NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of AGCO Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “AGCO”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year.

The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in Turkey that distributes agricultural equipment and replacement parts. On the basis of currently available data related to inflation indices and as a result of the devaluation of the Turkish lira relative to the United States dollar, the Turkish economy was determined to be highly inflationary. A highly inflationary economy is one where the cumulative inflation rate for the three years preceding the beginning of the reporting period, including interim reporting periods, is in excess of 100 percent. For the nine months ended and as of September 30, 2023, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary in Turkey had net sales of approximately $292.9 million and total assets of approximately 3.5 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $126.5 million). The monetary assets and liabilities denominated in the Turkish lira were approximately 3.0 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $109.4 million) and approximately 2.3 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $85.4 million), respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollar based on exchange rates as of September 30, 2023.

The Company is 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 U.S. dollars, has broadened significantly. The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in Argentina that assembles and distributes agricultural equipment and replacement parts. The Company determined that the Argentina economy was highly inflationary during the third quarter of 2018. For the nine months ended and as of September 30, 2023, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary in Argentina had net sales of approximately $164.6 million and total assets of approximately 82.8 billion pesos (or approximately $240.0 million). The monetary assets of the Company's operations in Argentina denominated in pesos at the official government rate were approximately 25.6 billion pesos (or approximately $74.4 million), inclusive of approximately 14.1 billion pesos (or approximately $41.0 million) in cash and cash equivalents, as of September 30, 2023. The monetary liabilities of the Company's operations in Argentina denominated in pesos at the official government rate were approximately 9.0 billion pesos (or approximately $26.2 million) as of September 30, 2023. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollar based on exchange rates as of September 30, 2023. The Company's finance joint venture in Argentina, AGCO Capital Argentina S.A. ("AGCO Capital") has net monetary assets denominated in pesos at the official government rate of approximately 7.1 billion (or approximately $20.5 million) as of September 30, 2023, of which a majority is cash and cash equivalents. Future impairments and charges are possible in connection with these exposures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for financial assets. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which delays the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies and other non-SEC reporting entities. This delay applies to the Company’s equity method finance joint ventures, which were required to adopt ASU 2016-13 for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those annual periods. The standard, and its subsequent modification, impacts the results of operations and financial condition of the Company’s finance joint ventures. For the adoption of the standard by the Company’s finance joint ventures on January 1, 2023 under the modified retrospective approach, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of ASU 2016-13 as an adjustment to the opening balance of

(unaudited)

stockholders’ equity as of January 1, 2023 within “Retained earnings.” The cumulative effect was a reduction of approximately $5.5 million.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, “Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” The new standard requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the key terms of the program, the amount of outstanding confirmed obligations at period end, where the obligations are presented in the balance sheet, and a rollforward of the obligations during the annual period. This guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the rollforward, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2022-04 resulted in disclosure of the Company's supplier financing programs. Refer to Note 10 for further details.

The Company has adopted ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations: Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows but may impact future acquisitions.

2. ACQUISITIONS

On September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a Sale and Contribution Agreement (the "Agreement") with Trimble Inc. ("Trimble") and its currently 100%-owned subsidiary Trimble Solutions, LLC (the "Joint Venture"). Among other things, the Agreement provides for (i) the contribution by Trimble to the Joint Venture of Trimble’s agricultural business, excluding certain Global Navigation Satellite System and guidance technologies, (ii) the contribution by the Company to the Joint Venture of the Company’s interest in JCA Industries, LLC d/b/a JCA Technologies ("JCA") in exchange for membership interests in the Joint Venture, and (iii) the purchase by the Company from Trimble of membership interests in exchange for the payment by the Company to Trimble of $2.0 billion in cash, subject to customary working capital and other adjustments. Immediately following the closing and as a result of the transaction, the Company will own an 85% interest in the Joint Venture. The closing is expected in the first half of 2024 and is subject to customary conditions, including compliance with antitrust and similar laws.

In connection with the planned Joint Venture, also on September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a bridge facility commitment letter with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding Inc. ("Morgan Stanley") pursuant to which Morgan Stanley has committed to provide, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, a $2.0 billion senior unsecured 364-day bridge facility (the "Bridge Facility").

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company paid $9.5 million in fees related to the Bridge Facility commitment which were recorded as a deferred asset included within “Other current assets” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2023 and will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the commitment.

On May 2, 2022, the Company acquired JCA for 63.0 million Canadian dollars (or approximately $49.2 million as of May 2, 2022). JCA is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and specializes in the design of electronic systems and software development to automate and control agricultural equipment. The Company allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquired net assets primarily consisted of accounts receivable, inventories, other current and noncurrent assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current and noncurrent liabilities, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax liabilities as well as customer relationship, technology and trademark identifiable intangible assets. The Company recorded approximately 43.9 million Canadian dollars (or approximately $34.0 million) of goodwill associated with the acquisition. The results of operations of JCA have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and from the date of acquisition. The associated goodwill has been included in the Company’s North America geographical reportable segment. Proforma financial information related to the acquisition of JCA was not material to the Company’s results of operations.

On January 1, 2022, the Company acquired Appareo Systems, LLC (“Appareo”) for approximately $62.1 million, net of approximately $0.5 million of cash. As a result of the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in IAS, the Company's previous operating joint venture with Appareo, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $3.4 million on the remeasurement of the previously held equity interest within “Other expense, net” in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of the previously held 50% interest in the joint venture as of the acquisition date was approximately $11.2 million. Appareo is headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota and offers engineering, manufacturing and technology for end-to-end product development. The Company allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities

assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquired net assets primarily consisted of accounts receivable, inventories, other current and noncurrent assets, assets held for sale, lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current and noncurrent liabilities, property, plant and equipment, as well as customer relationship, technology, non-competition agreements and trademark identifiable intangible assets. The Company recorded approximately $25.8 million of goodwill associated with the acquisition. The results of operations of Appareo have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and from the date of acquisition. The associated goodwill has been included in the Company’s North America geographical reportable segment. Proforma financial information related to the acquisition of Appareo was not material to the Company’s results of operations.

Credit Facility

In December 2022, the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and Rabobank, and other named lenders entered into an amendment to its credit facility providing for a $1.25 billion multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility (“credit facility”), which replaced the Company’s former $800.0 million multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility. The amendment provided an additional $450.0 million in borrowing capacity. An initial borrowing under the credit facility was used to repay and retire a $240.0 million short-term multi-currency revolving credit facility with Rabobank that matured on March 31, 2023. The credit facility consists of a $325.0 million U.S. dollar tranche and a $925.0 million multi-currency tranche for loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, Euros or other currencies to be agreed upon. The credit facility matures on December 19, 2027. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding for any borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars, at the Company’s option, at either (1) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 0.1% plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating, or (2) the base rate, which is the highest of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus 1.0%, plus a margin ranging from 0.000% to 0.875% based on the Company’s credit rating. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding for any borrowings denominated in Euros at the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $866.6 million outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had the ability to borrow $288.4 million.

