Basis of Presentation: | |
Basis of Presentation: | 1. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes of IBM Credit LLC (IBM Credit or the company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial statements and footnotes are unaudited. In the opinion of the company’s management, these statements include all adjustments, which are only of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present a fair statement of the company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses and other comprehensive income/(loss) that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events, historical experience, actions that the company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. As a result, actual results may be different from these estimates. Member’s Interest in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position represents the accumulation of the company’s net income over time and contributions from IBM and distributions to IBM. Distributions by the company to IBM are considered first to be a return of profit as reflected in retained earnings in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Any amount distributed to IBM in excess of the company’s available balance in retained earnings is considered a return of a portion of member’s interest as reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Income tax expense is based on reported income before income taxes. Whereas the majority of non-U.S. entities are separate legal tax filers, the company’s U.S. federal and certain state and foreign operations will continue to be included in various IBM consolidated tax returns. In such cases, the income taxes for these entities are calculated using a separate return method modified to apply the benefits-for-loss approach, which is consistent with the company’s Tax Sharing Agreement with IBM. Under this approach, the provision for income taxes is computed as if the company filed tax returns on a separate tax return basis and is then adjusted, as necessary, to reflect IBM’s reimbursement for any tax benefits generated by the company. The amount of restricted cash included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows is immaterial for the periods presented. All significant intracompany transactions between IBM Credit’s businesses have been eliminated. All significant intercompany transactions between IBM Credit and IBM have been included in these Consolidated Financial Statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the company’s 2018 Form 10-K. Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. This is annotated where applicable. |

Accounting Changes: | |
Accounting Changes: | 2. Accounting Changes: New Standards to be Implemented In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance which changed the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance is effective on January 1, 2020 with early adoption of certain provisions permitted. The company early adopted the provision in the fair value guidance that removed the Level 1/ Level 2 transfer disclosures. The company is evaluating the adoption date for the remaining changes. As the guidance is a change to disclosures only, the company does not expect the guidance to have a material impact in the consolidated financial results. In June 2016, with amendments in 2018 and 2019, the FASB issued guidance for credit impairment based on an expected loss model rather than an incurred loss model. The guidance requires the consideration of all available relevant information when estimating expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions and forecasts and their implications for expected credit losses. A cross-functional team was established that is evaluating the financial instruments portfolio and the system, process and policy change requirements and continues to make substantial progress. The new guidance expands the scope of financial instruments subject to impairment, including off-balance sheet commitments and residual value. The guidance is effective January 1, 2020 with one-year early adoption permitted. The company will adopt the guidance as of the effective date and is continuing to evaluate the impact. Standards Implemented The FASB issued guidance in February 2016, with amendments in 2018 and 2019, which changed the accounting for leases. The guidance requires lessees to recognize right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities for most leases in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The guidance also made some changes to lessor accounting, including the elimination of the use of third-party residual value guarantee insurance in the lease classification test, and overall aligns with the new revenue recognition guidance. The guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The company adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2019 using the transition option whereby prior comparative periods were not retrospectively presented in the consolidated financial statements. The company elected the package of practical expedients not to reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs (IDC’s). From a lessor perspective, the changes in lease termination guidance, IDC and removal of third-party residual value guarantee insurance in the lease classification test did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial results. There are no material impacts of adoption from a lessee perspective as there are no material lease arrangements in which the company is a lessee. Refer to note 4, “Leases,” for additional information, including further discussion on the impact of adoption. In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance that allows entities to elect an option to reclassify the stranded tax effects related to the application of U.S. tax reform from accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) (AOCI) to retained earnings. The guidance was effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and can be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to all applicable periods. The company adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2018, and elected not to reclassify prior periods. In accordance with its accounting policy, the company releases income tax effects from AOCI once the reason the tax effects were established ceases to exist (e.g., when available-for-sale debt securities are sold or if a pension plan is liquidated). This guidance allows for the reclassification of stranded tax effects as a result of the change in tax rates from U.S. tax reform to be recorded upon adoption of the guidance rather than at the actual cessation date. At adoption on January 1, 2018, $5 million was reclassified from AOCI to retained earnings. In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the application of hedge accounting in certain areas, better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and make targeted improvements to presentation and disclosure requirements. The guidance was effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The company adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2018, and it did not have a material impact in the consolidated financial results. The FASB issued guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in May 2014 with amendments in 2015 and 2016. Revenue recognition depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires specific disclosures relating to revenue recognition. The company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified-retrospective transition method. The company concluded that substantially all of its financing and operating lease revenue streams are not within the scope of the guidance, as they are governed by other accounting standards. The guidance did not have an impact on the company’s consolidated financial results. |

Financial Instruments: | 3. Financial Instruments Fair Value Measurements Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Under this guidance, the company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy: ● Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date; ● Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and ● Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The guidance requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort. When available the company uses unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets to measure the fair value and classifies such items as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use current market-based or independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates and currency rates. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. The determination of fair value considers various factors including interest rate yield curves and time value underlying the financial instruments. For derivatives and debt securities, the company uses a discounted cash flow analysis using discount rates commensurate with the duration of the instrument. In determining the fair value of financial instruments, the company considers certain market valuation adjustments to the “base valuations” calculated using the methodologies described below for several parameters that market participants would consider in determining fair value: ● Counterparty credit risk adjustments are applied to financial instruments, taking into account the actual credit risk of a counterparty as observed in the credit default swap market to determine the true fair value of such an instrument. ● Credit risk adjustments are applied to reflect the company’s own credit risk when valuing all liabilities measured at fair value. The methodology is consistent with that applied in developing counterparty credit risk adjustments, but incorporates the company’s own credit risk as observed in the credit default swap market. As an example, the fair value of derivatives is derived utilizing a discounted cash flow model that uses observable market inputs such as known notional value amounts, yield curves, spot and forward exchange rates as well as discount rates. These inputs relate to liquid, heavily traded currencies with active markets which are available for the full term of the derivative. Certain assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis can be subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements. These assets include available-for-sale debt securities that are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. In the event of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security, fair value is measured using a model described above. Accounting guidance permits the measurement of eligible financial assets, financial liabilities and firm commitments at fair value, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, that are otherwise not permitted to be accounted for at fair value under other accounting standards. This election is irrevocable. The company has not applied the fair value option to any eligible assets or liabilities. The following tables present the company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. (Dollars in millions) At June 30, 2019 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents (1) Time deposits and certificates of deposit $ — $ 807 $ — $ 807 Money market funds 5 — — 5 Total 5 807 — 812 Derivative assets (2) — 46 — 46 Total assets $ 5 $ 853 $ — $ 858 Liabilities: Derivative liabilities (3) $ — $ 15 $ — $ 15 (1) Included within cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

