The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bunge Limited ("Bunge" or the "Company"), its subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which Bunge is considered to be the primary beneficiary, and as a result, include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all entities over which Bunge has a controlling financial interest. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from Bunge’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, forming part of Bunge’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022.

On September 4, 2022, Argentina’s government published Emergency Decree 576/2022, Programa de Incremento Exportador (the "Export Program"), aimed at boosting farmer selling, and in turn soybean exports. The Export Program introduced a new preferential U.S. dollar to Argentinian peso foreign exchange rate, available exclusively during the period between September 5 and September 30, 2022, payable to Argentinian farmers on qualifying Argentinian peso denominated sales of soybeans. Purchasers of the qualifying soybeans, including Bunge, received the same preferential rate on U.S. dollar funds placed onshore in Argentina and converted to Argentinian peso to fund soybean purchases.

Bunge is both a receiver of the preferential exchange rate for cash converted to Argentinian peso, as well as a payer of the same preferential rate on purchases of soybeans from farmers and related export duties. Transactions and monetary balances related to the Export Program were accounted for at the preferential rate. The net impact of the Export Program on Bunge's condensed consolidated statements of income was not material.

On August 1, 2022, Bayer AG (FRA: BAYN) acquired a 65% controlling interest in CoverCress Inc. ("CCI"), a Bunge Ventures portfolio company that has developed a novel low carbon-intensity winter oilseed crop called CoverCress™, by purchasing all equity interests in CCI other than those held by Bunge Ventures and Chevron USA, Inc., a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation ("Chevron", NYSE: CVX).

As a result of the transaction, during the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded an $18 million unrealized gain on its remaining 21.93% ownership interest in CCI within Other income (expense) – net of the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. Additionally, the Company reclassified its $44 million investment in CCI as of September 30, 2022 from Long-term Investments, within Other Non-current Assets, to Investments in affiliates in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Both Bunge's investment in CCI and the above mentioned related unrealized gain are recorded within Corporate and Other activities.

On May 1, 2022, Bunge completed a transaction with Chevron to create a joint venture, Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC (the "Joint Venture"), leveraging Bunge’s expertise in oilseed processing and farmer relationships, and Chevron’s expertise in fuels manufacturing and marketing, to help meet the demand for renewable fuels and to develop lower carbon intensity feedstocks. Bunge has a 50% ownership interest in the Joint Venture. Bunge contributed certain property, plant, and equipment related to two of its soybean processing facilities to the Joint Venture, with a fair value totaling approximately $521 million, and Chevron contributed an approximately equal value of cash and working capital. Bunge has also committed to undertake certain capital improvements on the soybean processing facilities contributed to the Joint Venture, up to an estimated $80 million, at which point Chevron will contribute an additional equivalent amount in cash. Under the terms of the Joint Venture's agreements, Bunge will operate the Joint Venture’s facilities, and Chevron will have purchase rights for oil produced by the Joint Venture for use as a renewable feedstock to manufacture low lifecycle carbon intensity transportation fuels. See Note 9 - Variable Interest Entities for further accounting considerations related to this transaction.

Bunge has operations in Turkey, which until March 31, 2022, used the official exchange rate published by the Turkish government to translate the Company's commercial transactions and for financial statement re-measurement purposes. Over the last several years, Turkey has experienced negative economic trends, as evidenced by multiple periods of increasing inflation rates, depreciation of the Turkish lira, and increasing borrowing rates, which have required the Turkish government to take mitigating actions. During the first quarter of 2022, Turkey became a highly inflationary economy as defined under U.S. GAAP. In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the financial statements of foreign entities in highly inflationary economies are required to be remeasured as if the functional currency were the reporting currency, commencing in the period subsequent to such economies becoming highly inflationary. As a result, effective April 1, 2022, the financial statements of Bunge's Turkish subsidiary have been remeasured using the reporting currency, the U.S. dollar, rather than the Turkish lira. This change has not had a material impact on Bunge's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Restricted cash and cash held for sale is included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and cash held for sale, reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets, which sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Cash paid for taxes, which primarily comprises income taxes and value added taxes, net of refunds, was $383 million and $309 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash paid for interest expense was $315 million and $231 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832) - Disclosures by Business Entities About Government Assistance, which requires annual disclosures for transactions with a government authority that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. This guidance will be applied prospectively to all transactions within the scope of the standard that are reflected in financial statements at the date of initial application and new transactions that are entered into after the date of initial application. As this standard requires annual disclosure only, the Company continues to identify its transactions that are subject to this guidance and evaluate the impact of this standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted earnings per share calculation and requires enhanced disclosures about the terms of convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. This guidance will be applied prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Bunge's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, with subsequent updates through ASU 2021-01, which collectively provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting, to ease the financial reporting burden related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance, and per the guidance, the Company is applying it prospectively to all eligible contract modifications through December 31, 2022. In March 2021, the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), responsible for regulating LIBOR, announced that most LIBOR settings would be discontinued after December 31, 2021, except for certain USD LIBOR settings, which will continue through June 30, 2023. In September 2021, the FCA further announced that it will require the LIBOR benchmark administrator to publish sterling and Japanese yen LIBOR settings under a synthetic methodology based on term risk-free rates for the duration of 2022. These synthetic LIBOR settings will be available only for use in legacy contracts and are not for use in new business.

Bunge has utilized the relief provided by Topic 848 to ensure financial reporting results reflect the intended continuation of such contracts and arrangements during the period of the market-wide transition to alternative reference rates. The expedients allow an eligible modified contract to be accounted for and presented as a continuation of the existing contract.

The Company has identified its LIBOR-based contracts that have been, or will be, impacted by the cessation of LIBOR. The Company continues to actively work with counterparties to incorporate fallback language in negotiated contracts, in addition to incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and fallback language, when applicable, in new contracts. The modification of contracts is ongoing; however, as of September 30, 2022, the adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on Bunge's condensed consolidated financial statements.
