NEUHAUSEN, Switzerland — July 26, 2013 — Tyco (NYSE: TYC) today reported $0.28 in GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations for the fiscal third quarter of 2013 and diluted EPS from continuing operations before special items of $0.50. Revenue in the quarter increased 1% versus the prior year to $2.7 billion. Organic revenue grew 1% in the quarter with 5% growth in products, 3% growth in service and a 4% decline in installation revenue.

*Normalized third quarter 2012 results reflect pro forma adjustments to corporate and interest expense to reflect the impact of the separation, and include dis-synergy costs associated with the separation of the Company’s North American security operations from ADT. See Non-GAAP reconciliations.

“Our results mark another strong quarter of operational performance, reflecting the continued strength of our recurring and service revenue base as well as sustained momentum in our Global Products business,” said Tyco Chief Executive Officer George Oliver. “We continue to execute our strategy of leading in technology to better serve our customers, increasing service revenue, and driving productivity, all of which contributed to our earnings growth this quarter.”

“Additionally, we announced the acquisition of Exacq Technologies, a developer of video management systems, to expand our security product offerings and strengthen our position in the market. We also continued to return capital to shareholders during the quarter, by repurchasing $100 million of shares.”

Organic revenue, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow, operating income, segment operating income, and diluted and normalized EPS from continuing operations before special items are non-GAAP financial measures and are described below. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures, see the attached tables. Additional schedules as well as third quarter review slides can be found at www.tyco.com on the Investor Relations portion of Tyco’s website.

SEGMENT RESULTS

The financial results presented in the tables below are in accordance with GAAP unless otherwise indicated. Effective in the fiscal second quarter of 2013, the company began reporting certain legacy environmental matters as special items. Operating income before special items in prior periods has been adjusted to reflect this change. All dollar amounts are pre-tax and stated in millions. All comparisons are to the fiscal third quarter of 2012 unless otherwise indicated.

North America Systems Installation & Services

Revenue of $966 million included service growth of 2% and an installation decline of 8%, primarily due to continued project selectivity in the commercial security business. In total, organic revenue declined 3% year-over-year. Backlog of $2.5 billion increased 1% on a quarter sequential basis, excluding the impact of foreign currency.

Operating income for the quarter was $88 million and the operating margin was 9.1%. Special items of $29 million consisted primarily of separation and restructuring charges. Operating income before special items was $117 million, and operating margin before special items was 12.1%, which was relatively consistent with the prior year. Normalizing for the dis-synergy costs associated with the separation of our North America commercial security business from ADT, the operating margin improved 80 basis points year-over-year due to a higher mix of service revenue, improved execution in installation and productivity benefits.

Rest of World Systems Installation & Services

Revenue of $1.1 billion increased 2% in the quarter. Service revenue increased 4% and installation revenue declined 1% for total organic growth of 2%. Acquisitions contributed 2 percentage points to revenue growth, which was mostly offset by the negative impact of foreign currency. Record backlog of $2.6 billion increased 3% on a quarter sequential basis, excluding the impact of foreign currency.

Operating income for the quarter was $104 million and the operating margin was 9.4%. Special items of $35 million consisted primarily of restructuring charges. Operating income before special items was $139 million, and the operating margin improved 30 basis points to 12.5%. The year-over-year improvement in margin was driven by a higher mix of service revenue and productivity benefits.

Global Products

Revenue of $600 million increased 7% in the quarter, with organic revenue growth of 5%. Revenue increased across all three product platforms.

Operating income for the quarter was $114 million and the operating margin was 19.0%.  Special items in the quarter of $5 million consisted of restructuring charges. Operating income before special items was $119 million and the operating margin was 19.8%. The year-over-year decline in operating margin was attributable to a higher mix of high-hazard, high-performance products for the Mining and Oil & Gas end markets in the prior year.

OTHER ITEMS

·                  Cash from operating activities was $265 million and free cash flow was $167 million, which included a cash outflow of $106 million related to special items. Adjusted free cash flow for the quarter was $273 million. The Company completed the quarter with $455 million in cash and cash equivalents.

·                  Corporate expense before special items was $62 million for the quarter, and $117 million on a GAAP basis.

·                  The tax rate before special items was 18.4% for the quarter.

·                  Company repurchased 3.1 million shares for $100 million under the existing $750 million share repurchase authority, of which $500 million remains.

·                  During the quarter, the Company signed a definitive agreement to purchase Exacq Technologies, a developer of open architecture Video Management Systems (VMS) for security and surveillance applications. The business is expected to generate revenues in fiscal 2014 of approximately $75 million. The acquisition, which is expected to close within the next few days, is subject to customary closing conditions.

