Before the opening bell on Tuesday, DuPont (DD) released its first quarter financial results. Here’s what the results mean for mutual fund investors.

Inside DD’s Results

Earnings

DuPont (DD) reported earnings of $1.03 billion, or $1.13 per share, down from $1.44 billion, or $1.54 per share, a year ago. Adjusted EPS came in at $1.34, above analysts’ estimate of $1.31.

Revenue
