CARRIER GLOBAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Carrier Global Corporation is the 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"). The accompanying 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.

Acquisition of Toshiba Carrier Corporation

On February 6, 2022, the Company entered into a binding agreement to acquire a majority ownership interest in Toshiba Carrier Corporation (“TCC”), a variable refrigerant flow ("VRF") and light commercial HVAC joint venture between Carrier and Toshiba Corporation. The acquisition was completed on August 1, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. As a result, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of TCC are consolidated in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of the date of acquisition and reported within the Company’s HVAC segment. Upon closing, Toshiba Corporation retained a 5% ownership interest in TCC. See Note 15 – Acquisitions for additional information.

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.

Table of Contents

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 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and totaled $19 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

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 accompanying 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)	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Raw materials	$	822	$	559
Work-in-process	217		197
Finished goods	1,625		1,214

Inventories, net	$	2,664	$	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 $157 million and $154 million as of September 30, 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)	877		—		1		878

Foreign currency translation	(368)		(80)		(158)		(606)
Balance as of September 30, 2022	$	6,167	$	1,148	$	2,306	$	9,621

(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.

Annual Impairment Test

The Company tested its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment as part of its annual assessment. For each test except one, the Company qualitatively assessed all relevant events or circumstances that could impact the estimate of fair value and determined it was more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit and indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeded their carrying amount. The test for one reporting unit related to the TCC acquisition and the subsequent reorganization of the Company's Commercial HVAC reporting unit in order to create a separate Global Comfort Solutions reporting unit. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test on its Commercial HVAC reporting unit prior to the reorganization, the results of which did not indicate any goodwill impairment. The Company then reassigned goodwill among its Commercial HVAC and new Global Comfort Solutions reporting units using a relative fair value approach and performed a goodwill impairment assessment. The results did not indicate any goodwill impairment.

Japanese Term Loan Facility

On July 15, 2022, the Company entered into a five-year, JPY 54 billion (approximately $400 million) senior unsecured term loan facility with MUFG Bank Ltd., as administrative agent and lender, and certain other lenders (the "Japanese Term Loan Facility"). Borrowings under the Japanese Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate equal to the Tokyo Term Risk Free Rate plus 0.75%. In addition, the Japanese Term Loan Facility is subject to customary covenants including a covenant to maintain a maximum consolidated leverage ratio. On July 25, 2022, the Company borrowed JPY 54 billion under the Japanese Term Loan Facility and used the proceeds to fund a portion of the TCC acquisition and to pay related fees and expenses.

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 September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 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 September 30, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program.

Project Financing Arrangements

The Company is involved in long-term construction contracts in which it arranges project financing with certain customers. As a result, the Company issued $27 million and $108 million of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Long-term debt repayments associated with these financing arrangements during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $70 million and $170 million, respectively.

Debt Covenants

The Revolving Credit Facility, the indenture for the long-term Notes and the Japanese Term Loan Facility 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 September 30, 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. As a result, 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 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

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 in earnings in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In connection with the TCC acquisition, the Company funded a portion of the Yen-denominated purchase price with cash on hand by entering into cross currency swaps with SMBC Capital Markets, Inc. as syndication swap arranger, and certain other financial institutions. The fair value of the cross currency swaps are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using observable market inputs, such as forward, discount and interest rates as well as credit default swap spreads. The Company designated the cross currency swaps as a partial hedge of its investment in certain subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Japanese Yen in order to manage foreign currency translation risk. As a result, changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in Equity in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The remaining portion of the Yen-denominated purchase price was funded by the Japanese Term Loan Facility. The carrying value of the facility is translated on a recurring basis using the exchange rate at the end of the applicable period and approximates its fair value. The Company designated the Japanese Term Loan Facility as a partial hedge of its investment in certain subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Japanese Yen in order to manage foreign currency translation risk. As a result, changes in the carrying value of the Japanese Term Loan Facility associated with foreign exchange rate movements are recorded in Equity in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The following tables provide the valuation hierarchy classification of assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value and measured on a recurring basis in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet:

Total long-term Notes (1)	$	8,350	$	6,642	$	9,500	$	9,842

(1) Excludes debt discount and issuance costs.

The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is measured based on observable market inputs which are considered Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts and would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company's financing leases and project financing obligations, included in Long-term debt and Current portion of long-term debt on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, approximate fair value and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 8: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation plans in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, which requires a fair-value based method for measuring the value of stock-based compensation. Fair value is measured at the date of grant and is generally not adjusted for subsequent changes. The Company's stock-based compensation plans include programs for stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and performance share units.

Stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, is included in Cost of products sold, Selling, general and administrative and Research and development in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Stock-based compensation cost by award type was as follows:

Total stock-based compensation expense	$	18	$	26	$	42	$	75

(1) The cash settled awards are classified as liability awards and are measured at fair value at each balance sheet date.

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.

Share Repurchase Program

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. Shares acquired are recognized at cost and presented separately on the balance sheet as a reduction to Equity. In July 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $1.75 billion increase to the Company's existing $350 million share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.1 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock. During 2021, the Company repurchased 10.4 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $529 million.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 28.9 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.3 billion, which includes shares repurchased under the ASR Agreement. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has approximately $309 million remaining under the current authorization. In October 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $2.0 billion increase to the Company's existing share repurchase program.

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

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 9.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 37.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate on a $732 million non-cash gain resulting from the recognition of the Company's previously held TCC equity investments at fair value upon acquisition of TCC compared with the Company's U.S. statutory tax rate. In addition, the prior year included a net tax charge of $136 million primarily relating to the re-organizations and disentanglement of certain Chubb subsidiaries executed in advance of the planned divestiture of the Chubb business.

The effective tax rate was 15.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 31.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate on a $732 million non-cash gain resulting from the recognition of the Company's previously held TCC equity investments at fair value upon acquisition of TCC and the $1.1 billion Chubb gain compared with the Company's U.S. statutory rate. The nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a net tax charge of $136 million primarily relating to the re-organizations and disentanglement of certain Chubb subsidiaries executed in advance of the planned divestiture of the Chubb business, and a $43 million deferred tax charge associated with a tax rate increase in the United Kingdom enacted on June 10, 2021 with an effective date of April 2023. These amounts were partially offset by the recognition of 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 $10 million to $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.

Table of Contents

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

NOTE 15: ACQUISITIONS

Acquisitions are recorded using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, 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.

Toshiba Carrier Corporation

On February 6, 2022, the Company entered into a binding agreement to acquire a majority ownership interest in TCC for $891 million. TCC, a 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 included 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 acquisition was completed on August 1, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions and funded through the Japanese Term Loan Facility as well as with cash on hand. Upon closing, Toshiba Corporation retained a 5% ownership interest in TCC.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is as follows:


(In millions)	August 1, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents	$	462
Accounts receivable	393
Inventories	373
Other assets, current	74
Fixed assets	294
Intangible assets	965
Goodwill	866
Other assets	287
Accounts payable	(412)
Accrued liabilities	(445)
Contract liabilities, current	(21)
Other long-term liabilities	(496)
Net assets acquired	$	2,340
Less: Fair value of non-controlling interests	(22)
Less: Fair value of previously held TCC equity investments	(1,427)
Total cash consideration	$	891

The excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired was recognized as goodwill and totaled $866 million, which is not deductible for tax purposes. Accounts receivable and current liabilities were stated at their historical carrying value, which approximates fair value given the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The estimate of fair value for inventory and fixed assets was based on an assessment of the acquired assets' condition as well as an evaluation of the current market value of such assets.

The Company recorded intangible assets based on its preliminary estimate of fair value which consisted of the following:


(In millions)	Estimated Useful Life (in years)	Intangible Assets Acquired
Customer relationships	23	$	497
Technology	7	220
Trademark	26	180
Backlog	1	60
Land use rights	45	8
Total intangible assets acquired		$	965

The valuation of intangible assets was determined using an income approach methodology including the multi-period excess earnings method and the relief from royalty method. Key assumptions used in estimating future cash flows included projected revenue growth rates, profit margins, discount rates, customer attrition rates and royalty rates among others. The projected future cash flows are discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has not finalized the process of allocating TCC's purchase price and valuing the acquired assets and liabilities.

The Company previously accounted for its minority ownership in TCC under the equity method of accounting. In connection with the transaction, the carrying value of the Company's previously held TCC equity investments were recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition using an income approach methodology. As a result, the Company recognized a $732 million non-cash gain within Other income (expense), net on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of TCC are consolidated in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of the date of acquisition and reported within the Company's HVAC segment. During the

nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred $25 million of acquisition-related costs which are included within Selling, general and administrative on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company has not included pro forma financial information required under ASC 805 as the pro forma impact was not significant.

Other Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company acquired other consolidated businesses and minority-owned businesses. The aggregate cash paid, net of cash acquired, totaled $43 million and was funded through cash on hand. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was recognized as goodwill and totaled $12 million.

