______________________________________________________________________________________

"We delivered a strong third quarter across the company, reinforcing our conviction that our two businesses will continue to thrive as independent public companies.  In Crop Protection, demand for differentiated technology and productivity gains support margin expansion, while Seed continues to benefit from its strength in advanced genetics, growth in out-licensing and ongoing cost discipline.

Our planned separation in the second half of 2026 is driven by our belief that it will create long-term value, as "New Corteva" and "SpinCo" strengthen their positions as market leaders with sharper focus, tailored capital allocation strategies and increased flexibility.  Until then, we will continue to execute on our growth platforms and financial framework as one company with a unifying vision: to drive value for farmers, shareholders, employees and the communities we all call home."

Chuck Magro
Chief Executive Officer

Company Updates
On October 1, 2025, the Company announced its plan to separate into two independent public companies: "New Corteva," focused on differentiated technology solutions in crop protection, including biologicals, and "SpinCo," dedicated to advanced genetics and emerging technologies including gene editing, hybrid wheat, and biofuels.  The transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2026, subject to customary approvals.

Strategic Rationale

• Distinct Market Opportunities: The separation enables tailored innovation, operational design, and go-to-market strategies for each company.
• Farmer-Centric Flexibility: Both companies will be better positioned to deliver more choices and critically needed technologies to farmers, maximizing and protecting yields in a dynamic global market.
• Capital Allocation Optimization: Each business will have the financial flexibility and targeted investment-grade credit ratings to pursue long-term growth, both organically and through acquisitions.

Launching from Strength

• Through the first half of 2025, Corteva returned $7 billion in cash to shareholders since 2019.
• Corteva has invested $8.9 billion⁴ in cumulative research and development since 2019.
• Corteva has launched over 2,500 new Seed and Crop Protection products since 2019.

4. Represents cumulative R&D expense from 2019-2025E

Next Steps

• A dedicated separation management team has been established.
• The separation is intended to qualify as a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal tax purposes.
• Leadership and board transition planning is ongoing.

Summary of Third Quarter 2025
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, net sales increased 13% versus the same period last year. Organic¹ sales increased 11%.

Volume was up 12% versus prior year on growth in both Crop Protection and Seed. Crop Protection volume increased 5% over the prior year driven primarily by demand for new products, herbicides, and biologicals.  Seed volume increased 27% versus prior year due primarily to early deliveries in Latin America in advance of the safrinha season.

Price was down 1% versus prior year. Seed price/mix was up in nearly all regions, offset by competitive price dynamics in Latin America for both Seed and Crop Protection.

GAAP income from continuing operations after income taxes was a loss of $308 million in third quarter of 2025 compared to a loss of $519 million in third quarter of 2024. Operating EBITDA¹ for the third quarter of 2025 was income of $49 million, up 149% compared to prior year.

Seed Summary
Seed net sales were $917 million in the third quarter of 2025, up from $691 million in the third quarter of 2024. The sales increase reflects a 27% increase in volume, a 4% increase in price/mix, and a 2% favorable currency impact.

Volume growth in the quarter reflects early safrinha deliveries in Brazil, recovery of corn acres in Argentina and increased corn sales in EMEA, partially offset by lower oilseed area in APAC. The increase in price is due primarily to increased out-licensing income and continued demand for top technology. 

Segment operating EBITDA was a loss of $193 million in the third quarter of 2025, an improvement of 40% from the third quarter of 2024. Increased corn volumes, royalty income, and cost benefits from productivity and deflation drove the improvement versus prior year, partially offset by higher compensation expense, commissions, and research expense.

Seed net sales were $8.16 billion in the first nine months of 2025, up 5% from the same period of 2024. The sales increase reflects a 3% increase in price/mix and a 4% increase in volume, partially offset by a 2% unfavorable currency impact.

Price/Mix gains in most regions, led by North America, demonstrate demand for top technology and the strength of the portfolio, coupled with increased out-licensing income. Volume growth was driven primarily by increased corn area and share gains in North America, an early start to safrinha deliveries in Brazil, and recovery of corn acres in Argentina.  This was partially offset by lower soybean area in North America. Unfavorable currency impacts were led by the Brazilian Real and the Canadian dollar.

Segment operating EBITDA was $2.51 billion for the first nine months of 2025, up 18% from the same period of 2024. Commercial execution and market share gains in North America, product mix, reduction of net royalty expense, and ongoing cost and productivity actions more than offset increased compensation, commissions, research expense and the unfavorable impact of currency. Segment operating EBITDA margin improved by approximately 340 basis points versus the prior-year period.

Crop Protection Summary
Crop Protection net sales were approximately $1.70 billion in the third quarter of 2025 compared to approximately $1.64 billion in the third quarter of 2024. The sales increase over the prior period reflects a 5% increase in volume and a 1% favorable benefit from currency, partially offset by a 2% price decline.

The increase in volume was primarily driven by demand for new products, herbicides, and biologicals. The price decline was primarily due to the competitive pricing environment in Latin America, partially offset by North America price increases.  Unfavorable currency impacts were led by the Brazilian Real.

Segment operating EBITDA was $279 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 13% from the third quarter of 2024. Productivity savings and volume growth more than offset the unfavorable impact of currency and price pressure. Segment operating EBITDA margin improved by approximately 135 basis points versus the prior-year period.

Crop Protection net sales were approximately $5.33 billion for the first nine months of 2025 compared to approximately $5.16 billion in the same period of 2024. The sales increase reflects a 7% increase in volume, partially offset by a 2% decline in price and a 2% unfavorable impact from currency.

