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 (loss) 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, 2019. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year.

The Company cannot predict the ongoing impact of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic due to increased volatility in global economic and political environments, uncertain market demand for its products, supply chain disruptions, possible workforce unavailability, exchange rate and commodity price volatility and availability of financing, and their impact to the Company’s net sales, production volumes, costs and overall financial condition and available funding. The Company may be required to record significant impairment charges in the future with respect to noncurrent assets such as goodwill and other intangible assets and equity method investments, whose fair values may be negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company also may be required to write-down obsolete inventory due to decreased customer demand and sales orders. The Company is closely monitoring the collection of accounts receivable, as well as the operating results of its finance joint ventures around the world. If economic conditions around the world continue to deteriorate, the Company and its finance joint ventures may not collect accounts receivable at expected levels, and the operating results of its finance joint ventures may be negatively impacted, thus negatively impacting the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The Company also is closely assessing its compliance with debt covenants, the recognition of any future insurance recoveries, cash flow hedging forecasts as compared to actual transactions, the fair value of pension assets, accounting for incentive and stock compensation accruals, revenue recognition and discount reserve setting as well as the realization of deferred tax assets in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides temporary accounting relief for contract modifications to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to a new alternative reference rate. ASU 2020-04 can be applied as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 or any date thereafter. ASU 2020-04 generally will no longer be available to apply after December 31, 2022. Interest on U.S. dollar borrowings under the Company's credit facility and its April 2020 amendment is calculated based upon LIBOR. In the event that LIBOR is no longer published, interest will be calculated upon a base rate. The credit facility and its April 2020 amendment provide for an expedited amendment process once a replacement for LIBOR is established (see Note 5). The Company adopted this standard as of March 31, 2020. The adoption did not have a material impact to the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for financial assets held. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods as the adoption of the standard relates to the Company. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2019-04”), which provides, among other things, targeted improvements to certain aspects of accounting for credit losses addressed by ASU 2016-13. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326), Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which clarifies the treatment of expected recoveries for amounts previously written-off on purchased receivables, provides transition relief for troubled debt restructurings and allows for certain disclosure simplifications of accrued interest. The effective dates for both ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-11 are the same as the effective dates for ASU 2016-13. The Company adopted this standard, and its subsequent modifications, as of

Table of Contents

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

(unaudited)

January 1, 2020. The adoption did not have a material impact to the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

New Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” which simplifies various aspects related to accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations and interim calculations, and adding guidance to reduce complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those annual periods using a prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. Depending on the amendment, adoption may be applied on the retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis. The standard will not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

As discussed above, in June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, which requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for financial assets held. 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 applies to the Company’s equity method finance joint ventures who are now 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, will likely impact the results of operations and financial condition of the Company’s finance joint ventures. Therefore, adoption of the standard by the Company’s finance joint ventures will likely impact the Company’s “Investment in affiliates” and “Equity in net earnings of affiliates.” The Company’s finance joint ventures currently are evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13 to their results of operations and financial condition.

2. RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES

From 2014 through 2020, the Company announced and initiated several actions to rationalize employee headcount at various manufacturing facilities and various administrative offices located in Europe, South America, Africa, China and the United States in order to reduce costs in response to softening global market demand and lower production volumes. The aggregate headcount reduction was approximately 4,160 employees between 2014 and 2019. In addition, during 2019, the Company initiated various restructuring activities in an effort to rationalize its grain storage and protein production system operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded severance and related costs associated with further rationalizations in connection with the termination of approximately 320 employees. Restructuring expenses activity during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 is summarized as follows (in millions):

3. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company recorded stock compensation expense as follows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 (in millions):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Cost of goods sold	$	0.5	$	0.3	$	0.9	$	1.3

Stock Incentive Plan

Under the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), up to 10,000,000 shares of AGCO common stock may be issued. As of September 30, 2020, of the 10,000,000 shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, approximately 3,252,617 shares were available for grant, assuming the maximum number of shares are earned related to the performance award grants discussed below. The Plan allows the Company, under the direction of the Board of Directors’ Compensation Committee, to make grants of performance shares, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards to employees, officers and non-employee directors of the Company.

Long-Term Incentive Plan and Related Performance Awards

The weighted average grant-date fair value of performance awards granted under the Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $70.84 and $61.01, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company granted 425,440 performance awards related to varying performance periods. The awards granted assume the maximum target levels of performance are achieved. The compensation expense associated with all awards granted under the Plan is amortized ratably over the vesting or performance period based on the Company’s projected assessment of the level of performance that will be achieved.

Performance award transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were as follows and are presented as if the Company were to achieve its maximum levels of performance under the plan awards:


Shares awarded but not earned at January 1			932,182
Shares awarded			425,440
Shares forfeited			(65,858)
Shares earned			—
Shares awarded but not earned at September 30			1,291,764

As of September 30, 2020, the total compensation cost related to unearned performance awards not yet recognized, assuming the Company’s current projected assessment of the level of performance that will be achieved, was approximately $28.0 million, and the weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately two years. The compensation cost not yet recognized could be higher or lower based on actual achieved levels of performance.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company granted 95,593 restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards. These awards entitle the participant to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each RSU granted and vest one-third per year over a three-year requisite service period, subject to adjustment in certain cases based on performance metric relative to the Company's peer group, commencing in 2020. The compensation expense associated with these awards is being amortized ratably over the requisite service period for the awards that are expected to vest. The weighted average grant-date fair value of the RSUs granted under the Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $70.83 and $61.01, respectively. RSU transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were as follows:


RSUs awarded but not vested at January 1			396,529
RSUs awarded			95,593
RSUs forfeited			(36,753)
RSUs vested			(116,882)
RSUs awarded but not vested at September 30			338,487

As of September 30, 2020, the total compensation cost related to the unvested RSUs not yet recognized was approximately $9.7 million, and the weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately one and one-half years.

