    Complementary Information

    On 31 August 2017, Dow and DuPont formed a new merged company known as DowDuPont. At that time, DowDupont Inc. became the parent entity of The Dow Chemical Company and E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, which remained as corporate groups. As initially announced, the intention was to subsequently split into three independent, publically traded companies focused on Materials Science (Dow), Agriculture (Corteva) and Specialty Products (DuPont).

    On 1 April 2019, the new Dow became independent. On 1 June 2019 Corteva and the new DuPont also became separate, independent companies.

    During 2019, Dow and DuPont retained their existing, separate company processes and compliance programs. To reflect this situation, both Dow and DuPont retained separate Transparency Register entries for their respective activities for the 2019 reporting period.


    Following the creation on June 1, 2019, of Corteva Agriscience as a completely independent company, separate registration was made to reflect the new status. The information in this current annual update to the Corteva entry in the Register is based on estimates as if Corteba had existed as an independent entity for the full 2019 year.
