As of December 31,see in full comparison2024,2025, we had approximately$1,820.4$1,898.8 million of goodwill reflected on our consolidated balance sheet. As discussed in Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,"” we test goodwill for impairment annually or more often under certain circumstances. Goodwill can be difficult to value, and in all events valuation requires the use of estimates and judgment as discussed in"“Critical Accounting Estimates"” in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. Our goodwill was created in connection with business acquisitions. If those businesses do not perform as expected, future valuations may not support the amount of goodwill, and we could conclude that an impairment has occurred. Similarly, if the estimates and judgment used in our annual impairment tests prove to be incorrect, impairment could be required. An impairment of goodwill could be significant and could materially impact our results of operations.In connection with the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction, we recognized $1,592.2 million of goodwill as of the acquisition date. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized an impairment charge of $351 million, which resulted from the deterioration of the near-term outlook of the PTx Trimble North America reporting unit driven by weak industry demand and lower market penetration. While our annual impairment testing in 2024 now supports the carrying amount of this goodwill, we may be required to re-evaluate the carrying amount in future periods, thus utilizing different assumptions that reflect the then current market conditions and expectations, and, therefore, we could conclude that an impairment has occurred. Additionally, as the carrying value of the PTx Trimble North America reporting unit approximates its fair value following the impairment charge, the PTx Trimble North America reporting unit is considered at risk of future impairment. If our assumptions are not realized, or if there are future changes in any of the assumptions due to a change in economic conditions or otherwise, it is possible that a further impairment charge may need to be recorded in the future.

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 enforceability of the tariffs, any changes to such tariffs and any future trade policy changes has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to adversely impact, our sales. For more information on the risks surrounding tariffs and trade regulation, see the risk factor titled “Changes to United States tax, tariff, trade and import/export regulations may have a negative effect on global economic conditions, financial markets and our business.”
The U.S. government has recently announced tariffs on all imported steel and aluminum. The U.S. government has also recently indicated that it intends to impose tariffs on goods imported from foreign countries, including China, Mexico and Canada. In addition, the U.S. government has also indicated that additional tariffs may be imposed on imports from other countries in the future. There is substantial uncertainty surrounding these tariffs, including any retaliatory tariffs and other consequences that may arise from the imposition of tariffs on imports from, and exports to, these other countries. These risks may delay, adversely impact or reduce our realization of value from our international operations. For more information on the risks surrounding tariffs and trade regulation, see the risk factor titled “Changes to United States tax, tariff, trade and import/export regulations may have a negative effect on global economic conditions, financial markets and our business”.
In 20242025 and 2023,2024, we had net sales of approximately $90$114 million and $85$90 million, respectively, in Ukraine. As of December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, we had less than $15 million in assets in Ukraine. It is unclear what impact the hostilities in Ukraine going forward will have on our net sales or assets, although we assume that our net sales may continue to decline in Ukraine, possibly significantly.assets. We assess the fair value of our assets in Ukraine for potential impairment on a periodic basis as warranted.
Our long-term strategy includes establishing a greater manufacturing and supply-chain and/or marketing presence in emerging markets such as India and Africa.markets. As we progress with these efforts, it will involve a significant investment of capital and other resources and entail various risks. These include risks attendant to obtaining necessary governmental approvals and the construction of facilities in a timely manner and within cost estimates, the establishment of supply channels, the commencement of efficient manufacturing operations, and, ultimately, the acceptance of the products by retail customers. While we expect the expansion to be successful, should we encounter difficulties involving these or similar factors, it may not be as successful as we anticipate and could adversely impact our performance.
DuringWe 2022have and 2023, wepreviously experienced significant inflation in a range of costs, including for parts and components, labor, transportation, logistics, and energy. While inflation eased over 2023 andhas continued to ease in 2024,2025, and we were able to pass along these higher costs through increased prices, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so in the future. If we are not, it will adversely impact our performance.

•innovation;
Consistent with our strategy of offering new products and product refinements, we expect to make substantial investments in product development and refinement. We may need more funding for product development and refinement than is readily available, which could adversely affect our performance. Our failure to innovate and to develop products that capitalize on new technologies could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The introduction of new technologies involves risk, and, from time to time, we may fail to realize their anticipated benefits.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to identify, adopt and integrate new digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, into our operations, business processes, products and services in a timely, cost-effective, compliant, and responsible manner. Our competitors and other third parties may incorporate artificial intelligence into their operations and processes more quickly or more successfully than us, which could impair our ability to compete effectively. Legislation and regulations governing the development and use of artificial intelligence have been passed or are under consideration in the United States at the state and local level, as well as internationally. As a result, the ability to use artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies may be constrained by current or future laws and regulations. Such regulations may result in significant operational costs to modify, maintain, or align our business practices, or constrain our ability to develop, deploy, or maintain these technologies.
Increasingly our customers are implementing precision farming solutions. In order to remain competitive, we have been able to successfully acquire or develop and introduce new solutions that improve profitability and sustainable farming techniques. Our precision technology products include both hardware and software components that relate to guidance, telemetry, automation, autonomy and connectivity solutions. We expect to make significant investments in research and development expenses, acquisitions of businesses, collaborative arrangements and other sources of technology to drive these outcomes. These investments include the acquisition of the agriculture assets and technologies of Trimble through the formation of a joint venture of which we own 85% as further discussed in the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction risk factor below. Such investments may not produce attractive solutions for our customers. We also may have to depend on third parties to supply certain hardware or software components or data services in our precision technology products. Our dealers' ability to support such solutions also may impact our customers, acceptance of our products and demand of such products.