(2) Included within other assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. (3) Included within other liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value Short-Term Receivables and Payables Short-term financing receivables are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable, other accrued expenses and short-term debt (including debt payable to IBM) are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except for short-term debt, which would be classified as Level 2. Long-Term Receivables Fair values are based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates offered for similar loans to clients with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value for long-term receivables was immaterial. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Long-Term Debt Fair value of publicly traded long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. For other long-term debt, which includes debt payable to IBM, for which a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique that uses rates currently available to the company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities is used to estimate fair value. The carrying amount of long-term debt (including debt payable to IBM) was $17,443 million and $17,276 million and the estimated fair value was $17,560 million and $17,199 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Derivative Financial Instruments The company operates in multiple currencies and is a lender and issuer in the capital markets and a borrower from IBM. In the normal course of business, the company may be exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. The company limits its exposure to core market risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, and through the use of match funding with IBM and third parties. Although the company seeks to substantially match-fund the terms, currency and interest rate variability of its debt against its underlying financial assets, risks may arise between assets and the related liabilities used for funding. The company may also choose to mitigate any remaining exposure relating to interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations through the use of interest rate or foreign exchange derivatives. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are presented on a gross basis. The notional amounts of the derivative instruments do not necessarily represent amounts exchanged by the company with IBM and third parties, and are not necessarily a direct measure of the financial exposure. The company also enters into master netting agreements with certain counterparties that allow for netting of exposures in the event of default or breach. However, in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the company does not offset derivative assets against liabilities in master netting arrangements. At June 30, 2019, the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in an asset position totaled $46 million and the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in a liability position totaled $15 million. If derivatives exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement with IBM had been netted in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the total derivative asset and liability positions would each have been reduced by $15 million. At December 31, 2018, the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in an asset position totaled $18 million and the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in a liability position totaled $37 million. If derivatives exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement with IBM had been netted in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the total derivative asset and liability positions would each have been reduced by $11 million. Interest Rate Risk Fixed and Variable Rate Borrowings The company issues debt in the capital markets to fund its operations. Access to cost-effective financing can result in interest rate mismatches with the underlying assets. To manage these mismatches and to reduce overall interest cost, the company may enter into interest-rate swaps with IBM to convert specific fixed-rate debt issuances into variable-rate debt (i.e., fair value hedges) and to convert variable-rate debt issuances into fixed-rate debt (i.e., cash flow hedges). At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the total notional amount of the company's interest rate swap contracts with IBM was $3,350 million at both periods. The weighted average remaining maturity of these instruments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, was approximately 1.9 years and 2.4 years, respectively. These interest rate contracts were accounted for as fair value hedges. The company did not have any cash flow hedges relating to this program outstanding at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Foreign Exchange Risk Long-Term Investments in Foreign Subsidiaries (Net Investment) The company enters into foreign exchange derivatives with IBM as a hedge of net investment of its foreign subsidiaries to reduce the volatility in member's interest caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates in the functional currency of major foreign subsidiaries with respect to the U.S. dollar. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the total notional amount of derivative contracts with IBM designated as net investment hedges was $1,255 million and $1,986 million, respectively. The weighted average remaining maturity of these instruments was 0.2 years at both periods. Foreign Currency Asset/Liability Management The company enters into foreign exchange derivative contracts to manage foreign currency exposures associated with the company’s funding from IBM and third parties. These derivatives are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. However, these derivatives represent economic hedges which provide an economic offset to the underlying foreign currency exposure. The terms of these derivative contracts are generally less than one year. The gains and losses recognized on economic hedges are recorded in other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings, and the associated cash flows are included in other investing activities-net, in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. There were no foreign exchange derivative contracts with third parties outstanding at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The following tables included in this note provide a quantitative summary of the derivative instrument-related risk management activity at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, as well as for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Leases: | 4. Leases Accounting for leases as a lessee IBM Credit’s global operations are primarily conducted in IBM leased or owned facilities, whereby IBM charges the company for occupancy expenses based on square footage space usage, with no fixed term commitment. As such, these arrangements do not represent leases and the company did not record any ROU assets or associated lease liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at January 1, 2019. For additional information, see Note 9, “Relationship with IBM and Related Party Transactions.” The company has no other material lease arrangements in which it is a lessee. Accounting for leases as lessor The company enters into leases as a means to provide financing to its clients. Assets under lease include new and used IBM equipment and certain original equipment manufacturers’ (OEM) IT products. IBM equipment generally consists of IBM Z, Power Systems and Storage Systems products. When entering into a contract with its clients, the company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at its inception. As part of that evaluation, the company considers whether there is an implicitly or explicitly identified asset in the arrangement and whether the client has the right to control that asset. The company determines whether there is a right to control the use of the asset by assessing the client’s rights to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and rights to direct the use of the identified asset. The company determines the classification of the lease at the lease commencement date. Lease payments due to IBM Credit are typically fixed and paid in equal installments over the lease term. The majority of the company’s leases do not contain variable payments that are dependent on an index or a rate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate (e.g., property taxes) that are paid directly by the company and are reimbursed by the client, are recorded as finance income, along with the related cost, in the period in which collection of these payments is probable. Payments that are made directly by the client to a third party, including certain