Disaggregation of revenue
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers by geographical areas and major product categories. We have three major agricultural product categories: insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. Plant health, which includes biological products, is also included in the below table, because it is a growing part of our business. The disaggregated revenue tables are shown below for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

We earn revenue from the sale of a wide range of products to a diversified base of customers around the world. We develop, market and sell all three major classes of crop protection chemicals (insecticides, herbicides and fungicides) as well as biologicals, crop nutrition, and seed treatment, which we group as plant health. These products are used in agriculture to enhance crop yield and quality by controlling a broad spectrum of insects, weeds and disease, as well as in non-agricultural markets for pest control. The majority of our product lines consist of insecticides and herbicides, with a smaller portfolio of fungicides mainly used in high value crop segments. We are investing in plant health which includes our growing biological products. Our insecticides are used to control a wide spectrum of pests, while our herbicide portfolio primarily targets a large variety of difficult-to-control weeds. Products in the other category include various agricultural products such as smaller classes of pesticides, growth promoters, and other miscellaneous revenue sources.
Sale of Goods
Revenue from product sales is recognized when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring the promised goods to a customer, that is, when control of the good transfers to the customer. The customer is then invoiced at the agreed-upon price with payment terms generally ranging from 30 to 90 days, with some regions providing terms longer than 90 days. We do not typically give payment terms that exceed 360 days; however, in certain geographical regions such as Latin America, these terms may be given in limited circumstances. Additionally, a timing difference of over one year can exist between when products are delivered to the customer and when payment is received from the customer in these regions; however, the effect of these sales is not material to the financial statements as a whole. Furthermore, we have assessed the circumstances and arrangements in these regions and determined that the contracts with these customers do not contain a significant financing component.
In determining when the control of goods is transferred, we typically assess, among other things, the transfer of risk and title and the shipping terms of the contract. The transfer of title and risk typically occurs either upon shipment to the customer or upon receipt by the customer. As such, we typically recognize revenue when goods are shipped based on the relevant Incoterm for the product order, or in some regions, when delivery to the customer’s requested destination has occurred. When we perform shipping and handling activities after the transfer of control to the customer (e.g., when control transfers prior to delivery), they are considered as fulfillment activities, and accordingly, the costs are accrued for when the related revenue is recognized. For FOB shipping point terms, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment since the customer gains control at this point in time.
We record amounts billed for shipping and handling fees as revenue. Costs incurred for shipping and handling are recorded as costs of sales and services. Amounts billed for sales and use taxes, value-added taxes, and certain excise and other specific
11
FMC CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) — (Continued)
transactional taxes imposed on revenue-producing transactions are presented on a net basis and excluded from sales in the consolidated income statements. We record a liability until remitted to the respective taxing authority.
Sales Incentives and Other Variable Considerations
As a part of our customary business practice, we offer a number of sales incentives to our customers including volume discounts, retailer incentives, and prepayment options. The variable considerations given can differ by products, support levels and other eligibility criteria. For all such contracts that include any variable consideration, we estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in our judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. Although determining the transaction price for these considerations requires significant judgment, we have significant historical experience with incentives provided to customers and estimate the expected consideration considering historical patterns of incentive payouts. These estimates are reassessed each reporting period as required.
In addition to the variable considerations described above, in certain instances, we may require our customers to meet certain volume thresholds within their contract term. We estimate what amount of variable consideration should be included in the transaction price at contract inception and continually reassess this estimation each reporting period to determine situations when the minimum volume thresholds will not be met.
Right of Return
We extend an assurance warranty offering customers a right of refund or exchange in case delivered product does not conform to specifications. Additionally, in certain regions and arrangements, we may offer a right of return for a specified period. Both instances are accounted for as a right of return and transaction price is adjusted for an estimate of expected returns. Replacement products are accounted for under the warranty guidance if the customer exchanges one product for another of the same kind, quality, and price. We have significant experience with historical return patterns and use this experience to include returns in the estimate of transaction price.
Contract Asset and Contract Liability Balances
We satisfy our obligations by transferring goods and services in exchange for consideration from customers. The timing of performance sometimes differs from the timing the associated consideration is received from the customer, thus resulting in the recognition of a contract asset or contract liability. We recognize a contract liability if the customer's payment of consideration is received prior to completion of our related performance obligation.
The following table presents the opening and closing balances of our receivables, net of allowances and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:

Receivables from contracts with customers, net of allowances (1) | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||||
| Contract liabilities: Advance Payments from customers | ( | ||||||||||||||||
The balance of receivables from contracts with customers listed in the table above include both current trade receivables and long-term receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for receivables represents our best estimate of the probable losses associated with potential customer defaults. We determine the allowance based on historical experience, current collection trends, and external business factors such as economic factors, including regional bankruptcy rates, and political factors. The change in allowance for doubtful accounts for both current trade receivables and long-term receivables is representative of the impairment of receivables as of June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 6 for further information.
The amount of revenue recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2022 that was included in the opening contract liability balance is $628.9 million.

Manufacturing and Seed Supply Agreements
As part of the DuPont Crop Protection Business Acquisition in 2017, we acquired various manufacturing contracts. The manufacturing contracts have been recognized as an asset or liability to the extent the terms of the contract were favorable or unfavorable compared with market terms of the same or similar items at the date of the acquisition.
We also entered into supply agreements with DuPont, with terms of up to five years , to supply technical insecticide products required for their retained seed treatment business at cost. The unfavorable liability is recorded within "Accrued and other liabilities" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is reduced and recognized to revenues within earnings as sales are made. The amount recognized in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $54 million and $51 million, and $27 million and $26 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

We have non-current receivables that represent long-term customer receivable balances related to past due accounts which are not expected to be collected within the current year. The net long-term customer receivables were $68.4 million as of June 30, 2022. These long-term customer receivable balances and the corresponding allowance are included in "Other assets including long-term receivables, net" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
A portion of these long-term receivables have payment contracts. We have no reason to believe payments will not be made based upon the credit quality of these customers. Additionally, we also hold significant collateral against these customers including rights to property or other assets as a form of credit guarantee. If the customer does not pay or gives indication that they will not pay, these guarantees allow us to start legal action to block the sale of the customer’s harvest. On an ongoing basis, we continue to evaluate the credit quality of our non-current receivables using aging of receivables, collection experience and write-offs, as well as evaluating existing economic conditions, to determine if an additional allowance is necessary.
The following table displays a roll forward of the allowance for credit losses related to long-term customer receivables:

(2)Primarily represents asset write-offs (recoveries) and accelerated depreciation on long-lived assets, which were or are to be abandoned. To the extent incurred, the acceleration effect of re-estimating settlement dates and revised cost estimates associated with asset retirement obligations due to facility shutdowns, are also included within the asset disposal charges. The amount for the six months ended June 30, 2022 represents fixed asset charges resulting from the closure of certain manufacturing sites during the period.
(3)Restructuring charges related to DuPont Crop restructuring during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 represent the remaining in-flight restructuring charges as we completed the established DuPont Crop Restructuring program associated with integration. These charges are primarily associated with accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets, severance, and other costs as we exit certain facilities.
(4)Beginning in the second quarter of 2021, we began to consolidate our global operations into centralized regional headquarters within EMEA and APAC. The regional realignment restructuring charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 are primarily related to severance and other exit costs resulting from this consolidation.

Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Amendments
On June 17, 2022, we amended our Revolving Credit Facility and on June 27, 2022 we amended our 2021 Term Loan Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility Amendment primarily increased the borrowing capacity from $1.5 billion to $2 billion and extended the maturity date by an additional year to 2027. Both agreements were amended to transition from a reference rate using the LIBOR benchmark to a reference rate using a Term SOFR benchmark.
Deferred financing fees totaling $1.5 million associated with both amendments have been deferred and are being recognized to interest expense over the life of the agreements.
Covenants
Among other restrictions, our Revolving Credit Facility and 2021 Term Loan Facility contain financial covenants applicable to FMC and its consolidated subsidiaries related to leverage (measured as the ratio of debt to adjusted earnings) and interest coverage (measured as the ratio of adjusted earnings to interest expense). Our actual leverage for the four consecutive quarters ended June 30, 2022 was 2.87 , which is below the maximum leverage of 3.50 at June 30, 2022. As amended pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement discussed within our 2021 Form 10-K, the maximum leverage ratio stepped down to 3.50 for the period ending December 31, 2021 and future quarters thereafter. Our actual interest coverage for the four consecutive quarters ended June 30, 2022 was 10.27 , which is above the minimum interest coverage of 3.50 . We were in compliance with all covenants at June 30, 2022.

(2)These amounts are included in "Environmental liabilities, continuing and discontinued" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(3)These recorded recoveries represent probable realization of claims against U.S. government agencies and are recorded as an offset to our environmental reserves in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The estimated reasonably possible environmental loss contingencies, net of expected recoveries, exceed amounts accrued by approximately $160 million at June 30, 2022. This reasonably possible estimate is based upon information available as of the date of the filing but the actual future losses may be higher given the uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, enforcement policies, the impact of potentially responsible parties, technology and information related to individual sites.

Potential environmental obligations that have not been reserved may be material to any one quarter's or year's results of operations in the future. However, we believe any such liability arising from such potential environmental obligations is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity or financial condition as it may be satisfied over many years.

Note 13: Earnings Per Share
Earnings per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period on a basic and diluted basis.
Our potentially dilutive securities include potential common shares related to our stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units. Diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS") considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss from continuing operations because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have an antidilutive effect. Diluted EPS excludes the impact of potential common shares related to our stock options in periods in which the option exercise price is greater than the average market price of our common stock for the period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 there were 0.4 million and 0.4 million potential common shares excluded from Diluted EPS,
21

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) — (Continued)
respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 there were 0.2 million and 0.2 million potential common shares excluded from Diluted EPS, respectively.
Our non-vested restricted stock awards contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends, and thus, are participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing EPS. The two-class method determines EPS by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common stockholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. In calculating the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
Earnings applicable to common stock and common stock shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

Dividends and Share Repurchases
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, we paid dividends of $133.7 million and $124.3 million, respectively. On July 21, 2022, we paid dividends totaling $66.9 million to our shareholders of record as of June 30, 2022. This amount is included in "Accrued and other liabilities" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022.
In February 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1 billion of the Company's common stock. The $1 billion share repurchase program is replacing the previous authorization in its entirety. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, no shares were repurchased under the publicly announced repurchase program. At June 30, 2022, $1.0 billion remained unused under our Board-authorized repurchase program. This repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price targets and may be suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. We also reacquire shares from time to time from employees in connection with the vesting, exercise and forfeiture of awards under our equity compensation plans.
Note 15: Leases
We lease office space, vehicles and other equipment under non-cancellable leases with initial terms typically ranging from to 20 years, with some leases having terms greater than 20 years. Our lease portfolio includes agreements with renewal options, purchase options and clauses for early termination based on the terms specific to the agreement.
At contract inception, we review the facts and circumstances of the arrangement to determine if the contract is a lease. We follow the guidance in ASC 842-10-15 and consider the following: whether the contract has an identified asset; if we have the right to obtain substantially all economic benefits from the asset; and if we have the right to direct the use of the underlying asset. When determining if a contract has an identified asset, we consider both explicit and implicit assets, and whether the supplier has the right to substitute the asset. When determining if we have the right to obtain substantially all economic benefits from the asset, we consider the primary outputs of the identified asset throughout the period of use and determine if we receive greater than 90 percent of those benefits. When determining if we have the right to direct the use of an underlying asset, we consider if we have the right to direct how and for what purpose the asset is used throughout the period of use and if we control the decision-making rights over the asset. All leased assets are classified as operating or finance under ASC 842. The lease term is determined as the non-cancellable period of the lease, together with all of the following: periods covered by an option to extend the lease which are reasonably certain to be exercised, periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option, and periods covered by an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease in which exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor. At commencement, we assess whether any options included in the lease are reasonably certain to be exercised by considering all relevant economic factors including, contract-based, asset-based, market-based, and company-based factors.
To determine the present value of future minimum lease payments, we use the implicit rate when readily determinable or our incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date. When determining our incremental borrowing rate, we consider our centralized treasury function and our current credit profile. We then make adjustments to this rate for securitization, the length of the lease term, and leases denominated in foreign currencies. Minimum lease payments are expensed over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis. Some leases may require additional contingent or variable lease payments based on factors specific to the individual agreement. Variable lease payments for which we are typically responsible for include payment of vehicle insurance, real estate taxes, and maintenance expenses.
Most leases within our portfolio are classified as operating leases under the standard. Operating leases are included in "Other assets including long-term receivables, net", "Accrued and other liabilities", and "Other long-term liabilities" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets are subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of any lease incentives received. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating leases relate to office spaces, IT equipment, transportation equipment, machinery equipment, furniture and fixtures, and plant and facilities under non-cancellable lease agreements. Leases primarily have fixed rental periods, with many of the real estate leases requiring additional payments for property taxes and occupancy-related costs. Leases for real estate typically have initial terms ranging from to 20 years, with some leases having terms greater than 20 years. Leases for non-real estate (transportation, IT) typically have initial terms ranging from to 10 years. We have elected not to record short-term leases on

the balance sheet whose term is 12 months or less and does not include a purchase option or extension that is reasonably certain to be exercised.
We rent or sublease a small number of assets including equipment and office space to third party companies. These third-party arrangements include a small number of TSA arrangements from recent acquisitions. Rental income from all subleases is not material to our business.

