Current report
Viterra Acquisition
Current report
On July 2, 2025, we completed our previously announced Acquisition of Viterra. Pursuant to the terms of the business combination agreement, Viterra shareholders received approximately 65.6 million registered shares of Bunge, with an aggregate value of approximately $5.3 billion as of July 2, 2025 and approximately $1.9 billion in cash, in return for 100% of the outstanding equity of Viterra.
Current report
This section is inclusive of the results of operations of Viterra from the date of Acquisition, July 2, 2025. As such, the Acquisition of Viterra is frequently one of the primary drivers of the year-over-year variances discussed throughout this section.
Current report
Total EBIT- For the year ended December 31, 2025, Total EBIT was $1,533 million, a decrease of $259 million compared to Total EBIT of $1,792 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in Total EBIT for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to lower Corporate and Other EBIT, resulting from higher SG&A expense and a reduction in Other income - net due to the settlement of one of the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans, an impairment charge related to certain long-term investments, and the absence of a prior year gain on the sale of Bunge's 50% ownership share in BP Bunge Bioenergia. This decrease was partially offset by higher Segment EBIT, resulting primarily from higher results in our Soybean Processing and Refining segment and a gain on the sale of Bunge's North America corn milling business recognized in our Grain Merchandising and Milling segment. The Segment Overview and Results of Operations section below provides further details, as well as, a reconciliation of Net income attributable to Bunge shareholders to Total EBIT.
Current report
Reportable Segments
Current report
Soybean Processing and Refining segment Net sales increased 14%, to $36,313 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to Net sales contributions from the Acquisition of Viterra, in addition to overall higher prices in Argentina, which encouraged farmer selling and higher volumes of oilseeds merchandised in our global soybean distribution business. The increases were partially offset by lower prices in almost all other regions driven by relative price stabilization from a more balanced supply environment as well as lower processed volumes in Argentina due to a reduction in third-party tolling activity.
Current report
Cost of goods sold increased 13%, to $34,548 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The net increase was primarily due to higher Net sales, partially offset by a reduction in mark-to-market losses.
Current report
Foreign exchange losses - net decreased 73%, to a loss of $35 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The lower net loss in the current year is primarily the result of a weaker U.S. dollar on U.S. dollar-denominated loans payable in non-U.S. dollar functional currency operations, partially offset by losses resulting from unfavorable hedging and remeasurement results on monetary assets.
Current report
Other income - net decreased 75%, to $27 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower gains in Argentina related to foreign currency positioning compared to the prior year, as well as a $15 million reserve for expected credit losses related to certain loan guarantees for a minority investment in South America.
Current report
Income (loss) from affiliates increased 143%, to net income of $22 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to improved results from our portfolio of equity method investments, particularly in South America, and a $19 million nonrecurring impairment charge in the prior period associated with a minority investment in North America.
Current report
Segment EBIT increased 40%, to $1,225 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The net increase was primarily driven by improved results in our South American soybean processing and refining businesses and contributions from the Viterra Acquisition, partially offset by lower results in our North American processing and refining business. In addition, the increase is the result of a reduction in foreign currency losses and income from affiliates in the current period compared to losses from affiliates in the prior period as further described above. The increase was partially offset by the reduction in Other income - net further described above.
Current report
Cost of goods sold decreased 9%, to $30,516 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The net decrease was primarily due to lower Net sales as described above. The decrease was partially offset by unfavorable mark-to-market results compared to the prior year.
Current report
EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interests, an expense when subsidiaries with noncontrolling interests generate earnings before interest and tax, versus income when subsidiaries with noncontrolling interests generate loss before interest and tax, decreased 89%, to an expense of $8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was due to less favorable results recognized by our less than wholly-owned subsidiary, Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC.
Current report
