What specific financial forecasts did DuPont raise, and by how much?

DuPont raised its 2026 adjusted earnings per share forecast to between $2.35 and $2.40, up from the prior range of $2.25 to $2.30; it also increased its annual net sales forecast to $7.16 billion–$7.26 billion, from $7.08 billion–$7.14 billion.

How is DuPont offsetting higher input costs linked to the Middle East conflict, and what is the scale of that impact?

DuPont implemented surcharges and price increases to fully offset approximately $90 million in incremental costs tied to the U.S. and Israel's war with Iran, with coverage expected starting in the second quarter; it also estimates about $30 million in 'stranded costs', of which roughly $10 million will be removed in 2024 as it works to eliminate them over the first two years.
