Company Report

Corteva's Seeds Spinoff Will Leave a Pure-Play Crop Protection Company

Corteva is an agriculture pure play that was formed in 2019 when it was spun out of DowDuPont. The company is a global leader in seeds and crop protection products. Seeds generated around 66% of profits in 2025, with the remaining 34% coming from crop protection. Corteva plans to spin off its seed business in late 2026. The seeds business will be named Vylor, while the crop protection business will retain the Corteva name. Corteva develops its pipeline by investing around 8% of sales in research and development. New products should generate sales and profit growth even as patents expire and generic products enter the market.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Corteva's profits will see a boost as its net royalty expenses decline in the coming years from lower royalty payments and higher royalty income.

Bears

Management's plan to separate the seed and crop protection businesses will hurt shareholder value as it will create dis-synergies from operating two publicly traded companies instead of one.
