NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Trane Technologies plc, a public limited company, incorporated in Ireland in 2009, and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively we, our, the Company or Trane Technologies) is a global climate innovator. The Company brings sustainable and efficient solutions to buildings, homes and transportation through the Company's strategic brands, ~~Trane®~~Trane® and Thermo ~~King®~~King®, and its environmentally responsible portfolio of products, services and connected intelligent controls. The Company generates revenue and cash primarily through the design, manufacture, sales and service of solutions for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC), transport refrigeration, and custom refrigeration solutions.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Trane Technologies ~~reflects~~reflect the consolidated operations of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) interim reporting requirements. Accordingly, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for full financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022.~~2023. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the condensed consolidated results for the interim periods presented.

~~Reorganization of Aldrich and Murray~~

On May 1, 2020, certain subsidiaries of the Company underwent an internal corporate restructuring that was effectuated through a series of transactions (2020 Corporate Restructuring). As a result, Aldrich Pump LLC (Aldrich) and Murray Boiler LLC (Murray), indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Trane Technologies plc, became solely responsible for the asbestos-related liabilities, and the beneficiaries of the asbestos-related insurance assets, of Trane Technologies Company LLC and Trane U.S. Inc, respectively. On a consolidated basis, the 2020 Corporate Restructuring did not have an impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In connection with the 2020 Corporate Restructuring, certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into funding agreements with Aldrich and Murray (collectively the Funding Agreements), pursuant to which those subsidiaries are obligated, among other things, to pay the costs and expenses of Aldrich and Murray during the pendency of the Chapter 11 cases to the extent distributions from their respective subsidiaries are insufficient to do so and to provide an amount for the funding for a trust established pursuant to section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent that the other assets of Aldrich and Murray are insufficient to provide the requisite trust funding.

On June 18, 2020 (Petition Date), Aldrich and Murray filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina (the Bankruptcy Court) to resolve equitably and permanently all current and future asbestos related claims in a manner beneficial to claimants, Aldrich and Murray. As a result of the Chapter 11 filings, all asbestos-related lawsuits against Aldrich and Murray have been stayed due to the imposition of a statutory automatic stay applicable in Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases. Only Aldrich and Murray have filed for Chapter 11 relief. Neither Aldrich's wholly-owned subsidiary, 200 Park, Inc. (200 Park), Murray's wholly-owned subsidiary, ClimateLabs LLC (ClimateLabs), Trane Technologies plc nor its other subsidiaries (the Trane Companies) are part of the Chapter 11 filings. The Trane Companies are expected to continue to operate as usual, with no disruption to their employees, suppliers, or customers globally. As of thePetition Date, Aldrich and its wholly-owned subsidiary 200 Park and Murray and its wholly-owned subsidiary ClimateLabs were deconsolidated and their respective assets and liabilities were derecognized from the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 17, "Commitments and Contingencies," for more information regarding the status of Chapter 11 bankruptcy and asbestos-related matters.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP other than SEC issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) to communicate changes to the codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU's. ASU's not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, ~~“Liabilities~~"Liabilities - Supplier Finance Program (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Program Finance ~~Obligations”,~~Obligations," which requires that a company that enters into a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. To achieve that objective, ~~the~~a company should disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its supplier finance programs. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on roll forward information which is effective on an annual basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. See Note 7, ~~"Supplier~~“Supplier Financing ~~Arrangements"~~Arrangements” for more information regarding the Company's supplier financing program.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but not yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740)" (ASU 2023-09) which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects ASU 2023-09 to require additional disclosures in the notes to its consolidated financial statements and does not plan to early adopt.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" (ASU 2023-07) which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments' oversight and significant expenses on an interim and annual basis. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects ASU 2023-07 to require additional disclosures in the notes to its consolidated financial statements and does not plan to early adopt.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative" (ASU 2023-06) to amend a variety of disclosure requirements in the ASC. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective. Early adoption is prohibited. Upon adoption, this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.

Other Credit Facilities

The Company maintains two $1.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facilities, one of which matures in June 2026 and the other which matures in April 2027 (collectively, the Facilities), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Trane Technologies HoldCo Inc.~~, Trane Technologies Global Holding Company Limited~~ and Trane Technologies Financing Limited (collectively, the Borrowers). ~~Both~~The Facilities include Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) metrics related to two of the Company’s sustainability commitments: a reduction in greenhouse gas intensity and an increase in the percentage of women in management. The Company's annual performance against these ESG metrics may result in price adjustments to the commitment fee and applicable interest rate.

The Facilities provide support for the Company’s commercial paper program and can be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Trane Technologies plc, Trane Technologies Irish Holdings Unlimited Company, Trane Technologies Lux International Holding Company S.à.r.l., Trane Technologies Americas Holding Corporation, Trane Technologies Global Holding II Company Limited and Trane Technologies Company LLC each provide irrevocable and unconditional guarantees for these Facilities.

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of the Company's debt instruments at March 31, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023 was ~~$4.7~~$4.8 billion and ~~$4.6~~$4.7 billion, respectively. The Company measures the fair value of its debt instruments for disclosure purposes based upon observable market prices quoted on public exchanges for similar assets. These fair value inputs are considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 8, “Fair Value Measurements” for information on the fair value hierarchy.

Note 7. Supplier Financing Arrangements

The Company has ~~an agreement~~agreements with ~~a U.S.~~ financial ~~institution~~institutions, primarily in the US, that ~~allows~~allow its suppliers to sell their receivables to the financial institution at the sole discretion of both the supplier and the financial institution on terms that are negotiated between them. The Company may not always be notified when its suppliers sell receivables under ~~this program.~~these arrangements.

The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including the amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by the suppliers’ decisions to sell their receivables under the program. Outstanding invoices under the supplier financing ~~program~~arrangements were ~~$110.9~~$239.4 million and ~~$110.6~~$246.0 million at March 31, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, respectively, which are included within Accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used in developing assumptions when pricing an asset or liability is as follows:

•Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

•Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Observable market data is required to be used in making fair value measurements when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, ~~2023:~~2024:

Derivative instruments include forward foreign currency contracts and instruments related to non-functional currency balance sheet exposures and commodity swaps. The fair value of the foreign exchange ~~derivatives~~derivative instruments is determined based on a pricing model that uses spot rates and forward prices from actively quoted currency markets that are readily accessible and observable. The fair value of the commodity ~~derivatives~~derivative instruments is valued under a market approach using ~~publicized~~published prices, where applicable, or dealer quotes.

