NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at June 30, 2019 and for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are unaudited, but in the opinion of management include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The results reported in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes in our Annual Report to Shareowners (2018 Annual Report) incorporated by reference in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for calendar year 2018 (2018 Form 10-K).
Note 1: Acquisitions, Dispositions, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Business Acquisitions. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, our investment in business acquisitions was $32 million, which consisted of small acquisitions at Otis.
On June 9, 2019, UTC entered into a merger agreement with Raytheon Company (“Raytheon”) providing for an all-stock merger of equals transaction.  The Raytheon merger agreement provides, among other things, that each share of Raytheon common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Raytheon merger (except for shares held by Raytheon as treasury stock) will be converted into the right to receive 2.3348 shares of UTC common stock.  Upon the closing of the Raytheon merger, Raytheon will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of UTC, and UTC will change its name to Raytheon Technologies Corporation. The Raytheon merger is expected to close in the first half of 2020 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals, the approval of both Raytheon’s and our shareowners, and the completion of UTC's previously announced separation of its Otis and Carrier businesses.
On November 26, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Rockwell Collins (the "Rockwell Merger"), a leader in aviation and high-integrity solutions for commercial and military customers as well as leading-edge avionics, flight controls, aircraft interior and data connectivity solutions. Under the terms of the Rockwell merger agreement, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Rockwell Collins issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Rockwell Merger (other than shares held by Rockwell Collins, the Company, Riveter Merger Sub Corp or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries) was converted into the right to receive (1) $93.33 in cash, without interest, and (2) 0.37525 shares of Company common stock (together, the “Merger Consideration”), less any applicable withholding taxes, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. The total aggregate consideration payable in the Rockwell Merger was $15.5 billion in cash ($14.9 billion net of cash acquired) and 62.2 million shares of Company common stock. In addition, $7.8 billion of Rockwell Collins debt was outstanding at the time of the Rockwell Merger. This equated to a total enterprise value of $30.6 billion, including the $7.8 billion of Rockwell Collins' outstanding debt.

The cash consideration utilized for the Rockwell Merger was partially financed through the previously disclosed issuance of $11.0 billion aggregate principal notes on August 16, 2018 for net proceeds of $10.9 billion. For the remainder of the cash consideration, we utilized repatriated cash and cash equivalents and cash flow generated from operating activities.
Preliminary Allocation of Consideration Transferred to Net Assets Acquired:
The following amounts represent the preliminary determination of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the Rockwell Collins acquisition. The final determination of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities will be completed up to a one year measurement period from the date of acquisition as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, “Business Combinations”. As of June 30, 2019, the valuation studies necessary to determine the fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary, including the validation of the underlying cash flows used to determine the fair value of the identified intangible assets. The size and breadth of the Rockwell Collins acquisition necessitates use of the one year measurement period to adequately analyze all the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the acquisition date, including, but not limited to, intangible assets, inventory, real property, leases, deferred tax liabilities related to the unremitted earnings of

In order to allocate the consideration transferred for Rockwell Collins, the fair values of all identifiable assets and liabilities were established. For accounting and financial reporting purposes, fair value is defined under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal (most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Additionally, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by market participants. Use of different estimates and judgments could yield different results. Fair value adjustments to Rockwell Collins' identified assets and liabilities resulted in an increase in inventory and fixed assets of $282 million and $269 million, respectively. In determining the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, a review was conducted for any significant contingent assets or liabilities existing as of the acquisition date. The preliminary assessment did not note any significant contingencies related to existing legal or government action.

The fair values of the customer relationship and related program intangible assets, which include the related aerospace program original equipment (OEM) and aftermarket cash flows, were determined by using an “income approach." Under this approach, the net earnings attributable to the asset or liability being measured are isolated using the discounted projected net cash flows. These projected cash flows are isolated from the projected cash flows of the combined asset group over the remaining economic life of the intangible asset or liability being measured. Both the amount and the duration of the cash flows are considered from a market participant perspective. Our estimates of market participant net cash flows considered historical and projected pricing, remaining developmental effort, operational performance, including company specific synergies, aftermarket retention, product life cycles, material and labor pricing, and other relevant customer, contractual and market factors. Where appropriate, the net cash flows are probability-adjusted to reflect the uncertainties associated with the underlying assumptions as well as the risk profile of the net cash flows utilized in the valuation. The probability-adjusted future cash flows are then discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. The customer relationship and related program intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of the underlying programs of 10 to 20 years. The developed technology intangible asset is being amortized over the economic pattern of benefit. The fair value of the tradename intangible assets were determined utilizing the relief from royalty method which is a form of the income approach. Under this method, a royalty rate based on observed market royalties is applied to projected revenue supporting the tradename and discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate.  The tradename intangible assets have been determined to have an indefinite life. The intangible assets included above consist of the following:

We also identified customer contractual obligations on certain contracts with economic returns that are lower than could be realized in market transactions as of the acquisition date. We measured these liabilities under the measurement provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which is based on the price to transfer the obligation to a market participant at the measurement date, assuming that the liability will remain outstanding in the marketplace. Based on the estimated net cash outflows of the programs plus a reasonable contracting profit margin required to transfer the contracts to market participants, we recorded assumed liabilities of approximately $1,020 million. These liabilities will be liquidated in accordance with the underlying pattern of obligations, as reflected by the expenses incurred on the contracts. Total consumption of the contractual obligation for the next five years is expected to be as follows: $77 million in 2019, $129 million in 2020, $131 million in 2021, $132 million in 2022, and $119 million in 2023.
Acquisition-Related Costs:
Acquisition-related costs have been expensed as incurred. In the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, approximately $10 million and $50 million, respectively, of transaction and integration costs have been incurred. These costs were recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Supplemental Pro-Forma Data:
Rockwell Collins' results of operations have been included in UTC’s financial statements for the period subsequent to the completion of the acquisition on November 26, 2018. Rockwell Collins contributed sales of approximately $4.6 billion and operating profit of approximately $665 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The following unaudited supplemental pro-forma data presents consolidated information as if the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2017. The pro-forma results were calculated by combining the results of UTC with the stand-alone results of Rockwell Collins for the pre-acquisition periods, which were adjusted to account for certain costs that would have been incurred during this pre-acquisition period:

The unaudited supplemental pro-forma financial information does not reflect the potential realization of cost savings related to the integration of the two companies. Further, the pro-forma data should not be considered indicative of the results that would have occurred if the acquisition and related financing had been consummated on January 1, 2017, nor are they indicative of future results.
Dispositions. Cash inflows related to dispositions during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $133 million and primarily consisted of the dispositions of businesses held for sale associated with the Rockwell Collins acquisition. In accordance with conditions imposed for regulatory approval of the acquisition, Rockwell Collins was required to dispose of certain businesses. These businesses were held separate from UTC’s and Rockwell Collins' ongoing businesses pursuant to regulatory requirements. Definitive agreements to sell each of the businesses were entered into prior to the completion of UTC's acquisition of Rockwell Collins. The related assets and liabilities of these businesses had been accounted for as held for sale at fair value less cost to sell. As of December 31, 2018, assets held for sale of $175 million were included within Other assets, current and liabilities held for sale of $40 million were included within Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The major classes of assets and liabilities primarily include net Inventory of $51 million and net Fixed assets of $37 million. In the first quarter of 2019, Rockwell Collins completed the sale of all businesses which were held for sale as of December 31, 2018.

On November 26, 2018, the Company announced its intention to separate into three independent companies. Following the separations, the Company will operate as an aerospace company comprised of Collins Aerospace Systems and the Pratt & Whitney businesses, and Otis and Carrier will become independent companies. The proposed separations are expected to be effected through spin-offs of Otis and Carrier that are intended to be tax-free for the Company’s shareowners for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and are expected to be completed in the first half of 2020. Separation of Otis and Carrier from UTC via spin-off transactions will be subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including, among others, final approval by the Company’s Board of Directors, receipt of tax rulings in certain jurisdictions and/or a tax opinion from external counsel (as applicable), the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and effectiveness of Form 10 registration statements, and satisfactory completion of financing (subject to UTC’s agreement to consummate the distributions pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Raytheon merger agreement).

