Corteva, Inc.

Crop Protection Operations Strategy Restructuring Program

On November 5, 2023, management of the company approved a plan to further optimize its Crop Protection network of manufacturing and external partners (the "Crop Protection Operations Strategy Restructuring Program"). In October 2024, management of the company amended the Crop Protection Operations Strategy Restructuring Program to include updates to its previous estimates and decommissioning and demolition costs associated with the ceasing of operations, primarily at the Pittsburg, California site.

The company expects to record aggregate pre-tax restructuring and asset related charges of $650 million to $700 million, comprised of $85 million to $105 million of severance and related benefit costs, $320 million to $340 million of asset related and impairment charges and $245 million to $255 million of costs related to exiting the company’s production activities and ceasing operations (which includes related contract terminations and decommissioning and demolition costs). Decommissioning and demolition costs will be expensed on an as-incurred basis. Reductions in workforce are subject to local regulatory requirements. Through the second quarter of 2025, the company recorded net pre-tax restructuring and asset related charges of $566 million, comprised of $103 million of severance and related benefit costs, $340 million of asset related and impairment charges, $34 million of decommissioning and demolition costs, and $89 million of costs related to contract terminations.

Cash payments related to these charges are anticipated to be $330 million to $360 million, which primarily relate to the payment of severance and related benefits, decommissioning and demolition costs and contract terminations. Through the second quarter of 2025, the company paid $116 million associated with these charges. The restructuring actions associated with these charges are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2026.

The Crop Protection Operations Strategy Restructuring Program is expected to contribute to the company’s ongoing cost and productivity improvement efforts through achieving an estimated $180 million of savings on a run rate basis by 2027. Future actions by the company or changes in circumstances from current assumptions, including any site disposition gains or losses, may cause actual results and future cash payments to differ.
