Honeywell International Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share amounts)
NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position of Honeywell International Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries at September 30, 2009 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 should not necessarily be taken as indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the entire year.
We report our quarterly financial information using a calendar convention; that is, the first, second and third quarters are consistently reported as ending on March 31, June 30 and September 30, respectively. It has been our practice to establish actual quarterly closing dates using a predetermined fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on a Saturday in order to minimize the potentially disruptive effects of quarterly closing on our business processes. The effects of this practice are generally not significant to reported results for any quarter and only exist within a reporting year. In the event that differences in actual closing dates are material to year-over-year comparisons of quarterly or year-to-date results, we provide appropriate disclosures. Our actual closing dates for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were October 3, 2009 and September 27, 2008, respectively.
The financial information as of September 30, 2009 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 contained in our Form 10-K filed on February 13, 2009.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
NOTE 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance on fair value measurements. This guidance establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to U.S. GAAP requiring use of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. It is effective for financial assets and financial liabilities for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Issued in February 2008, a FASB staff position removed leasing transactions from the scope of the new fair value guidance. Also in February 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance deferring the effective date of the fair value guidance for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.
In October 2008, the FASB issued a staff position that clarified the application of the fair value guidance in an inactive market. It demonstrated how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is inactive. The staff position was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
6
In April 2009, the FASB issued a staff position providing additional guidance on factors to consider in estimating fair value when there has been a significant decrease in market activity for a financial asset. The guidance was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In September 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance on measuring the fair value of liabilities effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. Implementation will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In September 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance on measuring fair value of certain alternative investments effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) ending after December 15, 2009. Implementation will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
The implementation of the fair value guidance for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, effective January 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. See Note 11 for additional fair value information and disclosure for financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities.
In December 2007, the FASB issued new guidance on business combinations. The new standard provides revised guidance on how acquirors recognize and measure the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination. The new standard also expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and financial effects of business combinations. The standard is effective, on a prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Upon adoption, this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. However, if the Company enters into any business combinations after the adoption of the new guidance on business combinations, a transaction may significantly impact the Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations as compared to the Companys recent acquisitions, accounted for under prior GAAP requirements, due to the changes described above.
In April 2009, the FASB issued a staff position amending and clarifying the new business combination standard to address application issues associated with initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. The staff position is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued new guidance on noncontrolling interests which establishes requirements for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the Company (sometimes called minority interests) be clearly identified, presented, and disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parents equity. All changes in the parents ownership interests are required to be accounted for consistently as equity transactions and any noncontrolling equity investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries must be measured initially at fair value. The new guidance is effective, on a prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. However, presentation and disclosure requirements must be retrospectively applied to comparative financial statements. Upon adoption of the new guidance on noncontrolling interest the Company reclassified $82 million of noncontrolling
7
interest from other liabilities to noncontrolling interest as a separate component of shareholders equity in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 and $4 million and $14 million of noncontrolling interest expense to net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in our statement of operations for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. See Note 12, Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss), for additional disclosures regarding noncontrolling interest components of other comprehensive income. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. The new guidance expands existing quarterly disclosure requirements about an entitys derivative instruments and hedging activities. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. All derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities and measured at fair value. For derivatives designated as hedges of the fair value of assets or liabilities, the changes in fair values of both the derivatives and the hedged items are recorded in current earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the derivatives are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. Cash flows of such derivative financial instruments are classified consistent with the underlying hedged item. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. See Note 11 for additional derivative and hedging information and disclosures.
In November 2008, the FASB ratified an issue providing guidance for accounting for defensive intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition in accordance with the new business combination and fair value standards, including the estimated useful life that should be assigned to such assets. The new guidance is effective for intangible assets acquired on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2008, the FASB issued a staff position providing guidance on employers disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. The guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued a staff position which changes the method for determining whether an other-than-temporary impairment exists for debt securities and the amount of the impairment to be recorded in earnings. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued a staff position requiring fair value disclosures in both interim as well as annual financial statements in order to provide more timely information about the effects of current market conditions on financial instruments. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance on subsequent events. The standard provides guidance on managements assessment of subsequent events and incorporates this guidance into accounting literature. The standard is effective prospectively for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The Company has evaluated subsequent events
8
through October 23, 2009, the date of issuance of our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for transfers of financial assets. The guidance requires additional disclosures for transfers of financial assets and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest entities. The guidance affects the overall consolidation analysis and requires enhanced disclosures on involvement with variable interest entities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) was issued. The Codification is the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The Codification is effective for financials statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB issued amendments to the accounting and disclosure for revenue recognition. These amendments, effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (early adoption is permitted), modify the criteria for recognizing revenue in multiple element arrangements and the scope of what constitutes a non-software deliverable. The Company is currently assessing the impact on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Note 3. Acquisitions
In August 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of the RMG Group (RMG Regel + Messtechnik GmbH), a natural gas measuring and control products, services and integrated solutions company, for a purchase price of approximately $416 million, net of cash acquired. The purchase price for the acquisition was allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The Company has assigned $174 million to identifiable intangible assets, predominantly customer relationships, existing technology and trademarks. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated lives using straight-line and accelerated amortization methods. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of net assets acquired (approximating $219 million), was recorded as goodwill. This goodwill is non-deductible for tax purposes. This acquisition was accounted for by the acquisition method, and, accordingly, results of operations are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The results from the acquisition date through September 30, 2009 are included in the Automation and Control Solutions segment and were not material to the consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2009, the purchase accounting for the RMG Group is still subject to adjustment primarily for useful lives of intangible assets, amounts allocated to intangible assets and goodwill, for certain pre-acquisition contingencies, and for settlement of post closing purchase price adjustments.

