Outlook for full year 2025*: Organic sales up 2 to 4%, adjusted earnings per share of $4.00 to $4.10 and adjusted free cash flow of approximately $1.6 billion


FARMINGTON, Conn., January 29, 2025 – Otis Worldwide Corporation (NYSE:OTIS) reported full year net sales of $14.3 billion with 1.4% organic growth. GAAP earnings per share (EPS) increased 20.1% to $4.07 and adjusted EPS increased 8.2% to $3.83.


"Otis finished 2024 with solid fourth quarter results including high single digit adjusted EPS growth, our highest cash flow since spin, and modernization orders up 18%," said Chair, CEO & President Judy Marks. "For the full year, we delivered organic sales growth and strong adjusted margin expansion for the fourth consecutive year. Our industry-leading maintenance portfolio grew 4.2% to approximately 2.4 million units, and our modernization backlog grew low teens. The quarter and the year show that our strategic New Equipment, Service and modernization flywheel is working with more growth in the higher margin elements of the business. As in 2023 and 2024, we enter 2025 with continued strong momentum.”





*Note: When we provide outlook for organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted EPS, adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures generally is not available without unreasonable effort. See “Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information.

Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Otis Worldwide Corporation (“Otis”) reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP information presented provides investors with additional useful information, but should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for the related GAAP measures. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures (referenced in this press release) to the corresponding amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP appears in the attached tables. These tables provide additional information as to the items and amounts that have been excluded from the adjusted measures. Below are our non-GAAP financial measures:

Non-GAAP measureDefinition
Organic salesRepresents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and other significant items of a non-recurring and/or nonoperational nature ("other significant items"). Management believes organic sales is a useful measure in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company’s ongoing operational performance.
Adjusted selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenseRepresents SG&A expense (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted operating profitRepresents income from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted net interest expense
Represents net interest expense (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the impacts of non-recurring acquisition related financing costs and related net interest expense pending the completion of a transaction and other significant items.
Adjusted noncontrolling interest in earnings
Represents noncontrolling interest in earnings (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items, including related tax effects.
5

Adjusted net income
Represents net income attributable to Otis Worldwide Corporation (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items, including related tax effects.
Adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”)
Represents diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the per share impact of restructuring and other significant items, including related tax effects.
Adjusted effective tax rate
Represents the effective tax rate (a GAAP measure) adjusted for other significant items and the tax impact of restructuring costs and other significant items.
Constant currencyGAAP financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates ("AFX"). We use the non-GAAP measure “at constant currency” or “CFX” to show changes in our financial results without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under U.S. GAAP, income statement results are translated in U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the period presented. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company’s ongoing operational performance.
Free cash flow
Represents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity and an additional basis for assessing Otis’ ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of common stock and distribution of earnings to shareholders. Free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash flows provided by operating activities, or any other measure of liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted free cash flowRepresents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures, adjusted to exclude certain items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Management believes adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity that provides investors additional information regarding the Company’s ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of common stock and distribution of earnings to shareholders. Adjusted free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash flows provided by operating activities, or any other measure of liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes that organic sales, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net interest expense, adjusted noncontrolling interest in earnings, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS and the adjusted effective tax rate are useful measures in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company’s ongoing operational performance.

When we provide our expectations for adjusted net sales, organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net interest expense, adjusted noncontrolling interest in earnings, adjusted net income, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted EPS, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected diluted EPS from continuing operations, operating profit, the effective tax rate, net sales and expected cash flow from operations) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

8

other things import/export, tariffs, climate change or other ESG related legal and regulatory changes) and other laws and regulations in the U.S., including in connection with the new administration's policies and priorities, and other countries in which Otis and its businesses operate; (14) the ability of Otis to retain and hire key personnel; (15) the scope, nature, impact or timing of acquisition and divestiture activity, the integration of acquired businesses into existing businesses and realization of synergies and opportunities for growth and innovation and incurrence of related costs; (16) the determination by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities that the distribution or certain related transactions should be treated as taxable transactions in connection with the separation (the “Separation”) of Otis and Carrier Global Corporation ("Carrier") from United Technologies Corporation (now known as RTX Corporation (“RTX”); and (17) our obligations and disputes that have or may hereafter arise under the agreements we entered into with RTX and Carrier in connection with the Separation. The above list of factors is not exhaustive or necessarily in order of importance. For additional information on identifying factors that may cause actual results to vary from those stated in forward-looking statements, see Otis’ registration statement on Form 10 and the reports of Otis on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with or furnished to the SEC from time to time.

Otis discloses segment operating profit as its measure of segment performance, reconciled to total Otis operating profit. Segment operating profit exclude certain expenses and income that are not allocated to segments (as described above as "Corporate and Unallocated").

Effective in the first quarter of 2024, the measure of segment performance used by Otis' Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") changed and, as a result, Otis' disclosed measure of segment performance (segment operating profit) was updated. The change to segment operating profit aligns with the update to how the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources for the Company's segments, and therefore is our measure of segment profitability.

As a result of the change, restructuring costs and other items not allocated to the operating segments are presented as part of Corporate and Unallocated. The financial information presented herein reflects the impact of the measure of segment performance change for all periods presented.