·                  In addition, the Company closed the previously-announced acquisition of National Fire Solutions Group (NFS), a leading national provider of fire protection services in Australia. This acquisition is expected to contribute approximately $65 million in revenue in fiscal 2014.

·                  During the quarter, the Company completed the sale of its North America guarding business, which generated revenue of $75 million in fiscal 2012.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Organic revenue, free cash flow (outflow) (FCF), and income from continuing operations, earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations, operating income and segment operating income, and normalized EPS, in each case “before special items,” are non-GAAP measures and should not be considered replacements for GAAP results.

Organic revenue is a useful measure used by the company to measure the underlying results and trends in the business. The difference between reported net revenue (the most comparable GAAP measure) and organic revenue (the non-GAAP measure) consists of the impact from foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures, and other changes that either do not reflect the underlying results and trends of the company’s businesses or are not completely under management’s control. There are limitations associated with organic revenue, such as the fact that, as presented herein, the metric may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These limitations are best addressed by using organic revenue in combination with GAAP numbers. Organic revenue may be used as a component in the company’s incentive compensation plans.

FCF is a useful measure of the company’s cash that permits management and investors to gain insight into the number that management employs to measure cash that is free from any significant existing obligation and is available to service debt and make investments. The difference between Cash Flows from Operating Activities (the most comparable GAAP measure) and FCF (the non-GAAP measure) consists mainly of significant cash flows that the company believes are useful to identify. It, or a measure that is based on it, may be used as a component in the company’s incentive compensation plans. The difference reflects the impact from:

·                  net capital expenditures,

·                  dealer generated accounts and bulk accounts purchased,

·                  cash paid for purchase accounting and holdback liabilities, and

·                  voluntary pension contributions.

Capital expenditures and dealer generated and bulk accounts purchased are subtracted because they represent long-term investments that are required for normal business activities. Cash paid for purchase accounting and holdback liabilities is subtracted because these cash outflows are not available for general corporate uses. Voluntary pension contributions are added because this activity is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity. In addition, from time to time the company may present adjusted free cash flow, which is free cash flow, adjusted to exclude the cash impact of the special items highlighted below. This number provides information to investors regarding the cash impact of certain items management believes are useful to identify, as described below.

The limitation associated with using these cash flow metrics is that they adjust for cash items that are ultimately within management’s and the Board of Directors’ discretion to direct and therefore may imply that there is less or more cash that is available for the company’s programs than the most comparable GAAP measure. Furthermore, these non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These limitations are best addressed by using FCF in combination with the GAAP cash flow numbers.

The company has presented its income and EPS from continuing operations, operating income and segment operating income before special items. Special items include charges and gains related to divestitures, acquisitions, restructurings and similar actions, impairments, certain changes to accounting methodologies, legacy legal, environmental and tax charges and other income or charges that may mask the underlying operating results and/or business trends of the company or business segment, as applicable. The company utilizes these measures to assess overall operating performance and segment level core operating performance, as well as to provide insight to management in evaluating overall and segment operating plan execution and underlying market conditions. The Company also presents its effective tax rate as adjusted for special items for consistency, and presents corporate expense excluding special items. One or more of these measures may be used as components in the company’s incentive compensation plans. These measures are useful for investors because they may permit more meaningful comparisons of the company’s underlying operating results and business trends between periods. The difference between income and EPS from continuing operations before special items and income and EPS from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP measures) consists of the impact of the special items noted above on the applicable GAAP measure. The limitation of these measures is that they exclude the impact (which may be material) of items that increase or decrease the company’s reported GAAP metrics, and these non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These limitations are best addressed by using the non-GAAP measures in combination with the most comparable GAAP measures in order to better understand the amounts, character and impact of any increase or decrease on reported results.

The company provides general corporate services to its segments and those costs are reported in the “Corporate and Other” segment. This segment’s operating income (loss) is presented as “Corporate Expense.” Segment Operating Income represents Tyco’s operating income excluding the Corporate and Other segment, and reflects the results of Tyco’s three operating segments. Segment Operating Income before special items reflects GAAP operating income adjusted for the special items noted in the paragraph above.

In order to provide more meaningful comparison of fiscal 2013 results to fiscal 2012 results, normalized EPS before special items is presented. Normalized EPS adjusts fiscal 2012 GAAP results by replacing the GAAP interest and corporate expenses reported for fiscal 2012 (on a pre-separation basis) with the interest and corporate expenses estimated to be incurred in fiscal 2013 (on a post-separation basis), and adding estimated

dis-synergy costs related to the separation of the Company’s North American security business to fiscal 2012 results. Normalized EPS before special items further adjusts normalized EPS for the special items above.