Softseed Processing and Refining segment Net sales increased 62%, to $11,252 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to Net Sales contributions from the Viterra Acquisition, in addition to higher average sales prices in our European business resulting from a drought in the region impacting the sunflower seed crop in the current year and higher prices in our global softseed distribution business. The above increases were partially offset by lower volumes for both oilseeds processed and oilseeds merchandised across all our legacy business.
Current report
Cost of goods sold increased 73%, to $10,575 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase in Cost of goods sold was primarily due to higher Net sales as well as unfavorable mark-to-market results. In addition, the prior year included insurance recoveries for damaged property and business interruption related to our Ukrainian operations as a result of the Ukraine-Russia war.
Current report
Foreign exchange gains (losses) - net increased 393% to a gain of $79 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The net gain in the current year is primarily the result of a weaker U.S. dollar on U.S. dollar-denominated loans payable in non-U.S. functional currency operations and net remeasurement gains on net monetary liabilities, excluding the impacts of loan payables described above, as a result of U.S. dollar exposure in non-U.S dollar functional currency operations.
Current report
Segment EBIT decreased 21%, to $521 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The net decrease was primarily due to lower results in our legacy European and North American businesses, partially offset by the contribution from the Acquisition of Viterra as well as foreign currency gains as described above.
Current report
Foreign exchange gains (losses) - net decreased 187%, to a loss of $27 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The net loss in the current year was primarily due to the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar on U.S. dollar-denominated loans payable in non-U.S. dollar functional currency operations.
Current report
Segment EBIT decreased 38%, to $663 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower results in all businesses and regions, as well as foreign exchange losses.
Current report
Other Oilseeds Processing and Refining segment Net sales increased 12%, to $4,633 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher sales prices in our tropical oils business due to stronger demand resulting from global biofuel mandates and import tariffs, partially offset by lower volumes.
Current report
Cost of goods sold increased 18%, to $4,256 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher net sales in addition to unfavorable mark-to-market results.
Current report
EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interests, an expense when subsidiaries with noncontrolling interests generate earnings before interest and tax, versus income when subsidiaries with noncontrolling interests generate loss before interest and tax, decreased 61% to expense of $13 million resulting from less favorable results attributable to noncontrolling interests in our Loders joint venture primarily due to lower results in the Europe region from the competitive market environment.
Current report
Segment EBIT decreased 45%, to $118 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower results in our tropical oils business in addition to a decrease in EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interests, as described above.
Current report
Grain Merchandising and Milling segment Net sales increased 80%, to $18,128 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to Net sales contributions from the Viterra Acquisition, in addition to higher sales prices and volumes in our global corn business, as well as higher volumes in our global wheat business as a result of higher demand across various regions for both businesses. The increase was partially offset by lower average sales prices in our global wheat business, in addition to the lack of recurring sales from our North American corn milling business that was divested in the second quarter of 2025 (see Note 2- Acquisitions and Dispositions to our consolidated financial statements).
Current report
Cost of goods sold increased 85%, to $17,520 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase in Cost of goods sold was primarily due to higher Net Sales in addition to unfavorable mark-to-market results. In addition, the prior year included insurance recoveries for damaged property and business interruption related to our Ukrainian operations as a result of the Ukraine-Russia war.
Current report
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 50% to $391 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the Viterra Acquisition.
Current report
Other income - net increased 309% to a gain of $331 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $155 million gain on the sale of Bunge's North America corn milling business in the second quarter of 2025, in addition to gains in Argentina related to foreign currency positioning.
Current report
Segment EBIT increased 14%, to $465 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher Other income - net, as described above, partially offset by higher Selling, general and administrative expense and lower results from our ocean freight and financial services businesses.

