Overview

Johnson Controls International plc, headquartered in Cork, Ireland, is a global leader in thermal management, mission-critical building systems, energy efficiency, and decarbonization. The Company helps customers create, maintain, and optimize indoor operating environments that use energy more productively, reduce carbon emissions, and support the precise, reliable and

32

resilient operating conditions in rapidly expanding industries such as data centers, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, advanced manufacturing, and higher education.

The Company is a fully integrated industrial technology company that engineers, manufactures, commissions and retrofits building products and systems, including commercial heating, ventilating, air-conditioning ("HVAC") equipment, industrial refrigeration systems, controls, security systems, fire-detection systems and fire-suppression solutions. The Company further serves customers by providing technical services through a large global field workforce and service network along with its system integration expertise and managing the full lifecycle of critical indoor environments — from design and commissioning through ongoing service and retrofit. Combining its broad product portfolio, digital capabilities, direct channel and lifecycle service expertise, the Company partners with customers to address distinct and diverse operating environments, regulatory requirements, and the critical operational needs of their facilities.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the September 30, 2025 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, along with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025 filed with the SEC on November 14, 2025. References in the following discussion and analysis to "Three Months," "Third Quarter" or similar language refer to the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, while "Year-to-Date" refers to nine months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2025.

Macroeconomic Trends

Much of the demand for the Company’s products, services and solutions is driven by commercial, institutional, industrial, data center and governmental construction, industrial facility expansion, retrofit activity, maintenance projects and other capital investments in buildings within the sectors that the Company serves. Construction and other capital investment projects are heavily dependent on general economic conditions, localized demand for real estate and availability of credit, public funding or other sources of financing. In addition, most real estate developers rely heavily on project financing in order to initiate and complete projects. Positive or negative fluctuations in these dependencies could have a corresponding impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company maintains global operations. The Company has experienced, and could again experience, increased material cost inflation and component shortages, as well as disruptions and delays in its supply chain, as a result of global macroeconomic trends including the imposition of tariffs and other restrictive trade measures. The United States has announced tariffs and reciprocal tariffs on a wide range of products manufactured or produced worldwide, including Canada, China, the European Union, Japan, India and Mexico, among others. Several countries have similarly announced reciprocal or other tariffs impacting products manufactured or produced in the United States. In addition, the United States and other nations have, and may in the future, pause, reimpose, decrease or increase tariffs. Although the Company has been largely able to mitigate the impact of tariffs that have been enacted to date, if additional tariffs and reciprocal tariffs are implemented (whether as currently proposed or otherwise), such actions could negatively impact the Company's revenue growth and margins in future periods through decreased sales and increased cost of goods sold. In February 2026, certain tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA"), were invalidated by the U.S. Supreme Court. However, the United States has since imposed new tariffs and duties in their place. The Company is participating in the IEEPA refund process. To date, the tariffs enacted by the United States and other countries and refunds claimed under the IEEPA refund process have not had a material impact on the Company's financial performance for the periods presented.

Geopolitical and economic tensions, including the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, have the potential to cause disruptions in global supply chains, increase costs and create overall volatility. The ongoing conflicts in the Middle East have disrupted energy supplies and supply chains, increased costs for energy and other supplies and created volatility in the capital markets, among other impacts. The continued net effect of these events will continue to depend on the Company’s ability to successfully mitigate and offset their impacts.

The Company is taking actions to mitigate the actual and anticipated impact of ongoing trade restrictions and geopolitical conflict, including strengthening the Company's in region, for region manufacturing strategy, pivoting to local sourcing in its supply chain, accelerating pricing actions and asserting contractual rights through change orders. The Company has historically taken a variety of actions to mitigate trade restrictions, supply chain disruptions and inflation, including through expanding and redistributing its supplier network, supplier financing, accelerated purchasing and productivity improvements. These actions have largely been successful in mitigating the impacts of the current macroeconomic environment, however, it is uncertain as to whether the actions taken or contemplated to be taken by the Company will be effective in continuing to mitigate the impact of

33

current and future trade restrictions and their related impacts. The Company continues to actively monitor and evaluate the development and potential impacts of tariffs, trade restrictions and geopolitical conflicts on its supply chain and results of operations.

As a result of the Company’s global presence, a significant portion of its revenues an

Further, the Company has experienced, and could again experience, increased material cost inflation and component shortages, as well as disruptions and delays in its supply chain, as a result of global macroeconomic trends including the imposition of tariffs and other restrictive trade measures, as well as geopolitical and economic tensions. The net effect of these events will continue to depend on the Company’s ability to successfully mitigate and offset their impact.

