Announces Board declared the first quarter 2024 dividend, representing a 6% increase to quarterly dividend
WILMINGTON, Del., Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — DuPont (NYSE: DD) announced its financial results(1) for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.
“In the face of inventory destocking that impacted many of our end-markets in 2023 and continued economic softness in China, our teams remained focused on sound operational execution and driving productivity and cost discipline,” said Ed Breen, DuPont Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We delivered significant year-over-year cash flow improvement in 2023, including a strong fourth quarter finish, which underscores our ongoing prioritization of working capital management.”
“We continue to see demand stabilization within Semiconductor Technologies and Interconnect Solutions and we remain confident of a broad-based electronics materials recovery in 2024. We did, however, see incremental channel inventory destocking within our industrial-based businesses as we closed out 2023 and we are seeing similar trends continue as we enter 2024 with recovery timing expected to vary by end-market as the year progresses,” Breen added. “We remain confident in the through-cycle strength of our portfolio as our businesses are well-equipped to leverage market-leading positions and accelerate growth as inventories normalize and key end-markets recover.”
“We also continue to execute on our capital allocation strategy,” Breen continued. “Today we announced completion of the $2 billion accelerated share repurchase transaction launched last September, which completes our previous $5 billion share repurchase program announced in November 2022. We also announced authorization of a new $1 billion share repurchase program and a 6% increase to our quarterly dividend. These actions demonstrate our ongoing commitment to a balanced capital allocation approach focused on value creation for our shareholders.”

Net sales
Net sales decreased 7% as organic sales(2) decline of 10% was partially offset by favorable portfolio impact of 3%, primarily reflecting the August 1st acquisition of Spectrum.
Organic sales(2) decline of 10% consisted of a 9% decrease in volume and a 1% decrease in price.
Lower volume was driven primarily by the impact of channel inventory destocking within Safety Solutions, most notably for medical packaging, and within Water Solutions mainly in China.
15% organic sales(2) decline in Water & Protection; 7% organic sales(2) decline in Electronics & Industrial; 4% organic sales(2) decline in the retained businesses reported in Corporate.
13% organic sales(2) decline in U.S. & Canada; 11% organic sales(2) decline in Asia Pacific; 9% organic sales(2) decline in EMEA.
GAAP Loss from continuing operations
GAAP Loss from continuing operations compared to GAAP Income from continuing operations in the year-ago period resulted primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge partially offset by a tax benefit related to internal restructuring.
Goodwill ImpairmentIn connection with the preparation of year-end 2023 financial statements, driven by the continuation of a challenging macroeconomic environment primarily impacting construction markets, as well as incremental channel inventory destocking in medical packaging and industrial-based end-markets, DuPont identified a triggering event as of December 31, 2023 and performed an impairment analysis of the Protection reporting unit which consists of the Shelter Solutions and Safety Solutions lines of business within Water & Protection. The carrying value of the Protection reporting unit contains historical DuPont assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value in connection with the merger between Dow and DuPont, including the recognition of significant goodwill and intangible asset balances. Based on the analysis, DuPont recorded an $804 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge which is reflected in fourth quarter and full year 2023 GAAP earnings results.
Operating EBITDA(2)
Operating EBITDA(2) decreased as volume declines and the impact of reduced production rates to better align inventory with demand were partially offset by lower input costs, certain discrete items which benefited earnings by about $40 million and the earnings contribution from the Spectrum acquisition.
Adjusted EPS(2)
Adjusted EPS(2) decreased as lower segment earnings, foreign exchange losses led by devaluation of the Argentinian peso and higher depreciation more than offset the impact of a lower share count and a lower tax rate.
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations in the quarter of $646 million and capital expenditures of $145 million resulted in adjusted free cash flow(2) of $501 million. Adjusted free cash flow conversion(2) during the quarter was 133%.

GAAP Income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations
GAAP income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations decreased as a goodwill impairment charge and lower segment earnings more than offset a tax benefit related to internal restructuring, lower net interest expense and the impact of a lower share count.
Operating EBITDA(2)
Operating EBITDA(2) decreased as volume declines and the impact of reduced production rates to better align inventory with demand were partially offset by the carryover impact of pricing actions and lower input costs.
Adjusted EPS(2)
Adjusted EPS(2) increased as the impact of a lower share count and lower net interest expense more than offset lower segment earnings.
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations for the year of $2.2 billion and capital expenditures of $0.6 billion resulted in adjusted free cash flow(2) of $1.6 billion. Adjusted free cash flow conversion(2) for the year was 100%.
Share Repurchase
DuPont today announced completion of the $2 billion accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) transaction launched in September 2023 which completes its $5 billion share repurchase program announced in November 2022. In connection with completion of the $2 billion ASR transaction, DuPont received and retired in the first quarter of 2024 an additional 6.7 million shares of its common stock. In total for the $2B ASR transaction, DuPont received and retired 27.9 million shares of its common stock.
Additionally, DuPont announced that its Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase and retirement of up to $1 billion of common stock (the “$1B Program”). DuPont intends to enter into ASR transactions under the $1B Program beginning with an ASR transaction expected to be launched imminently to repurchase in aggregate $500 million of common stock. DuPont expects to complete the $1B Program by the end of 2024.
Under the $1B Program, repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions off market. The $1B Program terminates on June 30, 2025, unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors. The timing and number of shares to be repurchased will depend on factors such as the share price, economic and market conditions, and corporate and regulatory requirements.
Quarterly Dividend
The Company today also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a first quarter dividend of $0.38 per share on its outstanding common stock, representing a 6% increase to its quarterly dividend(3), payable March 15, 2024, to holders of record at the close of business on February 29, 2024.