In addition to customer relationship intangible assets obtained through business combinations, customer relationship intangible assets include payments made to our customers to secure certain contractual rights. Such payments are capitalized when distinct rights are obtained and sufficient incremental cash flows to support the recoverability of the assets have been established. Otherwise, the applicable portion of the payments is expensed. We amortize these intangible assets based on the underlying pattern of economic benefit, which may result in an amortization method other than straight-line. In the aerospace industry, amortization based on the pattern of economic benefit generally results in lower amortization expense during the development period with amortization expense increasing as programs enter full production and aftermarket cycles. If a pattern of economic benefit cannot be reliably determined, a straight-line amortization method is used. We classify amortization of such payments as a reduction of sales. The collaboration intangible assets are amortized based upon the pattern of economic benefits as represented by the underlying cash flows.
Amortization of intangible assets for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $348 million and $722 million, respectively, compared with $232 million and $455 million for the same periods of 2018. The following is the expected amortization of intangible assets for the years 2019 through 2024, which reflects the pattern of expected economic benefit on certain aerospace intangible assets.

Note 2: Revenue Recognition
We account for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Performance Obligations. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. Some of our contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation, while others contain multiple performance obligations most commonly when a contract spans multiple phases of the product life-cycle such as development, production, maintenance and support. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price.
We consider the contractual consideration payable by the customer and assess variable consideration that may affect the total transaction price, including contractual discounts, contract incentive payments, estimates of award fees, unfunded contract value under U.S. Government contracts, and other sources of variable consideration, when determining the transaction price of each contract. We include variable consideration in the estimated transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance and our best judgment at the time. We also consider whether our contracts provide customers with significant financing. Generally, our contracts do not contain significant financing.
Timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations varies across our businesses due to our diverse product and service mix, customer base, and contractual terms.
Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO). RPO represents the aggregate amount of total contract transaction price that is unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied. As of June 30, 2019 our total RPO was approximately $125.1 billion compared to $115.5 billion as of December 31, 2018. Of the total RPO as of June 30, 2019, we expect approximately 45% will be recognized as sales over the following 24 months.
Capitalized Contract Costs. We incur costs for engineering and development of aerospace products directly related to existing or anticipated contracts with customers. Such costs generate or enhance our ability to satisfy our performance obligations under these contracts. We capitalize these costs as contract fulfillment costs to the extent the costs are recoverable from the associated contract margin and subsequently amortize the costs as the OEM products performance obligations are satisfied. In instances where intellectual property does not transfer to the customer, we defer the customer funding of OEM product engineering and development and recognize revenue when the performance obligations related to the OEM products are satisfied. Capitalized net contract fulfillment costs were $1,229 million and $914 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively and are recognized in Other assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Contract Assets and Liabilities. Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. We receive payments from customers based on the terms established in our contracts.

Contract assets increased $921 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to revenue recognition in excess of customer billings, primarily on Pratt & Whitney military and commercial aftermarket service agreements and various programs at Collins Aerospace Systems. Contract liabilities increased $620 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to customer billings in excess of revenue recognized on Pratt & Whitney commercial aftermarket service agreements, at Collins Aerospace across various programs, and on Otis maintenance contracts. We recognized revenue of $3.2 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2019 related to contract liabilities as of December 31, 2018.

The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock awards, including stock appreciation rights and stock options, when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the related stock awards during the period because the effect would be anti-dilutive. In addition, the computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock awards when the awards’ assumed proceeds exceed the average market price of the common shares during the period. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, the number of stock awards excluded from the computation was approximately 11.0 million and 13.0 million, respectively. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, the number of stock awards excluded from the computation was approximately 5.1 million.

At June 30, 2019, we had credit agreements with various banks permitting aggregate borrowings of up to $10.35 billion, including: a $2.20 billion revolving credit agreement and a $2.15 billion multicurrency revolving credit agreement, both of which expire in August 2021; and a $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement and a $4.0 billion term credit agreement, both of which we entered into on March 15, 2019 and which will expire on March 15, 2021 or, if earlier, the date that is 180 days after the date on which each of the separations of Otis and Carrier have been consummated. On March 15, 2019, we terminated the $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement that we entered into on November 26, 2018. As of June 30, 2019, there were no borrowings under any of these agreements. The undrawn portions of these revolving credit agreements are also available to serve as backup facilities for the issuance of commercial paper. As of June 30, 2019, our maximum commercial paper borrowing limit was $6.35 billion. Commercial paper borrowings at June 30, 2019 include approximately €750 million ($855 million) of euro-denominated commercial paper. We use our commercial paper borrowings for general corporate purposes, including the funding of potential acquisitions, pension contributions, debt refinancing, dividend payments and repurchases of our common stock. The need for commercial paper borrowings arises when the use of domestic cash for general corporate purposes exceeds the sum of domestic cash generation and foreign cash repatriated to the U.S.

We previously had a universal shelf registration statement filed with the SEC, which expired on April 29, 2019.  Our ability to renew our shelf registration statement may be limited as a result of the separation transactions as well as our proposed merger with Raytheon; as noted above, we entered into a new $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement and a $4.0 billion term credit agreement on March 15, 2019 to be used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment, repurchase or redemption of existing debt, and to serve as backup facilities to support additional issuances of commercial paper. We expect to renew our shelf registration statement following the separation transactions or earlier, as appropriate.

Note 6: Income Taxes
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 is primarily the result of favorable adjustments related to the conclusion of the audit by the Examination Division of the Internal Revenue Service for the UTC 2014, 2015 and 2016 tax years and the filing by a subsidiary of the Company to participate in an amnesty program offered by the Italian Tax Authority. These benefits were partially offset by tax charges connected to the Company’s portfolio separation transactions.
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is principally related to the items described above in addition to the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) interpretive guidance and the absence of the TCJA provisional adjustments recorded through the second quarter of 2018.
We conduct business globally and, as a result, UTC or one or more of our subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2008.
In the ordinary course of business, there is inherent uncertainty in quantifying our income tax positions. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date. It is reasonably possible that a net reduction within the range of $140 million to $490 million of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next 12 months as a result of additional worldwide uncertain tax positions, the closure of tax statutes, or the revaluation of current uncertain tax positions arising from the issuance of legislation, regulatory or other guidance or developments in examinations, in appeals, or in the courts. See Note 15, Contingent Liabilities, for discussion regarding uncertain tax positions, included in the above range, related to pending litigation with respect to certain deductions claimed in Germany.
During the quarter the Examination Division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concluded its audit of the Company’s 2014, 2015 and 2016 tax years. Further, during the quarter, a subsidiary of the Company engaged in certain tax litigation in Italy and made filings necessary to participate in an amnesty program offered by the Italian Tax Authority. As a result of the conclusion of the IRS audit and the amnesty filing in Italy, the Company recognized a net gain during the quarter of approximately $307 million, including pre-tax interest of approximately $56 million. It is reasonably possible that additional net non-cash gains could be recognized during the remainder of 2019 in the range of $25 million to $70 million, primarily tax, due to other potential settlements with tax authorities and statute of limitations expirations.

2017 and Prior Actions. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring costs totaling $24 million for restructuring actions initiated in 2017 and prior. As of June 30, 2019, we have approximately $74 million of accrual balances remaining related to 2017 and prior actions.

Note 9: Financial Instruments
We enter into derivative instruments primarily for risk management purposes, including derivatives designated as hedging instruments under the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the FASB ASC and those utilized as economic hedges. We operate internationally and, in the normal course of business, are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. These fluctuations can increase the costs of financing, investing and operating the business. We have used derivative instruments, including swaps, forward contracts and options, to manage certain foreign currency, interest rate and commodity price exposures.
The four quarter rolling average of the notional amount of foreign exchange contracts hedging foreign currency transactions was $18.2 billion and $20.1 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
The following table summarizes the fair value and presentation in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for derivative instruments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

The Company utilizes the critical terms match method in assessing derivatives for hedge effectiveness. Accordingly, the hedged items and derivatives designated as hedging instruments are highly effective.
We have €4.95 billion of euro-denominated long-term debt and €750 million of euro-denominated commercial paper borrowings outstanding, which qualify as a net investment hedge against our investments in European businesses. As of June 30, 2019, the net investment hedge is deemed to be effective.
Assuming current market conditions continue, a $23 million pre-tax loss is expected to be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into Product sales to reflect the fixed prices obtained from foreign exchange hedging within the next 12 months. At June 30, 2019, all derivative contracts accounted for as cash flow hedges will mature by July 2023.

