Filed July 28, 2022For Securities:CARR

Summary

Carrier Global Corporation's (CARR) second-quarter 2022 results show a net sales decrease of 4% to $5.21 billion, primarily impacted by the divestiture of the Chubb Fire & Security business and ongoing supply chain challenges. Despite this, organic sales grew by 7%, driven by strong demand and pricing improvements across the HVAC and Refrigeration segments. Net income attributable to common shareholders increased by 18% year-over-year to $573 million, or $0.67 per diluted share. The company continues to manage costs effectively, with operating expenses down 25% largely due to the Chubb divestiture, and has a solid liquidity position with $3.0 billion in cash and cash equivalents. The six-month period paints a similar picture, with a 3% decrease in net sales to $9.87 billion, offset by a 9% organic sales growth. Net income attributable to common shareholders more than doubled to $1.95 billion ($2.25 per diluted share), significantly boosted by a substantial gain from the Chubb divestiture. The company is actively managing its portfolio, including the pending acquisition of a majority stake in Toshiba Carrier Corporation, and is focused on navigating persistent supply chain issues while benefiting from long-term secular trends in its core markets.
