Deere & Company is a major American multinational known for manufacturing agricultural, construction, and forestry equipment since 1837. Despite a recent 12% stock drop from its all-time high, DE has outperformed the Nasdaq Composite over the past year. However, Q4 2025 results saw a 9% decline in sales and revenues, leading to a 5.7% drop in shares.

The downturn in Deere’s performance was due to challenges in its core equipment businesses, with net income declining sharply. Caterpillar Inc., a peer of Deere, has outperformed with a 58.2% gain on a YTD basis. Analysts rate DE stock a “Moderate Buy” with a mean price target of $525.77 for an 11.9% upside potential from current levels.
