Adjusted segment EBITA was $260 million, down 20% versus the prior year. Adjusted segment EBITA margin of 10.7% declined 400 basis points versus the prior year as the benefit of the SG&A/COGS actions were more than offset by lower absorption related to supply chain challenges and labor constraints.

Adjusted segment EBITA was $85 million, up 1% versus the prior year. Adjusted segment EBITA margin of 12.8% expanded 90 basis points versus the prior year as positive price/cost and the benefit of SG&A/COGS actions more than offset lower volume leverage resulting from the Covid-19 lockdowns in China and continued Fx headwinds.

Sales in the quarter of $2.6 billion increased 6% versus the prior year. Organic sales grew 9% versus the prior year driven by strong pricing and broad-based demand for Commercial and Residential HVAC and Fire Detection products, partially offset by the lower volumes due to the supply chain constraints and the Covid-19 lockdowns in China.

Adjusted segment EBITA was $570 million, up 11% versus the prior year. Adjusted segment EBITA margin of 22.2% expanded 110 basis points versus the prior year as positive price/cost, positive mix, and the benefit of SG&A/COGS actions were partially offset by supply chain inefficiencies and continued Fx headwinds.

(1) The Company's press release contains financial information regarding adjusted net sales, total segment EBITA, adjusted segment EBITA and adjusted segment EBITA margins, which are non-GAAP performance measures. The Company's definition of adjusted net sales and adjusted segment EBITA excludes special items because these revenues and/or costs are not considered to be directly related to the underlying operating performance of its businesses. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding the ongoing operations and business trends of the Company.

A reconciliation of total segment EBITA to income from continuing operations is shown earlier within this footnote. The following is the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 reconciliation of net sales, total segment EBITA and segment EBITA margin as reported to adjusted segment EBITA and adjusted segment EBITA margin (unaudited):

(2) Adjusted Corporate expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 excludes $9 million of transaction/separation costs.

(3) Adjusted amortization of intangible assets for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 excludes $13 million of nonrecurring intangible asset amortization related to Silent-Aire purchase accounting. Adjusted amortization of intangible assets for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 excludes $3 million of nonrecurring asset amortization related to Silent-Aire purchase accounting.

(4) The three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 exclude the net mark-to-market losses on restricted asbestos investments and pension and postretirement plan assets of $126 million and $158 million, respectively. The three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 exclude the net mark-to-market gains on restricted asbestos investments and pension and postretirement plan assets of $66 million and $296 million, respectively.

(5) Restructuring and impairment costs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 of $121 million and $554 million, respectively, are excluded from the adjusted non-GAAP results. The restructuring actions and impairment costs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 are related primarily to the impairment of assets associated with businesses classified as held for sale, workforce reductions and other asset impairments. Restructuring and impairment costs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 of $79 million and $175 million, respectively, are excluded from the adjusted non-GAAP results. The restructuring actions and impairment costs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 are related primarily to workforce reductions and asset impairments.

(6) Management defines earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) as income (loss) from continuing operations before net financing charges, income taxes and noncontrolling interests. EBIT is a non-GAAP performance measure. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors in understanding the ongoing operations and business trends of the Company. A reconciliation of EBIT to income from continuing operations is shown earlier within this footnote.

(7) Adjusted income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2022 excludes tax benefits related to net mark-to-market losses of $33 million, restructuring and impairment costs of $15 million and transaction/separation costs of $1 million, partially offset by tax provisions related to APB23 adjustments attributable to a business classified as held for sale of $8 million. Adjusted income tax provision for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 excludes tax benefits related to net mark-to-market losses of $40 million, restructuring and impairment costs of $29 million, Silent-Aire nonrecurring intangible asset amortization of $3 million, transaction/separation costs of $1 million and charges related to the suspension of operations in Russia of $1 million, partially offset by tax provisions related to APB23 adjustments attributable to businesses classified as held for sale of $21 million. Adjusted income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2021 excludes tax provisions from net mark-to-market gains of $17 million, partially offset by tax benefits related to restructuring and impairment costs of $15 million and tax benefits related to Silent-Aire nonrecurring purchase accounting of $1 million. Adjusted income tax provision for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 excludes tax provisions from a Mexico valuation allowance adjustment of $105 million and net mark-to-market gains of $75 million, partially offset by tax benefits related to restructuring and impairment costs of $30 million and tax benefits related to Silent-Aire nonrecurring purchase accounting of $1 million.

(8) Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 excludes $5 million impact from restructuring and impairment costs.

The Company has presented forward-looking statements regarding adjusted EPS, organic revenue growth, adjusted segment EBITA margin and free cash flow conversion, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts, expenses, or income from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period, including but not limited to the high variability of the net mark-to-market adjustments and the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Our fiscal 2022 full year and fourth quarter guidance for organic revenue growth also excludes the effect of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available and management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2022 GAAP financial results.

