Corteva Agriscience Reports Third Quarter 2019 Results - Delivers Earnings Improvement Over Prior Year
-GAAP earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations was a loss of $(0.69) for the third quarter and operating EPS¹ was a loss of $(0.39) - both improved compared to prior year².
-Net sales were $1.9 billion, down 2% from the same quarter last year, with flat organic¹ sales. On a segment net sales basis, timing shifts contributed to a 24% increase in Seed, which was more than offset by a 12% decline in Crop Protection.
-GAAP loss from continuing operations after income taxes was $(527) million; Operating EBITDA¹ was a loss of $(207) million - both improved over prior year on a pro-forma basis².
-Merger cost synergies for the three months ended September 30, 2019 totalled approximately $100 million and remain on track with full-year commitment of $350 million.
-Outlook[5] - Management provided full-year 2019 operating EBITDA¹ guidance at the low end of the prior range, or approximately $1.9 billion, due to further negative impact of currency. Full-year 2019 operating EPS¹ range revised with a $0.04 improvement over the prior guidance mid-point.
WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 31, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Corteva, Inc. (NYSE: CTVA) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and provided guidance for the full year.
For the quarter, net sales declined 2% versus the same period last year, with flat organic sales1. Favorable impacts from shifts of soybean and corn sales into the third quarter, driven by delayed planting in North America3, were more than offset by shifts of Crop Protection sales in Latin America.
Local price declined 3% in the third quarter 2019 versus the same period last year, driven by North America. Higher replant in soybeans and corn, coupled with increased grower incentive discounts, contributed to the decline.
Volumes increased 3% versus the same period last year, as delayed North America planting shifted second quarter sales into the third quarter. This volume growth was partially offset by declines in Latin America, where early demand for Crop Protection products shifted sales into the second quarter and delays in the Brazil soybean season shifted Crop Protection sales into the fourth quarter. Currency represented a headwind of 2%, primarily due to the Brazilian Real and Euro.
GAAP loss from continuing operations after income taxes was $(527) million in the quarter. Operating EBITDA1 was a loss of $(207) million, an improvement of 18% as compared to the same period last year on a pro forma basis2. Improvement in Seed operating EBITDA due to timing shifts in North America and cost savings from synergies was partially offset by lower Crop Protection operating EBITDA, due to timing of sales in Latin America.
The Company reported a loss $(0.69) for GAAP EPS from continuing operations and a loss of $(0.39) for operating EPS1 for the third quarter 2019.

– James C. Collins, Jr., Corteva Chief Executive Officer
Company Updates
- 2020 Launch of Key Seed Products: Corteva recently launched the 2020 sales season in North America3. Expanded launch of new Qrome® products are expected to provide low single digit price uplift in corn, given demonstrated yield advantages. In soybeans, the new Enlist E3TM4 offerings are expected to scale to 10% of North America acres with continued licensing opportunities.
- New Investment Authorized to Expand Spinosyns Capacity: Corteva's Board of Directors recently authorized an investment to increase Spinosyns fermentation capacity by 30% to address global market growth in insecticides that handle chewing insects in specialty and row crops. The additional capacity will be staged to come online over the next few years and will generate >$100 million of annual operating EBITDA1 at maturity.
- Delivering on Commitment to Return Cash to Shareholders: Corteva took two critical next steps related to shareholder remuneration commitments as it intends to return approximately $220 million to shareholders by the end of the year. The Company repurchased shares in the quarter as part of its $1 billion share repurchase program and in October declared its second continuous quarterly dividend since spin.
Crop Protection Summary
Crop Protection net sales were $1.2 billion in the third quarter, down from $1.4 billion in the same quarter last year. The decrease was due to a 9% decline in volume, a 2% decline in local price, and a 1% decline from currency.
The volume decline was driven by early demand for Spinosyns insecticides and seed applied technologies in Latin America, where approximately $80 million of sales shifted into the second quarter and a delayed soybean season in Brazil shifted sales into the fourth quarter. These shifts more than offset the approximate $65 million improvement in new product sales, driven by EMEA, versus the same quarter last year. The decrease in local price was driven by grower incentive discounts in North America. Unfavorable currency impacts were primarily due to the Brazilian Real and Euro.
Crop Protection operating EBITDA was $119 million, down 25% from the same period last year. Volume declines in Latin America, grower incentive discounts in North America, and currency more than offset cost synergies, sales from new products, and ongoing productivity.