Stock-Settled Appreciation Rights

The compensation expense associated with the stock-settled appreciation rights (“SSARs”) is amortized ratably over the requisite service period for the awards that are expected to vest. The Company estimates the fair value of the grants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. SSAR transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were as follows:


SSARs outstanding at January 1			759,675
SSARs granted			187,100
SSARs exercised			(30,225)
SSARs canceled or forfeited			(35,061)
SSARs outstanding at September 30			881,489

As of September 30, 2020, the total compensation cost related to the unvested SSARs not yet recognized was approximately $4.2 million, and the weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately two and one-half years.

Director Restricted Stock Grants

The Plan provides for annual restricted stock grants of the Company’s common stock to all non-employee directors. The 2020 grant was made on April 30, 2020 and equated to 25,542 shares of common stock, of which 19,862 shares of common stock were issued after shares were withheld for taxes. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of approximately $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 associated with these grants.

4. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are summarized as follows (in millions):


	North America		South America		Europe/Middle East		Asia/Pacific/Africa		Consolidated
Balance as of December 31, 2019	$	606.0	$	112.2	$	463.3	$	116.8	$	1,298.3
Acquisition	7.2		—		—		—		7.2
Impairment charge	(20.0)		—		—		—		(20.0)
Foreign currency translation	(0.1)		(31.5)		16.7		2.7		(12.2)
Balance as of September 30, 2020	$	593.1	$	80.7	$	480.0	$	119.5	$	1,273.3

On September 10, 2020, the Company acquired 151 Research, Inc., a company specializing in agricultural technology, for approximately $2.8 million. The Company agreed to further contingent consideration related to the acquisition, and therefore recorded a liability of approximately $4.4 million as of September 30, 2020 to reflect estimated achievement of agreed upon targets. The acquisition did not have a material impact on the Company.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if indications of impairment exist. The Company conducts its annual impairment analyses as of October 1 each fiscal year. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global economy as a whole. Based on current macroeconomic conditions, the Company assessed its goodwill and other intangible assets for indications of impairment as of March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the Company concluded there were indicators of impairment during the three months ended June 30, 2020 related to one of its smaller reporting units, which is a 50%-owned tillage and seeding equipment joint venture. The Company consolidates the reporting unit as it was determined to be the primary beneficiary of the joint venture. Deteriorating market conditions for the products the joint venture sells were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter, greater than initially expected. As a result, updated strategic reviews with revised forecasts indicated an impairment of the entire goodwill balance of this reporting unit was necessary as of June 30, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, an impairment charge of approximately $20.0 million was recorded as "Goodwill impairment charge" within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, with an offsetting benefit of approximately $10.0 million included within "Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests."

Credit Facility

In October 2018, the Company entered into a multi-currency revolving credit facility of $800.0 million. The maturity date of the credit facility is October 17, 2023. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the credit facility, at the Company’s option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating, or (2) the base rate, which is equal to the higher of (i) the administrative agent’s base lending rate for the applicable currency, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) one-month LIBOR for loans denominated in U.S. dollars plus 1.0%, plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.875% based on the Company’s credit rating. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had the ability to borrow approximately $800.0 million under the revolving credit facility.

On April 9, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to its $800.0 million multi-currency revolving credit facility to include incremental term loans (“2020 term loans”) that allow the Company to borrow an aggregate principal amount of €235.0 million and $267.5 million, respectively (or an aggregate of approximately $542.4 million as of September 30, 2020). Amounts can be drawn incrementally at any time prior to maturity, but must be drawn down proportionately. Amounts drawn must be in a minimum principal amount of $100.0 million and integral multiples of $50.0 million in excess thereof. Once amounts have been repaid, those amounts are not permitted to be re-drawn. The maturity date of the 2020 term loans is April 8, 2022. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the 2020 term loans, at the Company's option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin based on the Company's credit rating ranging from 1.125% to 2.125% until April 8, 2021 and ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% thereafter, or (2) the base rate, which is equal to the higher of (i) the administrative agent’s base lending rate for the applicable currency, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) one-month LIBOR for loans denominated in U.S. dollars plus 1.0%, plus a margin based on the Company’s credit rating ranging from 0.125% to 1.375% until April 8, 2021 and ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% thereafter. The 2020 term loans contain covenants restricting, among other things, the incurrence of indebtedness and the making of certain payments, including dividends. The Company also has to fulfill financial covenants with respect to a total debt to EBITDA ratio and an interest coverage ratio. On April 15, 2020, the Company borrowed €117.5 million and $133.8 million (or an aggregate of approximately $271.2 million as of September 30, 2020) of 2020 term loans. The Company simultaneously repaid €100.0 million (or approximately $108.7 million) of its revolving credit facility from the borrowings received. There were no other borrowings on the 2020 term loans subsequent to the initial borrowings in April 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had the ability to borrow approximately $271.2 million of 2020 term loans.

Interest on U.S. dollar borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility and the 2020 term loans is calculated based upon LIBOR. In the event that LIBOR is no longer published, interest will be calculated upon a base rate. The revolving credit facility and the 2020 term loans also provide for an expedited amendment process once a replacement for LIBOR is established.

1.002% Senior Term Loan Due 2025

In December 2018, the Company entered into a term loan with the European Investment Bank ("EIB"), which provided the Company with the ability to borrow up to €250.0 million. The €250.0 million (or approximately $292.4 million as of September 30, 2020) of funding was received on January 25, 2019 with a maturity date of January 24, 2025. The Company is permitted to prepay the term loan before its maturity date. Interest is payable on the term loan at 1.002% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears.

