What Changed
Risk factors · Dec 12, 2024 → Dec 18, 2025318 added · 146 removed between the two most recent 10-Ks. The risks a company starts — or stops — disclosing are often the story.
Newly disclosed
- The information contained on our website is not included in, nor incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 12 Table of Contents INFORMATION ABOUT OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS The following are our executive officers as of December 2, 2025.
- For example, in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, we completed a transaction with a Brazilian bank, Banco Bradesco S.A.
- Additional information on the financial services operations is provided in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (MD&A) section in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 9 Table of Contents Environmental Matters We are subject to a variety of local, state, and federal environmental laws and regulations in the U.S., as well as the environmental laws and regulations of other countries in which we conduct business.
- We make the following reports filed by us available, free of charge, on our website under the “Investors” section, including any amendments thereto, as soon as reasonably practicable after they are filed or furnished with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC or Commission) : ● Annual Report on Form 10-K, ● Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and ● Current Reports on Form 8-K.
- Our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of our investments in technology and product design depends on a variety of factors, including: ● the usefulness and competitiveness of our offerings relative to our peers, ● access to radio frequency (RF) spectrum and satellite functionality which enables connectivity for equipment, operations, owners, dealers, and technicians, ● meeting development, production, certification, and regulatory approval schedules, ● adequate intellectual property protections in relevant jurisdictions and our ability to protect our intellectual property, ● achieving cost and production efficiencies, ● availability and quality of product parts and materials, both from our suppliers and internally produced, 19 Table of Contents ● availability of test equipment, ● development of complex software, ● hiring and training of qualified personnel, ● training our dealers and their technicians, ● identification of emerging technological trends, ● compliance requirements regarding data privacy and artificial intelligence, and ● customer acceptance and the pace of adoption of our products and technologies, which with respect to some of our solutions and subscription models, has been slower than we expected.
- In addition, artificial intelligence technologies have rapidly developed, and our business may be adversely affected if we cannot successfully integrate the technology into our internal business processes, products, and services in a timely, cost-effective, compliant, and responsible manner.
- Other risks include: ● difficulties integrating acquisitions with our operations, applying internal control processes to these acquisitions (including those related to cybersecurity), managing strategic investments, assimilating new capabilities to meet the future needs of our businesses, and/or combining business cultures; ● regulatory or compliance exposure until appropriate processes and controls are implemented; ● integration costs and significant attention from management and personnel; ● failing to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions or joint ventures, or realized benefits being significantly delayed, including because the technologies or products acquired may not be complementary or compatible with our business strategy or product portfolio, may not broaden our market position, product portfolio or footprint, or enhance our ability to deliver value to our customers; and ● due diligence evaluations of potential transactions not identifying all of the business, legal, compliance, and financial risks to accurately estimate the impact of a particular acquisition or joint venture, including potential exposure to regulatory sanctions resulting from an acquisition target’s previous activities or costs associated with any quality issues with an acquisition target’s products or services.
- For example, certain of our products, including motors, batteries, and other components, rely on rare earth minerals for their manufacturing, of which a significant majority are sourced from China.
- Backlog Orders The dollar amount of backlog orders as of November 2, 2025, was approximately $4.0 billion for the PPA segment and $1.9 billion for the SAT segment, compared with $5.2 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, at October 27, 2024.
- In fiscal year 2025, we reported a total recordable incident rate of 1.45, a safety metric used to measure the number of recordable incidents per 100 full-time employees per year; and a lost time frequency rate of 0.61, a safety metric used to measure the number of lost time incidents per 100 full-time employees.
- Hindman (50) Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer (2023) - Chief Technology Officer (2020) Rajesh Kalathur (57) President, John Deere Financial, and Chief Information Officer (2022) - President, John Deere Financial and Senior Vice President, Global Information Technology and Chief Financial Officer (2022) - President, John Deere Financial, and Chief Information Officer (2019) Deanna M.
