Management Discussion
- Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- We are a leading global provider of security products and solutions operating in two segments: Allegion Americas and Allegion International. We sell a wide range of security products and solutions for end-users in commercial, institutional and residential facilities worldwide, including the education, healthcare, government, hospitality, retail, commercial office and single and multi-family residential markets. Our leading brands include CISA, Interflex, LCN, Schlage, SimonsVoss and Von Duprin.
- During 2023, we experienced stable demand for our non-residential products and services in our Allegion Americas segment. As the year progressed, customers began adjusting ordering patterns in response to our reduced lead times due to improved supply chain and operational execution, which resulted in abnormal seasonality of non-residential revenues in 2023. Macroeconomic conditions had a more challenging impact on the demand for our residential products in our Allegion Americas segment which negatively impacted revenues. We also experienced a continued softening of demand in our Global Portable Security and China businesses in our Allegion International segment.
