Market Conditions and Strategic Outlook

Global agricultural markets faced headwinds from lower farm income, elevated input costs, and trade uncertainty. Industry demand remained constrained across major regions, leading to cautious equipment spending by farmers. AGCO aligned production with demand and focused on cost discipline while advancing its Farmer-First strategy.

For the full year 2026, AGCO projects net sales between $9.8 billion and $10.0 billion, with an adjusted earnings per share outlook of approximately $5.50. These estimates incorporate tariff policies and mitigation strategies current as of October 29, 2026.
