BUNGE LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION, PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bunge Limited ("Bunge" or the "Company"), its subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which Bunge is considered to be the primary beneficiary, and as a result, include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all entities over which Bunge has a controlling financial interest. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from Bunge’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, forming part of Bunge’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022.
On May 1, 2022, Bunge completed a transaction with Chevron Corporation ("Chevron") to create a joint venture, Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC (the "Joint Venture"), leveraging Bunge’s expertise in oilseed processing and farmer relationships, and Chevron’s expertise in fuels manufacturing and marketing, to help meet the demand for renewable fuels and to develop lower carbon intensity feedstocks. Bunge has a 50% ownership interest in the Joint Venture. Bunge contributed certain property, plant, and equipment related to two of its soybean processing facilities to the Joint Venture, with a fair value totaling approximately $521 million, and Chevron contributed an approximately equal value of cash and working capital. Bunge has also committed to undertake certain capital improvements on the soybean processing facilities contributed to the Joint Venture, up to an estimated $80 million, at which point Chevron will contribute an additional equivalent amount in cash. Under the terms of the Joint Venture's agreements, Bunge will operate the Joint Venture’s facilities, and Chevron will have purchase rights for oil produced by the Joint Venture for use as a renewable feedstock to manufacture low lifecycle carbon intensity transportation fuels. See Note 9 - Variable Interest Entities for further accounting considerations related to this transaction.
Bunge has operations in Turkey, which until March 31, 2022 used the official exchange rate published by the Turkish government to translate the Company's commercial transactions and for financial statement re-measurement purposes. Over the last several years, Turkey has experienced negative economic trends, as evidenced by multiple periods of increasing inflation rates, depreciation of the Turkish lira, and increasing borrowing rates, which have required the Turkish government to take mitigating actions. During the first quarter of 2022, Turkey became a highly inflationary economy as defined under U.S. GAAP. In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the financial statements of foreign entities in highly inflationary economies are required to be remeasured as if the functional currency were the reporting currency, commencing in the period subsequent to such economies becoming highly inflationary. As a result, effective April 1, 2022, the financial statements of Bunge's Turkish subsidiary have been remeasured using the reporting currency, the U.S. dollar, rather than the Turkish lira. This change has not had a material impact on Bunge's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
    Restricted cash is included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash, reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets, which sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Table of Contents
Cash paid for taxes, which primarily comprises income taxes and value added taxes, net of refunds, was $260 million and $121 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash paid for interest expense was $221 million and $79 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832) - Disclosures by Business Entities About Government Assistance, which requires annual disclosures for transactions with a government authority that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. This guidance will be applied prospectively to all transactions within the scope of the standard that are reflected in financial statements at the date of initial application and new transactions that are entered into after the date of initial application. As this standard requires annual disclosure only, the Company continues to identify its transactions that are subject to this guidance and evaluate the impact of this standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 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), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted earnings per share calculation and requires enhanced disclosures about the terms of convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. This guidance will be applied prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Bunge's condensed consolidated financial statements.    

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, with subsequent updates through ASU 2021-01, which collectively provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting, to ease the financial reporting burden related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance, and per the guidance, the Company is applying it prospectively to all eligible contract modifications through December 31, 2022. In March 2021, the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), responsible for regulating LIBOR, announced that most LIBOR settings were to be discontinued after December 31, 2021, except for certain USD LIBOR settings, which will continue through June 30, 2023. In September 2021, the FCA further announced that it will require the LIBOR benchmark administrator to publish sterling and Japanese yen LIBOR settings under a synthetic methodology based on term risk-free rates for the duration of 2022. These synthetic LIBOR settings will be available only for use in legacy contracts and are not for use in new business.
Bunge has utilized the relief provided by Topic 848 to ensure financial reporting results reflect the intended continuation of such contracts and arrangements during the period of the market-wide transition to alternative reference rates. The expedients allow an eligible modified contract to be accounted for and presented as a continuation of the existing contract.
The Company has identified its LIBOR-based contracts that have been, or will be, impacted by the cessation of LIBOR. The Company continues to actively work with counterparties to incorporate fallback language in negotiated contracts, in addition to incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and fallback language, when applicable, in new contracts. The modification of contracts is ongoing; however, as of June 30, 2022, the adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on Bunge's condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.    UKRAINE-RUSSIA WAR
    On February 24, 2022, Russia initiated a military invasion of Ukraine. Ukraine is a key international grain originating region and is also the world’s largest supplier of sun seed and sun oil; commodities which cannot be completely replaced from other origins. As a result of the invasion, Bunge temporarily idled its Ukrainian operations, comprising two oilseed crushing facilities in Mykolaiv and Dnipropetrovsk, a grain export terminal in the Mykolaiv commercial seaport, numerous grain elevators, and an office in Kiev. The Company also operates a corn milling facility in Ukraine via a joint venture.
As a result of the Ukraine-Russia war (the "war"), Bunge’s Mykolaiv port facility sustained damage on three separate occasions: March 22, June 22, and July 1, 2022. In each of these instances, based on initial visual inspections, there did not appear to be material physical damage to the Mykolaiv port facility, the adjacent Oilseed crush plant, or any other facilities. However, thorough onsite, physical inspections of the damage to the Mykolaiv facility, or potential damage to other Bunge facilities, resulting from the two most recent incidents have not been possible due to safety concerns.
Beginning late March, Bunge restarted certain commercial and operational activities in Ukraine, as well as certain rail, truck and barge exports from Ukraine. Such activities have increased during recent months but remain limited, and the activities are performed only where and when the ability to do so safely exists. Furthermore, the ability to continue these activities is unknown.
The Company’s Ukrainian operations employ over 1,000 employees. While as of the date of this report, to the Company's knowledge, there have been no reported casualties or injuries to Bunge employees, some of the Company’s Ukrainian employees have been forced to relocate to other countries or elsewhere within Ukraine. The safety of Bunge's employees is Bunge’s top priority; the Company is actively providing support and resources to employees and their families who have been impacted by these events, and Bunge employees in neighboring countries have mobilized to provide accommodation, food, clothing, toys and other supplies for displaced colleagues and their families. Bunge is also committed to supporting humanitarian efforts in Ukraine and has provided over $2 million in food products and monetary assistance to multiple relief organizations helping the people of Ukraine.
In response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization ("NATO") member states, as well as non-member states, have announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. Any continuation or escalation of the war may trigger additional economic and other sanctions. The scope or extent of potential additional sanctions, and the related impact on Bunge is unknown, as of the date of this report.
The Company has scaled back its Russian grain trading activities in recent years, including via the sale of its Rostov grain export terminal in 2021. The Company continues to operate its oilseed crush plant in Voronezh, in southwest Russia, doing so in compliance with legal requirements imposed following the start of the war. From a humanitarian standpoint, this plant is important to the local food supply as it provides essential food-related products to the Russian population. Certain companies have experienced negative reactions from their investors, employees, customers, or other stakeholders as a result of their action or inaction related to the war between Russia and Ukraine. The Company therefore continues to monitor the reactions of its investors, employees, customers, and other stakeholders and, as of the date of this report, has neither experienced any material financial impacts nor suffered from the loss of key customers or employees as a result of its continued operations in Russia.
The scope, intensity, duration and outcome of the ongoing war is uncertain, and any continuation or escalation of the war may have a material adverse effect on Bunge, including its Ukrainian and Russian operations.
In accordance with industry standards, Bunge insures against many types of risks. While insurance may mitigate certain of the risks associated with the ongoing war, the Company's level of insurance may not cover all losses the Company could incur.
Further details about the current status and corresponding accounting considerations in Ukraine and Russia are provided below.
Ukraine
The scope and intensity of the war continues to evolve. Bunge is closely monitoring the evolving situation and currently maintains control over all material operations and facilities in Ukraine. The condensed consolidated balance sheet and related discussion below provides information on the Company’s major classes of assets and liabilities in Ukraine as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the total assets and total liabilities associated with Bunge’s Ukrainian subsidiaries comprise approximately 1% of Bunge’s consolidated total assets and total liabilities, respectively.
Due to the nature of the war and its rapidly shifting areas of active combat, it is currently not possible to obtain all information necessary to determine all financial statement impacts. As such, the various financial statement impacts and related disclosures presented in these interim financial statements represent management’s best estimates considering the available facts and circumstances as of the date of this report.

Table of Contents
The functional currency of Bunge’s Ukrainian subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar and the foreign exchange rates used to convert assets and liabilities denominated in Ukrainian hryvnia represent the official exchange rates published by the National Bank of Ukraine. Following the onset of the war, the Ukrainian government imposed restrictions on companies’ abilities to repatriate or otherwise remit cash from their Ukrainian-based operations to locations outside Ukraine. However, these restrictions are not expected to persist indefinitely as the Ukrainian government has eased certain restrictions surrounding the payment of international purchase invoices subsequent to June 30, 2022. The restrictions have not adversely impacted the Company's Ukrainian operations. Bunge is able to readily purchase U.S. dollars and other non-Ukrainian currencies onshore in Ukraine to pay for imports of goods and allowed services, where needed. Bunge is also able to sell foreign currency onshore in Ukraine. Bunge continues to exercise control of and consolidates its Ukrainian subsidiaries.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet related to the Company’s Ukrainian operations as of June 30, 2022 consists of the following:

Cash and cash equivalents—Comprises cash on deposit with various financial institutions in Ukraine. As of June 30, 2022 and through the date of this report, there are no restrictions on the Company’s access to such cash and cash equivalents.
Trade accounts receivable—As a result of the war, the risk characteristics of trade accounts receivable connected to Ukraine differ from those of the Company’s other trade accounts receivable, such that Ukrainian trade receivables may be at a higher risk of default. Additionally, as the scope, intensity, duration, escalation, and outcome of the ongoing war is uncertain, the Company has segregated its Ukrainian trade accounts receivables into a separate risk pool and incorporated an assessment of current and expected future adverse effects related to the war, including customer-specific factors such as their geographical location in relation to combat zones and operating conditions, when determining an allowance for credit losses in relation to such receivables. The assessment resulted in no significant change in recorded allowances for lifetime expected credit losses during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, in relation to the Company's $5 million gross Ukrainian receivables balance at June 30, 2022.
Inventories—Bunge’s Ukrainian inventories generally comprise agricultural commodity inventories, primarily sunflower seeds, sunflower meal, sunflower oil, corn, and wheat. Due to their commodity characteristics, widely available markets, and international pricing mechanisms, such inventories are generally carried at fair value. However, as a result of the war, Bunge is neither able to immediately market its inventories located in Ukraine at internationally-quoted prices, nor make such inventories available for immediate delivery at such prices. Therefore, following the onset of the war, the Company has ceased recording its Ukrainian inventories at fair value and instead records all such inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value, by product category.
A thorough onsite physical inspection of all of Bunge’s inventories is currently not able to be conducted due to safety concerns, particularly in areas of active combat. As such, significant judgments have been made in estimating the net realizable value of the Company’s Ukrainian inventories.
12

Table of Contents

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded reserves of $24 million and $24 million, respectively, for inventories with net realizable values determined to be lower than their costs, which were recorded in Cost of goods sold within the Company’s Agribusiness segment.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company evaluated the recoverability of its inventories inside Ukraine considering the latest information available to management regarding: the current status of the war; expectations regarding the likelihood and timing of a potential peaceful resolution to the war; the physical location and condition of Bunge's inventories, including expectations regarding the timing of spoilage and the rate at which inventories can be transported from their current location to markets in other parts of Ukraine or exported to adjacent markets. As a result of this analysis, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company wrote off $62 million and $71 million, respectively, of inventories physically located in occupied territories in Ukraine, or in difficult to access locations with high costs of recovery.

