NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods have been included. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for a full year. These interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 , collectively referred to as the “2015 Annual Report”. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained, as well as variable interest entities (VIEs) for which DuPont is the primary beneficiary.

Basis of Presentation

Certain reclassifications of prior year's data have been made to conform to current year's presentation. On July 1, 2015, the company completed the separation of its Performance Chemicals segment through the spin-off of all of the issued and outstanding stock of The Chemours Company (Chemours). In accordance with GAAP, the financial position and results of operations of the Performance Chemicals segment are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. The sum of the individual earnings per share amounts from continuing operations and discontinued operations may not equal the total company earnings per share amounts due to rounding. The cash flows and comprehensive income related to the Performance Chemicals segment have not been segregated and are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Comprehensive Income, respectively, for all periods presented. Amounts related to the Performance Chemicals segment are consistently included or excluded from the Notes to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements based on the respective financial statement line item. See Note 3 for additional information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Implemented in 2016

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The amendments under the new guidance require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The amendments in this ASU may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2016 on a retrospective basis. As a result of the adoption, $368 and $37 of deferred tax assets and liabilities, respectively, were reclassified from current to noncurrent assets and liabilities, respectively, as of December 31, 2015.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share or its Equivalent. This guidance removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. The guidance also removes the requirement to make certain disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient. Rather, those disclosures are limited to investments for which the entity has elected to measure the fair value using that practical expedient. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. A reporting entity should apply the amendments retrospectively to all periods presented and early adoption is permissible. The company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2016. The guidance will only impact disclosure and will not impact the company's financial position or results of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements to be Implemented

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The ASU was issued as part of the FASB Simplification Initiative and involves several aspects of accounting for shared-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, forefeitures and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share)

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments under the new guidance will require lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, other than leases that meet the definition of a short- term lease. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. The new leasing standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, requiring application at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its financial position and results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) jointly issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which was further updated in March, April, and May 2016. The new guidance clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In July 2015, the FASB approved a deferral of the ASU effective date from annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its financial position and results of operations.

Note 2. Proposed Merger with Dow Chemical

On December 11, 2015, DuPont and The Dow Chemical Company (Dow) announced entry into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), under which the companies will combine in an all-stock merger of equals. The combined company will be named DowDuPont. Following the consummation of the merger, DuPont and Dow intend to pursue, subject to the receipt of approval by the board of directors of DowDuPont, the separation of the combined company’s agriculture business, specialty products business and material science business through a series of tax-efficient transactions (collectively, the Business Separations.)

Additional information about the Merger Agreement is set forth in the company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 11, 2015 and the company’s 2015 Annual Report filed with the SEC on February 4, 2016.

In connection with the proposed transaction, DowDuPont Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and on June 9, 2016, the SEC declared effective, a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-209869) (as amended, the Registration Statement). The Registration Statement constitutes a prospectus of DowDuPont and a joint proxy statement of Dow and DuPont. The joint proxy statement relates to the separate special meetings of the companies’ respective common stock shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 2, 2016, to adopt the Merger Agreement and related matters.

Note 3. Divestitures and Other Transactions

DuPont (Shenzhen) Manufacturing Limited

In March 2016, the company sold 100 percent of its ownership interest in DuPont (Shenzhen) Manufacturing Limited to the Feixiang Group. The sale of the entity, which held certain buildings and other assets, resulted in a pre-tax gain of $369 ( $214 net of tax). The gain was recorded in other income, net in the company's interim Consolidated Income Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and reflected as a Corporate item.

Performance Chemicals

On July 1, 2015 (the Distribution Date), DuPont completed the separation of its Performance Chemicals segment through the spin-off of all of the issued and outstanding stock of Chemours (the Separation). To effect the spin-off, DuPont distributed to its stockholders one share of Chemours common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for every five shares of DuPont common stock, par value $0.30 per share, (the Distribution) outstanding as of 5:00 p.m. June 23, 2015, the record date for the Distribution. In lieu of fractional shares of Chemours, stockholders of DuPont received cash, which generally was taxable. In connection with the Separation, the company and Chemours entered into a Separation Agreement, discussed below, and a Tax Matters Agreement and certain ancillary agreements, including an employee matters agreement, agreements related to transition and site services, and intellectual property cross licensing arrangements. In addition, the companies have entered into certain supply agreements. In the first quarter 2016, the company prepaid $190 for certain goods and services expected to be delivered by Chemours over twelve to fifteen months. As of June 30, 2016, the balance of the prepayment was $132 recorded within prepaid expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Separation Agreement

The company and Chemours entered into a Separation Agreement that sets forth, among other things, the agreements between the company and Chemours regarding the principal transactions necessary to effect the Separation and also sets forth ancillary agreements that govern certain aspects of the company’s relationship with Chemours after the separation. Among other matters, the Separation Agreement and the ancillary agreements provide for the allocation between DuPont and Chemours of assets, employees, liabilities and obligations (including investments, property and employee benefits and tax-related assets and liabilities) attributable to periods prior to, at and after the completion of the Separation.

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Chemours indemnifies DuPont against certain litigation, environmental, workers' compensation and other liabilities that arose prior to the distribution. The term of this indemnification is indefinite and includes defense costs and expenses, as well as monetary and non-monetary settlements and judgments. At June 30, 2016 , the indemnified assets are $87 within accounts and notes receivable, net and $399 within other assets offset by the corresponding liabilities of $87 within other accrued liabilities and $399 within other liabilities.

Note 4. Employee Separation / Asset Related Charges, Net

La Porte Plant, La Porte, Texas

In March 2016, DuPont announced its decision to not re-start the Agriculture segment’s insecticide manufacturing facility at the La Porte site located in La Porte, Texas. The facility manufactures Lannate ^® and Vydate ^® insecticides and has been shut down since November 2014. As a result of this decision, during the six months ended June 30, 2016 , a pre-tax charge of $75 was recorded in employee separation / asset related charges, net which included $41 of asset related charges, $18 of contract termination costs, and $16 of employee severance and related benefit costs.

2016 Global Cost Savings and Restructuring Plan

At June 30, 2016 , total liabilities related to the program were $278 . A complete discussion of restructuring initiatives is included in the company's 2015 Annual Report in Note 4, "Employee Separation / Asset Related Charges, Net."

Account balances and activity for the restructuring program are summarized below:



	Severance and Related Benefit Costs			Asset Related Charges			Other Non-Personnel Charges ¹			Total

^1.	Other non-personnel charges consist of contractual obligation costs.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , a net benefit of $(90) and $(88) was recorded associated with the 2016 global cost savings and restructuring plan in employee separation / asset related charges, net in the company's interim Consolidated Income Statements. This was primarily due to a reduction in severance and related benefit costs partially offset by the identification of additional projects in certain segments. The reduction in severance and related benefit costs was driven by the elimination of positions at a lower cost than expected as a result of redeployments and attrition as well as lower than estimated individual severance costs.

