JOHNSON CONTROLS INTERNATIONAL PLC CORK, Ireland, Nov. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson Controls International plc (NYSE: JCI) today reported fiscal fourth quarter 2020 GAAP earnings per share ("EPS") from continuing operations, including special items, of $0.60. Excluding these items, adjusted EPS from continuing operations was $0.76, down 3% versus the prior year period (see attached footnotes for non-GAAP reconciliation).
Sales of nearly $6.0 billion decreased 5% compared to the prior year and declined 6% organically, reflecting the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
GAAP net income from continuing operations was $441 million, earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") was $583 million and EBIT margin was 9.8%. Adjusted net income from continuing operations was $563 million, adjusted EBIT was $770 million and adjusted EBIT margin was 12.9%, in line with prior year results despite the revenue decline.
"Looking back on what was an extraordinary year, I am incredibly proud of how our teams responded in a time of a global pandemic and the progress that we made as an organization. We remained focused on executing on our priorities to support our customers with the most innovative products and solutions, including our OpenBlue digital platform, contributing to a more sustainable world while maintaining the health and safety of our employees and their families, our customers and partners," said George Oliver, chairman and CEO. "In the fourth quarter, we performed very well across all of our end markets delivering revenue and EBIT above our prior guidance, with best in class decrementals. This is a result of continued strong execution on our cost-out initiatives, while maintaining strong reinvestment into our growth platforms."
Oliver continued, "from a strategic perspective, we executed on the initiatives we set out to accomplish at the beginning of the year, all of which enhance the long-term competitiveness of our business. I remain confident that Johnson Controls is well positioned to capitalize on the strong secular trends in buildings and infrastructure, providing innovative solutions enhancing air purification and health & safety, while delivering on our customers sustainability goals with industry leading energy management."

Orders in the quarter, excluding M&A and adjusted for foreign currency, decreased 9% year-over-year driven by lower demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Backlog at the end of the quarter of $5.9 billion was consistent with the prior year, excluding M&A and adjusted for foreign currency.
Adjusted segment EBITA was $345 million, down 3% versus the prior year. Adjusted segment EBITA margin of 15.4% expanded 50 basis points versus the prior year driven by significant cost mitigation actions and restructuring benefits, which more than offset the volume decline and negative mix.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company's press release contains financial information regarding adjusted earnings per share, which is a non-GAAP performance measure. The adjusting items include restructuring and impairment costs, transaction costs, integration costs, net mark-to-market adjustments, tax indemnification reserve release, environmental reserve, loss on extinguishment of debt, Power Solutions gain on sale (net of transaction and other costs), the impact of ceasing the depreciation / amortization expense for Power Solutions business as the business is held for sale, acquisition related compensation charges and discrete tax items. Financial information regarding organic sales, EBIT, EBIT margin, segment EBITA, adjusted segment EBITA, adjusted organic segment EBITA, adjusted segment EBITA margin, adjusted corporate expense, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, and adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations are also presented, which are non-GAAP performance measures. Adjusted segment EBITA excludes special items such as transaction costs, integration costs, environmental reserve and acquisition related compensation charges because these costs are not considered to be directly related to the underlying operating performance of its business units. Management believes that, when considered together with unadjusted amounts, these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results and business trends of the Company. Management may also use these metrics as guides in forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning processes and for compensation purposes. These metrics should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most comparable GAAP measure. For further information on the calculation of thee non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures, refer to the attached footnotes.

(1) The Company's press release and earnings presentation contains financial information regarding segment EBITA, adjusted segment EBITA and adjusted segment EBITA margins, which are non-GAAP performance measures. The Company's definition of adjusted segment EBITA excludes special items because these costs are not considered to be directly related to the underlying operating performance of its businesses. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in understanding the ongoing operations and business trends of the Company. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The Company has presented forward-looking statements regarding adjusted EPS, organic revenue decline, adjusted EBIT margin and adjusted free cash flow conversion, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts, expenses or income from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are 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, including but not limited to the high variability of the net mark-to-market adjustments and the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Our fiscal 2021 first quarter guidance for organic revenue decline also 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 all of the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's first quarter and full year 2021 GAAP financial results. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

4. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Reconciliation | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company's press release contains financial information regarding free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion, which are non-GAAP performance measures.