In connection with its write-off of the above inventories, the Company also wrote off $6 million and $7 million in corresponding recoverable tax assets generated on purchase of inventories subsequently written off during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Other current assets—Comprises $51 million of marketable securities and other short-term investments, $26 million of recoverable taxes, net, and $7 million of various other items, as follows:
Marketable securities and other short-term investments—Primarily comprise Ukrainian (“on-shore”) government debt securities, denominated in Ukrainian hryvnia. Bunge classifies these securities as “trading securities”, carried at fair value in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, with changes in fair value recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income in the period in which they occur.
In addition to the marketable securities and other short-term investments belonging to Bunge’s Ukrainian subsidiaries, shown in the above balance sheet, certain of the Company’s non-Ukrainian subsidiaries hold certain U.S. dollar denominated, non-Ukrainian (“off-shore”) corporate debt securities of issuers with significant exposure to Ukraine. The values of these off-shore securities are directly impacted by the ongoing war. Such items, again reported within Other current assets as marketable securities and other short-term investments, totaled $15 million as of June 30, 2022.
As a result of the war, trading in the Ukrainian and Ukrainian-exposed debt securities has largely ceased. As such, at June 30, 2022, the prices of such securities were determined using pricing models with inputs based on similar securities adjusted to reflect management’s best estimate of the specific characteristics of the securities held by the Company. Such inputs represent a significant component of the fair value of the securities held by the Company, resulting in the securities being classified as Level 3 in the Company’s table of assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis in Note 12 - Fair Value Measurements.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a combined $5 million and $69 million loss, respectively, on its “on-shore” and “off-shore” portfolios, within Other income (expense) – net, in the condensed consolidated statement of income, of which $37 million relates to securities still held at June 30, 2022.
Recoverable taxes, net—Comprise $26 million in net value-added taxes paid upon the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, raw materials, taxable services, and other transactional taxes, recoverable in cash from the Ukrainian government. Bunge has continued to receive refunds of recoverable taxes from the Ukrainian government since the start of the war, including as recently as early June. Therefore, as of June 30, 2022, and during the three and six months then ended, Bunge has not recorded any change in allowances for recoverable taxes in Ukraine except for those associated with the Company's write-off of inventories, described above.
Other—Primarily comprise prepaid expenses and advance payments against contracts for future deliveries of specified quantities of agricultural commodities.
Property, plant, and equipment, net—As described above, following the onset of the war, Bunge temporarily idled its Ukrainian operations. However, beginning late March, Bunge restarted certain limited activities. On each of March 22, June 22, and July 1, 2022, Bunge’s Mykolaiv port facility sustained damage as a result of the war. In each of these instances, based on initial visual inspections, there did not appear to be material physical damage to the Mykolaiv port facility, the adjacent Oilseed crush plant, or any other facilities. However, thorough onsite physical inspections of the damage to the Mykolaiv facility, or potential damage to other Bunge facilities, resulting from the two most recent incidents have not been possible due to safety concerns. As such, significant judgments have been made in estimating the extent of any damage to the Company’s facilities in Ukraine. Accordingly, the Company has recorded impairment provisions of $1 million and $2 million in relation to such damage, within Cost of goods sold, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The expense was recorded in the Company’s Agribusiness segment.

Table of Contents
In light of the war, Bunge evaluated the recoverability of its Ukrainian property, plant and equipment using an income method based on forecasts of expected future cash flows attributable to the respective assets under a range of possible outcomes, including those with reduced or no future cash flows, and concluded that the Company's Ukrainian property, plant and equipment was recoverable. The recoverability tests depend on a number of significant estimates and assumptions, including the likelihood and timing of a potential peaceful resolution to the war, the availability and cost of raw material commodities and other inputs, as well as demand levels for products. During the second quarter, the Company revised these estimates and assumptions to reflect the latest available information pertaining to the likelihood and timing of resuming operations at its Ukrainian facilities, expectations around the size of future harvests in Ukraine, and related changes in the availability and costs of raw materials commodities and inputs. The Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reasonable, and the reported amounts are not highly sensitive to any individual assumption underlying the recoverability tests. However, future changes in the judgments, assumptions and estimates used in these recoverability tests could result in different conclusions regarding the recoverability of the Company's Ukrainian property, plant and equipment and may result in the need for the Company to record non-cash impairment charges of its Ukrainian property, plant and equipment at such time.
Other non-current assets—Comprises $26 million of deferred tax assets, $10 million of operating lease right-of-use assets associated with Bunge’s facilities, $7 million of recoverable taxes, net, expected to be realized in periods greater than twelve months from the balance sheet date, and $7 million of various other items.
Trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities—Comprise amounts owed by the Company’s Ukrainian subsidiaries for goods delivered to or services consumed by such subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.
Short-term debt—Bunge's short-term debt represents Ukrainian hryvnia denominated debt, primarily used to fund working capital requirements, issued by Ukrainian branches of non-Ukraine-based financial institutions.
Other-current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities—Primarily comprise various commercial and other provisions that arise in the normal course of business.
Russia
The scope of current economic and other sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises, as well as the nature and extent of potential additional sanctions, is uncertain. Bunge currently maintains control over all material operations and facilities in Russia. Bunge continues to monitor developments regarding the legal and operational environment in Russia together with their related impacts on the Company’s operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company's Russian subsidiaries have not experienced any material financial statement impacts as a direct result of the war.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet below provides information on the Company’s major classes of assets and liabilities in Russia as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the total assets and total liabilities associated with Bunge’s Russian subsidiaries comprise less than 1% of Bunge’s consolidated total assets and total liabilities, respectively.
The functional currency of Bunge’s Russian subsidiaries is the Russian ruble (RUB) and the foreign exchange rates used to convert assets and liabilities denominated in Russian ruble represent the official exchange rates published by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. Since the onset of the war, the Russian government has imposed restrictions on companies’ abilities to repatriate or otherwise remit cash from their Russian-based operations to various locations outside of Russia, including limiting capital repayments to non-Russian entities to RUB 10 million ($0.2 million) per month. However, Bunge remains able to readily purchase U.S. dollars and other non-Russian currencies onshore in Russia in order to make international payments for commercial contracts and is also readily able to exchange Russian rubles in international currency exchange markets. Bunge continues to exercise control of and consolidates its Russian subsidiaries.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet related to the Company’s Russian operations as of June 30, 2022 consists of the following:

3.    ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS
Assets held for sale and Liabilities held for sale
Mexico Wheat Milling Disposition
On October 12, 2021, Bunge entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its wheat milling business in Mexico in exchange for cash proceeds approximately equal to the book value of Property, plant and equipment, net, plus an additional sum in consideration for the value of net working capital to be transferred upon closing. Additionally, cumulative translation adjustments, among other items related to the disposal group, resulted in a corresponding impairment loss on sale of $170 million, recognized in Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2021. The agreement is expected to close in the last half of 2022 and is subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions.
The following table presents the disposal group's major classes of assets and liabilities included in Assets held for sale and Liabilities held for sale, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2022, reported under the Milling segment:

4.    TRADE STRUCTURED FINANCE PROGRAM
    The Company engages in various trade structured finance activities to leverage the value of its global trade flows. These activities include programs under which the Company generally obtains U.S. dollar-denominated letters of credit ("LCs") from financial institutions, each based on an underlying commodity trade flow, and time deposits denominated in either the local currency of the financial institutions' counterparties or in U.S. dollars, as well as foreign exchange forward contracts, in which trade related payables are set-off against receivables, all of which are subject to legally enforceable set-off agreements.
            As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, time deposits and LCs of $6,170 million and $6,543 million, respectively, were presented net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as the criteria of ASC 210-20, Offsetting, had been met. The net losses and gains related to such activities are included as an adjustment to Cost of goods sold in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, time deposits, including those presented on a net basis, carried weighted-average interest rates of 2.10% and 1.08%, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, total net proceeds from issuances of LCs were $3,689 million and $3,995 million, respectively. These cash inflows were offset by the related cash outflows resulting from placement of the time deposits and repayment of the LCs. All cash flows related to the programs are included in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
As part of the trade structured finance activities, LCs may be sold to financial institutions on a discounted basis. Bunge does not service derecognized LCs. The terms of the sale may require the Company to continue to make periodic interest payments to financial institutions based on changes in Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), or LIBOR for trades prior to January 1, 2022, for a period of up to 365 days. Bunge’s payment obligation to financial institutions as part of the trade structured finance activities, reported in Other current liabilities, including any unrealized gain or loss on changes in SOFR, or LIBOR for trades prior to January 1, 2022, is not significant as of June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The notional amounts of LCs subject to continuing variable interest payments that have been derecognized from the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are included in Note 13 - Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities. The net gain or loss included in Cost of goods sold resulting from the fair valuation of such variable interest rate obligations is not significant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Trade Receivables Securitization Program
Bunge and certain of its subsidiaries participate in a trade receivables securitization program (the "Program") with a financial institution, as administrative agent, and certain commercial paper conduit purchasers and committed purchasers. On March 31, 2022, Bunge and certain of its subsidiaries renewed and amended the Program. As a result, the aggregate size of the facility that provides funding against receivables sold into the Program increased by $175 million from $925 million to $1.1 billion. Bunge may also, from time to time with the consent of the administrative agent, request one or more of the existing committed purchasers or new committed purchasers to increase the total commitments by an amount not to exceed $250 million pursuant to an accordion provision. The Program will terminate on May 17, 2031; however, each committed purchaser's commitment to purchase trade receivables under the Program will terminate on May 17, 2025, unless extended for an additional period in accordance with the terms of the receivables transfer agreement. The Program was further amended to add sustainability provisions, pursuant to which the applicable margin will be increased or decreased based on Bunge's performance in comparison with certain sustainability targets, including, but not limited to, recently established science-based targets that define Bunge's climate goals within its operations and a commitment to a deforestation-free supply chain in 2025.

6.    INVENTORIES
Inventories by segment are presented below. Readily marketable inventories ("RMI") are agricultural commodity inventories, such as soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, palm oil, corn, and wheat carried at fair value because of their commodity characteristics, widely available markets, and international pricing mechanisms. The Company engages in trading and distribution, or merchandising activities, and part of RMI can be attributable to such activities and is not held for processing. All other inventories are carried at lower of cost or net realizable value.