Note 17: Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rates from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were 27.8 percent and 20.8 percent, respectively. Our effective income tax rates from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were 13.8 percent and 13.3 percent, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily driven by our decision to cease operations and business in Russia during the second quarter of 2022. As a result, we recorded a pre-tax charge of $76.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 with minimal tax benefit. Refer to Note 9 for additional information. Also increasing the effective tax rate were certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that became effective in 2022, and geographic earnings mix.
We determine our interim tax provision using an Estimated Annual Effective Tax Rate methodology ("EAETR") in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The EAETR is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income, exclusive of discrete items. The tax effects of discrete items are then included to arrive at the total reported interim tax provision. The determination of the EAETR is based upon a number of estimates, including the estimated annual pretax ordinary income in each tax jurisdiction in which we operate. As our projections of ordinary income change throughout the year, the EAETR will change period-to-period. A significant

Note 18: Financial Instruments, Risk Management and Fair Value Measurements
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other current assets, certain receivables classified as other long-term assets, accounts payable, and amounts included in investments and accruals meeting the definition of financial instruments. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value. Our other financial instruments include the following:
| Financial Instrument | Valuation Method | |||||||
| Foreign exchange forward contracts | Estimated amounts that would be received or paid to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on current market prices for applicable currencies. | |||||||
| Commodity forward contracts | Estimated amounts that would be received or paid to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on quoted market prices for applicable commodities. | |||||||
| Debt | Our estimates and information obtained from independent third parties using market data, such as bid/ask spreads for the last business day of the reporting period. | |||||||
The estimated fair value of the financial instruments in the above table have been determined using standard pricing models which take into account the present value of expected future cash flows discounted to the balance sheet date. These standard pricing models utilize inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves and currency and commodity spot and forward rates. In addition, we test a subset of our valuations against valuations received from the transaction's counterparty to validate the accuracy of our standard pricing models. Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts that we would realize in a market exchange at settlement date and do not represent potential gains or losses on these agreements. The estimated fair values of foreign exchange forward contracts and commodity forward contracts are included in the tables within this Note. The estimated fair value of debt is $3,797.5 million and $3,409.8 million and the carrying amount is $3,886.8 million and $3,172.5 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
We enter into various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk as part of the normal course of business. These off-balance sheet instruments include financial guarantees and contractual commitments to extend financial guarantees under letters of credit, and other assistance to customers. See Note 19 for more information. Decisions to extend financial guarantees to customers and the amount of collateral required under these guarantees are based on our evaluation of creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
Use of Derivative Financial Instruments to Manage Risk
We mitigate certain financial exposures, including currency risk, commodity purchase exposures and interest rate risk, through a program of risk management that includes the use of derivative financial instruments. We enter into derivative contracts, including forward contracts and purchased options, to reduce the effects of fluctuating currency exchange rates, interest rates, and commodity prices. A detailed description of these risks including a discussion on the concentration of credit risk is provided in Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements on our 2021 Form 10-K.
We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes relating derivatives that are designated as fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. We also assess, both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether each derivative is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item. If we determine that a derivative is not
28
FMC CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) — (Continued)
highly effective as a hedge, or if a derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting with respect to that derivative prospectively.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Cash Flow Hedges
We recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. On the date the derivative instrument is entered into, we generally designate the derivative as a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a forecasted transaction (cash flow hedge). We record in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as and meet all the required criteria for a cash flow hedge. We then reclassify these amounts into earnings as the underlying hedged item affects earnings. In contrast, we immediately record in earnings changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not designated as cash flow hedges.
As of June 30, 2022, we had open foreign currency forward contracts in AOCI in a net after tax loss position of $15.1 million designated as cash flow hedges of underlying forecasted sales and purchases. Current open contracts hedge forecasted transactions until December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2022, we had open forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges with various expiration dates to buy, sell or exchange foreign currencies with a U.S. dollar equivalent of approximately $1,808.2 million.
As of June 30, 2022, we had open interest rate contracts in AOCI in a net after tax gain position of $14.0 million designated as cash flow hedges of the anticipated fixed rate coupon of debt forecasted to be issued within a designated window. At June 30, 2022, we had interest rate swap contracts outstanding with a total aggregate notional value of approximately $200.0 million.
As of June 30, 2022, we had no open commodity contracts in AOCI designated as cash flow hedges of underlying forecasted purchases. At June 30, 2022, we had no mmBTUs (millions of British Thermal Units) in aggregate notional volume of outstanding natural gas commodity forward contracts to hedge forecasted purchases.
Approximately $14.6 million of the net losses after-tax, representing open foreign currency exchange and interest rate contracts, will be realized in earnings during the twelve months ending June 30, 2023 if spot rates in the future are consistent with forward rates as of June 30, 2022. The actual effect on earnings will be dependent on the actual spot rates when the forecasted transactions occur.
Derivatives Not Designated As Hedging Instruments
We had open forward contracts not designated as cash flow hedging instruments for accounting purposes with various expiration dates to buy, sell or exchange foreign currencies with a U.S. dollar equivalent of approximately $3,373.3 million at June 30, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers or sellers in the principle or most advantageous market for the asset or liability that are independent of the reporting entity, knowledgeable and able and willing to transact for the asset or liability.

Note 19: Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies
We continue to monitor the conditions that are subject to guarantees and indemnifications to identify whether a liability must be recognized in our financial statements.
Guarantees and Other Commitments
The following table provides the estimated undiscounted amount of potential future payments for each major group of guarantees at June 30, 2022. These guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers and non-consolidated affiliates. Non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation requiring us to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. Based on our experience, these types of guarantees have not had a material effect on our consolidated financial position or on our liquidity. Our expectation is that future payment or performance related to the non-performance of others is considered unlikely.

(2)These guarantees represent support provided to third-party banks for credit extended to various customers and non-consolidated affiliates. The liability for the guarantees is recorded at an amount that approximates fair value (i.e. representing the stand-ready obligation) based on our historical collection experience and a current assessment of credit exposure. We believe the fair value of these guarantees is immaterial. The majority of these guarantees have an expiration date of less than one year .
Excluded from the chart above are parent-company guarantees we provide to lending institutions that extend credit to our foreign subsidiaries. Since these guarantees are provided for consolidated subsidiaries, the consolidated financial position is not affected by the issuance of these guarantees. Also excluded from the chart, in connection with our property and asset sales and divestitures, we have agreed to indemnify the buyer for certain liabilities, including environmental contamination and taxes that occurred prior to the date of sale or provided guarantees to third parties relating to certain contracts assumed by the buyer. Our indemnification or guarantee obligations with respect to certain liabilities may be indefinite as to duration and may or may not be subject to a deductible, minimum claim amount or cap. As such, it is not possible for us to predict the likelihood that a claim will be made or to make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential loss or range of loss. If triggered, we may be able to recover some of the indemnity payments from third parties. Therefore, we have not recorded any specific liabilities for these guarantees. For certain obligations related to our divestitures for which we can make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential loss or range of loss and is probable, a liability in those instances has been recorded.
Contingencies
A detailed discussion related to our outstanding contingencies can be found in Note 20 to our consolidated financial statements included within our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no significant updates since the information included in our 2021 Form 10-K other than the updates provided below.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Item 2 of this report contains certain forward-looking statements that are based on our current views and assumptions regarding future events, future business conditions and the outlook for our company based on currently available information.
Whenever possible, we have identified these forward-looking statements by such words or phrases as "will likely result," "is confident that," "expect," "expects," "should," "could," "may," "will continue to," "believe," "believes," "anticipates," "predicts," "forecasts," "estimates," "projects," "potential," "intends" or similar expressions identifying "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including the negative of those words or phrases. Such forward-looking statements are based on our current views and assumptions regarding future events, future business conditions and the outlook for the company based on currently available information. The forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from any results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. With respect to forward-looking statements made in connection with our acquisition of BioPhero ApS, such factors include that (1) BioPhero is still in its early stages of development or growth and it may be affected by risks inherent in operating a business of its nature., and (2) that the products and technologies of BioPhero have not yet been implemented at large commercial scale, and thus our statements regarding the future, including potential revenue opportunities, are subject to uncertainties related to development, registration, production and commercialization of pheromones through use of the BioPhero production technology. In addition to the continued uncertainty generated by the ongoing COVID pandemic on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance, additional factors include, among other things, the risk factors included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "2021 Form 10-K"), the section captioned "Forward-Looking Information" in Part II of the 2021 Form 10-K and to similar risk factors and cautionary statements in all other reports and forms filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of these factors as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of COVID. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
We specifically decline to undertake any obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statements that have been made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have described our accounting policies in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2021 Form 10-K. We have reviewed these accounting policies, identifying those that we believe to be critical to the preparation and understanding of our consolidated financial statements. We have reviewed these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Critical accounting policies are central to our presentation of results of operations and financial condition and require management to make estimates and judgments on certain matters. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current conditions and other reasonable factors.
The following is a list of those accounting policies that we have deemed most critical to the presentation and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. See the "Critical Accounting Policies" section in our 2021 Form 10-K for a detailed description of these policies and their potential effects on our results of operations and financial condition.
•Revenue recognition and trade receivables
•Environmental obligations and related recoveries
•Impairment and valuation of long-lived assets and indefinite-lived assets
•Pensions and other postretirement benefits
•Income taxes