On ~~October 15, 2021,~~November 2, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of ~~Farrar Scientific Corporation's (Farrar Scientific) assets.~~Nuvolo Technologies Corporation (Nuvolo). In connection with the acquisition, the Company agreed to two contingent consideration ofarrangements. The first contingent consideration arrangement, payable up to ~~$115.0~~$90.0 million ~~to be paid~~ in ~~2025, tied to~~cash, is based on the attainment of key ~~financial~~revenue targets ~~during~~from November 2, 2023 through April 2025. If the ~~period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. This additional payment,~~first contingent consideration targets are met, a second contingent consideration arrangement with no maximum earnout is available to the ~~extent earned, will be payable~~sellers based on revenues in ~~cash. The fair value~~excess of the ~~contingent consideration is determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model based on projections of revenues for Farrar Scientific during the period of January 1, 2022~~initial targets attained from a specified customer contract through ~~December 31, 2024, implied revenue volatility and a risk adjusted discount rate.~~ April 2025.

Each quarter the Company ~~is required to remeasure~~remeasures the fair value of the liability as assumptions change and such non-cash adjustments are recorded in Selling and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Contingent consideration related to acquisitions are measured at fair value each reporting period using Level 3 unobservable inputs. The fair value of the contingent consideration is determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model based on revenue projections during the earnout period, implied revenue volatility and a risk adjusted discount rate.

The changes in the fair value of the Company's Level 3 liabilities were as follows:

In millions March 31,
2023 December 31,
2022
Balance at beginning of period $ 49.3 $ 96.2
Change in fair value of contingent consideration 2.7 (46.9)
Balance at end of period $ 52.0 $ 49.3

The fair value of the contingent consideration is measured on a recurring basis at each reporting date. The following inputs and assumptions were used in the Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration:

March 31,
2023 December 31,
2022
Discount rate 12.25 % 12.00 %
Volatility 20.00 % 20.00 %


In millions	March 31, 2024
Balance at beginning of period	$	90.3


Measurement period adjustment	(4.1)
Balance at end of period	$	86.2

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are a reasonable estimate of their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. There have been no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

Note 9. Pensions and Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions

The Company sponsors several U.S. defined benefit and defined contribution plans covering substantially all of the Company's U.S. employees. Additionally, the Company has many non-U.S. defined benefit and defined contribution plans covering eligible non-U.S. employees. Postretirement benefits other than pensions (OPEB) provide healthcare benefits, and in some instances, life insurance benefits for certain eligible employees.

Pension Plans

The non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering non-collectively bargained U.S. employees provide benefits on a final average pay formula while plans for most collectively bargained U.S. employees provide benefits on a flat dollar benefit formula or a percentage of pay formula. The non-U.S. pension plans generally provide benefits based on earnings and years of service. The Company also maintains additional other supplemental plans for officers and other key or highly compensated employees.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in accounts receivable, contract assets, and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In general, the Company receives payments from customers based on a billing schedule established in its contracts. Contract assets relate to the conditional right to consideration for any completed performance under the contract when costs are incurred in excess of billings under the ~~percentage-of-completion~~percentage of completion methodology. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of performance under the contract or when the Company has a right to consideration that is unconditional before it transfers a good or service to the customer. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue as (or when) the Company performs under the contract. During the three months ended March 31, ~~2023,~~2024, changes in contract asset and liability balances were not materially impacted by any other factors.

Approximately ~~25%~~30% of the contract liability balance at December 31, ~~2022~~2023 was recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, ~~2023.~~2024. Additionally, approximately ~~30%~~16% of the contract liability balance at March 31, ~~2023~~2024 was classified as noncurrent and not expected to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months.

Note 12. Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation plans under the fair value based method. ~~Fair value is measured once at the date of grant and is not adjusted for subsequent changes.~~ The Company’s share-based compensation plans include programs for stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), performance share units (PSUs) and deferred compensation.

Share-based compensation expense related to continuing operations is included in Selling and administrative expenses. The expense recognized for the three months ended March 31 was as follows:

(1) The number of performance shares represents the maximum award level.

Stock Options / RSUs

Eligible participants may receive (i) stock options, (ii) RSUs or (iii) a combination of both stock options and RSUs. The fair value of each of the Company’s stock option and RSU awards is expensed on a straight-line basis over the required service period, which is generally the 3-year vesting period. ~~However,~~Beginning with the 2024 grant year, for stock options and RSUs granted to retirement eligible employees, the Company recognizes expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is generally 12 months. For awards granted to retirement eligible employees prior to 2024, the Company recognized expense for the fair value at the grant date.

The average fair value of the stock options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used during the three months ended March 31:

2023 2022
Dividend yield 1.50 % 1.60 %
Volatility 29.35 % 28.23 %
Risk-free rate of return 3.60 % 1.56 %
Expected life in years 4.8 4.8


	2024		2023
Dividend yield	1.11	%	1.50	%
Volatility	29.99	%	29.35	%
Risk-free rate of return	4.00	%	3.60	%
Expected life in years	4.8		4.8

A description of the significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the stock option awards is as follows:

•Dividend yield - The Company determines the dividend yield based upon the expected quarterly dividend payments as of the grant date and the current fair market value of the Company’s shares.

•Volatility - The expected volatility is based on a weighted average of the Company’s implied volatility and the most recent historical volatility of the Company’s shares commensurate with the expected life.

•Risk-free rate of return - The Company applies a yield curve of continuous risk-free rates based upon the published US Treasury spot rates on the grant date.

•Expected life in years - The expected life of the Company’s stock option awards represents the weighted-average of the actual period since the grant date for all exercised or canceled options and an expected period for all outstanding options.

Performance Shares

The Company has a Performance Share Program (PSP) for key employees. The program provides awards in the form of PSUs based on performance against pre-established objectives. The annual target award level is expressed as a number of the Company’s ordinary shares based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. All PSUs are settled in the form of ordinary shares.

PSU awards are earned based 50% upon a performance condition, measured by relative Cash Flow Return on Invested Capital (CROIC) to the S&P 500 Industrials Index over a 3-year performance period, and 50% upon a market condition, measured by the Company’s relative total shareholder return (TSR) as compared to the TSR of the S&P 500 Industrials Index over a 3-year performance period. Beginning with the 2024 grant year, for PSUs granted to retirement eligible employees, the Company recognizes the expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is 12 months. For awards granted to retirement eligible employees prior to 2024, the expense was recognized over the 3-year performance period. The fair value of the market condition is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model in a risk-neutral framework based upon historical volatility, risk-free rates and correlation matrix.

Deferred Compensation

The Company allows key employees to defer a portion of their eligible compensation into a number of investment choices, including its ordinary share equivalents. Any amounts invested in ordinary share equivalents will be settled in ordinary shares of the Company at the time of distribution.

