AGCO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of AGCO Corporation and
subsidiaries (the "Company" or "AGCO") included herein have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal
recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position,
results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.
Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the fiscal year. Certain reclassifications of previously reported
financial information were made to conform to the current presentation. These
reclassifications include the reclassification of shipping and handling fees and
costs in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 00-10
"Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs".

2. AG-CHEM ACQUISITION

On April 16, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of Ag-Chem
Equipment Co., Inc. ("Ag-Chem"), a manufacturer and distributor of
self-propelled sprayers. The Company paid Ag-Chem shareholders approximately
$247.2 million consisting of approximately 11.8 million AGCO common shares and
$147.5 million of cash. The funding of the cash component of the purchase price
was made through borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility.

The Ag-Chem acquisition was accounted for as a purchase in accordance
with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 16, and, accordingly, the purchase
price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed
based on a preliminary estimate of fair values as of the acquisition date. In
connection with the acquisition of Ag-Chem, the Company established liabilities
primarily related to severance, employee relocation and other costs associated
with the planned closure of Ag-Chem's Benson, Minnesota manufacturing facility,
Minnetonka, Minnesota administrative office and fifteen parts and service
facilities. The activity related to these liabilities is summarized in the
following table (in millions):

The severance relates to the planned termination of approximately 350
Ag-Chem employees, of which approximately 275 had been terminated as of
September 30, 2001.

3. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER INFREQUENT EXPENSES

In the second quarter of 2001, the Company announced its plans to
rationalize certain facilities as part of the Ag-Chem acquisition integration.
The Company has commenced the consolidation of AGCO's Willmar, Minnesota
manufacturing facility and Ag-Chem's Benson, Minnesota manufacturing facility
into Ag-Chem's Jackson, Minnesota manufacturing plant. In addition, the Company
is in the process of closing Ag-Chem's Minnetonka, Minnesota administrative
offices and relocating all functions to the Jackson facility. Lastly, the
Company is in the process of closing fifteen Ag-Chem parts and service
facilities and integrating parts warehousing and logistics into AGCO's existing
North America parts distribution system.

In connection with these closures, the Company recorded restructuring
and other infrequent expenses of $6.7 million during the second and third
quarters of 2001. The components of the restructuring and other infrequent
expenses are summarized in the following table (in millions):

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Reserve Balance
2001 Expenses at September 30,
Expense Incurred 2001
-------- -------- -----------------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Employee severance $ 0.6 $ 0.4 $ 0.2
Employee retention payments 1.4 0.7 0.7
Facility closure costs 0.6 0.5 0.1
Write-down of property, plant and equipment 0.4 0.4 --
Facility relocation and transition costs 3.7 3.7 --
-------- -------- -------
$ 6.7 $ 5.7 $ 1.0
======== ======== =======
</TABLE>

The severance relates to the planned termination of approximately 200
AGCO employees of which approximately 170 were terminated as of September 30,
2001. The employee retention payments relate to incentives to be paid to Ag-Chem
and AGCO employees who remain employed until certain future termination dates
and are accrued over the term of the retention period. The facility closure
costs include employee costs and other exit costs to be incurred at Willmar
after operations cease. The write-down of property, plant and equipment
represents the impairment of machinery and equipment at Willmar from the
facility closures and was based on the estimated fair value of the assets
compared to their carrying value. The facility relocation and transition costs
are being expensed as incurred and represent costs to relocate employees,
inventory and machinery and costs to integrate operations into the retained
facilities. The $1.0 million of costs accrued at September 30, 2001 are expected
to be incurred in 2001.

In 2000, the Company permanently closed its combine manufacturing
facility in Independence, Missouri and its Lockney, Texas and Noetinger,
Argentina implement manufacturing facilities. In 1999, the Company permanently
closed its Coldwater, Ohio manufacturing facility. The majority of production in
these facilities has been relocated to existing Company facilities or outsourced
to third parties. In connection with these facility closures, the Company
recorded restructuring and other infrequent expenses of $3.8 million in the
first nine months of 2001. A summary of the expenses and related reserves
associated with these closures is included in the following table (in millions):

The expenses incurred in 2001 primarily relate to production transition
costs. In addition, the Company recorded credits totaling $1.4 million relating
to recoveries from the sale of property and the reversal of closing cost
reserves which will not be incurred.


4. LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consisted of the following at September 30, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 (in millions):

Other long-term debt 29.8 7.4
----------- -----------

$ 719.7 $ 570.2
=========== ===========
</TABLE>

On April 17, 2001 the Company issued $250.0 million of 9 1/2% Senior
Notes due 2008 (the "Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes are unsecured obligations
of the Company and are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in
part, commencing May 1, 2005 initially at 104.75% of their principal amount,
plus accrued interest, declining to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued
interest on or after May 1, 2007. The indenture governing the Senior Notes
requires the Company to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at 101% of their
principal amount, plus accrued interest to the date of the repurchase in the
event of a change in control. The indenture also contains certain covenants
that, among other things, limit the Company's ability (and that of its
restricted subsidiaries) to incur additional indebtedness; make restricted
payments (including dividends and share repurchases); make investments;
guarantee indebtedness; create liens; and sell assets. The proceeds were used to
repay borrowings outstanding under the Company's existing revolving credit
facility and support the financing of the Ag-Chem acquisition.