property taxes and insurance, are not considered part of variable payments and therefore are not recorded by the company. The company has made a policy election to exclude from consideration in contracts all collections from sales and other similar taxes. The company’s payment terms for leases are typically unconditional. Therefore, in an instance when the client requests to terminate the lease prior to the end of the lease term, the client would typically be required to pay the remaining lease payments in full. At the end of the lease term, the company allows the client to either return the equipment, purchase the equipment at the then-current fair market value or a pre-stated purchase price, or renew the lease based on mutually agreed upon terms. The following tables present amounts included in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings related to lessor activity: (Dollars in millions) For the three months ended June 30: 2019 Financing lease revenue $ 51 Operating lease revenue 70 Variable lease revenue 2 Total lease revenue $ 124 (Dollars in millions) For the six months ended June 30: 2019 Financing lease revenue $ 107 Operating lease revenue 149 Variable lease revenue 12 Total lease revenue $ 268 Sales-Type and Direct Financing Leases If a lease is classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease, a net investment in the lease is recorded. For a sales-type lease, the net investment in the lease is measured at commencement date as the sum of the lease receivable and the estimated residual value of the equipment, less unearned income and allowance for credit losses. At June 30, 2019, the unguaranteed residual value of sales-type and direct financing leases was $481 million. For further information on the company’s investment in leases, including residual values, refer to note 5, “Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM.” IBM Credit enters into lease arrangements for the purpose of generating revenue by providing financing. As a result, any profit or loss at the lease commencement date is presented on a net basis within a single line item on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Under a net sales-type lease, eligible IDCs are deferred and recognized over the lease term. Over the term of a sales-type lease, the company recognizes financing revenue on the net investment in the lease and any variable lease payments, which are not included in the net investment in the lease. For a direct financing lease, the investment in lease is measured similarly to a sales-type lease, however, the net investment in the lease is reduced by any selling profit, which is typically zero. In a direct financing lease, the selling profit and IDCs are deferred at commencement and recognized over the lease term. Prior to the adoption of the new lease guidance, the company’s leases were generally classified as direct financing leases. Due to the changes in the lease classification requirements under the new lease guidance, the company’s leases are generally classified as sales-type leases and presented on a net basis. The company rarely enters into direct financing leases. The estimated residual value represents the estimated fair value of the equipment under lease at the end of the lease. Estimating residual value is a risk unique to financing activities, and management of this risk is dependent upon the ability to accurately project future equipment values. The company has insight into product plans and cycles for the IBM products under lease. The company estimates the future fair value of leased equipment by using historical models, analyzing the current market for new and used equipment and obtaining forward-looking product information such as marketing plans and technology innovations. The company optimizes the recovery of residual values by extending lease arrangements, or selling to IBM all equipment that has been returned at the end of lease. The company has historically managed residual value risk both through insight into IBM’s own product cycles and monitoring of OEM IT product announcements. The company periodically reassesses the realizable value of its lease residual values. Anticipated decreases in specific future residual values that are considered to be other-than-temporary are recognized immediately upon identification and are recorded as an adjustment to the residual value estimate. For sales-type and direct financing leases, this reduction lowers the recorded net investment and is recognized as a loss charged to finance income in the period in which the estimate is changed, as well as an adjustment to unearned income to reduce future-period financing activities. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, impairment of residual values was immaterial. The following table presents a maturity analysis of the lease payments due to IBM Credit on sales-type and direct financing leases over the next five years and thereafter, as well as a reconciliation of the undiscounted cash flows to the financing receivables recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at June 30, 2019: (Dollars in millions) Total Remainder of 2019 $ 1,231 2020 1,606 2021 1,062 2022 498 2023 110 Thereafter 10 Total undiscounted cash flows $ 4,517 Present value of lease payments (recognized as financing receivables) 4,156 * Difference between undiscounted cash flows and discounted cash flows $ 361 * Operating Leases Equipment provided to clients under an operating lease is carried at cost within equipment under operating leases in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and depreciated over the lease term using the straight-line method, generally ranging from one to six years. The depreciable base is the original cost of the equipment less the estimated residual value of the equipment at the end of the lease term. At June 30, 2019, the unguaranteed residual value of equipment under operating leases was $100 million. At commencement of an operating lease, IDCs are deferred. As lease payments are made, the company records financing revenue over the lease term. IDCs are amortized over the lease term on the same basis as lease income is recorded. The following table provides a maturity analysis of the undiscounted lease payments due to IBM Credit on operating leases over the next five years and thereafter, at June 30, 2019: (Dollars in millions) Total Remainder of 2019 $ 136 2020 102 2021 29 2022 2 2023 0 Thereafter — Total undiscounted cash flows $ 269 Assets under operating lease are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The impairment test is based on undiscounted cash flows, and, if impaired, the asset is written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. There were no material impairment losses incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 for assets under operating leases. These assets are included in e quipment under operating leases in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. |

Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM: | 5. Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM Financing receivables consist of Client Financing leases, loans and installment payment plans to end-user clients. Assets financed are primarily IT products and services where IBM and the company have experience. Client Financing arrangements are priced to achieve a market yield. Financing receivables also include Commercial Financing, which generally consists of working capital financing to suppliers, distributors and resellers of IBM and OEM IT products and services. Payment terms for working capital financing receivables generally range from 30 to 90 days. Beginning in the second quarter of 2019 and continuing throughout the year, the company is winding down the OEM IT portion of its commercial financing operations which has resulted in a reduction in commercial financing receivables. IBM Credit will continue to provide differentiated end-to-end financing solutions, including commercial financing in support of IBM partner relationships. The company purchases interests in certain of IBM’s trade accounts receivable at a discount and assumes the associated credit risk of IBM’s client. Effective in the second quarter of 2019, IBM and the company have suspended this program which has resulted in a reduction of short-term purchased receivables from IBM. These receivables are primarily for IT related products and services, which are due within 30 days, and IBM performs all servicing under these arrangements. These receivables are included within the Commercial Financing segment. The company also participates in receivables from IBM for certain long-term financing receivables generated from IBM’s Total Solution Offerings in certain countries as well as for certain government and other contracts. These receivables are included in the Client Financing segment. The company carries the credit risk of IBM’s clients for all purchased and participated receivables from IBM.

Financing receivables pledged as collateral for borrowings were $938 million and $710 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The company did not have any financing receivables held for sale as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Financing Receivables by Portfolio Segment The following tables present the recorded investment in financing receivables and participated receivables from IBM, by portfolio segment and by class, excluding Commercial Financing receivables, purchased receivables from IBM and other miscellaneous financing receivables at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Commercial Financing receivables and purchased receivables from IBM are excluded from the presentation of financing receivables by portfolio segment as they are short term in nature and the current estimated risk of loss and resulting impact to the company’s financing results are not material. The company determines its allowance for credit losses based on three portfolio segments: lease receivables, loan receivables and participated receivables from IBM, and further segments the portfolio into three classes: Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific.