The net (benefit) charge related to the segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 as follows:

2014 Restructuring Program

At June 30, 2016 , total liabilities related to the program were $40 . A complete discussion of restructuring initiatives is included in the company's 2015 Annual Report in Note 4, "Employee Separation / Asset Related Charges, Net."

Account balances and activity related to the program are summarized below:

Payments	(38		)	—		(38		)
Balance as of June 30, 2016	$	38		$	2	$	40


^1.	Other non-personnel charges consist of contractual obligation costs.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015 , a $2 net adjustment to the estimated costs associated with the 2014 restructuring program was recorded in employee separation / asset related charges, net in the company's interim Consolidated Income Statements. This was primarily due to the identification of additional projects in certain segments, offset by lower than estimated individual severance costs and workforce reductions achieved through non-severance programs. The adjustments related to the segments for the three months ended June 30, 2015 as follows: Agriculture - $4 , Electronics & Communications - $(11) , Industrial Biosciences - $1 , Nutrition & Health - $4 , Performance Materials - $2 , Protection Solutions - $(1) , and Other - $3 .

Cost Basis Investment Impairment

During the first quarter 2015, a $38 pre-tax impairment charge was recorded in employee separation / asset related charges, net within the Other segment. The majority related to a cost basis investment in which the assessment resulted from the venture's revised operating plan reflecting underperformance of its European wheat based ethanol facility and deteriorating European ethanol market conditions. As a result, the carrying value of DuPont's 6 percent cost basis investment in this venture exceeded its fair value by $37 , such that an impairment charge was recorded.

The following table summarizes the impacts of the company's foreign currency hedging program on the company's results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 . The company routinely uses foreign currency exchange contracts to offset its net exposures, by currency, related to the foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The objective of this program is to maintain an approximately balanced position in foreign currencies in order to minimize, on an after-tax basis, the effects of exchange rate changes on net monetary asset positions. The hedging program gains (losses) are largely taxable (tax deductible) in the U.S., whereas the offsetting exchange gains (losses) on the re-measurement of certain net monetary asset positions are not taxable (tax deductible) in their local jurisdictions. The net pre-tax exchange gains (losses) are recorded in other income, net and the related tax impact is recorded in provision for income taxes on continuing operations in the interim Consolidated Income Statements.

Note 6. Income Taxes

Each year the company files hundreds of tax returns in the various national, state and local income taxing jurisdictions in which it operates. These tax returns are subject to examination and possible challenge by the tax authorities. Positions challenged by the tax authorities may be settled or appealed by the company. As a result, there is an uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the company’s financial statements in accordance with accounting for income taxes and accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. It is reasonably possible that net reductions to the company’s global unrecognized tax benefits could be in the range of $100 to $120 within the next twelve months with the majority due to the settlement of uncertain tax positions with various tax authorities.

Note 10. Short-Term and Long-Term Borrowings

Repurchase Facility

In February 2016, the company entered into a committed receivable repurchase agreement of up to $1,000 (the Repurchase Facility). The Repurchase Facility is structured to account for the seasonality of the agricultural business and expires on November 30, 2016. Under the Repurchase Facility, the company may sell a portfolio of available and eligible outstanding customer notes receivables within the Agriculture segment to participating institutions and simultaneously must agree to repurchase such notes receivable at a future date. The Repurchase Facility is considered a secured borrowing with the customer notes receivables utilized as collateral. The amount of collateral required equals 105% of the outstanding borrowing amounts. Borrowings under the Repurchase Facility have an interest rate of the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR) plus 0.75% .

As of June 30, 2016, $1,050 of notes receivable, recorded in accounts and notes receivable, net, were pledged as collateral against outstanding borrowings under the Repurchase Facility of $1,000 , recorded in short-term borrowings and capital lease obligations.

Term Loan Facility

In March 2016, the company entered into a credit agreement that provides for a three -year, senior unsecured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $4,500 (the Term Loan Facility). DuPont may make up to seven term loan borrowings within one year of the closing date and amounts repaid or prepaid are not available for subsequent borrowings. The Term Loan Facility matures in March 2019 at which time all outstanding borrowings, including accrued but unpaid interest, become immediately due and payable.

Under the Term Loan Facility, DuPont can borrow funds at LIBOR plus a spread from 0.75% to 1.25% (LIBOR Loan Rate) depending on DuPont's long term credit rating. As of June 30, 2016, the company had borrowed $500 at the LIBOR Loan Rate and had unused commitments of $4,000 under the Term Loan Facility.

DuPont has the option of obtaining a same day loan under the Term Loan Facility at an interest rate based on the higher of a) the LIBOR Loan Rate, b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% plus a margin from 0.00% to 0.25% depending on DuPont's long term credit rating (Margin) or c) the prime rate plus Margin.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Guarantees

Indemnifications

In connection with acquisitions and divestitures as of June 30, 2016 , the company has indemnified respective parties against certain liabilities that may arise in connection with these transactions and business activities prior to the completion of the transaction. The term of these indemnifications, which typically pertain to environmental, tax and product liabilities, is generally indefinite. In addition, the company indemnifies its duly elected or appointed directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, against liabilities incurred as a result of their activities for the company, such as adverse judgments relating to litigation matters. If the indemnified party were to incur a liability or have a liability increase as a result of a successful claim, pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, the company would be required to reimburse the indemnified party. The maximum amount of potential future payments is generally unlimited.

Obligations for Equity Affiliates & Others

The company has directly guaranteed various debt obligations under agreements with third parties related to equity affiliates, customers and suppliers. In connection with the separation, the company has directly guaranteed Chemours' purchase obligations under an agreement with a third party supplier. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the company had directly guaranteed $311 and $337 , respectively, of such obligations. These amounts represent the maximum potential amount of future (undiscounted) payments that the company could be required to make under the guarantees. The company would be required to perform on these guarantees in the event of default by the guaranteed party.

The company assesses the payment/performance risk by assigning default rates based on the duration of the guarantees. These default rates are assigned based on the external credit rating of the counterparty or through internal credit analysis and historical default history for counterparties that do not have published credit ratings. For counterparties without an external rating or available credit history, a cumulative average default rate is used.

In certain cases, the company has recourse to assets held as collateral, as well as personal guarantees from customers and suppliers. Assuming liquidation, these assets are estimated to cover 23 percent of the $97 of guaranteed obligations of customers and suppliers.

Litigation

The company is subject to various legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of its business including product liability, intellectual property, commercial, environmental and antitrust lawsuits. It is not possible to predict the outcome of these various proceedings. Although considerable uncertainty exists, management does not anticipate that the ultimate disposition of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the company's results of operations, consolidated financial position or liquidity. However, the ultimate liabilities could be material to results of operations in the period recognized.

PFOA

DuPont used PFOA (collectively, perfluorooctanoic acids and its salts, including the ammonium salt), as a processing aid to manufacture some fluoropolymer resins at various sites around the world including its Washington Works plant in West Virginia.