In the third quarter of 2009, we recognized repositioning charges totaling $41 million primarily for severance costs related to workforce reductions of 816 manufacturing and administrative positions in our Automation and Control Solutions, Transportation Systems and Specialty Materials segments. The workforce reductions primarily relate to the planned downsizing or shutdown of certain manufacturing facilities and adverse market conditions currently being experienced by many of our businesses.
In the third quarter of 2008, we recognized repositioning charges totaling $225 million including severance costs of $171 million related to workforce reductions of 3,166 manufacturing and administrative positions principally in our Automation and Control Solutions, Aerospace and Transportation Systems segments. The workforce reductions primarily relate to the planned downsizing or shutdown of
10
certain manufacturing facilities in our Automation and Control Solutions and Aerospace segments and the rationalization of non-manufacturing infrastructure. The repositioning charge also included asset impairments of $46 million principally related to manufacturing plant and equipment in facilities scheduled to close or be downsized and information technology equipment in our Corporate segment.
In the first nine months of 2009, we recognized repositioning charges totaling $190 million primarily for severance costs related to workforce reductions of 3,936 manufacturing and administrative positions across all of our segments. The workforce reductions were primarily related to the adverse market conditions currently being experienced by many of our businesses, cost savings actions taken in connection with our ongoing functional transformation initiative, the planned downsizing or shutdown of certain manufacturing facilities, and organizational realignments of portions of our Aerospace and Transportation Systems segments. Also, $45 million of previously established accruals, primarily for severance at our Aerospace, Automation and Control Solutions and Transportation Systems segments, were returned to income in the first nine months of 2009 due to fewer employee separations than originally planned associated with prior severance programs and changes in the scope of previously announced repositioning actions.
In the first nine months of 2008, we recognized repositioning charges totaling $390 million including severance costs of $284 million related to workforce reductions of 5,849 manufacturing and administrative positions across all of our segments. The workforce reductions primarily relate to the planned downsizing or shutdown of certain manufacturing facilities in our Aerospace, Automation and Control Solutions and Transportation Systems segments, the rationalization of non-manufacturing infrastructure, outsourcing of non-core components, and our functional transformation initiative. The repositioning charge also included asset impairments of $78 million principally related to manufacturing plant and equipment in facilities scheduled to close or be downsized and certain administrative facilities and information technology equipment in our Corporate segment.

Certain repositioning projects in our Aerospace, Automation and Control Solutions and Transportation Systems segments included exit or disposal activities, the costs related to which, will be recognized in future periods when the actual liability is incurred. The nature of these exit or disposal costs principally includes product recertification and requalification and employee training and travel. The following table summarizes by segment, expected, incurred and remaining exit and disposal costs related to 2008 repositioning actions which we were not able to recognize at the time the actions were initiated. The exit and disposal costs related to the repositioning actions in the first nine months of 2009 which we were not able to recognize at the time the actions were initiated were not significant.

In the third quarter of 2009, we recognized a charge of $40 million for environmental liabilities deemed probable and reasonably estimable in the quarter. We also recognized a charge of $38 million primarily representing an update to our estimated liability for the resolution of Bendix related asbestos claims as of September 30, 2009, net of probable insurance recoveries. Environmental and Asbestos matters are discussed in detail in Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies.
In the third quarter of 2008, we recognized a charge of $309 million for environmental liabilities deemed probable and reasonably estimable in the quarter. This charge included:
|
|
|
|
|
$100 million related to the resolution of technical design issues regarding the remediation plan for Onondaga Lake (Lake) (as previously reported, the ultimate cost of the remediation of the Lake depended upon the resolution of these issues); |
|
|
|
|
|
$90 million for the estimated cost of proposed remedial actions to be taken at other sites located in Syracuse, New York in accordance with remediation plans submitted to state environmental regulators; |
|
|
|
|
|
$38 million primarily relating to changes in cost estimates (due to, among other things, increases in the cost of steel, waste transportation and disposal costs) and settlement costs relating to the remediation of the New Jersey Chrome sites known as Study Areas 5,6 and 7. |
We also recognized a charge of $43 million representing an update to our estimated liability for the resolution of Bendix related asbestos claims as of September 30, 2008, net of probable insurance recoveries.
In the first nine months of 2009, we recognized a charge of $107 million for environmental liabilities deemed probable and reasonably estimable in the period. We also recognized a charge of $111 million primarily representing an update to our estimated liability for the resolution of Bendix related asbestos claims as of September 30, 2009, net of probable insurance recoveries.
In the first nine months of 2008, we recognized a charge of $426 million for environmental liabilities deemed probable and reasonably estimable in the period, of which $309 million was recognized in the third quarter as discussed above. We also recognized a charge of $105 million representing an update to our estimated liability for the resolution of Bendix related asbestos claims as of September 30, 2008, net of probable insurance recoveries.

The diluted earnings per share calculations exclude the effect of stock options when the options assumed proceeds exceed the average market price of the common shares during the period. For the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the number of stock options excluded from the computations were 29.8 and 15.1 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the number of stock options excluded from the computations were 38.8 and 11.0 million, respectively. These stock options were outstanding at the end of each of the respective periods.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the quantity of inventory valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method in our Specialty Materials segment declined. This reduction resulted in a liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities carried at lower of costs prevailing in prior years as compared with the cost of 2009 purchases, the effect of which decreased cost of products sold by $2 million and $7 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

In February 2009, the Company issued $600 million 3.875% Senior Notes due 2014 and $900 million 5.00% Senior Notes due 2019 (collectively, the 2009 Senior Notes). The 2009 Senior Notes are senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Honeywell and rank equally with all of Honeywells existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior to all of Honeywells subordinated debt. The offering resulted in gross proceeds of $1.5 billion, offset by $12 million in discount and issuance costs.
We sell interests in designated pools of trade accounts receivables to third parties. In April 2009, we modified the terms of the trade accounts receivable program to permit the repurchase of receivables from the third parties at our discretion. This modification will provide additional flexibility in the management of the receivable portfolio and will also require the receivables in the program to remain on the Company balance sheet. As a result, $500 million of program receivables were reflected as Accounts, notes and other receivables with a corresponding amount recorded as Short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of September 30, 2009, these short-term borrowings were $200 million. This modification also results in the program costs being recognized as Interest and other financial charges in the Consolidated Statement of Operations on a prospective basis.
NOTE 11. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures
Credit and Market RiskFinancial instruments, including derivatives, expose us to counterparty credit risk for nonperformance and to market risk related to changes in interest and currency exchange rates and commodity prices. We manage our exposure to counterparty credit risk through specific minimum credit standards, diversification of counterparties, and procedures to monitor concentrations of credit risk. Our counterparties in derivative transactions are substantial investment and commercial banks with significant experience using such derivative instruments. We monitor the impact of market risk on the fair value and cash flows of our derivative and other financial instruments considering reasonably possible changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices and restrict the use of derivative financial instruments to hedging activities.
We continually monitor the creditworthiness of our customers to which we grant credit terms in the normal course of business. The terms and conditions of our credit sales are designed to mitigate or eliminate concentrations of credit risk with any single customer. Our sales are not materially dependent on a single customer or a small group of customers.
Foreign Currency Risk ManagementWe conduct our business on a multinational basis in a wide variety of foreign currencies. Our exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from international financing activities between subsidiaries, foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and transactions arising from international trade. Our objective is to
17
preserve the economic value of non-functional currency denominated cash flows. We attempt to hedge transaction exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through foreign currency exchange forward and option contracts with third parties.
We hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Prior to conversion into U.S. dollars, these assets and liabilities are remeasured at spot exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. The effects of changes in spot rates are recognized in earnings and included in Other (Income) Expense.
We partially hedge forecasted sales and purchases, which predominantly occur in the next twelve months and are denominated in non-functional currencies, with currency forward contracts. Changes in the forecasted non-functional currency cash flows due to movements in exchange rates are substantially offset by changes in the fair value of the currency forward contracts designated as hedges. Market value gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction is recognized.
Open foreign currency exchange forward contracts mature predominantly in the next twelve months. At September 30, 2009, we had contracts with notional amounts of $2,843 million to exchange foreign currencies, principally the US dollar, Euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Mexican peso, Swiss franc, Czech koruna, Chinese renminbi, Indian rupee and Japanese yen.
Commodity Price Risk ManagementOur exposure to market risk for commodity prices can result in changes in our cost of production. We primarily mitigate our exposure to commodity price risk through the use of long-term, fixed-price contracts with our suppliers and formula price agreements with suppliers and customers. We also enter into forward commodity contracts with third parties designated as hedges of anticipated purchases of several commodities. Forward commodity contracts are marked-to-market, with the resulting gains and losses recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction is recognized. At September 30, 2009, we had contracts with notional amounts of $59 million related to forward commodity agreements, principally base metals and natural gas.
Interest Rate Risk ManagementWe use a combination of financial instruments, including long-term, medium-term and short-term financing, variable-rate commercial paper, and interest rate swaps to manage the interest rate mix of our total debt portfolio and related overall cost of borrowing. At September 30, 2009, interest rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges effectively changed $600 million of fixed rate debt at a rate of 3.875 percent to LIBOR based floating debt. Our interest rate swaps mature in 2014.
Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsThe FASBs accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASBs guidance classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
18
|
|
Level 1 |
Unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for |
|
|
Level 2 |
Unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for similar |
|
|
Level 3 |
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability |
The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company has determined that our financial assets and liabilities are level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table sets forth the Companys financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2009:

The foreign currency exchange contracts, interest rate swap agreements, and forward commodity contracts are valued using broker quotations, or market transactions in either the listed or over-the-counter markets. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within level 2. The Company also holds investments in marketable equity securities that are designated as available for sale and are valued using market transactions in over-the-counter markets. As such, these investments are classified within level 2.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts and notes receivables, payables, commercial paper and short-term borrowings contained in the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximates fair value.

In the third quarter and first nine months September 30, 2009, the Company had assets with a net book value of $7 million and $36 million, respectively, specifically property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, which were accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets were tested for impairment and based on the fair value of these assets the Company recognized losses of $4 million and $13 million, respectively, in the third quarter and first nine months. The Company has determined that the fair value measurements of these nonfinancial assets are level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
The Company holds investments in marketable equity securities that are designated as available for sale securities. The Company considers duration of the unrealized loss position, stability of the liquidity positions and financial conditions of the investees, and the Companys intent and ability to hold these investments for a reasonable period of time sufficient for a forecasted recovery of fair value, in determining other than temporary impairments. As a result of an other-than-temporary decline in fair value of these investments, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $62 million in the second quarter of 2009 that is included in Other (Income) Expense.
The derivatives utilized for risk management purposes as detailed above are included on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and impacted the Statement of Operations as follows:

Ineffective portions of commodity derivative instruments designated in cash flow hedge relationships were less than $1 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 and are located in cost of products sold. Foreign currency exchange contracts in cash flow hedge relationships qualify as critical matched terms hedge relationships and as a result have no ineffectiveness.
Interest rate swap agreements are designated as hedge relationships with gains or (losses) on the derivative recognized in Interest and other financial charges offsetting the gains and losses on the underlying debt being hedged. Gains on interest rate swap agreements recognized in earnings were $8 million and $6 million in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009. These gains were fully off-set by losses on the underlying debt being hedged.
We also economically hedge our exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates principally with forward contracts. Forward contracts are marked-to-market with the resulting gains and losses similarly recognized in earnings offsetting the gains and losses on the non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities being hedged. The Company had the following derivatives utilized as economic hedges for foreign currency risk management purposes described above as of September 30, 2009:

In March 2009, June 2009 and July 2009 we made $200, $200 and $340 million, respectively, of voluntary contributions of Honeywell common stock to our U.S. pension plans to improve the funded status of our plans.
On May 1, 2009, Honeywell amended the U.S. retiree medical plan eliminating the subsidy for non-union employees who retire after September 1, 2009. Employees already retired or who retired on or before September 1, 2009 will not be affected by this change. This plan amendment reduced the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by $180 million representing the elimination of benefits attributable to years of service already rendered by active non-union employees who are not eligible to retire and those eligible non-union employees who are assumed not to retire prior to September 1, 2009. This reduction in the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation will be recognized as part of net periodic postretirement benefit cost over the average future service period to full eligibility of the remaining active union employees still eligible for a retiree medical subsidy. This plan amendment also resulted in a curtailment gain of $98 million in the second quarter of 2009 which was included as part of net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The curtailment gain represents the recognition of previously unrecognized negative prior service costs attributable to the future years of service of the employee group for which future accrual of benefits has been eliminated.
NOTE 15. Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental Matters
We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign government requirements relating to the protection of the environment. We believe that, as a general matter, our policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and personal injury and that our handling, manufacture, use and disposal of hazardous substances are in accordance
24
with environmental and safety laws and regulations. However, mainly because of past operations and operations of predecessor companies, we, like other companies engaged in similar businesses, have incurred remedial response and voluntary cleanup costs for site contamination and are a party to lawsuits and claims associated with environmental and safety matters, including past production of products containing hazardous substances. Additional lawsuits, claims and costs involving environmental matters are likely to continue to arise in the future.
With respect to environmental matters involving site contamination, we continually conduct studies, individually or jointly with other potentially responsible parties, to determine the feasibility of various remedial techniques. It is our policy to record appropriate liabilities for environmental matters when remedial efforts or damage claim payments are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Such liabilities are based on our best estimate of the undiscounted future costs required to complete the remedial work. The recorded liabilities are adjusted periodically as remediation efforts progress or as additional technical, regulatory or legal information becomes available. Given the uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, enforcement policies, the impact of other potentially responsible parties, technology and information related to individual sites, we do not believe it is possible to develop an estimate of the range of reasonably possible environmental loss in excess of our recorded liabilities. We expect to fund expenditures for these matters from operating cash flow. The timing of cash expenditures depends on a number of factors, including the timing of remedial investigations and feasibility studies, the timing of litigation and settlements of remediation liability, personal injury and property damage claims, regulatory approval of cleanup projects, remedial techniques to be utilized and agreements with other parties. The following table summarizes information concerning our recorded liabilities for environmental costs:

