Basis of Presentation: | 1. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto are unaudited. In the opinion of the management of the International Business Machines Corporation (the company), these statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present a fair statement of the companys results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses and accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) that are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results may be different. See the companys 2008 Annual Report for a discussion of the companys critical accounting estimates. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in this Form10-Q should be read in conjunction with the companys 2008 Annual Report. The company evaluated subsequent events through October27, 2009, the date the companys Board of Directors reviewed the financial statements to be issued. The company issued the financial statements on the same day. Within the financial tables in this Form10-Q, 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. |

Accounting Changes: | 2. Accounting Changes: In October2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued amended revenue recognition guidance for arrangements with multiple deliverables. The new guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition and allows the use of managements best estimate of selling price for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE), vendor objective evidence (VOE) or third-party evidence (TPE) is unavailable. For the company, this guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into on or after January1, 2011 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. The company is currently assessing its implementation of this new guidance, but does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. In October2009, the FASB issued guidance which amends the scope of existing software revenue recognition accounting. Tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the products essential functionality would be scoped out of the accounting guidance on software and accounted for based on other appropriate revenue recognition guidance. For the company, this guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into on or after January1, 2011 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. This guidance must be adopted in the same period that the company adopts the amended accounting for arrangements with multiple deliverables described in the preceding paragraph. The company is currently assessing its implementation of this new guidance, but does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. In September2009, the FASB issued amended guidance concerning fair value measurements of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). If fair value is not readily determinable, the amended guidance permits, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) provided by the investee without further adjustment. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods ending after December15, 2009. The company does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements due to the adoption of this amended guidance. In August2009, the FASB issued guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value. The guidance provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted market price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, an entity is required to measure fair value using a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset or, if unavailable, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar assets when traded as assets. If none of this information is available, an entity should use a valuation technique in accordance with exi |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: | 4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Cash and cash equivalents, debt and marketable equity securities and derivative financial instruments are recognized and measured at fair value in the companys consolidated financial statements. Notes and other accounts receivable and other investments are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable, other accrued expenses and short-term debt are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. In the absence of quoted prices in active markets, considerable judgment is required in developing estimates of fair value. Estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the company could realize in a current market transaction. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate fair values: Loans and Long-term Receivables Estimates of fair value 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. 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 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 is $20,583 million and $22,689 million and the estimated fair value is $22,338 million and $23,351 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively. |

Net investment in sales-type and direct financing leases includes unguaranteed residual values of $868 million and $916 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively, and is reflected net of unearned income of $962 million and $1,049 million and of allowance for doubtful accounts of $179 million and $217 million at those dates, respectively. Commercial financing receivables relate primarily to inventory and accounts receivable financing for dealers and remarketers of IBM and non-IBM products. Payment terms for inventory and accounts receivable financing generally range from 30 to 90 days. Client loan receivables relate to loans that are provided by Global Financing primarily to the companys clients to finance the purchase of the companys software and services. Separate contractual relationships on these financing arrangements are for terms ranging generally from two to seven years. Each financing contract is priced independently at competitive market rates. The company has a history of enforcing the terms of these separate financing agreements. The company utilizes certain of its financing receivables as collateral for non-recourse borrowings. Financing receivables pledged as collateral for borrowings were $260 million and $373 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively. The company did not have any financing receivables held for sale as of September30, 2009 and December31, 2008. |

Notes to Financial Statements | |
Derivatives and Hedging Transactions: | 6. Derivatives and Hedging Transactions: The company operates in multiple functional currencies and is a significant lender and borrower in the global markets. In the normal course of business, the company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations, and to a lesser extent equity and commodity price changes and client credit risk. The company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives, and, where cost effective, financing with debt in the currencies in which assets are denominated. For interest rate exposures, derivatives are used to better align rate movements between the interest rates associated with the companys lease and other financial assets and the interest rates associated with its financing debt. Derivatives are also used to manage the related cost of debt. For foreign currency exposures, derivatives are used to better manage the cash flow volatility arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate the counterparty credit risk, the company has a policy of only entering into contracts with carefully selected major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. The companys established policies and procedures for mitigating credit risk on principal transactions include reviewing and establishing limits for credit exposure and continually assessing the creditworthiness of counterparties. The right of set-off that exists under certain of these arrangements enables the legal entities of the company subject to the arrangement to net amounts due to and from the counterparty reducing the maximum loss from credit risk in the event of counterparty default. The company is also a party to collateral security arrangements with certain counterparties. These arrangements require the company to hold or post collateral (cash or U.S. Treasury securities) when the derivative fair values exceed contractually established thresholds. Posting thresholds can be fixed or can vary based on credit default swap pricing or credit ratings received from the major credit agencies. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk related contingent features that were in a liability position at September30, 2009 was $906 million for which the company has posted collateral of $217 million. Full overnight collateralization of these agreements would be required in the event that the companys credit rating falls below investment grade or if its credit default swap spread exceeds 250 basis points, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the collateral security arrangements. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments in net asset positions as of September30, 2009 was $890 million. This amount represents the maximum exposure to loss at the reporting date as a result of the counterparties failing to perform as contracted. This exposure is reduced by $707 million of liabilities included in master netting arrang |