The Company is taking actions to mitigate the actual and anticipated impact of these events, including strengthening the Company's in region, for region manufacturing strategy, pivoting to local sourcing in its supply chain, accelerating pricing actions and asserting contractual rights through change orders. The Company has historically taken a variety of actions to mitigate trade restrictions, supply chain disruptions and inflation, including through expanding and redistributing its supplier network, supplier financing, accelerated purchasing and productivity improvements. These actions have largely been successful mitigating the impacts of the current macroeconomic environment, however, it is uncertain as to whether the actions taken or contemplated to be taken by the Company will be effective in continuing to mitigate the impact of current and future trade restrictions and their related impacts. The Company continues to actively monitor and evaluate the development and potential impacts of tariffs and other trade restrictions on its supply chain and results of operations.

As a result of the Company’s global presence, a significant portion of its revenues and expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which results in non-U.S. currency risks and exchange exposure. While the Company employs financial instruments to hedge some of its transactional foreign exchange exposure, these activities do not insulate it completely from those exposures. In addition, currency exposure from the translation of non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries cannot be hedged. Exchange rates can be volatile and a substantial weakening or strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar could increase or reduce the Company’s profit margin, respectively, and impact the comparability of results from period to period.

The Company continues to observe trends demonstrating increased interest and demand for its products and services that enable smart, safe, efficient and sustainable buildings, which are driven in part by government tax incentives, building performance standards and other regulations designed to limit emissions and combat climate change. In particular, legislative and regulatory initiatives such as the EU Energy Efficiency Directive, EU Heat Transition, U.S. Inflation Reduction Act and EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive include provisions designed to fund and encourage investment in decarbonization and digital technologies for buildings. This demand is supplemented by an increase in commitments in both the public and private sectors to reduce emissions and/or achieve net zero emissions. In addition, the increased maturity and adoption of AI and high-performance computing is currently impacting the microchip and data center industry and driving technology innovation, which has led to increased demand for hyperscale and data center cooling solutions that deliver heat management and energy efficiency. The Company seeks to capitalize on these trends to enable delivery of sustainable, high-efficiency products and tailored services to enable customers to achieve their sustainability, heat management and energy efficiency goals. The Company is leveraging its install base, together with data-driven products and services, to offer outcome-based solutions to customers with a focus on generating accelerated growth in services and recurring revenue.

Certain of our customers, including governmental and institutional customers, have exhibited increased uncertainty regarding future spending decisions due to various political and economic factors, including budget reductions, reprioritization of spending, interest rate fluctuation and economic uncertainty. This uncertainty has and may in the future impact on the Company's ability to predict and forecast the revenue and backlog associated with these customers.

The extent to which the Company’s results of operations and financial condition are impacted by these and other factors in the future will depend on developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. See Part I, Item 1A, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for an additional discussion of risks.

Portfolio Simplification Transactions

The Company continues to engage in an ongoing evaluation of its non-core product lines in connection with its objective to be a pure-play provider of comprehensive solutions for commercial buildings. On July 31, 2025, the Company completed the divestiture of its Residential and Light Commercial ("R&LC") HVAC business to Robert Bosch GmbH (“Bosch”) for net cash proceeds of approximately $5.6 billion after tax and transaction-related expenses. The R&LC HVAC business included the Company's North America Ducted business and Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning Holding (UK) Ltd., the Company’s global residential joint venture with Hitachi Global Life Solutions, Inc.

Restructuring and Cost Optimization Initiatives

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company committed to a multi-year restructuring plan to address stranded costs and further right-size global operations as a result of previously announced portfolio simplification actions. It is expected that one-time restructuring costs, including severance and other employee termination benefits, contract termination costs, and certain other related cash and non-cash charges, of approximately $400 million will be incurred over the course of fiscal 2025, 2026 and 2027, resulting in expected annual cost savings of approximately $500 million upon full completion of the plan. Restructuring and transformation costs in fiscal 2025 have been material, resulting in savings in 2025 and additional expected savings in fiscal 2026 and 2027. Restructuring costs will be incurred across all segments and Corporate functions. Refer to Note 16, "Restructuring and Related Costs," for an update on the restructuring plan.

[[/GREPCENT_TABLE]]

The increase in net sales was due to higher organic sales ($1,430 million), partially offset by the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures ($786 million). Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and business acquisitions and divestitures, consolidated net sales increased 6% over the prior year, driven by growth in Services across all segments as well as growth in Products and Systems, led by the Americas. Refer to the "Segment Analysis" below within Item 7 for a discussion of net sales by segment. Refer to Note 4, "Revenue Recognition," of the notes to consolidated financial statements for further disclosure related to the net sales allocation between products and systems versus services revenue.
