Bunge Limited ( (BG) ) has released its Q1 earnings. Here is a breakdown of the information Bunge Limited presented to its investors.
Bunge Limited is a global agribusiness and food company that operates in the oilseed processing and plant-based oils and fats sectors, with a focus on connecting farmers to consumers to deliver essential food, feed, and fuel worldwide.
Bunge Limited reported its first quarter 2025 earnings, showing a decline in earnings per share compared to the previous year, amidst a challenging market environment. The company is in the final stages of regulatory approval for its merger with Viterra and has announced divestitures to align its assets with global value chains.
The company’s financial performance in the first quarter was marked by a decrease in net income to $201 million from $244 million the previous year. Adjusted earnings per share fell to $1.81 from $3.04. The agribusiness segment saw a reduction in volumes and net sales, while refined and specialty oils experienced a decline in results due to a more balanced supply and demand environment. Bunge’s cash flow from operations decreased significantly, driven by changes in working capital.
Despite the challenges, Bunge maintains its full-year adjusted EPS outlook of approximately $7.75. The company anticipates slightly lower results in agribusiness and refined oils compared to last year, while milling is expected to perform better. Corporate and other results are projected to improve over the previous year.
Looking ahead, Bunge remains focused on its strategic initiatives, including the Viterra merger and asset divestitures, to enhance its global value chain alignment. The company is optimistic about its ability to navigate the current market conditions and continue delivering value to stakeholders.
