Corteva plans to separate its Crop Protection Business into a standalone publicly traded company and distribute 100% of Vylor’s common stock pro rata to Corteva stockholders in a tax-free U.S. spin-off. For accounting purposes, the Crop Protection Business will be presented as discontinued operations, reducing pro forma 2025 net sales by $7,503 million from $17,401 million to $10,067 million. The transaction is expected to distribute approximately $3,536 million of cash to New Corteva and includes long-term commercial agreements with revenue and commission-sharing arrangements. Vylor expects to incur approximately $270 million of additional separation-related selling, general and administrative costs, primarily for advisors, counsel, bank success fees and tax costs.
