  • 2020 adjusted earnings per share guidance of $3.70 to $3.90 reflecting headwinds from prior year discrete benefits and nylon market pressures

DuPont (NYSE: DD) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2019.

"Our full year results demonstrate our ability to offset challenging global macro conditions by focusing on the levers within our control," said Marc Doyle, DuPont Chief Executive Officer. "We mitigated these headwinds through pricing and cost actions while continuing to strengthen our position in key growth areas such as water and 5G through continued innovation and investment."

"As we head into 2020, this strong internal discipline continues to be paramount as we foresee further nylon pricing declines and unfavorable nylon mix partially offsetting organic revenue growth in our other core segments," Doyle stated. "We continue to strategically reduce spending and are taking actions to consolidate our asset footprint. These steps will ensure that our costs are right-sized for the future organization and better position us for growth."

Full Year 2019 Results

Full year net sales totaled $21.5 billion, down 5 percent versus 2018. On an organic basis, net sales were down 2 percent with 2 percent higher price being more than offset by 4 percent lower volume primarily from the macro conditions in automotive and electronic end markets.

Pro forma GAAP Income (Loss) from continuing operations totaled $(522) million, versus $237 million in the year-ago period. Pro forma operating EBITDA(1) of $5.6 billion was down 4 percent versus the prior year primarily driven by weakness in automotive and electronic markets, reduced equity affiliate income and currency headwinds partially offset by strong pricing discipline and continued cost savings.  Full year 2019 pro forma operating EBITDA margins were up 10 bps from the prior year more than offsetting a 50 bps headwind from lower equity affiliate income.

Pro forma GAAP EPS from continuing operations totaled $(0.74) versus $0.23 in the year-ago period; the decline is mostly attributable to higher significant items(2), a higher tax rate, currency headwinds and lower segment results partially offset by lower costs historically allocated to Dow and Corteva.  Pro forma adjusted EPS(1) decreased 7 percent to $3.80, compared with pro forma adjusted EPS in the year-ago period of $4.07 primarily driven by a higher tax rate, currency headwinds and lower segment results.

Fourth Quarter 2019 Results

Net sales for the quarter totaled $5.2 billion, down 5 percent versus the same quarter last year. On an organic basis, net sales were down 2 percent with 1 percent higher price being more than offset by 3 percent lower volume. Organic sales were flat to up in all core segments except Transportation & Industrial which was impacted by continued weak automotive markets and declining nylon price.

GAAP Income from continuing operations totaled $191 million, versus pro forma GAAP Income from continuing operations of $310 million in the year-ago period. Operating EBITDA(1) was $1.4 billion, down 14 percent versus pro forma operating EBITDA in the prior year driven by lower nylon pricing and reduced equity affiliate income from customer settlements in the Hemlock Semiconductor joint venture.  These headwinds were partially offset by higher pricing in segments outside of T&I and cost savings.

GAAP EPS from continuing operations totaled $0.24 versus pro forma GAAP EPS from continuing operations in the year-ago period of $0.39; the decline is mostly attributable to lower segment results and a higher tax rate partially offset by lower significant items(2) and the absence of costs historically allocated to Dow and Corteva. Adjusted EPS(1) decreased 34 percent to $0.95, compared with pro forma adjusted EPS in the year-ago period of $1.43 primarily driven by lower segment results and a higher tax rate.

"The planned merger of our N&B business with IFF advances the strategic direction of the company and will generate value for our shareholders," said Ed Breen, Executive Chairman of DuPont. "Together we are creating a global leader in high-value ingredients and solutions for Food & Beverage, Home & Personal Care and Health & Wellness markets while creating tremendous opportunities for our employees and customers.  In addition, we continue to bolster our portfolio through the recently announced strategic acquisitions in the high growth water space."

"I remain focused on this aspect of DuPont's value creation opportunity, working closely with the Board to assess opportunities to unlock shareholder value through portfolio refinement and differentiated investment," Breen stated.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2019 Segment Highlights

Electronics & Imaging

Electronics & Imaging reported fourth quarter net sales of $937 million, up 3 percent from the year-ago period. Organic sales were up 3 percent driven by 2 percent growth in volume and a 1 percent gain in price.

Strong volume gains in Interconnect Solutions driven by higher material content in the new high-speed, high-frequency smartphones were offset by softer volumes in Semiconductor Technologies where gains in logic were more than offset by ongoing weakness in memory markets. However, Semiconductor Technologies volumes were up 1 percent sequentially.

Net sales for the segment were up 7 percent versus prior year in Asia Pacific including double-digit growth in China.

Fourth quarter operating EBITDA for the segment was $293 million, a decrease of 9 percent from pro forma operating EBITDA of $321 million in the year-ago period, with volume gains in Interconnect Solutions more than offset by unfavorable mix.

