DuPont de Nemours Inc (NYSE: DD) shares surged 7.84% in the pre-market trading session on Tuesday, following the company's strong fourth-quarter 2024 results and raised 2025 financial guidance. The industrial materials maker reported better-than-expected earnings and revenue for the fourth quarter, driven by robust demand for its electronics products and a recovery in its water and protection segment.

For the fourth quarter, DuPont reported an adjusted earnings per share of $1.13, surpassing analysts' average expectation of $0.98. The company's revenue came in at $3.09 billion, slightly above the consensus estimate of $3.07 billion. The strong performance was primarily attributed to the continued strength in electronics end-markets and a return to year-over-year top-line growth in the water and medical packaging businesses.

Looking ahead, DuPont raised its full-year 2025 adjusted earnings guidance to a range of $4.30 to $4.40 per share, up from its previous forecast of $3.70 to $3.80 for 2024. The company also expects net sales between $12.8 billion and $12.9 billion for the year, above analysts' expectations. The upbeat guidance reflects DuPont's confidence in the continued recovery of its businesses, particularly in the electronics and water segments.
