AGCO Corporation Analyst Notes
On April 29, 2014, AGCO Corporation (AGCO) reported its Q1 2014 results with net sales of $2.3 billion, down 2.9% YoY. In Q1 2014, the Company's North American sales grew 5.2% YoY. According to AGCO, the elevated levels of farm income in 2013 continued to support industry demand in Q1 2014 led by the dairy, protein and professional hay segments. However, South American net sales dropped 9.3% YoY primarily due to lower sales in Brazil, and sales in Asia/Pacific region also declined 16.6% YoY due to lower sales and increased market development costs in China. The Company said that EAME sales (excluding currency translation impacts) remained flat despite softer market conditions. AGCO's net income for the quarter stood at $99.2 million, compared with $117.1 million in Q1 2013. Martin Richenhagen, Chairman, President and CEO of the Company, said, "We are focusing our efforts on increasing productivity and reducing material costs throughout our operations to offset these market headwinds. We also demonstrated our commitment to return cash to stockholders by making meaningful progress with the $500 million share repurchase program announced in December of 2013."
