Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]

ACQUISITIONS

On September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a Sale and Contribution Agreement among AGCO, Trimble Inc. (“Trimble”) and PTx Trimble, LLC (“PTx Trimble” or the "Joint Venture"), formerly known as Trimble Solutions, LLC, which was subsequently amended and restated on March 31, 2024. On April 1, 2024, pursuant to the terms of an Amended and Restated Sale and Contribution Agreement (the “Agreement”), AGCO and Trimble completed (i) the contribution by Trimble to the Joint Venture of Trimble’s OneAg business (“OneAg”), which is Trimble’s agricultural business, excluding certain Global Navigation Satellite System and guidance technologies, and $8.1 million of cash, (ii) the contribution by AGCO to the Joint Venture of its interest in JCA Industries, LLC d/b/a JCA Technologies and $46.0 million of cash, and (iii) the purchase by AGCO from Trimble of membership interests in the Joint Venture in exchange for the payment by AGCO to Trimble of $1,954.0 million in cash, subject to customary working capital and other adjustments. Immediately following the closing and as a result of the transaction, AGCO directly and indirectly owns an 85% interest in the Joint Venture and Trimble owns a 15% interest in the Joint Venture. The purchase price was funded using net proceeds from the issuance of Senior Notes due 2027 and 2034, a term loan facility and the remainder through other borrowings and cash on hand. Refer to Note 9 for further information. AGCO began consolidating PTx Trimble within its consolidated financial statements on April 1, 2024.

The Company is accounting for the Joint Venture transaction as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting which requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their acquisition date fair value. The Company preliminarily allocated the purchase price of the acquisition to identified assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and noncontrolling interests based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values was recorded as goodwill. The Company calculated the fair value of the assets acquired using the income, market or cost approach (or a combination thereof). Fair values of certain assets were determined based on Level 3 inputs, including estimated future cash flows, discount rates, royalty rates, growth rates and sales projections, all of which require significant management judgment and are susceptible to change. The purchase price allocation was based upon preliminary information and is subject to change if additional information about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date becomes available. The Company continues to evaluate the valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to the acquisition, including inventories, developed technologies, trade names, favorable contracts, customer relationships, deferred taxes and redeemable noncontrolling interests. The final fair value of the net assets acquired may result in adjustments to these assets and liabilities, including goodwill. Any subsequent measurement period adjustments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. The goodwill consists of expected future economic benefits that will arise from expected future product sales, operating efficiencies and sales channel synergies that may result from the Joint Venture. The Company expects that the portion of the goodwill balance allocated to the US business will be deductible for tax purposes, and the goodwill allocated to the Joint Venture’s investments in foreign subsidiaries, primarily in Germany and France, will not be deductible for tax purposes. At this time, the assignment of goodwill to reporting units has not yet been completed.

The estimated purchase consideration transferred consisted of the following (in millions):


	Purchase Consideration
Total cash consideration for OneAg	$	1,954.0
Estimated working capital and other adjustments	(45.6)
Equity transaction associated with JCA noncontrolling interest (a)	3.1
Total purchase consideration	$	1,911.5

(a) Equity transaction associated with JCA noncontrolling interest

The transfer of the 15% interest in AGCO's JCA business is accounted for as an equity transaction. The adjustment to additional paid-in-capital represents the excess of the fair value of the JCA business transferred over its historical carrying amount. The fair value of the JCA business was determined using a discounted cash flow model.

The preliminary fair values of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests as of the acquisition date are presented in the following table (in millions):


	As of April 1, 2024
Cash	$	6.3
Accounts receivable	12.3
Inventories	58.9
Other current assets	3.5
Property, plant and equipment	21.6
Deferred tax assets	0.1
Right-of-use lease assets	2.4
Other assets (non-current)	0.1
Intangible assets	545.0
Goodwill	1,803.3
Total assets acquired	$	2,453.5

Accounts payable	$	(2.1)
Accrued expenses	(11.3)
Other current liabilities	(14.0)
Operating lease liabilities	(1.6)
Deferred tax liabilities	(4.0)
Other noncurrent liabilities	(9.6)
Total liabilities assumed	$	(42.6)

Redeemable noncontrolling interests (b)	(499.4)

Net assets acquired	$	1,911.5

(b) Redeemable noncontrolling interests

Trimble has a put option to sell its noncontrolling interests to the Company, and the Company has a call option to redeem Trimble's noncontrolling interests. The first exercisable date of both the put and call options is April 1, 2027. The put and call options prices are based on multiples of EBITDA, subject to the terms of the Agreement. We estimated the preliminary fair value of the put and call options using a Monte Carlo simulation along with a Black Scholes model assuming an exercise date of three years from the close of the transaction, the first allowable exercise date. We evaluated the put and call options for the redeemable noncontrolling interests under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and classified the redeemable noncontrolling interests as mezzanine equity based on its redemption features. The amount of the net income or loss attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests is recorded in “Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests” within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. To the extent the redemption value exceeds the initial fair value recorded, the Company will recognize the entire change in the redemption amount each reporting period in retained earnings.

The acquired identifiable intangible assets of OneAg as of the date of the acquisition are summarized in the following table (in millions):


	Fair Value		Useful Life(1)

Developed Technology	$	453.0	7 -10 years
Customer Relationships	39.4		20 years
Tradename	10.7		5 years
Favorable contracts	41.9		2 - 7 years
	$	545.0

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the consolidated results of operations as if the OneAg acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023.

The pro forma results contained in the table below include adjustments for (i) the elimination of sales between the Company and OneAg, (ii) amortization of acquired intangible assets (iii) interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs related to borrowings under the Senior Notes due 2027 and 2034 and term loan facility and (iv) transaction-related costs as if these had been incurred on January 1, 2023 for the periods ending June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.
