DULUTH, GA - October 31 - AGCO (NYSE: AGCO), a global leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of agricultural machinery and precision ag technology, reported net sales of $2.5 billion for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of 4.7% compared to the third quarter of 2024. The third quarter of 2024 included other revenue of $251.2 million which represents revenue from the Company’s divestiture of the majority of its Grain & Protein business as shown in the regional net sales table. Reported net income was $4.09 per share for the quarter and adjusted net incomewas $1.35 per share. These results compare to reported net income of $0.40 per share and adjusted net incomeof $0.68 per share for the third quarter of 2024. Excluding favorable foreign currency translation of 3.7%, net sales in the quarter decreased 8.4% compared to the third quarter of 2024.
“AGCO delivered another solid quarter of navigating a complex global landscape shaped by challenging farm economics, high interest rates, and cautious capital investment,” said Eric Hansotia, AGCO’s Chairman, President and CEO. “Our continued investments in precision agriculture, autonomous solutions and sustainable technologies helped maintain demand for our premium brands. At the same time, we have responded decisively with disciplined production cuts, aggressive cost management, and accelerated strategic restructuring initiatives.”
Hansotia continued, “While political shifts and global trade tensions weighed on farmer sentiment especially in North America, AGCO’s diversified global footprint and Farmer-First strategy helped mitigate regional disruptions. Our strong earnings and improved cash flow generation reflect the structural changes we have made. We remain focused on improving productivity for farmers, driving growth across our portfolio and delivering value for our shareholders which has been enhanced with the previously announced $1 billion share repurchase program, expected to commence this quarter.”
Net sales for the first nine months of 2025 were approximately $7.2 billion, a decrease of 18.4% compared to the same period in 2024. The first nine months of 2024 included other revenue of $741.8 million which represents revenue from the Company’s divestiture of the majority of its Grain & Protein business as shown in the regional net sales table. For the first nine months of 2025, reported net income was $8.45 per share and adjusted net incomewas $3.11 per share. These results compare to reported net loss of $(2.27) per share and adjusted net incomeof $5.53 per share for the same period in 2024. Excluding favorable foreign currency translation of 1.0%, net sales in the first nine months of 2025 decreased 19.4% compared to the same period in 2024.

Based on Company estimates.
Hansotia concluded, “Near-record global crop production in 2025 has increased inventories and pressured commodity prices. While elevated government payments in North America are supporting farm income, crop margins remain constrained. These economic challenges have weakened demand for farm equipment in North America and Europe. Still, farmers continue to invest in precision technologies to boost productivity and profitability. In Brazil, sentiment is improving largely due to record soybean yields, though rising input costs, recent trade tensions, high interest rates and political uncertainty are dampening purchasing activity. In Europe, confidence varies by region, with Western farmers benefiting from favorable yields, while Southern and Eastern areas have been impacted by adverse weather. Dairy and livestock producers have benefited from strong prices and steady demand. While traditional equipment sales remain under pressure, we see a clear transition toward smarter, more efficient solutions as farmers seek to protect margins and manage ongoing volatility.”
North American industry retail tractor sales declined 10% in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 with the steepest drops occurring in higher horsepower categories - particularly in recent months. Combine unit sales fell 29% year-over-year during the same period. Ongoing uncertainty around grain export demand and elevated input costs are expected to continue weighing on industry demand throughout 2025, especially for larger equipment.
Brazil industry retail tractor sales rose 3% in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, driven primarily by demand for smaller and mid-size tractors coupled with favorable trade dynamics. Despite record soybean harvests and potential trade benefits, demand for larger equipment has yet to show meaningful improvement. High financing costs and political uncertainty are expected to continue to constrain demand in 2025.
Western Europe industry retail tractor sales declined 8% during the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 with double digit percentage decreases across most markets except Spain, which saw strong growth. Demand is expected to remain soft throughout the remainder of the year, as lower income levels weigh on arable farmers. However, steady demand from dairy and livestock producers is expected to partially offset the overall decline.

“Other” represents the results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 for the majority of the Company’s Grain & Protein (“G&P”) business which was divested on November 1, 2024. The results of the G&P business through the date of the divestiture were previously included within our North America, South America, Europe/Middle East and Asia/Pacific/Africa segments.
North America
Net sales in the North American region decreased 32.1% during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024, excluding the impact of unfavorable currency translation. Softer industry sales and under-production of end-market demand contributed to lower sales. The most significant sales declines occurred in high-horsepower tractors, sprayers and combines. Income from operations for the third quarter of 2025 decreased $56.4 million compared to the same period in 2024 and operating margins remained negative. The decrease was primarily a result of lower sales and production volumes.
South America
South American net sales decreased 9.5% during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024, excluding the impact of favorable currency translation. Weaker industry demand drove most of the decrease with lower sales across the majority of the product categories. Income from operations for the third quarter of 2025 decreased $22.6 million compared to the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily a result of lower sales and production levels and the impact of modestly negative pricing.
Europe/Middle East
Net sales in the Europe/Middle East region increased 20.3% during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024, excluding the impact of favorable currency translation. This reflects a recovery in production levels and corresponding sales following extended plant downtime last year. Increases were largest in high-horsepower and mid-range tractors. Income from operations increased $163.1 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily a result of significantly higher sales and production volumes.