All other investments were recorded at cost, and due to the short-term nature of these investments, their carrying values approximated their fair values. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, unrealized losses of $18 million and unrealized gains of $16 million, respectively, have been recorded and recognized in Other income (expense) - net for investments held at June 30, 2022 and 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, unrealized losses of $119 million and unrealized gains of $22 million, respectively, have been recorded and recognized in Other income (expense) - net for investments held at June 30, 2022 and 2021.

(2)    As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $10 million and $12 million, respectively, of long-term investments are recorded at fair value.
Recoverable taxes, net - Recoverable taxes include value-added taxes paid upon the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, raw materials and taxable services, and other transactional taxes which can be recovered in cash or as compensation against income taxes, or other taxes Bunge may owe, primarily in Brazil and Europe. Recoverable taxes are reported net of allowances of $17 million and $18 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Judicial deposits - Judicial deposits are funds the Company has placed on deposit with the courts in Brazil. These funds are held in judicial escrow relating to certain legal proceedings pending resolution and bear interest at the Selic rate, which is the benchmark rate of the Brazilian central bank.

Table of Contents
Income taxes receivable - Income taxes receivable include overpayments of current income taxes plus accrued interest. These income tax prepayments are expected to be primarily used for the settlement of future income tax obligations. Income taxes receivable in Brazil bear interest at the Selic rate.
Long-term investments - Long-term investments primarily comprise Bunge's noncontrolling equity investments in growth stage agribusiness and food companies held by Bunge Ventures.
Affiliate loans receivable - Affiliate loans receivable are primarily interest-bearing receivables from unconsolidated affiliates with remaining maturities of greater than one year.
Long-term receivables from farmers in Brazil, net - The Company provides financing to farmers in Brazil, primarily through secured advances against farmer commitments to deliver agricultural commodities (primarily soybeans) upon harvest of the then-current year’s crop, and through credit sales of fertilizer to farmers. Certain such long-term receivables from farmers are originally recorded in Other current assets as prepaid commodity contracts or secured advances to suppliers (see Note 7 - Other Current Assets) or Other non-current assets according to their maturity. Advances initially recorded in Other current assets are reclassified to Other non-current assets if collection issues arise and amounts become past due with resolution of such matters expected to take more than one year.
The average recorded investment in long-term receivables from farmers in Brazil for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 was $114 million and $92 million, respectively. The table below summarizes the Company’s recorded investment in long-term receivables from farmers in Brazil and the related allowance amounts.

9.    VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
As indicated in Note 1 - Basis of Presentation, Principles of Consolidation, And Significant Accounting Policies, on May 1, 2022, Bunge completed a transaction with Chevron Corporation ("Chevron") to create a joint venture, Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC (the "Joint Venture"), leveraging Bunge’s expertise in oilseed processing and farmer relationships, and Chevron’s expertise in fuels manufacturing and marketing, to help meet the demand for renewable fuels and to develop lower carbon intensity feedstocks.
The Joint Venture is a variable interest entity ("VIE") in which Bunge is considered to be the primary beneficiary because it is responsible for the day-to-day operating decisions of the Joint Venture as well as the marketing of the principal products, primarily soybean meal and oil produced and sold by the Joint Venture, among other factors.
The Joint Venture's assets can only be used to settle the Joint Venture’s own obligations and the Joint Venture’s creditors have no recourse to Bunge’s assets beyond Bunge’s maximum exposure to loss associated with the Joint Venture at any given time. The following table presents the values of the assets and liabilities associated with the Joint Venture, which are included in Bunge’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022. All amounts exclude intercompany balances, which have been eliminated upon consolidation.
For all other VIEs in which Bunge is considered the primary beneficiary, the entities meet the definition of a business, and the VIE's assets can be used other than for the settlement of the VIE’s obligations. As such these VIEs have been excluded from the below table:

Non-Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
On June 10, 2022, Bunge completed its acquisition of a 33% interest in Sinagro Produtos Agropecuários S.A. ("Sinagro"), a Brazilian distributor of agricultural inputs and originator of grains, in exchange for Brazilian real (R$) 273 million (approximately $52 million). As of June 30, 2022, the Company's maximum exposure to loss related to this unconsolidated VIE is limited to the investment balance of approximately $52 million. However, as part of the acquisition cost, Bunge has committed to provide certain future guarantees of Sinagro’s approximately R$730 million (approximately $139 million) third-party indebtedness in proportion to Bunge’s 33% equity holding, representing a maximum expected future guarantee of approximately R$243 million ($46 million).

For additional information on VIEs for which Bunge has determined it is not the primary beneficiary, along with the Company's related maximum exposure to losses associated with such investments, please refer to Note 11 - Investments in Affiliates, included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

10.    INCOME TAXES
    Income tax expense is provided on an interim basis based on management’s estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and includes the tax effects of certain discrete items, such as changes in tax laws or tax rates or other unusual or non-recurring tax adjustments in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, results from jurisdictions projecting a loss for the year where no tax benefit can be recognized are treated discretely in the interim period in which they occur. The effective tax rate is highly dependent on the geographic distribution of the Company’s worldwide earnings or losses and tax regulations in each jurisdiction. Management regularly monitors the assumptions used in estimating its annual effective tax rate, including the realizability of deferred tax assets, and adjusts estimates accordingly. Volatility in earnings within a taxing jurisdiction could result in a determination that additional valuation allowance adjustments may be warranted.
    Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $36 million and $144 million, respectively. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $50 million and $242 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to favorable earnings mix, and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to favorable earnings mix, incentives in South America, and the release of valuation allowances in Europe and Asia. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to favorable earnings mix and incentives in South and North America.
As a global enterprise, the Company files income tax returns that are subject to periodic examination and challenge by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities. In many jurisdictions, income tax examinations, including settlement negotiations or litigation, may take several years to finalize. The Company is currently under examination or litigation in various locations throughout the world. While it is difficult to predict the outcome or timing of resolution of any particular matter, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized.

Total$3,840 $3,425 
(1)    The Company records Advances on sales when cash payments are received in advance of the Company’s performance and recognizes revenue once the related performance obligation is completed. Advances on sales are impacted by the seasonality of Bunge's business, including the timing of harvests in the northern and southern hemispheres, and amounts at each balance sheet date will generally be recognized in earnings within twelve months or less.


12.    FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
    Bunge's various financial instruments include certain components of working capital such as trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable. Additionally, Bunge uses short- and long-term debt to fund operating requirements. Trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, and short-term debt are stated at their carrying value, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value. See Note 4 - Trade Structured Finance Program for trade structured finance program, Note 8- Other Non-Current Assets for long-term receivables from farmers in Brazil, net and other long-term investments, and Note 14- Debt for long-term debt. Bunge's financial instruments also include derivative instruments and marketable securities, which are stated at fair value.
    The fair value standard describes three levels within its hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value.
22

Table of Contents
LevelDescriptionFinancial Instrument (Assets / Liabilities)
Level 1Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Exchange traded derivative contracts.

Marketable securities in active markets.
Level 2Observable inputs, including adjusted Level 1 quotes, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are less active than traded exchanges and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Exchange traded derivative contracts (less liquid markets).

Readily marketable inventories.

Over-the-counter ("OTC") commodity purchase and sales contracts.

OTC derivatives whose value is determined using pricing models with inputs that are generally based on exchange traded prices, adjusted for location specific inputs that are primarily observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Marketable securities in less active markets.
Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are a significant component of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Assets and liabilities whose value is determined using proprietary pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques.

Assets and liabilities for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
    In many cases, a valuation technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level of input that is a significant component of the fair value measurement determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the classification of fair value assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy levels.
    For a further definition of fair value and the associated fair value levels, refer to Note 15 - Fair Value Measurements, included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(1)     These receivables and payables are hybrid financial instruments for which Bunge has elected the fair value option as they are derived from purchases and sales of agricultural commodity products in the normal course of business.
(2)     Unrealized gains on derivative contracts are generally included in Other current assets. There were $8 million and $49 million included in Other non-current assets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were $1 million and $2 million included in Assets held for sale at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
(3)    Other includes the fair values of marketable securities and investments in Other current assets and Other non-current assets.
(4)    Unrealized losses on derivative contracts are generally included in Other current liabilities. There were $230 million and $49 million included in Other non-current liabilities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were no unrealized losses on derivative contracts included in Liabilities held for sale at June 30, 2022 and $1 million was included in Liabilities held for sale at December 31, 2021.
    Readily marketable inventories—RMI reported at fair value are valued based on commodity futures exchange quotations, broker or dealer quotations, or market transactions in either listed or OTC markets with appropriate adjustments for differences in local markets where the Company's inventories are located. In such cases, the inventory is classified within Level 2. Certain inventories may utilize significant unobservable data related to local market adjustments to determine fair value. In such cases, the inventory is classified as Level 3.
    If the Company used different methods or factors to determine fair values, amounts reported as unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts and RMI at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of income could differ. Additionally, if market conditions change subsequent to the reporting date, amounts reported in future periods as unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts and RMI at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of income could differ.
24

Table of Contents
    Derivatives—The majority of exchange traded futures and options contracts and exchange cleared contracts are valued based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1. The majority of the Company’s exchange traded agricultural commodity futures are cash-settled on a daily basis and, therefore, are not included in these tables. The Company's forward commodity purchase and sales contracts are classified as derivatives along with other OTC derivative instruments, primarily relating to freight, energy, foreign exchange and interest rates, and are classified within Level 2 or Level 3 as described below. The Company estimates fair values based on exchange quoted prices, adjusted as appropriate for differences in local markets. These differences are generally valued using inputs from broker or dealer quotations, or market transactions in either the listed or OTC markets. In such cases, these derivative contracts are classified within Level 2.
    OTC derivative contracts include swaps, options, and structured transactions that are generally fair valued using quantitative models that require the use of multiple market inputs including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets which are not highly active, other observable inputs relevant to the asset or liability, and market inputs corroborated by correlation or other means. These valuation models include inputs such as interest rates, prices, and indices, to generate continuous yield or pricing curves and volatility factors. Where observable inputs are available for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, the instrument is categorized in Level 2. Certain OTC derivatives trade in less active markets with less availability of pricing information and certain structured transactions can require internally developed model inputs that might not be observable in or corroborated by the market.

