The increase was due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts primarily related to the euro, Japanese yen and Australian dollar. The increase in sales volume was driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories, higher sales of equipment to end users and higher services. Dealers increased inventories by$700 million during the third quarter of 2022, compared with a decrease of$300 million during the third quarter of 2021. Sales were higher across the three primary segments. Third-quarter 2022 profit per share was$3.87 , compared with$2.60 profit per share in the third quarter of 2021. Profit per share for both quarters included restructuring costs. Profit for the third quarter of 2022 was$2.041 billion , an increase of$615 million , or 43%, compared with$1.426 billion for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs and higher selling, general and administrative (SG&A) and research and development (R&D) expenses. Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, freight and the impact of manufacturing inefficiencies. SG&A/R&D expenses increased primarily due to investments aligned with the company's strategy for profitable growth and higher short-term incentive compensation expense. 45

Global Business Conditions: We continue to monitor a variety of external factors around the world, such as supply chain disruptions, inflationary cost and labor pressures. Areas of particular focus include certain components, transportation and raw materials. Transportation shortages have resulted in delays and increased costs. In addition, our suppliers are dealing with availability issues and freight delays, which leads to pressure on production in our facilities. Contingency plans have been developed and continue to be modified to minimize supply chain challenges that may impact our ability to meet increasing customer demand. We continue to assess the environment and are taking appropriate price actions in response to rising costs. We will continue to monitor the situation as conditions remain fluid and evolve throughout the year. We address these external factors throughout the discussion in the Consolidated Results of Operations section below.

CONSOLIDATED SALES AND REVENUES
[[Image Removed: cat-20220930_g2.jpg]] The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated sales and revenues between the third quarter of 2021 (at left) and the third quarter of 2022 (at right).Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company's Board of Directors and employees. Total sales and revenues for the third quarter of 2022 were$14.994 billion , an increase of$2.597 billion , or 21 percent, compared with$12.397 billion in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts primarily related to the euro, Japanese yen and Australian dollar. The increase in sales volume was driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories, higher sales of equipment to end users and higher services. Dealers increased inventories by$700 million during the third quarter of 2022, compared with a decrease of$300 million during the third quarter of 2021.
Sales were higher across the three primary segments.
North America sales increased 33 percent due to favorable price realization, the impact from changes in dealer inventories, services and higher sales of equipment to end users. Dealers increased inventories during the third quarter of 2022, compared with a decrease during the third quarter of 2021. Sales increased 36 percent inLatin America due to favorable price realization, higher sales of equipment to end users and the impact from changes in dealer inventories. Dealers increased inventories during the third quarter of 2022, compared with remaining about flat during the third quarter of 2021. EAME sales increased 8 percent as unfavorable currency impacts, primarily related to the euro and British pound, were more than offset by favorable price realization, the impact from changes in dealer inventories and higher sales of equipment to end users. Dealers increased inventories during the third quarter of 2022, compared with remaining about flat during the third quarter of 2021.Asia/Pacific sales increased 9 percent driven by favorable price realization and the impact from changes in dealer inventories, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts, related to the Japanese yen and Australian dollar. Dealers increased inventories during the third quarter of 2022, compared with a decrease during the third quarter of 2021. Dealers increased inventories by$700 million during the third quarter of 2022, compared with a decrease of$300 million during the third quarter of 2021. Most of the increase related to timing differences between when we ship product to dealers and when the dealers, in turn, are able to deliver completed orders to customers. Dealers are independent, and the reasons for changes in their inventory levels vary, including their expectations of future demand and product delivery times. Dealers' demand expectations take into account seasonal changes, macroeconomic conditions, machine rentals and other factors. Delivery times can vary based on availability of product fromCaterpillar factories and product distribution centers. At year end, we expect dealer inventory levels to be similar to the third quarter of 2022. 47

The bar titled Other includes consolidating adjustments and Machinery, Energy & Transportation's other operating (income) expenses. Operating profit for the third quarter of 2022 was$2.425 billion , an increase of$761 million , or 46 percent, compared with$1.664 billion in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by higher manufacturing costs and higher SG&A/R&D expenses. Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, freight and the impact of manufacturing inefficiencies, due to ongoing disruptions to the supply chain. SG&A/R&D expenses increased primarily due to investments aligned with the company's strategy for profitable growth, which included services growth and technology, such as digital, electrification and autonomy, as well as higher short-term incentive compensation expense.

