Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Deere & Company
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Deere & Company:

  • Deere & Company recently reported strong third-quarter results on August 20, 2026, with earnings per share of $5.10, which exceeded the consensus estimate of $4.69 by $0.41, demonstrating the company's ability to outperform market expectations during a challenging agricultural cycle.
  • The stock currently trades at $665.89, which is below the average analyst price target of $686.10, suggesting potential upside for investors as the consensus rating remains a "Moderate Buy" from twenty-five research firms covering the stock.
  • Deere & Company maintains a consistent dividend policy, having recently declared a quarterly dividend of $1.62 per share to be paid on November 9, 2026, which represents an annualized yield of approximately 1.0% and a payout ratio of 36.00%, providing income stability for shareholders.
  • Institutional investors have shown significant confidence in the company, with major firms like BlackRock Inc. buying a new stake worth approximately $11.76 billion in the second quarter and Wellington Management Group LLP increasing its stake by 84.3% during the same period.
  • The company's revenue grew by 6.2% year-over-year in the most recent quarter to $12.61 billion, surpassing analyst expectations of $10.81 billion, indicating resilient demand for its agricultural and construction equipment despite broader economic pressures.

Deere & Company
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Deere & Company for these reasons:

  • Management has indicated that demand for large agriculture equipment in the U.S. and Canada remains pressured by challenging farm fundamentals, with the company viewing 2026 as the bottom of the cycle, which may limit near-term growth prospects.
  • Insider selling activity has been notable, with CEO John C. May II selling 41,472 shares at an average price of $501.49 in January 2026 and another 11,106 shares in November 2025, signaling potential caution from company leadership.
  • The stock's price-to-earnings ratio stands at 36.99, which is relatively high compared to historical averages, suggesting that the market is pricing in significant future growth that may not materialize if agricultural conditions remain difficult.
  • Deere & Company recorded $110 million in tariff recoveries in the third quarter and $382 million for the first nine months of 2026, which boosted recent results but may leave less room for upside surprises in future quarters as these one-time benefits diminish.
  • Short interest has increased slightly, with shares shorted rising to 5,615,614 as of September 15, 2026, representing a 6.93% month-to-month increase, indicating that some investors are betting against the stock's performance.