Marketable securities and investments comprise government treasury securities, corporate debt securities and other investments. Bunge analyzes how the prices are derived and determines whether the prices are liquid or less liquid tradable prices. Marketable securities and investments with liquid prices are valued using prices from publicly available sources and classified as Level 1. Marketable securities and investments with less-liquid prices are valued using third-party quotes or pricing models and classified as Level 2 or Level 3 as described below.
    Level 3 Measurements
    The following relates to Level 3 measurements. An instrument may transfer into or out of Level 3 due to inputs becoming either observable or unobservable.
    Level 3 Measurements—Transfers in and/or out of Level 3 represent existing assets or liabilities that were either previously categorized as a higher level for which the inputs to the model became unobservable or assets and liabilities that were previously classified as Level 3 for which the lowest significant input became observable during the period. Bunge's policy regarding the timing of transfers between levels is to record the transfers at the beginning of the reporting period.
    Level 3 Readily marketable inventories and trade accounts payable—The significant unobservable inputs resulting in Level 3 classification for RMI, physically settled forward purchase and sales contracts, and trade accounts payable, relate to certain management estimations regarding costs of transportation and other local market or location-related adjustments, primarily freight related adjustments in the interior of Brazil and the lack of market corroborated information in Canada. In both situations, the Company uses proprietary information such as purchase and sales contracts and contracted prices to value freight, premiums and discounts in its contracts. Movements in the prices of these unobservable inputs alone would not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as these contracts do not typically exceed one future crop cycle.
    Level 3 Derivatives—Level 3 derivative instruments utilize both market observable and unobservable inputs within the fair value measurements. These inputs include commodity prices, price volatility, interest rates, volumes, and locations.
Level 3 Others—primarily relates to marketable securities and investments valued using third-party quotes or pricing models with inputs based on similar securities adjusted to reflect management’s best estimate of the specific characteristics of the securities held by the Company. Such inputs represent a significant component of the fair value of the securities held by the Company, resulting in the securities being classified as Level 3.
    The tables below present reconciliations for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. These instruments were valued using pricing models that management believes reflect the assumptions that would be used by a marketplace participant.

13.    DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
    The Company uses derivative instruments to manage several market risks, such as interest rate, foreign currency, and commodity risk. Some of those hedges the Company enters into qualify for hedge accounting in the financial statements (Hedge Accounting Derivatives) and some, while intended as economic hedges, do not qualify or are not designated for hedge accounting (Economic Hedge Derivatives). As these derivatives impact the financial statements in different ways, they are discussed separately below.
27

Table of Contents
    Hedge Accounting Derivatives - The Company uses derivatives in qualifying hedge accounting relationships to manage certain of its interest rate, foreign currency, and commodity risks. In executing these hedge strategies, the Company primarily relies on the shortcut and critical terms match methods in designing its hedge accounting strategy, which results in little to no net earnings impact for these hedge relationships. The Company monitors these relationships on a quarterly basis and performs a quantitative analysis to validate the assertion that the hedges are highly effective if there are changes to the hedged item or hedging derivative.
    Fair value hedges - These derivatives are used to hedge the effect of interest rate and currency exchange rate changes on certain long-term debt. Under fair value hedge accounting, the derivative is measured at fair value and the carrying value of hedged debt is adjusted for the change in value related to the exposure being hedged, with both adjustments offset to earnings. In other words, the earnings effect of a change in the fair value of the derivative will be substantially offset by the earnings effect of the change in the carrying value of the hedged debt. The net impact of fair value hedge accounting for interest rate swaps is recognized in Interest expense. For cross currency swaps the changes in currency risk on the derivative are recognized in Foreign exchange gains (losses), and the changes in interest rate risk are recognized in Interest expense. Changes in basis risk are held in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized through the coupon.
    Cash flow hedges of currency risk - The Company manages currency risk on certain forecasted purchases, sales, and selling, general and administrative expenses with currency forwards. The change in the value of the forward is held in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the transaction affects earnings, at which time the change in value of the currency forward is reclassified to Net sales, Cost of goods sold, or Selling, general and administrative expenses. These hedges mature at various times through April 2023. Of the amount currently in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), $4 million of deferred losses is expected to be reclassified to earnings in the next twelve months.
    Net investment hedges - The Company hedges the currency risk of certain of its foreign subsidiaries with currency forwards for which the currency risk is remeasured through Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). For currency forwards, the forward method is used. The change in the value of the forward is classified in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the transaction affects earnings by way of either sale or substantial liquidation of the foreign subsidiary.
    The table below provides information about the balance sheet values of hedged items and the notional amount of derivatives used in hedging strategies. The notional amount of the derivative is the number of units of the underlying (for example, the notional principal amount of the debt in an interest rate swap). The notional amount is used to compute interest or other payment streams to be made under the contract and is a measure of the Company’s level of activity. The Company discloses derivative notional amounts on a gross basis.

    Economic Hedge Derivatives - In addition to using derivatives in qualifying hedge relationships, the Company enters into derivatives to economically hedge its exposure to a variety of market risks it incurs in the normal course of operations.
    Interest rate derivatives are used to hedge exposures to the Company's financial instrument portfolios and debt issuances. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is primarily presented in Interest expense.

Table of Contents
    Currency derivatives are used to hedge the balance sheet and commercial exposures that arise from the Company's global operations. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is presented in Cost of goods sold when hedging commercial exposures and Foreign exchange gains (losses) when hedging monetary exposures.
    Agricultural commodity derivatives are used primarily to manage the Company's inventory and forward purchase and sales contracts. Contracts to purchase agricultural commodities generally relate to current or future crop years for delivery periods quoted by regulated commodity exchanges. Contracts for the sale of agricultural commodities generally do not extend beyond one future crop cycle. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is presented in Cost of goods sold.
    The Company uses derivative instruments referred to as forward freight agreements ("FFAs") and FFA options to hedge portions of its current and anticipated ocean freight costs. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is presented in Cost of goods sold.
    The Company uses energy derivative instruments to manage its exposure to volatility in energy costs. Hedges may be entered into for natural gas, electricity, coal and fuel oil, including bunker fuel. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is presented in Cost of goods sold.
    The Company may also enter into other derivatives, including credit default swaps, carbon emission derivatives and equity derivatives to manage its exposure to credit risk and broader macroeconomic risks, respectively. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is presented in Cost of goods sold.
    The table below summarizes the volume of economic derivatives as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. For those contracts traded bilaterally through the OTC markets (e.g., forwards, forward rate agreements ("FRAs"), swaps, and variable interests rate obligations), the gross position is provided. For exchange traded (e.g., futures, FFAs and options) and cleared positions (e.g., energy swaps), the net position is provided.

14.    DEBT
Bunge’s $600 million commercial paper program is supported by an identical amount of committed back-up bank credit lines (the "Liquidity Facility") provided by banks that are rated at least A-1 by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services and P-1 by Moody’s Investors Service. The cost of borrowing under the Liquidity Facility would typically be higher than the cost of issuing under Bunge’s commercial paper program. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program and no borrowings under the Liquidity Facility, respectively. The Liquidity Facility is Bunge's only revolving credit facility that requires lenders to maintain minimum credit ratings. The Liquidity Facility is set to expire on July 16, 2026.
Bunge had no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 under the unsecured $1 billion 364-day Revolving Credit Agreement (the "$1 Billion Credit Agreement") with a group of lenders, that matured on July 15, 2022. On July 15, 2022, Bunge entered into an unsecured $1.1 billion 364-day Revolving Credit Agreement (the "$1.1 Billion Credit Agreement"), with a group of lenders, maturing on July 14, 2023. Bunge may from time-to-time request one or more of the existing or new lenders to increase the total participations under the $1.1 Billion Credit Agreement by an aggregate amount up to $250 million pursuant to an accordion provision. Borrowings will bear interest at the daily simple or term SOFR plus an applicable margin, as defined in the $1.1 Billion Credit Agreement. The $1.1 Billion Credit Agreement replaces the existing $1 Billion Credit Agreement.
Bunge had no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 under the unsecured committed $1.35 billion 5-year Revolving Credit Agreement (the "$1.35 Billion Credit Agreement") with a group of lenders, maturing July 16, 2026. Bunge may, from time to time, request one or more of the existing or new lenders to increase the total commitments under the $1.35 Billion Credit Agreement by an aggregate amount up to $200 million pursuant to an accordion provision. Borrowings will bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, as defined in the $1.35 Billion Credit Agreement.
Bunge had no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 under the unsecured $865 million Revolving Credit Agreement (the "$865 Million 2026 Facility") with a group of lenders, set to mature on October 29, 2026. Borrowings will bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, as defined in the $865 Million 2026 Facility.
Bunge had no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 under the unsecured $1.75 billion Revolving Credit Facility ("$1.75 Billion Revolving Credit Facility"), set to mature on December 16, 2024. The interest rate under the $1.75 Billion Revolving Credit Facility is tied to certain sustainability criteria, including, but not limited to, recently established science-based targets that define Bunge's climate goals within its operations and a commitment to a deforestation-free supply chain in 2025. Bunge may from time to time, with the consent of the agent, request one or more of the existing lenders or new lenders to increase the total commitments by an amount not to exceed $250 million pursuant to an accordion provision set forth in the $1.75 Billion Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the $1.75 Billion Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin, which will vary from 0.30% to 1.30%, based on the senior long-term unsecured debt ratings provided by Moody’s Investors Services Inc. and S&P Global Ratings. Bunge will also pay a fee that will vary from 0.10% to 0.40% based on its utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility.
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Bunge had $5,815 million unused and available committed borrowing capacity under committed revolving credit facilities and the commercial paper program, totaling $5,565 million, in addition to a committed unsecured $250 million delayed draw term loan, as discussed below.
In addition to committed facilities, from time to time, Bunge Limited and/or its financing subsidiaries enter into uncommitted bilateral short-term credit lines as necessary based on financing requirements. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 there were $1,150 million in borrowings and no borrowings, respectively, outstanding under these bilateral short-term credit lines. Loans under such credit lines are non-callable by the respective lenders. In addition, Bunge's operating companies had $1,004 million and $673 million in short-term borrowings outstanding under local bank lines of credit at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, to support working capital requirements.
The fair value of Bunge’s long-term debt is based on interest rates currently available on comparable maturities to companies with credit standing similar to that of Bunge. The carrying amounts and fair value of long-term debt are as follows:

On February 23, 2022, Bunge issued a notice of redemption for all of the issued and outstanding 4.35% unsecured senior notes (the "4.35% Senior Notes") due March 15, 2024. The redemption for the 4.35% Senior Notes occurred on March 10, 2022. In connection with the redemption, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a $47 million

charge within Interest expense, of which $31 million related to a "make-whole" provision based on the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 4.35% Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the March 10, 2022 redemption date, and $16 million related to the reclassification of unrealized mark-to-market losses on terminated and de-designated interest rate hedges.
On October 29, 2021, Bunge entered into an unsecured $250 million delayed draw term loan (the "$250 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan") with a group of lenders that is required to be drawn by October 27, 2022. The $250 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, as defined in the $250 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan agreement. The $250 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan matures on October 29, 2028 and was not drawn as of June 30, 2022.
On July 26, 2022, Bunge entered into an unsecured $750 million delayed draw term loan (the "$750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan") with a group of lenders giving Bunge the option to draw the loan prior to October 26, 2022. The $750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan will bear interest at daily simple SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment and applicable margin, as defined in the $750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan agreement. The $750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan matures on the third anniversary of the drawdown date.

15.    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Bunge purchases agricultural commodity products from certain of its unconsolidated investees and other related parties. Such related party purchases comprised approximately 7% or less of total Cost of goods sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Bunge also sells agricultural commodity products to certain of its unconsolidated investees and other related parties. Such related party sales comprised approximately 2% or less of total Net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
In addition, Bunge receives services from and provides services to its unconsolidated investees and other related parties, including tolling, port handling, administrative support, and other services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, such services were not material to the Company's consolidated results.
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, receivables related to the above related party transactions comprised approximately 2% or less of total Trade accounts receivable. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, payables related to the above related party transactions comprised approximately 5% or less of total Trade accounts payable.
Bunge believes all transaction values to be similar to those that would be conducted with third parties.