NOTE 16: DIVESTITURES

Sale of Chubb Fire & Security Business

On January 3, 2022, the Company completed the Chubb Sale for net proceeds of $2.9 billion. Chubb, which was reported within the Company’s Fire & Security segment, delivered essential fire safety and security solutions from design and installation to monitoring, service and maintenance across more than 17 countries around the globe. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized a net gain on the sale of $1.1 billion, which is included in Other income (expense), net on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The following table summarizes Chubb's assets and liabilities classified as held for sale:

The sale agreement included several customary provisions to settle working capital and other transaction-related items as of the date of sale. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the parties finalized these amounts in accordance with the terms of the sale agreement. As a result, the Company recorded an accrual of $7 million and a corresponding reduction to the net gain on sale, which is included in Other income (expense), net on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Payment is expected to be made to APi in the fourth quarter of 2022.

NOTE 19: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Company is involved in various litigation, claims and administrative proceedings, including those related to environmental (including asbestos) and legal matters. 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)	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Environmental reserves included in Accrued liabilities	$	29	$	29
Environmental reserves included in Other long-term liabilities	203		191
Total Environmental reserves	$	232	$	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's asbestos liabilities and related insurance recoveries are as follows:


(In millions)	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Asbestos liabilities included in Accrued liabilities	$	17	$	17
Asbestos liabilities included in Other long-term liabilities	214		220
Total Asbestos liabilities	$	231	$	237

Asbestos-related recoveries included in Other assets, current	$	5	$	5
Asbestos-related recoveries included in Other assets	91		93
Total Asbestos-related recoveries	$	96	$	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 to dismiss was fully briefed as of December 3, 2021 and the court held oral argument on the motion on July 14, 2022. On September 30, 2022, the court dismissed the complaint against all defendants, with prejudice. The court entered judgment for the defendants on October 4, 2022. The deadline for seeking appellate review of the ruling is November 3, 2022.

Aqueous Film Forming Foam Litigation

As of September 30, 2022, the Company has been named as a defendant in more than 2,800 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 250 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 manufactured using a process known as ECF, and that this process was used exclusively by 3M. They also allege that PFOA contamination has resulted from the use of AFFF manufactured using a different process, known as telomerization, and that this process was used exclusively by the other AFFF manufacturers (including National Foam and Angus Fire). 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 firefighters’ protective outerwear, 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.

The defendants moved for summary judgment on the government contractor defense, which potentially applies to AFFF sold to or used by the U.S. government. After full briefing and oral argument, on September 16, 2022, the MDL court declined to enter summary judgment for the defendants. The defense, however, remains available at any trial to which it applies.

On September 23, 2022, after completion of discovery, the MDL court selected one water provider case, the City of Stuart, FL v. 3M, et al., for a bellwether trial. That trial is tentatively scheduled for June 2023. The court has set a briefing schedule for case-specific summary judgment motions and other pretrial motions. That briefing is expected to conclude in February 2023. The MDL court has ordered that the bellwether process for personal injury cases will begin in 2023. The court has not yet outlined details on that process or its timing.

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 and other defendants are also party to one action in Arizona state court brought by a firefighter claiming that occupational exposure to AFFF has caused him certain personal injuries. That case is not eligible for transfer to the MDL at this time. 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, liabilities of $34 million and $383 million are included within the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within Accrued Liabilities and Other Long-Term Liabilities as of September 30, 2022, respectively. 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 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 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 October 27, 2022, appearing below, states that the firm did not audit and does not express an opinion on the accompanying 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 accompanying 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.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareowners of Carrier Global Corporation

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 September 30, 2022, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income (loss) and of changes in equity for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 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.

Recent Developments

Acquisition of Toshiba Carrier Corporation

On February 6, 2022, we entered into a binding agreement to acquire a majority ownership interest in TCC, a VRF and light commercial HVAC joint venture between Carrier and Toshiba Corporation. TCC 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 included 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 acquisition was completed on August 1, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. As a result, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of TCC are consolidated in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of the date of acquisition and reported within our HVAC segment. Upon closing, Toshiba Corporation retained a 5% ownership interest in TCC.

