Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Seaboard Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Seaboard”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Seaboard for the year ended December 31, 2021 as filed in its annual report on Form 10-K. Seaboard’s first three quarterly periods include approximately 13 weekly periods ending on the Saturday closest to the end of March, June and September. Seaboard’s year-end is December 31. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Seaboard has consistently applied all accounting policies as disclosed in its latest annual report on Form 10-K to all periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information
Non-cash investing activities for the three months ended April 2, 2022, included purchases of property, plant and equipment in accounts payable of $5 million. The following table includes supplemental cash and non-cash information related to leases. Seaboard reports the amortization of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and changes in operating lease liabilities in other liabilities, exclusive of debt in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities:

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The change in the carrying amount of goodwill was related to foreign currency exchange differences of $2 million within the Commodity Trading and Milling (“CT&M”) segment. As of April 2, 2022, intangible assets, included in other non-current assets, were $42 million, net of accumulated amortization of $34 million.
Income Taxes
Seaboard computes its year-to-date income tax provision by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date pre-tax income or loss and adjusts the provision for discrete tax items recorded in the period.

Seaboard had $37 million and $46 million of short-term investments denominated in foreign currencies, primarily euros, as of April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
As of April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Seaboard had long-term investments of $160 million and $156 million, respectively, primarily in a business development company (“BDC”), real estate and renewable energy facilities. The BDC investment is included in the fair value hierarchy table in Note 6 and the other investments are primarily accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Long-term investments are classified in other non-current assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Legal Proceedings
On July 21, 2021, a lawsuit was filed by an individual, Odette Blanco de Fernandez, who alleges that she owns a claim to confiscated property, related persons who purportedly inherited claims to confiscated property (“Inheritors”) and estates of deceased persons who purportedly own claims to confiscated property (“Estates”) against Seaboard Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware under Title III of the Cuban Liberty and Solidarity Act of 1996, also known as the Helms-Burton Act (the “Act”). The same plaintiffs filed a separate lawsuit against Seaboard Marine Ltd. (“Seaboard Marine”) on December 20, 2020, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The Act provides that any person who knowingly and intentionally “traffics” in property which was confiscated by the Cuban government may be liable to any U.S. national who acquires an ownership interest to such property for money damages in an amount equal to the greater of the current fair market value of the property or the value of the property when confiscated, plus interest from the date of confiscation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, and treble damages under certain circumstances. The complaint in each of the cases alleges that the plaintiffs acquired ownership interests to a 70-year concession to develop port facilities at Mariel Bay, Cuba, and to ownership of surrounding land, and that these and other property rights were confiscated by the Cuban government in 1960. The complaints further allege that Seaboard Corporation and Seaboard Marine knowingly and intentionally “trafficked” within the meaning of the Act in the confiscated property by carrying and/or directing cargo to the Port of Mariel. The Court in the Seaboard Marine case dismissed the claims of the Inheritors and the Estates because they did not acquire the ownership claims prior to March 1996, as required by the Act. The Court denied the plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of the Estates. On April 8, 2022, Seaboard Marine filed a Motion for Summary Judgement and a Motion to Exclude Opinions of Plaintiff’s Experts, including Plaintiff’s two experts’ opinions on damages. The case is set on the Court’s trial calendar for August 1, 2022. As to the suit against Seaboard Corporation, on October 21, 2021, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint which principally adds allegations that there were additional callings made by Seaboard Marine at the Port of Mariel and that Seaboard Corporation engaged in a pattern of doing business with individuals and entities in contravention of the foreign policy of the U.S. Seaboard Corporation has filed a Motion to Dismiss, which has been briefed and is pending. The operative complaints in each lawsuit seek unspecified damages (including treble damages) and pre-filing interest as provided in the Act; pre-judgment interest; attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses; and such other relief as is just and proper. Seaboard Corporation and Seaboard Marine believe they have meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in these matters and intend to vigorously defend these matters. It is impossible at this stage either to determine the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome resulting from either of these suits, or to reasonably estimate the amount of potential loss or range of potential loss, if any, resulting from the suits.
On June 28, 2018, twelve indirect purchasers of pork products filed a class action complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota (the “District Court”) against several pork processors, including Seaboard Foods LLC and Agri Stats, Inc., a company described in the complaint as a data sharing service. The complaint also named Seaboard Corporation as a defendant. Additional class action complaints making similar claims on behalf of putative classes of direct and indirect purchasers were later filed in the District Court, and three additional actions by standalone plaintiffs (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico) were filed in or transferred to the District Court. The consolidated actions are styled In re Pork Antitrust Litigation. The operative complaints allege, among other things, that beginning in January 2009, the defendants conspired and combined to fix, raise, maintain, and stabilize the price of pork products in
violation of U.S. antitrust laws by coordinating their output and limiting production, allegedly facilitated by the exchange of non-public information about prices, capacity, sales volume and demand through Agri Stats, Inc. The complaints on behalf of the putative classes of indirect purchasers also assert claims under various state laws, including state antitrust laws, unfair competition laws, consumer protection statutes, and common law unjust enrichment. The relief sought in the respective complaints includes treble damages, injunctive relief, pre- and post-judgment interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. On October 16, 2020, the District Court denied defendants’ motions to dismiss the amended complaints, but the District Court later dismissed all claims against Seaboard Corporation without prejudice.
