Supply Chain Financing Programs

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2025

We facilitate voluntary supply chain financing programs to provide some of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us (our accounts payables) to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. These programs are administered by participating financial institutions. When a supplier utilizes the supply chain financing programs, the supplier receives a payment from the financial institution in advance of our agreed payment terms, net of a discount charged. Our responsibility is limited to making payments to the respective financial institutions on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier. No assets are pledged as collateral by the Company or any of our subsidiaries under the programs. Most suppliers using the programs are on 120-day payment terms after the end of the month in which the invoice was issued. We monitor our days payable outstanding relative to our peers and industry trends in order to assess our conclusion that the programs continue to be trade payable programs and are not indicative of borrowing arrangements. The liabilities continue to be presented as Accounts payable in our Consolidated Balance Sheets until they are paid, and they are reflected as Cash flows from operating activities when settled.