Russia's Invasion of Ukraine

In February 2022, Russian forces initiated 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 operated in Russia through a Russia-based subsidiary and a joint venture which represents less than 1% of our total assets and revenue. On March 10, 2022, we announced that we were suspending business operations in Russia, honoring existing contractual obligations in a manner that fully complies with all sanctions and trade controls imposed. As of September 30, 2022, we remain on track to cease all operations in Russia this year. 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, which was reported within our Fire & Security segment, delivered essential fire safety and security solutions from design and installation to monitoring, service and maintenance across more than 17 countries around the globe. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized a gain on the sale of $1.1 billion. The sale agreement included several customary provisions to settle working capital and other transaction-related items as of the date of sale. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the parties finalized these amounts in accordance with the terms of 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 accompanying 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 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As a result of the Chubb Sale, we do not have any remaining ownership interest in Chubb 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 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The results of operations of TCC are included in our consolidated results since the acquisition date of August 1, 2022. Prior to the acquisition, we previously accounted for our minority ownership in TCC under the equity method of accounting and recognized our portion of earnings within Equity method investment in net earnings as part of operating expenses. As a result, prior period results may not be comparable to the current period. See Note 15 - Acquisitions in the Notes to the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared with the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

The following represents our consolidated net sales and operating results:

Net Sales

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales were $5.5 billion, a 2% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30, 2022
Organic	8	%
Foreign currency translation	(4)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(2)	%

Total % change	2	%

Organic sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by 8% compared with the same period of 2021. We continue to benefit from the demand for energy-efficient, digital products and healthy building solutions. In addition, pricing improvements more than offset inflationary impacts in each of our segments. The organic increase was primarily driven by our HVAC segment due to pricing improvements in our North America residential and light commercial business and improved global end-markets in our Commercial HVAC business. Our Refrigeration segment benefited from pricing improvements, but continued supply chain and logistic constraints as well as weakness in Europe impacted results. 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. Refer to "Segment Review" below for a discussion of Net sales by segment.

Gross Margin

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, gross margin was $1.5 billion, an 8% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)	2022			2021
Net sales	$	5,451		$	5,341
Cost of products and services sold	(3,974)			(3,740)
Gross margin	$	1,477		$	1,601
Percentage of net sales	27.1		%	30.0		%

Gross margin decreased by $124 million compared with the three months ended September 30, 2021. A main driver of the decrease related to the incremental costs of products and services sold associated with TCC since the date of acquisition, which included inventory step-up, backlog amortization and intangible asset amortization resulting from the recognition of acquired assets at fair value. These costs had a 100 basis point impact on gross margin as a percentage of Net sales. In addition, each of our segments continue to be impacted by the higher cost of commodities and components used in our products, certain supply chain constraints and higher freight costs. However, these impacts were more than offset by ongoing customer demand, pricing improvements and our continued focus on productivity initiatives. Although pricing improvements more than offset inflationary impacts and supply chain challenges, gross margin as a percentage of Net sales decreased by 290 basis points compared with the same period of 2021 including the impact of the TCC acquisition.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, operating expenses, including Equity method investment net earnings, were $49 million, a 106% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)	2022			2021
Selling, general and administrative	$	(624)		$	(748)
Research and development	(143)			(123)
Equity method investment net earnings	63			76
Other income (expense), net	753			22
Total operating expenses	$	49		$	(773)
Percentage of net sales	(0.9)		%	14.5		%

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Selling, general and administrative expenses were $624 million, a 17% 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. These amounts were partially offset by incremental selling, general and administrative expenses associated with TCC since the date of acquisition and $15 million of acquisition-related costs. The three months ended September 30, 2021 included $14 million of costs related to the Chubb Sale.

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 and in 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 September 30, 2022, Equity method investment net earnings were $63 million, a 17% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily associated with the increase in our ownership interest in TCC on August 1, 2022. As a result, TCC is no longer accounted for under the equity method of accounting since the date of acquisition.

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. In connection with the TCC acquisition, the carrying value of our previously held TCC equity investments were recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. As a result, we recognized a $732 million non-cash gain associated with the increase in our ownership interest. In addition, we recognized a $7 million charge resulting from the settlement of working capital and other transaction-related items associated with the Chubb Sale during the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-Operating Income (Expenses), net

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Non-operating income (expenses), net was $56 million, a 7% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Non-service pension (expense) benefit	$	—	$	14

Interest expense	$	(71)	$	(76)
Interest income	15		2
Interest (expense) income, net	$	(56)	$	(74)

Non-operating income (expenses), net	$	(56)	$	(60)

Income Taxes


	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2022		2021
Effective tax rate	9.4	%	37.5	%

We account 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 9.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 37.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate on a $732 million non-cash gain resulting from the recognition of our previously held TCC equity investments at fair value upon acquisition of TCC compared with our U.S. statutory tax rate. In addition, the prior year included a net tax charge $136 million primarily relating to the re-organizations and disentanglement of certain Chubb subsidiaries executed in advance of the planned divestiture of Chubb business.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared with the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

The following represents our consolidated net sales and operating results:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)	2022		2021		Period Change		% Change

Net income attributable to common shareowners	$	3,264	$	1,340	$	1,924	144	%

Net Sales

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales were $15.3 billion, a 1% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
Organic	9	%
Foreign currency translation	(3)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(7)	%

Total % change	(1)	%

Organic sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by 9% compared with the same period of 2021. We continue to benefit from the demand for energy-efficient, digital products and healthy building solutions. In addition, pricing improvements more than offset inflationary impacts in each of our segments. The organic increase was primarily driven by our HVAC segment due to pricing improvements in our North America residential and light commercial business and improved global end-markets in our Commercial HVAC business. Refrigeration results benefited from pricing improvements which more than offset ongoing supply chain and logistic constraints. 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. Refer to "Segment Review" below for a discussion of Net sales by segment.

