Bunge Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results
St. Louis, MO - July 31, 2024 - Bunge Global SA (NYSE: BG) today reported second quarter 2024 results
•Q2 GAAP diluted EPS of $0.48 vs. $4.09 in the prior year; $1.73 vs. $3.72 on an adjusted basis excluding certain gains/charges and mark-to-market timing differences
•Lower Agribusiness results reflect a more balanced global supply environment
•Refined and Specialty Oils performed well, but results were down from a strong prior year
•Excellent progress on Viterra integration planning and other strategic priorities including the announced sale of our interest in the sugar & bioenergy joint venture
•Updating adjusted full-year EPS outlook to approximately $9.25
Greg Heckman, Bunge’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our team delivered solid results for the second quarter while also moving forward on a range of strategic priorities, including announcing the sale of our interest in the BP Bunge Bioenergia joint venture. The integration planning process for Viterra is progressing well and the team is excited about the opportunities that the combination will create for our employees, customers and other important stakeholders.
“Current market conditions have improved in some regions, but we continue to have limited visibility into the latter part of the year. The drivers of long-term demand remain strong and with our global footprint and operating flexibility, we are well-positioned to connect farmers to consumers to deliver essential food, feed and fuel to the world.”

Sugar & Bioenergy Summary
Results were down driven by lower Brazilian ethanol prices more than offsetting higher sugar prices. Results were also negatively impacted by approximately $15 million in foreign exchange translation losses on U.S. dollar denominated debt. Results in the prior year included a $39 million benefit from the reversal of a tax valuation allowance.

Cash used for operations in the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $480 million compared to cash provided of $472 million in the same period last year. The reduction of cash from operations was primarily driven by lower reported net income and net changes in working capital. Adjusted funds from operations (FFO) was $895 million compared to $1,360 million in the prior year.(4)
Income Taxes
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, income tax expense was $147 million compared to $381 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower pre-tax income.
Taking into account first half results and the current margin environment and forward curves, we now expect full-year 2024 adjusted EPS of approximately $9.25.
In Agribusiness, full-year results are forecasted to be in line with our previous outlook, reflecting higher results in Processing, largely offset by lower results in Merchandising. Results are expected to be down compared to last year.
In Refined and Specialty Oils, full-year results are expected to be up from our previous outlook due to the better than expected second quarter, but down compared to last year’s record performance.
In Milling, full-year results are expected to be similar to our previous outlook and up from last year.
In Corporate and Other, full-year results are expected to be similar to our previous outlook.
In Non-Core, full-year results in the sugar & bioenergy joint venture are expected to be down slightly from our previous outlook and significantly down from last year.
Additionally, the Company expects the following for 2024: an adjusted annual effective tax rate of 22% to 25%; net interest expense in the range of $280 to $310 million; capital expenditures in the range of $1.2 to $1.4 billion; and depreciation and amortization of approximately $450 million.

| Ø | Definition and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures |
This earnings release contains certain "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Bunge has reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures below. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Total Segment EBIT and Adjusted Total Segment EBIT
Bunge uses segment earnings before interest and tax (“Segment EBIT”) to evaluate the operating performance of its individual segments. Segment EBIT excludes EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interests. Bunge also uses Core Segment EBIT, Non-core Segment EBIT, Corporate and Other EBIT and Total Segment EBIT to evaluate the operating performance of Bunge’s Core reportable segments, Non-core reportable segments and Total reportable segments together with Corporate and Other. Core Segment EBIT is the aggregate of the earnings before interest and taxes of each of Bunge’s Agribusiness, Refined and Specialty Oils, and Milling segments. Non-core Segment EBIT is the earnings before interest and taxes of Bunge’s Sugar & Bioenergy segment. Total Segment EBIT is the aggregate of the earnings before interest and taxes of Bunge’s Core and Non-core reportable segments, together with its Corporate and Other activities.
Adjusted Core Segment EBIT, Adjusted Non-Core Segment EBIT, Adjusted Corporate and Other EBIT and Adjusted Total Segment EBIT, are calculated by excluding temporary mark-to-market timing differences, as defined in note 3 below, and certain gains and (charges), as described in "Additional Financial Information" above, from Core Segment EBIT, Non-Core Segment EBIT, Corporate and Other EBIT, and Total Segment EBIT, respectively.
Core Segment EBIT, Non-core Segment EBIT, Corporate and Other EBIT, Total Segment EBIT, Adjusted Core Segment EBIT, Adjusted Non-core Segment EBIT, Adjusted Corporate and Other EBIT and Adjusted Total Segment EBIT are non-GAAP financial measures and are not intended to replace Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Bunge's management believes these non-GAAP measures are a useful measure of its operating profitability, since the measures allow for an evaluation of segment performance without regard to their financing methods or capital structure. For this reason, operating performance measures such as these non-GAAP measures are widely used by analysts and investors in Bunge's industries. These non-GAAP measures are not a measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income (loss) or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP.
Net Income (loss) attributable to Bunge to Adjusted Net Income (loss) attributable to Bunge
Adjusted Net Income (loss) excludes temporary mark-to-market timing differences, as defined in note 3 below, and certain gains and (charges), as described in "Additional Financial Information" above, and is a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure is not a measure of Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. It should not be considered as an alternative to Net Income (loss) attributable to Bunge, Net Income (loss), or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted Net income (loss) is a useful measure of the Company's profitability.
We also have presented projected Adjusted Net income per share for 2024. This information is provided only on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliation to projected Net Income per share for 2024, the mostly directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. The most directly comparable GAAP measure has not been provided due to the inability to quantify certain amounts necessary for such reconciliation, including but not limited to potentially significant future market price movements over the remainder of the year.