Other Profit/Loss and Tax Items
?Interest expense excluding Financial Products in the third quarter of 2022 was$109 million , compared with$114 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease was due to lower average debt outstanding during the third quarter of 2022, compared with the third quarter of 2021. ?Other income (expense) in the third quarter of 2022 was income of$242 million , compared with income of$225 million in the third quarter of 2021. The change was primarily driven by favorable impacts from foreign currency exchange and higher investment and interest income, partially offset by lower gains on marketable securities and lower pension and other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plan income. ?The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2022 reflected an estimated annual tax rate of 23 percent, compared with 25 percent for the third quarter of 2021, excluding the discrete items discussed below. The comparative tax rate for full-year 2021 was approximately 23 percent. In the third quarter of 2022, the company reached a settlement with theU.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that resolves all issues for tax years 2007 through 2016, without any penalties. The company's settlement includes, among other issues, the resolution of disputed tax treatment of profits earned byCaterpillar SARL (CSARL) from certain parts transactions. We vigorously contested theIRS's application of the "substance-over-form" or "assignment-of-income" judicial doctrines and its proposed increases to tax and imposition of accuracy related penalties. The settlement does not include any increases to tax inthe United States based on those judicial doctrines and does not include any penalties. The final tax assessed by theIRS for all issues under the settlement was$490 million for the ten-year period. This amount was primarily paid in the third quarter of 2022, and the associated estimated interest of$250 million is expected to be paid by the end of 2022. The settlement was within the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions and enables us to avoid the costs and burdens of further disputes with theIRS . As a result of the settlement, we recorded a discrete tax benefit of$41 million to reflect changes in estimates of prior years' taxes and related interest, net of tax. We are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by theIRS , and tax years subsequent to 2016 are not yet under examination. The provision for income taxes in third quarter of 2022 also included a$20 million benefit due to a decrease in the estimated annual tax rate, compared to$39 million in the third quarter of 2021. The company also recorded a discrete tax benefit of$36 million to reflect changes in estimates related to the prior year'sU.S. taxes in the third quarter of 2021.
Construction Industries' total sales were$6.276 billion in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$1.021 billion , or 19 percent, compared with$5.255 billion in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts primarily related to the euro, Japanese yen and Australian dollar. The increase in sales volume was driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories. Dealer inventory increased during the third quarter of 2022, compared with a decrease during the third quarter of 2021. ?In North America , sales increased due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume. Higher sales volume was driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories. Dealer inventory decreased during the third quarter of 2021, compared with an increase during the third quarter of 2022. Dealer inventories inNorth America remained at relatively low levels. ?Sales increased inLatin America primarily due to higher sales volume and favorable price realization. Higher sales volume was driven by higher sales of equipment to end users and the impact from changes in dealer inventories. Dealer inventory increased more during the third quarter of 2022 than during the third quarter of 2021.
?In EAME, sales were about flat. Unfavorable currency impacts, primarily related to the euro, were offset by favorable price realization.

