“Two years ago, we established ambitious margin targets for our Agriculture and Construction segments, which we achieved earlier than planned. These results, in conjunction with record full year revenue and net income, reflect the CNH team’s tireless efforts to simplify the company, expand through-cycle margins, integrate world-class technology with our great iron, and put our customers at the center of everything we do. With more challenging end markets in Q4, robust contributions from our cost reduction focus and disciplined commercial execution drove margin expansion, and we will remain aggressive on these fronts moving forward. I have tremendous confidence in this CNH team’s ability, regardless of market conditions, to create a bright future for our company, our customers, and our dealers.”