Provisions for credit losses recorded for loan receivables and participated receivables from IBM were $2 million and a release of $8 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The average recorded investment of impaired leases and loans for Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific was $97 million, $26 million and $13 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and $70 million, $41 million and $20 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Both interest income recognized and interest income recognized on a cash basis on impaired leases and loans were immaterial for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The average recorded investment of impaired leases and loans for Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific was $97 million, $29 million and $13 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and $67 million, $40 million and $20 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Provisions for credit losses recorded for lease receivables, loan receivables and participated receivables from IBM were $9 million, $6 million and $12 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018. When determining the allowances, financing receivables are evaluated either on an individual or a collective basis. For individually evaluated receivables, the company determines the expected cash flow for the receivable and calculates an estimate of the potential loss and the probability of loss. For those accounts in which the loss is probable, the company records a specific reserve. The company considers any receivable with an individually evaluated reserve as an impaired receivable. In addition, the company records an unallocated reserve that is determined by applying a reserve rate to its different portfolios, excluding accounts that have been specifically reserved. This general reserve rate is based upon credit rating, probability of default, term, characteristics (lease/loan) and loss history. Past Due Financing Receivables The company considers a clients’ financing receivables past due when an installment is aged over 90 days. The following table summarizes the information about the recorded investment in lease and loan receivables and participated receivables from IBM, including recorded investments aged over 90 days and still accruing, billed invoices aged over 90 days and accruing, and recorded investment not accruing.

Credit Quality Indicators The company’s credit quality indicators, which are based on rating agency data, publicly available information and information provided by clients, as well as other information, are reviewed periodically based on the relative level of risk. The resulting indicators are a numerical rating system that maps to Moody’s Investors Service credit ratings as shown below. The company uses information provided by Moody’s, where available, as one of many inputs in its determination of client credit ratings. The following tables present the net recorded investment for each class of receivables, by credit quality indicator, at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Receivables with a credit quality indicator ranging from Aaa to Baa3 are considered investment grade. All others are considered non-investment grade. In certain circumstances, the company may mitigate credit risk through arrangements with third parties, including credit insurance, financial guarantees, or non-recourse borrowings.

Segments: | |
Segments: | 6. Segments The company’s operations consist of two business segments: Client Financing and Commercial Financing. The segments represent components of the company for which separate financial information is available that is utilized on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker in determining how to allocate resources and evaluate performance. The company is organized on the basis of its financing offerings. The company’s reportable segments are business units that offer different financing solutions based upon clients’ needs. Client Financing provides leases and loan financing to end-user clients, acquires installment payment plans offered to end-user clients by IBM, and acquires participation interests in IBM financing receivables for which the company assumes the IBM client’s credit risk from IBM. End-user clients are primarily IBM clients that elect to finance their acquisition of IBM’s hardware, software and services, as well as OEM IT hardware, software and services, to meet their total solution requirements. In addition, the company provides loans to IBM, primarily in support of IBM’s Global Technology Services segment’s acquisition of IT assets, which IBM uses in external, revenue-producing services contracts. Commercial Financing provides working capital financing for suppliers, distributors and resellers of IBM and OEM IT products and services. Beginning in the second quarter of 2019 and continuing throughout the year, the company is winding down the OEM IT portion of its commercial financing operations. IBM Credit will continue to provide differentiated end-to-end financing solutions, including commercial financing in support of IBM partner relationships. Commercial Financing also purchases interests in certain of IBM’s trade accounts receivable at a discount and assumes the credit risk with IBM’s client. Effective in second quarter of 2019, IBM and the company have suspended this program. For additional information, see note 5, "Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM.” Each segment includes an allocation of interest expense and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense. Interest expense is allocated based on the average assets in each segment. SG&A expense is allocated based on a measurable financial driver, such as net margin. IBM Credit and its consolidated subsidiaries are reported by the company’s parent, IBM, as part of IBM’s Global Financing segment, which also includes IBM’s remanufacturing and remarketing business.

Relationship with IBM and Related Party Transactions: | |
Relationship with IBM and Related Party Transactions: | 9. Relationship with IBM and Related Party Transactions IBM Credit is a captive finance company and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of IBM. IBM Credit generally conducts its financing activities with IBM on an arm’s-length basis, subject in certain cases, particularly with respect to originations, to commercial factors, including IBM’s relationship with a client. The following is a description of certain material relationships between IBM Credit and IBM, regarding support, operating, borrowing, licensing, service and other arrangements. Support Agreement Pursuant to a Support Agreement between IBM and IBM Credit, IBM has agreed to retain, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of at least 51 percent of the equity voting interests in the company at all times. IBM has also agreed to cause the company to have a minimum consolidated tangible net worth of at least $50 million on the last day of each of the company’s fiscal years (with consolidated tangible net worth for purposes of this discussion of the Support Agreement understood to mean (a) the total assets of IBM Credit and its consolidated subsidiaries less (b) the intangible assets and total liabilities of IBM Credit and its consolidated subsidiaries). IBM has also agreed to cause the company to maintain a leverage ratio not to exceed 11 to 1 for each of the company’s fiscal quarters. Leverage ratio for purposes of this discussion of the Support Agreement is understood to mean, for any calendar quarter, IBM Credit’s debt-to-equity ratio as reported in, and calculated in the manner set forth in, IBM Credit’s periodic report covering such fiscal quarter (refer to page Operating Relationship The company originates financing with end-user clients, which are primarily IBM customers that elect to finance their acquisition of IBM’s hardware, software, and services. The company participates in receivables from IBM for certain long-term financing receivables generated from IBM’s Total Solution Offerings in certain countries as well as for certain government and other contracts. The company carries the credit risk of IBM’s clients for all participated receivables from IBM. These receivables earned interest income of $46 million and $97 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, a decrease of $1 million and flat as compared to the same periods in 2018, respectively. The interest income is included in financing revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. For additional information, see note 5, “Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM.” The company purchases interests in certain of IBM’s trade accounts receivable at a discount and assumes the associated credit risk of IBM’s client. Effective in the second quarter of 2019, IBM and the company have suspended this program. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, finance income earned from these receivables was $8 million, a decrease of $1 million as compared to the same period in 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, finance income earned from these receivables was $23 million, an increase of $1 million as compared to the same period in 2018. The finance income is included in financing revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. For additional information, see note 5, “Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM.” In certain countries, the company provides loans to IBM, primarily in support of IBM’s Global Technology Services segment’s acquisition of IT assets, which it uses in external, revenue-producing services contracts. This financing is included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as financing receivables from IBM. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the interest income earned from these receivables was $45 million, an increase of $2 million as compared to the same period in 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, interest income earned was $89 million, an increase of $6 million as compared to the same period in 2018. The interest income is included in financing revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. The amount of such financings outstanding was $3,703 million at June 30, 2019 and $3,609 million at December 31, 2018. The amount of other receivables from IBM of $329 million and $2,019 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, primarily relate to the investment of a portion of the company's excess cash in short-term interest bearing accounts with IBM, which can be withdrawn upon demand. The company's investment of excess cash with IBM was $327 million at June 30, 2019 and $2,014 million at December 31, 2018. The decline in the first six months of 2019 was driven by the company’s decision to utilize its excess cash to repay a portion of its debt. The investment of excess cash with IBM is presented in other receivables from IBM in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the investing section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Interest income earned from these investments was $7 million and $15 million in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Interest income earned for these investments was $15 million and $21 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The interest income is included in financing revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. In addition, the company provides financing at market rates to suppliers, distributors and resellers of IBM products and services, a portion of which is supplemented by financing incentives from IBM to cover an interest free period. Fee income earned from these financing incentives under these arrangements for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $33 million, flat as compared to the same period in 2018. Fee income earned for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $82 million, an increase of $2 million as compared to the same period in 2018. These fees are included in financing revenue in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and are deferred and recognized over the term of the financing arrangement. Borrowing Relationship The company has a credit facility with IBM that allows the company to obtain short-term and long-term funding. These loans are included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as debt payable to IBM. Interest expense incurred on loans from IBM was $58 million and $131 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $75 million and $134 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Interest expense is included in financing cost in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. For additional information on short-term and long-term funding, see note 11, “Borrowings.” Services and Other Arrangements The company sources a number of services from IBM, including functional support for collection administration, treasury, accounting, legal, tax, human resources, marketing and IT. In certain instances, IBM acts as IBM Credit’s billing and collection agent and forwards the financing payments to IBM Credit. The company also has the right to use certain IBM intangible assets in its business. In addition, the company conducts its global operations primarily from IBM leased or IBM owned facilities. For these support services and occupancy expenses, IBM charged the company $54 million and $59 million in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $102 million and $110 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The company participates in the various IBM stock-based compensation plans, including awards of Restricted Stock Units and Performance Share Units. In addition, the company participates in certain multiemployer retirement-related plans that are sponsored by IBM. Amounts charged by IBM to the company related to stock-based compensation and multiemployer retirement-related plans expense during the periods reported were not material. Expenses related to the services discussed above are included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. These expenses may not be indicative of the expenses that IBM Credit will incur in the future, or would have incurred if the company had obtained these services from a third party. The outstanding amount of accounts payable to IBM of $1,170 million at June 30, 2019, and $3,044 million at December 31, 2018, primarily relate to unsettled purchases of equipment or receivables/loans (for software and services) from IBM. This payable account is non-interest bearing, short term in nature and is expected to be settled in the normal course of business. The company sells equipment returned from lease to IBM at cost, which approximates fair value. In addition, IBM may migrate a client to new technology. In the event this migration results in an early termination of a lease, IBM will purchase the returned equipment at a pre-negotiated price, which is a function of the discounted value of the scheduled future lease payments and the residual value. The company's net profit from sales of returned equipment to IBM was $7 million and $19 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The company's net profit from sales of returned equipment to IBM was $9 million and $27 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 respectively. These sales are recorded net in other (income) and expense in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Tax Sharing Agreement The company’s U.S. federal and certain state and foreign operations are included in various IBM consolidated tax returns; and, in such cases, IBM makes payments to tax authorities on the company’s behalf. IBM and the company maintain a Tax Sharing Agreement for any operations included in an IBM consolidated tax return, pursuant to which IBM charges the company for any taxes owed and reimburses the company for any tax attributes generated. Such charges or reimbursements are based upon a calculation of the company’s relevant pro forma stand-alone tax return. In the three months ended June 30, 2019, the company reported a provision for income taxes of $23 million and an effective tax rate of 17.0 percent, compared to a provision of $31 million and an effective tax rate of 20.9 percent in the three months ended June 30, 2018. In the six months ended June 30, 2019, the company reported a provision for income taxes of $173 million and an effective tax rate of 52.5 percent, compared to a provision of $73 million and an effective tax rate of 21.5 percent in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The change in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to an additional tax expense of $116 million related to guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury in January 2019 regarding U.S. tax reform repatriation tax. In accordance with the previously executed Tax Sharing Agreement between IBM and the company, $64 million of the resulting liability was settled through a non-cash contribution to member’s interest. This contribution is included in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Member’s Interest as contributions from IBM. |

The amount of these secured borrowings is reflected in the following short-term and long-term debt tables. Short-Term Debt Balance Balance (Dollars in millions) 6/30/2019 12/31/2018 Commercial paper $ 1,510 $ 2,995 Short-term loans 16 17 Secured borrowings 121 23 Debt $ 1,647 $ 3,035 Debt payable to IBM 5,148 10,223 Total $ 6,796 $ 13,258 IBM Credit maintains a commercial paper program under which the company is permitted to issue unsecured commercial paper notes from time to time, up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any one time of $5 billion. The proceeds of the commercial paper can be used for general corporate purposes, including, among other items, the repayment of indebtedness and other short-term liquidity needs. The maturity of the commercial paper notes issued can vary but may not exceed 364 days from the date of issuance. The notes are sold under customary terms in the commercial paper marketplace, and can be issued either at a discount from par, or at par, and bear interest rates as agreed upon under the terms and conditions of the agreements between the company and each commercial paper dealer. The weighted-average interest rate for commercial paper was 2.5 percent at June 30, 2019 and at December 31, 2018. The weighted-average interest rate for short-term loans was 6.1 percent and 4.3 percent at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and relates primarily to borrowings in Latin America in 2019 and in Asia Pacific in 2018. The weighted-average interest rate for secured borrowings was 4.2 percent and 6.9 percent at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Short-term financing receivables pledged as collateral for short-term secured borrowings were $121 million at June 30, 2019 and $23 million at December 31, 2018. The weighted-average interest rate for debt payable to IBM was 1.9 percent and 1.6 percent at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. At June 30, 2019, total short-term debt of $6,796 million declined $6,462 million driven by the company’s decision to utilize its excess cash to repay a portion of its debt and lower funding requirements associated with financing receivables.