Since 2006, DuPont has undertaken obligations under agreements with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and voluntary commitments to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). These obligations and voluntary commitments include surveying, sampling and testing drinking water in and around certain company sites and offering treatment or an alternative supply of drinking water if tests indicate the presence of PFOA in drinking water at or greater than the national health advisory level, even if provisional, as established from time to time by EPA. A provisional health advisory level was set in 2009 at 0.4 parts per billion (ppb) for PFOA in drinking water considering episodic exposure. In May 2016, EPA announced a health advisory level of 0.07 ppb for PFOA in drinking water considering lifetime versus episodic exposure.

At June 30, 2016 DuPont had an accrual balance of $19 related to the PFOA matters discussed in this Note. The company recorded an additional $5 during the three months ended June 30, 2016 primarily for the impact of the new health advisory level on the company's obligations to EPA which have expanded the testing and water supply commitments previously established. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement discussed in Note 3, the company is indemnified by Chemours for PFOA matters. As a result, the company has recorded an indemnification asset of $19 corresponding to the accrual balance as of June 30, 2016 .

Drinking Water Actions

In August 2001, a class action, captioned Leach v. DuPont, was filed in West Virginia state court alleging that residents living near the Washington Works facility had suffered, or may suffer, deleterious health effects from exposure to PFOA in drinking water.

DuPont and attorneys for the class reached a settlement in 2004 that binds about 80,000 residents. In 2005, DuPont paid the plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and expenses of $23 and made a payment of $70 , which class counsel designated to fund a community health project. The company funded a series of health studies which were completed in October 2012 by an independent science panel of experts (the C8 Science Panel). The studies were conducted in communities exposed to PFOA to evaluate available scientific evidence on whether any probable link exists, as defined in the settlement agreement, between exposure to PFOA and human disease.

The C8 Science Panel found probable links, as defined in the settlement agreement, between exposure to PFOA and pregnancy-induced hypertension, including preeclampsia; kidney cancer; testicular cancer; thyroid disease; ulcerative colitis; and diagnosed high cholesterol.

In May 2013, a panel of three independent medical doctors released its initial recommendations for screening and diagnostic testing of eligible class members. In September 2014, the medical panel recommended follow-up screening and diagnostic testing three years after initial testing, based on individual results. The medical panel has not communicated its anticipated schedule for completion of its protocol. The company is obligated to fund up to $235 for a medical monitoring program for eligible class members and, in addition, administrative costs associated with the program, including class counsel fees. In January 2012, the company established and put $1 into an escrow account to fund medical monitoring as required by the settlement agreement. Under the settlement agreement, the balance in the escrow amount must be at least $0.5 ; as a result, transfers of additional funds may be required periodically. The court appointed Director of Medical Monitoring has established the program to implement the medical panel's recommendations and the registration process, as well as eligibility screening, is ongoing. Diagnostic screening and testing has begun and associated payments to service providers are being disbursed from the escrow account; at June 30, 2016 , less than $1 has been disbursed. While it is probable that the company will incur liabilities related to funding the medical monitoring program, such liabilities cannot be reasonably estimated due to uncertainties surrounding the level of participation by eligible class members and the scope of testing.

In addition, under the settlement agreement, the company must continue to provide water treatment designed to reduce the level of PFOA in water to six area water districts, including the Little Hocking Water Association (LHWA), and private well users.

Class members may pursue personal injury claims against DuPont only for those human diseases for which the C8 Science Panel determined a probable link exists. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , there were approximately 3,500 lawsuits pending in various federal and state courts in Ohio and West Virginia. These lawsuits are consolidated in multi-district litigation in Ohio federal court (MDL). DuPont, through Chemours, denies the allegations in these lawsuits and is defending itself vigorously. As a result of plaintiffs' corrected pleadings and further discovery, in the first quarter 2016, the company revised downward to 30 the estimated number of the pending lawsuits that allege wrongful death.

In 2014, six plaintiffs from the MDL were selected for individual trial. One of these six cases was voluntarily withdrawn by plaintiffs. In the first case tried to verdict, captioned Bartlett v. DuPont, in October 2015, the jury awarded $1.6 in compensatory damages and no punitive damages. The plaintiff alleged that exposure to PFOA in drinking water had caused kidney cancer. DuPont is appealing the decision. The second matter selected for trial, Wolf v. DuPont, involved allegations that exposure to PFOA in drinking water caused ulcerative colitis; prior to trial, a confidential settlement for an immaterial amount was reached in the first quarter 2016 and has been substantially completed. Two cases alleging that exposure to PFOA in drinking water caused kidney cancer were settled in the second quarter 2016, for amounts immaterial individually and in the aggregate.

In the second case to be tried to a verdict, Freeman v. DuPont, the plaintiff alleged that exposure to PFOA in drinking water caused testicular cancer. In July 2016, the jury awarded $5.1 in compensatory damages plus $0.5 in punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. The company will appeal the decision.

As a result, four of the six cases have been resolved and the two that were tried to a verdict have been or will be appealed. In January 2016, the court determined that 40 cases in which plaintiffs assert cancer claims, would be scheduled for trial through 2017. Plaintiffs’ attorneys are responsible for identifying the 40 individual cases to be tried. In July 2016, the court scheduled the first case for trial in November 2016 and the second for trial in January 2017. In both of these cases, plaintiffs allege that exposure to PFOA in drinking water caused testicular cancer and high cholesterol. The court scheduled a third trial for May 2017 for which plaintiffs’ attorneys have not yet identified the individual case.

An approximate breakdown of the about 3,500 lawsuits still pending in the MDL is shown below.



Alleged Injury	Number of Claims
Kidney cancer	200
Testicular cancer	70
Ulcerative colitis	300
Preeclampsia	200
Thyroid disease	1,430
High cholesterol	1,340

This type of litigation could take place over many years and interim results do not predict the final outcome of cases. While DuPont believes it is probable that it could incur liabilities related to the lawsuits still pending in the MDL beyond the settlements discussed above, a range of such liabilities cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Given the wide range of outcomes associated with the six initial cases in the MDL as discussed above, including two cases that have been or will be appealed, the company does not believe activity to date provides a reasonable basis to derive a range of loss for the remaining lawsuits still pending in the MDL in total or by category of claim. The possible range of loss is unpredictable and involves significant uncertainty due to the uniqueness of the remaining, individual plaintiff's claims and the company's defenses to those claims both as to potential liability and damages on an individual claims basis, among other factors.

The court has ordered the parties to participate in nonbinding mediation regarding global resolution of the MDL. On July 13, 2016, the court entered an order scheduling initial meetings for the mediation on July 27 and 28, 2016.

Additional Actions

In the first quarter 2016, a confidential settlement was reached in the Ohio action brought by the LHWA claiming, “imminent and substantial endangerment to health and or the environment” under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) in addition to general claims of PFOA contamination of drinking water. The cost of the settlement was paid by Chemours.

