Previous wording
The Company maintains operations worldwide. Recently, the United States has announced tariffs and reciprocal tariffs on a wide range of products manufactured or produced worldwide, including Canada, China, the European Union, Japan and Mexico, among others. Several countries have similarly announced reciprocal or other tariffs impacting products manufactured or produced in the United States. In addition, the United States and other nations have, and may in the future, pause, reimpose, decrease or increase tariffs. If the actual and potential tariffs and reciprocal tariffs are implemented as currently enacted or proposed, the Company expects that such actions will negatively impact its revenue growth and margins in future periods through decreased sales and increased cost of goods sold. Further, the Company has experienced, and could again experience, increased material cost inflation and component shortages, as well as disruptions and delays in its supply chain, as a result of global macroeconomic trends including the imposition of tariffs and other restrictive trade measures, as well as geopolitical and economic tensions. The net effect of these events will depend on the Company’s ability to successfully mitigate and offset their impact.

Several countries have similarly announced reciprocal or other tariffs impacting products manufactured or produced in the United States. In addition, the United States and other nations have, and may in the future, pause, reimpose, decrease or increase tariffs. Although the Company has been largely able to mitigate the impact of tariffs that have been enacted to date, if additional tariffs and reciprocal tariffs are implemented (whether as currently proposed or otherwise), such actions could negatively impact the Company's revenue growth and margins in future periods through decreased sales and increased cost of goods sold. Further, the Company has experienced, and could again experience, increased material cost inflation and component shortages, as well as disruptions and delays in its supply chain, as a result of global macroeconomic trends including the imposition of tariffs and other restrictive trade measures, as well as geopolitical and economic tensions. The net effect of these events will continue to depend on the Company’s ability to successfully mitigate and offset their impact.
Previous wording
The Company is currently taking actions to mitigate the actual and anticipated impact of these events, including strengthening the Company's in region, for region manufacturing strategy, pivoting to local sourcing in its supply chain, accelerating pricing actions and asserting contractual rights through change orders. The Company has historically taken a variety of actions to mitigate trade restrictions, supply chain disruptions and inflation, including through expanding and redistributing its supplier network, supplier financing, accelerated purchasing and productivity improvements. These actions have historically been successful in offsetting some, but not all, of the impact of these trends, and it is uncertain as to whether the actions taken or contemplated to be taken by the Company will be effective in mitigating the impact of current and future trade restrictions and their related impacts. The Company continues to actively monitor and evaluate the development and potential impacts of tariffs and other trade restrictions on its supply chain and results of operations.

As a result of the Company’s global presence, a significant portion of its revenues and expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which results in non-U.S. currency risks and exchange exposure. While the Company employs financial instruments to hedge some of its transactional foreign exchange exposure, these activities do not insulate it completely from those exposures. In addition, currency exposure from the translation of non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries cannot be hedged. Exchange rates can be volatile and a substantial weakening or strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar could increase or reduce the Company’s profit margin, respectively, and impact the comparability of results from period to period. Revenue and profits were negatively impacted by movements in foreign exchange rates against the U.S. dollar during the three and six months ended March 31, 2025.

The Company continues to engage in an ongoing evaluation of its non-core product lines in connection with its objective to be a pure-play provider of comprehensive solutions for commercial buildings. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Residential and Light Commercial ("R&LC") HVAC business to Robert Bosch GmbH (“Bosch”) for approximately $8.1 billion in cash with the Company's portion of the aggregate consideration being approximately $6.7 billion, inclusive of an upfront royalty payment for the licensing of the York tradename. The R&LC HVAC business includes the Company's North America Ducted business and Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning Holding (UK) Ltd., the Company’s global residential joint venture with Hitachi Global Life Solutions, Inc. (“Hitachi”), of which the Company owns 60% and Hitachi owns 40%. The R&LC HVAC business, which was previously reported in the Global Products segment, meets the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation and, as a result, its historical financial results are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation, and assets and liabilities were reclassified as held for sale for all periods presented. The Company expects that the sale of the R&LC HVAC business will close in the second half of fiscal 2025.
Current wording
The Company continues to engage in an ongoing evaluation of its non-core product lines in connection with its objective to be a pure-play provider of comprehensive solutions for commercial buildings. On July 31, 2025, the Company completed the divestiture of its Residential and Light Commercial ("R&LC") HVAC business to Robert Bosch GmbH (“Bosch”) for net cash proceeds of approximately $5.0 billion after tax and transaction-related expenses. The R&LC HVAC business included the Company's North America Ducted business and Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning Holding (UK) Ltd., the Company’s global residential joint venture with Hitachi Global Life Solutions, Inc.
Previous wording
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company committed to a multi-year restructuring plan to address stranded costs and further right-size its global operations as a result of previously announced portfolio simplification actions. It is expected that one-time restructuring costs, including severance and other employee termination benefits, contract termination costs, and certain other related cash and non-cash charges, of approximately $400 million will be incurred over the course of fiscal 2025, 2026 and 2027, resulting in expected annual cost savings of approximately $500 million upon full completion of the plan. The Company’s ability to execute the most significant aspects of the restructuring plan will be dependent on the timing of the close of the R&LC HVAC business divestiture transaction. Accordingly, the Company is unable to estimate the specific costs to be incurred and savings to be achieved in fiscal 2025; however, depending on the finalization of the carve-out of the R&LC HVAC business, including post-closing separation obligations, the timing of the closing of the transaction and the ability to execute more significant aspects of the planned restructuring actions, the impact of costs on net income could be material in fiscal 2025. Restructuring costs will be incurred across all segments and Corporate functions.

Backlog and orders are additional metrics that are meant to provide management with a deeper level of insight into the progress of specific strategic and growth initiatives. Backlog is applicable to sales of products and systems and services and totaled $16.0 billion at March 31, 2025, including both the Building Solutions and Global Products segments. Orders provide management with a signal of customer demand for the Company's products and services, as well as an indication of future revenues and performance. However, the timing and conversion of backlog and orders are subject to numerous uncertainties and risks and are not necessarily indicative of the amount of revenue to be earned in the upcoming fiscal year.
