Corteva, Inc.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Information related to the company's liquidity and capital resources can be found in the company’s 2024 Annual Report, Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity & Capital Resources. The discussion below provides the updates to this information for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The increase in debt balances from December 31, 2024 was primarily due to the May 2025 Senior Notes issuance and higher short-term debt, which was used to fund the company's working capital needs, capital spending, dividend payments and share repurchases. See further information in Note 11 - Short-Term Borrowings, Long-Term Debt and Available Credit Facilities, to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The company believes its ability to generate cash from operations and access to capital markets and commercial paper markets will be adequate to meet anticipated cash requirements to fund its operations, including seasonal working capital, capital spending, dividend payments, share repurchases, pension obligations and litigation costs, net of recoveries. Corteva's strong financial position, liquidity and credit ratings will provide access as needed to capital markets and commercial paper markets to fund seasonal working capital needs. The company's liquidity needs can be met through a variety of sources, including cash provided by operating activities, commercial paper, syndicated credit lines, bilateral credit lines, long-term debt markets, bank financing and committed receivable repurchase facilities. Corteva considers the borrowing costs and lending terms when selecting the source to fund its operations and working capital needs.

The company had access to approximately $6.2 billion, $6.3 billion and $6.2 billion at June 30, 2025, December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, in committed and uncommitted unused credit lines, which includes the uncommitted revolving credit lines relating to the foreign currency loans. These facilities provide support to meet the company’s short-term liquidity needs and for general corporate purposes, which may include funding of discretionary and non-discretionary contributions to certain benefit plans, severance payments, repayment and refinancing of debt, working capital, capital expenditures, repurchases and redemptions of securities, acquisitions and Corteva's costs and expenses, including the settlement of litigation and environmental remediation. These facilities are provided to the company by highly rated and well capitalized global financial institutions.

In June 2024, the Revolving Credit Facilities were refinanced for purposes of extending the maturity dates for the five-year and three-year revolving credit facilities to June 2029 and June 2027, respectively, and lowering the facility amount of the five-year revolving credit facility to $2.85 billion and the three-year revolving credit facility to $1.90 billion. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities will have an interest rate equal to Adjusted Term SOFR, which is Term SOFR plus 0.10 percent, plus the applicable margin. The Revolving Credit Facilities may serve as a substitute to the company's commercial paper program, and can be used, from time to time, for general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, the funding of seasonal working capital needs. The Revolving Credit Facilities contain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that are typical for companies with similar credit ratings. Additionally, the Revolving Credit Facilities contain a financial covenant requiring that the ratio of total indebtedness to total capitalization for Corteva and its consolidated subsidiaries not exceed 0.60. At June 30, 2025, the company was in compliance with these covenants.

In February 2025, the company amended and restated its January 2023 (as amended in July 2023, January 2024 and February 2024) 364-day revolving credit agreement (the “364-Day Revolving Credit Facility”) decreasing the facility amount from $1 billion to $750 million and extending the expiration date to February 2026.

In May 2025, the company issued $500 million of 5.125 percent Senior Notes due in May 2032 (the “May 2025 Debt Offering”). The proceeds were used to repay the $500 million senior notes that matured in July 2025.

The company's indenture covenants include customary limitations on liens, sale and leaseback transactions, and mergers and consolidations affecting manufacturing plants, mineral producing properties or research facilities located in the U.S. and the consolidated subsidiaries owning such plants, properties and facilities subject to certain limitations. The outstanding long-term debt also contains customary default provisions.

The company has meaningful seasonal working capital needs based in part on providing financing to its customers. Working capital is funded through multiple methods including cash, commercial paper, the Revolving Credit Facilities, the 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility, and factoring.

The company has factoring agreements with third-party financial institutions to sell its trade receivables under both recourse and non-recourse agreements in exchange for cash proceeds in an effort to reduce its receivables risk. For arrangements that include an element of recourse, the company provides a guarantee of the trade receivables in the event of customer default. Refer to Note 8 - Accounts and Notes Receivable - Net, to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements, for more information.

The company also organizes agreements with third-party financial institutions who directly provide financing for select customers of the company's Seed and Crop Protection products in each region. Terms of the third-party loans are less than a year and programs are renewed on an annual basis. In some cases, the company guarantees a portion of the extension of such credit to such customers. Refer to Note 12 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities, to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements, for more information on the company’s guarantees.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") enacted changes in federal tax law. While the company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of these provisions on its tax position and overall financial results, it expects favorable impacts to its cash tax outflow for the second half of 2025 as a result of OBBBA's reinstatement of expensing of domestic research and development expenditures.

The company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at June 30, 2025, December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 are $2.1 billion, $3.2 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively, of which $1.7 billion, $1.7 billion and $1.6 billion at June 30, 2025, December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, was held by subsidiaries in foreign countries, including United States territories. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are concentrated subject to local restrictions with highly rated and well capitalized global financial institutions. The underlying credit worthiness and exposures to these counterparties are monitored on a regular basis in line with the company’s overall risk management procedures. Upon actual repatriation, such earnings could be subject to withholding taxes, foreign and/or U.S. state income taxes, and taxes resulting from the impact of foreign currency movements. The cash held by foreign subsidiaries is generally used to finance the subsidiaries' operational activities and future foreign investments. At June 30, 2025, management believed that sufficient liquidity is available in the U.S. with global operating cash flows, borrowing capacity from existing committed credit facilities, and access to capital markets and commercial paper markets.

Summary of Cash Flows

Cash provided by (used for) operating activities - continuing operations was $(1,139) million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $(1,999) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The change was driven by higher net income and favorable changes in customer prepayments, derivative settlements and accounts payable due to lower payments to third-party growers resulting from lower commodity costs and planted area, partially offset by unfavorable changes in inventories due to a lower comparable decline in volumes and the sale of lower-cost inventory in the current year.

Cash provided by (used for) operating activities - discontinued operations was $(23) million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $(159) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The cash outflows were primarily related to PFAS activities that are subject to the MOU with Chemours and DuPont associated with environmental remediation activities primarily at Chemours’ Fayetteville Works facility. In addition, the disbursement of the cash held in the Water District Settlement Fund is reflected in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Cash provided by (used for) investing activities was $(198) million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $(305) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The change was primarily driven by a reduction in capital expenditures and lower purchases of investments, partially offset by higher payments to settle net investment hedges.

Cash provided by (used for) financing activities was $187 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $1,518 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

For the full year 2025, the company expects repurchases of approximately $1 billion under the 2024 Share Buyback Plan and the 2022 Share Buyback Plan discussed above.