Valuation Techniques. Our available-for-sale securities include equity investments that are traded in active markets, either domestically or internationally, and are measured at fair value using closing stock prices from active markets. Our derivative assets and liabilities include foreign exchange contracts that are measured at fair value using internal models based on observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and our counterparties' credit risks.
As of June 30, 2019, there has not been any significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk. Similarly, there has not been any significant adverse impact to our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties' credit risks.

We had commercial aerospace financing and other contractual commitments totaling approximately $15.9 billion and $15.5 billion as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to commercial aircraft and certain contractual rights to provide product on new aircraft platforms. Associated risks on these commitments from changes in interest rates are mitigated because interest rates are variable during the commitment term and are set at the date of funding based on current market conditions, the fair value of the underlying collateral and the credit worthiness of the customers. As a result, the fair value of these financings is expected to equal the amounts funded.
Note 11: Long-Term Financing Receivables
Our long-term financing receivables primarily represent balances related to the aerospace businesses such as long-term trade accounts receivable, leases, and notes receivable. We also have other long-term receivables in our commercial businesses; however, both the individual and aggregate amounts of those other receivables are not significant. The following table summarizes the balance by class of aerospace business related long-term receivables as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Customer credit ratings range from customers with an extremely strong capacity to meet financial obligations to customers whose uncollateralized receivable is in default. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from

estimates or that consideration of these factors in the future will not result in an increase or decrease to the allowance for credit losses on long-term receivables. Based upon the customer credit ratings, approximately $150 million of our total long-term receivables were considered to bear high credit risk as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
For long-term trade accounts receivable, we evaluate credit risk and collectability individually to determine if an allowance is necessary. Our long-term receivables reflected in the table above, which include reserves of $23 million and $16 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, are individually evaluated for impairment. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we did not have any significant balances that are considered to be delinquent, on non-accrual status, past due 90 days or more, or considered to be impaired.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). The new standard allows companies to reclassify to retained earnings the stranded tax effects in Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) from the TCJA. We elected to reclassify the income tax effects of TCJA from AOCI of $745 million to retained earnings, effective January 1, 2019.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This ASU modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Upon adoption, investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method generally must be carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income. We had approximately $5 million of unrealized gains on these securities recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2017. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018, with these amounts recorded directly to retained earnings as of that date.
Amounts reclassified that relate to our defined benefit pension and postretirement plans include the amortization of prior service costs and actuarial net losses recognized during each period presented. These costs are recorded as components of net periodic pension cost for each period presented (see Note 7 for additional details).
All noncontrolling interests with redemption features, such as put options, that are not solely within our control (redeemable noncontrolling interests) are reported in the mezzanine section of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, between liabilities and equity, at the greater of redemption value or initial carrying value.
Note 13: Variable Interest Entities
Pratt & Whitney holds a 61% net interest in the International Aero Engines AG (IAE) collaboration with MTU Aero Engines AG (MTU) and Japanese Aero Engines Corporation (JAEC) and a 49.5% ownership interest in IAE. IAE's business purpose is to coordinate the design, development, manufacturing and product support of the V2500 program through involvement with the collaborators. Additionally, Pratt & Whitney, JAEC and MTU are participants in International Aero Engines, LLC (IAE LLC), whose business purpose is to coordinate the design, development, manufacturing and product support for the PW1100G-JM engine for the Airbus A320neo aircraft and the PW1400G-JM engine for the Irkut MC21 aircraft. Pratt & Whitney holds a 59% net interest and a 59% ownership interest in IAE LLC. IAE and IAE LLC retain limited equity with the primary economics of the programs passed to the participants. As such, we have determined that IAE and IAE LLC are variable interest entities with Pratt & Whitney the primary beneficiary. IAE and IAE LLC have, therefore, been consolidated. The carrying amounts and classification of assets and liabilities for variable interest entities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:

Note 15: Contingent Liabilities
Summarized below are the matters previously described in Note 18 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report, incorporated by reference in our 2018 Form 10-K, updated as applicable.
Except as otherwise noted, while we are unable to predict the final outcome, based on information currently available, we do not believe that resolution of any of the following matters will have a material adverse effect upon our competitive position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
Environmental. Our operations are subject to environmental regulation by federal, state and local authorities in the United States and authorities with jurisdiction over our foreign operations. As described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report, we have accrued for the costs of environmental remediation activities, including but not limited to investigatory, remediation, operating and maintenance costs and performance guarantees, and periodically reassess these amounts. We believe that the likelihood of incurring losses materially in excess of amounts accrued is remote. Additional information pertaining to environmental matters is included in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report.
Government. In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries and our properties are subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, investigations and threatened legal actions and proceedings. For example, we are now, and believe that, in light of the current U.S. Government contracting environment, we will continue to be the subject of one or more U.S. Government investigations. Such U.S. Government investigations often take years to complete and could result in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines, treble and other damages, forfeitures, restitution or penalties, or could lead to suspension or debarment of U.S. Government contracting privileges. For instance, if we or one of our business units were charged with wrongdoing as a result of any of these investigations or other government investigations (including violations of certain environmental or export laws) the U.S. Government could suspend us from bidding on or receiving awards of new U.S. Government contracts pending the completion of legal proceedings. If convicted or found liable, the U.S. Government could fine and debar us from new U.S. Government contracting for a period generally not to exceed three years. The U.S. Government also reserves the right to debar a contractor from receiving new government contracts for fraudulent, criminal or other seriously improper conduct. The U.S. Government could void any contracts found to be tainted by fraud.
Our contracts with the U.S. Government are also subject to audits. Like many defense contractors, we have received audit reports recommending the reduction of certain contract prices because, for example, cost or pricing data or cost accounting practices used to price and negotiate those contracts may not have conformed to government regulations. Some of these audit reports recommend that certain payments be repaid, delayed, or withheld, and may involve substantial amounts. We have made

28


voluntary refunds in those cases we believe appropriate, have settled some allegations and, in some cases, continue to negotiate and/or litigate. In addition, we accrue for liabilities associated with those matters that are probable and can be reasonably estimated. The most likely settlement amount to be incurred is accrued based upon a range of estimates. Where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, then we accrue the minimum amount.
Legal Proceedings.
Cost Accounting Standards Claims
In April 2019, a Divisional Administrative Contracting Officer (DACO) of the United States Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) asserted a claim against Pratt & Whitney to recover overpayments of approximately $1.73 billion plus interest (approximately $506 million through June 30, 2019). The claim is based on Pratt & Whitney's alleged noncompliance with cost accounting standards from January 1, 2007 to March 31, 2019, due to its method of allocating independent research and development costs to government contracts. Pratt & Whitney believes that the claim is without merit and filed an appeal to the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) on June 7, 2019.  
As previously disclosed, in December 2013, a DCMA DACO asserted a claim against Pratt & Whitney to recover overpayments of approximately $177 million plus interest (approximately $92 million through June 30, 2019). The claim is based on Pratt & Whitney's alleged noncompliance with cost accounting standards from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2012, due to its method of determining the cost of collaborator parts used in the calculation of material overhead costs for government contracts. In 2014, Pratt & Whitney filed an appeal to the ASBCA. An evidentiary hearing was held and completed in June 2019.  The parties are now engaged in post-hearing briefing, and a decision from the ASBCA will follow. We continue to believe that the claim is without merit. In December 2018, a DCMA DACO issued a second claim against Pratt & Whitney that similarly alleges that its method of determining the cost of collaborator parts does not comply with the cost accounting standards for calendar years 2013 through 2017.   This second claim demands payment of $269 million plus interest (approximately $48.1 million through June 30, 2019), which we also believe is without merit and which Pratt & Whitney appealed to the ASBCA in January 2019.  
German Tax Litigation
As previously disclosed, UTC has been involved in administrative review proceedings with the German Tax Office, which concern approximately €215 million (approximately $245 million) of tax benefits that we have claimed related to a 1998 reorganization of the corporate structure of Otis operations in Germany. Upon audit, these tax benefits were disallowed by the German Tax Office. UTC estimates interest associated with the aforementioned tax benefits is an additional approximately €118 million (approximately $135 million). On August 3, 2012, we filed suit in the local German Tax Court (Berlin-Brandenburg). In March 2016, the local German Tax Court dismissed our suit, and we appealed this decision to the German Federal Tax Court (FTC). Following a hearing in July 2018, the FTC remanded the matter to the local German Tax Court for further proceedings. In 2015, UTC made tax and interest payments to German tax authorities of €275 million (approximately $300 million) in order to avoid additional interest accruals pending final resolution of this matter.
Asbestos Matters
As previously disclosed, like many other industrial companies, we and our subsidiaries have been named as defendants in lawsuits alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos integrated into certain of our products or business premises. While we have never manufactured asbestos and no longer incorporate it in any currently-manufactured products, certain of our historical products, like those of many other manufacturers, have contained components incorporating asbestos. A substantial majority of these asbestos-related claims have been dismissed without payment or were 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 year.
Our estimated total liability to resolve all pending and unasserted potential future asbestos claims through 2059 is approximately $328 million and is principally recorded in Other long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2019. This amount is on a pre-tax basis, not discounted, and excludes the Company’s legal fees to defend the asbestos claims (which will continue to be expensed by the Company as they are incurred). In addition, the Company has an insurance recovery receivable for probable asbestos related recoveries of approximately $147 million, which is included primarily in Other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2019.
The amounts recorded by UTC for asbestos-related liabilities and insurance recoveries are based on currently available information and assumptions that we believe are reasonable. Our actual liabilities or insurance recoveries could be higher or lower than those recorded if actual results vary significantly from the assumptions. Key variables in these assumptions include the number and type of new claims to be filed each year, the outcomes or resolution of such claims, the average cost of resolution of each new claim, the amount of insurance available, the allocation methodologies, the contractual terms with each insurer with whom we have reached settlements, the resolution of coverage issues with other excess insurance carriers with whom we have not yet achieved settlements, and the solvency risk with respect to our insurance carriers. Other factors that may

