Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 CNH Industrial recognized total share-based compensation expense of $38 million, $33 million, and $35 million respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, CNH Industrial recognized a total tax benefit relating to share-based compensation expense of $4 million, $3 million and $3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, CNH Industrial had unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to non-vested awards of approximately $128 million based on current assumptions related to achievement of specified performance objectives, when applicable. Unrecognized share-based compensation costs will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years. CNH Industrial’s equity awards are governed by the CNH Industrial N.V. Equity Incentive Plan (“CNH Industrial EIP”) and CNH Industrial N.V. Directors’ Compensation Plan (“CNH Industrial DCP”). At the AGM held on April 16, 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of the CNH Industrial EIP, an umbrella program defining the terms and conditions for any subsequent long-term incentive program. The EIP allows grants of the following specific types of equity awards to any current or prospective executive director, officer, employee of, or service provider to, CNH Industrial: stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted share units, restricted stock, performance shares or performance share units and other stock-based awards that are payable in cash, common shares or any combination thereof subject to the terms and conditions established by the Compensation Committee. In February 2020, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of up to 50 million common shares under the EIP. At the AGM on April 16, 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the issuance of up to 7 million common shares to executive directors under the 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (described below) in accordance with and under the EIP. Performance Share Units 2017-2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan In December 2017, CNH Industrial canceled all Performance Share Units ("PSU’s") issued in 2014, 2015 and 2016 and issued a grant of PSU's to key executive officers and select employees, with financial performance goals covering the three-year period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019. The performance goal was a market condition with a payout schedule ranging from 0% to 130%. In 2018 and 2019, prorated share amounts covering performance through this same period were issued to select new employees entering the plan. In 2018 and 2019, 0.6 million and 0.4 million additional PSU's were granted. On February 28, 2020 all PSU’s associated with these grants failed to meet their performance goals and were therefore forfeited. The Company still incurred the expense associated with these awards but the awards themselves were never issued to their recipients. 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan In February 2020, the Board of Directors approved the 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan under the EIP. In December 2020, CNH Industrial issued a new grant of PSUs to its key executive officers and select employees with the financial performance goals covering a three-year period culminating with a cliff vest date of February 28, 2024. Two internal financial metrics, Industrial ROIC (the ratio of Adjusted EBIT (after-tax) over Average Industrial Invested Capital) and Adjusted EPS (the net income (loss) excluding any nonrecurring items (after-tax), divided by the weighted average outstanding number of common shares on a fully diluted basis), weighted 50% each, and a multiplier-based on CNH Industrial’s percentile ranking of Total Shareholder Return among a comparator group, will determine the total PSUs earned. The internal financial metrics have a payout factor of up to 200% and the market based TSR determinant has a payout factor of 125%. These metrics are considered performance vesting conditions. As such, compensation cost will be accrued based on whether it is considered probable that the performance conditions will be satisfied. As of December 31, 2020, CNH Industrial issued 7 million PSUs. The total number of shares that will eventually be issued may vary from the original estimate due to forfeiture or the level of achievement of the performance goals. The fair value of the December 2020 PSU award group was calculated by using the CNH Industrial N.V. stock price on the grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that would not be received during the vesting period. The weighted average fair value of the awards that were issued in 2020 is $10.83 per share. The December 2020 PSU awards were issued on December 4, 2020 to key executive officers and select employees and on December 14, 2020 to the Chair of CNH Industrial. The following table reflects the activity of PSUs under the 2017-2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan and 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan for the year ended December 31, 2020:

Restricted Share Units In 2018, 2019, and 2020, CNH Industrial issued approximately 1 million, 0.8 million, and 8 million Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) to key executive officers and select employees with a weighted average fair value of $11.63, $9.95, and $10.90 per share, respectively. The fair value of the award is measured using the CNH Industrial N.V. stock price on the grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that employees will not receive during the vesting period. The RSUs vest upon a time-based service requirement. 2017-2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan RSU awards issued on December 22, 2017 to key executive officers and select employees vested in three equal installments over a three-year period ended June 30, 2020. On September 17, 2018, CNH Industrial issued 500 thousand RSUs to the then CEO of CNH Industrial. The weighted average fair value of these shares was $11.63 per share, measured using the stock price on the grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that would not be received during the vesting period. In connection with the CEO's resignation, in March 2020, the Compensation Committee accelerated the vesting of 69.5 thousand RSUs. The remaining 12.6 thousand RSUs were forfeited. On January 15, 2019 CNH Industrial issued 20 thousand restricted share units to the Chair of CNH Industrial. The weighted average fair value of these shares was $9.69 per share measured using the stock price on the grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that would not be received during the vesting period. These shares vested in two equal installments on June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2020. On April 3, 2019, 536 thousand RSUs were issued to select key executive officers with a weighted average fair value of $10.18 measured using the stock price on the grant date adjusted for the present value of future dividends that would not be received during the vesting period. The grant had a cliff vest date of February 1, 2021 for all awards except for 32 thousand RSUs, which vested on June 30, 2020. Of the remaining 490 thousand RSUs, 162 thousand were forfeited in the second quarter of 2020. The remaining 296 thousand RSUs vested on February 1, 2021. 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan On December 4, 2020, CNH Industrial issued two separate RSU grants to key executive officers and select employees. Under the first RSU grant, 1.7 million RSUs were awarded to select employees with a weighted average fair value of $11.43. These awards vested on December 31, 2020. Under the second RSU grant, 5 million RSUs were awarded to select employees and are set to vest in three equal installments over a three year period. The first tranche which consisted of 1.7 million RSUs is set to vest on February 28, 2022. The second and third tranches are set to vest on February 28, 2023 and February 28, 2024, respectively. The weighted average fair value for the December 2020 three tranche award group are $11.23, $11.02, and $10.82, respectively. On December 14, 2020, CNH Industrial issued 120 thousand RSUs to the Chair of CNH Industrial, of which 17 thousand vested on December 31, 2020. The weighted average fair value for these awards is $10.96. The remaining 103 thousand RSUs vest in three equal installments on February 28, 2022, 2023, and 2024, respectively. The fair value for these awards are $10.76, $10.55 and $10.35, respectively. The following table reflects the activity of RSUs under the 2017-2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan and 2021-2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan for the year ended December 31, 2020:

CNH Industrial N.V. Directors’ Compensation Plan (“CNH Industrial DCP”) On September 9, 2013, the CNH Industrial DCP was approved by the shareholders and adopted by the Board of Directors of CNH Industrial. On April 14, 2017, shareholders approved a proposed amendment to the CNH Industrial DCP pursuant to which non-executive directors would only be paid cash compensation for their service as a director. The CNH Industrial DCP provides for the payment of the following to eligible members of the CNH Industrial Board in the form of cash, provided that such members do not receive salary or other employment compensation from CNH Industrial or FCA and their subsidiaries and affiliates: •$125,000 annual retainer fee for each Non-Executive Director. •An additional $25,000 for each member of the Audit Committee and $35,000 for the Audit Committee Chairperson. •An additional $20,000 for each member of every other Board committee and $25,000 for the committee chairperson (collectively, the “fees”). Prior to the amendment of the CNH Industrial DCP, each quarter of the CNH Industrial DCP year, the eligible directors could elect to receive cash, common shares or stock options. There were 0.2 million common shares authorized for issuance under the CNH Industrial DCP. No stock options were issued under this plan in 2020 or 2019 and as of December 31, 2020, no stock options were outstanding under the CNH Industrial DCP.