In 2021 and 2022, additional standalone plaintiffs filed similar actions in other federal courts throughout the country, several of which name Seaboard Corporation as a defendant. These actions have been or are expected to be conditionally transferred to Minnesota for pretrial proceedings pursuant to an order by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. Also in 2021, the states of New Mexico and Alaska filed civil cases in state court against substantially the same defendants, including Seaboard Foods LLC and Seaboard Corporation, based on substantially similar allegations.
Seaboard believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in these matters and intends to vigorously defend these matters. It is impossible at this stage either to determine the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome resulting from these suits, or to reasonably estimate the amount of potential loss or range of potential loss, if any, resulting from the suits.
On March 20, 2018, the bankruptcy trustee (the “Trustee”) for Cereoil Uruguay S.A. (“Cereoil”) filed a suit in the Bankruptcy Court of First Instance in Uruguay that was served during the second quarter of 2018 naming as parties Seaboard Corporation and its subsidiaries, Seaboard Overseas Limited (“SOL”) and Seaboard Uruguay Holdings Ltd. (“Seaboard Uruguay”). Seaboard Corporation has a 45% indirect ownership of Cereoil. The suit seeks an order requiring Seaboard Corporation, SOL and Seaboard Uruguay to reimburse Cereoil the amount of $22 million, contending that deliveries of soybeans to SOL pursuant to purchase agreements should be set aside as fraudulent conveyances. Seaboard believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in this matter and intends to vigorously defend this matter. It is impossible at this stage to determine the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome resulting from this suit. In the event of an adverse ruling, Seaboard and its two subsidiaries could be ordered to pay the amount of $22 million plus interest. Any award in this case would offset against any award in the additional case described below filed by the Trustee on April 27, 2018.
On April 27, 2018, the Trustee for Cereoil filed another suit in the Bankruptcy Court of First Instance in Uruguay that was served during the second quarter of 2018 naming as parties Seaboard Corporation, SOL, Seaboard Uruguay, all directors of Cereoil, including two individuals employed by Seaboard who served as directors at the behest of Seaboard, and the Chief Financial Officer of Cereoil, an employee of Seaboard who also served at the behest of Seaboard (collectively, the “Cereoil Defendants”). The Trustee contends that the Cereoil Defendants acted with willful misconduct to cause Cereoil’s insolvency, and thus should be ordered to pay all liabilities of Cereoil, net of assets. The bankruptcy filing lists total liabilities of $53 million and assets of $30 million. Seaboard believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in this matter and intends to vigorously defend this matter. It is impossible at this stage to determine the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome resulting from this suit. In the event of an adverse ruling, Seaboard Corporation and the other Cereoil Defendants could be ordered to pay the amount of the net indebtedness of Cereoil, which based on the bankruptcy schedules would total $23 million. It is possible that the net indebtedness could be higher than this amount if Cereoil’s liabilities are greater than $53 million and/or Cereoil’s assets are worth less than $30 million.
In addition, in the event of an adverse ruling, the Bankruptcy Court of First Instance could order payment of the Trustee’s professional fees, interest, and other expenses. Any award in this case would offset against any award in the case described above filed on March 20, 2018.
On September 30, 2021, HSBC Bank (Uruguay) SA ("HSBC"), a creditor in the Cereoil bankruptcy proceeding pending in Uruguay, filed a suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas against Seaboard Corporation alleging claims for breach of contract, promissory estoppel, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, unjust enrichment, fraud, negligent misrepresentation and fraud by concealment based upon a comfort letter, alleged statements by Cereoil personnel (including the Chief Financial Officer serving at the behest of Seaboard), and the same grain transactions that the Trustee challenges as fraudulent conveyances in the Cereoil bankruptcy in Uruguay discussed above. HSBC seeks $10 million plus interest and other relief in excess of $3.2 million. Seaboard believes that is has meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in this matter and intends to vigorously defend this matter. It is impossible at this stage to determine the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome resulting from this suit.
On May 15, 2018, the Trustee for Nolston S.A. (“Nolston”) filed a suit in the Bankruptcy Court of First Instance in Uruguay that was served during the second quarter of 2018 naming as parties Seaboard and the other Cereoil Defendants. Seaboard has a 45% indirect ownership of Nolston. The Trustee contends that the Cereoil Defendants acted with willful misconduct to cause Nolston’s insolvency, and thus should be ordered to pay all liabilities of Nolston, net of assets. The bankruptcy filing lists total liabilities of $29 million and assets of $15 million. Seaboard believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in this matter and intends to vigorously defend this matter. It is impossible at this stage to determine the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome resulting from this suit. In the event of an adverse ruling, Seaboard and the other Cereoil Defendants could be ordered to pay the amount of the net indebtedness of Nolston, which based on the bankruptcy schedules, asset sales and removal of duplicative claims, is estimated to be approximately $8 million. In addition, in the event of an adverse ruling, the Bankruptcy Court of First Instance could order payment of the Trustee’s professional fees, interest, and other expenses.
Seaboard is subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings and other legal matters related to the normal conduct of its business. The ultimate resolution of these items is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of Seaboard.
Guarantees
Certain of Seaboard’s non-consolidated affiliates have debt supporting their underlying operations. From time to time, Seaboard will provide guarantees of that debt in order to further Seaboard’s business objectives. As of April 2, 2022, guarantees outstanding were not material. Seaboard has not accrued a liability for any of the guarantees as the likelihood of loss is remote.
Note 5 – Employee Benefits
Seaboard has qualified defined benefit pension plans for its domestic salaried and clerical employees that were hired before January 1, 2014. Seaboard also sponsors non-qualified, unfunded supplemental executive plans.
The net periodic benefit cost for all of these plans were as follows:
Components of net periodic benefit cost:

