DuPont posts Q3 beat, lifts FY‑2026 EPS outlook and announces $250 M share buyback

DuPont reported third‑quarter 2026 net sales of $1.9 billion, up 4% year‑over‑year, and adjusted EPS of $2.09, beating estimates. The company raised its full‑year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $7.47‑$7.52 and its revenue outlook to $7.19 billion. It also announced an intent to repurchase $250 million of shares in the fourth quarter.

The higher EPS guidance expands the earnings target for investors, while the $250 million buyback adds a near‑term return of capital. Both actions suggest stronger cash flow and confidence in continued growth.
