ORGANIZATION AND CONSOLIDATION

1. ORGANIZATION AND CONSOLIDATION

References to “Deere & Company,” “John Deere,” “Deere,” “we,” “us,” or “our” include our consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated. We manage our business through the following operating segments: Production & Precision Agriculture (PPA), Small Agriculture & Turf (SAT), Construction & Forestry (CF), and Financial Services (John Deere Financial or FS). References to “equipment operations” include PPA, SAT, and CF, while references to “agriculture and turf” include both PPA and SAT.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of all companies in which Deere & Company has a controlling interest. Certain variable interest entities (VIEs) are consolidated since we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. When we have significant influence in an unconsolidated affiliated company (generally 20% to 50% ownership), we record our investment at cost, adjusted for our share of profit or loss after acquisition, and further reduced for any dividends (equity method of accounting). Other investments (generally less than 20% ownership) are recorded at cost.

Fiscal Year

We use a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the last Sunday in the reporting period, which generally occurs near the end of October. An additional week is included in the fourth fiscal quarter every five or six years to realign our fiscal quarters with the calendar. Fiscal year 2025 contained 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks in fiscal years 2024 and 2023. The fiscal year ends for 2025, 2024, and 2023 were November 2, 2025, October 27, 2024, and October 29, 2023, respectively. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years, quarters, or months refer to our fiscal years and the associated periods in those fiscal years.

Presentation of Amounts

All amounts are presented in millions of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise specified. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Variable Interest Entities

We consolidate certain VIEs related to retail note securitizations (see Note 12).

We have a 50% ownership interest in Banco John Deere S.A. (BJD), an equity method investment that finances retail and wholesale loans for agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment in Brazil. This investment was established in February 2025 through the sale of 50% ownership of a former subsidiary (see Note 3). BJD is a VIE as we provide funding and are exposed to losses that are disproportionate to our voting rights. However, we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE because the power over significant activities, including the strategic plan, budget, credit policies, and funding guidelines, is shared among equity holders through an equally represented board of directors.

Financial results of BJD are reported in “Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates.” The related investment in unconsolidated affiliates is included in “Other assets” on the consolidated balance sheets, while short-term and long-term funding is recorded in receivables from unconsolidated affiliates and included in “Other receivables.”

Our carrying value of receivables from and investments in BJD and maximum exposure to loss at November 2, 2025, follow:

Guarantees primarily include BJD debt related to government funding that existed prior to the deconsolidation of BJD. We did not record a contractual liability related to these guarantees on our consolidated balance sheets.

Argentina

We have equipment operations and financial services operations in Argentina. The U.S. dollar has historically been the functional currency for our Argentina operations, as our business is indexed to the U.S. dollar due to the highly inflationary conditions. Argentine peso-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at each balance sheet date using the official currency exchange rate. The Argentine government has currency controls that restrict our ability to pay certain outstanding intercompany payables. As of November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, our net investment in Argentina was $833 and $826, respectively. Net sales and revenues from our Argentine operations represented approximately 2% of consolidated net sales and revenues for 2025 and 1% for 2024 and 2023. As of November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, the gross peso exposure was $110 and $69, respectively, while the net peso exposure (after considering the impact of short-term hedges) was $40 and $14, respectively. In 2025 and 2024, we invested in U.S. dollar denominated bonds issued by the central bank of Argentina. The bonds are recorded in “Marketable securities” and classified as “International debt securities.” These bonds can be held until maturity or sold in secondary markets outside of Argentina to settle intercompany debt.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS  
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The following are significant accounting policies in addition to those included in other notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates in Financial Statements

Certain accounting policies require management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the amounts reflected in the financial statements and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

General

Sales of equipment and service parts are recognized when we transfer control of the good to the independent customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. In most situations, the independent customer is a dealer, which subsequently sells the equipment and service parts purchased from us to a retail customer, who can finance the equipment with the financial services segment or another source of financing. In some situations, we sell directly to a retail customer. The term “customer” includes both dealers and retail customers to whom we make direct sales.

Interest-Free Periods and Past-Due Interest

We charge dealers interest on outstanding balances from the earlier of when goods are sold to a retail customer by the dealer or the expiration of the interest-free period granted at the time of the sale to the dealer. Interest-free periods are determined based on the type of equipment sold and the time of year of the sale. These periods range from one to twelve months for most equipment. Interest-free periods may not be extended. Interest charged may

not be forgiven, and past due interest rates are charged at higher rates. If the interest-free or below market interest rate period exceeds one year, we adjust the expected sales revenue for the effects of the time value of money using a current market interest rate. The revenue related to the financing component is recognized in “Finance and interest income” using the interest method. We do not adjust the sales price to account for a financing component if the expected interest-free or below market period is one year or less.

Right of Return

Generally, no right of return exists on sales of equipment. Dealers cannot cancel purchases after we recognize a sale and are responsible for payment even if the equipment is not sold to a retail customer. Service parts and certain attachment returns are estimable and accrued at the time a sale is recognized. The estimated returns are based on historical return rates, current dealer inventory levels, and current economic conditions. The estimated returns are recorded in “Other assets” for the inventory value of estimated returns, adjusted for restocking fees. The estimated dealer refund liability, adjusted for restocking fees, is recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses.”

Remanufacturing

We remanufacture used engines and components (cores) that are sold to dealers and retail customers for maintenance and repair parts. Revenue for remanufactured components is recognized using the same criteria as other parts sales. When a remanufactured part is sold, we collect a deposit that is repaid if the customer returns a core that meets certain specifications within a defined time period. The deposit received from the customer is recognized as a liability in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” and the used component that is expected to be returned is recognized in “Other assets.” When a customer returns a core, the deposit is repaid, the liability reversed, and the returned core is recorded in inventory to be remanufactured and sold to another customer. If a core is not returned within the required time, the deposit is recognized as revenue in “Net sales,” and the cost of the core is recorded as an expense in “Cost of sales.”

Bundled Technology

Certain equipment is sold with precision guidance, telematics, and other information gathering and analyzing capabilities. These technology solutions require hardware, software, and may include an obligation to provide services for a period of time. These solutions are mostly bundled with the sale of the equipment but can also be purchased or renewed separately. The revenue related to the hardware and embedded software is recognized at the time of the equipment sale and recorded in “Net sales.” The revenue for the future services and usage-based software is deferred and recognized over the service period. The deferred revenue is recorded as a contract liability in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses.”

Financing Revenue and Origination Costs

Financing revenue and deferred costs on the origination of financing receivables are recorded over the lives of the related receivables using the interest method. Deferred costs are

recognized as a reduction to “Finance and interest income.” Income and deferred costs on the origination of operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the scheduled lease terms in “Finance and interest income.”

Sales Incentives

We offer sales incentive programs to promote the sale of our products from the dealer to the retail customer. At the time of the sale to a dealer, we record an estimated cost for the sales incentive programs as a reduction to the sales price. The estimated cost is based on historical data, announced and expected incentive programs, field inventory levels, and forecasted sales volumes. The final cost of these programs is determined at the end of the measurement period for volume-based incentives or when the dealer sells the equipment to a retail customer. One type of sales incentive program offered to dealers is pool funds in which we award dealers funds based on new equipment sales. Dealers can use these funds to incentivize sales from the dealer to the end customer. Pool funds, as well as some other incentive programs, are recorded in “Trade accounts and notes receivable – net” when we have the contractual right and the intent to offset against the existing dealer receivables. Actual cost differences from the original cost estimate are recognized in “Net sales.”

Product Warranties

For equipment and service parts sales, we provide a standard warranty. At the time a sale is recognized, the estimated future warranty costs are recorded. The warranty liability is estimated based on historical warranty claims rate experience and the estimated amount of equipment still under warranty. The historical claims rate is primarily determined by a review of five-year claims costs while also taking into consideration current quality developments. The amount of equipment still under warranty is estimated based on dealer inventories and retail sales.

We also offer extended warranty arrangements for purchase at the customer’s option. The premiums for extended warranties are recognized in “Other income” primarily in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred over the contract period. The unamortized extended warranty premiums (deferred revenue) are recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” (see Note 18).

Sales and Transaction Taxes

We collect and remit taxes for revenue producing transactions as necessary based on various tax laws. These taxes include sales, use, value-added, and some excise taxes. We elected to exclude these taxes from the determination of the sales price. These taxes are not included in revenues.

Contract Costs

Incremental costs of obtaining an equipment revenue contract are recognized as an expense when incurred since the amortization period would be one year or less.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are charged to “Selling, administrative and general expenses” as incurred. Advertising costs were $235 in 2025, $230 in 2024, and $244 in 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization

Property and equipment, capitalized software, and other intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. These assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Equipment on operating leases is depreciated over the terms of the leases using the straight-line method. Property and equipment expenditures for new and upgraded products, increased capacity, and the replacement or major renewal of significant items are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider investments with purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes cash and cash equivalents that are restricted from withdrawal or use under the terms of securitization agreements (see Note 12) and cash held to meet governmental and legal requirements. Restricted cash is recorded in “Other assets.”

Marketable Securities

We have investments in debt and equity securities that are recorded in “Marketable securities,” which include investments in debt securities that are more than three months to maturity at the date of purchase. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale at the time of purchase and at each balance sheet date. Most of our debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, reported in other comprehensive income. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Equity securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in “Other income.” We generally determine realized gains or losses on sales of investments based on specific identification and include them in “Other income” on the statements of consolidated income (see Notes 10 and 25).

Receivables and Allowances

All financing and trade receivables are reported on the balance sheet at outstanding principal and accrued interest, adjusted for:

write-offs
allowance for credit losses
unamortized deferred fees or costs on originated financing receivables

The allowance is a reduction to the receivable balances, and the provision is recorded in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of our receivable portfolio. Non-performing receivables are included in the estimate of expected credit losses. The allowance is measured on a collective basis for receivables with similar risk characteristics. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Risk characteristics include:

finance product category
market
geography
credit risk
remaining balance

We utilize the following loss forecast models to estimate expected credit losses:

Linear regression models are used for large and complex retail customer receivable pools, which represent more than 90% of retail customer receivables. These statistical models utilize independent variables, or predictive features, to estimate lifetime default rates, which are subsequently adjusted for expected recoveries to arrive at lifetime credit loss estimates. Independent variables included in the models vary by product, but can include credit quality at time of application, remaining account balance, delinquency status, and various economic factors, such as commodity prices, employment levels, and housing data. The economic factors include forward-looking conditions over our reasonable and supportable forecast period. In the fourth quarter of 2024, we transitioned from the use of transition matrix models to linear regression models to estimate expected credit losses. This change in methodology did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Weighted average remaining maturity (WARM) models are used for smaller and less complex retail customer receivable pools.
Historical loss rate models are used on wholesale receivables, with consideration of current economic conditions and dealer financial risk.

