Corteva Reports Third-Quarter 2026 Results; Updates FY 2026 Outlook

  • Corteva reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $1.59 billion, a 9% decrease year-over-year, with organic sales also down 9% due to pricing pressure in North America and Latin America.
  • Full-year 2026 YTD net sales declined 1% to $5.36 billion, while organic sales fell 4% as price drops of 4% offset volume growth in most regions.
  • The company updated its full-year 2026 guidance to reflect weaker market conditions in Brazil, now expecting Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA between $1.1 billion and $1.125 billion.
  • Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EPS for 2026 is expected to range from $0.76 to $0.80 per share, down from previous projections due to Brazil's soft market.
  • Third-quarter GAAP loss from continuing operations was $54 million, compared to a $60 million profit in the prior year, while Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA dropped 17% to $222 million.
  • Latin America organic sales plunged 31% driven by a 24% volume decline caused by farmer liquidity constraints, high interest rates, and elevated channel inventory.
  • North America achieved 7% organic sales growth with a 19% volume increase, though U.S. acetochlor pricing faced headwinds.
  • EMEA reported 14% organic sales growth driven by strong demand for new products, while price remained flat.
  • Asia Pacific delivered 5% organic sales growth with 7% volume expansion, supported by new product demand despite a 2% price decline.
  • CEO Luke Kissam noted that while innovation and productivity performed well outside Latin America, pricing pressure on mature molecules and acetochlor significantly impacted results.
  • The Board of Directors authorized the first common dividend post-spin, and the company expects to record $130 million to $140 million in net pre-tax restructuring charges during 2026.