Our products include components and parts manufactured by others. As a result, our ability to timely and efficiently manufacture current products, to introduce new products, and to shift manufacturing of products from one facility to another depends on the quality of these components and parts and the timeliness of their delivery to our facilities. DuringWe 2022,have wepreviously experienced significant supply chain interruptions, including delays in timely deliveries of components. While supply chain disruptions eased in 2023components, and 2024, there can be no assurance that there will not be future disruptions. 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. At any particular time, we depend on numerous suppliers, and the failure by one or more of our suppliers to perform as needed will result in fewer products being manufactured, shipped and sold. If the quality of the components or parts provided by our suppliers is less than required and we do not recognize that failure prior to the shipment of our products, we will incur higher warranty costs. The timely supply of component parts for our products also depends on our ability to manage our relationships with suppliers, to identify and replace suppliers that fail to meet our schedules or quality standards, and to monitor the flow of components and accurately project our needs. The shift from our existing suppliers to new suppliers, including suppliers in emerging markets, also may impact the quality and efficiency of our manufacturing capabilities, as well as warranty costs.
We closed the acquisition of the agriculture assets and technologies of Trimble through the formation of the PTx Trimble joint venture, of which we own 85%, on April 1, 2024. Joint venture transactions involve many risks, including the challenges attendant to integrating the operations, technologies, services and products of the acquired lines of businesses, reactions by customers to the transaction, particularly the rate at which Trimble’s largest OEM customer reduces purchases of Trimble equipment and the levels of the OEM's product supply remaining in the market, and the rate of replacement by the joint venture of those sales, personnel turnover, and the diversion of management's attention from other business matters. We may be unable to achieve anticipated benefits from the transaction in the time frame that we anticipate, or at all. All of these risks, as well as the others that typically accompany a large transaction, could adversely affect our business or results of operations.
The Company values constructive input from investors and regularly engages in dialogue with its shareholdersstockholders regarding strategy and performance. The Company’s Board of Directors and management team are committed to acting in the best interests of all the Company’s shareholders.stockholders. Stockholders may, from time to time, engage in proxy solicitations or advance stockholder proposals, or otherwise attempt to effect changes and assert influence on our Board of Directors and management. Responding to some of these actions can be costly and time-consuming, may disrupt the Company’s operations and divert the attention of the Board of Directors, management and the Company’s employees. Such activities could interfere with the Company’s ability to execute its strategic plan. Any perceived uncertainties as to our future direction and control, our ability to execute on our strategy, or changes to the composition of our Board of Directors or senior management team arising from a proxy contest could lead to the perception of a change in the direction of our business or instability which may affect the market price and volatility of the Company’s common stock, result in the loss of potential business opportunities, make it more difficult to pursue our strategic initiatives, or limit our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and business partners, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results. We may choose to initiate, or may become subject to, litigation as a result of a proxy contest or matters arising from a proxy contest, which would serve as a further distraction to our board of directors and management and would require us to incur significant additional costs. In addition, actions such as those described above could cause significant fluctuations in our stock price based upon temporary or speculative market perceptions or other factors that do not necessarily reflect the underlying fundamentals and prospects of our business.
We also are subject to the risk of the imposition of limitations by governments on international transfers of funds. In recent years, the Argentine government has substantially limited the ability of companies to transfer funds out of Argentina. As a consequence of these limitations, the spread between the official government exchange rate and the exchange rates resulting implicitly from certain capital market operations, usually effected to obtain United States dollars, has broadened significantly. In December 2023, the central bank of Argentina adjusted the official foreign currency exchange rate for the Argentine peso, significantly devaluing the currency relative to the United States dollar. In December 2023, we recorded losses of approximately $80.4 million related to the devaluation of the Argentine peso and the related impacts to our AGCO financeFinance joint venture in Argentina as included within Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."” Further devaluation of the peso or continuation or expansion of limitations of transfer of funds in Argentina or in other markets in which we operate, would adversely affect our performance. Please refer to the "“Foreign Currency Risk Management"” section within Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” for more information.
We have substantial goodwill, and impairment of that goodwill could materially impact our results of operation.operations.
As of December 31, 2024,2025, we had approximately $1,820.4$1,898.8 million of goodwill reflected on our consolidated balance sheet. As discussed in Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,"” we test goodwill for impairment annually or more often under certain circumstances. Goodwill can be difficult to value, and in all events valuation requires the use of estimates and judgment as discussed in "“Critical Accounting Estimates"” in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. Our goodwill was created in connection with business acquisitions. If those businesses do not perform as expected, future valuations may not support the amount of goodwill, and we could conclude that an impairment has occurred. Similarly, if the estimates and judgment used in our annual impairment tests prove to be incorrect, impairment could be required. An impairment of goodwill could be significant and could materially impact our results of operations. In connection with the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction, we recognized $1,592.2 million of goodwill as of the acquisition date. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized an impairment charge of $351 million, which resulted from the deterioration of the near-term outlook of the PTx Trimble North America reporting unit driven by weak industry demand and lower market penetration. While our annual impairment testing in 2024 now supports the carrying amount of this goodwill, we may be required to re-evaluate the carrying amount in future periods, thus utilizing different assumptions that reflect the then current market conditions and expectations, and, therefore, we could conclude that an impairment has occurred. Additionally, as the carrying value of the PTx Trimble North America reporting unit approximates its fair value following the impairment charge, the PTx Trimble North America reporting unit is considered at risk of future impairment. If our assumptions are not realized, or if there are future changes in any of the assumptions due to a change in economic conditions or otherwise, it is possible that a further impairment charge may need to be recorded in the future.
