have significant influence, we continue to account for our investment in KDP under the equity method, resulting in recognizing our share of their earnings within our earnings and our share of their dividends within our cash flows.

JDE Peet’s Transaction:
On May 19, 2020, JDE Peet’s B.V. (renamed JDE Peet’s N.V. immediately prior to Settlement (as defined below), “JDE Peet’s”) announced its intention to launch an offering of its ordinary shares (the “offering”) and to apply for admission to listing and trading of all of its ordinary shares on Euronext Amsterdam, a regulated market operated by Euronext Amsterdam N.V. (the “admission”). On May 26, 2020, JDE Peet’s published a prospectus in connection with the offering and the admission. On May 29, 2020, JDE Peet’s announced the final pricing terms of the offering, and JDE Peet’s and the selling shareholders, including us, agreed to sell at a price of €31.50 per ordinary share a total of approximately 82.1 million ordinary shares, including ordinary shares subject to an over-allotment option. The ordinary shares were listed and first traded on May 29, 2020, and payment for, and delivery of, the ordinary shares sold in the offering (excluding ordinary shares subject to the over-allotment option) took place on June 2, 2020 (“Settlement”).

Prior to Settlement, we exchanged our 26.4% ownership interest in JDE for a 26.5% equity interest in JDE Peet’s. We did not invest new capital in connection with the transactionPeet's. Refer to Note 9, Debt and the exchange was accountedBorrowing Arrangements, for as a change in interestfurther details on this transaction. Upon Settlement, we sold approximately 9.7 million of our ordinary shares in JDE Peet’s in the offering for gross proceeds of €304 million ($343 million). We subsequently sold approximately 1.4 million additional shares and received gross proceeds of €46 million ($51 million) upon exercise of the over-allotment option. Following Settlement and the exercise of the over-allotment option, we held a 22.9% equity interest in JDE Peet’s.

As was the case in our ownership interest in JDE, we have significant influence with respect to JDE Peet’s, and we will continue to account for our investment in JDE Peet’s under the equity method, resulting in recognizing our share of JDE Peet’s earnings within our earnings and our share of JDE Peet’s dividends within our cash flows. In the second quarter of 2020, in connection with this transaction, we changed our accounting principle to reflect our share of JDE’s historical and JDE Peet’s ongoing earnings on a one-quarter lag basis, although we continue to record dividends when cash is received. We determined a lag was preferable as it enables us to continue to report our quarterly and annual results on a timely basis, while recording our share of JDE Peet’s ongoing results after JDE

Note 7. Restructuring Program

On May 6, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a $3.5 billion 2014-2018 restructuring program and up to $2.2 billion of capital expenditures. On August 31, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a $600 million reallocation between restructuring program cash costs and capital expenditures so the $5.7 billion program consisted of approximately $4.1 billion of restructuring program charges ($3.1 billion cash costs and $1.0 billion non-cash costs) and up to $1.6 billion of capital expenditures. On September 6, 2018, our Board of Directors approved an extension of the restructuring program through 2022, an increase of $1.3 billion in the program charges and an increase of $700

Table of Contents
$700 million in capital expenditures. On October 21, 2021, our Board of Directors approved an extension of the restructuring program through 2023. The total $7.7 billion program now consists of $5.4 billion of program charges ($4.1 billion of cash costs and $1.3 billion of non-cash costs) and total capital expenditures of $2.3 billion to be incurred over the life of the program. The current restructuring program, as increased and extended by these actions, is now called the Simplify to Grow Program.

The primary objective of the Simplify to Grow Program is to reduce our operating cost structure in both our supply chain and overhead costs. The program covers severance as well as asset disposals and other manufacturing and procurement-related one-time costs. Since inception, we have incurred total restructuring and implementation charges of $4.8$5.1 billion related to the Simplify to Grow Program. We expect to incur the remainder of the program charges by year-end 2022.2023.

We recorded restructuring charges of $11 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $88 million in the first quarter of 2021 and $15 million in the first quarter of 2020 within asset impairment and exit costs and benefit plan non-service income.
We spent $17 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $34 million in the first quarter of 2021 and $37 million in the first quarter of 2020 in cash severance and related costs.
We recognized non-cash asset write-downs (including accelerated depreciation and asset impairments), and other adjustments, including any gains on sale of restructuring program assets, which totaled $2 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $40 million in the first quarter of 2021 and $3 million in the first quarter of 2020.2021.
At March 31, 2021, $2612022, $172 million of our net restructuring liability was recorded within other current liabilities and $47$30 million was recorded within other long-term liabilities.

Implementation Costs:
Implementation costs are directly attributable to restructuring activities; however, they do not qualify for special accounting treatment as exit or disposal activities. We believe the disclosure of implementation costs provides readers of our financial statements with more information on the total costs of our Simplify to Grow Program. Implementation costs primarily relate to reorganizing our operations and facilities in connection with our supply chain reinvention program and other identified productivity and cost saving initiatives. The costs include incremental expenses related to the closure of facilities, costs to terminate certain contracts and the simplification of our information systems. Within our continuing results of operations, we recorded implementation costs of $20 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $34 million in the first quarter of 2021 and $43 million in the first quarter of 2020.2021. We recorded these costs within cost of sales and general corporate expense within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Table of Contents
(1)Net investment hedge derivative contracts consist of cross-currency interest rate swaps, forward contracts and options. We also designate some of our non-U.S. dollar denominated debt to hedge a portion of our net investments in our non-U.S. operations. This debt is not reflected in the table above, but is included in long-term debt discussed in Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements. Both net investment hedge derivative contracts and non-U.S. dollar denominated debt acting as net investment hedges are also disclosed in the Derivative Volume table and the Hedges of Net Investments in International Operations section appearing later in this footnote.
(2)Equity method investment contracts consist of the bifurcated embedded derivative option that was a component of the September 20, 2021 €300 million exchangeable bonds issuance. Refer to Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements.

Derivatives designated as accounting hedges include cash flow and net investment hedge derivative contracts. Our currency exchange, and commodity derivative and equity method investment contracts are economic hedges that are not designated as accounting hedges. We record derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of our asset derivatives is recorded within other current assets and other assets and the fair value of our liability derivatives is recorded within other current liabilities and other liabilities.

Level 1 financial assets and liabilities consist of exchange-traded commodity futures and listed options. The fair value of these instruments is determined based on quoted market prices on commodity exchanges.

Level 2 financial assets and liabilities consist primarily of over-the-counter (“OTC”) currency exchange forwards, options and swaps; commodity forwards and options; net investment hedge contracts; and interest rate swaps. Our currency exchange contracts are valued using an income approach based on observable market forward rates less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Commodity derivatives are valued using an income approach based on the observable market commodity 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. Our bifurcated exchange options are valued, as derivative instrument liabilities, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model requires assumptions related to the market price of the underlying note and associated credit spread combined with the share of price, expected dividend yield, and expected volatility of the JDE Peet’s shares over the life of the option.Our calculation of the fair value of interest rate swaps is derived from a discounted cash flow analysis based on the terms of the contract and the observable market interest rate curve. Our calculation of the fair value of financial instruments takes into consideration the risk of nonperformance, including counterparty credit risk. Our OTC derivative transactions are governed by International Swap Dealers Association agreements and other

standard industry contracts. Under these agreements, we do not post nor require collateral from our counterparties. The majority of our derivative contracts do not have a legal right of set-off. We manage the credit risk in connection with these and all our derivatives by entering into transactions with counterparties with investment grade credit ratings, limiting the amount of exposure with each counterparty and monitoring the financial condition of our counterparties.

We record pre-tax (i) gains or losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive earnings/(losses) into earnings, (ii) gains or losses on ineffectiveness and (iii) gains or losses on amounts excluded from effectiveness testing in interest and other expense, net for interest rate contracts.

Based on current market conditions, we would expect to transfer losses of $113$9 million (net of taxes) for interest rate cash flow hedges to earnings during the next 12 months.

Cash Flow Hedge Coverage:
As of March 31, 2021,2022, our longest dated cash flow hedges were interest rate swaps that hedge forecasted interest rate payments over the next 34 years, and 65 months.

Hedges of Net Investments in International Operations:

Net investment hedge ("NIH") derivative contracts:
We enter into cross-currency interest rate swaps, forwards and options to hedge certain investments in our non-U.S. operations against movements in exchange rates. The aggregate notional value as of March 31, 20212022 was $4.7$7.3 billion.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings:
We routinely are involved in legal proceedings, claims, disputes, regulatory matters and governmental inspections or investigations arising in the ordinary course of or incidental to our business, including those noted below in this section. We record provisions in the consolidated financial statements for pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. For matters we have not provided for that are reasonably possible to result in an unfavorable outcome, management is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss or such amounts have been determined to be immaterial. At present we believe that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not materially harm our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, legal proceedings and government investigations are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or other events could occur. Unfavorable resolutions could involve substantial monetary damages. In addition, in matters for which conduct remedies are sought, unfavorable resolutions could include an injunction or other order prohibiting us from selling one or more products at all or in particular ways, precluding particular business practices or requiring other remedies. An unfavorable outcome might result in a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial position.

