CARRIER GLOBAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Carrier Global Corporation is a leading global provider of healthy, safe, sustainable and intelligent building and cold chain solutions. The Company's portfolio includes industry-leading brands such as Carrier, Automated Logic, Carrier Transicold, Kidde, Edwards and LenelS2 that offer innovative heating, ventilating, air conditioning ("HVAC"), refrigeration, fire, security and building automation technologies to help make the world safer and more comfortable. The Company also provides a broad array of related building services, including audit, design, installation, system integration, repair, maintenance and monitoring.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2021 filed with the SEC on February 8, 2022 (the "2021 Form 10-K").

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

In early 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease known as COVID-19 as a global pandemic. In response, many countries implemented containment and mitigation measures to combat the outbreak, which severely restricted the level of economic activity and caused a significant contraction in the global economy. As a result, the Company took several preemptive actions to manage liquidity, preserve the health and safety of its employees and customers as well as maintain the continuity of its operations. The preparation of financial statements requires management to use judgments in making estimates and assumptions based on the relevant information available at the end of each period, which can have a significant effect on reported amounts. However, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, including a resurgence in cases and the spread of COVID-19 variants, management's judgments could change. While the Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be negatively impacted, the extent of any continuing impact cannot be estimated with certainty at this time.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries in which it has control. All intra-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Related party transactions between the Company and its equity method investees have not been eliminated. Non-controlling interest represents a non-controlling investor's interests in the results of subsidiaries that the Company controls and consolidates.

Sale of Chubb Fire & Security Business

On July 26, 2021, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement to sell its Chubb Fire and Security business ("Chubb") to APi Group Corporation ("APi"). As a result, the assets and liabilities of Chubb are presented as held for sale on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021 and recorded at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less estimated cost to sell. The sale of Chubb was completed on January 3, 2022 (the "Chubb Sale"). See Note 16 - Divestitures for additional information.

Separation from United Technologies

On April 3, 2020, United Technologies Corporation, since renamed Raytheon Technologies Corporation ("UTC"), completed the spin-off of the Company into an independent, publicly traded company (the "Separation") through a pro-rata distribution (the "Distribution") on a one-for-one basis of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company to UTC shareowners who held shares of UTC common stock as of the close of business on March 19, 2020, the record date of the Distribution. The Company incurred separation-related costs including employee-related costs, costs to establish certain stand-alone functions, information technology systems, professional service fees and other costs associated with becoming an independent, publicly traded company. These costs are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and totaled $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Table of Contents

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") is the sole source of authoritative U.S. GAAP other than SEC issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU") to communicate changes to the codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs pending adoption were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or not expected to have a material impact on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3: INVENTORIES, NET

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. Cost is primarily determined based on the first-in, first-out inventory method ("FIFO") or average cost methods, which approximates current replacement cost. However, certain subsidiaries use the last-in, first-out inventory method ("LIFO").

Inventories, net consisted of the following:


(In millions)	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Raw materials	$	670	$	559
Work-in-process	260		197
Finished goods	1,428		1,214

Inventories, net	$	2,358	$	1,970

The Company performs periodic assessments utilizing customer demand, production requirements and historical usage rates to determine the existence of excess and obsolete inventory and records necessary provisions to reduce such inventories to the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. Raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods are net of valuation reserves of $160 million and $154 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

NOTE 4: GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company records goodwill as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is tested and reviewed annually for impairment on July 1 or whenever there is a material change in events or circumstances that indicates that the fair value of the reporting unit may be less than its carrying value.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows:


(In millions)	HVAC		Refrigeration		Fire & Security		Total
Balance as of December 31, 2021	$	5,658	$	1,228	$	2,463	$	9,349
Goodwill resulting from business combinations (1)	3		—		1		4

Balance as of March 31, 2022	$	5,625	$	1,220	$	2,443	$	9,288

(1) See Note 15 - Acquisitions for additional information.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested and reviewed annually for impairment on July 1 or whenever there is a material change in events or circumstances that indicates that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount of the asset. All other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

Long-term debt, net of current portion	$	8,305	$	9,513

Revolving Credit Facility

On February 10, 2020, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with various banks permitting aggregate borrowings of up to $2.0 billion pursuant to an unsecured, unsubordinated revolving credit facility that matures on April 3, 2025 (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The Revolving Credit Facility supports the Company's commercial paper program and cash requirements of the Company. A commitment fee of 0.125% is charged on unused commitments. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are available in U.S. Dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling and bear interest at a variable interest rate plus a ratings-based margin, which was 125 basis points as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Commercial Paper Program

The Company has a $2.0 billion unsecured, unsubordinated commercial paper program, which can be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of working capital and potential acquisitions. As of March 31, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program.

Table of Contents

Project Financing Arrangements

The Company is involved in several long-term construction contracts in which it arranges project financing with certain customers. As a result, the Company issued $14 million and $46 million of debt during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Long-term debt repayments associated with these financing arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $8 million and $53 million, respectively.

Debt Covenants

The Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture for the Long-term notes contain affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of these types, which, among other things, limit the Company's ability to incur additional liens, to make certain fundamental changes and to enter into sale and leaseback transactions. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the agreements governing its outstanding indebtedness.

Tender Offers

On March 15, 2022, the Company commenced tender offers to purchase up to $1.15 billion ("Aggregate Tender Cap") aggregate principal of the Company's 2.242% Notes due 2025 and 2.493% Notes due 2027 (together, the "Senior Notes"). The tender offers included payment of applicable accrued and unpaid interest up to the settlement date, along with a fixed spread for early repayment. Based on participation, the Company elected to settle the tender offers on March 30, 2022. The aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes validly tendered and accepted was approximately $1.15 billion, which included $800 million of Notes due 2025 and $350 million of Notes due 2027. Upon settlement, the Company recognized a net gain of $33 million and wrote off $5 million of unamortized deferred financing costs within Interest (expense) income, net on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

NOTE 6: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), defines fair value as the price that would be received if an asset is sold or the price paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used in developing assumptions when pricing an asset or liability as follows:

•Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

•Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to certain risks arising from business operations and economic factors, including foreign currency and commodity price risk. These exposures are managed through operational strategies and the use of undesignated hedging contracts. The Company's derivative assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using internal models based on observable market inputs, such as forward, interest, contract and discount rates with changes in fair value reported directly in earnings.