Management reviews each model’s output quarterly, and qualitative adjustments are incorporated as necessary (see Note 11).

Long-Lived Assets, Goodwill, and Other Intangible Asset Impairment

We evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets (including equipment on operating leases, property and equipment, goodwill, and other intangible assets) when events or circumstances warrant such a review. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset is considered impaired, the long-lived asset is written down to its fair value (see Notes 4 and 25).

Goodwill and unamortized intangible assets are tested for impairment annually at the end of the third quarter of each fiscal year, and more often if events or circumstances may have caused the fair value to fall below the carrying value. Goodwill is allocated and reviewed for impairment by reporting unit. Goodwill is allocated to the reporting unit in which the business that created the goodwill resides. To test for goodwill impairment, the carrying value of each reporting unit is compared with its fair value. If the carrying value of the goodwill is considered impaired, the impairment is measured as the reporting unit’s carrying value minus the fair value. We determined that there was no impairment to goodwill during the annual goodwill impairment review.

Derivative Financial Instruments

It is our policy to use derivative transactions only to manage exposures from the normal course of business. We do not execute derivative transactions for the purpose of creating speculative positions or trading. Our financial services operations have interest rate and foreign currency exposure between (a) the receivable or lease portfolio and (b) how those portfolios are funded. We also have foreign currency exposures at some of our foreign and domestic operations related to buying, selling, and financing in currencies other than the functional currencies. In addition, we have interest rate and foreign currency exposure at certain equipment operations units for sales incentive programs.

All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral received or paid is not offset against the derivative fair values on the balance sheets. The cash flows from the derivative contracts are recorded in operating activities in the statements of consolidated cash flows. Each derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, fair value hedge, net investment hedge, or remains undesignated.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded as follows:

Cash flow hedges: Recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and reclassified to the income statement when the effects of the item being hedged are recognized in the income statement. These amounts offset the effects of interest rate changes on the related borrowings in interest expense.
Fair value hedges: Recorded in interest expense, and the gains or losses are offset by the fair value gains or losses on the hedged items (fixed-rate borrowings), which are also recorded in interest expense.
Net investment hedges: Changes attributable to spot rate changes are recorded in OCI within “Cumulative translation adjustment” to offset the effects of foreign currency changes on the related net investments in foreign subsidiaries. This amount is reclassified to the income statement when the net investment in the foreign subsidiary is sold or substantially liquidated. The interest accrual for periodic cash settlements of cross-currency swaps is recorded in interest expense.
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Changes in the fair value of undesignated hedges are recognized as they occur in the income statement.

All designated hedges are formally documented as to the relationship with the hedged item as well as the risk-management strategy. Both at inception and on an ongoing basis, the hedging instrument is assessed for its effectiveness. Net investment hedge effectiveness is assessed using the spot method. If and when a derivative is determined not to be highly effective as a hedge, the underlying hedged transaction is no longer likely to occur, the hedge designation is removed, or the derivative is terminated, hedge accounting is discontinued (see Note 26).

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

We record redeemable noncontrolling interest at the greater of the redemption fair value or the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest adjusted for income or loss and changes in other

comprehensive income components. We have a redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the acquisition of Kreisel Electric Inc. (Kreisel) in 2022. The transaction included a call option to purchase the remaining ownership interest in Kreisel in 2027. The minority interest holders also have a put option that would require us to purchase the holders’ ownership interest in 2027. The put and call options cannot be separated from the noncontrolling interest. Due to the redemption features, the minority interest is classified as redeemable noncontrolling interest in our consolidated balance sheets.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currencies for most of our foreign operations are their respective local currencies. The assets and liabilities of these operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at the end of the period. The revenues and expenses are translated at weighted-average rates for the period. The gains or losses from these translations are recorded in OCI.

Foreign currency gains or losses and foreign exchange components of derivative contracts are included in net income, with trade flow activity recorded in “Cost of sales,” sales incentive activity recorded in “Net sales,” and all other activity recorded in “Other operating expenses.” The pretax net loss for foreign exchange in 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $60, $63, and $159, respectively. Foreign exchange components of net investment derivative contracts are included in OCI within “Cumulative translation adjustment.”

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

We closely monitor all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and other authoritative guidance. We adopted the following standards in 2025, none of which had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements:

No. 2023-07 — Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

No. 2023-05 — Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement

No. 2022-03 — Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions

Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides updated guidance on how to recognize, measure, and present government grants. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our interim reporting for fiscal year 2030, with early adoption permitted. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which provides updated guidance for the capitalization of internal-use software. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our interim reporting for fiscal year 2029, with early adoption

permitted. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which expands disclosures about specific expense categories presented on the face of the income statement. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2028 and interim periods thereafter. We are assessing the effect of ASU 2024-03 on our related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands disclosures in an entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and cash taxes paid both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2026. We are assessing the effect of this update on our related disclosures.

We will also adopt the following standards in future periods, none of which are expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. All other accounting standards issued but not yet adopted were not applicable to us.

No. 2025-11 — Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements

No. 2025-09 — Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements

ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

3. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the presented periods, we completed acquisitions to support our Smart Industrial Operating Model and Leap Ambitions, which focus on advancing our capabilities in technology.

Acquisitions

2025 Acquisitions

In 2025, we acquired several small-scale businesses to advance the capabilities of our existing technology offerings, providing customers with a more comprehensive set of tools to generate and use data to make decisions that aim at improving profitability, efficiency, and sustainability. In addition, we acquired the remaining ownership interest of an equity method investment (see Note 25 for fair value measurement information). The combined

purchase price consideration for these acquisitions was $115, consisting of $101 cash, net of cash acquired, and $14 loan forgiven. The businesses were assigned to the PPA, SAT, and CF segments. Most of the purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated to goodwill and intangible assets.

2023 Acquisitions

In 2023, we acquired SparkAI Inc. (Spark AI) and Smart Apply, Inc. (Smart Apply) to accelerate the integration of smart technology innovation in our products. The combined cost of these acquisitions was $82, net of cash acquired of $2. Spark AI was assigned to the PPA segment, while Smart Apply was assigned to the SAT segment. Most of the purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated to goodwill.

Dispositions

2025 Disposition

In February 2025, we completed a transaction with Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco), for Bradesco to invest and become a 50% owner of our wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil, BJD. Bradesco contributed capital directly to BJD. The transaction resulted in the deconsolidation of BJD in the second quarter of 2025. BJD finances retail and wholesale loans for agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment and was included in our financial services segment. BJD was a part of our Brazil operations which is considered an integrated single foreign entity.

We retained a 50% equity interest in BJD, which was valued at the deconsolidation date at $362 based on the completed transaction with Bradesco and its amount of contributed capital. We are accounting for our investment in BJD using the equity method of accounting and results of its operations are reported in “Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates” (see Note 1). The related investments in unconsolidated affiliates and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates are reported in “Other assets” and “Other receivables,” respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

The major classes of the total assets and liabilities of BJD at the time of deconsolidation were as follows:

February 2025

Cash and cash equivalents

110

Trade accounts and notes receivable – net

At the time of deconsolidation, the additional gain or loss was not significant. BJD was reclassified as held for sale in the third quarter of 2024 prior to its deconsolidation.

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents resulting from deconsolidation of BJD was recorded in other investing activities in the statements of consolidated cash flows. See Note 6 for information on non-cash transactions.

2023 Dispositions

In October 2023, we sold our roadbuilding business in Russia. At the time of the sale, total assets were $32, consisting primarily of restricted cash, total liabilities were $1, and the cumulative translation loss was $11. Total proceeds from the sale include $16 of cash and $8 of deferred consideration. A pretax and after-tax loss of $18 was recorded in “Other operating expenses” in the CF segment. As of November 2, 2025, our remaining investments in Russia were not material.

In March 2023, we sold our financial services business in Russia (registered in Russia as a leasing company) to Insight Investment Group. The total proceeds, net of restricted cash sold, were $36. The operations were included in the financial services operating segment through the date of sale. At the disposal date, the total assets were $31, consisting primarily of financing receivables, the total liabilities were $5, and the cumulative translation loss was $10. In the first quarter of 2023, we reversed the allowance for credit losses and recorded a valuation allowance on the assets held for sale in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” We did not incur additional gains or losses upon disposition.

4. SPECIAL ITEMS

2025 Special Items

Litigation Accrual

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we have increased our total accrued losses on unresolved legal matters in connection with a consolidated multidistrict class action antitrust lawsuit by $95 pretax ($75 after-tax) which was included in “Selling, administrative and general expenses” (see Note 20). The expense was allocated $47 to PPA, $24 to SAT, and $24 to CF.

Impairment

In the third quarter of 2025, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $61 pretax ($49 after-tax), primarily related to the trade name and customer relationship assets of our external overseas battery operations. Of this amount, $53 was recorded in “Selling, administrative and general expenses” and $8 in “Cost of sales.” This is presented in “Impairments and other adjustments” in the statements of consolidated cash flows. The loss was allocated $28 to PPA, $17 to SAT, and $16 to CF. The impairment resulted from slowing external demand for batteries, which indicated that it is probable future cash flows would not cover the carrying value of the assets (see Note 25).

Banco John Deere S.A.

In February 2025, we completed the transaction with Bradesco (see Note 3) for the sale of 50% ownership in BJD. In the first quarter of 2025, a pretax and after-tax gain (reversal of previous losses) of $32 was recorded in “Selling, administrative and general expenses” and presented in “Impairments and other adjustments” in the statements of consolidated income and consolidated cash flows, respectively, related to a decrease in valuation allowance.

Tax Items

In the first quarter of 2025, we recorded favorable net discrete tax items primarily due to tax benefits of $110 related to the realization of foreign net operating losses from the consolidation of certain subsidiaries and $53 from an adjustment to an uncertain tax position of a foreign subsidiary.

