The segments changed
10-K filed 2025-12-18Compared with the 10-K of Dec 12, 2024: new segments Financial Services, Production & Precision Agriculture (PPA), Small Agriculture & Turf (SAT); no longer reported: Production & Precision Ag (PPA), Small Ag & Turf (SAT).
When a company changes its segments, the years before are usually recast, so growth by segment is not comparable with what earlier 10-Ks showed. Found by comparing the segments with revenue in the last two 10-Ks (XBRL) and by the 10-K's own words, without AI.
