NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of AGCO Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “AGCO”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 . Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-09, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans (Subtopic 715-80): Disclosures about an Employer's Participation in a Multiemployer Plan” (“ASU 2011-09”). ASU 2011-09 requires additional disclosures about employers' participation in multiemployer pension plans including information about the plan's funded status if it is readily available. The ASU is effective for annual periods for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2011-09 on its disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test. This standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt this standard for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2011-08 on its annual goodwill impairment test.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of stockholders' equity. Accordingly, this standard increases the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial statements by requiring comprehensive income to be presented in either a single continuous statement or in two consecutive statements reporting net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The standard initially required that reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income be measured and presented by income statement line item on the face of the income statement. On October 21, 2011, the FASB proposed a deferral of this new requirement to present reclassifications of other comprehensive income on the face of the income statement. If finalized as proposed, the deferral would become effective at the same time that ASU 2011-05 is adopted. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2011-05 by presenting two separate but consecutive statements reporting net income and other comprehensive income for its first quarter ended March 31, 2012. The Company will continue to evaluate the status of the proposed deferral and its impact on the presentation of reclassification adjustments.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 clarifies existing fair value measurement concepts and continues the convergence towards a uniform framework for applying fair value measurement principles. This standard requires additional disclosures for fair value measurements, primarily Level 3 measurements. ASU 2011-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-04 to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2011-04 on its disclosures.

2. ACQUISITIONS

On January 3, 2011, the Company acquired 50% of AGCO-Amity JV, LLC (“AGCO-Amity JV”) for approximately $25.0 million , net of approximately $5.0 million cash acquired, thereby creating a joint venture between the Company and Amity Technology LLC. The joint venture had approximately $6.2 million of indebtedness as of the date of acquisition. AGCO-Amity JV is located in North Dakota and manufactures air-seeding and tillage equipment. The investment was funded with available cash on hand. As the Company has a controlling voting interest to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture, the Company has consolidated the joint venture’s operations in the Company’s results of operations and financial position commencing as of and from the date of the formation of the joint venture. The Company allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a preliminary estimate of their fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquired net assets consist primarily of accounts receivable, property, plant and equipment, inventories, trademarks and other intangible assets. The Company recorded approximately $20.1 million of goodwill and approximately $22.9 million of tradename, trademark, technology and distribution network intangible assets, representing 100% of the value of these assets within the joint venture’s financial position. The goodwill is reported within the Company’s North American geographical reportable segment.

The acquired other identifiable intangible assets of AGCO-Amity JV are summarized in the following table (in millions):

On March 3, 2011, the Company acquired the remaining 50% of Laverda SpA (“Laverda”) for approximately €63.8 million , net of approximately €1.2 million cash acquired (or approximately $88.3 million , net). Laverda, previously an operating joint venture between AGCO and the Italian ARGO group, is located in Breganze, Italy and manufactures harvesting equipment. In addition to producing Laverda-branded combines, the Breganze factory manufactures mid-range combine harvesters for the Company’s Massey Ferguson, Fendt and Challenger brands for distribution in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The Company’s 100% ownership of Laverda includes ownership in Fella-Werke GMBH, a German manufacturer of grass and hay machinery. The Company allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a preliminary estimate of their fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquired net assets consist primarily of accounts receivable, property, plant and equipment, inventories, tradename and other intangible assets. The Company recorded approximately $40.9 million of goodwill and approximately $33.4 million of trademark and distribution network intangible assets associated with the acquisition. The goodwill recorded is reported within the Company’s Europe/Middle East/Africa geographical reportable segment. In addition, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $0.7 million on the remeasurement of the previously held equity interest during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a result of the acquisition.

The acquired other identifiable intangible assets of Laverda are summarized in the following table (in millions):



Intangible Asset	Amount		Weighted-Average Useful Life
Tradenames	$	6.6	30	years
Distribution network	26.8		16	years

On December 15, 2010, the Company acquired Sparex Holdings Ltd (“Sparex”), a U.K. company, for approximately £51.6 million , net of approximately £2.7 million cash acquired (or approximately $81.5 million , net). Sparex, headquartered in Exeter, United Kingdom, is a global distributor of accessories and tractor replacement parts serving the agricultural aftermarket, with operations in 17 countries. The acquisition was financed with available cash on hand. The Company recorded approximately $25.9 million of goodwill and approximately $28.6 million of preliminary estimated tradename and customer relationship intangible assets associated with the acquisition of Sparex.

On April 21, 2011 , the Company’s shareholders approved the amendment and restatement of the 2006 Plan, including an increase in the number of shares available for issuance under the 2006 Plan by 5.0 million shares, for a total of 10.0 million shares available for grant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the Company granted 804,699 awards for a three- to five-year performance period commencing in 2011 and ending in 2015 , assuming the maximum target level of performance is achieved for operating margin improvement. The compensation expense associated with all awards granted under the 2006 Plan is amortized ratably over the vesting or performance period based on the Company’s projected assessment of the level of

performance that will be achieved and earned. Performance award transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were as follows and are presented as if the Company were to achieve its maximum levels of performance under the plan:



Shares awarded but not earned at January 1	1,916,254
Shares awarded	1,446,525
Shares forfeited or unearned	(67,000	)
Shares earned	—
Shares awarded but not earned at September 30	3,295,779

As of September 30, 2011 , the total compensation cost related to unearned performance awards not yet recognized, assuming the Company’s current projected assessment of the level of performance that will be achieved and earned, was approximately $48.0 million , and the weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately four years.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the Company recorded stock compensation expense of approximately $0.6 million and $1.9 million , respectively, associated with stock settled stock appreciation rights (“SSAR”) awards. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 , the Company recorded stock compensation expense of approximately $0.6 million and $1.9 million , respectively, associated with SSAR awards. The Company estimated the fair value of the grants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company utilized the “simplified” method for estimating the expected term of granted SSARs during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 as afforded by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, “Share-Based Payment (SAB Topic 14),” and SAB No. 110, “Share-Based Payment (SAB Topic 14.D.2).” The expected term used to value a grant under the simplified method is the mid-point between the vesting date and the contractual term of the SSAR. As the Company has only been granting SSARs since April 2006, it does not believe it has sufficient relevant experience regarding employee exercise behavior. The weighted average grant-date fair value of SSARs granted and the weighted average assumptions under the Black-Scholes option model were as follows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 :



	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2011			2010
Weighted average grant date fair value	$	22.54		$	14.47
Weighted average assumptions under Black-Scholes option model:
Expected life of awards (years)	5.5			5.5

Director Restricted Stock Grants

The 2006 Plan provides for annual restricted stock grants of the Company’s common stock to all non-employee directors. The shares are restricted as to transferability for a period of three years, but are not subject to forfeiture. In the event a director departs from the Company’s Board of Directors, the non-transferability period would expire immediately. The plan allows for the director to have the option of forfeiting a portion of the shares awarded in lieu of a cash payment contributed to the participant’s tax withholding to satisfy the statutory minimum federal, state and employment taxes which would be payable at the time of grant. The 2011 grant was made on April 21, 2011 and equated to 16,560 shares of common stock, of which 12,034 shares of common stock were issued, after shares were withheld for withholding taxes. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 associated with these grants.

