Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

Resideo Technologies, Inc. (“Resideo”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a leading manufacturer and developer of technology-driven products that provide critical comfort, energy, smoke and carbon monoxide detection home safety products and security solutions to homes globally. We are also a leading wholesale distributor of low-voltage security products including access control, fire detection, fire suppression, security, and video products, and participate significantly in the broader related markets of audio, communications, data communications, networking, power, ProAV, smart home, and wire and cable. Our global footprint serves both commercial and residential end markets.

Basis of Consolidation and Reporting

The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein contain all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Operating results for the period from January 1, 2024 through March 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

For additional information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K”), filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 14, 2024.

Reporting Period

We report financial information on a fiscal quarter basis using a modified four-four-five week calendar. Our fiscal calendar begins on January 1 and ends on December 31. We have elected the first, second and third quarters to end on a Saturday in order to not disrupt business processes. The effects of this election are generally not significant to reported results for any quarter and only exist within a reporting year.

Reclassification

For the purpose of comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classification. Refer to Note 4. Segment Financial Data for additional information on reclassified corporate expenses to the segments.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes to these policies that have had a material impact on the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the three months ended March 30, 2024.

We consider the applicability and impact of all recent accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and disclose only those that may have a material impact.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires entities to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU also requires disclosure of the name and title of the CODM. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently assessing the impact of adoption on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Note 3. Assets Held for Sale

Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

The Company records assets held for sale at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. The following criteria are used to determine if property is held for sale: (i) management has the authority and commits to a plan to sell the property; (ii) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (iii) there is an active program to locate a buyer and the plan to sell the property has been initiated; (iv) the sale of the property is probable within one year; (v) the property is being actively marketed at a reasonable sale price relative to its current fair value; and (vi) it is unlikely that the plan to sell will be withdrawn or that significant changes to the plan will be made. The carrying value of assets and liabilities held for sale at March 30, 2024, are $38 million in other current assets and $18 million in accrued liabilities, respectively, andzero in the comparable period. Assets held for sale at March 30, 2024 are actively marketed for sale and are under contract. These assets were sold during the second quarter.

Note 4. Segment Financial Data

The Company’s segment information is evaluated by our Chief Executive Officer, who is also the CODM, and is consistent with how management reviews and assesses the performance of the business as well as makes investing and resource allocation decisions. We monitor our operations through ourtwo reportable segments: Products and Solutions and ADI Global Distribution, and report Corporate separately.

These operating segments follow the same accounting policies used for the financial statements. We evaluate a segment’s performance on a U.S. GAAP basis, primarily operating income before corporate expenses.

Products and Solutions—The Products and Solutions business is a leading global manufacturer and developer of technology-driven products and components that provide critical comfort, energy management, and safety and security solutions to over 150 million homes globally. Our offerings include temperature and humidity control, thermal water and air solutions, as well as security panels, sensors, peripherals, communications devices, video cameras, other home-related lifestyle convenience solutions, cloud infrastructure, installation and maintenance tools, and related software.

ADI Global Distribution—The ADI Global Distribution business is a leading wholesale distributor of low-voltage security products including security and life safety, access control and video products and participates significantly in the broader related markets of smart home, power, audio, ProAV, networking, communications, wire and cable, and data communications.

Corporate—On January 1, 2024, certain corporate functions were decentralized into the operating segments aligning with the business strategy. As a result, $11 million and $7 million of information technology, finance, tax, business development, and research and development functional expenses incurred during the first quarter are now recorded within the Products and Solutions and ADI Global Distribution segments, respectively. For the period ending April 1, 2023, $12 million and $8 million of corporate expenses have been reclassified into the Products and Solutions and ADI Global Distribution segments, respectively, decreasing reported Income from Operations to conform to the current year presentation. Additionally, certain other immaterial prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period classification.

Corporate expenses include costs related to the corporate office such as the executive function, legal, accounting, tax, treasury, corporate development, human resources, and information technology. Additionally, unallocated amounts for non-operating items such as Reimbursement Agreement expense, interest income (expense), other income (expense) and provision for income taxes are reported within Corporate.

Restructuring expenses$7$2

We took actions during the quarter to align our cost structure with the Company’s strategic objectives and our outlook of market conditions. The intent of these actions is to lower costs, increase margins, and position us for long-term growth. We expect to fully execute on our restructuring programs over the next 12 to 24 months, and we may incur future additional restructuring expenses associated with these plans. We are unable at this time to make a good faith determination of cost estimates, or ranges of cost estimates, associated with future phases of the programs or the total costs we may incur in connection with these programs. Refer to Note 6. Restructuring Expenses in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of our restructuring programs.