Net periodic benefit cost
Note 6 – Derivatives and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following tables show assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy used to measure each category of assets and liabilities.

Financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, net receivables, lines of credit and accounts payable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value as a result of the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair value of short-term investments is measured using multiple levels. Domestic and foreign debt securities categorized as level 1 in the fair value hierarchy include debt securities held in mutual funds and ETFs. Domestic debt securities categorized as level 2 include corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, U.S. Treasuries and high-yield securities. Foreign debt securities categorized as level 2 include foreign government or government related securities, corporate bonds, asset-backed securities and high-yield securities with a country of origin concentration outside the U.S.
Seaboard has a long-term investment in a BDC that primarily lends to and invests in debt securities of privately held companies. This long-term investment is valued at net asset value (“NAV”), adjusted for a liquidity discount of $1 million, resulting in level 3 classification. The change in value for the first quarter of 2022 was related to capital market activity and is recorded in other investment income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by comparing interest rates for debt with similar terms and maturities. As Seaboard’s long-term debt is mostly variable-rate, its carrying amount approximates fair value. If Seaboard’s long-term debt was measured at fair value on its condensed consolidated balance sheets, it would have been classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 4 for a discussion of Seaboard’s long-term debt.
Seaboard’s contingent consideration, classified in other non-current liabilities, is related to a 2018 acquisition. The fair value is dependent on the probability of the acquiree achieving certain financial performance targets using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) as a metric. The contingent consideration ranges between zero and $48 million payable between five and eight years following the closing, at the discretion of the sellers. The fair value is classified as a level 3 since the calculation is dependent upon projected company specific inputs using a Monte Carlo simulation. Seaboard remeasures the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability until settled, with adjustments included in net earnings (loss). The change in value during 2022 was related to updated interest rates and foreign currency rates.
Seaboard’s operations are exposed to market risks from changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. Seaboard uses various commodity derivative futures and options to manage its risk of price fluctuations for raw materials and other inventories, finished product sales and firm sales commitments. Also, Seaboard enters into foreign currency exchange agreements to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk with respect to certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies. From time to time, Seaboard enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage the interest rate risk with respect to certain variable rate long-term debt and equity futures contracts to manage the equity price risk with respect to certain short-term investments. While management believes its derivatives are primarily economic hedges, Seaboard does not perform the extensive record-keeping required to account for these types of transactions as hedges for accounting purposes. These derivative contracts are recorded at fair value, with any changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. As the derivative contracts are not accounted for as hedges, fluctuations in the related prices or rates could have a material impact on earnings in any given reporting period. The nature of Seaboard’s market risk exposure has not changed materially since December 31, 2021.
Seaboard had the following aggregated outstanding notional amounts related to derivative financial instruments:

