Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)

1. Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Standards

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the “Company,” “Ingredion,” “we,” “us,” and “our” shall mean Ingredion Incorporated and its consolidated subsidiaries. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes to those statements contained in Ingredion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparing these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were applied on the same basis consistent with those reflected in Ingredion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024 and for the third quarter and year-to-date September 30, 2024 and 2023 included herein were prepared by us on the same basis as our audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring items unless otherwise noted) that are, in our opinion, necessary for the fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Equity and Redeemable Equity, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other future period.

Effective January 1, 2024, there are three reportable segments consisting of Texture & Healthful Solutions (“T&HS”), Food & Industrial Ingredients - Latin America (“F&II - LATAM”) and Food & Industrial Ingredients - U.S./Canada (“F&II - U.S./Canada”).

New Accounting Standards

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. This ASU requires filers to disclose information about supplier finance programs that is sufficient to allow financial statement users to understand their nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We adopted this ASU at the beginning of our 2023 fiscal year and adopted the amendment on rollforward information at the beginning of our 2024 fiscal year. The disclosures required by this ASU are reflected in Note 12.

In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-05, Business Combinations - Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60). This ASU requires that a joint venture apply a new basis of accounting upon formation. By applying a new basis of accounting, a joint venture, upon formation, will recognize and initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value (with exceptions to fair value measurement that are consistent with the business combinations guidance). This ASU is effective prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. A joint venture that was formed before January 1, 2025 may elect to apply the amendments retrospectively. We will adopt this ASU on a prospective basis at the beginning of our 2025 fiscal year and do not believe it will have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). This ASU improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Entities must apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires public business entities on an annual basis to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Additionally, this ASU requires information pertaining to taxes paid (net of refunds received) to be disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes with further disaggregation for specific jurisdictions to the extent the related amounts exceed a quantitative

threshold. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently waiting for additional guidance to be issued on the quantitative thresholds before we can assess the impact of this ASU on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Acquisitions and Divestitures

PureCircle Non-Controlling Interests Acquisition

During year-to-date 2024, we purchased shares from minority shareholders in PureCircle Limited (“PureCircle”) for $40 million, which increased our ownership percentage from 88 percent as of December 31, 2023 to 98 percent as of September 30, 2024.

During the third quarter of 2023, we purchased shares from minority shareholders in PureCircle for $2 million. These purchases increased our ownership percentage from 87 percent as of December 31, 2022 to 88 percent as of September 30, 2023.

South Korea Divestiture

On February 1, 2024, we completed the sale of our South Korea business, which we reported in All Other for segment purposes, for a total consideration of 384.0 billion South Korean won, or approximately $294 million. We received 330.0 billion South Korea won, or $247 million net of certain transaction costs, when the transaction closed, and we will receive the remaining consideration in equal annual payments through February 2027. As a result, we recognized a pre-tax net gain of $90 million consisting of $82 million during the first quarter of 2024 and an $8 million working capital true-up during the three months ended September 30, 2024 within Net gain on sale of business in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

3. Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the fair value assigned to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The original carrying value of goodwill by reportable segment and All Other as of September 30, 2024 is presented below. There were no accumulated impairment charges by reportable segment.


	T&HS		F&II - LATAM		F&II - U.S./Canada		All Other		Total


Balance as of January 1, 2024	$	388	$	146	$	296	$	88	$	918

Cumulative translation adjustment	5		(2)		—		4		7
Balance as of September 30, 2024	$	393	$	144	$	296	$	92	$	925

Ingredion assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise). Based on the results of our assessment as of July 1, 2024, there were no impairments in our goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets. Our indefinite-lived intangible assets balance was $143 million as of each of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

4. Investments

Investments as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows:


	September 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Equity investments	$	34	$	27
Equity method investments	94		112
Marketable securities	5		4
Total investments	$	133	$	143

Our investments classified as equity investments do not have readily determinable fair values. Beginning on the dates we entered into the agreements for equity method investments, our share of income or loss from these investments is included within Other operating expense (income), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded $18 million in Restructuring/impairment charges in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, which represented an other-than-temporary impairment on our equity method investments.