Senior Term Loans Due Between 2021 and 2028

In October 2016, the Company borrowed an aggregate amount of €375.0 million through a group of seven related term loan agreements, and in August 2018, the Company borrowed an additional aggregate amount of €338.0 million through a group of another seven related term loan agreements. Of the 2016 term loans, an aggregate amount of €56.0 million (or approximately $61.1 million) was repaid upon maturity of two term loan agreements in October 2019.

In aggregate, the Company has indebtedness of €657.0 million (or approximately $768.4 million as of September 30, 2020) through this group of twelve related term loan agreements. The provisions of the term loan agreements are substantially identical, with the exception of interest rate terms and maturities. The Company is permitted to prepay the term loans before their maturity dates. For the term loans with a fixed interest rate, interest is payable in arrears on an annual basis, with interest rates ranging from 0.70% to 2.26% and a maturity date between August 2021 and August 2028. For the term loans with a floating interest rate, interest is payable in arrears on a semi-annual basis, with interest rates based on the EURIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.70% to 1.25% and a maturity date between August 2021 and August 2025.

Short-Term Borrowings

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had short-term borrowings due within one year of approximately $47.7 million and $150.5 million, respectively.

Standby Letters of Credit and Similar Instruments

The Company has arrangements with various banks to issue standby letters of credit or similar instruments, which guarantee the Company’s obligations for the purchase or sale of certain inventories and for potential claims exposure for insurance coverage. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, outstanding letters of credit totaled approximately $14.4 million and $13.9 million, respectively.

6. 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 $93.7 million and $142.3 million, respectively, of VAT tax credits, net of reserves, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

7. INVENTORIES

Inventories at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows (in millions):

Balance at September 30	$	438.4	$	359.4	$	438.4	$	359.4

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 $356.4 million and $331.9 million of warranty reserves are included in “Accrued expenses” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Approximately $82.0 million and $60.9 million of warranty reserves are included in “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

The Company recognizes 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 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.”

9. 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 using the treasury stock method when 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, 2020 and 2019 is as follows (in millions, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Basic net income per share:
Net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	157.3	$	7.6	$	291.7	$	213.5
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	74.9		76.1		75.0		76.4
Basic net income per share attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	2.10	$	0.10	$	3.89	$	2.79
Diluted net income per share:
Net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	157.3	$	7.6	$	291.7	$	213.5
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	74.9		76.1		75.0		76.4
Dilutive SSARs, performance share awards and RSUs	0.5		0.6		0.5		0.7
Weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding for purposes of computing diluted net income per share	75.4		76.7		75.5		77.1
Diluted net income per share attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	2.09	$	0.10	$	3.86	$	2.77

SSARs to purchase approximately 0.5 million and 0.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and approximately 0.2 million and 0.4 million shares of the Company's common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, were outstanding but not included in the calculation of weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding because they had an antidilutive impact.

10. INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $248.0 million and $210.7 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019 include certain indirect favorable effects that relate to other tax jurisdictions of approximately $55.0 million and $44.9 million, respectively. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $99.0 million and $51.0 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. The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $37.5 million and $28.4 million, respectively. Generally, tax years 2014 through 2019 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, 2020, a number of income tax examinations in foreign jurisdictions are ongoing.

The Company maintains a valuation allowance to fully reserve against its net deferred tax assets in the United States, Brazil and certain other 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. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company recorded a non-cash deferred income tax charge of approximately $53.7 million to establish a valuation allowance against its Brazilian net deferred income tax assets. 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.

On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act (the “Act”) was enacted in the United States in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to, among other things, provide tax relief to businesses. Tax provisions of the Act include the deferral of certain payroll taxes, relief for retaining employees and other provisions. Other governments around the world have also enacted similar measures and may enact further measures in the future. To date, the Act and other similar worldwide measures have not had a material impact to the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

11. 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.

During 2020 and 2019, the Company designated 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 $196.3 million and $332.7 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Accumulated derivative net gains as of September 30, 2020	$	3.0	$	0.4	$	2.6

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.

In January 2018, the Company entered into a 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 19, 2021. At maturity of the cross currency swap contract, the Company will deliver the notional amount of approximately €245.7 million (or approximately $287.4 million as of September 30, 2020) 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 maturity of the cross currency swap.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company designated €110.0 million of its multi-currency revolving credit facility with a maturity date of October 17, 2023 as a hedge of its net investment in foreign operations to offset foreign currency translation gains or losses on the net investment. In May 2020, the Company repaid the designated amount outstanding under its multi-currency revolving credit facility and the foreign currency denominated debt was de-designated as a net investment hedge.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company designated €190.0 million of its multi-currency revolving credit facility as a hedge of its net investment in foreign operations to offset foreign currency translation gains or losses on the net investment. During September 2019, the Company repaid the designated amount outstanding under its multi-currency revolving credit facility and the foreign currency denominated debt was de-designated as a net investment hedge.

The following table summarizes the notional values of the instrument designated as a net investment hedge (in millions):

Derivative Transactions Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

During 2020 and 2019, the Company entered into foreign currency contracts to economically hedge receivables and payables on the Company and its subsidiaries’ balance sheets that are denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency. These contracts were 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding foreign currency contracts with a notional amount of approximately $2,795.5 million and $2,800.3 million, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company did not purchase any shares directly or enter into any accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreements as a result of its suspension of share repurchases until business visibility improves. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company entered into ASR agreements with a financial institution to repurchase an aggregate of $55.0 million of shares of its common stock. The Company received approximately 970,141 shares during the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to the ASR agreements. The specific number of shares the Company ultimately repurchased was determined at the completion of the term of the ASR agreements based on the daily volume-weighted average share price of the Company’s common stock less an agreed upon discount. All shares received under the ASR agreements 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.

