DuPont fourth-quarter profit beats on higher prices

(Reuters) - Industrial materials maker DuPont de Nemours Inc reported a fourth-quarter profit on Tuesday that beat analysts' estimates, as higher pricing for its products helped offset an increase in costs.

On an adjusted basis, the company earned 89 cents per share, beating Wall Street estimates of 78 cents per share, according to Refinitiv IBES data.