Gross Margin

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, gross margin was $4.2 billion, a 9% decrease compared with the same period

of 2021. The components were as follows:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)		2022			2021
Net sales		$	15,316		$	15,480
Cost of products and services sold		(11,099)			(10,866)
Gross margin		$	4,217		$	4,614
Percentage of net sales		27.5		%	29.8		%

Gross margin decreased by $397 million compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2021. A main driver of the decrease related to incremental costs of products and services sold associated with TCC since the date of acquisition, which included inventory step-up, backlog amortization and intangible asset amortization resulting from the recognition of acquired assets at fair value. These costs had a 40 basis point impact on gross margin as a percentage of Net sales. In addition, each of our segments continue to be impacted by the higher cost of commodities and components used in our products, certain supply chain constraints and higher freight costs. However, these impacts were more than offset by ongoing customer demand, pricing improvements and our continued focus on productivity initiatives. Although pricing improvements more than offset inflationary impacts and supply chain challenges, gross margin as a percentage of Net sales decreased by 230 basis points compared with the same period of 2021.

Operating Expenses

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, operating expenses, including Equity method investment net earnings, were $135 million, a 94% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)		2022			2021
Selling, general and administrative		$	(1,839)		$	(2,304)
Research and development		(390)			(369)
Equity method investment net earnings		222			201
Other income (expense), net		1,872			40
Total operating expenses		$	(135)		$	(2,432)
Percentage of net sales		0.9		%	15.7		%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.8 billion, a 20% 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. These amounts were partially offset by incremental selling, general and administrative expenses associated with TCC since the date of acquisition and $28 million of acquisition-related costs. The nine months ended September 30, 2021 included $29 million of costs related to the Chubb Sale and $19 million of costs related to the Separation.

Investments over which we do not exercise control, but have significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Equity method investment net earnings were $222 million, a 10% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily related to a $27 million gain on the sale of two minority owned subsidiaries by one of our joint ventures. In addition, higher earnings in HVAC joint ventures in Asia and North America further benefited earnings. These amounts were partially offset by the increase in our ownership interest in TCC on August 1, 2022. As a result, TCC is no longer accounted for under the equity method of accounting since the date of acquisition.

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. In connection with the TCC acquisition, the carrying value of our previously held TCC equity investments were recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. As a result, we recognized a $732 million non-cash gain associated with the increase in our ownership interest. In addition, we completed the Chubb Sale and recognized a net gain on the sale of $1.1 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-Operating Income (Expenses), net

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Non-operating income (expenses), net was $167 million, an 11% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components were as follows:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)		2022		2021
Non-service pension (expense) benefit		$	(2)	$	51

Interest expense		$	(226)	$	(247)
Interest income		61		9
Interest (expense) income, net		$	(165)	$	(238)

Non-operating income (expenses), net		$	(167)	$	(187)

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 nine months ended September 30, 2022, Interest expense was $226 million, a 9% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 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 nine months ended September 30, 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


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2022		2021
Effective tax rate		15.6	%	31.4	%

We account 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 15.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 31.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate on a $732 million non-cash gain resulting from the recognition of our previously held TCC equity investments at fair value upon acquisition of TCC and the $1.1 billion Chubb gain compared with the Company's U.S. statutory rate. The nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a net tax charge of $136 million primarily relating to the re-organizations and disentanglement of certain Chubb subsidiaries executed in advance of the planned divestiture of our Chubb business and a $43 million deferred tax charge associated with a tax rate increase in the United Kingdom enacted on June 10, 2021 with an effective date of April 2023. These amounts were partially offset by the recognition of a favorable tax adjustment of $21 million resulting from the re-organization of a German subsidiary.

SEGMENT REVIEW

We have three operating segments:

•The Fire & Security segment provides a wide range of residential, commercial and industrial technologies designed to help protect people and property.