Interest was payable on the notes at 1 ³ / 4 % per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The notes were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an effective price of $22.36 per share, subject to adjustment. This reflected an initial conversion rate for the notes of 44.7193 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 , holders of the Company’s 1 ³ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes converted approximately $161.0 million of principal amount of the notes. The Company issued 3,926,574 shares associated with the $195.9 million excess conversion value of the notes.

1¾% Convertible senior subordinated notes due 2033:
Carrying amount of the equity component	$	—		$	16.1

Principal amount of the liability component	$	—		$	161.0

Less: unamortized discount	(19.9		)	(26.1		)
Net carrying amount	$	181.4		$	175.2

The following table sets forth the interest expense recognized relating to both the contractual interest coupon and the amortization of the remaining discount on the liability component, if applicable, for the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes (in millions):



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
1¾% Convertible senior subordinated notes:
Interest expense	$	—	$	2.6	$	0.9	$	8.5
1¼% Convertible senior subordinated notes:
Interest expense	$	2.7	$	2.6	$	8.0	$	7.7

The effective interest rate on the liability component for both notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was 6.1% . The discount for the 1 ³ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes was amortized through December 2010 and the unamortized discount for the 1 ¹ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes will be amortized through December 2013 , as this is the earliest date the notes holders can require the Company to repurchase the notes.

Holders of the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes could have converted or may convert the notes, if, during any fiscal quarter, the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 120% of the conversion price of $22.36 per share for the 1 ³ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes and $40.73 per share for the 1 ¹ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter. As of December 31, 2010 , the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock had exceeded 120% of the conversion price of the 1 ³ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending December 31, 2010 , and, therefore, the Company classified the notes as a current liability. Future classification of the 1 ¹ / 4 % convertible senior subordinated notes between current and long-term debt is dependent on the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock during future quarters.

The Company’s €200.0 million of 6 ⁷ / 8 % senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2014 , issued in April 2004, were redeemed at a price of 101.146% of their principal amount on May 2, 2011, in accordance with the redemption provisions of the indenture agreement. The Company funded the redemption of the notes with a new €200.0 million senior unsecured term loan with Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A., “Rabobank.” The new term loan is due May 2, 2016 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 4 ¹ / 2 %. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the Company recorded a loss of approximately $3.1 million associated with the premium paid to the holders of the notes and a write-off of approximately $1.2 million of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with the redemption within “interest expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

8. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and its subsidiaries by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share assumes exercise of outstanding stock options, vesting of performance share awards, vesting of restricted stock and the appreciation of the excess conversion value of the contingently convertible senior subordinated notes using the treasury stock method when the effects of such assumptions are dilutive. Dilution of weighted shares outstanding will depend on the Company’s stock price for the excess conversion value of the convertible senior subordinated notes using the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and its subsidiaries and weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows (in millions, except per share data):



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
Basic net income per share:
Net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	84.4	$	62.3	$	298.1	$	135.3
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	96.4		92.9		95.1		92.7
Basic net income per share attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	0.88	$	0.67	$	3.13	$	1.46
Diluted net income per share:
Net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries for purposes of computing diluted net income per share	$	84.4	$	62.3	$	298.1	$	135.3
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	96.4		92.9		95.1		92.7
Dilutive stock options, SSARs, performance share awards and restricted stock awards	0.2		0.3		0.3		0.5
Weighted average assumed conversion of contingently convertible senior subordinated notes	0.3		2.6		2.5		2.8
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share	96.9		95.8		97.9		96.0
Diluted net income per share attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries	$	0.87	$	0.65	$	3.04	$	1.41

There were SSARs to purchase approximately 0.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and approximately 0.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the SSARs had an antidilutive impact.

9. INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , the Company had approximately $59.6 million and $48.2 million , respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , the Company had approximately $21.6 million and $14.2 million , respectively, of current accrued taxes related to uncertain income tax positions connected with ongoing tax audits in various jurisdictions. The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of $6.1 million and $5.2 million , respectively.

Generally, the tax years 2004 through 2010 remain open to examination by taxing authorities in the United States and certain other foreign taxing jurisdictions.

10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

All derivatives are recognized on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. On the date the derivative contract is entered into, the Company designates the derivative as either (1) a fair value hedge of a recognized liability, (2) a cash flow hedge of a forecasted transaction, (3) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, or (4) a non-designated derivative instrument.

The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flow of hedged items. When it is determined that a derivative is no longer highly effective as a hedge, hedge accounting is discontinued on a prospective basis.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company has significant manufacturing operations in the United States, France, Germany, Finland and Brazil, and it purchases a portion of its tractors, combines and components from third-party foreign suppliers, primarily in various European countries and in Japan. The Company also sells products in over 140 countries throughout the world. The Company’s most significant transactional foreign currency exposures are the Euro, Brazilian real and the Canadian dollar in relation to the United States dollar, and the Euro in relation to the British pound.

The Company attempts to manage its transactional foreign exchange exposure by hedging foreign currency cash flow forecasts and commitments arising from the anticipated settlement of receivables and payables and from future purchases and sales. Where naturally offsetting currency positions do not occur, the Company hedges certain, but not all, of its exposures through the use of foreign currency contracts. The Company’s translation exposure resulting from translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into United States dollars is not hedged. When practical, the translation impact is reduced by financing local operations with local borrowings.

The foreign currency contracts are primarily forward and options contracts. These contracts’ fair value measurements fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 fair value measurements are generally based upon quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is based on a valuation model that discounts cash flows resulting from the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate. The fair value of foreign currency option contracts is based on a valuation model that utilizes spot and forward exchange rates, interest rates and currency pair volatility.