2024 Special Items

Legal Settlements

In 2024, we reached legal settlements concerning patent infringement claims. As a result of these settlements, we recognized a total of $57 pretax gain ($45 after-tax) in "Other income," providing a benefit of $17 to PPA and $40 to CF. These settlements resolve the disputes without any admission of liability by the parties involved. We believe that these settlements enhance our ability to protect our intellectual property and reinforce our commitment to innovation and technological advancement.

Impairment

In the fourth quarter of 2024, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $28 pretax and after-tax in “Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates” for an other than temporary decline in value of an investment recorded in SAT. See Note 25 for fair value measurement information.

Employee-Separation Programs

In the third quarter of 2024, we implemented employee-separation programs for our salaried workforce in several geographic areas, including the United States, Europe, Asia, and Latin America. The programs’ main purpose was to help meet our strategic priorities while reducing overlap and redundancy in roles and responsibilities. The programs were largely involuntary in nature with the expense recorded when management committed to a plan, the plan was communicated to the employees, and the employees were not required to provide service beyond the legal notification period. For the limited voluntary employee-separation programs, the expense was recorded in the period in which the employee irrevocably accepted a separation offer.

In 2024, we recorded $157 pretax expenses ($124 after-tax) related to the programs. The programs’ pretax expenses were as follows:

Banco John Deere S.A.

In the third quarter of 2024, we reclassified the BJD business as held for sale, including a reversal of $38 in allowance for credit losses. At October 27, 2024, a $97 valuation allowance was recorded on the assets held for sale, which was presented in “Impairments and other adjustments” in the statements of consolidated cash flows. The net impact of these entries was a pretax and after-tax loss of $59 recorded in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” See Note 25 for fair value measurement information.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

In the third quarter of 2024, we exercised our right to purchase the remaining 20% interest in SurePoint. The arrangement was accounted for as an equity transaction with no gain or loss recorded in the statements of consolidated income.

2023 Special Items

Sale of Russian Roadbuilding Business

In October 2023, we sold our Russian roadbuilding business, recognizing a loss of $18 (pretax and after-tax). The loss was recorded in “Other operating expenses” in the CF segment.

Brazil Tax Ruling

In the third quarter of 2023, the Brazil Superior Court of Justice published a favorable tax ruling regarding taxability of local incentives, which allowed us to record a $243 reduction in the provision for income taxes and $47 of interest income.

Financial Services Financing Incentives Correction

In the second quarter of 2023, we corrected the accounting treatment for financing incentives offered to John Deere dealers, which impacted the timing of expense recognition and the presentation of incentive costs in the consolidated financial statements. The cumulative effect of this correction, $173 pretax ($135 after-tax), was recorded in “Selling, administrative and general expenses” in the second quarter of 2023. Prior period results for Deere & Company were not restated, as the adjustment was considered immaterial to our financial statements.

The ”Other” category includes sales of components to other equipment manufacturers that are included in “Net sales;” revenue earned over time from precision guidance, telematics, and other information enabled solutions; revenue from service performed at company owned dealerships and service centers; gains on disposition of property and businesses; trademark licensing revenue; and other miscellaneous revenue items that are included in “Other income.”

Revenues are assigned to the geographic market based on customer location.

We invoice in advance of recognizing the revenue of certain products and services. These relate to extended warranty premiums, advance payments for future equipment sales, and subscription and service revenue related to precision guidance, telematic services, and other information enabled solutions. These advanced customer payments are presented as deferred revenue, a contract liability, in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses.” The deferred revenue received but not recognized in revenue was $2,039 and $1,923 at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, respectively. The contract liability is reduced as the revenue is recognized. Revenue recognized from deferred revenue that was

recorded as a contract liability at the beginning of the fiscal year was $654 in 2025, $553 in 2024, and $547 in 2023.

The amount of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original duration greater than one year and the estimated revenue to be recognized by fiscal year at November 2, 2025, follows:

As permitted, we elected only to disclose remaining performance obligations with an original contract duration greater than one year. The contracts with an expected duration of one year or less are for sales to dealers and retail customers for equipment, service parts, repair services, and certain telematics services.

6. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

All cash flows from receivables related to sales are included in operating activities. This includes all changes in trade accounts and notes receivables, as well as some financing receivables (see Note 11). Financing receivables that are related to loans on equipment sold by independent dealers are included in investing activities.

During 2025, we issued $2.6 billion and retired $4.4 billion of retail note securitization borrowings, which are presented in “Net proceeds (payments) in short-term borrowings (original maturities three months or less).”

Our noncash transactions as a result of the BJD deconsolidation in February 2025 (see Note 3) include the derecognition of total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) of $2,897 and total liabilities of $1,861, and the recognition of the investments in unconsolidated affiliates of $362 and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates (BJD intercompany payables) of $781. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents resulting from the deconsolidation of BJD was recorded in other investing activities in the statements of consolidated cash flows. We also had noncash consideration of a loan forgiven related to a 2025 acquisition of the remaining ownership interest of an equity method investment (see Note 3).

7. PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

We have several funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans. These plans cover U.S. employees and certain foreign employees. The measurement date of our plans is October 31. The U.S. salaried qualified pension plan and U.S. salaried and hourly OPEB health care plans are closed to new participants.

The components of net periodic pension and OPEB (benefit) cost excluding the service cost component are included in the line item “Other operating expenses.”

During 2025 and 2024, curtailment expense of $18 and $35, respectively, was recognized related to U.S. hourly employee layoffs. During 2023, a settlement expense of $36 was recognized for the acceleration of actuarial losses related to the transfer of the Canadian pension plan’s defined benefit obligations and related plan assets to an insurance company.

The 2026 net periodic pension benefit is expected to increase by $60 due to changes in discount rates, decreases in amortization of actuarial losses, and the U.S. hourly pension curtailment recognized in 2025, described above.

The actuarial gain for pension for 2025 was due to increases in discount rates. The actuarial losses for pension and OPEB for 2024 were due to decreases in discount rates. The actuarial loss for OPEB for 2024 was also impacted by changes to health care assumptions.

The discount rate assumptions used to determine the pension and OPEB obligations for all periods presented were based on hypothetical AA yield curves represented by a series of annualized individual discount rates. These discount rates represent the rates at which our benefit obligations could effectively be settled at the October 31 measurement dates.

The mortality assumptions for the 2025 and 2024 U.S. benefit plan obligations used the tables based on the plan’s mortality experience and the most recent scales issued by the Society of Actuaries. The 2025 and 2024 mortality assumptions included an adjustment to the scale related to COVID for some plans.

The weighted-average annual rates of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits (the health care cost trend rates) for medical and prescription drug claims for pre- and post-65 age groups used to determine the November 2, 2025, and

October 27, 2024, accumulated postretirement benefit obligations were as follows:

Actuarial gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). To the extent unamortized gains and losses exceed 10% of the higher of the market-related value of assets or the benefit obligation, the excess is amortized as a component of net periodic (benefit) cost over the remaining service period of the active participants. For plans in which all or almost all of the plan’s participants are inactive, the amortization period is the remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants.

Contributions

We make any required contributions to the plan assets under applicable regulations and voluntary contributions after evaluating our liquidity position and ability to make tax-deductible contributions. Total contributions to the plans were $778 in 2025 and $241 in 2024, which included both required and voluntary contributions and direct benefit payments. The 2025 contributions include a $520 voluntary contribution to a U.S. OPEB plan. This contribution increased plan assets.

We expect to contribute approximately $100 to our pension plans and approximately $150 to our OPEB plans in 2026. The contributions include voluntary contributions and direct benefit payments from company funds. We have no required contributions to U.S. pension plan assets in 2026 under applicable funding regulations.

Investments at net asset value in the preceding tables are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient and are not classified in the fair value hierarchy. Fair value measurement levels in the preceding tables are defined in Note 25.

Fair values are determined as follows:

Cash and Short-Term Investments – The investments include (1) cash accounts that are valued based on the account value, which approximates fair value; (2) investments that are valued at quoted prices in the active markets in which the investment trades or using a market approach (matrix pricing model) in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data; and (3) investment funds that are valued based on a constant fund net asset value, which is based on quoted prices in the active market in which the investment fund trades, or the fund’s net asset value using the net asset value per share practical expedient (NAV), which is based on the fair value of the underlying securities.

Equity Securities and Funds The Level 1 investments are determined using quoted prices in the active market in which the equity investment trades. Equity funds are valued using the fund’s NAV, which is based on the fair value of the underlying securities.

Fixed Income Securities and Funds and Other FundsThe securities are valued using either a market approach (matrix pricing model) in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, credit risk, and prepayment speeds, or they are valued using the quoted prices in the active market in which the fixed income investment trades. Fixed income and other funds are valued using the fund’s NAV, which is based on the fair value of the underlying securities.

Real Estate, Venture Capital, Private Equity, and Hedge Funds The investments that are structured as limited partnerships are valued at estimated fair value based on their proportionate share of the limited partnership’s fair value that is determined by the respective general partner. These investments are valued using the fund’s NAV, which is based on the fair value of the underlying investments. Valuations may be lagged up to six months. The NAV is adjusted for cash flows (additional investments or contributions, and distributions) and any known substantive valuation changes through year end.

Derivative InstrumentsThe derivatives are valued using either an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates, or a market approach (quoted prices in the active market in which the derivative instrument trades).

The investment objective for the pension and health care plan assets is to fulfill the projected obligations to the beneficiaries over a long period of time, while meeting our fiduciary responsibilities. The asset allocation policy is the most important decision in managing the assets, and it is reviewed regularly. The asset allocation policy considers our long-term asset class risk/return expectations for each plan since the obligations are long-term in

nature. The target asset allocations as of November 2, 2025, are as follows:

Pension

Health Care

 

  ​ ​ ​

Assets

  ​ ​ ​

Assets

 

Equity

8%

10%

Debt

66%

70%

Real estate

3%

3%

Other investments

23%

17%

The assets are diversified and are managed by professional investment firms as well as by investment professionals who are company employees. As a result of our diversified investment policy, there were no significant concentrations of risk.

A market related value of plan assets is used to calculate the expected return on assets. The market related value recognizes changes in the fair value of pension plan assets systematically over a five-year period. The market related value of the health care plan assets equals fair value.