The following tables provide the valuation hierarchy classification of assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value and

NOTE 9: PRODUCT WARRANTIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company provides standard warranty coverage on its products. Provisions for these amounts are established at the time of sale and estimated primarily based on product warranty terms and historical claims experience. In addition, the Company incurs discretionary costs to service its products in connection with specific product performance issues. Provisions for these amounts are established when they are known and estimable. The Company assesses the adequacy of its initial provisions and will make adjustments as necessary based on known or anticipated claims or as new information becomes available that suggests it is probable that future costs will be different than estimated amounts. Amounts associated with these provisions are classified on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Accrued liabilities or Other long-term liabilities based on their anticipated settlement date.

NOTE 10: EQUITY

The authorized number of shares of common stock of Carrier is 4,000,000,000 shares of $0.01 par value. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 874,460,201 and 873,064,219 shares of common stock were issued, respectively, which includes 26,043,023 and 10,375,654 shares of treasury stock, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

On July 27, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.1 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company may repurchase its outstanding common stock from time to time subject to market conditions and at the Company's discretion in the open market or through one or more other public or private transactions and subject to compliance with the Company's obligations under certain tax agreements. The Company records repurchases under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as Treasury stock as a reduction to equity.

On December 14, 2021, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement ("ASR Agreement") to repurchase $500 million of its common stock pursuant to the Company's existing share repurchase program. In accordance with the ASR Agreement, the Company received initial delivery of 7.6 million shares on January 4, 2022, representing approximately 80% of the expected share repurchases. The final number of shares under the ASR Agreement was based on the daily average of the volume-weighted average share price of the Company's common stock over the term of the ASR Agreement. Upon final settlement, the Company received an additional 2.7 million shares on February 8, 2022 and recognized $500 million in Treasury stock as a reduction in equity.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 15,667,369 shares of common stock, which included shares repurchased under the ASR Agreement. The total aggregate purchase price was $741 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 976,374 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $38 million.

NOTE 11: REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue is recognized when control of a good or service promised in a contract (i.e., performance obligation) is transferred to a customer. Control is obtained when a customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from that good or service. A significant portion of the Company's performance obligations are recognized at a point-in-time when control of the product transfers to the customer, which is generally at the time of shipment. The remaining portion of the Company’s performance obligations are recognized over time as the customer simultaneously obtains control as the Company performs work under a contract, or if the product being produced for the customer has no alternative use and the Company has a contractual right to payment.

Sales disaggregated by product and service are as follows:

Net contract assets	$	75	$	(7)

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in contract assets and contract liabilities. Contract assets relate to the conditional right to consideration for any completed performance under a contract when costs are incurred in excess of billings under the percentage-of-completion methodology. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of performance under a contract or when the Company has a right to consideration that is conditioned upon transfer of a good or service to a customer. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue as (or when) the Company performs under the contract.

Table of Contents

The Company recognized revenue of $157 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that related to contract liabilities as of January 1, 2022. The Company expects a majority of its current contract liabilities at the end of the period to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months.

NOTE 12: RESTRUCTURING COSTS

The Company incurs costs associated with restructuring initiatives intended to improve operating performance, profitability and working capital levels. Actions associated with these initiatives may include improving productivity, workforce reductions and the consolidation of facilities.

The Company recorded net pre-tax restructuring costs for new and ongoing restructuring initiatives as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,

Balance as of March 31,	$	43	$	49

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, charges associated with restructuring initiatives related to cost reduction efforts. Amounts recognized primarily related to severance due to workforce reductions and exit costs due to the consolidation of field operations. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $43 million accrued for costs associated with its announced restructuring initiatives, all of which is expected to be paid within one year.

NOTE 13: INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income tax expense in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), which requires an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for the full year to be applied to the respective interim period, taking into account year-to-date amounts and projected results for the full year. The effective tax rate was 17.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with 21.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate on the Chubb gain compared with the Company's U.S. statutory rate and a favorable tax adjustment of $32 million associated with foreign tax credits generated and expected to be utilized in the current

Table of Contents

year. The three months ended March 31, 2021 included a favorable tax adjustment of $21 million resulting from the re-organization of a German subsidiary.

The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis through an analysis of potential sources of future taxable income, including prior year taxable income that may be available to absorb a carryback of tax losses, reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and forecasts of taxable income. The Company considers all negative and positive evidence, including the weight of the evidence, to determine whether valuation allowances against deferred tax assets are required. The Company maintains valuation allowances against certain deferred tax assets.

The Company conducts business globally and files income tax returns in U.S. federal, state and foreign jurisdictions. In certain jurisdictions, the Company's operations were included in UTC's combined tax returns for the periods through the Distribution. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") is currently auditing UTC's tax years 2017 and 2018. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination for years prior to 2017 and, with few exceptions, is no longer subject to state, local and foreign income tax examinations for tax years prior to 2013.

In the ordinary course of business, there is inherent uncertainty in quantifying the Company's income tax positions. The Company assesses its income tax positions and records tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that a net decrease in unrecognized tax benefits of between $10 million and $65 million may occur within 12 months as a result of additional uncertain tax positions, the Separation, the revaluation of uncertain tax positions arising from examinations, appeals, court decisions and/or the expiration of tax statutes.

NOTE 14: EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income attributable to common shareowners by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period (excluding treasury stock). Diluted earnings per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive stock awards that are outstanding. The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock-based awards, including stock appreciation rights and stock options, when the effect of the potential exercise would be anti-dilutive.

