CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON) today announced results for the third quarter, which met or exceeded the company's guidance. The company also raised the low end of its full-year organic growth and adjusted EPS guidance^2,3 ranges and raised its full-year segment margin guidance range.²

The company reported third quarter sales growth of 6% and organic sales growth¹ of 9%, or 10% excluding the impact of the wind down of operations in Russia,⁴ with double-digit organic sales growth in Honeywell Building Technologies, Performance Materials and Technologies, and Aerospace. Operating margin expanded by 90 basis points to 19.5%, or 110 basis points excluding the year-over-year impact of Quantinuum. Segment margin¹ expanded by 60 basis points to 21.8%, or 90 basis points excluding the year-over-year impact of Quantinuum,¹ led by 250 basis points of segment margin expansion in Safety and Productivity Solutions. Earnings per share was $2.28, up 27% year over year. Adjusted earnings per share¹ was $2.25, up 11% year over year and 5 cents above the high end of the company's guidance range. Operating cash flow was $2.1 billion, up 86% year over year, with an operating cash flow margin of 23.3%. Free cash flow¹ was $1.9 billion, up 108% year over year, with a free cash flow margin¹ of 21.2%, driven by working capital as a result of improved receivables and inventory. 

"Honeywell executed exceptionally well in the third quarter, meeting or exceeding guidance for all metrics," said Darius Adamczyk, chairman and chief executive officer of Honeywell. "Despite ongoing challenges across supply chains, we grew sales by 6% on a reported basis and 9% organically,¹ with strong double-digit growth in our advanced materials, commercial aerospace, and building products businesses. Our backlog remains near record levels, closing the third quarter at $29.1 billion,⁵ up 9% year over year, and providing us with confidence in our demand expectations against an increasingly uncertain macroeconomic backdrop. We continued to reap the benefits of our Honeywell Digital transformation investments made over the past few years and we leveraged these digital tools to drive agile commercial and operational actions, which enabled us to stay ahead of the inflation curve, expand margins, and beat the high end of our adjusted EPS guidance. We also executed on our capital deployment strategy, deploying $1.2 billion in the quarter, including $0.4 billion of share repurchases, and raising our dividend for the 13th time over 12 consecutive years."

Adamczyk continued, "The Honeywell playbook continues to deliver outstanding results as we successfully maneuver through a challenged operating environment. These operating principles, combined with our attractive end-market exposures and differentiated portfolio of solutions, will allow us to maintain resiliency and continue successfully navigating the current economic crosscurrents. The third quarter was a strong performance for Honeywell, and I remain confident that our best quarters lie ahead."

As a result of the company's third-quarter performance and management's outlook for the remainder of the year, full-year sales are now expected to be in the range of $35.4 billion to $35.7 billion, up 6% to 7% organically, or up 8% to 9% excluding the one-point impact of COVID-driven mask sales declines and one-point impact of lost Russian sales. Segment margin expansion² is now expected to be in the range of 60 to 80 basis points, including an approximate (30) basis point impact from investments in the Quantinuum business. Adjusted earnings per share^2,3 is now expected to be in the range of $8.70 to $8.80. Operating cash flow is expected to be in the range of $5.2 billion to $5.6 billion and free cash flow¹ is expected to be $4.7 billion to $5.1 billion. A summary of the company's full-year guidance changes can be found in Table 1.

Third-Quarter Performance

Honeywell sales for the third quarter were up 6% year over year on a reported basis and 9% year over year on an organic basis.¹ The third-quarter financial results can be found in Tables 2 and 3.

Aerospace sales for the third quarter were up 10% year over year on an organic basis¹ led by growth in commercial aviation. Commercial aftermarket demand remained strong as flight hours continued to recover, with both air transport aftermarket and business and general aviation aftermarket sales growing over 20% organically. Commercial original equipment sales increased 30% year over year in the third quarter, primarily driven by higher shipset deliveries to air transport customers. Increased commercial aviation sales were partially offset by lower defense volumes. Segment margin expanded 40 basis points to 27.5%, led by commercial excellence partially offset by cost inflation.

Honeywell Building Technologies sales for the third quarter were up 19% on an organic basis¹ year over year including 23% organic sales growth in the building products portfolio. Building solutions also grew double digits organically in the quarter, led by increased project volumes. Segment margin expanded 60 basis points to 24.1% due to commercial excellence, partially offset by cost inflation.

Performance Materials and Technologies sales for the third quarter were up 14% on an organic basis¹ year over year despite an approximate 3% headwind from Russia. Sales growth was led by advanced materials, which grew more than 30% organically due to continued pricing actions and improved volumes. Sales strength was also driven by refining catalyst shipments and thermal solutions, both of which were up double digits in the quarter. This growth was partially offset by lower equipment volumes in UOP and lost Russian sales.² Orders increased double digits year over year, headlined by strength in fluorine products within advanced materials. Segment margin expanded 40 basis points to 22.6%, primarily due to commercial excellence, partially offset by cost inflation.

Safety and Productivity Solutions sales for the third quarter decreased 4% on an organic basis¹ year over year. Strength in the advanced sensing and gas detection portions of our sensing and safety technologies business and growth in productivity solutions and services was offset by lower volumes in warehouse and workflow solutions and personal protective equipment. Segment margin reached the highest level since 4Q18, expanding 250 basis points year over year to 15.7%, primarily driven by commercial excellence and favorable business mix, partially offset by cost inflation.