Uncommitted Credit Facility

In June 2022, the Company entered into an uncommitted revolving credit facility that allows the Company to borrow up to €100.0 million (or approximately $105.8 million as of September 30, 2023). The credit facility expires on December 31, 2026. Any loans will bear interest at the EURIBOR plus a credit spread. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

0.800% Senior Notes Due 2028

On October 6, 2021, the Company issued €600.0 million (or approximately $634.9 million as of September 30, 2023) of senior notes at an issue price of 99.993%.

In aggregate, as of September 30, 2023, the Company had indebtedness of €220.0 million (or approximately $232.8 million as of September 30, 2023) through a group of five remaining related term loan agreements. The provisions of the term loan agreements are substantially identical, with the exception of interest rate terms and maturities. As of September 30, 2023, for the term loans with a fixed interest rate, interest is payable in arrears on an annual basis, with interest rates ranging from 1.33% to 2.26% and maturity dates between October 2023 and August 2028.

European Investment Bank ("EIB") Senior Term Loan

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a multi-currency Finance Contract with the EIB permitting the Company to borrow up to €250.0 million (or approximately $264.5 million as of September 30, 2023) to fund up to 50% of certain investments in research, development and innovation primarily in Germany, France and Finland during the period from 2023 through 2026. The loans will mature at a date established at the time of the relevant draw, which generally will be between four years and ten years for an amortizing draw and between three years and six years for a non-amortizing draw. Loans generally can be prepaid at any time upon the election of the Company and must be prepaid upon the occurrence of certain events. At the time of each draw, the Company will be entitled to elect whether the borrowing will bear a fixed rate of interest equal to the EIB’s then customary rate or a floating rate of interest equal to SOFR (in the case of Dollar denominated loans) or EURIBOR (in the case of non-Dollar denominated loans), in each case plus a margin based upon the Company’s credit rating. The Company also has to fulfill financial covenants with respect to a net leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. There were no amounts outstanding under the EIB Senior Term Loan as of September 30, 2023. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on October 26, 2023, the Company borrowed €250.0 million (approximately $263.7 million) under the arrangement.

Bridge Facility

As discussed in Note 2, in connection with the planned Joint Venture with Trimble Inc., on September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a bridge facility commitment letter with Morgan Stanley pursuant to which Morgan Stanley has committed to provide a $2.0 billion senior unsecured 364-day bridge facility (the "Bridge Facility"). Amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility will accrue interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s election, at either (1) the SOFR plus 0.1% plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 2.625% based on the Company’s credit rating, or (2) the base rate, which is the highest of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus 1.0%, plus a margin ranging from 0.000% to 1.625% based on the Company’s credit rating, together with a duration fee based on the closing date of the transaction. There are no amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility as of September 30, 2023.

7. RECOVERABLE INDIRECT TAXES

The Company’s Brazilian operations incur value added taxes (“VAT”) on certain purchases of raw materials, components and services. These taxes are accumulated as tax credits and create assets that are reduced by the VAT collected from the Company’s sales in the Brazilian market. The Company regularly assesses the recoverability of these tax credits and establishes reserves when necessary against them, through analyses that include, amongst others, the history of realization, the transfer of tax credits to third parties as authorized by the government, anticipated changes in the supply chain and the future expectation of tax debits from the Company’s ongoing operations. The Company believes that these tax credits, net of established reserves, are realizable. The Company had recorded approximately $97.3 million and $94.6 million, respectively, of VAT tax credits, net of reserves, as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

8. INVENTORIES

Inventories at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows (in millions):

The warranty reserve activity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, including deferred revenue associated with the Company's extended warranties that have been sold, was as follows (in millions):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Balance at beginning of period	$	727.2	$	589.5	$	640.0	$	592.5

Accruals for warranties issued during the period	123.9		86.1		321.4		231.3
Settlements made (in cash or in kind) during the period	(94.8)		(81.8)		(222.7)		(189.5)
Foreign currency translation	(21.1)		(31.9)		(3.5)		(72.4)
Balance at September 30	$	735.2	$	561.9	$	735.2	$	561.9

The Company’s agricultural equipment products generally are warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one to four years. The Company accrues for future warranty costs at the time of sale based on historical warranty experience. Approximately $625.6 million, $546.0 million and $482.1 million of warranty reserves are included in “Accrued expenses” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively. Approximately $109.6 million, $94.0 million and $79.8 million of warranty reserves are included in “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2022, respectively.

The Company recognizes potential recoveries of the costs associated with warranties it provides when the collection is probable. When specifics of the recovery have been agreed upon with the Company’s suppliers through the confirmation of liability for the recovery, the Company records the recovery within “Accounts and notes receivable, net.” Estimates of the amount of warranty claim recoveries to be received from the Company’s suppliers based upon contractual supplier arrangements are recorded within “Other current assets.”

10. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAMS

The Company has supplier financing arrangements with certain banks or other intermediaries whereby a bank or intermediary purchases receivables held by the Company’s suppliers. Under the program, suppliers have the option to be paid by the bank or intermediary earlier than the payment due date. When the supplier receives an early payment, they receive discounted amounts, and the Company pays the bank or intermediary the face amount of the invoice on the payment due date. The Company does not reimburse suppliers for any costs incurred for participation in the program. The Company and its suppliers agree on the contractual terms, including prices, quantities and payment terms, regardless of whether the supplier elects to participate in the supplier finance programs. The suppliers’ voluntary inclusion in the supplier financing programs has no bearing on the Company’s payment terms. The Company has no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in the programs, and the Company has no direct financial relationship with the banks or other intermediaries as it relates to the supplier finance programs. As of September 30, 2023, payment terms with the majority of the Company’s suppliers are generally 30 to 180 days, which correspond to the contractual terms, with rates that are based on market rates (such as SOFR) plus a credit spread. There are no assets pledged as security under the programs. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the amounts outstanding that remain unpaid to the banks or other intermediaries totaled $90.7 million and $121.5 million, respectively, and are reflected in “Accounts payable” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

11. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per common share assumes the exercise of outstanding SSARs and the vesting of performance share awards and RSUs, when applicable, using the treasury stock method when there is no other circumstance other than the passage of time under which they would not be issued, and the effects of such assumptions are dilutive.

