Latest analysis

Updated Aug 27, 2026

Deere revenue declined 11.7% YoY to $45.7B; tariff headwinds, supply-chain pressure, and demand softness offset production gains.

Deere's FY2025 consolidated revenue fell to $45.7 billion from $51.7 billion in FY2024, a contraction driven by lower equipment demand across agriculture segments and incremental tariff costs that persisted through the year. While Construction & Forestry benefited from higher U.S. shipment volumes and favorable price realization, and production efficiencies improved in CF and SAT, the company faces sustained material cost inflation, ongoing geopolitical supply-chain disruptions, and the need to rationalize manufacturing capacity — signaling a cyclical downturn in core agricultural demand that pricing power alone cannot offset.