Seed Summary
Seed net sales were $681 million in the third quarter, up from $551 million in the same quarter last year. The increase was due to a 31% increase in volume, partially offset by a 5% decline in local price and a 2% decline from currency.
Strong volume growth was driven by significant weather-related planting delays in North America in the first half of the year, which shifted soybean and corn seed sales into the third quarter. The decline in local price resulted from competitive pricing pressure in soybeans in the U.S. and increased soybean and corn replant in North America, which was partially offset by mix improvement in Latin America. Unfavorable currency impacts were primarily due to the Brazilian Real.
Seed operating EBITDA was a loss of $(295) million, compared to a loss of $(372) million in the same period last year. Volume gains from delayed seed sales in North America, cost synergies, and ongoing productivity more than offset decreases in local price and the unfavorable impact of currency.

Outlook
The Company affirmed 2019 guidance for net sales and expects operating EBITDA at approximately $1.9 billion, which is the lower end of the previously communicated range of $1.9 billion to $2.05 billion. The Company now expects to deliver at the lower end of the previously communicated range largely due to further negative impact of currency. The Company revised its full-year operating EPS range, now expected to be between $1.20 and $1.26 per share. Using the mid-point, this represents a $0.04 improvement over the mid-point of the prior guidance.
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 its control, such as significant items, without unreasonable effort.

Corteva Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
In order to provide the most meaningful comparison of results of operations, supplemental unaudited pro forma financial information for the first quarter of 2019 and prior has been included in this presentation. This presentation presents the pro forma results of Corteva, after giving effect to events that are (1) directly attributable to the merger of DuPont and Dow, debt retirement transactions related to paying off or retiring portions of Historical DuPont's existing debt liabilities, and the separation and distribution to DowDuPont stockholders of all the outstanding shares of Corteva common stock; (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the pro forma statements of income, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. Refer to Corteva's Form 10 registration statement filed on May 6, 2019, which can be found on the investors section of the Corteva website, for further details on the above transactions. The pro forma financial statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, and are presented for informational purposes only, and do not purport to represent what the results of operations would have been had the above actually occurred on the dates indicated, nor do they purport to project the results of operations for any future period or as of any future date.
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 include organic sales, operating EBITDA, pro forma operating EBITDA, operating EBITDA margin, pro forma operating EBITDA margin, operating earnings per share, pro forma operating earnings per share, base tax rate, and pro forma base tax rate. 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 5 of the Financial Statement Schedules. For first quarter and prior year, these non-GAAP measures are being reconciled to a pro forma GAAP financial measure prepared and presented in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. See Article 11 Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations starting on page 14 of the Financial Statement Schedules.
Corteva is not able to reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their 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 8 of the Financial Statement Schedules.
Organic sales is defined as price and volume and excludes currency and portfolio impacts. Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings (i.e., income from continuing operations before income taxes) before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating benefits , net and foreign exchange gains (losses), excluding the impact of significant items (including goodwill impairment charges). Non-operating benefits, net consists of non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit (OPEB) credits, tax indemnification adjustments, environmental remediation and legal costs associated with legacy businesses and sites of Historical DuPont. 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 EBITDA margin is defined as Operating EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Operating earnings per share are defined as "Earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted" excluding the after-tax impact of significant items (including goodwill impairment charges), the after-tax impact of non-operating benefits, net, and the after-tax impact of amortization expense associated with intangible assets existing as of the Separation from DowDuPont. 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. Base tax rate is defined as the effective tax rate excluding the impacts of foreign exchange gains (losses), non-operating benefits, net, amortization of intangibles as of the Separation from DowDuPont, and significant items (including goodwill impairment charges). All periods for the first quarter of 2019 and prior are on a pro forma basis as discussed above in the paragraph 'Corteva Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information'.

Exchange Gains/Losses |

The company routinely uses forward exchange contracts to offset its net exposures, by currency, related to the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities of its operations. The objective of this program is to maintain an approximately balanced position in foreign currencies in order to minimize, on an after-tax basis, the effects of exchange rate changes. The net pre-tax exchange gains and losses are recorded in other income - net and the related tax impact is recorded in provision for (benefit from) income taxes on continuing operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