Argentina Joint Venture

On February 12, 2021, we entered into an agreement with an affiliate of Grupo Arcor, an Argentine food company, to establish Ingrear Holding S.A. (the “Argentina joint venture”), a joint venture to sell value-added ingredients to customers in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. Ingredion and Grupo Arcor completed all closing conditions to combine the manufacturing facilities, finalize the transaction and formally establish the Argentina joint venture, which is managed by a jointly appointed team of executives. During the quarter, we received antitrust clearance, subject to fulfillment of certain conditions to promote arms-length competition in the Argentina corn wet milling market, which must be completed by September 2029. The Argentina joint venture is accounted for on the equity method of accounting, and we recognize our share of income or expense in Other operating expense one month in arrears due to the timing of when results are available. On December 13, 2023, the new Argentine government allowed the Argentine peso to devalue from the exchange rate of approximately 366 pesos to one U.S. dollar, to 800 pesos to one U.S. dollar. As we recognize our share of earnings one month in arrears, the loss from the change in value of the peso in December 2023 was recorded in Other operating expense (income), net during the first quarter of 2024.

5. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Commodity price hedging: We had outstanding futures and option contracts that hedged the forecasted purchase of approximately 59 million and 109 million bushels of corn as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. We also had outstanding swap contracts that hedged the forecasted purchase of approximately 28 million mmbtus of natural gas as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Foreign currency hedging: We hedge certain assets using foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, which had a notional value of $489 million and $694 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. We also hedge certain liabilities using foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, which had a notional value of $147 million and $182 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

We hedge certain assets using foreign currency cash flow hedging instruments, which had a notional value of $394 million and $449 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. We also hedge certain liability positions using foreign currency cash flow hedging instruments, which had a notional value of $483 million and $621 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Interest rate hedging: We periodically enter into T-Locks to hedge our exposure to interest rate changes. We have settled T-Locks associated with the issuance of our senior notes due in 2030 and 2050. The realized loss upon settlement of these T-Locks was recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) and is amortized into earnings over the term of the senior notes. We did not have outstanding T-Locks as of either September 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

6. Fair Value Measurements

We measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, we use various valuation approaches. The hierarchy of those valuation approaches is in three levels based on the reliability of inputs. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Below is a summary of the hierarchy levels:

•Level 1 inputs consist of quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 2 inputs are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are presented below:


	As of September 30, 2024								As of December 31, 2023
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Marketable securities	$	5	$	5	$	—	$	—	$	4	$	4	$	—	$	—
Derivative assets	30		29		1		—		26		26		—		—
Derivative liabilities	42		31		11		—		76		43		33		—
Long-term debt	1,657		—		1,657		—		1,591		—		1,591		—

The carrying values of cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings and accounts payable approximate fair values. Commodity futures, options and swap contracts are recognized at fair value. Foreign currency forward contracts, swaps and options are also recognized at fair value. The fair value of our Long-term debt is estimated based on quotations of major securities dealers who are market makers in the securities.

We maintain a commercial paper program under which we may issue senior unsecured notes of short-term maturities up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion outstanding at any time. The notes may be sold from time to time on customary terms in the U.S. commercial paper market. We use the note proceeds for general corporate purposes. During year-to-date 2024, the average amount of commercial paper outstanding was $41 million with an average interest rate of 5.51 percent and a weighted average maturity of eight days. During year-to-date 2023, the average amount of commercial paper outstanding was $438 million with an average interest rate of 5.25 percent and a weighted average maturity of eleven days. As of September 30, 2024, we had no commercial paper outstanding. As of December 31, 2023, $327 million of commercial paper was outstanding with an average interest rate of 5.50 percent and a weighted average maturity of eleven days. The amount of commercial paper outstanding under this program for the remainder of 2024 may fluctuate.

Other short-term borrowings as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 primarily include amounts outstanding under various unsecured local country operating lines of credit.

