9. Bunge Global SA (NYSE:BG)

Market Cap: $10.63 billion

Bunge Global SA (NYSE:BG) is a global agribusiness and food company. It operates through four segments: Agribusiness, Milling, Refined and Specialty Oils, and Sugar and Bioenergy. The company specializes in oilseed processing and is a leading producer of specialty plant-based oils and fats. The agribusiness segment has operations and assets located in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.

In January this year, Bunge Global SA (NYSE:BG) received approval from the Government of Canada for its acquisition of Viterra Inc. The deal was set to be completed in mid-2024 but was pushed back due to delays in regulatory approvals. The Canadian approval has brought the company near completion of the regulatory processes, which are now expected to close in early 2025. The acquisition is expected to create a $25 billion powerhouse to rival some of the world’s leading agricultural businesses.

However, the approval comes with some conditions. Bunge Global SA (NYSE:BG) will have to divest six grain elevators in Western Canada and invest at least C$520 million in the country over the next five years. There will also be controls placed on the company’s minority ownership stake in G3.

On February 5, Bunge Global SA (NYSE:BG) announced financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The company fell short of profit expectations for the year, as weak oilseed processing margins slashed Q4 earnings for its agribusiness segment. Bunge has warned that earnings in 2025 could drop to a six-year low amid ongoing trade tensions and a drag in biofuel policy uncertainty.

Despite ongoing challenges with trade disruptions and uncertainty around biofuels, the overall prospects for the company look encouraging and have been further strengthened with Canada’s approval to acquire Viterra. Wall Street analysts are bullish on the stock, with a consensus Buy rating, and an average share price upside potential of 59%, making Bunge Global SA (NYSE:BG) one of the best agriculture stocks to buy.
