Question: Does P&G have off-balance sheet financing?

There are situations, however, where the company enters into normal operating leases and other similar structures for which debt is not required to be reflected on the balance sheet under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Leases for office equipment would be an example.
