Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except as noted)
1.Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of July 3, 2021 and for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020 include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to state fairly the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations, Statements of Comprehensive Income, Statements of Stockholders' Equity (Deficit), and Statements of Cash Flows of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Motorola Solutions” or the “Company”) for all periods presented.
The Company operates on a 52-week fiscal year, with each fiscal year ending on December 31. With respect to each fiscal quarter, the Company operates on a 13-week fiscal quarter, with all fiscal quarters ending on a Saturday.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "Form 10-K"). The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Change in Presentation
As further described in the Form 10-K, during the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company updated its revenue disaggregation presentation of major products and services to provide a more comprehensive view of technologies within the Company's reporting segments. Accordingly, the Company now reports net sales in the following three major products and services (which the Company refers to as “technologies” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”)): Land Mobile Radio Mission Critical Communications (“LMR” or “LMR Mission Critical Communications”), Video Security and Access Control, and Command Center Software. With the Company's acquisition of Openpath Security Inc. (“Openpath”) subsequent to quarter end on July 15, 2021, the Company renamed one of its three major products and services technologies from Video Security and Analytics to Video Security and Access Control to better align with its strategic growth initiatives. The change is to the name of the technology only and no financial information has been reclassified from previous periods presented or for the quarter ended July 3, 2021.
•LMR Mission Critical Communications: Infrastructure, devices (two-way radio and broadband, including both for public safety and Professional Commercial Radio ("PCR")) and software that enable communications, inclusive of installation and integration, backed by services, to assure availability, security and resiliency.
•Video Security and Access Control: Cameras (fixed, body-worn, in-vehicle), access control, infrastructure, video management, software and artificial intelligence-enabled analytics that enable visibility “on scene” and bring attention to what’s important.
•Command Center Software: Software suite that enables collaboration and seamless information sharing through the public safety workflow from 911 call to case closure.
Recent Acquisitions
Subsequent to quarter end, on July 15, 2021, the Company acquired Openpath, a cloud-based mobile access control provider for $297 million, net of cash acquired. In addition, the Company issued restricted stock at a fair value of $29 million to certain key employees that will be expensed over an average service period of three years. The transaction also includes the potential for the Company to make earn-out payments based on Openpath's achievement of certain financial targets from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. This acquisition expands the Company's ability to combine video security and access control solutions within Video Security and Access Control to help support enterprise customers. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the initial accounting for the acquisition is incomplete.
On August 28, 2020, the Company acquired the Callyo business ("Callyo"), a cloud-based mobile applications provider for law enforcement in North America for $63 million, inclusive of share-based compensation withheld at a fair value of $3 million that will be expensed over an average service period of two years. The acquisition was settled with $61 million in cash, net of cash acquired. This acquisition adds to the Company's existing Command Center Software suite critical mobile technological capabilities that enable information to flow seamlessly from the field to the command center. The business is a part of the Software and Services segment.
On July 31, 2020, the Company acquired Pelco, Inc. ("Pelco"), a global provider of video security solutions for a purchase price of $110 million. The acquisition was settled with $107 million of cash, net of cash acquired. The acquisition demonstrates the Company's continued investment in Video Security and Access Control, adding a broad range of products that can be used in a variety of commercial and industrial environments and use cases. The business is a part of both the Products and Systems Integration segment and the Software and Services segment.
On June 16, 2020, the Company acquired IndigoVision Group plc ("IndigoVision") for a purchase price of $37 million.

The acquisition complements the Company's Video Security and Access Control technology, providing enhanced geographical reach across a wider customer base. The business is a part of both the Products and Systems Integration segment and the Software and Services segment.
On April 30, 2020, the Company acquired a cybersecurity services business for $32 million of cash, net of cash acquired.

