Item 8.01. Other Events.
On February 1, 2021, DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (“DuPont” or the “Company”) completed the separation and distribution of the Nutrition & Biosciences business segment (the "N&B Business"), and merger of Nutrition & Biosciences, Inc. (“N&B”), a DuPont subsidiary formed to hold the N&B Business, with a subsidiary of International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. ("IFF"). In conjunction with the closing of the N&B Transaction, the Company also changed its management and reporting structure.
DuPont is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to recast its consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 12, 2021 (the “2020 Form 10-K”) to reflect the presentation of the N&B Business as discontinued operations and to reflect the changes in the Company's reportable segments.
The Company has revised the following portions of its 2020 Form 10-K to reflect the presentation of its N&B business as discontinued operations and, where applicable, changes to its reportable segments:
•Part 1, Item 1. Business
•Part 1, Item 2. Properties
•Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
•Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
•Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
•Part IV, Item 15. Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules
Except as specifically set forth herein as required to reflect the historical results of the N&B business as discontinued operations and to reflect the change in the Company's reporting structure, this filing does not purport to update for any other information, developments, transactions, risks or any other known trends, events or uncertainties that have arisen since the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K was filed on February 12, 2021 or are otherwise known to management. More current information regarding events subsequent to the Company filing its 2020 Form 10-K on February 12, 2021 is contained in the Company’s first quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on May 4, 2021, (“2021 Q1 Form 10-Q”) and other SEC filings made subsequent to the filing of the 2020 Form 10-K. This Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K and those other subsequent filings with the SEC, including its 2021 Q1 Form 10-Q. These subsequent SEC filings contain important information regarding events, risks, developments and updates affecting the Company and its expectations that have occurred since the filing of the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K. The information contained herein is not an amendment to, or a restatement of, the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K.