29


affect our future liability include uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, legal rulings that may be made by state and federal courts, and the passage of state or federal legislation. At the end of each year, the Company will evaluate all of these factors and, with input from an outside actuarial expert, make any necessary adjustments to both our estimated asbestos liabilities and insurance recoveries.
Other.
As described in Note 14 of this Form 10-Q and Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report, we extend performance and operating cost guarantees beyond our normal warranty and service policies for extended periods on some of our products. We have accrued our estimate of the liability that may result under these guarantees and for service costs that are probable and can be reasonably estimated.
We also have other commitments and contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings, self-insurance programs and matters arising out of the normal course of business. We accrue contingencies based upon a range of possible outcomes. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other, then we accrue the minimum amount.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are also routinely defendants in, parties 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 instances, claims for substantial monetary damages are asserted against the Company and its subsidiaries and could result in fines, penalties, compensatory or treble damages or non-monetary relief. We do not believe that these matters will have a material adverse effect upon our competitive position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
Note 16: Leases
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and its related amendments (collectively, the New Lease Accounting Standard) are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We adopted the New Lease Accounting Standard effective January 1, 2019 and elected the modified retrospective approach in which results for periods before 2019 were not adjusted for the new standard and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting was recognized through retained earnings at the date of adoption.
The New Lease Accounting Standard establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, this standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, finance or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it transfers all of the risks and rewards, as well as control of the underlying asset, to the lessee. If risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control, the lease is treated as financing. If the lessor doesn’t convey risks and rewards or control, the lease is treated as operating.
We have elected certain of the practical expedients available under the New Lease Accounting Standard upon adoption. We have applied the practical expedient which allows prospective transition to the New Lease Accounting Standard on January 1, 2019. Under the transition practical expedient, we did not reassess lease classification, embedded leases or initial direct costs. We have applied the practical expedient for short-term leases. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. We have elected the practical expedients to combine these components for certain equipment leases. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, we apply a portfolio approach to effectively account for the operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities. The adoption of the New Lease Accounting Standard did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations or Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Upon adoption, we recorded a $2.6 billion right-of-use asset and a $2.7 billion lease liability. The adoption of the New Lease Accounting Standard had an immaterial impact on retained earnings.
We enter into lease agreements for the use of real estate space, vehicles, information technology equipment, and certain other equipment under operating and finance leases. We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets, Accrued liabilities, and Operating lease liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Finance leases are not considered significant to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet or Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Finance lease right-of-use assets at June 30, 2019 of $74 million are included in Other assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Finance lease liabilities at June 30, 2019 of $85 million are included in Long term debt currently due, and Long term debt in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Table of Contents

Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments, and use the implicit rate when readily determinable. We determine our incremental borrowing rate through market sources including relevant industry rates. Our lease right-of-use assets also include any lease pre-payments and exclude lease incentives. Certain of our leases include variable payments, which may vary based upon changes in facts or circumstances after the start of the lease. We exclude variable payments from lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, to the extent not considered fixed, and instead, expense variable payments as incurred. Variable lease expense and lease expense for short duration contracts is not a material component of lease expense. Our leases generally have remaining lease terms of 1 to 20 years, some of which include options to extend leases. The majority of our leases with options to extend are up to 5 years with the ability to terminate the lease within 1 year. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion and our lease right-of-use assets and liabilities reflect only the options we are reasonably certain that we will exercise. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
In limited instances we act as a lessor, primarily for commercial aerospace engines and certain heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and commercial equipment, all of which are classified as operating leases. These leases are not significant to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet or Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Note 17: Segment Financial Data
Our operations are classified into four principal segments: Otis, Carrier, Pratt & Whitney, and Collins Aerospace Systems. The segments are generally based on the management structure of the businesses and the grouping of similar operating companies, where each management organization has general operating autonomy over diversified products and services.
Total sales by segment include inter-segment sales, which are generally made at prices approximating those that the selling entity is able to obtain on external sales. Results for the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:

Note 18: Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 328): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments, including trade receivables, and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU and its related amendments.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The new standard removes the disclosure requirements for the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. This standard did not have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures. We early adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. The new standard includes updates to the disclosure requirements for defined benefit plans including several additions, deletions and modifications to the disclosure requirements. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The new standard provides updated guidance surrounding implementation costs associated with cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.

Table of Contents

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. The amendments in this update for determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest require reporting entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety (as currently required in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)). These amendments also will create alignment between determining whether a decision making fee is a variable interest and determining whether a reporting entity within a related party group is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. This will significantly reduce the risk that decision makers with insignificant direct and indirect interests could be deemed the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.
In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18, Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606. The amendments in this update make targeted improvements to GAAP for collaborative arrangements as follows: clarify that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue under Topic 606 when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account. In those situations, all the guidance in Topic 606 should be applied, including recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements; add unit-of-account guidance in Topic 808 to align with the guidance in Topic 606 (that is, a distinct good or service) when an entity is assessing whether the collaborative arrangement or a part of the arrangement is within the scope of Topic 606; and require that in a transaction with a collaborative arrangement participant that is not directly related to sales to third parties, presenting the transaction together with revenue recognized under Topic 606 is precluded if the collaborative arrangement participant is not a customer. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.

With respect to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information of UTC for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, 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 July 26, 2019, appearing below, states that the firm did not audit and does not express an opinion on that unaudited condensed consolidated financial information. 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 Act) for its report on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information 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 Act.


Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareowners and Board of Directors of United Technologies Corporation

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of United Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2019, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income and of changes in equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, 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, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 7, 2019, which included a paragraph describing a change in the manner of accounting for revenue from contracts with customers and net periodic benefit cost in the 2018 financial statements, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2018 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

