Latin America organic sales fell 31% in the quarter, outweighing growth in all other regions.

Rhea-AI Summary

Corteva (NYSE: CTVA) reported third-quarter net sales of $1.591 billion, down from a year earlier, and updated its full-year outlook. Sales fell 9%, with volume down 2% and pricing down 7%. The pro forma GAAP continuing-operations loss was $54 million, versus income of $60 million; EPS was negative $0.08. Adjusted pro forma operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP earnings measure, fell 17% to $222 million.

Regional organic sales, excluding currency and portfolio effects, rose 7% in North America, 14% in EMEA and 5% in Asia Pacific, but fell 31% in Latin America.

Citing weaker-than-expected Brazil conditions, Corteva now expects 2026 adjusted pro forma operating EBITDA of $1.1 billion–$1.125 billion and operating EPS on the same basis of $0.76–$0.80. The board authorized its first common dividend after the spin.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Key Terms

acetochlor, ebitda, non-gaap, basis points

4 terms

acetochlor technical

"Pricing pressure was concentrated in North America and Latin America, reflecting an anticipated acetochlor headwind"

Acetochlor is a synthetic chloroacetanilide herbicide used in agriculture to control weeds by preventing normal growth of young plant tissues. It is typically applied to soil or seedbeds before or shortly after weed emergence; at a biochemical level it disrupts the synthesis or elongation of very-long-chain fatty acids in plants, which interferes with root and shoot development and causes treated seedlings to die or stunt. Use, labeling, and environmental controls for acetochlor are set by regulatory authorities because of its persistence, potential to move in water or soil, and toxicology considerations.

ebitda financial

"Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA1 and Operating EPS1 were $943 million"

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.

View in glossary

non-gaap financial

"Organic Sales, Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EPS, and Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA are non-GAAP measures."

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

View in glossary

basis points financial

"Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA margin expanded 30 basis points to 17.6%."

Basis points are a way to measure small changes in interest rates or percentages, where one basis point equals 0.01%. For example, if a loan's interest rate increases by 50 basis points, it's gone up by 0.50%. They help people understand tiny differences in rates that can add up over time, making financial comparisons clearer.

______________________________________________________________________________________

"We executed well against the things we can control. New products performed strongly, productivity delivered, and we generated broad-based organic growth outside Latin America. The pressure remains concentrated. Acetochlor pricing in the U.S. was consistent with our expectations, but Brazil was materially weaker than anticipated. While those conditions are reflected in our updated outlook, our strategy has not changed. Innovation, productivity and disciplined execution remain the foundation for sustainable long-term growth."

Summary of Third Quarter 2026
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, net sales decreased 9% versus the same period last year. Organic¹ sales decreased 9%.

Volume declined 2% year over year, as broad-based growth across most regions was more than offset by challenging market dynamics in Brazil. Pricing declined 7%, driven by competitive pressure on molecules late in their lifecycle in Brazil and U.S. acetochlor.

North America² reported 7% organic¹ sales growth, with volume up 19% as new product growth and early demand more than offset pricing headwinds in U.S. acetochlor.

EMEA² reported 14% organic¹ sales growth, driven by strong demand for new and differentiated products while holding price flat.

Latin America organic¹ sales declined 31%, reflecting challenging market dynamics in Brazil. Volumes decreased 24% due to elevated channel inventory and delayed purchasing given farmer liquidity constraints and high interest rates. Price declined 7% amid competitive pressure on mature molecules.

Asia Pacific reported 5% organic¹ sales growth, led by strong demand for new products, which supported 7% volume growth. Price declined 2% due to a competitive market environment.

Pro Forma GAAP income (loss) from continuing operations after income taxes was $(54) million in third quarter of 2026 compared to $60 million in third quarter of 2025, a margin decline of 680 basis points. Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA¹ for the third quarter of 2026 was $222 million, down 17% compared to prior year, translating into 140 basis points of Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA¹ margin erosion.

2026 Guidance
Agricultural fundamentals continue to be supported by the need for growers to improve productivity and protect yield, driving demand for differentiated technologies. However, Crop Protection market conditions have become more challenging, particularly in Brazil, where farmer liquidity constraints, elevated financing costs, just-in-time purchasing and increased pricing pressure have resulted in a significantly softer market than previously anticipated.

Demand for the Company's differentiated new products remains strong, and regional performance outside Latin America has been resilient.

Reflecting these market dynamics, primarily the deterioration in Brazil, the Company updated its full-year 2026 guidance³. Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA¹ is now expected to be between $1.1 billion and $1.125 billion, and Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EPS¹ is expected to be between $0.76 and $0.80 per share.

The Company remains focused on the priorities within its control, including differentiated innovation, productivity and disciplined execution.

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), adjusted pro forma operating EBITDA, adjusted pro forma operating earnings (loss) per share, and adjusted pro forma 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-4 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-8 of the Financial Statement Schedules. 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 2028. The Company expects to record approximately $130 million to $140 million net pre-tax restructuring charges during 2026 for these activities.

Organic sales is defined as price and volume and excludes currency and portfolio and other impacts, including significant items.

Pro forma operating EBITDA is defined as pro forma earnings (loss) (i.e., pro forma 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, as well as rental income recorded under the carve-out basis of accounting. Tax indemnification adjustments relate to changes in indemnification balances, as a result of the application of the terms of the Tax Matters Agreements, between Corteva and Dow and/or DuPont, and between Corteva and Vylor, that are recorded by the Company as pre-tax income or expense. 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. Pro forma operating EBITDA margin is defined as pro forma operating EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Adjusted pro forma operating EBITDA represents pro forma operating EBITDA, further adjusted to reflect management's estimates of certain incremental cost savings associated with operating Corteva as an independent public company that are not reflected in pro forma operating EBITDA. Adjusted pro forma operating EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted pro forma operating EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Management believes this measure provides useful supplemental information regarding the expected cost structure of Corteva as an independent public company.  The management adjustments are based on estimates and assumptions and actual costs and savings may differ materially from those reflected in the adjustments.

Pro forma operating earnings (loss) per share is defined as pro forma income (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 Corteva 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. Adjusted pro forma operating earnings (loss) per share is defined as pro forma earnings (loss) per share plus the after-tax impact of management adjustments.

Pro forma adjusted 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, plus the effect of management adjustments.
