DuPont Raises Full-Year Outlook, Approves US$ 2 Billion Share Buyback Programme
DuPont posted stronger-than-expected third quarter results, driven by steady demand in electronics, healthcare and water end-markets. Net sales rose 7% to US$ 3.07 billion, while operating EBITDA increased 6% to US$ 840 million. The company maintained adjusted EPS at US$ 1.09, with growth in segment earnings offset by a higher tax rate.
DuPont also announced that its board has approved a new US$ 2 billion share repurchase authorization, with a US$ 500 million accelerated buyback to begin shortly. In addition, the board declared a quarterly dividend of US$ 0.20 per share, payable December 15, 2025.
CEO Lori Koch stated that the company’s strong performance and operational improvements have prompted an upward revision to full-year earnings guidance. “The new DuPont is well-positioned to drive sustainable value creation,” she said.