There have been ongoing discussions and significant changes to United States trade policies, treaties, tariffs and taxes. Although the levels change from period to period, we generally have substantial imports into the United States of products and components that are either produced in our foreign locations or are purchased from foreign suppliers, and also have substantial exports of products and components that we manufacture in the United States. The impact of any changes to current trade, tariff or tax policies relating to imports and exports of goods is dependent on factors such as the treatment of exports as a credit to imports, and the introduction of any tariffs or taxes relating to imports from specific countries. Tariff changes are difficult to predict and may cause us material short-term or long-term cost fluctuations. The new political administration in the United States has signaled an intention to use tariffs more robustly in pursuing government policy and has already implemented some new tariffs. When increases are made to U.S. duty rates or tariffs, reciprocal action by other countries sometimes occurs, and any such increases could impact the price of our products and cause a decline in the demand for our products. We rely on the use of free trade agreements, where available, that may experience alterations, suspensions or cancellations, which could increase our customs expense or otherwise harm our business. In addition to duties and tariffs, any actions taken by the United States or by foreign countries to further implement trade policy changes, including limiting foreign investment or trade, increasing regulatory requirements, or other actions that impact our ability to obtain necessary licenses or approvals could negatively impact our business. These actions are unpredictable, and any of them could also have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, significantly reduce global trade, restrict our access to suppliers or customers, and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
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 enforceability of the tariffs, any changes to such tariffs and any future trade policy changes has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to adversely impact, our sales.

On December 15, 2022, the European Union Member States formally adopted the EU’s Pillar Two Directive, which generally provides forimplements a minimum effective tax rate of 15%, as established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two Framework that was supported by over 130 countries worldwide.Framework. The EuropeanDirective Unionbecame effective dates areon January 1, 2024, and January 1, 2025, for different aspectscomponents of the directive.rules. Based on thecurrently issued guidance and interpretation,the Company's assessment to date, the Company does not expect the legislation to result in a material top-uptop‑up tax.tax for fiscal year 2025. The OECD released a Side‑by‑Side package on January 5, 2026, introducing a safe harbor that allows eligible U.S.-parented multinational groups to elect out of Pillar Two while remaining subject to domestic top‑up taxes. The package becomes applicable for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with additional safe harbors and transitional relief extending into 2027. As this is an evolving area with new guidance and practices being developed, the Company continues to assess the impact of the Pillar Two income taxes legislation on its future financial performance.
Our success is dependent, in part, on our ability to recruit, develop, traindevelop and retaintrain qualified employees with the relevant education, background and experience. Equally weWe must be able to retain such skilled employees through our efforts to develop, train, compensate and engage them. Failure to do so could impair our ability to execute our business strategies and could ultimately impact our performance.
Our business is increasingly is subject to regulations relating to privacy and data protection, and if we violate any of those regulationsregulations, we could be subject to significant claims, penalties and damages.
We rely upon information technology networks and systems, some of which are managed by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes and activities, including supply chain, manufacturing, distribution, invoicing and collection of payments from dealers or other purchasers of our equipment. We also use information technology systems to record, process and summarize financial information and results of operations for internal reporting purposes and to comply with regulatory financial reporting, legal and tax requirements. Additionally, we collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property and proprietary business information, in data centers and on information technology networks. The secure operation of these information technology networks and the processing and maintenance of this information is critical to our business operations and strategy. Despite security measures and business continuity plans, our information technology networks and infrastructure are vulnerable to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to attacks by cyber criminals or breaches due to employee error or malfeasance or other disruptions during the process of upgrading or replacing computer software or hardware, power outages, computer viruses, telecommunication or utility failures, terrorist acts or, natural disasters or other catastrophic events. On May 5, 2022, we discovered that we had been subject to a ransomware cyberattack. The attack resulted in the temporary closure of most of our production sites and parts operations. A majority of the affected locations resumed operations within approximately two weeks after the attack was discovered. There was some data exfiltration as a result of the attack, and a portion of the exfiltrated data subsequently was released publicly. We do not have significant retail operations, and we do not believe that the exfiltrated data included privacy- protected consumer data or that the exfiltration was consequential. We have invested heavily in maturing our information technology and cybersecurity operations and continue to review and improve our safeguards to minimize our exposure to future attacks. The cost of remediation to the impacted systems has not been material. We maintain a cyber liability insurance program, although the coverage may not be sufficient in some circumstances. While we do not believe that the ultimate consequences of the attack were material to our performance, the occurrence of any similar or other events in the future could compromise our networks, and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or regulatory penalties under laws protecting the privacy of personal information, and could disrupt our operations and damage our reputation, which could adversely affect our performance. In addition, as security threats continue to evolve and increase in frequency and sophistication, we increasingly are needingneed to invest additional resources to protect the security of our systems and likely will need to invest even more in the future.

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to net sales of certain items included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations (in millions, except percentages):
2025 Compared to 2024
Net income (loss) attributable to AGCO Corporation for 2025 was $726.5 million, or $9.75 per diluted share, compared to $(424.8) million, or $(5.69) per diluted share, for 2024.
Net sales for 2025 were $10,082.0 million, or 13.5% lower than 2024, primarily due to lower sales volumes resulting from softer industry sales reflecting lower end market demand and the divestiture of the majority of the Company's G&P business on November 1, 2024, partially offset by favorable currency impacts. Income (loss) from operations was $595.7 million in 2025 compared to $(122.1) million in 2024. During 2024, we recorded a loss on sale of business of $507.3 million related to the sale of the majority of the Company's G&P business and impairment charges of $369.5 million primarily related to the impairment of goodwill. Additionally, the increase in income from operations during 2025 was the result of decreases in restructuring and business optimization expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) primarily related to lower compensation costs and transaction costs, partially offset by lower sales and production volumes reflecting weak industry conditions.
We estimate that worldwide average price increases (decreases) were approximately 1.1% and (0.9)% in 2025 and 2024, respectively. Consolidated net sales of tractors and combines, which comprised approximately 68.8% of our net sales in 2025, decreased approximately 6.4% in 2025 compared to 2024. Unit sales of tractors and combines decreased approximately 5.6% during 2025 compared to 2024. The primary driver of the decrease in unit sales was due to changes in end market demand. The difference between the unit sales change and the change in net sales was primarily the result of sales mix changes and foreign currency translation.
