The following Management Discussion and Analysis is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition ofHoneywell International Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (Honeywell or the Company) for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 . The financial information as ofJune 30, 2022 , should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 , contained in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 3 Acquisitions and Divestitures of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of acquisition and divestiture activity during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 .
BUSINESS UPDATE
We continue to monitor several macroeconomic and geopolitical trends, that have impacted our business, including changing conditions from the COVID-19 pandemic, the on-goingRussia -Ukraine conflict, inflationary cost pressures, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages. InJuly 2022 , we will realign certain business units within the Safety and Productivity Solutions reportable business segment. This realignment will not impact the four reportable business segments identified by the Company. We intend to report financial performance based on this realignment effective with the reporting of third quarter 2022 results. See Note 18 Subsequent Events of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
COVID-19 UPDATE
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our business operations, and our customers' and suppliers' ability to operate at normal levels. Disruptions in normal operating levels continue to create supply chain disruptions and inflationary cost pressures within our end-markets. We anticipate supply chain constraints, and the inflationary environment will continue during 2022. As such, we implemented short-term and long-term strategies to reduce the impact of current and future effects. During the first half of 2022, governments around the world removed many restrictions on businesses and the general public. We continue to operate our manufacturing sites at normal production levels. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we have returned nearly all of our non-manufacturing employees to the workplace.
We continue to actively monitor regional COVID-19 outbreaks, and the related government restrictions and lockdown activities in the areas we operate. To date, the impacts of these actions have not been material.
See the section titled Review of Business Segments for additional information on the impacts of COVID-19, inflationary cost pressures, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages, to our businesses.
In response to the Russian invasion ofUkraine , inMarch 2022 , we suspended substantially all of our sales, distribution, and service activities inRussia andBelarus (the Suspension), and inJune 2022 , we decided to wind down our existing businesses and operations inRussia (the Wind down). Through the Wind down of our businesses and operations, we will seek to collect outstanding accounts receivables, liquidate our inventory and fixed assets, negotiate and settle existing contractual obligations, trade payables and guarantees, and terminate and payout severance to impacted employees. The Suspension and Wind down impacts all of our reportable business segments, with the most significant impact to our Performance Materials and Technologies segment. In early 2022, we created aUkraine Relief Fund , allowing employees to make donations to support organizations that are providing direct assistance to Ukrainians and those that are assisting them in the midst of this humanitarian crisis.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we recognized$126 million and$309 million , respectively, of charges and the accrual of reserves due to the initial Suspension and Wind down of our businesses and operations. The charges and accrual of reserves during the second quarter of 2022 were primarily related to foreign exchange revaluation on an intercompany loan with a Russian affiliate, inventory reserves, the write-down of other assets, impairment of property, plant and equipment, employee severance, and a tax valuation allowance. The respective impacts to revenues, net income, net assets, cash flow from operations, or our global workforce are not material for the periods recognized. For the year endedDecember 31, 2021 , revenues from sales inRussia represented approximately 1% of our global revenues, while assets inRussia represented less than 1% of our total assets. Based on available information to date, the Company's estimate of potential future losses or other contingencies related to the Suspension and Wind down activities, including any guarantee payments or any litigation costs or as otherwise related to our Wind down inRussia , could adversely affect the Company's consolidated results of operations in the periods recognized but would not be material with respect to the Company's consolidated financial position. As the conflict continues to evolve, existing conditions may worsen or other impacts that are unknown at this time may arise that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. TheRussia -Ukraine conflict caused certain commodity prices to spike, adding to the inflationary pressures in the global economy. We considered the impacts of the conflict on oil and gas prices in our short-term and long-term strategies discussed in the above. Additionally, we continue to assess the current and future impacts of the conflict on already constrained supply chains.
See Item 1A. Risk Factors for additional information on potential risks to our business.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
(Dollars in tables in millions)
We continue to manage our businesses to maximize operating cash flows as the primary source of liquidity. Each of our businesses is focused on increasing operating cash flows through revenue growth, margin expansion, and improved working capital turnover. Additional sources of liquidity include committed credit lines, short-term debt from the commercial paper market, long-term borrowings, access to the public debt and equity markets,U.S. cash balances, and the ability to access non-U.S. cash balances.
CASH
We monitor the third-party depository institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents on a daily basis. Our emphasis is primarily safety of principal and secondarily maximizing yield of those funds. We diversify our cash and cash equivalents among counterparties to minimize exposure to any one of these entities.

CREDIT RATINGS
Our ability to access the global debt capital markets and the related cost of these borrowings is affected by the strength of our credit rating and market conditions. Our credit ratings are periodically reviewed by the major independent debt-rating agencies. As ofJune 30, 2022 , S&P Global Inc. (S&P),Fitch Ratings Inc. (Fitch), and Moody's Investor Service (Moody's) have ratings on our debt set forth in the table below: S&P Fitch Moody's Outlook Stable Stable Stable Short-term A-1 F1 P1 Long-term A A A2 CASH FLOW SUMMARY
Our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities, as reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, are summarized as follows:
Six Months

11,427
Cash related to operating activities decreased due to an unfavorable impact to working capital and a decrease in net income, partially offset by an increase in noncash adjustments, primarily driven by an increase in repositioning and other charges, and a gain from the 2021 sale of the retail footwear business. Cash related to investing activities increased by$1,657 million primarily due to a$1,149 million decrease in cash paid for acquisitions, and$360 million increase in cash receipts from settlements of derivative contracts, partially offset by$242 million net increase in investments, and$190 million in proceeds from the 2021 sale of the retail footwear business. Cash related to financing activities increased by$45 million primarily due to$746 million decrease in payments of long-term debt, partially offset by$588 million increase in repurchases of common stock and$55 million increase in cash dividends paid.
CASH REQUIREMENTS AND ASSESSMENT OF CURRENT LIQUIDITY
In addition to our normal operating cash requirements, our principal future cash requirements will be to fund capital expenditures, share repurchases, dividends, strategic acquisitions and debt repayments. OnFebruary 12, 2021 , the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to a total of$10 billion of Honeywell common stock, which included amounts remaining under, and replaced, the previously approved share repurchase program. During the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , the Company repurchased common stock of$2,437 million . Refer to the section titled Liquidity and Capital Resources of our 2021 Form 10-K for a discussion of our expected capital expenditures, share repurchases, and dividends for 2022.
We continue to identify opportunities to improve our liquidity and working capital efficiency, which includes the extension of payment terms with our suppliers and sales of our trade receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions without recourse. The impact of these programs is not material to our overall liquidity.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
We continue to assess the relative strength of each business in our portfolio as to strategic fit, market position, profit, and cash flow contribution in order to identify target investment and acquisition opportunities in order to upgrade our combined portfolio. We identify acquisition candidates that will further our strategic plan and strengthen our existing core businesses. We also identify businesses that do not fit into our long-term strategic plan based on their market position, relative profitability, or growth potential. These businesses are considered for potential divestiture, restructuring, or other repositioning actions, subject to regulatory constraints. Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating cash needs. Our available cash, committed credit lines and access to the public debt and equity markets provide additional sources of short-term and long-term liquidity to fund current operations, debt maturities, and future investment opportunities.
See Note 8 Long-term Debt and Credit Agreements of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of items impacting our liquidity.
OTHER MATTERS LITIGATION We are subject to a number of lawsuits, investigations, and claims (some of which involve substantial amounts) arising out of the conduct of our business. See Note 14 Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of environmental, asbestos and other litigation matters.
