◆ What the Market Isn't Pricing In

Deere & Company (DE) — the variant view

Deere's fiscal 2026 profit floor is being held up by small tractors and construction, not by the large farm machines the market is waiting on.

📈 DE valuation, revenue & earnings — P/E, P/S, revenue, EPS →

Ask what Deere is and most investors will say a maker of large farm machines, and the share price trades on when the large-farm cycle turns. What the fiscal 2026 numbers show is that the floor under earnings this year is being held up by the other two equipment segments, which have narrower moats.

Deere segment operating profit change, first nine months of fiscal 2026 (%)-33.6Production & Precision Ag+30.1Small Ag & Turf+66.5Construction & ForestryDeere Form 10-Q Q3 FY2026, segment results
The small machines are carrying the year.

In the third quarter small agriculture and turf earned operating profit of $622 million and production and precision agriculture $527 million1. The segment that sells compact tractors, mowers and utility vehicles out-earned the one that sells combines. Construction and forestry earned $436 million, up from $237 million2. Across the first nine months, large-machine profit fell 33.6% while small agriculture's rose 30.1% and construction's 66.5%3.

The guidance says the same. For fiscal 2026 Deere expects production and precision agriculture sales down about 10%, small agriculture and turf up about 15% and construction and forestry up about 20%4, with margin guides of 11% to 12%, 14.5% to 15.5% and 10.5% to 11.5%5.

By Deere's own figures these are the segments where it is less dominant. At the fiscal 2025 trough small agriculture and turf earned 11.8% on sales and construction and forestry 9.0%, against 15.4% in large machines6. Small agriculture and turf names Kubota and Toro among its rivals and sells through The Home Depot and Lowe's as well as dealers7, and it benefited this quarter from tariff refunds8. Construction is the smaller player against Caterpillar and Komatsu, discussed on Caterpillar and Komatsu: The Construction Incumbents.

The guidance contains the same shift. The small agriculture and turf segment's net sales guide includes about 1.5 points of price and the construction and forestry guide about 3 points9, against about 1 point in large agriculture10. Pricing power, too, is running strongest outside the core.

The implication runs in two directions. Deere's earnings are more diversified than its reputation, which is good. But the recovery the market is paying 38 times earnings for must come from the large-machine business, and in the meantime profits rest on segments where Deere's advantages are smaller. If small agriculture and turf's operating margin falls below 14% while large-machine sales are still declining, the floor will have been more fragile than the third quarter made it look.
