Companies mentioned in this article: United Technologies Corp.

HARTFORD, Conn., Jan. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX) today reported full year 2012 earnings per share of $5.35 and net income attributable to common shareowners of $4.8 billion, both essentially flat versus prior year. The acquisition of Goodrich Corporation was $0.06 dilutive to EPS. Sales of $57.7 billion were 4 percent above prior year including net acquisitions (6 points) and adverse foreign currency translation (2 points). For the year, organic sales were flat and segment operating margin was 14.0 percent. Adjusted for restructuring and one-time items, segment operating margin of 14.8 percent was 60 basis points lower than prior year, including dilution from the acquisition of Goodrich Corporation. Cash flow from operations of $6.6 billion, less capital expenditures of $1.4 billion, exceeded net income attributable to common shareowners.

"2012 was a transformational year for United Technologies with the successful completion of the Goodrich and IAE transactions, and the divestiture of several non-core assets," said Louis Chenevert, UTC Chairman & Chief Executive Officer. "We reshaped our portfolio to focus on our core markets. We also invested $2.4 billion in developing game changing technologies and nearly $600 million on restructuring our operations to address a challenging economic environment."

Fourth quarter 2012 earnings per share of $1.04 were down 27 percent from the year ago quarter. Results for the quarter included $0.25 per share of restructuring and one-time charges. The prior year quarter included $0.01 of net favorable one-time items in excess of restructuring charges. Before these items, earnings per share decreased $0.12 or 9 percent year over year. In addition, results included a $0.12 charge recorded at Sikorsky related to the Canadian Maritime Helicopter program. Foreign currency translation and hedges at Pratt & Whitney Canada had an adverse impact of $0.02 in the quarter.

Sales of $16.4 billion for the quarter were 14 percent above prior year. Net acquisitions provided 15 points of growth. Organic sales were flat and foreign currency translation had an adverse impact of 1 point. Fourth quarter segment operating margin was 11.4 percent. Adjusted for restructuring costs and net one-time items, segment operating margin of 13.3 percent was 200 basis points lower than prior year, primarily due to the impact of the acquisition of Goodrich Corporation and the Canadian Maritime Helicopter program charge at Sikorsky. Cash flow from operations of $2.0 billion less capital expenditures of $641 million exceeded net income attributable to common shareowners of $945 million.

"We closed the year better than we had anticipated," said Chenevert. "Cash generation was strong both in the quarter and for the full year, and we delivered on our commitment to pay down approximately one-third of the Goodrich acquisition debt."

New equipment orders at Otis were up 12 percent over the year ago fourth quarter including adverse foreign exchange of 1 point, driven by strong order growth in China. North American Residential HVAC new equipment orders at UTC Climate, Controls & Security grew 20 percent. Large commercial engine spares orders were up 46 percent at Pratt & Whitney including the impact from the incremental International Aero Engines share. Organically, commercial spares orders were down 8 percent at Pratt & Whitney and down 4 percent at UTC Aerospace Systems.

"With broad based improvement in our order trends, and a continued focus on integration and execution, we remain confident in our ability to deliver 2013 earnings per share of $5.85 to $6.15," Chenevert added. "We continue to expect sales between $64 and $65 billion and cash flow from operations less capital expenditures to equal or exceed net income attributable to common shareowners in 2013."

The following page provides segment net sales, operating profits and operating profit margins as adjusted for the aforementioned restructuring costs and non-recurring items. Management believes these adjusted results more accurately portray the ongoing operational performance and fundamentals of the underlying businesses. The amount and timing of restructuring costs and non-recurring activity can vary substantially from period to period with no assurances of comparable activity or amounts being incurred in future periods. These amounts have therefore been adjusted out in the following schedule in order to provide a more representative comparison of current year operating performance to prior year performance.

    Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
     Statements


    (1) Debt to total capitalization equals total
     debt divided by total debt plus equity.  Net
     debt to net capitalization equals total debt
     less cash and cash equivalents divided by total
     debt plus equity less cash and cash
     equivalents.

    (2) Organic sales growth represents the total
     reported increase within the Corporation's
     ongoing businesses less the impact of foreign
     currency translation, acquisitions and
     divestitures completed in the preceding twelve
     months and significant non-recurring items.

    (3) Free cash flow, which represents cash flow
     from operations less capital expenditures, is
     the principal cash performance measure used by
     UTC. Management believes free cash flow
     provides a relevant measure of liquidity and a
     useful basis for assessing UTC's ability to
     fund its activities, including the financing of
     acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of
     UTC's common stock and distribution of earnings
     to shareholders.  Other companies that use the
     term free cash flow may calculate it
     differently.  The reconciliation of net cash
     flow provided by operating activities, prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles, to free cash flow is
     shown above.

    (4)  Prior period amounts reported within these
     Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
     have been revised for:

    The combination of the financial results of the
     former Carrier and UTC Fire & Security segments
     into a new segment called UTC Climate, Controls
     & Security; and Discontinued operations related
     to actual and planned divestiture of a number
     of non-core businesses.