Overall, global production hours, excluding hours related to the Company's G&P business which was divested on November 1, 2024, decreased approximately 12.1% during 2025 compared to 2024, reflecting our response to lower end market demand.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased during 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to lower manufacturing costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) as a percentage of net sales, were higher during 2025 compared to 2024 as net sales decreased at a faster rate than SG&A expenses. The absolute level of SG&A expenses decreased during 2025 primarily due to lower compensation costs and lower transaction costs related to the divestiture of the majority of the Company's G&P business and the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction. We recorded stock compensation expense of $27.7 million and $17.9 million during 2025 and 2024, respectively, within SG&A expenses, as is more fully explained in Note 15 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Engineering expenses as a percentage of net sales, were higher during 2025 compared to 2024 as net sales decreased at a faster rate than engineering expenses. The absolute level of engineering expenses remained relatively consistent during 2025.
During 2025, we recorded impairment charges of $10.0 million, primarily related to the impairment of certain other assets. During 2024, we recorded impairment charges of $369.5 million, primarily related to the impairment of goodwill related to the Company’s PTx Trimble North America reporting unit, certain other assets and an investment in affiliate.
We recorded restructuring and business optimization expenses of $82.2 million and $172.7 million during 2025 and 2024, respectively. On June 24, 2024, the Company announced a restructuring program (the “Program”) in response to increased weakening demand in the agriculture industry. The Company estimated that it would 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 a substantial portion of the charges by the end of fiscal year 2025. The restructuring expenses recorded during 2025 and 2024 primarily related to severance, business optimization and other related costs associated with the Company's Program. Refer to Note 13 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
We recorded a loss on sale of business of $10.8 million during 2025 related to the finalization of the preliminary working capital and other adjustments related to the sale of the majority of the Company's G&P business, partially offset by a gain related to an immaterial divestiture. During 2024, we recorded a loss on sale of business of $507.3 million related to the sale of the majority of the Company's G&P business. Refer to Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Interest expense, net was $66.4 million for 2025 compared to $93.0 million for 2024, resulting primarily from a decrease in interest expense resulting from the Company's repayment of the Term Loan Facility on November 1, 2024, partially offset by lower interest income. Refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information on our available funding.
Other expense (income), net was $(72.7) million in 2025 compared to $218.5 million in 2024. During 2025, the Company recorded a gain of $251.9 million on the sale of an investment in affiliate related to the sale of the Company’s ownership interest in Tractors and Farm Equipment Limited (“TAFE”) within “Other expense (income), net.” Refer to Note 18 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. In 2024, the Company terminated its U.S. qualified defined benefit plan and the settlement resulted in the recognition of approximately $18.5 million within “Other expense (income), net” representing the amounts previously recognized in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.” Foreign currency exchange losses were approximately $81.9 million for 2025, compared to $85.1 million for 2024. Losses on sales of receivables, primarily related to our accounts receivable sales agreements with our finance joint ventures in North America, Europe and Brazil and included in “Other expense (income), net,” were approximately $90.3 million and $118.2 million, in 2025 and 2024, respectively. During 2024, the Company recorded the final business interruption insurance recovery related to the 2022 cyber attack of $5.0 million.
We recorded an income tax provision (benefit) of $(77.4) million in 2025 compared to $98.4 million in 2024. Our tax provision and effective tax rate are impacted by the differing tax rates of the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate, permanent differences for items treated differently for financial accounting and income tax purposes, losses in jurisdictions where no income tax benefit is recorded and provisions for unrecognized income tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. Our income tax provision as of December 31, 2025 includes a net federal tax benefit of $179.8 million related to a legal entity reorganization, which excludes approximately $82.0 million of additional benefits related to a change in the Company's permanent reinvestment assertion and state tax benefits associated with the reorganization. Based on a favorable tax ruling in Brazil regarding the taxability of certain state value added tax incentive benefits, the Company recorded a $29.6 million reduction in the provision for income taxes during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Equity in net earnings of affiliates, which is primarily comprised of income from our AGCO Finance joint ventures, was $39.6 million in 2025 compared to $46.4 million in 2024. Refer to Note 10 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $7.5 million in 2025 compared to $60.8 million in 2024. The net loss primarily relates to the noncontrolling interests of the PTx Trimble joint venture held by Trimble, which owns a 15% interest in the joint venture.
The Company has four operating segments which are also its reportable segments which consist of the Europe/Middle East (“EME”), North America, South America and Asia/Pacific/Africa (“APA”) regions. The Company’s reportable segments are geography based and distribute a full range of agricultural machinery and precision agriculture technology. The Company evaluates segment performance primarily based on income from operations. 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 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.
The following table sets forth, for the year ended December 31, 2025, the impact to net sales of currency translation by geographical segment (in millions, except percentages):
(1) “Other” represents the results for the year ended December 31, 2024 for the majority of the Company’s 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, respectively.
Net sales in EME increased in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to favorable foreign currency translation, partially offset by sales volume declines, most significantly in high-horsepower tractors and combines. Income from operations increased by $45.5 million in 2025 compared to 2024 as a result of positive net pricing, partially offset by lower sales and production volumes and higher warranty costs.
Net sales in North America decreased in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to sales volume declines, most significantly in high-horsepower tractors, sprayers, hay tools and combines. Income (loss) from operations decreased by $196.0 million compared to 2024 as a result of lower sales and production volumes.
Net sales decreased in South America in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to sales volume declines, most significantly in tractors and implements, negative pricing impacts and unfavorable foreign currency translation. Income from operations decreased $35.6 million in 2025 compared to 2024, as a result of lower sales and negative pricing impacts, partially offset by lower manufacturing costs.
Net sales decreased in APA in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to sales volume declines, most significantly in high-horsepower tractors, hay tools and sprayers. Income from operations decreased $3.4 million in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to lower sales and production volumes.
Net income (loss) attributable to AGCO Corporation for 2024 was $(424.8) million, or $(5.69) per diluted share, compared to $1,171.4 million, or $15.63 per diluted share, for 2023.