Commodities:

Credit risks associated with these derivative contracts are not significant as Seaboard minimizes counterparty exposure by dealing with credit-worthy counterparties and uses margin accounts for some contracts. At April 2, 2022, the maximum amount of credit risk, had the counterparties failed to perform according to the terms of the contract, was $4 million.
The following table provides the fair value of each type of derivative held and where each derivative is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Seaboard’s commodity derivative assets and liabilities are presented net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, including netting the derivatives with the related margin accounts. As of April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the
12
commodity derivatives had a margin account balance of $72 million and $28 million, respectively, resulting in a net other current asset in the condensed consolidated balance sheets of $39 million and $29 million, respectively.
The following table provides the amount of gain or (loss) recognized in income for each type of derivative and where it was recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income:

Interest rate swaps
During the third quarter of 2021, all of Seaboard’s interest rate swap agreements were terminated. Seaboard paid fixed-rate interest payments at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.26% and received variable-rate interest payments based on the one-month LIBOR from the counterparty without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts of $400 million.

Note 8 – Segment Information
Seaboard has six reportable segments: Pork, CT&M, Marine, Sugar and Alcohol, Power and Turkey, each offering a specific product or service. For details on the respective products or services of each segment, see Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements included in Seaboard’s annual report for the year ended December 31, 2021.
On January 1, 2022, Seaboard’s Pork segment sold a 50% interest in Seaboard de Mexico USA LLC, its ham-boning operations in Mexico, to Triumph Foods, LLC, a partner in the Pork segment’s other joint ventures, for cash proceeds of approximately $9 million, net of cash sold. As a result of this transaction, the subsidiary was deconsolidated and Seaboard’s
Pork segment recognized a $6 million gain on sale of a controlling interest in a subsidiary, classified in Miscellaneous, net. Seaboard’s Pork segment retained a 50% non-controlling interest in Seaboard de Mexico USA LLC, valued at $12 million, that will be accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

The following tables present Seaboard’s operating income (loss) and income (loss) from affiliates by segment. Operating income (loss) for segment reporting is prepared on the same basis as that used for consolidated operating income. Operating income (loss), along with income or loss from affiliates for the Pork, CT&M and Turkey segments, is used as the measure of evaluating segment performance because management does not consider interest, other investment income (loss) and income tax benefit (expense) on a segment basis. Administrative services provided by the corporate office are allocated to the individual segments and represent corporate services rendered to and costs incurred for each specific segment, with no allocation to individual segments of general corporate management oversight costs.

The Turkey segment, accounted for using the equity method, represents Seaboard’s investment in Butterball, LLC (“Butterball”). As of April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Butterball had total assets of $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. Butterball’s summarized income statement information was as follows:
Net sales
399

Operating income (loss)
(16)
Net income (loss)
Since 2010, Seaboard has held warrants, which upon exercise for a nominal price, enable Seaboard to acquire an additional 5% equity interest in Butterball. The warrants qualified for equity treatment under accounting standards and were classified as investments in and advances to affiliates in the consolidated balance sheets. Seaboard could exercise
these warrants at any time prior to December 31, 2025, when the warrants would have expired. Butterball had the right to repurchase the warrants for fair market value. The warrant agreement essentially provided Seaboard with a 52.5% economic interest, as these warrants were in substance an additional equity interest. Therefore, Seaboard has historically recorded 52.5% of Butterball’s earnings as income (loss) from affiliates in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. On April 19, 2022, Seaboard exercised these warrants for nominal consideration to acquire the additional 5% percent of the issued and outstanding stock units in Butterball, resulting in no impact to the financial statements. All significant corporate governance matters upon exercise are still to be shared equally between Seaboard and its partner in Butterball. Seaboard did not acquire any new consequential rights upon exercise of the warrants.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Management Discussion and Analysis is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, Seaboard's condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes found above. Certain statements in this report contain forward-looking statements. See the section below entitled "Forward-looking Statements" for more information on these forward-looking statements, including a discussion of the most significant factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Management believes Seaboard’s combination of liquidity, internally generated cash, capital resources and borrowing capabilities are adequate for its existing operations and any currently known potential plans for expansion in both the short-term and long-term. Management intends to continue seeking opportunities for expansion in the industries in which Seaboard operates, utilizing existing liquidity, available borrowing capacity and other financing alternatives. The terms and availability of such financing may be impacted by economic and financial market conditions, as well as Seaboard’s financial condition and results of operations at the time Seaboard seeks such financing, and there can be no assurances that Seaboard will be able to obtain such financing on terms that will be acceptable or advantageous.
Liquidity includes cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and availability under line of credit facilities. As of April 2, 2022, Seaboard had cash and short-term investments of nearly $1.4 billion and additional total net working capital of $1.0 billion. The following table presents a summary of Seaboard’s available borrowing capacity under lines of credit.

