OVERVIEW
DuPont is a global innovation leader with technology-based materials and solutions that help transform industries and everyday life by applying diverse science and expertise to help customers advance their best ideas and deliver essential innovations in key markets including electronics, transportation, building and construction, healthcare and worker safety. As ofMarch 31, 2022 , the Company has$2.9 billion of working capital and approximately$1.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents. The Company expects its cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and ability to access the debt capital markets to provide sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility to meet the liquidity requirements associated with its continuing operations.
Outlined below are recent developments and material historical transactions impacting this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Mobility & Materials Intended Divestitures OnFebruary 17, 2022 , DuPont entered into a Transaction Agreement (the "Transaction Agreement") with Celanese Corporation ("Celanese") to divest a majority of the historic Mobility & Materials segment, including the Engineering Polymers business line and select product lines within the Advanced Solutions and Performance Resins business lines (the "M&M Divestiture") for$11 billion in cash, subject to customary transaction adjustments in accordance with the Transaction Agreement. Closing is expected around the end of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The Company also announced onFebruary 18, 2022 that its Board of Directors approved of the divestiture of the Delrin® acetal homopolymer (H-POM) business (the "Delrin® Divestiture"), subject to entry into a definitive agreement and satisfaction of closing conditions. The Delrin® Divestiture together with the M&M Divestiture discussed above (the "M&M Divestitures") represents a strategic shift that will have a major impact on DuPont's operations and results. The financial position of DuPont as ofMarch 31, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 present the businesses to be divested as part of the M&M Divestiture and the Delrin® Divestiture (the "M&M Businesses") as held for sale presented as discontinued operations. The results of operations for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 and 2021 present the financial results of the M&M Businesses as discontinued operations. The cash flows and comprehensive income related to the M&M Businesses have not been segregated and are included in the interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and interim Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, respectively, for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, the information in the notes to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements refer only to DuPont's continuing operations and do not include discussion of balances or activity of the M&M Businesses. See Note 4 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. The Auto Adhesives & Fluids, MultibaseTM and Tedlar® product lines (the "Retained Businesses") are not included within the M&M Divestitures. Effective with the signing of the transaction agreement, the Retained Businesses were realigned to Corporate & Other. The reporting changes have been retrospectively applied for all periods presented. COVID-19 Pandemic As described in the Analysis of Operations section within the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") and its variants continue to adversely impact the global economy, including certain suppliers of the Company's key raw materials. Within the first quarter of 2022, while end-market demand remained strong, the Company experienced supply chain challenges driven by COVID-19, including the related mandatory site shutdowns inChina . At this time, the Company is not able to predict the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to impact its consolidated results of operations or financial condition. 39
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of ContentsRussia ,Belarus ,Ukraine With respect to the war in theUkraine , the Company's business and operational environment is impacted by, among other things, responsive governmental actions including sanctions imposed by theU.S. and other governments. In light of the conflict during the first quarter, the Company suspended its business operations inRussia andBelarus , the net sales from which are less than one percent of DuPont's consolidated net sales in 2021. The Company does not have operations in theUkraine . DuPont has experienced supply chain challenges and increased logistics and raw materials costs due in part to the negative impact on the global economy from the ongoing war inUkraine . The extent to which the conflict may continue to impact DuPont in future periods will depend on future developments, including the severity and duration of the conflict, its impact on regional and global economic conditions, and the extent of supply chain disruptions. DuPont will continue to monitor the conflict and assess the related sanctions and other effects and may take further actions if necessary.

The Company reported net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $3.3
billion , up 9 percent from $3.0 billion for the three months ended March 31,
2021 , due to a 6 percent increase in local price and product mix, a 3 percent
increase in volume, and a 2 percent increase in portfolio actions, partially
offset by a 2 percent unfavorable currency impact. Local price and product mix
increase driven by Water & Protection (up 10 percent) and Corporate & Other (up
10 percent). Local price and product mix increased across all regions. Volume
increase was driven by Electronics & Industrial (up 8 percent), partially offset
by Corporate & Other (down 6 percent). Portfolio and other changes contributed 2
percent growth as the addition of Laird PM in Electronics & Industrial (up 11
percent) was partially offset by declines within Corporate & Other (down 23
percent) due to the sale of businesses. Currency was down 2 percent compared
with the same period last year, driven by EMEA (down 6 percent).

Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization of intangibles was $153 million in the first quarter of 2022, up
from $125 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase for the three
months ended March 31, 2022 as compared with the same period of the prior year
was primarily due to the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in the
Laird PM acquisition.
Restructuring and Asset Related Charges - Net
Restructuring and asset related charges - net were $101 million in the first
quarter of 2022, up from $2 million in the first quarter of 2021. The charges in
the first quarter of 2022 include a $94 million impairment charge of an equity
method investment and a $7 million charge related to the 2021 Restructuring
Actions. The activity in the first quarter of 2021 is due to a $2 million charge
related to the 2020 Restructuring Program.
See Note 6 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Acquisition, Integration and Separation Costs Acquisition, integration and separation costs, primarily consist of financial advisory, information technology, legal, accounting, consulting, and other professional advisory fees. The Company recorded costs of$8 million and$6 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , these costs were primarily associated with the execution of activities related to strategic initiatives including the acquisition of Laird PM and the Intended Rogers Acquisition. For the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 , these costs were primarily associated with the execution of activities related to strategic initiatives, which primarily includes the sale of the Solamet® business unit and the planned divestiture of the Biomaterials business unit.
See Note 4 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Equity in Earnings of Nonconsolidated AffiliatesThe Company's share of the earnings of nonconsolidated affiliates was$26 million in the first quarter of 2022, up from$23 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 compared to 2021 is primarily due to higher equity earnings across the portfolio. Sundry Income (Expense) - Net Sundry income (expense) - net includes a variety of income and expense items such as foreign currency exchange gains or losses, interest income, dividends from investments, gains and losses on sales of investments and assets, non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit plan credits or costs, and certain litigation matters. Sundry income (expense) - net in the first quarter of 2022 was income of$3 million compared with income of$19 million in the first quarter of 2021. The first quarter of 2022 included income related to non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit credits of$7 million , partially offset by foreign currency exchange losses of$5 million . The first quarter of 2021 included benefits related to the sale of assets within the Electronics & Industrial segment of$24 million and income related to non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit credits of$6 million , partially offset by a$15 million impairment charge related to an asset sale and foreign currency exchange losses of$6 million . Interest Expense Interest expense was$120 million and$146 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in interest expense primarily relates to the reduction in long-term debt following the N&B Transaction, specifically the early repayment of the$3.0 billion Term Loan Facilities inFebruary 2021 and the redemption of theMay 2020 notes completed inMay 2021 . Refer to Note 15 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Provision for Income Taxes on Continuing OperationsThe Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned and the level of income relative to tax attribute. The effective tax rate on continuing operations for the first quarter of 2022 was 16.8 percent, compared with an effective tax rate of (0.3) percent for the first quarter of 2021. The effective tax rate differential for the first quarter of 2022 was principally the result of a$94 million impairment charge on an equity method investment which resulted in a tax benefit of$29 million . The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was principally the result of a$59 million tax benefit related to the step-up in tax basis in the goodwill of the Company's European regional headquarters legal entity. 42

SEGMENT RESULTS
EffectiveFebruary 2022 , the revenues and certain expenses of the M&M Businesses are classified as discontinued operations in the current and historical periods. In addition, the Auto Adhesives & Fluids, MultibaseTM and Tedlar® product lines 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 reflected for all periods presented. Mobility & Material businesses costs classified as discontinued operations include only direct operating expenses incurred by the M&M Businesses which the Company will cease to incur upon the close of the M&M Divestitures. 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 are not subject to future reimbursement ("Stranded Costs"). Stranded Costs are reported within continuing operations in Corporate & Other and are included within Operating EBITDA. 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 can be found in Note 23 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements. 43 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents ELECTRONICS & INDUSTRIAL The Electronics & Industrial segment is a leading global supplier of differentiated materials and systems for a broad range of consumer electronics including mobile devices, television monitors, personal computers and electronics used in a variety of industries. The segment is a leading provider of materials and solutions for the fabrication and packaging of semiconductors and integrated circuits and provides innovative solutions for thermal management and electromagnetic shielding as well as metallization processes for metal finishing, decorative, and industrial applications.

Net sales increased due to an 11 percent portfolio increase, an 8 percent increase in volume and a 1 percent increase in local price, partially offset by 2 percent unfavorable currency impact. The portfolio impact reflects theJuly 1, 2021 acquisition of Laird PM. Volume growth was led by Semiconductor Technologies which was driven by transition to more advanced node technologies, growth in high performance computing and 5G communications. Within Industrial Solutions, volume gains were driven by growth in display materials, healthcare and industrial markets. Within Interconnect Solutions, volume gains in industrial markets were more than offset by weakness in consumer electronics. Operating EBITDA was$476 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , up 9 percent compared with$436 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 primarily driven by the acquisition of Laird PM and strong volume growth, partially offset by higher raw materials and logistics costs and the absence of a gain on an asset sale. 44