OVERVIEW
We are an agricultural sciences company, providing innovative solutions to growers around the world with a robust product portfolio fueled by a market-driven discovery and development pipeline in crop protection, crop enhancement, and professional pest and turf management. We operate in a single distinct business segment. We develop, market and sell all three major classes
34
of crop protection chemicals (insecticides, herbicides and fungicides) as well as biologicals, crop nutrition, and seed treatment, which we group as plant health. These products are used in agriculture to enhance crop yield and quality by controlling a broad spectrum of insects, weeds and disease, as well as in non-agricultural markets for pest control. This powerful combination of advanced technologies includes leading insect control products based on Rynaxypyr® and Cyazypyr® active ingredients; Authority®, Boral®, Centium®, Command® and Gamit® branded herbicides; Isoflex™ active herbicide ingredient; Talstar® and Hero® branded insecticides; and flutriafol-based fungicides and biologicals such as Quartzo® and Presence® bionematicides as well as crop enhancers such as Accudo®. The FMC portfolio also includes Arc™ farm intelligence.
Russia's Invasion of Ukraine
In mid-April, we announced the decision to discontinue our operations and business in Russia. Our values as a company do not allow us to operate and grow our business in Russia. We recorded exit charges of approximately $76 million. See Note 9 for more information. We are closely monitoring any potential impacts on our raw material and supply chain costs arising out of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
COVID-19 Pandemic
As an agricultural sciences company, we are considered an "essential" industry in the countries in which we operate; we have avoided significant plant closures and all our manufacturing facilities and distribution warehouses remain operational and properly staffed. Our research laboratories and greenhouses also have continued to operate throughout the pandemic. We are closely monitoring raw material and supply chain costs including impacts by the continued COVID disruptions. Additionally, we are aware of the potential for disruptions or lack of availability, at any price, of critical materials. The extent to which COVID will continue to impact us will depend on future developments, many of which remain uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the pandemic, further actions to be taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the extent of the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.
We have implemented procedures to support the health and safety of our employees and we are following all U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as state and regional health department guidelines. The well-being of our employees is FMC's top priority. We have resumed in-office operations where permitted by local authorities and extended flexible work arrangements in some locations. In addition, we have thousands of employees who continue operating our manufacturing sites and distribution warehouses. In all our facilities, we are using a variety of best practices to address COVID risks, following the protocols and procedures recommended by leading health authorities. We are continuing to monitor the situation in all regions and adjust our health and safety protocols accordingly.
We will continue to monitor the economic environment related to the pandemic on an ongoing basis and assess the impacts on our business.

