WILMINGTON, Del., Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- DuPont (NYSE: DD) today announced financial results⁽¹⁾ for the fourth quarter and full year of 2022.

"Our fourth quarter results underpin the quality of our portfolio and our ability to offset a continued challenging global macro environment by focusing on the levers within our control," said Ed Breen, DuPont Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "In the face of weak conditions in certain end-markets, namely electronics and construction, we delivered revenue and operating EBITDA results in line with our expectations."

"Our leading global market positions, disciplined pricing actions and focus on execution drove sales and earnings growth for the year and these factors will be critical as we navigate continued global macro challenges in 2023," Breen continued.

"The steps completed in 2022 to further transform our portfolio advance our strategy as a premier multi-industrial company and enable us to move forward with a stronger balance sheet and increased financial flexibility," Breen said. "For the year, we deployed more than $5.0 billion of capital through share repurchase programs and dividends and retired $2.5 billion in long-term debt which highlights our ongoing commitment to a balanced capital allocation approach. We also remain focused on value creation by strengthening our position within key growth pillars through continued investment and innovation."

(1)	During the first quarter of 2022, a substantial portion of the Company's historic Mobility & Materials segment met the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations for current and historical periods. See page 8 for further information, including the basis of presentation included in this release.
(2)	Adjusted EPS, Operating EBITDA, Operating EBITDA Margin, organic sales, free cash flow and free cash flow conversion are non-GAAP measures. See page 9 for further discussion, including a definition of significant items. Reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, including details of significant items begins on page 14 of this communication.
(3)	2023 adjusted EPS outlook on page 6 assumes that by year-end 2023, the Company substantially completes the remaining repurchase authority under its $5 billion share buyback program announced on November 8, 2022.
(4)	Future dividends are at the discretion of the DuPont Board of Directors.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Results⁽¹⁾

Dollars in millions, unless noted	4Q'22	4Q'21	Change vs. 4Q'21	Organic Sales ⁽²⁾ vs. 4Q'21
Net sales	$3,104	$3,246	(4) %	5 %
GAAP Income from continuing operations	$105	$167	(37) %
Operating EBITDA⁽²⁾	$758	$752	1 %
Operating EBITDA⁽²⁾ margin %	24.4 %	23.2 %	120 bps
GAAP EPS from continuing operations	$0.20	$0.29	(31) %
Adjusted EPS⁽²⁾	$0.89	$0.77	16 %

Net sales

Net sales decreased 4% as organic sales⁽²⁾ growth of 5% was more than offset by currency headwinds of 5% and portfolio impact of 4%.
Organic sales⁽²⁾ growth of 5% consisted of a 7% increase in price partially offset by a 2% decline in volume.

Price increase reflects actions taken to offset broad-based cost inflation.
Volume decline reflects the net result of continued strength in Water Solutions, ongoing growth in the auto adhesives portfolio and gains in certain industrial end-markets which were more than offset by further softening in smartphones and personal computing within Interconnect Solutions, slowdown in semiconductor and construction end-markets, and lower volumes from protective garments within Safety Solutions.

12% organic sales⁽²⁾ growth in Water & Protection; 2% organic sales⁽²⁾declines in Electronics & Industrial; 18% organic sales⁽²⁾ growth in the retained businesses reported in Corporate.
Organic sales⁽²⁾ growth in all regions globally, including 9% in U.S. & Canada, 7% in EMEA and 2% in Asia Pacific.

GAAP Income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations

GAAP income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations decreased as higher net charges related to significant items⁽²⁾, primarily the termination fee associated with the Intended Rogers Transaction, more than offset lower net interest expense and a lower share count.

Operating EBITDA⁽²⁾

Operating EBITDA⁽²⁾ increased as pricing actions and disciplined cost control more than offset inflationary cost pressure, currency headwinds, portfolio impact from prior year non-core business divestitures and lower volumes.

Adjusted EPS⁽²⁾

Adjusted EPS increased due to a lower share count, lower net interest expense and higher segment earnings which were partially offset by a higher tax rate.

