Corteva Agriscience showed solid performance during the second quarter and first half of 2025. The company realized double-digit top and bottom line growth, improving its operating EBITDA margin by more than 200 basis points. These figures were bolstered by net improvements in pricing, volume, and cost efficiencies compared to the prior period. The demand for Corteva’s advanced technologies is strong, indicating that the growth platforms are delivering value. The company also exceeded its net cost improvement target for 2025 in the first half, incentivizing management to increase the full-year target to $450 million from $400 million.