Under the Separation Agreement, all liabilities associated with the PFOA matters discussed above, including liabilities related to judgments, including punitive damages, or settlements associated with the MDL, are subject to indemnification by Chemours.

Environmental

The company is also subject to contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the company or other parties. The company accrues for environmental remediation activities consistent with the policy as described in the company's 2015 Annual Report in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” Much of this liability results from the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA, often referred to as Superfund), RCRA and similar state and global laws. These laws require the company to undertake certain investigative, remediation and restoration activities at sites where the company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where company-generated waste was disposed. The accrual also includes estimated costs related to a number of sites identified by the company for which it is probable that environmental remediation will be required, but which are not currently the subject of enforcement activities.

Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, diverse regulatory agencies and enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of potentially responsible parties. At June 30, 2016 , the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet included a liability of $499 , relating to these matters and, in management's opinion, is appropriate based on existing facts and circumstances. The average time frame over which the accrued or presently unrecognized amounts may be paid, based on past history, is estimated to be 15 - 20 years. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these costs and, under adverse changes in circumstances, the potential liability may range up to $1,012 above the amount accrued as of June 30, 2016 . Pursuant to the Separation Agreement discussed in Note 3, the company is indemnified by Chemours for certain environmental matters, included in the liability of $499 , that have an estimated liability of $287 as of June 30, 2016 , and a potential exposure that ranges up to approximately $607 above the amount accrued. As such, the company has recorded an indemnification asset of $287 corresponding to the company’s accrual balance related to these matters at June 30, 2016 .

Note 12. Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

2015 Share Buyback Plan

In the first quarter 2015, DuPont announced its intention to buy back shares of about $4,000 using the distribution proceeds received from Chemours. In connection with the completion of the spin-off of Chemours, the Board of Directors authorized the use of the distribution proceeds to buy back shares of the company's common stock as follows: $2,000 to be purchased and retired by December 31, 2015, which was completed during 2015, with the remainder to be purchased and retired by December 31, 2016. There were no share repurchases under this plan in the first and second quarter 2016. As a result of the planned merger with Dow, the company’s opportunity to repurchase shares was restricted until after the shareholder vote on the merger. The shareholder vote occurred on July 20, 2016. During the remainder of the year, the company will evaluate the opportunities to enter the market and plans to make repurchases; however, it is unlikely that the company will complete all of the remaining $2,000 stock buyback by year-end. As of June 30, 2016 , in aggregate, the company has paid $2,000 and received and retired 35 million shares.

2014 Share Buyback Plan

In January 2014, the company's Board of Directors authorized a $5,000 share buyback plan that replaced the 2011 plan. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , the company purchased and retired 1 million and 4.6 million shares, respectively, in the open market for a total cost of $353 , which offset the dilution from employee compensation plans in the first and second quarter of 2015. There were no share repurchases under this plan in the first and second quarter 2016. As of June 30, 2016 , in aggregate, the company has purchased 34.7 million shares at a total cost of $2,353 under the plan. There is no required completion date for the remaining stock purchases.

^1.

The currency translation loss for the three months ended June 30, 2016 is primarily driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar (USD) against the European Euro (EUR), partially offset by further weakening of the USD against the Brazilian real (BRL). The currency translation gain for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was driven by the weakening of the USD against both the EUR and BRL. The currency translation gain for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is primarily driven by modest weakening of the USD against the EUR and BRL as compared to the currency translation loss for the six months ended June 30, 2015 which was driven by the USD strengthening against the EUR and BRL.


^2.	These amounts represent changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss excluding changes due to reclassifying amounts to the interim Consolidated Income Statements. See Notes 13 and 14 for additional information.


^3.	These accumulated other comprehensive loss components are included in the computation of net periodic benefit cost of the company's pension and other long-term employee benefit plans. See Note 14 for additional information.


^4.	The unrealized gain (loss) on securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 is due to the re-measurement of USD denominated marketable securities held by certain foreign entities at June 30, 2016 with a corresponding offset to cumulative translation adjustment.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

The company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are comprised of the following:



	June 30, 2016						December 31, 2015

Total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities	$	4,411	$	742			$	5,300	$	906


^1.	Available-for-sale securities are reported at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities were $205 and $465 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively.


^2.	Held-to-maturity investments are reported at amortized cost.

The estimated fair value of the company's cash equivalents, which approximates carrying value as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , was determined using level 1 and level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 measurements were based on observed net asset values and level 2 measurements were based on current interest rates for similar investments with comparable credit risk and time to maturity.

The estimated fair value of the held-to-maturity securities, which approximates carrying value as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , was determined using level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy, as described below. Level 2 measurements were based on current interest rates for similar investments with comparable credit risk and time to maturity. The carrying value approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the investments.

The estimated fair value of the available-for-sale securities as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was determined using level 1 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 measurements were based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The available-for-sale securities as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are held by certain foreign subsidiaries in which the USD is not the functional currency. The fluctuations in foreign exchange are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. These fluctuations are subsequently reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings in the period in which the available-for-sale securities are sold and the gains and losses on these securities offset a portion of the foreign exchange fluctuations in earnings for the company.

Debt

The estimated fair value of the company's total debt, including interest rate financial instruments, was determined using level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy, as described in the company's 2015 Annual Report in Note 1, “ Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. ” Based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on current rates offered to the company for debt of the same remaining maturities, the fair value of the company's debt was approximately $11,170 and $9,050 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respe ctively.

Derivative Instruments

Objectives and Strategies for Holding Derivative Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the company enters into contractual arrangements (derivatives) to reduce its exposure to foreign currency, interest rate and commodity price risks. The company has established a variety of derivative programs to be utilized for financial risk management. These programs reflect varying levels of exposure coverage and time horizons based on an assessment of risk.

Table of Contents

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share)

Derivative programs have procedures and controls and are approved by the Corporate Financial Risk Management Committee, consistent with the company's financial risk management policies and guidelines. Derivative instruments used are forwards, options, futures and swaps. The company has not designated any non derivatives as hedging instruments.

The company's financial risk management procedures also address counterparty credit approval, limits and routine exposure monitoring and reporting. The counterparties to these contractual arrangements are major financial institutions and major commodity exchanges. The company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties. The company utilizes collateral support annex agreements with certain counterparties to limit its exposure to credit losses. The company's derivative assets and liabilities are reported on a gross basis in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The company anticipates performance by counterparties to these contracts and therefore no material loss is expected. Market and counterparty credit risks associated with these instruments are regularly reported to management.

The notional amounts of the company's derivative instruments were as follows:



	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:
Foreign currency contracts	$	—	$	10
Commodity contracts	33		356
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:
Foreign currency contracts	8,796		8,065
Commodity contracts	36		70

Foreign Currency Risk

The company's objective in managing exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign currency rate changes. Accordingly, the company enters into various contracts that change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of its existing foreign currency-denominated assets, liabilities, commitments and cash flows.