The following table summarizes the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions, except per share amounts)		2022		2021
Net income attributable to common shareowners		$	1,379	$	384

Basic weighted-average number of shares outstanding		853.3		869.3
Stock awards and equity units (share equivalent)		20.8		20.5

NOTE 15: ACQUISITIONS

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company acquired consolidated businesses and minority-owned businesses. The aggregate cash paid, net of cash acquired, totaled $9 million and $6 million, respectively, and was funded through cash on hand. Acquisitions are recorded using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805,

Table of Contents

Business Combinations. As a result, the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimate of fair market value of such assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was recognized as goodwill and totaled $4 million and $5 million, respectively.

Toshiba Carrier Corporation Acquisition Agreement

On February 6, 2022, the Company entered into a binding agreement to acquire a majority ownership stake in Toshiba Carrier Corporation (“TCC”) for approximately $900 million. TCC, a variable refrigerant flow ("VRF") and light commercial HVAC joint venture between Carrier and Toshiba Corporation, designs and manufactures flexible, energy-efficient and high-performance VRF and light commercial HVAC systems as well as commercial products, compressors and heat pumps. The acquisition will include all of TCC’s advanced research and development centers and global manufacturing operations, product pipeline and the long-term use of Toshiba’s iconic brand. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Upon closing, Toshiba Corporation will retain a 5% ownership interest in TCC.

NOTE 19: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Company is involved in various litigation, claims and administrative proceedings, including those related to environmental and legal matters (including asbestos). In accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, the Company records accruals for loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are generally based upon a range of possible outcomes. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the Company accrues the minimum amount. In addition, these estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available. The Company is unable to predict the final outcome of the following matters based on the information currently available, except as otherwise noted. However, the Company does not believe that the resolution of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect upon the Company's competitive position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Environmental Matters

The Company’s operations are subject to environmental regulation by various authorities. The Company has accrued for the costs of environmental remediation activities, including but not limited to investigatory, remediation, operating and maintenance costs and performance guarantees. The most likely cost to be incurred is accrued based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to individual sites, including technology required to remediate, current laws and regulations and prior remediation experience.

The outstanding liabilities for environmental obligations are as follows:


(In millions)	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Environmental reserves included in Accrued liabilities	$	29	$	29
Environmental reserves included in Other long-term liabilities	189		191
Total Environmental reserves	$	218	$	220

For sites with multiple responsible parties, the Company considers its likely proportionate share of the anticipated remediation costs and the ability of other parties to fulfill their obligations in establishing a provision for these costs. Accrued environmental liabilities are not reduced by potential insurance reimbursements and are undiscounted.

Asbestos Matters

The Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos allegedly integrated into certain Carrier products or business premises. While the Company has never manufactured asbestos and no longer incorporates it into any currently-manufactured products, certain products that the Company no longer manufactures

contained components incorporating asbestos. A substantial majority of these asbestos-related claims have been dismissed without payment or have been covered in full or in part by insurance or other forms of indemnity. Additional cases were litigated and settled without any insurance reimbursement. The amounts involved in asbestos-related claims were not material individually or in the aggregate in any period.

The Company had asbestos liabilities and related insurance recoveries as follows:


(In millions)	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Asbestos liabilities included in Accrued liabilities	$	17	$	17
Asbestos liabilities included in Other long-term liabilities	219		220
Total Asbestos liabilities	$	236	$	237

Asbestos-related recoveries included in Other assets, current	$	5	$	5
Asbestos-related recoveries included in Other assets	92		93
Total Asbestos-related recoveries	$	97	$	98

The amounts recorded for asbestos-related liabilities are based on currently available information and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable and are made with input from outside actuarial experts. These amounts are undiscounted and exclude the Company’s legal fees to defend the asbestos claims, which are expensed as incurred. In addition, the Company has recorded insurance recovery receivables for probable asbestos-related recoveries.

UTC Equity Awards Conversion Litigation

On August 12, 2020, several former employees of UTC or its subsidiaries filed a putative class action complaint (the "Complaint") in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut against Raytheon Technologies Corporation, Carrier, Otis, the former members of the UTC Board of Directors and the members of the Carrier and Otis Boards of Directors (Geraud Darnis, et al. v. Raytheon Technologies Corporation, et al.). The Complaint challenges the method by which UTC equity awards were converted to UTC, Carrier and Otis equity awards following the Separation and the Distribution. Defendants moved to dismiss the Complaint. Plaintiffs amended their Complaint on September 13, 2021 ("the Amended Complaint"). The Amended Complaint, now with Raytheon, Carrier and Otis as the only defendants, asserts that the defendants are liable for breach of certain equity compensation plans and for breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The Amended Complaint also seeks specific performance. Carrier believes that the claims against the Company are without merit. Defendants moved to dismiss the Amended Complaint on October 13, 2021. The motion was fully briefed as of December 3, 2021. The court has not scheduled arguments or decided the motion.

Aqueous Film Forming Foam Litigation

As of March 31, 2022, the Company has been named as a defendant in more than 2,200 lawsuits filed by individuals in or removed to the federal courts of the United States alleging that the historic use of Aqueous Film Forming Foam ("AFFF") caused personal injuries and/or property damage. The Company has also been named as a defendant in more than 160 lawsuits filed by several U.S. states, municipalities and water utilities in or removed to U.S. federal courts alleging that the historic use of AFFF caused contamination of property and water supplies. In December 2018, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred and consolidated all AFFF cases pending in the U.S. federal courts against the Company and others to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina ("MDL Court") for pre-trial proceedings ("MDL Proceedings"). The individual plaintiffs in the MDL Proceedings generally seek damages for alleged personal injuries, medical monitoring and diminution in property value and injunctive relief to remediate alleged contamination of water supplies. The U.S. state, municipal and water utility plaintiffs in the MDL Proceedings generally seek damages and costs related to the remediation of public property and water supplies.