A reconciliation of net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries and weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted net income per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows (in millions, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Basic net income per share:
Net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	280.6	$	237.9	$	832.4	$	567.4
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	74.9		74.6		74.9		74.6
Basic net income per share attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	3.75	$	3.19	$	11.11	$	7.60
Diluted net income per share:
Net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	280.6	$	237.9	$	832.4	$	567.4
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	74.9		74.6		74.9		74.6
Dilutive SSARs, performance share awards and RSUs	0.1		0.3		0.1		0.3
Weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding for purposes of computing diluted net income per share	75.0		74.9		75.0		74.9
Diluted net income per share attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	3.74	$	3.18	$	11.10	$	7.58

There were no SSARs outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 that had an antidilutive impact.

12. INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $312.9 million and $281.7 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized income tax benefits, all of which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. Gross unrecognized income tax benefits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 exclude certain indirect favorable effects that relate to other tax jurisdictions of approximately $91.8 million and $74.0 million, respectively. In addition, the gross unrecognized income tax benefits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 exclude certain deposits made in a foreign jurisdiction of approximately $25.7 million, net of $19.0 million refunds received, and $45.1 million, respectively, associated with an ongoing audit. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $10.8 million and $10.4 million, respectively, of accrued or deferred taxes related to uncertain income tax positions connected with ongoing income tax audits in various jurisdictions that it expects to settle or pay in the next 12 months, reflected in “Other current liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $304.7 million and $274.1 million, respectively, of accrued taxes reflected in “Other noncurrent liabilities”, and approximately $2.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of deferred tax assets related to uncertain tax positions that it expects to settle or pay beyond 12 months, reflected in “Deferred tax assets” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $25.5 million and $25.8 million, respectively. Generally, tax years 2019 through 2022 remain open to examination by taxing authorities in the United States and certain other foreign tax jurisdictions. The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely examined by tax authorities in the United States and in various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. As of September 30, 2023, a number of income tax examinations in foreign jurisdictions are ongoing.

The Company maintains a valuation allowance to reserve against its net deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from estimated future taxable income and available tax planning strategies and has determined that all adjustments to the valuation allowances have been appropriate. In making this assessment, all available evidence was considered including the current economic climate, as well as reasonable tax planning strategies. The Company believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize its remaining net deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowance, in future years.

In 2008 and 2012, as part of routine audits, the Brazilian taxing authorities disallowed deductions relating to the amortization of certain goodwill recognized in connection with a reorganization of the Company’s Brazilian operations and the related transfer of certain assets to the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries. The amount of the tax disallowance through September 30, 2023, not including interest and penalties, would have been approximately 131.5 million Brazilian reais (or approximately $26.3 million). The amount ultimately in dispute would have been significantly greater because of interest and penalties. The Company historically had been advised by its legal and tax advisors that its position with respect to the deductions was allowable under the tax laws of Brazil. The Company contested the disallowance and maintained that it was not likely that the assessment, interest or penalties would require payment. The ultimate outcome of the case would not have been determined until the Brazilian tax appeal process was completed.

On January 12, 2023, the Brazilian government issued a “Litigation Zero” tax amnesty program, whereby cases being disputed at the administrative court level of review for a period of more than ten years could be considered for amnesty. Enrollment in the amnesty program would not be considered an admission of guilt with respect to outstanding cases. The amnesty program allowed companies to settle outstanding contested cases at a significant monetary discount. After weighing various impacts involved with enrollment, including the avoidance of potential interest, penalties and legal costs, the Company enrolled in the program in the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The Company recorded its best estimate of the ultimate settlement under the amnesty program of approximately 182.6 million Brazilian reais (or approximately $34.8 million) within “Income tax provision” for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net of associated U.S. income tax credits of approximately $8.4 million. The Company paid installment payments related to the program of 166.7 million Brazilian reais (or approximately $33.4 million) during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and paid the final installment payment totaling approximately $4.4 million in October 2023. The payments were inclusive of $1.2 million of interest on payments and approximately $1.8 million of negative currency translation.

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivative Transactions Designated as Hedging Instruments

Cash Flow Hedges

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company uses cash flow hedges to minimize the variability in cash flows of assets or liabilities or forecasted transactions caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The changes in the fair values of these cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are subsequently reclassified into “Cost of goods sold” during the period the sales and purchases are recognized. These amounts offset the effect of the changes in foreign currency rates on the related sale and purchase transactions.

The Company designates certain foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges of expected future sales and purchases. The total notional value of derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges was approximately $247.0 million and $364.8 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Steel Commodity Contracts

The Company designates certain steel commodity contracts as cash flow hedges of expected future purchases of steel. The total notional value of derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges was approximately $0.4 million and $0.9 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company uses non-derivative and derivative instruments to hedge a portion of its net investment in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates. For instruments that are designated as hedges of net investments in foreign operations, changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments are recorded in foreign currency translation adjustments, a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, to offset changes in the value of the net investments being hedged. When the net investment in foreign operations is sold or substantially liquidates, the amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss are reclassified to earnings. To the extent foreign currency denominated debt is de-designated from a net investment hedge relationship, changes in the value of the foreign currency denominated debt are recorded in earnings through the maturity date.

On January 29, 2021, the Company entered into a new cross currency swap contract as a hedge of its net investment in foreign operations to offset foreign currency translation gains or losses on the net investment. The cross currency swap has an expiration date of January 29, 2028. At maturity of the cross currency swap contract, the Company will deliver the notional amount of approximately €247.9 million (or approximately $262.3 million as of September 30, 2023) and will receive $300.0 million from the counterparties. The Company will receive quarterly interest payments from the counterparties based on a fixed interest rate until the maturity of the cross currency swap.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company designated €150.0 million (or approximately $158.7 million as of September 30, 2023) of its multi-currency revolving credit facility maturing December 2027 as a hedge of its net investment in foreign operations to offset foreign currency translation gains or losses on the net investment.

Derivative Transactions Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

The Company enters into foreign currency contracts to economically hedge a portion of its receivables and payables on the Company and its subsidiaries’ balance sheets that are denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency. These contracts are classified as non-designated derivative instruments. Gains and losses on such contracts are substantially offset by losses and gains on the remeasurement of the underlying asset or liability being hedged and are immediately recognized into earnings. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding foreign currency contracts with a notional amount of approximately $5.1 billion and $3.7 billion, respectively.

The following table summarizes the impact that changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments had on net income (in millions):

Share Repurchase Program

In November 2021, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with a financial institution to repurchase an aggregate of $60.0 million of shares of its common stock. The Company received 393,733 shares in this transaction as of December 31, 2021. On January 19, 2022, the Company received an additional 113,824 shares upon final settlement of its November 2021 ASR agreement. All shares received under the ASR agreement were retired upon receipt, and the excess of the purchase price over par value per share was recorded to a combination of “Additional paid-in capital” and “Retained earnings” within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not purchase any shares directly or enter into any accelerated share repurchase agreements. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining amount authorized to be repurchased under board-approved share repurchase authorizations was approximately $110.0 million, which has no expiration date.