Construction Industries' profit was$1.209 billion in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$343 million , or 40 percent, compared with$866 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was mainly due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs and higher SG&A/R&D expenses. Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, freight and the impact of manufacturing inefficiencies. The increase in SG&A/R&D expenses was primarily driven by investments aligned with strategic initiatives and higher short-term incentive compensation expense.Construction Industries' profit as a percent of total sales was 19.3 percent in the third quarter of 2022, compared with 16.5 percent in the third quarter of 2021. 50

Construction Industries' segment profit as a percent of total sales is expected to improve in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. We expectNorth America residential construction to moderate due to tightening financial conditions but remain at relatively high levels. We expect non-residential construction to strengthen due to investments related to government infrastructure initiatives. InAsia Pacific , excludingChina , we expect moderate growth due to higher infrastructure spending and commodity prices. We expect continued weakness inChina in the above 10-ton excavator industry. In EAME, business activity is expected to be flat to slightly down versus last year based on uncertain economic conditions inEurope . Construction activity inLatin America is expected to grow due to supportive commodity prices. We also expect favorable price realization in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. The favorable impact of price realization is expected to more than offset manufacturing cost increases in the fourth quarter of 2022.Resource Industries Resource Industries' total sales were$3.087 billion in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$721 million , or 30 percent, compared with$2.366 billion in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume. The increase in sales volume was due to the impact of changes in dealer inventories, higher sales of aftermarket parts and higher sales of equipment to end users. Dealer inventory decreased during the third quarter of 2021, compared with an increase during the third quarter of 2022.Resource Industries' profit was$506 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$226 million , or 81 percent, compared with$280 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was mainly due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs and higher SG&A/R&D expenses. Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, freight and the impact of manufacturing inefficiencies. The increase in SG&A/R&D expenses was primarily driven by investments aligned with strategic initiatives.
Resource Industries' segment profit as a percent of total sales is expected to improve in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. Commodity prices remain supportive of continued investment. We expect production and utilization levels will remain elevated, and our autonomous solutions continue to gain momentum. We expect the continuation of high equipment utilization and a low level of parked trucks, which both support future demand for our equipment and services. InHeavy Construction and Quarry and Aggregates, we anticipate continued growth in the fourth quarter. We also expect price realization to be favorable in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. The favorable impact from price realization is expected to more than offset manufacturing cost increases in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Energy & Transportation's profit was$935 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$229 million , or 32 percent, compared with$706 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs and higher SG&A/R&D expenses. Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, freight and the impact of manufacturing inefficiencies. The increase in SG&A/R&D expenses was primarily driven by investments aligned with strategic initiatives, including electrification and services growth, higher labor-related costs and higher short-term incentive compensation expense. Energy & Transportation's profit as a percent of total sales was 15.1 percent in the third quarter of 2022, compared with 13.9 percent in the third quarter of 2021. Energy & Transportation's segment profit as a percent of total sales is expected to improve in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. InOil & Gas , we are encouraged by continued strength in reciprocating engine orders, especially for large engine repowers as asset utilization increases. New equipment orders for turbine and turbine-related services strengthened significantly, particularly in Oil & Gas. Power Generation orders remain healthy due to positive industry dynamics and continued data center strength. Industrial remains healthy with continued momentum in construction, agriculture and electric power. We also anticipate growth in high-speed marine as customers continue to upgrade aging fleets. We also expect favorable price realization in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. The favorable impact from price realization is expected to more than offset manufacturing cost increases in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Financial Products Segment
Financial Products' segment revenues were$819 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$57 million , or 7 percent, compared with$762 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher average financing rates inNorth America andLatin America . Financial Products' segment profit was$220 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of$47 million , or 27 percent, compared with$173 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was mainly due to a favorable impact from a lower provision for credit losses at Cat Financial, partially offset by mark-to-market adjustments on derivative contracts. At the end of the third quarter of 2022, past dues at Cat Financial were 2.00 percent, compared with 2.41 percent at the end of the third quarter of 2021. Past dues decreased across all our portfolio segments, with the exception of an increase inLatin America .

