John Deere | 1Q 2021 Earnings Call | February 19, 2021 23 Segment Reporting Q&A Why is Deere changing segment reporting? The updated segment reporting aligns with the new operating model. While Production & Precision Ag and Small Ag & Turf will continue to collaborate to leverage efficiencies, the business segments will be managed separately to accommodate the specific needs of each customer base. Why are Mid Tractors included in both Production & Precision Ag and Small Ag & Turf? Mid Tractors are used in operations across both business segments. Therefore, the product line is split based on end use of equipment by production system. Will Deere disaggregate Production & Precision Ag and Small Ag & Turf by geography? Splits will be provided in revenue recognition disclosures in subsequent quarterly filings. Will Deere split Construction and Forestry into further segments? There are no plans to further segment Construction and Forestry. 44