Dividends

On April 27, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase to its quarterly dividend commencing in the second quarter of 2023 by 21% to $0.29 per common share and declared a special variable dividend of $5.00 per common share that was paid during the second quarter of 2023. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company declared and paid cash dividends of $0.29 and $0.24 per common share, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company declared and paid cash dividends of $5.81 and $5.16 per common share, respectively. On October 26, 2023, the Company approved the quarterly dividend of $0.29 per common share to be paid on December 15, 2023, to all stockholders of record as of the close of business November 15, 2023.

15. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SALES AGREEMENTS

The Company has accounts receivable sales agreements that permit the sale, on an ongoing basis, of a majority of its wholesale receivables in North America, Europe and Brazil to its U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian finance joint ventures. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the cash received from receivables sold under the U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian accounts receivable sales agreements was approximately $2.1 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively.

Under the terms of the accounts receivable sales agreements in North America, Europe and Brazil, the Company pays

an annual fee related to the servicing of the receivables sold. The Company also pays the respective AGCO Finance entities a subsidized interest payment with respect to the accounts receivable sales agreements, calculated based upon the interest rate charged by Rabobank to its affiliate, and such affiliate then lends to the AGCO Finance entities plus an agreed-upon margin. These fees are reflected within losses on the sales of receivables included within “Other expense, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not service the receivables after the sale occurs and does not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. The Company reviewed its accounting for the accounts receivable sales agreements and determined that these facilities should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

In addition, the Company sells certain trade receivables under factoring arrangements to other financial institutions around the world. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the cash received from these arrangements was approximately $218.7 million and $170.8 million, respectively.

Losses on sales of receivables associated with the accounts receivable sales agreements discussed above, reflected within “Other expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, were approximately $40.5 million and $99.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Losses on sales of receivables associated with the accounts receivable financing facilities discussed above, reflected within “Other expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, were approximately $20.4 million and $38.5 million, respectively, during the three and nine ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

The Company’s finance joint ventures in Europe, Brazil and Australia also provide wholesale financing directly to the Company’s dealers. The receivables associated with these arrangements are without recourse to the Company. The Company does not service the receivables after the sale occurs and does not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, these finance joint ventures had approximately $139.4 million and $69.5 million, respectively, of outstanding accounts receivable associated with these arrangements. The Company accounts for these arrangements as off-balance sheet transactions.

In certain foreign countries, the Company invoices its finance joint ventures directly and the finance joint ventures retain a form of title to the goods delivered to dealers until the dealer makes payment so that the finance joint ventures can recover the goods in the event of dealer or end customer default on payment. This occurs as the laws of some foreign countries do not provide for a seller’s retention of a security interest in goods in the same manner as established in the United States Uniform Commercial Code. The only right the finance joint ventures retain with respect to the title are those enabling recovery of the goods in the event of customer default on payment. The dealer or distributor may not return equipment or replacement parts to the Company while its contract with the finance joint venture is in force, and can only return the equipment to the retail finance joint venture with penalties that would generally not make it economically beneficial to do so.

17. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities into one of three levels based on the assumptions used in valuing the asset or liability. Estimates of fair value for financial assets and liabilities are based on a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. In accordance with this guidance, fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

•Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•Level 3 - Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

The Company categorizes its pension plan assets into one of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company enters into foreign currency, commodity and interest rate swap contracts. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are determined using discounted cash flow valuation models. The significant inputs used in these models are readily available in public markets, or can be derived from observable market transactions, and therefore have been classified as Level 2. Inputs used in these discounted cash flow valuation models for derivative instruments include the applicable exchange rates, forward rates or interest rates. Such models used for option contracts also use implied volatility. See Note 13 for additional information on the Company’s derivative instruments and hedging activities.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are summarized below (in millions):


	As of September 30, 2023
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Derivative assets	$	—	$	50.5	$	—	$	50.5
Derivative liabilities	—		11.6		—		11.6


	As of December 31, 2022
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Derivative assets	$	—	$	40.9	$	—	$	40.9
Derivative liabilities	—		40.4		—		40.4

The carrying amounts of long-term debt under the Company’s 1.002% senior term loan due 2025 and senior term loans due between 2023 and 2028 approximate fair value based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and average maturities. At September 30, 2023, the estimated fair value of the Company's 0.800% senior notes due 2028, based on listed market values, was approximately €496.9 million (or approximately $525.8 million as of September 30, 2023), compared to the carrying value of €600.0 million (or approximately $634.9 million as of September 30, 2023). See Note 6 for additional information on the Company’s long-term debt.

18. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s four reportable segments distribute a full range of agricultural equipment and related replacement parts. 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 generally charged to each segment based on the region and division where the expenses are incurred. As a result, the components of income from operations for one segment may not be comparable to another segment. Segment results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and assets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 based on the Company’s reportable segments are as follows (in millions):

__________________________________

(1) Operating lease payments include options to extend or terminate at the Company's sole discretion, which are included in the determination of lease term when they are reasonably certain to be exercised.

(2) Calculated for each lease using either the implicit interest rate or the incremental borrowing rate when the implicit interest rate is not readily available.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Guarantees

The Company maintains a remarketing agreement with its U.S. finance joint venture, AGCO Finance LLC, whereby the Company is obligated to repurchase up to $6.0 million of repossessed equipment each calendar year. The Company believes that any losses that it might incur on the resale of this equipment will not be material, due to the fair value of the underlying equipment.

At September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding guarantees issued to its Argentine finance joint venture, AGCO Capital Argentina S.A. (“AGCO Capital”) of approximately $36.6 million. Such guarantees generally obligate the Company to repay outstanding finance obligations owed to AGCO Capital if end users default on such loans to the extent that, due to non-Credit Risk, the end users are not able, or not required, to pay their loans, or are required to pay in a different currency than the one agreed in their loan. The Company also has obligations to guarantee indebtedness owed to certain of its finance joint ventures if dealers or end users default on loans. Losses under such guarantees historically have been insignificant, and the guarantees are not material. The Company believes the credit risk associated with these guarantees is not material.

In addition, at September 30, 2023, the Company had accrued approximately $14.7 million of outstanding guarantees of residual values that may be owed to its finance joint ventures in the United States and Canada due upon expiration of certain eligible operating leases between the finance joint ventures and end users. The maximum potential amount of future payments under these guarantees is approximately $185.0 million.

Other

At September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding designated and non-designated foreign exchange contracts with a gross notional amount of approximately $5,305.5 million. The outstanding contracts as of September 30, 2023 range in maturity through December 2023. The Company also had outstanding designated steel commodity contracts with a gross notional amount of approximately $0.4 million that range in maturity through November 2023.