Operating profit for the nine months ended
Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material costs, freight and the impact of manufacturing inefficiencies. For 2022, price realization is expected to more than offset manufacturing cost increases. The increase in SG&A/R&D expenses was driven by investments aligned with the company's strategy for profitable growth, which included services growth and technology, such as digital, electrification and autonomy, as well as higher short-term incentive compensation expense. Short-term incentive compensation expense is directly related to financial and operational performance, measured against targets set annually. Expense for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , was about$1.2 billion , compared with about$1.1 billion for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . For 2022, short-term incentive compensation expense is expected to be about$1.6 billion , compared with$1.3 billion in 2021.

Other Profit/Loss and Tax Items
?Interest expense excluding Financial Products for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , was$326 million , compared with$376 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . The decrease was due to lower average debt outstanding during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , compared with the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . ?Other income (expense) for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , was income of$755 million , about flat compared with income of$751 million for the nine monthsSeptember 30, 2021 . Favorable impacts from foreign currency exchange were offset by unrealized losses on marketable securities and lower pension and OPEB income. ?The provision for income taxes for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , reflected an estimated annual tax rate of 23 percent, compared with 25 percent for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 , excluding the discrete items discussed below. The comparative tax rate for full-year 2021 was approximately 23 percent. OnSeptember 8, 2022 , the company reached a settlement with theU.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that resolves all issues for tax years 2007 through 2016, without any penalties. The company's settlement includes, among other issues, the resolution of disputed tax treatment of profits earned byCaterpillar SARL (CSARL) from certain parts transactions. We vigorously contested theIRS's application of the "substance-over-form" or "assignment-of-income" judicial doctrines and its proposed increases to tax and imposition of accuracy related penalties. The settlement does not include any increases to tax inthe United States based on those judicial doctrines and does not include any penalties. The final tax assessed by theIRS for all issues under the settlement was$490 million for the ten-year period. This amount was primarily paid in the nine months endingSeptember 30, 2022 , and the associated estimated interest of$250 million is expected to be paid by the end of 2022. The settlement was within the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions and enables us to avoid the costs and burdens of further disputes with theIRS . As a result of the settlement, we recorded a discrete tax benefit of$41 million to reflect changes in estimates of prior years' taxes and related interest, net of tax. We are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by theIRS , and tax years subsequent to 2016 are not yet under examination. In the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , the company also recorded discrete tax benefits of$49 million to reflect other changes in estimates related to prior years'U.S. taxes, compared to$36 million in the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . In addition, the company recorded a discrete tax benefit of$18 million for the settlement of stock-based compensation awards with associated tax deductions in excess of cumulativeU.S. GAAP compensation expense, compared with a$61 million benefit for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 .Construction Industries Construction Industries' total sales were$18.424 billion for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , an increase of$2.054 billion , or 13 percent, compared with$16.370 billion for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . The increase was due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts related to the euro, Japanese yen and Australian dollar. The increase in sales volume was driven by the impact from changes in dealer inventories and higher sales of aftermarket parts, partially offset by lower sales of equipment to end users. Dealers increased inventories more during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , than during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2021 . •In North America, sales increased due to favorable price realization, the impact from changes in dealer inventories, higher sales of aftermarket parts and higher sales of equipment to end users.

