Second-quarter sales and revenues decreased 31%; profit per share declined 70% 
 
Strong balance sheet; $8.8 billion of enterprise cash 
 
DEERFIELD, Ill. - Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) today announced second-quarter 2020 sales and 
revenues of $10.0 billion, a 31% decrease compared with $14.4 billion in the second quarter of 
2019. The decline was due to lower sales volume driven by lower end-user demand and the impact 
from changes in dealer inventories. Dealers decreased machine and engine inventories about $1.4 
billion during the second quarter of 2020, compared with an increase of about $500 million during 
the second quarter of 2019. 
 
Second-quarter 2020 profit per share was $0.84, compared with $2.83 profit per share in the second 
quarter of 2019. Profit per share in the second quarter of 2020 included pre-tax remeasurement 
losses of $122 million, or $0.19 per share, resulting from the settlements of pension obligations. 
 
Operating profit margin was 7.8% for the second quarter of 2020, compared with 15.3% for the 
second quarter of 2019. 
 
For the first half of 2020, enterprise operating cash flow was $2.5 billion. Caterpillar ended the 
second quarter with $8.8 billion of enterprise cash and $18.5 billion of available liquidity 
sources. In July, Cat Financial issued $1.5 billion of new three-year and 18-month medium-term 
notes to supplement its liquidity position. 
 
Response to COVID-19 and Global Business Conditions 
 
"I am proud of the global team's continued focus on safety while executing our strategy and 
serving our customers," said Caterpillar Chairman and CEO Jim Umpleby. "In the second quarter, our 
employees and dealers remained dedicated to providing the essential products and services the 
world needs under very challenging conditions."

Operational Status 
 
Caterpillar continues to implement safeguards in its facilities to protect team members, including 
increased frequency of cleaning and disinfecting, social distancing practices and other measures 
consistent with specific regulatory requirements and guidance from health authorities. 
 
As of mid-July 2020, globally and across Caterpillar's three primary segments, nearly all of the 
company's primary production facilities continued to operate. This continues to fluctuate as 
conditions warrant, including the pace of economic recovery and the potential for additional 
COVID-related temporary shutdowns. 
 
The company has continued to take actions to reduce costs and prioritize its spending to provide 
for investment in services and expanded offerings, key elements of its strategy for profitable 
growth, which was introduced in 2017. 
 
Outlook 
 
Caterpillar's financial results for the remainder of 2020 will be impacted by continued global 
economic uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, Caterpillar withdrew its earnings 
guidance on March 26 and is not providing a financial outlook for 2020 at this time. 
 
"We are well positioned for these challenging times because of the successful execution of our 
strategy," said Umpleby. "We are focused on employee safety and maintaining a competitive and 
flexible cost structure while continuing to invest in services and expanded offerings to better 
serve our customers. We will adjust production as conditions warrant and are prepared to respond 
quickly to any positive or negative changes in customer demand."

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS 
 
Consolidated Sales and Revenues 
 
The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated sales and revenues 
between the second quarter of 2019 (at left) and the second quarter of 2020 (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 second quarter of 2020 were $9.997 billion, a decrease of $4.435 
billion, or 31%, compared with $14.432 billion in the second quarter of 2019. The decline was due 
to lower sales volume driven by lower end-user demand and the impact from changes in dealer 
inventories. Dealers decreased machine and engine inventories about $1.4 billion during the second 
quarter of 2020, compared with an increase of about $500 million during the second quarter of 
2019. The changes in dealer inventories came primarily in Construction Industries and Resource 
Industries. 
 
Unfavorable price realization also contributed to the sales decline due to the geographic mix of 
sales and competitive market conditions in China. Sales were lower across all regions and in the 
three primary segments.

Consolidated Operating Profit 
 
The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated operating profit 
between the second quarter of 2019 (at left) and the second quarter of 2020 (at right). 
Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company's 
Board of Directors and employees. The bar titled Other includes consolidating adjustments and 
Machinery, Energy & Transportation's other operating (income) expenses. 
 
Operating profit for the second quarter of 2020 was $784 million, a decrease of $1.429 billion, or 
65%, compared with $2.213 billion in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was due to lower 
sales volume and unfavorable price realization, partially offset by favorable manufacturing costs 
and lower selling, general and administrative (SG&A) and research and development (R&D) expenses. 
 