The Company sells a majority of its wholesale receivables in North America, Europe and Brazil to its U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian finance joint ventures. The Company also sells certain accounts receivable under factoring arrangements to financial institutions around the world. The Company accounts for the sale of such receivables as off-balance sheet transactions. Refer to Note 15 for discussion of the Company’s accounts receivable sales agreements.

Contingencies

During 2017, the Company purchased Precision Planting, which provides precision agricultural technology solutions. In 2018, Deere & Company (“Deere”) filed separate complaints in the U.S. District Court of Delaware against the Company and Precision Planting alleging that certain products of those entities infringed certain patents of Deere. The two complaints subsequently were consolidated into a single case, Case No. 1:18-cv-00827-CFC. In July 2022, the case was tried before a jury, which determined that the Company and Precision Planting had not infringed the Deere patents. Following customary post-trial procedures, the Court entered a judgement in the Company’s favor, and Deere appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The parties currently are briefing of the appeal. The Company has an indemnity right under the purchase agreement related to the acquisition of Precision Planting from its previous owner. Pursuant to that right, the previous owner of Precision Planting currently is responsible for the litigation costs associated with the complaint and is obligated to reimburse AGCO for some or all of the damages in the event of an adverse outcome in the litigation.

The Company is a party to various other legal claims and actions incidental to its business. The Company believes that none of these claims or actions, either individually or in the aggregate, are material to its business or financial statements as a whole, including its results of operations and financial condition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

Our operations are subject to the cyclical and seasonal nature of the agricultural industry. Sales of our equipment are affected by, among other things, changes in farm income, farm land values, weather conditions, the demand for agricultural commodities, commodity prices and general economic conditions. We record sales when we sell equipment and replacement parts to our independent dealers, distributors and other customers. To the extent possible, we attempt to sell products to our dealers and distributors on a level basis throughout the year to reduce the effect of seasonal demands on manufacturing operations and to minimize our investment in inventories. However, retail sales by dealers to farmers are highly seasonal and largely are a function of the timing of the planting and harvesting seasons. As a result, our net sales historically have been the lowest in the first quarter and have increased in subsequent quarters.

On September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a Sale and Contribution Agreement with Trimble Inc. ("Trimble") to form a joint venture (i) to which Trimble will contribute its agricultural business (other than certain Global Navigation Satellite System and guidance technologies) and AGCO will contribute JCA Technologies, and (ii) AGCO will acquire an 85% interest in the joint venture for cash consideration of $2.0 billion. We believe the joint venture will create a global-leading mixed-fleet precision agriculture platform. We will be the exclusive provider of Trimble’s comprehensive technology offering, supporting the future development and distribution of next-generation agriculture technologies. Trimble offers a wide variety of user-friendly technologies compatible across brands, equipment models and farm types. Its hardware, software and cloud-based applications span all aspects of the crop cycle, from land preparation to planting and seeding to harvest. We expect the transaction to close during the first half of 2024. See Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

The COVID-19 pandemic and other economic and geopolitical factors, including inflation and the conflict in Ukraine, continue to create volatility in the global economy, including the potential for energy shortages, employment disruptions, supply chain constraints and delays in deliveries, as well as logistics interruptions. These factors, along with fluctuating industrial demand, can have an adverse effect on production levels, particularly as a result of delays in the receipts of parts and components. We may continue to face supplier delays in all regions as well as challenges with logistics, and we continue to work to mitigate the impact of these issues in order to meet end-market demand.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we generated net income of approximately $280.6 million, or $3.74 per share, compared to approximately $237.9 million or $3.18 per share, for the same period in 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated net income of approximately $832.4 million, or $11.10 per share, compared to approximately $567.4 million, or $7.58 per share, for the same period in 2022.

Net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately $3,455.5 million, which were approximately 10.7% higher than the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing and increased sales of high horsepower tractors, combines and application equipment as well as favorable currency impacts in our North America, South America and Europe/Middle East ("EME") regions. These increases were partially offset by lower sales and unfavorable currency impacts in our Asia/Pacific/Africa ("APA") region.

Net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately $10,611.7 million, which were approximately 21.2% higher than the same periods in 2022. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing and increased sales of high horsepower tractors, combines, hay tools and application equipment in our North America, South America and EME regions. These increases were partially offset by lower sales and unfavorable currency impacts in our APA region.

Income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $423.6 million compared to approximately $332.1 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily the result of positive net pricing and favorable sales mix. These increases were partially offset by material cost inflation, increased selling, general and administrative expenses and engineering expenses compared to the same period in 2022.

Income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $1,307.3 million compared to approximately $799.6 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily the result of positive net pricing, higher net sales and production volumes, along with a favorable sales mix. These increases were partially offset by material cost inflation, increased selling, general and administrative expenses and engineering expenses compared to the same period in 2022.

Regionally, income from operations in our EME region increased for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to positive net pricing and a favorable sales mix. Income from operations in our EME region increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of positive net pricing, higher sales and production along with a favorable sales mix. In our North American region, income from operations increased for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to positive net pricing and a favorable sales mix, including significant growth in Fendt products, compared to the same period in 2022. Income from operations in our North America region increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of positive net pricing, higher sales and production and a favorable sales mix. In our South American region, income from operations increased in both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 due to the benefit of net pricing and higher net sales as well as a favorable sales mix. In our APA region, income from operations decreased for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily due to lower sales, a weaker sales mix and higher logistics costs.

STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately $3,455.5 million compared to approximately $3,121.6 million for the same period in 2022. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately $10,611.7 million compared to approximately $8,752.5 million for the same period in 2022. The following tables set forth, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the impacts to net sales of currency translation by geographical segment (in millions, except percentages):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Change				Change Due to Currency Translation
	2023		2022		$		%		$		%

Regionally, net sales in our EME region were higher during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 primarily due to higher net sales of high horsepower tractors, utility tractors and parts as well as positive pricing impacts. Net sales in North America increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 primarily due to higher net sales of high horsepower tractors and application equipment as well as positive pricing impacts to offset inflationary cost pressures. Net sales in South America increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily as a result of higher net sales of high horsepower tractors and planters, as well as favorable pricing impacts. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by both Brazil and Argentina in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and by Brazil in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. In our APA region, net sales decreased during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to lower net sales resulting from declines in Japan, Australia and China and negative impacts of foreign currency translation. Net sales decreased in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of lower net sales in Japan, mostly offset by higher sales in Australia and China, and negative impacts of foreign currency translation.

