Deere Q4 Revenue Up 13%, Beats Estimates; Analyst Flags Stock as Avoid for 2026
Summary
Deere & Co reported Q4 revenue of $9.61 billion, marking a 13% year-over-year increase and surpassing analyst estimates by 5.9%. The company also exceeded expectations for EBITDA and adjusted operating income. Despite these strong financial results, the stock experienced an intraday decline of approximately 1.1%. This negative market reaction appears to be influenced by Trivariate Research's Adam Parker, who has flagged Deere as a stock to avoid in 2026, citing concerns over high valuation, recent earnings downgrades, and broader weakness in the industrial sector. Traders will need to assess whether the positive earnings momentum can counteract the analyst's bearish outlook and the prevailing sector headwinds.