The reduction in pre-tax stock-based compensation cost for the nine months ended September30, 2009, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, was principally the result of a reduction in the level of stock option grants ($128 million), partially offset by an increase related to restricted and performance-based stock units ($44 million). As of September30, 2009, the total unrecognized compensation cost of $1,139 million related to non-vested awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately three years. There were no significant capitalized stock-based compensation costs at September30, 2009 and 2008. |

Segments: | 8. Segments: The following tables reflect the results of the companys reportable segments consistent with the management system used by the companys chief operating decision maker. These results are not necessarily a depiction that is in conformity with GAAP. For example, employee retirement plan costs are developed using actuarial assumptions on a country-by-country basis and allocated to the segments based on headcount. Different results could occur if actuarial assumptions that are unique to the segments were used. Performance measurement is based on income before income taxes (pre-tax income). These results are used, in part, by management, both in evaluating the performance of, and in allocating resources to, each of the segments.

Acquisitions: | 11. Acquisitions/Divestitures: Acquisitions: During the nine months ended September30, 2009, the company completed three acquisitions at an aggregate cost of $60 million. The Software segment completed acquisitions of three privately held companies: in the second quarter, Outblaze Limited and Exeros,Inc.; and in the third quarter, Ounce Labs,Inc. Purchase price consideration was paid all in cash. These acquisitions are reported in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows net of acquired cash and cash equivalents. The table below reflects the purchase price related to these acquisitions and the resulting purchase price allocations as of September30, 2009: (Dollarsinmillions) AmortizationLife(yrs.)

The primary items that generated the goodwill are the value of the synergies between the acquired companies and IBM and the acquired assembled workforce, neither of which qualify as an amortizable intangible asset. The overall weighted-average life of the identified amortizable intangible assets acquired is 5.0 years. With the exception of goodwill, these identified intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Goodwill of $54 million has been assigned to the Software segment. Substantially all of the goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. |
Divestitures: | Divestitures: On March16, 2009, the company completed the sale of certain processes, resources, assets and third-party contracts related to its core logistics operations to Geodis. The company received proceeds of $365 million and recognized a net gain of $298 million on the transaction in the first quarter of 2009. The gain was net of the fair value of certain contractual terms, certain transaction costs and related real estate charges. As part of this transaction, the company outsourced its logistics operations to Geodis which enables the company to leverage industry-leading skills and scale and improve the productivity of the companys supply chain. In 2007, the company divested 51 percent of its printing business (InfoPrint) to Ricoh. The company also stated that it would divest its remaining ownership to Ricoh quarterly over a three year period from the closing date. At September30, 2009, the companys ownership in InfoPrint was 12.1 percent. See the companys 2008 Annual Report on page83 for additional information. |

The net carrying amount of intangible assets decreased $443 million during the first nine months of 2009, primarily due to the amortization of acquired intangibles. The aggregate intangible amortization expense was $313 million and $931 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, versus $331 million and $985 million for the third quarter and first nine months ended September30, 2008, respectively. In addition, in the first nine months of 2009, the company retired $668 million of fully amortized intangible assets, impacting both the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization by this amount. The amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years relating to intangible assets currently recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position is estimated to be the following at September30, 2009: Capitalized Acquired (Dollars in millions) Software Intangibles Total 2009 (for Q4) $ 178 $ 112 $ 291 2010 508 395 902 2011 215 346 561 2012 43 278 322 2013 201 201 The changes in the goodwill balances by reportable segment, for the quarter ended September30, 2009, are as follows: Foreign Currency Purchase Translation (Dollarsinmillions) Balance Goodwill Price AndOther Balance Segment 12/31/2008 Additions Adjustments Divestitures Adjustments 9/30/2009 Global Business Services $ 3,870 $ $ $ $ 179 $ 4,049 Global Technology Services 2,616 155 2,772 Software 10,966 54 36 629 11,685 Systems and Technology 772 (6 ) 1 |