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

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a global provider of high technology products and services to the building systems and aerospace industries. Our operations for the periods presented herein are classified into four principal business segments: Otis, Carrier, Pratt & Whitney, and Collins Aerospace Systems. Otis and Carrier are referred to as the "commercial businesses," while Pratt & Whitney and Collins Aerospace Systems are referred to as the "aerospace businesses."
The current status of significant factors affecting our business environment in 2019 is discussed below. For additional discussion, refer to the "Business Overview" section in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2018 Annual Report, which is incorporated by reference in our 2018 Form 10-K.
General
Our worldwide operations can be affected by industrial, economic and political factors on both a regional and global level. Our operations include original equipment manufacturing (OEM) and extensive related aftermarket parts and services in both our commercial and aerospace businesses. Our business mix also reflects the combination of shorter cycles at Carrier and in our commercial aerospace spares businesses, and longer cycles at Otis and in our aerospace OEM and aftermarket maintenance businesses. Our customers are in the public and private sectors, and our businesses reflect an extensive geographic diversification that has evolved with continued globalization.
Our military businesses' sales are affected by U.S. Department of Defense budget and spending levels, changes in market demand and the global political environment. Total sales to the U.S. Government were $2.7 billion and $1.8 billion for the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, 14% and 11% of total UTC sales for those periods, respectively. Our participation in long-term production, development and sustainment programs for the U.S. Government has and is expected to contribute positively to our results in 2019.
As has been previously disclosed, on November 26, 2018, the Company announced its intention to separate into three independent companies. Following the separations, the Company will operate as an aerospace company comprised of the Collins Aerospace Systems and Pratt & Whitney businesses, and Otis and Carrier will become independent companies. The proposed separations are expected to be effected through spin-offs of Otis and Carrier that are intended to be tax-free for the Company’s shareowners for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and are expected to be completed in the first half of 2020. Separation of Otis and Carrier from UTC via spin-off transactions will be subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including, among others, final approval by the Company’s Board of Directors, receipt of tax rulings in certain jurisdictions and/or a tax opinion from external counsel (as applicable), the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and effectiveness of Form 10 registration statements, and satisfactory completion of financing (subject to UTC’s agreement to consummate the distributions pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Raytheon merger agreement). See Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 1 for additional information regarding the Raytheon transaction.
On June 9, 2019, UTC entered into a merger agreement with Raytheon Company (“Raytheon”) providing for an all-stock merger of equals transaction.  The Raytheon merger agreement provides, among other things, that each share of Raytheon common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Raytheon merger (except for shares held by Raytheon as treasury stock) will be converted into the right to receive 2.3348 shares of UTC common stock.  Upon the closing of the Raytheon merger, Raytheon will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of UTC, and UTC will change its name to Raytheon Technologies Corporation. The Raytheon merger is expected to close in the first half of 2020 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals and the approval of both Raytheon’s and our shareowners, as well as the completion of UTC's previously announced separation of its Otis and Carrier businesses.

Acquisition Activity
Our growth strategy contemplates acquisitions. Our operations and results can be affected by the rate and extent to which appropriate acquisition opportunities are available, acquired businesses are effectively integrated, and anticipated synergies or cost savings are achieved. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, our investment in business acquisitions was $32 million, which consisted of small acquisitions at Otis.
Other
Government legislation, policies and regulations can have a negative impact on our worldwide operations. Government regulation of refrigerants and energy efficiency standards, elevator safety codes and fire protection regulations are important to

Table of Contents

our commercial businesses. Government and market-driven safety and performance regulations, restrictions on aircraft engine noise and emissions, and government procurement practices can impact our aerospace and defense businesses.
Global economic and political conditions, changes in raw material and commodity prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, energy costs, levels of end market demand in construction, levels of air travel, the financial condition of commercial airlines, and the impact from natural disasters and weather conditions create uncertainties that could impact our earnings outlook for the remainder of 2019. With regard to political conditions, the U.S. Government suspended Turkey’s participation in the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program because Turkey accepted delivery of the Russian-built S-400 air and missile defense system.  The U.S. may also impose sanctions on Turkish entities as a result.  Turkish companies supply components, some of which are sole-sourced, to our aerospace businesses for commercial and military engines and aerospace products.  Depending upon the scope and timing of U.S. sanctions on Turkey and potential reciprocal actions, if any, such sanctions or actions could impact our aerospace businesses’ sources of supply and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. See Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our 2018 Form 10-K for further discussion.
The following activity is disclosed as required by Section 13(r)(1)(D) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as transactions or dealings with the government of Iran that have not been specifically authorized by a U.S. federal department or agency:
Beginning in June 2016, Rockwell Collins provided access to two of its Flight Management Systems databases containing navigation and mapping information to MPT Maintenance, a South African aircraft maintenance provider, to support a Beechcraft B300 King Air aircraft owned by Iran Airports Company.  MPT Maintenance purchased a subscription to the databases that ran through November 2017, and was automatically renewed in December 2017, and again in December 2018.  MPT Maintenance paid a total of $11,365 for the original subscription and the first renewal, but it did not pay for the second renewal and Rockwell Collins disabled the subscription in mid-December 2018.  The last download from the databases under the subscription occurred in early December 2018. In May 2019, MPT Maintenance sought to reopen the subscription, and at that time, Rockwell Collins recognized the transaction was impermissible.  Iran Airports Company is believed to be owned by the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, an agency of the Government of Iran.  UTC and its affiliates did not receive any revenues or profits attributable to this subscription after its acquisition of Rockwell Collins and has filed the relevant disclosure with the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. UTC and its affiliates do not intend to engage in any further activity with Iran Airports Company.
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 the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report, incorporated by reference in our 2018 Form 10-K, describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management's estimates. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Research and development spending is subject to the variable nature of program development schedules and, therefore, year-over-year fluctuations in spending levels are expected. The majority of the company-funded spending is incurred by the aerospace businesses. The year-over-year increase (26%) in company-funded research and development for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by the impact of the Rockwell Collins merger (19%). The remaining increase primarily reflects higher expenses across various commercial programs at Pratt & Whitney (6%). For the six months ended June 30, 2019 company-funded research and development increased 29%, driven by the impact of the Rockwell Collins acquisition (22%). The remaining increase primarily reflects higher expenses across various commercial programs at Pratt & Whitney (6%) and Collins Aerospace Systems (3%).
The increase (57%) in customer-funded research and development for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by the impact of the Rockwell Collins merger (62%). Excluding this impact, customer-funded research and development decreased (5%) year-over-year driven by lower research and development expenses on military development programs at Pratt & Whitney (8%), partially offset by an increase in military development programs at Collins Aerospace Systems (2%). The increase (63%) in customer-funded research and development for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was also driven by the impact of the Rockwell Collins acquisition (64%). Excluding this impact, customer-funded research and development decreased (1%) as lower research and development expenses on military development programs at Pratt & Whitney (4%), were partially offset by higher expenses at Collins Aerospace Systems (2%).

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 20% in the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The increase in expenses includes the impact of the Rockwell Collins acquisition (11%), and costs associated with the Company's intention to separate its commercial businesses (9%). Excluding these impacts, selling, general and administrative expenses were consistent with the prior year at each of the four segments.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 18% in the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily driven by the impact of the Rockwell Collins acquisition (10%), costs associated with the Company's intention to separate its commercial businesses (6%) and higher restructuring costs (1%). The growth in Selling, general and administrative expenses also includes higher expenses at Pratt & Whitney (1%) driven by increased headcount and employee compensation related expenses and costs to support higher volumes. Selling, general and administrative expenses at Collins Aerospace Systems, Otis and Carrier were consistent with the prior year.

Interest expense, net increased 54% and 71% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The increase in interest expense primarily reflects the impact of the August 16, 2018 issuance of notes representing $11 billion in aggregate principal. The average maturity of our long-term debt at June 30, 2019 is approximately 10 years. The increase in interest income for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by interest income related to tax settlements.

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 is primarily the result of favorable adjustments related to the conclusion of the audit by the Examination Division of the Internal Revenue Service for the UTC 2014, 2015 and 2016 tax years and the filing by a subsidiary of the Company to participate in an amnesty program offered by the Italian Tax Authority. These benefits were partially offset by tax charges connected to the Company’s portfolio separation transactions.
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is principally related to the items described above in addition to the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) interpretive guidance and the absence of the TCJA provisional adjustments recorded through the second quarter of 2018.
The Company will continue to review and incorporate as necessary TCJA changes related to forthcoming U.S. Treasury Regulations, other updates, and the finalization of the deemed inclusions to be reported on the Company’s 2018 U.S. federal income tax return.
As shown in the table above, the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is 19.7%; the effective income tax rate for the same period, excluding restructuring, non-operational nonrecurring items is 23.1%. The rate is still subject to change as guidance and interpretations related to the TCJA continue to be finalized. We anticipate some variability in the tax

Restructuring actions are an essential component of our operating margin improvement efforts and relate to existing and recently acquired operations. Charges generally arise from severance related to workforce reductions, facility exit and lease termination costs associated with the consolidation of field and manufacturing operations and costs to exit legacy programs. We continue to closely monitor the economic environment and may undertake further restructuring actions to keep our cost structure aligned with the demands of the prevailing market conditions.
2019 Actions. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring charges of $115 million relating to ongoing cost reduction actions initiated in 2019. We expect to incur additional restructuring charges of $73 million to complete these actions. We are targeting to complete in 2019 and 2020 the majority of the remaining workforce and facility related cost reduction actions initiated in 2019. We expect recurring pre-tax savings in continuing operations to increase to approximately $160 million annually over the two-year period subsequent to initiating the actions. Approximately 92% of the total expected pre-tax charges will require cash payments, which we have funded and expect to continue to fund with cash generated from operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had cash outflows of approximately $55 million related to the 2019 actions.

