1.
Share amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, were based on 748.8 million shares of Corteva, Inc. common stock distributed to holders of DowDuPont's common stock on June 1, 2019, plus 0.6 million of additional shares in which accelerated vesting conditions have been met.
2.
Diluted earnings per share considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.
3.
These outstanding options to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive.