On April 1, 2015, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") filed a complaint against Kraft Foods Group and Mondelēz Global LLC (“Mondelēz Global”) in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the "District Court"), Eastern Division (the “CFTC action”) following its investigation of activities related to the trading of December 2011 wheat futures contracts that occurred prior to the spin-off of Kraft Foods Group. The complaint alleges that Kraft Foods Group and Mondelēz Global (1) manipulated or attempted to manipulate the wheat markets during the fall of 2011; (2) violated position limit levels for wheat futures and (3) engaged in non-competitive trades by trading both sides of exchange-for-physical Chicago Board of Trade wheat contracts. The CFTC seeks civil monetary penalties of either triple the monetary gain for each violation of the Commodity Exchange Act (the “Act”) or $1 million for each violation of Section 6(c)(1), 6(c)(3) or 9(a)(2) of the Act and $140,000 for each additional violation of the Act, plus post-judgment interest; an order of permanent injunction prohibiting Kraft Foods Group and Mondelēz Global from violating specified provisions of the Act; disgorgement of profits; and costs and fees. On August 15, 2019, the District Court approved a settlement agreement between the CFTC and Mondelēz Global. The terms of the settlement, which are available in the District Court’s docket, had an immaterial impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. On October 23, 2019, following a ruling by the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit regarding Mondelēz Global's allegations that the CFTC and its Commissioners violated certain terms of the settlement agreement and the CFTC's argument that the Commissioners were not bound by the terms of the settlement agreement, the District Court vacated the settlement agreement and reinstated all pending motions that the District Court had previously mooted as a result of the settlement. The parties have reached a new agreement in principle to resolve the CFTC action and have submitted the settlement to the District Court for approval. The District Court cancelled a scheduled conference on June 4, 2020 to discuss the proposed settlement agreement but indicated that it would rule on pending motions in due course. Additionally, several class action complaints were filed against Kraft Foods Group and Mondelēz Global in the District Court by investors in wheat futures and options on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated. The complaints make similar allegations as those made in the CFTC action, and the plaintiffs are seeking class action certification; monetary damages, interest and unjust enrichment; costs and fees; and injunctive, declaratory and other unspecified relief. In June 2015, these suits were consolidated in the District Court. On January 3, 2020, the District Court granted plantiffs'

plaintiffs' request to certify a class. It is not possible to predict the outcome of these matters; however, based on our Separation and Distribution Agreement with Kraft Foods Group dated as of September 27, 2012, we expect to bear any monetary penalties or other payments in connection with the CFTC action and the class action. Although the CFTC action and the class action complaints involve the same alleged conduct, a resolution or decision with respect to one of the matters may not be dispositive as to the outcome of the other matter.

In November 2019, the European Commission informed us that it has initiated an investigation into our alleged infringement of European Union competition law through certain practices restricting cross-border trade within the European Economic Area. On January 28, 2021, the European Commission announced it has taken the next procedural step in its investigation and opened formal proceedings. We are cooperating with the investigation and expect to continue to engage with the European Commission as theirits investigation proceeds. It is not possible to predict how long the investigation will take or the ultimate outcome of this matter.

Third-Party Guarantees:
We enter into third-party guarantees primarily to cover long-term obligations of our vendors. As part of these transactions, we guarantee that third parties will make contractual payments or achieve performance measures. At March 31, 2021,2022, we had no material third-party guarantees recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Tax Matters:
We are a party to various tax matter proceedings incidental to our business. These proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could subject us to additional tax liabilities and could materially adversely impact our business, results of operations or financial position.

Note 14. Income Taxes

As of the first quarter of 2022, our estimated annual effective tax rate, which excludes discrete tax impacts, was 24.8%. This rate reflected the impact of unfavorable foreign provisions under U.S. tax laws and our tax related to earnings from equity method investments (the earnings are reported separately on our statement of earnings and thus not included in earnings before income taxes), partially offset by favorable impacts from the mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. jurisdictions. The estimated annual effective tax rate also considers the impact of the establishment of a valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset arising from the anticipated 2022 Ukraine loss. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of 21.9% was favorably impacted by discrete net tax benefits of $62 million primarily driven by the Chipita acquisition, which resulted in the release of a portion of the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax asset for the step-up of intangible assets in Switzerland.

As of the first quarter of 2021, our estimated annual effective tax rate, which excludesexcluded discrete tax impacts, was 25.2%. This rate reflected the impact of unfavorable foreign provisions under U.S. tax laws and our tax related to earnings from equity method investments (the earnings are reported separately on our statement of earnings and thus not included in earnings before income taxes), partially offset by favorable impacts from the mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 of 19.1% was favorably impacted by discrete net tax benefits of $65 million, primarily driven by a $32 million net benefit from the release of liabilities for uncertain tax positions due to expirations of statutes of limitations and audit settlements in several jurisdictions and a $27 million benefit from a U.S. amended tax return filed to reflect new guidance from the U.S. Treasury Department.

As of the first quarter of 2020, our estimated annual effective tax rate, which excluded discrete tax impacts, was 25.2%. This rate reflected the impact of unfavorable foreign provisions under U.S. tax laws and our tax related to earnings from equity method investments (the earnings are reported separately on our statement of earnings and thus not included in earnings before income taxes), partially offset by favorable impacts from the mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of 21.2% was favorably impacted by discrete net tax benefits of $28 million, primarily driven by a $22 million net benefit from the release of liabilities for uncertain tax positions due to expirations of statutes of limitations and audit settlements in several jurisdictions.

Note 16. Segment Reporting

We manufacture and market primarily snack food products, including biscuits, (cookies, crackers and salted snacks), chocolate, gum & candy and various cheese & grocery products, as well as powdered beverage products.

We manage our global business and report operating results through geographic units. We manage our operations by region to leverage regional operating scale, manage different and changing business environments more effectively and pursue growth opportunities as they arise across our key markets. Our regional management teams have responsibility for the business, product categories and financial results in the regions.

Table of Contents
Our operations and management structure are organized into 4 operating segments:
    • Latin America
    • AMEA
    • Europe
    • North America

We use segment operating income to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. We believe it is appropriate to disclose this measure to help investors analyze segment performance and trends. Segment operating income excludes unrealized gains and losses on hedging activities (which are a component of cost of sales), general corporate expenses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), amortization of intangibles, gains and losses on divestitures and acquisition-related costs (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses) in all periods presented. We exclude these items from segment operating income in order to provide better transparency of our segment operating results. Furthermore, we centrally manage benefit plan non-service income and interest and other expense, net. Accordingly, we do not present these items by segment because they are excluded from the segment profitability measure that management reviews.

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

Description of the Company

We make and sell primarily snacks, including biscuits, (cookies, crackers and salted snacks), chocolate, gum & candy as well as various cheese & grocery and powdered beverage products. We have operations in approximately 80 countries and sell our products in over 150 countries.around the world.

We aim to be the global leader in snacking. Our strategy is to drive long-term growth by focusing on three strategic priorities: accelerating consumer-centric growth, driving operational excellence and creating a winning growth culture. We believe the successful implementation of our strategic priorities and leveraging of our strong foundation of iconic global and local brands, an attractive global footprint, our market leadership in developed and emerging markets, our deep innovation, marketing and distribution capabilities, and our efficiency and sustainability efforts, will drive top- and bottom-line growth, enabling us to continue to create long-term value for our shareholders.

Recent Developments and Significant Items Affecting Comparability

COVID-19War in Ukraine
As we pass the one-year anniversary
In February 2022, Russia began a military invasion of the World Health Organization declaring COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020, our main priority continues to beUkraine. For the safety of our employees, we stopped production and helpingclosed our facilities in Ukraine. We are providing all of our employees with compensation and with help in securing shelter in neighboring countries. We have also made cash and in-kind donations to several humanitarian aid organizations in the region.

In March 2022, our two Ukrainian manufacturing facilities in Trostyanets and Vyshhorod were significantly damaged. In connection with the damage to these plants and impairment of other assets, primarily inventory, other plant, property and equipment, as well as increased allowances on our receivables, we recorded $143 million of total charges directly incurred as a result of the war in Ukraine, including an accrual for continued compensation for our employees in Ukraine (see Note 1, Basis of Presentation, to the condensed consolidated financial statements, and refer to Items Affecting Comparability of Financial Results for additional information.) We are increasing operations and providing resources in other primarily European manufacturing and distribution facilities to seek to continue supplying our Ukraine business's customers and consumers across Europe.