Contingencies: | 14. Contingencies: The company is involved in a variety of claims, demands, suits, investigations, tax matters and proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, including actions with respect to contracts, intellectual property (IP), product liability, employment, benefits, securities, foreign operations and environmental matters. These actions may be commenced by a number of different parties, including competitors, partners, clients, current or former employees, government and regulatory agencies, stockholders and representatives of the locations in which the company does business. The following is a summary of the more significant legal matters involving the company. The company is a defendant in an action filed on March6, 2003 in state court in Salt Lake City, Utah by The SCO Group (SCO v. IBM). The company removed the case to Federal Court in Utah. Plaintiff is an alleged successor in interest to some of ATTs Unix IP rights, and alleges copyright infringement, unfair competition, interference with contract and breach of contract with regard to the companys distribution of AIX and Dynix and contribution of code to Linux. The company has asserted counterclaims, including breach of contract, violation of the Lanham Act, unfair competition, intentional torts, unfair and deceptive trade practices, breach of the General Public License that governs open source distributions, promissory estoppel and copyright infringement. In October2005, the company withdrew its patent counterclaims in an effort to simplify and focus the issues in the case and to expedite their resolution. Motions for summary judgment were heard in March2007, and the court has not yet issued its decision. On August10, 2007, the court in another suit, The SCO Group,Inc. v. Novell,Inc., issued a decision and order determining, among other things, that Novell is the owner of UNIX and UnixWare copyrights, and obligating SCO to recognize Novells waiver of SCOs claims against IBM and Sequent for breach of UNIX license agreements. At the request of the court in SCO v. IBM, on August31, 2007, each of the parties filed a status report with the court concerning the effect of the August10th Novell ruling on the SCO v. IBM case, including the pending motions. On September14, 2007, plaintiff filed for bankruptcy protection, and all proceedings in this case were stayed. In the SCO v. Novell case, on November25, 2008, SCO filed its notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, which included an appeal of the August10, 2007 ruling; on August24, 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals reversed the August10, 2007 ruling and remanded the SCO v. Novell case for trial. Novells motion for rehearing en banc is pending. On August25, 2009, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware approved the appointment of a Chapter 11 Trustee of SCO. On November29, 2006, the company filed a lawsuit against Platform Solutions,Inc. (PSI) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging that PSI violated certain intellectual property rights of IBM. PSI asserted counterclaims against IBM.

Commitments: | 15. Commitments: The companys extended lines of credit to third-party entities include unused amounts of $4,322 million and $4,403 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively. A portion of these amounts was available to the companys business partners to support their working capital needs. In addition, the company has committed to provide future financing to its clients in connection with client purchase agreements for approximately $2,758 million and $3,342 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively. The company has applied the guidance requiring a guarantor to disclose certain types of guarantees, even if the likelihood of requiring the guarantors performance is remote. The following is a description of arrangements in which the company is the guarantor. The company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Typically, these obligations arise in the context of contracts entered into by the company, under which the company customarily agrees to hold the party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations and covenants related to such matters as title to the assets sold, certain intellectual property (IP) rights, specified environmental matters, third-party performance of non-financial contractual obligations and certain income taxes. In each of these circumstances, payment by the company is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically allow the company to challenge the other partys claims. While typically indemnification provisions do not include a contractual maximum on the companys payment, the companys obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or nature of claim, and in some instances, the company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by the company. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements, due to the conditional nature of the companys obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the company under these agreements have not had a material effect on the companys business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, the company guarantees certain loans and financial commitments. The maximum potential future payment under these financial guarantees was $86 million and $50 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively. The fair value of the guarantees recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position is not material. Standard Warranty Liability Changes in the companys warranty liability balance are presented in the following table: (Dollarsinmillions) 2009 2008 Balance at January1 $ 358 $ 412 Current period accruals 245 294 Accrual adjustments to reflect actual experience (0 ) 37 Charges incurred (309 ) (373 ) Balance at September30 |
