Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
As previously announced on Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2017, FMC Corporation (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that it had signed a definitive agreement with E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company ("DuPont") to acquire a significant portion of DuPont’s Crop Protection business and research and development organization. Additionally, DuPont will acquire FMC Health and Nutrition, excluding its Omega-3 business, and receive $1.2 billion in cash, subject to customary adjustments and other terms and conditions set forth in the definitive agreement. In March 2017, as a result of the expected transaction with DuPont, our FMC Health and Nutrition segment was classified as a discontinued operation.