Note 14. Income Taxes

On December 18, 2023, Ireland enacted legislation related to the 15% minimum tax element of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) tax reform initiative, commonly referred to as “Pillar Two," effective January 1, 2024. The Company has included the impact of Pillar Two in its full year 2024 estimated annual effective income tax rate. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate the potential impact of proposed legislative changes as new guidance becomes available.

The Company accounts for its Provision for income taxes by applying an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for the full year to the respective interim period, taking into account year-to-date amounts and projected results for the full year. For the three months ended March 31, ~~2023~~2024 and ~~March 31, 2022,~~2023, the Company’s effective income tax rate was ~~18.8%~~19.2% and ~~18.4%~~18.8%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, ~~2023 and March 31, 2022~~2024 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of ~~21%~~21.0% primarily due to excess tax benefits from employee share-based payments and earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions, which, including the impacts of Pillar Two, in aggregate have a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to excess tax benefits from employee share-based payments and earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions, which in aggregate have a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes.

Total unrecognized tax benefits for ~~both~~ March 31, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023 were ~~$82.4 million.~~$84.7 million and $84.9 million, respectively. Although management believes its tax positions and related provisions reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are fully supportable, it recognizes that these tax positions and related provisions may be challenged by various tax authorities. These tax positions and related provisions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted as additional facts and information become available, including progress on tax audits, changes in interpretations of tax laws, developments in case law and closing of statute of limitations. To the extent that the ultimate results differ from the original or adjusted estimates of the Company, the effect will be recorded in Provision for income taxes.

The Provision for income taxes involves a significant amount of management judgment regarding interpretation of relevant facts and laws in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Future changes in applicable laws, projected levels of taxable income and tax planning could change the effective income tax rate and tax balances recorded by the Company. In addition, tax authorities periodically review income tax returns filed by the Company and can raise issues regarding its filing positions, timing and amount of income or deductions, and the allocation of income among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. A significant period of time may elapse between the filing of an income tax return and the ultimate resolution of an issue raised by a revenue authority with respect to that return. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Mexico, Singapore, Spain, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. These examinations on their own, or any subsequent litigation related to the examinations, may result in additional income taxes or penalties against the Company. If the ultimate result of these audits differ from original or adjusted estimates, they could have a material impact on the Company’s ~~tax provision.~~provision for income taxes. In general, the examination of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns is complete or effectively settled for years prior to 2016. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for 2016 to ~~2018~~2019 are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). ~~Subsequent to the first quarter of 2023, the IRS has indicated their intention to add tax year 2019 to their review.~~ In general, the examination of the Company’s material non-U.S. income tax returns is complete or effectively settled for the years prior to 2013, with certain matters prior to 2013 being resolved through appeals and litigation and also unilateral procedures as provided for under double tax treaties.

Note 15. Earnings Per Share

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing Net earnings attributable to Trane Technologies plc by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted EPS is calculated after adjusting the denominator of the basic EPS calculation for the effect of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares, which in the Company’s case, includes shares issuable under share-based compensation plans. The following table summarizes the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the three months ended March 31:

Note 16. Business Segment Information

The Company operates under ~~four~~three regional operating segments designed to create deep customer focus and relevance in markets around the world. The Company determined that its two Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) operating segments meet the aggregation criteria based on similar operating and economic characteristics, resulting in one reportable segment. Therefore, the Company has three regional reportable segments, Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific. Intercompany sales between segments are immaterial.

•The Company’s Americas segment innovates for customers in North America and Latin America. The Americas segment encompasses commercial heating, cooling and ventilation systems, building controls and solutions, and energy services and solutions; residential heating and cooling; and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.

•The Company’s EMEA segment innovates for customers in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. The EMEA segment encompasses heating, cooling and ventilation systems, services and solutions for commercial buildings, and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.

•The Company’s Asia Pacific segment innovates for customers throughout the Asia Pacific region. The Asia Pacific segment encompasses heating, cooling and ventilation systems, services and solutions for commercial buildings, and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.

cash. This measure is a useful financial metric to assess the Company’s operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that it believes are not representative of its core business and the Company uses this measure for business planning purposes. Segment Adjusted EBITDA also provides a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods and the Company’s ability to generate cash, ~~from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to~~ service debt and to undertake capital expenditures because it eliminates non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization expense.

A summary of operations by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31 was as follows:

Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various litigation, claims and administrative proceedings, including those related to the bankruptcy proceedings for Aldrich Pump LLC (Aldrich) and Murray and environmental and product liability matters. The Company records accruals for loss contingencies when it is both probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts recorded for identified contingent liabilities are estimates, which are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available. Subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities, except as expressly set forth in this note, management believes that any liability which may result from these legal matters would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the Company.

Asbestos-Related Matters

Certain wholly-owned subsidiaries and former companies of the Company have been named as defendants in asbestos-related lawsuits in state and federal courts. In virtually all of the suits, a large number of other companies have also been named as defendants. The vast majority of those claims were filed against predecessors of Aldrich and Murray, indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Trane Technologies plc, and generally allege injury caused by exposure to asbestos contained in certain historical products sold by predecessors of Aldrich or Murray, primarily pumps, boilers and railroad brake shoes. None of the Company’s existing or previously-owned businesses were a producer or manufacturer of asbestos.

the asbestos-related liabilities, and the beneficiaries of the asbestos-related insurance assets, of Trane Technologies Company LLC and Trane U.S. Inc, respectively. On a consolidated basis, the 2020 Corporate Restructuring did not have an impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In connection with the 2020 Corporate Restructuring, certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into funding agreements with Aldrich and Murray (collectively the Funding Agreements), pursuant to which those subsidiaries are obligated, among other things, to pay the costs and expenses of Aldrich and Murray during the pendency of the Chapter 11 cases to the extent distributions from their respective subsidiaries are insufficient to do so and to provide an amount for the funding for a trust established pursuant to section 524(g) of Title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code), to the extent that the other assets of Aldrich and Murray are insufficient to provide the requisite trust funding.

On June 18, 2020 (Petition Date), Aldrich and Murray filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina (the Bankruptcy Court) to resolve equitably and permanently all current and future asbestos related claims in a manner beneficial to claimants, ~~and to~~ Aldrich and Murray. Only Aldrich and Murray have filed for Chapter 11 relief. Neither Aldrich's wholly-owned subsidiary, 200 Park, Inc. (200 Park), Murray's wholly-owned subsidiary, ClimateLabs LLC (ClimateLabs), Trane Technologies plc nor its other subsidiaries (the Trane Companies) are part of the Chapter 11 filings. The Trane Companies are expected to continue to operate as usual, with no disruption to their employees, suppliers, or customers globally.

