DEERE & CO 10-Q

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS All amounts are presented in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise specified. Overview Organization Deere & Company is a global leader in the production of agricultural, turf, construction, and forestry equipment and solutions. John Deere Financial provides financing for John Deere equipment, parts, services, and other inputs customers need to run their operations. Our operations are managed through the Production & Precision Agriculture (PPA), Small Agriculture & Turf (SAT), Construction & Forestry (CF), and Financial Services operating segments. References to “equipment operations” include PPA, SAT, and CF, while references to “agriculture and turf” include both PPA and SAT. Trends and Economic Conditions Industry Sales Outlook for Fiscal Year 2026 (in units) Agriculture and Turf Construction and Forestry Company Trends Our Leap Ambitions, a set of focused goals designed to guide the implementation of our Smart Industrial Operating Model, feature multi-year financial and operational goals, emphasizing the use of our differentiated equipment and service solutions, including automation, autonomy, digitalization, lifecycle solutions, and Solutions as a Service (SaaS). Deeper integration of technology into equipment to enable customers to do more with less remains a persistent market trend. Customers seek to improve profitability, productivity, and sustainability by selecting our equipment and technology solutions. These technologies are incorporated into customer operations across the varied production systems that we serve. While we continue to benefit from the adoption of these technologies, revenue from SaaS products did not represent a significant percentage of our revenues in the periods presented. Company Outlook for 2026 Large agriculture sales are expected to remain subdued in North America and to soften in South America resulting in decreased sales volume for PPA in 2026 compared to 2025. SAT and CF sales are expected to improve in 2026. Our overall net sales are expected to increase in 2026 compared to 2025, with the anticipated decline in PPA sales more than offset by improvements in CF and SAT. Agriculture and Turf Industry Outlook for 2026 ● Demand in the U.S. and Canada for large agriculture equipment is expected to decrease compared to 2025 levels as elevated farm input costs, commodity price volatility, and ongoing market uncertainty continue to pressure demand for equipment. ● We expect small agriculture and turf equipment sales to be flat to up slightly in the U.S. and Canada. Solid margins in the dairy and livestock sector and steady demand in residential and commercial mowing continue to support the outlook. ● In Europe, the industry is forecasted to be flat. While elevated input costs and challenging weather conditions are pressuring crop farming margins, favorable dairy market margins are expected to continue to provide ongoing support to overall industry demand. 31 ​ ● Demand in South America is expected to decrease. Elevated production costs and high interest rates are pressuring farm profitability and impacting equipment demand. ● Industry sales in Asia are forecasted to be roughly flat, mainly driven by stable end market demand. Construction and Forestry Industry Outlook for 2026 ● Industry sales in the U.S. and Canada for construction and compact construction equipment are projected to be higher compared to 2025. Favorable industry fundamentals are supported by infrastructure, data center, and energy-related projects, as well as continued investment in rental fleets. ● Global forestry markets are expected to decrease due to continued pressure from subdued residential construction demand and lower log and lumber prices. ● Global roadbuilding markets are forecasted to be up compared to 2025 driven by increased road construction investment across multiple geographies. Financial Services Outlook for 2026 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net Income ​ Down ​ (–) Average portfolio ​ Unfavorable ​ (–) Prior period special items ​ Unfavorable ​ + Financing spreads ​ Favorable ​ + Provision for credit losses ​ Favorable ​ Additional Trends Agricultural Market Business Cycle. The agricultural market is affected by various factors including commodity prices, acreage planted, crop yields, government policies, and uncertainty in macroeconomic trends. These factors affect farmers’ income and sentiment which may result in varying demand for our equipment. In 2026, we may experience the following effects due to unfavorable large agriculture market conditions: lower sales volumes, higher sales incentives, and elevated receivable write-offs. Global Trade Policies. In 2025, new tariffs were imposed in the U.S. for imports from a broad range of countries and on certain materials. Several countries also implemented retaliatory tariffs on imports from the U.S. and introduced additional trade barriers. Incremental import tariffs adversely affected the cost of our products and components beginning in 2025 and continue to do so in 2026. The direct impact of these incremental tariffs incurred was $502 in the first nine months of 2026, net of the tariff recovery described below, and approximately $300 in the first nine months of 2025. These amounts exclude the impact of tariffs on our suppliers and market demand. On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court of the United States issued a decision invalidating tariffs imposed pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. We recorded tariff recoveries in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 of $110 and $382, respectively, as we concluded the refunds are probable and reasonably estimable. As of August 2, 2026, approximately 80% of the recorded tariff recoveries have been received. The recovery was allocated 20%, 25%, and 55% to PPA, SAT, and CF, respectively, decreasing cost of sales. Trade policies continue to evolve, causing uncertainty in the agriculture and construction industries. We continue to pursue opportunities to mitigate impacts on our business, to the extent possible, including adjusting sourcing strategies, seeking product exemptions, and identifying cost reduction opportunities. Changes in the agricultural market business cycle and global trade policies are driven by factors outside of our control, and as a result, we cannot reasonably foresee when these conditions may subside. Legal Proceeding – On January 15, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), along with the Attorneys General of the States of Illinois and Minnesota filed a lawsuit against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Western Division. The Attorneys General of the States of Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin joined the lawsuit. On July 8, 2026, we entered into a settlement with the FTC and plaintiff states to resolve all claims contained in the lawsuit. As part of that settlement, we have agreed, among other items, to provide certain repair resources to farmers and independent repair providers on “fair and reasonable terms” (as defined by the settlement). We have also agreed to provide regular reporting to the FTC and submit to the FTC’s oversight of our compliance with the settlement. Other Items of Concern and Uncertainties – Other items that could impact our results are: ● slower economic growth and inflation ● global and regional political conditions ● shifts in energy, including positions with respect to biofuels, positions on government subsidies of farming, and changes in energy prices ● input costs, including the availability and price of fertilizers as a result of the conflict in the Middle East 32 ​ ● capital market disruptions ● foreign currency and capital control policies ● right to repair and agriculture data privacy regulations and legislation ● weather conditions ● marketplace pace of adoption and monetization of technologies we have invested in ● our ability to strengthen our digital capabilities, artificial intelligence, automation, and autonomy ● changes in demand and pricing for new and used equipment ● delays or disruptions in our supply chain ● significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates ● volatility in the prices of many commodities Consolidated Results – 2026 Compared with 2025 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended ​ Nine Months Ended ​ Deere & Company ​ August 2 ​ July 27 ​ % ​ August 2 ​ July 27 ​ % ​ (In millions of dollars, except per share amounts) ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Change ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Change ​ Net sales and revenues ​ $ 12,608 ​ $ 12,018 ​ +5 ​ $ 35,589 ​ $ 33,290 ​ +7 ​ Net income attributable to Deere & Company ​ ​ 1,379 ​ ​ 1,289 ​ +7 ​ ​ 3,808 ​ ​ 3,962 ​ -4 ​ Diluted earnings per share ​ ​ 5.10 ​ ​ 4.75 ​ ​ ​ ​ 14.06 ​ ​ 14.57 ​ ​ ​ ​ Net sales and revenues increased 5% and 7% for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to higher sales volumes, the positive effects of foreign currency translation, and favorable price realization. Net income increased $90 in the third quarter primarily due to favorable price realization of $286 ($403 pretax), partially offset by unfavorable tax impacts of $114 and increased production costs of $89 ($126 pretax), primarily from higher material costs. Results for the first nine months were also affected by favorable special tax items in the prior period (see Note 22) of $163. An explanation of the cost of sales to net sales ratio and other significant statements of consolidated income changes follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended ​ Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ August 2 ​ July 27 ​ % ​ August 2 ​ July 27 ​ % ​ Deere & Company ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Change ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Change ​ Cost of sales to net sales ​ ​ 72.2% ​ ​ 73.1% ​ ​ ​ ​ 73.1% ​ ​ 71.3% ​ ​ ​ • Material costs ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Unfavorable ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Unfavorable ​ • Tariffs, net of recoveries ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Favorable ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Unfavorable ​ • Production efficiencies ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Favorable ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Favorable ​ Higher material costs driven by inflationary pressures.

