INDIANAPOLIS – September 24, 2026 – Corteva (NYSE: CTVA) today announced that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has declared effective Vylor’s Registration Statement on Form 10. The Form 10 includes information regarding the business, strategy and priorities for Vylor, as well as details about the separation of Vylor into an independent, publicly traded company, which is expected to be completed on October 1, 2026. The Form 10 can be found on Corteva’s website at: SEC Filing | Corteva Agriscience.
As previously announced, upon the completion of the separation, each Corteva stockholder of record as of the close of business on September 24, 2026 will receive one share of Vylor common stock for every share of Corteva common stock held of record by such stockholder as of such time. The distribution is expected to occur prior to 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on October 1, 2026.