On April 17, 2001 the Company entered into a $350.0 million
multi-currency revolving credit facility with Rabobank that will mature October
2005. The facility is secured by a majority of the Company's U.S., Canadian and
U.K. based assets and a pledge of the stock of the Company's domestic and
material foreign subsidiaries. Interest will accrue on borrowings

outstanding under the facility, at the Company's option, at either (1) LIBOR
plus a margin based on a ratio of the Company's senior debt to EBITDA, as
adjusted, or (2) the administrative agent's base lending rate or the federal
funds rate plus a margin ranging between .625% and 1.5%, whichever is higher.
The facility contains covenants, including covenants restricting the incurrence
of indebtedness and the making of restrictive payments, including dividends. In
addition, the Company must fulfill financial covenants including, among others,
a total debt to EBITDA ratio, a senior debt to EBITDA ratio and a fixed charge
coverage ratio, as defined in the facility. The proceeds were used to repay
borrowings outstanding under the Company's then existing revolving credit
facility.


5. INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the
first-in, first-out method. Market is net realizable value for finished goods
and repair and replacement parts. For work in process, production parts and raw
materials, market is replacement cost.

Inventory balances at September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 were as

6. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

The computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings
per share are presented in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings per common
share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share
assumes exercise of outstanding stock options and vesting of restricted stock
when the effects of such assumptions are dilutive.

A reconciliation of net income (loss) and the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income
(loss) per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001
and 2000 is as follows (in millions, except per share data):

8. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION

In the second quarter, the Company entered into account receivable
securitization facilities in Europe and Canada, whereby wholesale accounts
receivable are sold on a revolving basis. The facilities allow for funding up to
approximately $150 million. In connection with the closing of these facilities,
the Company incurred transaction costs and an initial loss of sales of
receivables of $3.6 million. At September 30, 2001, the Company had funded
approximately $372.5 million under the Company's securitization facilities in
the United States, Canada and Europe.

9. PREFERRED STOCK

On March 23, 2001, the Company sold non-voting preferred shares, which
were convertible into shares of the Company's common stock, in a private
placement with net proceeds of approximately $5.3 million. On June 1, 2001,
these preferred shares were converted into 555,000 shares of the Company's
common stock.

10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133 "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 138.
The cumulative effect for adopting this standard as of January 1, 2001 resulted
in a fair value asset, net of taxes of approximately $0.5 million, which is
expected to be reclassified to earnings over the next twelve months. All
derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. On the date the
derivative contract is entered, the Company designates the derivative as either
(1) a fair value hedge of a recognized liability, (2) a cash flow hedge of a
forecasted transaction, (3) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation,
or (4) a non-designated derivative instrument. The Company currently engages in
derivatives that are classified as cash flow hedges and non-designated
derivative instruments. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is
designated as a cash flow hedge are recorded in other comprehensive income until
reclassified into earnings at the time of settlement of the forecasted
transaction. Changes in the fair value of non-designated derivative contracts
and the ineffective portion of designated derivative instruments are reported in
current earnings.

The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging
instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objectives and
strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company formally
assesses, both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the
derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in
offsetting changes in fair values or cash flow of hedged items. When it is
determined that a derivative is no longer highly effective as a hedge, hedge
accounting is discontinued on a prospective basis.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company has significant manufacturing operations in the United
States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Denmark and Brazil, and it
purchases a portion of its tractors, combines and components from third party
foreign supplies, primarily in various European countries and in Japan. The
Company also sells products in over 140 countries throughout the world. The
Company's most significant transactional foreign currency exposures include: (i)
the British pound in relation to the Euro and the U.S. dollar and (ii) the Euro
and the Canadian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar.

The Company attempts to manage its transactional foreign exchange
exposure by hedging identifiable foreign currency cash flow commitments arising
from receivables, payables, and expected purchases and sales. Where naturally
offsetting currency positions do not occur, the Company hedges certain of its
exposures through the use of foreign currency forward contracts.

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge
receivables and payables on the Company's balance sheet that are denominated in
foreign currencies other than the functional currency. These forward contracts
are classified as non-designated derivatives instruments. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2001, the Company recorded losses of approximately $6.4
million included in current earnings under the caption of other expense, net.
These losses were substantially offset by gains on the remeasurement of the
underlying asset or liability being hedged.