The average balance of receivables and leases financed was 2% lower in the third quarter of 2026 and 2% lower in the first nine months of 2026 compared with the same periods last year. Interest expense decreased as a result of lower average borrowing rates and lower average borrowings. Net income for both periods increased primarily due to favorable financing spreads, partially offset by the impact of a lower average portfolio. Net income in the first nine months was also impacted by the prior period benefiting from a special item (see Note 22), lower provision for credit losses, and favorable derivative valuation adjustments. Critical Accounting Estimates See our critical accounting estimates discussed in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to these policies. Capital Resources and Liquidity – 2026 Compared with 2025 We have access to global markets at a reasonable cost. Sources of liquidity include: ● cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on hand ● funds from operations ● the issuance of commercial paper and term debt ● the securitization of retail notes ● bank lines of credit We closely monitor our cash requirements. Based on the available sources of liquidity, we expect to meet our funding needs in the short term (next 12 months) and long term (beyond 12 months). We are forecasting operating cash flows from equipment operations in 2026 to remain flat compared with 2025 driven by an offsetting decrease in net income adjusted for non-cash provisions, and higher cash flows generated from increased accounts payable and accrued expenses. We operate in multiple industries, which have unique funding requirements. The equipment operations are capital intensive. Historically, these operations have been subject to seasonal variations in financing requirements for inventories and receivables from dealers. The financial services operations rely on their ability to raise substantial amounts of funds to finance their receivable and lease portfolios. Key metrics are provided in the following table: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ August 2 ​ November 2 ​ July 27 ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ 2025 ​ Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities ​ $ 10,278 ​ $ 9,687 ​ $ 9,987 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Trade accounts and notes receivable – net ​ ​ 7,723 ​ ​ 5,317 ​ ​ 6,103 ​ Ratio to prior 12 month’s net sales ​ ​ 19% ​ ​ 14% ​ ​ 16% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Inventories ​ ​ 7,811 ​ ​ 7,406 ​ ​ 7,713 ​ Ratio to prior 12 month’s cost of sales ​ ​ 26% ​ ​ 26% ​ ​ 29% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Unused credit lines ​ ​ 5,201 ​ ​ 7,268 ​ ​ 6,150 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Financial Services: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ratio of interest-bearing debt to stockholder’s equity ​ ​ 8.6 to 1 ​ ​ 8.4 to 1 ​ ​ 8.6 to 1 ​ ​ There have been no material changes to the contractual obligations and other cash requirements identified in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. 37 ​ Cash Flows ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ August 2, 2026 ​ July 27, 2025 ​ Net cash provided by operating activities ​ $ 3,250 ​ $ 3,464 ​ Net cash used for investing activities ​ ​ (825) ​ ​ (801) ​ Net cash used for financing activities ​ ​ (1,828) ​ ​ (1,557) ​ Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash ​ ​ 20 ​ ​ 108 ​ Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash ​ $ 617 ​ $ 1,214 ​ ​ Cash inflows from consolidated operating activities in the first nine months of 2026 were $3,250. This resulted mainly from net income adjusted for non-cash provisions, partially offset by an increase in receivables related to sales, an increase in inventories, and a decrease in accrued employee benefits. Cash outflows from investing activities were $825 in the first nine months of this year. The primary drivers were purchases of property and equipment and the acquisition of Tenna LLC (see Note 21), partially offset by collections of receivables (excluding receivables related to sales) exceeding the cost of receivables acquired. Cash outflows from financing activities were $1,828 in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to cash returned to shareholders. Cash returned to shareholders was $2,013 in the first nine months of 2026. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased $617 during the first nine months of 2026. Key Metrics and Balance Sheet Changes Trade Accounts and Notes Receivable. Trade accounts and notes receivable arise from sales of goods to customers. Trade receivables increased $2,406 during the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to a seasonal increase and higher sales volumes. These receivables increased $1,620 compared to a year ago due to higher sales volumes. The percentage of total worldwide trade receivables outstanding for periods exceeding 12 months was 1% at August 2, 2026, 3% at November 2, 2025, and 3% at July 27, 2025. Financing Receivables and Equipment on Operating Leases. Financing receivables and equipment on operating leases consist of retail notes originated in connection with financing of new and used equipment, operating leases, revolving charge accounts, sales-type and direct financing leases, and wholesale notes. Financing receivables and equipment on operating leases decreased $2,430 during the first nine months of 2026 and decreased $2,814 in the past 12 months. The decrease for both periods was due to lower agriculture and turf retail customer receivables reflecting reduced demand in recent years and lower wholesale receivables. Total acquisition volumes of financing receivables and equipment on operating leases were 8% higher in the first nine months of 2026, compared with the same period last year, as volumes of wholesale notes and revolving charge accounts were higher compared to the same period last year. Inventories. Inventories increased by $405 during the first nine months of 2026 primarily due to a seasonal increase and increased by $98 compared to a year ago. A majority of these inventories are valued at cost on the “last-in, first-out” (LIFO) method. Property and Equipment. Property and equipment cash expenditures in the first nine months of 2026 were $716 compared with $852 in the same period last year. Capital expenditures in 2026 are estimated to be approximately $1.3 billion. Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses. Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by $241 in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to a decrease in accrued expenses associated with employee benefits and dealer sales incentives, partially offset by an increase in trade payables and derivative liabilities. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $86 compared to a year ago due to an increase in trade payables and accrued expenses for warranty liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in accrued expenses associated with accrued taxes and employee benefits. Borrowings. Total external borrowings decreased by $100 in the first nine months of 2026 and decreased $2,810 compared to a year ago, generally corresponding with the level of the receivable and lease portfolio, as well as other working capital requirements. John Deere Capital Corporation (Capital Corporation), a U.S. financial services subsidiary, has a revolving warehouse facility to utilize bank conduit facilities to securitize retail notes (see Note 10). The facility was renewed in November 2025, with an expiration in November 2026, and total capacity or “financing limit” of $2,500. At August 2, 2026, $1,818 of securitization borrowings were outstanding under the facility. At the end of the contractual revolving period, unless the banks and Capital Corporation agree to renew, Capital Corporation would liquidate the secured borrowings over time as payments on the retail notes are collected. 38 ​ In the first nine months of 2026, the financial services operations issued $2,525 and retired $3,027 of retail note securitization borrowings, which are presented in “Net proceeds (payments) in short-term borrowings (original maturities three months or less).” Lines of Credit. We also have access to bank lines of credit with various banks throughout the world. Worldwide lines of credit totaled $12.6 billion at August 2, 2026, consisting primarily of: ● a 364-day credit facility agreement of $5.5 billion expiring in the second quarter of 2027 ● a credit facility agreement of $3.25 billion expiring in the second quarter of 2029 ● a credit facility agreement of $3.25 billion expiring in the second quarter of 2031 At August 2, 2026, $5,201 of these worldwide lines of credit were unused. For the purpose of computing unused credit lines, commercial paper and short-term bank borrowings were considered to constitute utilization. These credit agreements require Capital Corporation and other parts of our business to maintain certain performance metrics and liquidity targets. All requirements in the credit agreements have been met during the periods included in the financial statements. Debt Ratings. To access public debt capital markets, we rely on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings to our debt securities as an indicator of credit quality for fixed income investors. A security rating is not a recommendation by the rating agency to buy, sell, or hold our securities. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw ratings based on its assessment of our current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. Each agency’s rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Lower credit ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs, including costs of derivative transactions, reduced access to debt capital markets, and may adversely impact our liquidity. The senior long-term and short-term debt ratings and outlook currently assigned to our unsecured securities by the rating agencies engaged by us are as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Senior ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Long-Term ​ Short-Term ​ Outlook Fitch Ratings ​ A+ ​ F1 ​ Stable ​ Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. A1 Prime-1 Stable ​ Standard & Poor’s A A-1 Stable ​ ​ FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain statements contained herein, including in the sections entitled “Overview,” “Trends and Economic Conditions,” and “Condensed Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements” relating to future events, expectations, and trends constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve factors that are subject to change, assumptions, risks, and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.

Equipment operations represent the enterprise without Financial Services. Equipment operations include Production & Precision Agriculture operations, Small Agriculture & Turf operations, Construction & Forestry operations, and other corporate assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses not reflected within Financial Services. Transactions between the equipment operations and Financial Services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated financial statements. Equipment operations and Financial Services participate in different industries. Equipment operations primarily generate earnings and cash flows by manufacturing and selling equipment, service parts, and technology solutions to dealers and retail customers. Financial Services finance sales and leases by dealers of new and used equipment that is largely manufactured by equipment operations.
