BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Business Summary

Carrier Global Corporation ("we" or "our") is a global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions with a focus on providing differentiated, digitally-enabled lifecycle solutions to our customers. Our portfolio includes industry-leading brands such as Carrier, Viessmann, Toshiba, Automated Logic and Carrier Transicold that offer innovative heating, ventilating, air conditioning ("HVAC") and cold chain transportation solutions to enhance the lives we live and the world we share. We also provide a broad array of related building services, including audit, design, installation, system integration, repair, maintenance and monitoring. Our operations are classified into four segments: Climate Solutions Americas, Climate Solutions Europe, Climate Solutions Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa and Climate Solutions Transportation.

Through our performance-driven culture, we anticipate creating long-term shareowner value by investing strategically to strengthen our product position in homes, buildings and across the cold chain in order to drive profitable growth. We believe our business segments are well positioned to benefit from favorable secular trends, including the mega-trends of urbanization, population growth and demographic shifts, food security and safety, digitalization, global connectivity and energy efficiency. Coupled with our industry-leading brands and track record of innovation, we continue to provide market-leading solutions for our customers.

Our worldwide operations are affected by global and regional industrial, economic and political factors, trade policies and trends. They are also affected by changes in the general level of economic activity, such as changes in business and consumer spending, construction and shipping activity as well as short-term economic factors such as currency fluctuations, commodity price volatility and supply disruptions. We continue to invest in our business, take pricing actions to mitigate supply chain and inflationary pressures, develop new products and services in order to remain competitive in our markets and use risk management strategies to mitigate various exposures.

We continue to actively monitor evolving macroeconomic conditions and recent trade policy announcements. Based on our updated analysis, we expect to fully mitigate our expected 2025 impact from tariffs announced to date through supply chain and productivity actions as well as approximately $200 million of incremental product pricing actions. To date, tariffs have not had a material impact on our business and we are deploying additional strategies, including cost containment measures, to limit future exposure in this current market environment.

Recent Developments

Portfolio Transformation

During 2024, we completed several activities designed to simplify our business portfolio, transforming it into a pure-play climate and energy solutions provider. On January 2, 2024, we acquired the climate solutions business (the "VCS Business") of Viessmann Group GmbH & Co. KG (together with its affiliates, “Viessmann”). The VCS Business, primarily reported in the Climate Solutions Europe segment, is a premier residential and light commercial HVAC provider in Europe that expanded our portfolio to offer a global, comprehensive suite of sustainable and innovative building and cold-chain solutions. In addition, we divested our Commercial and Residential Fire, Access Solutions and Industrial Fire businesses which were historically reported in our Fire & Security segment. The transactions represented a single disposal plan to separately divest multiple businesses over different reporting periods and met the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations. We also divested our Commercial Refrigeration business (“CCR”) during 2024. CCR, which was historically reported in the Climate Solutions Transportation segment (previously named Refrigeration), did not meet the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations.

Segment Reorganization

As a result of our portfolio transformation, we revised our reportable segments during the first quarter of 2025 to better reflect our business strategy, align our management reporting and increase transparency for investors. Under the revised segment structure, we have three new regional HVAC operating segments. Combined with the existing Climate Solutions Transportation operating segment, the four operating segments also serve as our reportable segments. This model is designed to create a simplified, more focused and customer-centric organization across the globe. Each segment reports through separate management teams which regularly review their operating results with our Chief Operating Decision Maker (the "CODM") determined in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. In connection with the revised structure, the CODM changed the measure used to evaluate segment profitability from Operating profit to Segment operating profit. All prior period comparative information has been recast to reflect the revised segment structure.

Income Taxes

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was enacted in the U.S., making permanent key provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act including full expensing of capital investments, while also modifying the international tax framework and reinstating favorable treatment for certain business tax items. The legislation has staggered effective dates from 2025 through 2027. We are currently evaluating its impact on our consolidated financial statements, including considerations for the quarter ending September 30, 2025 as a result of its enactment.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses. We believe that the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their potential significance to the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. In "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our 2024 Form 10-K, we describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in the preparation of the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Except as noted below, there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates.

There has been no significant change in our exposure to market risk during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. For discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Market Risk and Risk Management" in our 2024 Form 10-K.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

This Form 10-Q and other materials Carrier has filed or will file with the SEC contain or incorporate by reference statements which, to the extent they are not statements of historical or present fact, constitute "forward-looking statements" under the securities laws. From time to time, oral or written forward-looking statements may also be included in other information released to the public. These forward-looking statements are intended to provide management’s current expectations or plans for our future operating and financial performance, based on assumptions currently believed to be valid. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "expect," "expectations," "plans," "strategy," "prospects," "estimate," "project," "target," "anticipate," "will," "should," "see," "guidance," "outlook," "confident," "scenario" and other words of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance.

All forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. For those statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, without limitation, those described below and under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our 2024 Form 10-K and in subsequent reports that we file with the SEC, including this quarterly report:

• delays and disruption in the delivery of materials and services from suppliers;

• cost reduction efforts and restructuring costs and savings and other consequences thereof;

• new business and investment opportunities;

• the outcome of legal proceedings, investigations and other contingencies;

• the impact of the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements and labor disputes;

• the effect of uncertainty and/or changes in political conditions in the U.S. and other countries in which Carrier and our businesses operate, including the effect of uncertainty and/or changes in U.S. trade policies, on general market conditions, global trade policies, the imposition of tariffs, and currency exchange rates in the near term and beyond;

• the effect of changes in tax, environmental, regulatory (including among other things import/export) and other laws and regulations in the U.S. and other countries in which we and our businesses operate;

• the ability of Carrier to retain and hire key personnel;

• the scope, nature, impact or timing of acquisition and divestiture activity, such as our acquisition of the VCS Business and our portfolio transformation transactions, including among other things integration of acquired businesses into existing businesses and realization of synergies and opportunities for growth and innovation and incurrence of related costs;

• a determination by the IRS and other tax authorities that the Distribution or certain related transactions should be treated as taxable transactions; and

• risks associated with current and future indebtedness, as well as our ability to reduce indebtedness and the timing thereof.

The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this quarterly report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the date of that document. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Additional information as to factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements is disclosed from time to time in our other filings with the SEC.