Refined and Specialty Oils
Previous report
In the Refined and Specialty Oils segment, our operating results are affected by changes in the prices of raw materials such as crude vegetable oils, the mix of products that we sell, changes in consumer eating habits, changes in per capita income, consumer purchasing power levels, availability of credit to customers, governmental dietary guidelines and policies, changes in regional economic conditions, and the general competitive environment in our markets. Raw material inputs to our production processes in the Refined and Specialty Oils segment are largely sourced at market prices from our Agribusiness segment. Reported volumes in this segment reflect sales volumes to third-party customers. The unit of measure for these volumes is metric tons as these businesses are linked to the commodity raw materials, which are their primary inputs.
Previous report
Milling
Previous report
In the Milling segment, our operating results are affected by changes in the prices of raw materials such as grains, the mix of products that we sell, changes in consumer eating habits, changes in per capita income, consumer purchasing power levels, availability of credit to customers, governmental dietary guidelines and policies, changes in regional economic conditions and the general competitive environment in our markets. Raw material inputs to our production processes in the Milling segment are largely sourced at market prices from our Agribusiness segment. Reported volumes in this segment reflect feedstock ground (processed) during a period, again approximating sales volumes during the same period. The unit of measure for these volumes is metric tons as these businesses are linked to the commodity raw materials, which are their primary inputs.
Previous report
Viterra
Previous report
Following the completion of our pending Viterra Acquisition, our operations will be impacted by the integration of Viterra's network of agricultural storage, processing, and transport assets. Viterra businesses operate in similar industries as we do, so we expect the factors that impact Viterra's operations will be broadly consistent with the factors that we have described above that impact each of our segments.
Previous report
Sugar and Bioenergy
Previous report
Our Sugar and Bioenergy segment primarily comprised our 50% interest in BP Bunge Bioenergia, a joint venture with BP. On October 1, 2024, we completed the sale of our 50% interest in BP Bunge Bioenergia. See Note 2 -Acquisitions and Dispositionsto our consolidated financial statements for further details.
Previous report
BP Bunge Bioenergia operated on a stand-alone basis with a total of 11 mills located across the Southeast, North, and Midwest regions of Brazil. We accounted for our interest in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, our reported Sugar and Bioenergy results include our share of the net earnings in BP Bunge Bioenergia.
Previous report
Prior to the sale of our interest in October 2024, profitability of this segment, the value of our investment, and the timing of distributions we received, if any, were affected by the profitability of the joint venture. In turn, the profitability of the joint venture was affected by the availability and quality of sugarcane, which impacted capacity utilization rates and the amount of sugar that could be extracted from the sugarcane, and by market prices of sugar and ethanol. The availability and quality of sugarcane is affected by many factors, including weather, geographical factors such as soil quality and topography, and agricultural practices. Demand for the joint venture's products was affected by many factors, including changes in global or regional economic conditions, the financial condition of customers and customer access to credit, worldwide consumption of food products, population growth rates, changes in per capita income, and demand for and governmental support of renewable fuels produced from agricultural commodities, including sugarcane.
Previous report
In addition to these industry related factors which impact our business areas, our results of operations in all business areas and segments are affected by the following factors:
Previous report
EBIT- For the year ended December 31, 2024, Total EBIT was $1,792 million, a decrease of $1,541 million compared to EBIT of $3,333 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in Total EBIT for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to lower Core Segment EBIT, resulting primarily from lower gross profit in our Agribusiness segment, as further discussed in the Segment Overview and Results of Operations section below, and which also provides a reconciliation of Net income attributable to Bunge shareholders to Total EBIT.

