AGCO Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AGCO#NYSE">AGCO</a>) shares slipped after the company reported mixed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43524717/agco-reports-fourth-quarter-and-2024-full-year-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter results and reaffirmed its 2025 outlook</a>.
AGCO reported a 24% year-over-year decline in fourth-quarter net sales to $2.887 billion, missing the consensus of $3.164 billion.
Gross margin slipped 29.9% YoY to $688.7 million and margin contracted by 200 bps YoY to 23.9%. Adjusted operating income slid 30% year over year to $285.3 million and the margin contracted by 80 bps to 9.9%.
Regional Sales: South America -31.6% YoY, Europe/Middle East -16.7% YoY, North America -38.7% YoY and Asia/Pacific/Africa -26.2% YoY.
The company reported regional operating margin performance with EME at 14.4%, North America at 0.7%, South America at 10.8% and APA at 3%.
Adjusted EPS of $1.97, down from $3.78 a year ago, beating the consensus of $1.82.
AGCO's cash provided by operating activities for the fiscal 2024 totaled $689.9 million, down from $1.103 billion a year ago. As of December 31, cash and equivalents stood at $612.7 million.
"In 2025, we will continue to execute our Farmer-First strategy strengthened by the portfolio moves and aggressive cost control actions, including our ongoing restructuring program. We expect these efforts to dampen the impact of further weakening industry demand, helping deliver adjusted operating margins well above levels achieved during prior industry troughs," commented Eric Hansotia, AGCO's chairman, president and CEO.
"We will continue our investments in premium technology, smart farming solutions and enhanced digital capabilities to support our Farmer-First strategy to better position the company for success when the industry recovers while helping to sustainably feed the world," added Hansotia.
2025 Outlook reaffirmed: AGCO continues to expect Adj. EPS of $4.00-$4.50 versus the consensus of $7.37 and net Sales of ~$9.6 billion versus the consensus of $11.96 billion.
The company expects Adjusted operating margins to be approximately 7% &#8211; 7.5%, reflecting the impact of lower sales, lower production volumes, increased cost controls and moderately lower investments in engineering.
Hansotia noted that global agricultural markets face uncertainty due to fluctuating crop prices, high input costs, and geopolitical instability. Equipment demand remains weak despite the rising adoption of precision technology, driven by challenging farm economics.
Price Action: AGCO shares are trading lower by 2.03% at $101.2 premarket at the last check Thursday.

Earnings Scheduled For February 6, 2025

Equipment manufacturer CNH Industrial NV's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNH#NYSE">CNH</a>) earnings are likely to bottom out in 2025, after around two years of equipment sales declines, according to Oppenheimer.
The CNH Industrial Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/6033dff0bb72670001bd2ade/kristen-owen">Analyst Kristen Owen</a> upgraded the rating for CNH Industrial from Perform to Outperform, while establishing a price target of $16.
The CNH Industrial Thesis: While the third-quarter earnings season has boosted investor sentiment in the space, there are "incremental catalysts" in 2025 that could "support a reversion trade for CNH," Owen said in the upgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
After guidance provided by rivals Deere &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>) and AGCO Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AGCO#NYSE">AGCO</a>), CNH Industrial is "coming into 4Q results with the advantage of a lowered bar," the analyst stated.
While the equipment fundamentals remain challenging in 2025, "we are encouraged by the recent improvement in grain prices as a potential tailwind to global farm income," she added.
"Company specific catalysts include potential incremental cost savings programs, May investor day, and potential Construction monetization," Owen further wrote.
CNH Price Action: Shares of CNH Industrial down 0.3% to $13.12 at the time of publication on Tuesday.