AFFF is a firefighting foam, developed beginning in the late 1960s pursuant to U.S. military specification, used to extinguish certain types of hydrocarbon-fueled fires primarily at military bases and airports. AFFF was manufactured by several companies, including National Foam and Angus Fire. UTC first entered the AFFF business with the acquisition of National Foam and Angus Fire in 2005 as part of the acquisition of Kidde. In 2013, Kidde divested the National Foam and Angus Fire businesses to a third party. The Company acquired Kidde as part of its separation from UTC in April 2020. During the eight-year period of its operation by Kidde, National Foam manufactured AFFF for sale to government (including the U.S. federal government) and non-government customers in the U.S. at a single facility located in West Chester, Pennsylvania

("Pennsylvania Site"). During the same period, Angus Fire manufactured AFFF for sale outside the United States at a single facility located in Bentham, England.

The key components of AFFF that contribute to its fire-extinguishing capabilities are known as fluorosurfactants. National Foam and Angus Fire did not manufacture fluorosurfactants but instead purchased these substances from unrelated third parties. Plaintiffs in the MDL Proceedings allege that the fluorosurfactants used by various manufacturers in producing AFFF contained, or over time degraded into, compounds known as perflourooctane sulfonate ("PFOS") and/or perflourooctane acid ("PFOA"). Plaintiffs further allege that, as a result of the use of AFFF, PFOS and PFOA were released into the environment and, in some instances, ultimately reached drinking water supplies.

Plaintiffs in the MDL Proceedings allege that PFOS and PFOA contamination has resulted from the use of AFFF containing fluorosurfactants manufactured using a process known as ECF. They also allege that PFOA contamination has resulted from the use of AFFF containing fluorosurfactants manufactured using a different process, known as telomerization. Plaintiffs further allege that 3M was the only AFFF manufacturer that used fluorosurfactants relying on the ECF process and that all other foam manufacturers (including National Foam and Angus Fire) relied solely on fluorosurfactants produced via telomerization. Compounds containing PFOS and PFOA (as well as many other per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances known collectively as "PFAS") have also been used for decades by many third parties in a number of different industries to manufacture carpets, clothing, fabrics, cookware, food packaging, personal care products, cleaning products, paints, varnishes and other consumer and industrial products.

Plaintiffs in the MDL Proceedings have named multiple defendants, including four suppliers of chemicals and raw materials used to manufacture fluorosurfactants, four fluorosurfactant manufacturers, two toll manufacturers of fluorosurfactants and seven current (including National Foam and Angus Fire) and former (including the Company) AFFF manufacturers.

General liability discovery in the MDL Proceedings continues. Preliminary stage discovery in ten "bellwether" water provider cases was concluded and three of these cases were selected for tier two site-specific discovery. That discovery is ongoing. The MDL Court previously established a briefing schedule with respect to certain aspects of the government contractor defense, potentially applicable to AFFF sold to or used by the U.S. government or other customers requiring product manufactured to meet military specification, with briefing to conclude at the end of January 2022 with a hearing to follow in late March. In late March the MDL Court postponed the planned hearing and called for briefing on additional elements of the government contractor defense. Briefing will continue through July 1, 2022.

Outside of the MDL Proceedings, the Company and other defendants are also party to six lawsuits in U.S. state courts brought by oil refining companies alleging product liability claims related to legacy sales of AFFF and seeking damages for the costs to replace the product and for property damage. In addition, the Company and other defendants are party to two actions related to the Pennsylvania Site in which the plaintiff water utility company seeks remediation costs related to the alleged contamination of the local water supply.

The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims in the MDL Proceedings and the other AFFF lawsuits. Based on the 2013 agreement for the sale of National Foam and Angus Fire, the Company is pursuing indemnification against these claims from the purchaser and current owner of National Foam and Angus Fire. The Company also is pursuing insurance coverage for these claims. At this time, however, given the numerous factual, scientific and legal issues to be resolved relating to these claims, the Company is unable to assess the probability of liability or to reasonably estimate the damages, if any, to be allocated to the Company, if one or more plaintiffs were to prevail in these cases. There can be no assurance that any such future exposure will not be material in any period.

Income Taxes

Under the Tax Matters Agreement relating to the Separation, the Company is responsible to UTC for its share of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") transition tax associated with foreign undistributed earnings as of December 31, 2017. As a result, a liability of $417 million is included within the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within Other Long-Term Liabilities as of March 31, 2022. This obligation is expected to be settled in annual installments ending in April 2026 with the next installment of $34 million due in 2023. The Company believes that the likelihood of incurring losses materially in excess of this amount is remote.

Other

The Company has other commitments and contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings, self-insurance programs and matters arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for contingencies generally based upon a range of

possible outcomes. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the Company accrues the minimum amount.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is also routinely a defendant in, party to or otherwise subject to many pending and threatened legal actions, claims, disputes and proceedings. These matters are often based on alleged violations of contract, product liability, warranty, regulatory, environmental, health and safety, employment, intellectual property, tax and other laws. In some of these proceedings, claims for substantial monetary damages are asserted against the Company and could result in fines, penalties, compensatory or treble damages or non-monetary relief. The Company does not believe that these matters will have a material adverse effect upon its competitive position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

With respect to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Carrier for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PricewaterhouseCoopers") reported that it has applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards for a review of such information. However, its report dated April 28, 2022, appearing below, states that the firm did not audit and does not express an opinion on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. PricewaterhouseCoopers has not carried out any significant or additional audit tests beyond those that would have been necessary if their report had not been included. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on its report on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. PricewaterhouseCoopers is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for its report on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements because that report is not a "report" or a "part" of a registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act.

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Carrier Global Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2022, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income (loss), of changes in equity and of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial information”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income (loss), of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 8, 2022, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Business Summary

Carrier is a leading global provider of healthy, safe, sustainable and intelligent building and cold chain solutions. Our portfolio includes industry-leading brands such as Carrier, Automated Logic, Carrier Transicold, Kidde, Edwards and LenelS2 that offer innovative HVAC, refrigeration, fire, security and building automation technologies to help make the world safer and more comfortable. We also provide a broad array of related building services, including audit, design, installation, system integration, repair, maintenance and monitoring. Our operations are classified into three segments: HVAC, Refrigeration and Fire & Security.