•Revenue of $1,452.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased $210.3 million or approximately 17 percent versus the same period last year. A more detailed review of revenue is discussed under the section titled "Results of Operations". On a regional basis, sales in North America increased by approximately 26 percent, sales in Latin America increased approximately 44 percent, sales in Europe, Middle East and Africa increased approximately 3 percent, and sales in Asia decreased approximately 1 percent as foreign currency headwinds more than offset pricing gains in the region. The increase was mostly driven by volume growth primarily in North America and Latin America and price increases across all regions. Excluding foreign currency impacts, revenue increased 21 percent during the quarter.
•Our gross margin of $591.0 million increased versus the prior year quarter by $59.2 million driven by higher volumes in North America and Latin America and higher prices in all regions, partially offset by higher cost of goods sold, primarily resulting from inflation, and foreign currency headwinds. Gross margin percent of approximately 41 percent decreased compared to approximately 43 percent in the prior year period, driven by higher costs.
•Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $161.0 million to $194.8 million, or approximately 21 percent. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses is a result of higher revenues, investments in growth, and inflation.
35
•Research and development expenses of $79.5 million increased $13.6 million or 21 percent. In the current year period the increase in spending on research and development projects relates to timing of project expenses and is consistent with our growth as a company.
•Net income (loss) attributable to FMC stockholders decreased from $202.9 million to $134.2 million which represents a decrease of $68.7 million, or approximately 34 percent. The lower results were driven by higher restructuring and other charges, selling, general and administrative expense and the provision for income taxes. This was partially offset by our gross margin growth. Adjusted after-tax earnings from continuing operations attributable to FMC stockholders of $245.1 million increased compared to the prior year amount of $235.2 million. See the disclosure of our Adjusted Earnings Non-GAAP financial measurement below, under the section titled "Results of Operations".
Other Highlights
On June 29, 2022 we announced a definitive agreement to acquire BioPhero ApS ("BioPhero"), a Denmark-based pheromone research and production company. The acquisition adds state-of-the-art biologically produced pheromone insect control technology to our product portfolio and R&D pipeline, underscoring our role as a leader in delivering innovative and sustainable crop protection solutions. We expect pheromones and pheromone-based products to contribute approximately $1 billion in revenue at above company-average EBITDA margin by 2030.
The purchase price of approximately $200 million was paid at closing on July 19, 2022. See Note 5 for additional information.
2022 Outlook Update
In 2022, we now expect the global crop protection market will be up mid-to-high single digits, on a U.S. dollar basis versus our earlier expectation of low-to-mid single digit growth. Latin America is now expected to be up double digits, primarily driven by pricing of non-selective herbicides. We still expect North America to be up mid-single digits while Asia is now expected to grow low-single digit. EMEA is still expected to be down low-single digits, including the impact of foreign currency. Excluding foreign currency impact, EMEA is expected to grow low-single digits.
After a strong first half of the year, and reflecting the increased market growth expectations, we are raising the full-year 2022 revenue guidance to be in the range of approximately $5.50 billion to $5.70 billion, up approximately 11 percent at the midpoint versus 2021. We are narrowing the full year adjusted EBITDA(1) range to $1.36 billion to $1.44 billion, representing 6 percent growth at the midpoint versus 2021 results. 2022 adjusted earnings per share is narrowed and it is now expected to be in the range of $7.00 to $7.70 per diluted share(1), representing a year over year increase of 6 percent at the midpoint. Full-year earnings growth drivers include pricing actions and strong volumes, offset by foreign currency impacts, primarily in EMEA and Asia. Adjusted earnings estimates do not include the benefit of any future share repurchases. For cash flow outlook, refer to the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section below.
(1)Although we provide forecasts for adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP financial measures), we are not able to forecast the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain elements of the composition of the U.S. GAAP amounts are not predictable, making it impractical for us to forecast. Such elements include, but are not limited to, restructuring, acquisition charges, and discontinued operations. As a result, no U.S. GAAP outlook is provided.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The following charts provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings, and Organic Revenue Growth, all of which are Non-GAAP financial measures, from the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA and Organic Revenue are provided to assist the readers of our financial statements with useful information regarding our operating results. Our operating results are presented based on how we assess operating performance and internally report financial information. For management purposes, we report operating performance based on earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, discontinued operations, and corporate special charges. Our Adjusted Earnings measure excludes corporate special charges, net of income taxes, discontinued operations attributable to FMC stockholders, net of income taxes, and certain Non-GAAP tax adjustments. These are excluded by us in the measure we use to evaluate business performance and determine certain performance-based compensation. Organic Revenue Growth excludes the impacts of foreign currency changes, which we believe is a meaningful metric to evaluate our revenue changes. These items are discussed in detail within the "Other Results of Operations" section that follows. In addition to providing useful information about our operating results to investors, we also believe that excluding the effect of corporate special charges, net of income taxes, and certain Non-GAAP tax adjustments from operating results and discontinued operations allows management and investors to compare more easily the financial performance of our underlying business from period to period. These measures should not be considered as substitutes for net income (loss) or other measures of performance or liquidity reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(2)The income tax expense (benefit) on corporate special charges (income) is determined using the applicable rates in the taxing jurisdictions in which the corporate special charge (income) occurred and includes both current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) based on the nature of the Non-GAAP performance measure.
(3)We exclude the GAAP tax provision, including discrete items, from the Non-GAAP measure of income, and instead include a Non-GAAP tax provision based upon the annual Non-GAAP effective tax rate. The GAAP tax provision includes certain discrete tax items including, but not limited to: income tax expenses or benefits that are not related to current year ongoing business operations; tax adjustments associated with fluctuations in foreign currency remeasurement of certain foreign operations; certain changes in estimates of tax matters related to prior fiscal years; certain changes in the realizability of deferred tax assets; and changes in tax law. Management believes excluding these discrete tax items assists investors and securities analysts in understanding the tax provision and the effective tax rate related to ongoing operations thereby providing investors with useful supplemental information about FMC's operational performance.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
North America: Revenue increased approximately 26 percent versus the prior year period. The increase was driven by demand for herbicides and insecticides, particularly for application in fruits and vegetables, corn, and soy. Growth in Canada was driven by the successful launch of Coragen® MaX insecticide.
Latin America: Revenue increased approximately 44 percent versus the prior year period, or approximately 42 percent excluding foreign currency, driven by growth in Brazil, Mexico and Argentina. Sales were strong for insecticides on soy, corn, and cotton.
EMEA: Revenue increased approximately 3 percent, or approximately 15 percent excluding foreign currency, driven by volume and price increases. Growth in the region was driven by diamides, selective herbicides, and Plant Health. The change in revenue from prior year was largely impacted by foreign currency headwinds.
Asia: Revenue decreased approximately 1 percent versus the prior year period, or increased approximately 4 percent excluding foreign currency. Price increases were largely impacted by foreign currency headwinds.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
North America: Revenue increased approximately 28 percent versus the prior year period. The increase was driven by broad-based growth across a variety of crops such as tree fruits, nuts, vines, corn, and soy. In the US, sales of biologicals almost doubled, led by products for corn and soybean. In Canada our results were driven by low channel inventory of insecticides,
40
strength in selective herbicides, and the successful launch of Coragen® MaX insecticide.
Latin America: Revenue increased approximately 39 percent versus the prior year period, or approximately 35 percent excluding foreign currency, driven by volume and price increases, particularly in Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico. Growth was led by insecticides and herbicides across a variety of crops.
EMEA: Revenue increased approximately 1 percent, or approximately 13 percent excluding foreign currency. Results were driven by strong pricing actions across the region, demand for selective herbicides on cereals and other crops, and demand for our diamides on corn and top fruit. The change in revenue from prior year was largely impacted by foreign currency headwinds.
Asia: Revenue remained flat versus the prior year period, or increased approximately 5 percent excluding foreign currency, driven by price actions and strong performance in Australia and the ASEAN countries. This was offset by foreign currency headwinds and a reduction in rice acres in India.
For 2022, full-year revenue is expected to be in the range of approximately $5.5 billion to $5.7 billion, which represents approximately 11 percent growth at the midpoint versus 2021.
Gross margin
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Gross margin of $591.0 million increased $59.2 million, or approximately 11 percent versus the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher revenues driven by increased volumes in North America and Latin America and pricing gains, which more than offset cost inflation and foreign currency headwinds. Gross margin percent of approximately 41 percent decreased compared to approximately 43 percent in the prior year period, driven primarily by higher costs.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Gross margin of $1,163.7 million increased $119.5 million, or approximately 11 percent versus the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher revenues driven by increased volumes in North America and Latin America and higher prices in all regions, partially offset by higher cost inflation and foreign currency headwinds. Gross margin percent of approximately 42 percent decreased compared to approximately 43 percent in the prior year period, driven primarily by higher costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $194.8 million increased $33.8 million, or 21 percent, versus the prior year period. Spending increased globally as a result of revenue growth, investments in growth programs, and inflation.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $383.3 million increased $47.8 million, or 14 percent, versus the prior year period. Spending increased globally as a result of our revenue growth, investments in growth programs, and inflation.
Research and development expenses
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Research and development expenses of $79.5 million increased $13.6 million or 21 percent. In the current year period we increased spending on research and development projects due to the timing of project expenses.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Research and development expenses of $151.3 million increased $11.4 million or 8 percent versus the prior year period. As noted above, the increase in research and development expenditures is related to increased spending in proportion to our overall growth.
Depreciation and amortization
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Depreciation and amortization of $42.8 million remained flat as compared to the prior year period of $42.5 million.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Depreciation and amortization of $85.2 million remained flat as compared to the prior year period of $85.1 million.
41
Interest expense, net
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Interest expense, net of $35.3 million increased compared to the prior year period of $32.6 million. The increase was primarily driven by higher short-term interest rates and higher debt balances, partially offset by benefits of the refinancing activity completed in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Interest expense, net of $65.2 million remained flat compared to the prior year period of $65.0 million.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Restructuring charges in 2022 of $3.4 million relate to employee separation costs and other exit costs associated with various restructuring initiatives across the globe. During the three month period ended June 30, 2022, these primarily relate to our regional realignment activities.
Restructuring charges in 2021 of $10.5 million consist of $7.2 million of charges related to regional realignment activities, including severance and employee relocation costs, and $1.7 million associated with the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business which was completed during the second quarter of 2020 except for certain in-flight initiatives, including severance, accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets, and other costs (benefits). Additionally, there were other miscellaneous restructuring charges of $1.6 million
Other charges (income), net in 2022 of $77.4 million is primarily the result of our decision to cease operations and business in Russia during the second quarter of 2022. As a result, we recorded a charge of $76.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 which consisted primarily of noncash asset write off charges. Refer to Note 9 for additional information.
In 2021, we had charges of $5.8 million which primarily consists of charges related to environmental sites.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Restructuring charges in 2022 of $14.6 million consist of $8.9 million in fixed asset and other charges resulting from the closure of a manufacturing site during the period. Restructuring charges also include an additional $5.7 million in charges from various restructuring initiatives across the globe.
Restructuring charges in 2021 of $16.8 million consist of $7.9 million of charges associated with regional realignment activities, including severance and employee relocation costs, and $5.0 million related to the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business which was completed during the second quarter of 2020 except for certain in-flight initiatives. Additionally, there were other miscellaneous restructuring charges of $3.9 million.
Other charges (income), net in 2022 of $75.3 million is primarily the result of our decision to cease operations and business in Russia during the second quarter of 2022. As a result, we recorded a charge of approximately $76.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 which consisted primarily of noncash asset write off charges. Other charges (income), net in 2021 of 2.7 million primarily consists of in-process research and development charges.
Non-operating pension and postretirement charges (income)
Charges for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $3.9 million compared to charges of $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Charges for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $8.2 million compared to charges of $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in non-operating pension and postretirement charges (income) is attributable to higher expected return on plan assets and lower amortization of net actuarial losses. These decreases were partially offset by higher interest costs due to an increase in rates. As previously disclosed, we continued to use the smoothed market related value of assets (MRVA) as opposed to the actual fair value of plan assets in the determination of pension expense. This continued approach will create some volatility in our non-operating periodic pension cost since our qualified pension plan is 100 percent fixed income securities.

