“The CNH team navigated a declining market environment in the first quarter, as lower industry demand persisted especially in South America and Europe. Anticipating these headwinds, we are continuing to improve what we can control – production efficiency, disciplined commercial execution, judicious SG&A reductions, and thoughtful product and technology investments. As always, the team is meeting challenges head-on and working diligently to deliver solutions for our customers. I would like to thank our employees and dealers for their unwavering support of the world’s farmers and builders.” — Scott W. Wine, Chief Executive Officer  

Net sales of Industrial Activities were $4.13 billion, a decrease of 14% when compared to the corresponding period from the previous year. This decline is mainly due to lower industry demand and dealer inventory management. Price realization continued to be favorable for Agriculture and essentially flat for Construction.
