What were Honeywell's primary revenue drivers in 2013?

Honeywell's revenue in 2013 was primarily driven by its four reportable segments: Aerospace, Automation and Control Solutions (ACS), Performance Materials and Technologies (PMT), and Transportation Systems. The Aerospace segment saw sales of $12.0 billion, ACS achieved $16.6 billion, PMT generated $6.8 billion, and Transportation Systems had $3.8 billion in sales. Growth within these segments was influenced by factors such as new aircraft production, demand for building automation and control systems, performance materials, and automotive turbochargers.

How did Honeywell manage its profitability and costs in 2013?

Honeywell focused on operational excellence and cost management through its 'Honeywell Enablers' (HOS, VPD, FT). The company reported an 8% increase in segment profit, outperforming revenue growth. Key factors contributing to improved profitability included lower pension expenses (primarily due to a reduced mark-to-market adjustment), favorable segment gross margins across most businesses, and disciplined selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which decreased as a percentage of sales.

What significant strategic moves did Honeywell make in 2013?

In 2013, Honeywell pursued a balanced strategy of investment and portfolio optimization. It completed strategic acquisitions of Intermec, Inc. (mobile computing and RFID) and RAE Systems, Inc. (gas and radiation detection systems) to strengthen its Automation and Control Solutions segment. Simultaneously, the company continued to divest non-core businesses, with an agreement to sell its Friction Materials business announced in January 2014. The company also repurchased $1.1 billion of its common stock and increased its dividend by 10%.

What is Honeywell's exposure to government contracts and international markets?

Sales to the U.S. Government, primarily through its Aerospace segment, amounted to $3.9 billion in 2013, a slight decrease from prior years. The company noted an expected slight decline in defense and space revenue for 2014 due to anticipated lower U.S. government spending. Internationally, Honeywell had a strong presence, with 55% of its total sales generated outside the U.S., including 29% in Europe and 13% in Asia, indicating significant reliance on global economic conditions and diverse geographic markets.