- Kovar (47) President, Worldwide Agriculture & Turf Division, Production & Precision Ag, Sales and Marketing Regions of the Americas and Australia (2025) - President, Worldwide Agriculture & Turf Division, Small Ag & Turf, Sales and Marketing Regions of Europe, CIS, Asia, and Africa (2023) - Vice President, Production Systems, Production & Precision Ag (2023) - Vice President, Production Systems (2020) Felecia J.
No longer disclosed
- For example, expanding export controls or limits on foreign investment can impact global supply of key materials and components, and actions taken within the US-China trade conflict can impact business in China, as well as sales, import/exports, and/or business engagement with Chinese entities globally. ● Trade restrictions, negotiation of new trade agreements, non-tariff trade barriers, local content requirements, and imposition of new or retaliatory tariffs against certain countries or covering certain products, including developments in U.S.-China trade relations, have limited, and could continue to limit, our ability to capitalize on current and future growth opportunities in international markets.
- Other risks include: ● We may encounter difficulties integrating acquisitions with our operations, applying internal control processes to these acquisitions, including those related to cybersecurity, managing strategic investments, assimilating new capabilities to meet the future needs of our businesses, and/or combining business cultures; ● We face regulatory or compliance exposure until appropriate processes and controls are put in place; ● Integrating acquisitions is often costly and may require significant attention from management and personnel; ● We may not realize all the anticipated benefits of acquisitions or joint ventures, or the realized benefits may be significantly delayed; for example, our joint venture with Bradesco in Brazil with respect to Banco John Deere S.A. may not have the expected result of reducing our incremental risk as we aim to grow in the Brazilian market; and ● Due diligence evaluations of potential transactions include business, legal, compliance, and financial reviews with the goal of identifying and evaluating the material risks involved.
- For example, the automation software, digital tools, applications, and analytics utilized in John Deere’s products are designed to improve customer decision-making, such as the automation package on the S7 Series Combines and the computer vision and machine learning technology that enables our See & Spray™ targeted spraying solution.
- These due diligence reviews may not identify all of the issues necessary to accurately estimate the cost and potential risks of a particular acquisition or joint venture, including potential exposure to regulatory sanctions resulting from an acquisition target’s or joint venture partner’s previous activities or costs associated with any quality issues with an acquisition target’s or joint venture’s products or services.
- Despite security measures, including exercises, tests, incident simulations, and system assessments designed to discover and address potential vulnerabilities, our information technology networks and infrastructure have been and may be vulnerable to intrusion, damage, disruptions, or shutdowns due to attacks by cyber criminals, employees’, suppliers’, or dealers’ error or malfeasance, supply chain compromise, disruptions during the process of upgrading or replacing computer software or hardware, power outages, computer viruses, ransomware or other malware, telecommunication or utility failures, terrorist acts, natural disasters, or other events.
- Any such access, acquisition, disclosure, alteration, misuse, or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, government investigations, liability or regulatory penalties, disruption or shut down of our operations, disruption or shut down of our dealers’ and customers’ operations, and damage to our reputation, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
- Any unauthorized access to or control of our products or systems, any loss of data, or any perception that products, systems, or data are vulnerable could result in loss of sales based on customers’ loss of confidence in our products, legal claims or proceedings against us, government investigation, liability, or regulatory penalties, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
- The development of our own artificial intelligence applications may require additional investment in the development of proprietary systems, models, or datasets, which are often complex, may be costly and could impact the results of our operations.
- We are currently subject to a consolidated multidistrict class action lawsuit in the Northern District of Illinois alleging that we have engaged in attempted monopolization, exclusionary conduct, and restraint of the market for repair services for John Deere brand agricultural equipment by limiting repair resources only to our authorized technicians or independent authorized John Deere dealers.
- If regulators sanction Starlink or Starlink is otherwise subject to other issues that impair its ability to operate its SATCOM solution either in Brazil or elsewhere, our rural connectivity offering would be adversely affected or impaired.
- Furthermore, any confidential information that we input into a third-party generative artificial intelligence platform could be leaked or disclosed to others, including sensitive information that is used to train the third parties’ model.
- While we believe the use of these emerging technologies can present significant benefits, it also creates risks and challenges as the use of artificial intelligence is a novel business model without an established track record.
