CORK, Ireland, May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson Controls International plc (NYSE: JCI), a global leader for smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, today reported fiscal second quarter 2024 GAAP earnings per share ("EPS") of $(0.41). Excluding special items, adjusted EPS was $0.78 (see attached footnotes for non-GAAP reconciliation).
Sales in the quarter of $6.7 billion were flat compared to the prior year on an as reported basis and increased 1% organically. GAAP net loss was $(277) million. Adjusted net income was $533 million.
"We are proud of the work underway at Johnson Controls as we delivered another successful quarter, underscored by accelerating sales growth and margin expansion," said George Oliver, Chairman and CEO.

Our record backlog provides visibility into the remainder of the fiscal year and we remain confident in our ability to deliver on our financial and operational commitments as we continue our transformation into a comprehensive solutions provider for commercial buildings."
Income and EPS amounts attributable to Johnson Controls ordinary shareholders
($ millions, except per-share amounts)
The financial highlights presented in the tables below are in accordance with GAAP, unless otherwise indicated. All comparisons are to the fiscal second quarter of 2023.
Organic sales growth, adjusted segment EBITA, adjusted segment EBITA margin, adjusted corporate expense, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, and adjusted free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures and detail of the special items, refer to the attached footnotes.
This press release includes forward-looking statements regarding organic revenue growth, adjusted segment EBITA margin improvement and adjusted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts excluded is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period and the high variability of certain amounts, such as mark-to-market adjustments. Organic revenue growth excludes the effect of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's fiscal 2024 third quarter and full year GAAP financial results.

Adjusted segment EBITA excludes costs for a product quality issue, partially offset by a favorable earn-out liability adjustment in Q2 2024. Adjusted segment EBITA excludes a favorable earn-out liability adjustment in Q2 2023.

(5) Adjusted segment EBITA excludes costs related to a product quality issue within the Company's Global Products business for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024. Management believes the exclusion of these costs is useful to investors due to the unusual nature and magnitude of the expected related costs. |

The Company's press release and earnings presentation include forward-looking statements regarding organic revenue growth, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts excluded is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period and the high variability of certain amounts, such as mark-to-market adjustments. Organic revenue growth excludes the effect of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's fiscal 2024 third quarter and full year GAAP financial results. |
2. Net Income and Diluted Earnings Per Share Reconciliations | |||||||
The Company's press release contains financial information regarding adjusted earnings per share and adjusted net income (loss) attributable to JCI, which are non-GAAP performance measures. The adjusting items shown in the table below are excluded because these items are not considered to be directly related to the underlying operating performance of the Company. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding the ongoing operations and business trends of the Company. | |||||||

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the total number of potential dilutive shares due to stock options, unvested restricted stock and unvested performance share awards was 1.6 million. However, these items were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024, since to do so would decrease the loss per share.

4. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion | ||||||||
The Company's press release contains financial information regarding adjusted cash flows from operating activities, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion, which are non-GAAP performance measures. We also present below free cash flow conversion from the GAAP measure of net income attributable to JCI. | ||||||||
Effective January 1, 2023, the Company has excluded the impact of its financing entity, JC Capital, from the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. Management believes this provides a more true representation of the Company's operational ability to convert cash, without the contrary impact from financing activities. The impact on interim and annual periods prior to January 1, 2023 was not material. JC Capital cash flows that are excluded from the calculation of adjusted free cash flow primarily include activity associated with finance/notes receivables and inventory and/or capital expenditures related to lease arrangements. JC Capital net income that is excluded is primarily related to interest income on the finance/notes receivable and profit recognized on arrangements with sales-type lease components. | ||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company discontinued its receivables factoring program. Effective January 1, 2024, the Company has excluded the impact of the discontinuation of its accounts receivables factoring programs from the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. Management believes this provides a more accurate representation of the Company's current period operating cash flows compared to the prior year. The Company has also re-baselined the prior year adjusted free cash flow measure to present a more comparative measure without the impact of factoring.
| ||||||||
Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash provided (used) by operating activities, less capital expenditures, excluding the impacts from JC Capital and the discontinuation of the factoring programs. Free cash flow conversion from net income is defined as free cash flow divided by net income attributable to JCI. Adjusted free cash flow conversion is defined as adjusted free cash flow divided by adjusted net income attributable to JCI, excluding JC Capital. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding the strength of the Company and its ability to generate cash. These non-GAAP measures can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity. | ||||||||
