Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company has a minority equity interest in Tractors and Farm Equipment Limited (“TAFE”). As of June 30, 2025 the Company entered into several agreements with TAFE, including the ones described further below among others, to resolve all outstanding disputes and other matters related to the commercial relationship between AGCO and TAFE as well as TAFE's shareholding in AGCO, ownership and use of the Massey Ferguson brand in India and certain other countries, and other key governance issues between the parties. Specifically as it relates to AGCO's shareholding in TAFE, the Company and TAFE entered into a Buyback Agreement (the “Buyback Agreement”) pursuant to which TAFE will repurchase the Company’s remaining shareholdings in TAFE for an aggregate amount of $260 million. Generally, the substantive provisions of the agreements are not effective until funds and shares have been deposited in escrow in connection with the closing of the Buyback Agreement, and to accommodate the ultimate effectiveness of the agreements, on July 7, 2025, the Company and TAFE entered into a fourth amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Letter Agreement dated as of April 24, 2019, between AGCO and TAFE, as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of April 24, 2024, Amendment No. 2, dated as of April 23, 2025 and Amendment No. 3., dated as of June 25, 2025 (the “Existing Agreement”, and together with the Amendment, the “Letter Agreement”), which extended the expiration of the Letter Agreement until November 28, 2025 or until the funds and shares have been deposited in escrow in connection with the Buyback Agreement, whichever comes first. Settlement Agreements On June 30, 2025, the Company and TAFE entered into an Arbitrations Settlement Agreement and an India Litigation Settlement Agreement (collectively, the “Settlement Agreements”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to resolve claims arising from the Company’s termination of various commercial and brand agreements with TAFE and related arbitrations and litigation. Under the Settlement Agreements, the parties agreed to mutually release any and all claims against one another. Intellectual Property Agreement On June 30, 2025, the Company and TAFE entered into an Intellectual Property Agreement (the “Intellectual Property Agreement”) pursuant to which TAFE will take ownership of the Massey Ferguson brand in India, Nepal and Bhutan, having previously been a brand licensee for over 60 years, and the Company will retain certain protective rights, including rights of first refusal upon a proposed transfer of these intellectual property assets. The Intellectual Property Agreement also provides for certain customary confidentiality provisions. Buyback Agreement On June 30, 2025, the Company and TAFE entered into a Buyback Agreement (the “Buyback Agreement”) pursuant to which TAFE will repurchase the Company’s remaining shareholdings in TAFE for an aggregate amount of $260 million. Cooperation Agreement On June 30, 2025, the Company and TAFE entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) pursuant to which TAFE agreed to standstill provisions with respect to its actions with regard to the Company, including the limitation on TAFE purchasing additional shares of the Company that would increase its holdings above its current percentage of outstanding shares, the requirement to vote its shares of the Company in accordance with recommendations from the Company’s Board of Directors and not engaging in future public stockholder activism. The standstill provisions do not expire. TAFE retained the discretion to vote independently on any publicly-announced proposals related to an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement). The Cooperation Agreement releases TAFE from the restriction on purchasing shares in the Company following certain events such as (i) the Company’s public announcement of a possible sale of the Company, (ii) any person commencing a Board-approved public tender to acquire the Company, (iii) certain persons (other than TAFE) acquiring 12.5% or more of the Company’s outstanding shares, (iv) any person commencing a Qualified Tender Offer (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement), (v) any person commencing a public tender offer by filing a Schedule TO, or (vi) any person publicly announcing its intention to commence a public tender offer or makes a public offer. TAFE also agreed to participate pro rata in the Company’s share repurchase programs as authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors from time to time, but retains the right to maintain its current percentage level of beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock.
