Company-Specific Insights Deere & Co. (DE) - Less than 5% of U.S. sales are manufactured in Mexico, with over 75% of products sold in the U.S. assembled domestically - The Agriculture and Turf division is a net exporter, positioning the company well against potential trade policy changes [2] CNH Industrial (CNH) - Manufactures large equipment in the U.S. and relies on global sourcing, particularly from China and Europe - Plans to manage tariff impacts by passing costs along, but is concerned about potential retaliatory measures from China affecting U.S. farmers [2] AGCO Corporation (AGCO) - 40% of North American sales are produced outside the U.S., with 25-30% from Europe - Tariffs involving Mexico and Canada are not expected to significantly impact AGCO, but European tariffs could necessitate pricing adjustments [2] PACCAR Inc. (PCAR) - Majority of production is local for local, with manufacturing facilities in the U.S. for Kenworth and Peterbilt - The Mexico facility primarily serves Mexico and Central/South America, with limited exposure to U.S. markets [2] Cummins Inc.

(URI) - Most purchases are domestically produced, focusing on maintaining competitive pricing amidst potential tariff impacts [12] Herc Holdings, Inc. (HRI) - Majority of fleet sourced from domestic manufacturers, maintaining multiple suppliers for negotiation leverage [12] Custom Truck One Source (CTOS) - Faces significant tariff implications on chassis sourced from Mexico and Canada, monitoring potential changes [12] Tariff Implications - Proposed tariffs set to take effect on January 20, 2025, include an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods and a 25% tariff on products from Mexico and Canada - Most companies have tiered suppliers in these countries, which may lead to inflationary cost pressures that need to be managed through pricing or supply chain diversification [8] Conclusion - The U.S. machinery industry is navigating complex supply chain dynamics and potential tariff impacts, with companies preparing to adjust strategies to mitigate risks and maintain competitiveness in the market [8][11][12]