Our worldwide operations are affected by global and regional industrial, economic and political factors and trends. These include the mega-trends of urbanization, climate change and increasing requirements for food safety driven by the food needs of our growing global population and the rising standards of living in emerging markets. We believe that our business segments are well positioned to benefit from favorable secular trends, including these mega-trends and from the strength of our industry-leading brands and track record of innovation. In addition, we regularly review our markets to proactively identify trends and adapt our strategies accordingly.

Our business is also affected by changes in the general level of economic activity, such as changes in business and consumer spending, construction and shipping activity as well as short-term economic factors such as currency fluctuations, commodity price volatility and supply disruptions. However, we continue to invest in our business, take pricing actions to mitigate supply chain and inflationary pressures, develop new products and services in order to remain competitive in our markets and use risk management strategies to mitigate various exposures. We believe that we have industry-leading global brands, which form the foundation of our business strategy. Coupled with our focus on growth, innovation and operational efficiency, we expect to drive long-term future growth and increased value for our shareowners.

Recent Developments

Russia's Invasion of Ukraine

In February 2022, Russian forces launched a military action against Ukraine. As a result, the European Union, United States, the United Kingdom and other countries have imposed sanctions that have increased global economic and political uncertainty. We operate in Russia through a Russia-based subsidiary and a joint venture which represent less than 1% of our total assets and revenue. On March 10, 2022, we announced that we were suspending business operations in Russia. We will honor existing contractual obligations, where possible, in a manner that fully complies with all sanctions and trade controls that have been imposed, but we will not pursue new business opportunities. While neither Russia nor Ukraine constitute a material portion of our business, the conflict could lead to disruption, instability and volatility in global markets and industries that could negatively impact our results of operations. We continue to monitor the evolving impacts of this conflict and its effect on the global economy and geopolitical landscape.

Supply Chain Challenges

The ongoing global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant challenges for global supply chains resulting in inflationary cost pressures, component shortages and transportation delays. As a result, we have incurred incremental costs for commodities and components used in our products as well as component shortages that have negatively impacted our sales and results of operations. We expect that these challenges will continue to have an impact on our businesses for the foreseeable future.

We continue to take proactive steps to limit the impact of these challenges and are working closely with our suppliers to ensure availability of products and implement other cost savings initiatives. In addition, we continue to invest in our supply chain to improve its resilience with a focus on automation, dual sourcing of critical components and localized manufacturing when feasible. To date, there has been limited disruption to the availability of our products, though it is possible that more significant disruptions could occur if these supply chain challenges continue.

Sale of Chubb Fire & Security Business

On January 3, 2022, we completed the Chubb Sale for net proceeds of $2.9 billion. Chubb, reported within our Fire & Security segment, delivers essential fire safety and security solutions from design and installation to monitoring, service and

maintenance across more than 17 countries around the globe. We recognized a gain on the sale of $1.1 billion which is subject to working capital and other adjustments as provided in the sale agreement.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

In early 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease known as COVID-19 as a global pandemic. In response, many countries implemented containment and mitigation measures to combat the outbreak, which severely restricted the level of economic activity and caused a significant contraction in the global economy. As a result, we took several preemptive actions to manage liquidity, preserve the health and safety of our employees and customers as well as maintain the continuity of our operations. The preparation of financial statements requires management to use judgments in making estimates and assumptions based on the relevant information available at the end of each period, which can have a significant effect on reported amounts. However, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, including a resurgence in cases and the spread of COVID-19 variants, management's judgments could change. While our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be negatively impacted, the extent of any continuing impact cannot be estimated with certainty at this time.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses. We believe that the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their potential significance to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. In "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our 2021 Form 10-K, we describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in the preparation of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

As a result of the Chubb Sale, we do not beneficially own any shares of Chubb common stock and no longer consolidate Chubb in our financial statements as of January 3, 2022. Therefore, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations only includes the financial results of Chubb in periods prior to the date of sale. As a result, prior period results may not be comparable to the current period. See Note 16 - Divestitures in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The following represents our consolidated net sales and operating results:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021		Period Change		% Change
Net sales	$	4,654	$	4,699	$	(45)	(1)	%

Net income attributable to common shareowners	$	1,379	$	384	$	995	259	%

Net Sales

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Net sales were $4.7 billion, a 1% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Organic	10	%
Foreign currency translation	(1)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(10)	%

Total % change	(1)	%

We continue to benefit from strong demand for energy-efficient, digitalized products and healthy building solutions. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, pricing improvements and higher volumes increased organic sales by 10% compared with the same period of 2021. The organic increase was primarily driven by our HVAC segment with continued strong demand in our North America residential and light commercial business and improved global end-markets in our Commercial HVAC business. Pricing improvements in our Fire & Security segment were the primary driver of growth compared with the prior year while supply chain and logistic constraints continue to be challenging. Refrigeration results were flat as certain supply chain and logistic constraints impacted sales. Refer to "Segment Review" below for a discussion of Net sales by segment.