The increase in volume was driven by demand for new products, herbicides, fungicides, and biologicals.  The price decline was primarily due to market dynamics in Latin America. Unfavorable currency impacts were led by the Brazilian Real and the Turkish Lira.

Segment operating EBITDA was $990 million for the first nine months of 2025, up 22% from the same period last year. Raw material deflation, productivity savings, and volume growth more than offset the unfavorable impact of currency, price pressure, and higher compensation and bad debt expense in SG&A.  Segment operating EBITDA margin improved by approximately 285 basis points versus the prior-year period.

2025 Guidance and 2026 Preliminary View
The global outlook for agriculture remains mixed with strong demand and production, but pressured commodity prices and farmer margins.  Global corn area was up in 2025, most notably in North America, driven by favorable corn economics relative to soybeans, with expectations for a mid-single digit planted area increase in Latin America.  We continue to expect a large crop production year, but keeping pace with record demand, resulting in decade-low global corn stock levels.

Global crop protection industry volumes have stabilized and rebounded in most regions, while prices are beginning to show signs of stabilization. As it pertains to ongoing tariff negotiations around the world, we are not expecting a material net impact on our full-year 2025 results given policies in place today. 

The Company updated full-year 2025 guidance with net sales expected to be in the range of $17.7 billion to $17.9 billion, growth of ~5% at the mid-point.  Operating EBITDA¹ is expected to be $3.8 billion to $3.9 billion, growth of 14% at the mid-point. Operating EPS¹ is expected to be $3.25 to $3.35 per share, growth of 28% at the mid-point. The Company expects to repurchase approximately $1.0 billion of shares in 2025.

For full-year 2026, the Company's preliminary view of operating EBITDA¹ is $4.1 billion at the mid-point, reflecting growth of ~6%.

The Company is not able to reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, to its most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, as it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty items outside of its control, such as Significant Items, without unreasonable effort.

Regulation G (Non-GAAP Financial Measures)
This earnings release includes information that does not conform to U.S. GAAP and are considered non-GAAP measures. These measures may include organic sales, organic growth (including by segment and region), operating EBITDA, operating earnings (loss) per share, and base income tax rate. Management uses these measures internally for planning and forecasting, including allocating resources and evaluating incentive compensation. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures best reflect the ongoing performance of the Company during the periods presented and provide more relevant and meaningful information to investors as they provide insight with respect to ongoing operating results of the Company and a more useful comparison of year over year results. These non-GAAP measures supplement the Company's U.S. GAAP disclosures and should not be viewed as an alternative to U.S. GAAP measures of performance. Furthermore, such non-GAAP measures may not be consistent with similar measures provided or used by other companies. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP measures to U.S. GAAP are provided in the Selected Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures starting on page A-5 of the Financial Statement Schedules.

Corteva is not able to reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, as it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty items outside of the Company's control, such as significant items, without unreasonable effort. For significant items reported in the periods presented, refer to page A-10 of the Financial Statement Schedules. Beginning January 1, 2020, the Company presents accelerated prepaid royalty amortization expense as a significant item. Accelerated prepaid royalty amortization represents the non-cash charge associated with the recognition of upfront payments made to Monsanto in connection with the Company's non-exclusive license in the United States and Canada for Monsanto's Genuity® Roundup Ready 2 Yield® and Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® herbicide tolerance traits. Due to the ramp-up of Enlist E3^TM, Corteva significantly reduced the volume of products with the Roundup Ready 2 Yield® and Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® herbicide tolerance traits beginning in 2021, with expected minimal use of the trait platform thereafter. In 2023 and 2024, the company committed to restructuring activities to optimize the Crop Protection network of manufacturing and external partners, which are expected to be substantially complete in 2026. The company expects to record approximately $160 million to $175 million net pre-tax restructuring charges during 2025 for these activities.

Organic sales is defined as price and volume and excludes currency and portfolio and other impacts, including significant items. Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) (i.e., income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes) before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating benefits (costs), foreign exchange gains (losses), and net unrealized gain or loss from mark-to-market activity for certain foreign currency derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, excluding the impact of significant items and separation costs. Non-operating benefits (costs) consists of non-operating pension and other post- employment benefit (OPEB) credits (costs), tax indemnification adjustments, and environmental remediation and legal costs associated with legacy businesses and sites. Tax indemnification adjustments relate to changes in indemnification balances, as a result of the application of the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement, between Corteva and Dow and/or DuPont that are recorded by the Company as pre-tax income or expense.

Operating earnings (loss) per share is defined as "earnings (loss) per common share from continuing operations - diluted" excluding the after-tax impact of significant items, the after-tax impact of separation costs, the after-tax impact of non-operating benefits (costs), the after-tax impact of amortization expense associated with intangible assets existing as of the Separation from DowDuPont, and the after-tax impact of net unrealized gain or loss from mark-to-market activity for certain foreign currency derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Although amortization of the Company's intangible assets is excluded from these non-GAAP measures, management believes it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in amortization of additional intangible assets. Net unrealized gain or loss from mark-to-market activity for certain foreign currency derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting represents the non-cash net gain (loss) from changes in fair value of certain undesignated foreign currency derivative contracts. Upon settlement, which is within the same calendar year of execution of the contract, the realized gain (loss) from the changes in fair value of the non-qualified foreign currency derivative contracts will be reported in the relevant non-GAAP financial measures, allowing quarterly results to reflect the economic effects of the foreign currency derivative contracts without the resulting unrealized mark to fair value volatility. Base income tax rate is defined as the effective income tax rate less the effect of exchange gains (losses), significant items, separation costs, amortization of intangibles (existing as of Corteva Separation), mark-to-market (gains) losses on certain foreign currency contracts not designated as hedges, and non-operating (benefits) costs.