16.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Bunge is party to claims and lawsuits, primarily non-income tax and labor claims in South America, arising in the normal course of business. Bunge is also involved from time to time in various contract, antitrust, environmental litigation and remediation, and other litigation, claims, government investigations, and legal proceedings. The ability to predict the ultimate outcome of such matters involves judgments, estimates and inherent uncertainties. Bunge records liabilities related to legal matters when the exposure item becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Bunge management does not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on Bunge’s financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity. However, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the remote possibility that a liability arising from these matters could have a material adverse impact in the period in which the uncertainties are resolved should the liability substantially exceed the amount of provisions included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Information regarding the claims appears in Bunge’s Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Included in Other non-current liabilities as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are the following amounts related to these matters:

The terms of the guarantees are equal to the terms of the related financings, which have maturity dates through 2034. There are no recourse provisions or collateral that would enable Bunge to recover any amounts paid under these guarantees. In addition, certain Bunge subsidiaries have guaranteed the obligations of certain of their unconsolidated affiliates and in connection therewith have secured their guarantee obligations through a pledge to the financial institutions of certain of their unconsolidated affiliates' shares plus loans receivable from the unconsolidated affiliates in the event that the guaranteed obligations are enforced. Based on amounts drawn under such debt facilities at June 30, 2022, Bunge's potential liability was $230 million, and it has recorded a $5 million obligation related to these guarantees within Other non-current liabilities.
(2)    Bunge has issued guarantees to certain financial institutions that are party to certain operating lease arrangements for railcars, barges, and buildings. These guarantees provide for a minimum residual value to be received by the lessor at the conclusion of the lease term. These leases expire at various dates from 2022 through 2029. At June 30, 2022, no obligation has been recorded related to these guarantees. Any obligation recorded would be recognized in Current operating lease obligations or Non-current operating lease obligations.

Following the transition, the Company accounts for the multi-employer plan similar to a defined contribution plan, resulting in full settlement of the related defined benefit plan obligations.
In connection with the settlement, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a $41 million pretax gain within Other income (expense) - net in its condensed consolidated statements of income, comprising a $4 million settlement of the related defined benefit plan obligations as well as the reclassification of $37 million in unamortized actuarial gains from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Of this pretax gain, $12 million was attributable to Redeemable non-controlling interests.
(2)See Note 10- Income Taxes.
(3)See Note 12 - Fair Value Measurements.

18.    REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST
In connection with the acquisition of a 70% ownership interest in Bunge Loders Croklaan Group B.V. ("Loders"), the Company has entered into a put/call arrangement with the Loders minority shareholder and may be required or elect to purchase the additional 30% ownership interest in Loders within a specified time frame.
The Company classifies these redeemable equity securities outside of permanent stockholders’ equity as the equity securities are redeemable at the option of the holder. The carrying amount of Redeemable noncontrolling interests is the greater of: (i) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interests’ share of net income or loss, equity capital contributions and distributions or (ii) the redemption value. Any resulting increases in the redemption amount, in excess of the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interests’ share of net income or loss, equity capital contributions and distributions, are affected via a charge against Retained earnings. Additionally, any such charges to Retained earnings will affect Net income (loss) available to Bunge common shareholders as part of Bunge's calculation of earnings per common share.

19.    EQUITY
Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preference Shares — On March 18, 2022, Bunge announced all issued and outstanding shares of its 4.875% Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preference Shares ("convertible preference shares") would automatically convert into common shares of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, effective March 23, 2022 (the "Conversion Date"). On March 18, 2022, the closing price of the common shares of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") was $104.91, marking the 20th trading day in the previous 30 trading days that the closing price of the common shares of the Company exceeded 130% of the conversion price, triggering the Company's right under the certificate of designation for the convertible preference shares, at its option, to mandatorily convert the convertible preference shares. The conversion price adjusted from $78.1322, per Note 24 - Equity included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, to $77.8482 on February 16, 2022.
36

Table of Contents
Each convertible preference share automatically converted into 1.2846 common shares of the Company on the Conversion Date and cash was paid in lieu of fractional common shares of the Company. There were 6,898,268 convertible preference shares issued and outstanding prior to the conversion, which resulted in the issuance of 8,861,515 new common shares of the Company. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2022 prior to the conversion, 1,415 convertible preference shares were voluntarily converted by preference shareholders into 1,816 common shares. As a result of the conversions, no convertible preference shares were issued or outstanding as of June 30, 2022, and all rights of the former holders of the convertible preference shares terminated, as of March 23, 2022.
Dividends on the convertible preference shares ceased to accrue on the Conversion Date. Accordingly, holders of the convertible preference shares were not entitled to receive the $1.21875 per share dividend declared by the Company in respect of the convertible preference shares on February 23, 2022 and payable to holders of record on May 15, 2022. Following the conversion, holders of the convertible preference shares as of the Conversion Date were entitled to receive the $0.525 per share dividend declared by the Company with respect to the common shares on February 23, 2022, but only to the extent such holder remained a holder of record of common shares of the Company on May 19, 2022.
Dividends on common shares — On May 12, 2022, Bunge announced that the Company's Board of Directors had declared a dividend of $0.625 per common share, payable on September 2, 2022 to shareholders of record on August 19, 2022. The $0.625 per common share dividend represents a $0.10, or 19%, increase from the Company's previous quarterly cash dividend of $0.525. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors declared total dividends on common shares of $1.15 per common share.

(1)    Effective March 23, 2022 (the "Conversion Date"), in accordance with the terms of the certificate of designation governing the convertible preference shares, all of the Company's issued and outstanding convertible preference shares were automatically converted into 1.2846 common shares of the Company, par value $0.01 per share. As a result of this conversion, dividends on the convertible preference shares ceased to accrue on the Conversion Date. Accordingly, holders of the convertible preference shares were not entitled to receive the $1.21875 per share dividend declared by the Company in respect of the convertible preference shares on February 23, 2022 and payable to holders of record on May 15, 2022, and no convertible preference shares were issued or outstanding as of June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 19 - Equity for further information.

The weighted-average common shares outstanding-diluted exclude approximately zero and 2 million stock options and contingently issuable restricted stock units, which were not dilutive and not included in the computation of earnings per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

21.    SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's operations are organized, managed, and classified into four reportable segments - Agribusiness, Refined and Specialty Oils, Milling, and Sugar and Bioenergy, based upon their similar economic characteristics, products and services offered, production processes, types and classes of customer, and distribution methods. The Company’s remaining operations are not reportable segments, as defined by the applicable accounting standard, and are classified as Corporate and Other.
The Agribusiness reportable segment is characterized by both inputs and outputs being agricultural commodities and thus high volume and low margin. The Refined and Specialty Oils reportable segment involves the processing, production, and marketing of products derived from vegetable oils. The Milling reportable segment involves the processing, production, and marketing of products derived primarily from wheat and corn. The Sugar and Bioenergy reportable segment primarily comprises the net earnings in the Company’s 50% interest in BP Bunge Bioenergia, a joint venture with BP p.l.c. ("BP").
Corporate and Other includes salaries and overhead for corporate functions that are not allocated to the Company’s individual reporting segments because the operating performance of each reporting segment is evaluated by the Company's chief operating decision maker exclusive of these items, as well as certain other activities, including Bunge Ventures, as well as the Company's captive insurance activities, securitization program, and certain income tax assets and liabilities.
Transfers between segments are generally valued at market. Segment revenues generated from these transfers are shown in the following table as “Inter-segment revenues.”

(2)     Total segment earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") is an operating performance measure used by Bunge’s management to evaluate segment operating activities. Bunge’s management believes Total Segment EBIT is a useful measure of operating profitability, since the measure allows for an evaluation of the performance of its segments without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. In addition, Total Segment EBIT is a financial measure that is widely used by analysts and investors in Bunge’s industry. However, Total Segment EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Further, Total Segment EBIT is not a measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income (loss) or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP. See the reconciliation of Total Segment EBIT to Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge in the table below.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
Total segment earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") is an operating performance measure used by Bunge’s management to evaluate segment operating activities. Bunge also uses Core Segment EBIT, Non-core Segment EBIT and Total Segment EBIT to evaluate the operating performance of Bunge’s Core reportable segments, Non-core reportable segments, and Total reportable segments together with our Corporate and Other activities. Core Segment EBIT is the aggregate of the earnings before interest and taxes of each of Bunge’s Agribusiness, Refined and Specialty Oils, and Milling segments. Non-core Segment EBIT is the earnings before interest and taxes of Bunge’s Sugar & Bioenergy segment. Total Segment EBIT is the aggregate of the earnings before interest and taxes of Bunge’s Core and Non-core reportable segments, together with its corporate and other activities. Bunge’s management believes Core Segment EBIT, Non-core Segment EBIT and Total Segment EBIT are useful measures of operating profitability since the measures allow for an evaluation of the performance of its segments without regard to financing methods or capital structure. In addition, EBIT is a financial measure that is widely used by analysts and investors in Bunge’s industry. Total Segment EBIT is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Further, Total Segment EBIT excludes EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interests and is not a measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income (loss) or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP. See the reconciliation of Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge to Total Segment EBIT below.
Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, adjusted is calculated by including the Proceeds from beneficial interests in securitized trade receivables with Cash provided by (used for) operating activities. Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, adjusted is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Our management believes presentation of this measure allows investors to view our cash generating performance using the same measure that management uses in evaluating financial and business performance and trends.
Executive Summary
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Bunge - For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Net income attributable to Bunge was $206 million, a decrease of $156 million compared to $362 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Net income attributable to Bunge was $894 million, a decrease of $300 million, compared to $1,194 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were due to lower Segment EBIT in our Core segments and Corporate and Other activities, as further discussed in the Segment Overview & Results of Operations section below.
Earnings Per Common Share - Diluted - For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Net income attributable to Bunge common shareholders, diluted, was $1.34 per share, a decrease of $1.03 per share, compared to income of $2.37 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Net income attributable to Bunge common shareholders, diluted, was $5.81 per share, a decrease of $2.04 per share, compared to income of $7.85 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
EBIT - For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Total Segment EBIT was $322 million, a decrease of $137 million compared to Total Segment EBIT of $459 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Total Segment EBIT was $1,215 million, a decrease of $330 million compared to Total Segment EBIT of $1,545 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreases in Total Segment EBIT for the three and six
44