The Company’s senior management establishes the Company’s foreign currency and interest rate risk management policies. These policies are reviewed periodically by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. The policy allows for the use of derivative instruments to hedge exposures to movements in foreign currency and interest rates. The Company’s policy prohibits the use of derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

Cash Flow Hedges

During 2011 and 2010 , the Company designated certain foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges of expected future sales and purchases. The effective portion of the fair value gains or losses on these cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into cost of goods sold during the period the sales and purchases are recognized. The amount of the gain (loss) recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) that was reclassified to cost of goods sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $4.9 million and $(4.3) million , respectively, on an after-tax basis. The outstanding contracts as of September 30, 2011 range in maturity through December 2012 .

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , the Company had outstanding foreign currency contracts with a notional amount of approximately $174.4 million and $111.1 million , respectively, that were entered into to hedge forecasted sale and purchase transactions.

Derivative Transactions Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

During 2011 and 2010 , the Company entered into foreign currency contracts to hedge receivables and payables on the Company and its subsidiaries’ balance sheets that are denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency. These contracts were classified as non-designated derivative instruments.

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , the Company had outstanding foreign currency contracts with a notional amount of approximately $876.8 million and $1,002.3 million , respectively, that were entered into to hedge receivables and payables that are denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are reported in “Other expense, net.” For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the Company recorded a net loss of approximately $15.7 million and $13.8 million , respectively, under the caption “Other expense, net” related to these contracts. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 , the Company recorded a net loss of approximately $20.3 million and a net gain of approximately $23.8 million , respectively, under the caption “Other expense, net” related to these contracts. Gains and losses on such contracts are substantially offset by losses and gains on the remeasurement of the underlying asset or liability being hedged.

The table below sets forth the fair value of derivative instruments as of September 30, 2011 (in millions):

Counterparty Risk

The Company regularly monitors the counterparty risk and credit ratings of all the counterparties to the derivative instruments. The Company believes that its exposures are appropriately diversified across counterparties and that these counterparties are creditworthy financial institutions. If the Company perceives any risk with a counterparty, then the Company would cease to do business with that counterparty. There have been no negative impacts to the Company from any non-performance of any counterparties.

12. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SALES AGREEMENTS AND SECURITIZATION FACILITIES

At September 30, 2011 , the Company’s accounts receivable securitization facilities in Europe had outstanding funding of approximately €58.4 million (or approximately $78.6 million ). The Company recognized a liability of approximately $78.6 million equivalent to the funded balance of the European securitization facilities within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2011 . The European facility expired in October 2011. Wholesale accounts receivable were sold on a revolving basis to commercial paper conduits under the European facility through a wholly-owned qualified special purpose entity in the United Kingdom. The accrued interest owed to the commercial paper conduits associated with outstanding funding under the European facilities was approximately less than $0.1 million as of September 30, 2011 . Losses on sales of receivables under the European securitization facilities were reflected within “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

At September 30, 2011 , the Company had accounts receivable sales agreements that permit the sale, on an ongoing basis, of substantially all of its wholesale receivables in North America to AGCO Finance LLC and AGCO Finance Canada, Ltd., its 49% owned U.S. and Canadian retail finance joint ventures. The Company does not service the receivables after the sale occurs and does not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. The Company reviewed its accounting for the accounts receivable sales agreements in accordance with ASU 2009-16, “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets” (“ASU 2009-16”), and determined that these facilities should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

As of September 30, 2011 , net cash received from receivables sold under the U.S. and Canadian accounts receivable sales agreements was approximately $414.8 million . For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the Company paid AGCO Finance LLC and AGCO Finance Canada, Ltd. both a servicing fee related to the servicing of the sold receivables and a subsidized interest payment. These fees were reflected within losses on the sales of receivables included within “Other expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The subsidized interest payment was calculated based upon LIBOR plus a margin on any non-interest bearing accounts receivable outstanding and sold under the facilities.

At September 30, 2011 , the Company also had accounts receivable sales agreements that permit the sale, on an ongoing basis, of a majority of its wholesale receivables in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Austria to the relevant AGCO Finance entities in those countries. The Company does not service the receivables after the sale occurs and does not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. The Company reviewed its accounting for the accounts receivable sales agreements in accordance with ASU 2009-16 and determined that these facilities should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , cash received from receivables sold under these accounts receivable sales agreements in Europe was approximately $216.9 million and $169.2 million , respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , the Company paid the respective AGCO Finance entities in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Austria both a servicing fee related to the servicing of the sold receivables and a subsidized interest payment. These fees were reflected within losses on the sales of receivables included within “Other expense, net” and “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The subsidized interest payment was calculated based upon LIBOR plus a margin on any non-interest bearing accounts receivable outstanding and sold under the facilities.

Losses on sales of receivables associated with the accounts receivable financing facilities discussed above, reflected within “Other expense, net” and “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, were approximately $6.9 million and $15.6 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 , respectively, compared to $3.9 million and $11.5 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 , respectively.

The Company’s AGCO Finance retail finance joint ventures in Brazil and Australia also provide wholesale financing to the Company’s dealers. The receivables associated with these arrangements are without recourse to the Company. The Company does not service the receivables after the sale occurs and does not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , these retail finance joint ventures had approximately $55.9 million and $50.2 million , respectively, of outstanding accounts receivable associated with these arrangements. The Company reviewed its accounting for these arrangements and determined that these arrangements should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

In addition, the Company sells certain trade receivables under factoring arrangements to other financial institutions around the world. The Company evaluated the sale of such receivables pursuant to the guidelines of ASU 2009-16 and determined that these arrangements should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s four reportable segments distribute a full range of agricultural equipment and related replacement parts. The Company evaluates segment performance primarily based on income from operations. Sales for each segment are based on the location of the third-party customer. The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses and engineering expenses are charged to each segment based on the region and division where the expenses are incurred. As a result, the components of income from operations for one segment may not be comparable to another segment. Segment results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and assets as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows (in millions):

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Guarantees

The Company maintains a remarketing agreement with its U.S. retail finance joint venture, AGCO Finance LLC, whereby the Company is obligated to repurchase repossessed inventory at market values. The Company has an agreement with AGCO Finance LLC which limits the Company’s purchase obligations under this arrangement to $6.0 million in the aggregate per calendar year. The Company believes that any losses that might be incurred on the resale of this equipment will not materially impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations, due to the fair value of the underlying equipment.