RESTRUCTURING COSTS
In 2022, we expect to incur about$800 million of restructuring costs primarily related to strategic actions to address a small number of products. Approximately$600 million of the total is a non-cash charge related to the release of accumulated foreign currency translation losses that will be recognized upon the sale of a business containing some of these products, which may not occur until 2023. We expect that prior restructuring actions will result in an incremental benefit to operating costs, primarily Cost of goods sold and SG&A expenses of about$75 million in 2022 compared with 2021.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources of funds
We generate significant capital resources from operating activities, which are the primary source of funding for our ME&T operations. Funding for these businesses is also available from commercial paper and long-term debt issuances. Financial Products' operations are funded primarily from commercial paper, term debt issuances and collections from its existing portfolio. On a consolidated basis, we had positive operating cash flow in the first nine months of 2022 and ended the third quarter with$6.35 billion of cash, a decrease of$2.91 billion from year-end 2021. In addition, ME&T has invested in available-for-sale debt securities that are considered highly liquid and are available for current operations. These securities are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and were$982 million at the end ofSeptember 30, 2022 . We intend to maintain a strong cash and liquidity position. Consolidated operating cash flow for the first nine months of 2022 was$5.03 billion , down$759 million compared to the same period a year ago. The decrease was primarily due to payments for short-term incentive compensation in the first quarter of 2022 as well as higher cash taxes paid which includes payments related to settlements with theU.S. Internal Revenue Service . Partially offsetting these items was higher profit adjusted for non-cash items during the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year. Total debt as ofSeptember 30, 2022 was$36.53 billion , a decrease of$1.26 billion from year-end 2021. Debt related to ME&T decreased$192 million in the first nine months of 2022 while debt related to Financial Products decreased$1.07 billion . As ofSeptember 30, 2022 , we had three global credit facilities with a syndicate of banks totaling$10.50 billion (Credit Facility) available in the aggregate to bothCaterpillar and Cat Financial for general liquidity purposes. Based on management's allocation decision, which can be revised from time to time, the portion of the Credit Facility available to ME&T as ofSeptember 30, 2022 was$2.75 billion . Information on our Credit Facility is as follows: •InSeptember 2022 , we entered into a new 364-day facility. The 364-day facility of$3.15 billion (of which$825 million is available to ME&T) expires inAugust 2023 .
•In
•InSeptember 2022 , we amended and restated the five-year facility (as amended and restated, the "five-year facility"). The five-year facility of$4.62 billion (of which$1.21 billion is available to ME&T) expires inSeptember 2027 . AtSeptember 30, 2022 ,Caterpillar's consolidated net worth was$15.69 billion , which was above the$9.00 billion required under the Credit Facility. The consolidated net worth is defined in the Credit Facility as the consolidated shareholders' equity including preferred stock but excluding the pension and other postretirement benefits balance within Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). AtSeptember 30, 2022 , Cat Financial's covenant interest coverage ratio was 2.59 to 1. This was above the 1.15 to 1 minimum ratio calculated as (1) profit excluding income taxes, interest expense and net gain (loss) from interest rate derivatives to (2) interest expense calculated at the end of each calendar quarter for the rolling four quarter period then most recently ended, required by the Credit Facility. In addition, atSeptember 30, 2022 , Cat Financial's six-month covenant leverage ratio was 7.03 to 1. This was below the maximum ratio of debt to net worth of 10 to 1, calculated (1) on a monthly basis as the average of the leverage ratios determined on the last day of each of the six preceding calendar months and (2) at eachDecember 31 , required by the Credit Facility. In the eventCaterpillar or Cat Financial does not meet one or more of their respective financial covenants under the Credit Facility in the future (and are unable to obtain a consent or waiver), the syndicate of banks may terminate the commitments allocated to the party that does not meet its covenants. Additionally, in such event, certain of Cat Financial's other lenders under other loan agreements where similar financial covenants or cross default provisions are applicable may, at their election, choose to pursue remedies under those loan agreements, including accelerating the repayment of outstanding borrowings. AtSeptember 30, 2022 , there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility.