The company utilizes certain of its financing receivables as collateral. Long-term financing receivables pledged as collateral for long-term secured borrowings were $816 million at June 30, 2019 and $687 million at December 31, 2018. The company’s indenture governing its debt securities contains significant covenants which obligate the company to promptly pay principal and interest, limit the aggregate amount of liens (other than permitted liens as such term is defined under the indenture) to 15 percent of the company’s consolidated net tangible assets, and restrict the company’s ability to merge or consolidate unless certain conditions are met. Pre-swap annual contractual obligations of long-term debt and long-term debt payable to IBM outstanding at June 30, 2019, are as follows: 2019 2024 and (Dollars in millions) (Q3-Q4) 2020 2021 2022 2023 beyond Total Long-term debt $ 1,593 $ 1,927 $ 3,091 $ 561 $ 758 $ 1 $ 7,931 Debt payable to IBM 2,417 3,344 1,958 1,264 397 112 9,493 Total $ 4,010 $ 5,271 $ 5,049 $ 1,825 $ 1,155 $ 113 $ 17,424 Interest on Debt The company recognized interest expense of $135 million and $285 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, of which $58 million and $131 million was interest expense on debt payable to IBM, respectively. The company recognized interest expense of $125 million and $227 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, of which $75 million and $134 million was interest expense on debt payable to IBM, respectively. Lines of Credit The company has committed lines of credit in some of the geographies which are not significant in the aggregate. Interest rates and other terms of borrowing under these lines of credit vary from country to country, depending on local market conditions. On July 18, 2019, IBM and the company (the Borrowers) entered into a new $2.5 billion 364-day Credit Agreement to replace the maturing $2.5 billion 364-day agreement, and extended the maturity date of their existing $2.5 billion Three-Year Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreements). The company’s Credit Agreements each contain significant debt covenants, which obligate the company to promptly pay principal and interest, limit the aggregate amount of secured indebtedness and sale and leaseback transactions to 10 percent of IBM’s consolidated net tangible assets, and restrict the ability of the company or IBM to merge or consolidate with a third party, unless certain conditions are met. The Credit Agreements also include several financial covenants, including that (i) IBM will not permit the consolidated net interest expense ratio, for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters taken as a single accounting period, to be less than 2.20 to 1.0; (ii) the company will not permit its tangible net worth to be less than $50 million as of the end of the fiscal year and (iii) the company’s leverage ratio cannot be greater than 11 to 1 as of the last day of the fiscal quarter. The Credit Agreements each contain a cross default provision with respect to other defaulted indebtedness of at least $500 million. The company is in compliance with all of its significant debt covenants, and is obligated to provide periodic certifications to its lenders. The failure to comply with its debt covenants could constitute an event of default. If certain events of default were to occur, the principal and interest on the debt to which any event of default applied would become immediately due and payable. The Borrowers are also restricted from amending, modifying or terminating the Support Agreement in any manner materially adverse to the lenders. For additional information on the Support Agreement, see note 9, “Relationship with IBM and Related Party Transactions.” |

Contingencies: | |
Contingencies: | 12. Contingencies : The company is, or may be, involved, either as plaintiff or defendant, in a variety of ongoing claims, demands, suits, investigations, tax matters and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Certain of these actions and proceedings are similar to suits filed against other financial institutions and captive finance companies. These may include collection and bankruptcy proceedings related to its leases and loans and proceedings concerning client allegations of wrongful repossession or defamation of credit. The company reviews claims, suits, investigations and proceedings at least quarterly, and decisions are made with respect to recording or adjusting provisions and disclosing reasonably possible losses or range of losses (individually or in the aggregate). In addition, the company also discloses matters based on its consideration of other matters and qualitative factors, including the experience of other companies in the industry, and investor, client and employee relations considerations. In accordance with the relevant accounting guidance, the company records a provision with respect to a claim, suit, investigation or proceeding when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any recorded liabilities, including any changes to such liabilities for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 were not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Also in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance, the company provides disclosures of matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. As of June 30, 2019, there were no matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. |

Commitments: | 13. Commitments : The company’s extended lines of credit to third-party entities include unused amounts of $4,590 million and $7,112 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. A portion of these amounts is available to the company’s Commercial Financing clients to support their working capital needs. The decrease reflects the company’s wind-down of its OEM IT commercial financing operations. In addition, the company has committed to provide future financing to its clients in connection with client purchase agreements for approximately $459 million and $495 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. |

Accounting Policies | |
Basis of Presentation | The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes of IBM Credit LLC (IBM Credit or the company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial statements and footnotes are unaudited. In the opinion of the company’s management, these statements include all adjustments, which are only of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present a fair statement of the company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses and other comprehensive income/(loss) that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events, historical experience, actions that the company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. As a result, actual results may be different from these estimates. Member’s Interest in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position represents the accumulation of the company’s net income over time and contributions from IBM and distributions to IBM. Distributions by the company to IBM are considered first to be a return of profit as reflected in retained earnings in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Any amount distributed to IBM in excess of the company’s available balance in retained earnings is considered a return of a portion of member’s interest as reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Income tax expense is based on reported income before income taxes. Whereas the majority of non-U.S. entities are separate legal tax filers, the company’s U.S. federal and certain state and foreign operations will continue to be included in various IBM consolidated tax returns. In such cases, the income taxes for these entities are calculated using a separate return method modified to apply the benefits-for-loss approach, which is consistent with the company’s Tax Sharing Agreement with IBM. Under this approach, the provision for income taxes is computed as if the company filed tax returns on a separate tax return basis and is then adjusted, as necessary, to reflect IBM’s reimbursement for any tax benefits generated by the company. The amount of restricted cash included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows is immaterial for the periods presented. All significant intracompany transactions between IBM Credit’s businesses have been eliminated. All significant intercompany transactions between IBM Credit and IBM have been included in these Consolidated Financial Statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the company’s 2018 Form 10-K. Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. This is annotated where applicable. |
Accounting Changes | New Standards to be Implemented In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance which changed the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance is effective on January 1, 2020 with early adoption of certain provisions permitted. The company early adopted the provision in the fair value guidance that removed the Level 1/ Level 2 transfer disclosures. The company is evaluating the adoption date for the remaining changes. As the guidance is a change to disclosures only, the company does not expect the guidance to have a material impact in the consolidated financial results. In June 2016, with amendments in 2018 and 2019, the FASB issued guidance for credit impairment based on an expected loss model rather than an incurred loss model. The guidance requires the consideration of all available relevant information when estimating expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions and forecasts and their implications for expected credit losses. A cross-functional team was established that is evaluating the financial instruments portfolio and the system, process and policy change requirements and continues to make substantial progress. The new guidance expands the scope of financial instruments subject to impairment, including off-balance sheet commitments and residual value. The guidance is effective January 1, 2020 with one-year early adoption permitted. The company will adopt the guidance as of the effective date and is continuing to evaluate the impact. Standards Implemented The FASB issued guidance in February 2016, with amendments in 2018 and 2019, which changed the accounting for leases. The guidance requires lessees to recognize right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities