1ST HALF: ADM'S REVENUES DOWN 6%, EARNINGS DOWN 58%: $514 MILLION
Source: ADM news release

CHICAGO -- ADM (NYSE: ADM) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Highlights:

*Second quarter net earnings of $219 million, adjusted net earnings 1 of $452 million

*Second quarter EPS 2 of $0.45, with adjusted EPS 1,2 of $0.93, both down versus the prior year quarter

*Year-to-date cash flows provided by operating activities were $4.0 billion, with cash flows from operations before working capital 1,3 of $1.2 billion

*Remediated the previously identified material weakness in internal controls with respect to segment disclosures related to reporting, pricing and measurement

Outlook:

*Tightens previously provided adjusted EPS 1,2 guidance for full-year 2025 to approximately $4.00/share

*Outlook based on first half performance and the expectation that recently improved margins will mostly benefit the fourth quarter of 2025 and beyond

"In the second quarter, ADM continued to make progress on operational improvements, driving cost savings through targeted realignments and advancing our pipeline of portfolio simplification opportunities, all while continuing our disciplined approach to capital allocation," said Chair of the Board and CEO Juan Luciano.

"In AS&O, we maintained focus on actions to improve our operational resilience, announcing additional targeted network consolidations, as we worked to bridge a challenging environment that is expected to ease beginning in the fourth quarter given the clarity around Renewable Volume Obligations. In Carb Solutions, we achieved steady operational results, managing pockets of demand softness. In Nutrition, we delivered sequential improvement in operating profit and our restored Decatur East Plant operations are expected to support improved performance in the second half of the year.

Looking ahead, disciplined execution by our team will be central to navigating the ongoing uncertainty in the global markets. With biofuel policy clarity emerging toward the end of the second quarter, we have less of our order book open in the third quarter to benefit from improved margins. However, we are well-positioned to exit 2025 with strong momentum and we remain confident in our ability to execute on opportunities that may emerge with greater policy clarity."