Asia/Pacific/Africa
Asia/Pacific/Africa region net sales decreased 5.2%, excluding unfavorable currency translation impacts, during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024 due to weaker end market demand and lower production volumes. Lower sales across most of the Asian markets were partially offset by higher sales in Australia and Africa. Income from operations increased $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to lower manufacturing costs, partially offset by lower sales volume.
Outlook
AGCO expects full-year 2025 net sales of approximately $9.8 billion. Adjusted operating margins are projected to be approximately 7.5%. Lower production volumes are expected to be partially offset by cost controls and stable engineering expenses. Based on these assumptions, full-year earnings per share are targeted at approximately $5.00. These estimates incorporate the expected impact of tariffs in effect as of October 31, 2025, along with AGCO’s mitigation strategies. Any changes to tariff policies or related responses could affect these projections.
AGCO will host a conference call with respect to this earnings announcement at 10 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, October 31. The Company will refer to slides on its conference call. Interested persons can access the conference call and slide presentation via AGCO’s website at www.agcocorp.com under the “Investors” Section. A replay of the conference call will be available approximately two hours after the conclusion of the conference call for 12 months following the call. A copy of this press release will be available on AGCO’s website for at least 12 months following the call.
Safe Harbor Statement
Statements that are not historical facts, including the projections of earnings per share, production levels, sales, industry demand, market conditions, commodity prices, currency translation, farm income levels, margin levels, strategy, investments in product and technology development, new product introductions, restructuring and other cost reduction initiatives, production volumes, tax rates and general economic conditions, are forward-looking and subject to risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the statements. The following are among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements.
- Our financial results depend entirely upon the agricultural industry, and factors that adversely affect the agricultural industry generally, including declines in the general economy, adverse weather, tariffs, increases in farm input costs, lower commodity prices, lower farm income and changes in the availability of credit for our retail customers, will adversely affect us.
- We maintain an independent dealer and distribution network in the markets where we sell products. The financial and operational capabilities of our dealers and distributors are critical to our ability to compete in these markets. Higher inventory levels at our dealers and high utilization of dealer credit limits as well as the financial health of our dealers could negatively impact future sales and adversely impact our performance.
- On April 1, 2024, we completed the acquisition of the ag assets and technologies of Trimble through the formation of a joint venture, PTx Trimble, of which we own 85%. Financing the PTx Trimble transaction significantly increased our indebtedness and interest expense. We also have made various assumptions relating to the acquisition that may not prove to be correct, and we may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. All acquisitions involve risk, and there is no certainty that the acquired business will operate as expected. Each of these items, as well as similar acquisition-related items, would adversely impact our performance.
- A majority of our sales and manufacturing takes place outside the United States, and many of our sales involve products that are manufactured in one country and sold in a different country. As a result, we are exposed to risks related to foreign laws, taxes and tariffs, trade restrictions, economic conditions, labor supply and relations, political conditions and governmental policies. The recent announcements of significant trade policy and tariff actions by the U.S. government, including but not limited to tariffs on imported steel and aluminum products, tariffs on certain imports from China, tariffs on certain imports from Canada and Mexico, announced trade deal between the United States and European Union of baseline tariffs on certain imports from the European Union, and baseline tariffs on most imports from most other countries, continue to create significant uncertainty and potential risks for our business. These announcements in some cases were followed by delays and changes in implementation, and the ultimate tariff structures are unclear at the current time. Depending on the countries affected, increases in tariffs have raised the costs of inputs used in manufacturing our products, which in turn has impacted our cost of goods sold. Additionally, higher tariffs may lead to increased after-tariff sales prices for the products we sell. The impacts of the tariffs may be partially mitigated as a majority of our sales and manufacturing takes place outside the United States. While we are actively exploring opportunities to mitigate these increased costs, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to fully offset the impact of these tariffs. Furthermore, the imposition of retaliatory tariffs from other countries on our exported products could negatively affect our sales and marketplace access in those countries. Moreover, the uncertainty of the tariff changes and any future trade policy changes has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to adversely impact, our sales.
- We cannot predict or control the impact of the conflict in Ukraine on our business. Already it has resulted in reduced sales in Ukraine as farmers have experienced economic distress, difficulties in harvesting and delivering their products, as well as general uncertainty. There is a potential for natural gas shortages, as well as shortages in other energy sources, throughout Europe, which could negatively impact our production in Europe both directly and through interrupting the supply of parts and components that we
use. It is unclear how long these conditions will continue, or whether they will worsen, and what the ultimate impact on our performance will be. In addition, AGCO sells products in, and purchases parts and components from, other regions where there could be hostilities. Any hostilities likely would adversely impact our performance.
