HONEYWELL THIRD QUARTER SALES UP 15% TO $8.0 BILLION;

EARNINGS UP 22% TO 66 CENTS PER SHARE

2006 EPS Guidance Moves to High End of Range

MORRIS TOWNSHIP, N.J., October 19, 2006 — Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced that third quarter 2006 sales increased 15% to $8.0 billion, driven by 9% organic sales growth. Earnings were $0.66 per share versus $0.54 last year, an increase of 22%. Earnings per share growth was 36%, after taking into account income from discontinued operations ($0.04) in the third quarter of 2005, and stock options expense ($0.02) in 2006. Cash flow from operations was $796 million versus $705 million last year, and free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) was $634 million versus $543 million in the third quarter of 2005.

“We are pleased with our double-digit sales and earnings growth in the third quarter,” said Honeywell Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Dave Cote. “These results demonstrate the progress Honeywell has made in building a global multi-industry portfolio that continues to perform in dynamic business conditions. We are confident in our ability to deliver 13% sales growth, more than a 30% increase in earnings, and 25% growth in free cash flow this year.”

Honeywell re-affirmed its previously stated 2006 sales guidance of more than $31 billion. The company now expects earnings per share of $2.51 - 2.53, the high end of its previously stated range, and free cash flow of approximately $2.2 billion (cash flow from operations of approximately $3.0 billion).

“While we anticipate slightly lower global economic growth next year, overall macro-trends remain favorable to our multi-industry portfolio,” concluded Cote. “In 2007, we expect continued healthy organic sales growth, a double-digit increase in earnings, and strong free cash flow. We will continue to deploy cash effectively to grow our businesses and to return value to shareowners through share repurchases and dividends.”

Segment Highlights

Aerospace

 

Sales were up 9% compared with the third quarter of 2005, with 11% growth in Commercial and 6% growth in Defense and Space sales. Commercial sales reflected growth of 17% in original equipment and 7% in aftermarket spares and services. Defense and Space sales were driven by a 9% increase in Defense and a recovery in Space sales in the quarter.

 

Segment margins were 17.6% compared with 16.4% a year ago, driven by volume growth, price and productivity savings, including the realization of the expected savings from the 2005 Aerospace reorganization, which more than offset inflation and the impact of stronger commercial OE sales mix.

 

Defense and Space teamed with Lockheed Martin and was selected by NASA to build the Orion manned spacecraft. Honeywell will provide a major portion of the avionics hardware and software, displays and controls, system management and navigation, logistics, communications and ground operations support for Orion.

 

Honeywell’s TFE731-50 turbofan engine has been selected to power Raytheon Aircraft’s new Hawker 900XP mid-size business jet. The engine is designed to deliver up to 5,000 pounds of take-off thrust, operates at a cooler internal temperature than previous TFE engines, and includes integrated nacelle and thrust reverser systems.

 

Honeywell Apex integrated avionics system was selected by Pilatus for their PC-12, single-engine turboprop aircraft. The Apex suite provides advanced autoflight, navigation and situation awareness capabilities, including digital technology, ultra-high resolution displays, and fully automated controls for easier flight deck operation and improved aircraft safety.

Automation and Control Solutions

 

Sales were up 16% compared with the third quarter of 2005, driven by organic sales growth of 11% (10% in the Products and 14% in the Solutions businesses) and the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures of 5%.

 

While segment profit was up 10%, margins were 11.6% compared with 12.3% a year ago, due to the negative impacts of inflation, sales mix, the dilutive impact of acquisitions and planned ERP implementation costs, which more than offset volume growth and productivity gains.

 

Honeywell Analytics won a $4.0 million contract with one of the world’s largest semiconductor companies, a manufacturer of flash memory products used in the personal computer and mobile telephone industries, for its Vertex multi-point gas analyzer, which monitors for leaks of toxic gases that are used during manufacturing.

 

Honeywell Process Solutions was awarded a three-year $41.0 million contract with Eskom, the national electricity utility of South Africa. Honeywell will supply its Experion® Process Knowledge System (PKS), field instrumentation, basic design, engineering, fire detection, training simulation and installation services to the plant.

 

Honeywell Building Solutions was awarded a $4.2 million project to provide a comprehensive energy efficiency program for the Kongju National University in South Korea.

Transportation Systems

 

Sales were up 5% compared with the third quarter of 2005, due to increased Turbo Technologies sales and the positive impact of foreign exchange, partially offset by the impact of lower consumer spending on automotive aftermarket product sales, as well as the 2005 exit of the Friction Materials OE business in North America.

 

Segment margins were 11.6% compared with 11.4% a year ago, due to productivity gains, which include savings from previous restructuring actions, and Turbo Technologies volume growth, partially offset by inflation and lower sales of automotive aftermarket products.

 

Turbo Technologies won positions on five new gas and diesel boosting platforms, worth an estimated $160 million in annual revenues at full production. The first of these platforms is expected to launch in 2008.

 

At this year’s Paris Motor Show, Honeywell introduced the world’s first parallel sequential dual stage turbo application, which delivers up to 30% more torque over conventional turbo-diesel engines. The application will be launched on the Peugeot 407 and 607, as well as the Citroen C5 and C6 passenger vehicles.

Specialty Materials

 

Sales were up 48% compared with the third quarter of 2005, driven by the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures of 39% and organic sales growth of 9%.

 

Segment margins were 9.6% compared with 7.5% a year ago, due to the positive net impact of acquisitions and divestitures, volume and price increases, which more than offset higher raw material costs and the impact of a partial plant outage in the Resins and Chemicals business.

 

UOP announced it will provide key technology processes to Petrotrin, the national petroleum company of Trinidad and Tobago, as part of the company’s comprehensive three-year gasoline optimization program for its Pointe-a-Pierre refinery in South Trinidad.

 

Honeywell Electronic Materials partnered with DuPont to develop a new process for making high-purity titanium metal powder that will allow manufacturers to make parts faster, with less machining, significantly less scrap and at a lower cost, while yielding virtually the same strength and weight characteristics as machined titanium.

Honeywell will discuss its results during its investor conference call today starting at 9:00 a.m. EDT. To participate, please dial (706) 643-7681 a few minutes before the 9:00 a.m. start.

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, or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. 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.
