Deere & Company, a leading manufacturer in the agricultural and construction equipment industry, reported a significant decrease in its first-quarter earnings for 2025, reflecting ongoing efforts to manage inventory levels amid challenging market conditions.

The company announced a net income of $869 million, a substantial drop from $1,751 million in the same period last year. Total net sales and revenues also saw a 30% decline, amounting to $8.508 billion compared to $12.185 billion in 2024. Despite these declines, Deere remains committed to optimizing inventory and positioning itself for success in an uncertain market.

Key financial metrics indicated a downturn across various segments, with Production & Precision Agriculture and Construction & Forestry experiencing the most significant revenue declines of 37% and 38%, respectively. Financial services, however, showed resilience with an 11% increase in net income, partly due to favorable tax adjustments and strategic joint ventures.

Looking forward, Deere maintains a steady net income forecast between $5.0 billion to $5.5 billion for fiscal 2025, showcasing confidence in its strategic investments and ability to navigate market challenges effectively.