At September 30, 2011 , the Company guaranteed indebtedness owed to third parties of approximately $132.4 million , primarily related to dealer and end-user financing of equipment. Such guarantees generally obligate the Company to repay outstanding finance obligations owed to financial institutions if dealers or end users default on such loans through 2015 . The Company believes the credit risk associated with these guarantees is not material to its financial position or results of operations. Losses under such guarantees have historically been insignificant. In addition, the Company generally would be able to recover any amounts paid under such guarantees from the sale of the underlying financed farm equipment, as the fair value of such equipment would be sufficient to offset a substantial portion of the amounts paid.

Other

The Company sells substantially all of its wholesale accounts receivable in North America to the Company’s U.S. and Canadian retail finance joint ventures and a large portion of its wholesale accounts receivable in Europe to AGCO Finance entities in certain European countries. The Company also sells certain accounts receivable under factoring arrangements to financial institutions around the world. The Company reviewed the sale of such receivables pursuant to the guidelines of ASU 2009-16 and determined that these facilities should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

Legal Claims and Other Matters

As a result of Brazilian tax legislation impacting value added taxes (“VAT”), the Company recorded a reserve of approximately $34.0 million and $22.3 million against its outstanding balance of Brazilian VAT taxes receivable as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 , respectively, due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to collect the

amounts outstanding.

On June 27, 2008, the Republic of Iraq filed a civil action in a federal court in New York, Case No. 08 CIV 59617, naming as defendants the Company’s French subsidiary and two of its other foreign subsidiaries that participated in the United Nations Oil for Food Program (the “Program”). Ninety-one other entities or companies also were named as defendants in the civil action due to their participation in the Program. The complaint purports to assert claims against each of the defendants seeking damages in an unspecified amount. Although the Company’s subsidiaries intend to vigorously defend against this action, it is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of this action or its impact, if any, on the Company, although if the outcome was adverse, the Company could be required to pay damages. In addition, the French government also is investigating the Company’s French subsidiary in connection with its participation in the Program.

In August 2008, as part of a routine audit, the Brazilian taxing authorities disallowed deductions relating to the amortization of certain goodwill recognized in connection with a reorganization of the Company’s Brazilian operations and the related transfer of certain assets to the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries. The amount of the tax disallowance through September 30, 2011 , not including interest and penalties, was approximately 90.6 million Brazilian reais (or approximately $48.8 million ). The amount ultimately in dispute will be greater because of interest and penalties. The Company has been advised by its legal and tax advisors that its position with respect to the deductions is allowable under the tax laws of Brazil. The Company is contesting the disallowance and believes that it is not likely that the assessment, interest or penalties will be required to be paid. However, the ultimate outcome will not be determined until the Brazilian tax appeal process is complete, which could take several years.

The Company is a party to various other legal claims and actions incidental to its business. The Company believes that none of these claims or actions, either individually or in the aggregate, is material to its business or financial statements as a whole, including its results of operations and financial condition.

16. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On September 30, 2011, the Company agreed to acquire GSI Holdings Corp. (“GSI”) for approximately $940.0 million . GSI, headquartered in Assumption, Illinois, is a manufacturer of grain storage and protein production systems and sells its products globally through independent dealers. The acquisition of GSI will enable the Company to provide its customers with a wider range of agricultural products and services. In 2010, GSI had net sales of approximately $713.1 million . The Company plans to fund the purchase price through borrowings from a newly committed bank credit facility and available cash on hand. The transaction is expected to close before the end of 2011, subject to regulatory approval.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

Our operations are subject to the cyclical nature of the agricultural industry. Sales of our equipment have been and are expected to continue to be affected by changes in net cash farm income, farm land values, weather conditions, demand for agricultural commodities, commodity prices and general economic conditions. We record sales when we sell equipment and replacement parts to our independent dealers, distributors or other customers. To the extent possible, we attempt to sell products to our dealers and distributors on a level basis throughout the year to reduce the effect of seasonal demands on manufacturing operations and to minimize our investment in inventory. Retail sales by dealers to farmers are highly seasonal and are a function of the timing of the planting and harvesting seasons. As a result, our net sales have historically been the lowest in the first quarter and have increased in subsequent quarters.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we generated net income of $84.4 million, or $0.87 per share, compared to net income of $62.3 million, or $0.65 per share, for the same period in 2010. For the first nine months of 2011, we generated net income of $298.1 million, or $3.04 per share, compared to net income of $135.3 million, or $1.41 per share, for the same period in 2010.

Net sales during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 were $2,099.1 million and $6,255.4 million, respectively, which were approximately 26.7% and 32.3% higher than the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, respectively, due to sales growth in most of our geographical segments, as well as the favorable impact of currency translation and acquisitions completed in December 2010 and the first quarter of 2011.

Income from operations for the third quarter of 2011 was $114.3 million compared to $75.9 million in the third quarter of 2010. Income from operations was $424.6 million for the first nine months of 2011 compared to $181.8 million for the same period in 2010. The increase in income from operations during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 was a result of an increase in net sales as well as improved gross margins resulting primarily from higher production volumes in Europe and North America, improved pricing and a favorable product mix, which were partially offset by higher material costs and increased engineering and marketing expenses.

Income from operations increased in our Europe/Africa/Middle East (“EAME”) region in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 primarily due to higher sales and production volumes, favorable pricing and a better product mix. In the South America region, income from operations decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 as a result of material and labor cost inflation, higher engineering and product introduction expenses as well as a less favorable geographic product sales mix. Income from operations in North America was higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 primarily due to increased sales, the benefit of higher production levels and cost control initiatives. Income from operations in our Rest of World region increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 primarily due to the increased sales resulting from improving market conditions in Eastern Europe, Russia and Australia. The growth in income from operations was partially offset by increased market development expenses.

Industry Unit Retail Sales

In North America, industry unit retail sales of tractors for the first nine months of 2011 increased by approximately 1% compared to the first nine months of 2010, resulting primarily from moderate increases in industry unit retail sales of utility and high horsepower tractors, offset by decreases in industry unit retail sales of lower horsepower tractors. Industry unit retail sales of combines for the first nine months of 2011 decreased by approximately 4% compared to strong levels in the prior year period. Higher commodity prices and the expectation of record farm income resulted in the continued strength in retail sales of tractors and combines.