The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets reflects management’s expectations of long-term average rates of return on funds invested to provide for benefits included in the projected benefit obligations. The expected return is based on the outlook for inflation and for returns in multiple asset classes, while also considering historical returns, asset allocation, and investment strategy. Our approach has emphasized the long-term nature of the return estimate such that the return assumption is not changed significantly unless there are fundamental changes in capital markets that affect our expectations for returns over an extended period of time (i.e., 10 to 20 years). The average annual return of our U.S. pension fund was approximately 7.4% during the past 10 years and approximately 7.7% during the past 20 years.

We have Voluntary Employees’ Beneficiary Association trusts (VEBAs) for the funding of hourly and salary postretirement health care benefits. The future expected asset returns for the VEBAs are lower than the expected return on the other pension and health care plan assets due to investment in a higher proportion of liquid securities. These assets are in addition to the other postretirement health care plan assets that have been funded under Section 401(h) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and maintained in a separate account in the John Deere Pension Trust.

Defined Contribution Plans

We maintain separate defined contribution plans, primarily in the U.S. Under the plans, we contribute a percentage of each eligible employee’s compensation. Our contributions and costs under these plans were $333 in 2025, $326 in 2024, and $288 in 2023.

We are subject to income taxes in a number of jurisdictions. We determine our income tax provision using the asset and liability method. The provision for income taxes by taxing jurisdiction and by significant component consisted of the following:

Based upon the location of our operations, the consolidated income before income taxes in the U.S. in 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $2.7 billion, $5.9 billion, and $7.8 billion, respectively, and in foreign countries was $3.6 billion, $3.3 billion, and $5.2 billion, respectively. Certain foreign operations are branches or partnerships of Deere & Company and are subject to U.S. as well as foreign income tax regulations. The pretax income by location and the preceding analysis of the income tax provision by taxing jurisdiction are not directly related.

At November 2, 2025, undistributed profits of subsidiaries outside the U.S. of approximately $8.2 billion are considered indefinitely reinvested. Determination of the amount of a foreign withholding tax liability on these unremitted earnings is not practicable.

Deferred income taxes arise because there are certain items that are treated differently for financial accounting than for income tax

reporting purposes. An analysis of the deferred income tax assets and liabilities at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, follows:

Deere & Company files a consolidated federal income tax return in the U.S., which includes the wholly-owned financial services subsidiaries. These subsidiaries account for income taxes as if they filed separate income tax returns, with a modification for realizability of certain tax benefits.

At November 2, 2025, tax loss and tax credit carryforwards of $1,700 were available with $1,164 expiring from 2026 through 2045 and $536 with an indefinite carryforward period.

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, that would impact the effective tax rate if the tax benefits were recognized was $322 and $410, respectively. The remaining liability was related to tax positions for which there are offsetting tax receivables, or the uncertainty was only related

to timing. We expect that any reasonably possible change in the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months would not be significant.

We file our tax returns according to the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which we operate, which includes the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed the examination of our federal income tax returns for periods prior to 2015. The federal income tax returns for years 2015 to 2020 are currently under examination. Various state and foreign income tax returns also remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.

It is our policy to recognize interest related to income taxes in “Interest expense” and “Finance and interest income” and recognize penalties related to income taxes in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” Income tax related interest and penalties were not significant in 2025, 2024, or 2023. At November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, liabilities for income tax related interest and penalties were not significant.

Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because some securities may be called or prepaid. Mortgage-backed securities contain prepayment provisions and are not categorized by contractual maturity.

Proceeds of available-for-sale debt securities sold or matured during 2025, 2024, and 2023 were $486, $619, and $37, respectively. Realized gains, realized losses, and unrealized losses that have been continuous for over twelve months on debt securities were not material in 2025, 2024, and 2023.

Unrealized losses were not recognized in income due to the ability and intent to hold to maturity and recover the unrealized losses. We evaluate investments quarterly for impairment and determine credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities using the specific identification method. There were no allowances for credit losses nor impairment write-downs in the periods presented. The unrealized losses on securities are due to changes in interest rates and market liquidity.

At November 2, 2025, we also had $60 marketable securities classified as held-to-maturity international corporate debt securities that mature in less than one year. We record held-to-

maturity marketable securities at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

Equity Securities

At November 2, 2025, we also had a $7 investment in an international fixed income fund equity security.

Trade Accounts and Notes Receivable

Trade accounts and notes receivable arise from sales of goods and services to dealers. See Note 2 for our revenue recognition policy. We evaluate and assess customers’ creditworthiness on an ongoing basis. Receivables are secured with collateral or other credit enhancements.

Financing Receivables Overall

Financing receivables originate under the following circumstances:

Retail customers purchase (or lease) equipment from a dealer and finance the equipment through John Deere Financial.
We sell the equipment to a dealer under trade terms. Trade terms end and the dealer finances the equipment on a wholesale receivable. Shown as wholesale notes in “Financing Receivables – Related to the Sale of Equipment.”
A dealer finances the purchase of used equipment through John Deere Financial.
We sell (or lease) the equipment directly to a retail customer with terms typically greater than 12 months. Shown as retail notes or sales-type leases in the “Financing Receivables –Related to the Sale of Equipment.”
The retail customer utilizes a revolving credit product to finance parts, service, or input costs.

Credit risk continues to be evaluated by market, rather than by operating segment. Financing receivables have significant concentrations of credit risk in the agriculture and turf and construction and forestry markets. On a geographic basis, 89% of our financing receivables were located in the U.S. and Canada at November 2, 2025. There is no disproportionate concentration of credit risk with any single customer or dealer. We retain as collateral security in the equipment associated with most financing receivables. Theft and physical damage insurance are required for this equipment.

Financing Receivables Credit Quality Analysis

We monitor the credit quality of financing receivables based on delinquency status, defined as follows:

Past due balances represent any payments 30 days or more past the due date.
Non-performing financing receivables represent receivables for which we have stopped accruing finance income. This generally occurs when receivables are 90 days delinquent.
Write-offs generally occur when receivables are 120 days delinquent. In these situations, the estimated uncollectible amount is written off to the allowance for credit losses.

Finance income for non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrual of finance income is resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collections are reasonably assured.

The credit quality and aging analysis of retail notes, financing leases, and revolving charge accounts (collectively, retail customer receivables) by year of origination was as follows:

*    Individual allowances were not significant.

We monitor the economy as part of the allowance setting process, including potential impacts of the agricultural market business cycle, global trade policies, and interest rates. Adjustments to the allowance are incorporated, as necessary.

The allowance for credit losses on retail notes and financing lease receivables increased in 2025, primarily due to higher expected losses on agriculture and turf customer accounts as a result of elevated delinquencies and a decline in market conditions.

During 2024, the financial services business in Brazil met the held for sale criteria, therefore the receivables were reclassified to “Assets held for sale” and the associated allowance for credit losses was reversed. These operations were deconsolidated in the second quarter of 2025 (see Note 3). Excluding the impact of BJD, the allowance for credit losses on retail notes and financing lease receivables increased in 2024, primarily due to higher expected losses on agriculture customer accounts as a result of elevated delinquencies and a decline in market conditions, partially offset by a decrease in the allowance on revolving charge accounts due to write-offs of seasonal financing program accounts and future recoveries expected.

During 2023, the financial services business in Russia met the held for sale criteria. The financing receivables in Russia were reclassified to “Other assets” and the associated allowance for credit losses was reversed. These operations were sold in the second quarter of 2023 (see Note 3). Excluding the portfolio in Russia, the allowance increased in 2023, primarily driven by growth in the retail notes and financing lease portfolios and higher expected losses on turf and construction customer accounts.

Financing Receivables Modifications

We occasionally grant contractual modifications to customers experiencing financial difficulties. Before offering a modification, we evaluate the ability of the customer to meet the modified payment terms. Finance charges continue to accrue during the deferral or extension period except for modifications related to bankruptcy proceedings. Our allowance for credit losses incorporates historical loss information, including the effects of loan modifications with customers. Therefore, additional adjustments to the allowance are generally not recorded upon modification of a loan.

We continue to monitor the performance of financing receivables that are modified with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

The ending amortized cost and performance of financing receivables modified in 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

SECURITIZATION OF FINANCING RECEIVABLES  
SECURITIZATION OF FINANCING RECEIVABLES

12. SECURITIZATION OF FINANCING RECEIVABLES

Our funding strategy includes receivable securitizations, which allows us to receive cash for financing receivables immediately. While these securitization programs are administered in various forms, they are accomplished in the following basic steps:

1.We transfer financing receivables into a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity (SPE).
2.The SPE issues debt to investors. The debt is secured by the financing receivables.
3.Investors are paid back based on cash receipts from the financing receivables.

As part of Step 1, these receivables are legally isolated from the claims of our general creditors. This ensures cash receipts from the financing receivables are accessible to pay back securitization program investors. The structure of these transactions does not meet the accounting criteria for a sale of receivables. As a result, they are accounted for as secured borrowings. The receivables and borrowings remain on our balance sheet and are separately reported as “Financing receivables securitized – net” and “Short-term securitization borrowings,” respectively. SPEs are consolidated as VIEs when we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the SPEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the SPEs.

We offer securitization programs to institutional investors and other financial institutions through public issuances or privately through a revolving credit agreement. At November 2, 2025, the revolving agreement had a financing limit of up to $2,500. At November 2, 2025, $1,563 of securitization borrowings were outstanding under the revolving agreement. In November 2025, the agreement was renewed for one year with a capacity of $2,500.

Restricted cash held by the SPE serves as a credit enhancement. It would be used to satisfy receivable payment deficiencies, if any. The cash restriction is removed either after all secured borrowing payments are made or proportionally as the secured receivables are collected and the borrowing obligations are reduced.

The components of securitization programs were as follows at the end of 2025 and 2024:

The decrease in the weighted-average interest rates of notes payable to banks is primarily the result of lower borrowing rates on funding in Argentina.

Worldwide lines of credit totaled $12.2 billion at November 2, 2025, consisting primarily of:

a 364-day credit facility agreement of $5.0 billion, expiring in the second quarter of 2026
a credit facility agreement of $3.25 billion, expiring in the second quarter of 2028
a credit facility agreement of $3.25 billion, expiring in the second quarter of 2030

At November 2, 2025, $7.3 billion of these worldwide lines of credit were unused. For the purpose of computing the unused credit lines, commercial paper and short-term bank borrowings were considered to constitute utilization. These credit agreements require Capital Corporation and other parts of our business to maintain certain performance metrics and liquidity targets. All requirements in the credit agreements have been met during the periods included in the consolidated financial statements.