9. Equity

Treasury Stock: On September 26, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing us to purchase up to 6.0 million shares of our outstanding common stock until December 31, 2025. We may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, at prices we deem appropriate. We are not obligated to repurchase any shares under the authorization, and the repurchase program may be suspended, discontinued, or modified at any time, for any reason and without notice. The parameters of our stock repurchase program are not established solely with reference to the dilutive impact of shares issued under our stock incentive plan. However, we expect that, over time, share repurchases will offset the dilutive impact of shares issued under the stock incentive plan.

Total share-based compensation expense, net of income taxes	$	7	$	8	$	28	$	21

Stock Options: Under our stock incentive plan, stock options are granted at exercise prices that equal the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The options have a ten-year term and are exercisable upon vesting, which occurs over a three-year period at the anniversary dates of the date of grant. We generally recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis for all awards over the employee’s vesting period. We estimate a forfeiture rate at the time of grant and update the estimate throughout the vesting period of the stock options within the amount of compensation costs recognized in each period.

We granted non-qualified options to purchase 178 thousand shares and 197 thousand shares for year-to-date 2024 and 2023. We estimated the fair value of each option grant by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024	2023
Expected life (in years)	5.5	5.5
Risk-free interest rate	4.2%	4.0%
Expected volatility	28.1%	28.3%
Expected dividend yield	2.9%	2.9%

The expected life of options represents the weighted average period that we expect options granted to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and our historical exercise patterns. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the grant date for the period corresponding to the expected life of the options. Expected volatility is based on historical volatilities of our common stock, and dividend yields are based on our dividend yield at the date of issuance.

Stock option activity for year-to-date 2024 is as follows:


	Number of Options (in thousands)	Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share		Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding as of December 31, 2023	1,953	$	96.61	5.0	$	29
Granted	178	108.38
Exercised	(390)	85.17

Outstanding as of September 30, 2024	1,697	$	100.35	5.3	$	63
Exercisable as of September 30, 2024	1,347	$	100.13	4.5	$	50

For year-to-date 2024, cash received from the exercise of stock options was approximately $33 million. As of September 30, 2024, the unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options totaled $2 million, which we expect to amortize over the weighted-average period of approximately 1.7 years.

Additional information pertaining to stock option activity is as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Weighted average grant date fair value of stock options granted (per share)	$	—	$	—	$	26.33	$	23.80
Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised	3		1		13		11

Restricted Stock Units: We have granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain key employees. The RSUs are primarily subject to cliff vesting, generally after three years, provided the employee remains in our service. The fair value of the RSUs is determined based upon the number of shares granted and the quoted market price of our common stock at the grant date.

The following table summarizes RSU activity year-to-date in 2024:


	Number of Restricted Shares (in thousands)	Weighted Average Fair Value per Share
Non-vested as of December 31, 2023	552	$	92.05
Granted	210	108.81
Vested	(174)	87.46
Cancelled	(45)	95.74
Non-vested as of September 30, 2024	543	$	99.43

As of September 30, 2024, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs was $23 million, which will be amortized on a weighted-average basis over approximately 1.8 years.

Performance Shares: We have a long-term incentive plan for senior management in the form of performance shares. The vesting of the performance shares is generally based on two performance metrics. Fifty percent of the performance shares awarded vest based on our total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of our peer group, and the remaining fifty percent vest based on the calculation of our three-year average Adjusted Return on Invested Capital (“Adjusted ROIC”) against an established ROIC target.

(dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise noted)

For the 2024 performance shares awarded based on our total shareholder return, the number of shares that ultimately vest can range from zero to 200 percent of the grant depending on our total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of our peer group. The share award vesting will be calculated at the end of the three-year period and is subject to approval by management and the People, Culture, and Compensation Committee (“Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors. Compensation expense is based on the fair value of the performance shares at the grant date, established using a Monte Carlo simulation model. We amortize the total compensation expense for these awards over a three-year graded vesting schedule.