Table of Contents
months ended June 30, 2022 were due to lower Segment EBIT in our Core segments and Corporate and Other activities, as further discussed in the Segment Overview & Results of Operations section below.
Income Tax (Expense) Benefit - Income tax expense was $36 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to income tax expense of $50 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Income tax expense was $144 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $242 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreases in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily due to lower pretax income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources – At June 30, 2022, working capital, which equals Total current assets less Total current liabilities, was $6,631 million, a decrease of $603 million, compared to working capital of $7,234 million at June 30, 2021, and a decrease of $505 million, compared to working capital of $7,136 million at December 31, 2021. The decreases in working capital at June 30, 2022 compared to June 30, 2021 and compared to December 31, 2021, were primarily due to an increase in the current portion of long-term debt due to the reclassification from long-term debt of the current portion of our 1.85% Senior Notes, due 2023.
Segment Overview & Results of Operations
Our operations are organized, managed and classified into four reportable segments based upon their similar economic characteristics, nature of products and services offered, production processes, types and classes of customer, and distribution methods. We further organize these reportable segments into Core operations and Non-core operations. Core operations comprise our Agribusiness, Refined and Specialty Oils, and Milling segments. Non-core operations comprise our Sugar & Bioenergy segment, which itself primarily comprises the Company’s 50% interest in the net earnings of BP Bunge Bioenergia, a joint venture with BP p.l.c. ("BP").
Our remaining operations are not reportable segments, as defined by the applicable accounting standard, and are classified as Corporate and Other. Corporate and Other includes salaries and overhead for corporate functions that are not allocated to our individual reportable segments because the operating performance of each reportable segment is evaluated by the Company's chief operating decision maker exclusive of these items, as well as certain other activities including Bunge Ventures, the Company's captive insurance activities and securitization program, as well as certain income tax assets and liabilities.
Effective January 1, 2022, we changed our methodology for reporting volumetric data for our reportable segments to simplify and more closely align our volume reporting with our primary income-generating activities. The primary change comprises the elimination of grain and oilseed volumes originated from our suppliers. Volumes are now reported as follows:
In our Agribusiness segment, reported Processing volumes comprise oilseed volumes crushed (processed) during a period, which approximate sales volumes to third parties during the same period, and Merchandising volumes represent sales volumes to third party customers.
Refined and Specialty Oils segment volumes represent sales volumes to third party customers.
Milling segment volumes represent feedstock ground (processed) during a period, again approximating sales volumes during the same period.
No volumes will be reported for our Sugar and Bioenergy segment, which primarily comprises the Company's net earnings from its 50% interest in BP Bunge Bioenergia, or our Corporate and Other activities, which have no material revenue-generating activities.
Certain reclassifications of prior period volumes have been made to conform to current presentation.

In Processing, Net sales increased $812 million, primarily due to higher average sales prices in our soybean processing businesses in all regions and in our European softseed processing businesses, both primarily resulting

Table of Contents
from higher global commodity prices following the onset of the Ukraine-Russia war, which exacerbated an already tight commodity supply environment. The above increases were partially offset by lower overall sales volumes, as lower volumes in our European softseed processing businesses, due to the Ukraine-Russia war, more than offset higher volumes in our soybean processing businesses in all regions.

In Merchandising, Net sales increased $281 million, primarily due to higher average sales prices in our global corn, wheat and oils businesses, as a result of higher global commodity prices following the onset of the Ukraine-Russia war, which exacerbated an already tight commodity supply environment, and strong execution and higher prices in our ocean freight business. The above increases were partially offset by lower overall sales volumes, due to both the Ukraine-Russia war and the completion of the sale of a portfolio of grain elevators in the interior of the United States during the third quarter of 2021.
Cost of goods sold increased $1,187 million, or 11%, to $12,431 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $11,244 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The net increase was primarily due to the following:
In Processing, Cost of goods sold increased $957 million, primarily due to higher average commodity prices, as noted in Net sales above, increased industrial input costs, in particular energy, unfavorable mark-to-market results, as well as $44 million in charges for losses sustained in relation to the Ukraine-Russia war, primarily related to inventories physically located in occupied territories in Ukraine, or in difficult to access locations with high costs of recovery.
In Merchandising, Cost of goods sold increased $230 million, primarily due to the higher average commodity prices, as noted in Net sales above, as well as $25 million in charges for losses sustained in relation to the Ukraine-Russia war, primarily related to inventories physically located in occupied territories in Ukraine, or in difficult to access locations with high costs of recovery, partially offset by more favorable mark-to-market results, primarily in our ocean freight business, when compared to the prior year period.
Gross profit decreased $94 million, or 23%, to $316 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $410 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The net decrease was primarily due to the following:
In Processing, a decrease of $145 million was due to higher Cost of goods sold in excess of higher Net sales, primarily driven by higher industrial input costs, in particular energy, as well as unfavorable mark-to-market results, as described above.
In Merchandising, an increase of $51 million was due to higher Net sales in excess of higher Cost of goods sold, primarily driven by strong execution and higher prices in our ocean freight business and more favorable mark-to-market results, again primarily in our ocean freight business, compared to the prior year period.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased $5 million, or 4%, to $119 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $114 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by increased variable incentive costs.
Foreign exchange results decreased $129 million, or 358%, to a loss of $93 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a gain of $36 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Foreign exchange results were primarily driven by losses on U.S. dollar denominated loans payable in non-U.S. functional currency operations, due to a strengthening U.S. dollar.
Other income (expense) - net decreased $38 million, to expense of $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to income of $24 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $5 million loss on marketable securities and other short-term investments with exposures to Ukraine, following the onset of the Ukraine-Russia war, as well as lower results from our financial services activities.
Segment EBIT decreased $271 million, or 74%, to $93 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $364 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The net decrease was primarily due to the following:
In Processing, a decrease of $327 million was primarily due to lower Gross profit, higher SG&A, lower Foreign exchange results and lower Other income (expense) - net, as described above.
In Merchandising, an increase of $56 million was primarily due to higher Gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A and lower Other income (expense) - net, as described above.

Segment EBIT decreased $13 million, or 68%, to $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $19 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due to less favorable results from our investment in BP Bunge Bioenergia as higher average ethanol and sugar sales prices were outpaced by inflationary increases in cost in the current period as well as by lower sales volumes.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Segment EBIT increased by $1 million, or 3%, to $40 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $39 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The relatively flat result was because higher overall ethanol prices and foreign exchange gains on U.S. dollar denominated debt of the joint venture, during the first quarter, due to an appreciation in the Brazilian real versus the U.S. dollar, were offset by lower results in the second quarter driven by the factors discussed above.

pricing mechanisms. Total RMI reported at fair value was $8,378 million, $6,869 million, and $6,930 at June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively (see Note 6 - Inventories to our condensed consolidated financial statements).
Other current assets - Other current assets were $6,006 million at June 30, 2022, an increase of $991 million from $5,015 million at December 31, 2021, and a decrease of $99 million from $6,105 million at June 30, 2021. The increase from December 31, 2021 was primarily due to significantly higher unrealized gains on derivative contracts, higher margin deposits, and an increase in the deferred purchase price receivable due to increased trade accounts receivable transfers under our securitization program, partially offset by a decrease in marketable securities and other short-term investments due to a decrease in investments with Ukrainian exposures following the onset of the Ukraine-Russia war. The decrease from June 30, 2021 was primarily due to lower unrealized gains on derivative contracts, lower marketable securities and other short-term investments due to a decrease in investments with Ukrainian exposures following the onset of the Ukraine-Russia war, and lower assets held for sale following the sale of our United States interior grain elevators during the second half of 2021, partially offset by higher margin deposits and an increase in deferred purchase price receivable, due to increased trade accounts receivable transfers under our securitization program.
Short-term debt - Short-term debt, including the current portion of long-term debt, was $3,457 million at June 30, 2022, an increase of $2,280 million from $1,177 million at December 31, 2021, and an increase of $1,598 million from $1,859 million at June 30, 2021. The higher short-term debt levels at June 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 are due to higher working capital funding requirements, primarily purchases of RMI as described above, as well as an increase in the Current portion of long-term debt due to the current period reclassification from long-term debt of the current portion of our 1.85% Senior Notes, due 2023.
Trade accounts payable - Trade accounts payable were $5,347 million at June 30, 2022, an increase of $1,097 million from $4,250 million at December 31, 2021, and an increase of $1,713 million from $3,634 million at June 30, 2021. The increases from December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 were primarily due to higher average inventory prices during the current period.
Other current liabilities - Other current liabilities were $3,901 million at June 30, 2022, an increase of $354 million from $3,547 million at December 31, 2021, and a decrease of $662 million from $4,563 million at June 30, 2021. The increase from December 31, 2021 was primarily due to higher unrealized losses on derivative contracts during the current period. The decrease from June 30, 2021 was primarily due to lower unrealized losses on derivative contracts compared to the prior year.

Financing Arrangements and Outstanding Indebtedness - We conduct most of our financing activities through a centralized financing structure that provides the Company with efficient access to debt and capital markets. This structure includes a master trust, the primary assets of which comprise intercompany loans made to Bunge Limited and its subsidiaries. Certain of Bunge Limited’s 100% owned finance subsidiaries, including Bunge Limited Finance Corp., Bunge Finance Europe B.V., and Bunge Asset Funding Corp., fund the master trust with short and long-term debt obtained from third parties, including through our commercial paper program and certain credit facilities, as well as the issuance of senior notes. Borrowings by these finance subsidiaries carry full, unconditional guarantees by Bunge Limited.
    Revolving Credit Facilities - At June 30, 2022, we had $5,815 million unused and available committed borrowing capacity, comprising committed revolving credit facilities and a commercial paper program, totaling $5,565 million, as well as a committed unsecured $250 million delayed draw term loan. The following table summarizes these facilities as of the periods presented:

The $250 million delayed draw term loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, as defined in the $250 million delayed draw term loan agreement (see Note 14- Debt).
Short and long-term debt - Our short and long-term debt increased by $555 million to $6,519 million at June 30, 2022, from $5,964 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to increased working capital funding requirements, mostly comprising RMI. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our average short and long-term debt outstanding was approximately $6,559 million, compared to approximately $7,770 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Our long-term debt balance, including the current portion of long-term debt, was $4,365 million at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $926 million, compared to $5,291 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the early redemption during the current period of all of our issued and outstanding 4.35% Senior Notes due 2024.

On July 26, 2022, we entered into an unsecured $750 million delayed draw term loan (the "$750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan") with a group of lenders giving Bunge the option to draw the loan prior to October 26, 2022. The $750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan will bear interest at Daily Simple SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment and applicable margin, as defined in the $750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan agreement. The $750 Million Delayed Draw Term Loan matures on the third anniversary of the drawdown date.
From time to time, through our financing subsidiaries, we enter into bilateral short-term credit lines as necessary based on our financing requirements. At June 30, 2022, there were $1,150 million borrowings outstanding under these bilateral short-term credit lines. In addition, Bunge's operating companies had $1,004 million and $673 million in short-term borrowings outstanding from local bank lines of credit at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, to support working capital requirements.

