Investments [Abstract] |
Investments | 4. Investments Investments as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows:
|  | June 30, 2024 |  | December 31, 2023
Equity investments |  | $ | 32 |  |  | $ | 27 |
Equity method investments |  | 91 |  |  | 112 |
Marketable securities |  | 4 |  |  | 4 |
Total investments |  | $ | 127 |  |  | $ | 143 |
Our investments classified as equity investments do not have readily determinable fair values. Beginning on the dates we entered into the agreements for equity method investments, our share of income from these investments is included within Other operating (income) expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded $18 million in Restructuring/impairment charges in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, which represented an other-than-temporary impairment on our equity method investments. Argentina Joint Venture On February 12, 2021, we entered into an agreement with an affiliate of Grupo Arcor, an Argentine food company, to establish Ingrear Holding S.A. (the “Argentina joint venture”), a joint venture to sell value-added ingredients to customers in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. Ingredion and Grupo Arcor have completed all closing conditions, pending customary antitrust review, to combine the manufacturing facilities, finalize the transaction and formally establish the Argentina joint venture, which is managed by a jointly appointed team of executives. The Argentina joint venture is accounted for on the equity method of accounting, and we recognize our share of income or expense in Other operating expense one month in arrears due to the timing of when results are available. On December 13, 2023, the new Argentine government allowed the Argentine peso to devalue from the exchange rate of approximately 366 pesos to one U.S. dollar, to 800 pesos to one U.S. dollar. As we recognize our share of earnings one month in arrears, the loss from the change in value of the peso in December 2023 was recorded in Other operating expense during the first quarter of 2024.