For the 2024 performance shares awarded based on Adjusted ROIC, the number of shares that ultimately vest can range from zero to 200 percent of the grant depending on our Adjusted ROIC performance against the target. The share award vesting will be calculated at the end of the three-year period and is subject to approval by management and the Compensation Committee. We base compensation expense on the market price of our common stock on the grant date and the final number of shares that ultimately vest. We estimate the potential share vesting at least annually to adjust the compensation expense for these awards over the vesting period to reflect our estimated Adjusted ROIC performance against the target. We amortize the total compensation expense for these awards over a three-year graded vesting schedule.

For year-to-date 2024, we awarded 86 thousand performance shares at a weighted average fair value of $127.97 per share. As of September 30, 2024, the unrecognized compensation cost related to these awards was $11 million, which we will amortize over the remaining service period of 2.0 years. The 2021 performance share awards that vested in February 2024 achieved a 200 percent payout of the granted performance shares. As of September 30, 2024, we estimated the 2022 performance share awards will pay out at 200 percent. For year-to-date 2024, 17 thousand shares were cancelled.

For the third quarter and year-to-date 2024, approximately 0.2 million and 0.5 million share-based awards of common stock were excluded from the calculation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding for diluted EPS because their effects were anti-dilutive. For the third quarter and year-to-date 2023, approximately 0.5 million share-based awards of common stock were excluded from the calculation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding for diluted EPS because their effects were anti-dilutive.

10. Segment Information

We are principally engaged in the production and sale of starches and sweeteners for a wide range of industries. Our T&HS segment has a global focus and primarily manufactures texturizing food ingredients. Our F&II - LATAM segment has a local focus and primarily manufactures food, ingredient, and industrial products, which we process from raw materials that we primarily source within South America and Mexico. Our F&II - U.S./Canada segment has a local focus and primarily manufactures food, ingredient, and industrial products, which we process from raw materials sourced within the U.S. and Canada. All Other consists of the businesses of multiple operating segments that are not individually or collectively classified as reportable segments. Revenues from All Other are generated primarily by sweetener and starch sales by our Pakistan business, sales of stevia and other ingredients from our PureCircle and Sugar Reduction businesses, and pea protein ingredients from our Protein Fortification business. We divested our South Korea business on February 1, 2024 and its results are included in our consolidated financial results through the date of sale, which affects the comparability of results between years within All Other. Net sales by product are not presented because such presentation is not practicable.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Net

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we announced the intent to close certain manufacturing operations in the United Kingdom in 2025. We recognized an impairment charge of $8 million in connection with the property, plant and equipment at that manufacturing plant.

Supply Chain Finance Programs

Under supply chain finance programs administered by third-party banks, our suppliers have the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financing institutions and receive earlier payment at a discount. Our responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether such supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. The payment terms we negotiate with a supplier are independent of whether such supplier participates in a supply chain finance program, and participation in any such program by a supplier has no effect on our income or cash flows.

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, participating financial institutions held $121 million and $153 million of our liabilities recorded in Accounts payable and Accrued liabilities and liabilities held for sale on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2024, supply chain finance programs existed for operations in Brazil, Mexico, certain PureCircle entities, Colombia, Peru, Thailand and China.

The rollforward of our outstanding obligations confirmed as valid under our supply chain finance programs as of September 30, 2024 was as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, as used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the terms “the Company,” “Ingredion,” “we,” “us,” and “our” and similar terms refer to Ingredion Incorporated and its consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contained or implied in any forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion.

Overview

We are a leading global ingredients solutions provider that transforms grains, fruits, vegetables and other plant-based materials into value-added ingredient solutions for the food, beverage, animal nutrition, brewing and industrial markets. Our innovative ingredient solutions help customers stay on trend with simple ingredients and other in-demand ingredients.

During the third quarter of 2024, operating income, net income and diluted earnings per share increased when compared to the same quarter last year while net sales decreased. Net sales decreased primarily due to price mix from lower pass-through of raw material costs to customers as well as volumes associated with the sale of our South Korea business in 2024. Operating income increased during the third quarter primarily due to lower raw material and input costs. Net income and diluted earnings per share increased primarily due to lower financing costs and lower raw material and input costs, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023.

