In May 2021, the Brazilian Supreme Court (“Court”) issued its ruling related to the calculation of certain indirect taxes, which affirmed the Federal Court of Appeals (“Lower Court”) rulings that Ingredion had received in previous years and affirmed that Ingredion is entitled to previously recorded tax credits. The Court ruling ensured that Ingredion is entitled to $15 million of additional credits from the period of 2015 to 2018 that were previously unrecorded pending a final Court ruling. In the second quarter of 2021, Ingredion recorded the $15 million of additional credits within Other operating (income) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). As of March 31, 2022, Ingredion has $41 million of remaining indirect tax credits recorded in Other assets and Prepaid expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that result in deferred income taxes of $3 million. We will use the income tax offsets to eliminate our Brazilian federal tax payments in 2022 and future years, including the income tax payable for the indirect taxes recovered.