The 4.15% notes due 2030 listed above were issued on October 9, 2025, by Deere Funding Canada Corporation (DFCC), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary. These notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Deere & Company and, therefore, rank equally with all our outstanding notes and debentures. DFCC financial results were not material to our consolidated financial statements or consolidated results of operations, and as a result, we have elected to exclude summarized financial information.

Medium-term notes due through 2034 are offered by prospectus and issued at fixed and variable rates. All outstanding notes and debentures are senior unsecured borrowings and rank equally with each other.

The principal balances and weighted-average interest rates of the 4.15% notes due 2030 and the medium-term notes at the end of 2025 and 2024 follow:

A standard warranty is provided as assurance that the equipment will function as intended. The standard warranty period varies by product and region.

In certain international markets, we provide guarantees to banks for the retail financing of John Deere equipment. At the end of 2025, the notional value of these guarantees was $135. We may repossess the equipment collateralizing the receivables. At November 2, 2025, the accrued losses under these agreements were not material. We also had guarantees to a VIE (see Note 1) totaling $157 at the end of 2025.

We also had other miscellaneous contingent liabilities and guarantees totaling approximately $100 at November 2, 2025. The accrued liability for these contingencies was $25 at November 2, 2025.

At November 2, 2025, we had commitments of approximately $415 for the construction and acquisition of property and equipment. Also, at November 2, 2025, we had restricted assets of $323, classified as “Other assets,” which includes restricted cash.

We have commitments to extend credit to customers. The commitments are in the form of lines of credit and other pre-approved credit arrangements. We have the right to cancel or amend the terms of these commitments at any time. These commitments are not expected to be fully drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts likely do not represent a future cash requirement. The commitments to extend credit at November 2, 2025, were:

$13.3 billion to John Deere dealers
$34.2 billion to retail customers

We are subject to various unresolved legal actions. The total accrued losses on unresolved legal matters were approximately $175 as of November 2, 2025 (see Note 4 “Litigation Accrual” item). The accrual is based on management’s best estimate of probable losses as the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. We believe the reasonably possible range of losses in excess of the recorded accruals for these unresolved legal actions would not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. The most prevalent legal claims relate to:

antitrust matters (including class action litigation)
product liability (including asbestos-related liability)
employment
patent

The number of common shares we are authorized to issue is 1.2 billion. The common shares issued at November 2, 2025, October 27, 2024, and October 29, 2023, were 536.4 million. 270.4 million common shares were outstanding at November 2, 2025, with the remainder held in treasury stock.

The number of authorized preferred shares is 9 million. No preferred shares have been issued.

In December 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $18.0 billion of common stock. At the end of fiscal year 2025, this repurchase program had $7.9 billion (17.1 million shares based on our fiscal year-end closing NYSE common stock price of $461.63 per share) remaining to be repurchased. Repurchases of our common stock under this plan are made from time to time, at our discretion, and may be made in the open market or in private transactions, under accelerated share repurchase plans or programs pursuant to agreements with third-party financial institutions.

22. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

We grant restricted stock units (RSU) and stock options (collectively, equity incentive awards) to certain employees. RSUs are also granted to nonemployee directors for their services as directors. RSUs consist of service-based, performance/service-based, and market/service-based awards.

The Long-Term Incentive Cash granted to certain employees is accounted for as share-based compensation. This incentive includes a performance metric based, in part, on the price of our shares.

We are authorized to grant shares for equity incentive awards. The outstanding shares authorized were 13.7 million at November 2, 2025. We currently use shares that have been repurchased through our stock repurchase program to satisfy share option exercises and RSU conversions. The stock awards vesting periods and the dividend equivalents earned during the vesting period follow:

Stock options expire ten years from the grant date. Performance/service-based awards are subject to a performance metric based on our compound annual revenue growth rate, compared to a benchmark group of companies. Market/service-based awards are subject to a market related metric based on total shareholder return, compared to a benchmark group of companies. The performance/service-based units and market/service-based units award common stock in a range of zero to 200% for each unit granted based on the level of the metric achieved.

The fair value of stock options and RSUs is determined using our closing price on the grant date. The fair value of the

market/service-based RSUs is determined using a Monte Carlo model. Awards are expensed over the shorter of the award vesting period or the employee’s retirement eligibility period. The performance/service-based units’ expense is adjusted quarterly for the probable number of shares to be awarded. We recognize the effect of award forfeitures as an adjustment to compensation expense in the period the forfeiture occurs.

The assumptions used in determining the fair value of the market/service-based RSUs granted in 2025 and 2024 using the Monte Carlo valuation model follow:

24. LEASES

We are both a lessee and a lessor. We lease for our own use warehouse facilities, office space, production equipment, information technology equipment, and vehicles. The financial services operations lease equipment produced or sold by us and a limited amount of other equipment to retail customers. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at the contract inception.

Lessee

The amounts of the lease liability and right of use asset are determined at lease commencement and are based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The lease payments are discounted using our incremental borrowing rate since the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. We determine the incremental borrowing rate for each lease based on the lease term and the economic environment of the country where the asset will be used, adjusted as if the borrowings were collateralized. Leases with contractual periods greater than one year and that do not meet the finance lease criteria are classified as operating leases.

We have elected to combine lease and nonlease components, such as maintenance and utilities costs included in a lease contract, for all asset classes. Leases with an initial term of one year or less are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in short-term lease expense. Variable lease expense includes warehouse facilities leases with payments based on utilization exceeding contractual minimum amounts and leases with payments indexed to inflation when the index changes after lease commencement.

We lease equipment manufactured or sold by us through John Deere Financial. Sales-type and direct financing leases are reported in “Financing receivables net.” Operating leases are reported in “Equipment on operating leases net.”

At the end of the majority of leases, the lessee has the option to purchase the underlying equipment for the contractual residual value or return it to the dealer. If the equipment is returned to the dealer, the dealer also has the option to purchase the equipment or return it to us for remarketing.

We estimate the residual values for operating leases at lease inception based on several factors, including lease term, expected hours of usage, historical wholesale sale prices, return experience, intended use of the equipment, market dynamics and trends, and dealer residual guarantees. We review residual value estimates during the lease term and test the carrying value of our operating lease assets for impairment when events or circumstances necessitate. The depreciation is adjusted on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term if residual value estimates change.

Lease agreements include usage limits and specifications on machine condition, which allow us to assess lessees for excess use or damages to the underlying equipment.

We have elected to combine lease and nonlease components. The nonlease components relate to preventative maintenance and extended warranty agreements financed by the retail customer. We have also elected to report consideration related to sales and value added taxes net of the related tax expense. Property taxes on leased assets are recorded on a gross basis in “Finance and interest income” and “Other operating expenses.” Variable lease revenues relate to property taxes on leased assets in certain markets and late fees.

Lease payments from operating leases are recorded as income on a straight-line method over the lease terms. Operating lease assets are recorded at cost and depreciated to their estimated residual value on a straight-line method over the terms of the leases. The corresponding depreciation expense was $925 in 2025, $874 in 2024, and $853 in 2023.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS  
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

25. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To determine fair value, we use various methods including market and income approaches. We utilize valuation models and techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs. The models are industry-standard models that consider various assumptions including time values and yield curves as well as other economic measures. These valuation techniques are consistently applied.

Level 1 measurements consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 measurements include significant other observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves; and other market-corroborated inputs. Level 3 measurements include significant unobservable inputs.

Fair values of the financing receivables and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates that were issued long-term were based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by us for similar financing receivables or at current market interest rates. The fair values of the remaining receivables approximated the carrying amounts.

Fair values of long-term borrowings and short-term securitization borrowings were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk, or on the discounted values of their related cash flows at current market interest rates. Certain long-term borrowings have been swapped to current variable interest rates. The carrying values of these long-term borrowings include adjustments related to fair value hedges.

The fair values of financial instruments that do not approximate the carrying values at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, follow:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies we use to measure certain financial instruments on the balance sheets at fair value. For more information on asset impairments, see Notes 3 and 4.

Marketable securities – The portfolio of investments is valued on a market approach (matrix pricing model) in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, credit risk, and prepayment speeds. Funds are valued using the fund’s net asset value, based on the fair value of the underlying securities.

Derivatives Our derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate contracts (swaps), foreign currency exchange contracts (futures, forwards, and swaps), and cross-currency interest rate contracts (swaps). The portfolio is valued based on an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates for currencies.

Deferred consideration – The total purchase price consideration for three former Deere-Hitachi joint venture factories acquired in 2022 included supply agreement price increases beyond inflation adjustments. This deferred consideration will be paid as we purchase Deere-branded excavators, components, and service parts from Hitachi under the agreement with a duration that ranges from 5 to 30 years after the acquisition date. The deferred consideration balance is reduced as purchases are made and valued on a discounted cash flow approach using market rates.

Property and equipment – net – The valuations were based on the cost approach. The inputs include reproduction cost estimates adjusted for physical deterioration and functional obsolescence (see Note 4).

Other intangible assets – net – The impairment of customer relationships and tradename of our external overseas battery operations was measured using an income approach (see Note 4).

Other assets (Investments in unconsolidated affiliates) – Other than temporary impairments of investments are measured as the difference between the implied fair value and the carrying value of the investments. The estimated fair value for privately held entities is determined by an income approach (discounted cash flows), which includes inputs such as interest rates and margins (see Note 4).

Assets held for sale The disposal group was measured at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Fair value was based on the probable sale price. The inputs included estimates of the final sale price (see Note 4). The gain recorded in 2025 represents a reversal of the prior period valuation allowance, not in excess of the cumulative valuation allowance recorded on “Assets held for sale.”

Counterparty Risk and Collateral

Derivative instruments are subject to significant concentrations of credit risk to the banking sector. We manage individual counterparty exposure by setting limits that consider the credit rating of the counterparty, the credit default swap spread of the counterparty, and other financial commitments and exposures between us and the counterparty banks. All interest rate derivatives are transacted under International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) documentation. Some of these agreements include credit support provisions. Each master agreement permits the net settlement of amounts owed in the event of default or termination.

Certain of our derivative agreements contain credit support provisions that may require us to post collateral based on the size of the net liability positions and credit ratings. The aggregate fair value of all derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, was $356 and $562, respectively. In accordance with the limits established in these agreements, we posted $62 and $245 of cash collateral at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, respectively. In addition, we paid $8 of collateral that was outstanding at both November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, to participate in an international futures market to hedge currency exposure, not included in the following table.