The following table summarizes the status of our restructuring expenses included within accrued liabilities on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity

On August 3, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $150 million of our common stock over an unlimited time period (the “Share Repurchase Program”).

During the three months ended March 30, 2024, we repurchased 0.1 million shares of common stock in the open market at a total cost of $1 million. As of March 30, 2024, we had approximately $108 million of authorized repurchases remaining under the Share Repurchase Program. Common stock repurchases are recorded at cost and presented as a deduction from stockholders’ equity.

Note 8. Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Stock Incentive Plan, which consists of the Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan of Resideo Technologies, Inc. and its Affiliates and the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors of Resideo Technologies, Inc., provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted stock and other stock-based awards. The maximum aggregate shares of common stock that may be granted under these plans are 19.5 million with 3.2 million available to be granted at March 30, 2024.

A summary of awards granted as part of our annual long-term compensation follows:

Less: unamortized deferred financing costs(11)(11)
Total long-term debt$1,394$1,396

A&R Senior Credit Facilities

On February 12, 2021, we entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement with JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A. as administrative agent (the “A&R Credit Agreement”). The A&R Credit Agreement provides for (i) an initial seven-year senior secured Term B loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $950 million, which was later amended to add $200 million in additional term loans (the “A&R Term B Facility”) and (ii) afive-year senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million (the “A&R Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the A&R Term B Facility, the “A&R Senior Credit Facilities”).

On June 30, 2023, we modified the calculation of interest under the A&R Senior Credit Facilities from being calculated based on LIBOR to being calculated based on the SOFR. At March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the weighted average interest rate for the A&R Term B Facility, excluding the effect of the interest rate swaps, was 7.69% and 7.72%, respectively, and there wereno borrowings andno letters of credit issued under the A&R Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants related to the A&R Senior Credit Facilities.

Senior Notes due 2029

On August 26, 2021, we issued $300 million in principal amount of 4.00% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes due 2029”). The Senior Notes due 2029 are senior unsecured obligations guaranteed by the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries and rank equally with all senior unsecured debt and senior to all subordinated debt.

We entered into certain interest rate swap agreements in March 2021, which were amended in June 2023 to transition from a hedge of LIBOR-based cash flows to a hedge of SOFR-based cash flows. These interest rate swap agreements effectively convert a portion of our variable-rate debt to fixed rate debt. Refer to Note 13. Derivative Financial Instruments for further discussion.

Refer to Note 11. Long-Term Debtin our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion.

Note 13. Derivative Financial Instruments

In March 2021, we entered into eight interest rate swap agreements (“Swap Agreements”) with several financial institutions for a combined notional value of $560 million. The Swap Agreements were entered into to reduce the consolidated interest rate risk associated with variable rate, long-term debt.

During 2023, we modified the Swap Agreements blending the asset positions of the original interest rate swap agreements into new interest swap agreements and extending the term of our hedged positions. The new pay-fixed interest rate swap agreements qualify as a hybrid instrument in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging, consisting of financing components and embedded at-market derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges. The amounts remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the modified interest rate swap agreements as of March 30, 2024 were immaterial. We also amended the Swap Agreements to transition from a hedge of LIBOR-based cash flows to a hedge of SOFR-based cash flows.

Refer to Note 12.Derivative Financial Instrumentsin our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion.

The Swap Agreements are adjusted to fair value on a quarterly basis. The following table summarizes the fair value and presentation of derivative instruments in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets as well as the changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss:

Fair Value of Derivative Assets
(in millions) · Financial Statement Line Item · March 30, 2024 · December 31, 2023

Gains reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income(2)(1)
Gains recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, end of period$24$35

Unrealized gains expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss in the next 12 months are estimated to be $21 million as of March 30, 2024.

Note 14. Fair Value

The estimated fair value of our financial instruments held, and when applicable, issued to finance our operations, is summarized below. Certain estimates and judgments were required to develop the fair value amounts. The fair value amounts shown below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we would realize upon disposition, nor do they indicate our intent or ability to dispose of the financial instrument. Assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value are required to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1—quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 2—observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

Level 3—unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data

Financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. There were no changes in the methodologies used in our valuation practices as of March 30, 2024.

