Dealer News: Titan Cuts Sales Forecast
Tractor retailer Titan Machinery cut its sales forecast, citing falling crop prices and farm incomes.
Titan’s forecast for 2017 anticipates same-store sales in the U.S. ag market falling 17 to 22 percent from 2016. Earlier expectations called for a 13 to 18 percent drop. International sales are forecast to drop by 7 to 12 percent; the previous forecast was for sales to remain flat.
David Meyer, Titan’s chairman and chief executive, was upbeat on profit prospects because of the retailer’s ongoing inventory reduction.