Amounts drawn against lines

Available borrowing capacity as of April 2, 2022
541
As of April 2, 2022, $91 million of the $1.4 billion of cash and short-term investments were held by Seaboard’s foreign subsidiaries. Historically, Seaboard has considered substantially all foreign profits as being permanently invested in its foreign operations, including all cash and short-term investments held by foreign subsidiaries. Seaboard intends to continue permanently reinvesting these funds outside the United States (“U.S.”) as current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund Seaboard’s U.S. operations. For any planned repatriation to the U.S., Seaboard would record applicable deferred taxes for state or foreign withholding taxes.
Cash Flows
Cash and short-term investments as of April 2, 2022 decreased $102 million to $1.4 billion from December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of the liquidation of short-term investments for working capital and capital expenditure needs and the volatility in the capital markets. Cash from operating activities increased $256 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to timing of inventory purchases.
During the three months ended April 2, 2022, Seaboard invested $161 million in property, plant and equipment, of which $67 million was in the Pork segment for biogas recovery projects and other investments, and $86 million in the Marine segment to purchase two used vessels. For the remainder of 2022, management has budgeted capital expenditures totaling approximately $595 million. The Pork segment planned expenditures are primarily for biogas recovery projects, normal replacement of breeding herd and other investments. At certain hog farms, the Pork segment is constructing and covering lagoons and constructing biogas upgrade facilities to capture methane and inject renewable gas to the local pipeline infrastructure. The Marine segment planned expenditures include installment payments on three vessels under construction
with completion expected in 2024. Management anticipates paying for these capital expenditures from a combination of available cash, the use of available short-term investments and Seaboard’s available borrowing capacity.
Seaboard’s line of credit balances are used to fund working capital and investments in capital expenditures, as needed. The primary debt outstanding is a Term Loan due in 2028 with a balance of $676 million as of April 2, 2022.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales for the three-month period of 2022 increased $650 million over the same period in 2021. The increase primarily reflected higher sales prices and volumes of certain commodities in the CT&M segment, higher freight rates in the Marine segment and higher biodiesel prices in the Pork segment.
Operating income increased $54 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase primarily reflected higher voyage revenue in the Marine segment, partially offset by derivative commodity contract losses and lower margins on pork product sales in the Pork segment and derivative commodity contract losses in the CT&M segment.
Pork Segment
Net sales for the Pork segment increased $55 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily the result of higher biodiesel prices and increased sales of biofuel credits, and to a lesser extent, higher prices of pork products sold largely offset by a decrease in volumes.
Operating income for the Pork segment decreased $34 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to biodiesel-related mark-to-market derivative contract losses and lower margins on pork product sales due to higher hog costs, including feed, and plant processing costs. Management is unable to predict market prices for pork products or biodiesel or the cost of feed or third-party hogs for future periods; however, management anticipates this segment will be profitable for the remainder of 2022.
CT&M Segment
Operating income as reported
Mark-to-market adjustments
Operating income excluding mark-to-market adjustments
Net sales for the CT&M segment increased $419 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase primarily reflected higher sales prices and volumes of certain commodities to third-party customers, and to a lesser extent, higher prices to affiliates.
Operating income for this segment decreased $4 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease primarily reflected derivative contract losses related to mark-to-market adjustments, partially offset by higher margins on certain products. Due to worldwide commodity price fluctuations, the uncertain political and economic conditions in the countries in which this segment operates and the volatility in the commodity markets, management is unable to predict sales and operating results for this segment for future periods. However, management anticipates positive operating income for this segment for the remainder of 2022, excluding the effects of marking to market derivative contracts.
Had Seaboard not applied mark-to-market accounting to its derivative instruments, operating income for this segment would have been higher by $18 million and $11 million for the three-month period of 2022 and 2021, respectively. While management believes its commodity futures, options and foreign exchange contracts are primarily economic hedges of its firm purchase and sales contracts and anticipated sales contracts, Seaboard does not perform the extensive record-keeping required to account for these transactions as hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, while the changes in value of the derivative instruments were marked to market, the changes in value of the firm purchase or sales contracts were not. As products are delivered to customers, these existing mark-to-market adjustments should be primarily offset by realized margins or losses as revenue is recognized over time, and these mark-to-market adjustments could reverse in 2022. Management believes eliminating these mark-to-market adjustments provides a more reasonable presentation to compare and evaluate period-to-period financial results for this segment.
Marine Segment