for most leases in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The guidance also made some changes to lessor accounting, including the elimination of the use of third-party residual value guarantee insurance in the lease classification test, and overall aligns with the new revenue recognition guidance. The guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The company adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2019 using the transition option whereby prior comparative periods were not retrospectively presented in the consolidated financial statements. The company elected the package of practical expedients not to reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs (IDC’s). From a lessor perspective, the changes in lease termination guidance, IDC and removal of third-party residual value guarantee insurance in the lease classification test did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial results. There are no material impacts of adoption from a lessee perspective as there are no material lease arrangements in which the company is a lessee. Refer to note 4, “Leases,” for additional information, including further discussion on the impact of adoption. In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance that allows entities to elect an option to reclassify the stranded tax effects related to the application of U.S. tax reform from accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) (AOCI) to retained earnings. The guidance was effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and can be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to all applicable periods. The company adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2018, and elected not to reclassify prior periods. In accordance with its accounting policy, the company releases income tax effects from AOCI once the reason the tax effects were established ceases to exist (e.g., when available-for-sale debt securities are sold or if a pension plan is liquidated). This guidance allows for the reclassification of stranded tax effects as a result of the change in tax rates from U.S. tax reform to be recorded upon adoption of the guidance rather than at the actual cessation date. At adoption on January 1, 2018, $5 million was reclassified from AOCI to retained earnings. In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the application of hedge accounting in certain areas, better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and make targeted improvements to presentation and disclosure requirements. The guidance was effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The company adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2018, and it did not have a material impact in the consolidated financial results. The FASB issued guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in May 2014 with amendments in 2015 and 2016. Revenue recognition depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires specific disclosures relating to revenue recognition. The company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified-retrospective transition method. The company concluded that substantially all of its financing and operating lease revenue streams are not within the scope of the guidance, as they are governed by other accounting standards. The guidance did not have an impact on the company’s consolidated financial results. |
Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Under this guidance, the company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy: ● Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date; ● Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and ● Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The guidance requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort. When available the company uses unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets to measure the fair value and classifies such items as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use current market-based or independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates and currency rates. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. The determination of fair value considers various factors including interest rate yield curves and time value underlying the financial instruments. For derivatives and debt securities, the company uses a discounted cash flow analysis using discount rates commensurate with the duration of the instrument. In determining the fair value of financial instruments, the company considers certain market valuation adjustments to the “base valuations” calculated using the methodologies described below for several parameters that market participants would consider in determining fair value: ● Counterparty credit risk adjustments are applied to financial instruments, taking into account the actual credit risk of a counterparty as observed in the credit default swap market to determine the true fair value of such an instrument. ● Credit risk adjustments are applied to reflect the company’s own credit risk when valuing all liabilities measured at fair value. The methodology is consistent with that applied in developing counterparty credit risk adjustments, but incorporates the company’s own credit risk as observed in the credit default swap market. As an example, the fair value of derivatives is derived utilizing a discounted cash flow model that uses observable market inputs such as known notional value amounts, yield curves, spot and forward exchange rates as well as discount rates. These inputs relate to liquid, heavily traded currencies with active markets which are available for the full term of the derivative. Certain assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis can be subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements. These assets include available-for-sale debt securities that are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. In the event of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security, fair value is measured using a model described above. Accounting guidance permits the measurement of eligible financial assets, financial liabilities and firm commitments at fair value, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, that are otherwise not permitted to be accounted for at fair value under other accounting standards. This election is irrevocable. The company has not applied the fair value option to any eligible assets or liabilities. |
Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured At Fair Value | Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value Short-Term Receivables and Payables Short-term financing receivables are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable, other accrued expenses and short-term debt (including debt payable to IBM) are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except for short-term debt, which would be classified as Level 2. Long-Term Receivables Fair values are based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates offered for similar loans to clients with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value for long-term receivables was immaterial. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Long-Term Debt Fair value of publicly traded long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. For other long-term debt, which includes debt payable to IBM, for which a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique that uses rates currently available to the company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities is used to estimate fair value. The carrying amount of long-term debt (including debt payable to IBM) was $17,443 million and $17,276 million and the estimated fair value was $17,560 million and $17,199 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments The company operates in multiple currencies and is a lender and issuer in the capital markets and a borrower from IBM. In the normal course of business, the company may be exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. The company limits its exposure to core market risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, and through the use of match funding with IBM and third parties. Although the company seeks to substantially match-fund the terms, currency and interest rate variability of its debt against its underlying financial assets, risks may arise between assets and the related liabilities used for funding. The company may also choose to mitigate any remaining exposure relating to interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations through the use of interest rate or foreign exchange derivatives. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are presented on a gross basis. The notional amounts of the derivative instruments do not necessarily represent amounts exchanged by the company with IBM and third parties, and are not necessarily a direct measure of the financial exposure. The company also enters into master netting agreements with certain counterparties that allow for netting of exposures in the event of default or breach. However, in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the company does not offset derivative assets against liabilities in master netting arrangements. At June 30, 2019, the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in an asset position totaled $46 million and the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in a liability position totaled $15 million. If derivatives exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement with IBM had been netted in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the total derivative asset and liability positions would each have been reduced by $15 million. At December 31, 2018, the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in an asset position totaled $18 million and the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with IBM that were in a liability position totaled $37 million. If derivatives exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement with IBM had been netted in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the total derivative asset and liability positions would each have been reduced by $11 million. |
Derivatives, Methods of Accounting, Hedge Effectiveness | (3) The company's policy is to recognize all fair value changes in amounts excluded from effectiveness testing in net income each period . |