We estimate our worldwide average price increase was approximately 9.9% and 11.9%, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same prior-year periods. Consolidated net sales of tractors and combines, which together comprised approximately 63.2% and 62.9%, respectively, of our net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased approximately 14.2% and 27.0% compared to the same periods in 2022. Unit sales of tractors and combines decreased approximately 11.3% and increased approximately 0.9%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022. The decrease in unit sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 related to a reduction in sales of compact tractors which more than offset increased sales of high horsepower tractors and combines.The difference between the unit sales change and the change in net sales was primarily the result of foreign currency translation, pricing and sales mix changes.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022. These increases were primarily as a result of favorable pricing and a favorable sales mix that more than offset inflationary material and freight cost increases.

Global production hours decreased approximately 2.1% and increased approximately 8.0%, respectively, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022. The decrease in global production hours in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 was a result of higher production hours that were incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2022 to recover from the cyber attack in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in global production hours in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to robust market demand as well as easing of supply chain and logistics disruptions experienced in 2022. Some of our production facilities continue to face supply chain and logistics disruptions that have impacted our ability to produce and ship units, which also has contributed to labor inefficiencies and resulted in higher than anticipated raw material and work in process inventory levels. We also are continuing to experience material, labor and freight cost inflation. These factors may continue, which could impact production and inventory levels and net sales and margins in future periods.

We recorded approximately $0.4 million and $1.4 million of stock compensation expense within cost of goods sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to approximately $0.4 million and $1.0 million for the comparable periods in 2022, respectively. See below and refer to Note 4 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on stock compensation expense.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) as a percentage of net sales were higher for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to higher variable compensation expense and Trimble-related transaction related costs. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were relatively flat for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of higher variable compensation expense and Trimble-related transaction related costs offset by higher net sales. We recorded approximately $9.8 million and $36.1 million of stock compensation expense within SG&A expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to approximately $7.4 million and $24.4 million during the same periods in 2022. Refer to Note 4 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on stock compensation expense.

Restructuring expenses of approximately $0.8 million and $8.3 million, respectively, were recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily related to severance and other related costs associated with the rationalization of certain South American, North American, European, Africa and Asian manufacturing operations. Refer to Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

“Interest expense, net” was approximately $5.5 million and $11.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to approximately $2.3 million and $8.6 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2022. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information.

“Other expense, net” was approximately $84.2 million and $212.6 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to approximately $33.1 million and $72.3 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2022. The increase in “Other expense, net” reflects an increase in foreign exchange losses related to the devaluation of the Turkish lira and Argentina peso during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022. 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 $40.5 million and $99.3 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to approximately $20.4 million and $38.5 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2022. The increase in losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily a result of higher sales of accounts receivable and higher interest rates as compared to 2022. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the increases in "Other expense, net" were partially offset by business interruption insurance recoveries of $10 million related to the cyber attack in the second quarter of 2022.

We recorded an income tax provision of approximately $75.3 million and $306.5 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to approximately $74.2 million and $205.9 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2022. Our effective tax rate varies from period to period due to the mix of taxable income and losses in the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. We maintain a valuation allowance to reserve against our net deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions. In addition, we recorded approximately $26.4 million within our income tax provision during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 associated with our enrollment in a Brazilian tax amnesty program as is more fully described in Note 12 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Equity in net earnings of affiliates, which is primarily comprised of income from our AGCO Finance joint ventures, was approximately $21.9 million and $55.9 million, respectively, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to approximately $15.4 million and $39.7 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2022 primarily due to higher earnings in our finance joint ventures. A write-down of our investment in our Russian finance joint venture of approximately $4.8 million was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Russian finance joint venture was sold during the three months ended December 31, 2022. Refer to “Finance Joint Ventures” for further information regarding our finance joint ventures and their results of operations.

Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to approximately $0.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively, in the same periods in 2022. The loss during the nine month period ended September 30, 2022 related to our Russia joint venture.

We previously invested in two joint ventures that operated in Russia primarily for the manufacture and distribution of equipment and parts. Beginning in 2018, our Russian joint venture partner became subject to sanctions by the United States. Subsequent to the commencement of these sanctions, we previously had time-limited general licenses from the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of Treasury that permitted us to continue our participation, which expired on May 25, 2022. Following that expiration, we “blocked” our interest in our Russian manufacturing joint venture through a process acceptable to OFAC, which had the effect of suspending our role in that joint venture. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we assessed the fair value of our gross assets related to the joint ventures for potential impairments and recorded asset impairment charges of approximately $36.0 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, we sold our interest in the Russian distribution joint venture. Refer to Note 3 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

AGCO FINANCE JOINT VENTURES

Our AGCO Finance joint ventures provide both retail financing and wholesale financing to our dealers in the United States, Canada, Europe, Brazil, Argentina and Australia. The joint ventures are owned by AGCO and by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rabobank. The majority of the assets of the finance joint ventures consist of finance receivables. The majority of the liabilities consist of notes payable and accrued interest. Under the various joint venture agreements, Rabobank or its affiliates provide financing to the finance joint ventures, primarily through lines of credit. We do not guarantee the debt obligations of the joint ventures. In the United States and Canada, we guarantee certain minimum residual values to those joint ventures upon expiration of certain eligible leases between the finance joint ventures and end users. See “Commitments, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contingencies” and Note 19 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

As of September 30, 2023, our investment in the finance joint ventures, which is included in “Investment in affiliates” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was approximately $463.8 million compared to $390.2 million as of December 31, 2022. The total finance portfolio in our finance joint ventures was approximately $12.8 billion and $11.8 billion as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The total finance portfolio as of September 30, 2023 included approximately $10.1 billion of retail receivables and $2.7 billion of wholesale receivables from our dealers. The total finance portfolio as of December 31, 2022 included approximately $9.5 billion of retail receivables and $2.3 billion of wholesale receivables from our dealers. The wholesale receivables either were sold directly to AGCO Finance without recourse from our operating companies or AGCO Finance provided the financing directly to the dealers. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made an investment in our Brazilian finance joint venture of approximately $24.6 million. There were no dividends paid from our finance joint ventures during 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our share in the earnings of the finance joint ventures, included in “Equity in net earnings of affiliates” within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, was approximately $53.3 million compared to approximately $40.4 million for the same period in 2022. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 we recorded a write-down of our investment in our Russian finance joint venture of approximately $4.8 million, reflected within “Equity in net earnings of affiliates” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Russian finance joint venture was sold during the three months ended December 31, 2022.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our financing requirements generally 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 Trimble transaction. We believe that the following facilities and available cash and internally generated funds, will be sufficient to support our working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future (in millions):


	September 30, 2023(1)

Credit facility, expires 2027	$	866.6
1.002% Senior term loan due 2025	264.5

Senior term loans due between 2023 and 2028	232.8

The Company has access to a credit facility providing for a $1.25 billion multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility (“credit facility”) which matures on December 19, 2027. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $866.6 million outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had the ability to borrow $288.4 million.