For the year, Electronics & Imaging net sales of $3.6 billion and pro forma operating EBITDA of $1.1 billion were down 2 percent and 5 percent, respectively, from the year-ago period. The pro forma operating EBITDA decline was primarily the result of softer volumes in Semiconductor Technologies resulting in an unfavorable mix partially offset by higher gains associated with planned asset sales versus the prior year.

Nutrition & Biosciences
Nutrition & Biosciences reported fourth quarter net sales of $1.5 billion, down 2 percent from the year-ago period. Organic sales were flat with a 1 percent pricing improvement offset by a 1 percent decline in volume.

Within Food & Beverage, mid-single digit growth in protein concentrates on growing demand in plant-based meats was more than offset by volume declines due to supply chain disruptions in sweeteners and inventory destocking in proteins for select channels. Volume gains in Health & Biosciences were led by strength in food enzymes and animal nutrition partially offset by continued market-driven softness in biorefineries and probiotics in North America.

Fourth quarter operating EBITDA for the segment was $323 million, a decrease of 2 percent from pro forma operating EBITDA of $330 million in the year-ago period. Productivity and pricing gains were more than offset by unfavorable mix and lower volume. The June 2019 divestiture of the Natural Colors business reduced operating EBITDA by about 1 percent.

For the year, Nutrition & Biosciences net sales of $6.1 billion and pro forma operating EBITDA of $1.4 billion were down 2 percent and 1 percent, respectively, from the year-ago period.  Organic sales were up 1 percent. The pro forma operating EBITDA decline was primarily the result of currency and unfavorable mix partially offset by productivity actions, cost savings and pricing gains.

Transportation & Industrial
Transportation & Industrial reported fourth quarter net sales of $1.2 billion, down 9 percent from the year-ago period. Organic sales were down 8 percent with volume down 6 percent and price lower by 2 percent.

Volumes declined primarily due to continued weakness in automotive and electronics markets with Europe and North America volumes down 8 percent and 6 percent, respectively.

Fourth quarter operating EBITDA for the segment was $277 million, a decrease of 19 percent from pro forma operating EBITDA of $344 million in the year-ago period with cost reductions and favorable raw material costs being more than offset by lower volumes and nylon price headwinds.

For the year, Transportation & Industrial net sales of $5.0 billion and pro forma operating EBITDA of $1.3 billion were down 9 percent and 14 percent, respectively, from the year-ago period. The decline in pro forma operating EBITDA was primarily from the impact of reduced volumes in automotive end markets and currency headwinds partially offset by pricing gains, productivity actions and cost savings.

Safety & Construction
Safety & Construction reported fourth quarter net sales of $1.3 billion, down 3 percent from the year-ago period. Organic sales were up 1 percent with a 3 percent price improvement offset by a 2 percent decline in volume. The December 2018 divestiture of the European STYROFOAM™ business reduced sales by 3 percent.

Local price increased across all businesses and in all regions, led by the Safety and Water Solutions businesses.

Double-digit volume gains in Water Solutions, led by strong demand for ion exchange and reverse osmosis membranes in industrial markets, was more than offset by volume declines in Safety Solutions and continued softness in Shelter Solutions.  Safety Solutions demand remained steady across most product lines however planned maintenance downtime and raw material disruptions in the supply chain limited production volumes.

Fourth quarter operating EBITDA for the segment totaled $311 million, flat with prior year with pricing gains and productivity actions being offset by higher year-over-year manufacturing costs, primarily from costs associated with planned maintenance, and lower volumes.

For the year, Safety & Construction net sales of $5.2 billion and pro forma operating EBITDA of $1.4 billion were down 2 percent and up 11 percent, respectively, from the year-ago period. Organic sales were up 3 percent versus prior year.  Pro forma operating EBITDA margins were up over 300 basis points driven by pricing gains across the portfolio, productivity actions and cost savings partially offset by currency and higher planned maintenance costs.

Non-Core
Non-Core reported fourth quarter net sales of $404 million, down 19 percent from the year-ago period. Organic sales were down 9 percent driven by 15 percent volume declines offset by 6 percent pricing gains. The September 2019 divestiture of the DuPont Sustainable Solutions business reduced sales by 10 percent.

Growth in photovoltaic and advanced materials was more than offset by volume declines due to weak demand for trichlorosilane and for SORONA® in carpet and apparel applications.

Fourth quarter operating EBITDA for the segment was $210 million, a decrease of 41 percent from pro forma operating EBITDA of $358 million in the year-ago period with the benefits from pricing actions more than offset by lower Hemlock Semiconductor equity earnings due to reduced customer settlements and lower segment volumes.

