What is the main purpose of this 8-K filing by RTX Corp (formerly UTC)?

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to officially announce and furnish a press release detailing United Technologies Corporation's financial results for the full year and the fourth quarter of 2016.

Where can I find the specific financial results for Q4 and full-year 2016?

The specific financial results, as well as operational commentary, are contained within the press release dated January 25, 2017, which is provided as Exhibit 99 to this 8-K filing.

Does this 8-K filing itself contain the detailed financial numbers?

No, this 8-K filing primarily serves as a cover for the press release. The detailed financial numbers and analysis are presented in the furnished press release (Exhibit 99), not within the 8-K document itself.

What is the significance of the press release 'not being deemed filed'?

When information is furnished and not deemed 'filed,' it means that the company is providing it for informational purposes but is not subject to the same liabilities under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as if it were formally filed. This is a common practice for earnings press releases.