As of September 30, 2020, the remaining amount authorized to be repurchased under board-approved share repurchase authorizations was approximately $245.0 million, which has no expiration date.

13. 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. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the cash received from receivables sold under the U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian accounts receivable sales agreements was approximately $1.5 billion and $1.6 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 LIBOR plus a margin on any non-interest bearing accounts receivable outstanding and sold under the accounts receivable sales agreements. These fees are reflected within losses on the sales of receivables included within “Other expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not service the receivables after the sales occur 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.

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 $6.1 million and $18.5 million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. 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 $10.6 million and $30.3 million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, these finance joint ventures had approximately $67.5 million and $104.3 million, respectively, of outstanding accounts receivable associated with these arrangements. The Company reviewed its accounting for these arrangements and determined that these arrangements 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. The Company reviewed the sale of such receivables and determined that these arrangements should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

15. 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 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 11 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are summarized below (in millions):


	As of September 30, 2020
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Derivative assets	$	—	$	38.6	$	—	$	38.6
Derivative liabilities	—		11.9		—		11.9


	As of December 31, 2019
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Derivative assets	$	—	$	39.3	$	—	$	39.3
Derivative liabilities	—		15.0		—		15.0

The carrying amounts of long-term debt under the Company’s senior term loan due 2022, 1.002% senior term loan due 2025 and senior term loans due between 2021 and 2028 approximate fair value based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and average maturities. See Note 5 for additional information on the Company’s long-term debt.

16. RELATED PARTIES

The Company has a minority equity interest in Tractors and Farm Equipment Limited (“TAFE”), which manufactures and sells Massey Ferguson-branded equipment primarily in India, and also supplies tractors and components to the Company for sale in other markets. On October 15, 2020, TAFE repurchased 461,000 shares of its common stock from the Company for approximately $33.9 million, resulting in an approximate remaining 20.7% ownership interest. Mallika Srinivasan, who is the Chairman and Managing Director of TAFE, is currently a member of the Company’s Board of Directors.

17. 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,

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

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, 2020, the Company has outstanding guarantees of indebtedness owed to third parties of approximately $18.4 million, primarily related to dealer and end-user financing of equipment. Such guarantees generally obligate the Company to repay outstanding finance obligations owed to financial institutions if dealers or end users default on such loans through 2026. Losses under such guarantees historically have been insignificant. In addition, the Company generally would expect to be able to recover a significant portion of the amounts paid under such guarantees from the sale of the underlying financed farm equipment, as the fair value of such equipment is expected to be sufficient to offset a substantial portion of the amounts paid. 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, 2020, the Company had accrued approximately $23.7 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 the guarantees is approximately $66.8 million.

(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.

Other

At September 30, 2020, the Company had outstanding designated and non-designated foreign exchange contracts with a gross notional amount of approximately $2,991.8 million. The outstanding contracts as of September 30, 2020 range in maturity through December 2020 (see Note 11).

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 reviewed the sale of such receivables and determined that these facilities should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

Contingencies

In August 2008, 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, 2020, not including interest and penalties, was approximately 131.5 million Brazilian reais (or approximately $23.3 million). The amount ultimately in dispute will be significantly greater because of interest and penalties. The Company has been advised by its legal and tax advisors that its position with respect to the deductions is allowable under the tax laws of Brazil. The Company is contesting the disallowance and believes that it is not likely that the assessment, interest or penalties will be required to be paid. However, the ultimate outcome will not be determined until the Brazilian tax appeal process is complete, which could take several years.

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 nature of the agricultural industry. Sales of our equipment are affected by, among other things, changes in net cash 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.

The coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has created significant volatility in the global economy and has led to substantially reduced economic activity, employment disruptions and supply chain constraints and delays. In most areas, our business has been deemed essential, thereby allowing us to maintain operations. However, production was severely impacted by component availability, particularly during late March and throughout April, and therefore net sales levels were directly impacted. The affected plants, primarily in Europe and South America, all resumed production in late April. All of our production facilities are currently operational, with the exception of one North American facility which suspended operations in October 2020. During the third quarter, we were able to ramp up production and recover from supply chain disruptions experienced in the second quarter. The ability to maintain full-time production remains uncertain for the foreseeable future due to government restrictions, potential supply chain constraints, workforce limitations and safety equipment availability. We have enacted cost saving measures and are managing our cash flows and capital deployment to respond to the volatile environment.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, we generated net income of approximately $157.3 million, or $2.09 per share, compared to approximately $7.6 million, or $0.10 per share, for the same period in 2019. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was impacted by a non-cash adjustment to establish a valuation allowance against our Brazilian net deferred tax assets. For the first nine months ended September 30, 2020, we generated net income of approximately $291.7 million, or $3.86 per share, compared to approximately $213.5 million, or $2.77 per share, for the same period in 2019.

Net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2020 were approximately $2,497.5 million, which were approximately 18.4% higher than the same period in 2019. This increase was primarily the result of increased production volumes as we recovered from supply chain disruptions caused by COVID-19 that led to the suspension of operations at certain production facilities in Europe and South America in the first half of 2020. Regionally, net sales, excluding currency translation impacts, were higher in all regions for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 2019.

Net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were approximately $6,432.6 million, which were approximately 1.5% lower than the same period in 2019. This decrease was primarily the result of reduced production volumes caused by component availability and other impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first half of the year, as well as the negative impact of currency translation. Regionally, net sales, excluding negative currency translation impacts, were higher in our South American, North American and Asia/Pacific/Africa (“APA”) regions for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. These increases were offset by a decline in net sales in our Europe/Middle East (“EME”) region.

