Insights

Financial Analyst

Otis Worldwide Corporation's Q1 results exhibit a robust performance in their Service sector, with organic sales surging by 6.5% and a notable margin expansion indicating operational efficiency. The Service segment, indeed the backbone of the company, displays a strengthened revenue stream, which is a positive sign for investors looking for stability in Otis's business model. However, New Equipment orders have receded by 10% and backlogs have slightly declined, signaling potential headwinds in future revenue growth. Nonetheless, the substantial increase in the maintenance portfolio suggests a promising uptick in recurrent revenue. The reported GAAP operating profit margin improvement of 50 basis points and an even higher adjusted operating profit margin expansion of 80 basis points underscore the company’s ability to enhance profitability amidst market fluctuations. These margins reflect the company's adept management of costs and productivity. Despite the headwinds from foreign exchange, which have had an adverse impact, the adjusted EPS growth to $0.88 and a raised EPS outlook implies confidence in the company's future performance. The significant allocation to share repurchases indicates a shareholder-friendly capital allocation policy. The update on the free cash flow, despite a decrease from the previous year, is still robust, facilitating strategic flexibility and shareholder returns. While short-term challenges exist, the long-term outlook appears favorable, especially considering the strategic share repurchase plan and the dividend hike of 14.7%.

Market Research Analyst

Analyzing the broader elevator and escalator industry, Otis's consistent growth in the Service sector aligns with the industry's transition towards predictable revenue models through maintenance and modernization services. This trend capitalizes on the aging global installed base that requires upgrades and continuous maintenance. The growth in Service margin and backlog indicates a solid competitive positioning and an ability to capture market share. Otis's performance in different regions, with a varied response in New Equipment sales, reflects a divergence in regional economic conditions. Concerns over declines in China and the Americas could be indicative of larger macroeconomic issues or competitive dynamics that require close monitoring. However, the company’s resilience in countering these challenges through operational efficiency and cost management is commendable. Investors should consider the implications of persistent foreign exchange headwinds, which could continue to influence reported results. Otis's forward-looking statements about organic sales growth and adjusted operating profits suggest management's confidence in navigating these challenges, potentially offering investors a degree of assurance about the company's strategic direction.

¹Note: When we provide outlook for organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures generally is not available without unreasonable effort. See "Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional information.

Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Otis Worldwide Corporation ("Otis") reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP information presented provides investors with additional useful information, but should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for the related GAAP measures. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures (referenced in this press release) to the corresponding amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP appears in the attached tables. These tables provide additional information as to the items and amounts that have been excluded from the adjusted measures. Below are our non-GAAP financial measures:

Non-GAAP measure	Definition
Organic sales	Represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and other significant items of a non-recurring and/or nonoperational nature ("other significant items"). Management believes organic sales is a useful measure in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.
Adjusted selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense	Represents SG&A expense (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted operating profit	Represents income from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted net interest expense	Represents net interest expense (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the impacts of non-recurring acquisition related financing costs and related net interest expense pending the completion of a transaction.
Adjusted net income	Represents net income attributable to Otis Worldwide Corporation (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items, including related tax effects.
Adjusted earnings per share ("EPS")	Represents diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the per share impact of restructuring and other significant items, including related tax effects.
Adjusted effective tax rate	Represents the effective tax rate (a GAAP measure) adjusted for other significant items and the tax impact of restructuring costs and other significant items.
Constant currency	GAAP financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates ("AFX"). We use the non-GAAP measure "at constant currency" or "CFX" to show changes in our financial results without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under U.S. GAAP, income statement results are translated in U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the period presented. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.
Free cash flow	Represents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity and an additional basis for assessing Otis' ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of common stock and distribution of earnings to shareholders. Free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash flows provided by operating activities, or any other measure of liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted free cash flow	Represents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures, adjusted to exclude certain items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Management believes adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity that provides investors additional information regarding the Company's ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of common stock and distribution of earnings to shareholders. Adjusted free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash flows provided by operating activities, or any other measure of liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes that organic sales, adjusted SG&A, adjusted general corporate expenses and other, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net interest expense, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS and the adjusted effective tax rate are useful measures in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.

When we provide our expectations for adjusted net sales, organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net interest expense, adjusted net income, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted EPS, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected diluted EPS from continuing operations, operating profit, the effective tax rate, net sales and expected cash flow from operations) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

Otis discloses segment operating profit as its measure of segment performance, reconciled to total Otis operating profit. Segment operating profit exclude certain expenses and income that are not allocated to segments (as described above as "Corporate and Unallocated").

Effective in the first quarter of 2024, the measure of segment performance used by Otis' Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") changed and, as a result, Otis' disclosed measure of segment performance (segment operating profit) was updated. The change to segment operating profit aligns with the update to how the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources for the Company's segments, and therefore is our measure of segment profitability.

As a result of the change, restructuring costs and other items not allocated to the operating segments are presented as part of Corporate and Unallocated. The financial information presented herein reflects the impact of the measure of segment performance change for all periods presented.