As a food company, we continue to work to support the continuity of food supply and provide packaged foods to consumers. We have discontinued new capital investments and suspended our advertising spending in Russia, but as a food company with more than 2,500 employees in Russia, we have not ceased operations given we believe we play a role in the continuity of the food supply. We are required to comply with applicable international sanctions and other measures that have been imposed on Russian entities and additional sanctions and measures are under consideration. We continue to evaluate the situation in Ukraine and Russia and our ability to control our operating activities and businesses on an ongoing basis, and we continue to consolidate both our Ukrainian and Russian subsidiaries. Prior to the onset of the war, Ukraine generated 0.5% and Russia generated 2.9% of 2021 consolidated net revenues.

We provide more information on risks related to the war in Ukraine in our Financial Outlook section and under Item 1A, Risk Factors.

COVID-19

In the third year of the COVID-19 global pandemic, our main priority remains the safety of our employees as well as continuing to help maintain the global food supply. Together with our employees, customers, suppliers and other partners, we are working to emerge fromDuring the pandemic, stronger.

Duringparticularly in 2020 and also in 2021, we experienced a significantan overall increase in demand and revenue growth in certain markets as consumers increased their food purchases for in-home consumption. Results were particularly strongconsumption in modern trade (such as large grocery supermarkets and retail chains), e-commerce and especially for categories such as biscuits. However, othermany markets, while parts of our business were negatively affected by mandatedrelated lockdowns and other related restrictions. This was especially so during the second quarter of 2020 for some of our emerging markets due to store closures (particularly in our Latin America region as well as parts of our AMEA region)In late 2021, global supply chain, transportation and labor issues escalated and we experienced significantly higher operating costs, including higher overall raw material, transportation, labor and energy costs that have a greater concentration of traditional trade (suchcontinued to rise in 2022 as small family-run stores), our world travel retail (such as international duty-free stores), our foodservice businesses as well as in categories like gum and candy, which are more traditionally purchased and consumed out of home. The negative impacts experienced in the second quarter of 2020 subsided in the second half of 2020, as demand grew in both developed and emergingpandemic continues to affect global markets and a number of our key markets returned to higher growth.operations.

During the first quarter of 2021, many2022, our net revenues continued to grow with net revenue growth of 7.3% and Organic Net Revenue growth of 8.6%, compared to the trends we saw in late 2020 continued. Whilefirst quarter of 2021. In the first quarter of 2022, we continued to see increased demand primarily for most of our snack category products and revenue growth in both our emerging and developed markets, lower out-of-home consumption continued to negatively impact sales of our gum and candy products and our foodservice business, and the sharp reduction in global travel due to the pandemic continued to negatively impact our world travel retail business.

Overall, since the beginning of the global pandemic in the first quarter of 2020, temporary disruptions experienced in operations were not material to our consolidated results. We discuss these and other impacts of COVID-19 below.

Our Employees, Customers and Communities
We have taken a number of actions to promote the health and safety of our employees, customers and consumers, which is our first priority:
We implemented enhanced protocols to provide a safe and sanitary working environment for our employees. In many locations, our employees are working remotely whenever possible. For employees who are unable to work remotely, we adopted a number of heightened protocols, consistent with those prescribed by the World Health Organization, related to social distancing (including staggering lunchtimes and shifts where possible and restricting in-person gatherings and non-essential travel) and enhanced hygiene and workplace sanitation. At a local level, we also provided additional flexibility and support to employees in our manufacturing facilities, distribution and logistics operations and sales organization.
We have hired frontline employees in the U.S. and other locations to meet additional marketplace demand and promote uninterrupted functioning of our manufacturing, distribution and sales network.

Table of Contents
To assist those most impacted by COVID-19, we made a $15 million initial global commitment to support local and global organizations responding to food instability and providing emergency relief. To date, we have increased the level of support provided to approximately $28 million.

Our Supply Chain and Operations
We operate in the food and beverages industry and are part of the global food supply chain. One of our main objectives during the pandemic has been to maintain the availability of our products to meet the needs of our consumers. In response to increased demand, we increased production and, to date, we have not experienced material disruptions in our supply chain or operations:
We leveraged learnings from our timely response to the initial outbreak in China, and we put in place procedures across our supply chain to help mitigate the risk that our manufacturing sites experience material closures or disruptions.
We have not experienced material disruptions in our workforce; however, mandatory and voluntary stay-at-home restrictions have resulted in increased levels of absenteeism.
We continue to source raw ingredients, packaging, energy and transportation and deliver our products to our customers. Transportation costs have increased and commodity costs have become more volatile. Although we monitor these costs and our exposure to commodity prices and hedge against input price increases, we cannot fully hedge against all cost increases and changes in costs, and our hedging strategies may not protect us from increases in specific raw material costs. We anticipate continued commodity and other cost volatility as the pandemic continues.
While to date, the temporary disruptions in operations we experienced were not material to our consolidated results, the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak could still disrupt our global supply chain, operations and routes to market or those of our suppliers, their suppliers, or our co-manufacturers or distributors. These disruptions or our failure to effectively respond to them could increase product or distribution costs, prices and potentially affect the availability of our products.
In 2020, a generally stronger U.S. dollardeveloped markets relative to other currencies in which we operate negatively affected our net revenue and net earnings reported in U.S. dollars. In the first quarter of 2021, other currencies, such as the euro, British pound sterling and Australian dollar, strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar, which had a favorable effect on net revenues and net earnings.
During the second quarter of 2020 especially, we incurred higher operating costs primarily for labor, customer service and logistics, security, personal protective equipment and cleaning. In the second half of 2020 and through the first quarter of 2021, our spending in these areas was significantly less but still above pre-COVID levels. Most other aspects of our global supply chain and operations did not change materially to date. While we have not had material disruptions, we do not know whether or how our supply chain or operations may be negatively affected if the pandemic persists for an extended period or worsens. As we respond to this evolving situation, we intend to continue to execute on our strategic operating plans. Disruptions, higher operating costs or uncertainties like those noted above could result in delays or modifications to our plans and initiatives.

Our Liquidity
We believe the steps we have taken to enhance our capital structure and liquidity, prior to and during the pandemic, strengthened our ability to operate during the pandemic:
During both 2020 and 2019, we generated $4.0 billion of cash from operations, or approximately $3 billion each year after deducting capital expenditures.
Additionally, within cash provided by other investing activities, in 2020, we also received $185 million of cash proceeds from our participation in the KDP secondary offering during the first quarter of 2020 as well as $1.9 billion from subsequent KDP share sales over the third and fourth quarters of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, we also received €350 million ($394 million) from our participation in the JDE Peet's public share offerings. (Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Note 7, Equity Method Investments, for additional information).
As of March 31, 2021, we had $2.0 billion, and as of December 31, 2020, we had $3.6 billion, of cash and cash equivalents on hand. Based on our current available cash and access to financing markets, we do not anticipate any issue funding our next long-term debt maturities of approximately $1.5 billion in October 2021 and approximately $0.3 billion in December 2021.
We also have access to short-term and long-term financing markets and actively utilized these markets in 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. We continuecontinued to utilize the commercial paper marketsalso experience significantly higher operating costs. See additional details on our results in the United Statesour Discussion and Europe for flexible, low-cost, short-term financing. We issued additional long-term debt several times since the beginningAnalysis of 2020 due to favorable market conditions and opportunities to shift a portion of our funding mix from short-term to long-term debt at a low cost. We renewed one of our credit facilities duringHistorical Results.

TableDuring the pandemic, we continued to closely monitor our cash position and cash flows and worked to increase our access to financing. As of Contents
March 31, 2022, our liquidity remains strong. During the first quarter of 20212022, we funded our acquisition of Chipita (see additional information below) and now have $7.0issued $2 billion of undrawn credit facilities as well as other formslong-term debt, refinancing approximately $2 billion of short-termtendered and long-term financing options available. We have been, and we expect to continue to be, in compliance with ourredeemed debt covenants (refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section and Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements).
In connectionfor details) ahead of a 2022 rising interest rate environment. We generated $1.1 billion of cash from operations, ending the quarter with various legislatively authorized 2020 tax payment deferral mechanismscash and cash equivalents of $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2022. We also have $9 billion of unused credit facilities available for income tax, indirect tax (such as value-added tax) and payroll tax in a number of jurisdictions, we were ablewell as ongoing access to defer certain of these tax payments in 2020, which provided a cash benefit that reverses when the payments come due. Some of these payments were already made by the end of the first quarter of 2021; the remainder will come due in 2021 and 2022. The benefits associated with the deferral of these tax payments were not material to our financial statements.
After suspending our share repurchase program in March 2020 as a precautionary measure following the onset of the pandemic, we resumed the program in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Our Financial Position
During the first quarter of 2021, we evaluated the realizability of our assets and whether there were any impairment indicators. We reviewed our receivables, inventory, right-of-use lease assets, long-lived assets, equity method and other long-term investments, deferred tax assets, goodwill and intangible assets.
In connection with the ongoing pandemic, we identified a decline in demand for certain of our brands, primarily in the gum category, that prompted additional evaluation of our indefinite-life intangible assets. During the second and third quarters of 2020, we concluded that eight brands were impaired and we recorded $144 million of impairment charges in 2020. Subsequently and through the first quarter of 2021, while we did not identify impairment triggers for these or other brands, there continues to be significant uncertainty due to the pandemic. If brand earnings expectations are not met or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly, then a brand or brands could become impaired in the future. Refer to Note 5, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for additional details on our intangible asset impairment evaluation.
Restructuring and implementation activities continued to be in line with our Simplify to Grow Program strategic objectives.
financing. Our equity investments in JDE Peet's and KDP equity method investments also give us additional financial flexibility.
We continue to monitor the quality of our assets and our overall financial position.
We also continue to maintain oversight over our core process controls through our centralized shared service model, with key controls operating as designed.