Although we do not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of liabilities to be recorded upon future completion of studies, litigation or settlements, and neither the timing nor the amount of the ultimate costs associated with environmental matters can be determined, they could be material to our consolidated results of operations or operating cash flows in the periods recognized or paid. However, considering our past experience and existing reserves, we do not expect that these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position.
New Jersey Chrome Sites Provisions have been made in our financial statements for the estimated costs of the court-ordered excavation and transport for offsite disposal of approximately one million tons of chromium residue present at a predecessor Honeywell site located in Jersey City, New Jersey, known as Study Area 7. These expenditures have been and are expected to continue to be incurred evenly through the remedys expected completion date in 2010. We do not expect
25
implementation of this remedy to have a material adverse effect on our future consolidated results of operations, operating cash flows or financial position. Provision also has been made in our financial statements for the estimated costs of implementing related groundwater remedial plans approved by the Court, as well as sediment remedial plans, which also have been approved by the Court and are presently under review by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
The above-referenced site is the most significant of the twenty-one sites located in Hudson County, New Jersey that are the subject of an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) entered into with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) in 1993 (the Honeywell ACO Sites). Remedial investigations and activities consistent with the ACO have also been conducted and are underway at the other Honeywell ACO Sites. We have recorded reserves for the Honeywell ACO Sites where appropriate under the accounting policy described above.
On May 3, 2005, NJDEP filed a lawsuit in New Jersey Superior Court against Honeywell and two other companies seeking declaratory and injunctive relief, unspecified damages, and the reimbursement of unspecified total costs relating to sites in New Jersey allegedly contaminated with chrome ore processing residue. The claims against Honeywell relate to the activities of a predecessor company which ceased its New Jersey manufacturing operations in the mid-1950s. Honeywell and the two other companies have agreed to settle this litigation with NJDEP, subject to Court approval. Under the settlement, Honeywell would pay $5 million of NJDEPs past costs, as well as accept sole responsibility to remediate 24 of the 53 Publicly Funded Sites (i.e., those sites for which none of the three companies had previously accepted responsibility). Honeywell would also bear 50% of the costs at another 10 Publicly Funded Sites. We have recorded reserves for the Publicly Funded Sites where appropriate under the accounting policy described above.
Lawsuits were previously filed in federal court against Honeywell and other landowners by Jersey City and two of its municipal utility authorities, and separately by a citizens group seeking, the cleanup of chrome residue at several of the Honeywell ACO Sites under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Honeywell, Jersey City, the municipal utility authorities and the citizens group have agreed to settle claims relating to a group of properties known as Study Area 6 North, which settlement has been approved by the Court. These sites and other related sites have been classified by Jersey City as an area in need of redevelopment and Jersey City has approved a redevelopment plan and agreement regarding these sites. As part of this settlement, Honeywell has also agreed to release claims it may have had against Jersey City and its municipal utility authorities for contamination of river sediments and for the remediation of chrome residue at the Publicly Funded Sites that are sewer lines. Honeywell and the plaintiffs have reached a settlement for one group of properties known as Study Area 6 South, and that settlement has been approved by the Court. The remedial actions regarding the settlements discussed above, which have also been approved by NJDEP, are consistent with our recorded reserves. Settlement negotiations are ongoing for the remaining sites (portions of what is known as Study Area 5) in the litigation.
Dundalk Marine Terminal, Baltimore Chrome residue from legacy chrome plant operations in Baltimore was deposited as fill at the Dundalk Marine Terminal (DMT), which is owned and operated by the Maryland Port Administration (MPA). Honeywell and the MPA have been sharing costs to investigate and mitigate related environmental issues, and have entered into a cost sharing agreement under which Honeywell will bear 77 percent of the costs of developing and implementing permanent remedies for the DMT facility. The investigative phase is ongoing, after which the appropriate remedies will be identified and chosen. We have negotiated a Consent Decree with the MPA and Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) with respect to the investigation and remediation of the DMT facility. The Consent Decree is being challenged in federal court by BUILD, a Baltimore community group, together with a local church and two individuals (collectively BUILD). In October 2007, the Court dismissed with prejudice BUILDs state law claims and
26
dismissed without prejudice BUILDs RCRA claims regarding neighborhoods near the DMT facility. In August 2008, the Court held a hearing on the Companys motion to dismiss BUILDs remaining claims on the grounds that MDE is diligently prosecuting the investigation and remediation of the DMT. We are awaiting the Courts decision. We do not believe that this matter will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position or operating cash flows. Given the scope and complexity of this project, it is possible that the cost of remediation, when determinable, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations in the periods recognized.
Onondaga Lake, Syracuse, NY A predecessor company to Honeywell operated a chemical plant which is alleged to have contributed mercury and other contaminants to the Lake. In July 2005, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (the DEC) issued its Record of Decision (ROD) with respect to remediation of industrial contamination in the Lake. In January 2007, a Consent Decree was approved by the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York for the implementation of the combined dredging/capping remedy set forth in the ROD. We have accrued for our estimated cost of implementing the remedy set forth in the ROD based on current available information and analysis performed by our engineering consultants.
In December 2006, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service published notice of its intent to pursue natural resource damages related to the site. It is not possible to predict the outcome or timing of its assessments, which are typically lengthy processes lasting several years, or the amounts of or responsibility for these damages.
Honeywell is also conducting remedial investigations and activities at other sites in Syracuse, New York. We have recorded reserves for these investigations and activities where appropriate under the accounting policy described above.
Asbestos Matters
Like many other industrial companies, Honeywell is a defendant in personal injury actions related to asbestos. We did not mine or produce asbestos, nor did we make or sell insulation products or other construction materials that have been identified as the primary cause of asbestos related disease in the vast majority of claimants. Products containing asbestos previously manufactured by Honeywell or by previously owned subsidiaries primarily fall into two general categories: refractory products and friction products.
Refractory Products Honeywell owned North American Refractories Company (NARCO) from 1979 to 1986. NARCO produced refractory products (high temperature bricks and cement) that were sold largely to the steel industry in the East and Midwest. Less than 2 percent of NARCOs products contained asbestos.
When we sold the NARCO business in 1986, we agreed to indemnify NARCO with respect to personal injury claims for products that had been discontinued prior to the sale (as defined in the sale agreement). NARCO retained all liability for all other claims. On January 4, 2002, NARCO filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
