Note 2. Basis of Presentation, Summary of Material Accounting Policies and Critical Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions
Statement of Compliance -The interim condensed consolidated financial statements ('interim financial statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the IASB, have been omitted or condensed. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with GlobalFoundries' Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023. The interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements.
The interim financial statements are unaudited and reflect adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods in accordance with IAS 34 as issued by the IASB.
The interim financial statements were authorized by the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee of GlobalFoundries' Board of Directors on November 4, 2024, to be issued and subsequent events have been evaluated for their potential effect on the interim financial statements through November 5, 2024.
Summary of Material Accounting Policies and Critical Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions -The summary of material accounting policies and critical judgments, estimates and assumptions adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Change in Presentation -Certain prior period balances in the interim financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. This change is not a change in accounting policy. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income, cash flows or shareholders' equity previously reported.
New and Amended Accounting Pronouncements Adopted - On January 1, 2024, the Company adopted the following amendments, which did not have a material impact on the interim financial statements:
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1Presentation of Financial Statements) - The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period, including compliance with loan covenants before or at the reporting date. The amendments also require disclosures for liabilities subject to future covenants that an entity must comply with after the reporting period, which help users to understand the risk that those liabilities could become repayable within twelve months after the reporting period.
Lease Liability in a Sales and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases) - The amendments specify the requirements that the seller-lessee must meet when measuring these lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction, to ensure that the seller-lessee does not recognize any amount of profit or loss that relates to the right of use that it retains.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Adopted:
The Company has not adopted the following new, revised or amended IFRS standards that have been issued by the IASB that are not yet effective:
Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures) -The amendments clarify the requirements for the timing of recognition and derecognition of certain financial assets and liabilities, add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion and add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows. The effective date for adoption of these amendments is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026.
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements("IFRS 18") - This new standard will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements.The key concepts in IFRS 18 relate to the structure of the statement of profit or loss, required disclosures in the financial statements for certain management-defined performance measures and enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.
IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals. Entities are required to classify all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss into one of five categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations, whereof the first three are new.
IFRS 18 also requires disclosure of newly defined management-defined performance measures, subtotals of income and expenses, and includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified 'roles' of the primary financial statements and the notes to the financial statements.
In addition, narrow-scope amendments have been made to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows,which include changing the starting point for determining cash flows from operations under the indirect method, from 'profit or loss' to 'operating profit or loss' and removing the optionality around classification of cash flows from dividends and interest. In addition, there are consequential amendments to several other standards.
The effective date for adoption of this standard is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and earlier adoption is permitted. Retrospective application is required.
Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11 - These narrow-scope amendments relate to clarifications, simplifications, corrections or changes to improve consistency in the following IFRS statements: IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Instrumentsand IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows. The effective date for adoption of these amendments is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026.
As of the date the accompanying financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company continues to evaluate the impact of the aforementioned standards on its financial position and performance and related applicable periods.

Note 4. Income taxes
For tax reporting purposes, the Company consolidates its entities under GlobalFoundries Inc., a Cayman Islands entity. As a Cayman Islands entity, the Company's domestic statutory income tax rate is 0.0%. The difference between the Company's domestic statutory income tax rate and its effective income tax rate reflected in income tax benefit or income tax expense is primarily due to the effect of tax rates and permanent differences in other jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was 8.7% and (2.5)%, respectively. The increase was primarily the result of a U.S. withholding tax reclassification from income tax in the third quarter 2023 and higher income tax expense related to the U.S. corporate alternative minimum tax.
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was 9.7% and 5.7%, respectively. The increase was primarily the result of higher income tax expense related to the U.S. corporate alternative minimum tax.