We determine our segments based on how our Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (the "CODM"), allocates resources, assesses performance and makes operational decisions. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the financial performance of each of our segments based on Net sales and Operating profit. Adjustments to reconcile segment reporting to the consolidated results are included in Note 17 - Segment Financial Data.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared with Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

Summary performance for each of our segments is as follows:


	Net Sales				Operating Profit				Operating Profit Margin
	Three Months Ended September 30,				Three Months Ended September 30,				Three Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)	2022		2021		2022		2021		2022		2021

Total segment	$	5,562	$	5,442	$	1,572	$	874	28.3	%	16.1	%

HVAC Segment

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales in our HVAC segment were $3.7 billion, a 22% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	13	%
Foreign currency translation	(3)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	12	%


Total % change in Net sales	22	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 13% was driven by continued strong results across each of the segment's businesses. Increased sales in our North America residential and light commercial business (up 12%) were primarily driven by pricing improvements during the period. Commercial HVAC (up 15%) benefited from pricing improvements and ongoing customer demand in our end-markets. The business saw continued growth in North America and strong results in Asia compared with the prior period. Increased sales in our Global Comfort Solutions business (up 11%) were primarily driven by pricing improvements. While current demand remains strong, supply chain and logistics constraints continue to be challenging, negatively impacting our sales and results of operations.

On August 1, 2022, the Commercial HVAC business acquired a majority ownership interest in TCC, a VRF and light commercial HVAC joint venture between Carrier and Toshiba Corporation. The results of TCC have been included in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of acquisition. The transaction added 12% to Net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and is included in Acquisitions and divestitures, net.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Operating profit in our HVAC segment was $1.3 billion, a 129% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	—	%
Foreign currency translation	(1)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	5	%
Restructuring	1	%
Other	124	%
Total % change in Operating profit	129	%

Operational profit was flat compared with the prior year. Pricing improvements, higher volume and productivity initiatives benefited operational profit during the period. These amounts were partially offset by the higher costs of commodities and components used in our products as well as higher freight and logistic costs compared with the prior year. In addition, lower earnings from equity method investments further impacted operational profit as TCC is now included in the segments consolidated results since the date of acquisition.

Acquisitions and divestitures, net primarily related to the results of operations associated with the acquisition of TCC. The transaction added 5% to Operating profit during the three months ended September 30, 2022. In connection with the TCC acquisition, the carrying value of our previously held TCC equity investments were recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. As a result, we recognized a $732 million non-cash gain associated with the increase in our ownership interest in Other.

Refrigeration Segment

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales in our Refrigeration segment were $0.9 billion, a 9% 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	(8)	%



Total % change in Net sales	(9)	%

The organic decrease in Net sales of 1% was driven by lower volumes compared with the prior year. Commercial refrigeration sales were flat compared with the prior year, primarily driven by lower volumes in Europe as economic conditions and inflationary cost pressures impacted end-market demand. These impacts were partially offset by pricing improvements and growth in Asia. Transport refrigeration sales (down 1%) decreased primarily due to continued supply chain constraints impacting component availability. These impacts were partially offset by pricing improvements, strong growth in North America, the continued 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 September 30, 2022, Operating profit in our Refrigeration segment was $116 million, a 2% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	5	%
Foreign currency translation	(7)	%

Restructuring	(1)	%
Other	1	%
Total % change in Operating profit	(2)	%

The increase in operational profit of 5% was primarily attributable to pricing improvements compared with the prior year. In addition, favorable productivity initiatives and lower selling, general and administrative costs further benefited operational profit. These amounts were partially offset by the higher costs of commodities and components used in our products as well as higher freight and logistic costs.

Fire & Security Segment

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales in our Fire & Security segment were $905 million, a 34% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	5	%
Foreign currency translation	(3)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(36)	%


Total % change in Net sales	(34)	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 5% was primarily driven by pricing improvements compared with the prior year. The segment primarily saw growth in both residential and commercial sales in the Americas and Europe as sales in China decreased as a result of current economic conditions and reduced end-market demand. Global industrial sales also benefited segment results with pricing improvements and strong demand. While current demand remains strong, supply chain 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.

Acquisitions and divestitures, net primarily relates to the prior year results of our Chubb business, the sale of which was completed on January 3, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, Net sales in our Fire & Security segment were $1.4 billion, which included $520 million from our Chubb business. Absent the results of Chubb, Net sales increased 6% from $857 million to $905 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Operating profit in our Fire & Security segment was $142 million, a 22% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	1	%
Foreign currency translation	(2)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(19)	%
Restructuring	1	%
Other	(3)	%
Total % change in Operating profit	(22)	%

The increase in operational profit of 1% was primarily attributable to pricing improvements compared with the prior year. In addition, productivity initiatives also benefited operational profit. These amounts were partially offset by the higher costs of commodities and components used in our products as well as higher freight and logistics costs.