2018 Actions. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring charges of $39 million and $73 million, respectively, for actions initiated in 2018. We expect to incur additional restructuring charges of $20 million to complete these actions. We are targeting to complete in 2019 the majority of the remaining workforce and facility related cost reduction actions initiated in 2018. We expect recurring pre-tax savings in continuing operations to increase over the two-year period subsequent to initiating the actions to approximately $260 million annually, of which, approximately $85 million was realized during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Approximately 92% of the total expected pre-tax charges will require cash payments, which we have funded and expect to continue to fund with cash generated from operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had cash outflows of approximately $104 million related to the 2018 actions.
In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring costs totaling $24 million for restructuring actions initiated in 2017 and prior. For additional discussion of restructuring, see Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Segment Review
Segments are generally based on the management structure of the businesses and the grouping of similar operating companies, where each management organization has general operating autonomy over diversified products and services. Adjustments to reconcile segment reporting to the consolidated results for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are included in "Eliminations and other", which also includes certain smaller subsidiaries. We attempt to quantify material factors within our discussion of the results of each segment whenever those factors are determinable. However, in some instances, the factors we cite within our segment discussion are based upon input measures or qualitative information that does not lend itself to quantification when discussed in the context of the financial results measured on an output basis and are not, therefore, quantified in the below discussions.
Commercial Businesses
Our commercial businesses generally serve customers in the worldwide commercial and residential property industries, and Carrier also serves customers in the commercial and transport refrigeration industries. Sales in the commercial businesses are influenced by a number of external factors, including fluctuations in residential and commercial construction activity, regulatory changes, interest rates, labor costs, foreign currency exchange rates, customer attrition, raw material and energy costs, credit markets and other global and political factors. Carrier's financial performance can also be influenced by production and utilization of transport equipment and, in the case of its residential business, weather conditions. To ensure adequate supply of products in the distribution channel, Carrier customarily offers its customers incentives to purchase products. The principal incentive program provides reimbursements to distributors for offering promotional pricing on Carrier products. We account for incentive payments made as a reduction to sales.
At constant currency and excluding the effect of acquisitions and divestitures, Carrier equipment orders in the quarter ended June 30, 2019 decreased 12% in comparison to the same period of the prior year, driven by decreases in transport refrigeration (63%), commercial refrigeration (11%), commercial HVAC (4%) and North America residential HVAC equipment (3%). Fire and security products equipment orders were consistent with the prior year. At constant currency, Otis new equipment orders in the quarter decreased 6% in comparison to the prior year as increased orders in China (5%) were more than offset by decreased orders in the Americas (17%), Asia excluding China (16%) and Europe and the Middle East (2%).

The organic sales increase of 4% primarily reflects higher service sales across all regions (2%), primarily driven by growth in the Americas (1%) and Asia (1%), and higher new equipment sales (2%) driven by growth in China.
The operational profit increase of 7% was driven by:
margin contribution from the higher sales volumes noted above (9%)
favorable productivity (1%)
These increases were partially offset by:
higher selling, general and administrative expenses (3%)
unfavorable transactional foreign exchange gains and losses from mark-to-market adjustments and embedded foreign currency derivatives within certain new equipment contracts (1%)
The 3% increase in "Other" primarily represents the absence of the unfavorable impact of prior year legal matters.

higher selling, general and administrative expenses (3%)
unfavorable transactional foreign exchange gains and losses from mark-to-market adjustments and embedded foreign currency derivatives within certain new equipment contracts (4%)
The 1% increase in "Other" primarily represents the absence of the unfavorable impact of prior year legal matters.

The organic sales increase of 2% was primarily driven by growth in commercial HVAC (1%) as well as increases in North America residential HVAC and transport refrigeration (1%, combined).

Operational profit decreased 1% in comparison to the prior year as the impact of favorable pricing (4%) was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of commodity costs, tariffs, labor productivity and logistics (3%). This net favorability was more than offset by investments in productivity initiatives (1%) and unfavorable mix, net of higher volume (1%).

The 47% decrease in Other primarily reflects the absence of the prior year gain on the sale of Taylor Company.

The organic sales increase of 3% was primarily driven by growth in transport refrigeration (1%) as well as global HVAC (2%).

Operational profit decreased 2% in comparison to the prior year. The impact of favorable pricing and material productivity (6%, combined) was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of commodity costs, tariffs, labor productivity and logistics (5%). This net favorability was more than offset by increased selling, general and administrative costs, net of restructuring savings (1%), unfavorable mix, net of higher volume (1%) and investments in productivity initiatives (1%).

The 34% decrease in Other primarily reflects the absence of the prior year gain on the sale of Taylor Company.

Aerospace Businesses
The aerospace businesses serve both commercial and government aerospace customers. Revenue passenger miles (RPMs), U.S. Government military and space spending, and the general economic health of airline carriers are all barometers for our aerospace businesses. Performance in the general aviation sector is closely tied to the overall health of the economy and is positively correlated to corporate profits.
We continue to see growth in a strong commercial airline industry which is benefiting from traffic growth and stronger economic conditions. Airline traffic, as measured by RPMs, grew approximately 5% in the first five months of 2019.

Our commercial aftermarket businesses continue to evolve as a significant portion of our aerospace businesses' customers are covered under long-term aftermarket service agreements at Pratt & Whitney and Collins Aerospace Systems. These agreements are comprehensive long-term spare part and service agreements with our customers. We expect a continued shift to long-term aftermarket service agreements in lieu of transactional spare part sales as new aerospace products enter our customers' fleets under long-term service agreements and legacy fleets are retired. For the first six months of 2019, as compared with 2018, total commercial aerospace aftermarket sales increased 69% at Collins Aerospace Systems (up 13% excluding the impact of the Rockwell Collins acquisition) and 1% at Pratt & Whitney.
Operating profit in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019 included net unfavorable changes in aerospace contract estimates totaling $69 million and $81 million, respectively, primarily reflecting net unfavorable contract adjustments at Pratt & Whitney. Operating profit in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018 included net unfavorable changes in aerospace contract estimates totaling $41 million and $82 million, respectively, primarily reflecting net unfavorable contract adjustments recorded at Pratt & Whitney.

* For Pratt & Whitney only, the transactional impact of foreign exchange hedging at Pratt & Whitney Canada has been netted against the translational foreign exchange impact for presentation purposes in the table above. For all other segments these foreign exchange transactional impacts are included within the organic/operational caption in their respective tables. Due to its significance to Pratt & Whitney's overall operating results, we believe it is useful to segregate the foreign exchange transactional impact in order to clearly identify the underlying financial performance.

Eliminations and other reflects the elimination of sales, other income and operating profit transacted between segments, as well as the operating results of certain smaller businesses. The year-over-year increase in sales eliminations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the same periods of 2018, reflects an increase in the amount of inter-segment eliminations, principally between our aerospace businesses. The decrease in operating profits for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 is primarily driven by costs associated with the Company's intention to separate its commercial businesses. The decrease in operating profits for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily driven by costs associated with the Company's intention to separate its commercial businesses and the absence of the favorable impact of prior year insurance settlements, partially offset by lower transaction costs related to the acquisition of Rockwell Collins.