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge forecasted
foreign currency inflows and outflows resulting from purchases and sales. The
Company currently has hedged anticipated foreign currency cash flows up to
twelve months in the future. As of September 30, 2001, the Company had deferred
losses, net of taxes, of approximately $0.1 million included in stockholders'
equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The deferred loss
is expected to be reclassified to earnings during the next twelve months. The
Company recorded no gain or loss resulting from a forward contract's
ineffectiveness or discontinuance as a cash flow hedge.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure
to interest rate changes. Currently, the Company has an interest rate swap which
matures in December 2001 that has the effect of converting a portion of the
Company's floating rate debt to a fixed rate. The Company has designated this
swap agreement as a cash flow hedge. As of September 30, 2001, the Company had a
deferred loss, net of tax, of less than $0.1 million included in stockholders'
equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. This deferred
loss is expected to be reclassified to current earnings on or before the
maturity date of the swap. The Company had no material gain or loss resulting
from the interest rate swap agreement's ineffectiveness as a cash flow hedge. In
addition, no portion of the swap agreement was discontinued as a cash flow
hedge.

The Company's senior management establishes the Company's foreign
currency and interest rate risk management policies. This policy is reviewed
periodically by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The policy allows
for the use of derivative instruments to hedge exposures to movements in foreign
currency and interest rates. The Company's policy prohibits the use of
derivative instruments for speculative purposes.


11. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has five reportable segments: North America; South America;
Europe/Africa/Middle East; Asia/Pacific; and Sprayer Division. Each regional
segment distributes a full range of agricultural equipment and related
replacement parts. The Sprayer division manufactures and distributes
self-propelled agricultural sprayers and replacement parts. The Company
evaluates segment performance primarily based on income from operations. Sales
for each regional segment are based on the location of the third-party customer.
All intercompany transactions between the segments have been eliminated. The
Company's selling, general and administrative expenses and engineering expenses
are charged to each segment based on the region and division where the expenses
are incurred. As a result, the components of operating income for one segment
may not be comparable to another segment. As a result of the Ag-Chem
acquisition, the Company created a new segment, the Sprayer Division, which
includes Ag-Chem and the Company's existing sprayer operations. Prior period
segment results have been restated to conform with the new segments. Segment
results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are as
follows (in millions):

13. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 prospectively prohibits the pooling of interest
method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
SFAS No. 142 requires companies to cease amortizing goodwill on December 31,
2001 that was in existence at June 30, 2001. Any goodwill resulting from
acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001 will not be amortized. SFAS No. 142
also establishes a new method of testing goodwill for impairment on an annual
basis or on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that
would reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The
adoption of SFAS No. 142 will result in the Company's discontinuation of
amortization of its goodwill; however, the Company will be required to test its
goodwill for impairment under the new standard in 2002, which could have an
adverse effect on the Company's future results of operations if an impairment
occurs. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this statement on the
Company's results of operations and financial position.

In July 2001, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"). SFAS No. 143 requires entities to
record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the
period in which it is incurred. When the liability


22
AGCO Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
(Unaudited)

is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the cost by increasing the
carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is
accreted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is
depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the
liability, the entity either settles the obligation for the amount recorded or
incurs a gain or loss. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2002. Management is evaluating the effect of this statement on
the Company's results of operations and financial position.

In August 2001, the FASB issued statement No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144"). SFAS No. 144
supersedes FASB statement No. 121. "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121"), and the
accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the
Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of Segment of a
Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and
Transactions" ("Opinion 30") for the disposal of a segment of business (as
previously defined in Opinion 30). The FASB issued SFAS No. 144 to establish a
single accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121, for
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. SFAS No. 144 broadens the
presentation of discontinued operations in the income statement to include a
component of an entity (rather than a segment of a business). A component of an
entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished,
operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity.
SFAS No. 144 also requires that discontinued operations be measured at the lower
of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. SFAS No. 144 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and should be
applied prospectively. Management is evaluating the effect of this statement on
the Company's results of operations and financial position.

ITEM 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The Company's operations are subject to the cyclical nature of the
agricultural industry. Sales of the Company's equipment have been and are
expected to continue to be affected by changes in net cash farm income, farm
land values, weather conditions, demand for agricultural commodities, commodity
prices and general economic conditions. The Company records sales when the
Company ships equipment and replacement parts to its independent dealers,
distributors or other customers. To the extent possible, the Company attempts to
ship products to its dealers and distributors on a level basis throughout the
year to reduce the effect of seasonal demands on its manufacturing operations
and to minimize its investment in inventory. Retail sales by dealers to farmers
are highly seasonal and are a function of the timing of the planting and
harvesting seasons. As a result, the Company's net sales have historically been
the lowest in the first quarter and have increased in subsequent quarters.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company recorded net income for the quarter ended September 30,
2001 of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to $2.4 million, or
$0.04 per diluted share, for the same period in 2000. Net income before
extraordinary loss for the first nine months of 2001 was $0.2 million,
representing less than $0.01 per share, compared to a loss of $4.2 million, or
$0.07 per share, for the same period in 2000. The results for the third quarter
and first nine months of 2001 included restructuring and other infrequent
expenses ("restructuring expenses") of $4.9 million, or $0.04 per share, and
$10.5 million, or $0.10 per share, respectively, primarily related to the
integration of Ag-Chem Equipment Company, Inc. ("Ag-Chem") acquired in April
2001 and the rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities. In addition,
the year-to-date earnings include an extraordinary loss, net of taxes, of $0.8
million, or $0.01 per share, for the write-off of unamortized debt costs
associated with the Company's revolving credit facility, which was refinanced in
April 2001. The results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2000
included restructuring expenses of $4.5 million, or $0.05 per share and $19.5
million, or $0.20 per share, respectively, associated with the closure of
certain manufacturing facilities announced in 2000 and 1999.