Some of the initial impacts of the pandemic on our business moderated in the second half of 2020 and into the first quarter of 2021. While we have seen some improvements in business and economic conditions across many markets in which we do business, additional adverse impacts could arise that we cannot currently anticipate. Barring material business disruptions or other negative developments, we expect to continue to meet the demand of consumers for our snacks, food and beverage products. However, the elevated consumer demand we experienced to date may not continue. We are unable to predict with certainty how long the sustained demand will last or how significant it will be. In the near term, we continue to expect lower revenues in some markets that have a higher concentration of traditional trade outlets (such as small family-run stores), our gum and candy categories (which are more instant consumption in nature), as well as our world travel retail (such as international duty-free stores) and foodservice businesses. These businesses and different markets may also recover from the COVID-19 outbreak at different rates depending on many factors including vaccination levels. As we continue to proactively manage our business in response to the evolving impacts of the pandemic, we will continue to communicate withglobal economic environment and related uncertainty and business risks as well as prioritize and support our employees and customers; monitor andcustomers. We continue to take steps to further safeguardmitigate impacts to our supply chain, operations, technology and assets; protectassets. We intend to continue to execute on our liquidity and financial position; work towardstrategic operating plans as the situation evolves. We seek to further our strategic priorities and monitor our financial performance. We seek to position the Company to withstand the current uncertainties related to this pandemic and to emerge stronger.

KDP and JDE Peet's 2020 Equity Method Investment TransactionsChipita Acquisition

On March 4, 2020,January 3, 2022, we participatedclosed on our acquisition of Chipita S.A., which is a strategic complement to our existing snacks portfolio and advances our strategy to become the global leader in broader snacking. We paid cash consideration of €1.3 billion ($1.4 billion), net of cash received, and we assumed and paid down €0.4 billion ($0.4 billion) of Chipita's debt in January for a secondary offeringtotal purchase price of KDP sharesapproximately €1.7 billion ($1.9 billion).

shares, which reduced our ownership interest by 2.8% to 8.4%. We received $1,132 million of proceeds and recorded a pretax gain of $459 million (or $350 million after tax) during the fourth quarter of 2020. The cash taxes associated with the KDP share sales were paid in 2020.

During the second quarter of 2020, in connection with the JDE Peet's offering of its ordinary shares, we exchanged our 26.4% ownership interest in JDE for a 26.5% equity interest in JDE Peet’s. On May 29, 2020, we participated in the JDE Peet's offering and, with the subsequent exercise of the over-allotment option, we sold a total of approximately 11.1 million shares during the second quarter of 2020, retaining a 22.9% ownership interest in JDE Peet's. We received €350 million ($394 million) of total proceeds from the sales of JDE Peet's shares and we recorded a preliminary pre-tax gain of $121 million during the second quarter of 2020. We also incurred a $261 million tax expense that is payable in 2020 and 2021. During the third quarter of 2020, we increased our preliminary gain by $10 million to $131 million. During the fourth quarter of 2020, we reduced our tax expense by $11 million to $250 million. Consistent with our accounting for KDP and in connection with JDE Peet's becoming a public company, during the second quarter of 2020, we changed our accounting principle to reflect our share of JDE historical results and JDE Peet's ongoing results on a one-quarter lag basis while we continue to record dividends when cash is received. We determined a lag was preferable as it enables us to continue to report our quarterly and annual results on a timely basis and to record our share of JDE Peet's ongoing results once JDE Peet's has publicly reported its results. This change was applied retrospectively to all periods presented.

Summary of Results

Net revenues increased 7.9%7.3% to $7.2$7.8 billion in the first three months of 20212022 as compared to the same period in the prior year. In the first quarter of 2021, within2022, our developed markets, demand for our biscuits and chocolate products grew, though at a more moderate rate than in the same prior-year period, as wenet revenue growth continued to seereflect increased food purchasesdemand for in-home consumption due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In our emerging markets, the initial negative impacts we experienced from COVID-19 have subsided, resulting in a return to strong revenue growth across most of our key markets. However, the sharp reductionsnack category products in global travel dueboth our emerging and developed markets relative to the pandemic continued to negatively impact2021. Overall, our world travel retail business, and lower out-of-home consumption continued to negatively impact sales of our gum and candy products and our foodservice business. Our net revenue growth was positively impacteddriven by favorable currency translation, higher net pricing, favorable volume/mix and incremental net revenues from acquisitions, and favorable volume/mix.partially offset by unfavorable currency translation.

Organic Net Revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased 3.8%8.6% to $7.0$7.9 billion in the first three months of 20212022 as compared to same period in the prior year. During the first three months of 2021,2022, Organic Net Revenue grew due to higher net pricing and favorable volume/mix. Refer to our Discussion and Analysis of Historical Results below for additional information. Organic Net Revenue is on a constant currency basis and excludes revenue from acquisitions and divestitures. We use Organic Net Revenue as it provides improved year-over-year comparability of our underlying operating results (see the definition of Organic Net Revenue and our reconciliation with net revenues within Non-GAAP Financial Measures appearing later in this section).

Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EPS on a constant currency basis are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these measures as they provide improved year-over-year comparability of our underlying results (see the definition of Adjusted EPS and our reconciliation with diluted EPS within Non-GAAP Financial Measures appearing later in this section).

Financial Outlook

We seek to achieve profitable, long-term growth and manage our business to attain this goal using our key operating metrics: Organic Net Revenue, Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EPS. We use these non-GAAP financial metrics and related computations, particularly growth in profit dollars, to evaluate and manage our business and to plan and make near- and long-term operating and strategic decisions. As such, we believe these metrics are useful to investors as they provide supplemental information in addition to our U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") financial results. We believe it is useful to provide investors with the same financial information that we use internally to make comparisons of our historical operating results, identify trends in our underlying operating results and evaluate our business. We believe our non-GAAP financial measures should always be considered in relation to our GAAP results. We have provided reconciliations between our GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures in Non-GAAP Financial Measures, which appears later in this section.

In addition to monitoring our key operating metrics, we monitor developments and trends that could impact our revenue and profitability objectives, similar to those we highlighted in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 and discussed in the footnotes to our financial statements.