These committed and uncommitted credit lines, which may be eligible for renewal at various future dates or have no specified expiration date, are used primarily by our subsidiaries for local funding requirements.Caterpillar or Cat Financial may guarantee subsidiary borrowings under these lines. We receive debt ratings from the major credit rating agencies. Moody's, Fitch and S&P maintain a "mid-A" debt rating. A downgrade of our credit ratings by any of the major credit rating agencies would result in increased borrowing costs and could make access to certain credit markets more difficult. In the event economic conditions deteriorate such that access to debt markets becomes unavailable, ME&T's operations would rely on cash flow from operations, use of existing cash balances, borrowings from Cat Financial and access to our committed credit facilities. Our Financial Products' operations would rely on cash flow from its existing portfolio, existing cash balances, access to our committed credit facilities and other credit line facilities of Cat Financial, and potential borrowings fromCaterpillar . In addition, we maintain a support agreement with Cat Financial, which requiresCaterpillar to remain the sole owner of Cat Financial and may, under certain circumstances, requireCaterpillar to make payments to Cat Financial should Cat Financial fail to maintain certain financial ratios. We facilitate voluntary supply chain finance programs (the "Programs") through participating financial institutions. The Programs are available to a wide range of suppliers and allow them the option to manage their cash flow. We are not a party to the agreements between the participating financial institutions and the suppliers in connection with the Programs. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the Programs. The amounts payable to participating financial institutions for suppliers who voluntarily participate in the Programs and included in accounts payable in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position were$894 million and$822 million atSeptember 30, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 , respectively. The amounts settled through the Programs and paid to participating financial institutions were$4.0 billion and$2.9 billion during the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. We account for payments made under the Programs, the same as our other accounts payable, as a reduction to our cash flows from operations. We do not believe that changes in the availability of supply chain financing will have a significant impact on our liquidity.
Machinery, Energy & Transportation
Net cash provided by operating activities was$3.19 billion in the first nine months of 2022, compared with net cash provided of$4.90 billion for the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to payments for short-term incentive compensation in the first quarter of 2022, higher payments for taxes which includes payments related to settlements with theU.S. Internal Revenue Service and increased working capital requirements during the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period last year. Within working capital, changes in inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses unfavorably impacted cash flow but were partially offset by favorable changes in customer advances and accounts receivable. Partially offsetting these unfavorable items was higher profit adjusted for non-cash items during the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period a year ago. Net cash used by investing activities in the first nine months of 2022 was$881 million , compared with net cash used of$487 million in the first nine months of 2021. The change was primarily due to decreased activity related to intercompany lending with Financial Products and was partially offset by decreases in net investment activity. Net cash used for financing activities during the first nine months of 2022 was$5.29 billion , compared with net cash used of$4.67 billion in the same period of 2021. The change was primarily due to higher share repurchases in the first nine months of 2022 and the absence of proceeds from debt issuances which occurred in the first nine months of 2021. These items were partially offset by lower repayments of maturing debt during the first nine months of 2022. 62 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents While our short-term priorities for the use of cash may vary from time to time as business needs and conditions dictate, our long-term cash deployment strategy is focused on the following priorities. Our top priority is to maintain a strong financial position in support of a mid-A rating. Next, we intend to fund operational requirements and commitments. Then, we intend to fund priorities that profitably grow the company and return capital to shareholders through dividend growth and share repurchases. Additional information on cash deployment is as follows: Strong financial position - Our top priority is to maintain a strong financial position in support of a mid-A rating. We track a diverse group of financial metrics that focus on liquidity, leverage, cash flow and margins which align with our cash deployment actions and the various methodologies used by the major credit rating agencies. Operational excellence and commitments - Capital expenditures were$880 million during the first nine months of 2022, compared to$693 million for the same period in 2021. We expect ME&T's capital expenditures in 2022 to be about$1.4 billion . We made$299 million of contributions to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans during the first nine months of 2022. We currently anticipate full-year 2022 contributions of approximately$357 million . In comparison, we made$229 million of contributions to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans during the first nine months of 2021. Fund strategic growth initiatives and return capital to