| FINANCING RECEIVABLES |
(8) Financing Receivables We monitor the credit quality of financing receivables based on delinquency status, defined as follows: | ● | Past due balances represent any payments 30 days or more past the due date. |
| ● | Non-performing financing receivables represent receivables for which we have stopped accruing finance income. This generally occurs when receivables are 90 days delinquent. |
| ● | Write-offs generally occur when receivables are 120 days delinquent. In these situations, the estimated uncollectible amount is written off to the allowance for credit losses. Any expected recovery is presented as non-performing. |

The allowance for credit losses increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2024, primarily due to higher expected losses on the agricultural receivable portfolio as a result of elevated delinquencies and a decline in market conditions. In the first quarter of 2023, we determined that the financial services business in Russia met the held for sale criteria. The financing receivables in Russia were reclassified to “Other assets.” The associated allowance for credit losses was reversed and a valuation allowance for the assets held for sale was recorded. These operations were sold in the second quarter of 2023 (see Note 20). Excluding the portfolio in Russia, the allowance for credit losses increased in the second quarter and the first six months of 2023 primarily due to higher portfolio balances and higher expected losses on turf and construction financing receivables. Write-offs by year of origination were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Six Months Ended April 28, 2024 | | | | 2024 | | 2023 | | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2020 | | Prior Years | | Revolving Charge Accounts | | Total | | Retail customer receivables: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Agriculture and turf | | $ | 1 | | $ | 9 | | $ | 10 | | $ | 5 | | $ | 6 | | $ | 2 | | $ | 30 | | $ | 63 | | Construction and forestry | | | | | | 12 | | | 13 | | | 5 | | | 3 | | | 2 | | | 4 | | | 39 | | Total retail customer receivables | | $ | 1 | | $ | 21 | | $ | 23 | | $ | 10 | | $ | 9 | | $ | 4 | | $ | 34 | | $ | 102 | |
Modifications We occasionally grant contractual modifications to customers experiencing financial difficulties. Before offering a modification, we evaluate the ability of the customer to meet the modified payment terms. Modifications offered include payment deferrals, term extensions, or a combination thereof. Finance charges continue to accrue during the deferral or extension period. Our allowance for credit losses incorporates historical loss information, including the effects of loan modifications with customers. Therefore, additional adjustments to the allowance are generally not recorded upon modification of a loan. The ending amortized cost of modified loans with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the second quarter and the six months ended April 28, 2024 were $36 and $53, respectively, of which $48 were current, $3 were 30-59 days past due, and $2 were non-performing. These modifications represented 0.07 and 0.10 percent of our financing receivable portfolio for the same periods, respectively. Defaults and subsequent write-offs of loans modified in the prior twelve months were not significant during the second quarter and the first six months of 2024. In addition, at April 28, 2024, commitments to provide additional financing to these customers were not significant.
