Dear Fellow Motorola Solutions Shareholder:

At Motorola Solutions, we believe that safety and security are foundational to enable communities and businesses to thrive. Our technologies strengthen the intersection between public safety and enterprise security, helping to ensure the safety of millions of people around the world - from classrooms to hospitals, airports to stadiums, in the office and in our communities.

And as we see the increasing and complex nature of threats around the world, the work we do and the technologies we create are more critical than ever. We remain committed to making strategic investments, inspiring innovation and advancing the technologies that meet our customers' unique challenges, ultimately helping to create a safer environment for all.

Most importantly, we know that it's not only what we do, but how we do it that makes a difference to our customers and the communities we serve. Our values unite our global workforce of approximately 20,000 strong - we are inclusive, innovative, passionate, driven, accountable and partners. And we remain steadfast in our intent to embed diversity, equity and inclusion ("DEI") across our company, from the design of our technologies to the suppliers we work with and the partnerships we establish to help recruit a diverse talent pipeline.

I'm particularly proud of our efforts throughout 2022, focused on:

  • Continuing to prioritize the safety and welfare of our people and those who we serve.

  • Investing $779 million in research and development, delivering next-generation technologies while growing our portfolio of intellectual property, which stands at approximately 6,530 granted patents with approximately 870 patents pending.

  • Diversifying the expertise of our board of directors with the addition of Dr. Ayanna Howard, adding deep expertise in artificial intelligence, robotics and human-computer interaction.

  • Incorporating additional DEI practices into our hiring to help ensure our global workforce reflects a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences.

  • Giving back to our communities with employees volunteering more than 75,000 hours and the majority of the Motorola Solutions Foundation's $9.5 million in strategic grants directly benefiting people of color, including first responders, students and teachers.

  • Reaffirming our commitment to addressing the effects of climate change and publishing our inaugural Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures report.

  • Maintaining our disciplined and strategic approach to capital allocation, with a focus on investing for the long term and delivering superior value to shareholders, including $1.2 billion across seven acquisitions, $836 million in share repurchases and $530 million paid in dividends.

In this past year, we achieved record earnings per share, record sales in both segments and all three technologies, and ended the year with record backlog of $14.3 billion, up 6% versus a year ago. Notably, capping the year with our acquisition of Rave Mobile Safety, our total addressable market has increased to $60 billion.

The momentum of our business is strong. Our accomplishments and performance in 2022 demonstrate the value Motorola Solutions can create for its shareholders, grounded in our people-first culture and commitment to operate responsibly, while continuing to invest in the technologies that advance the future of public safety and enterprise security.

Thank you for your continued support.
