Segment EBITA margin of 19.5% increased 10 basis points versus the prior year as productivity gains and operational efficiency were partially offset by transformation costs. Adjusted segment EBITA in Q4 2025 excludes transformation costs.

Segment EBITA margin of 17.8% declined 190 basis points versus the prior year as lower volumes in China created pressure on factory absorption. Corporate Fiscal Q4 (in millions) 2025 2024 Change Corporate Expense GAAP $ 269 $ 131 105 % Adjusted (non-GAAP) 124 114 9 % Adjusted Corporate expense in Q4 2025 excludes certain transaction/separation costs, transformation costs, and accelerated depreciation of ERP assets.

In August, the Company received an initial delivery of 43.1 million shares of common stock. The accelerated repurchase transactions are expected to terminate in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. The Company completed the sale of its Residential and Light Commercial HVAC business (the "R&LC Business"), which included the North America Ducted businesses and the global Residential joint venture with Hitachi Global Life Solutions, Inc. ("Hitachi"), of which Johnson Controls owned 60% and Hitachi owned 40%, to Bosch Group for $8.3 billion in cash with the Company's portion of the aggregate consideration being approximately $6.9 billion. GUIDANCE The following forward-looking statements 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. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to its 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 2026 first quarter and full year GAAP financial results. The Company initiated fiscal 2026 first quarter continuing operations guidance: Organic sales growth of ~3% Operating leverage of ~55%* Adjusted EPS of ~$0.83 The Company initiated fiscal 2026 full year continuing operations guidance: Organic sales growth of mid-single digits Operating leverage of ~50%* Adjusted EPS of ~$4.55 Adjusted free cash flow conversion of ~100% *Operating leverage is defined as the ratio of the change in adjusted EBIT for the current period less the prior period, divided by the change in net revenues for the current period less the prior period.

("Hitachi"), of which Johnson Controls owned 60% and Hitachi owned 40%.

Non-GAAP Measures The Company reports various non-GAAP measures in this earnings release and the related earnings presentation. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most comparable GAAP measures. Refer to the following footnotes for further information on the calculations of the non-GAAP measures and reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures. Organic sales Organic sales growth excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency. Management believes organic sales growth is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period sales results and trends. Cash flow Management believes free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow 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 the Company's ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on its liquidity. Management also believes adjusted free cash flows are useful to investors in understanding period-over-period cash flows, cash trends and ongoing cash flows of the Company. Adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion are non-GAAP measures which exclude the impacts of the following: JC Capital cash flows primarily include activity associated with finance/notes receivables and inventory and/or capital expenditures related to lease arrangements. JC Capital net income is primarily related to interest income on the finance/notes receivable and profit recognized on arrangements with sales-type lease components. The impact of the accounts receivables factoring program which was discontinued in March 2024. Cash payments related to the water systems AFFF settlement and cash receipts for AFFF-related insurance recoveries. Prepayment of royalty fees associated with certain IP licensed to Bosch in conjunction with the sale of our R&LC business. Discrete tax payments are non-recurring tax settlements for certain non-US jurisdictions Adjusted financial measures Adjusted financial measures are non-GAAP measures that are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the excluded amounts is a matter of management judgment and depends upon the nature and variability of the underlying expense or income amounts and other factors. As detailed in the tables included in footnotes four through seven, the following items were excluded from certain financial measures: Net mark-to-market adjustments are the result of adjusting restricted asbestos investments and pension and postretirement plan assets to their current market value. These adjustments may have a favorable or unfavorable impact on results. Restructuring and impairment costs, net of NCI represents restructuring costs attributable to Johnson Controls including costs associated with exit plans or other restructuring plans that will have a more significant impact on the underlying cost structure of the organization. Impairment costs primarily relate to write-downs of goodwill, intangible assets and assets held for sale to their fair value. Water systems AFFF settlement and insurance recoveries include amounts related to a settlement with a nationwide class of public water systems concerning the use of AFFF manufactured and sold by a subsidiary of the Company, and AFFF-related insurance recoveries. Transaction/separation costs include costs associated with significant mergers and acquisitions. Transformation costs represent incremental expenses incurred in association with strategic growth initiatives and cost saving opportunities in order to realize the benefits of portfolio simplification and the Company's lifecycle solutions strategy. ERP asset - accelerated depreciation represents a change in ERP strategy within the EMEA segment, which led to certain assets being abandoned and the useful lives reduced. Earn-out adjustments relate to earn-out liabilities associated with certain significant acquisitions and may have a favorable or unfavorable impact on results. Cyber incident costs primarily represent expenses, net of insurance recoveries, associated with the response to, and remediation of, a cybersecurity incident which occurred in September 2023. Product quality costs are costs related to a product quality issue that is unusual due to the magnitude of the expected cost to remediate in comparison to typical product quality issues experienced by the Company. Loss on divestiture relates to the sale of the ADTi business. EMEA joint venture loss relates to certain non-recurring losses associated with the equity method accounting of a joint venture company. Discrete tax items, net includes the net impact of discrete tax items within the period, including the following types of items: changes in estimates associated with valuation allowances, changes in estimates associated with reserves for uncertain tax positions, withholding taxes recorded upon changes in indefinite re-investment assertions for businesses to be disposed of, impacts from statutory rate changes, and the recording of significant tax credits. Related tax impact includes the tax impact of the various excluded items. Management believes the exclusion of these items is useful to investors due to the unusual nature and/or magnitude of the amounts. When considered together with unadjusted amounts, adjusted financial measures are useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results, business trends and ongoing operations of the Company. Management may also use these metrics as guides in forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning processes and for compensation purposes. Operating leverage Operating leverage is defined as the ratio of the change in adjusted EBIT for the current period less the prior period, divided by the change in net revenues for the current period less the prior period. Management believes operating leverage is a useful metric to reflect enterprise value creation, capturing the impact of scale and cost discipline across the organization.