Net sales for the Marine segment increased $166 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily the result of higher freight rates due to strong demand, and to a much lesser extent, higher cargo volumes.
Operating income for this segment increased $92 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily the result of higher voyage revenue, partially offset by higher charter hire costs due to increased rates, higher fuel costs due to price, and higher other costs related to the increase in cargo volumes. Management cannot predict changes in fuel costs or other voyage costs, cargo volumes or cargo rates for future periods; however, management anticipates this segment will be profitable for the remainder of 2022.
Sugar and Alcohol Segment
Net sales for the Sugar and Alcohol segment increased $5 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase primarily reflected higher prices of alcohol sold due to governmental price adjustments. Higher prices of sugar sold were partially offset by lower volumes. Sugar and alcohol sales are denominated in Argentine pesos, and an increase in local sales prices may be offset by exchange rate changes in the Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar.
Operating income for the Sugar and Alcohol segment increased $1 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase primarily reflected higher margins on alcohol sales. Management cannot predict local sugar and alcohol prices or the volatility in the currency exchange rate for future periods. Based on these conditions, management cannot predict if this segment will be profitable for the remainder of 2022.
Power Segment
Operating loss
Net sales for the Power segment increased $5 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase primarily reflected higher spot market rates as a result of higher fuel prices.
Operating loss for the Power segment increased $3 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher operational costs related to increased fuel and maintenance costs. Higher fuel costs generally have been passed on to customers, yet lower cost power plants are dispatched before those with higher costs. Management cannot predict fuel costs or the extent that spot market rates will fluctuate compared to fuel costs or other power producers for future periods. Also, management cannot predict the precise timing of when the barge expected to be completed in 2022 will generate sales. Based on these conditions, management cannot predict if this segment will be profitable for the remainder of 2022. Commercial operations for the barge under construction are anticipated to begin later this year and management continues to explore strategic alternatives for the existing barge, including a sale or relocation.
Turkey Segment
Income (loss) from affiliates
The Turkey segment, accounted for using the equity method, represents Seaboard’s investment in Butterball, LLC. The increase in income from affiliates for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily the result of higher selling prices with more value-added products, partially offset by higher feed, plant production and transportation costs. Also, the income from affiliates for the first quarter of 2022 includes Seaboard’s portion of a gain on the sale of a business. Management is unable to predict market prices for turkey products or the cost of feed for future periods. Based on these conditions, management cannot predict if this segment will be profitable for the remainder of 2022.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $8 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily related to mark-to-market gains on interest rate swap agreements in the prior year. There were no interest rate swap agreements outstanding as of April 2, 2022. During the first quarter of 2022 and 2021, Seaboard received its annual patronage dividend on the Term Loan due 2028.
Other Investment Income (Loss), Net
Other investment income, net decreased $136 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to mark-to-market fluctuations on short-term investments and less realized gains.
Foreign Currency Gains (Losses), Net
Foreign currency gains, net decreased $9 million for the three-month period of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to fluctuations in the South African rand among fluctuations of other currency exchange rates in several foreign countries.
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
The effective tax rate for the three-month period of 2022 was higher than the three-month period of 2021 primarily due to the decreased amount of tax credits available for the three-month period of 2022.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Seaboard is exposed to various types of market risks in its day-to-day operations. Primary market risk exposures result from changing commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. Occasionally, Seaboard utilizes derivative instruments to manage these overall market risks. The nature of Seaboard’s market risk exposure related to these items has not changed materially since December 31, 2021. See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures — Seaboard’s management evaluated, under the direction of the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers, the effectiveness of Seaboard’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of April 2, 2022. Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, Seaboard’s Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers
concluded that Seaboard’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports it files and submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. It should be noted that any system of disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any system of disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Due to these and other inherent limitations of any such system, there can be no assurance that any design will always succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting — There have been no changes in Seaboard’s internal control over financial reporting required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Seaboard’s internal control over financial reporting.