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments- The Company enters into several purchase agreements and supplementary agreements with its third-party manufacturers and suppliers for future deliveries of equipment and components. In addition, the Company enters into intellectual property and licensing agreements with third parties. The total future payments under these agreements amounted to $591 million and $1.1 billion, as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Unconditional purchase commitments of $368 million are due within the next 12 months.
Additionally, the Company obtained letters of credit to primarily guarantee payments for utility suppliers and foreign statutory payroll related charges. The Company has obtained letters of credit of $30 million and $23 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and has drawn down bank guarantees of $4 million and $54 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Contingencies- From time to time, the Company is a party to claims that arise in the normal course of business. These claims include allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights of others as well as other claims of liability. In addition, the Company, on a case by case basis, includes intellectual property indemnification provisions in the terms of sale and technology licenses with third parties. The Company is also subject to various taxes in the different jurisdictions in which it operates. These include property, goods and services, and other non-income taxes. The Company accrues costs associated with these matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not believe it is probable that losses associated with these matters beyond those already recognized will be incurred in amounts that would be material to the interim financial statements.
On April 28, 2021, IBM sent the Company a letter alleging for the first time that it did not fulfill its obligations under the contracts entered into with IBM in 2014 and 2015 associated with the acquisition of IBM's Microelectronics division. IBM asserted that the Company engaged in fraudulent misrepresentations during the underlying negotiations, and claimed the Company owed them $2.5 billionin damages and restitution. On June 7, 2021, the Company filed a complaint with the New York State Supreme Court (the "Court") seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company did not breach the relevant contracts. IBM subsequently filed its complaint with the Court on June 8, 2021. On September 14, 2021, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss IBM's claims of fraud, unjust enrichment and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. IBM appealed the dismissal of its fraud claim, and on April 7, 2022, the New York Appellate Division reversed the Court's decision. Discovery and dispositive motion practice have been completed and the trial is scheduled to commence on February 3, 2025. The Company believes, based on discussions with legal counsel, that it has meritorious defenses against IBM's claims and intends to vigorously defend against them.

Note 14. Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring management judgment to develop the Company's own models with estimates and assumptions.
Cash Equivalents- Cash equivalents include investments in government obligation-based money market funds, other money market instruments and interest-bearing deposits with initial or remaining terms of three months or less. The fair value of cash equivalents approximates its carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Marketable Securities- Marketable securities utilizing Level 1 and Level 2 inputs include U.S. Treasury Securities, U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises, floating rate securities, money market mutual funds, corporate debt instruments and other Notes, bonds or debt securities issued by non-U.S. sovereign or multilateral entities, as these securities all have quoted prices in active markets.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include grants receivable, loans receivable, lease obligations and the Company's current and non-current portion of long-term debt.
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the following table:

Other long-term debt 2,313 2,256 2,372 2,319
Total $ 2,313 $ 2,256 $ 2,372 $ 2,319
Estimated fair values of long-term debt are based on quoted prices for similar liabilities for which significant inputs are observable and represent a Level 2 valuation. The fair values are estimated based on the type of debt and their maturities. The Company estimates the fair value using market interest rates of debts with similar maturities.
Note 15. Share-Based Compensation
We measure and recognize compensation expense related to share-based transactions, including employee, consultant, and non-employee director share option awards, in our consolidated financial statements based on fair value. The fair value of each award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for options, and the Monte Carlo simulation model for the performance share units and a share price at the grant date for the restricted share units. The Black-Scholes model and Monte Carlo model both require management to make certain assumptions of future expectations based on historical and current data. The assumptions include the expected term of the awards, expected volatility, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate. The expected term represents the amount of time that awards granted are expected to be outstanding, based on forecasted exercise behavior. The option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the estimated fair value of the Company's stock, expected term of the awards, expected volatility of the price of the Company's shares, risk free interest rate and the expected dividend yield of ordinary shares. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the option awards represent management's best estimates. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. The Company estimates the expected forfeiture for options utilizing historical data, and only recognizes expense when a defined liquidity event (change in control or IPO) is deemed probable on the number of awards that are expected to vest. After applying a forfeiture estimate during each reporting period for when they are probable of vesting, the Company recognizes expense on a graded attribution basis for each tranche of the award over the period from the grant date to the later of the one-year anniversary of estimated time following a liquidity event or the legal vesting dates.
The Company offers an Employee Stock Purchase Plan which provides eligible employees with an opportunity to purchase our ordinary shares through payroll deductions of up to 10% of their eligible compensation. A participant may purchase a maximum of 2,500 ordinary shares during the purchase period. Amounts deducted and accumulated by the participant are used to purchase ordinary shares at the end of each six-month period, with the Company matching 20% of each employee's contributions on an after-tax basis.