The company routinely uses foreign currency exchange contracts, including forward exchange and option contracts, to offset its net exposures, by currency, related to the foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities of its operations. The primary business objective of this hedging program is to maintain an approximately balanced position in foreign currencies so that exchange gains and losses resulting from exchange rate changes, net of related tax effects, are minimized. The company also uses foreign currency exchange contracts to offset a portion of the company's exposure to certain foreign currency-denominated revenues so that gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the USD value of the related foreign currency-denominated revenues. The objective of the hedge program is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Commodity Price Risk

Commodity price risk management programs serve to reduce exposure to price fluctuations on purchases of inventory such as corn, soybeans and soybean meal. The company enters into over-the-counter and exchange-traded derivative commodity instruments to hedge the commodity price risk associated with agricultural commodity exposures.

Cash Flow Hedges

Foreign Currency Contracts

The company uses foreign currency exchange instruments such as forwards and options to offset a portion of the company's exposure to certain foreign currency denominated revenues so that gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the USD value of the related foreign currency denominated revenues. In addition, the company occasionally uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to offset a portion of the company's exposure to certain foreign currency-denominated transactions such as capital expenditures.

Commodity Contracts

The company enters into over-the-counter and exchange-traded derivative commodity instruments, including options, futures and swaps, to hedge the commodity price risk associated with agriculture commodity exposures.

Table of Contents

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share)

While each risk management program has a different time maturity period, most programs currently do not extend beyond the next two-year period. Cash flow hedge results are reclassified into earnings during the same period in which the related exposure impacts earnings. Reclassifications are made sooner if it appears that a forecasted transaction is not probable of occurring. The following table summarizes the after-tax effect of cash flow hedges on accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 :



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2016			2015			2016			2015
Beginning balance	$	(7	)	$	(18	)	$	(24	)	$	(6	)

Clearance of hedge results to earnings	4			3			11			7
Ending balance	$	10		$	(10	)	$	10		$	(10	)

At June 30, 2016 , an after-tax net gain of $9 is expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings over the next 12 months.

Derivatives not Designated in Hedging Relationships

Foreign Currency Contracts

The company routinely uses foreign currency exchange contracts, including forward exchange and options contracts, to reduce its net exposure, by currency, related to foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities of its operations so that exchange gains and losses resulting from exchange rate changes are minimized. The netting of such exposures precludes the use of hedge accounting; however, the required revaluation of the forward contracts and the associated foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities intends to achieve a minimal earnings impact, after taxes. The company also uses foreign currency exchange contracts, including forward exchange and options contracts, to offset a portion of the company's exposure to certain foreign currency-denominated revenues so that gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the USD value of the related foreign currency-denominated revenues.

Commodity Contracts

The company utilizes options, futures and swaps that are not designated as hedging instruments to reduce exposure to commodity price fluctuations on purchases of inventory such as corn, soybeans and soybean meal.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The table below presents the fair values of the company's derivative assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy, as described in the company's 2015 Annual Report in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

Note 14. Long-Term Employee Benefits

Pension Plans

The workforce reductions in the first and second quarters of 2016 related to the 2016 global cost savings and restructuring plan triggered curtailments for certain of the company's pension plans, including the principal U.S. pension plan. For the principal U.S. pension plan, the company recorded curtailment losses of $14 and $63 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , and re-measured the plan as of March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016. The curtailment losses were driven by the changes in the benefit obligation based on the demographics of the terminated positions partially offset by accelerated recognition of a portion of the prior service benefit. In connection with the re-measurement, the company updated the discount rate assumed at December 31, 2015 from 4.47 percent to 3.74 percent as of June 30, 2016. The re-measurement increased the underfunded status of the principal U.S. pension plan by $2,352 with a corresponding increase in net loss within other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . In addition, the company recorded a $31 settlement charge during the three months ended June 30, 2016 related to the company's Pension Restoration Plan which provides for lump sum payments to certain eligible retirees.

The following sets forth the components of the company’s net periodic benefit cost for pensions:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,

Net periodic benefit cost - Continuing operations	$	174		$	146		$	324		$	292

Other Long-Term Employee Benefit Plans

As a result of the workforce reductions noted above, a curtailment was triggered for the company's other long term employee benefit plans. The company recorded a curtailment gain of $3 and $33 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and re-measured the associated plans as of March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016. The curtailment gain was driven by accelerated recognition of a portion of the prior service benefit partially offset by the change in the benefit obligation based on the demographics of the terminated positions. In connection with the re-measurement, the company updated the associated plans’ weighted average discount rate assumed at December 31, 2015 from 4.30 percent to 3.55 percent as of June 30, 2016. The re-measurement resulted in a net increase of $265 to the company’s other long-term employee benefit obligation with a corresponding increase to net loss within other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

The following sets forth the components of the company’s net periodic benefit cost for other long-term employee benefits:

Recent Developments

DuPont Dow Merger of Equals

On December 11, 2015, DuPont and The Dow Chemical Company (Dow) announced entry into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), under which the companies will combine in an all-stock merger of equals. The companies anticipate that the merger will close and become effective (the Effective Time), in the second half of 2016 and the combined company will be named DowDuPont. Following the consummation of the merger, DuPont and Dow intend to pursue, subject to the receipt of approval by the board of directors of DowDuPont, the separation of the combined company’s agriculture business, specialty products business and material science business through a series of tax-efficient transactions (collectively, the Business Separations.) Dow and DuPont currently anticipate that the intended business separation transactions will be consummated as soon as practicable following the consummation of the merger, but consummation of the intended business separation transactions is not expected to exceed 18-24 months after the merger.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the company has incurred $76 million and $100 million, respectively, of costs in connection with the planned merger with Dow. These costs were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the company's interim Consolidated Income Statements and primarily include financial advisory, legal, accounting, consulting and other advisory fees and expenses. For full-year 2016, the company expects to incur about $445 million ($0.45 per share) of transaction costs related to the planned merger with Dow and related activities.

2016 Global Cost Savings and Restructuring Plan

In December 2015, DuPont announced a 2016 global cost savings and restructuring plan designed to reduce $730 million in costs in 2016 compared with 2015, which represents a reduction of operating costs on a run-rate basis of about $1.0 billion by end of 2016. As part of the plan, the company committed to take structural actions across all businesses and staff functions globally to operate more efficiently by further consolidating businesses and aligning staff functions more closely with them. In connection with the restructuring actions, the company recorded a pre-tax charge to earnings of $798 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, comprised of $656 million of severance and related benefit costs, $109 million of asset related charges, and $33 million of contract termination costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, in connection with the restructuring actions, the company recorded a net pre-tax benefit to earnings of $88 million, comprised of a reduction of $134 million in severance and related benefit costs, offset by $37 million of asset related charges, and $9 million of contract termination costs. The reduction in severance and related benefit costs was driven by elimination of positions at a lower cost than expected. The 2016 global cost savings and restructuring plan is on track to deliver $730 million in cost reductions in 2016 versus prior year.