AGCO's earnings for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001
were negatively impacted by losses at Ag-Chem for the period since acquisition.
The Ag-Chem acquisition was completed after Ag-Chem's seasonally strongest
period, typically the first calendar quarter of the year. The impact of the
Ag-Chem acquisition, excluding restructuring expenses, was a reduction in net
income of approximately $6.5 million, or $0.12 per share for the third quarter
and $8.5 million, or $0.15 per share for the first nine months of 2001 including
the additional shares issued in the transaction. In addition, the Company
incurred higher cost of sales of $1.9 million for the third quarter and $7.9
million for the first nine months of 2001 associated with inefficiencies at
AGCO's Hesston, Kansas manufacturing facility during the initial production of
products relocated from closed facilities. For the first nine months ended
September 30, 2001, AGCO's earnings were negatively impacted by approximately
$4.0 million of costs associated with the initial funding of securitization
facilities and approximately $2.6 million of expenses to

Results of Operations (Continued)


obtain covenant waivers from note holders of the Company's 8.5% senior
subordinated notes regarding the payment of dividends on the Company's common
stock. In 2000, the first nine months included a loss of $8.0 million, or $0.08
per share, associated with the closing of the U.S. accounts receivable
securitization facility completed in January 2000.

RETAIL SALES

In North America, industry retail unit sales of tractors and combines
for the first nine months of 2001 increased approximately 8% and 23%,
respectively, compared to the same period in 2000. Company retail unit sales of
tractors in North America increased and Company retail unit sales of combines
declined in the first nine months of 2001 compared to the same period in the
prior year. The Company's retail unit sales of combines were lower due to the
timing of production and deliveries compared to the prior year period.

In Western Europe, industry retail unit sales of tractors declined
approximately 7% for the first nine months of 2001 compared to the prior year.
The Western European market remains lower than the prior year but has stabilized
as concerns over BSE (mad cow disease) and foot-and-mouth disease have
diminished. Company retail unit sales for the first nine months also declined
compared to 2000.

Industry retail unit sales of tractors in South America for the first
nine months of 2001 increased approximately 12% compared to 2000. The major
market of Brazil continued its strong growth due to full availability of a
supplemental Brazilian government subsidized retail financing program. The
growth in the Brazilian market was partially offset by declines in the Argentina
market. Company retail unit sales also increased during the first nine months of
2001 compared to the prior year period.

In most other international markets, Company net sales for the first
nine months were slightly below the comparable prior year period. The Company is
monitoring its Middle Eastern business for any disruptions resulting from the
conflict in the region.

STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the third quarter of 2001 were $577.2 million compared to
$521.1 million for the same period in 2000. Net sales for the first nine months
of 2001 were $1,768.6 million compared to $1,696.7 million for the prior year.
Net sales generated by Ag-Chem subsequent to acquisition for the quarter and
first nine months of 2001 were $37.5 million and $91.5 million, respectively.
Net sales for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001 were negatively
impacted by foreign currency translation by approximately $30.0 million and
$106.0 million for the third quarter and first nine months respectively, due to
the strength of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Euro and Brazilian real.
Excluding the impact of the Ag-Chem acquisition and foreign currency
translation, net sales were 9.2% and 5.1% higher for the third quarter and first
nine months, respectively, when compared to the prior year.

Regionally, net sales in North America increased $27.6 million, or
18.6%, for the third quarter of 2001 and increased $28.1 million, or 6.2%, for
the first nine months of 2001 compared


25
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)


to the same periods in 2000 due primarily to improved market conditions. In the
Europe/Africa/Middle East region, net sales for the third quarter of 2001
decreased $1.1 million, or 0.4%, compared to 2000 and decreased $47.5 million,
or 4.9%, for the first nine months of 2001 compared to 2000 primarily due to the
negative impact of foreign currency translation and the result of industry
declines in Western Europe. Net sales in South America decreased approximately
$2.6 million, or 3.8%, for the third quarter of 2001, and increased $9.2
million, or 5.3%, for the first nine months of 2001 compared to 2000 with strong
sales increases being offset by the impact of currency translation. In the
Asia/Pacific region, net sales decreased approximately $2.4 million, or 8.2%,
for the third quarter of 2001, and $6.6 million, or 8.6%, for the first nine
months of 2001 compared to 2000 primarily due to the impact of currency
translation. In the Sprayer Division, net sales increased $34.6 million and
$88.7 million, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001
compared to the same periods in 2000. The increase is due primarily to the
acquisition of Ag-Chem, which contributed net sales of approximately $37.5
million and $91.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001,
respectively.