Income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $224.0 million compared to approximately $105.9 million for the same period in 2019. This increase was primarily the result of higher net sales and production volumes, cost control initiatives, lower material costs and a favorable sales mix compared to the same period in 2019. Income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $421.7 million compared to approximately $397.9 million for the same period in 2019. This increase was primarily the result of improved margins driven by lower material costs and expense control initiatives, partially offset by lower sales and production volumes.

Regionally, income from operations in our EME region increased for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to higher net sales and production volumes, a richer sales mix and expense reductions. Production and sales volumes increased substantially in the third quarter in Europe, partially offsetting significant

(continued)

declines experienced in the second quarter due to production disruptions in our European operations. Income from operations at EME decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to lower net sales and production volumes, partially offset by a reduction in operating expenses. In our North American region, income from operations increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. These increases were primarily due to higher net sales, a favorable sales mix and cost control initiatives. In our South American region, income from operations increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. These increases reflect higher net sales and production volumes, a favorable product mix and cost containment efforts, partially offset by negative currency impacts. In our APA region, income from operations increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019, primarily due to higher net sales, a favorable sales mix and expense control efforts.

Industry Market Conditions

The COVID-19 pandemic is projected to have minimal impact on global crop production. Most farm operations, which generally have been deemed essential (including our business), are operating at normal levels. The consumption of grain for food, fuel and livestock feed was negatively impacted by the economic constraints caused by the pandemic in the first half of the year, but global grain consumption is recovering, consistent with improving economic activities and increased grain exports to China. Following reduced forecasts for ending grain inventories, soft commodity prices have risen in the third quarter supporting positive farm economics. Future demand for agricultural equipment will be influenced by farm income, which is a function of commodity and protein prices, crop yields and government support. Most of our dealers also have been deemed essential businesses. These dealers are following government and health organization safety guidance, while continuing to provide sales and service to equipment users, especially farmers. The available digital tools and connected support abilities incorporated into several of our products have allowed the dealers to remotely service many customer machines while maintaining appropriate social distancing protocols. These measures have helped customers continue the essential work of promoting food security and providing critical infrastructure.

In North America, industry unit retail sales of utility tractors for the first nine months of 2020 increased approximately 7% compared to the same period in 2019. Industry unit retail sales of combines for the first nine months of 2020 increased slightly by 1% compared to the first nine months of 2019. Retail sales of low horsepower tractors also increased in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year period, while retail sales of high horsepower tractors were lower comparatively. The U.S. COVID-19 aid package for U.S. farmers and livestock producers could offset some of the impact of lower commodity prices, which, together with cautious farmer sentiment, has pressured industry demand.

In Western Europe, industry unit retail sales of tractors decreased approximately 5% compared to the same period in 2019. Industry unit retail sales of combines for the first nine months of 2020 decreased approximately 4% compared to the first nine months of 2019. During the first nine months of 2020, industry sales were weakest in the markets of the United Kingdom, France and Spain, partially offset by growth in Germany compared to the same period in 2019. Industry sales declined due largely to production constraints caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the negative impact of lower wheat production across most of Western Europe was mostly offset by stronger grain export demand and supportive wheat prices. European dairy and livestock fundamentals have stabilized after weakening earlier in 2020.

In South America, industry unit retail sales of tractors for the first nine months of 2020 increased approximately 9% compared to the same period in 2019. Industry unit retail sales of combines for the first nine months of 2020 increased approximately 17% compared to the first nine months of 2019. Industry retail sales increased in Brazil and Argentina compared to the prior year, partially offset by weaker demand in most other South American markets. Robust crop production in Brazil and Argentina, as well as favorable exchange rates, are both supporting positive economics for farmers.

STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were approximately $2,497.5 million compared to approximately $2,109.4 million for the same period in 2019. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were approximately $6,432.6 million compared to approximately $6,527.8 million for the same period in 2019. The following tables set forth, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the impacts to net sales of currency translation by geographical segment (in millions, except percentages):

Regionally, net sales in North America increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. These increases were primarily a result of higher net sales of high horsepower tractors, hay equipment and replacement parts, partially offset by lower net sales of grain and protein equipment. In our EME region, net sales were higher during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and lower during and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to lost production and supply chain constraints caused by the impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in net sales declines in virtually all major markets in the region. The increase during the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to increased production volumes as we recovered from previous supply chain disruptions and low production output. Net sales in South America increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. Net sales increased in Brazil and Argentina, partially offset by decreased net sales in other South American markets. In our APA region, net sales increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019, primarily driven by net sales increases in Australia and China, partially offset by net sales declines in Africa and Southeast Asia.

We estimate worldwide average price increases were approximately 1.3% and 0.7%, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same prior year periods. Consolidated net sales of tractors and combines, which combined comprised approximately 62.0% and 57.9% of our net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, increased approximately 26.0% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019 and decreased approximately 2.6% compared to the and nine months ended September 30, 2019. Unit sales of tractors and combines increased approximately 11.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and decreased approximately 4.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. 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.

(1) Rounding may impact the summation of amounts.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the increase was primarily due to the benefits of improved pricing and material costs, partially offset by the impact of lower production volumes.

Global production hours decreased approximately 6.8% in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and increased approximately 10.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to the suspension of production in our European and South American production sites in late March and throughout April due to component supply disruptions and government-mandated closures of facilities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase during the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to increased production volumes as we recovered from these supply disruptions and facility closures in the first half of 2020. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to be unpredictable, and a range of factors could impact our future sales, including additional production and workforce constraints, government mandates and changing industry conditions impacted by commodity prices, farmer sentiment and the other factors that we discuss below under “Risk Factors.” We recently suspended operations at a production facility in the U.S. due to a rise in COVID-19 infection rates.