Net sales for 2024 were $11,661.9 million, or 19.1% lower than 2023, primarily due to lower sales volumes resulting from softer industry sales reflecting lower end market demand and unfavorable currency impacts. Income (loss) from operations was $(122.1) million in 2024 compared to $1,700.4 million in 2023. The decrease in income from operations during 2024 was primarily the result of lower sales and production volumes reflecting weak industry conditions, the recognition of the loss on sale of the majority of the Company's G&P business as well as impairment charges and restructuring and business optimization expenses.
We estimate that worldwide average price increases (decreases) were approximately (0.9)% and 10.0% in 2024 and 2023, respectively. Consolidated net sales of tractors and combines, which comprised approximately 63.6% of our net sales in 2024, decreased approximately 20.8% in 2024 compared to 2023. Unit sales of tractors and combines decreased approximately 21.1% during 2024 compared to 2023. The primary driver of the decrease in unit sales was lower sales of compact and mid-range tractors and combines. The difference between the unit sales change and the change in net sales was primarily the result of sales mix changes and foreign currency translation.
Overall, global production hours, excluding hours related to the Company's G&P business which was divested on November 1, 2024, decreased approximately 28.2% during 2024 compared to 2023, reflecting our response to lower end market demand.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased during 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to lower production volumes and unfavorable net pricing impacts.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) as a percentage of net sales, were higher during 2024 compared to 2023 as net sales decreased at a faster rate than SG&A expenses. The absolute level of SG&A expenses decreased during 2024 primarily due to lower compensation costs and decreases in stock compensation expense. We recorded stock compensation expense of $17.9 million and $44.6 million during 2024 and 2023, respectively, within SG&A expenses, as is more fully explained in Note 15 of our Consolidated Financial Statements. These decreases were partially offset by PTx Trimble joint venture transaction-related costs and transaction costs related to the divestiture of the majority of the Company's G&P business.
Engineering expenses as a percentage of net sales, were higher during 2024 compared to 2023 as net sales decreased at a faster rate than engineering expenses. The absolute level of engineering expenses decreased during 2024 primarily due to lower investment partially offset by increased engineering expenses related to the PTx Trimble joint venture.
We recorded impairment charges of $369.5 million and $4.1 million during 2024 and 2023, respectively. During 2024, we recorded impairment charges of $369.5 million primarily related to the impairment of goodwill related to the Company’s PTx Trimble North America reporting unit, other assets and an investment in affiliate. In 2023, we recorded an impairment charge related to the impairment of certain patents and technology amortizing intangible assets from a prior acquisition. Refer to Note 6 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
We recorded restructuring and business optimization expenses of $172.7 million and $11.9 million during 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company is focused on operational efficiencies to build a more resilient business. On June 24, 2024, the Company announced a restructuring program (the “Program”) in response to increased weakening demand in the agriculture industry. The initial phase of the Program is focused on further reducing structural costs, streamlining the Company’s workforce and enhancing global efficiencies related to changing the Company’s operating model for certain corporate and back-office functions and better leveraging technology and global centers of excellence. 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 this phase of the Program, primarily consisting of cash charges related to severance payments, employees benefits and related costs. The Company incurred the majority of charges in 2024 and expects to incur the remaining charges in 2025. The restructuring expenses recorded during 2024 and 2023 primarily related to severance, business optimization and other related costs associated with the Company's Program and rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities and administrative offices. Refer to Note 13 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
We recorded a loss on sale of business of $507.3 million during 2024 related to the sale of the majority of the Company's G&P business. There was no loss recorded during 2023. Refer to Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Interest expense, net was $93.0 million for 2024 compared to $4.6 million for 2023 resulting primarily from an increase in interest expense resulting from the increased debt levels related to financing the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction. Refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information on our available funding.
Other expense, net was $218.5 million in 2024 compared to $362.3 million in 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in foreign currency exchanges losses which were approximately $85.1 million and $202.1 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. In December 2023, the central bank of Argentina adjusted the official foreign currency exchange rate for the Argentine peso from approximately 366.5 to approximately 800.0 pesos to United States dollar for substantially all goods, significantly devaluing the currency relative to the United States dollar. The December 2023 impact of the devaluation and remeasurement of net monetary assets was approximately $79.9 million. In 2024, the Company terminated its U.S. qualified defined benefit plan and the settlement resulted in the recognition of approximately $18.5 million in “Other expense, net” representing the amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Losses on sales of receivables, primarily related to our accounts receivable sales agreements with our finance joint ventures in North America, Europe and Brazil and included in "Other expense, net," were approximately $118.2 million and $148.4 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company recorded business interruption insurance recoveries related to the 2022 cyber attack of $5.0 million and $20.0 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
We recorded an income tax provision of $98.4 million in 2024 compared to $230.4 million in 2023. The decrease is a result of a decrease in our earnings compared to 2023. Our tax provision and effective tax rate are impacted by the differing tax rates of the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate, permanent differences for items treated differently for financial accounting and income tax purposes, losses in jurisdictions where no income tax benefit is recorded, and provisions for unrecognized income tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. Based on a favorable tax ruling in Brazil regarding the taxability of certain state value added tax incentive benefits, the Company recorded a $29.6 million reduction in the provision for income taxes during the year ended December 31, 2024. Our 2023 income tax provision includes a one-time benefit of $112.3 million related to the recognition of a deferred tax asset of $197.7 million, net of a valuation allowance of $85.4 million, related to the finalization of negotiations surrounding the application of Swiss Tax reform legislation enacted in 2020. This benefit was partially offset by a provision of approximately $26.4 million that we recorded in 2023 associated with our enrollment in a Brazilian tax amnesty program. Refer to Note 19 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Equity in net earnings of affiliates, which is primarily comprised of income from our AGCO Finance joint ventures, was $46.4 million in 2024 compared to $68.2 million in 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower earnings in our finance joint ventures. Refer to Note 10 of our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $60.8 million in 2024 compared to $0.1 million in 2023. The net loss primarily relates to the noncontrolling interests of the PTx Trimble joint venture held by Trimble, which owns a 15% interest in the joint venture.
