They also compared Deere to Caterpillar, noting that Caterpillar’s higher price target suggests slightly greater upside potential. The article underscored Deere’s robust performance and a positive outlook for the remainder of 2026.

Earnings Summary
Deere & Company, a long‑standing manufacturer of agricultural, turf, construction, and forestry equipment, operates across four key segments that collectively serve large‑scale farming, small‑holder operations, landscaping, and heavy construction markets, positioning it as a comprehensive equipment solutions provider within the industrials sector. In the most recent two quarters, Q2 2026 and Q3 2026, Deere posted EPS of $6.55 and $5.10, respectively, both surpassing analyst expectations of $5.70 and $4.37, while revenue remained slightly below estimates at $11.78 billion and $10.999 billion versus projected $11.88 billion and $11.05 billion; this contrasts with Q1 2025, where EPS of $6.64 beat the $5.64 estimate and revenue of $11.171 billion exceeded expectations, indicating a recent deceleration in revenue growth but continued EPS resilience. Historically, Deere has delivered double‑digit revenue growth year‑over‑year, with a consistent pattern of beating EPS estimates in the majority of quarters, even when revenue growth moderated, as seen in Q4 2024 where EPS of $3.19 fell slightly short of the $3.25 estimate yet revenue of $6.809 billion met expectations. The company’s earnings trajectory shows a steady upward trend in profitability, with EPS rising from $3.19 in Q4 2024 to $6.55 in Q2 2026, while revenue growth has slowed from a 63% increase in Q1 2025 to a modest 4% rise in Q2 2026, reflecting a maturing cycle. Recent news highlights a regulatory inquiry by the FTC and USDA, adding mild headwinds, and a positive commentary from Jim Cramer noting improved order trends and advanced technology adoption, which may temper investor concerns about pricing power and cycle timing.

Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into DE?

RICH

At today's price, Deere & Company needs to grow free cash flow about 17.6% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 8.86% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at 10.9% a year, so the market is asking for 6.7 percentage points above its own delivered rate. On that basis DE looks priced above what its own growth record supports.

Up days (1y)
52%

Deere & Company is currently running 34.6% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against DE's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 84th percentile — elevated for this stock, against a typical reading of 24.3%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

DE is trading -8.2% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -19.7%, and the deepest was -38.1% in 2020. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits +9.9% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 67th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year DE closed higher on 52% of sessions, and it is currently 3 sessions into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 14 years of records, DE finished the month higher 9 of 14 times, with a median return of +2.9% and an average of +1.9%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +5.6% on average, its weakest May at -0.7%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: DE has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 84 of 3,266 sessions (2.6% of the time), with the largest gaps running +9.4% and -5.8%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 3,267 daily closes between 2013-10-15 and 2026-10-14, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against DE's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.

What did this article say?
Deere (DE) posted a 36% year‑to‑date gain, outperforming the S&P 500’s 14% rise. Analysts now set an average price target of $694, roughly 10% above the current share price, reflecting confidence in continued expansion. The company’s broader product mix, including mining and construction equipment, supports its growth trajectory. Investors are weighing Deere against Caterpillar, with CAT’s higher price target suggesting slightly greater upside potential. The article highlights Deere’s robust performance and positive outlook for the remainder of 2026.
What did this article say?
During a Mad Money episode on October 2, Jim Cramer praised Deere & Company after a caller noted corn prices had risen about 20%. Cramer described Deere as “sensational” and highlighted the company’s strong performance history. He cited early order trends, improving used‑equipment inventories, and growing adoption of advanced technologies as evidence that the agricultural equipment cycle is nearing its bottom. The commentary reinforced positive sentiment around Deere’s prospects for 2026, though it did not signal a material shift in guidance or valuation.
What did this article say?
Deere & Company experienced a modest 1.5% decline over the past six months, trailing behind CNH Industrial’s slight gains. The company remains the market leader in agricultural equipment, yet its order trends suggest the 2026 bottom of the current cycle may be near. A new FTC and USDA inquiry into potential anticompetitive practices added uncertainty, causing a broader sell‑off across Deere, CNH, and AGCO shares. The inquiry does not accuse Deere of wrongdoing, but it highlights regulatory scrutiny that could impact future pricing and market dynamics. Overall, the article presents a mild headwind for Deere without a clear material impact yet.
What did this article say?
Deere (DE) closed the trading day at $622.78, down 4.57% from the previous close, lagging the broader market gains. The decline followed a 3.74% drop in the Industrial Products sector and a 2.62% loss in that sector. Investors are awaiting the company’s earnings release on November 25, 2026, with analysts projecting a modest EPS increase of 3.82% and a slight revenue decline of 2.59% for the quarter. The full‑year consensus estimates anticipate earnings of $18.12 per share and revenue of $41.35 billion, reflecting a 2.05% earnings drop and a 6.25% revenue rise compared to the prior year.
What did this article say?
Deere (NYSE:DE) achieved an average annual return of 22.09% over the past decade, outperforming the market by 8.26% on an annualized basis. The company’s market capitalization reached $175.95 billion as of the report. This performance demonstrates Deere’s strong long‑term growth trajectory and resilience in the agricultural equipment sector.
What did this article say?
JP Morgan analyst Tami Zakaria kept Deere’s rating at neutral but lifted the price target from $585 to $625. The upgrade reflects confidence in the company’s earnings outlook and market positioning. The move signals a modest bullish view without a change in the investment recommendation. It indicates that the bank sees potential upside in Deere’s business but does not view it as a transformative catalyst.
What did this article say?
JPMorgan increased its price target for Deere & Company from $585 to $625, reflecting a more optimistic view of the company’s prospects. The brokerage cited stronger earnings expectations and a favorable outlook for the agricultural equipment sector. The upgrade aligns with Deere’s recent operational improvements and growth in key markets. This move signals confidence in Deere’s ability to generate higher returns for shareholders.
What did this article say?
Evercore ISI upgraded Deere & Company to Outperform from its previous In Line rating on October 7. The brokerage set a new price target of $813, reflecting confidence in the company’s earnings outlook. The upgrade follows a broader positive sentiment among analysts, with a mean price target of $698.73 and an overweight consensus. The move signals a moderate, material upside for Deere, suggesting improved profitability and market positioning.
What did this article say?
Deere (NYSE:DE) fell 4% on October 7 as Treasury yields reached two-decade highs, exerting pressure on credit-dependent equipment makers. The decline mirrored a broader industrial sector sell-off, with the XLI ETF dropping 2% and the S&P 500 slipping 0.6%. Higher borrowing costs are expected to dampen demand for large machinery, potentially slowing Deere’s revenue growth. The move reflects a sector-wide rate‑driven headwind rather than a company‑specific event.