Total Bunge shareholders’ equity was $8,732 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $7,669 million at December 31, 2021, an increase of $1,063 million. The increase was primarily due to $894 million of Net income attributable to Bunge, $234 million in Additional paid-in capital on formation of a joint venture, Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC, $35 million of Other comprehensive income as described in Note 19 - Equity, $32 million of stock-based compensation expense, and $44 million from the issuance of common shares under our share based compensation programs, partially offset by $176 million of declared dividends to common shareholders.
Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preference Shares — On March 18, 2022, we announced all issued and outstanding shares of our 4.875% Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preference Shares ("convertible preference shares") would automatically convert into common shares of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, effective March 23, 2022 (the "Conversion Date"). On March 18, 2022, the closing price of the common shares of the Company on the NYSE was $104.91, marking the 20th trading day in the previous 30 trading days that the closing price of the common shares of the Company exceeded 130% of the conversion price, triggering our right under the certificate of designation for the convertible preference shares, at our option, to mandatorily convert the convertible preference shares. The conversion price adjusted from $78.1322, per Note 24 - Equity included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, to $77.8482 on February 16, 2022.
Each convertible preference share automatically converted into 1.2846 common shares of the Company on the Conversion Date and cash was paid in lieu of fractional common shares of the Company. There were 6,898,268 convertible preference shares issued and outstanding prior to the conversion, which resulted in the issuance of 8,861,515 new common shares of the Company. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2022, prior to the conversion, 1,415 convertible preference shares were voluntarily converted by preference shareholders into 1,816 common shares. As a result of the conversions, no convertible preference shares are issued or outstanding, and all rights of the former holders of the convertible preference shares terminated as of March 23, 2022.
Share repurchase program - During October 2021, our Board of Directors approved a new program for the repurchase of up to $500 million of our issued and outstanding common shares. The program has no expiration date. There were no shares repurchased under this program during the three or six months ended June 30, 2022.

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash$(82)$123 
Our cash flows from operations vary depending on, among other items, the market prices and timing of purchases and sales of our inventories. Generally, during periods when commodity prices are rising, our Agribusiness operations require increased use of cash to support working capital to acquire inventories and fund daily settlement requirements on exchange traded futures that we use to minimize price risk related to purchases and sales of our inventories.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased by $82 million, compared to an increase of $123 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Operating: Cash used for operating activities was $4,457 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $3,021 million, compared to $1,436 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in Cash used for operating activities was primarily due to lower Net income, as well as higher working capital funding requirements and increased beneficial interest in securitized trade receivables, driven by higher commodity prices during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, adjusted for net proceeds from beneficial interests in securitized trade receivables, was cash used of $1,146 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to cash provided of $436 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change was primarily due to lower Net income and higher working capital funding requirements, partially offset by higher net proceeds from beneficial interests in securitized trade receivables during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Certain of our non-U.S. operating subsidiaries are primarily funded with U.S. dollar-denominated debt, while currency risk is hedged with U.S. dollar-denominated assets. The functional currency of our operating subsidiaries is generally the local currency. The financial statements of our subsidiaries are calculated in the functional currency, and when the local currency is the functional currency, translated into U.S. dollars. U.S. dollar-denominated loans are remeasured into their respective functional currencies at exchange rates at the applicable balance sheet date. Also, certain of our U.S. dollar functional operating subsidiaries outside the U.S. are partially funded with local currency borrowings, while the currency risk is hedged with local currency denominated assets. Local currency loans in U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries outside the U.S. are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the applicable balance sheet date. The resulting gain or loss is included in our condensed consolidated statements of income as Foreign exchange (losses) gains. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a foreign currency gain on our debt of $6 million, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a foreign currency gain on our debt of $133 million, which were included as adjustments to reconcile net income to cash used for operating activities in the line item "foreign exchange (gain) loss on net debt" in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These adjustments are required as the gains and losses are non-cash items that arise from financing activities and therefore will have no impact on cash flows from operations.
Investing: Cash provided by investing activities was $2,867 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $978 million, compared to cash provided by investing activities of $1,889 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher net proceeds from beneficial interests in securitized trade receivables, partially offset by lower proceeds from disposals of businesses and property, plant and equipment following the sales of our oils facilities in Rotterdam and Mexico during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Financing: Cash provided by financing activities was $1,445 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a $1,675 million change, compared to cash used for financing activities of $230 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we received net cash proceeds from short and long-term debt of $998 million. Short-term debt is primarily used to fund seasonal working capital requirements, mostly comprising RMI, which increased during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, we received $521 million from the sale of a noncontrolling interest in relation to the formation of a joint venture, Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC, as described in Note 1 - Basis of Presentation, Principles of Consolidation, And Significant Accounting Policies, and received $44 million of proceeds from the exercise of options for common shares, partially offset by $162 million of dividend payments to our common and preferred shareholders. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we received $30 million of net cash proceeds from short and long-term debt, received $72 million of proceeds from the exercise of options for common shares, paid $147 million to acquire the noncontrolling equity interests of our Polish subsidiary, Z.T. Kruszwica S.A., and paid $158 million in dividends to our common and preferred shareholders.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Please refer to Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies to our condensed consolidated financial statements for details concerning our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Dividends
    We paid a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.525 per share on June 2, 2022 to common shareholders of record on May 19, 2022. On May 12, 2022, Bunge announced that the Company's Board of Directors had declared a dividend of $0.625 per common share, payable on September 2, 2022 to shareholders of record on August 19, 2022. The $0.625 per common share dividend represents a $0.10, or 19%, increase from the Company's previous quarterly cash dividend of $0.525.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Risk Management
As a result of our global activities, we are exposed to changes in, among other things, agricultural commodity prices, transportation costs, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, energy costs, and inflationary pressures, which may affect our results of operations and financial position. We actively monitor and manage these various market risks associated with our business activities. Our risk management decisions take place in various locations, but exposure limits are centrally set and monitored, operating under a global governance framework. Additionally, our Board of Directors' Enterprise Risk Management Committee oversees our global market risk governance framework, including risk management policies and limits.
We use derivative instruments for the purpose of managing the exposures associated with commodity prices, transportation costs, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, energy costs, and for positioning our overall portfolio relative to expected market movements in accordance with established policies and procedures. We enter into derivative instruments, primarily with commodity exchanges in the case of commodity futures and options, major financial institutions, or approved exchange clearing shipping companies in the case of ocean freight. While these derivative instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, for hedged exposures those fluctuations are generally offset by the changes in fair value of the underlying exposures. The derivative instruments that we use for hedging purposes are intended to reduce the volatility of our results of operations. However, they can occasionally result in earnings volatility, which may be material. See Note 13 - Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed discussion of our use of derivative instruments.
Credit and Counterparty Risk
Through our normal business activities, we are subject to significant credit and counterparty risks that arise through commercial sales and purchases, including forward commitments to buy or sell, and through various other over-the-counter ("OTC") derivative instruments that we use to manage risks inherent in our business activities. We define credit and counterparty risk as a potential financial loss due to the failure of a counterparty to honor its obligations. The exposure is measured based upon several factors, including unpaid accounts receivable from counterparties, as well as unrealized gains from forward purchase or sales contracts and OTC derivative instruments. Credit and counterparty risk also includes sovereign credit risk. We actively monitor credit and counterparty risk through regular reviews of exposures and credit analysis by regional credit teams, as well as a review by global and corporate committees that monitor counterparty performance. We record provisions for counterparty losses from time to time as a result of our credit and counterparty analysis.
During periods of tight conditions in global credit markets, downturns in regional or global economic conditions, and/or significant price volatility, credit and counterparty risks are heightened. This increased risk is monitored through, among other things, exposure reporting, increased communication with key counterparties, management reviews, and a specific focus on counterparties or groups of counterparties that we may determine as high risk. We have reduced exposures and associated position limits in certain cases, and also decreased our use of non-exchange cleared derivative instruments.
Commodities Risk
We operate in many areas of the food industry, from agricultural raw materials to the production and sale of branded food products. As a result, we purchase and produce various materials, many of which are agricultural commodities, including: soybeans, soybean oil, soybean meal, palm oil (from crude to various degrees of refined products), softseeds (including sunflower seed, rapeseed and canola) and related oil and meal derived from them, wheat, barley, shea nut, and corn. Agricultural commodities are subject to price fluctuations due to a number of unpredictable factors, including inflationary pressures, that may create price risk. As described above, we are also subject to the risk of counterparty non-performance under forward purchase and sales contracts. From time to time, we have experienced instances of counterparty non-performance as a result of significant declines in counterparty profitability under these contracts due to movements in commodity prices between the time the contracts were entered into and the contractual forward delivery period.
We enter into various derivative contracts with the primary objective of managing our exposure to adverse price movements in the agricultural commodities used and produced in our business operations. We have established policies that limit the amount of unhedged fixed price agricultural commodity positions permissible for our operating companies, which are generally a combination of volumetric, drawdown, and value-at-risk ("VaR") limits. We measure and review our commodity positions on a daily basis. We also employ stress-testing techniques in order to quantify our exposures to price and liquidity risks under non-normal or event driven market conditions.
Our daily net agricultural commodity position consists of inventory, forward purchase and sales contracts, and OTC and exchange-traded derivative instruments, including those used to hedge portions of our production requirements. The fair value
61

Table of Contents
of that position is a summation of the fair values of each agricultural commodity, calculated by valuing all of our commodity positions for the period at quoted market prices, where available, or by utilizing a close proxy. VaR is calculated on the net position and monitored at the 95% confidence interval. In addition, scenario analysis and stress testing are performed. For example, one measure of market risk is estimated as the potential loss in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in prices. The results of this analysis, which may differ from actual results, are as follows:

Lowest daily aggregated position value$494 $(49)$(3)$— 
Ocean Freight Risk
Ocean freight represents a significant portion of our operating costs. The market price for ocean freight varies depending on the supply and demand for ocean vessels, global economic conditions, inflationary pressure, and other factors. We enter into time charter agreements for time on ocean freight vessels based on forecasted requirements for the purpose of transporting agricultural commodities. Our time charter agreements generally have terms ranging from two months to approximately three years. We use financial derivatives, generally freight forward agreements, to hedge portions of our ocean freight costs. The ocean freight derivatives are included in Other current assets and Other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.
Energy Risk
We purchase various energy commodities such as electricity, natural gas and bunker fuel, which are used to operate our manufacturing facilities and ocean freight vessels. These energy commodities are subject to price risk, including inflationary pressures. We use financial derivatives, including exchange traded and OTC swaps and options for various purposes, to manage our exposure to volatility in energy costs and market prices. These energy derivatives are included in Other current assets and Other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.
Currency Risk
Our global operations require active participation in foreign exchange markets. Our primary foreign currency exposures are the Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Euro, and Chinese yuan/renminbi. To reduce the risk arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations, we enter into derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts, swaps and options. The changes in market value of such contracts have a high correlation to the price changes in the related currency exposures. The potential loss in fair value of such net currency positions resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates as of June 30, 2022 was not material.
When determining our exposure, we exclude intercompany loans that are deemed to be permanently invested. Repayments of permanently invested intercompany loans are neither planned nor anticipated in the foreseeable future and are therefore treated analogous to equity for accounting purposes. As a result, the foreign exchange gains and losses on these borrowings are excluded from the determination of Net income (loss) and recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Included in Other comprehensive income (loss) are foreign exchange losses of $19 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and foreign exchange losses of $74 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 related to permanently invested intercompany loans.
Interest Rate Risk
We have debt in fixed and floating rate instruments. We are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates, including inflationary pressures. We may enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate exposure related to our debt portfolio.
The aggregate fair value of our short and long-term debt, based on market yields at June 30, 2022, was $6,519 million with a carrying value of $6,519 million. There was no significant change in our interest rate risk as of June 30, 2022.
A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the interest yields on our debt at June 30, 2022 would result in a decrease of approximately $21 million in the fair value of our debt. Similarly, a decrease of 100 basis points in the interest yields on our debt at June 30, 2022 would cause an increase of approximately $12 million in the fair value of our debt.