The fair values of long-term debt instruments were determined using quoted market prices in inactive markets or discounted cash flows based upon current observable market interest rates and therefore were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table provides a summary of the carrying amount and fair value of outstanding debt:

March 30, 2024December 31, 2023
(in millions)Carrying ValueFair ValueCarrying ValueFair Value

Total debt$1,417$1,388$1,419$1,388

Refer to Note 12. Long-Term Debtto the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Interest Rate Risk—We have exposure to movements in interest rates associated with cash and borrowings. We have entered, and in the future may enter, into various interest rate protection agreements in order to limit the impact of movements in interest rates. The fair values of interest rate swaps have been determined based on market value equivalents at the balance sheet date, taking into account the current interest rate environment and therefore, were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table provides a summary of the carrying amount and fair value of our interest rate swaps:

Refer to Note 13. Derivative Financial Instruments to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

There are no Level 1 or Level 3 assets or liabilities for the periods presented. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these amounts.

Note 15. Accrued Liabilities

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Matters

We are subject to various federal, state, local, and foreign government requirements relating to the protection of the environment and accrue costs related to environmental matters when it is probable that we have incurred a liability related to a contaminated site and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We believe that, as a general matter, our policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and personal injury and that our handling, manufacture, use and disposal of hazardous substances are in accordance with environmental and safety laws and regulations. We have incurred remedial response and voluntary cleanup costs for site contamination and are a party to claims associated with environmental and safety matters, including products containing hazardous substances. Additional claims and costs involving environmental matters are likely to continue to arise in the future.

Environment-related expenses for sites owned and operated by us are presented within cost of goods sold for operating sites. For the three months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, environmental expenses related to these operating sites were not material. Liabilities for environmental costs were $22 million at March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Obligations Payable Under Indemnification Agreements

The Reimbursement Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnification Agreements”) are further described below.

Reimbursement Agreement

We separated from Honeywell International Inc. (“Honeywell”) on October 29, 2018, becoming an independent publicly traded company as a result of a pro rata distribution of our common stock to shareholders of Honeywell (the “Spin-off”). In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into a reimbursement agreement, pursuant to which we have an obligation to make cash payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of payments for certain Honeywell environmental-liability payments (the “Reimbursement Agreement”) which include amounts billed (payments), less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts relating to such liabilities, and less 90% of the net proceeds received by Honeywell in connection with (i) affirmative claims relating to such liabilities, (ii) contributions by other parties relating to such liabilities and (iii) certain property sales (the recoveries). The Reimbursement Agreement extends until the earlier of (1) December 31, 2043; or (2) December 31 of the third consecutive anniversary where the annual reimbursement obligation (including accrued amounts) has been less than $25 million. While the amount payable by us in respect of such liabilities arising in any given year is subject to a cap of $140 million under the Reimbursement Agreement, the estimated liability for resolution of pending and future environmental-related liabilities recorded on our balance sheets are calculated as if we were responsible for 100% of the environmental-liability payments associated with certain sites. Refer to Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion.

Tax Matters Agreement

In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into the Tax Matters Agreement with Honeywell, pursuant to which we are responsible and will indemnify Honeywell for certain taxes, including certain income taxes, sales taxes, VAT and payroll taxes, relating to the business for all periods, including periods prior to the consummation of the Spin-Off. In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement addresses the allocation of liability for taxes that are incurred as a result of restructuring activities undertaken to effectuate the Spin-Off.

We are required to indemnify Honeywell for any taxes resulting from the failure of the Spin-Off and related internal transactions to qualify for their intended tax treatment under U.S. federal, state and local income tax law, as well as foreign tax law, where such taxes result from our action or omission not permitted by the Separation and Distribution Agreement between Honeywell and Resideo dated as of October 19, 2018 or the Tax Matters Agreement.

The following table summarizes information concerning the Reimbursement and Tax Matter Agreements’ liabilities:

(in millions)Reimbursement AgreementTax Matters AgreementTotal
Balance as of January 1, 2024$652$97$749
Accruals for liabilities deemed probable and reasonably estimable43—43
Payments to Honeywell(35)—(35)
Balance as of March 30, 2024$660$97$757

The liabilities related to the Reimbursement and Tax Matters Agreements are included in the following balance sheet accounts:

(in millions)March 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Accrued liabilities$140$140
Obligations payable under Indemnification Agreements617609
Total indemnification liabilities$757$749

For the three months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, net expenses related to the Reimbursement Agreement were $43 million and $41 million, respectively.