Gross profit was $102.6 million (17.8% of net sales) for the third
quarter of 2001 compared to $90.3 million (17.3% of net sales) for the same
period in the prior year. Gross profit was $298.8 million (16.9% of net sales)
for the first nine months of 2001 compared to $272.4 million (16.1% of net
sales) for the same period in the prior year. Gross margins improved for the
quarter and first nine months primarily due to cost reduction initiatives and
the impact of new higher margin products. This margin improvement was offset, in
part, by cost inefficiencies in the Hesston plant aggregating approximately $1.9
million and $7.9 million, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine
months of 2001. These inefficiencies were primarily due to the initial
production run of combines and planters in this facility.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the third
quarter of 2001 were $63.8 million (11.1% of net sales) compared to $56.4
million (10.8% of net sales) for the same period in the prior year. For the
first nine months of 2001, SG&A expenses were $183.7 million (10.4% of net
sales) compared to $170.7 million (10.1% of net sales) for the same period in
the prior year. The increase as a percentage of net sales for both the quarter
and first nine months was the result of Ag-Chem, which had a higher SG&A expense
ratio to net sales than the remainder of the Company. Engineering expenses for
the third quarter and first nine months of 2001 were $12.3 million (2.1% of net
sales) and $37.2 million (2.1% of net sales), respectively, compared to $12.4
million (2.4% of net sales) and $33.7 million (2.0% of net sales), respectively,
for the same periods in the prior year. The year-to-date increase is due to the
addition of engineering expenses of Hay & Forage Industries acquired in May 2000
and Ag-Chem subsequent to acquisition.

The Company recorded restructuring expenses of $4.9 million and $10.5
million for the third quarter and first nine months ended September 30, 2001.
The restructuring expenses included $4.0 million, and $6.6 million of costs
related to the integration Ag-Chem recorded in the third quarter and first nine
months of 2001, respectively. The remaining expenses primarily related to costs
associated with manufacturing facility rationalization programs. See
"Restructuring and Other Infrequent Expenses" for further discussion. For the
third quarter and first nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company
recorded $4.5 million and $19.5 million, respectively, for costs associated with
manufacturing facility closures.


26
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)


Amortization of intangibles for the third quarter and first nine months
of 2001 increased $1.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively, compared to 2000,
primarily due to the amortization of goodwill associated with the Ag-Chem
acquisition.

Income from operations was $16.7 million (2.9% of net sales) and $53.8
million (3.0% of net sales) for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001,
respectively, compared to $13.1 million (2.5% of net sales) and $37.3 million
(2.2% of net sales), respectively, for the same period in the prior year.
Excluding restructuring expenses, operating income was $21.6 million (3.7% of
net sales) and $64.3 million (3.6% of net sales) for the third quarter and first
nine months of 2001, respectively, compared to $17.6 million (3.4% of net sales)
and $56.8 million (3.3% of net sales) for the comparable periods in 2000,
respectively. The improvement for the third quarter and first nine months is due
to higher gross margins as discussed previously.

Interest expense, net was $15.6 million and $45.0 million for the third
quarter and first nine months of 2001, respectively, compared to $11.0 million
and $34.3 million, respectively, for the same period in 2000. The increase in
interest expense for the third quarter and first nine months primarily relates
to increased indebtedness related to the Ag-Chem acquisition. Interest expense,
net for the first nine months of 2001 also included $2.0 million of the $2.6
million related to the successful waiver solicitation on the Company's 8 1/2%
Senior Subordinated Notes.

Other expense, net was $4.8 million and $22.5 million for the third
quarter and first nine months of 2001, respectively, compared to $5.7 million
and $26.8 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2000. During the third
quarter of 2001, losses on sales of receivables primarily under the Company's
securitization facilities were $4.9 million compared to $5.1 million for the
same period in 2000. For the first nine months of 2001, losses on the sales of
receivables primarily under the Company's securitization facilities were $18.6
million compared to $19.8 million for the same period in 2000. In the second
quarter of 2001, the Company completed securitization facilities in Europe and
Canada totaling $150.0 million. As a result, the first nine months of 2001
includes $3.6 million of up-front losses and transaction costs associated with
the initial funding of these facilities. The first nine months of 2000 included
$7.1 million of up-front losses and transaction costs associated with the
initial $200.0 million funding of the U.S. securitization facility.

