How Dupont De Nemours makes money

It sells branded, technology-based materials, components and filtration systems to manufacturers, builders, utilities and industrial customers worldwide. Revenue comes through two segments: Healthcare & Water Technologies and Diversified Industrials.

What Dupont De Nemours does

DuPont de Nemours is a Wilmington, Delaware-based specialty materials company operating worldwide. It was formerly DowDuPont Inc. and took its current name in June 2019. Its Healthcare & Water Technologies segment makes Tyvek components for medical devices, packaging and protective garments.

What is Dupont De Nemours worth?

On an owner-earnings DCF, Dupont De Nemours's most-likely value is about $86 versus a recent price near $130 (34% above fair value). But TacticScale only calls a stock undervalued when the price sits below its conservative no-growth floor (~$52) with a margin of safety — so the honest verdict here is “Fairly priced — no edge.” Fair value earns its keep only at the extremes, not in the wide middle.

Verdict: Fairly priced — no edge
Owner-earnings fair value · recent price ≈ $130
Fair value (most likely)
$86
Range
$66–$115
No-growth floor
$52
Price
~$130

Price sits in the normal range — fair value isn't actionable here; it earns its keep only when price drops below the no-growth floor, or runs to roughly double the optimistic case.

Analysis, not advice. Fair value is a margin-of-safety estimate from a deterministic owner-earnings DCF, not a price target or recommendation. See the full breakdown →