shareholders - We intend to utilize our liquidity and debt capacity to fund targeted investments that drive long-term profitable growth focused in the areas of expanded offerings and services, including acquisitions. As part of our capital allocation strategy, ME&T free cash flow is a liquidity measure we use to determine the cash generated and available for financing activities including debt repayments, dividends and share repurchases. We define ME&T free cash flow as cash from ME&T operations less capital expenditures, excluding discretionary pension and other postretirement benefit plan contributions and cash payments related to settlements with theU.S. Internal Revenue Service . A goal of our capital allocation strategy is to return substantially all ME&T free cash flow to shareholders over time in the form of dividends and share repurchases, while maintaining our mid-A rating. Our share repurchase plans are subject to the company's cash deployment priorities and are evaluated on an ongoing basis considering the financial condition of the company and the economic outlook, corporate cash flow, the company's liquidity needs, and the health and stability of global credit markets. The timing and amount of future repurchases may vary depending on market conditions and investing priorities. InJuly 2018 , the Board approved a repurchase authorization (the 2018 Authorization) of up to$10.0 billion ofCaterpillar common stock effectiveJanuary 1, 2019 , with no expiration. InMay 2022 , the Board approved a new share repurchase authorization (the 2022 Authorization) of up to$15.0 billion ofCaterpillar common stock effectiveAugust 1, 2022 , with no expiration. Utilization of the 2022 Authorization for all share repurchases commenced onAugust 1, 2022 , leaving$70 million unutilized under the 2018 Authorization as ofSeptember 30, 2022 . In the first nine months of 2022, we repurchased$3.31 billion ofCaterpillar common stock, with$13.7 billion remaining under the 2022 Authorization as ofSeptember 30, 2022 . Our basic shares outstanding as ofSeptember 30, 2022 were approximately 520 million. Each quarter, our Board of Directors reviews the company's dividend for the applicable quarter. The Board evaluates the financial condition of the company and considers the economic outlook, corporate cash flow, the company's liquidity needs, and the health and stability of global credit markets to determine whether to maintain or change the quarterly dividend. InOctober 2022 , the Board of Directors approved maintaining our quarterly dividend representing$1.20 per share, and we continue to expect our strong financial position to support the dividend. Dividends paid totaled$1.82 billion in the first nine months of 2022. Financial Products Financial Products operating cash flow was$1.25 billion in the first nine months of 2022, compared with$1.10 billion for the same period a year ago. Net cash used for investing activities was$228 million for the first nine months of 2022, compared with net cash used of$468 million for the same period in 2021. The change was primarily due to portfolio related activity. Net cash used for financing activities was$872 million for the first nine months of 2022 compared with net cash used of$289 million for the same period in 2021. The change was primarily due to lower portfolio funding requirements. Financial Products ended the third quarter of 2022 with$943 million of cash, including$142 million inRussia which is currently subject to local government restrictions that substantially limit transfer outside of the country.

For a discussion of the company's critical accounting estimates, see Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates since our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. OTHER MATTERS

Retirement Benefits
We recognize mark-to-market gains and losses immediately through earnings upon the remeasurement of our pension and OPEB plans. Mark-to-market gains and losses represent the effects of actual results differing from our assumptions and the effects of changing assumptions. We will record the annual mark-to-market adjustment as of the measurement date,December 31, 2022 . It is difficult to predict theDecember 31, 2022 adjustment amount, as it will be dependent primarily on changes in discount rates during 2022, and actual returns on plan assets differing from our expected returns for 2022.
Order Backlog
At the end of the third quarter of 2022, the dollar amount of backlog believed to be firm was approximately$30.0 billion , about$1.6 billion higher than the second quarter of 2022. The order backlog increase was primarily driven by Energy &Transportation and Construction Industries . Of the total backlog atSeptember 30, 2022 , approximately$5.7 billion was not expected to be filled in the following twelve months. 64 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES We provide the following definitions for the non-GAAP financial measures used in this report. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed byU.S. GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures for other companies. Management does not intend these items to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. We believe it is important to separately quantify the profit impact of one significant item in order for our results to be meaningful to our readers. This item consists of restructuring costs, which were incurred to generate longer-term benefits. We do not consider this item indicative of earnings from ongoing business activities and believe the non-GAAP measure provides investors with useful perspective on underlying business results and trends and aids with assessing our period-over-period results. In addition, we provide a calculation of ME&T free cash flow as we believe it is an important measure for investors to determine the cash generation available for financing activities including debt repayments, dividends and share repurchases.