Results of Operations

The following discusses our results for our three reportable segments consisting of Texture & Healthful Solutions (“T&HS”), Food & Industrial Ingredients (“F&II”) - Latin America (“LATAM”), and F&II - U.S./Canada. In addition, we discuss the results of All Other. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates affect the U.S. dollar amounts of our foreign subsidiaries’ net sales and expenses. For most of our foreign subsidiaries, the local foreign currency is the functional currency. Accordingly, net sales and expenses denominated in the functional currencies of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable average exchange rates for the period.

Third Quarter of 2024

With Comparatives to Third Quarter of 2023

Net sales. Net sales decreased 8 percent to $1,870 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $2,033 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was due primarily due to price mix primarily from lower raw material costs and lost sales volume from the sale of our South Korea business, partially offset by volume increases.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales decreased 14 percent to $1,391 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to cost of sales of $1,612 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was due primarily to lower raw material and input costs which decreased at a faster rate than sales leading to gross profit margin increasing to 26 percent for the third quarter of 2024 compared to 21 percent for the third quarter of 2023.

Operating expenses. Operating expenses decreased 3 percent to $198 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $203 million for the third quarter of 2023. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 11 percent for the third quarter of 2024 and 10 percent for the third quarter of 2023.

Other operating expense (income). Other operating expense was $1 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to other operating (income) of $(5) million for the third quarter of 2023. The change was primarily due to insurance recoveries in the third quarter of 2023, whereas there were no such recoveries in the third quarter of 2024.

Restructuring and impairment charges. Restructuring and impairment charges were $12 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $10 million for the third quarter of 2023. During the third quarter of 2024, we recorded an impairment charge related to property, plant and equipment associated with manufacturing operations in the United Kingdom, where

we plan to stop production in the first quarter of next year. During the third quarter of 2023, we recorded an impairment charge on an equity method investment.

Financing costs. Financing costs decreased 96 percent to $1 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $26 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower average outstanding debt balances for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023, as well as favorable foreign exchange impacts.

Net gain on sale of business. Net gain on sale of business was $8 million for the third quarter of 2024 to reflect the working capital true-up associated with the sale of our South Korea business, which was completed on February 1, 2024. There was no such gain recorded in the third quarter of 2023.

Provision for income taxes. Our effective income tax rate was 30.8 percent for the third quarter of 2024 and 13.5 percent for the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to an adverse ruling that generated a multi-year tax contingency in the third quarter of 2024, as well as lapping a prior year retroactive law change to claim certain foreign tax credits against U.S. taxes, and the change in the value of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar. These impacts were partially offset by the tax treatment on the sale of our South Korea business during 2024.

Net income attributable to Ingredion. Net income attributable to Ingredion for the third quarter of 2024 increased to $188 million from $158 million for the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower input costs and reduced financing costs, partially offset by a less favorable effective tax rate.

Segment Results

Texture & Healthful Solutions

Net sales. T&HS net sales remained flat at $600 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $599 million for the third quarter of 2023. An increase in volume of 11 percent were offset by unfavorable price mix of 11 percent.

Operating income. T&HS operating income increased 12 percent to $96 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $86 million for the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower input costs and recovering volumes, partially offset by unfavorable price mix.

Food & Industrial Ingredients - LATAM

Net sales. F&II - LATAM net sales decreased 6 percent to $620 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $658 million for the third quarter of 2023.

Operating income. F&II - LATAM operating income increased 26 percent to $131 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $104 million for the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower input costs and catch-up pricing on multi-year contracts.

Food & Industrial Ingredients - U.S./Canada

Net sales. F&II - U.S./Canada net sales decreased 9 percent to $548 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $599 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to unfavorable price mix of 9 percent.

Operating income. F&II - U.S./Canada operating income increased 25 percent to $99 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $79 million for the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower raw material and input costs, partially offset by price mix.

All Other

Net sales. All Other net sales decreased 42 percent to $102 million for the third quarter of 2024 from $177 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease is due to the sale of our South Korea business during 2024. Excluding the sale of our South Korea business, net sales increased 8 percent.