The restructuring actions associated with this charge are expected to impact approximately 10 percent of DuPont’s workforce and to be substantially complete in 2016.

Separation of Performance Chemicals

On July 1, 2015 (the Distribution Date), DuPont completed the separation of its Performance Chemicals segment through the spin-off of all of the issued and outstanding stock of The Chemours Company (Chemours). The financial position and results of operations of the Performance Chemicals segment are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented.

Table of Contents

Results of Operations

Overview

The following is a summary of the results of continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 :


•	Net Sales were $7.1 billion, down 1 percent from the same period last year. Local price, currency and portfolio in the aggregate negatively impacted sales by 3 percent partially offset by a 2 percent volume increase.


•	Agriculture sales reflected 3 percent volume growth, driven by higher corn seed and insecticide sales, partially offset by lower soybean volumes in North America. Volume growth was offset by negative impacts from currency and portfolio.


•	Operating margins expanded in all reportable segments.


•	Income from continuing operations after taxes increased 5 percent to $1.0 billion, principally reflecting cost savings related to the 2016 cost savings and restructuring plan.

The following is a summary of the results of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 :


•	Net Sales were $14.5 billion, 3 percent below the same period last year. The sales decline was principally due to a 3 percent negative currency impact from the stronger U. S. dollar.


•	Agriculture sales were 2 percent lower, reflecting a negative impact of currency, as well as portfolio changes, partially offset by higher local selling prices and higher volume. Agriculture operating earnings increased 3 percent, principally reflecting higher local selling prices and product mix, lower product costs and cost savings.


•	Income from continuing operations after taxes was $2.3 billion, up 13 percent. The increase principally reflects the gain on the sale of DuPont (Shenzhen) Manufacturing Limited and cost savings related to the 2016 cost savings and restructuring plan, which more than offset the negative impact of currency.


•	The 2016 cost savings and restructuring plan is on track to deliver $730 million in cost reductions in 2016 versus prior year.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $7.1 billion, reflecting a 1 percent decline from the prior year. In the aggregate, lower local price, currency and portfolio negatively impacted sales by 3 percent. Volume increased 2 percent, principally reflecting increases in Agriculture, Performance Materials, and Nutrition & Health. The 1 percent negative impact from weaker currencies is principally due to the Brazilian real, Chinese Yuan and currencies in developing EMEA. The 1 percent decline in local price and product mix principally reflects lower ethylene and commodity product prices. Net sales of $2.1 billion in developing markets, which include China, India, and countries in Latin America, Eastern and Central Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia, increased 5 percent driven by 9 percent higher volume, partly offset by a 4 percent negative currency impact.

The table below shows a regional breakdown of net sales based on location of customers and percentage variances from the prior year:



	Three Months Ended June 30, 2016				Percent Change Due to:
	Net Sales ($ Billions)		Percent Change vs. 2015		Local Price and Product Mix		Currency		Volume		Portfolio and Other
Worldwide	$	7.1	(1	)	(1	)	(1	)	2		(1	)

Table of Contents

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $14.5 billion versus $15.0 billion in the prior year, a 3 percent decline, primarily due to a 3 percent negative impact from weaker currencies, particularly the Brazilian real and European Euro. Flat volume reflects increases in Nutrition & Health, Agriculture and Performance Materials offset by declines in Electronics & Communications and Protection Solutions. Net sales in developing markets were $4.2 billion, unchanged from prior year, as a negative currency impact, largely due to the weaker Brazilian real and Eastern European currencies, was offset by volume growth, principally from increased seed volume in Latin America. Sales in developing markets represent 29 percent of total company sales, increasing from 28 percent last year.

The table below shows a regional breakdown of net sales based on location of customers and percentage variances from the prior year:



	Six Months Ended June 30, 2016				Percent Change Due to:
	Net Sales ($ Billions)		Percent Change vs. 2015		Local Price and Product Mix		Currency		Volume		Portfolio and Other
Worldwide	$	14.5	(3	)	—		(3	)	—		—

Asia Pacific	2.8		(1	)	(2	)	(3	)	2		2
Latin America	1.1		(7	)	3		(12	)	3		(1	)

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)

COGS totaled $4.0 billion for the second quarter 2016 versus $4.1 billion in the prior year, a 3 percent decrease, as lower costs for raw materials more than offset an increase from higher volume. COGS as a percentage of net sales was 57 percent and 58 percent for the second quarter 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was due to the lower costs noted above.

COGS for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $8.2 billion versus $8.6 billion in the prior year, a 4 percent decrease, primarily due to lower costs for raw materials and the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus global currencies. COGS as a percentage of net sales was 57 percent and 58 percent for the six months ended 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was due to the lower costs noted above.

Other Operating Charges

Other operating charges were $143 million for the second quarter 2016 versus $174 million in the prior year, a decrease of $31 million, primarily due to $30 million of insurance recoveries related to Imprelis ^® herbicide claims. Costs related to the decision to not restart the Agriculture segment's insecticide manufacturing facility at the La Porte site were offset by lower operating costs and the absence of separation costs associated with the separation of Performance Chemicals.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, other operating charges were $328 million versus $322 million in the prior year, an increase of $6 million, primarily due to litigation expenses partially offset by the absence of separation costs associated with the separation of Performance Chemicals. Costs related to the decision to not restart the Agriculture segment's insecticide manufacturing facility at the La Porte site and lower insurance recoveries related to Imprelis ^® herbicide claims were offset by a $23 million reduction in the estimated liability related to Imprelis ^® herbicide claims.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)

SG&A totaled $1.2 billion for the second quarter 2016 versus $1.3 billion in the prior year, a 5 percent decrease, primarily due to lower costs related to the 2016 cost savings and restructuring plan. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 17 percent and 18 percent for the second quarter 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was due to the lower costs noted above.

SG&A for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $2.3 billion versus $2.5 billion in the prior year, a 6 percent decrease, primarily due to lower costs related to the 2016 cost savings and restructuring plan and the strengthening of the U. S. dollar versus global currencies. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 16 percent and 17 percent for the six months ended 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was due to the lower costs noted above.

Research and Development Expense (R&D)

R&D totaled $432 million and $495 million for the second quarter 2016 and 2015, respectively. Year-to-date R&D totaled $850 million and $974 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to lower costs related to the 2016 cost savings and restructuring plan and the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus global currencies. R&D was approximately 6 percent and 7 percent of net sales for the second quarter and year-to-date 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of net sales in both periods was due to the lower costs noted above.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net, totaled $51 million for the second quarter 2016 compared to $255 million in the prior year, a decrease of $204 million, primarily due to the absence of a prior year gain of $112 million for settlement of a legal claim related to the Protection Solutions segment, lower sales of assets, and an increase in net pre-tax exchange losses.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, other income, net, was $423 million compared to $454 million in the prior year, a decrease of $31 million. A gain of $369 million associated with the sale of DuPont (Shenzhen) Manufacturing Limited entity was partially offset by an increase in net pre-tax exchange losses of $226 million and the absence of a prior year gain for settlement of a legal claim. The increase in pre-tax net exchange losses was driven by losses on foreign currency exchange contracts.