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.8 million and $5.6
million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001, respectively,
compared to an income tax benefit of $3.4 million and of $11.5 million for the
same periods in 2000. The tax benefit in the third quarter of 2000 included the
recognition of a United States tax credit carryback of approximately $2.0
million.

Equity in earnings of affiliates was $2.3 million and $8.3 million for
the third quarter and first nine months of 2001, respectively, compared to $2.6
million and $8.1 million for the same periods in 2000.


27
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)


During the second quarter of 2001, the Company recorded a $0.8 million
extraordinary loss, net of taxes, representing the write-off of the unamortized
debt issuance costs associated with the Company's revolving credit facility,
which was refinanced in April 2001.

AG-CHEM ACQUISITION

On April 16, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of Ag-Chem
Equipment Co., Inc. ("Ag-Chem"), a manufacturer and distributor of
self-propelled sprayers. The Company paid Ag-Chem shareholders approximately
$247.2 million consisting of approximately 11.8 million AGCO common shares and
$147.5 million of cash. The funding of the cash component of the purchase price
was made through borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility.

The Ag-Chem acquisition was accounted for as a purchase in accordance
with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 16, and, accordingly, the purchase
price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed
based on a preliminary estimate of fair values as of the acquisition date. In
connection with the acquisition of Ag-Chem, the Company established liabilities
primarily related to severance, employee relocation and other costs associated
with the planned closure of Ag-Chem's Benson, Minnesota manufacturing facility,
Minnetonka, Minnesota administrative office and fifteen parts and service
facilities. The activity related to these liabilities is summarized in the
following table (in millions):

======= ======= =======
</TABLE>


The severance relates to the planned termination of approximately 350
Ag-Chem employees, of which approximately 275 had been terminated as of
September 30, 2001.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER INFREQUENT EXPENSES

In the second quarter of 2001, the Company announced its plans to
rationalize certain facilities as part of the Ag-Chem acquisition integration.
The Company has commenced the consolidation of AGCO's Willmar, Minnesota
manufacturing facility and Ag-Chem's Benson, Minnesota manufacturing facility
into Ag-Chem's Jackson, Minnesota manufacturing plant. In addition, the Company
is in the process of closing Ag-Chem's Minnetonka, Minnesota administrative
offices and relocating all functions to the Jackson facility. Lastly, the
Company is in the process of closing fifteen Ag-Chem parts and service
facilities and integrating parts warehousing and logistics into AGCO's existing
North America parts distribution system. These closures are expected to result
in the reduction of cost of goods sold and operating expenses for the combined
businesses and generate a portion of the targeted $30 million of synergies to be
achieved in the acquisition.



28
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)


In connection with these closures, the Company recorded restructuring
and other infrequent expenses of $6.7 million during the second and third
quarters of 2001. The components of the restructuring and other infrequent
expenses are summarized in the following table (in millions):

<TABLE>

======= ======= =======
</TABLE>

The severance relates to the planned termination of approximately 200
AGCO employees of which approximately 170 were terminated as of September 30,
2001. The employee retention payments relate to incentives to be paid to Ag-Chem
and AGCO employees who remain employed until certain future termination dates
and are accrued over the term of the retention period. The facility closure
costs include employee costs and other exit costs to be incurred at Willmar
after operations cease. The write-down of property, plant and equipment
represents the impairment of machinery and equipment at Willmar from the
facility closures and was based on the estimated fair value of the assets
compared to their carrying value. The facility relocation and transition costs
are being expensed as incurred and represent costs to relocate employees,
inventory and machinery and costs to integrate operations into the retained
facilities. The $1.0 million of costs accrued at September 30, 2001 are expected
to be incurred in 2001. In addition, the Company expects to incur additional
restructuring expenses of $5 to $7 million in the balance of 2001 related to
these closures.

In 2000, the Company permanently closed its combine manufacturing
facility in Independence, Missouri and its Lockney, Texas and Noetinger,
Argentina implement manufacturing facilities. In 1999, the Company permanently
closed its Coldwater, Ohio manufacturing facility. The majority of production in
these facilities has been relocated to existing Company facilities or outsourced
to third parties. In connection with these facility closures, the Company
recorded additional restructuring and other infrequent expenses of $3.8 million
in the first nine months of 2001. A summary of the expenses and related reserves
associated with these closures is included in the following table (in millions):

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)


The expenses incurred in 2001 primarily relate to production transition
costs. In addition, the Company recorded credits totaling $1.4 million relating
to recoveries from the sale of property and the reversal of closing cost
reserves which will not be incurred.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's financing requirements are subject to variations due to
seasonal changes in inventory and dealer receivable levels. Internally generated
funds are supplemented when necessary from external sources, primarily the
Company's revolving credit facility and accounts receivable securitization
facilities.