In July, the safety and retail and advanced sensing technologies business units were aligned into a new business unit within the Safety and Productivity Solutions segment named sensing and safety technologies, which we will use for reporting purposes going forward. We recast historical periods to reflect this realignment.

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.

⁴Lost Russian sales is defined as the year-over-year decline in sales due to the decision to wind down our businesses and operations in Russia. This does not reflect management's estimate of 2022 Russian sales absent the decision to wind down our businesses and operations in Russia.

⁵Effective March 31, 2022, performance obligations exclude contracts with customers related to Russia as collectability is not reasonably assured. Backlog V% includes prior year revisions to reflect a prior period correction, which had no impact on our results of operations.

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 metrics should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most comparable GAAP measure. Certain metrics 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. Included below are reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. 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 percent 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.

We define organic sales growth excluding lost Russian sales as organic sales growth excluding any sales attributable to the substantial suspension and wind down of operations in Russia. We define organic sales growth excluding COVID-driven mask sales and lost Russian sales as organic sales growth excluding any sales attributable to COVID-driven masks and substantial suspension and wind down of operations in Russia. We believe organic sales growth excluding lost Russian sales, and organic sales growth excluding COVID-driven mask sales and lost Russian sales are 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, organic sales percent change excluding lost Russian sales or organic sales percent change excluding COVID-driven mask sales and lost Russian sales 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.

(1)		Included in Selling, general and administrative expenses.
(2)		Includes repositioning, asbestos, environmental expenses, equity income adjustment, and other charges. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, other charges include a benefit of $16 million primarily related to a favorable foreign exchange revaluation on an intercompany loan with a Russian affiliate, in addition to the recovery of outstanding accounts receivable previously reserved against, partially offset by additional charges for called guarantees, related to the initial suspension and wind down of our businesses and operations in Russia. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, other charges include $17 million and $105 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.
(4)		For the three months ended September 30, 2021, and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, Quantinuum operating loss and segment loss includes the operating loss and segment loss of Honeywell Quantum Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Honeywell, prior to the November 29, 2021, combination of Honeywell Quantum Solutions and Cambridge Quantum Computing, resulting in the formation of Quantinuum.

 

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 excluding Quantinuum as segment profit excluding segment profit attributable to Quantinuum. We define segment profit margin, on an overall Honeywell basis, as segment profit divided by net sales. We define segment profit margin excluding Quantinuum, as segment profit excluding Quantinuum divided by net sales excluding Quantinuum. We believe these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

We define expansion in segment profit margin percentage as the year-over-year increase in segment profit margin percentage. We define expansion in segment profit margin percentage excluding Quantinuum as the year-over-year increase in segment profit margin percentage excluding Quantinuum. 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 segment profit and segment profit excluding the impact of Quantinuum, on an overall Honeywell basis, to operating income has not been provided for all forward-looking measures of segment profit and segment 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. 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 segment profit to operating income will be included within future filings.

(1)		For the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, adjusted earnings per share utilizes weighted average shares of approximately 679.6 million and 698.9 million, respectively. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, adjusted earnings per share utilizes weighted average shares of approximately 700.4 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, expected earnings per share utilizes weighted average shares of 683 million.
(2)		Pension mark-to-market expense uses a blended tax rate of 25%, net of tax expense of $10 million for 2021.
(3)		For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, the adjustment was $19 million, net of tax expense of $5 million, due to changes in fair value for Garrett equity securities.
(4)		For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, the adjustment was $7 million, without tax benefit, due to a non-cash charge associated with the reduction in value of reimbursement receivables following Garrett's emergence from bankruptcy on April 30, 2021.
(5)		For the three months ended September 30, 2021, and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, the adjustments were $4 million and $76 million, respectively, net of tax expense of $1 million and $19 million, respectively, due to the gain on sale of the retail footwear business.
(6)		For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the adjustment was $50 million, without tax benefit, due to an expense related to UOP matters. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, the adjustment was $160 million, without tax benefit, due to an expense related to UOP matters.
(7)		For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the adjustment was $16 million, without tax benefit, primarily related to favorable foreign exchange revaluation on an intercompany loan with a Russian affiliate, in addition to the recovery of outstanding accounts receivable previously reserved against, partially offset by additional charges for called guarantees, 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 $293 million, including a tax valuation allowance benefit of $2 million, to exclude charges and the accrual of reserves related to outstanding accounts receivable and 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, called guarantees, and a tax valuation allowance related to the initial suspension and wind down of our businesses and operations in Russia.
(8)		For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the adjustment was $10 million, without tax benefit, due to the gain on sale of a Russian entity.

 

We define adjusted earnings per share as diluted earnings per share adjusted to exclude various charges as listed above. We believe adjusted earnings per share is a measure that is 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.

(1)		For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the adjustment was $2 million, without tax benefit, changes in fair value for Garrett equity securities.
(2)		For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the adjustment was $4 million, net of tax expense of $1 million, due to a gain on sale of the retail footwear business.
(3)		For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the adjustment was $160 million, without tax benefit, due to an expense related to UOP matters.

(5)		For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the adjustment was $10 million, without tax benefit, due to the gain on sale of a Russian entity.

 

We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less cash expenditures for property, plant and equipment plus cash receipts from Garrett. We define adjusted net income attributable to Honeywell as net income attributable to Honeywell adjusted to exclude various items as listed above. We define adjusted free cash flow conversion as free cash flow divided by adjusted net income attributable to Honeywell.

We believe that free cash flow is a non-GAAP metric 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 metric 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.
