“Honeywell had a terrific 2011,” said Honeywell Chairman and CEO Dave Cote. “We executed across the portfolio with record organic sales growth and segment margins. Our 2011 performance reflects the operational and financial disciplines that underpin the transformation that has taken place at the company over the last 10 years. We deployed the Honeywell 5 Initiatives – Growth, Productivity, Cash, People, and our Enablers, and created a common One Honeywell culture committed to continuous improvement. As a result, we built a better set of businesses with Great Positions in Good Industries, a terrific performance track record, a great leadership team with a truly global focus, a very full pipeline of new products and technologies, and our key process initiatives that are gaining momentum. We’ve come a long way, and we feel even better about our future.”

“While we expect a more challenging macro environment ahead in 2012, primarily driven by softness in Europe impacting the short-cycle businesses, we’re confident that Honeywell is well positioned to continue to outperform,” continued Cote. “Our long-cycle businesses are accelerating, with Commercial Aerospace OE, UOP, Building Solutions & Distribution, and Process Solutions all having substantial backlog, in total just under $16 billion. While we expect growth to moderate in the first half of 2012, we’re confident that we can drive strong sales conversion leading to higher segment margins over the course of the year. The investments we’ve made, coupled with our execution track record and disciplined playbook, will be key to our continued outperformance in 2012 and beyond.”

Fourth Quarter Segment Highlights

Aerospace

· Sales were up 8% compared with the fourth quarter of 2010, primarily due to 20% growth in Commercial original equipment and aftermarket volumes, partially offset by lower military sales and government services.

· Segment profit was up 10% and segment margin increased 40 bps to 18.8%, primarily due to strong commercial aftermarket volume and productivity benefits net of inflation, partially offset by higher research and development costs, and the dilution associated with the EMS acquisition.

· Honeywell secured more than $100 million in safety product wins including contracts with Lufthansa Airlines to introduce Intuvue Radar and SmartLanding airport and runway awareness technology on its full fleet of A320 aircraft. Air China will introduce Honeywell’s Intuvue Radar on its B777-300ER in addition to Satellite Communication System, Traffic Collision Avoidance System, and Voice and Data recorders. Additionally, Emirates Airlines will forward fit and retrofit Honeywell Satellite Communication Systems on its fleet of 777, A380, and A340 aircraft.

· Honeywell was awarded more than $150 million in Global Aftermarket support contracts in the quarter. These include a Maintenance Cost Agreement with Flydubai for the carrier’s auxiliary power units (APUs) installed on its fleet of Boeing 737-800 passenger aircraft, aftermarket support with Air France to provide multiple avionics components across several aircraft platforms, and wheels and brakes support with Ethiopian Airlines and Air China.

· Honeywell has delivered the latest version of its industry leading HTF7000 family of jet engines, the HTF7500E, to Embraer for flight testing on Embraer’s family of Legacy 450 and 500 series jets. The HTF7500E is Honeywell’s newest fuel efficient engine that encompasses SABER (Single Annular Combustor for Emissions Reduction) combustor technology reducing jet engine emissions by 25%.

Automation and Control Solutions

· Sales were up 4%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2010, driven by organic growth across the portfolio. The favorable impact of net acquisitions offset negative foreign currency translation in the quarter. ACS continues to benefit from new product introductions, emerging region expansion, and favorable macro trends such as safety, security, and energy efficiency.

· Segment profit was up 14% and segment margins increased 130 bps to 14.4% driven by higher volumes, commercial excellence, and productivity benefits net of inflation, and the absence of prior year dilution from acquisitions.

· Process Solutions was awarded an $88.6 million contract by the city of Los Angeles to completely overhaul and modernize the technology controlling the city’s wastewater treatment system. The project will allow the city's Bureau of Sanitation to replace the current control systems, some of which have been in place for two decades and are outdated, with a city- and network-wide integrated system, simplifying operations and reducing environmental risks from the aging infrastructure.

