IRVING, Texas – Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) today announced fourth-quarter and full-year results for 2022.

Sales and revenues for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $16.6 billion, a 20% increase compared with $13.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. Fourth-quarter 2022 profit per share was $2.79, compared with $3.91 profit per share in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted profit per share in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $3.86, compared with fourth-quarter 2021 adjusted profit per share of $2.69. Profit per share in the fourth quarter of 2022 included an unfavorable ME&T foreign currency impact in other income (expense) of $0.41 per share mostly related to balance sheet translation, compared with a favorable impact of $0.01 per share in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Full-year sales and revenues in 2022 were $59.4 billion, up 17% compared with $51.0 billion in 2021. The increase reflected favorable price realization and higher sales volume, driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories, increased services and higher sales of equipment to end users. Dealers increased their inventories $2.4 billion in 2022, while remaining about flat in 2021. Full-year profit was $12.64 per share in 2022, compared with profit of $11.83 per share in 2021. Adjusted profit per share in 2022 was $13.84, compared with adjusted profit per share of $10.81 in 2021.

“Our global team delivered one of the best years in our nearly 100-year history, including record full-year adjusted profit per share,” said Caterpillar Chairman and CEO, Jim Umpleby. “Despite supply chain challenges, the team achieved double-digit top-line growth and generated strong ME&T free cash flow. We remain committed to serving our customers, executing our strategy and investing for long-term profitable growth.”

In 2022, adjusted profit per share excluded a goodwill impairment charge and restructuring costs related to the Rail division, mark-to-market gains for remeasurement of pension and other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plans and other restructuring costs. In 2021, adjusted profit per share excluded mark-to-market gains for remeasurement of pension and OPEB plans and restructuring costs. Please see a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the appendix on page 14.

For the full year of 2022, enterprise operating cash flow was $7.8 billion. During the year, the company repurchased $4.2 billion of Caterpillar common stock and paid dividends of $2.4 billion. Liquidity remained strong with an enterprise cash balance of $7.0 billion at the end of 2022.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Consolidated Sales and Revenues

The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated sales and revenues between the fourth quarter of 2021 (at left) and the fourth quarter of 2022 (at right). Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company’s Board of Directors and employees.

Total sales and revenues for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $16.597 billion, an increase of $2.799 billion, or 20%, compared with $13.798 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts primarily related to the euro, Japanese yen and Australian dollar. The increase in sales volume was driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories and higher sales of equipment to end users. Dealers increased inventories by $700 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to remaining about flat during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Sales were higher across the three primary segments.

Consolidated Operating Profit

The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated operating profit between the fourth quarter of 2021 (at left) and the fourth quarter of 2022 (at right). Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company’s Board of Directors and employees. The bar titled Other includes consolidating adjustments and Machinery, Energy & Transportation’s other operating (income) expenses.

Operating profit for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $1.680 billion, an increase of $69 million, or 4%, compared with $1.611 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, mostly offset by a goodwill impairment charge, higher manufacturing costs and restructuring expenses.

Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, unfavorable cost absorption and increased period manufacturing costs. Cost absorption was unfavorable as inventory decreased during the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with an increase during the fourth quarter of 2021.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the company took a goodwill impairment charge of $925 million and restructuring costs of $180 million related to the Rail division, both primarily non-cash items. The goodwill impairment charge is related to a lower outlook for the company’s locomotive offerings. The restructuring costs were primarily related to write-downs in the value of inventory.

Operating profit margin was 10.1% for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with 11.7% for the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted operating profit margin was 17.0% for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with 11.4% for the fourth quarter of 2021. Operating profit margin was 13.3% for 2022, compared with 13.5% for 2021. Adjusted operating profit margin was 15.4% for 2022, compared with 13.7% for 2021.

Other Profit/Loss and Tax Items

•Other income (expense) in the fourth quarter of 2022 was income of $536 million, compared with income of $1.063 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. The change was primarily driven by unfavorable impacts from foreign currency exchange and lower mark-to-market gains for remeasurement of pension and OPEB plans (see a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the appendix on page 14).

The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange resulted in a loss of $276 million for ME&T in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with a favorable impact of an $8 million gain in the fourth quarter of 2021. These losses were primarily driven by the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro, Chinese yuan and Japanese yen.

•The provision for income taxes for the fourth quarters of 2022 and 2021 reflected a global annual effective tax rate of approximately 23%, excluding the discrete items discussed below.

The provision for income taxes in fourth quarter of 2022 also included a $13 million charge for the change from the third-quarter estimated annual tax rate, compared to a $118 million benefit in the fourth quarter of 2021. The company recorded a tax charge of $124 million related to $606 million of pension and OPEB mark-to-market gains in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to a tax charge of $190 million related to $833 million of mark-to-market gains in the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition, the company recorded a tax benefit of $36 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 related to the goodwill impairment charge of $925 million. Finally, the company recorded a tax benefit of $15 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 for the settlement of stock-based compensation awards with associated tax deductions in excess of cumulative U.S. GAAP compensation expense and a $40 million tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2021 primarily related to recognition of U.S. capital losses.