Favorable manufacturing costs were mostly driven by lower period manufacturing costs. Both period 
manufacturing costs and SG&A/R&D expenses benefited from reduced short-term incentive compensation 
expense and other cost reductions related to lower sales volumes.

Other Profit/Loss and Tax Items 
 
? Other income (expense) in the second quarter of 2020 was income of $29 million, compared with 
income of $68 million in the second quarter of 2019. The change was primarily due to the 
unfavorable impact of pension and other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plans, including $122 
million of remeasurement losses resulting from the settlements of pension obligations, partially 
offset by favorable impacts from foreign currency exchange gains (losses), primarily due to the 
Australian dollar. 
 
? The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2020 reflected an estimated annual 
tax rate of 31%, excluding a $21 million discrete tax benefit related to the $122 million of 
remeasurement losses resulting from the settlements of pension obligations. The tax rate was 26% 
for the second quarter of 2019. The increase in the estimated annual tax rate was primarily 
related to changes in the expected geographic mix of profits from a tax perspective for 2020, 
including the impact of U.S. tax on non-U.S. earnings as a result of U.S. tax reform.

Construction Industries' total sales were $4.048 billion in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease 
of $2.419 billion, or 37%, compared with $6.467 billion in the second quarter of 2019. The 
decrease was due to lower sales volume, driven by lower end-user demand and the impact from 
changes in dealer inventories. In all regions, dealers decreased inventories during the second 
quarter of 2020, compared with an increase during the second quarter of 2019. Unfavorable price 
realization also contributed to the sales decline due to the geographic mix of sales and 
competitive market conditions in China. 
 
In North America, sales decreased mostly due to lower sales volume driven by lower end-user demand 
and the impact from changes in dealer inventories. The lower end-user demand was driven primarily 
by pipeline and road construction. 
 
Sales declined in Latin America primarily due to lower end-user demand across the region, the 
impact from changes in dealer inventories and unfavorable currency impacts from a weaker Brazilian 
real. 
 
In EAME, sales decreased mostly because of lower sales volume across the region, driven by lower 
end-user demand and the impact from changes in dealer inventories. 
 
Sales declined in Asia/Pacific primarily due to unfavorable price realization and currency impacts 
from a weaker Chinese yuan. In China, sales were about flat as higher end-user demand was mostly 
offset by the impact of changes in dealer inventories and unfavorable price realization. 
 
Construction Industries' profit was $518 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $729 
million, or 58%, compared with $1.247 billion in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was 
mainly due to lower sales volume and unfavorable price realization, partially offset by favorable 
manufacturing costs and lower SG&A/R&D expenses. Favorable manufacturing costs were primarily 
attributed to lower period manufacturing costs. Both period manufacturing costs and SG&A/R&D 
expenses benefited from reduced short-term incentive compensation expense and other cost 
reductions related to lower sales volumes.

Resource Industries' total sales were $1.826 billion in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 
$993 million, or 35%, compared with $2.819 billion in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was 
due to lower sales volume, driven by changes in dealer inventories and lower end-user demand. 
Dealers decreased inventories during the second quarter of 2020, compared with an increase during 
the second quarter of 2019. Lower end-user demand was primarily driven by equipment supporting 
non-residential construction and quarry and aggregates. Mining equipment end-user demand was down 
in the quarter, though to a lesser extent. The company's mining customers faced production 
disruptions impacting machine utilization and aftermarket parts demand. 
 
Resource Industries' profit was $152 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $329 
million, or 68%, compared with $481 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was mainly 
because of lower sales volume, partially offset by favorable manufacturing costs. Favorable 
manufacturing costs were mostly due to lower period manufacturing costs driven by lower short-term 
incentive compensation expense, other cost-reduction actions implemented in response to lower 
sales volumes and the benefits of prior restructuring programs.

decrease of $1.337 billion, or 24%, compared with $5.486 billion in the second quarter of 2019. 
Sales declined across all applications and inter-segment engine sales. 
 