The Company has four operating segments which are also its reportable segments which consist of the Europe/Middle East (“EME”), North America, South America and Asia/Pacific/Africa (“APA”) regions.

The following table sets forth, for the year ended December 31, 2024, the impact to net sales of currency translation by geographical segment (in millions, except percentages):
Net sales in EME decreased in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to sales volume declines, most significantly in mid-range and high-horsepower tractors and hay tools. Income from operations decreased by $174.9 million in 2024 compared to 2023 as a result of lower sales and production volumes, partially offset by decreases in engineering expenses and SG&A expenses primarily related to lower variable compensation expenses and travel costs.
Net sales in North America decreased in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to sales volume declines, most significantly in mid-range and high-horsepower tractors and hay tools. Income from operations decreased by $283.5 million compared to 2023 as a result of lower sales and production volumes.
Net sales decreased in South America in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to sales volume declines, most significantly in tractors, combines and implements and unfavorable foreign currency translation. Income from operations decreased $282.0 million in 2024 compared to 2023 as a result of lower sales and production volumes and negative pricing impacts, partially offset by decreases in SG&A expenses primarily related to lower variable compensation expenses.
Net sales decreased in APA in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to lower sales volumes of high horse power tractors and hay tools and lower sales of grain and protein products. Income from operations decreased $44.6 million in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to lower sales and production volumes.

Our financing requirements are subject to variations due to seasonal changes in inventory and receivable levels. Internally generated funds are supplemented when necessary from external sources, primarily our credit facilities and accounts receivable sales agreement facilities, subject to the discussion below with respect to financing of the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction.facilities. Additional information regarding our indebtedness is contained in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” We believe that the facilities and borrowings listed below, together with available cash and internally generated funds, and assuming customary renewals and replacements, will be sufficient to support our working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future (in millions):
The Company has a credit facility providing for a $1.25 billion multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”) that matures on December 19, 2027. In May 2025, the Company amended the Credit Facility with respect to the net leverage ratio financial covenant requirements for the remainder of 2025 and in the event of a future material acquisition. As of December 31, 2024,2025, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had the ability to borrow $1,249.9$1,250.0 million.
On January 25, 2024, the Company entered into an additional multi-currency Finance Contract with the European Investment Bank (“EIB”) permitting the Company to borrow up to €170.0 million, for which the proceeds will be used in a similar manner as the EIB Senior Term Loan due 2029. On February 15, 2024, the Company borrowed €170.0 million under the arrangement. The loan matures on February 15, 2030. As of December 31, 2024, there was €170.0 million (or approximately $176.4 million) outstanding under the EIB Senior Term Loan due 2030.
On March 21, 2024, the Company issued (i) $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes and (ii)$700.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2034 Notes. The Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $400.0 million and $700.0 million of borrowings under the 2027 Notes and 2034 Notes, respectively.
The PTx Trimble joint venture transaction closed on April 1, 2024. The Company financed the joint venture transaction through a combination of the Senior Notes due 2027 and 2034, the Term Loan Facility and the remainder through other borrowings and cash on hand. The Company had redeemable noncontrolling interests of $300.1$299.2 million as of December 31, 20242025 resulting from the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction, which may require the use of cash in certain instances, beginning in 2027. Refer to Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” for further information.
On November 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the majority of the G&P business and received net proceeds of $630.7 million from the sale. The proceeds from the sale were used to repay the Term Loan Facility and reduce borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Subsequent to December 31, 2024, on January 24, 2025, the Company repaid €250.0 million (or approximately $262.3 million) upon maturity of the EIB Senior term loan due 2025.
The Company is in compliance with the financial covenants contained in these facilities and expects to continue to maintain such compliance. Should we ever encounter difficulties, our historical relationship with our lenders has been strongstrong, and we anticipate their continued long-term support of our business. Refer to Note 12 of the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” for additional information regarding our current facilities, including the financial covenants contained in each debt instrument.
Our debt to capitalization ratio, which is total indebtedness divided by the sum of total indebtedness, excluding short-term borrowings due within one year, and stockholders’ equity, was 35.8% and 40.6% at December 31, 20242025 comparedand to2024, 23.0% at December 31, 2023. The increase largely reflects the indebtedness incurred to pay the purchase price attendant to the PTx Trimble joint venture transaction.respectively.
On March 21, 2024, the Company issued (i) $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.450% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and (ii) $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.800% Senior Notes due 2034 (the “2034 Notes”, and together with the 2027 Notes, the “Notes”). The 2027 Notes and the 2034 Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by AGCO International Holdings B.V., AGCO International GmbH and Massey Ferguson Corp., direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”). Refer to Note 12 of ourthe Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” for further discussion of these debt obligations.

see in full comparisonThe global trade landscape continues to be highly volatile.In 2025, the U.S. government implemented a series of tariffs on goods imported into the United States from various countries, and in many cases these measures resulted in reciprocal tariffs and other actions on goods exported from the United States. These tariffs and related actions arecomplexcomplex, continuously evolving andcontinueremaintohighlyevolvevolatile as trade negotiationsoccur.and legal challenges proceed. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), which the U.S. government had relied on to impose certain tariffs, does not authorize the administration to impose such tariffs. Following that decision, on March 4, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to process refunds of tariffs imposed under IEEPA, and on March 27, 2026, the CIT issued an amended order expanding the scope of entries subject to reliquidation. On April 20, 2026, the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries system opened for the first phase of refund filings. We have submitted certain refund claims under this initial phase; however, these claims remain subject to CBP review, and we cannot predict the timing, amount or ultimate collectability of any refunds to which we may be entitled.

