Bunge Global’s quarterly revenue was up 7.4% compared to the same quarter last year. During the same period in the previous year, the firm earned $2.27 earnings per share.

Here are the key takeaways from Bunge Global’s conference call:

  • Bunge maintained its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of $9.25–$9.75 after reporting third-quarter adjusted EPS of $2.56, up from $2.27 a year earlier. Adjusted EBIT rose to $997 million from $924 million.
  • The Viterra integration is progressing, with 2026 cost synergies expected to exceed $200 million and an anticipated additional $0.50 per share of cost-synergy contribution in 2027, alongside roughly another $0.50 per share from commercial and network synergies.
  • Bunge expects its major greenfield projects to shift from startup costs to earnings contributors in 2027. Morristown, Destrehan and the barge unloader are operating, while the Westzaan refinery is expected to start in the first quarter; together, the projects are expected to improve earnings by about $0.50 per share in 2027.
  • Management said its global footprint and integrated network are helping it navigate geopolitical disruptions, Black Sea supply constraints, weather uncertainty and potential U.S.-China trade changes. However, these factors continue to make fourth-quarter and 2027 results difficult to forecast.
  • Higher commodity prices have increased working-capital needs, with elevated levels expected through year-end and possibly into early 2027; net interest expense guidance was raised to $640–$670 million. Tropical oils and specialty ingredients also remained pressured by trade disruptions and commissioning costs, while 2026 capital spending is expected near the high end of the $1.5–$1.7 billion range.