As a result of the Chapter 11 filings, all asbestos-related lawsuits against Aldrich and Murray have been stayed due to the imposition of a statutory automatic stay applicable in Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases. In addition, at the request of Aldrich and Murray, the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order temporarily staying all asbestos-related claims against the Trane Companies that relate to claims against Aldrich or Murray (except for asbestos-related claims for which the exclusive remedy is provided under workers' compensation statutes or similar laws). On August 23, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered its findings of facts and conclusions of law and order declaring that the automatic stay applies to certain asbestos related claims against the Trane Companies and enjoining such actions. As a result, all asbestos-related lawsuits against Aldrich, Murray and the Trane Companies remain stayed.

The goal of these Chapter 11 filings is to resolve equitably and permanently all current and future asbestos-related claims in a manner beneficial to claimants and to Aldrich and Murray through court approval of a plan of reorganization that would create a trust pursuant to section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, establish claims resolution procedures for all current and future asbestos-related claims against Aldrich and Murray and channel such claims to the trust for resolution in accordance with those procedures. Aldrich and Murray intend to seek an agreement with representatives of the asbestos claimants on the terms of a plan for the establishment of such a trust.

Prior to the Petition Date, predecessors of each of Aldrich and Murray had been litigating asbestos-related claims brought against them. No such claims have been paid since the Petition Date, and it is not contemplated that any such claims will be paid until the end of the Chapter 11 cases.

From an accounting perspective, the Company no longer has control over Aldrich and Murray as of the Petition Date as their activities are subject to review and oversight by the Bankruptcy Court. Therefore, Aldrich and its wholly-owned subsidiary 200 Park and Murray and its wholly-owned subsidiary ClimateLabs were deconsolidated as of the Petition Date and their respective assets and liabilities were derecognized from the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Amounts derecognized in ~~the second quarter of~~ 2020 primarily related to the legacy asbestos-related liabilities and asbestos-related insurance recoveries and $41.7 million of cash.

Upon deconsolidation in ~~the second quarter of~~ 2020, the Company recorded its retained interest in Aldrich and Murray at fair value within Other noncurrent assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. In determining the fair value of its equity investment, the Company used a market-adjusted multiple of earnings valuation technique. As a result, the Company recorded an aggregate equity investment of $53.6 million as of the Petition Date.

Simultaneously, the Company recognized a liability of $248.8 million within Other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet related to its obligation under the Funding Agreements. The liability was based on asbestos related liabilities and insurance related assets balances previously recorded by the Company prior to the Petition Date.

As a result of the deconsolidation, the Company recognized an aggregate loss of $24.9 million in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings during the year ended December 31, 2020. A gain of $0.9 million related to Murray and its wholly-owned subsidiary ClimateLabs was recorded within Other income / (expense), net and a loss of $25.8 million related to Aldrich and its wholly-owned subsidiary 200 Park was recorded within Discontinued operations, net of tax. Additionally, the deconsolidation resulted in an investing cash outflow of $41.7 million in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, of which $10.8 million was recorded within continuing operations during the year ended December 31, 2020.

On August 26, 2021, the Company announced that Aldrich and Murray reached an agreement in principle with the court-appointed legal representative of future asbestos claimants (the FCR) in the bankruptcy proceedings. The agreement in principle includes the key terms for the permanent resolution of all current and future asbestos claims against Aldrich and Murray pursuant to a plan of reorganization (the Plan). Under the agreed terms, the Plan would create a trust pursuant to section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and establish claims resolution procedures for all current and future claims against Aldrich and Murray (Asbestos Claims). On the effective date of the Plan, Aldrich and Murray would fund the trust with $545.0 million, comprised of $540.0 million in cash and a promissory note to be issued by Aldrich and Murray to the trust in the principal amount of $5.0 million, and the Asbestos Claims would be channeled to the trust for resolution in accordance with the claims resolution procedures. Following the effective date of the Plan, Aldrich and Murray would have no further obligations with respect to the Asbestos Claims. The FCR has agreed to support such Plan. The agreement in principle with the FCR is subject to final documentation and is conditioned on arrangements acceptable to Aldrich and Murray with respect to their asbestos insurance assets. It is currently contemplated that the asbestos insurance assets of Aldrich and Murray would be contributed to the trust, and that, in consideration of their cash contribution to the trust, Aldrich and Murray would have the exclusive right to pursue, collect and retain all insurance reimbursements available in connection with the resolution of Asbestos Claims by the trust. The committee representing current asbestos claimants (the ACC) is not a party to the agreement in principle. Any settlement and its implementation in a plan of reorganization is subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, and there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will approve the agreement on the terms proposed.

On September 24, 2021, Aldrich and Murray filed the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan is supported by, and reflects the agreement in principle reached with the FCR. On the same date, in connection with the Plan, Aldrich and Murray filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court to create a $270.0 million trust intended to constitute a "qualified settlement fund" within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations under Section 468B of the Internal Revenue Code (QSF). The funds held in the QSF would be available to provide funding for the Section 524(g) Trust upon effectiveness of the Plan.

During the ~~third quarter of~~year ended December 31, 2021, in connection with the agreement in principle reached by Aldrich and Murray with the FCR and the motion to create a $270.0 million QSF, the Company recorded a charge of $21.2 million to increase its Funding Agreement liability to $270.0 million. The corresponding charge was bifurcated between Other income / (expense), net of $7.2 million relating to Murray and discontinued operations of $14.0 million relating to Aldrich.

On January 27, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court granted the request to fund the QSF, which was funded on March 2, 2022, resulting in an operating cash outflow of $270.0 million in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, of which $91.8 million was allocated to continuing operations and $178.2 million was allocated to discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022. On April 18, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting Aldrich and Murray's request to seek to estimate their aggregate liability for all current and future asbestos-related personal injury claims. Aldrich and Murray are pursuing discovery and related matters in connection with the estimation proceedings.

On October 18, 2021, the ACC filed a motion seeking standing to pursue and investigate on behalf of the bankruptcy estates of Aldrich and Murray, claims arising from or related to the 2020 Corporate Restructuring. Also on October 18, 2021, the ACC filed a complaint seeking to substantively consolidate the bankruptcy estates of Aldrich and Murray with certain of the Company's subsidiaries. On December 20, 2021, Aldrich, Murray and certain of the Company's subsidiaries filed motions to dismiss the ACC's substantive consolidation complaint. On April 14, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court granted the ACC's standing motion and denied the motions to dismiss the substantive consolidation complaint. On June 18, 2022, the ACC filed complaints against the Company and other related parties asserting various claims and causes of action arising from or related to the 2020 Corporate Restructuring. ~~Additionally, the Bankruptcy Court denied motions to dismiss the ACC's substantive consolidation complaint. While the~~The Company is vigorously opposing and defending against these ~~claims, it~~claims.