Gross Margin

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, gross margin was $1.3 billion, a 7% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)		2022			2021
Net sales		$	4,654		$	4,699
Cost of products and services sold		(3,361)			(3,305)
Gross margin		$	1,293		$	1,394
Percentage of net sales		27.8		%	29.7		%

The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by the Chubb Sale which contributed $170 million of gross margin during the three months ended March 31, 2021. In addition, each of our segments continued to be impacted by the rising cost for commodities and components used in our products, certain supply chain constraints and higher freight costs. These impacts were offset by strong demand, price improvements and our continued focus on productivity initiatives. As a result, gross margin as a percentage of Net sales decreased by 190 basis points compared with the same period of 2021, which included a 20 basis point impact on gross margin as a percentage of Net sales due to the Chubb Sale.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating expenses, including Equity method investment net earnings, were $444 million, a 154% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)		2022			2021
Selling, general and administrative		$	(601)		$	(743)
Research and development		(125)			(121)
Equity method investment net earnings		58			38
Other income (expense), net		1,112			3
Total operating expenses		$	444		$	(823)
Percentage of net sales		(9.5)		%	17.5		%

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Selling, general and administrative expenses were $601 million, a 19% decrease

compared with the same period of 2021. The decrease is primarily due to the Chubb Sale on January 3, 2022. In addition, lower restructuring charges and the benefit provided by changes in the fair value of cash-settled equity awards further contributed to the decrease. In addition, the three months ended March 31, 2021 included $16 million of costs related to the Separation.

Research and development costs relate to new product development and new technology innovation. Due to the variable nature of program development schedules, year-over-year spending levels can fluctuate. In addition, we continue to invest to prepare for future energy efficiency and refrigerant regulation changes as well as digital controls technologies.

Investments over which we do not exercise control, but have significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Equity method investment net earnings were $58 million, a 53% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily related to higher earnings in HVAC joint ventures in Asia and North America.

Other income (expense), net primarily includes the impact of gains and losses related to the sale of businesses or interests in our equity method investments, foreign currency gains and losses on transactions that are denominated in a currency other than an entity's functional currency and hedging-related activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we completed the Chubb Sale and recognized a net gain on the sale of $1.1 billion.

Non-Operating Income (Expenses), net

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Non-operating income (expenses), net were $49 million, a 35% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)		2022		2021
Non-service pension (expense) benefit		$	(1)	$	18

Interest expense		$	(87)	$	(96)
Interest income		39		3
Interest (expense) income, net		$	(48)	$	(93)

Non-operating income (expenses), net		$	(49)	$	(75)

Non-operating income (expenses), net includes the results from activities other than normal business operations such as interest expense, interest income and the non-service components of pension and post-retirement obligations. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Interest expense was $87 million, a 9% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we completed tender offers to repurchase approximately $1.15 billion aggregate principal of our 2.242% Notes due 2025 and 2.493% Notes due 2027. Upon settlement, we wrote off $5 million of unamortized deferred financing costs in Interest expense and recognized a net gain of $33 million in Interest income. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we incurred a make-whole premium of $17 million and wrote-off $2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs in Interest expense as a result of the redemption of our $500 million 1.923% Notes originally due in February 2023.

Income Taxes


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
		2022		2021
Effective tax rate		17.8	%	21.0	%

The Company accounts for income tax expense in accordance with ASC 740, which requires an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for the full year to be applied to the respective interim period, taking into account year-to-date amounts and projected results for the full year. The effective tax rate was 17.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with 21.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate on the Chubb gain compared with our U.S. statutory rate and a favorable tax adjustment of $32 million associated with

foreign tax credits generated and expected to be utilized in the current year. The three months ended March 31, 2021 included a favorable tax adjustment of $21 million resulting from the re-organization of a German subsidiary.

SEGMENT REVIEW

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2021



Summary performance for each of our segments is as follows:
	Net Sales				Operating Profit				Operating Profit Margin
	For the Three Months Ended March 31,				For the Three Months Ended March 31,				For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021		2022		2021		2022		2021

Total segment	$	4,764	$	4,795	$	1,795	$	642	37.7	%	13.4	%

HVAC Segment

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Net sales in our HVAC segment were $3.0 billion, a 19% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	18	%
Foreign currency translation	(2)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	3	%


Total % change in Net sales	19	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 18% was driven by strong results across each of the segment's businesses compared with the prior year. Increased sales in our North America residential and light commercial business (26%) were driven by pricing improvements and strong end-market demand. Increased sales in our Commercial HVAC business (9%) benefited from pricing improvements and ongoing customer demand as our end-markets continue to improve from the COVID-19 pandemic. The business saw growth in each region, although sales in China were tempered by additional restrictions as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases. While current demand remains strong, supply chain and logistics constraints continue to be challenging, negatively impacting our sales and results of operations. In addition, results for 2021 reflected a significant rebound in demand after initial weakness associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

On June 1, 2021, the Commercial HVAC business acquired a 70% controlling stake in Guangdong Giwee Group and its subsidiaries ("Giwee") and subsequently acquired the remaining 30% ownership interest on September 7, 2021. Giwee is a China-based manufacturer offering a portfolio of HVAC products including variable refrigerant flow, modular chillers and light commercial air conditioners. The results of Giwee has been included in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of acquisition. The transaction added 2% to Net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Operating profit in our HVAC segment was $470 million, a 29% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	30	%

Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(1)	%


Total % change in Operating profit	29	%

The operational profit increase of 30% was primarily attributable to pricing improvements and higher sales volumes compared with the prior year. Higher earnings from equity method investments in North America and Asia also benefited operational profit. These amounts were partially offset by higher costs for commodities and components used in our products and higher freight and logistic costs. In addition, higher selling, general and administrative costs further impacted operating profit.

Refrigeration Segment

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Net sales in our Refrigeration segment were $976 million, a 3% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	1	%
Foreign currency translation	(4)	%



Total % change in Net sales	(3)	%

Organic sales increased 1% during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the prior year. Commercial refrigeration sales increased (5%) primarily due to pricing improvements and strong demand. These amounts were partially offset by continued supply chain constraints. Transport refrigeration sales decreased (1%) compared with the prior year. The three months ended March 31, 2021 reflected a significant rebound in demand associated with the cyclical decline that began in late 2019 as well as the demand for global transportation and COVID-19 vaccine-related cargo monitoring. While current demand remains strong, supply chain and logistics constraints continue to be challenging, negatively impacting our sales and results of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Operating profit in our Refrigeration segment was $107 million, a 16% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	(10)	%
Foreign currency translation	(4)	%

Restructuring	2	%
Other	(4)	%
Total % change in Operating profit	(16)	%

The decrease in operational profit of 10% was primarily attributable to higher costs for commodities and components used in our products and higher freight and logistic costs compared with the prior year. These amounts were partially offset by pricing improvements and favorable productivity initiatives that benefited factory costs. Higher selling costs and research and development activities further impacted operational profit as the segment had incremental investments in expanding its sales force and product development.

