Feb 17, 2026

Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (ADM) reported a challenging year for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. While revenues saw a decrease of $5.3 billion to $80.3 billion, driven by lower sales volumes and prices across segments, the company's focus remains on strategic priorities including operational excellence, cost management, and targeted growth investments. The Ag Services and Oilseeds segment experienced compressed margins due to increased global supplies, policy uncertainties, and logistical issues, leading to a significant decline in segment operating profit. The Carbohydrate Solutions segment also saw a decrease in operating profit, influenced by lower ethanol and starch margins and higher manufacturing costs. However, the Nutrition segment demonstrated resilience, with a modest increase in segment operating profit, driven by growth in the Flavors market and expansion opportunities in dietary supplements, despite facing challenges from tariffs and inflation. ADM is actively pursuing cost savings, targeting over $500 million in cumulative savings over the next three to five years through cost optimization and portfolio simplification. The company made several strategic portfolio actions in 2025, including acquisitions and the formation of joint ventures to enhance its market position. Despite a decrease in earnings before income taxes by 44% year-over-year, largely due to significant impairment charges and equity method investment impacts, ADM maintains a strong liquidity position with $10.4 billion in total available liquidity. The company reiterated its commitment to disciplined capital deployment, including dividends, and is investing in future growth areas such as enhanced nutrition, biotics, and biosolutions.

Nov 18, 2024

Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (ADM) has filed an amendment to its 2023 10-K, primarily to restate its consolidated financial statements due to identified issues with intersegment sales accounting within its Nutrition reporting segment.