On April 6, 2023, certain individual claimants filed a motion to dismiss the Chapter 11 cases. Subsequently, on May 15, 2023, the ACC filed its own motion to dismiss the Chapter 11 cases. Aldrich, Murray and the FCR filed responses in opposition to each of these motions, and the Company filed papers joining in Aldrich and Murray's opposition. A hearing on the motions to dismiss was held on July 14, 2023. On December 28, 2023, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order denying the motions to dismiss the Chapter 11 cases. On January 11, 2024, the ACC and the individual claimants filed motions seeking leave to appeal the order denying the motions to dismiss and to certify the appeals directly to the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (the Fourth Circuit). At a hearing on February 9, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court granted the motions to certify direct appeals to the Fourth Circuit. On April 17, 2024, the Fourth Circuit entered an order denying the petitions for direct appeal. It is not possible to predict whether an appellate court will affirm or reverse the Bankruptcy Court order denying the motions to dismiss, whether the Bankruptcy Court will approve the terms of the Plan, what the extent of the asbestos liability will be or how long the Chapter 11 cases will last. The Chapter 11 cases remain pending as of ~~May 3, 2023.~~April 30, 2024.

Furthermore, in connection with the 2020 Corporate Restructuring, Aldrich, Murray and their respective subsidiaries entered into several agreements with subsidiaries of the Company to ensure they each have access to services necessary for the effective operation of their respective businesses and access to capital to address any liquidity needs that arise as a result of working capital requirements or timing issues. In addition, the Company regularly transacts business with Aldrich and its wholly-owned subsidiary 200 Park and Murray and its wholly-owned subsidiary ClimateLabs. As of the Petition Date, these entities are considered related parties and post-deconsolidation activity between the Company and them are reported as third party transactions and are reflected within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Since the Petition Date, there were no material transactions between the Company and these entities other than as described above.

Environmental Matters

The Company continues to be dedicated to environmental and sustainability programs to minimize the use of natural resources, and reduce the utilization and generation of hazardous materials from our manufacturing processes and to remediate identified environmental concerns. As to the latter, the Company is currently engaged in site investigations and remediation activities to address environmental cleanup from past operations at current and former manufacturing ~~facilities and off-site waste disposal~~ facilities.

It is the Company’s policy to establish environmental reserves for investigation and remediation activities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and a reasonable estimate of the liability can be made. Estimated liabilities are determined based upon existing remediation laws and technologies. Inherent uncertainties exist in such evaluations due to unknown environmental conditions, changes in government laws and regulations, and changes in cleanup technologies. The environmental reserves are updated on a routine basis as remediation efforts progress and new information becomes available.

The Company is sometimes a party to environmental lawsuits and claims and has received notices of potential violations of environmental laws and regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency and similar state and international authorities. The Company has also been identified as a potentially responsible party (PRP) for cleanup costs associated with off-site waste disposal at federal Superfund and state remediation sites. In most instances at multi-party sites, the Company’s share of the liability is not material.

In estimating its liability at multi-party sites, the Company has assumed it will not bear the entire cost of remediation of any site to the exclusion of other PRPs who may be jointly and severally liable. The ability of other PRPs to participate has been taken into account, based on the Company’s understanding of the parties’ financial condition and probable contributions on a per site basis.

Reserves for environmental matters are classified as Accrued expenses and other current liabilities or Other noncurrent liabilities based on their expected ~~payment date.~~term. As of March 31, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company has recorded reserves for environmental matters of ~~$43.1~~$46.5 million and ~~$42.4~~$47.5 million, respectively. Of these amounts, ~~$37.0~~$38.6 million and ~~$36.5~~$38.9 million, respectively, relate to investigation and remediation of properties and multi-waste disposal sites related to businesses formerly owned by the Company.

Warranty Liability

Standard product warranty accruals are recorded at the time of sale and are estimated based upon product warranty terms and historical experience. The Company assesses the adequacy of its liabilities and will make adjustments as necessary based on known or anticipated warranty claims, or as new information becomes available.

The changes in the standard product warranty liability for the three months ended March 31 were as follows:

Warranty Deferred Revenue

The Company’s extended warranty liability represents the deferred revenue associated with its extended warranty contracts and is amortized into Net revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, unless another method is more representative of the costs incurred. The Company assesses the adequacy of its liability by evaluating the expected costs under its existing contracts to ensure these expected costs do not exceed the extended warranty liability.

The changes in the extended warranty liability for the three months ended March 31 were as follows:

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Part I, Item 1A – Risk Factors in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, as updated by any disclosures under Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factors in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The following section is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information, including our financial statements and the notes thereto, which appears elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Overview

Organizational

Trane Technologies plc is a global climate innovator. We bring sustainable and efficient solutions to buildings, homes and transportation through our strategic brands, Trane® and Thermo King®, and our environmentally responsible portfolio of products, services and connected intelligent controls.

2030 Sustainability Commitments

Our commitment to sustainability extends to the environmental and social impacts of our people, operations, products and services. We have announced ambitious sustainability commitments with a goal of achieving these commitments by 2030 (2030 Sustainability Commitments), including our Gigaton Challenge to reduce customers' carbon emissions by a billion metric tons. We are one of a handful of companies whose emissions reductions targets have been validated three times by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), and one of the very few companies worldwide and first in our industry whose net-zero targets have also been validated. Our emissions reduction commitments align with the Paris Climate Accord net-zero targets, consistent with limiting global temperature rise to no more than 1.5 °C. Our 2030 Sustainability Commitments for scopes 1, 2, and 3 will guide our emissions reduction efforts through 2030, with an emphasis on reducing our largest source: the emissions generated from customer use of our products. We are Leading by Example as we make progress toward carbon-neutral operations and zero waste-to-landfill across our global footprint and net positive water use in water-stressed locations. Our Opportunity for All commitment focuses on gender parity in leadership, workforce diversity reflective of our communities, and a citizenship strategy that helps underserved communities through enhanced learning environments and pathways to green and Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) careers.

~~Recent Acquisitions~~

On May 2, 2023, we completed the acquisition of MTA S.p.A (MTA), a leading technology industrial process cooling business, which will bring complementary, high-performing solutions to the comprehensive Trane Commercial HVAC product and services portfolios in EMEA and North America. The results of the acquisition will be reported primarily within the EMEA segment.