Market conditions. Snack categories grewcontinued to grow in the first quarter of 2021,2022. This is consistent with the latest findings in partthe third annual State of Snacking report, commissioned by Mondelēz International and issued in January 2022. The research report was conducted in conjunction with consumer poll specialist The Harris Poll and summarizes the findings from interviews with thousands of consumers across 12 countries. The report underscores the growth of snacking worldwide and how behavior, sentiment and routines surrounding food are being reshaped by factors such as we continue to see increased consumer demand for snacks purchases for in-home consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic. Snacking, which was already increasing among consumers, continues to grow as we noted in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our outlook for future snacks revenue growth remains strong, but we anticipate some volatility in revenues while current events and conditions continue. As further discussed belowthe COVID-19 pandemic, war in Ukraine and related impacts continue, we could see shifts in consumer demand and in our sales and product mix that could have a negative impact on our results. We continue to monitor volatility across markets, including global consumer, energy and other commodity, transportation, labor, currency and capital markets. We expect greater inflation, including input cost volatility and a higher aggregate cost environment in 2022, as the war in Ukraine, the pandemic, supply chain disruptions (affecting the availability of raw materials, packaging, transportation and other costs), rising energy costs, labor shortages, adverse weather events and conditions and other factors are expected to continue. Refer also to Commodity Trends and Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market RiskRisk.
,War in Ukraine. We expect to experience increased volatility and higher costs in international supply chains and global markets (including energy and other commodities, currencies and capital markets) in connection with the war in Ukraine with related negative impacts to our operating results that we cannot fully predict. We also expect increased inflationary pressures that will adversely impact our operating costs, particularly as the war continues. Demand for our products may also be negatively impacted, particularly in those markets closest to Ukraine or other markets that are more vulnerable to consumer price increases. We have also been expanding operations in other European facilities to continue supplying the majority of our Ukraine business's customers and consumers across Europe. We continue to take action and evaluate additional ways to mitigate risks, including executing business continuity plans to cover products produced in Ukraine and taking actions to adjust product offerings, package sizes and pricing to help address rising costs. While we are working to mitigate negative effects on our business, we may not be able to fully predict or respond to all impacts on a timely basis to prevent adverse impacts to our results. We also continue to monitor volatilitythe situation in global consumer, commodity, currencyRussia and capital markets that may continue untilany risks to our employees, operations or assets. Any ongoing or new developments in the COVID-19 outbreak is largely resolved.war could have a material negative effect on our business and results in the future.
COVID-19.COVID-19 We. As described above, we continue to monitor and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. While its full impact is not yetfully known, it has had a material negative effect on the economyglobal and local economies and could have a material negative effect on our business and results in the future, particularly if there are significant adverse changes to consumer demand, product mix or operating costs; significant disruptions to the supply, production or distribution of our productsproducts; or deterioration of the credit or financial stability of our customers and other business partners. While we have seen some improvements in overall economic conditions and the business climate in many markets where we sell and operate, new COVID-19 variants and spikes in infections and related lockdowns continue across a number of markets. Disruptions or our failure to effectively respond to them could further increase product or distribution costs and prices and negatively affect operations and results. Although we hedge to mitigate exposures to commodity and other input cost increases, we cannot fully hedge against all cost increases and changes in costs, and our hedging strategies may not protect us from increases in specific raw materials or other costs. We also may not be able to adjust pricing timely or fully, and this may negatively affect our revenue, margins or earnings. If an unexpecteda significant economic or credit deterioration occurs, it could impair credit availability and our ability to raise capital when needed. A significant disruption in the financial markets may also have a negative effect on our derivative counterparties and could impair our banking or other business partners, on whom we rely for access to capital and as counterparties for a number of our derivative contracts. Any of these and other developments could materially harm our business, results ofAs we continue to manage operations and financial condition. Weduring the pandemic, we will continue to prioritize the safety of our employees and consumers. As we continue to manage operations during the pandemic,consumers and we may continue to incur increased labor, customer service, commodity, transportation and other costs. As consumer demand for our products evolves, we could see continued shifts in product mix that could have a negative impact on results.

We also need to meet product and labeling standards for both the U.K. and E.U. Cross-border trade between the U.K. and E.U. is now subject to new customs regulations, documentation and reviews. Our supply chain in this market relies on imports of raw and packaging materials as well as finished goods. To date, we have not experienced significant delays at U.K.-E.U. border crossings. To comply with the new requirements, we increased resources in customer service and logistics, in our factories, and on our customs support teams. We adapted our processes and systems for the new and increased number of customs transactions.

Türkiye, Argentina and currency volatility. During the first quarter of 2022, currency exchange rate volatility increased. We discuss currency impacts on our results in our Discussion and Analysis of Historical Results. As further discussed in Note 1, Basis of Presentation – Currency Translation and Highly Inflationary Accounting, during the first quarter of 2022, we concluded that Türkiye became a highly inflationary economy for accounting purposes. As of April 1, 2022, we expect to apply highly inflationary accounting for our subsidiaries operating in Türkiye and change their functional currency from the Turkish lira to the U.S. dollar. Our operations in Türkiye contributed $43 million, or 0.6% of our condensed consolidated net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Based on a review of our Turkish lira-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, our operations in Türkiye had an immaterial net monetary liability position as of March 31, 2022. We also continue to apply highly inflationary accounting for our Argentinean subsidiaries. During the three months ended March 31, 2021,2022, we recorded a remeasurement loss of $5 million within selling, general and administrative expenses related to the revaluation of our Argentinean peso denominated net monetary position. The mix of monetary assets and liabilities and the exchange rate to convert Turkish lira and Argentinean pesos to U.S. dollars could change over time, so it is difficult to predict the overall impact of the TürkiyeandArgentina highly inflationary accounting on future net earnings.
Gum Portfolio Review. During 2021, we began to conduct a strategic review of our developed market gum business. We continue to conduct the review and expect to have more information to share in mid-2022.
U.K. advertising and promotion ban. In the United Kingdom, a ban on specific types of TV and online advertising of food containing levels of fat, sugar or salt above specified thresholds is expected to go into effect in 2023, and new measures restricting certain promotions and in-store placement of some of those products are expected to go into effect in October 2022. Although we are unable to estimate precisely the impact of the restrictions, they could significantly negatively affect our U.K. results of operations in 2022 and thereafter. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we generated 9.3% of our consolidated net revenues in the U.K.
Cybersecurity Risks. Global cybersecurity risks continue to increase and we continue to be on heightened alert and dedicate focused resources to network security, backup and disaster recovery and to provide ongoing workforce training and employ security measures to protect our systems and data. We also continue to monitor threats in our environment, including but not limited to the manufacturing environment and operational technologies, as well as adjusting information security controls based on updated threats. While we have taken security measures to protect our systems and data, security measures cannot provide absolute certainty or guarantee that we will be successful in preventing or responding to every breach or disruption on a timely basis.

Overall, our net revenueswe continued to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In developed markets, net revenuessee increased as demand for our biscuits and chocolatesnack category products, grew, though at a more moderate rate than in the prior-year period, reflecting continued increased food purchases for in-home consumption. However, the sharp reduction in global travelsome markets are still challenged due to the pandemic continued to negatively impact our world travel retail business, and lower out-of-home consumption continued to negatively impact sales of our gum and candy products and our foodservice business. Incremental net revenues from acquisitions and favorable currency translation also added to our developed markets revenue growth in the quarter. In emerging markets, the negative initial impacts we experienced from COVID-19 have subsided, resulting in a return to strong revenue growth across most of our key markets though some markets were still challenged, particularly those with significant gum and candy portfolios. In addition, unfavorable currency translation tempered emerging markets growth in the quarter.

pandemic. Organic Net Revenue growth was driven by higher net pricing and favorable volume/mix. Higher net pricing in all regions was due to the benefit of carryover pricing from 20202021 as well as the effects of input cost-driven pricing actions taken during the first three months of 2021.2022.

During the first quarter of 2021,2022, we realized higher net pricing and favorable volume/mix, which was partially offset by increased input costs. Higher net pricing, which included the carryover impact of pricing actions taken in 20202021 as well as the effects of input cost-driven pricing actions taken during the first three months of 2021,2022, was reflected across all regions. Volume/mix benefited from increased food purchases for in-home consumption though at a more moderate rate than the same period last year, but the sharp reduction in global travel due to the pandemic continued to negatively impact our world travel business, while lower out-of-home consumption continued to negatively impact sales of our gum and candy products and our foodservice business. Overall, favorableFavorable volume/mix was driven by Europe, Latin America and AMEA, and Europe, mostlypartially offset by unfavorable volume/mix in North America and Latin America.

Three Months Ended March 31:

Net revenues increased $157 million (23.5%), due to higher net pricing (17.0 pp) and favorable volume/mix (8.7 pp), partially offset by unfavorable currency (2.2 pp). Higher net pricing was reflected across all categories, driven primarily by Argentina, Brazil and Mexico.

Favorable volume/mix was driven by gains in chocolate, biscuits, gum and candy, partially offset by declines in refreshment beverages and cheese & grocery. Unfavorable currency impacts were due primarily to the strength of the U.S. dollar relative to most currencies in the region, primarily the Argentinean peso, partially offset by the strength of a few currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, primarily the Brazilian real.

Segment operating income increased $27 million (35.5%), primarily due to higher net pricing, favorable volume/mix, lower manufacturing costs due to productivity and lower costs incurred for the Simplify to Grow Program.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that cash from operations, our revolving credit and term loan facilities, short-term borrowings and our authorized long-term financing will continue to provide sufficient liquidity for our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, future payments of our contractual, tax and benefit plan obligations and payments for acquisitions, share repurchases and quarterly dividends. In light of the ongoing uncertainty relatedWe expect to the COVID-19 outbreak, however, an economic or credit crisis could occur and impair credit availability and our ability to raise capital when needed. A disruption in the financial markets could also impair our banking and other business partners, on whom we rely for access to capital and as counterparties for a number of our derivative contracts. Any of these and other developments could materially harm our access to capital or financial condition. We carry $7.0 billion of undrawn credit facilities, continue to utilize our commercial paper program and available international credit lines and we secured and continue toas needed. We continually evaluate long-term debt issuances to meet our short- and longer-term funding requirements. We also use intercompany loans with our international subsidiaries to improve financial flexibility. In connection with various legislatively authorized tax payment deferral mechanisms available for income tax, indirect tax (such as value-added tax)Our investments in JDE Peet's and payroll tax in a number of jurisdictions, we were able to defer certain of these tax payments in 2020, which provided a cash benefit that reverses when the cash tax payments become due. Some of these payments were already made by the first quarter of 2021; the remainder will come due in 2021 and 2022. The benefits associated with the deferral of these tax payments were not material to our financial statements.KDP also provide us additional flexibility. Overall, at this time, we do not expect any negative effects to our funding sources that would have a material effect on our liquidity; however,liquidity, and we continue to monitor our operations in Europe and effects from the war in Ukraine. To date, we have been successful in generating cash and raising financing as needed. However, in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, war in Ukraine or other circumstances, if a serious economic or credit market crisis were to occur,ensues, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.