We recorded approximately $0.5 million and $0.9 million of stock compensation expense within cost of goods sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $0.3 million and $1.3 million for the comparable periods in 2019. See below and refer to Note 3 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 lower for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease was as a result of increased net sales during the third quarter compared to 2019. The reduction in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was achieved through actions such as delayed merit compensation increases, reduced travel

expenses and the temporary furloughing of certain employees. We recorded approximately $13.7 million and $26.3 million of stock compensation expense within SG&A expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $7.8 million and $32.0 million during the same periods in 2019. Refer to Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Engineering expenses, as a percentage of net sales, decreased for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $20.0 million related to a tillage and seeding equipment joint venture in which we own a 50% interest. The impairment charge was recorded as “Goodwill impairment charge” within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, with an offsetting benefit of approximately $10.0 million included within “Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.” Refer to Note 4 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Our goodwill impairment analysis conducted as of October 1, 2019 indicated that the carrying value of net assets of our grain storage and production systems business in Europe/Middle East was in excess of the fair value of the reporting unit, and therefore, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $173.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 to write down the reporting unit to its indicated fair value. The impairment charge was a substantial portion of the reporting unit’s goodwill balance as of October 1, 2019. If weak market conditions persist in the Europe/Middle East market for grain storage equipment, or if our planned strategies to improve the business are not successful, we may incur an additional impairment charge related to this reporting unit in the future.

The restructuring expenses of approximately $0.8 million and $5.4 million recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, primarily related to severance and related costs associated with the rationalization of certain manufacturing operations and administrative offices located in the United States, Europe and South America. Refer to Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Interest expense, net was approximately $3.6 million and $13.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $6.4 million and $15.9 million for the comparable periods in 2019. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information on our available funding.

Other expense, net was approximately $15.3 million and $37.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $20.8 million and $47.0 million for the comparable periods in 2019. 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 $6.1 million and $18.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $10.6 million and $30.3 million for the comparable periods in 2019. The decreases in losses was primarily as a result of lower interest rates in 2020 as compared to 2019.

We recorded an income tax provision of approximately $57.2 million and $117.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $83.2 million and $155.8 million for the comparable periods in 2019. During the third quarter of 2019, we recorded a non-cash adjustment to establish a valuation allowance against our Brazilian net deferred income tax assets of approximately $53.7 million. 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 fully reserve against our net deferred tax assets in the United States, Brazil and certain other foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 include the impact of valuation allowances against certain of our Brazilian and U.S. net deferred tax assets and, accordingly, we recorded no tax benefit against our Brazilian and U.S. losses.

Equity in net earnings of affiliates, which is primarily comprised of income from our AGCO Finance joint ventures, was approximately $10.2 million and $31.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to approximately $10.8 million and $33.2 million for the comparable periods in 2019, primarily due to lower net earnings from our AGCO Finance joint ventures. Refer to “Finance Joint Ventures” for further information regarding our finance joint ventures and their results of operations.

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 us 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 joint ventures, primarily through lines of credit. We do not guarantee the debt obligations of the joint ventures.

As of September 30, 2020, our capital investment in the finance joint ventures, which is included in “Investment in affiliates” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was approximately $363.4 million compared to $339.0 million as of December 31, 2019. The total finance portfolio in our finance joint ventures was approximately $10.0 billion and $9.6 billion as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The total finance portfolio as of September 30, 2020 included approximately $8.3 billion of retail receivables and $1.7 billion of wholesale receivables from our dealers. The total finance portfolio as of December 31, 2019 included approximately $7.7 billion of retail receivables and $1.9 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 2020, we made a total of approximately $1.9 million of additional investments in our finance joint venture in the Netherlands. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 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 $31.5 million compared to approximately $32.5 million for the same period in 2019.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our financing requirements 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. We believe that the following facilities, together with 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, 2020
Credit facility, expires 2023	$	271.2
1.002% Senior term loan due 2025	292.4
Senior term loan due 2022	175.4
Senior term loans due between 2021 and 2028	768.4
Other long-term debt	10.9

On April 9, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our $800.0 million multi-currency revolving credit facility to include incremental term loans (“2020 term loans”) that allow us to borrow an aggregate principal amount of €235.0 million and $267.5 million, respectively (or an aggregate of approximately $542.4 million as of September 30, 2020). Amounts can be drawn incrementally at any time prior to maturity, but must be drawn down proportionately. Amounts drawn must be in a minimum principal amount of $100.0 million and integral multiples of $50.0 million in excess thereof. Once amounts have been repaid, those amounts are not permitted to be re-drawn. The maturity date of the 2020 term loans is April 8, 2022. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the 2020 term loans, at our option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit rating ranging from 1.125% to 2.125% until April 8, 2021 and ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% thereafter, or (2) the base rate, which is equal to the higher of (i) the administrative agent’s base lending rate for the applicable currency, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) one-month LIBOR for loans denominated in U.S. dollars plus 1.0%, plus a margin based on our credit rating ranging from 0.125% to 1.375% until April 8, 2021 and ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% thereafter. On April 15, 2020, we borrowed €117.5 million and $133.8 million (or an aggregate of approximately $271.2 million as of September 30, 2020) of 2020 term loans. We simultaneously repaid €100.0 million (or approximately $108.7 million) of our revolving credit facility from the borrowings received. There were no other borrowings on the 2020 term loans subsequent to the initial borrowings in April 2020. As of September 30, 2020, we had the ability to borrow approximately $271.2 million of 2020 term loans. Refer to Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our current facilities.

In October 2018, we entered into a multi-currency revolving credit facility of $800.0 million. The maturity date of the credit facility is October 17, 2023. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the credit facility, at our option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on our credit rating, or (2) the base rate, which is equal to the higher of (i) the administrative agent’s base lending rate for the applicable currency, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) one-month LIBOR for loans denominated in U.S. dollars plus 1.0%, plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.875% based on

our credit rating. As of September 30, 2020, we had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and the ability to borrow is approximately $800.0 million under the revolving credit facility.

