Chemours

Wilmington, Del. – September 15, 2026 -- DuPont, together with The Chemours Company and Corteva Inc., has agreed to pay $455 million over 15 years to resolve PFAS litigation brought by the State of North Carolina and 11 local entities near the companies' Fayetteville Works facility.

The settlement carries a net present value of approximately $355 million, split among the three chemical makers, and covers claims tied to historical discharges from Fayetteville Works as well as separate state allegations of PFAS contamination linked to aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) use.

DuPont's exposure is capped near $126 million on a pre-tax present-value basis

Of that amount, 44% will be reimbursed by Qnity Electronics, and DuPont says the remaining liability is materially covered by existing accruals, limiting the hit to future earnings.