In Western Europe, industry unit retail sales of tractors and combines for the first nine months of 2011 increased approximately 12% and 38%, respectively, compared to the first nine months of 2010. Retail demand increased in most markets, including Germany, France, Scandinavia and Finland. Higher commodity prices and the improvement in the dairy and livestock sectors in the region contributed to the growth in the first nine months of 2011 compared to weak market conditions in the first nine months of 2010.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(continued)

South American industry unit retail sales of tractors in the first nine months of 2011 decreased approximately 4% compared to the elevated levels in the same period in 2010. Industry unit retail sales of combines for the first nine months of 2011 were approximately 24% higher than the prior year period. Growth in other South American markets offset industry sales declines in Brazil and Argentina in the first nine months of 2011 compared to record levels in the first nine months of 2010.

STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the third quarter of 2011 were $2,099.1 million compared to $1,657.4 million for the same period in 2010. Net sales for the first nine months of 2011 were $6,255.4 million compared to $4,728.6 million for the prior year period. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by approximately $120.9 million, or 7.3%, in the third quarter of 2011 and by $390.0 million, or 8.2%, in the first nine months of 2011. The following table sets forth, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the impact to net sales of currency translation by geographical segment (in millions, except percentages):

Regionally, net sales in North America increased during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 primarily due to increased sales of combines, implements and high horsepower tractors resulting from favorable farm economics and strong market conditions. In the EAME region, net sales increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 as a result of improved market conditions. Sales increased in nearly every major market across Europe with the most significant sales increases in Germany, France and Scandinavia. EAME region sales in the first half of 2010 were negatively impacted by weak market conditions and dealer inventory reduction efforts in the region. Net sales in South America, excluding the favorable impact of currency translation, were relatively flat during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010. Sales increases in other South American markets were largely offset by lower sales in Brazil and Argentina. In the Rest of World segment, net sales increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 resulting from market recovery and sales growth in Eastern Europe, Russia and Australia. We estimate that worldwide average price increases during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 were approximately 2.8% and 2.7%, respectively.

Consolidated net sales of tractors and combines, which comprised approximately 73% of our net sales in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, increased approximately 26% and 34% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010. Unit sales of tractors and combines increased approximately 4% and 9% during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010. The difference between the unit sales increase and the increase in net sales was primarily the result of foreign currency translation, pricing and sales mix changes.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage relationship to net sales of certain items in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in millions, except percentages):

⁽¹⁾ Rounding may impact the summation of amounts.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010, primarily due to higher production levels in Europe and North America, favorable pricing, an improved sales mix and leverage over operating expenses. These positive impacts were partially offset by higher material costs as well as higher engineering and marketing expenses. Unit production of tractors and combines during the first nine months of 2011 was approximately 9% higher than the comparable period in 2010. We recorded approximately $0.4 million and $1.1 million of stock compensation expense, within cost of goods sold, during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of stock compensation expense for the comparable periods in 2010, as is more fully explained in Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to higher net sales. Engineering expenses increased during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to the prior year periods primarily due to increased levels of new product development in order to meet new engine emission standards in the United States and Europe. We recorded approximately $6.0 million and $17.0 million of stock compensation expense within SG&A during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to $3.0 million and $8.2 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2010, as is more fully explained in Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Restructuring and other infrequent income was approximately $0.7 million during the first nine months of 2011 primarily due to the reversal of approximately $0.9 million of previously accrued severance payments associated with the rationalization of our French operations. Restructuring and other infrequent expenses was approximately $3.3 million during the first nine months of 2010 primarily related to severance, retention and other related costs associated with the rationalization of our operations in Denmark, Spain, Finland and France.

Interest expense, net was $3.1 million and $21.1 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to $5.8 million and $23.7 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2010. During the second quarter of 2011, we redeemed our €200.0 million of 6 ⁷ / 8 % senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2014, as is more fully discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources.” In connection with the redemption, we recorded a loss of approximately $3.1 million associated with the premium paid to the holders of the notes and a write-off of approximately $1.2 million of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs.

Other expense, net was $7.1 million and $17.3 million during the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to $4.9 million and $9.7 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2010. Foreign currency gains were lower during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Losses on sales of receivables, primarily under our accounts receivable sales agreements with AGCO Finance in North America and Europe, were $6.1 million and $13.5 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to losses of $3.3 million and $9.6 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2010. The increase in 2011 was due to a higher amount of receivables sold in Europe under our accounts receivable sales agreement with AGCO Finance entities in Europe, as is more fully discussed in “Retail Finance Joint Ventures.”

We recorded an income tax provision of $31.6 million and $123.4 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to $14.1 million and $49.8 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2010. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2011 was 30.4% compared 21.6% in the third quarter of 2010. The third quarter 2010 effective tax rate was impacted by the reduction in a valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets in Brazil expected to be realized in the future. The effective tax rate was slightly lower in the first nine months of 2011as compared to the same period in 2010 as a result of an increase in income in jurisdictions, such as the United States, for which no tax provision is being recorded due to previously established valuation allowances against deferred tax assets and net operating loss carryforwards.

Equity in net earnings of affiliates , which is primarily comprised of income from our retail finance joint ventures, was $12.0 million and $37.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively, compared to $11.1 million and $36.4 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2010.

RETAIL FINANCE JOINT VENTURES

Our AGCO Finance retail finance joint ventures provide retail financing to end customers and wholesale financing to our dealers in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Australia, Ireland, the Netherlands, Argentina and Austria. The joint ventures are owned 49% by AGCO and 51% by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A., “Rabobank”, a AAA rated financial institution based in the Netherlands. The majority of the assets of the retail finance joint ventures represent finance receivables. The majority of the liabilities represent notes payable and accrued interest. Under the various joint venture agreements, Rabobank or its affiliates are obligated to provide financing to the joint venture companies, primarily through lines of credit. We do not guarantee the debt obligations of the retail finance joint ventures other than a portion of the retail portfolio in Brazil that is held outside the joint venture by Rabobank Brazil, which was approximately $2.8 million as of December 31, 2010 and will gradually be eliminated over time. As of September 30, 2011, our capital investment in the retail finance joint ventures, which is included in “Investment in affiliates” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was approximately $321.2 million compared to $305.7 million as of December 31, 2010. The total finance portfolio in our retail finance joint ventures was approximately $7.3 billion and $7.0 billion as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The total finance portfolio as of September 30, 2011 included approximately $6.4 billion of retail receivables and $0.9 billion of wholesale receivables from AGCO dealers. The total finance portfolio as of December 31, 2010 included approximately $6.2 billion of retail receivables and $0.8 billion of wholesale receivables from AGCO dealers. The wholesale receivables were either sold to AGCO Finance without recourse from our operating companies or AGCO Finance provided the financing directly to the dealers. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, our share in the earnings of the retail finance joint ventures, included in “Equity in net earnings of affiliates” on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $32.9 million compared to $31.1 million for the same period in 2010.