The business is a part of the Software and Services segment.
On March 3, 2020, the Company acquired a cybersecurity services business for $40 million, inclusive of share-based compensation withheld at a fair value of $6 million that will be expensed over a service period of two years.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) - Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity," which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments. The new guidance removes the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature or a beneficial conversion feature. In addition, the new standard provides guidance on calculating the dilutive impact of convertible debt on earnings per share. The ASU clarifies that the average market price should be used to calculate the diluted earnings per share denominator when the exercise price or the number of shares that may be issued is variable. The ASU is effective for the Company on January 1, 2022, including interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The ASU permits the use of either a full or modified retrospective method of adoption. The Company is still evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on its financial statements and disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740),” which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions and streamlining other areas of accounting for income taxes. Portions of the amendment within the ASU require retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective adoption methods. The Company adopted ASU No. 2019-12 as of January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the revenue that is expected to be recognized in future periods related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, as of the end of a period. The transaction values associated with remaining performance obligations which were not yet satisfied as of July 3, 2021 was $7.1 billion. A total of $3.3 billion was from Products and Systems Integration performance obligations that are not yet satisfied, of which $1.7 billion is expected to be recognized in the next twelve months. The remaining amounts will generally be satisfied over time as systems are implemented. A total of $3.8 billion was from Software and Services performance obligations that were not yet satisfied as of July 3, 2021. The determination of Software and Services performance obligations that are not satisfied takes into account a contract term that may be limited by the customer’s ability to terminate for convenience. Where termination for convenience exists in the Company's service contracts, its disclosure of the remaining performance obligations that are unsatisfied assumes the contract term is limited until renewal. The Company expects to recognize $1.5 billion from unsatisfied Software and Services performance obligations over the next twelve months, with the remaining performance obligations to be recognized over time as services are performed and software is implemented.

Earnings Per Common Share
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is as follows:

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Per share amount | $ | 1.69 | $ | 0.78 | $ | 3.10 | $ | 1.90 |
In the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended July 3, 2021, the assumed exercise of 0.4 million options, including 0.2 million subject to market based contingent option agreements, were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the six months ended July 3, 2021, the assumed exercise of 0.4 options, including 0.1 million subject to market based contingent option agreements, were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.
In the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended June 27, 2020, 0.6 million options, including 0.2 million subject to market based contingent option agreements, were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the six months ended June 27, 2020, the assumed exercise of 0.4 million options, including 0.1 million subject to market based contingent option agreements, were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.
As of July 3, 2021, the Company had $1.0 billion of 1.75% Senior Convertible Notes outstanding which mature on September 15, 2024 ("Senior Convertible Notes"). The notes are convertible based on a conversion rate of 4.9140 per $1,000 principal amount (which is equal to an initial conversion price of $203.50 per share). In the event of conversion, the Company intends to settle the principal amount of the Senior Convertible Notes in cash. Because of the Company’s intention to settle the par value of the Senior Convertible Notes in cash, Motorola Solutions does not reflect any shares underlying the Senior
Convertible Notes in its diluted weighted average shares outstanding until the average stock price per share for the period exceeds the conversion price. Only the number of shares that would be issuable (under the treasury stock method of accounting for share dilution) will be included, which is based upon the amount by which the average stock price for the period exceeds the conversion price of $203.50. The conversion price is adjusted for dividends declared through the date of settlement. For the period ended July 3, 2021, there was no dilutive effect of the Senior Convertible Notes on diluted earnings per share attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc. as the average stock price for the period outstanding was below the conversion price.

