      "Honeywell delivered another strong quarter of earnings growth and exceptional margin expansion," said Honeywell Chairman and CEO Dave Cote.  "On 1% core organic sales growth, segment margins expanded 190 basis points driven by new product introductions, our key process initiatives including HOS Gold, continued productivity improvements, and the benefits from ongoing restructuring projects.  In a slower growth environment, we generated earnings growth of 10% when normalized for tax, reaching the high end of our EPS guidance range. This included $34 million in net restructuring charges in the quarter, which position us for continued long-term margin expansion. In addition, Free Cash Flow for the quarter of $1.4 billion increased 43%, with Free Cash Flow conversion of 110%.  We are confirming our full-year EPS guidance at approximately $6.10, representing estimated full-year earnings growth of approximately 10% and our sixth consecutive year of double-digit earnings growth. We also announced the $5.1 billion acquisition of Elster in July, and are on track to close in the first quarter of 2016.  Looking ahead to 2016, we're planning for a continuation of the slow growth macro environment, but we expect to deliver continued margin expansion and earnings outperformance driven by our balanced portfolio, relentless seed planting in new products and technologies, High Growth Region penetration, over $300 million of funded restructuring, and the deployment of our key process initiatives."

      • Sales for the third quarter were up 2% on a core organic basis, and were down 2% reported driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency and the Friction Materials divestiture.  Commercial OE sales were up 4% on a core organic basis (3% reported) driven by strong Business and General Aviation (BGA) engine shipments.  Commercial Aftermarket sales were up 3% on a core organic basis (2% reported) driven by continued growth in repair and overhaul activities, partially offset by a decline in RMU (Retrofit, Modifications, and Upgrades) sales in BGA.  Defense & Space sales increased 2% on a core organic basis (1% reported) driven by strong international growth, partially offset by lower sales to the U.S. government.  Transportation Systems sales were up 1% on a core organic basis driven by new platform launches and higher gas turbo penetration on passenger vehicles, partially offset by lower commercial vehicle production.  TS sales were down 16% reported due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency and the Friction Materials divestiture.
      • Segment profit was up 5% and segment margins expanded 150 bps to 21.8%, driven by commercial excellence, productivity net of inflation, foreign currency hedges, and the favorable impact of the Friction Materials divestiture, partially offset by the margin impact of higher OE shipments and continued investments for growth.

      • Sales for the third quarter were up 3% on a core organic basis and down 3% reported driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency.  Energy, Safety, and Security (ESS) sales increased 4% on a core organic basis (down 1% reported) driven primarily by continued growth in Security and Fire (HSF) and Sensing & Productivity Solutions (S&PS).  Building Solutions & Distribution (BSD) sales increased 1% on a core organic basis (down 6% reported) driven by continued strength in Americas Distribution partially offset by slower Building Solutions backlog conversion.
      • Segment profit was up 5% and segment margins expanded 130 bps to 17.2% driven by productivity net of inflation, higher volume, and commercial excellence, partially offset by continued investments for growth. 
      • On July 28, 2015, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire the Elster Division of Melrose Industries plc, a leading provider of thermal gas solutions for commercial, industrial, and residential heating systems and gas, water, and electricity meters, including smart meters and software and data analytics solutions, for approximately $5.1 billion.  Elster also manufactures flow computers and regulators for the gas industry.  Elster had reported 2014 revenues of $1.7 billion.  We anticipate the acquisition will close in the first quarter of 2016, pending regulatory review.  Upon closing, we expect that Elster will primarily be integrated into our Automation and Control Solutions segment.

      • Sales were down 3% on a core organic basis and down 13% reported driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency and lower raw materials pass-through pricing in Resins & Chemicals.  The decrease in core organic sales was primarily driven by lower UOP gas processing, equipment and licensing sales, and lower volume in HPS associated with projects and field products weakness, partially offset by higher UOP catalyst shipments and higher volume in Fluorine Products.
      • Segment profit was up 4% and segment margins increased 330 bps to 20.8%, driven by productivity net of inflation, commercial excellence, and the favorable impact of raw materials pass-through pricing in Resins & Chemicals (pricing model protects profit dollars), partially offset by continued investments for growth.

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that we or our management intends, expects, projects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based upon certain assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current economic and industry conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe to be appropriate. The forward-looking statements included in this release are also subject to a number of material risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to economic, competitive, governmental, and technological factors affecting our operations, markets, products, services and prices.

We identify the principal risks and uncertainties that affect our performance in our Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

      *Throughout this press release, core organic sales growth refers to reported sales growth less the impacts from foreign currency translation, M&A and raw materials pass-through pricing in the Resins & Chemicals business of PMT. The raw materials pricing impact is excluded in instances where raw materials costs are passed through to customers, which drives fluctuations in selling prices not tied to volume growth.  A reconciliation of core organic sales growth to reported sales growth is provided in the attached financial tables.

      We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less cash expenditures for property, plant and equipment.






      We believe that this metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business 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, and to 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 business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.

      Raw materials pricing in R&C

      5%



      Core organic sales growth

      (3)%





      Throughout this press release, core organic sales growth refers to reported sales growth less the impacts from foreign currency translation, M&A and raw materials pass-through pricing in the Resins & Chemicals business of PMT. The raw materials pricing impact is excluded in instances where raw materials costs are passed through to customers, which drives fluctuations in selling prices not tied to volume growth.


      We believe core organic sales growth is a measure that is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

      Free cash flow



      $      3,930















      We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less cash expenditures for property, plant and equipment.







      We believe that this metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business 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, and to 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 business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.