As a result of the NARCO bankruptcy filing, all of the claims pending against NARCO are automatically stayed pending the reorganization of NARCO. In addition, the bankruptcy court enjoined both the filing and prosecution of NARCO-related asbestos claims against Honeywell. The stay has remained in effect continuously since January 4, 2002. In connection with NARCOs bankruptcy filing, we paid NARCOs parent company $40 million and agreed to provide NARCO with up to $20 million in financing. We also agreed to pay $20 million to NARCOs parent company upon the filing of a plan of reorganization for NARCO acceptable to Honeywell (which amount was paid in December 2005 following the filing of NARCOs Third Amended Plan of Reorganization), and to pay NARCOs parent company $40 million, and to forgive any outstanding NARCO indebtedness to Honeywell, upon the effective date of the plan of reorganization.
27
We believe that, as part of the NARCO plan of reorganization, a trust will be established for the benefit of all asbestos claimants, current and future, pursuant to Trust Distribution Procedures negotiated with the NARCO Asbestos Claimants Committee and the Court-appointed legal representative for future asbestos claimants. If the trust is put in place and approved by the Court as fair and equitable, Honeywell as well as NARCO will be entitled to a permanent channeling injunction barring all present and future individual actions in state or federal courts and requiring all asbestos related claims based on exposure to NARCO products to be made against the federally-supervised trust. Honeywell has reached agreement with the representative for future NARCO claimants and the Asbestos Claimants Committee to cap its annual contributions to the trust with respect to future claims at a level that would not have a material impact on Honeywells operating cash flows.
In November 2007, the Bankruptcy Court entered an amended order confirming the NARCO Plan without modification and approving the 524(g) trust and channeling injunction in favor of NARCO and Honeywell. In December 2007, certain insurers filed an appeal of the Bankruptcy Court Order in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. The District Court affirmed the Bankruptcy Court Order in July 2008. In August 2008, insurers filed a notice of appeal to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. The appeal is fully briefed, oral argument took place on May 21, 2009, and the matter has been submitted for decision. No assurances can be given as to the time frame or outcome of this appeal. We expect that the stay enjoining litigation against NARCO and Honeywell will remain in effect during the pendency of these proceedings.
Our consolidated financial statements reflect an estimated liability for settlement of pending and future NARCO-related asbestos claims as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 of $1.1 billion. The estimated liability for pending claims is based on terms and conditions, including evidentiary requirements, in definitive agreements with approximately 260,000 current claimants, and an estimate of the unsettled claims pending as of the time NARCO filed for bankruptcy protection. Substantially all settlement payments with respect to current claims have been made. Approximately $100 million of payments due pursuant to these settlements is due only upon establishment of the NARCO trust.
The estimated liability for future claims represents the estimated value of future asbestos related bodily injury claims expected to be asserted against NARCO through 2018 and the aforementioned obligations to NARCOs parent. In light of the uncertainties inherent in making long-term projections we do not believe that we have a reasonable basis for estimating asbestos claims beyond 2018. The estimate is based upon the disease criteria and payment values contained in the NARCO Trust Distribution Procedures negotiated with the NARCO Asbestos Claimants Committee and the NARCO future claimants representative. Honeywell projected the probable number and value, including trust claim handling costs, of asbestos related future liabilities based upon experience of asbestos claims filing rates in the tort system and in certain operating asbestos trusts, and the claims experience in those forums. The valuation methodology also includes an analysis of the population likely to have been exposed to asbestos containing products, epidemiological studies to estimate the number of people likely to develop asbestos related diseases, NARCO claims filing history, the pending inventory of NARCO asbestos related claims and payment rates expected to be established by the NARCO trust. This methodology used to estimate the liability for future claims has been commonly accepted by numerous courts.
As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, our consolidated financial statements reflect an insurance receivable corresponding to the liability for settlement of pending and future NARCO-related asbestos claims of $870 and $877 million, respectively. This coverage reimburses Honeywell for portions of the costs incurred to settle NARCO related claims and court judgments as well as defense costs and is provided by a large number of insurance policies written by dozens of insurance companies in both the domestic insurance market and the London excess market. At September 30, 2009, a significant portion of this coverage is
28
with insurance companies with whom we have agreements to pay full policy limits based on corresponding Honeywell claims costs. We conduct analyses to determine the amount of insurance that we estimate is probable of recovery in relation to payment of current and estimated future claims. While the substantial majority of our insurance carriers are solvent, some of our individual carriers are insolvent, which has been considered in our analysis of probable recoveries. We made judgments concerning insurance coverage that we believe are reasonable and consistent with our historical dealings with our insurers, our knowledge of any pertinent solvency issues surrounding insurers and various judicial determinations relevant to our insurance programs.
In the second quarter of 2006, Travelers Casualty and Insurance Company (Travelers) filed a lawsuit against Honeywell and other insurance carriers in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York, disputing obligations for NARCO-related asbestos claims under high excess insurance coverage issued by Travelers and other insurance carriers. Approximately $340 million of coverage under these policies is included in our NARCO-related insurance receivable at September 30, 2009. Honeywell believes it is entitled to the coverage at issue and expects to prevail in this matter. In the third quarter of 2007, Honeywell prevailed on a critical choice of law issue concerning the appropriate method of allocating NARCO-related asbestos liabilities to triggered policies. The plaintiffs appealed and the trial courts ruling was upheld by the intermediate appellate court in the second quarter of 2009. Plaintiffs further appeal to the New York Appellate Division, the highest court in New York, was denied in October 2009. A related New Jersey action brought by Honeywell has been dismissed, but all coverage claims against plaintiffs have been preserved in the New York action. Based upon (i) our understanding of relevant facts and applicable law, (ii) the terms of the insurance policies at issue, (iii) our experience on matters of this nature, and (iv) the advice of counsel, we believe that the amount due from Travelers and other insurance carriers ($340 million at September 30, 2009) is probable of recovery. While Honeywell expects to prevail in this matter, an adverse outcome could have a material impact on our results of operations in the period recognized but would not be material to our consolidated financial position or operating cash flows.
Projecting future events is subject to many uncertainties that could cause the NARCO related asbestos liabilities or assets to be higher or lower than those projected and recorded. There is no assurance that the plan of reorganization will become final, that insurance recoveries will be timely or whether there will be any NARCO related asbestos claims beyond 2018. Given the inherent uncertainty in predicting future events, we review our estimates periodically, and update them based on our experience and other relevant factors. Similarly we will reevaluate our projections concerning our probable insurance recoveries in light of any changes to the projected liability or other developments that may impact insurance recoveries.
Friction Products Honeywells Bendix friction materials (Bendix) business manufactured automotive brake parts that contained chrysotile asbestos in an encapsulated form. Existing and potential claimants consist largely of individuals who allege exposure to asbestos from brakes from either performing or being in the vicinity of individuals who performed brake replacements.
From 1981 through September 30, 2009, we have resolved approximately 122,000 Bendix related asbestos claims. We had 129 trials resulting in favorable verdicts and 15 trials resulting in adverse verdicts. Two of these adverse verdicts were reversed on appeal, three verdicts were vacated on post-trial motions, three claims were settled and the remaining have been or will be appealed. The following tables present information regarding Bendix related asbestos claims activity:

Approximately 45 percent of the approximately 49,000 pending claims at September 30, 2009 are on the inactive, deferred, or similar dockets established in some jurisdictions for claimants who allege minimal or no impairment. The approximately 49,000 pending claims also include claims filed in jurisdictions such as Texas, Virginia, and Mississippi that historically allowed for consolidated filings. In these jurisdictions, plaintiffs were permitted to file complaints against a pre-determined master list of defendants, regardless of whether they have claims against each individual defendant. Many of these plaintiffs may not actually intend to assert claims against Honeywell. Based on state rules and prior experience in these jurisdictions, we anticipate that many of these claims will ultimately be dismissed.
Honeywell has experienced average resolution values per claim excluding legal costs as follows:

It is not possible to predict whether resolution values for Bendix related asbestos claims will increase, decrease or stabilize in the future.
Our consolidated financial statements reflect an estimated liability for resolution of pending and future Bendix related asbestos claims of $600 and $578 million at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The estimated liability for future claims represents the estimated value of future asbestos related bodily injury claims expected to be asserted against Bendix over the next five years. In light of the uncertainties inherent in making long-term projections, as well as certain factors unique to friction product asbestos claims, we do not believe that we have a reasonable basis for estimating asbestos claims beyond the next five years. The estimate is based upon Bendix historical experience in the tort system for the three years ended December 31, 2008 with respect to claims filing and resolution values. The methodology used to estimate the liability for future claims has been commonly accepted by numerous courts. It is similar to that used to estimate the future NARCO related asbestos claims liability.
Honeywell currently has approximately $1.9 billion of insurance coverage remaining with respect to pending and potential future Bendix related asbestos claims, of which $179 and $156 million are reflected as receivables in our consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. This coverage is provided by a large number of insurance policies written by dozens of insurance companies in both the domestic insurance market and
30
the London excess market. Insurance receivables are recorded in the financial statements simultaneous with the recording of the liability for the estimated value of the underlying asbestos claims. The amount of the insurance receivable recorded is based on our ongoing analysis of the insurance that we estimate is probable of recovery. This determination is based on our analysis of the underlying insurance policies, our historical experience with our insurers, our ongoing review of the solvency of our insurers, our interpretation of judicial determinations relevant to our insurance programs, and our consideration of the impacts of any settlements reached with our insurers. Insurance receivables are also recorded when structured insurance settlements provide for future fixed payment streams that are not contingent upon future claims or other events. Such amounts are recorded at the net present value of the fixed payment stream.
On a cumulative historical basis, Honeywell has recorded insurance receivables equal to approximately 50 percent of the value of the underlying asbestos claims recorded. However, because there are gaps in our coverage due to insurance company insolvencies, certain uninsured periods, and insurance settlements, this rate is expected to decline for any future Bendix related asbestos liabilities that may be recorded. Future recoverability rates may also be impacted by numerous other factors, such as future insurance settlements, insolvencies and judicial determinations relevant to our coverage program, which are difficult to predict. Assuming continued defense and indemnity spending at current levels, we estimate that the cumulative recoverability rate could decline over the next five years to approximately 40 percent.
Honeywell believes it has sufficient insurance coverage and reserves to cover all pending Bendix related asbestos claims and Bendix related asbestos claims estimated to be filed within the next five years. Although it is impossible to predict the outcome of either pending or future Bendix related asbestos claims, we do not believe that such claims would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position in light of our insurance coverage and our prior experience in resolving such claims. If the rate and types of claims filed, the average resolution value of such claims and the period of time over which claim settlements are paid (collectively, the Variable Claims Factors) do not substantially change, Honeywell would not expect future Bendix related asbestos claims to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or operating cash flows in any fiscal year. No assurances can be given, however, that the Variable Claims Factors will not change.

Other Matters
We are subject to a number of other lawsuits, investigations and disputes (some of which involve substantial amounts claimed) arising out of the conduct of our business, including matters relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability, prior acquisitions and divestitures, employee benefit plans, intellectual property, and health and safety matters. We recognize a liability for any contingency that is probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable. We continually assess the likelihood of adverse judgments of outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. Included in these other matters are the following:
Allen, et al. v. Honeywell Retirement Earnings Plan Pursuant to a settlement approved by the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona in February 2008, 18 of 21 claims alleged by plaintiffs in this class action lawsuit were dismissed with prejudice in exchange for approximately $35 million and the maximum aggregate liability for the remaining three claims (alleging that Honeywell impermissibly reduced the pension benefits of certain employees of a predecessor entity when the plan was amended in 1983 and failed to calculate benefits in accordance with the terms of the plan) was capped at $500 million. Any amounts payable, including the settlement amount, have or will be paid from the Companys pension plan. In October 2009, the Court granted summary judgment in favor of the Honeywell Retirement Earnings Plan with respect to the claim regarding the calculation of benefits. We continue to expect to prevail on the remaining claims in light of applicable law and our substantial affirmative defenses, which have not yet been considered fully by the Court. Accordingly, we do not believe that a liability is probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable with respect to these claims and we have not recorded a provision for the remaining claims in our financial statements.
Quick Lube On March 31, 2008, S&E Quick Lube, a filter distributor, filed suit in U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut alleging that twelve filter manufacturers, including Honeywell, engaged in a conspiracy to fix prices, rig bids and allocate U.S. customers for aftermarket automotive filters. This suit is a purported class action on behalf of direct purchasers of filters from the defendants. Parallel purported class actions, including on behalf of indirect purchasers of filters, have been filed by other plaintiffs in a variety of jurisdictions in the United States and Canada. The U.S cases have been consolidated into a single multi-district litigation in the Northern District of Illinois. We intend to vigorously defend the claims raised in these actions. The Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (DOJ) is also investigating the allegations raised in these suits. We are fully cooperating with the DOJ investigation.
32
Given the uncertainty inherent in litigation and investigations (including the specific matters referenced above), we do not believe it is possible to develop estimates of reasonably possible loss in excess of current accruals for these matters. Considering our past experience and existing accruals, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. Because most contingencies are resolved over long periods of time, potential liabilities are subject to change due to new developments, changes in settlement strategy or the impact of evidentiary requirements, which could cause us to pay damage awards or settlements (or become subject to equitable remedies) that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or operating cash flows in the periods recognized or paid.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board
of Directors and Shareowners
of Honeywell International Inc.:
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Honeywell International Inc. and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2009, and the related consolidated statement of operations for each of the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We previously audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of shareowners equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 12, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company retrospectively applied the accounting for Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements in the accompanying December 31, 2008 consolidated balance sheet.

