Financial results presented under U.S. GAAP " Our CNH Industrial team performed admirably in Q3 , displaying exceptional agility and determination in overcoming the increasingly challenging supply chain situation to deliver for our customers and dealers . Their feats were doubly impressive as , over the same period , we were devoting considerable resources towards the closing of the Raven Industries acquisition and developing a comprehensive , value enhancing integration plan , while also finalizing our preparations to complete the spin . For the latter , we now have both On- and Off - Highway leadership organizations completed and in place and remain on track for an early Q1 2022 separation . Our solid Q3 results are a credit to all our employees and dealers , who continue to work tirelessly to mitigate significant external pressures . Further testament both to the team's inspired execution and to the strength of our markets , particularly Agriculture , is our year - to - date adjusted EPS of $ 1.10 , which exceeds any full year EPS in the Company's history . Despite acute supplier issues that will constrain our Q4 results , considering the ongoing health of our markets , the untapped potential of our team we are unlocking through our reorganization , and the onset of our various value creation initiatives which are only beginning to have an impact , we are confident in a bright future .