~~Issuance of Senior Notes~~

In March 2023, we issued $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior notes due 2033. The net proceeds were used to fund the redemption of the $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 4.250% Senior Notes due June 2023.

Significant Events

Reorganization of Aldrich and Murray

On June 18, 2020 (Petition Date), our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Aldrich Pump LLC (Aldrich) and Murray Boiler LLC (Murray) each filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina in Charlotte (the Bankruptcy Court). As a result of the Chapter 11 filings, all asbestos-related lawsuits against Aldrich and Murray have been stayed due to the imposition of a statutory automatic stay applicable in Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases. Only Aldrich and Murray have filed for Chapter 11 relief. Neither Aldrich's wholly-owned subsidiary, 200 Park, Inc. (200 Park), Murray's wholly-owned subsidiary, ClimateLabs LLC (ClimateLabs), Trane Technologies plc nor its other subsidiaries (the Trane Companies) are part of the Chapter 11 filings.

The goal of these Chapter 11 filings is to resolve equitably and permanently all current and future asbestos-related claims in a manner beneficial to claimants, ~~and to~~ Aldrich and Murray through court approval of a plan of reorganization that would create a trust pursuant to section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, establish claims resolution procedures for all current and future asbestos-related claims against Aldrich and Murray and channel such claims to the trust for resolution in accordance with those procedures.

Aldrich and its wholly-owned subsidiary 200 Park and Murray and its wholly-owned subsidiary ClimateLabs were deconsolidated as of the Petition Date and their respective assets and liabilities were derecognized from our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Trends and Economic Events

We are a global corporation with worldwide operations. As a global business, our operations are affected by worldwide, regional and industry-specific economic factors as well as ~~political~~geopolitical and social factors wherever we operate or do business. Our geographic diversity and the breadth of our product and services portfolios have helped mitigate the impact of any one industry or the economy of any single country on our consolidated operating results.

Given our broad range of products manufactured and geographic markets served, management uses a variety of factors to predict the outlook for the Company. We monitor key competitors and customers in order to gauge relative performance and the outlook for the future. We regularly perform detailed evaluations of the different market segments we are serving to proactively detect trends and to adapt our strategies accordingly, including potential triggers and actions to be taken under recessionary scenarios. In addition, we believe our backlog and order levels are indicative of future revenue and thus are a key measure of anticipated performance.

Current economic conditions remain mixed across our end markets. We continue to see residual effects from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic impacting both the global Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) and Transport refrigeration end markets as disruptions and delays in the global supply chain and resource constraints continue to be experienced. However, despite these challenges, overall end market demand remained healthy as we continued to proactively manage global supply chain and resource constraints by working closely with our suppliers, customers and logistics providers to mitigate the impacts of our business as we continue to sell, install and service our products.

We expect market conditions to remain mixed across ~~the~~our end markets and geographies where we serve customers. Overall Commercial HVAC markets remain strong due to demand for our ~~customers.~~ differentiated customer driven solutions and the benefits of installing energy efficient products and decarbonizing the built environment, aided by supportive policies and regulations especially in the United States and Europe. Transport refrigeration markets are experiencing lower demand as customers adjust to lower freight rates. Residential markets continue to reflect uncertainty from the normalization of channel inventory across the industry, inflationary and economic risks and higher interest rates.

~~Selling and Administrative Expenses~~

~~Interest Expense~~

~~Interest expense~~ ~~for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by 2.9%, or~~$1.6 million compared with the same period of 2022 primarily due to the issuance of $700.0 million of 5.250% senior notes due March 2033, partially offset by the redemption of $700.0 million of 4.250% senior notes due June 2023.

In addition, we include the components of net periodic benefit credit/(cost) for pension and postretirement obligations other than the service cost component. ~~Other activity, net~~ ~~primarily includes items associated with certain legal and tax matters, as well as activities related to Murray.~~

~~Provision for Income Taxes~~

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 our effective tax rate was 18.8% and 18.4%, respectively, which was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to excess tax benefits from employee share-based payments and earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions, which in aggregate have a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes.

~~Three Months EndedMarch 31, 2023 Compared to the Three Months EndedMarch 31, 2022- Segment Results~~

We operate under four regional operating segments designed to create deep customer focus and relevance in markets around the world. We determined that our two EMEA operating segments meet the aggregation criteria based on similar operating and economic characteristics, resulting in one reportable segment. Therefore, we have ~~three regional reportable segments, Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific.~~owned during both periods presented. We believe organic revenue growth provides investors with useful supplemental information about our revenues in both periods presented.

•Our Americas segment innovates for customers in North America and Latin America. The Americas segment encompasses commercial heating, cooling and ventilation systems, building controls, and energy services and solutions; residential heating and cooling; and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.

•Our EMEA segment innovates for customers in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. The EMEA segment encompasses heating, cooling and ventilation systems, services and solutions for commercial buildings, and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.

•Our Asia Pacific segment innovates for customers throughout the Asia Pacific region. The Asia Pacific segment encompasses heating, cooling and ventilation systems, services and solutions for commercial buildings and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.Segment Adjusted EBITDA

Management measures segment operating performance based on net earnings excluding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, restructuring, non-cash adjustment for contingent consideration, merger and ~~acquisition related~~acquisition-related costs, unallocated corporate expenses and discontinued operations (Segment Adjusted EBITDA). Segment Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under ~~generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP)~~GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for net earnings or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. We believe Segment Adjusted EBITDA provides the most relevant measure of profitability as well as earnings power and the ability to generate cash. This measure is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business and we use this measure for business planning purposes. Segment Adjusted EBITDA also provides a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods and our ability to generate cash, ~~from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to~~ service debt and to undertake capital expenditures because it eliminates non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization expense.

Net Revenues

Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased by 15.0%, or $549.7 million, compared with the same period in 2023, which resulted from the following:



Volume	10.6	%
Pricing	3.0	%
Organic revenue (1)	13.6	%
Acquisitions	1.9	%
Currency translation	(0.5)	%
Total	15.0	%

(1) Represents a non-GAAP measure. For more information, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

The increase in Net revenues was primarily driven by higher volumes as a result of increased end-customer demand within our reportable segments, realization of price increases and incremental revenue from acquisitions, partially offset by an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. Refer to the “Results by Segment” below for a discussion of Net revenues by segment.