Operating cash flow

Operating cash outflow in the quarter of $126 million, capital expenditures of $185 million and adjustments totaling $213 million for a tax prepayment related to the M&M Divestiture and the Intended Rogers Transaction termination fee resulted in a free cash flow⁽²⁾ use of $98 million.
Free cash flow in the quarter includes headwinds of about $200 million for transaction costs related to the M&M Divestitures and an approximately $100 million cash outflow associated with accounts payable prepaid in advance of the M&M Divestiture which was reimbursed to the Company as part of transaction closing and reported within investing activities.

Organic sales⁽²⁾ growth of 8% consisted of a 7% increase in price and 1% increase in volume.

Price increase reflects actions taken to offset broad-based cost inflation.
Volume increase reflects strong growth in semiconductor, water and industrial end-markets mostly offset by softness in smartphones and personal computing within Interconnect Solutions primarily during the second half of 2022, and lower volumes from protective garments within Safety Solutions.

11% organic sales⁽²⁾ growth in Water & Protection; 5% organic sales⁽²⁾growth in Electronics & Industrial; 15% organic sales⁽²⁾ growth in retained businesses reported in Corporate.
Organic sales⁽²⁾ growth in all regions globally, including 14% in U.S. & Canada, 7% in EMEA and 4% in Asia Pacific.

GAAP Income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations

GAAP income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations decreased as higher net charges related to significant items⁽²⁾and a higher tax rate more than offset higher segment earnings, lower net interest expense and a lower share count.

Operating EBITDA⁽²⁾

Operating EBITDA⁽²⁾ increased primarily on volume gains as pricing actions were mostly offset by inflationary cost pressure driven by higher raw material, logistics and energy costs.

Adjusted EPS⁽²⁾

Adjusted EPS increased due to a lower share count, higher segment earnings and lower net interest expense which were partially offset by a higher tax rate.

Operating cash flow

Operating cash flow for the year of $588 million, capital expenditures of $743 million and adjustments totaling $328 million for tax prepayments related to the M&M Divestiture and the Intended Rogers Transaction termination fee resulted in free cash flow⁽²⁾ of $173 million.

"Our teams successfully navigated a challenging 2022 despite significant inflation, global supply chain constraints, geopolitical tensions, dynamic global currencies and an ongoing global pandemic," said Lori Koch, Chief Financial Officer of DuPont. "In 2023, we expect continued strength in areas such as water and auto adhesives, along with stable demand across industrial end-markets including aerospace and healthcare products. We anticipate lower volumes during the first half of 2023 in consumer electronics and semiconductors resulting from decreased consumer spending, inventory destocking and COVID-related impacts in China, primarily in E&I. We also expect ongoing softness in construction end-markets in W&P during 2023."

"For the first quarter of 2023, we anticipate continued weakness in these consumer-driven, short-cycle end-markets resulting in organic sales declines in the mid single-digits versus the year-ago period," Koch continued. "As 2023 progresses, we assume stabilization of consumer electronics demand, normalization of customer inventory levels and improved China demand to drive sequential quarterly improvement in operating results, most notably in the second half of the year."

"Within the Interconnect Solutions business, we anticipate that channel destocking and customer production rates will begin to improve during the second quarter," Koch said. "Semiconductor fab utilization rates are also anticipated to bottom during the first half and improve around mid-year. This, coupled with demand rebound from China broadly across our product lines, underpin our view for the full year."

Overview
On February 18, 2022, DuPont announced that it has entered into definitive agreements to divest a majority of its historic Mobility & Materials segment, excluding certain Advanced Solutions and Performance Resins businesses, to Celanese Corporation ("Celanese"), (the "M&M Divestiture"). On November 1, 2022, DuPont completed the previously announced M&M Divestiture. The Company also announced on February 18, 2022, that its Board of Directors has approved the divestiture of the Delrin^® acetal homopolymer (H-POM) business. In addition to the entry into definitive agreements, the Company anticipates that the closing of the sale of Delrin^® would be subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, (the "Delrin^® Divestiture" and together with the M&M Divestiture, the "M&M Divestitures").