The retail finance portfolio in our AGCO Finance joint venture in Brazil was approximately $2.0 billion and $2.2 billion as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. As a result of weak market conditions in Brazil in 2005 and 2006, a substantial portion of this portfolio has been included in a payment deferral program directed by the Brazilian government. The impact of the deferral program has resulted in higher delinquencies and lower collateral coverage for the portfolio. While the joint venture currently considers its reserves for loan losses adequate, it continually monitors its reserves considering borrower payment history, the value of the underlying equipment financed and further payment deferral programs implemented by the Brazilian government. To date, our retail finance joint ventures in markets outside of Brazil have not experienced any significant changes in the credit quality of their finance portfolios as a result of the recent global economic challenges. However, there can be no assurance that the portfolio credit quality will not deteriorate, and, given the size of the portfolio relative to the joint ventures' level of equity, a significant adverse change in the joint ventures' performance would have a material impact on the joint ventures and on our operating results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our financing requirements are subject to variations due to seasonal changes in inventory and receivable levels. Internally generated funds are supplemented when necessary from external sources, primarily our revolving credit facility, term loan, accounts receivable sales agreements and accounts receivable securitization facilities.

We believe that these facilities, together with available cash and internally generated funds, will be sufficient to support our working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future:


•	Our $300.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which expires in May 2013 (no amounts were outstanding as of September 30, 2011).


•	Our €200.0 million (or approximately $269.0 million as of September 30, 2011) 4½% senior unsecured term loan (see further discussion below).


•	Our $201.3 million of 1¼% convertible senior subordinated notes, which may be required to be repurchased on December 15, 2013 or could be converted earlier based on the closing sales price of our common stock (see further discussion below).

•

Our accounts receivable sales agreements in the United States and Canada with AGCO Finance LLC and AGCO Finance Canada, Ltd., with total accounts receivable sales and funding of up to $600.0 million for U.S. wholesale accounts receivable and up to C$250.0 million (or approximately $240.7 million as of September 30, 2011) for Canadian wholesale accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2011, approximately $414.8 million of net proceeds had been received under these agreements.


•	Our accounts receivable sales agreements in Europe, whereby we sell a large portion of our wholesale accounts receivable on an ongoing basis to the relevant AGCO Finance entities located in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Austria. As of September 30, 2011, approximately $216.9 million of net proceeds had been received under these agreements.

In addition, although we are in complete compliance with the financial covenants contained in these facilities and currently expect to continue to maintain such compliance, should we ever encounter difficulties, our historical relationship with our lenders has been strong and we anticipate their continued long-term support of our business.

Current Facilities

Our $201.3 million of 1¼% convertible senior subordinated notes due December 15, 2036, issued in December 2006, provide for (i) the settlement upon conversion in cash up to the principal amount of the notes with any excess conversion value settled in shares of our common stock, and (ii) the conversion rate to be increased under certain circumstances if the notes are converted in connection with certain change of control transactions occurring prior to December 15, 2013. Interest is payable on the notes at 1¼% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at an effective price of $40.73 per share, subject to adjustment. This reflects an initial conversion rate for the notes of 24.5525 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. Beginning December 15, 2013, we may redeem any of the notes at a redemption price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest. Holders of the notes may require us to repurchase the notes at a repurchase price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest, on December 15, 2013, 2016, 2021, 2026 and 2031. Refer to the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for a full description of these notes.

The 1¼% convertible senior subordinated notes will impact the diluted weighted average shares outstanding in future periods depending on our stock price for the excess conversion value using the treasury stock method. Refer to Notes 5 and 8 of the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Our $300.0 million unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility matures on May 16, 2013. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the facility, at our option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin ranging between 1.00% and 1.75% based upon our total debt ratio or (2) the higher of the administrative agent's base lending rate or one-half of one percent over the federal funds rate plus a margin ranging between 0.0% and 0.50% based upon our total debt ratio. The facility contains covenants restricting, among other things, the incurrence of indebtedness and the making of certain payments, including dividends, and is subject to acceleration in the event of a default, as defined in the facility. We also must fulfill financial covenants in respect of a total debt to EBITDA ratio and an interest coverage ratio, as defined in the facility. As of September

30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had no outstanding borrowings under the facility. As of September 30, 2011, we had availability to borrow approximately $290.0 million under the facility. As of December 31, 2010, we had availability to borrow approximately $290.2 million under the facility.

Our €200.0 million of 6 ⁷ / 8 % senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2014, issued in April 2004, were redeemed at a price of 101.146% of their principal amount on May 2, 2011, in accordance with the redemption provisions of the indenture agreement. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a loss of approximately $3.1 million associated with the premium paid to the holders of the notes and a write-off of approximately $1.2 million of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with the redemption within “interest expense, net” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We funded the redemption of the notes with a new €200.0 million senior unsecured term loan with Rabobank. The new term loan is due May 2, 2016 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 4½%.

Our accounts receivable sales agreements in North America permit the sale, on an ongoing basis, of substantially all of our wholesale interest-bearing and non-interest bearing receivables in North America to AGCO Finance LLC and AGCO Finance Canada, Ltd., our U.S. and Canadian retail finance joint ventures. We have a 49% ownership in these joint ventures. The accounts receivable sales agreements provide for funding up to $600.0 million of U.S. accounts receivable and up to C$250.0 million (or approximately $240.7 million as of September 30, 2011) of Canadian accounts receivable. The sale of the receivables is without recourse to us. We do not service the receivables after the sale occurs, and we do not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. These agreements are accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions and have the effect of reducing accounts receivable and short-term liabilities by the same amount. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, net cash received from receivables sold under the U.S. and Canadian accounts receivable sales agreements with AGCO Finance LLC and AGCO Finance Canada, Ltd. was approximately $414.8 million and $375.9 million, respectively.