Cost of products and services sold decreased by $1,679 million or 22 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and by $4,236 million or 20 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008. These decreases are principally due to lower sales as a result of the factors discussed above and in the Review of Business Segments section of this MD&A, lower material costs, reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions, benefits from prior repositioning actions and lower incentive compensation), the positive impact of indirect cost savings initiatives across each of our Business Segments and lower repositioning charges.
Gross margin percentage increased by 5.3 percentage points in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and by 1.6 percentage points in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008 primarily due to higher margins in our Specialty Materials and Automation and Control Solutions segments and lower repositioning charges. These items were
35
partially offset by lower margins in our Transportation Systems and Aerospace segments.

The decrease as a percentage of sales in the third quarter was driven by i) the positive impact of indirect cost savings initiatives across each of our Business Segments, ii) reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions, benefits from prior repositioning actions and lower incentive compensation) and iii) lower repositioning charges partially offset by lower sales volumes, resulting in decreased selling and general and administrative expense of $275 million.
The increase as a percentage of sales in the first nine months was driven by lower sales volumes partially offset by i) the positive impact of indirect cost savings initiatives across each of our Business Segments, ii) reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions, benefits from prior repositioning actions and lower incentive compensation) and iii) lower repositioning charges, resulting in decreased selling and general and administrative expense of $584 million.

Other income decreased by $621 in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 primarily due to a lower Gain on sale of non-strategic businesses and assets as a result of the 2008 sale of our Consumables Solutions business.
Other expense of $14 in the first nine months of 2009 compared with Other income of $730 in the first nine months of 2008 is primarily due to a lower Gain on sale of non-strategic businesses and assets as a result of the 2008 sale of our
36
Consumables Solutions business and an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $62 million in the second quarter of 2009.

The effective tax rate decreased by 7.9 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and 2.9 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008 primarily due to the sale of our Consumables Solutions business in 2008 and increased U.S. research and development tax credits in 2009.
The effective tax rate in both periods was lower than the statutory rate of 35 percent due, in part, to foreign earnings taxed at lower tax rates and benefits from the domestic manufacturing deduction and research and development tax credits.

The decrease in both periods is primarily due to decreased segment profit in our Aerospace and Transportation Systems Business Segments in the third quarter and each of our Business Segments in the first nine months and decreased Other (Income) Expense, as discussed above, partially offset by lower repositioning charges and lower income tax expense, as discussed above.

Aerospace sales decreased by 16 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and by 14 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008. Details regarding the decrease in sales by customer end-markets are as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
Air transport and regional original equipment (OE) sales decreased by 21 percent in the third quarter and 28 percent in the first nine months driven primarily by lower sales to our OE customers, consistent with production rates and platform mix, and the impact of divesting our Consumables Solutions business. |
|
|
|
|
|
Air transport and regional aftermarket sales decreased by 17 percent in the third quarter and 14 percent in the first nine months primarily as a result of decreased sales of spare parts and lower maintenance activity driven by the impact of higher parked aircraft part utilization, customer inventory reduction initiatives and decreased flying hours of approximately 1 percent in the third quarter and 3 percent in the first nine months. |
|
|
|
|
|
Business and general aviation OE sales decreased by 66 percent in the third quarter and 41 percent in the first nine months due to the expected decrease in new business jet deliveries reflecting rescheduling and cancellation of deliveries by OE customers which we expect to continue to adversely impact sales. |
|
|
|
|
|
Business and general aviation aftermarket sales decreased by 27 percent in the third quarter and 28 percent in the first nine months primarily due to decreased sales of spare parts and lower revenue associated with maintenance service agreements, consistent with the expected decrease in business jet utilization. |
39
|
|
|
|
|
Defense and space sales increased by 2 percent in the third quarter and the first nine months, with higher sales of logistics services and original equipment for military platforms in both periods, partially offset by program completions. |
Aerospace segment profit decreased by 12 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and by 17 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the first nine months of 2008 due primarily to lower sales as a result of the factors discussed above and inflation, partially offset by volume related material cost reductions and reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions, benefits from prior repositioning actions and lower incentive compensation), the positive impact of cost savings initiatives and increased prices.

Automation and Control Solutions (ACS) sales decreased by 14 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008, primarily due to decreased sales volume (reflecting slower global economic growth) and an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 4 percent, partially offset by a 1 percent growth from acquisitions.
ACS sales decreased by 12 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008, primarily due to decreased sales volume (reflecting slower global economic growth) and an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 7 percent, partially offset by a 4 percent growth from acquisitions.
|
|
|
|
|
Sales in our Products businesses decreased by 14 percent in the third quarter and 13 percent in the first nine months, principally due to (i) lower volume of sales in each or our businesses (excluding the impact of acquisitions) and (ii) the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange. Softness in residential and industrial end-markets was partially offset by the positive impact of acquisitions, most significantly Metrologic Instruments and Norcross Safety Products in the nine month period. |
|
|
|
|
|
Sales in our Solutions businesses decreased by 13 percent in the third quarter and 11 percent in the first nine months driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange and volume decreases largely due to softening demand as a result of customer deferral of capital and operating expenditures. Orders decreased while backlog increased in the third quarter and first nine months compared to the corresponding periods in 2008. Decreased orders are primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange, softening demand (as noted above) and order timing and delays. Higher backlog is primarily due to longer duration projects. |
ACS segment profit was flat in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and decreased by 5 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008. The negative impact of lower sales as a result of the factors discussed above and inflation on segment profit was more than offset in the third quarter and partially offset in the first nine months by lower material costs, reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions,
40
benefits from prior repositioning actions and lower incentive compensation) and the positive impact of indirect cost savings initiatives.

Specialty Materials sales decreased by 23 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and by 25 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008 driven by (i) a 44 percent third quarter and 40 percent first nine months decrease in Resins and Chemicals sales due to substantial price declines arising from pass through of lower raw material cost, (ii) a 24 percent third quarter and 26 percent first nine months decrease in Specialty Products sales most significantly due to continued demand softness across key customer end-markets, (iii) a 11 percent third quarter and a 21 percent first nine months decrease in UOP sales due to customer deferrals of projects as a result of reduced demand for additional capacity in the refining and petrochemical industries as well as lower catalyst sales in the first nine months and (iv) a 9 percent third quarter and 12 percent first nine months decrease in our Fluorine Products business due to lower volume sales of refrigerants and insulating materials principally driven by customer inventory reduction initiatives and soft construction and original equipment manufacturer end markets, partially offset by price increases in the first half of 2009. We expect these industry conditions to continue.
Specialty Materials segment profit decreased by 2 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and by 29 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008. These decreases are due principally to lower sales as a result of the factors discussed above, partially offset by lower material costs, reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions, and lower incentive compensation) and the positive impact of indirect cost savings initiatives.