Accounting for Leases as a Lessee | Accounting for leases as a lessee IBM Credit’s global operations are primarily conducted in IBM leased or owned facilities, whereby IBM charges the company for occupancy expenses based on square footage space usage, with no fixed term commitment. As such, these arrangements do not represent leases and the company did not record any ROU assets or associated lease liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at January 1, 2019. For additional information, see Note 9, “Relationship with IBM and Related Party Transactions.” The company has no other material lease arrangements in which it is a lessee. |
Accounting for Leases as a Lessor | Accounting for leases as lessor The company enters into leases as a means to provide financing to its clients. Assets under lease include new and used IBM equipment and certain original equipment manufacturers’ (OEM) IT products. IBM equipment generally consists of IBM Z, Power Systems and Storage Systems products. When entering into a contract with its clients, the company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at its inception. As part of that evaluation, the company considers whether there is an implicitly or explicitly identified asset in the arrangement and whether the client has the right to control that asset. The company determines whether there is a right to control the use of the asset by assessing the client’s rights to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and rights to direct the use of the identified asset. The company determines the classification of the lease at the lease commencement date. Lease payments due to IBM Credit are typically fixed and paid in equal installments over the lease term. The majority of the company’s leases do not contain variable payments that are dependent on an index or a rate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate (e.g., property taxes) that are paid directly by the company and are reimbursed by the client, are recorded as finance income, along with the related cost, in the period in which collection of these payments is probable. Payments that are made directly by the client to a third party, including certain property taxes and insurance, are not considered part of variable payments and therefore are not recorded by the company. The company has made a policy election to exclude from consideration in contracts all collections from sales and other similar taxes. The company’s payment terms for leases are typically unconditional. Therefore, in an instance when the client requests to terminate the lease prior to the end of the lease term, the client would typically be required to pay the remaining lease payments in full. At the end of the lease term, the company allows the client to either return the equipment, purchase the equipment at the then-current fair market value or a pre-stated purchase price, or renew the lease based on mutually agreed upon terms. |
Lessor Sales Type and Direct Financing Leases | Sales-Type and Direct Financing Leases If a lease is classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease, a net investment in the lease is recorded. For a sales-type lease, the net investment in the lease is measured at commencement date as the sum of the lease receivable and the estimated residual value of the equipment, less unearned income and allowance for credit losses. At June 30, 2019, the unguaranteed residual value of sales-type and direct financing leases was $481 million. For further information on the company’s investment in leases, including residual values, refer to note 5, “Financing Receivables, Receivables Purchased/Participated from IBM.” IBM Credit enters into lease arrangements for the purpose of generating revenue by providing financing. As a result, any profit or loss at the lease commencement date is presented on a net basis within a single line item on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Under a net sales-type lease, eligible IDCs are deferred and recognized over the lease term. Over the term of a sales-type lease, the company recognizes financing revenue on the net investment in the lease and any variable lease payments, which are not included in the net investment in the lease. For a direct financing lease, the investment in lease is measured similarly to a sales-type lease, however, the net investment in the lease is reduced by any selling profit, which is typically zero. In a direct financing lease, the selling profit and IDCs are deferred at commencement and recognized over the lease term. Prior to the adoption of the new lease guidance, the company’s leases were generally classified as direct financing leases. Due to the changes in the lease classification requirements under the new lease guidance, the company’s leases are generally classified as sales-type leases and presented on a net basis. The company rarely enters into direct financing leases. The estimated residual value represents the estimated fair value of the equipment under lease at the end of the lease. Estimating residual value is a risk unique to financing activities, and management of this risk is dependent upon the ability to accurately project future equipment values. The company has insight into product plans and cycles for the IBM products under lease. The company estimates the future fair value of leased equipment by using historical models, analyzing the current market for new and used equipment and obtaining forward-looking product information such as marketing plans and technology innovations. The company optimizes the recovery of residual values by extending lease arrangements, or selling to IBM all equipment that has been returned at the end of lease. The company has historically managed residual value risk both through insight into IBM’s own product cycles and monitoring of OEM IT product announcements. The company periodically reassesses the realizable value of its lease residual values. Anticipated decreases in specific future residual values that are considered to be other-than-temporary are recognized immediately upon identification and are recorded as an adjustment to the residual value estimate. For sales-type and direct financing leases, this reduction lowers the recorded net investment and is recognized as a loss charged to finance income in the period in which the estimate is changed, as well as an adjustment to unearned income to reduce future-period financing activities. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, impairment of residual values was immaterial. |
Lessor Operating Leases | Operating Leases Equipment provided to clients under an operating lease is carried at cost within equipment under operating leases in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and depreciated over the lease term using the straight-line method, generally ranging from one to six years. The depreciable base is the original cost of the equipment less the estimated residual value of the equipment at the end of the lease term. At June 30, 2019, the unguaranteed residual value of equipment under operating leases was $100 million. At commencement of an operating lease, IDCs are deferred. As lease payments are made, the company records financing revenue over the lease term. IDCs are amortized over the lease term on the same basis as lease income is recorded. |
Operating Leases Impairment | Assets under operating lease are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The impairment test is based on undiscounted cash flows, and, if impaired, the asset is written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. There were no material impairment losses incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 for assets under operating leases. These assets are included in e quipment under operating leases in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. |
Financing Receivables, Allowance for Credit Losses and Other Credit-Related Policies | Commercial Financing receivables and purchased receivables from IBM are excluded from the presentation of financing receivables by portfolio segment as they are short term in nature and the current estimated risk of loss and resulting impact to the company’s financing results are not material. The company determines its allowance for credit losses based on three portfolio segments: lease receivables, loan receivables and participated receivables from IBM, and further segments the portfolio into three classes: Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. |
Financing Receivables Allowance Determination and Past Due | When determining the allowances, financing receivables are evaluated either on an individual or a collective basis. For individually evaluated receivables, the company determines the expected cash flow for the receivable and calculates an estimate of the potential loss and the probability of loss. For those accounts in which the loss is probable, the company records a specific reserve. The company considers any receivable with an individually evaluated reserve as an impaired receivable. In addition, the company records an unallocated reserve that is determined by applying a reserve rate to its different portfolios, excluding accounts that have been specifically reserved. This general reserve rate is based upon credit rating, probability of default, term, characteristics (lease/loan) and loss history. Past Due Financing Receivables The company considers a clients’ financing receivables past due when an installment is aged over 90 days. The following table summarizes the information about the recorded investment in lease and loan receivables and participated receivables from IBM, including recorded investments aged over 90 days and still accruing, billed invoices aged over 90 days and accruing, and recorded investment not accruing. |
Contingencies | In accordance with the relevant accounting guidance, the company records a provision with respect to a claim, suit, investigation or proceeding when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any recorded liabilities, including any changes to such liabilities for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 were not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Also in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance, the company provides disclosures of matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. As of June 30, 2019, there were no matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. |