Our most significant ongoing short-term cash requirements relate primarily to funding operations (including expenditures for raw materials, labor, manufacturing and distribution, trade and promotions, advertising and marketing, tax liabilities, benefit plan obligations and lease expenses) as well as periodic expenditures for acquisitions, shareholder returns (such as dividend payments and share repurchases) and property, plant and equipment.

Long-term cash requirements primarily relate to funding long-term debt repayments (refer to Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements), our U.S. tax reform transition tax liability which is payable through 2026 and deferred taxes (refer to Note 16, Income Taxes, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K), our long-term benefit plan obligations (refer to Note 10, Benefit Plans, andNote 11, Benefit Plans, in our Annual report on Form 10-K) and commodity-related purchase commitments and derivative contracts (refer to Note 9, Financial Instruments).

We generally fund short- and long-term cash requirements with cash from operating activities as well as cash proceeds from short- and long-term debt financing (refer to Debt below). We generally do not use equity to fund our ongoing obligations.

Cash Flow:
We believe our ability to generate substantial cash from operating activities and readily access capital markets and secure financing at competitive rates are key strengths and give us significant flexibility to meet our short and long-term financial commitments. Our cash flow activity is noted below:

Three months ended March 31,20222021
Net cash provided by operating activities$1,131 $915 
Net cash used in investing activities$(1,441)$(690)
Net cash used in financing activities$(1,280)$(1,781)

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities:
Net cash provided by operating activities was $915 million in the first three months of 2021 and $284 million in the first three months of 2020. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to higher earnings and lower year-over-year working capital requirements, partially offset by higher cash earnings, lower tax payments and lower cashhigher dividends received from our equity method investments.investments, partially offset by higher acquisition integration-related costs.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities:
Net cash used in investing activities was $690 million in the first three months of 2021 and $55 million in the first three months of 2020. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was due primarilylargely driven by higher cash payments for acquisitions, including $1.4 billion cash consideration paid for the Chipita acquisition during January 2022 relative to cash$490 million paid to acquire a majority interest in Grenade and the remaining equity of Hu Master Holdings during the first quarter of 2021 (refer to Note 2, Acquisitions and lapping the prior-year cashDivestitures), partially offset by proceeds from our participation in the KDP secondary offering.related to a sale of an acquired Chipita equity method investment and lower capital expenditures. We continue to make capital expenditures primarily to modernize manufacturing facilities and support new product and productivity initiatives. We expect 20212022 capital expenditures to be approximately $1.0$1.2 billion, including capital expenditures in connection with our Simplify to Grow Program. We expect to continue to fund these expenditures with cash from operations.

Net cash used in financing activities was $1,781 million in the first three months of 2021, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $455 million in the first three months of 2020. The increasedecrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to thelower share repurchases as well as lower net debt redeemed inrepayments as we largely refinanced debt during the first quarter of 2021, higher share repurchases and higher dividends paid.

Debt:
From time to time we refinance long-term and short-term debt. Refer2022 with lower interest rate debt (refer to Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements, for details) and we lapped higher amounts of ournet long-term debt activity duringrepayments in the prior-year first quarter. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was partially offset by higher dividends paid in the first three months of 2021. 2022 than in the same prior-year period.

Supply Chain Financing
As part of our continued efforts to improve our working capital efficiency, we have worked with our suppliers over the past several years to optimize our terms and conditions, which include the extension of payment terms. Our current payment terms with a majority of our suppliers are from 30 to 180 days, which we deem to be commercially reasonable. We also facilitate voluntary supply chain financing (“SCF”) programs through several participating financial institutions. Under these programs, our suppliers, at their sole discretion, determine invoices that they want to sell to participating financial institutions. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in SCF programs has no bearing on our payment terms or amounts due. Our responsibility is limited to making payments based upon the agreed-upon contractual terms. No guarantees are provided by the Company or any of our subsidiaries under the SCF programs and we have no economic interest in the suppliers’ decision to participate in the SCF programs. Amounts due to our suppliers that elected to participate in the SCF program are included in accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheet. We have been informed by the participating financial institutions that as of March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, $2.5 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, of our accounts payable to suppliers that participate in the SCF programs are outstanding.

Guarantees:
As discussed in Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, we enter into third-party guarantees primarily to cover the long-term obligations of our vendors. As part of these transactions, we guarantee that third parties will make contractual payments or achieve performance measures. At March 31, 2022, we had no material third-party guarantees recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Guarantees do not have, and we do not expect them to have, a material effect on our liquidity.

Debt:
The nature and amount of our long-term and short-term debt and the proportionate amount of each varies as a result of current and expected business requirements, market conditions and other factors. Due to seasonality, in the first and second quarters of the year, our working capital requirements grow, increasing the need for short-term financing. The second half of the year typically generates higher cash flows. As such, we may issue commercial paper or secure other forms of financing throughout the year to meet short-term working capital or other financing needs.

Refer to Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements, for details of our debt activity during the first three months of 2022. In the next 12 months, we expect to repay approximately $0.7 billion of maturing long-term debt including $0.2 billion in July 2022 and $0.5 billion in September 2022. We fund ongoing debt maturities and other long-term obligations using cash on hand or we may refinance obligations with long-term debt or short-term financing (such as our commercial paper borrowings) depending on financing available, timing considerations, flexibility to raise funding and the cost of financing.

During December 2021, our Board of Directors approved a new $7.0 billion long-term financing authority to replace the prior $6.0 billion authority. As of March 31, 2022, $5 billion of the long-term financing authorization remained available, with $2 billion of this amount allocated for any borrowings that we may make under the term loan facility we entered into in March 2022. Refer to Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements.

Our total debt was $19.7 billion at March 31, 2022 and $19.5 billion at December 31, 2021. Our debt-to-capitalization ratio was 0.41 at March 31, 2022 and 0.41 at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022, the weighted-average term of our outstanding long-term debt was 9.4 years. Our average daily commercial paper borrowings outstanding were $1.2 billion in the first three months of 2022 and $0.2 billion in the first three months of 2021. We had commercial paper outstanding totaling $0.5 billion as of March 31, 2022 and $0.2 billion as of December 31, 2021. We expect to continue to use cash or commercial paper to finance various short-term financing needs. Through March 31, 2022, we continue to comply with our debt covenants.

Commodity Trends

We regularly monitor worldwide supply, commodity cost and currency trends so we can cost-effectively secure ingredients, packaging and fuel required for production. During the first three months of 2021,2022, the primary drivers of the increase in our aggregate commodity costs were higher packaging, edible oils, dairy, energy, grains, sugar and other ingredient costs, partially offset by favorable year-over-year currency exchange transaction costs on imported materials as well as increased costs forand lower cocoa sugar, oils, packaging, grains, nuts and other ingredients costs, partially offset by lower costs for dairy and energy.costs.

A number of external factors such as the current COVID-19 global pandemic, effects of the war in Ukraine, climate and weather conditions, commodity, transportation and labor market conditions, currency fluctuations and the effects of governmental agricultural or other programs affect the cost and availability of raw materials and agricultural materials used in our products. We address higher commodity costs and currency impacts primarily through hedging, higher pricing and manufacturing and overhead cost control. We use hedging techniques to limit the impact of fluctuations in the cost of our principal raw materials; however, we may not be able to fully hedge against commodity cost changes, such as dairy, where there is a limited ability to hedge, and our hedging strategies may not protect us from increases in specific raw material costs. Due to competitive or market conditions, planned trade or promotional incentives, fluctuations in currency exchange rates or other factors, our pricing actions may also lag commodity cost changes temporarily.