In December 2018, we entered into a term loan agreement with the European Investment Bank (“EIB”), which provided us with the ability to borrow up to €250.0 million. The €250.0 million (or approximately $292.4 million as of September 30, 2020) of funding was received on January 25, 2019 with a maturity date of January 24, 2025. We are permitted to prepay the term loan before its maturity date. Interest is payable on the term loan at 1.002% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears.

In October 2018, we entered into a term loan agreement with Rabobank in the amount of €150.0 million (or approximately $175.4 million as of September 30, 2020). We are permitted to prepay the term loan before its maturity date on October 28, 2022. Interest is payable on the term loan quarterly in arrears at an annual rate, equal to the EURIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on our credit rating.

In October 2016, we borrowed an aggregate amount of €375.0 million through a group of seven related term loan agreements. These agreements had maturities ranging from October 2019 to October 2026. In October 2019, we repaid an aggregate amount of €56.0 million (or approximately $61.1 million) of two of these term loans. In August 2018, we borrowed an additional aggregate amount of indebtedness of €338.0 million through a group of another seven related term loan agreements. Proceeds from the borrowings were used to repay borrowings under our former revolving credit facility. The provisions of the term loan agreements are identical in nature with the exception of interest rate terms and maturities. In aggregate, as of September 30, 2020 we have indebtedness of approximately €657.0 million (or approximately $768.4 million) under a total group of twelve term loan agreements with remaining maturities ranging from August 2021 to August 2028.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had short-term borrowings due within one year of approximately $47.7 million and $150.5 million, respectively.

Interest on U.S. dollar borrowings under our credit facility and the 2020 term loans is calculated based upon LIBOR. In the event that LIBOR is no longer published, interest will be calculated upon a base rate. The credit facility and 2020 term loans also provide for an expedited amendment process once a replacement for LIBOR is established.

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.

Our available funding as of September 30, 2020 was approximately $1,574.5 million, consisting of unrestricted cash of approximately $503.3 million and available borrowing capacity of approximately $1,071.2 million under our current credit facility. The addition of the new term loan facility on April 9, 2020 increased our borrowing capacity by approximately $542.4 million as of September 30, 2020. Our available funding stabilized during the course of 2020, and we are confident that we have sufficient available funding provided the length and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations is not more significant than currently estimated. While we currently expect to maintain the payment of our quarterly dividend, we have suspended share repurchases until business visibility improves.

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 and have the effect of reducing accounts receivable and short-term liabilities by the same amount. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the cash received from receivables sold under the U.S., Canadian, European and Brazilian accounts receivable sales agreements was approximately $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion, 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, these finance joint ventures had approximately $67.5 million and $104.3 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. When vendors receive early payments they receive discounted amounts and we then pay the financial institutions the face amounts of the invoices on the payment due dates. We do not reimburse vendors for any costs they incur for participation in the programs. Amounts owed to the financial institutions are presented as "Accounts payable" in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. 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.

Our debt to capitalization ratio, which is total indebtedness divided by the sum of total indebtedness and stockholders’ equity, was 35.4% and 30.4% at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Cash Flows

Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $224.1 million for the first nine months of 2020 compared to cash flows used in operating activities of approximately $80.2 million for the same period in 2019. Our normal seasonal requirements for working capital, as well as strong cash flow generation resulting from our recovery to normalized production volumes, resulted in a positive cash flow from operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Our focus on reducing company inventory levels resulted in a decrease of inventory of approximately $254.2 million as compared to the same period in 2019, which also benefited operating cash flow.

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 $1,087.2 million in working capital at September 30, 2020 as compared to $844.6 million at December 31, 2019 and $928.9 million at September 30, 2019. Accounts receivable and inventories, combined, at September 30, 2020 were $168.0 million higher and $182.2 million lower than at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, respectively. Accounts receivable and inventories, combined, at September 30, 2020 were lower than September 30, 2019 primarily due to lower sales and production levels, as well as negative currency translation.

Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 2020 were $183.1 million compared to $188.1 million for the same period in 2019. We anticipate capital expenditures for the full year of 2020 will be approximately $250.0 million and will be used primarily to support the development and enhancement of new and existing products, upgrade our system capabilities and improve our factory productivity.

Share Repurchase Program

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, we did not purchase any shares directly or enter into any accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreements as a result of our suspension of share repurchases until business visibility improves. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we entered into ASR agreements with a financial institution to repurchase an aggregate of $55.0 million of shares of our common stock. We received approximately 970,141 shares during the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to the ASR agreements. The specific number of shares we ultimately repurchased was determined at the completion of the term of the ASR agreements based on the daily volume-weighted average share price of our common stock less an agreed upon discount. All shares received under the ASR agreements 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 our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

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, 2020, we guaranteed indebtedness owed to third parties of approximately $18.4 million, primarily related to dealer and end-user financing of equipment. In addition, we had accrued approximately $23.7 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 $66.8 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, 2020, we had outstanding designated and non-designated foreign currency contracts with a gross notional amount of approximately $3.0 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 11, 13 and 18 to 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 18 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of these matters.

OUTLOOK

Global industry demand for farm equipment is expected to be relatively flat in 2020 compared to 2019 with improved demand in our North American and South American regions offsetting lower demand in our EME region. Our net sales are expected to marginally decline in 2020 compared to 2019, reflecting relatively flat global market demand and negative foreign currency translation, partially offset by modest positive pricing impacts. Operating margins, excluding goodwill impairment charges in both 2020 and 2019, are expected to improve compared to 2019 levels due to the benefits of positive pricing, favorable material costs and expense control initiatives in light of the pandemic, offset by lower production levels.