On May 24, 2021, the Company issued $850 million of 2.75% senior notes due 2031. The Company recognized net proceeds of $844 million after debt issuance costs. A portion of these proceeds were then used to redeem $324 million in principal amount of its outstanding long-term debt for a purchase price of $341 million, excluding $3 million of accrued interest.
After accelerating the amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs, the Company recognized a loss of $18 million related to the redemption in Other, net within Other income (expense) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As of July 3, 2021, the Company had a $2.25 billion syndicated, unsecured revolving credit facility scheduled to mature in March 2026 (the "2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement"). The 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement includes a letter of credit sub-limit and fronting commitments of $450 million. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the prime rate plus the applicable margin, or at a spread above the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), at the Company's option. The 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement includes provisions allowing the Company to replace LIBOR with a replacement benchmark rate in the future under certain conditions defined in the agreement. An annual facility fee is payable on the undrawn amount of the credit line. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment if the Company's credit rating changes. The Company must comply with certain customary covenants including a maximum leverage ratio, as defined in the 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of July 3, 2021.
The Company has an unsecured commercial paper program, backed by the 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement, under which the Company may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion outstanding at any one time. Proceeds from the issuances of the notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. The notes are issued at a zero-coupon rate and are issued at a discount which reflects the interest component. At maturity, the notes are paid back in full including the interest component. The notes are not redeemable prior to maturity. As of July 3, 2021 the Company had no outstanding debt under the commercial paper program.
6. Risk Management
Foreign Currency Risk
The Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $1.2 billion for each of the periods ended July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company does not believe these financial instruments should subject it to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should generally offset gains and losses on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions.
The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts of the positions to buy or sell foreign currency as of July 3, 2021, and the corresponding positions as of December 31, 2020:
| Notional Amount | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Net Buy (Sell) by Currency | July 3, 2021 | December 31, 2020 | ||
| Euro | $ | 173 | $ | 177 |
| Canadian dollar | 54 | 61 | ||
| British pound | 48 | 86 | ||
| Chinese renminbi | (99) | (90) | ||
| Australian dollar | (89) | (88) |
Counterparty Risk
The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties. However, the Company’s risk is limited to the fair value of the instruments when the derivative is in an asset position. The Company actively monitors its exposure to credit risk. As of July 3, 2021, all of the counterparties had investment grade credit ratings. As of July 3, 2021, the Company had $5 million of exposure to aggregate credit risk with all counterparties.
The following tables summarize the fair values and locations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of all derivative financial instruments held by the Company as of July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Net Investment Hedges
The Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts with contract terms of 12 to 15 months to hedge against the effect of the British pound and the Euro exchange rate fluctuations against the U.S. dollar on a portion of its net investments in certain European operations. The Company recognizes changes in the fair value of the net investment hedges as a component of foreign currency translation adjustments within other comprehensive income to offset a portion of the change in translated value of the net investments being hedged, until the investments are sold or liquidated. As of July 3, 2021, the Company had €100 million of net investment hedges in certain Euro functional subsidiaries and £125 million of net investment hedges in certain British pound functional subsidiaries.
The Company excludes the difference between the spot rate and the forward rate of the forward contract from its assessment of hedge effectiveness. The effect of the excluded components will be amortized on a straight line basis and recognized through interest expense. During the six months ended July 3, 2021, the Company amortized $1 million of income from the excluded components through interest expense. During the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, the Company amortized $1 million and $2 million, respectively, of income from the excluded components through interest expense.
7. Income Taxes
At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of its annual effective income tax rate. Tax expense in interim periods is calculated at the estimated annual effective tax rate plus or minus the tax effects of items of income and expense that are discrete to the period. The estimate used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis may change in subsequent interim periods.
The following table provides details of income taxes:

Legal Matters
On March 14, 2017, the Company filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the “Court”) against Hytera Communications Corporation Limited of Shenzhen, China; Hytera America, Inc.; and Hytera Communications America (West), Inc. (collectively, “Hytera”), alleging trade secret theft and copyright infringement and seeking, among other things, injunctive relief, compensatory damages, and punitive damages. On February 14, 2020, the Company announced that a jury decided in the Company's favor in its trade secret theft and copyright infringement case. In connection with this verdict, the jury awarded the Company $345.8 million in compensatory damages and $418.8 million in punitive damages, for a total of $764.6 million. The Court denied Hytera’s motion for a new trial on October 20, 2020. On December 17, 2020, the Court denied the Company’s motion for a permanent injunction, finding instead that Hytera must pay the Company a forward-looking reasonable royalty on products that use the Company’s stolen trade secrets. As of the second quarter of 2021, the parties were unable to agree on a reasonable royalty rate. Therefore, the Court will set the rate. The issue is fully briefed by the parties and awaits the Court's determination.
On January 11, 2021, the Court granted Hytera’s motion for certain equitable relief and reduced the $764.6 million judgment award to $543.7 million. That same day, the Court also granted the Company’s motion for pre-judgment interest, although the precise amount of interest owed to the Company by Hytera is still to be determined by the Court. On March 25, 2021, the Court entered rulings favorable to the Company with respect to several of the Company's post-trial motions, including the Company's motion for attorneys' fees and its motion to require Hytera to turn over certain assets in satisfaction of the Company’s judgment award.
On May 27, 2020, Hytera America, Inc. and Hytera Communications America (West), Inc. each filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Company filed motions in the Bankruptcy Court to dismiss the bankruptcy proceedings in July 2020. On January 22, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered an agreed order, allowing a partial sale of Hytera's U.S. assets in the bankruptcy proceedings. The proposed sale does not include Hytera inventory accused of including the Company’s intellectual property.