Provision for income taxes
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $54.7 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 27.8 percent. Provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $33.4 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 13.3 percent. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 was driven by the factors shown in the table below as well as the impact of certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that became effective in 2022 and geographic earnings mix.

Discontinued operations, net of income taxes
Our discontinued operations include provisions, net of recoveries, for environmental liabilities and legal reserves and expenses related to previously discontinued operations and retained liabilities.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Discontinued operations, net of income taxes represented a loss of $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to a loss of $14.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The loss during both the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was primarily due to adjustments related to the retained liabilities from our previously discontinued operations.
43
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Discontinued operations, net of income taxes represented a loss of $26 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to a loss of $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The loss during both the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was primarily due to adjustments related to the retained liabilities from our previously discontinued operations.
Net income (loss)
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Net income (loss) decreased to $131.2 million from income of $203.2 million in the prior year period. Restructuring and other charges increased approximately $65 million as compared to the prior period, primarily due to the charge associated with the exit of our Russia operations. Additionally, selling, general and administrative costs and provision for income taxes increased approximately $34 million and $21 million, respectively. This was partially offset by an increase in gross margin of approximately $59 million from higher volume.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Net income (loss) decreased to $342.8 million from income of $386.4 million in the prior year period. This decrease in net income was primarily due to an increase in restructuring and other charges of approximately $70 million, largely attributable to our exit from Russia operations as mentioned above, as well as an increase in selling, general and administrative costs and provision for income taxes of approximately $48 million and $31 million, respectively, as compared to the prior period. This was partially offset by an increase in gross margin of approximately $120 million from higher volume.
The only difference between Net income (loss) and Net income (loss) attributable to FMC stockholders is noncontrolling interest, which period over period is immaterial.
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)
The Adjusted EBITDA amounts discussed below for three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are reconciled to Net Income (loss) within this Form 10-Q. Refer to our Overview under the section titled "Results of Operations" above.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Adjusted EBITDA of $359.5 million increased $12.1 million, or approximately 3 percent versus the prior year period. The increase was mainly driven by higher pricing in all regions and volume growth which accounted for approximately 24 percent and 29 percent increases, respectively. These pricing actions were taken to offset the sustained cost inflation we are experiencing across our supply chain. Higher costs and foreign currencies fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of approximately 43 percent and 7 percent, respectively, on adjusted EBITDA.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021
Adjusted EBITDA of $714.3 million increased $60.0 million, or approximately 9 percent versus the prior year period. The increase was mainly driven by higher pricing in all regions and volume growth which accounted for approximately 27 percent and 20 percent increases, respectively. These pricing actions were taken to offset the sustained cost inflation we are experiencing across our supply chain. Higher costs, including raw material, energy, logistics, packaging, and labor costs, and foreign currencies fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of approximately 32 percent and 6 percent, respectively, on adjusted EBITDA.
For 2022, full-year Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $1.36 billion to $1.44 billion, which represents approximately 6 percent growth at the midpoint versus 2021. Although we provide a forecast for Adjusted EBITDA, a Non-GAAP financial measure, we are not able to forecast the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. See Note 1 to our 2022 Outlook Update within this section of the Form 10-Q.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As a global agricultural sciences company, we require cash primarily for seasonal working capital needs, capital expenditures, and return of capital to shareholders. We plan to meet these liquidity needs through available cash, cash generated from operations, commercial paper issuances and borrowings under our committed revolving credit facility as well as other liquidity facilities, and in certain instances access to debt capital markets. We believe our strong financial standing and credit ratings will ensure adequate access to the debt capital markets on favorable conditions.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, were $591.5 million and $516.8 million, respectively. Of the cash and cash equivalents balance at June 30, 2022, $562.0 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries. During the third quarter of 2021, we established plans to repatriate cash from certain foreign subsidiaries with minimal tax on a go forward basis. Other cash held by foreign subsidiaries is generally used to finance subsidiaries’ operating activities and future foreign investments.
Outstanding debt
At June 30, 2022, we had total debt of $3,886.8 million as compared to $3,172.5 million at December 31, 2021. Total debt included $2,731.7 million and $2,731.7 million of long-term debt (excluding current portions of $89.2 million and $84.5 million) at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt, which consists of short-term foreign borrowings, commercial paper borrowings, and the current portion of long-term debt, increased from $440.8 million at December 31, 2021 to $1,155.1 million at June 30, 2022. See Note 10 in the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for further details. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants. We remain committed to solid investment grade credit metrics, and expect full-year average leverage to be in line with this commitment in 2022.
Access to credit and future liquidity and funding needs
At June 30, 2022, our remaining borrowing capacity under our credit facility was $875.6 million. See Note 10 in the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for discussion of the amendments to the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Agreements undertaken in the quarter. Our commercial paper program allows us to borrow at rates generally more favorable than those available under our credit facility. At June 30, 2022, we had $964.4 million commercial paper borrowings under the commercial paper program. At June 30, 2022, the average effective interest rate on the borrowings was 2.15 percent. Our commercial paper balances fluctuate from year to year depending on working capital needs.
Working Capital Initiatives
The Company works with suppliers to optimize payment terms and conditions on accounts payable to improve working capital and cash flows. The Company offers to a select group of suppliers a voluntary Supply Chain Finance (“SCF”) program with a global financial institution. The suppliers, at their sole discretion, may sell their receivables to the financial institution based on terms negotiated between them. Our obligations to our suppliers are not impacted by our suppliers’ decisions to sell under these arrangements. Agreements under these supplier financing programs are recorded within Accounts payable in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and the associated payments are included in operating activities within our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We do not believe that changes in the availability of the supply chain finance program would have a significant impact on our liquidity.
From time to time, the Company may sell receivables on a non-recourse basis to third-party financial institutions. These sales are normally driven by specific market conditions, including, but not limited to, foreign exchange environments, customer credit management, as well as other factors where the receivables may lay.
We account for these transactions as sales which result in a reduction in accounts receivables because the agreements transfer effective control and risk related to the receivables to the buyers. The net cash proceeds received are presented within cash provided by operating activities within our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The cost of factoring these accounts receivables is recorded as an expense within the Consolidated Statements of Income and has been inconsequential during each reporting period.

