In the last month, DuPont reaffirmed its 2019 revenue guidance at $21.5 billion and adjusted earnings per share outlook at $3.77-$3.82. It expects operating EBITDA to be at the lower end of the previously mentioned range on temporary supply-chain disruptions in Safety & Construction, and Electronics & Imaging units.
