Bunge Global SA (NYSE: BG) will host its 2026 Investor Day, “Origins to Opportunities,” today in New York at 9 a.m. EDT and via a concurrent webcast. The event features presentations from senior leadership on the Company’s strategic priorities, including key commercial and value chain initiatives, the continued integration of Viterra, portfolio optimization and capital allocation goals. The Company has updated its EPS mid-cycle baseline to approximately $13 and will discuss the drivers of the update during the event, as well as provide a growth framework with an expected increase to its EPS baseline to at least $15 by the end of 2030.
Greg Heckman, Bunge’s Chief Executive Officer said, “This is an exciting moment in Bunge’s history, powered by the momentum we have built over the last several years and the improved strength of our platform since closing the acquisition of Viterra. I am incredibly proud of our 34,000 team members worldwide, who are leveraging our global scale and infrastructure to execute our strategy with Bunge’s signature discipline and agility. We are also advancing a compelling pipeline of key projects to provide solutions that meet our customers’ needs, while fulfilling our purpose of connecting farmers with consumers to deliver essential food, feed and fuel to the world.”
“Looking ahead, we are confident in our path to become the premier agribusiness solutions company built for the 21st century, supported by a continued focus on delivering sustainable value for all of our shareholders and stakeholders.”
Capital Allocation Framework and Share Repurchase Plan
As part of Bunge’s disciplined and balanced approach to capital allocation and commitment to shareholder returns, Bunge has announced a target to returning a minimum of 50% of its discretionary cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases across the cycle. In connection with this target, Bunge’s Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $3 billion of Bunge's common shares (the “Repurchase Plan”).
The repurchases could include purchases pursuant to a written trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which allows companies to repurchase shares of stock at times when they might otherwise be prevented from doing so by securities laws or under self-imposed trading blackout periods. The timing and number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, share price and market conditions, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
