AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Archer Daniels Midland (ADM)

ADM to restate segment data in 2023 10-K and 2024 10-Qs over intersegment sales errors

Negative Impact 5 of 5 legal/regulatory Written later

ADM said on November 4, 2024 that its fiscal 2023 Form 10-K and first- and second-quarter 2024 Form 10-Qs can no longer be relied upon because of errors in segment reporting, and it will amend and restate them. The company found additional misclassified intersegment sales during testing of new controls in the third quarter of 2024, on top of earlier corrections, and it has a material weakness in internal controls over intersegment sales. ADM expects the restatements to have no material impact on its earnings, balance sheet, cash flow or shareholders' equity, but the filing shows the company's segment reporting and internal controls failed to meet required standards.

Key points

  • Restatements cover fiscal years 2021, 2022 and 2023 in the FY2023 10-K and each quarterly and year-to-date period in the Q1 and Q2 2024 10-Qs
  • Newly identified errors affect Ag Services and Oilseeds, Carbohydrate Solutions and Nutrition segments
  • ADM expects no material impact on its consolidated statements of earnings, balance sheets, cash flows or shareholders' equity
  • Management and the Audit Committee Chair discussed the matters with the auditor, Ernst & Young LLP