Derivatives are recorded without offsetting for netting arrangements or collateral. The impact on the derivative assets and liabilities related to netting arrangements and collateral at November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, follows:

SEGMENT DATA

27. SEGMENT DATA

Our operations are organized and reported in four business segments: Production & Precision Agriculture, Small Agriculture & Turf, Construction & Forestry, and Financial Services. This presentation is consistent with how the chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who also serves as the Chairman of the Board, assesses the performance of the segments and makes decisions regarding resource allocations. Each segment has a group president responsible for managing financial performance and executing strategic initiatives.

Production & Precision Agriculture – PPA segment defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions to unlock customer value for production-scale growers of large grains, small grains, cotton, and sugarcane. The segment’s primary products include four-wheel-drive (4WD), track, and row crop tractors; harvesters; cotton pickers and strippers; sugarcane harvesters and loaders; soil preparation, tillage, seeding, application, crop care equipment; and related attachments and service parts.
Small Agriculture & Turf – SAT segment defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions to unlock customer value for dairy and livestock producers, high-value and small acreage crop producers, and turf and utility customers. The segment’s primary products include specialty, utility, and compact tractors; as well as self-propelled forage harvesters and attachments; hay and forage equipment; rotary mowers; utility vehicles; riding and commercial lawn equipment; golf course equipment; utility vehicles; and related attachments and service parts.
Construction & Forestry – CF segment defines, develops, and delivers a broad range of machines and technology solutions organized along the earthmoving, forestry, and roadbuilding production systems. The segment’s primary products include backhoe loaders, crawler dozers and loaders, four-wheel-drive and compact wheel loaders, excavators, skid-steer loaders, motor graders, milling machines, pavers, rollers, log harvesters, and related attachments and service parts.

The products and services produced by the segments above are primarily marketed through independent retail dealer networks and major retail outlets. For roadbuilding products in certain markets outside the U.S. and Canada, the products are sold through company-owned sales and service subsidiaries.

Financial Services – FS segment finances sales and leases by John Deere dealers of new and used production and precision agriculture equipment, small agriculture and turf equipment, and construction and forestry equipment. In addition, the FS segment provides wholesale financing to dealers of the foregoing equipment, finances retail revolving charge accounts, and offers extended equipment warranties.

The CEO evaluates the performance of the business segments based on operating profit, which for FS includes interest income and expense, and on identifiable segment operating assets. Segment operating profit and operating assets are measured using

accounting policies consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements. Because of integrated manufacturing operations and common administrative and marketing support, a substantial number of allocations must be made to determine operating segment data. Intersegment transactions are primarily made between the FS segment and PPA, SAT, and CF segments, and are recognized at current market prices. See Notes 5 and 14 for geographic information.

Total identifiable assets assigned to the equipment operations operating segments are those the segments actively manage, consisting of trade receivables, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, and certain other assets. Corporate assets are managed on a consolidated basis, including cash and cash equivalents, retirement benefit net assets, goodwill, and deferred income tax assets. Financial services assets include cash and cash equivalents, retirement benefits, and deferred income tax assets that are managed by the segment.

Segment operating profit and identifiable operating assets are the key metrics used by the CEO to monitor results against forecast and prior period results, and to determine variable compensation for employees at all levels. To manage operations and allocate human and capital resources, the CEO receives monthly reports including sales and revenues, operating profit, and assets by operating segment. Interest income and expenses are significant to the FS operations.

Information relating to operations by operating segment follows for the years ended November 2, 2025, October 27, 2024, and October 29, 2023.

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]

Cybersecurity is an integral part of our overall risk management program. We take a comprehensive approach by incorporating industry best practices to guide and evaluate our cybersecurity strategy and posture, involving key stakeholders in oversight and decision making, and assessing the program regularly within a dynamically changing environment. We leverage a multifaceted approach to cybersecurity including measures designed to prevent, detect, and respond to cyberthreats while monitoring and adapting to the evolving threat and technology landscapes.

Risk Management and Strategy

Our cybersecurity program is designed to identify, protect, detect, respond to, and recover from cybersecurity threats and incidents with the goal of protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information. We use a risk-based, multi-layered information security strategy to assess, identify, and manage risks from cybersecurity threats. Our Cybersecurity Team meets frequently to monitor, assess, and address cybersecurity threats and incidents. We also work with third parties to assess the maturity of our cybersecurity program, leveraging the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF).

We also utilize third-party service providers as a normal part of our business operations. We have established processes to support the Company in identifying and managing cybersecurity risks associated with the use of third parties, which include the completion of due diligence before engaging with a third-party, controls for response to mitigate any significant risks, and assessments and reviews throughout the relationship. Monitoring such risks and threats is integrated into our overall risk management program.

Also, as part of the program, we periodically conduct cybersecurity awareness training including phishing simulations as well as e-learning for employees. We maintain cybersecurity policies, standards, and procedures, which include a cyber incident response plan. These policies and procedures are regularly evaluated and refined with strategies and protocols designed to adapt to changing regulations and emerging security risks. Regular exercises, tests, incident simulations, and system assessments are conducted to discover and address potential vulnerabilities and improve decision-making, prioritization, monitoring, and overall response effectiveness. As part of our incident response plan, the Cybersecurity Team uses an established protocol to assess the severity of cybersecurity incidents. In addition, a cross-functional Cybersecurity Incident Response Team is responsible for cybersecurity incident oversight and response, as needed, depending on incident severity. Our cyber incident response plan also includes an escalation process to relevant senior management and/or members of the Board if a cybersecurity incident meets specific rating criteria to prompt response to attempt to minimize potential disruptions and protect the integrity of our operations.

Based on the information available as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, cybersecurity risks, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incident, have not materially affected, and are not reasonably likely to materially affect, our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. However, we have seen an increase in cyberattack volume, frequency, and sophistication in the digital environment and future incidents could have a material impact on our business, operations, or financial condition.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Nov. 02, 2025
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS  
Consolidation, Policy

The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of all companies in which Deere & Company has a controlling interest. Certain variable interest entities (VIEs) are consolidated since we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. When we have significant influence in an unconsolidated affiliated company (generally 20% to 50% ownership), we record our investment at cost, adjusted for our share of profit or loss after acquisition, and further reduced for any dividends (equity method of accounting). Other investments (generally less than 20% ownership) are recorded at cost.

Fiscal Period, Policy

We use a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the last Sunday in the reporting period, which generally occurs near the end of October. An additional week is included in the fourth fiscal quarter every five or six years to realign our fiscal quarters with the calendar. Fiscal year 2025 contained 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks in fiscal years 2024 and 2023. The fiscal year ends for 2025, 2024, and 2023 were November 2, 2025, October 27, 2024, and October 29, 2023, respectively. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years, quarters, or months refer to our fiscal years and the associated periods in those fiscal years.

Use of Estimates in Financial Statements, Policy

Certain accounting policies require management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the amounts reflected in the financial statements and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition, Policy

General

Sales of equipment and service parts are recognized when we transfer control of the good to the independent customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. In most situations, the independent customer is a dealer, which subsequently sells the equipment and service parts purchased from us to a retail customer, who can finance the equipment with the financial services segment or another source of financing. In some situations, we sell directly to a retail customer. The term “customer” includes both dealers and retail customers to whom we make direct sales.

Interest-Free Periods and Past-Due Interest

We charge dealers interest on outstanding balances from the earlier of when goods are sold to a retail customer by the dealer or the expiration of the interest-free period granted at the time of the sale to the dealer. Interest-free periods are determined based on the type of equipment sold and the time of year of the sale. These periods range from one to twelve months for most equipment. Interest-free periods may not be extended. Interest charged may

not be forgiven, and past due interest rates are charged at higher rates. If the interest-free or below market interest rate period exceeds one year, we adjust the expected sales revenue for the effects of the time value of money using a current market interest rate. The revenue related to the financing component is recognized in “Finance and interest income” using the interest method. We do not adjust the sales price to account for a financing component if the expected interest-free or below market period is one year or less.

Right of Return

Generally, no right of return exists on sales of equipment. Dealers cannot cancel purchases after we recognize a sale and are responsible for payment even if the equipment is not sold to a retail customer. Service parts and certain attachment returns are estimable and accrued at the time a sale is recognized. The estimated returns are based on historical return rates, current dealer inventory levels, and current economic conditions. The estimated returns are recorded in “Other assets” for the inventory value of estimated returns, adjusted for restocking fees. The estimated dealer refund liability, adjusted for restocking fees, is recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses.”

Remanufacturing

We remanufacture used engines and components (cores) that are sold to dealers and retail customers for maintenance and repair parts. Revenue for remanufactured components is recognized using the same criteria as other parts sales. When a remanufactured part is sold, we collect a deposit that is repaid if the customer returns a core that meets certain specifications within a defined time period. The deposit received from the customer is recognized as a liability in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” and the used component that is expected to be returned is recognized in “Other assets.” When a customer returns a core, the deposit is repaid, the liability reversed, and the returned core is recorded in inventory to be remanufactured and sold to another customer. If a core is not returned within the required time, the deposit is recognized as revenue in “Net sales,” and the cost of the core is recorded as an expense in “Cost of sales.”

Bundled Technology

Certain equipment is sold with precision guidance, telematics, and other information gathering and analyzing capabilities. These technology solutions require hardware, software, and may include an obligation to provide services for a period of time. These solutions are mostly bundled with the sale of the equipment but can also be purchased or renewed separately. The revenue related to the hardware and embedded software is recognized at the time of the equipment sale and recorded in “Net sales.” The revenue for the future services and usage-based software is deferred and recognized over the service period. The deferred revenue is recorded as a contract liability in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses.”

Financing Revenue and Origination Costs

Financing revenue and deferred costs on the origination of financing receivables are recorded over the lives of the related receivables using the interest method. Deferred costs are

recognized as a reduction to “Finance and interest income.” Income and deferred costs on the origination of operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the scheduled lease terms in “Finance and interest income.”

Sales Incentives

We offer sales incentive programs to promote the sale of our products from the dealer to the retail customer. At the time of the sale to a dealer, we record an estimated cost for the sales incentive programs as a reduction to the sales price. The estimated cost is based on historical data, announced and expected incentive programs, field inventory levels, and forecasted sales volumes. The final cost of these programs is determined at the end of the measurement period for volume-based incentives or when the dealer sells the equipment to a retail customer. One type of sales incentive program offered to dealers is pool funds in which we award dealers funds based on new equipment sales. Dealers can use these funds to incentivize sales from the dealer to the end customer. Pool funds, as well as some other incentive programs, are recorded in “Trade accounts and notes receivable – net” when we have the contractual right and the intent to offset against the existing dealer receivables. Actual cost differences from the original cost estimate are recognized in “Net sales.”