WeAs a result of international supply chain, transportation and labor market disruptions and generally higher commodity, transportation and labor costs in the first quarter of 2022, we expect price volatility and a higher aggregate cost environment to continue in the remainder of 2021.2022. While the costs of our principal raw materials fluctuate, we believe there will continue to be an adequate supply of the raw materials we use and that they will generally remain available from numerous sources.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

See Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements, for information on debt transactions during 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use non-GAAP financial information and believe it is useful to investors as it provides additional information to facilitate comparisons of historical operating results, identify trends in our underlying operating results and provide additional insight and transparency on how we evaluate our business. We use non-GAAP financial measures to budget, make operating and strategic decisions and evaluate our performance. We have detailed the non-GAAP adjustments that we make in our non-GAAP definitions below. The adjustments generally fall within the following categories: acquisition & divestiture activities, gains and losses on intangible asset sales and non-cash impairments, major program restructuring activities, constant currency and related adjustments, major program financing and hedging activities and other major items affecting comparability of operating results. We believe the non-GAAP measures should always be considered along with the related U.S. GAAP financial measures. We have provided the reconciliations between the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures below, and we also discuss our underlying GAAP results throughout our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this Form 10-Q.

Our primary non-GAAP financial measures are listed below and reflect how we evaluate our current and prior-year operating results. As new events or circumstances arise, these definitions could change. When our definitions change, we provide the updated definitions and present the related non-GAAP historical results on a comparable basis (1).

Table of Contents
“Organic Net Revenue” is defined as net revenues excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures (2) and currency rate fluctuations (3). We also evaluate Organic Net Revenue growth from emerging markets and developed markets.
Our emerging markets include our Latin America region in its entirety; the AMEA region, excluding Australia, New Zealand and Japan; and the following countries from the Europe region: Russia, Ukraine, Turkey,Türkiye, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, the Baltics and the East Adriatic countries.
Our developed markets include the entire North America region, the Europe region excluding the countries included in the emerging markets definition, and Australia, New Zealand and Japan from the AMEA region.

“Adjusted Operating Income” is defined as operating income excluding the impacts of the Simplify to Grow Program (4); gains or losses (including non-cash impairment charges) on goodwill and intangible assets; divestiture (2) or acquisition gains or losses, and related divestituredivestiture-related costs (2), acquisition-related costs, and acquisition and integration costs and contingent consideration adjustments (2); the operating results of divestitures (2); remeasurement of net monetary position (5); mark-to-market impacts from commodity, and forecasted currency and equity method investment transaction derivative contracts (6); impact from resolution of tax matters (7); CEO transition remunerationincremental costs due to the war in Ukraine (8); impact from pension participation changes (9); Swiss tax reform impacts (10); and costs associated with the JDE Peet's transaction. We also present “Adjusted Operating Income margin,” which is subject to the same adjustments as Adjusted Operating Income. We also evaluate growth in our Adjusted Operating Income on a constant currency basis (3).

“Adjusted EPS” is defined as diluted EPS attributable to Mondelēz International from continuing operations excluding the impacts of the items listed in the Adjusted Operating Income definition as well as losses on debt extinguishment and related expenses; gains or losses on equity method investment transactions; net earnings from divestitures (2); gains or losses on interest rate swaps no longer designated as accounting cash flow hedges due to changed financing and hedging plans; and U.S. and Swissnet earnings from divestitures (2); initial impacts from enacted tax reform impactslaw changes (10).; and gains or losses on equity method investment transactions. Similarly, within Adjusted EPS, our equity method investment net earnings exclude our proportionate share of our investees’ significant operating and non-operating items (11). We also evaluate growth in our Adjusted EPS on a constant currency basis (3).

(1)When items no longer impact our current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, we remove these items from our non-GAAP definitions. In the first quarter of 2022, we added to the non-GAAP definitions the exclusion of incremental costs due to the war in Ukraine (refer to footnote (8) below).
(2)Divestitures include completed sales of businesses (including the partial or full sale of an equity method investment) and exits of major product lines upon completion of a sale or licensing agreement. As we record our share of KDP and JDE Peet’s ongoing earnings on a one-quarter lag basis, any KDP or JDE Peet’s ownership reductions are reflected as divestitures within our non-GAAP results the following quarter. Related to acquisitions, we exclude the impact of adjustments made to our acquisition contingent consideration liabilities that were recorded at the date of acquisition. We made this adjustment to better facilitate comparisons of our underlying operating performance across periods. See Note 2, Acquisitions and Divestitures, and Note 6, Equity Method Investments, for information on acquisitions and divestitures impacting the comparability of our results.
(3)Constant currency operating results are calculated by dividing or multiplying, as appropriate, the current-period local currency operating results by the currency exchange rates used to translate the financial statements in the comparable prior-year period to determine what the current-period U.S. dollar operating results would have been if the currency exchange rate had not changed from the comparable prior-year period.
(4)Non-GAAP adjustments related to the Simplify to Grow Program reflect costs incurred that relate to the objectives of our program to transform our supply chain network and organizational structure. Costs that do not meet the program objectives are not reflected in the non-GAAP adjustments.
(5)During the third quarter of 2018, as we began to apply highly inflationary accounting for Argentina (refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation), we excluded the remeasurement gains or losses related to remeasuring net monetary assets or liabilities in Argentina during the period to be consistent with our prior accounting for these remeasurement gains/losses for Venezuela when it was subject to highly inflationary accounting prior to deconsolidation in 2015.
(6)We exclude unrealized gains and losses (mark-to-market impacts) from outstanding commodity and forecasted currency and equity method investment transaction derivativesderivative contracts from our non-GAAP earnings measuresmeasures. The mark-to-market impacts of commodity and forecasted currency transaction derivatives are excluded until such time that the related exposures impact our operating results. Since we purchase commodity and forecasted currency transaction contracts to mitigate price volatility primarily for inventory requirements in future periods, we mademake this adjustment to remove the volatility of these future inventory purchases on current operating results to facilitate comparisons of our underlying operating performance across periods. We also discontinued designating commodity and forecasted currencyexclude equity method investment transaction derivativesderivative contract settlements as they represent protection of value for hedge accounting treatment. To facilitate comparisons of our underlying operating results, we have recast all historical non-GAAP earnings measures to exclude the mark-to-market impacts.future divestitures.

(8)On November 20, 2017, Dirk Van de Put succeeded Irene RosenfeldIn February 2022, Russia began a military invasion of Ukraine and we stopped our production and closed our facilities in Ukraine. We began to incur incremental costs directly related to the war including asset impairments, such as CEOproperty and inventory losses, higher expected allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable and committed compensation. We have isolated and exclude these costs from our operating results to facilitate evaluation and comparisons of Mondelēz Internationalour ongoing results. Incremental costs related to increasing operations in advance of her retirement at the end of March 2018. In order to incent Mr. Van de Put to join us, we provided him compensationother primarily European facilities are not included with a total combined target value of $42.5 million to make him whole for incentive awards he forfeited or grants that were not made to him when he left his former employer. The compensation we granted took the form of cash, deferred stock units, performance share units and stock options. In connection with Irene Rosenfeld’s retirement, we made her outstanding grants of performance share units for the 2016-2018 and 2017-2019 performance cycles eligible for continued vesting and approved a $0.5 million salary for her service as Chairman from January through March 2018. We refer to these elements of Mr. Van de Put’s and Ms. Rosenfeld’s compensation arrangements together as “CEO transition remuneration.” We are excluding amounts we expense as CEOcosts.

Table of Contents
transition remuneration from our non-GAAP results because those amounts are not part of our regular compensation program and are incremental to amounts we would have incurred as ongoing CEO compensation. As a result, in 2017, we excluded amounts expensed for the cash payment to Mr. Van de Put and partial vesting of his equity grants. In 2018, we excluded amounts paid for Ms. Rosenfeld’s service as Chairman and partial vesting of Mr. Van de Put’s and Ms. Rosenfeld’s equity grants. In 2019, we excluded amounts related to the partial vesting of Mr. Van de Put’s equity grants. During the first quarter of 2020, Mr. Van de Put's equity grants became fully vested.
(9)The impact from pension participation changes represents the charges incurred when employee groups are withdrawn from multiemployer pension plans and other changes in employee group pension plan participation. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP results because those amounts do not reflect our ongoing pension obligations. See Note 10, Benefit Plans, for more information on the multiemployer pension plan withdrawal.
(10)We excludehave excluded the impactinitial impacts from enacted tax law changes. Initial impacts include items such as the remeasurement of deferred tax balances and the 2019 Swisstransition tax reform andfrom the 2017 U.S. tax reform. During the third quarter of 2019, Swiss Federal and Zurich Cantonal tax events drove our recognition of a Swiss tax reform net benefit to our results of operations. On December 22, 2017, the United StatesWe exclude initial impacts from enacted tax reform legislation that included a broad range of business tax provisions. We exclude these tax reform impactslaw changes from our Adjusted EPS as they do not reflect our ongoing tax obligations under the newenacted tax reforms.law changes. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 for more information on the impact of Swiss and U.S. tax reform.
(11)We have excluded our proportionate share of our equity method investees’ significant operating and non-operating items such as acquisition and divestiture related costs, restructuring program costs and discrete U.S.initial impacts from enacted tax reform impacts,law changes, in order to provide investors with a comparable view of our performance across periods. Although we have shareholder rights and board representation commensurate with our ownership interests in our equity method investees and review the underlying operating results and significant operating and non-operating items each reporting period, we do not have direct control over their operations or resulting revenue and expenses. Our use of equity method investment net earnings on an adjusted basis is not intended to imply that we have any such control. Our GAAP “diluted EPS attributable to Mondelēz International from continuing operations” includes all of the investees’ significant operating and non-operating items.