____________________
(1)Both periods include the impacts of seasonality and the receivable build intrinsic in our business. The change in cash flows related to trade receivables in 2022 was driven by timing of collections as well as higher volumes for revenue year over year. Collection timing is more pronounced in certain countries such as Brazil where there may be terms significantly longer than the rest of our business. Additionally, timing of collection is impacted as amounts for both periods include carry-over balances remaining to be collected in Latin America, where collection periods are measured in months rather than weeks. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we collected approximately $548 million of receivables in Brazil.
(2)Advance payments are primarily within North America and these payments are received in the fourth quarter of each year and recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet at December 31. Revenue associated with advance payments is recognized, generally in the first half of each year, as shipments are made and control to the customer takes place. The change year over year is primarily related to substantially higher overall payments received in the fourth quarter of 2021 due to a strong North America season.
(3)These rebates are primarily associated within North America, and to a lesser extent Brazil, and in North America generally settle in the fourth quarter of each year given the end of the respective crop cycle. The changes year over year are associated with the mix in sales eligible for rebates and incentives which includes higher revenues for products eligible for rebates compared to the prior year and timing of certain rebate payments.
(4)Changes in inventory are a result of inventory levels being adjusted to take into consideration the change in market conditions. Inventory build in 2022 is in line with the projected demand for the beginning of 2022 as well as our decision to build inventory to help manage continued supply chain volatility. Inventory build in the prior year period was higher primarily due to increased diamide production and recovery in the second quarter.
(5)The change in cash flows related to accounts payable is primarily due to the timing of payments made to suppliers and vendors.
(6)Changes in all periods presented primarily represent timing of payments associated with all other operating assets and liabilities. Additionally, both periods include the effects of the unfavorable contracts amortization of approximately $54 million and $51 million, respectively.
(7)See Note 9 in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for further details.
(8)The amounts represent environmental remediation spending at our operating sites which were recorded against pre-existing reserves, net of recoveries. Refer to Note 12 for more details. During the first quarter of 2021, FMC made $21.4 million in
46
payments for the Pocatello Tribal Litigation judgement plus interest charges. In the second quarter of 2021, FMC made a further payment to the Tribes of $10.8 million to pay fees and interest incurred from 2015 to 2021.
(9)There were no voluntary contributions to our U.S. qualified defined benefit plan, which is slightly overfunded, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
(10)Amounts shown in the chart represent net payments of our continuing operations. The decrease in tax payments year over year is primarily attributable to higher tax payments in 2021 due to the deferral of income tax payments in 2020 in various jurisdictions as a result of the COVID pandemic.
(11)Represents payments for legal and professional fees associated with integrating the DuPont Crop Protection Business. The integration is considered complete and the 2022 payments are associated with settlement of final amounts payable to various vendors.
Cash provided (required) by operating activities of discontinued operations was $(31.6) million and $(32.4) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Cash provided (required) by operating activities of discontinued operations is directly related to environmental, other postretirement benefit liabilities, self-insurance, long-term obligations related to legal proceedings and historical restructuring activities. Period over period the cash flow impacts of these activities were consistent, as expected.
Cash provided (required) by investing activities of continuing operations was $(65.3) million and $(81.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The change in cash from investing activities of continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, was primarily due to cash provided by other investing in 2022 compared to a cash outflow in the same period in 2021. Additionally, the 2021 period included spending associated with the implementation of our new SAP system in 2021 which did not repeat in the current year. This was offset partially with higher capital expenditure spending.
Cash provided (required) by financing activities of continuing operations was $585.7 million and $315.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The change period over period in financing activities of continuing operations is primarily due to higher commercial paper borrowings in the current period and zero repurchases of common stock under our publicly announced program in the current period versus $100 million of repurchases of common stock in 2021. See below discussion for dividend payments which are a component of cash provided (required) by financing activities of continuing operations.
Free Cash Flow
We define free cash flow, a Non-GAAP financial measure, as all cash inflows and outflows excluding those related to financing activities (such as debt repayments, dividends, and share repurchases) and acquisition related investing activities. Free cash flow is calculated as all cash from operating activities reduced by spending for capital additions and other investing activities as well as legacy and transformation spending. Therefore, our calculation of free cash flow will almost always result in a lower amount than cash from operating activities from continuing operations, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. However, the free cash flow measure is consistent with management's assessment of operating cash flow performance and we believe it provides a useful basis for investors and securities analysts about the cash generated by routine business operations, including capital expenditures, in addition to assessing our ability to repay debt, fund acquisitions including cost and equity method investments, and return capital to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.
Our use of free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results under U.S. GAAP. First, free cash flow is not a substitute for cash provided (required) by operating activities of continuing operations, as it is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have non-discretionary obligations, primarily debt service, that are not deducted from the measure. Second, other companies may calculate free cash flow or similarly titled Non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of free cash flow as a tool for comparison. Additionally, the utility of free cash flow is further limited as it does not reflect our future contractual commitments and does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period. Because of these and other limitations, free cash flow should be considered along with cash provided (required) by operating activities of continuing operations and other comparable financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

