UTC SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS PER SHARE RISE 3 CENTS TO $1.26, REVENUES INCREASE 6 PERCENT; FULL-YEAR OUTLOOK REAFFIRMED
HARTFORD, Conn., July 17, 2003 - United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX) today reported second quarter 2003 earnings per share increased to $1.26, up 3 cents from the same quarter last year. Net income grew slightly to $632 million. Consolidated revenues rose 6 percent to $7.8 billion.
Second quarter cash flow from operations was $803 million including a voluntary pension contribution of $100 million. Capital expenditures for the quarter were $109 million. Acquisition related spending was $76 million, the majority for the purchase of Chubb plc shares. The debt to total capital ratio was 34 percent, 3 percentage points below December 31, 2002.
"These solid results reflect yet again the benefits of UTC's global portfolio and successful cost reduction efforts given an exceptionally weak commercial aviation market and poor economic conditions generally. We affirm our outlook for earnings per share for the year in the $4.55-4.80 range, as indicated to investors last December," said George David, chairman and chief executive officer.
"Strong revenue growth and 150 basis points of margin expansion at Otis, combined with Carrier's fifth consecutive quarterly margin increase, helped offset the commercial aviation weakness. Foreign exchange boosted these commercial companies' results in the quarter but they also saw significant growth in many countries, particularly China where combined Otis and Carrier revenues grew 25 percent. Commercial aerospace sales declined 13 percent in the quarter but military aerospace business grew 16 percent. Balance works," David said.
"Cash flow from operations in the quarter was exceptionally strong. Even net of capital expenditures and including the $100 million pension contribution, we still exceeded net income," David said. UTC reaffirmed guidance for cash flow from operations, before pension contributions and after capital expenditures, equal to or potentially exceeding net income for the year.
Effective this week, more than 50 percent of the common stock of Chubb plc has been tendered to or is owned by UTC. U.S. regulatory approval has been secured, and a decision is expected in Europe in July. With the addition of Chubb plc, UTC's 2002 commercial revenues would have increased to 61 percent of total revenues versus the 57 percent reported, continuing a business shift under way for two decades. Chubb plc operates in commercial security and fire protection markets with a predominance of revenues in Europe and Asia. Including Chubb plc, UTC's 2002 international revenues would have increased to 59 percent of total revenues versus the 56 percent reported.
