Deere (DE) , headquartered in Moline, Illinois, manufactures agricultural machinery, heavy equipment, forestry machinery, diesel engines, and related components.
One of the oldest companies in the United States, Deere traces its history back to John Deere's "self-scouring plow" in 1837.
However, even assuming 50 bushels per acre and a $5/bushel average price increase, the revenue per acre would have risen by ~$250/acre.
However, while Deere & Company stock has underperformed the S & P this year, its enterprise value is nearly $100 Billion, almost double the company's valuation in January 2020, just before the pandemic.
Unsurprisingly, DE options are pricing in a larger-than-average 6% move when the company reports earnings on Thursday.
