$11.7 billion , down 19.1%, in 2024 - Full year reported operating margin of (1.0)% and adjusted operating margin(1) of 8.9%
- 2024 full year reported earnings per share of
$(5.69) and adjusted earnings per share(1) of$7.50 - Reaffirms 2025 Outlook – Net sales of approximately
$9.6 billion and earnings per share of$4.00 -$4.50

"AGCO delivered strong fourth quarter results with an adjusted operating margin of 9.9%, even with challenging market dynamics and aggressive production cuts," said
Hansotia continued, "In 2025, we will continue to execute our Farmer-First strategy strengthened by the portfolio moves and aggressive cost control actions, including our ongoing restructuring program. We expect these efforts to dampen the impact of further weakening industry demand, helping deliver adjusted operating margins well above levels achieved during prior industry troughs. We will continue our investments in premium technology, smart farming solutions and enhanced digital capabilities to support our Farmer-First strategy to better position the company for success when the industry recovers while helping to sustainably feed the world."

Hansotia concluded, "Global agricultural markets face both challenges and opportunities.
North American industry retail tractor sales decreased 13% during 2024 compared to the previous year. Sales declines were relatively consistent across the horsepower categories with higher horsepower categories declining more in recent months. Combine unit sales were down 22% in 2024 compared to 2023. Lower projected farm income and a refreshed fleet is expected to pressure industry demand in 2025, resulting in weaker North American industry sales compared to 2024, particularly in larger equipment.

(7) Note: The regional net sales for the three months ended |
North American net sales decreased 24.7% for the full year of 2024 compared to 2023, excluding the impact of unfavorable currency translation and favorable impact of an acquisition. Softer industry sales and lower end-market demand contributed to lower sales. The most significant sales declines occurred in the high-horsepower and mid-range tractor categories, as well as hay tools. Income from operations for the full year of 2024 decreased
Net sales in AGCO's South American region decreased 38.6% for the full year of 2024 compared to 2023, excluding the impact of unfavorable currency translation and favorable impact of an acquisition. Softer industry retail sales and under-production of retail demand drove most of the decrease. Lower sales of high-horsepower tractors, combines and planters accounted for most of the decline. Income from operations for the full year of 2024 decreased by

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, 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 United States government has recently indicated that it intends to impose tariffs on goods imported from foreign countries, includingChina ,Mexico andCanada and that additional tariffs may be imposed on imports from other countries in the future. There is substantial uncertainty surrounding these tariffs and the consequences that may arise from the imposition of tariffs on imports from, and exports to, these other countries. These risks may delay or reduce our realization of value from our international operations. - We cannot predict or control the impact of the conflict in
Ukraine on our business. Already it has resulted in reduced sales inUkraine 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, throughoutEurope , which could negatively impact our production inEurope 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 withRabobank , which are controlled byRabobank and are dependent uponRabobank 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 byRabobank to continue to provide that financing, or any business decision byRabobank 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.
- Attacks through ransomware and other means are rapidly increasing, and in
May 2022 we learned that we had been subject to a cyberattack. 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. - 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.

Operating margin is defined as the ratio of income (loss) from operations divided by net sales. Adjusted operating margin is defined as the ratio of adjusted income from operations divided by net sales. |
The Company does not provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure because it is difficult to reliably predict or estimate the relevant components without unreasonable effort due to future uncertainties that may potentially have a significant impact on such calculations and providing them may imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or potentially misleading.
