domestically or internationally, continue production at certain

the Middle East;
-- worldwide demand for food and different forms of renewable energy
impacting the price of farm commodities and consequently the demand for
the company's equipment;
-- investigations, claims, lawsuits, or other legal proceedings, including
the lawsuit filed by the Federal Trade Commission $(FTC.UK)$ and the Attorneys
General of the States of Arizona, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, and
Wisconsin alleging that the company unlawfully withheld self-repair
capabilities from farmers and independent repair providers;
-- delays or disruptions in the company's supply chain;
-- changes in climate patterns, unfavorable weather events, and natural
disasters;
-- availability and price of raw materials, components, and whole goods;
-- suppliers' and manufacturers' business practices and compliance with
applicable laws such as human rights, safety, environmental, and fair
wages;
-- loss of or challenges to intellectual property rights;
-- rationalization, restructuring, relocation, expansion and/or
reconfiguration of manufacturing and warehouse facilities;
-- the ability to execute business strategies, including the company's Smart
Industrial Operating Model and Leap Ambitions;

of the company's products and to provide support and service for
precision technology solutions;

ventures, including challenges with successfully integrating operations
and internal control processes;

and morale, and institutional knowledge;

new, more stringent laws, as well as compliance with a variety of U.S.,
foreign and international laws, regulations, and policies relating to,
but not limited to the following: advertising, anti-bribery and
anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, antitrust, consumer finance,
cybersecurity, data privacy, encryption, environmental (including climate
change and engine emissions), farming, health and safety, foreign
exchange controls and cash repatriation restrictions, foreign ownership
and investment, human rights, import / export and trade, tariffs, labor
and employment, product liability, telematics, and telecommunications;
-- governmental and other actions designed to address climate change in
connection with a transition to a lower-carbon economy; and

Condensed Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of dollars) Unaudited
(1) Special Items
Discrete Tax Items
In the first quarter of 2025, the company recorded favorable net discrete tax items primarily due to tax benefits of $110 million related to the realization of foreign net operating losses from the consolidation of certain subsidiaries and $53 million from an adjustment to an uncertain tax position of a foreign subsidiary.
Banco John Deere S.A.
In 2024, the company entered into an agreement with a Brazilian bank, Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco), for Bradesco to invest and become 50% owner of the company's wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil, Banco John Deere S.A. $(BJD.SI)$. BJD finances retail and wholesale loans for agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment. The transaction is intended to reduce the company's incremental risk as it continues to grow in the Brazilian market. The company deconsolidated BJD upon completion of the transaction in February 2025. The company accounts for its investment in BJD using the equity method of accounting and results of its operations are reported in "Equity in income of unconsolidated affiliates" within the financial services segment. The company reports investments in unconsolidated affiliates and receivables from unconsolidated affiliates in "Other assets" and "Other receivables," respectively.
BJD was reclassified as held for sale in the third quarter of 2024. In the first quarter of 2025, a pretax and after-tax gain (reversal of previous losses) of $32 million 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. No significant gain or loss was recognized upon completion of the transaction. The equity interest in BJD was valued at $362 million at the deconsolidation date.
(2) The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of all the company's subsidiaries. The supplemental consolidating data in Note 3 to the financial statements is presented for informational purposes. Equipment operations represent the enterprise without financial services. Equipment operations include the company's production and precision agriculture operations, small agriculture and turf operations, and construction and forestry operations, and other corporate assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses not reflected within financial services. Transactions between the equipment operations and financial services have been eliminated to arrive at the consolidated financial statements.
