DuPont Co., the third-biggest U.S. chemical maker, won control of Danisco A/S after getting 92.2 percent of the Danish food-ingredient maker’s shares in its 33.4 billion-krone ($6.36 billion) tender offer.

All conditions for completing the offer of 700 kroner a share have been fulfilled, Wilmington, Delaware-based DuPont said today in a statement. DuPont will delist the Copenhagen-based company’s shares next month and incorporate its financial results effective with the current quarter, Michael Hanretta, a DuPont spokesman, said by telephone.