Executive Overview
Business Overview
During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company updated its revenue disaggregation presentation of major products and services to provide a more comprehensive view of technologies within our reporting segments. Accordingly, the Company now reports net sales in the following three major products and services (which we refer to as “technologies” in this Form 10-Q): Land Mobile Radio Mission Critical Communications (“LMR” or “LMR Mission Critical Communications”), Video Security and Access Control and Command Center Software. With the Company's acquisition of Openpath Security Inc. (“Openpath”) subsequent to quarter end on July 15, 2021, the Company renamed one of its three major products and services technologies from Video Security and Analytics to Video Security and Access Control to better align with its strategic growth initiatives. The change is to the name of the technology only and no financial information has been reclassified from previous periods presented or for the quarter ended July 3, 2021.
•LMR Mission Critical Communications: Infrastructure, devices (two-way radio and broadband, including both for public safety and Professional Commercial Radio ("PCR")) and software that enable communications, inclusive of installation and integration, backed by services, to assure availability, security and resiliency.
•Video Security and Access Control: Cameras (fixed, body-worn, in-vehicle), access control, infrastructure, video management, software and artificial intelligence-enabled analytics that enable visibility “on scene” and bring attention to what’s important.
•Command Center Software: Software suite that enables collaboration and seamless information sharing through the public safety workflow from 911 call to case closure.
Second Quarter Financial Results
•Net sales were $2.0 billion in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $1.6 billion in the second quarter of 2020.
•Operating earnings were $370 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $218 million in the second quarter of 2020.
•Net earnings attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc. were $293 million, or $1.69 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $135 million, or $0.78 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2020.
•Operating cash flow increased $241 million to $758 million in the first half of 2021 compared to $517 million in the first half of 2020.
•We repurchased $272 million of common stock and paid $242 million in dividends in the first half of 2021.
COVID-19
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been a broad number of governmental and commercial actions taken to limit the spread of the virus, including social distancing measures, stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, business shutdowns and slowdowns. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to be dynamic, and near-term challenges across the economy remain. Although vaccines are now being distributed and administered across many parts of the world, new variants of the virus have emerged and may continue to emerge that have shown to be more contagious. We continue to adhere to applicable governmental and commercial restrictions and to work to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our employees, customers, communities, liquidity and financial position.
We continue to abide by a number of measures in an effort to protect the health and well-being of our employees and customers, including encouraging office workers to work remotely, reducing employee travel, withdrawing from certain industry events, increasing the frequency of cleaning services, encouraging face coverings, and using thermal scanning. During the second quarter of 2021, we began to allow certain essential business travel to resume; however, we continue to carefully assess conditions on a geographical basis to determine when employees can safely return to our offices. We also facilitated the process for our employees in certain locations to receive the COVID-19 vaccine during the second quarter of 2021, as vaccines are distributed and administered throughout the U.S. and the global community. As conditions continue to fluctuate around the world, with both vaccine administration and the rates of new variants of COVID-19 (particularly the "delta variant") rising in certain regions, governments and organizations have responded by adjusting their restrictions and guidelines accordingly. We continue to monitor the daily evolution of the pandemic, including the spread of the delta variant, in order to ensure the health and safety of our employees remains our top priority. As of the date of this filing, we are following the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance and state and location restrictions with respect to our U.S. employees, as well as guidance from corresponding international authorities with respect to our non-U.S. employees. With respect to our customers, we have continued to ensure customer continuity by fulfilling several emergency orders, completing remote software maintenance where possible, and continuing to service our mission-critical networks on-site as needed to ensure seamless operations. Our sales teams have also continued to improve virtual engagement with our customers. Additionally, our engineering teams have adapted our solutions offerings to equip our customers with the latest technology in an effort to protect their workplaces from the spread of COVID-19. Specifically, in Video Security and Access Control, we have adapted our software and hardware offerings to provide analytics addressing occupancy counting, face mask detection, and thermal detection capabilities.
We believe our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, along with other short-term liquidity arrangements, will continue to be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements associated with our existing operations. We were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the 2021 unsecured revolving credit facility as of July 3, 2021. Additionally, we have no bond maturities until 2024. We continue to assess our operating expenses and identify cost reducing initiatives, including lower travel costs, contractor spend and reducing our real estate footprint. In addition, our supply chain partners have been supportive and continue to work to fulfill the necessary service levels to the Company and its customers.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic continued to influence our activities in the second quarter of 2021, as described above, the negative impacts on our business from COVID-19 have begun to ease. Specifically, in our Software and Services segment, with the largely recurring nature of the business and our strong backlog position, we continue to expect that the impacts on net sales and operating margin will be limited for the remainder of 2021. Within the Products and Systems Integration segment, we are encouraged by strong LMR backlog, and the resiliency of the Video Security and Access Control technology that experienced growth in the second quarter of 2021 and which we expect to continue to grow for the remainder of 2021. In addition, in March 2021, the President of the United States signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the "ARPA"), which is intended to provide economic stimulus, specifically additional funding to state and local governments, education and healthcare, as well as other funding relief provisions, in order to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to evaluate the potential impact of the ARPA on our business and results of operations, although we anticipate that the ARPA will have a positive impact on our business and results of operations during the remainder of 2021 and beyond as we expect our governmental customers to receive funding from the ARPA.
Lastly, we evaluated whether there were any impairment indicators as of July 3, 2021, which included a review of our receivables and contract assets, inventory, right-of-use lease assets, long-lived assets, investments, goodwill and intangible assets. As of the end of the second quarter of 2021, we concluded our assets were fairly stated and recoverable.

