Segment Results

The company's reportable segments are Collins Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney, Raytheon Intelligence & Space (RIS) and Raytheon Missiles & Defense (RMD).

Collins Aerospace had second quarter 2022 adjusted sales of $5,011 million, up 10 percent versus the prior year. The increase in sales was driven by a 25 percent increase in commercial aftermarket and a 14 percent increase in commercial OE, which more than offset a 6 percent decline in military. The increase in commercial sales was driven primarily by the recovery of commercial air traffic which has resulted in higher flight hours, aircraft fleet utilization, and narrowbody OE volume. This was partially offset by lower material receipts on military programs and expected declines in F-35 volume.

Collins Aerospace recorded adjusted operating profit of $617 million in the quarter, up 19 percent versus the prior year. The increase in adjusted operating profit was primarily driven by drop through on higher commercial aftermarket, which more than offset higher SG&A expense, the absence of prior year favorable contract settlements, and lower military sales volume.

Pratt & Whitney had second quarter 2022 adjusted sales of $4,969 million, up 16 percent versus the prior year. The increase in sales was driven by a 26 percent increase in commercial aftermarket, a 22 percent increase in commercial OE, and a 5 percent increase in military. The increase in commercial sales was primarily due to higher shop visits and related spare part sales and favorable large engine mix and volume. The increase in military sales was driven primarily by the timing of the award for the Lot 15 and 16 F135 production contract in Q2 and higher F135 aftermarket volume.

Pratt & Whitney recorded adjusted operating profit of $303 million in the quarter, up 216 percent versus the prior year. The increase in adjusted operating profit was primarily driven by drop through on higher commercial aftermarket sales volume, favorable commercial OE mix, and higher military sales volume. This was partially offset by higher SG&A and R&D.

RIS had second quarter 2022 adjusted sales of $3,570 million, down 6 percent versus the prior year. The decrease in sales was primarily driven by the divestiture of the Global Training and Services business. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, sales were down 1 percent versus prior year. Lower expected sales in Command, Control and Communications as well as lower sales within Sensing and Effects were partially offset by higher sales in classified cyber programs within Cyber, Training and Services.

RIS recorded adjusted operating profit of $315 million, down 24 percent versus the prior year. The decrease in adjusted operating profit was primarily driven by lower net program efficiencies, including unfavorable development program adjustments, the impact of the Global Training and Services divestiture, and the absence of a prior year land sale.

RMD had second quarter 2022 adjusted sales of $3,558 million, down 11 percent versus prior year. The decrease in sales was primarily driven by continuing supply chain constraints and expected declines on certain Land Warfare and Air Defense programs, which were partially offset by higher volume on SPY-6 production and Next Generation Interceptor development.

RMD recorded adjusted operating profit of $348 million, down 35 percent versus the prior year. The decrease in adjusted operating profit was driven primarily by lower net program efficiencies across various programs resulting from continued supply chain constraints, unfavorable program mix and lower volume primarily in Land Warfare and Air Defense programs.

Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Raytheon Technologies Corporation ("RTC") reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP").

We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP information presented provides investors with additional useful information, but should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for the related GAAP measures. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Adjusted net sales, organic sales, adjusted operating profit (loss), adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net sales represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding significant items of a non-recurring and/or nonoperational nature (hereinafter referred to as "other significant items"). Organic sales represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and other significant items. Adjusted operating profit (loss) represents operating profit (loss) (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments and other significant items. Acquisition accounting adjustments include the amortization of acquired intangible assets related to acquisitions, the amortization of the property, plant and equipment fair value adjustment acquired through acquisitions and the amortization of customer contractual obligations related to loss making or below market contracts acquired.

Adjusted net income represents net income from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments and other significant items. Adjusted EPS represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments and other significant items. For the Business segments, when applicable, adjustments of net sales similarly reflect continuing operations excluding other significant items, organic sales similarly excludes the impact of foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures, and other significant items, and adjustments of operating profit (loss) and operating profit margins (also referred to as return on sales (ROS)) similarly reflect continuing operations, excluding restructuring, acquisition accounting adjustments and other significant items.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity and an additional basis for assessing RTC's ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of RTC's common stock and distribution of earnings to shareowners.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the corresponding amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP appears in the tables in this Appendix. The tables provide additional information as to the items and amounts that have been excluded from the adjusted measures.

When we provide our expectation for adjusted EPS and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected diluted EPS from continuing operations and expected cash flow from operations, respectively) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.
