Deere & Company filed a report describing a senior leadership change. On August 27, 2025, the board elected Cory Reed as President, Lifecycle Solutions, Supply Management, and Customer Success, effective November 3, 2025. On that effective date, he will no longer serve as President of the Worldwide Ag & Turf Division, Production & Precision Ag, Sales and Marketing Regions of the Americas and Australia.
The company later issued a press release on September 2, 2025 covering this election and other senior management changes, which is included as Exhibit 99.1 to the report.
Deere & Company reported operating and market updates for fiscal 2025, describing pressures on demand, liquidity measures, and legal risks. The company expects lower demand for large agricultural equipment in the U.S. and Canada due to high interest rates, elevated used inventory and lower commodity prices, while small-agriculture sales and some regions may be flat to slightly up. Construction and forestry equipment demand is forecasted to be down or flat amid higher rates and softer real estate markets.
The filing discloses financial positions and liquidity tools including commercial paper, term debt, securitization of retail notes, a 364-day $5.0 billion credit facility, and $3.25 billion facilities expiring in 2028 and 2030. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $1.62 per share. It also disclosed an antitrust lawsuit filed by the FTC and several state attorneys general alleging unfair competition regarding repair access, and stated it cannot estimate the potential impact.

Deere & Company furnished a press release announcing its results of operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and made available a presentation for its investor earnings call.
The Form 8-K furnishes Exhibits 99.1 (press release and supplemental financial information) and 99.2 (third quarter 2025 earnings presentation) and includes Exhibit 104 (interactive cover page XBRL). The filing lists securities registered on the New York Stock Exchange, including common stock (DE) and 6.55% debentures due 2028 (DE28), and is signed by the corporate secretary. The 8-K text itself does not present specific financial line items; the detailed results and presentation materials are contained in the furnished exhibits.
Deere & Company (NYSE: DE) filed a Form 8-K on July 7, 2025 to disclose a governance-related event under Item 8.01. The company announced the death of long-standing director Sherry M. Smith, who had served on the board since 2011 and sat on several committees. In response, the Board of Directors immediately reduced its size from 11 to 10 members and appointed R. Preston Feight—CEO of PACCAR and a Deere director since 2022—as Lead Director. No changes to executive management, strategy, or financial outlook were reported, and there were no accompanying financial statements. A press release (Exhibit 99.1) was furnished with additional details.
This disclosure is primarily a corporate governance update; it does not affect the company’s capital structure, operations, or near-term financial performance. For investors, the key considerations are continuity of board oversight, committee re-alignments that may follow, and any future search to fill the vacant seat. Because Deere acted promptly to designate a new Lead Director and maintain an odd-numbered board, governance risk appears contained. Nevertheless, the loss of an experienced director with 14 years of institutional knowledge could create a temporary expertise gap, particularly on committees where Ms. Smith previously served.