Sales increased across all applications and inter-segment sales. The increase in sales was primarily due to higher sales volume and favorable price realization, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts related to the euro and British pound.

▪Oil and Gas – Sales increased for turbines and turbine-related services, reciprocating engines and aftermarket parts.

▪Power Generation – Sales increased in large reciprocating engines, primarily data center applications, and small reciprocating engines. Turbines and turbine-related services increased as well.

▪Industrial – Sales were up due to higher demand across all regions.

▪Transportation – Sales increased in marine applications, reciprocating engine aftermarket parts and rail services; these increases were partially offset by lower deliveries of locomotives.

Energy & Transportation’s profit was $1.177 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $492 million, or 72%, compared with $685 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume and favorable price realization, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs and higher SG&A/R&D expenses. Unfavorable manufacturing costs were mainly driven by higher material costs and increased period manufacturing costs. SG&A/R&D expenses increased primarily due to investments aligned with strategic initiatives.

Financial Products’ segment revenues were $853 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $77 million, or 10%, compared with $776 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher average financing rates across all regions.

Financial Products’ segment profit was $189 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $59 million, or 24%, compared with $248 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a higher provision for credit losses at Cat Financial and an unfavorable impact from equity securities in Insurance Services.

At the end of 2022, past dues at Cat Financial were 1.89%, compared with 1.95% at the end of 2021. Write-offs, net of recoveries, were $46 million for 2022, compared with $205 million for 2021. As of December 31, 2022, Cat Financial's allowance for credit losses totaled $346 million, or 1.29% of finance receivables, compared with $337 million, or 1.22% of finance receivables, at December 31, 2021.

Corporate Items and Eliminations

Expense for corporate items and eliminations was $1.592 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $1.274 billion from the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily driven by a goodwill impairment charge, higher restructuring costs and increased expenses due to timing differences.

APPENDIX

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The following definitions are provided for the non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures for other companies. Management does not intend these items to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures.

The company believes it is important to separately quantify the profit impact of three significant items in order for the company’s results to be meaningful to readers. These items consist of (i) goodwill impairment, (ii) restructuring income/costs and (iii) pension and OPEB mark-to-market gains/losses resulting from plan remeasurements. The company does not consider these items indicative of earnings from ongoing business activities and believes the non-GAAP measure provides investors with useful perspective on underlying business results and trends and aids with assessing the company’s period-over-period results.

Reconciliations of adjusted results to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are as follows:

Supplemental Consolidating Data

The company is providing supplemental consolidating data for the purpose of additional analysis. The data has been grouped as follows:

Consolidated – Caterpillar Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Machinery, Energy & Transportation (ME&T) – The company defines ME&T as it is presented in the supplemental data as Caterpillar Inc. and its subsidiaries, excluding Financial Products. ME&T’s information relates to the design, manufacturing and marketing of its products.

(more)

Financial Products – The company defines Financial Products as it is presented in the supplemental data as its finance and insurance subsidiaries, primarily Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation (Cat Financial) and Caterpillar Insurance Holdings Inc. (Insurance Services). Financial Products’ information relates to the financing to customers and dealers for the purchase and lease of Caterpillar and other equipment.

Consolidating Adjustments – Eliminations of transactions between ME&T and Financial Products.

The nature of the ME&T and Financial Products businesses is different, especially with regard to the financial position and cash flow items. Caterpillar management utilizes this presentation internally to highlight these differences. The company believes this presentation will assist readers in understanding its business.

EXHIBIT 99.2

Caterpillar Inc. (“Caterpillar”, “we” or “our”) is furnishing supplemental information concerning (i) retail sales of machines to end users and (ii) retail sales of power systems (including reciprocating and turbine engines and locomotives) to end users and Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”). Caterpillar sells the majority of its machinery and power systems to independently owned and operated dealers and OEMs to meet the demands of their customers, the end users. Caterpillar believes that this supplemental information may help readers better understand Caterpillar’s business and the industries it serves, particularly in light of the time delay between Caterpillar’s sales to dealers and dealers’ sales to end users.

In this report, we are providing information by geographic region for retail sales of machines in each of our Resource Industries and Construction Industries reportable segments, as well as information regarding retail sales of our machines globally. For our Energy & Transportation reportable segment, we are providing retail sales information by major end use.

The information presented in this report is primarily based on unaudited reports that are voluntarily provided to Caterpillar by its independent dealers and which are not subject to Caterpillar’s internal controls over financial reporting. Accordingly, the data collected from such third parties may not be accurate and/or complete. As such, the information presented in this report is intended solely to convey an approximate indication of the trends, direction and magnitude of retail sales and is not intended to be an estimate, approximation or prediction of, or substitute for, Caterpillar’s audited financial statements filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This information is furnished under this report with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Caterpillar does not undertake to update or adjust prior period information.