“Despite significant volume pressure in 2023, we maintained sound focus on the operational levers within our control, working to minimize margin impacts while driving substantial cash flow improvement versus last year,” said Lori Koch, Chief Financial Officer of DuPont. “In addition, we acted quickly in executing restructuring actions to reduce costs that we announced this past November and will begin to realize the associated savings later in the first quarter.”
“For the first quarter of 2024, we expect sequential sales and earnings decline from the fourth quarter driven by additional channel inventory destocking within our industrial-based businesses along with continued weak demand in China. We also note the absence of about $40 million of certain discrete items which benefited fourth quarter operating EBITDA,” Koch continued. “We expect sequential sales improvement and an approximate ten percent increase in operating EBITDA in the second quarter of 2024 from first quarter driven by some inventory destocking abatement, seasonality factors and realization of cost savings.”
“Our current expectation for full year 2024 forecasts a return to year-over-year sales and earnings growth in the second half driven by anticipated electronics market recovery, including improvement in semiconductor fab utilization rates, as well as improved orders within industrial markets as customer inventory levels normalize,” Koch concluded.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresUnless otherwise indicated, all financial metrics presented reflect continuing operations only.
This communication 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 15 and in the Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Measures on the Investors section of the Company’s website. Non-GAAP measures included in this communication 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.
Indirect costs, such as those related to corporate and shared service functions previously allocated to the M&M Divestitures, do not meet the criteria for discontinued operations and remain reported within continuing operations. A portion of these indirect costs include costs related to activities the Company is performing post-closing of the M&M Divestiture or will perform post-close of the Delrin Divestiture and for which it is/will be reimbursed (“Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs”). Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs are reported within continuing operations but are excluded from operating EBITDA as defined below. The remaining portion of these indirect costs is not subject to future reimbursement (“Stranded Costs”). Stranded Costs are reported within continuing operations in Corporate & Other and are included within Operating EBITDA.
Adjusted Earnings (formerly referred to as “Adjusted results”) is defined as income from continuing operations excluding the after-tax impact of significant items, after-tax impact of amortization expense of intangibles, the after-tax impact of non-operating pension / other post employment benefits (“OPEB”) credits / costs and Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs. Adjusted Earnings is the numerator used in the calculation of Adjusted EPS, as well as the denominator in the revised Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion definition discussed below.
Adjusted EPS is defined as Adjusted Earnings per common share – diluted. Management estimates amortization expense in 2024 associated with intangibles to be about $600 million on a pre-tax basis, or approximately $1.10 per share.
The Company’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBITDA as this is the manner in which the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., “Income from continuing operations before income taxes”) before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating pension / OPEB benefits / charges, and foreign exchange gains / losses, excluding Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs, and adjusted for significant items. Reconciliations of these measures are provided on the following pages.
Operating EBITDA Margin is defined as Operating EBITDA divided by Net Sales.
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.
Organic Sales is defined as net sales excluding the impacts of currency and portfolio.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by/used for operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures and excluding the impact of cash inflows/outflows that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business liquidity. As a result, adjusted free cash flow represents cash that is available to the Company, after investing in its asset base, to fund obligations using the Company’s primary source of liquidity, cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations. Management believes adjusted free cash flow, even though it may be defined differently from other companies, is useful to investors, analysts and others to evaluate the Company’s cash flow and financial performance, and it is an integral measure used in the Company’s financial planning process.
Beginning in the second quarter of 2023, the Company has segregated the cash flows from discontinued operations from the cash flows from continuing operations in accordance with ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows. In connection with this change, the Company updated the definition of adjusted free cash flow to include only activities from continuing operations. The Company believes that excluding cash flows from discontinued operations provides the Company’s investors with better visibility into the underlying businesses cash generation for ongoing businesses. Adjusted Free Cash Flows has been recast for all periods to reflect the change in definition.
As previously disclosed, in connection with its earnings release for the third quarter of 2022, the Company updated the definition of adjusted free cash flow to exclude the impact of cash inflows/outflows that are of a certain magnitude, unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business liquidity. Therefore, adjustments to exclude the impact of cash inflows/outflows that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company’s business nor reflect the Company’s underlying business liquidity are adjusted to the extent they relate to continuing operations. Management notes that for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2023, there were no exclusions for items that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence. For the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2022, there is an exclusion of $163 million related to the termination fee associated with the Terminated Intended Rogers Transaction which is considered by management to be unusual and infrequent in nature and occurrence.
Management uses Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion as an indicator of our ability to convert earnings to cash. The Company has updated its definition of Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion to Adjusted Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted Earnings. Adjusted Earnings is also the existing income measure used within the calculation of Adjusted EPS (Non-GAAP). The previous definition of Adjusted free cash flow conversion was adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations divided by net income from continuing operations adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of noncash impairment charges, gains or losses on divestitures and amortization expense of intangibles. Management believes the revised definition of adjusted free cash flow conversion provides more consistency across the inputs used in the calculation of performance metrics and better aligns with the segregation of continuing operations within our Statement of Cash Flows. For the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2023, the primary change in the calculation from the previous definition is the exclusion of a $324 million tax benefit due to an internal restructuring involving certain foreign subsidiaries which is a significant item recognized in the fourth quarter earnings of 2023. Adjusted free cash flow conversion has been recast for all periods to reflect the change in definition and there were no similar events of this magnitude in such periods. The information in Non-GAAP Measures starting on page 15 is based upon the current definition.

For the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2023, the primary change in the calculation from the previous definition is the exclusion of a $324 million tax benefit due to an internal restructuring involving certain foreign subsidiaries which is a significant item recognized in the fourth quarter earnings of 2023. Adjusted free cash flow conversion has been recast for all periods to reflect the change in definition and there were no similar events of this magnitude in such periods.
