Bayer resolution accelerates royalty neutrality to 2026

Corteva's Q4 2025 call highlighted a landmark settlement with Bayer that accelerates its licensing strategy, particularly in corn and cotton. Management reiterated 2026 EBITDA guidance of $4.1 billion, reflecting a 7% growth, driven by licensing, new products, and productivity gains. The call also addressed challenges in the crop protection market, especially pricing pressure in Brazil, offset by strong demand for new products and biologics. 2025 was a record year with 22% EBITDA margins for the first time as a public company.
