DuPont net falls 98%; Unveils revamp, layoffs
DuPont Co.’s third-quarter earnings fell 98% as the diversified U.S. manufacturer saw its revenue fall and was hit by large, one-time charges.
Shares fell 3.5% to $48 in light premarket trading as results missed Wall Street expectations.
…
On Tuesday, Chief Executive Ellen Kullman said, “Weaker-than-expected demand in titanium-dioxide and photovoltaic markets contributed to the decline from last year’s record third-quarter earnings. We are addressing these challenges now to position ourselves for improved performance.”
DuPont’s results have suffered of late from lower volume and currency headwinds, although sales in its key agricultural segment have seen recent improvements.
United Parcel Service Inc.’s third-quarter earnings fell 56% on pension-restructuring charges as the package delivery company’s revenue missed consensus estimates and margins shrank.
“Our results were achieved in an environment of slowing global trade and changing market dynamics,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Scott Davis. “This not only highlights the flexibility of our business model; it illustrates the breadth of the UPS product portfolio in meeting the needs of customers.”