Net sales increased due to a 10 percent increase in local price, partially offset by a 2 percent unfavorable currency impact. Volume and portfolio remained flat. Strong demand for water technologies within Water Solutions, increased demand in Shelter Solutions residential construction and improvement in commercial construction were offset by volume declines in Safety Solutions. Within Water & Protection pricing actions throughout the segment were led by Shelter Solutions and Safety Solutions. Operating EBITDA was$341 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , down 4 percent compared with$355 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 as pricing actions were more than offset by changes in product mix and higher raw material, logistics and energy costs.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
Liquidity & Capital Resources
Information related to the Company's liquidity and capital resources can be
found in the Company's 2021 Annual Report, Part II, Item 7. Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,
Liquidity and Capital Resources. Discussion below provides the updates to this
information for the three months ended March 31, 2022 .
The Company continually reviews its sources of liquidity and debt portfolio and
may make adjustments to one or both to ensure adequate liquidity and increase
the Company's optionality and financing efficiency as it relates to financing
cost and balancing terms/maturities. The Company's primary source of incremental
liquidity is cash flows from operating activities. Management expects the
generation of cash from operations and the ability to access the debt capital
markets and other sources of liquidity will continue to provide sufficient
liquidity and financial flexibility to meet the Company's and its subsidiaries'
obligations as they come due.
In millions March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,672 $ 1,972
Total debt $ 11,039 $ 10,782
The Company's cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022 and December 31,
2021 were $1.7 billion and $2.0 billion , respectively, of which $1.5 billion
at March 31, 2022 and $1.4 billion at December 31, 2021 were held by
subsidiaries in foreign countries, including United States territories. The
increase in cash and cash equivalents held by subsidiaries in foreign countries
is due to operating cashflows during the period, partly offset by repatriation.
For each of its foreign subsidiaries, the Company makes an assertion regarding
the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the balance
available to be repatriated to the United States .
Total debt at
As ofMarch 31, 2022 , the Company is contractually obligated to make future cash payments of$10.7 billion and$5.9 billion associated with principal and interest, respectively, on debt obligations assuming held to maturity.

The Company utilized the Special Cash Payment to repay the$3 billion Term Loan Facilities and used a portion of the Special Cash Payment to redeem theMay 2020 Notes, as discussed below. Term Loan Facilities OnFebruary 1, 2021 , the Company terminated its fully drawn$3 billion term loan facilities. The termination triggered the repayment of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of$3 billion , plus accrued and unpaid interest through and includingJanuary 31, 2021 . The Company funded the repayment with proceeds from the Special Cash Payment. Revolving Credit Facilities OnApril 12, 2022 , the Company entered into a new$2.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the "$2022 Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility"). As of the effectiveness of the 2022 Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility, the Company's prior$3 billion five-year revolving credit facility entered inMay 2019 was terminated. The 2022 Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility is generally expected to remain undrawn and serve as a backstop to the Company's commercial paper and letter of credit issuance. OnApril 12, 2022 , the Company entered into an updated$1.0 billion 364-day revolving credit facility (the "2022$1B Revolving Credit Facility") as the$1.0 billion 364-day revolving credit facility entered inApril 2021 (the "2021$1B Revolving Credit Facility") had an expiration date in mid-April. As of the effectiveness of the 2022$1B Revolving Credit Facility, the 2021$1B Revolving Credit Facility was terminated. The 2022$1B Revolving Credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes. 46 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of ContentsMay 2020 Debt Offering OnMay 1, 2020 , the Company completed an underwritten public offering of senior unsecured notes (the "May 2020 Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of$2 billion of 2.169 percent fixed rate Notes dueMay 1, 2023 (the "May 2020 Debt Offering").

The 2021 Term Loan Facility is required to be repaid upon completion of the intended divestiture of the In-Scope M&M Businesses. Commensurate with the entry into the 2021 Term Loan Facility, the commitments under the Bridge Letter were terminated. Credit Ratings The Company's credit ratings impact its access to the debt capital markets and cost of capital. The Company remains committed to maintaining a strong financial position with a balanced financial policy focused on maintaining a strong investment-grade rating and driving shareholder value and remuneration. AtApril 30, 2022 , DuPont's credit ratings were as follows: Credit Ratings Long-Term Rating Short-Term Rating Outlook Standard & Poor's BBB+ A-2 Stable Moody's Investors Service Baa1 P-2 Negative Fitch Ratings BBB+ F-2 Stable The Company's indenture covenants include customary limitations on liens, sale and leaseback transactions, and mergers and consolidations, subject to certain limitations.