It remains uncertain when, or to what extent, such refunds will ultimately be collected. Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling, the administration has also imposed tariffs under alternative statutoryauthority.authorities, the validity of which is also subject to legal challenge. As a result, the timing and extent of any refunds, the structure and scope of any new tariffs and the overall tariff framework remain uncertain and could create significant risks for our business. Depending on the countries affected, increases in tariffs have raised, and may continue to raise, the costs of inputs used in manufacturing our products, which in turn has impacted, and may further impact, our cost of goods sold. In addition, higher tariffs may lead to increased after‑tariff sales prices for the products we sell. Additionally, the economic uncertainty caused by the tariffs may result in customers delaying planned purchases of products and services. While impacts of the tariffs may be partially mitigated by the fact that a majority of our sales and manufacturing takes place outside the United States, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to fully offset the impact of existing or future tariffs through pricing, sourcing changes or other measures. Furthermore, retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on our exported products could negatively affect our sales and marketplace access in those countries. The economic uncertainty caused by these tariffs and related trade policy developments, together with uncertainty regarding their enforceability, continuation or modification, has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to adversely impact, our sales.

The global trade landscape continues to be highly volatile. In 2025, the U.S. government implemented a series of tariffs on goods imported into the United States from various countries, and in many cases these measures resulted in reciprocal tariffs and other actions on goods exported from the United States. These tariffs and related actions are complexcomplex, continuously evolving and continueremain tohighly evolvevolatile as trade negotiations occur.and legal challenges proceed. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), which the U.S. government had relied on to impose certain tariffs, does not authorize the administration to impose such tariffs. Following that decision, on March 4, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to process refunds of tariffs imposed under IEEPA, and on March 27, 2026, the CIT issued an amended order expanding the scope of entries subject to reliquidation. On April 20, 2026, the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries system opened for the first phase of refund filings. We have submitted certain refund claims under this initial phase; however, these claims remain subject to CBP review, and we cannot predict the timing, amount or ultimate collectability of any refunds to which we may be entitled. The IEEPA tariffs remainrefund process remains subject to ongoingCBP litigation,review, and the administration has announcedappealed plansthe CIT's refund order to implementthe newU.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, contesting both the scope of the refund obligation and the reliquidation of finally liquidated entries for importers who have not filed individual lawsuits. It remains uncertain when, or to what extent, such refunds will ultimately be collected. Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling, the administration has also imposed tariffs under alternative statutory authority.authorities, the validity of which is also subject to legal challenge. As a result, the timing and extent of any refunds, the structure and scope of any new tariffs and the overall tariff framework remain uncertain and could create significant risks for our business. Depending on the countries affected, increases in tariffs have raised, and may continue to raise, the costs of inputs used in manufacturing our products, which in turn has impacted, and may further impact, our cost of goods sold. In addition, higher tariffs may lead to increased after‑tariff sales prices for the products we sell. Additionally, the economic uncertainty caused by the tariffs may result in customers delaying planned purchases of products and services. While impacts of the tariffs may be partially mitigated by the fact that a majority of our sales and manufacturing takes place outside the United States, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to fully offset the impact of existing or future tariffs through pricing, sourcing changes or other measures. Furthermore, retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on our exported products could negatively affect our sales and marketplace access in those countries. The economic uncertainty caused by these tariffs and related trade policy developments, together with uncertainty regarding their enforceability, continuation or modification, has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to adversely impact, our sales.
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. We cannot predict or control the impact of the conflicts in Ukraine or the Middle East on our business. These conflicts have already driven increased volatility across global energy, logistics and input markets, leading to higher fuel, fertilizer, transportation and input costs, as well as general uncertainty for farmers. 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.
The following tabletables setsset forth the percentage relationship to net sales of certain items included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in millions, except percentages):

Net sales during the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were approximately $2,342.9$2,609.7 million, or 14.3%1.0% higherlower than the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025, primarily due to higherlower sales volumes in the North America, Europe/Middle EastEast, Latin America and Asia/Pacific/Africa regions, most significantly in tractors and implements, partially offset by higher sales volumes in the North America region, most significantly in high-horsepower tractors,tractors and hay tools, and favorable currency translation. Income from operations was $80.7$140.7 million for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $49.4$164.0 million in the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. The increasedecrease in income from operations during 2026 was primarily the result of higherlower sales and production volumes, partiallyhigher offsettariff-related by highercosts, selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) and engineering expenses.expenses, partially offset by the benefit of certain IEEPA tariff refunds recognized during the period.
Net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were approximately $4,952.6 million, or 5.7% higher than the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher sales volumes in the North America, Europe/Middle East and Asia/Pacific/Africa regions, most significantly in high-horsepower tractors, and favorable currency translation, partially offset by lower sales volumes in Latin America, most significantly in tractors, implements and combines. Income from operations was $221.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $213.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in income from operations during 2026 was primarily the result of higher sales and production volumes, partially offset by higher tariff-related costs, SG&A expenses and engineering expenses.
We estimate that worldwide average price increases (decreases) were approximately 1.6%2.2% and (0.1)%0.1% for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 1.9% and 0.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Consolidated net sales of tractors and combines, which comprised approximately 67.0%67.7% and 67.4% of our net sales for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, respectively, increased (decreased) approximately 20.3%(1.5)% and 7.7% compared to the same periodperiods in 2025.
Overall, global production hours increased (decreased) approximately 14.9%(1.0)% and 6.2% during the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, respectively, compared to the same periodperiods in 2025, reflecting our response to end market demand.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased during the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to lower production volumes. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to higher manufacturing costs, including increased tariff-related input costs.
SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, were higher during the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 as net sales decreased at a faster rate than SG&A expenses. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, were lower during the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 as net sales increased at a faster rate than SG&A expenses. The absolute level of SG&A expenses increased during the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 primarily due to foreign currency translation. We recorded $10.3$17.1 million and $27.4 million of stock compensation expense within SG&A expenses during the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, respectively, compared to $7.1$10.3 million and $17.4 million during the same periodperiods in 2025.
