CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON) today announced results for the second quarter that met or exceeded the company’s guidance. The company also raised its full-year organic1 growth, segment margin2, and adjusted EPS2 guidance ranges.

The company reported second-quarter year-over-year sales growth of 2% and organic1 sales growth of 3%, led by double-digit organic sales growth in commercial aerospace, process solutions, and UOP. Operating margin expanded 270 basis points to 20.6% and segment margin1 expanded by 150 basis points to 22.4%, with expansion in Safety and Productivity Solutions, Honeywell Building Technologies, and Aerospace. Earnings per share for the second quarter was $2.22, up 21% year over year, and adjusted earnings per share1 was $2.23, up 6% year over year. Operating cash flow was $1.4 billion and free cash flow1 was $1.1 billion, driven by strong net income and improved working capital.

“Honeywell performed exceptionally well in the second quarter, meeting or exceeding guidance for all metrics,” said Vimal Kapur, president and chief executive officer of Honeywell. “Organic1 sales growth was underpinned by double-digit growth in our commercial aerospace, process solutions, and UOP businesses. This marked the ninth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in commercial aerospace, and strength in our overall Aerospace portfolio continues to support Honeywell’s short-term and long-term growth outlook. Our backlog remains at a record level, ending the second quarter at $30.5 billion, up 4% year over year. Our continued focus on commercial excellence enabled us to remain ahead of the inflation curve and expand margins beyond the high end of our guidance range. These operational efforts enabled us to grow adjusted earnings per share1 6% year over year to $2.23 despite a 15-cent non-cash pension headwind. Our strong balance sheet allowed us to execute on our capital deployment strategy with meaningful portfolio updates, deploying $2.1 billion in the quarter to dividends, M&A, share repurchases, and high-return capex. We invested in multiple new technologies and adjacencies utilizing our robust M&A playbook, including completing our acquisition of Compressor Controls Corporation for approximately $700 million.”

Kapur continued, “Honeywell’s Accelerator operating system continues to drive outstanding results and maximize shareowner value as we navigate a challenging macro environment. This operating system, along with continued growth in our key end markets and our technologically differentiated portfolio of solutions, is enabling us to raise our full-year 2023 guidance.”

As a result of the company’s second-quarter performance and management’s outlook for the remainder of the year, Honeywell raised its full-year sales, segment margin2, and adjusted earnings per share2,3 guidance. Full-year sales are now expected to be $36.7 billion to $37.3 billion with organic1 sales growth in the range of 4% to 6%. Segment margin2 is now expected to be in the range of 22.4% to 22.6%, with segment margin expansion2 of 70 to 90 basis points. Adjusted earnings per share2,3 is now expected to be in the range of $9.05 to $9.25, up 5 cents on the low end from the prior guidance range. Operating cash flow is still expected to be in the range of $4.9 billion to $5.3 billion. Free cash flow1 is still expected to be in the range of $3.9 billion to $4.3 billion, or $5.1 billion to $5.5 billion excluding the net impact of settlements signed in the fourth quarter of 2022. A summary of the company’s full-year guidance changes can be found in Table 1.

Second-Quarter Performance

Honeywell sales for the second quarter were up 2% year over year on a reported basis and 3% year over year on an organic1 basis. The second-quarter financial results can be found in Tables 2 and 3.

Aerospace sales for the second quarter were up 16% year over year on an organic1 basis, the fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit organic growth, led by sustained strength in commercial aviation. Commercial aftermarket demand remained strong as flight hours continued to recover in air transport, enabling commercial aviation aftermarket sales growth of over 25%. Commercial original equipment sales grew approximately 15% year over year in the quarter. Defense and space sales grew for a second consecutive quarter as we worked through our robust backlog. Segment margin expanded 120 basis points to 27.7%, driven by commercial excellence and higher volume leverage partially offset by cost inflation.

Honeywell Building Technologies sales for the second quarter were flat on an organic1 basis year over year. Building solutions grew 2% organically as a result of continued growth in services. Building products sales declined 1% organically as growth in our fire offerings was offset by softer volumes in security and building management systems. Segment margin expanded 200 basis points to 25.5% due to commercial excellence and productivity actions, partially offset by cost inflation.

Performance Materials and Technologies sales for the second quarter were up 7% on an organic1 basis year over year. HPS sales grew 11% organically, with strength in projects and in lifecycle solutions and services. UOP grew double digits for the third consecutive quarter, up 11% organically as a result of continued strength in gas processing solutions and refining catalyst shipments. In advanced materials, growth in fluorine products was offset by expected softness in electronic materials, leading to flat organic growth in the quarter. Segment margin contracted 60 basis points to 21.7% as favorable price / cost was more than offset by challenges in advanced materials, including lower volumes and the previously communicated disruption in one of our plants.

Safety and Productivity Solutions sales for the second quarter decreased 21% on an organic1 basis year over year. Sales declines were led by lower volumes in productivity solutions and services and warehouse and workflow solutions, which continues to be impacted by softness in the warehouse automation market despite double-digit growth in the aftermarket services business. Segment margin expanded 410 basis points year over year to 16.7%, driven by productivity actions and commercial excellence, partially offset by lower volume leverage and cost inflation.

1See additional information at the end of this release regarding non-GAAP financial measures.

2Segment margin and adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. Management cannot reliably predict or estimate, without unreasonable effort, the impact and timing on future operating results arising from items excluded from segment margin or adjusted EPS. We therefore, do not present a guidance range, or a reconciliation to, the nearest GAAP financial measures of operating margin or EPS.