See Notes 5 and 13 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the company's policy of hedging the foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities.

Interest Expense

Interest expense totaled $93 million and $94 million in the second quarter 2016 and 2015, respectively, reflecting the absence of a $20 million premium paid on the early retirement of DuPont debt in 2015, partially offset by lower capitalized interest related to construction projects.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, interest expense was $185 million versus $178 million in the prior year, reflecting lower capitalized interest related to construction projects, partially offset by the absence of a $20 million premium paid on the early retirement of DuPont debt in 2015.

Employee Separation / Asset Related Charges, Net

During the three months ended June 30, 2016 a net benefit of $90 million was recorded associated with the 2016 global cost savings and restructuring plan. This was due to a reduction in severance and related benefit costs that was driven by the elimination of positions at a lower cost than expected as a result of redeployments and attrition as well as lower than estimated individual severance costs. The three months ended June 30, 2015 included a $2 million net restructuring charge related to the 2014 restructuring plan.

The six months ended June 30, 2016 included a net benefit of $88 million primarily driven by a reduction in severance and related benefit costs in the 2016 global cost savings and restructuring plan. This was offset by a $75 million charge in the first quarter related to the decision not to re-start the insecticide manufacturing facility at the La Porte site located in La Porte, Texas. The six months ended June 30, 2015 included a $38 million charge related to cost investment impairments and a $2 million net restructuring charge related to the 2014 restructuring plan.

See Note 4 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Provision for Income Taxes on Continuing Operations

The company's effective tax rate for the second quarter 2016 was 23.0 percent as compared to 21.1 percent in 2015. The higher effective tax rate is primarily driven by the impact of certain net exchange losses recognized on the re-measurement of the net monetary asset positions which were not tax deductible in their local jurisdictions, the absence of a 2015 tax valuation allowance reversal, as well as geographic mix of earnings. These impacts were partially offset by a change in accrual for prior year tax positions, as well as the absence of a 2015 state tax rate charge related to the Performance Chemicals separation.

The company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was 24.0 percent as compared to 28.4 percent in 2015. The lower effective tax rate is primarily driven by the impact of the certain net exchange gains recognized on the re-measurement of the net monetary asset positions which were not taxable in their local jurisdictions, partially offset by the tax consequences of the gain on the sale of an entity in the first quarter 2016.

Agriculture - Second quarter 2016 segment net sales of $3,218 million were flat with prior year, with higher volumes offset by the negative impact of currency and portfolio changes. Seed sales declined 1 percent and crop protection sales increased 3 percent. Higher corn seed and insecticide volumes were partially offset by lower soybean volume in North America. Operating earnings of $865 million increased $93 million, or 12 percent, primarily due to lower product costs, higher volumes and cost savings, partially offset by a $36 million negative impact from currency.

Year-to-date segment net sales of $7,004 million decreased $151 million, or 2 percent, primarily due to the negative impact of currency as well as an impact of portfolio changes, partially offset with higher local price and volume. Increased corn seed volumes in Brazil from the Safrinha season, and in North America due to higher acreage, and increased demand for sunflower seed in Europe were partially offset by lower insecticide volume due to the impact of insect protected soybean varieties, weather conditions and higher inventories, and lower soybean seed volumes. An improved mix from new corn hybrids resulted in higher net corn price globally, led by North America. Operating earnings of $1,966 million increased $56 million, or 3 percent, primarily due higher local price and product mix, lower product costs and cost savings, partially offset with a $119 million negative impact from currency and the negative impact from the shutdown of the La Porte manufacturing facility due to lost sales, fixed overhead costs and inventory write-offs.

Electronics & Communications - Second quarter 2016 segment net sales of $494 million decreased $34 million, or 6 percent, primarily due to lower demand for products for the consumer electronics market and lower metals pricing. Operating earnings of $93 million increased $4 million, or 4 percent, as cost savings and lower product costs were partially offset by lower sales.

Year-to-date segment net sales of $946 million decreased $99 million, or 9 percent, due to lower demand for products for the consumer electronics market, competitive pressures impacting Solamet ^® paste, and lower metals pricing, partially offset by volume growth for Tedlar ^® film photovoltaics. Operating earnings of $152 million decreased $16 million, or 10 percent, as lower sales and a $16 million litigation expense were partially offset by cost savings and lower product costs.

Industrial Biosciences - Second quarter 2016 segment net sales of $355 million decreased $2 million, or 1 percent, primarily due to lower volumes in clean technologies offerings and a negative impact of currency, partially offset by increased demand in bioactives, primarily in home and personal care and new product introductions. In biomaterials, higher volume was partially offset by lower price. Operating earnings of $62 million increased $12 million, or 24 percent, primarily due to cost savings partially offset by a negative impact from currency.

Year-to-date segment net sales of $707 million were flat with prior year, as lower volumes in clean technologies offerings and the negative impact of currency were offset by higher pricing and volume in bioactives. In biomaterials, higher volume was partially offset by lower price. Year-to-date operating earnings of $125 million increased $21 million, or 20 percent, primarily due to cost savings, the absence of cost from the write-off of a prior year acquisition related indemnification asset in clean technologies and improved mix from new product launches partially offset by a negative impact from currency.

Nutrition & Health - Second quarter 2016 segment net sales of $835 million increased $9 million, or 1 percent, primarily due to broad-based volume growth led by probiotics and specialty proteins, partially offset by the negative impact of currency and lower local price. Operating earnings of $130 million increased $30 million, or 30 percent, as cost savings and volume growth more than offset a negative currency impact.

Year-to-date segment net sales of $1,636 million remained about flat from prior year, due to broad-based volume growth led by probiotics, specialty proteins and ingredient systems, offset by the negative impact of currency. Operating earnings of $234 million increased $48 million, or 26 percent, as cost savings and volume growth were partially offset by a negative impact of currency.

Performance Materials - Second quarter 2016 segment net sales of $1,335 million remained about flat from prior year as increased demand for polymers in Asia Pacific automotive markets, primarily China and North America, and increased ethylene volumes due to prior year unplanned outage were offset by lower prices driven by pricing pressure for raw materials pass-through and lower average ethylene spot prices. Operating earnings of $325 million increased $24 million, or 8 percent. Cost savings and increased volumes were partially offset by a $16 million negative impact from currency, as well as costs associated with a contractual claim.

Year-to-date segment net sales of $2,584 million decreased $135 million, or 5 percent, primarily due to lower local price and a negative impact from currency, partially offset by volume growth. Increased demand for polymers in automotive markets and increased volumes for ethylene due to prior year unplanned outage were offset by lower volumes in commodity product lines. Operating earnings of $598 million decreased $20 million, or 3 percent, as cost savings were more than offset by a $35 million negative impact from currency, as well as costs associated with a contractual claim.