Engineering expenses, as a percentage of net sales, were consistenthigher during the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to the same periodperiods in 2025 as net sales increasedfluctuated at a similarslower rate asthan engineering expenses. The absolute value of engineering expenses increased during the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 driven by an increase in product innovation and other technology investments.

Our accounts receivable sales agreements in North America, Europe and Brazil permit the sale, on an ongoing basis, of a majority of our receivables to our U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian finance joint ventures. The sales of all receivables are without recourse to us. We do not service the receivables after the sales occur, and we do not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. These agreements are accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions. The cash received from receivables sold under these accounts receivable sales agreements that remain outstanding as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was approximately $1.8 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively.
In addition, we sell certain trade receivables under factoring arrangements to other financial institutions around the world.

In order to efficiently manage our liquidity, we generally pay vendors in accordance with negotiated terms. To enable vendors to obtain payment in advance of our payment due dates to them, we have established programs in certain markets with financial institutions under which the vendors have the option to be paid by the financial institutions earlier than the payment due dates. Should we not be able to negotiate extended payment terms with our vendors, or should financial institutions no longer be willing to participate in early payment programs with us, we would expect to have sufficient liquidity to timely pay our vendors without any material impact on us or our financial position. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the amount outstanding that remains unpaid to the banks or other intermediaries associated with these programs totaled $40.0$41.8 million and $31.7 million, respectively. Refer to Note 6 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Cash flows used in operating activities were approximately $410.4$245.0 million for the first threesix months of 2026 compared to cash flows usedprovided inby operating activities of approximately $212.2$153.5 million for the same period in 2025. Cash used in operating activities during the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was driven by changes in working capital.
Our working capital requirements are seasonal, with investments in working capital typically building in the first half of the year and then reducing in the second half of the year. We had approximately $1,209.9$1,296.5 million in working capital at MarchJune 31,30, 2026 as compared to $1,467.0 million at December 31, 2025. Inventories as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were approximately $3,001.8$3,007.1 million as compared to $2,709.3 million at December 31, 2025. Accounts and notes receivable, net, as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were approximately $162.9$152.7 million higher than at December 31, 2025 primarily due to timing of sales of accounts receivable under our factoring arrangements. Accounts payable and Accrued expenses as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were approximately $101.0$118.8 million lower than at December 31, 2025. Borrowings due within one year increased by approximately $437.8$429.0 million as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, primarily due to the reclassification of the $400.0 million 5.450% Senior notes to current liabilities, as the notes mature on March 21, 2027.
Capital expenditures for the first threesix months of 2026 were approximately $44.6$101.8 million compared to $48.2$90.4 million for the same period in 2025.
On July 9, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock, which has no expiration date. In May 2026, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with a financial institution to repurchase an aggregate of $293.0 million of shares of its common stock.

Global industry demand for farm equipment, driven by farm income, is expected to be relatively flat during 2026 in most major markets compared to 2025. Our net sales are expected to moderatelymodestly increase in 2026 compared to 2025, resulting from positive pricing, favorable currency translation and sales mix. Operating margins will reflect the impact of modestly higher net sales, positive pricing, relatively flat to lower production volumes and continued cost controls, partially offset by tariff headwinds.
The global trade landscape continues to be highly volatile. In 2025, the U.S. government implemented a series of tariffs on goods imported into the United States from various countries, and in many cases these measures resulted in reciprocal tariffs and other actions on goods exported from the United States. These tariffs and related actions are complexcomplex, continuously evolving and continueremain tohighly evolvevolatile as trade negotiations occur.and legal challenges proceed. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), which the U.S. government had relied on to impose certain tariffs, does not authorize the administration to impose such tariffs. Following that decision, on March 4, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to process refunds of tariffs imposed under IEEPA, and on March 27, 2026, the CIT issued an amended order expanding the scope of entries subject to reliquidation. On April 20, 2026, the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries system opened for the first phase of refund filings. We have submitted certain refund claims under this initial phase; however, these claims remain subject to CBP review, and we cannot predict the timing, amount or ultimate collectability of any refunds to which we may be entitled. The IEEPA tariffs remainrefund process remains subject to ongoingCBP litigation,review, and the administration has announcedappealed plansthe CIT's refund order to implementthe newU.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, contesting both the scope of the refund obligation and the reliquidation of finally liquidated entries for importers who have not filed individual lawsuits. It remains uncertain when, or to what extent, such refunds will ultimately be collected. Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling, the administration has also imposed tariffs under alternative statutory authority.authorities, the validity of which is also subject to legal challenge. As a result, the timing and extent of any refunds, the structure and scope of any new tariffs and the overall tariff framework remain uncertain and could create significant risks for our business. Depending on the countries affected, increases in tariffs have raised, and may continue to raise, the costs of inputs used in manufacturing our products, which in turn has impacted, and may further impact, our cost of goods sold. In addition, higher tariffs may lead to increased after‑tariff sales prices for the products we sell. Additionally, the economic uncertainty caused by the tariffs may result in customers delaying planned purchases of products and services. While impacts of the tariffs may be partially mitigated by the fact that a majority of our sales and manufacturing takes place outside the United States, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to fully offset the impact of existing or future tariffs through pricing, sourcing changes or other measures. Furthermore, retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on our exported products could negatively affect our sales and marketplace access in those countries. The economic uncertainty caused by these tariffs and related trade policy developments, together with uncertainty regarding their enforceability, continuation or modification, has adversely impacted, and is expected to continue to adversely impact, our sales.
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. We cannot predict or control the impact of the conflictconflicts in Ukraine or the Middle East on our business. These conflicts have already driven increased volatility across global energy, logistics and input markets, leading to higher fuel, fertilizer, transportation and input costs, as well as general uncertainty for farmers. 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.
