Corteva completes Vylor seed spin; VYLR set for NYSE regular-way trading
Corteva completed the spin of its seed business. In a Form 8-K accepted Thursday morning, the company said that on Oct. 1, 2026 it completed the previously announced separation of its seed operating segment into an independent, publicly traded company, Vylor Inc.
The separation was effected through a pro rata distribution of all outstanding shares of Vylor common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to holders of Corteva common stock as of the close of business on Sept. 24, 2026, the filing said. As a result of the distribution, Vylor became an independent, publicly traded company. Vylor common stock is expected to commence regular-way trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VYLR” on Oct. 1, 2026.
Corteva shares were near $12.15 by midday Thursday, versus about $77.65 at Wednesday’s close, reflecting trading after the pro rata Vylor distribution.
