Corteva reported first-quarter 2025 results, with net sales down 2% to $4.42 billion while GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations rose to $0.97 from $0.53. The company reaffirmed its full-year 2025 guidance, including net sales of $17.2 to $17.6 billion and operating EPS of $2.70 to $2.95, which matters to shareholders because profit grew faster than sales while the outlook was left unchanged.