- Most retail sales of the products that we manufacture are financed, either by our joint ventures with Rabobank or by a bank or other private lender. Our joint ventures with Rabobank, which are controlled by Rabobank and are dependent upon Rabobank for financing as well, finance approximately 50% of the retail sales of our tractors and combines in the markets where the joint ventures operate. Any difficulty by Rabobank to continue to provide that financing, or any business decision by Rabobank as the controlling member not to fund the business or particular aspects of it (for example, a particular country or region), would require the joint ventures to find other sources of financing (which may be difficult to obtain), or us to find another source of retail financing for our customers, or our customers would be required to utilize other retail financing providers. As a result of the recent economic downturn, financing for capital equipment purchases generally has become more difficult in certain regions and in some cases, can be expensive to obtain. To the extent that financing is not available or available only at unattractive prices, our sales would be negatively impacted. In addition, Rabobank also is the lead lender in our revolving credit facility and term loans and for many years has been an important financing partner for us. Any interruption or other challenges in that relationship would require us to obtain alternative financing, which could be difficult.
- Both AGCO and our finance joint ventures have substantial accounts receivable from dealers and end customers, and we would be adversely impacted if the collectability of these receivables was less than optimal; this collectability is dependent upon the financial strength of the farm industry, which in turn is dependent upon the general economy and commodity prices, as well as several of the other factors listed in this section.
- We have experienced substantial and sustained volatility with respect to currency exchange rate and interest rate changes, which can adversely affect our reported results of operations and the competitiveness of our products.
- Our success depends on the introduction of new products, particularly engines that comply with emission requirements and sustainable smart farming technology, which require substantial expenditures; there is no certainty that we can develop the necessary technology or that the technology that we develop will be attractive to farmers or available at competitive prices.
- Our expansion plans in emerging markets, including establishing a greater manufacturing and marketing presence and growing our use of component suppliers, could entail significant risks.
- Our business increasingly is subject to regulations relating to privacy and data protection, and if we violate any of those regulations, or otherwise are the victim of a cyberattack, we could be subject to significant claims, penalties and damages.
- Cybersecurity breaches including ransomware attacks and other means are rapidly increasing. We continue to review and improve our safeguards to minimize our exposure to future attacks. However, there always will be the potential of the risk that a cyberattack will be successful and will disrupt our business, either through shutting down our operations, destroying data, exfiltrating data or otherwise.
- We depend on suppliers for components, parts and raw materials for our products, and any failure by our suppliers to provide products as needed, or by us to promptly address supplier issues, will adversely impact our ability to timely and efficiently manufacture and sell products. In addition, the potential of future natural gas shortages in Europe, as well as predicted overall shortages in other energy sources, could also negatively impact our production and that of our supply chain in the future. There can be no assurance that there will not be future disruptions.
- Any future pandemics could negatively impact our business through reduced sales, facilities closures, higher absentee rates and reduced production at both our plants and the plants that supply us with parts and components. In addition, logistical and transportation-related issues and similar problems may also arise.
- We recently have experienced significant inflation in a range of costs, including for parts and components, shipping and energy. While we have been able to pass along most of those costs through increased prices, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so. If we are not, it will adversely impact our performance.
- We face significant competition, and if we are unable to compete successfully against other agricultural equipment manufacturers, we would lose customers and our net sales and performance would decline.
- We have a substantial amount of indebtedness (and have incurred additional indebtedness as part of the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction), and, as a result, we are subject to certain restrictive covenants and payment obligations, as well as increased leverage generally, that may adversely affect our ability to operate and expand our business.

4. RESTRUCTURING AND BUSINESS OPTIMIZATION EXPENSES
On June 24, 2024, the Company announced a restructuring program (the “Program”) in response to increased weakening demand in the agriculture industry. The Company estimates that it will incur charges for one-time termination benefits of approximately $150.0 million to $200.0 million in connection with the initial phase of the Program, primarily consisting of cash charges related to severance payments, employees benefits and related costs. The Company incurred the majority of the charges in 2024 and expects to incur the remaining charges in 2025.
As of December 31, 2024, accrued severance and other related costs primarily associated with the Program were approximately $136.2 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded $4.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively, of severance and other related costs, net of reversals, primarily associated with the Program, and paid approximately $30.8 million and $100.5 million, respectively, of severance costs. The $53.3 million of accrued severance and other related costs as of September 30, 2025, inclusive of approximately $11.7 million of foreign currency translation impacts, are expected to be paid primarily during the next 12 months.
Business optimization expenses primarily relate to professional services costs incurred as part of the restructuring program aimed at reducing structural costs, enhancing global efficiencies by changing the Company’s operating model for certain corporate and back-office functions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized approximately $4.5 million and $31.4 million, respectively, of business optimization expenses.
5. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company has four operating segments which are also its reportable segments which consist of the North America, South America, Europe/Middle East and Asia/Pacific/Africa regions. The Company’s reportable segments are geography based and distribute a full range of agricultural machinery and precision agriculture technology. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), Eric P. Hansotia, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates segment performance primarily based on income from operations. The CODM utilizes income from operations to evaluate each segment’s performance including the allocation of resources. Sales for each segment are based on the location of the third-party customer. The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses and engineering expenses are generally charged to each segment based on the region and division where the expenses are incurred. As a result, the components of income (loss) from operations for one segment may not be comparable to another segment. Segment results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 based on the Company’s reportable segments are as follows (in millions):
