What was the main driver behind the revenue increase in Q3 2022?

The revenue increase of 17% in Q3 2022 was primarily driven by a 13% increase in price and a 9% increase in volume. This was partially offset by a 4% unfavorable impact from currency and a 1% unfavorable impact from portfolio.

Why did the company report a net loss in the third quarter of 2022?

The net loss of $331 million in Q3 2022 was primarily due to significant restructuring and asset-related charges totaling $152 million, which included costs associated with the company's "2022 Restructuring Actions" and its withdrawal from Russia. Additionally, other income - net decreased substantially compared to the prior year quarter.

What is the company's outlook for the remainder of 2022?

Corteva is affirming its net sales outlook for the full year 2022 to be in the range of $17.2 billion and $17.5 billion. It is also increasing its Operating EBITDA guidance to a range of $3.0 billion to $3.1 billion and expects operating earnings per share to be between $2.45 and $2.60.

How is the company managing inflationary pressures and currency headwinds?

The company is implementing a "price for value" strategy to recover higher input and logistical costs, which has contributed to price gains. While currency impacts have been unfavorable, the company utilizes foreign currency hedging programs to mitigate some of this risk. Ongoing cost and productivity actions are also being implemented to offset inflationary pressures.
