"Honeywell had a terrific start to the year highlighted by higher than expected 
organic sales, 70 basis points of margin expansion, and strong double-digit 
earnings growth," said Honeywell Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Dave 
Cote. "We've seen good momentum in the U.S. and our key high growth regions, 
which is more than offsetting softness in Europe impacting our short-cycle 
businesses. Our long-cycle businesses, namely commercial aerospace and UOP, had 
particularly strong growth, overdriving expectations in the quarter. As a 
result of our strong first quarter and continued favorable outlook for our 
major markets, we're raising our 2012 earnings per share outlook. Our continued 
seed planting, coupled with great positions in good industries and the Five 
Initiatives - growth, productivity, cash, people, and our enablers - will 
remain the keys to our continued outperformance in 2012 and over the 
long-term."

  * Sales were up 9% compared with the first quarter of 2011.  Organic growth 
    was 8% which was primarily driven by an 18% increase in our Commercial end 
    markets, partially offset by lower services revenue in Defense and Space. 
    Commercial OE sales were up 22%, or 18% organic excluding the impact of the 
    EMS acquisition.  Commercial aftermarket sales were up 16% with growth in 
    both spares and R&O. 
 
  * Segment profit was up 14% and segment margin increased 80 bps to 18.1%, 
    primarily due to strong commercial aftermarket volume and productivity, net 
    of inflation and higher investments in R&D.

Segment Margin                             12.6%  13.0%   40 bps 
 
 
  * Sales were up 4%, 3% organic, compared with the first quarter of 2011 
    driven by growth in Process Solutions and Building Solutions and 
    Distribution, partially offset by a modest (1%) organic decline in Energy, 
    Safety and Security as a result of market headwinds in several of our short 
    cycle businesses.  ACS continues to benefit from new product introductions, 
    geographic expansion, and favorable macro trends such as safety, security, 
    and energy efficiency. 
 
  * Segment profit was up 7% and segment margins were up 40 bps to 13.0% driven 
    by productivity benefits net of inflation, and the absence of prior year 
    dilution from acquisitions.

Segment Margin                            21.0%    19.8%    (120) bps 
 
 
  * Sales were up 19%, 12% organic, compared with the first quarter of 2011, 
    resulting from strong UOP catalyst and licensing sales, the phenol plant 
    acquisition, and strong volumes in Resins & Chemicals, offsetting softer 
    demand in Asia and Europe in Specialty Products and the impact of 
    unfavorable pricing due to more challenging global supply conditions in 
    Fluorines.  Demand for UOP technology offerings and services remained 
    strong with new orders up over 50%. 
 
  * Segment profit was up 12% due to higher volumes, partially offset by 
    continued investment to support growth in the business.  Segment margin 
    decreased (120) bps to 19.8%, primarily due to the dilutive impact of the 
    phenol plant acquisition. This is better than expected performance due to 
    less price/raws headwinds than originally planned.

  * Sales were down (1%), but up 1% on an organic basis, compared with the 
    first quarter of 2011, due to new business launches and higher diesel 
    penetration, partially offset by lower European vehicle production and 
    aftermarket sales volume. 
 
  * Segment profit was up 2% and segment margins increased 40 bps to 12.6% 
    primarily driven by productivity gains including benefits from prior period 
    restructuring actions.

We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, less cash 
expenditures for property, plant and equipment 
 
We believe that this metric is useful to investors and management as a measure 
of cash generated by business operations that will be used to repay scheduled 
debt maturities and can be used to invest in future growth through new business 
development activities or acquisitions, and to pay dividends, repurchase stock, 
repay debt obligations prior to their maturities, or make cash pension 
contributions. This metric can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate 
cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our 
liquidity.

We believe EPS, excluding mark-to-market pension expense and third quarter 2011 
repositioning and other actions funded by CPG gain, is a metric that is useful 
to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis 
of ongoing operating trends 
 
EPS utilizes weighted average shares outstanding of 791.6 million and the 
effective tax rate for the period. Mark-to-market uses a blended tax rate of 36.9%