In addition, the Company has access to an uncommitted revolving credit facility that allows the Company to borrow up to €100.0 million (or approximately $105.8 million as of September 30, 2023). The credit facility expires on December 31, 2026. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

In connection with the planned Joint Venture with Trimble Inc., on September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a bridge facility commitment letter with Morgan Stanley pursuant to which Morgan Stanley has committed to provide, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, a $2.0 billion senior unsecured 364-day bridge facility. There were no amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility as of September 30, 2023. Subject to market conditions, the Company intends to finance the planned Joint Venture transaction through a combination of existing liquidity, ongoing cash flow from operations and the issuance of new debt and not to utilize funding pursuant to the commitment letter.

We are in compliance with the financial covenants contained in these facilities and expect to continue to maintain such compliance. Should we ever encounter difficulties, our historical relationship with our lenders has been strong, and we anticipate their continued long-term support of our business.

See Note 6 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

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. As of September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the cash received from receivables sold under the U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian accounts receivable sales agreements was approximately $2.1 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively.

In addition, we sell certain trade receivables under factoring arrangements to other financial institutions around the world. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the cash received from these arrangements was approximately $218.7 million and $170.8 million, respectively.

Our finance joint ventures in Europe, Brazil and Australia also provide wholesale financing directly to our dealers. The receivables associated with these arrangements are also without recourse to us. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, these finance joint ventures had approximately $139.4 million and $69.5 million, respectively, of outstanding accounts receivable associated with these arrangements. These arrangements are accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions. In addition, we sell certain trade receivables under factoring arrangements to other financial institutions around the world. These arrangements are also accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

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 September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount outstanding that remains unpaid to the banks or other intermediaries associated with these programs totaled $90.7 million and $121.5 million, respectively. Refer to Note 10 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Our debt to capitalization ratio, which is total indebtedness divided by the sum of total indebtedness and stockholders’ equity, was 31.5% and 27.3% at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Cash Flows

Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $202.7 million for the first nine months of 2023 compared to cash used in operating activities of approximately $295.1 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in cash flows provided in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily as a result of an increase in net income as compared to the same period in 2022. Supply chain challenges continued to result in higher raw material and work-in-process inventory levels during the first nine months of 2023.

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 $2,556.0 million in working capital at September 30, 2023 as compared to $1,651.3 million at December 31, 2022 and $2,083.6 million at September 30, 2022. Accounts receivable and inventories, combined, as of September 30, 2023 were approximately $958.9 million and $869.3 million higher, respectively, than at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022. Accounts receivable and inventories, combined, at September 30, 2023 were higher than at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 primarily due to higher net sales, favorable pricing and the lingering impact of supply chain constraints experienced in the first half of 2023.

Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 2023 were approximately $357.7 million compared to $270.5 million for the same period in 2022 primarily due to capital investments made in our smart farming and precision agriculture manufacturing capacity. We anticipate capital expenditures for the full year of 2023 will be approximately $450.0 million and will be used primarily to upgrade our system capabilities, improve our factory productivity, and to support the development and enhancement of new and existing products, including investments in smart farming, precision agriculture and digital technologies.

Share Repurchase and Dividends

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we did not purchase any shares directly or enter into any accelerated share repurchase agreements. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining amount authorized to be repurchased under board-approved share repurchase authorizations was approximately $110.0 million, which has no expiration date. In addition, on April 27, 2023, our Board of Directors approved an increase to our quarterly dividend commencing in the second quarter of 2023 by 21% to $0.29 per common share and declared a special variable dividend of $5.00 per common share that was paid during the second quarter of 2023. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company declared and paid cash dividends of $0.29 and $0.24 per common share, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company declared and paid cash dividends of $5.81 and $5.16 per common share, respectively. On October 26, 2023, the Company approved the quarterly dividend of $0.29 per common share to be paid on December 15, 2023, to all stockholders of record as of the close of business November 15, 2023.

COMMITMENTS, OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are party to a number of commitments and other financial arrangements, which may include off-balance sheet arrangements. At September 30, 2023, we had outstanding guarantees issued to our Argentine finance joint venture, AGCO Capital, of approximately $36.6 million. In addition, we had accrued approximately $14.7 million of outstanding guarantees of residual values that may be owed to our finance joint ventures in the United States and Canada due upon expiration of certain eligible operating leases between the finance joint ventures and end users. The maximum potential amount of future payments under the guarantee is approximately $185.0 million. We also sell a majority of our wholesale receivables in North America, Europe and Brazil to our U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian finance joint ventures. At September 30, 2023, we had outstanding designated and non-designated foreign currency contracts with a gross notional amount of approximately $5.3 billion. Refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk-Foreign Currency Risk Management,” as well as to Notes 13, 15 and 19 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of these matters.

Contingencies

As part of routine audits, the Brazilian taxing authorities disallowed deductions relating to the amortization of certain goodwill recognized in connection with a reorganization of our Brazilian operations and the related transfer of certain assets to our Brazilian subsidiaries. Refer to Note 12 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of this matter.

During 2017, we purchased Precision Planting, which provides precision agricultural technology solutions. In 2018, Deere & Company (“Deere”) filed separate complaints in the U.S. District Court of Delaware against us and Precision Planting alleging that certain products of those entities infringed certain patents of Deere. The two complaints subsequently were consolidated into a single case. In July 2022, the case was tried before a jury, which determined that we and Precision Planting had not infringed the Deere patents. Following customary post-trial procedures, the Court entered a judgement in our favor, and Deere appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The parties currently are briefing of the appeal. We have an indemnity right under the purchase agreement related to the acquisition of Precision Planting from its previous owner. Pursuant to that right, the previous owner of Precision Planting currently is responsible for the litigation costs associated with the complaint and is obligated to reimburse us for some or all of the damages in the event of an adverse outcome in the litigation. Refer to Note 19 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or further discussion of this matter.

OUTLOOK

Our net sales are expected to increase in 2023 compared to 2022, resulting from improved pricing, higher sales of high horsepower tractors and combines and increased production volumes. Gross and operating margins are expected to improve from 2022 levels, reflecting the impact of improved pricing, higher sales of high horsepower tractors and combines, increased production volumes and expected improvements in factory productivity. We expect these items to more than offset material cost inflation, increased selling, general, and administrative expenses as well as engineering expenses and other technology investments which are expected to increase during 2023 compared to 2022 to support our product development plans as well as our precision agriculture and digital initiatives.