For the year, Non-Core net sales of $1.7 billion and pro forma operating EBITDA of $491 million were down 15 percent and 27 percent, respectively, from the year-ago period. The decline in pro forma operating EBITDA was primarily the result of lower Hemlock Semiconductor equity earnings and lower segment volumes partially offset by a gain on the sale of DuPont Sustainable Solutions.

First Quarter and Full Year 2020 Outlook

"For this year, we expect full year sales between $21.5 and $22.0 billion resulting in organic sales which are slightly up versus prior year," said Jeanmarie Desmond, Chief Financial Officer of DuPont.  "We expect full year adjusted EPS in the range of $3.70 - $3.90, up 3 percent to down 3 percent versus 2019 driven by lower discrete items and further headwinds in nylon pricing and mix more than offsetting strong organic growth across our other core segments and continued productivity and cost actions."

"With the nylon headwinds being most impactful at the start of the year and temporary manufacturing challenges in S&C, we are expecting first quarter net sales to be down mid-single digits with adjusted EPS in the range of $0.70 to $0.74, including a headwind from discrete items," Desmond stated. "Our focus on a disciplined operating model will ensure we remain diligent on cost and cash management as we progress through the year."

Throughout this filing, except as otherwise noted by the context, the terms "DuPont" or "the Company" used herein mean DuPont de Nemours, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. On June 1, 2019, DowDuPont Inc. ("DowDuPont") changed its registered name to DuPont de Nemours Inc. ("DuPont") (for certain events prior to June 1, 2019, the Company may be referred to as DowDuPont). Beginning on June 3, 2019, the Company's common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "DD".

Overview

Effective August 31, 2017, pursuant to the merger of equals transaction contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017, The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Historical Dow") and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Historical EID") each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont and as a result, Historical Dow and Historical EID became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the "Merger"). Prior to the Merger, DowDuPont did not conduct any business activities other than those required for its formation and matters contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Historical Dow was determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Merger and as a result, Historical EID's assets and liabilities were reflected at fair value as of the close of the Merger.

Effective as of 5:00 p.m. on April 1, 2019, DowDuPont completed the separation of its materials science business into a separate and independent public company by way of a distribution of Dow Inc. ("Dow") through a pro rata dividend in-kind of all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Dow's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Dow Common Stock"), to holders of DowDuPont's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "DowDuPont Common Stock"), as of the close of business on March 21, 2019 (the "Dow Distribution"). Dow's historical financial results for periods prior to April 1, 2019 are reflected in DuPont's consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations.

Effective as of 12:01 a.m. on June 1, 2019, DuPont completed the separation of its agriculture business into a separate and independent public company by way of a distribution of Corteva Inc. ("Corteva") through a pro rata dividend in-kind of all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Corteva's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Corteva Common Stock"), to holders of DuPont de Nemours, Inc.'s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, as of the close of business on May 24, 2019 (the "Corteva Distribution" and, together with the Dow Distribution, the "Distributions"). Corteva's historical financial results for periods prior to June 1, 2019 are reflected in DuPont's consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations.

The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statements of Operations (discussed in the following section) included herein include costs previously allocated to the materials science and agriculture businesses that did not meet the definition of expenses related to discontinued operations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Codification 205, "Presentation of Financial Statements" ("ASC 205") and thus are reflected in the Company's results of continuing operations. A significant portion of these costs relate to Historical Dow and consist of leveraged services provided through service centers, as well as other corporate overhead costs related to information technology, finance, manufacturing, research & development, sales & marketing, supply chain, human resources, sourcing & logistics, legal and communications, public affairs & government affairs functions. These costs are no longer incurred by the Company following the Distributions.

Following the Corteva Distribution, DuPont holds the specialty products business. In addition, immediately following the Corteva Distribution, on June 1, 2019, DuPont completed a 1-for-3 reverse stock split (the "Reverse Stock Split") and as a result, DuPont common stockholders now hold one share of common stock of DuPont for every three shares held prior to the Reverse Stock Split. The historical financial information presented herein has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this change.

DuPontTM and all products, unless otherwise noted, denoted with TM, SM or ® are trademarks, service marks or registered trademarks of affiliates of DuPont de Nemours, Inc.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

In order to provide the most meaningful comparison of results of operations and results by segment, supplemental unaudited pro forma financial information has been included in the following financial schedules. The unaudited pro forma financial information (the "pro forma financial statements") is derived from DuPont's Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, adjusted to give effect to certain events directly attributable to the Distributions and Financings (as defined below). In contemplation of the Distributions and to achieve the respective credit profiles of each of DuPont, Dow, and Corteva, in the fourth quarter of 2018, DowDuPont consummated a public underwritten offer of eight series of senior unsecured notes (the "2018 Senior Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of $12.7 billion and entered into a term loan agreement consisting of two term loan facilities (the "Term Loan Facilities") in the aggregate principal amount of $3.0 billion. In May 2019, the funds from the Term Loan Facilities were drawn, along with the issuance of approximately $1.4 billion in commercial paper (the "Funding CP Issuance" together with the 2018 Senior Notes and Term Loan Facilities, the "Financings"). The net proceeds from the Financings together with cash from operations were used to fund cash contributions to Dow and Corteva, and DowDuPont's $3.0 billion share repurchase program which was completed in the first quarter of 2019 (the "Share Repurchase Program").