Acquisitions and divestitures, net primarily relates to the prior year results of our Chubb business, the sale of which was completed on January 3, 2022. Amounts reported during the three months ended September 30, 2021 include $13 million of transaction costs associated with the divestiture. In addition, amounts reported in Other include a $7 million charge resulting from the settlement of working capital and other transaction-related items associated with the Chubb Sale.

HVAC Segment

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales in our HVAC segment were $10.1 billion, a 17% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	13	%

Acquisitions and divestitures, net	6	%

Other	(2)	%
Total % change in Net sales	17	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 13% was driven by continued strong results across each of the segment's businesses. Increased sales in our North America residential and light commercial business (up 16%) were driven by pricing improvements and end-market demand. Increased sales in our Commercial HVAC business (up 8%) benefited from pricing improvements and ongoing customer demand in our end-markets. The business saw growth in each region including Asia as demand increased after a resurgence of COVID-19 cases and additional restrictions imposed earlier in the year. 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 August 1, 2022, the Commercial HVAC business acquired a majority ownership interest in TCC, a VRF and light commercial HVAC joint venture between Carrier and Toshiba Corporation. The results of TCC have been included in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of acquisition. The transaction added 5% to Net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and is included in Acquisitions and divestitures, net.

On June 1, 2021, the Commercial HVAC business acquired a 70% controlling interest 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 have been included in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of acquisition. The transaction added 1% to Net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and is included in Acquisitions and divestitures, net.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Operating profit in our HVAC segment was $2.4 billion, a 57% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	8	%

Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(1)	%
Restructuring	1	%
Other	49	%
Total % change in Operating profit	57	%

The operational profit increase of 8% was primarily attributable to pricing improvements compared with the prior year. Higher earnings from equity method investments in Asia and North America also benefited operational profit and included a $27 million gain on the sale of two minority owned subsidiaries by one of our joint ventures. These amounts were partially offset by the increase in our ownership interest in TCC on August 1, 2022. As a result, TCC is no longer accounted for under the equity method of accounting since the date of acquisition. In addition, productivity initiatives provided further benefits to operational profit. These amounts were partially offset by the higher costs of commodities and components used in our products as well as higher freight and logistic costs.

In connection with the TCC acquisition, the carrying value of our previously held TCC equity investments were recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. As a result, we recognized a $732 million non-cash gain associated with the increase in our ownership interest in Other. In addition, amounts reported in Other include a $22 million charge resulting from a litigation matter recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Refrigeration Segment

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales in our Refrigeration segment were $2.9 billion, a 3% decrease compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Net Sales
Organic	3	%
Foreign currency translation	(6)	%



Total % change in Net sales	(3)	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 3% was driven by strong demand across each of the segment's businesses. Commercial refrigeration sales increased (up 4%) primarily due to pricing improvements compared with the prior year. These amounts were partially offset by continued supply chain constraints. Transport refrigeration sales increased (up 2%) primarily due to pricing improvements and higher volumes associated with component availability during the period. The nine months ended September 30, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022, Operating profit in our Refrigeration segment was $370 million, flat compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	6	%
Foreign currency translation	(7)	%


Other	1	%
Total % change in Operating profit	—	%

The increase in operational profit of 6% was primarily attributable to pricing improvements compared with the prior year. In addition, favorable productivity initiatives and lower selling, general and administrative costs further benefited operational profit. These amounts were partially offset by the higher costs of commodities and components used in our products and higher freight and logistic costs. Amounts reported in Other primarily represent a $7 million gain on the sale of our interest in a cost method investment during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Fire & Security Segment

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Net sales in our Fire & Security segment were $2.6 billion, a 36% 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	(2)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(38)	%


Total % change in Net sales	(36)	%

The organic increase in Net sales of 4% was primarily driven by pricing improvements compared with the prior year. The segment primarily saw growth in both residential and commercial sales in the Americas and Europe as sales in China decreased as a result of current economic conditions and reduced end-market demand. Global industrial sales also benefited segment results with pricing improvements and strong demand. While current demand remains strong, supply chain 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.

Acquisitions and divestitures, net primarily relates to the prior year results of our Chubb business, the sale of which was completed on January 3, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Net sales in our Fire & Security segment were $4.1 billion, which included $1.6 billion from our Chubb business. Absent the results of Chubb, Net sales increased 6% from $2.5 billion to $2.6 billion.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Operating profit in our Fire & Security segment was $1.5 billion, a 211% increase compared with the same period of 2021. The components of the year-over-year change were as follows:


	Operating Profit
Operational	(5)	%
Foreign currency translation	(2)	%
Acquisitions and divestitures, net	(16)	%
Restructuring	3	%
Other	231	%
Total % change in Operating profit	211	%

The decrease in operational profit of 5% was primarily attributable to the higher costs of commodities and components used in our products and higher freight and logistics costs. In addition, unfavorable mix and lower volumes further impacted results compared with the prior year. These amounts were partially offset by pricing improvements.