Our accounts receivable sales agreements in Europe permit the sale, on an ongoing basis, of a large portion of our wholesale receivables in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Austria to the relevant AGCO Finance entities in those countries. We do not service the receivables after the sale occurs, and we do not maintain any direct retained interest in the receivables. These agreements are accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions and have the effect of reducing accounts receivable and short-term liabilities by the same amount. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, cash received from receivables sold under these accounts receivable sales agreements was approximately $216.9 million and $169.2 million, respectively.

Our AGCO Finance retail joint ventures in Brazil and Australia also provide wholesale financing to our dealers. The receivables associated with these arrangements are also without recourse to us. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, these retail finance joint ventures had approximately $55.9 million and $50.2 million, respectively, of outstanding accounts receivable associated with these arrangements. These arrangements are accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions. In addition, we sell certain trade receivables under factoring arrangements to other financial institutions around the world. These arrangements are also accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

Former facilities

Our former 1¾% convertible senior subordinated notes due December 31, 2033, originally issued in December 2003 and exchanged in June 2005, provided for (i) the settlement upon conversion in cash up to the principal amount of the converted notes with any excess conversion value settled in shares of our common stock, and (ii) the conversion rate to be increased under certain circumstances if the notes were converted in connection with certain change of control transactions occurring prior to December 10, 2010. The notes were unsecured obligations and were convertible into cash and shares of our common stock upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Interest was payable on the notes at 1¾% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The notes were convertible into shares of our common stock at an effective price of $22.36 per share, subject to adjustment. This reflected an initial conversion rate for the notes of 44.7193 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. Refer to the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for a full description of these notes.

During the first nine months of 2011, holders of our former 1¾% convertible senior subordinated notes converted approximately $161.0 million of the principal amount of the notes. We issued 3,926,574 shares associated with the $195.9 million excess conversion value of the notes. The repayment of the principal of the notes, totaling $161.0 million in the first nine months of 2011 were reflected within “Repurchase or conversion of convertible senior subordinated notes” within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Under our former European securitization facilities, we sold accounts receivable in Europe on a revolving basis to

commercial paper conduits through a qualifying special-purpose entity in the United Kingdom. The European facilities expired in October 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding funded balance of our European securitization facilities was approximately €58.4 million (or approximately $78.6 million as of September 30, 2011). We recognized a liability of approximately $78.6 million equivalent to the funded balance of our European securitization facilities as of September 30, 2011. Our risk of loss under the securitization facilities was limited to a portion of the unfunded balance of receivables sold, which was approximately 10% of the funded amount. We maintained reserves for doubtful accounts associated with this risk.

Cash Flows

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $270.5 million and $4.1 million for the first nine months of 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2011 was primarily due to higher net income.

Our working capital requirements are seasonal, with investments in working capital typically building in the first half of the year and then reducing in the second half of the year. We had $1,323.0 million in working capital at September 30, 2011, as compared with $1,208.1 million at December 31, 2010 and $1,229.0 million at September 30, 2010. Accounts receivable and inventories, combined, at September 30, 2011 were $364.1 million higher than at December 31, 2010 and $210.4 million higher than at September 30, 2010. The increase in accounts receivable and inventories during the first nine months of 2011 was as a result of our recent acquisitions, the impact of currency translation and net sales growth.

Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 2011 were $187.2 million compared to $82.8 million for the first nine months of 2010. We anticipate that capital expenditures for the full year of 2011 will range from approximately $250.0 million to $300.0 million and will primarily be used to support our manufacturing operations, focused on improving productivity, as well as to support the development and enhancement of new and existing products.

Our debt to capitalization ratio, which is total indebtedness divided by the sum of total indebtedness and stockholders' equity, was 15.8% at September 30, 2011 compared to 21.3% at December 31, 2010.

Pending acquisition

On September 30, 2011, we agreed to acquire GSI Holdings Corp. (“GSI”) for approximately $940.0 million. GSI, headquartered in Assumption, Illinois, is a manufacturer of grain storage and protein production systems and sells its products globally through independent dealers. The acquisition of GSI will enable us to provide our customers with a wider range of agricultural products and services. In 2010, GSI had net sales of approximately $713.1 million. We plan to fund the purchase price through borrowings from a newly committed bank credit facility and available cash on hand. The transaction is expected to close before the end of 2011, subject to regulatory approval.

COMMITMENTS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Guarantees

We maintain a remarketing agreement with AGCO Finance LLC, our retail finance joint venture in the United States, whereby we are obligated to repurchase repossessed inventory at market values, limited to $6.0 million in the aggregate per calendar year. We believe that any losses which might be incurred on the resale of this equipment will not materially impact our consolidated financial position or results of operations due to the fair value of the underlying equipment.

At September 30, 2011, we guaranteed indebtedness owed to third parties of approximately $132.4 million primarily related to dealer and end-user financing of equipment. Such guarantees generally obligate us to repay outstanding finance obligations owed to financial institutions if dealers or end users default on such loans through 2015. We believe the credit risk associated with these guarantees is not material to our financial position. Losses under such guarantees historically have been insignificant. In addition, we would expect to be able to recover a significant portion of the amounts paid under such guarantees from the sale of the underlying financed farm equipment, as the fair value of such equipment is expected to be sufficient to offset a substantial portion of the amounts paid.

As of September 30, 2011, we had outstanding designated and non-designated foreign exchange contracts with a notional amount of approximately $1,051.2 million. The outstanding contracts as of September 30, 2011 range in maturity through December 2012. Gains and losses on such contracts are historically substantially offset by losses and gains on the exposures being hedged. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk - Foreign Currency Risk Management” for further information.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(continued)

As discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” we sell substantially all of our wholesale accounts receivable in North America to our retail finance joint ventures in the United States and Canada and a large portion of our wholesale accounts receivable in Europe to the relevant AGCO Finance entities in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Austria. We also sell certain accounts receivable under factoring arrangements to financial institutions around the world. We have reviewed the sale of such receivables and have determined that these facilities should be accounted for as off-balance sheet transactions.

Contingencies

As a result of Brazilian tax legislation impacting value added taxes (“VAT”), we have recorded a reserve of approximately $34.0 million and $22.3 million against our outstanding balance of Brazilian VAT taxes receivable as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, due to the uncertainty as to our ability to collect the amounts outstanding.