3Adjusted EPS and adjusted EPS V% guidance excludes items identified in the non-GAAP reconciliation of adjusted EPS at the end of this release, and any potential future one-time items that we cannot reliably predict or estimate such as pension mark-to-market.

Appendix

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following information provides definitions and reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release to which this reconciliation is attached to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most comparable GAAP measure. Certain measures presented on a non-GAAP basis represent the impact of adjusting items net of tax. The tax-effect for adjusting items is determined individually and on a case-by-case basis. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes.

Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Investors are urged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Honeywell’s business.

We define organic sales percentage as the year-over-year change in reported sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the impact on sales from foreign currency translation and acquisitions, net of divestitures, for the first 12 months following the transaction date. We believe this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

A quantitative reconciliation of reported sales percent change to organic sales percent change has not been provided for forward-looking measures of organic sales percent change because management cannot reliably predict or estimate, without unreasonable effort, the fluctuations in global currency markets that impact foreign currency translation, nor is it reasonable for management to predict the timing, occurrence and impact of acquisition and divestiture transactions, all of which could significantly impact our reported sales percent change.

Includes repositioning, asbestos, environmental expenses, equity income adjustment, and other charges. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, other charges include $2 million of benefit due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, other charges include $67 million related to inventory reserves, the write-down of other assets, and employee severance, related to the initial suspension and wind down of our businesses and operations in Russia. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, other charges include an expense of $250 million related to reserves against outstanding accounts receivables, contract assets, and inventory, as well as the write-down of other assets and employee severance related to the initial suspension and wind down of our businesses and operations in Russia. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, other charges include $6 million and $41 million, respectively, of incremental long-term contract labor cost inefficiencies due to severe supply chain disruptions (attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic) relating to the warehouse automation business within the Safety and Productivity Solutions segment. These costs include incurred amounts and provisions for anticipated losses recognized when total estimated costs at completion for certain of the business’ long-term contracts exceeded total estimated revenue. These certain costs represent unproductive labor costs due to unexpected supplier delays and the resulting downstream installation issues, demobilization and remobilization of contract workers, and resolution of contractor disputes.

(3)

Included in Cost of products and services sold and Selling, general and administrative expenses.

We define segment profit, on an overall Honeywell basis, as operating income, excluding stock compensation expense, pension and other postretirement service costs, and repositioning and other charges. We define segment profit margin, on an overall Honeywell basis, as segment profit divided by net sales. We believe these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

A quantitative reconciliation of operating income to segment profit, on an overall Honeywell basis, has not been provided for all forward-looking measures of segment profit and segment profit margin included herein. Management cannot reliably predict or estimate, without unreasonable effort, the impact and timing on future operating results arising from items excluded from segment profit, particularly pension mark-to-market expense as it is dependent on macroeconomic factors, such as interest rates and the return generated on invested pension plan assets. The information that is unavailable to provide a quantitative reconciliation could have a significant impact on our reported financial results. To the extent quantitative information becomes available without unreasonable effort in the future, and closer to the period to which the forward-looking measures pertain, a reconciliation of operating income to segment profit will be included within future filings.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, adjusted earnings per share utilizes weighted average shares of approximately 670.2 million and 685.0 million, respectively. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, adjusted earnings per share utilizes weighted average shares of approximately 683.1 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, expected earnings per share utilizes weighted average shares of approximately 670 million.

(2)

Pension mark-to-market expense uses a blended tax rate of 16%, net of tax benefit of $83 million, for 2022.

(3)

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the adjustments were expenses of $50 million and $45 million, respectively, without tax benefit, due to an expense related to UOP matters.

(4)

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the adjustment was $1 million, without tax benefit. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the adjustment was $126 million, without tax benefit, to exclude charges and the accrual of reserves related to foreign exchange revaluation, inventory reserves, the write-down of other assets, impairment of property, plant and equipment, employee severance, and a tax valuation allowance related to the initial suspension and wind down of our businesses and operations in Russia. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the adjustment was $297 million, without tax benefit, to exclude charges and the accrual of reserves related to outstanding accounts receivable, contract assets, impairment of intangible assets, foreign exchange revaluation, inventory reserves, the write-down of other assets, impairment of property, plant and equipment, employee severance, and called guarantees related to the initial suspension and wind down of our businesses and operations in Russia.

(5)

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the adjustment was $22 million, without tax expense, due to the gain on sale of Russian entities.

(6)

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the adjustments were $8 million and $260 million, net of tax of benefit of $3 million and $82 million, respectively, due to the net expense related to the NARCO Buyout and HWI Sale.

(7)

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the adjustment is the decline of $97 million of pension ongoing income compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, net of tax expense of $26 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, the adjustment is the forecasted decline of approximately $370 million of pension ongoing income between 2022 and 2023, net of estimated tax expense of approximately $100 million.

We define adjusted earnings per share as diluted earnings per share adjusted to exclude various charges as listed above. We define adjusted earnings per share excluding pension headwind as adjusted earnings per share adjusted for an actual or forecasted decline of pension ongoing income between the comparative periods in 2022 and 2023. We believe adjusted earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share excluding pension headwind are measures that are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends. For forward-looking information, management cannot reliably predict or estimate, without unreasonable effort, the pension mark-to-market expense as it is dependent on macroeconomic factors, such as interest rates and the return generated on invested pension plan assets. We therefore do not include an estimate for the pension mark-to-market expense. Based on economic and industry conditions, future developments, and other relevant factors, these assumptions are subject to change.

We believe that free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by operations that will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions, pay dividends, repurchase stock, or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. This measure can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.