As permitted, we elected only to disclose remaining performance obligations with an original contract duration greater than one year. The contracts with an expected duration of one year or less are for sales to dealers and retail customers for equipment, service parts, repair services, and certain telematics services.

Product Warranties, Policy

For equipment and service parts sales, we provide a standard warranty. At the time a sale is recognized, the estimated future warranty costs are recorded. The warranty liability is estimated based on historical warranty claims rate experience and the estimated amount of equipment still under warranty. The historical claims rate is primarily determined by a review of five-year claims costs while also taking into consideration current quality developments. The amount of equipment still under warranty is estimated based on dealer inventories and retail sales.

Extended Product Warranty, Policy

We also offer extended warranty arrangements for purchase at the customer’s option. The premiums for extended warranties are recognized in “Other income” primarily in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred over the contract period. The unamortized extended warranty premiums (deferred revenue) are recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” (see Note 18).

Sales and Transaction Taxes, Policy

We collect and remit taxes for revenue producing transactions as necessary based on various tax laws. These taxes include sales, use, value-added, and some excise taxes. We elected to exclude these taxes from the determination of the sales price. These taxes are not included in revenues.

Contract Costs, Policy

Incremental costs of obtaining an equipment revenue contract are recognized as an expense when incurred since the amortization period would be one year or less.

Advertising Costs, Policy

Advertising costs are charged to “Selling, administrative and general expenses” as incurred. Advertising costs were $235 in 2025, $230 in 2024, and $244 in 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization, Policy

Property and equipment, capitalized software, and other intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. These assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Equipment on operating leases is depreciated over the terms of the leases using the straight-line method. Property and equipment expenditures for new and upgraded products, increased capacity, and the replacement or major renewal of significant items are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy

We consider investments with purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash, Policy

Restricted cash includes cash and cash equivalents that are restricted from withdrawal or use under the terms of securitization agreements (see Note 12) and cash held to meet governmental and legal requirements. Restricted cash is recorded in “Other assets.”

Marketable Securities, Policy

We have investments in debt and equity securities that are recorded in “Marketable securities,” which include investments in debt securities that are more than three months to maturity at the date of purchase. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale at the time of purchase and at each balance sheet date. Most of our debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, reported in other comprehensive income. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Equity securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in “Other income.” We generally determine realized gains or losses on sales of investments based on specific identification and include them in “Other income” on the statements of consolidated income (see Notes 10 and 25).

Receivables, Policy

All financing and trade receivables are reported on the balance sheet at outstanding principal and accrued interest, adjusted for:

write-offs
allowance for credit losses
unamortized deferred fees or costs on originated financing receivables
Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality, Policy

The allowance is a reduction to the receivable balances, and the provision is recorded in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of our receivable portfolio. Non-performing receivables are included in the estimate of expected credit losses. The allowance is measured on a collective basis for receivables with similar risk characteristics. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Risk characteristics include:

finance product category
market
geography
credit risk
remaining balance

We utilize the following loss forecast models to estimate expected credit losses:

Linear regression models are used for large and complex retail customer receivable pools, which represent more than 90% of retail customer receivables. These statistical models utilize independent variables, or predictive features, to estimate lifetime default rates, which are subsequently adjusted for expected recoveries to arrive at lifetime credit loss estimates. Independent variables included in the models vary by product, but can include credit quality at time of application, remaining account balance, delinquency status, and various economic factors, such as commodity prices, employment levels, and housing data. The economic factors include forward-looking conditions over our reasonable and supportable forecast period. In the fourth quarter of 2024, we transitioned from the use of transition matrix models to linear regression models to estimate expected credit losses. This change in methodology did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Weighted average remaining maturity (WARM) models are used for smaller and less complex retail customer receivable pools.
Historical loss rate models are used on wholesale receivables, with consideration of current economic conditions and dealer financial risk.

Management reviews each model’s output quarterly, and qualitative adjustments are incorporated as necessary (see Note 11).

Financing Receivables Credit Quality Analysis

We monitor the credit quality of financing receivables based on delinquency status, defined as follows:

Past due balances represent any payments 30 days or more past the due date.
Non-performing financing receivables represent receivables for which we have stopped accruing finance income. This generally occurs when receivables are 90 days delinquent.
Write-offs generally occur when receivables are 120 days delinquent. In these situations, the estimated uncollectible amount is written off to the allowance for credit losses.

Finance income for non-performing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Accrual of finance income is resumed when the receivable becomes contractually current and collections are reasonably assured.

We monitor the economy as part of the allowance setting process, including potential impacts of the agricultural market business cycle, global trade policies, and interest rates. Adjustments to the allowance are incorporated, as necessary.

Financing Receivables Modifications

We occasionally grant contractual modifications to customers experiencing financial difficulties. Before offering a modification, we evaluate the ability of the customer to meet the modified payment terms. Finance charges continue to accrue during the deferral or extension period except for modifications related to bankruptcy proceedings. Our allowance for credit losses incorporates historical loss information, including the effects of loan modifications with customers. Therefore, additional adjustments to the allowance are generally not recorded upon modification of a loan.

Long-Lived Assets, Goodwill, and Other Intangible Asset Impairment, Policy

We evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets (including equipment on operating leases, property and equipment, goodwill, and other intangible assets) when events or circumstances warrant such a review. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset is considered impaired, the long-lived asset is written down to its fair value (see Notes 4 and 25).

Goodwill and unamortized intangible assets are tested for impairment annually at the end of the third quarter of each fiscal year, and more often if events or circumstances may have caused the fair value to fall below the carrying value. Goodwill is allocated and reviewed for impairment by reporting unit. Goodwill is allocated to the reporting unit in which the business that created the goodwill resides. To test for goodwill impairment, the carrying value of each reporting unit is compared with its fair value. If the carrying value of the goodwill is considered impaired, the impairment is measured as the reporting unit’s carrying value minus the fair value. We determined that there was no impairment to goodwill during the annual goodwill impairment review.

Derivative Financial Instruments, Policy

It is our policy to use derivative transactions only to manage exposures from the normal course of business. We do not execute derivative transactions for the purpose of creating speculative positions or trading. Our financial services operations have interest rate and foreign currency exposure between (a) the receivable or lease portfolio and (b) how those portfolios are funded. We also have foreign currency exposures at some of our foreign and domestic operations related to buying, selling, and financing in currencies other than the functional currencies. In addition, we have interest rate and foreign currency exposure at certain equipment operations units for sales incentive programs.

All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral received or paid is not offset against the derivative fair values on the balance sheets. The cash flows from the derivative contracts are recorded in operating activities in the statements of consolidated cash flows. Each derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, fair value hedge, net investment hedge, or remains undesignated.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded as follows:

Cash flow hedges: Recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and reclassified to the income statement when the effects of the item being hedged are recognized in the income statement. These amounts offset the effects of interest rate changes on the related borrowings in interest expense.
Fair value hedges: Recorded in interest expense, and the gains or losses are offset by the fair value gains or losses on the hedged items (fixed-rate borrowings), which are also recorded in interest expense.
Net investment hedges: Changes attributable to spot rate changes are recorded in OCI within “Cumulative translation adjustment” to offset the effects of foreign currency changes on the related net investments in foreign subsidiaries. This amount is reclassified to the income statement when the net investment in the foreign subsidiary is sold or substantially liquidated. The interest accrual for periodic cash settlements of cross-currency swaps is recorded in interest expense.
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Changes in the fair value of undesignated hedges are recognized as they occur in the income statement.

All designated hedges are formally documented as to the relationship with the hedged item as well as the risk-management strategy. Both at inception and on an ongoing basis, the hedging instrument is assessed for its effectiveness. Net investment hedge effectiveness is assessed using the spot method. If and when a derivative is determined not to be highly effective as a hedge, the underlying hedged transaction is no longer likely to occur, the hedge designation is removed, or the derivative is terminated, hedge accounting is discontinued (see Note 26).

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest, Policy

We record redeemable noncontrolling interest at the greater of the redemption fair value or the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest adjusted for income or loss and changes in other

comprehensive income components. We have a redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the acquisition of Kreisel Electric Inc. (Kreisel) in 2022. The transaction included a call option to purchase the remaining ownership interest in Kreisel in 2027. The minority interest holders also have a put option that would require us to purchase the holders’ ownership interest in 2027. The put and call options cannot be separated from the noncontrolling interest. Due to the redemption features, the minority interest is classified as redeemable noncontrolling interest in our consolidated balance sheets.

Foreign Currency Translation, Policy

The functional currencies for most of our foreign operations are their respective local currencies. The assets and liabilities of these operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at the end of the period. The revenues and expenses are translated at weighted-average rates for the period. The gains or losses from these translations are recorded in OCI.

Foreign currency gains or losses and foreign exchange components of derivative contracts are included in net income, with trade flow activity recorded in “Cost of sales,” sales incentive activity recorded in “Net sales,” and all other activity recorded in “Other operating expenses.” The pretax net loss for foreign exchange in 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $60, $63, and $159, respectively. Foreign exchange components of net investment derivative contracts are included in OCI within “Cumulative translation adjustment.”

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy

We closely monitor all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and other authoritative guidance. We adopted the following standards in 2025, none of which had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements:

No. 2023-07 — Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

No. 2023-05 — Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement

No. 2022-03 — Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions

Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides updated guidance on how to recognize, measure, and present government grants. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our interim reporting for fiscal year 2030, with early adoption permitted. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which provides updated guidance for the capitalization of internal-use software. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our interim reporting for fiscal year 2029, with early adoption

permitted. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which expands disclosures about specific expense categories presented on the face of the income statement. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2028 and interim periods thereafter. We are assessing the effect of ASU 2024-03 on our related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands disclosures in an entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and cash taxes paid both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The ASU will be effective for us beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2026. We are assessing the effect of this update on our related disclosures.

We will also adopt the following standards in future periods, none of which are expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. All other accounting standards issued but not yet adopted were not applicable to us.