We do not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of indemnification liabilities to be recorded upon future completion of studies, litigation or settlements, and neither the timing nor the amount of the ultimate costs associated with such indemnification liability payments can be determined although they could be material to our consolidated results of operations and operating cash flows in the periods recognized or paid.

Independent of our payments under the Reimbursement Agreement, we will have ongoing liability for certain environmental claims, which are part of our ongoing business.

Other Matters

We are subject to lawsuits, investigations and disputes arising out of the conduct of our business, including matters relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability, acquisitions and divestitures, employee matters, intellectual property, and environmental, health, and safety matters. We recognize a liability for any contingency that is probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable. We continually assess the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses, based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. No such matters are material to our financial statements. Refer to Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of these matters.

On June 28, 2023, Lisset Tredo, a Company employee, filed a putative class action complaint in the San Diego County Superior Court on behalf of all non-exempt employees in California, in which she alleges violations by the Company of the California Labor Code related to sick leave pay, accurate wage statements, recordkeeping, and pay timing, and on August 28, 2023 she filed a first amended complaint adding a claim under the California Private Attorneys General Act (the “Tredo Lawsuit”). In the Tredo Lawsuit, Tredo seeks alleged unpaid wages, restitution, interest, statutory penalties, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees and costs in an unknown amount. The Company answered the Tredo Lawsuit in which it asserted a general denial of plaintiff’s allegations and asserted various defenses.

We are investigating the allegations and defenses. At the request of plaintiff’s counsel, the parties have agreed to postpone mediation from January 2024 to May 2024, and to stay formal discovery pending the outcome of the mediation. If the case is not resolved at mediation, we intend to defend the matter vigorously; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in such defense. At this stage we are unable to estimate the total costs to defend the matter and have estimated the potential liability to be immaterial to us in the event that we are not successful in our defense.

Warranties and Guarantees

In the normal course of business, we issue product warranties and product performance guarantees. We accrue for the estimated cost of product warranties and product performance guarantees based on contract terms and historical experience at the time of sale. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties and guarantees are made as changes to the obligations become reasonably estimable. Product warranties and product performance guarantees are included in accrued and other liabilities. The following table summarizes information concerning recorded obligations for product warranties and product performance guarantees:

(in millions)March 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Beginning balance$34$48
Accruals for warranties/guarantees issued during the year424
Settlement of warranty/guarantee claims(8)(38)
Ending balance$30$34

Note 17. Income Taxes

For interim periods, income tax is equal to the total of (1) year-to-date pretax income multiplied by the forecasted effective tax rate plus (2) tax expense items specific to the period. In situations where we expect to report losses and where we do not expect to receive tax benefits, we apply separate forecast effective tax rates to those jurisdictions rather than including them in the consolidated forecast effective tax rate.

For the three months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the net tax expense was $30 million and $24 million, respectively, and consists primarily of interim period tax expense based on year-to-date pretax income multiplied by our forecasted effective tax rate. In addition to items specific to the period, our income tax rate is impacted by the mix of earnings across the jurisdictions in which we operate, non-deductible expenses, and U.S. taxation of foreign earnings.

Note 18. Earnings Per Share

The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share follows:

Three Months Ended
(in millions, except per share data)March 30, 2024April 1, 2023
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share:
Net income$43$57
Denominator for basic and diluted earnings per share:
Weighted average basic number of common shares outstanding146147
Plus: dilutive effect of common stock equivalents22
Weighted average diluted number of common shares outstanding148149
Earnings per share:
Basic$0.29$0.39
Diluted$0.29$0.38

Diluted earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method and the average market price of our common stock for the period.

The following potentially dilutive instruments were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share because their effect would have been antidilutive, and in the case of certain PSUs, the contingency has not been satisfied:

Note 19. Subsequent Events

On April 15, 2024, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire Snap One Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: SNPO) for $10.75 per share in cash, for a transaction value of approximately $1.4 billion, inclusive of net debt. Snap One is a leading provider of smart-living products, services, and software to professional integrators. The transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2024, and is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of applicable antitrust and other regulatory approvals.

Resideo intends to use proceeds from committed debt financing, cash on hand, and a $500 million perpetual convertible preferred equity investment from Clayton, Dubilier & Rice LLC ("CD&R") to fund the transaction. Terms of the CD&R investment include a 7% coupon, payable in cash or payment-in-kind at Resideo's option, and a conversion price of $26.92. CD&R brings a long track record of value creation through its investments and significant experience in the specialty distribution market. Effective upon the closing, CD&R will have the right to designate two members to the Board of Directors of Resideo.
