Three portfolio milestones shape DuPont

On November 1, 2025, DuPont spun off its electronics business as Qnity Electronics, according to Financial Report Insights. The transaction reduced the continuing portfolio and changed the year-over-year comparison base.

On April 1, 2026, DuPont sold its Aramids business for USD 1.8 billion, as reported by Financial Report Insights. On October 7, 2026, Citigroup reduced its target from USD 170.00 to USD 162.00, the current market event covered by MarketBeat.

What does the target cut change?

The revised USD 162.00 target sits below the USD 170.00 level cited in the same October 7, 2026 report, but the Buy rating remained in place, according to MarketBeat. MarketBeat also cited 12 Buy ratings, four Holds and one Sell, producing a Moderate Buy consensus.

DuPont's second-quarter 2026 revenue reached USD 1.82 billion, up 4.00 percent from the prior-year quarter, while adjusted earnings per share rose to USD 1.88 from USD 1.27, according to Financial Report Insights. Operating EBITDA increased 5.90 percent to USD 448.00 million, a cleaner operating comparison than the GAAP result because the quarter included a USD 125.00 million pre-tax PFAS settlement charge.

DuPont will release third-quarter 2026 results on November 3, 2026, at 6:00 a.m. ET and hold its earnings call at 8:00 a.m. ET, according to the company's investor release. The scheduled report will test whether the post-spin portfolio can sustain its 4.00 percent second-quarter sales growth.