In June 2008, the Republic of Iraq filed a civil action against our French subsidiary and two other foreign subsidiaries that participated in the United Nations Oil for Food Program. The French government also is investigating our French subsidiary in connection with its participation in this program.

See Note 15 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of these matters.

OUTLOOK

Global demand for farm equipment is expected to increase in 2011 compared to 2010. Strong farm industry fundamentals and increased order backlogs support the expectation that positive year-to-date trends will continue for the balance of the year.

For the full year of 2011, we expect an increase in net sales and earnings compared to the full year of 2010. Gross margin improvement due to increased production levels and cost control initiatives is expected to be partially offset by increased engineering and market expansion expenditures.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates, including those related to reserves, intangible assets, income taxes, pension and other postretirement benefit obligations, derivative financial instruments, and contingencies. Management bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A description of critical accounting policies and related judgments and estimates that affect the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking, including certain statements set forth under the headings “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” “Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” and “Outlook.” Forward-looking statements reflect assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions or beliefs about future events. These statements, which may relate to such matters as earnings, net sales, industry demand, market conditions, general economic outlook, grain prices and supply, emerging markets, availability of financing, the timing of the closing of GSI acquisition and its expected impact, productivity, cost control and product development and enhancement initiatives, production levels, engineering and market expansion expenses, margin improvements, guarantees of indebtedness, compliance with loan covenants, equipment resales, capital expenditures, and working capital and debt service requirements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, and you can identify certain of these statements, but not necessarily all, by the use of the words “anticipate,” “assumed,” “indicate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “predict,” “forecast,” “rely,” “expect,” “continue,” “grow” and other words of similar meaning. Although we believe that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these statements are reasonable in view of the information currently available to us, there can be no assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct.

These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Adverse changes in any of the following factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements:


•	general economic and capital market conditions;


•	availability of credit to our retail customers;


•	the worldwide demand for agricultural products;


•	grain stock levels and the levels of new and used field inventories;

• cost of steel and other raw materials;

• energy costs;

• performance and collectability of the accounts receivable originated or owned by AGCO or AGCO Finance;


•	government policies and subsidies;


•	weather conditions;


•	interest and foreign currency exchange rates;


•	pricing and product actions taken by competitors;


•	commodity prices, acreage planted and crop yields;


•	farm income, land values, debt levels and access to credit;


•	pervasive livestock diseases;


•	production disruptions;


•	integration of our recent and pending acquisitions;


•	our expansion plans in emerging markets;


•	supply and capacity constraints;


•	our cost reduction and control initiatives;


•	our research and development efforts;


•	dealer and distributor actions;


•	regulations affecting privacy and data protection;


•	technological difficulties; and


•	political and economic uncertainty in various areas of the world.

Any forward-looking statement should be considered in light of such important factors. For additional factors and additional information regarding these factors, please see “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

New factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described above emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors or the extent to which any such factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we disclaim any obligation to update the information contained in such statement to reflect subsequent developments or information except as required by law.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK MANAGEMENT

We have significant manufacturing operations in the United States, France, Germany, Finland and Brazil, and we purchase a portion of our tractors, combines and components from third-party foreign suppliers, primarily in various European countries and in Japan. We also sell products in over 140 countries throughout the world. The majority of our net sales outside the United States are denominated in the currency of the customer location, with the exception of sales in the Middle East, Africa, Asia and parts of South America where net sales are primarily denominated in British pounds, Euros or United States dollars (See “Segment Reporting” in Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 for sales by customer location). Our most significant transactional foreign currency exposures are the Euro, the Brazilian real and the Canadian dollar in relation to the United States dollar, and the Euro in relation to the British pound. Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies create exposures, which can adversely affect our results of operations.

We attempt to manage our transactional foreign currency exposure by hedging foreign currency cash flow forecasts and commitments arising from the anticipated settlement of receivables and payables and from future purchases and sales. Where naturally offsetting currency positions do not occur, we hedge certain, but not all, of our exposures through the use of foreign currency contracts. Our translation exposure resulting from translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into United States dollars is not hedged. Our most significant translation exposures are the Euro, the British pound and the Brazilian real in relation to the United States dollar. When practical, this translation impact is reduced by financing local operations with local borrowings. Our hedging policy prohibits use of foreign currency contracts for speculative trading purposes.

All derivatives are recognized on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. On the date a derivative contract is entered into, we designate the derivative as either (1) a fair value hedge of a recognized liability, (2) a cash flow hedge of a forecasted transaction, (3) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, or (4) a non-designated derivative instrument. We currently engage in derivatives that are cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions as well as non-designated derivative instruments. Changes in the fair value of non-designated derivative contracts are reported in current earnings. During 2011 and 2010, we designated certain foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted sales and purchases. The effective portion of the fair value gains or losses on these cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into cost of goods sold during the period the sales and purchases are recognized. These amounts offset the effect of the changes in foreign currency rates on the related sale and purchase transactions. The amount of the gain (loss) recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) that was reclassified to cost of goods sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $4.9 million and $(4.3) million, respectively, on an after-tax basis. The outstanding contracts as of September 30, 2011 range in maturity through December 2012.

Assuming a 10% change relative to the currency of the hedge contract, this could negatively impact the fair value of the foreign currency instruments by approximately $55.1 million as of September 30, 2011. Using the same sensitivity analysis as of September 30, 2010, the fair value of such instruments would have decreased by approximately $55.3 million. Due to the fact that these instruments are primarily entered into for hedging purposes, the gains or losses on the contracts would largely be offset by losses and gains on the underlying firm commitment or forecasted transaction.

Interest Rates

We manage interest rate risk through the use of fixed rate debt and may in the future utilize interest rate swap contracts. We have fixed rate debt from our convertible senior subordinated notes and the term loan that we recently entered into with Rabobank, replacing our former senior subordinated notes. Our floating rate exposure is related to our credit facility and our securitization facilities, which are tied to changes in United States and European LIBOR rates. Assuming a 10% increase in interest rates, interest expense, net and the cost of our European securitization facilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 would have increased by approximately $0.8 million.

We had no interest rate swap contracts outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2011, have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls or the Company’s internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. We will conduct periodic evaluations of our internal controls to enhance, where necessary, our procedures and controls.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