2022 Cash Flow Outlook
Our cash needs for 2022 include operating cash requirements (particularly working capital, as well as environmental, asset retirement obligation, and restructuring spending), capital expenditures, and legacy and transformation spending, as well as mandatory payments of debt, dividend payments, and share repurchases. We plan to meet our liquidity needs through available cash, cash generated from operations, commercial paper issuances and borrowings under our committed revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2022, our remaining borrowing capacity under our credit facility was $875.6 million.
We are narrowing the range of our full year 2022 free cash flow (Non-GAAP) guidance to be approximately $565 million to $685 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, free cash flow decreased approximately $347.9 million from the prior year period. Adjusted cash from operations decreased from the prior year period, driven by higher working capital. Strong sales growth, including the impact of price increases on receivables, was the key driver of increased cash consumption of working capital. Capital additions were in line with the prior year period. Legacy and transformation spending was down, primarily due to the absence of spend on our SAP program, which was completed last year.
Although we provide a forecast for free cash flow, a Non-GAAP financial measure, we are not able to forecast the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which is cash provided (required) by operating activities of continuing operations. Certain elements of the composition of the U.S. GAAP amount are not predictable, making it impractical for us to forecast. Such elements include, but are not limited to, restructuring, acquisition charges, and discontinued operations. As a result, no U.S. GAAP outlook is provided.
Cash from operating activities of continuing operations
We forecast cash from operating activities, excluding the effects of transaction-related cash flows, to be in the range of approximately $790 million to $870 million. Transaction-related cash flows are included within Legacy and transformation, which is consistent with how we evaluate our business operations from a cash flow standpoint. See below for further
48
discussion. Cash from operating activities includes cash requirements related to our pension plans, environmental sites, restructuring and asset retirement obligations, taxes, and interest on borrowings.
Pension
We do not expect to make any voluntary cash contributions to our U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan in 2022. The plan is slightly overfunded and our portfolio is comprised of 100 percent fixed income securities and cash. Our investment strategy is a liability hedging approach with an objective of maintaining the funded status of the plan such that the funded status volatility is minimized and the likelihood that we will be required to make significant contributions to the plan is limited.
Environmental
Projected 2022 spending, net of recoveries includes approximately $25 million to $35 million of net environmental remediation spending for our sites accounted for within continuing operations. Environmental obligations for continuing operations primarily represent obligations at shut down or abandoned facilities within businesses that do not meet the criteria for presentation as discontinued operations.
Projected 2022 spending, net of recoveries includes approximately $45 million to $55 million of net environmental remediation spending for our discontinued sites. These projections include spending as a result of a settlement reached in 2019 at our Middleport, New York site of $10 million maximum per year, on average, until the remediation is complete.
Total projected 2022 environmental spending, inclusive of sites accounted for within both continuing operations and discontinued sites, is expected to be in the range of approximately $70 million to $90 million.
Restructuring and asset retirement obligations
We expect to make payments of approximately $35 million to $45 million in 2022, of which approximately $10 million is related to exit and disposal costs as a result of our previous decision in 2019 to exit sales of all carbofuran formulations (including Furadan® insecticide/nematicide, as well as Curaterr® insecticide/nematicide and any other brands used with carbofuran products).
Capital additions and other investing activities
Projected 2022 capital expenditures and expenditures related to contract manufacturers are expected to be in the range of approximately $145 million to $175 million. The spending is primarily driven by capacity growth as well as catching up on deferred projects. Expenditures related to contract manufacturers are included within "Other investing activities" on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
Legacy and transformation
Projected 2022 legacy and transformation spending are expected to be in the range of approximately $30 million to $60 million. This is primarily driven by environmental remediation spending. We expect lower legacy costs and minimal transformation spending in 2022.
Share repurchases
In February 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1 billion of the Company's common stock. The $1 billion share repurchase program is replacing the previous authorization in its entirety. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, no shares were repurchased under the publicly announced repurchase program. At June 30, 2022, $1 billion remained unused under our Board-authorized repurchase program. This repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price targets and may be suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. We plan to repurchase a total of $200 million in shares by the end of 2022 under our existing share repurchase authorization.
Dividends
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, we paid dividends of $133.7 million and $124.3 million, respectively. On July 21, 2022, we paid dividends totaling $66.9 million to our shareholders of record as of June 30, 2022. We expect to continue to make quarterly dividend payments. Future cash dividends, as always, will depend on a variety of factors, including earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, general economic conditions and other factors considered relevant by us and is subject to final determination by our Board of Directors.
Acquisitions
As noted, in July we spent $200 million on the acquisition of BioPhero.
Commitments and Contingencies

Contractual Commitments
Information related to our contractual commitments at December 31, 2021 can be found within Part II, Item 7 of our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to our contractual commitments during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Climate Change
A detailed discussion related to climate change can be found in Part II, Item 7 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Fair Value Measurements
See Note 18 to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for additional discussion surrounding our fair value measurements.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND MARKET RISKS
Our earnings, cash flows, and financial position are exposed to market risks relating to fluctuations in commodity prices, interest rates, and foreign currency exchange rates. Our policy is to minimize exposure to our cash flow over time caused by changes in commodity, interest, and currency exchange rates. To accomplish this, we have implemented a controlled program of risk management consisting of appropriate derivative contracts entered into with major financial institutions.
The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market rates and prices. The range of changes chosen reflects our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period. Market-value estimates are based on the present value of projected future cash flows considering the market rates and prices chosen.
At June 30, 2022, our financial instrument position was a net asset of $13.8 million compared to a net asset of $19.4 million at December 31, 2021. The change in the net financial instrument position was primarily due to changes in foreign exchange and interest rates.
Since our risk management programs are generally highly effective, the potential loss in value for each risk management portfolio described below would be largely offset by changes in the value of the underlying exposure.
Commodity Price Risk
Energy costs are diversified among electricity and natural gas. We attempt to mitigate our exposure to increasing energy costs by hedging the cost of future deliveries of natural gas and electricity. To analyze the effect of changing energy prices, we perform a sensitivity analysis in which we assume an instantaneous 10 percent change in energy market prices from their levels at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with all other variables (including interest rates) held constant. Note, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had no open commodity contracts. As a result, there was no sensitivity analysis performed over commodity price risk for the periods presented.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
The primary currencies for which we have exchange rate exposure are the U.S. dollar versus the Euro, the Chinese yuan, the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, and the Argentine peso. Foreign currency debt and foreign exchange forward contracts are used in countries where we do business, thereby reducing our net asset exposure. Foreign exchange forward contracts are also used to hedge firm and highly anticipated foreign currency cash flows.
To analyze the effects of changing foreign currency rates, we have performed a sensitivity analysis in which we assume an instantaneous 10 percent change in the foreign currency exchange rates from their levels at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with all other variables (including interest rates) held constant.

| Net asset (liability) position at December 31, 2021 | 15.6 | 84.1 | (50.8) | ||||||||||||||
Interest Rate Risk
One of the strategies that we can use to manage interest rate exposure is to enter into interest rate swap agreements. In these agreements, we agree to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated on an agreed-upon notional principal amount. As of June 30, 2022, we had outstanding interest rate swap contracts in place with an aggregate notional value of $200.0 million.
To analyze the effects of changing interest rates, we have performed a sensitivity analysis in which we assume an instantaneous one percent change in the interest rates from their levels at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with all other variables held constant.

Our debt portfolio, at June 30, 2022, is composed of 53 percent fixed-rate debt and 47 percent variable-rate debt. The variable-rate component of our debt portfolio principally consists of borrowings under our 2021 Term Loan Facility, Credit Facility, commercial paper program, variable-rate industrial and pollution control revenue bonds, and amounts outstanding under foreign subsidiary credit lines. Changes in interest rates affect different portions of our variable-rate debt portfolio in different ways.
Based on the variable-rate debt in our debt portfolio at June 30, 2022, a one percentage point increase in interest rates then in effect would have increased gross interest expense by $9.3 million and a one percentage point decrease in interest rates then in effect would have decreased gross interest expense by $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The information required by this item is provided in "Derivative Financial Instruments and Market Risks," under ITEM 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer), the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Change in Internal Controls. There have been no changes in internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financing reporting.

FMC Corporation:
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of FMC Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2022, the related condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), and changes in equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 25, 2022, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