Our outlook is also based on current assumptions regarding a number of factors including demand, currency stability, pricing and market share gains. If our assumptions are incorrect, or other issues arise or return, such as a worsening of our supply chain, our results of operations will be adversely impacted. Refer to “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for further discussion of the COVID-19 pandemic.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates, including those related to discount and sales incentive allowances, deferred income taxes and uncertain income tax positions, pensions, goodwill, other intangible and long-lived assets, and recoverable indirect taxes. Management bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A description of critical accounting policies and related judgments and estimates that affect the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking, including certain statements set forth under the headings “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Outlook.” Forward-looking statements reflect assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions or beliefs about future events. These statements, which may relate to such matters as earnings, net sales, margins, industry demand, market conditions, commodity prices, farm incomes, foreign currency translation, general economic outlook, dividends, share repurchases, availability of financing, product development and enhancement, factory productivity, production and sales volumes, benefits from cost reduction initiatives, material costs, pricing impacts, tax rates, compliance with loan covenants, capital expenditures, working capital and debt service requirements and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements do not relate strictly to

historical or current facts, and you can identify certain of these statements, but not necessarily all, by the use of the words “anticipate,” “assumed,” “indicate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “predict,” “forecast,” “rely,” “expect,” “continue,” “grow” and other words of similar meaning. Although we believe that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these statements are reasonable in view of the information currently available to us, there can be no assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct.

These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Adverse changes in any of the following factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements:

• general economic and capital market conditions;

• availability of credit to our retail customers;

• the worldwide demand for agricultural products;

• grain stock levels and the levels of new and used field inventories;

• cost of steel and other raw materials;

• energy costs;

• performance and collectability of the accounts receivable originated or owned by AGCO or our finance joint ventures;

• government policies and subsidies;

• uncertainty regarding changes in the international tariff regimes and product embargoes and their impact on the cost of the products that we sell;

• weather conditions;

• interest and foreign currency exchange rates;

• pricing and product actions taken by competitors;

• commodity prices, acreage planted and crop yields;

• farm income, land values, debt levels and access to credit;

• pervasive livestock diseases;

• production disruptions, including due to component and raw material availability;

• production levels and capacity constraints at our facilities, including those resulting from plant expansions and systems upgrades;

• integration of recent and future acquisitions, including the recently announced acquisition of the Trimble ag assets, and the ability to obtain the expected results;

• our expansion plans in emerging markets;

• supply constraints, including energy shortages;

• our cost reduction and control initiatives;

• our research and development efforts;

• dealer and distributor actions;

• regulations affecting privacy and data protection;

• technological difficulties;

• the impact of the COVID-19, or other future pandemics, on product demand and production;

• the occurrence of future cyberattacks, including ransomware attacks; and

• the conflict in Ukraine.

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. Recently suppliers of several key parts and components have not been able to meet our demand and we have had to decrease our production levels. 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. While we have largely have recovered from supply chain disruptions there can be no assurance that there will not be future disruptions.

International relations in the Pacific Rim remain in a state of flux, with, for instance, changes over the last few years in the international tariff regimes between the United States and China in response to various political issues and heightened uncertainty regarding China-Taiwan relations. This region is an important producer of parts and components that are critical to our products, particularly semiconductor chips. Should events in that region or between governments in that region and the countries in which we manufacture products deteriorate, it could significantly adversely impact the availability of parts and components to us, and, correspondingly, our ability to produce products at targeted levels.

We have a wholly-owned subsidiary in Turkey that distributes agricultural equipment and replacement parts. The Turkish economy is highly inflationary. For the nine months ended and as of September 30, 2023, our wholly-owned subsidiary in Turkey had net sales of approximately $292.9 million and total assets of approximately 3.5 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $126.5 million). The monetary assets and liabilities denominated in the Turkish lira were approximately 3.0 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $109.4 million) and approximately 2.3 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $85.4 million), respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollar based on exchange rates as of September 30, 2023.

We 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 U.S. dollars, has broadened

significantly. We have a wholly-owned subsidiary in Argentina that assembles and distributes agricultural equipment and replacement parts within Argentina. We determined that the Argentina economy was highly inflationary during the third quarter of 2018. For the nine months ended and as of September 30, 2023, our wholly-owned subsidiary in Argentina had net sales of approximately $164.6 million and total assets of approximately 82.8 billion pesos (or approximately $240.0 million). The monetary assets of our operations in Argentina denominated in pesos at the official government rate were approximately 25.6 billion pesos (or approximately $74.4 million), inclusive of approximately 14.1 billion pesos (or approximately $41.0 million) in cash and cash equivalents, as of September 30, 2023. The monetary liabilities of our operations in Argentina denominated in pesos at the official government rate were approximately 9.0 billion pesos (or approximately $26.2 million) as of September 30, 2023. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollar based on exchange rates as of September 30, 2023. The Company's finance joint venture in Argentina, AGCO Capital Argentina S.A. ("AGCO Capital") has net monetary assets denominated in pesos at the official government rate of approximately 7.1 billion (or approximately $20.5 million) as of September 30, 2023, of which a majority is cash and cash equivalents. Future impairments and charges are possible in connection with these exposures.

In May 2022, we discovered that we had been subject to a sophisticated 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. We do not believe the cost of remediation to the impacted systems will be material. To date, the cost of those efforts has not been consequential. We maintain cyber insurance coverage for business interruption.

We have a substantial amount of indebtedness, and, as a result, we are subject to certain restrictive covenants and payment obligations that may adversely affect our ability to operate and expand our business.

Any forward-looking statement should be considered in light of such important factors. For additional factors and additional information regarding these factors, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

New factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described above emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors or the extent to which any such factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we disclaim any obligation to update the information contained in such statement to reflect subsequent developments or information except as required by law.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Risk Management

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. As of the third quarter of 2023, there has been no material change in our exposure to market risks.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2023, have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls or the Company’s internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. We will conduct periodic evaluations of our internal controls to enhance, where necessary, our procedures and controls.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are a party to various other legal claims and actions incidental to our business. These items are more fully discussed in Note 19 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The following information supplements our risks and uncertainties disclosed under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that are currently not believed to be significant to our business may also affect our actual results and could harm our business, financial conditions and results of operations. If any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

We may not be able to complete future acquisitions or joint venture transactions or successfully integrate them into our business, which could adversely affect our business or results of operations.

We recently announced the proposed acquisition of the agriculture assets and technologies of Trimble through the formation of a joint venture of which we will own 85%. Closing the transaction is dependent upon obtaining required regulatory approvals (primarily competition and antitrust approvals), obtaining the necessary financing, and fulfilling other closing conditions, all of which, at least in part, are not within our control. In addition, acquisitions and joint venture transactions involve many risks, including the difficulty of determining the appropriate valuation, 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 rate of replacement by the joint venture of those sales, personnel turnover, and the diversion of management's attention from other business matters. In addition, 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. See Note 2 - Acquisitions within our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

There were no purchases of our common stock made by or on behalf of us during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as such terms are defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933).
