We incurred $1.8 billion of losses in 2025 related to changes in fair value of the Escrowed Shares released during the year ended December 27, 2025 and still held as of December 27, 2025 (refer to "Note 5: Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Stockholders' Equity" within Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Our Ireland SCIP agreement with Apollo contains construction-related liquidated damage provisions that meet the definition of an embedded derivative that is not clearly and closely related to the relevant host contract, thus requiring bifurcation and separate accounting as a derivative liability.In 2024, we assessed the probability of paying damages to Apollo and recognized a loss of $755 million within interest and other, net from the change in fair value of the liquidated damage provisions recognized within other accrued liabilities for $179 million and other long-term liabilities for $576 million as of December 27, 2025 ($755 million in other long-term liabilities as of December 28, 2024). We periodically reassess the probability of paying such liquidated damages and recognize changes in the fair value of the underlying liability through interest and other, net.