During the first nine months of 2001, the Company completed a number of
transactions, which modified the Company's capital structure and replaced the
Company's existing revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to expire in
January 2002.

The Company entered into a $350.0 million multi-currency revolving
credit facility with Rabobank that will mature October 2005. The facility is
secured by a majority of the Company's U.S., Canadian and U.K. based assets and
a pledge of the stock of the Company's domestic and material foreign
subsidiaries. Interest will accrue on borrowings outstanding under the facility,
at the Company's option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin based on a ratio of
the Company's senior debt to EBITDA, as adjusted, or (2) the administrative
agent's base lending rate or the federal funds rate plus a margin ranging
between .625% and 1.5%, whichever is higher. The facility contains covenants,
including covenants restricting the incurrence of indebtedness and the making of
restrictive payments, including dividends. In addition, the Company must fulfill
financial covenants including, among others, a total debt to EBITDA ratio, a
senior debt to EBITDA ratio and a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the
facility. The proceeds were used to repay borrowings outstanding under the
Company's existing revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2001 the
Company had borrowings of $191.1 million and availability to borrow $153.4
million under its revolving credit facility.

The Company issued $250.0 million of 9 1/2% Senior Notes due 2008 (the
"Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and
are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, commencing May
1, 2005 initially at 104.75% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest,
declining to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest on May 1,
2007. The indenture governing the Senior Notes requires the Company to offer to
repurchase the Senior Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued
interest to the date of the repurchase in the event of a change in control. The
indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limits the
Company's ability (and that of its restricted subsidiaries) to incur additional
indebtedness; make restricted payments (including dividends and share
repurchases); make investments; guarantee indebtedness; create liens; and sell
assets and share repurchases. The proceeds were used to pay borrowings
outstanding under the Company's existing revolving credit facility and support
the financing of the Ag-Chem acquisition.

Lastly, the Company completed accounts receivable securitization
facilities totaling approximately $150.0 million whereby certain European and
Canadian wholesale accounts


30
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)


receivable from the Company's operations in Europe and Canada may be sold to a
third party on a revolving basis. The Company used the proceeds from these
securitization facilities to reduce outstanding borrowings under its new
revolving credit facility.

As a result, the Company's primary financing and funding sources are
the $250.0 million 8 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006, the Senior Notes,
a $350.0 million revolving credit facility and approximately $400.0 million of
accounts receivable securitization facilities in the U.S., Canada and Europe.

The Company's working capital requirements are seasonal, with
investments in working capital typically building in the first half of the year
and then reducing in the second half of the year. The Company had $584.1 million
of working capital at September 30, 2001, a decrease of $19.8 million from
working capital of $603.9 million at December 31, 2000. Accounts receivable and
inventory combined were $50.0 million lower than at the end of September 2000.
The change includes a $142.0 million reduction resulting from the increased
funding of securitization facilities in 2001, offset by the addition of $109.0
million of Ag-Chem receivables and inventory. The net change in receivables and
inventory, excluding these items is a reduction of approximately $17.0 million
compared to September 2000. The majority of this reduction is due to currency
translation.

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $95.4 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $116.4 million provided by
operating activities for the same period during 2000. Operating cash flow
benefited from an additional $142.0 million in receivables securitization
funding in 2001 and $200.0 million in funding in 2000.

Capital expenditures for the first nine months ended September 30, 2001
were $23.5 million compared to $33.4 million for the same period in 2000. The
Company anticipates that additional capital expenditures for the remainder of
2001 will range from approximately $20.0 million to $25.0 million and will
primarily be used to support the development and enhancement of new and existing
products as well as facility, equipment and systems improvements.

The Company's debt to capitalization ratio (total long-term debt
divided by the sum of total long-term debt and stockholders' equity) was 46.3%
at September 30, 2001 compared to 41.9% at December 31, 2000. The increase is
primarily attributable to higher debt incurred in connection with the Ag-Chem
acquisition partially offset by the reduction in debt resulting from increased
funding of accounts receivable securitization facilities.

The Company believes that available borrowings under the Company's
revolving credit facility, funding under the accounts receivable securitization
facilities, available cash and internally generated funds will be sufficient to
support its working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements
for the foreseeable future.

The Company from time to time reviews and will continue to review
acquisition and joint venture opportunities as well as changes in the capital
markets. If the Company were to consummate a significant acquisition or elect to
take advantage of favorable opportunities in the capital markets, the Company
may supplement availability or revise the terms under its credit facilities or
complete public or private offerings of equity or debt securities.