Table of Contents

Protection Solutions - Second quarter 2016 segment net sales of $786 million decreased $20 million, or 2 percent, primarily due to volume declines in Nomex ^® thermal-resistant fiber and Kevlar ^® high-strength material driven by weakness in the oil and gas industry and delays in military spending. Operating earnings of $188 million increased $7 million, or 4 percent, primarily due to lower product costs and cost savings, partially offset by lower sales and a $4 million negative impact from currency.

Year-to-date segment net sales of $ 1,515 million decreased $81 million, or 5 percent, primarily due to lower volume, the negative impact of currency, and unfavorable mix. Volume declines in Nomex ^® thermal-resistant fiber, Tyvek ^® protective material, and Kevlar ^® high-strength material were driven by weakness in the oil and gas industry, delays in military spending, and lower industrial market demand. Operating earnings of $364 million increased $16 million, or 5 percent, primarily due to lower product costs and cost savings, partially offset by lower sales and a $10 million negative impact from currency.

Liquidity & Capital Resources

Information related to the company's liquidity and capital resources can be found in the company's 2015 Annual Report, Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources. Discussion below provides the updates to this information for the six months ended June 30, 2016 .



(Dollars in millions)	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities	$	5,153	$	6,206
Total debt	10,414		8,807

The company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are $5.2 billion and $6.2 billion, respectively. The $1 billion decrease was primarily due to cash used to fund seasonal working capital needs.

Total debt as of June 30, 2016 was $10.4 billion, a $1.6 billion increase from $8.8 billion as of December 31, 2015 , due primarily to borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and the Repurchase Facility, discussed below, as well as increased commercial paper borrowings, partially offset by repayments for debt maturities.

In March 2016, the company entered into a credit agreement that provides for a three-year, senior unsecured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $4.5 billion (the Term Loan Facility). DuPont may make up to seven term loan borrowings within one year of the closing date and amounts repaid or prepaid are not available for subsequent borrowings. The proceeds from the borrowings under the Term Loan Facility will be used for the company's general corporate purposes including debt repayment, working capital and share repurchases. The Term Loan Facility matures in March 2019 at which time all outstanding borrowings, including accrued but unpaid interest, become immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2016, the company had borrowed $0.5 billion and had unused commitments of $4 billion under the Term Loan Facility.

In addition, in March 2016, the company amended the existing revolving credit facility to reduce the aggregate principal amount of commitments from $4 billion to $3 billion consistent with lower expected commercial paper borrowings.

The Term Loan Facility and the amended revolving credit facility contain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default that are typical for companies with similar credit ratings and generally consistent with those applicable to DuPont’s long-term public debt. The Term Loan Facility and the amended revolving credit facility contain a financial covenant requiring that the ratio of Total Indebtedness to Total Capitalization for DuPont and its consolidated subsidiaries not exceed 0.6667. At June 30, 2016, the company was in compliance with this financial covenant.

The Term Loan Facility and the amended revolving credit facility impose additional affirmative and negative covenants on DuPont and its subsidiaries after the closing of the proposed merger with Dow, subject to certain limitations, including to:


•	not sell, lease or otherwise convey to DowDuPont, its shareholders or its non-DuPont subsidiaries, any assets or properties of DuPont or its subsidiaries unless the aggregate amount of revenues attributable to all such assets and properties so conveyed after the merger does not exceed 30% of the consolidated revenues of DuPont and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015; and


•	not guarantee any indebtedness or other obligations of DowDuPont, Dow or their respective subsidiaries (other than of DuPont and its subsidiaries).

The Term Loan Facility and the amended revolving credit facility will terminate, and the loans and other amounts thereunder will become due and payable, upon the sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Agriculture line of business to DowDuPont, its shareholders or any of its non-DuPont subsidiaries.

In February 2016, in line with seasonal agricultural working capital requirements, the company entered into a committed receivable repurchase agreement of up to $1 billion (the Repurchase Facility) that expires on November 30, 2016. Under the Repurchase Facility, the company may sell a portfolio of available and eligible outstanding customer notes receivables within the Agriculture segment to participating institutions and simultaneously agree to repurchase at a future date. See further discussion of this facility in Note 10 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The company has access to approximately $7.9 billion in unused credit lines, an increase of $3 billion from $4.9 billion as of December 31, 2015 due to the Term Loan Facility discussed above, partially offset by the amended revolving credit facility discussed above. These unused credit lines provide support to meet short-term liquidity needs and general corporate purposes including letters of credit.

Summary of Cash Flows

Cash used for operating activities was $1.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $2.0 billion during the same period in 2015. The $0.5 billion decrease in cash used for operations was primarily due to lower working capital, lower tax payments, and the positive currency impact that offsets cash used by foreign currency exchange contract settlements that is included in investing activities. These impacts were partially offset by a prepayment to Chemours in first quarter of 2016. See Note 3 for further information regarding the prepayment.

Cash used for investing activities was $0.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $1.0 billion during the same period last year. The $0.6 billion decrease in cash used for investing activities was primarily the result of proceeds received from the sale of an entity, the sale of marketable securities and reduced purchases of property, plant and equipment. The reduction in purchases of property, plant and equipment was primarily due to the absence of Chemours in 2016. This was partially offset by payments made for foreign currency contract settlements in 2016 versus cash received for settlements in 2015.

Cash provided by financing activities was $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016 , essentially unchanged compared with the six months ended June 30, 2015. Lower dividends and the absence of common stock repurchases in 2016 were offset by lower borrowings and lower proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Dividends paid to shareholders during the six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $0.7 billion. The company has paid quarterly consecutive dividends since the company’s first dividend in the fourth quarter 1904.

In January 2014, the company's Board of Directors authorized a $5 billion share buyback plan that replaced the 2011 plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 , the company purchased and retired 4.6 million shares in the open market for a total cost of $353 million, which offset the dilution from employee compensation plans in the first and second quarter of 2015. There were no share repurchases under this plan in the first and second quarter 2016. There is no required completion date for the remaining stock purchases.

In the first quarter 2015, DuPont announced its intention to buy back shares of about $4 billion using the distribution proceeds received from Chemours. In connection with the completion of the spin-off of Chemours, the Board of Directors authorized the use of the distribution proceeds to buy back shares of the company's common stock as follows: $2 billion to be purchased and retired by December 31, 2015, which was completed during 2015, with the remainder to be purchased and retired by December 31, 2016. There were no share repurchases under this plan in the first or second quarter 2016. As a result of the planned merger with Dow, the company’s opportunity to repurchase shares was restricted until after the shareholder vote on the merger. The shareholder vote occurred on July 20, 2016. During the remainder of 2016, the company will evaluate the opportunities to enter the market and plans to make repurchases; however, it is unlikely that the company will complete all of the remaining $2 billion stock buyback by year-end 2016.