Results of Operations—Three months ended July 3, 2021 compared to three months ended June 27, 2020
The results of operations for the second quarter of 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. Historically, we have experienced higher revenues in the fourth quarter as compared to the rest of the quarters of our fiscal year as a result of the purchasing patterns of our customers.
We use the following U.S. GAAP key financial performance measures to manage our business on a consolidated basis and by reporting segment, and to monitor and assess our results of operations:
•Net sales: a measure of our revenue for the current period.
•Operating earnings: a measure of our earnings from operations, before non-operating expenses and income taxes.
•Operating margins: a measure of our operating earnings as a percentage of total net sales.
Considered together, we believe these measures are strong indicators of our overall performance and our ability to create shareholder value. A discussion of our results of operations and financial condition follows.

Income tax expense increased by $6 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to an increase in pretax earnings offset by a tax benefit of $33 million due to a partial release of a valuation allowance recorded on the U.S. foreign tax credit carryforward, resulting in an effective tax rate of 14%. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended July 3, 2021 was lower than the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 27, 2020 of 23%, primarily due to a tax benefit of $33 million related to a partial release of a valuation allowance recorded on the U.S. foreign tax credit carryforward.

•$125 million, or 13% growth in LMR services, inclusive of revenue from acquisitions, driven by both the North America and International regions;
•$63 million, or 53% growth in Video Security and Access Control, inclusive of revenue from acquisitions, driven by both the North America and International regions;

Gross margin was 48.4% of net sales in the first half of 2021 compared to 47.4% in the first half of 2020. The primary drivers of this increase were:
•higher gross margin within the Software and Services segment, inclusive of acquisitions, primarily driven by higher gross margin contribution from sales growth and improved mix of service offerings, partially offset by higher employee incentive costs; and
•higher gross margin in the Products and Systems Integration segment, inclusive of acquisitions, primarily driven by higher sales volume and reduced reorganization of business charges, partially offset by an increase in employee incentive costs.