Operating (loss). All Other operating (loss) was $(4) million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $(1) million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of our South Korea business.

Year-to-Date 2024

With Comparatives to Year-to-Date 2023

Net sales. Net sales decreased 10 percent to $5,630 million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $6,239 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to price mix from lower raw material costs and lost sales volume from the sale of our South Korea business, partially offset by increased volumes in the rest of the business.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales decreased 12 percent to $4,288 million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $4,890 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower raw material and input costs which decreased at a faster rate than sales leading to an increase in gross profit margin to 24 percent for year-to-date 2024 compared to 22 percent for year-to-date 2023.

Operating expenses. Operating expenses were flat at $578 million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $578 million for year-to-date 2023. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 10 percent for year-to-date 2024 and 9 percent for year-to-date 2023.

Other operating expense. Other operating expense was $5 million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $6 million for year-to-date 2023.

Restructuring and impairment charges. Restructuring and impairment charges were $38 million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $10 million for year-to-date 2023. The increase was due primarily to an $18 million impairment charge on an equity method investment, a $8 million impairment charge related to property, plant and equipment associated with manufacturing operations in the United Kingdom and $8 million related to our Cost2Compete program that began on January 1, 2024.

Financing costs. Financing costs decreased 66 percent to $30 million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $88 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower average outstanding debt balances during the year-to-date 2024 compared to year-to-date 2023, as well as foreign exchange impacts.

Net gain on sale of business. Net gain on sale of business was $90 million for year-to-date 2024 to reflect the sale of our South Korea business, which was completed on February 1, 2024. There was no such gain recorded year-to-date 2023.

Provision for income taxes. Our effective income tax rate for year-to-date 2024 increased to 28.5 percent from 21.9 percent for year-to-date 2023. The increase was primarily due to the change in value of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and an adverse ruling that generated a multi-year tax contingency in the third quarter of 2024. These impacts were partially offset by the tax treatment on the sale of our South Korea business during the first quarter of 2024.

Net income attributable to Ingredion. Net income attributable to Ingredion for year-to-date 2024 increased to $552 million from $512 million for year-to-date 2023.

Segment Results

T&HS

Net sales. T&HS net sales decreased 5 percent to $1,785 million for year-to-date 2024 from $1,882 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable price mix of 11 percent, partially offset by increased volumes of 6 percent.

Operating income. T&HS operating income decreased 19 percent to $256 million for year-to-date 2024 from $318 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable price mix and the carry-forward of higher cost inventory, partially offset by improved volumes.

F&II - LATAM

Net sales. F&II - LATAM net sales decreased 6 percent to $1,866 million for year-to-date 2024 from $1,991 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable price mix of 7 percent, partially offset by increased volumes of 1 percent.

Operating income. F&II - LATAM operating income increased 11 percent to $362 million for year-to-date 2024 from $327 million for year-to-date 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower input costs and catch-up pricing on multi-year contracts.

Net sales. F&II - U.S./Canada net sales decreased 9 percent to $1,644 million for year-to-date 2024 from $1,811 million for year-to-date 2023. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable price mix of 8 percent and unfavorable volume of 1 percent.

Operating income. F&II - U.S./Canada operating income increased 16 percent to $291 million for year-to-date 2024 from $251 million for year-to-date 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower raw material and input costs, partially offset by price mix.

All Other

Net sales. All Other net sales decreased 40 percent to $335 million for year-to-date 2024 from $555 million for year-to-date 2023. Excluding the sale of our South Korea business, net sales were up 1 percent.

Operating (loss). All Other operating (loss) increased 200 percent to $(18) million for year-to-date 2024 compared to $(6) million for year-to-date 2023. The increase was primarily due to the sale of our South Korea business in 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2024, we had total available liquidity of $2.5 billion. Domestic liquidity of $1.3 billion consisted of $289 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.0 billion available through our commercial paper program. The commercial paper program is backed by $1.0 billion of borrowing availability under a five-year revolving credit agreement.