Previous report
Milling Segment
Previous report
Milling segment Net sales decreased 18%, to $1,555 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales prices in both our South American wheat milling and North American corn milling businesses. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in volumes across both regions.
Previous report
Cost of goods sold decreased 23%, to $1,337 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales prices, as described for Net sales above, as well as favorable mark-to-market results.

Non-core Segment
Previous report
Sugar and Bioenergy Segment
Previous report
Segment EBIT increased 31%, to $215 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $195 million gain on the sale of Bunge's 50% ownership share in BP Bunge Bioenergia, recorded in Other income - net. The increase was partially offset by less favorable results from our investment in BP Bunge Bioenergia, primarily resulting from the absence of a tax valuation allowance release in the current period as compared to the prior period, current period foreign exchange losses on U.S. dollar denominated debt at BP Bunge Bioenergia, lower current period gross margins, and lower equity method earnings following the sale. See Note 2- Acquisitions and Dispositions in the consolidated financial statements for further details regarding the Company's disposition of BP Bunge Bioenergia.
Previous report
Inventories - Inventories were $6,491 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease of $614 million from $7,105 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to certain lower average commodity prices, including soybeans and wheat, as well as overall lower volumes.
Previous report
Other current liabilities- Other current liabilities were $2,828 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease of $85 million from $2,913 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower income tax payable as a result of lower earnings, partially offset by higher unrealized losses on derivative contracts as a result of volatile commodity prices.
Previous report
(2)Incremental commitments are available to be drawn following the completion of the Viterra Acquisition subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
Previous report
Our total debt increased by $1,356 million to $6,238 million at December 31, 2024, from $4,882 million at December 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in Long-term debt, including current portion, resulting from the issuance of three tranches of the September 2024 Senior Notes for an aggregate principal amount of $2.0 billion, partially offset by the prepayment of a $750 million 3-year term loan agreement due in 2025. See Note 17- Debtfor further information.
Previous report
As described in Note 2- Acquisitions and Dispositions, we have secured a total of $8.0 billion in acquisition debt financing ("Acquisition Financing"). On September 17, 2024, we completed the sale and issuance of three tranches of Senior Notes for an aggregate principal amount of $2.0 billion. See Note 17- Debtfor further information. As a result of the Senior Notes issuance, and in accordance with its terms, the Acquisition Financing commitment was reduced by $2.0 billion with $6.0 billion available as of December 31, 2024. Bunge intends to use a portion of the proceeds from the Acquisition Financing and Senior Notes issuance to fund a portion of the cash consideration for Bunge's Acquisition of Viterra and to repay a portion of certain Viterra debt to be assumed in connection with the Acquisition, including, in each case, related fees and expenses, and, with any remaining amounts, for general corporate purposes.

The common unit of measure for all reported volumes is metric tons.
Previous wording
In the Agribusiness segment, we purchase, store, transport, process, and sell agricultural commodities and commodity products. Profitability in this segment is affected by the availability and market prices of agricultural commodities and processed commodity products and the availability and costs of energy, transportation, and logistics services. Profitability in our processing operations is also impacted by volumes procured, processed, and sold and by capacity utilization rates. Availability of agricultural commodities is affected by many factors, including weather, farmer planting and selling decisions, plant diseases, governmental policies, and agricultural sector economic conditions. Reported Processing volumes comprise oilseed volumes crushed (processed) during a period, which approximate sales volumes to third parties during the same period. Reported Merchandising volumes represent sales volumes to third-party customers.

Previous wording
Additionally, price fluctuations and availability of commodities may cause fluctuations in our working capital, reflected in the level of inventories, accounts receivable, and outstanding borrowings over the course of a given year. For example, increased availability of commodities at harvest times often causes fluctuations in our inventories and borrowings. Increases in agricultural commodity prices will also generally cause our cash flow requirements to increase as our operations require increased use of cash and associated borrowings to acquire inventories and fund daily settlement requirements on exchange-traded futures that we use to hedge our physical inventories.

As a Swiss corporation, we are subject to corporate income tax at federal, cantonal, and communal levels on our Swiss income. Qualifying net dividend income and net capital gains on the sale of qualifying investments in subsidiaries are effectively exempt from federal, cantonal, and communal corporate income tax. Consequently, we expect dividends from our subsidiaries and capital gains from sales of investments in our subsidiaries to be exempt from Swiss corporate income tax. In addition, our subsidiaries, which operate in multiple tax jurisdictions, are subject to income taxes at various statutory rates ranging from 0% to 35%. The jurisdictions that significantly impact our effective tax rate are Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Switzerland and the United States. Determination of taxable income requires the interpretation of related and often complex tax laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which we operate, and the use of estimates and assumptions regarding future events.

Core reportable segments, Non-core reportable segments, and Total reportable segments together with Corporate and Other. Core Segment EBIT is the aggregate of the EBIT of each of Bunge’s Agribusiness, Refined and Specialty Oils, and Milling reportable segments. Non-core Segment EBIT is the EBIT of Bunge’s Sugar & Bioenergy reportable segment. Total EBIT is the aggregate of the EBIT of Bunge’s Core and Non-core reportable segments, together with Corporate and Other. Bunge’s management believes Core Segment EBIT, Non-core Segment EBIT, Corporate and Other EBIT, and Total EBIT are useful measures of operating profitability since the measures allow for an evaluation of the performance of its segments without regard to financing methods or capital structure. In addition, EBIT is a financial measure that is widely used by analysts and investors in Bunge’s industry. Total EBIT is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace Net income attributable to Bunge, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Further, Total EBIT excludes EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interests and is not a measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP. See the reconciliation of Net income attributable to Bunge to Total EBIT below.