Transportation Systems sales decreased by 24 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and 36 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008, primarily due to lower volumes (driven by the ongoing challenging global automotive industry conditions) and the negative impact of foreign exchange.
|
|
|
|
|
Turbo Technologies sales decreased by 30 percent in the third quarter and 45 percent in the first nine months primarily due to lower sales volumes to both our commercial and light vehicle engine manufacturing customers and the negative impact of foreign exchange. We continue to see a |
41
|
|
|
|
|
decline in diesel penetration rates in Western Europe and a shift in consumer preference towards lower displacement engines. We expect production rates of light vehicles to begin to increase in the fourth quarter of 2009. |
|
|
|
|
|
Consumer Products Group (CPG) sales decreased by 15 percent in the third quarter and 10 percent in the first nine months, primarily due to lower prices (primarily pass through of ethylene glycol cost decreases), lower volumes and the negative impact of foreign exchange. |
|
|
|
|
|
Friction Materials sales decreased by 21 percent in the third quarter and 32 percent in the first nine months primarily due to continued declines in sales volumes and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange. |
Transportation Systems segment profit decreased by 39 percent in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008 and 79 percent in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008. These decreases were due principally to lower sales volume as a result of the factors discussed above partially offset by lower material costs, reduced labor costs (reflecting reduced census, work schedule reductions, benefits from prior repositioning actions and lower incentive compensation) and the positive impact of indirect cost savings initiatives.
Repositioning and Other Charges
See Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of repositioning and other charges incurred in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Our repositioning actions are expected to generate incremental pretax savings of approximately $225 million in 2009 compared with 2008 principally from planned workforce reductions. Cash expenditures for severance and other exit costs necessary to execute these actions were $141 million in the first nine months of 2009 and were funded through operating cash flows. Cash expenditures for severance and other costs necessary to execute the remaining actions will approximate a total of $225 million in 2009 and will be funded through operating cash flows.

Cash provided by operating activities increased by $83 million during the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008 primarily due to a favorable impact from working capital of $595 million (lower accounts and other receivables, lower inventory, partially offset by lower accounts payable), lower cash taxes of $336 million, and $155 million from the sale of long-term receivables partially offset by decreased earnings, receipts from the sale of
42
insurance receivables of $82 million in the first quarter of 2008 and higher repositioning payments of $53 million.
Cash used for investing activities decreased by $820 million during the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008 primarily due to a $1,640 million decrease in cash paid for acquisitions (most significantly the acquisition of Norcross in the second quarter of 2008 and Metrologic in the third quarter of 2008) and a $200 million decrease in expenditures for property, plant and equipment, partially offset by a $920 million decrease in proceeds from sales of businesses (most significantly the divestiture of Consumables Solutions in the third quarter of 2008).
Cash used for financing activities increased by $965 million during the first nine months of 2009 compared with the first nine months of 2008 primarily due to primarily due to a net repayment of debt (including commercial paper) in the first nine months of 2009 of $664 million compared to net proceeds (including commercial paper) of $1,543 million in the first nine months of 2008, partially offset by a decrease in repurchases of common stock of $1,459 million.
Liquidity
The Company continues to manage its businesses to maximize operating cash flows as the primary source of liquidity. In addition to our available cash and operating cash flows, 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 as well as the ability to sell trade accounts receivables. We continue to balance our cash and financing uses through investment in our existing core businesses, debt reduction, acquisition activity, share repurchases and dividends.
We continuously assess the relative strength of each business in our portfolio as to strategic fit, market position, profit and cash flow contribution in order to upgrade our combined portfolio and identify business units that will most benefit from increased investment. We identify acquisition candidates that will further our strategic plan and strengthen our existing core businesses. We also identify business units that do not fit into our long-term strategic plan based on their market position, relative profitability or growth potential. These business units are considered for potential divestiture, restructuring or other repositioning actions subject to regulatory constraints.
We plan to make voluntary contributions of Honeywell common stock to our U.S. pension plans in 2009, totaling approximately $800 million, to improve the funded status of our plans, of which $740 million has been contributed in the first nine months.
In February 2009, the Company issued $600 million 3.875% Senior Notes due 2014 and $900 million 5.00% Senior Notes due 2019 (collectively, the 2009 Senior Notes). The 2009 Senior Notes are senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Honeywell and rank equally with all of Honeywells existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior to all of Honeywells subordinated debt. The offering resulted in gross proceeds of $1.5 billion, offset by $12 million in discount and issuance costs. Proceeds from the Senior Notes were used to repay outstanding commercial paper.
In August 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of the RMG Group (RMG Regel + Messtechnik GmbH), a natural gas measuring and control products which will be integrated into our Automation and Control Solutions segment. The purchase price, net of cash acquired, was approximately $416 million and was funded using available cash.
43
Current global economic conditions or the current tightening of credit could adversely affect our customers or suppliers ability to obtain financing, particularly in our long-cycle businesses and airline and automotive end markets. Customer or supplier bankruptcies, delays in their ability to obtain financing, or the unavailability of financing could adversely affect our cash flow or results of operations. To date we have not experienced material impacts from customer or supplier bankruptcy or liquidity issues. We continue to monitor and take measures to limit our exposure.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Honeywell management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on From 10-Q to ensure information required to be disclosed in the reports that Honeywell files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO, our CFO, and our Controller, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There have been no changes that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Honeywells internal control over financial reporting that have occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
|
|
|
General Legal Matters |
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 a discussion of environmental, asbestos and other litigation matters in Note 15 of Notes to Financial Statements.
|
|
|
Environmental Matters Involving Potential Monetary Sanctions in Excess of $100,000 |
As previously reported, three incidents occurred during 2003 at Honeywells Baton Rouge, Louisiana chemical plant, including a release of chlorine, a release of antimony pentachloride (which resulted in an employee fatality), and an employee exposure to hydrofluoric acid. Also as previously reported, criminal allegations in these matters were resolved in a misdemeanor plea agreement with the United States Department of Justice and civil matters have been resolved with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality. Civil penalties for these matters sought by the United States Department of Justice were settled for $550,000 in the third quarter of 2009.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency and the United States Department of Justice (federal authorities) are investigating whether the storage of certain sludges generated during uranium hexafluoride production at our Metropolis, Illinois facility has been in compliance with the requirements of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The federal authorities have informed the Company that they expect to call witnesses before a grand jury in this matter. This storage issue was previously voluntarily disclosed to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, with whom Honeywell has been working to resolve the matter. The Company has met with the federal authorities and is cooperating fully with the investigation. Although the outcome of this matter cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that it will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or operating cash flows.