· Life Safety acquired King’s Safetywear, a leading international provider of branded safety footwear and other personal protective equipment (PPE). Headquartered in Singapore, King’s will be integrated into the global Safety Products business and further broadens Honeywell’s head-to-toe PPE portfolio, offering a range of respected protective footwear brands to key markets including Southeast Asia, Australia, and other regions. Life Safety also acquired Fire Sentry Corporation, a privately-held manufacturer of innovative fire detection and control products for a broad range of industrial markets. Fire Sentry’s product portfolio consists of fast-responding electro-optical flame detectors, portable test lamps, and dedicated control panels that are used by customers in industrial settings such as petrochemical, semiconductor, and other plants.

· Building Solutions announced a smart grid project that will help Scottish and Southern Energy Power Distribution connect up to 30 commercial and industrial buildings in the Thames Valley area west of London, which will help alleviate the potential for future transmission and distribution bottlenecks as the peak demand for energy grows. The project will help to create a more robust, agile grid without the public disruption or expense of major infrastructure upgrades. Honeywell will install automated demand response (Auto DR) technology in the selected facilities.

Performance Materials and Technologies

· Sales were up 24% compared with the fourth quarter of 2010, resulting from strong UOP project and catalyst sales, the phenol plant acquisition, and favorable pricing and new product applications in Advanced Materials.

· Segment profit was up 30% and segment margins increased 80 bps to 15.6% due to higher project sales and catalyst growth, favorable price over raws spreads, and continued productivity benefits, partially offset by inflation and the unfavorable margin impact from the phenol plant acquisition.

· UOP announced that its adsorbent ion exchange products are successfully being used by Toshiba Corp. and Shaw Global Services for the cleanup of radiation-contaminated water at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan. The Simplified Active Water Retrieve and Recovery System (SARRY) is utilizing UOP IONSIV™ Ion Exchangers to remove and reduce radioactive materials in the contaminated wastewater caused by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in 2011.

· Resins and Chemicals signed an agreement with the J.R. Simplot Company, one of the world’s largest privately-held food and agribusiness companies, to build a facility that will produce Honeywell’s Sulf-N® 26, a highly-effective fertilizer with all the agronomic benefits of traditional nitrate-based fertilizers but with significantly lower explosive potential.

· UOP announced that its Uniflex™ process technology, designed to help refiners get more high-value product from each barrel of crude oil, has been selected by National Refinery Limited to maximize diesel and lubricant production in Pakistan. Uniflex™ technology was developed to help refiners processing the bottom of the barrel (the heaviest portions of a barrel of crude also known as vacuum residue) into higher-value transportation fuels. This technology can deliver 90% conversion of vacuum residue to transportation fuels.

Transportation Systems

· Sales were up 10% compared with the fourth quarter of 2010, due to higher light vehicle turbo volumes overall, new launches, and higher diesel penetration, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.

· Segment profit was up 14% and segment margins increased 40 bps to 12.4%, primarily driven by higher volumes and increased productivity benefits, partially offset by inflation.

· Honeywell Turbo Technologies launched approximately 25 new turbo applications in the fourth quarter on gasoline and diesel powertrains for both passenger and commercial vehicle applications around the world bringing the 2011 total to nearly 100 applications and reflecting a record number of deliveries in 2011 surpassing the previous record set in pre-recession 2007.

· As global manufacturers continue to turn to engine downsizing and turbocharging to meet increasing regulatory requirements and satisfy customers, Honeywell Turbo Technologies was awarded more than $500 million in new platform wins in Q4 bringing its year-to-date total to nearly $2.8 billion in revenue realized throughout the life of the future programs won. The wins in Q4 reflect new business from global customers including Audi, Nissan, Fiat, Chrysler, and Caterpillar.

Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow, Prior to U.S. Pension Cash Contributions (Unaudited)

(Dollars in millions)


	Three Months Ended						Twelve Months Ended

Free cash flow, prior to U.S. pension cash contributions	$	1,395		$	1,345		$	3,685		$	4,152

We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, less cash expenditures for property, plant and equipment.

We believe that this metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions, and to pay dividends, repurchase stock, or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. This metric can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.
