Base and Bull scenarios

Base55%

Price target

$71.52

-11.1% from spot

In the modal base case, carrying an assigned probability of 55.0%, ADM's irreplaceable origination and transportation network stabilizes volume throughput across Ag Services & Oilseeds and Carbohydrate Solutions. Post-maintenance plant restarts proceed smoothly, and processing margins normalize toward historical peer levels rather than remaining at cyclical troughs. Steady execution across human and animal nutrition offsets selective softness in liquid sweeteners, while clean fuel production tax credits provide incremental operating profit. Intrinsic valuation converges toward $71.52, generating an implied return of -11.1% against $80.45, supporting the house Reduce rating given the modest premium to $71.52.

Orderly volume normalization across Ag Services and Carbohydrate Solutions
Crush margins stabilizing near historical peer averages as industry restarts normalize
Full realization of anticipated clean fuel tax credits across North American ethanol facilities
Disciplined capital expenditure maintaining steady dividend distributions and balance-sheet liquidity

Bull20%

Price target

$102.17

+27.0% from spot

In the upside path, with an assigned probability of 20.0%, global demand expansion across core agricultural origination channels drives an extended recovery in processing spreads. Operational debottlenecking across domestic processing assets successfully reduces fixed manufacturing costs per unit, while structural demand for renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel feedstocks sustains elevated vegetable oil pricing. Robust cash conversion delivers substantial free cash flow, accelerating balance-sheet deleveraging and opportunistic equity repurchases. This operational leverage lifts projected earnings and yields an implied target of $102.17, representing an expected return of 27.0% relative to $80.45.

Synchronized global demand expansion across agricultural origination networks
Sustained high capacity utilization and premium renewable diesel feedstock off-take
Consolidated operating margins expanding toward upper historical mid-cycle bounds
Accelerated free cash flow generation enabling debt paydown and active share repurchases