Gross Profit Margin

Gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased 340 basis points to 34.6% compared to 31.2% for the same period of 2023 primarily due to gross productivity and price realization, partially offset by inflation.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024increased by 20.3%, or $139.4 million compared with the same period of 2023. The increase in Selling and administrative expenses was primarily driven by an increase in human capital costs related to investing in our people, higher sales commissions, merger and acquisition related costs, including additional headcount and amortization of intangibles, and higher levels of business reinvestment. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased 90 basis points from 18.7% to 19.6%.

Provision for Income Taxes

On December 18, 2023, Ireland enacted legislation related to the 15% minimum tax element of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) tax reform initiative, commonly referred to as “Pillar Two," effective January 1, 2024. We have included the impact of Pillar Two in our full year 2024 estimated annual effective income tax rate. We will continue to monitor and evaluate the potential impacts of proposed legislative changes as new guidance becomes available.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 our effective tax rate was 19.2% and 18.8%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to excess tax benefits from employee share-based payments and earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions, which, including the impacts of Pillar Two, in aggregate have a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to excess tax benefits from employee share-based payments and earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions, which in aggregate have a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes.

Three Months EndedMarch 31, 2024 Compared to the Three Months EndedMarch 31, 2023- Segment Results

We operate under three regional operating segments designed to create deep customer focus and relevance in markets around the world. Intercompany sales between segments are immaterial.

•Our Americas segment innovates for customers in North America and Latin America. The Americas segment encompasses commercial heating, cooling and ventilation systems, building controls and solutions, and energy services and solutions; residential heating and cooling; and transport refrigeration systems and solutions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. In doing so, we review and analyze our current cash on hand, the number of days our sales are outstanding, inventory turns, capital expenditure commitments and income tax payments. Our cash requirements primarily consist of the following:

•Funding of working capital

•Debt service requirements

•Funding of capital expenditures

•Dividend payments

•Funding of acquisitions, joint ventures and equity investments

•Share repurchases

~~Table of Contents~~

Our primary sources of liquidity include cash balances on hand, cash flow from operations, proceeds from debt offerings, commercial paper, and borrowing availability under our existing credit facilities. We earn a significant amount of our operating income in jurisdictions where it is deemed to be permanently reinvested. Our most prominent jurisdiction of operation is the U.S. We expect existing cash and cash equivalents available to the U.S. operations, the cash generated by our U.S. operations, our committed credit lines as well as our expected ability to access the capital and debt markets will be sufficient to fund our U.S. operating and capital needs for at least the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. In addition, we expect existing non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents and the cash generated by our non-U.S. operations will be sufficient to fund our non-U.S. operating and capital needs for at least the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. The maximum aggregate amount of unsecured commercial paper notes available to be issued, on a private placement basis, under the commercial paper program is $2.0 billion, of which we had no$100.0 million outstanding ~~balance~~ as of March 31, ~~2023.~~2024.

As of March 31, ~~2023,~~2024, we had ~~$692.9~~$849.9 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand, of which ~~$584.0~~$674.0 million was held by non-U.S. subsidiaries. Cash and cash equivalents held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries are generally available for use in our U.S. operations via intercompany loans, equity infusions or via distributions from direct or indirectly owned non-U.S. subsidiaries for which we do not assert permanent reinvestment. As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017, additional repatriation opportunities to access cash and cash equivalents held by non-U.S. subsidiaries have been created. In general, repatriation of cash to the U.S. can be completed with no significant incremental U.S. tax. However, to the extent that we repatriate funds from non-U.S. subsidiaries for which we assert permanent reinvestment to fund our U.S. operations, we would be required to accrue and pay applicable non-U.S. taxes. As of March 31, ~~2023,~~2024, we currently have no plans to repatriate funds from subsidiaries for which we assert permanent reinvestment.

We expect to pay a competitive and growing dividend. Since the launch of Trane Technologies in March 2020, we have increased our quarterly share dividend by ~~42%~~58%, from $0.53 to ~~$0.75~~$0.84 per ordinary share, or $2.12 to ~~$3.00~~$3.36 per share annualized. The first quarter ~~2023~~2024 dividend was declared and paid induring the three months ended March ~~2023 and the second quarter 2023 was declared in April 2023 to be paid in June 2023.~~31, 2024.

Share repurchases are made from time to time in accordance with management's capital allocation strategy, subject to market conditions and regulatory requirements. In February 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $3.0 billion of our ordinary shares (2022 Authorization) ~~upon the completion of our $2.0 billion ordinary share repurchase program authorized in 2021 (2021 Authorization)~~. During the three months ended March 31, ~~2023,~~2024, we repurchased and canceled approximately $300 million of our ordinary shares, ~~thus completing the 2021 Authorization and initiating repurchases~~leaving $2.2 billion remaining under the 2022 ~~Authorization of~~Authorization. Additionally, in April 2024, we repurchased approximately ~~$100~~$131 million of our ordinary shares ~~leaving $2.9 billion remaining~~ under the 2022 Authorization.

We continue to actively manage and strengthen our business portfolio to meet the current and future needs of our customers. We achieve this partly through engaging in research and development and sustaining activities and partly through acquisitions. Sustaining activities include costs incurred to reduce production costs, improve existing products, create custom solutions for customers and provide support to our manufacturing facilities. Our research and development and sustaining costs account for approximately two percent of annual net revenues. Each year, we make investments in new product development and new technology innovation as they are key factors in achieving our strategic objectives as a leader in the climate sector. In addition, we make investments in technology and ~~our~~ business for our operational sustainability programs. For example, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, we entered into a new renewable energy agreement for our Clarksville, Tennessee facility, which translates to an annual Scope 2 carbon reduction in excess of 7,000 metric tons. Ongoing construction and commissioning activities are underway for the two new onsite solar energy generation systems at our Pueblo, Colorado and Monterrey, Mexico facilities to generate electricity to offset fossil based electricity purchased from the grid. We also transitioned to a next generation refrigerant with low global warming potential (GWP) for transport refrigeration equipment manufactured at our Hastings, Nebraska facility and are continuing work to transition to low GWP refrigerant on our first commercial product at our Pueblo, Colorado factory. These actions represent important steps to reduce our Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emissions and improve our customer’s carbon performance over the operating life of Trane Technologies’ equipment. These Leading by Example successes did not result in material expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

We continue to look for similar improvement opportunities including, but not limited to, increasing energy efficiency, developing products that allow for use of lower GWP refrigerants, reducing material content in products, and designing products for circularity. All new product development (NPD) programs must complete a Design for Sustainability module within our NPD process to ensure that every program has a positive impact on sustainability. We also focus on partnering with our suppliers and technology providers to align their investment decisions with our technical requirements.

In pursuing our business strategy, we routinely conduct discussions, evaluate targets and enter into agreements regarding possible acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and equity investments. Since 2020, we acquired several businesses, entered into joint ventures and invested in companies that complement existing products and services further enhancing our product portfolio.