Acquisitions and divestitures, net primarily relates to the prior year results of our Chubb business, the sale of which was completed on January 3, 2022. Amounts reported during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 include $28 million of transaction costs associated with the divestiture. Amounts reported in Other represent the net gain on the Chubb Sale of $1.1 billion.

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 September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.0 billion, of which approximately 38% 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amount of such restricted cash was approximately $6 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 September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 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 September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants under the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness.

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 accompanying 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 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

On July 15, 2022, we entered into a five-year, JPY 54 billion (approximately $400 million) Japanese Term Loan Facility. Borrowings bear interest at a rate equal to the Tokyo Term Risk Free Rate plus 0.75%. In addition, it is subject to customary covenants including a covenant to maintain a maximum consolidated leverage ratio. On July 25, 2022, we borrowed JPY 54 billion under the Japanese Term Loan Facility and used the proceeds to fund a portion of the TCC acquisition and to pay related fees and expenses.

Acquisitions and Divestitures

On January 3, 2022, we completed the Chubb Sale for net proceeds of $2.9 billion. 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. The sale agreement included several customary provisions to settle working capital and other transaction-related items as of the date of sale. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the parties finalized these amounts in accordance with the terms of the sale agreement. See Note 16 - Divestitures for additional information.

On February 6, 2022, we entered into a binding agreement to acquire a majority ownership interest in TCC for $891 million. The transaction was completed on August 1, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions and funded through the Japanese Term Loan Facility as well as with cash on hand. Upon closing, Toshiba Corporation retained a 5% ownership interest in TCC. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we acquired other consolidated businesses and minority-owned businesses. The aggregate cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, totaled $43 million and was funded through cash on hand. See Note 15 – Acquisitions for additional information.

Share Repurchase Program

We may purchase our outstanding common stock 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 our obligations under certain tax agreements. In July 2021, our Board of Directors approved a $1.75 billion increase to our existing $350 million share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.1 billion of our outstanding common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased 28.9 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.3 billion, which includes shares repurchased under the ASR Agreement. As of September 30, 2022, we have approximately $309 million remaining under the current authorization. In October 2022, our Board of Directors approved a $2.0 billion increase to our existing share repurchase program.

Dividends

We paid dividends on common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, totaling $384 million. In October 2022, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock payable on November 21, 2022 to shareowners of record at the close of business on October 28, 2022.

Discussion of Cash Flows


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Net cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	620	$	1,324
Investing activities	2,045		(426)
Financing activities	(2,584)		(1,225)
Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	(115)		(15)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(34)	$	(342)

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. Ongoing customer demand and an increase of safety stock due to supply chain constraints led to higher inventory balances. In addition, higher accounts receivable balances 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by investing activities was $2.0 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 TCC and several other businesses and minority-owned businesses, which totaled $472 million, net of cash acquired and $213 million of capital expenditures. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $426 million. The primary driver of the outflow related to the acquisition of several businesses and a minority-owned business, which totaled $214 million, net of cash acquired and $206 million of capital expenditures.

Cash flows from financing activities primarily represent inflows and outflows associated with equity or borrowings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $2.6 billion. The primary driver of the outflow related to the payment of $1.3 billion to repurchase shares of our common stock. In addition, we settled our tender offers for $1.15 billion and paid $384 million in dividends to our common shareowners. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in financing activities was $1.2 billion. The primary driver of the outflow related to the redemption of long-term notes of $500 million. In addition, we paid $313 million in dividends to our common shareowners and paid $275 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 and nine months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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 September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Risk Factors, and other risks and uncertainties listed from time to time in our filings with the SEC.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

See Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities in the Notes to the accompanying 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.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The following table provides information about our purchases during the three months ended September 30, 2022 of equity securities that are registered by us pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

Total	6,122	$40.41	6,122	$309

(1) Excludes broker commissions.

In July 2021, our Board of Directors approved a $1.75 billion increase to our existing $350 million share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.1 billion of our outstanding common stock. This 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 agreements.

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. Upon final settlement, we received an additional 2.7 million shares on February 8, 2022.

In October 2022, our Board of Directors approved a $2.0 billion increase to our existing share repurchase program.