Fire & Security Segment

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Net sales in our Fire & Security segment were $818 million, a 37% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	4	%
Foreign currency translation	(1)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(40)	%


Total % change in Net sales	(37)	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 4% was primarily driven by pricing improvements and continued strong demand across our businesses. The segment primarily saw growth in Europe and the Americas as sales in Asia were tempered by additional restrictions as a result of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases. While current demand remains strong, supply chain constraints continue to be challenging, negatively impacting our sales and results of operations.

Acquisitions and divestitures, net primarily relates to the Chubb Sale completed on January 3, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Net sales in our Fire & Security segment were $1.3 billion, which included $548 million from our Chubb business. Absent the results of Chubb, Net sales increased 8% from $755 million to $818 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Operating profit in our Fire & Security segment was $1.2 billion, a 712% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	(7)	%

Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(25)	%
Restructuring	3	%
Other	741	%
Total % change in Operating profit	712	%

The decrease in operational profit of 7% was primarily attributable to higher costs for commodities and components used in our products and higher freight and logistics costs. In addition, unfavorable mix further impacted results compared with the prior year. These amounts were partially offset by pricing improvements.

Amounts reported in Other represent the net gain on the Chubb Sale of $1.1 billion completed on January 3, 2022. The gain was partially offset by transaction costs associated with this divestiture.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

We assess liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash necessary to fund our current and future cash requirements to support our business and strategic initiatives. In doing so, we review and analyze our cash on hand, working capital, debt service requirements and capital expenditures. We rely on operating cash flows as our primary source of liquidity. In addition, we have access to other sources of capital to finance our strategic initiatives and fund growth.

As of March 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 billion, of which approximately 23% was held by our foreign subsidiaries. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by reviewing available funds and the cost effectiveness with which we can access funds held by foreign subsidiaries. On occasion, we are required to maintain cash deposits in connection with contractual obligations related to acquisitions, divestitures or other legal obligations. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amount of such restricted cash was approximately $18 million and $39 million, respectively.

We maintain a $2.0 billion unsecured, unsubordinated commercial paper program which can be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital and potential acquisitions. In addition, we maintain our $2.0 billion Revolving Credit Facility that matures on April 3, 2025 which supports our commercial paper borrowing program and cash requirements. The Revolving Credit Facility has a commitment fee of 0.125% that is charged on unused commitments. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are available in U.S. Dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling and bear interest at a variable interest rate plus a ratings-based margin, which was 125 basis points as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, we had no borrowings outstanding under our commercial paper program and our Revolving Credit Facility.

We continue to actively manage and strengthen our business portfolio to meet the current and future needs of our customers. This is accomplished through research and development activities with a focus on new product development and new technology innovation as well as sustaining activities with a focus on improving existing products and reducing production costs. We also pursue potential acquisitions to complement existing products and services to enhance our product portfolio. In addition, we routinely conduct discussions, evaluate targets and enter into agreements regarding possible acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and equity investments to manage our business portfolio.

We believe that our available cash and operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating cash needs. Our committed credit facilities and access to the debt and equity markets provide additional sources of short-term and long-term capital to fund current operations, debt maturities and future investment opportunities. Although we believe that the arrangements currently in place permit us to finance our operations on acceptable terms and conditions, our access to and the availability of financing on acceptable terms and conditions in the future will be impacted by many factors, including: (1) our credit ratings or absence of credit ratings, (2) the liquidity of the overall capital markets and (3) the state of the economy, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all.

The Revolving Credit Facility and the indentures for the Long-term notes contain affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of these types, which among other things, limit our ability to incur additional liens, to make certain fundamental changes and to enter into sale and leaseback transactions. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants under the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness.

The following table presents our credit ratings and outlook as of March 31, 2022:

(1) The long-term rating for S&P was affirmed on May 14, 2021, and for Moody's on March 30, 2022. Fitch's long-term rating was affirmed on June 3, 2021.

(2) S&P revised its outlook to stable from negative on May 14, 2021.

The following table contains several key measures of our financial condition and liquidity:


(In millions)	March 31, 2022			December 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents	$	3,604		$	2,987

Total debt to total capitalization	54		%	58		%
Net debt to net capitalization	40		%	49		%

Borrowings and Lines of Credit

Our short-term obligations primarily consist of current maturities of long-term debt. Our long-term obligations primarily consist of long-term notes with maturity dates ranging between 2025 and 2050. Interest payments related to Long-term Notes are expected to approximate $247 million per year, reflecting an approximate weighted-average interest rate of 2.95%. Any borrowings from the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to variable interest rates. See Note 5 – Borrowings and Lines of Credit in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the terms of our long-term debt obligations.

On March 15, 2022, we commenced tender offers to repurchase up to $1.15 billion aggregate principal of our 2.242% Notes due 2025 and 2.493% Notes due 2027. The tender offers included payment of applicable accrued and unpaid interest up to the settlement date, along with a fixed spread for early repayment. Based on participation, we elected to settle the tender offers on March 30, 2022. The aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes validly tendered and accepted was approximately $1.15 billion and included $800 million of Notes due 2025 and $350 million of Notes due 2027. Upon settlement, we recognized a net gain of $33 million and wrote off $5 million of unamortized deferred financing costs.

Acquisitions and Divestitures

On January 3, 2022, we completed the Chubb Sale for net proceeds of $2.9 billion, subject to customary working capital and other adjustments. Consistent with our capital allocation strategy, the net proceeds will be used to fund investments in organic and inorganic growth initiatives and capital returns to shareowners as well as for general corporate purposes.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we acquired consolidated businesses and minority-owned businesses. The aggregate cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, totaled $9 million and was funded through cash on hand. See Note 15 – Acquisitions for additional information.

