Archer-Daniels-Midland reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, on May 6, 2025. The company's earnings before income taxes were $353 million, a 60% decrease compared to the prior year quarter. GAAP earnings per share were $0.61, down 57%, and adjusted earnings per share were $0.70, down 52%.
Total segment operating profit for the quarter was $747 million, a 38% decline year-over-year. The Ag Services and Oilseeds segment's operating profit decreased by 52%, and Carbohydrate Solutions saw a 3% decline. However, the Nutrition segment showed signs of recovery with a 13% increase in operating profit.
ADM affirmed its full-year 2025 adjusted EPS guidance in the range of $4.00 to $4.75, but now anticipates results at the lower end of this range. This cautious outlook reflects persistent pressure on crush margins, signs of weakening customer demand in certain Carbohydrate Solutions markets, and ongoing market uncertainty.