We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides you with a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent these disclosures. Because non-GAAP financial measures vary among companies, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this report may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Our use of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure.measures. A limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is they exclude items detailed below that have an impact on our U.S. GAAP reported results. The best way this limitation can be addressed is by evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures in combination with our U.S. GAAP reported results and carefully evaluating the following tables that reconcile U.S. GAAP reported figures to the non-GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q.

Organic Net Revenue:
Applying the definition of “Organic Net Revenue,” the adjustments made to “net revenues” (the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) were to exclude the impact of currency and acquisitions. We believe that Organic Net Revenue reflects the underlying growth from the ongoing activities of our business and provides improved comparability of results. We also evaluate our Organic Net Revenue growth from emerging markets and developed markets, and these underlying measures are also reconciled to U.S. GAAP below.

Adjusted Operating Income:
Applying the definition of “Adjusted Operating Income,” the adjustments made to “operating income” (the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) were to exclude Simplify to Grow Program; intangible asset impairment charges; mark-to-market impacts from commodity, and forecasted currency and equity method investment transaction derivative contracts; acquisition integration costs and contingent consideration adjustments; acquisition-related costs; acquisition-relateddivestiture-related costs; gain on an acquisition; incremental costs due to the war in Ukraine; the remeasurement of net monetary position; and impact from pension participation changes. We also evaluate Adjusted Operating Income on a constant currency basis. We believe these measures provide improved comparability of underlying operating results.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

As we operate globally, we are primarily exposed to currency exchange rate, commodity price and interest rate market risks. We monitor and manage these exposures as part of our overall risk management program. Our risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of these markets may have on our operating results.

The COVID-19 pandemic and related global response significantly impacted economic activity and markets around the world. National and local governments imposed preventative or protective restrictions on travel and business operations and advised or required citizens to remain at home. Temporary closures of businesses were ordered and numerous other businesses temporarily closed voluntarily. The impact of the global pandemic and response as well as the war in Ukraine has had a material unfavorable impact on global and local markets, including commodity, currency and capital markets. While some of these markets such as the U.S. and other major stock markets and certain currencies have rebounded significantly in recent quarters, theseThese markets are likely to continue to remain volatile while the situation continues.these situations continue. An economic or credit crisis could occur and impair credit availability and our ability to raise capital when needed. A disruption in the financial markets may have a negative effect on our derivative counterparties and could impair our banking or other business partners, on whom we rely for access to capital and as counterparties for a number of our derivative contracts. We work to mitigate these risks and we largely employ existing strategies that are described below to mitigate currency, commodity and interest rate market risks.

We principally utilize derivative instruments to reduce significant, unanticipated earnings fluctuations that may arise from volatility in currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. For additional information on our derivative activity and the types of derivative instruments we use to hedge our currency exchange, commodity price and interest rate exposures, see Note 9, Financial Instruments.

Many of our non-U.S. subsidiaries operate in functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates create volatility in our reported results as we translate the balance sheets, operating results and cash flows of these subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar for consolidated reporting purposes. The translation of non-U.S. dollar denominated balance sheets and statements of earnings of our subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar for consolidated reporting generally results in a cumulative translation adjustment to other comprehensive income within equity. A stronger U.S. dollar relative to other functional currencies adversely affects our consolidated earnings and net assets while a weaker U.S. dollar benefits our consolidated earnings and net assets. While we hedge significant forecasted currency exchange transactions as well as certain net assets of non-U.S. operations and other currency impacts, we cannot fully predict or eliminate volatility arising from changes in currency exchange rates on our consolidated financial results. See Consolidated Results of Operations and Results of Operations by Reportable Segment under Discussion and Analysis of Historical Results for currency exchange effects on our financial results during the three months ended March 31, 2021.2022. Throughout our discussion and analysis of results, we isolate currency impacts and supplementally provide net revenues, operating income and diluted earnings per share on a constant currency basis. For additional information on the impact of currency policies, recent currency devaluations and highly inflationary accounting on our financial condition and results of operations, also see Note 1, Basis of Presentation – Currency Translation and Highly Inflationary Accounting,. including our discussion of Türkiyebecoming a highly inflationary economy with currency remeasurement impacts expected to start on April 1, 2022.

We also continually monitor the market for commodities that we use in our products. Input costs may fluctuate widely due to international demand, weather conditions, government policy and regulation and unforeseen conditions such as the current COVID-19 global pandemic.pandemic and war in Ukraine. Refer to Recent Developments and Significant Items Affecting Comparability and Financial Outlook above for updates on recent supply chain, transportation, labor and other disruptions that are increasing operating costs and impacting our results. To manage input cost volatility and inflation, we enter into forward purchase agreements and other derivative financial instruments. We also pursue productivity and cost saving measures and take pricing actions when necessary to mitigate the impact of higher input costs on earnings.

We regularly evaluate our variable and fixed-rate debt as well as current and expected interest rates in the markets in which we raise capital. Our primary exposures include movements in U.S. Treasury rates, corporate credit spreads and commercial paper rates as well as limited debt tied to London Interbank Offered Rates (“LIBOR”). The Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom plans to initiate the phase-out of many term LIBOR rates by the end of 2021 and to phase out the remaining LIBOR rates by June 30, 2023.. We do not anticipate a significant impact to our financial position from the planned phase out of LIBOR given our current mix of variable and fixed-rate debt.rates. We periodically use interest rate swaps and forward interest rate contracts to achieve a desired proportion of variable versus fixed rate debt based on current and projected market conditions. For more information on our 20212022 debt activity, see Note 8, Debt and Borrowing Arrangements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, together with our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021.2022. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2021.2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management, together with our CEO and CFO, evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Many of our employees and those of our outsourcing partners and other accounting service providers continued to work remotely as a significant number of our and their offices were closed in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.2022. There were no material changes in our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting as we were able to continue to maintain our existing controls and procedures over our financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There were noThe following represents a material changeschange in our risk factors to the risk factorsthose disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

The war in Ukraine has negatively impacted our business operations, financial performance and results of operations, and we are unable to predict the full extent to which the war in Ukraine will negatively impact our business, operations, financial condition, results of operations and stock price in the future.

The scope and duration of the war in Ukraine is uncertain, rapidly changing and hard to predict. Our business operations, financial performance and results of operations have been negatively impacted by the war, as discussed above in Recent Developments and Significant Items Affecting Comparability – War in Ukraine under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We have discontinued new capital investments and suspended our advertising spending in Russia. Other potential consequences include but are not limited to those outlined below:

As the business and geopolitical environment continues to change, we may further scale back our operations in Russia, which accounted for 2.9% of 2021 consolidated net revenues, or Ukraine, which accounted for 0.5% of 2021 consolidated net revenues.
Our Russian assets may be partially or fully impaired in future periods based on actions taken by Russia, other parties or us.
The war has materially disrupted commodity markets, including for wheat and energy, and is contributing to supply chain disruption and inflation. We expect continued volatility with respect to these costs, and our hedging activities might not sufficiently offset this volatility.
Our operations may be subject to increased risk of cyber threats as a result of the war.
International sanctions and other measures that have been imposed on Russian entities make it more difficult to operate in Russia, and failure to comply with applicable sanctions and measures could subject us to regulatory penalties and reputational risk.
We might face continued questions from stakeholders about our operations in Russia despite our role as a food company and our public statements about Ukraine and Russia.

These and other impacts of the war in Ukraine could have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, such as those relating to our reputation, brands, product sales, sanctions, trade relations in countries in which we operate, input price inflation and volatility, results of operations and financial condition. We might not be able to predict or respond to all impacts on a timely basis to prevent near- or long-term adverse impacts to our results. The ultimate impact of these disruptions also depends on events beyond our knowledge or control, including the scope and duration of the war and actions taken by parties other than us to respond to them. Any of these disruptions could have a negative impact on our business operations, financial performance, results of operations and stock price, and this impact could be material. Additionally, the war in Ukraine may also materially adversely affect our operating results and financial position in a manner that is not currently known to us or that we do not currently consider to be a significant risk.
