“I talk to other farmers about the service they get.” “…the machines are becoming more complex and more things that, as a farmer, I’m unable to fix, because everything is electronic and computer controlled.” “Constantly keeping in touch is the biggest thing. Make sure you stay in touch to our needs and don’t just give lip service. Be proactive.” “Every one of these machines today, even the tractors, have precision ag equipment on it, but particularly the combines and the sprayers, you can’t run anything without them.” “Sooner or later, you're going to break down or have downtime, and it's all up to the dealer to get things going as quick as they can.” 18

Appendix


 
Presentation Footnotes _______________________________________ (1) Absorption is calculated in a given period by dividing our gross profit from sales of parts, service and rental fleet activity (described as "Gross Profit on Recurring Revenue" when used in reference to absorption discussions) for the period by the difference between (i) our operating expenses (including interest on floorplan payable and rental fleet debt balances) and (ii) our variable expense of sales commissions on equipment sales and incentive compensation in the same period (such difference described as "Fixed Operating Expenses" when used in reference to Absorption discussions). (2) Adjusted Diluted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure which has a directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The following slide provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