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Our principal source of liquidity is operating cash flows. For 2019, we expect cash flows from operations, net of capital expenditures, to approximate $4.5 billion to $5.0 billion, including $1.5 billion of one-time cash payments related to the portfolio separation. In addition to operating cash flows, other significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include: capital expenditures, customer financing requirements, investments in businesses, dividends, common stock repurchases, pension funding, access to the commercial paper markets, adequacy of available bank lines of credit, redemptions of debt, and the ability to attract long-term capital at satisfactory terms.
At June 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6,819 million, of which approximately 76% was held by UTC's foreign subsidiaries. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by reviewing available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct our business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. The Company no longer intends to reinvest certain undistributed earnings of its international subsidiaries that have been previously taxed in the U.S. As such, in the fourth quarter of 2018, it has recorded the taxes therewith. For the remainder of the Company’s undistributed international earnings, unless tax effective to repatriate, UTC will continue to permanently reinvest these earnings. We have repatriated approximately $1.3 billion of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
On occasion, we are required to maintain cash deposits with certain banks with respect to contractual obligations related to acquisitions, divestitures or other legal obligations. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the amount of such restricted cash was approximately $37 million and $60 million, respectively.
Historically, our strong debt ratings and financial position have enabled us to issue long-term debt at favorable market rates. Our ability to obtain debt financing at comparable risk-based interest rates is partly a function of our existing debt-to-total-capitalization level as well as our credit standing. Our debt-to-total-capitalization of 51% at June 30, 2019 is down 200 basis points from December 31, 2018 and increased 500 basis points from June 30, 2018, primarily reflecting additional borrowings used to finance the acquisition of Rockwell Collins as well as the acquisition of Rockwell Collins' outstanding debt.
At June 30, 2019, we had credit agreements with various banks permitting aggregate borrowings of up to $10.35 billion, including: a $2.20 billion revolving credit agreement and a $2.15 billion multicurrency revolving credit agreement, both of which expire in August 2021; and a $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement and a $4.0 billion term credit agreement, both of which we entered into on March 15, 2019 and which will expire on March 15, 2021 or, if earlier, the date that is 180 days after the date on which each of the separations of Otis and Carrier have been consummated. On March 15, 2019, we terminated the $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement that we entered into on November 26, 2018. As of June 30, 2019, there were no borrowings under any of these agreements. The undrawn portions of these revolving credit agreements are also available to serve as backup facilities for the issuance of commercial paper.
As of June 30, 2019, our maximum commercial paper borrowing limit was $6.35 billion. Commercial paper borrowings at June 30, 2019 include approximately €750 million ($855 million) of euro-denominated commercial paper. We use our commercial paper borrowings for general corporate purposes, including the funding of potential acquisitions, pension contributions, debt refinancing, dividend payments and repurchases of our common stock. The need for commercial paper borrowings arises when the use of domestic cash for general corporate purposes exceeds the sum of domestic cash generation and foreign cash repatriated to the U.S.

We believe our future operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating cash needs. Further, we continue to have access to the commercial paper markets and our existing credit facilities, and our ability to obtain debt or equity financing, as well as the availability under committed credit lines, provides additional potential sources of liquidity should they be required or appropriate.

Cash generated from operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $1,056 million higher than the same period in 2018 largely due to higher net income. Cash outflows for working capital improved $33 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 over the prior period. Factoring activity resulted in a decrease of approximately $1.2 billion in cash flows from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the prior year. This decline in factoring activity was primarily driven by Pratt & Whitney partially offset by increased factoring at Collins Aerospace Systems. Factoring activity does not reflect the factoring of certain receivables performed at customer request for which we are compensated by the customer for the extended collection cycle.
In the six months ended June 30, 2019, cash outflows from working capital were $456 million. Contract assets, current increased $491 million due to work performed in excess of billings at Pratt & Whitney and Collins Aerospace Systems. Inventory increased $1.1 billion primarily driven by an increase to support higher sales volumes at Collins Aerospace Systems,

Table of Contents

the Geared Turbofan at Pratt & Whitney, and seasonal build in the HVAC businesses at Carrier. These outflows were partially offset by decreases in Accounts receivable of $769 million primarily due to improved collections at Pratt & Whitney and increases in Contract liabilities, current of $381 million primarily driven by Pratt & Whitney billings in excess of work performed, higher advanced billings at Otis and by Collins Aerospace Systems.
In the six months ended June 30, 2018, cash outflows from working capital were $489 million. Accounts receivables increased from an increase in sales volume driven by Carrier Residential & Commercial HVAC businesses, Collins Aerospace Systems and Pratt & Whitney. Contract assets increased due to costs in excess of billings primarily at Pratt & Whitney driven by military engines, at Otis due to progression on major projects, and at Carrier in Commercial HVAC. Inventory increased in the quarter primarily driven by Carrier seasonal build and an increase in production work in process for the Geared Turbofan at Pratt & Whitney. These increases were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, driven by the higher inventory purchasing activity and customer advances at Pratt & Whitney as well as an increase in current contract liabilities driven by seasonal advanced billings and progress payments on major contracts at Otis and the timing of billings on aftermarket contracts at Pratt & Whitney.
The funded status of our defined benefit pension plans is dependent upon many factors, including returns on invested assets, the level of market interest rates and actuarial mortality assumptions. We can contribute cash or UTC shares to our plans at our discretion, subject to applicable regulations. Total cash contributions to our global defined benefit pension plans during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were approximately $79 million and $59 million, respectively. Although our domestic pension plans are approximately 99% funded on a projected benefit obligation basis as of June 30, 2019, and we are not required to make additional contributions through the end of 2024, we may elect to make discretionary contributions in 2019. We expect to make total contributions of approximately $125 million to our global defined benefit pension plans in 2019, including $25 million to our domestic pension plans. Contributions to our global defined benefit pension plans in 2019 are expected to meet or exceed the current funding requirements.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 primarily reflect capital expenditures, cash investments in customer financing assets, investments/dispositions of businesses, payments related to our collaboration intangible assets and contractual rights to provide product on new aircraft platforms, and settlements of derivative contracts. The $979 million increase in cash flows used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to June 30, 2018 primarily relates to the absence of $1 billion in proceeds from the sale of Taylor Company in June 2018 by Carrier.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $830 million primarily relates to the Rockwell Merger as well as several projects at Collins Aerospace Systems and investments in production capacity at Pratt & Whitney.
Cash investments in businesses in the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $32 million consisted of small acquisitions at Otis. Dispositions of businesses in the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $133 million primarily consisted of the businesses held for sale associated with the Rockwell acquisition.
Customer financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 were a net use of cash of $331 million, primarily driven by additional Geared Turbofan engines to support customer fleets. We may also arrange for third parties to assume a portion of our commitments. We had commercial aerospace financing and other contractual commitments of approximately $15.9 billion at June 30, 2019 related to commercial aircraft and certain contractual rights to provide product on new aircraft platforms, of which up to $1.3 billion may be required to be disbursed during the remainder of 2019. We had commercial aerospace financing and other contractual commitments of approximately $15.5 billion at December 31, 2018.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, our collaboration intangible assets increased by approximately $169 million, which primarily relates to payments made under our 2012 agreement to acquire Rolls-Royce's collaboration interest in IAE.
As discussed in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we enter into derivative instruments for risk management purposes only, including derivatives designated as hedging instruments under the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the FASB ASC and those utilized as economic hedges. We operate internationally and, in the normal course of business, are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. These fluctuations can increase the costs of financing, investing and operating the business. We have used derivative instruments, including swaps,

