Outlook

On April 1, 2024, AGCO acquired an 85% stake in PTx Trimble, and Trimble retains a 15% stake. AGCO began consolidating the PTx Trimble joint venture into its consolidated financial statements on April 1, 2024. On November 1, 2024, AGCO closed the previously announced divestiture of the Grain & Protein business.

AGCO's net sales for 2024 are expected to be approximately $12.0 billion, reflecting lower sales volumes. Adjusted operating margins are projected to be approximately 9%, reflecting the impacts of lower sales, lower production volumes, increased cost controls and modestly lower investments in engineering. Based on these assumptions, 2024 adjusted earnings per share are targeted at approximately $7.50.
