On September 29, 2009, Deere & Co. announced that a noncash charge of approximately $300 million after-tax for impairment of the value of goodwill will be recorded in the fourth quarter ending October 31, 2009 related to reduction of the value of the John Deere Landscapes reporting unit.
Deere & Co. announced that 367 manufacturing employees of the John Deere Harvester Works in East Moline, Illinois will be placed on indefinite layoff later this month due to reduced market demand for the factory's products. The company said the layoffs affect production workers with the least seniority. Employees were informed of the layoff, which is effective on September 21, 2009.