OUTLOOK

The Company expects to improve operating margins in 2001 through cost
reductions from manufacturing facility rationalizations, product resourcing,
material cost reductions and other initiatives. The Company's earnings for 2001
will be adversely impacted by the incremental debt and common shares issued in
connection with the Ag-Chem acquisition. As a result of the mid-April closing
date and the timing of identified synergies, AGCO's results for 2001 will not
reflect Ag-Chem's seasonally strongest period and AGCO will not generate
sufficient operating earnings to cover the acquisition carrying costs. Improved
operating income in North and South America are expected to offset this impact
as well as weakness in the Western European market. As a result, the Company
anticipates it will increase profitability compared to 2000.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 141 "Business
Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No.
141 prospectively prohibits the pooling of interest method of accounting for
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires
companies to cease amortizing goodwill on December 31, 2001, that was in
existence at June 30, 2001. Any goodwill resulting from acquisitions completed
after June 30, 2001 will not be amortized. SFAS No. 142 also establishes a new
method of testing goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or on an interim
basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would reduce the fair
value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The adoption of SFAS No. 142
will result in the Company's discontinuation of amortization of its goodwill;
however, the Company will be required to test its goodwill for impairment under
the new standard in 2002, which could have an adverse effect on the Company's
future results of operations if an impairment occurs. Management is currently
evaluating the effect of this statement on the Company's results of operations
and financial position.

In July 2001, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"). SFAS No. 143 requires entities to
record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the
period in which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the
entity capitalizes the cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related
long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each
period and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the
related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, the entity either settles the
obligation for the amount recorded or incurs a gain or loss. SFAS No. 143 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Management is
evaluating the effect of this statement on the Company's results of operations
and financial position.

In August 2001, the FASB issued statement No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144"). SFAS No. 144
supersedes FASB statement No. 121. "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be

Results of Operations (Continued)


Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121"), and the accounting and reporting provisions of
APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects
of Disposal of Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions" ("Opinion 30") for the disposal
of a segment of business (as previously defined in Opinion 30). The FASB issued
SFAS No. 144 to establish a single accounting model, based on the framework
established in SFAS No. 121, for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale.
SFAS No. 144 broadens the presentation of discontinued operations in the income
statement to include a component of an entity (rather than a segment of a
business). A component of an entity comprises operations and cash flows that can
be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes,
from the rest of the entity. SFAS No. 144 also requires that discontinued
operations be measured at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less
cost to sell. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001 and should be applied prospectively. Management is evaluating
the effect of this statement on the Company's results of operations and
financial position.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this report are
forward looking, including certain statements set forth under "Outlook",
"Results of Operations" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" headings. Forward
looking statements reflect the Company's expectations with respect to factors
that affect net sales, restructuring and infrequent expenses, cost reduction
projections, future capital expenditures, fulfillment of working capital needs,
and plans with respect to acquisitions. Although the Company believes that the
statements it has made are based on reasonable assumptions, they are based on
current information and beliefs and, accordingly, the Company can give no
assurance that its statements will be achieved. In addition, these statements
are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those suggested by the forward looking statements. These factors include, but
are not limited to, general economic and capital market conditions, the demand
for agricultural products, world grain stocks, crop production, commodity
prices, farm income, farm land values, government farm programs and legislation,
the levels of new and used field inventories, weather conditions, interest and
foreign currency exchanges rates, the conversion to the Euro, pricing and
product actions taken by competitors, customer access to credit, production
disruptions, supply and capacity constraints, Company cost reduction and control
initiatives, Company research and development efforts, labor relations, dealer
and distributor actions, technological difficulties, changes in environmental,
international trade and other laws, the impact of the SFAS No. 142 requirement
that the Company test for impairment of goodwill, and political and economic
uncertainty in various areas of the world. Further information concerning
factors that could significantly affect the Company's results is included in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company
disclaims any responsibility to update any forward looking statements.

ITEM 3:           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company has significant manufacturing operations in the United
States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Denmark and Brazil, and it
purchases a portion of its tractors, combines and components from third party
foreign suppliers, primarily in various European countries and in Japan. The
Company also sells products in over 140 countries throughout the world. The
majority of the Company's revenue outside the United States is denominated in
the currency of the customer location with the exception of sales in the Middle
East, Africa and Asia which is primarily denominated in British pounds, Euros or
U.S. dollars. The Company's most significant transactional foreign currency
exposures are (i) the British pound in relation to the Euro and the U.S. dollar
and (ii) the Euro and the Canadian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar.
Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies create exposures, which can
adversely affect the Company's results of operations.

The Company attempts to manage its transactional foreign exchange
exposure by hedging identifiable foreign currency cash flow commitments arising
from receivables, payables, and committed purchases and sales. Where naturally
offsetting currency positions do not occur, the Company hedges certain of its
exposures through the use of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company's
hedging policy prohibits foreign currency forward contracts for speculative
trading purposes. The Company's translation exposure resulting from translating
the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars is not
hedged. The Company's most significant translation exposures are the British
pound, the Euro and the Brazilian real in relation to the U.S. dollar. When
practical, this translation impact is reduced by financing local operations with
local borrowings.

For additional information, see the Company's most recent annual report
filed on Form 10-K (Item 7A). There has been no material change in this
information
