NOTE 6. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES

We maintain a $425.0 million Receivables Financing Agreement (Receivables Financing Agreement) that is scheduled to mature on October 14, 2025. Under the Receivables Financing Agreement, our eligible trade receivables are used for collateralized borrowings and continue to be serviced by us. In addition, the Receivables Financing Agreement incorporates the net leverage ratio covenant that is contained in the $1,550.0 million Senior Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, we had $298.8 million, $328.5 million and $234.8 million, respectively, drawn under the agreement. As of June 30, 2024, $429.8 million of our trade receivables were pledged as collateral and we had $0.5 million additional borrowing capacity under the Receivables Financing Agreement, which was limited by our borrowing base.

Olin also has trade accounts receivable factoring arrangements (AR Facilities) and pursuant to the terms of the AR Facilities, certain of our domestic subsidiaries may sell their accounts receivable up to a maximum of $175.5 million and certain of our foreign subsidiaries may sell their accounts receivable up to a maximum of €22.0 million. We will continue to service the outstanding accounts sold. These receivables qualify for sales treatment under ASC 860 “Transfers and Servicing” and, accordingly, the proceeds are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the condensed statements of cash flows.

The following table summarizes the AR Facilities activity:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023
AR Facilities	($ in millions)
Balance at beginning of year	$	63.3	$	111.8
Gross receivables sold	375.0		532.6
Payments received from customers on sold accounts	(376.9)		(567.2)
Balance at end of period	$	61.4	$	77.2

The factoring discount paid under the AR Facilities is recorded as interest expense on the condensed statements of operations. The factoring discount was $1.1 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2.1 million and $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The agreements are without recourse and therefore no recourse liability had been recorded as of June 30, 2024.

Our condensed balance sheets included an allowance for doubtful accounts receivables of $12.6 million, $13.1 million and $13.0 million and other receivables of $91.1 million, $85.3 million and $81.7 million at June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively, which were included in receivables, net.
