IBM restructured its risk disclosures by introducing six new categorical risk sections in the 2024 10-K, moving from an undisclosed organizational structure to a clearly delineated framework covering business operations, cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, financing activities, the Kyndryl spin-off, and securities ownership. No previously disclosed risks were removed, indicating IBM maintained its existing risk coverage while expanding transparency through enhanced categorization. The addition of dedicated sections for cybersecurity/data privacy and Kyndryl-related risks reflects IBM's focus on these material areas following the 2021 spin-off completion and the intensifying threat landscape.
Classification is based on semantic text similarity scoring and may include approximations. “No match” means no high-confidence textual match was found — not necessarily that a section was removed.
