Forward guidance

ADM expects 2022 results to exceed 2021's, driven by reduced crop supplies and enduring global trends fueling demand for their products.

Tailwinds

  • Reduced crop supplies are expected to drive continued tightness in global grain markets.
  • Enduring global trends are fueling performance across ADM's portfolio by driving demand for their products.
  • Productivity and innovation efforts are continuing to help ADM deliver on the evolving needs of its customers.
  • ADM's team is executing well and managing risk effectively.
  • Exceptional growth in Nutrition is contributing to strong performance.

Headwinds

  • Weak Canadian canola crop is contributing to reduced crop supplies.
  • Short South American crops are contributing to reduced crop supplies.
  • Disruptions in the Black Sea region are contributing to reduced crop supplies.
  • North American origination margins and volumes were lower year over year, including approximately $75 million in negative timing effects, which will reverse in the coming quarters.
  • Vantage Corn Processors delivered solid execution margins, but position losses on ethanol inventory as prices fell early in the quarter drove lower results versus the prior year.