forward contracts and options to manage certain foreign currency, interest rate and commodity price exposures. The settlement of these derivative instruments resulted in a net cash inflow of approximately $61 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a net cash inflow of $82 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Net cash used in financing activities increased $1,555 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to a decrease in short term borrowings of $969 million, an increase in dividends paid on Common Stock of $149 million, and a reduction in net debt issuances of $346 million.
Commercial paper borrowings and revolving credit facilities provide short-term liquidity to supplement operating cash flows and are used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of potential acquisitions and repurchases of our stock. We had approximately $855 million of outstanding commercial paper at June 30, 2019.
At June 30, 2019, management had remaining authority to repurchase approximately $1.9 billion of our common stock under the October 14, 2015 share repurchase program. Under this program, shares may be purchased on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, under accelerated share repurchase programs, and under plans complying with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We may also reacquire shares outside of the program from time to time in connection with the surrender of shares to cover taxes on vesting of restricted stock and as required under our employee savings plan. Our ability to repurchase shares is subject to applicable law, including restrictions arising from the pending merger transaction with Raytheon. We made cash payments of approximately $69 million to repurchase approximately 552 thousand shares of our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
We paid dividends on common stock of $0.735 per share in the first and second quarter of 2019, totaling approximately $1,219 million in the aggregate for the six months ended June 30, 2019. On June 10, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.735 per share payable September 10, 2019 to shareowners of record at the close of business on August 16, 2019.
We previously had a universal shelf registration statement filed with the SEC, which expired on April 29, 2019.  Our ability to renew our shelf registration statement may be limited as a result of the separation transactions as well as our proposed merger with Raytheon; as noted above, we entered into a new $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement and a $4.0 billion term credit agreement on March 15, 2019 to be used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment, repurchase or redemption of existing debt, and to serve as backup facilities to support additional issuances of commercial paper. We expect to renew our shelf registration statement following the separation transactions or earlier, as appropriate.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
In our 2018 Annual Report, incorporated by reference in our 2018 Form 10-K, we disclosed our off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations. As of June 30, 2019, there have been no material changes to these off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of business.
Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no significant change in our exposure to market risk during the six months ended June 30, 2019. For discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," contained in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Corporate Vice President, Controller (Controller), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019. 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, our CFO and our Controller have concluded that, as of June 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to 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, our CFO and our Controller, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2019, 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
This Form 10-Q contains statements which, to the extent they are not statements of historical or present fact, constitute “forward-looking statements” under the securities laws. From time to time, oral or written forward-looking statements may also be included in other information released to the public. These forward-looking statements are intended to provide management’s current expectations or plans for our future operating and financial performance, based on assumptions currently believed to be valid. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “expectations,” “plans,” “strategy,” “prospects,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “anticipate,” “will,” “should,” “see,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “confident,” “on track” and other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements may include, among other things, statements relating to future sales, earnings, cash flow, results of operations, uses of cash, share repurchases, tax rates, R&D spend, other measures of financial performance, potential future plans, strategies or transactions, credit ratings and net indebtedness, other anticipated benefits of the Rockwell Merger, the proposed merger with Raytheon or the spin-offs by United Technologies of Otis and Carrier into separate independent companies (the “separation transactions”), including estimated synergies and customer cost savings resulting from the proposed merger, the expected timing of completion of the proposed merger and the separation transactions, estimated costs associated with such transactions and other statements that are not historical facts. All forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. For those statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, without limitation:

the effect of economic conditions in the industries and markets in which we and Raytheon operate in the U.S. and globally and any changes therein, including financial market conditions, fluctuations in commodity prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, levels of end market demand in construction and in both the commercial and defense segments of the aerospace industry, levels of air travel, financial condition of commercial airlines, the impact of weather conditions and natural disasters, the financial condition of our customers and suppliers, and the risks associated with U.S. government sales (including changes or shifts in defense spending due to budgetary constraints, spending cuts resulting from sequestration, a government shutdown, or otherwise, and uncertain funding of programs);

future availability of credit and factors that may affect such availability, including credit market conditions and our capital structure;  
the timing and scope of future repurchases of our common stock, which may be suspended at any time due to various factors, including market conditions and the level of other investing activities and uses of cash, including in connection with the proposed merger with Raytheon;
delays and disruption in delivery of materials and services from suppliers;  
company and customer-directed cost reduction efforts and restructuring costs and savings and other consequences thereof (including the potential termination of U.S. government contracts and performance under undefinitized contract awards and the potential inability to recover termination costs);
new business and investment opportunities;
the ability to realize the intended benefits of organizational changes;
the anticipated benefits of diversification and balance of operations across product lines, regions and industries;  
the outcome of legal proceedings, investigations and other contingencies;
pension plan assumptions and future contributions;
the impact of the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements and labor disputes;
the effect of changes in political conditions in the U.S. and other countries in which we and Raytheon and our businesses each operate, including the effect of changes in U.S. trade policies or the U.K.’s pending withdrawal from the European Union, on general market conditions, global trade policies and currency exchange rates in the near term and beyond;
the effect of changes in tax (including U.S. tax reform enacted on December 22, 2017, which is commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017), environmental, regulatory and other laws and regulations (including, among other things, export and import requirements such as the International Traffic in Arms Regulations and the Export Administration Regulations, anti-bribery and anti-corruption requirements, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices

the expected benefits and timing of the separation transactions, and the risk that conditions to the separation transactions will not be satisfied and/or that the separation transactions will not be completed within the expected time frame, on the expected terms or at all;
the intended qualification of (i) the merger as a tax-free reorganization and (ii) the separation transactions as tax-free to UTC and UTC’s shareowners, in each case, for U.S. federal income tax purposes;  
the possibility that any opinions, consents, approvals or rulings required in connection with the separation transactions will not be received or obtained within the expected time frame, on the expected terms or at all;
expected financing transactions undertaken in connection with the proposed merger with Raytheon and the separation transactions and risks associated with additional indebtedness;  
the risk that dissynergy costs, costs of restructuring transactions and other costs incurred in connection with the separation transactions will exceed our estimates; and
the impact of the proposed merger and the separation transactions on the respective businesses of UTC and Raytheon and the risk that the separation transactions may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected, including the impact on UTC’s resources, systems, procedures and controls and the impact on relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business counterparties.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

737 MAX Aircraft Litigation
Multiple lawsuits have been filed in U.S. courts relating to the October 29, 2018 Lion Air Flight 610 and/or the March 10, 2019 Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 accidents.  Certain of our Collins Aerospace businesses have been named as a party, among others, in many of these lawsuits.  Collins Aerospace sold certain aircraft parts and systems to The Boeing Company for the 737 MAX aircraft involved in these accidents.  We are also fully supporting all ongoing governmental investigations and inquiries relating to the accidents.  We do not expect that the lawsuits or governmental investigations or inquiries will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
See Note 15: Contingent Liabilities, for discussion regarding other legal proceedings.
Except as otherwise noted above, there have been no material developments in legal proceedings. For previously reported information about legal proceedings refer to Part I, Item 3, "Legal Proceedings," of our 2018 Form 10-K and Part II - Other Information, Item 1. Legal Proceedings of our 2019 Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Item 1A.
Risk Factors
Except as noted below, there have been no material changes in the Company's risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Risks Relating to our Proposed Merger with Raytheon

We may not complete the combination with Raytheon or complete the combination within the time frame we anticipate; the combined business may underperform relative to our expectations; the combination may cause our financial results to differ from our expectations or the expectations of the investment community; we may not be able to achieve anticipated cost savings or other anticipated benefits.

The completion of the combination with Raytheon is subject to a number of conditions. The failure to satisfy all of the required conditions could delay the completion of the combination for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring at all. Any delay in completing the combination could cause UTC not to realize some or all of the benefits that UTC expects to achieve if the combination is successfully completed within the expected timeframe, or could cause UTC to realize such benefits on a different timeline than expected. In addition, the terms and conditions of the required regulatory authorizations and consents for the combination that are granted, if any, may impose requirements, limitations or costs or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company’s business or may materially delay the completion of the combination. Moreover, the completion of the combination is subject to the completion of the spin-offs of Otis and Carrier, which are themselves subject to a number of conditions (subject to UTC’s agreement to consummate the distributions pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Raytheon merger agreement). Any delay in or prevention of the completion of the spin-offs could delay or prevent the completion of the combination.

The success of the combination will depend, in part, on the combined company’s ability to successfully combine and integrate the businesses of UTC and Raytheon and realize the anticipated benefits, including synergies, cost savings, innovation opportunities and operational efficiencies, from the combination. If the combined company is unable to achieve these objectives within the anticipated time frame, or at all, the anticipated benefits may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, and the value of the combined company’s common stock may decline.
The integration of the two companies may result in material challenges, including, without limitation:
managing larger combined aerospace systems and defense businesses;
maintaining employee morale and retaining key management and other employees;
retaining existing business and operational relationships, including customers, suppliers and employees and other counterparties, as may be impacted by contracts containing consent and/or other provisions that may be triggered by the combination, and attracting new business and operational relationships;
the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying expectations regarding the integration process;

the possibility of significant costs involved in connection with completing the merger, including costs to achieve expected synergies;
consolidating corporate and administrative infrastructures and eliminating duplicative operations;
coordinating geographically separate organizations;
unanticipated issues in integrating information technology, communications and other systems; and
unforeseen expenses or delays associated with the combination.

On October 14, 2015, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $12 billion of our common stock, replacing the program announced on July 19, 2015. At June 30, 2019, the maximum dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under this current program was approximately $1,893 million. Under this program, shares may be purchased on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, under accelerated share repurchase (ASR) programs and under plans complying with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We may also reacquire shares outside of the program from time to time in connection with the surrender of shares to cover taxes on vesting of restricted stock and as required under our employee savings plan. Our ability to repurchase shares is subject to applicable law, including restrictions arising from the pending merger transaction with Raytheon. No shares were reacquired in transactions outside the program during the quarter ended June 30, 2019.