Although not contemplated in the above outlook, the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to negatively impact our operations. Additional factory closures or other production constraints as a result of government mandates, supply chain disruptions or other factors could significantly negatively impact our net sales and earnings. In addition, a considerable amount of uncertainty exists for the balance of 2020 relating to industry demand and other macroeconomic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our focus is on employee safety, serving customers and operating as effectively as possible under these challenging conditions. Refer to “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II of this Form 10-Q 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, 2019.

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.

• our research and development efforts;

• dealer and distributor actions;

• regulations affecting privacy and data protection;

• technological difficulties; and

• the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

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 II of this Form 10-Q and “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

We have joint ventures in the Netherlands and Russia with an entity that currently is operating under a time-limited general license from the U.S. Department of the Treasury authorizing the maintenance or wind down of operations and existing contracts. In the event that the license expires without further relief being granted or without other authorization from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, we may no longer be able to continue the joint ventures’ commercial operations and we would be required to assess the fair value of certain assets related to the joint ventures for potential impairment.

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, 2019. As of the third quarter of 2020, 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, 2020, 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, 2020 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 18 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The following disclosure supplements and updates the discussion of certain risks and uncertainties previously disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. These risks and uncertainties, along with those previously disclosed, could materially adversely affect our business or financial results. Additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impact our business, financial condition or financial results.

Our business will be adversely impacted if the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread widely or otherwise impacts our manufacturing and supply chain or demand for our products.

The COVID-19 pandemic has, and we expect may continue to, negatively impact our business, and further impacts will depend on future developments, which are unpredictable. The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility in the global economy and has led to substantially reduced economic activity, employment disruptions, supply chain constraints and delays, and declines in consumer demand. The duration of the pandemic is also unknown. Measures taken by governments around the world, as well as businesses, including us, and the general public in order to limit the spread of COVID-19 will continue to negatively impact our business and overall financial condition, including but not limited to the following:

•Our industry may experience further declines in global market demand, thus reducing sales of our products.

•The COVID-19 pandemic is projected to have minimal impact on global crop production. Most farm operations, which generally have been deemed essential, are working to relatively normal levels. However, the consumption of grain for food, fuel (including ethanol) and livestock feed is being negatively impacted by economic constraints caused by the pandemic. As a result, grain inventories are expected to increase in 2020, and soft commodity prices are trending significantly lower. In addition, protein processing has been severely constrained, which pressure protein producers. Future market demand for agricultural equipment will be influenced by, among other things, net cash farm income, farm land values, weather conditions, the demand for agricultural commodities, commodity prices and general economic conditions, and the decrease in market demand because of these factors could negatively impact our results of operations and overall financial condition.

•Deteriorating economic and political conditions, such as increased unemployment, economic slowdown or recessions, could cause further decrease in sales of our products.

•We may experience adverse fluctuations in foreign currency rates, particularly an increase in the value of the U.S. dollar against key market foreign currencies, which could negatively impact our sales.

•Governmental guidance, directives or regulations around the world could result in factory shutdowns and reduced production related to factory shutdowns or higher absentee rates. Additional operating costs due to the adherence of cleaning requirements and social distancing guidelines may also occur. We have recently suspended operations at a production facility in the U.S. due to a rise in COVID-19 infection rates, and may have further factory shutdowns in the future.

•Our factories are dependent upon parts and components manufactured by others, and to the extent that our suppliers are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, it will reduce the availability, or result in delays, of parts and components to us, which in turn could interrupt our ability to produce and sell completed products.

•Freight channels may be disrupted due to additional safety requirements imposed by port authorities and/or capacity constraints experienced by our freight carriers. As a result, we may also incur increased logistics costs.

•Declines in equity markets and the valuation of assets may negatively affect our pension plan assets, and, if this continues, we likely will incur increased pension expenses and funding requirements related to the fair value of our pension plan assets.

•Although we currently believe we have sufficient available funding to support our business, and we have not experienced a significant increase in borrowing costs, the severity and length of the COVID-19 pandemic could have significant negative impacts to our financial condition. This, in turn, could affect our credit ratings and borrowing costs.

•We have severely limited travel by our employees and have taken measures to ensure the health and safety of our employees at our factories. These measures include employee health screening, using personal protective equipment, enhanced cleaning and sanitation efforts, reworking factory layouts and staggering production schedules to conform with social distancing recommendations. We may also from time to time have to temporarily close factories due to the

level of COVID-19 cases at any factory. We also have transitioned most non-factory workforce to work-at-home arrangements. These measures may not be sufficient to prevent adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

•While we have initiated several cost-saving and capital deployment measures and strategies to monitor and manage our cash flows and operating expenses, these measures may not be sufficient to prevent adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

•We may be required to record significant impairment charges with respect to certain noncurrent assets such as goodwill and other intangible assets and equity method investments, whose fair values may be negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We also may be required to write-down inventory that is deemed obsolete due to decreased sales.

•If economic conditions continue to deteriorate, we may experience slower collections and larger write-offs of accounts receivable. Our customers and dealers may request payment deferrals or contract modifications. In addition, our finance joint ventures also may experience slower collections and greater write-offs of accounts receivable, which would result in reduced earnings, if not losses, for us from our investments in the retail joint ventures.

•Government authorities in the U.S. and throughout the world may increase or impose new income or indirect taxes, or revise interpretations of existing tax regulations, as a means of financing the costs of stimulus and other measures taken, or that might be enacted and taken in the future, to protect populations and economies from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Such actions could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

•It is unclear when an economic recovery will occur and both the speed and extent of that recovery. However, we expect the impact of COVID-19 to continue well into 2021. The failure of any recovery to return the agricultural equipment economy to its pre-COVID-19 level could adversely affect our results of operations and financial position.