SG&A expenses were 16.9% of net sales in the first half of 2021 compared to 19.5% of net sales in the first half of 2020. The decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily due to lower third party expenses, lower Hytera-related legal expenses, lower share-based compensation expenses and lower travel expenses. The overall reduction in SG&A expenses was partially offset by higher employee incentive costs and higher expenses associated with acquired businesses.

| Other charges | $ | 150 | $ | 109 |
Other charges increased by $41 million in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020. The change was driven primarily by the following:
•a $50 million gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment in the first half of 2020 that did not recur in the first half of 2021;
•$116 million of intangible asset amortization expense in the first half of 2021 compared to $104 million of intangible asset amortization expense in the first half of 2020;
•$7 million of operating lease asset impairments in the first half of 2021; partially offset by

| Operating earnings | $ | 668 | $ | 476 |
Operating earnings increased $192 million, or 40%, in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020. The increase in Operating earnings was due to:
•$117 million increase in the Software and Services segment, driven by higher sales and gross margin contribution due to improved mix of service offerings, lower reorganization of business charges, lower share-based compensation expenses and improved operating leverage, partially offset by higher employee incentive costs and higher expenses associated with acquired businesses; and
•$75 million increase in the Products and Systems Integration segment, primarily driven by higher gross margin due to increased sales volume, lower reorganization of business charges, lower third party expenses, lower Hytera-related legal expenses and lower travel expenses, partially offset by a $50 million gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment in the first half of 2020 that did not recur in the first half of 2021 and higher employee incentive costs and higher expenses associated with acquired businesses.

| Interest expense, net | $ | (98) | $ | (109) |
The $11 million decrease in net interest expense in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 was a result of the reversal of a non-cash interest accrual related to an international tax audit, lower interest rates on debt outstanding and lower average debt outstanding for the six months ended July 3, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 27, 2020.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| (In millions) | July 3, 2021 | June 27, 2020 | ||
| Income tax expense | $ | 90 | $ | 67 |
Income tax expense increased by $23 million in the first half of 2021 compared to first half of 2020, primarily due to an increase in pretax earnings offset by a $33 million tax benefit due to a partial release of a valuation allowance recorded on the U.S. foreign tax credit carryforward, resulting in an effective tax rate of 14%. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended July 3, 2021 was lower than the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 27, 2020 of 17%, primarily due to a tax benefit of $33 million related to a partial release of a valuation allowance recorded on the U.S. foreign tax credit carryforward.
Reorganization of Business
During the second quarter of 2021, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $9 million, including $6 million of charges recorded within Other charges and $3 million in Costs of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Included in the $9 million were charges of $12 million related to employee separation costs, partially offset by $3 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
During the first half of 2021, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $25 million, including $20 million of charges recorded within Other charges and $5 million in Costs of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Included in the $25 million were charges of $30 million related to employee separation costs, partially offset by $5 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.

