FINANCING RECEIVABLES |
FINANCING RECEIVABLES | (11) Financing Receivables The Company monitors the credit quality of financing receivables based on delinquency status. Past due balances of financing receivables still accruing finance income represent the total balance held (principal plus accrued interest) with any payment amounts 30 days or more past the contractual payment due date. Non-performing financing receivables represent loans for which the Company has ceased accruing finance income. The Company ceases accruing finance income, and accrued finance income previously recognized is reversed when these receivables are generally 90 days delinquent. Generally, when receivables are 120 days delinquent the estimated uncollectible amount from the customer is written off to the allowance for credit losses. Finance income for non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrual of finance income is generally resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collections are reasonably assured. Due to the economic effects of COVID, the Company provided short-term payment relief to dealers and retail customers during 2020, and to a much lesser extent in 2021. The relief was provided in regional programs and on a case-by-case basis with customers that were generally current in their payment obligations. Financing receivables granted relief since the beginning of the pandemic that remained outstanding at May 2, 2021 represented approximately 4 percent of the financing receivables balance. The majority of financing receivables granted short-term relief are beyond the deferral period and have either resumed making payments or are reported as delinquent based on the modified payment schedule. While the Company implemented a new strategy in fiscal year 2021 resulting in new operating segments, assets managed by financial services, including most financing receivables and equipment on operating leases, continue to be evaluated by market (agriculture and turf or construction and forestry). The credit quality analysis of retail notes, financing leases, and revolving charge accounts (collectively, customer receivables), was as follows in millions of dollars at May 2, 2021:

​ The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of the Company’s receivable portfolio. The Company measures expected credit losses on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Risk characteristics considered by the Company include finance product category, market, geography, credit risk, and remaining duration. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics with other receivables in the portfolio are evaluated on an individual basis. Non-performing financing receivables are included in the estimate of expected credit losses. The Company utilizes loss forecast models, which are selected based on the size and credit risk of the underlying pool of receivables, to estimate expected credit losses. Transition matrix models are used for large and complex customer receivable pools, while weighted average remaining maturity models are used for smaller and less complex customer receivable pools. Expected credit losses on wholesale receivables are based on historical loss rates, adjusted for current economic conditions. The modeled expected credit losses are adjusted based on reasonable and supportable forecasts, which may include economic indicators such as commodity prices, industry equipment sales, unemployment rates, and housing starts. Management reviews each model’s output quarterly, and qualitative adjustments are incorporated as necessary. ​ An analysis of the allowance for credit losses and investment in financing receivables follows in millions of dollars during the periods:

​ The allowance for credit losses on financing receivables decreased $33 million in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to lower expected losses on retail notes and financing leases in the construction and forestry market and better than expected performance of accounts granted payment relief due to the economic effects of COVID. The allowance for credit losses on revolving charge accounts also decreased in the second quarter of 2021, reflecting strong payment performance due to continued improvement in the agricultural market. For the first six months of 2021, the allowance for credit losses on financing receivables decreased slightly, as the reductions noted above were largely offset by the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-13. A troubled debt restructuring is generally the modification of debt in which a creditor grants a concession it would not otherwise consider to a debtor that is experiencing financial difficulties. These modifications may include a reduction of the stated interest rate, an extension of the maturity date, a reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt, or a reduction of accrued interest. During the first six months of 2021, the Company identified 199 receivable contracts, primarily retail notes, as troubled debt restructurings with aggregate balances of $8 million pre-modification and $7 million post-modification. During the first six months of 2020, there were 259 receivable contracts, primarily wholesale receivables in Argentina, identified as troubled debt restructurings with aggregate balances of $94 million pre-modification and $83 million post-modification. The short-term payment relief related to COVID, mentioned earlier, did not meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring. During these same periods, there were no significant troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted and were written off. At May 3, 2021, the Company had no commitments to lend to borrowers whose accounts were modified in troubled debt restructurings.