 

2.  Diluted Earnings Per Share Reconciliation

The Company's press release contains financial information regarding adjusted earnings per share, which is a non-GAAP performance measure. The adjusting items include net mark-to-market adjustments, restructuring and impairment costs, Silent-Aire other nonrecurring costs, Silent-Aire earn-out adjustment, charges related to the suspension of operations in Russia, Power Solutions divestiture reserve adjustment, transaction/separation costs and discrete tax items. The Company excludes these items because they are not considered to be directly related to the underlying operating performance of the Company. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding the ongoing operations and business trends of the Company.

4. Free Cash Flow Conversion

The Company's press release contains financial information regarding free cash flow and free cash flow conversion, which are non-GAAP performance measures. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by adjusted net income attributable to JCI. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding the strength of the Company and its ability to generate cash. These non-GAAP measures 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.

The following is the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 reconciliation of free cash flow and free cash flow conversion for continuing operations (unaudited):

 

	Three Months Ended								Nine Months Ended
(in millions)	June 30, 2022				June 30, 2021				June 30, 2022				June 30, 2021
Cash provided (used) by operating activities from continuing   operations	$                          487				$                           862				$                            811				$                          2,022
Capital expenditures	(170)				(127)				(430)				(324)
Reported free cash flow	$                          317				$                           735				$                            381				$                          1,698
Adjusted net income from continuing operations
attributable to JCI	$                          594				$                           598				$                         1,415				$                          1,282
Adjusted free cash flow conversion			53 %				123 %				27 %				132 %

 

5.  Net Debt to EBITDA

The Company provides financial information regarding net debt to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure. The Company believes the total net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio is useful to understanding the Company's financial condition as it provides a review of the extent to which the Company relies on external debt financing for its funding and is a measure of risk to its shareholders. The following is the June 30, 2022 calculation of net debt to adjusted EBITDA (unaudited):

 

(in millions)	June 30, 2022
Short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt	$                       2,298
Long-term debt	7,194
Total debt	9,492
Less: cash and cash equivalents	1,506
Total net debt	$                       7,986
Last twelve months adjusted EBITDA	$                       3,617
Total net debt to adjusted EBITDA	2.2x

 

The following is the last twelve months ended June 30, 2022 reconciliation of income from continuing operations to adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP performance measures (unaudited):

 

(in millions)	Last Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2022
Income from continuing operations	$                       1,230
Income tax provision	680
Net financing charges	200
EBIT	2,110
Adjusting items:
Net mark-to-market adjustments	52
Restructuring and impairment costs	621
Silent-Aire other nonrecurring costs			26
Silent-Aire earn-out adjustment			(43)
Charges attributable to the suspension of operations in Russia	11
Transaction/separation costs			9
Adjusted EBIT (1)	2,786
Depreciation and amortization	831
Adjusted EBITDA (1)	$                       3,617

(1) The Company's definition of adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBITDA excludes special items because these costs are not considered to be directly related to the underlying operating performance of its businesses. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors in understanding the ongoing operations and business trends of the Company.

 

6.

Trade Working Capital as a Percentage of Net Sales

The Company provides financial information regarding trade working capital as a percentage of net sales, which is a non-GAAP performance measure. Trade working capital is defined as current assets less current liabilities, excluding cash, short-term debt, the current portion of long-term debt, the current portion of assets and liabilities held for sale, accrued compensation and benefits, and other current assets and liabilities.  Management believes this non-GAAP measure, which excludes financing-related items, non-trade related items and businesses to be divested, is a more useful measurement of the Company's operating performance. The following is the June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 calculation of trade working capital as a percentage of net sales (unaudited):

 

(in millions)	June 30, 2022				June 30, 2021
Current assets	$                      11,559				$                      10,310
Current liabilities	(11,883)				(9,285)

Less:  other current assets	(1,235)				(1,128)
Add:  short-term debt	2,081				265
Add:  current portion of long-term debt	217				196
Add:  accrued compensation and benefits	874				996
Add:  liabilities held for sale	261				-
Add:  other current liabilities	2,479				2,460
Trade working capital	$                       2,453				$                        2,364
Last twelve months net sales	$                      24,966				$                      23,230
Trade working capital as a percentage of net sales	9.8 %				10.2 %

 

7.  Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations before consideration of net mark-to-market adjustments, restructuring and impairment costs, Silent-Aire nonrecurring intangible asset amortization and purchase accounting, charges related to the suspension of operations in Russia, transaction/separation costs and discrete tax items for the three and nine months ending June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 is approximately 13.5%.

 

8.  Restructuring and Impairment Costs

The three months ended June 30, 2022 include restructuring and impairment costs of $121 million related primarily to the impairment of assets associated with a business classified as held for sale, workforce reductions and other asset impairments. The nine months ended June 30, 2022 include restructuring and impairment costs of $554 million related primarily to the impairment of assets associated with businesses classified as held for sale, workforce reductions and other asset impairments.