Oil and Gas - Sales decreased mainly due to lower demand in North America for reciprocating 
engines used in gas compression and decreased sales of engine aftermarket parts, partially offset 
by higher sales of turbines and turbine-related services. 
 
Power Generation - Sales decreased primarily due to lower sales volume in small reciprocating 
engine applications and engine aftermarket parts. 
 
Industrial - Sales decreased due to lower demand across all regions. 
 
Transportation - Sales declined in rail due to lower deliveries of locomotives and related 
services and in marine applications, primarily in EAME and Asia/Pacific. 
 
Energy & Transportation's profit was $624 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 
$262 million, or 30%, compared with $886 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was 
due to lower sales volume, partially offset by lower manufacturing costs and SG&A/R&D expenses. 
Manufacturing costs and SG&A/R&D expenses were both impacted by a reduction in short-term 
incentive compensation expense and other cost reductions related to lower sales volumes.

Segment Profit $ 148 $ 193 $ (45) (23%) 
 
Financial Products' segment revenues were $763 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease 
of $110 million, or 13%, from the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily because of 
lower average financing rates and lower average earning assets across all regions. 
 
Financial Products' segment profit was $148 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with 
$193 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was due to lower net yield on average 
earning assets, lower average earning assets and higher provision for credit losses at Cat 
Financial. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by a reduction in SG&A expenses 
primarily due to lower short-term incentive compensation and employee benefit expenses and a 
favorable impact from equity securities in Insurance Services. 
 
At the end of the second quarter of 2020, past dues at Cat Financial were 3.74%, compared with 
3.38% at the end of the second quarter of 2019. Past dues increased primarily due to the impact of 
the COVID-19 pandemic. Write-offs, net of recoveries, were $30 million for the second quarter of 
2020, compared with $74 million for the second quarter of 2019. As of June 30, 2020, Cat 
Financial's allowance for credit losses totaled $515 million, or 1.92% of finance receivables, 
compared with $457 million, or 1.69% of finance receivables at March 31, 2020. The increase in 
allowance for credit losses was driven in part by expectations of the lingering impact from 
COVID-19. The allowance for credit losses at year-end 2019 was $424 million, or 1.50% of finance 
receivables. 
 
Corporate Items and Eliminations 
 
Expense for corporate items and eliminations was $580 million in the second quarter of 2020, an 
increase of $89 million from the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to an unfavorable change in 
fair value adjustments related to deferred compensation plans and segment reporting methodology 
differences.

APPENDIX 
 
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES 
 
The following definitions are provided for the non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP 
financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.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. 
 
Adjusted Profit Per Share 
 
The company believes it is important to separately quantify the profit impact of a significant 
item in order for the company's results to be meaningful to readers. This item is remeasurement 
losses resulting from the settlements of pension obligations in the second quarter of 2020. The 
company does not consider this item indicative of earnings from ongoing business activities and 
believes the non-GAAP measure provides investors with useful perspective on underlying business 
results and trends and aids with assessing the company's period-over-period results. The company 
intends to discuss adjusted profit per share for the fourth quarter and full-year 2020, excluding 
mark-to-market gains or losses for remeasurement of pension and other postemployment benefit plans 
along with any other discrete items. 
 
Reconciliations of adjusted profit per share to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, diluted 
profit per share, are as follows:

Note: On March 26, 2020, the company withdrew its previous financial outlook due to the continued 
global economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic. 
 
Machinery, Energy & Transportation 
 
Caterpillar defines Machinery, Energy & Transportation as it is presented in the supplemental data 
as Caterpillar Inc. and its subsidiaries with Financial Products accounted for on the equity 
basis. Machinery, Energy & Transportation information relates to the design, manufacture and 
marketing of Caterpillar products. Financial Products' information relates to the financing to 
customers and dealers for the purchase and lease of Caterpillar and other equipment. The nature of 
these businesses is different, especially with regard to the financial position and cash flow 
items. Caterpillar management utilizes this presentation internally to highlight these 
differences. The company also believes this presentation will assist readers in understanding 
Caterpillar's business. Pages 13-23 reconcile Machinery, Energy & Transportation with Financial 
Products on the equity basis to Caterpillar Inc. consolidated financial information.