No. 2025-11 — Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements

No. 2025-09 — Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements

No. 2025-07 — Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract

No. 2023-06 — Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative

Receivables, Cash Flow Policy

All cash flows from receivables related to sales are included in operating activities. This includes all changes in trade accounts and notes receivables, as well as some financing receivables (see Note 11). Financing receivables that are related to loans on equipment sold by independent dealers are included in investing activities.

Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Policy We have several funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans. These plans cover U.S. employees and certain foreign employees. The measurement date of our plans is October 31.

The discount rate assumptions used to determine the pension and OPEB obligations for all periods presented were based on hypothetical AA yield curves represented by a series of annualized individual discount rates. These discount rates represent the rates at which our benefit obligations could effectively be settled at the October 31 measurement dates.

The mortality assumptions for the 2025 and 2024 U.S. benefit plan obligations used the tables based on the plan’s mortality experience and the most recent scales issued by the Society of Actuaries. The 2025 and 2024 mortality assumptions included an adjustment to the scale related to COVID for some plans.

Actuarial gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). To the extent unamortized gains and losses exceed 10% of the higher of the market-related value of assets or the benefit obligation, the excess is amortized as a component of net periodic (benefit) cost over the remaining service period of the active participants. For plans in which all or almost all of the plan’s participants are inactive, the amortization period is the remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants.

A market related value of plan assets is used to calculate the expected return on assets. The market related value recognizes changes in the fair value of pension plan assets systematically over a five-year period. The market related value of the health care plan assets equals fair value.

The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets reflects management’s expectations of long-term average rates of return on funds invested to provide for benefits included in the projected benefit obligations. The expected return is based on the outlook for inflation and for returns in multiple asset classes, while also considering historical returns, asset allocation, and investment strategy. Our approach has emphasized the long-term nature of the return estimate such that the return assumption is not changed significantly unless there are fundamental changes in capital markets that affect our expectations for returns over an extended period of time (i.e., 10 to 20 years).
Unremitted Earnings in Foreign Investment, Policy

At November 2, 2025, undistributed profits of subsidiaries outside the U.S. of approximately $8.2 billion are considered indefinitely reinvested. Determination of the amount of a foreign withholding tax liability on these unremitted earnings is not practicable.

Income Taxes, Policy We determine our income tax provision using the asset and liability method.Deferred income taxes arise because there are certain items that are treated differently for financial accounting than for income tax reporting purposes.

It is our policy to recognize interest related to income taxes in “Interest expense” and “Finance and interest income” and recognize penalties related to income taxes in “Selling, administrative and general expenses.” Income tax related interest and penalties were not significant in 2025, 2024, or 2023. At November 2, 2025, and October 27, 2024, liabilities for income tax related interest and penalties were not significant.

Securitization of Financing Receivables, Policy

Our funding strategy includes receivable securitizations, which allows us to receive cash for financing receivables immediately. While these securitization programs are administered in various forms, they are accomplished in the following basic steps:

1.We transfer financing receivables into a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity (SPE).
2.The SPE issues debt to investors. The debt is secured by the financing receivables.
3.Investors are paid back based on cash receipts from the financing receivables.

As part of Step 1, these receivables are legally isolated from the claims of our general creditors. This ensures cash receipts from the financing receivables are accessible to pay back securitization program investors. The structure of these transactions does not meet the accounting criteria for a sale of receivables. As a result, they are accounted for as secured borrowings. The receivables and borrowings remain on our balance sheet and are separately reported as “Financing receivables securitized – net” and “Short-term securitization borrowings,” respectively. SPEs are consolidated as VIEs when we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the SPEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the SPEs.

Inventory Valuation, Policy A majority of inventories owned by us are valued at cost on the “last-in, first-out” (LIFO) basis.
Net Income Per Share, Policy

Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from share-based compensation. The effect of dilutive shares is calculated using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation if they have an anti-dilutive effect in the period.

Share-Based Compensation, Policy

We grant restricted stock units (RSU) and stock options (collectively, equity incentive awards) to certain employees. RSUs are also granted to nonemployee directors for their services as directors. RSUs consist of service-based, performance/service-based, and market/service-based awards.

The fair value of stock options and RSUs is determined using our closing price on the grant date. The fair value of the

market/service-based RSUs is determined using a Monte Carlo model. Awards are expensed over the shorter of the award vesting period or the employee’s retirement eligibility period. The performance/service-based units’ expense is adjusted quarterly for the probable number of shares to be awarded. We recognize the effect of award forfeitures as an adjustment to compensation expense in the period the forfeiture occurs.

The fair value of each stock option award was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial lattice option valuation model.

The risk-free interest rates are based on U.S. Treasury security yields at the time of grant. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from traded call options on our stock. We use historical data to estimate option exercise behavior representing the weighted-average period that options granted are expected to be outstanding.

Lessee Lease, Policy

The amounts of the lease liability and right of use asset are determined at lease commencement and are based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The lease payments are discounted using our incremental borrowing rate since the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. We determine the incremental borrowing rate for each lease based on the lease term and the economic environment of the country where the asset will be used, adjusted as if the borrowings were collateralized. Leases with contractual periods greater than one year and that do not meet the finance lease criteria are classified as operating leases.

Lease and Non-lease Components, Policy We have elected to combine lease and nonlease components, such as maintenance and utilities costs included in a lease contract, for all asset classes.
Short-term lease, Policy Leases with an initial term of one year or less are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in short-term lease expense.
Lessor Leases, Policy

We estimate the residual values for operating leases at lease inception based on several factors, including lease term, expected hours of usage, historical wholesale sale prices, return experience, intended use of the equipment, market dynamics and trends, and dealer residual guarantees. We review residual value estimates during the lease term and test the carrying value of our operating lease assets for impairment when events or circumstances necessitate. The depreciation is adjusted on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term if residual value estimates change.

Lease agreements include usage limits and specifications on machine condition, which allow us to assess lessees for excess use or damages to the underlying equipment.

We have elected to combine lease and nonlease components. The nonlease components relate to preventative maintenance and extended warranty agreements financed by the retail customer. We have also elected to report consideration related to sales and value added taxes net of the related tax expense. Property taxes on leased assets are recorded on a gross basis in “Finance and interest income” and “Other operating expenses.” Variable lease revenues relate to property taxes on leased assets in certain markets and late fees.

At the time of accepting a lease that qualifies as a sales-type or direct financing lease, we record the gross amount of lease payments receivable, estimated residual value of the leased equipment, and unearned finance income. The unearned finance income is recognized as revenue over the lease term using the interest method.

Revenue Recognition, Lessor Leases Policy

Lease payments from operating leases are recorded as income on a straight-line method over the lease terms. Operating lease assets are recorded at cost and depreciated to their estimated residual value on a straight-line method over the terms of the leases. The corresponding depreciation expense was $925 in 2025, $874 in 2024, and $853 in 2023.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To determine fair value, we use various methods including market and income approaches. We utilize valuation models and techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs. The models are industry-standard models that consider various assumptions including time values and yield curves as well as other economic measures. These valuation techniques are consistently applied.

Fair values of the financing receivables and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates that were issued long-term were based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by us for similar financing receivables or at current market interest rates.Fair values of long-term borrowings and short-term securitization borrowings were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk, or on the discounted values of their related cash flows at current market interest rates.The carrying values of these long-term borrowings include adjustments related to fair value hedges.
Segment Data, Policy

Our operations are organized and reported in four business segments: Production & Precision Agriculture, Small Agriculture & Turf, Construction & Forestry, and Financial Services. This presentation is consistent with how the chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who also serves as the Chairman of the Board, assesses the performance of the segments and makes decisions regarding resource allocations. Each segment has a group president responsible for managing financial performance and executing strategic initiatives.

Production & Precision Agriculture – PPA segment defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions to unlock customer value for production-scale growers of large grains, small grains, cotton, and sugarcane. The segment’s primary products include four-wheel-drive (4WD), track, and row crop tractors; harvesters; cotton pickers and strippers; sugarcane harvesters and loaders; soil preparation, tillage, seeding, application, crop care equipment; and related attachments and service parts.
Small Agriculture & Turf – SAT segment defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions to unlock customer value for dairy and livestock producers, high-value and small acreage crop producers, and turf and utility customers. The segment’s primary products include specialty, utility, and compact tractors; as well as self-propelled forage harvesters and attachments; hay and forage equipment; rotary mowers; utility vehicles; riding and commercial lawn equipment; golf course equipment; utility vehicles; and related attachments and service parts.
Construction & Forestry – CF segment defines, develops, and delivers a broad range of machines and technology solutions organized along the earthmoving, forestry, and roadbuilding production systems. The segment’s primary products include backhoe loaders, crawler dozers and loaders, four-wheel-drive and compact wheel loaders, excavators, skid-steer loaders, motor graders, milling machines, pavers, rollers, log harvesters, and related attachments and service parts.

The products and services produced by the segments above are primarily marketed through independent retail dealer networks and major retail outlets. For roadbuilding products in certain markets outside the U.S. and Canada, the products are sold through company-owned sales and service subsidiaries.

Financial Services – FS segment finances sales and leases by John Deere dealers of new and used production and precision agriculture equipment, small agriculture and turf equipment, and construction and forestry equipment. In addition, the FS segment provides wholesale financing to dealers of the foregoing equipment, finances retail revolving charge accounts, and offers extended equipment warranties.

The CEO evaluates the performance of the business segments based on operating profit, which for FS includes interest income and expense, and on identifiable segment operating assets. Segment operating profit and operating assets are measured using

accounting policies consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements. Because of integrated manufacturing operations and common administrative and marketing support, a substantial number of allocations must be made to determine operating segment data. Intersegment transactions are primarily made between the FS segment and PPA, SAT, and CF segments, and are recognized at current market prices. See Notes 5 and 14 for geographic information.

Total identifiable assets assigned to the equipment operations operating segments are those the segments actively manage, consisting of trade receivables, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, and certain other assets. Corporate assets are managed on a consolidated basis, including cash and cash equivalents, retirement benefit net assets, goodwill, and deferred income tax assets. Financial services assets include cash and cash equivalents, retirement benefits, and deferred income tax assets that are managed by the segment.

Segment operating profit and identifiable operating assets are the key metrics used by the CEO to monitor results against forecast and prior period results, and to determine variable compensation for employees at all levels. To manage operations and allocate human and capital resources, the CEO receives monthly reports including sales and revenues, operating profit, and assets by operating segment. Interest income and expenses are significant to the FS operations.
