DuPont de Nemours Inc. has announced a significant financial move involving its wholly-owned subsidiary, Qnity Electronics, Inc. On August 15, 2025, Qnity issued $1.75 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes, including $1 billion of 5.750% senior secured notes due 2032 and $750 million of 6.250% senior unsecured notes due 2033. These notes are part of DuPont's strategic plan to spin off its electronics business through the distribution of Qnity common stock to DuPont shareholders, with the spin-off expected to be completed by November 1, 2025. The proceeds from these notes, in combination with additional borrowings under new senior secured credit facilities and available cash, will be used to fund a cash distribution to DuPont of approximately $4.1 billion. The notes are currently held in escrow, with their release contingent on the successful completion of the spin-off. If the spin-off does not occur by the stipulated date, measures have been outlined to address the situation. This financial arrangement marks a pivotal step in DuPont's restructuring efforts, aiming to enhance focus and value in its electronics segment.
