In the company’s own words

What this company does

FMC Corporation is a global agricultural sciences company dedicated to providing farmers with innovative solutions that increase the productivity and resilience of their land. We operate in a single distinct business segment. We develop, market and sell all three major classes of crop protection chemicals (insecticides, herbicides and fungicides) as well as biologicals, crop nutrition, and seed treatment products, which we group as plant health. FMC’s innovative crop protection solutions help growers produce food, feed, fiber and fuel for an expanding world population while adapting to a changing environment. FMC is committed to discovering new insecticide, herbicide, and fungicide active ingredients, product formulations and pioneering technologies that are consistently better for the planet.

We are a tier-one leader in the agrochemicals/crop protection market. Our position in the market is driven by our technology and innovation, as well as our geographic balance and crop diversity.

As announced in February 2026, the FMC Board of Directors has authorized the exploration of strategic options, including but not limited to, the sale of the company to unlock shareholder value and ensure that the growth and core portfolios are best positioned for long-term success. FMC's four new active ingredients, along with its broader development pipeline, are unique and transformative. The company believes there is significant opportunity to enhance shareholder value by accelerating growth and delivering enhanced financial results with additional investment in these technologies. The strategic review is at a preliminary stage, and there can be no assurance that the process will result in any transaction.

FMC remains focused on executing our 2026 operational priorities, which include strengthening the balance sheet, improving the competitiveness of our core portfolio, managing our post-patent Rynaxypyr active strategy and supporting growth of new active ingredients. We aim to strengthen our balance sheet by paying down debt through asset sales and licensing agreements, including the sale of our India commercial business. In July 2025, the Board of Directors approved a plan to divest the Company’s commercial business in India in response to ongoing commercial challenges in the country. FMC plans to continue to actively participate in the India market through a supply agreement with the eventual buyer of the business for its patented and data-protected portfolio, ranging from new diamide technologies to active ingredients and biologicals. The Company will continue its active ingredients manufacturing operations in India. The sale process is underway and is expected to conclude in 2026. Further priorities focus on improving the competitiveness of our core portfolio and managing the post-patent transition for Rynaxypyr active. We will also continue advancing commercialization of new active ingredients, including Isoflex active, fluindapyr, Dodhylex active and rimisoxafen.