During the first half of 2020, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $59 million, including $38 million of charges in Other charges and $21 million of charges in Costs of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Included in the $59 million were charges of $68 million related to employee separation costs, partially offset by $9 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
At July 3, 2021, $1.3 billion of the $1.9 billion cash and cash equivalents balance was held in the U.S. and $567 million was held in other countries, with $228 million held in the United Kingdom.
Operating Activities
The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities from the first half of 2020 to the first half of 2021 was driven primarily by an increase in earnings as a result of increased sales volume and improved working capital, partially offset by higher income tax payments.
Investing Activities
The decrease in cash flows used for investing activities from the first half of 2020 to the first half of 2021 was primarily due to:
•$93 million decrease in cash used for acquisitions and investments; partially offset by a
•$50 million decrease in the proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment driven by the sale of a European manufacturing facility in the first half of 2020; and
•$12 million increase in capital expenditures due to higher payments for the Airwave and ESN networks.
Financing Activities
The increase in cash flows provided by financing activities in the first half of 2021 as compared to the cash used for financing activities in the first half of 2020 was primarily driven by (also see further discussion in the "Debt," "Share Repurchase Program" and "Dividends" sections below in this Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q):
•$64 million decrease in share repurchases in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020;
•$844 million of net proceeds from the issuance of debt in the first half of 2021 compared to $800 million of proceeds received from the draw on our revolving credit facility during the first half of 2020;
•partially offset by $348 million of repayments of debt in the first half of 2021 compared to $300 million of repayments on the revolving credit facility and $8 million of repayments of debt in the first half of 2020; and
•$24 million increase in the payment of dividends in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020.
Sales of Receivables
The following table summarizes the proceeds received from sales of accounts receivable and long-term customer financing receivables for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020:
| Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| July 3, 2021 | June 27, 2020 | July 3, 2021 | June 27, 2020 | |||||
| Contract-specific discounting facility | $ | 36 | $ | 54 | $ | 107 | $ | 98 |
| Accounts receivable sales proceeds | 8 | 34 | $ | 8 | $ | 58 | ||
| Long-term receivables sales proceeds | 30 | 29 | 84 | 70 | ||||
| Total proceeds from receivable sales | $ | 74 | $ | 117 | $ | 199 | $ | 226 |
During the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, we utilized a contract-specific receivable discounting facility which began during the six months ended June 27, 2020, resulting in accounts receivable sales of $36 million and $107 million, respectively. The proceeds of our receivable sales are included in Operating activities within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Debt
We had outstanding debt of $5.7 billion and $5.2 billion, including the current portions of $9 million and $12 million, at July 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
On May 24, 2021, we issued $850 million of 2.75% senior notes due 2031. We recognized net proceeds of $844 million after debt issuance costs. A portion of these proceeds were then used to redeem $324 million in principal amount of our outstanding long-term debt for a purchase price of $341 million, excluding $3 million of accrued interest. After accelerating the amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs, we recognized a loss of $18 million related to the redemption in Other, net within Other income (expense) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
On March 24, 2021, we entered into a $2.25 billion syndicated, unsecured revolving credit facility scheduled to mature in March 2026 (the "2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement"). The 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement includes a letter of credit sub-limit and fronting commitments of $450 million. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the prime rate plus the applicable margin, or at a spread above the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), at our option. The 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement includes provisions allowing us to replace LIBOR with a replacement benchmark rate in the future under certain conditions defined in the agreement. An annual facility fee is payable on the undrawn amount of the credit line. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment if our credit rating changes. We must comply with certain customary covenants including a maximum leverage ratio, as defined in the 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with our financial covenants as of July 3, 2021.
On September 5, 2019, we entered into an agreement with Silver Lake Partners to issue $1.0 billion of 1.75% senior convertible notes which mature in September 2024 ("Senior Convertible Notes"). Interest on these notes is payable semiannually. The notes are convertible anytime on or after two years from their issuance date, except in certain limited circumstances. The notes are convertible based on a conversion rate of 4.9140 per $1,000 principal amount (which is equal to an initial conversion price of $203.50 per share). In the event of conversion, we intend to settle the principal amount of the Senior Convertible Notes in cash. We recorded a debt liability associated with the Senior Convertible Notes by determining the fair value of an equivalent debt instrument without a conversion option. Using a discount rate of 2.45%, which was determined based on a review of relevant market data, we calculated the debt liability to be $986 million, indicating a $14 million discount to be amortized over the expected life of the debt instrument. The remaining proceeds of $14 million were allocated to the conversion option and accordingly, increased Additional paid-in capital.
We have an unsecured commercial paper program, backed by the 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement, under which we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion outstanding at any one time. Proceeds from the issuances of the notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. As of July 3, 2021 we had no outstanding debt under the commercial paper program.
We believe that we have adequate internal resources available to fund expected working capital and capital expenditure requirements, contractual obligations, debt service requirements and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations for at least the next twelve months and the reasonably foreseeable future thereafter, as supported by the level of cash and cash equivalents in the U.S., the ability to repatriate funds from foreign jurisdictions, cash provided by operations, as well as liquidity provided by our commercial paper program backed by the 2021 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. Refer also to the “COVID-19” section in this Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for a discussion of the impact of COVID-19 on our liquidity.
Share Repurchase Program
During the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, we paid an aggregate of $102 million and $272 million, respectively, including transaction costs, to repurchase approximately 0.5 million and 1.5 million shares at an average price of $206.85 and $186.08 per share. During the three months ended July 3, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a $2.0 billion increase to the share repurchase program. As of July 3, 2021, the Company had used approximately $13.6 billion of the share repurchase authority to repurchase shares, leaving $2.4 billion of authority available for future repurchases.
Dividends
During the second quarter of 2021 we paid $121 million in cash dividends to holders of our common stock. During the first half of 2021 we paid $242 million in cash dividends to holders of our common stock. Subsequent to the quarter, we paid an additional $120 million in cash dividends to holders of our common stock.
Long-Term Customer Financing Commitments
We had outstanding commitments to provide long-term financing to third parties totaling $99 million at July 3, 2021, compared to $78 million at December 31, 2020.
