Current thesis

  • • First-half Crop Protection organic sales declined 1%; a 3% price decline, primarily linked to Latin American market dynamics, outweighed 2% volume growth. [#SEC-8K-2026-07-30] https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1755672/000175567226000022/a2q_2026xearningsxnewsxr.htm
  • • Crop Protection price pressure may persist, while separation litigation constrains near-term capital returns.