As of September 30, 2024, we had international liquidity of $1.2 billion, consisting of $588 million of cash and cash equivalents and $7 million of short-term investments held by our operations outside the U.S., as well as $642 million of unused operating lines of credit in foreign countries where we operate. As the parent company, we guarantee certain obligations of our consolidated subsidiaries. These guarantees totaled $40 million as of September 30, 2024. We believe that those consolidated subsidiaries will be able to meet their financial obligations as they become due.

As of September 30, 2024, we had total debt outstanding of $1.8 billion, or $1.7 billion excluding other short-term borrowings. Of our outstanding debt, $1.7 billion consists of senior notes that do not require principal repayment until 2026 through 2050. The weighted average interest rate on our total indebtedness was approximately 4.0 percent for year-to-date 2024 and approximately 4.4 percent for year-to-date 2023.

The principal source of our liquidity is our internally generated cash flow, which we supplement as necessary with our ability to borrow under our credit facilities and commercial paper program and to raise funds in the capital markets. We currently expect that our available cash balances, future cash flow from operations, access to debt markets and borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility and commercial paper program will provide us with sufficient liquidity to fund our anticipated capital expenditures, dividends and other operating, investing and financing activities for at least the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. Our future cash flow needs will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, cost of raw materials, changing working capital requirements, the timing and extent of our expansion into new markets, the timing of introductions of new products, potential acquisitions of complementary businesses and technologies, continuing market acceptance of our new products and general economic and market conditions. We may need to raise additional capital or incur indebtedness to fund our needs for less predictable strategic initiatives, such as acquisitions.

Net Cash Flows

Our cash provided by operating activities was $1.0 billion for year-to-date 2024 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $647 million for year-to-date 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $371 million change in working capital due to decreases in inventory and trade accounts receivable, and increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

We used $170 million of cash for capital expenditures and mechanical stores purchases to update, expand and improve our facilities during year-to-date 2024 compared to $233 million that we paid during year-to-date 2023 for the same purposes. Capital investment commitments for the remainder of 2024 are anticipated to be between $310 million and $330 million.

We used $601 million of cash for financing activities during year-to-date 2024 compared to cash used for financing activities of $301 million for year-to-date 2023. The difference was primarily due to a net $327 million reduction of our commercial paper borrowings during year-to-date 2024 from $57 million net borrowings of commercial paper during year-to-date 2023.

We declare and pay cash dividends to our common stockholders of record on a quarterly basis. Dividends paid, including those to non-controlling interests, was $156 million during year-to-date 2024 compared to $143 million during year-to-date 2023. The increase in dividend payments was due to an increase in our quarterly dividend to $0.78 per share during year-to-date 2024 from $0.71 per share during year-to-date 2023.

During the third quarter and year-to-date 2024, we repurchased 185 thousand and 762 thousand outstanding shares of common stock in open market transactions at a net cost of $21 million and $87 million. During the third quarter and year-to-date 2023, we repurchased 1.0 million outstanding shares of common stock at a net cost of $101 million. During year-to-date 2024, we purchased shares in our subsidiary PureCircle from minority shareholders for $40 million, which increased our ownership to 98 percent as of September 30, 2024.

We have not provided foreign withholding taxes, state income taxes and federal and state taxes on foreign currency gains/losses on accumulated undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries because these earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested. It is not practicable to determine the amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability related to the undistributed earnings. We do not anticipate the need to repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs associated with our domestic debt service requirements.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of the date of this report, there have been no material developments in the environmental proceedings related to our Bedford Park, Illinois manufacturing facility discussed in Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

In addition to the foregoing matter, we are currently subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business, including those relating to labor matters, certain environmental proceedings, and commercial claims. We also routinely receive inquiries from regulators and other government authorities relating to various aspects of our business, including with respect to compliance with laws and regulations relating to the environment, and at any given time, we have matters at various stages of resolution with the applicable governmental authorities. The outcomes of these matters are not within our complete control and may not be known for prolonged periods of time. We do not believe that the results of currently known legal proceedings and inquires will be material to us. There can be no assurance, however, that such claims, suits, or investigations or those arising in the future, whether taken individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