We incur costs associated with restructuring initiatives intended to result in improved operating performance, profitability and working capital levels. Actions associated with these initiatives may include workforce reductions, improving manufacturing productivity, realignment of management structures and rationalizing certain assets. Post separation, we have reduced costs by approximately $240 million through December 31, 2022 and expect to reduce costs by an additional $60 million during 2023 for a total of $300 million in total annual savings under our transformation initiatives. In order to achieve these cost savings, we anticipate to incur costs up to $150 million through 2023. We have incurred approximately $131 million of costs cumulatively through March 31, 2023. We believe that our existing cash balances, anticipated cash flow from operations, committed credit lines and access to the capital markets will be sufficient to fund share repurchases, dividends, research and development, sustaining activities, business portfolio changes and ongoing restructuring actions.

Certain of our subsidiaries entered into Funding Agreements with Aldrich and Murray pursuant to which those subsidiaries are obligated, among other things, to pay the costs and expenses of Aldrich and Murray during the pendency of the Chapter 11 cases to the extent distributions from their respective subsidiaries are insufficient to do so and to provide an amount for the funding for a trust established pursuant to section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent that the other assets of Aldrich and Murray are insufficient to provide the requisite trust funding. During the third quarter of 2021, Aldrich and Murray filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court to create a $270 million QSF. The funds held in the QSF would be available to provide funding for the Section 524(g) Trust upon effectiveness of the Plan. On January 27, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court granted the request to fund the QSF, which was funded on March 2, 2022.

Debt and Credit Facilities

As of March 31, ~~2023,~~2024, our short-term obligations primarily consist of ~~$340.8~~current maturities of $499.6 million of long-term debt that matures in November 2024 and $295.0 million of fixed rate debentures that contain a put feature that the holders may exercise on each anniversary of the issuance date. If exercised, we are obligated to repay in whole or in part, at the holder’s option, the outstanding principal amount (plus accrued and unpaid interest) of the debentures held by the holder. Holders who had the option to exercise puts up to $37.2 million for settlement in February 2024 did not exercise such option. In the months of September and October 2024, in accordance with notice requirements as specified in the offering documents, holders will have the option to elect to exercise puts up to $257.8 million for settlement in November 2024. We also maintain a commercial paper program which is used for general corporate purposes. Under the program, the maximum aggregate amount of unsecured commercial paper notes available to be issued, on a private placement basis, is $2.0 billion. We had no$100.0 million of commercial paper outstanding at March 31, ~~2023 and~~2024. We had no outstanding balance under the commercial paper program as of December 31, ~~2022.~~2023. See Note 6, "Debt and Credit Facilities," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the terms of our short-term obligations.

Our long-term obligations primarily consist of long-term debt with final maturity dates ranging between ~~2024~~2025 and 2049. In addition, we maintain two $1.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facilities, one of which matures in June 2026 and the other which matures in April 2027. The facilities provide support for our commercial paper program and can be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Total commitments of $2.0 billion were unused at March 31, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022.~~2023. See Note 6, "Debt and Credit Facilities," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and further below in Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information for additional information regarding the terms of our long-term obligations and their related guarantees.

Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we funded the continuing operations component of the QSF for $91.8 million.~~and an improved cash conversion cycle.

Investing Activities

Cash flows from investing activities represent inflows and outflows regarding the purchase and sale of assets. Primary activities associated with these items include capital expenditures, proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment, acquisitions, investments in joint ventures and ~~complementary businesses and~~ divestitures. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $81.7 million. The primary driver of the usage was attributable to capital expenditures of $83.8 million, partially offset by cash provided by other investing activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $91.0 million. The primary driver of the usage was attributable to capital expenditures of $77.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $82.7 million. The primary driver of the usage was attributable to capital expenditures of $74.8 million.

Financing Activities

Cash flows from financing activities represent inflows and outflows that account for external activities affecting equity and debt. Primary activities associated with these actions include paying dividends to shareholders, repurchasing our own shares, issuing our ~~own~~ stock and debt transactions. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $386.7 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $459.2 million. The primary drivers of the outflow related to the repurchase of $300.0 million in ordinary shares and dividends paid to ordinary shareholders of $170.3 million.

The primary drivers of the outflow related to the repurchase of $350.0 million in ordinary shares and dividends paid to ordinary shareholders of $155.9 million.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure and defined as Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operating activities adjusted for capital expenditures, cash payments for restructuring, legacy legal liability, transformation costs and merger and acquisition (M&A) related ~~costs and thecontinuing operations component of the QSF funding.~~costs. This measure is useful to management and investors because it is consistent with management's assessment of our operating cash flow performance. The most comparable GAAP measure to free cash flow is Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operating activities. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operating activities in accordance with GAAP.

Pensions

Our investment objective in managing defined benefit plan assets is to ensure that all present and future benefit obligations are met as they come due. We seek to achieve this goal while trying to mitigate volatility in plan funded status, contribution and expense by better matching the characteristics of the plan assets to that of the plan liabilities. We use a dynamic approach to asset allocation ~~whereby a plan's allocation~~ to increase fixed income assets ~~increases~~ as the plan's funded status improves. We monitor plan funded status and asset allocation regularly in addition to investment manager performance.

WeIn addition, we monitor the impact of market conditions on our defined benefit plans on a regular basis. None of our defined benefit pension plans have experienced a significant impact on their liquidity due to market volatility. The Company currently projects that it will contribute a total of approximately ~~$70~~$61 million to our enterprise plans worldwide in ~~2023.~~2024. For further details on pension plan activity, see Note 9, "Pensions and Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

For a further discussion of Liquidity and Capital Resources, refer to the discussion under that heading herein and in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved in various litigation, claims and administrative proceedings, including those related to the bankruptcy proceedings for Aldrich and Murray and environmental and product liability matters. Amounts recorded for identified contingent liabilities are estimates, which are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available. Subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities, except as expressly set forth in Note 17, "Commitments and Contingencies," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, management

~~Table of Contents~~

believes that the liability which may result from these legal matters would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows.

Table of Contents

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with those accounting principles requires management to use ~~judgments~~judgment in making estimates and assumptions based on the relevant information available at the end of each period. These estimates and assumptions have a significant effect on reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities because they result primarily from the need to make estimates and assumptions on matters that are inherently uncertain. Actual results may differ from these estimates. If updated information or actual amounts are different from previous estimates, the revisions are included in our results for the period in which they become known.

Management believes there have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, ~~2023,~~2024, to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting estimates in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.