The pro forma financial statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Distributions and the Financings (collectively the "Transactions"), (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the Consolidated Statements of Operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the results. The unaudited pro forma Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for three months ended December 31, 2018 give effect to the pro forma events as if they had been consummated on January 1, 2018. There were no pro forma adjustments for the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Restructuring or integration activities or other costs following the Distributions that may be incurred to achieve cost or growth synergies of DuPont are not reflected. The pro forma financial statements provide shareholders with summary financial information and historical data that is on a basis consistent with how DuPont reports current financial information.

The pro forma financial statements are presented for informational purposes only, and do not purport to represent what DuPont's results of operations or financial position would have been had the Transactions occurred on the dates indicated, nor do they purport to project the results of operations or financial position for any future period or as of any future date.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release includes information that does not conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and are considered non-GAAP measures. Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the Company, including allocating resources. DuPont's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide additional information related to the ongoing performance of DuPont to offer a more meaningful comparison related to future results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement disclosures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be viewed as an alternative to U.S. GAAP. 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 13 and on the Investors section of the Company's website. Non-GAAP measures included in this release are defined below. The Company has not provided forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measures or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain future events. These events include, among others, the impact of portfolio changes, including asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; contingent liabilities related to litigation, environmental and indemnifications matters; impairments and discrete tax items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP results for the guidance period.

Pro forma adjusted earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted ("Pro forma adjusted EPS"), is defined as pro forma earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted, excluding the after-tax impact of significant items, after-tax impact of amortization expense associated with intangibles acquired as part of the Merger, after-tax impact of non-operating pension / other post employment benefits ("OPEB") benefits / charges and the after-tax impact of costs historically allocated to the materials science and agriculture businesses that did not meet the criteria to be recorded as discontinued operations. Adjusted earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted ("Adjusted EPS"), is defined as earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted, excluding the after-tax impact of significant items, after-tax impact of amortization expense associated with intangibles acquired as part of the Merger and the after-tax impact of non-operating pension / other post employment benefits ("OPEB") benefits / charges. Although amortization of Historical EID intangibles acquired as part of the Merger 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. Management estimates amortization expense in 2020 associated with intangibles acquired as part of the Merger to be approximately $1.9 billion on a pre-tax basis, or approximately $2.00 per share.

Pro forma operating EBITDA, is defined as earnings (i.e. pro forma income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes) before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating pension / OPEB benefits / charges, and foreign exchange gains / losses, excluding the impact of costs historically allocated to the materials science and agriculture businesses that did not meet the criteria to be recorded as discontinued operations and adjusted to exclude significant items. Operating EBITDA, is defined as earnings (i.e. income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes) before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating pension / OPEB benefits / charges, and foreign exchange gains / losses, adjusted to exclude significant items.

Significant items are items that arise outside the ordinary course of the Company's business that management believes may cause misinterpretation of underlying business performance, both historical and future, based on a combination of some or all of the item's size, unusual nature and infrequent occurrence. Management classifies as significant items certain costs and expenses associated with integration and separation activities related to transformational acquisitions and divestitures as they are considered unrelated to ongoing business performance. The Company expects costs associated with the intended separation of the Nutrition & Biosciences business to be significant; however, the Company is unable to estimate such costs because there are many factors that could affect the amount and timing of these expenses.

Organic Sales is defined as net sales excluding the impacts of currency and portfolio.

Adjusted EPS, pro forma adjusted EPS, operating EBITDA and pro forma operating EBITDA are non-GAAP measures.  See page 7 for further discussion.

Certain pro forma adjustments were made to illustrate the estimated effects of the Transactions, assuming that the Transactions had occurred on January 1, 2018. The pro forma adjustments are consistent with those identified and disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 7, 2019. The adjustments include the impact to "Cost of sales" of different pricing than historical intercompany and intracompany practices related to various supply agreements entered into in connection with the Dow Distribution, adjustments to "Integration and separation costs" to eliminate one time transaction costs directly attributable to the Distributions, and adjustments to "Interest expense" to reflect the impact of the Financings.