On February 6, 2022, we entered into a binding agreement to acquire a majority ownership stake in TCC for approximately $900 million. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Upon closing, Toshiba Corporation will retain a 5% ownership interest in TCC. The acquisition is expected to be funded through a combination of cash on hand and a $400 million Yen denominated term loan.

Share Repurchase Program

On July 27, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.1 billion of our outstanding common stock. The share repurchase program allows us to repurchase shares from time to time subject to market conditions and at our discretion in the open market or through one or more other public or private transactions and subject to compliance with certain tax obligations.

On December 14, 2021, we entered into the ASR Agreement to repurchase $500 million of our common stock pursuant to our existing share repurchase program. In accordance with the ASR Agreement, we received initial delivery of 7.6 million shares on January 4, 2022, representing approximately 80% of the expected share repurchases. The final number of shares under the ASR Agreement was based on the daily average of the volume-weighted average share price of our common stock over the term of the ASR Agreement. Upon final settlement, we received an additional 2.7 million shares on February 8, 2022 and recognized $500 million in Treasury stock as a reduction in equity.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 15.7 million shares of our common stock which included shares repurchased under the ASR Agreement. The total aggregate purchase price was $741 million. Shares repurchased are held in Treasury stock in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Dividends

We paid dividends on common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2022, totaling $129 million. On April 14, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock payable on May 19, 2022 to shareowners of record at the close of business on April 29, 2022.

Discussion of Cash Flows


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Net cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	(202)	$	184
Investing activities	2,820		(49)
Financing activities	(2,020)		(643)
Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	(1)		(9)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	597	$	(517)

Cash flows from operating activities primarily represent inflows and outflows associated with our operations. Primary activities include net income from operations adjusted for non-cash transactions, working capital changes and changes in other assets and liabilities. The year-over-year decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by higher working capital balances during the current period. Continued strong demand and an increase of safety stock due to supply chain constraints led to higher inventory balances. In addition, higher accounts receivable balances due to increased sales more than offset higher accounts payable balances.

Cash flows from investing activities primarily represent inflows and outflows associated with long-term assets. Primary activities include capital expenditures, acquisitions, divestitures and proceeds from the sale of fixed assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by investing activities was $2.8 billion. The primary driver of the inflow related to the net proceeds from the Chubb Sale. This amount was partially offset by the acquisition of several businesses and minority-owned businesses, which totaled $9 million, net of cash acquired and $56 million of capital expenditures. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities was $49 million. The primary driver of the outflow related to capital expenditures of $53 million. This amount was partially offset by the settlement of derivative contracts of $8 million.

Cash flows from financing activities primarily represent inflows and outflows associated with equity or borrowings. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $2.0 billion. The primary driver of the outflow related to the settlement of our tender offers for $1.15 billion. In addition, we paid $129 million in dividends to our common shareowners and paid $734 million to repurchase shares of our common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash used in financing activities was $643 million. The primary driver of the outflow related to the redemption of Long-term notes of $500 million. In addition, we paid $104 million in dividends to our common shareowners and paid $36 million to repurchase shares of our common stock.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There has been no significant change in our exposure to market risk during the three months ended March 31, 2022. For discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Market Risk and Risk Management" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and the Vice President, Controller ("Controller") of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, our CEO, CFO and Controller have concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO, CFO and Controller, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

See Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities in the Notes to the "Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" for information regarding legal proceedings.

Except as otherwise noted previously, there have been no material developments in legal proceedings. For previously reported information about legal proceedings refer to "Business – Legal Proceedings" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as noted below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s risk factors from those disclosed in "Risk Factors" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

We may be affected by global economic, capital market and geopolitical conditions, and conditions in the construction, transportation and infrastructure industries in particular.

Our business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in global economic conditions and geopolitical risks and conditions, including credit market conditions, levels of consumer and business confidence, fluctuations in residential, commercial and industrial construction activity, pandemic health issues (including COVID-19 and its effects), natural disasters, commodity prices, energy costs, interest rates, inflation, foreign exchange rates, levels of government spending and deficits, trade policies (including tariffs, boycotts and sanctions), military conflicts, acts of terrorism, regulatory changes, actual or anticipated defaults on sovereign debt and other challenges that could affect the global economy.

These economic and political conditions affect our business in a number of ways. In March 2022, we suspended business operations in Russia by ceasing to pursue new business opportunities while continuing to fulfill existing contracts for equipment, service and parts, where possible, in a manner that fully complies with applicable sanctions and trade controls. Our sales, operations and supply chain in Russia and Ukraine are not material to Carrier. However, the military conflict between the two countries and attendant geopolitical environment may continue to negatively impact the global economy and major financial markets, and may result in additional increases in commodity prices and supply-chain disruptions, including shortages of materials, higher costs for fuel and freight and increased transportation delays. In addition, the extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact the global economy remains uncertain. This military conflict and COVID-19 and the potential for an increase of their impact on global or regional economies, and the perception that such events may occur, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Furthermore, the tightening of credit in the capital markets could adversely affect the ability of our customers, including individual end-customers and businesses, to obtain financing for significant purchases and operations, which could result in a decrease in or cancellation of orders for our products and services. Similarly, tightening credit may adversely affect our supply base and increase the potential for one or more of our suppliers to experience financial distress or bankruptcy. Additionally, because we have a number of factories and suppliers in foreign countries, the imposition of tariffs or additional sanctions or unusually restrictive border crossing rules could adversely affect our supply chain, operations and overall business.

Our business and financial performance is also adversely affected by decreases in the general level of economic activity, such as decreases in business and consumer spending and construction (both residential and commercial as well as remodeling). In addition, our financial performance may be influenced by the production and utilization of transport equipment, including truck production cycles in North America and Europe.
