Overview

Total sales and revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were $14.247 billion, an increase of $1.358 billion, or 11 percent, compared with $12.889 billion in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts primarily related to the euro, Australian dollar and Japanese yen. The increase in sales volume was driven by services, partially offset by lower sales of equipment to end users. Sales were higher across the three primary segments.

Second-quarter 2022 profit per share was $3.13, compared with $2.56 profit per share in the second quarter of 2021. Profit per share for both quarters included restructuring costs. Profit for the second quarter of 2022 was $1.673 billion, an increase of $260 million, or 18%, compared with $1.413 billion for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to favorable price realization and higher sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs. Unfavorable manufacturing costs largely reflected higher material and freight costs.

Global Business Conditions**:**

We continue to monitor a variety of external factors including the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic around the world, supply chain disruptions, inflationary cost and labor pressures. Areas of particular focus include certain components, transportation and raw materials. Transportation shortages have resulted in delays and increased costs. In addition, our suppliers are dealing with availability issues and freight delays, which leads to pressure on production in our facilities. Contingency plans have been developed and continue to be modified to minimize supply chain challenges that may impact our ability to meet increasing customer demand. We continue to assess the environment and are taking appropriate price actions in response to rising costs. We will continue to monitor the situation as conditions remain fluid and evolve throughout the year.
