Introduction of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at March 31, 2020 and for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 are unaudited, but in the opinion of management include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The results reported in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year in
particular, in light of the completion of the Separation Transactions, Distributions and Raytheon Merger (each defined below). The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes in our Annual Report to Shareowners (2019 Annual Report) incorporated by reference in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for calendar year 2019 (2019 Form 10-K) and with our and Raytheon Company’s other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Separation Transactions and Distributions. On April 2, 2020, United Technologies Corporation (“UTC”) (since renamed Raytheon Technologies Corporation) completed the previously announced separation of its business into three independent, publicly traded companies – UTC, Carrier Global Corporation (“Carrier”) and Otis Worldwide Corporation (“Otis”) (such separations, the “Separation Transactions”). UTC distributed all of the outstanding shares of Carrier common stock and all of the outstanding shares of Otis common stock to UTC shareowners who held shares of UTC common stock as of the close of business on March 19, 2020, the record date for the distributions (the “Distributions”). UTC distributed 866,158,910 and 433,079,455 shares of common stock of Carrier and Otis, respectively in the Distributions, each of which was effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on April 3, 2020. The financial statements of Raytheon Technologies Corporation for the period ended and as of March 31, 2020 include the financial position and results of Otis and Carrier. However, with the completion of the Separation Transactions and the Distributions, the historical results of Otis and Carrier will be presented as discontinued operations in our second quarter financial statements.
Raytheon Merger. On April 3, 2020, following the completion of the Separation Transactions and the Distributions, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 9, 2019, as amended, UTC and Raytheon Company ("Raytheon") completed their previously announced all-stock merger of equals transaction (the "Raytheon Merger"). Upon closing of the Raytheon Merger, UTC changed its name to “Raytheon Technologies Corporation”.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “the Company”, “Raytheon Technologies", and "RTC" mean United Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries when referring to periods prior to the Raytheon Merger and to the combined company, Raytheon Technologies Corporation, when referring to periods after the Raytheon Merger. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Raytheon Company," "Raytheon," or "RTN" mean Raytheon Company and its subsidiaries prior to the Raytheon merger. The financial statements of Raytheon Technologies Corporation for the period ended and as of March 31, 2020 include the financial position and results of Otis and Carrier and do not include the financial position or operations of Raytheon since the Separation Transactions, the Distributions and the Raytheon Merger occurred subsequent to the end of the reporting period.