Adjusted Funds From Operations
Adjusted FFO is calculated by excluding from Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, foreign exchange gain (loss) on net debt, working capital changes, net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests, and mark-to-market timing differences after tax. Adjusted FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Bunge's management believes the presentation of this measure allows investors to view its cash generating performance using the same measure that management uses in evaluating financial and business performance and trends without regard to foreign exchange gains and losses, working capital changes and mark-to-market timing differences. This non-GAAP measure is not a measure of consolidated cash flow under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Cash provided by (used for) operating activities, Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash, or any other measure of consolidated cash flow under U.S. GAAP.
(1) A reconciliation of Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge, to Net income (loss) is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three months ended June 30, | | Six months ended June 30, |
| (US$ in millions) | 2024 | 2023 | | 2024 | | 2023 |
| Net income (loss) attributable to Bunge | $ | 70 | | $ | 622 | | | $ | 314 | | | $ | 1,254 | |
| EBIT attributable to noncontrolling interest | 4 | | 4 | | | 6 | | | 29 | |
| Noncontrolling interest share of interest and tax | (1) | | 3 | | | 5 | | | 5 | |
| Net income (loss) | $ | 73 | | $ | 629 | | | $ | 325 | | | $ | 1,288 | |
(2) The Processing business included in our Agribusiness segment consists of: global oilseed processing activities, which principally include the origination and crushing of oilseeds (including soybeans, canola, rapeseed and sunflower seed) into protein meals and vegetable oils; the distribution of oilseeds, oilseed products and fertilizer products through our port terminals and transportation assets (including trucks, railcars, barges and ocean vessels); fertilizer production; and biodiesel production, which is partially conducted through joint ventures.
The Merchandising business included in our Agribusiness segment primarily consists of: global grain origination activities, which principally include the purchasing, cleaning, drying, storing and handling of corn, wheat and barley at our network of grain elevators; global trading and distribution of grains and oils; logistical services for the distribution of these commodities to our customer markets through our port terminals and transportation assets (including trucks, railcars, barges and ocean vessels); and financial services and activities for customers from whom we purchase commodities, and other third parties.
(3) Mark-to-market timing difference comprises the estimated net temporary impact resulting from unrealized period-end gains/losses associated with the fair valuation of certain forward contracts, readily marketable inventories (RMI), and related futures contracts associated with our committed future operating capacity. The impact of these mark-to-market timing differences, which is expected to reverse over time due to the forward contracts, RMI, and related futures contracts being part of an economically-hedged position, is not representative of the operating performance of our business.
(4) A reconciliation of Cash provided by (used for) operating activities to Adjusted funds from operations (FFO) is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six months ended June 30, |
| (US$ in millions) | 2024 | | 2023 |
| Cash provided by (used for) operating activities | $ | (480) | | | $ | 472 | |
| Foreign exchange gain (loss) on net debt | (103) | | | 174 | |
| | | |
| Working capital changes | 1,237 | | | 965 | |
| Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests | (11) | | | (34) | |
| Mark-to-Market timing difference, after tax | 252 | | | (217) | |
| Adjusted FFO | $ | 895 | | | $ | 1,360 | |
(5) We have not presented a comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for any full-year 2024 outlook financial measures presented on an adjusted, non-GAAP basis because the information necessary for such presentation is unavailable at this time. The information necessary to prepare the comparable U.S. GAAP presentation could result in significant differences from the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release. Please see “Definition and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” for more information.
(6) On November 1, 2023, Bunge Global SA completed the change of its jurisdiction of incorporation of its group holding company from Bermuda to Switzerland (the "Redomestication"). The Redomestication, which was approved by Bunge Limited shareholders on October 5, 2023, was effected pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under Bermuda law. Each common share of Bunge Limited was cancelled in exchange for an equal number and par value of registered shares of Bunge Global SA (the "registered shares"). References to
the terms "share," "common share," or "registered share" refer to Bunge Limited common shares prior to the Redomestication and Bunge Global SA registered shares after the Redomestication, unless otherwise specified.