A hypothetical 100 basis point change in LIBOR would result in a change of approximately $65 million in our interest expense on our variable rate debt at June 30, 2022. Some of our variable rate debt is denominated in currencies other than in U.S. dollars and is indexed to non-U.S. dollar-based interest rate indices, such as ESTR and TONAR, and certain benchmark rates in local markets. As such, the hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rate ignores the potential impact of any currency movements. See Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of certain risks related to LIBOR.
Inflation Risk
Inflationary factors generally affect us by increasing our labor and overhead costs, as well as costs associated with certain risks identified above, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial position. We have historically been able to recover the impacts of inflation through sales price increases, however we cannot reasonably estimate our ability to successfully recover any impact of inflation through price increases in the future. Our inability to do so could harm our results of operations and financial position. For details relating to the impact of inflationary pressures in Turkey, see Note 1 - Basis of Presentation, Principles of Consolidation, And Significant Accounting Policies to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Derivative Instruments
Foreign Exchange Derivatives—We use a combination of foreign exchange forward, swap, future and option contracts in certain of our operations to mitigate the risk of exchange rate fluctuations in connection with certain commercial and balance sheet exposures. The foreign exchange forward swap and option contracts may be designated as cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. We may also use net investment hedges to partially offset the translation adjustments arising from the remeasurement of our investment in certain of our foreign subsidiaries.
We assess, both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedge transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the hedged items.
Interest Rate Derivatives—We may enter into interest rate swap agreements for the purpose of managing certain of our interest rate exposures. Interest rate swaps used by us as hedging instruments are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value recorded contemporaneously in earnings. Certain of these agreements may be designated as fair value hedges. In such instances, the carrying amount of the associated hedged debt is also adjusted through earnings for changes in fair value arising from changes in benchmark interest rates. We may also enter into interest rate basis swap agreements that do not qualify as hedges for accounting purposes. The impact of changes in fair value of interest rate swap agreements is primarily presented in Interest expense.
Commodity Derivatives—We primarily use derivative instruments to manage our exposure to movements associated with agricultural commodity prices. We generally use exchange-traded futures and options contracts to minimize the effects of changes in the prices of agricultural commodities held as inventories or subject to forward purchase and sales contracts, but may also enter into OTC commodity transactions, including swaps, which are settled in cash at maturity or termination based on exchange-quoted futures prices. Changes in fair values of exchange-traded futures contracts, representing the unrealized gains and/or losses on these instruments, are settled daily, generally through our 100% owned futures clearing subsidiary. Forward purchase and sales contracts are primarily settled through delivery of agricultural commodities. While we consider these exchange-traded futures and forward purchase and sales contracts to be effective economic hedges, we do not designate or account for the majority of our commodity contracts as hedges. Changes in fair values of these contracts and related RMI are included in Cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of income. The forward contracts require performance of both us and the contract counterparty in future periods. Contracts to purchase agricultural commodities generally relate to current or future crop years for delivery periods quoted by regulated commodity exchanges. Contracts for the sale of agricultural commodities generally do not extend beyond one future crop cycle.
Ocean Freight Derivatives—We use derivative instruments referred to as freight forward agreements, or FFAs, and FFA options to hedge portions of our current and anticipated ocean freight costs. Changes in the fair values of ocean freight derivatives are recorded in Cost of goods sold.
Energy Derivatives—We use derivative instruments for various purposes, including to manage our exposure to volatility in energy costs and our exposure to market prices related to the sale of biofuels. Our operations use substantial amounts of energy, including natural gas, coal, and fuel oil, including bunker fuel. Changes in the fair values of energy derivatives are recorded in Cost of goods sold.
Other Derivatives—We may also enter into other derivatives, including credit default swaps and equity derivatives, to manage our exposure to credit risk and broader macroeconomic risks, respectively. The impact of changes in fair value of these instruments is presented in Cost of goods sold.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures - Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of June 30, 2022, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting - There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. However, we continue to migrate certain processes from across our operations to shared business service models in order to consolidate back-office functions while standardizing our processes and financial systems globally. These initiatives are not in response to any identified deficiency or weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to continue these initiatives in phases over the next several years and, accordingly, we have and will continue to align and streamline the design and operation of our internal controls over financial reporting, as necessary, to accommodate modifications to our business processes and accounting procedures. Specifically, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, we began migrating certain of our financial reporting systems in Argentina to our South American Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, a process that is expected to take several months, and which will result in changes to our internal controls over financial reporting relating to our Argentinian operations.
Additionally, management performed an evaluation of the impacts of the Ukraine-Russia War (discussed further in Note 2 – Ukraine-Russia War to our financial statements included as part of this Form 10-Q) on our internal controls over financial reporting. In doing so management noted that, as a result of the war, we are currently unable to perform certain of our Ukrainian internal controls over financial reporting, primarily relating to on-site physical inspections of our operating facilities, due to safety concerns, particularly in areas of active conflict. Additionally, some of our Ukrainian employees have been forced to relocate to other countries or safer locations elsewhere within Ukraine. In response, management has implemented compensating controls, including using third party contractors to carry out visual inspections of the physical condition of our assets held at Ukrainian facilities, as well as certain additional internal controls over financial reporting capable of being performed on a remote basis. To date, our Russian offices and facilities have remained open and operating with no changes to related internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II.
INFORMATION
ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in litigation and other claims, investigations and proceedings incidental to our business. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the outcome of these proceedings, net of established reserves, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
For a discussion of certain legal and tax matters, see Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included as part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Additionally, we are a party to a large number of labor, civil and other claims, primarily relating to our Brazilian operations. We have reserved an aggregate of $69 million and $92 million, for labor and civil claims, respectively, as of June 30, 2022. The labor claims primarily relate to dismissals, severance, health and safety, salary adjustments and supplementary retirement benefits. The civil claims relate to various legal proceedings and disputes, including disputes with suppliers and customers.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Following is a material update to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K:
The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
On February 24, 2022, Russia initiated a military offensive in Ukraine. Ukraine is a key international grain originating region and is also the world’s largest supplier of sun seed and sun oil; commodities which cannot be completely replaced from other origins. The scope, intensity, duration and outcome of the ongoing war is uncertain and its continuation or escalation may have a material adverse effect on Bunge. We maintain operations in Russia and Ukraine. At June 30, 2022, we had total assets and total liabilities of $350 million and $240 million, respectively, in Ukraine, and we had total assets and total liabilities of $157 million and $20 million, respectively, in Russia. Risks associated with the Ukraine-Russia war (the "war") are overseen at the Board of Directors level by the Enterprise Risk Management Committee ("ERMC"), which has responsibility for supervising the quality and integrity of our risk management practices, and at the executive level as part of our enterprise risk management ("ERM") framework, overseen by our Chief Risk Officer, who reports to our CEO, with input from relevant teams and functions.
As a result of the ongoing war, Bunge temporarily idled its Ukrainian operations, comprising two oilseed crushing facilities in Mykolaiv and Dnipropetrovsk, a grain export terminal in the Mykolaiv commercial seaport, numerous grain elevators, and an office in Kiev. The Company also operates a corn milling facility via a joint venture. Assets and operations located in regions affected by the war could be at an increased risk of property damage, inventory loss, business disruption, and expropriation. On each of March 22, June 22, and July 1, 2022, Bunge’s Mykolaiv port facility sustained physical damage as a result of the war. Based on initial visual inspections, the damage does not appear to be material, but thorough onsite, physical inspections of the damage to the Mykolaiv facility resulting from the two most recent incidents have not been possible due to safety concerns.
Our Ukrainian operations employ over 1,000 employees. While as of the date of this report, to our knowledge, there have been no reported casualties or injuries to Bunge employees, some of our Ukrainian employees have been forced to relocate to other countries or elsewhere within Ukraine. The ongoing war could cause harm to our employees and otherwise impair their ability to work for extended periods of time, as well as disrupt telecommunications systems, banks, and other critical infrastructure necessary to conduct business in Ukraine. As the scope and intensity of the war changes rapidly, we are continuing to receive reports on our employees, operations, and facilities and are monitoring the evolving situation.
Additionally, in response to the war, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization ("NATO") member states, as well as non-member states, have announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens, and enterprises. Any continuation or escalation of the war may trigger a series of additional economic and other sanctions. While we have scaled back our Russian grain trading activities in recent years, including the sale of our Rostov grain export terminal in 2021, we continue to operate our oilseed crushing plant in Voronezh, in southwest Russia, doing so in compliance with all legal requirements imposed following the start of the war. From a humanitarian standpoint, this plant is important to the local food

supply as it provides essential food-related products to the Russian population. Therefore, any such sanctions may also result in an adverse effect on our remaining Russian operations.
Certain companies have experienced negative reactions from their investors, employees, customers, or other stakeholders as a result of their action or inaction related to the war between Russia and Ukraine. We continue to monitor the reactions of our investors, employees, customers, and other stakeholders and, as of the date of this report, have neither experienced any material adverse financial impacts nor suffered from the loss of key customers or employees as a result of our continued operations in Russia.
The risk of cybersecurity incidents has increased in connection with the ongoing war, driven by justifications such as retaliation for the sanctions imposed in conjunction with the war, or in response to certain companies' continued operations in Russia. For example, the war has been accompanied by cyberattacks against the Ukrainian government and other countries in the region. It is possible that these attacks could have collateral effects on additional critical infrastructure and financial institutions globally, which could adversely affect our operations and could increase the frequency and severity of cyber-based attacks against our information technology systems. While we have taken actions to mitigate such potential risks, the proliferation of malware from the war into systems unrelated to the war, or cyberattacks against U.S. companies in retaliation for U.S. sanctions against Russia or U.S. support of Ukraine, could also adversely affect our operations.
In accordance with industry standards, we insure ourselves against many types of risks. While this insurance may mitigate certain of the risks associated with the ongoing war, our level of insurance may not cover all losses we could incur. The potential effects of these conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
To the extent the current war adversely affects our business, it may also have the effect of heightening many other risks disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. However, due to the continually evolving nature of the war, the potential impact that the war could have on such risk factors, and others that cannot yet be identified, remains uncertain.
Even if the war moderates, or a resolution between Ukraine and Russia is reached, we expect that we will continue to experience ongoing financial and operational impacts resulting from the war for the foreseeable future as Ukraine rebuilds its economy and infrastructure. Additionally, certain of the economic and other sanctions imposed, or that may be imposed, against Russia may continue for a period of time after any resolution has been reached.