The M&M Divestitures represent a strategic shift with a related major impact on DuPont's Operations. As of March 31, 2022, the results of operations, including the gain on sale of the M&M Divestiture, of the M&M Divestitures are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The assets and liabilities of DuPont as of December 31, 2022 presents the Delrin^® Divestiture as discontinued operations, and the December 31, 2021 comparable period presents the M&M Divestitures as discontinued operations. The cash flows of these businesses have not been segregated and are included in the interim Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Unless otherwise indicated, the discussion of results, including the financial measures further discussed below, refer only to DuPont's Continuing Operations and do not include discussion of balances or activity of the M&M Divestitures. The Auto Adhesives & Fluids, Multibase^TMand Tedlar^® product lines previously within the historic Mobility & Materials segment (the "Retained Businesses") are not included in the scope of the M&M Divestitures. The Retained Businesses are reported in Corporate & Other. The reporting changes have been retrospectively applied for all periods presented.

Cautionary Statement about Forward-looking Statements
This communication contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "see," "will," "would," "target," and similar expressions and variations or negatives of these words.

Forward-looking statements address matters that are, to varying degrees, uncertain and subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, many of which that are beyond DuPont's control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results. Some of the important factors that could cause DuPont's actual results to differ materially from those projected in any such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) the possibility that the Company may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the $5 billion share repurchase program announced on November 8, 2022 and that the program may be suspended, discontinued or not completed prior to its termination on June 30, 2024; (ii) ability to achieve anticipated tax treatments in connection with mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, and other portfolio changes actions and impact of changes in relevant tax and other laws; (iii) indemnification of certain legacy liabilities; (iv) risks and costs related to each of the parties respective performance under and the impact of the arrangement to share future eligible PFAS costs by and between DuPont, Corteva and Chemours; (v) failure to timely close on anticipated terms (or at all), realize expected benefits and effectively manage and achieve anticipated synergies and operational efficiencies in connection with mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other portfolio changes; (vi) risks and uncertainties, including increased costs and the ability to obtain raw materials, related to operational and supply chain impacts or disruptions, which may result from, among other events, pandemics and responsive actions, including COVID-19 related disruptions in China, decline in consumer facing markets, and geo-political and weather related events; (vii) ability to offset increases in cost of inputs, including raw materials, energy and logistics; (viii) risks from continuing or expanding trade disputes or restrictions, including on exports to China of U.S. regulated products and technology impacting the semiconductor business; (ix) risks, including ability to achieve, and costs associated with DuPont's sustainability strategy including the actual conduct of the company's activities and results thereof, and the development, implementation, achievement or continuation of any goal, program, policy or initiative discussed or expected; and (x) other risks to DuPont's business, operations; each as further discussed in DuPont's most recent annual report and subsequent current and periodic reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business or supply chain disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on DuPont's consolidated financial condition, results of operations, credit rating or liquidity. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. DuPont assumes no obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.

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 14 and in the Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Measures 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.

The historic Mobility & Material segment costs that are classified as discontinued operations include only direct operating expenses incurred prior to the November 1, 2022 M&M Divestiture and costs which the Company will no longer incur upon the close of the Delrin® Divestiture. Indirect costs, such as those related to corporate and shared service functions previously allocated to the M&M Businesses, 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 will continue to undertake post-closing of the M&M Divestiture, and for which it 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 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 of intangibles, the after-tax impact of non-operating pension / other post employment benefits ("OPEB") credits / costs and Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs. Management estimates amortization expense in 2023 associated with intangibles to be approximately $590 million on a pre-tax basis, or approximately $1.00 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.

Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by/used for operating activities less capital expenditures and excluding the impact of cash inflows/outflows that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence. As a result, 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. Management believes 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. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by net income adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of non-cash impairment charges, gains or losses on divestitures, amortization expense of intangibles and tax benefit/expense from discontinued operations.
