UTC REPORTS FIRST QUARTER EPS UP 8 PERCENT TO $0.82, CONFIRMS 2007

OUTLOOK

HARTFORD, Conn., April 18, 2007 – United Technologies Corp. (NYSE:UTX) today reported first quarter 2007 earnings per share of $0.82 and net income of $819 million, up 8 percent and 7 percent, respectively, over the year ago first quarter. As previously disclosed, results for the current quarter include a $0.07 per share impact for the previously announced Otis European Union Commission fine, net of related reserves, restructuring charges, and one-time favorable items. Earnings per share excluding these items were $0.89, 17 percent above the year ago period.

First quarter consolidated revenues increased 16 percent to $12.3 billion, reflecting 10 percent organic growth including a better compare at Sikorsky following the strike last year. Foreign currency translation increased revenues by 3 percent and earnings by $0.03 per share in the quarter.

“Although we regret the first quarter Otis European Commission matter, we have had an excellent start to 2007,” said George David, UTC’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Commercial aerospace markets remain strong and Sikorsky’s shipments have stepped up from last year’s lower rates. Apart from the well reported North American housing market, commercial and residential construction demand worldwide remains strong. Otis’ first quarter orders for new elevators were up 27% from a year ago and have compounded at 14% annually over the last three years. Comparably, Carrier’s commercial air conditioning revenues were up 13% in the quarter and 12% annually over the three years. Accordingly, we confirm our prior guidance for 2007 earnings per share in the range of $4.05 to $4.20 for the year,” he added.

Cash flow from operations was $453 million and capital expenditures were $208 million for the quarter. Share repurchase totaled $500 million for the first three months of the year.

“Cash flow from operations less capital expenditures was well below our net income standard on the payment of the Otis European Commission fine and materially higher tax payments in Canada. These two one-time items totaled approximately $500 million,” David said. “Additionally, Carrier’s inventories built seasonally and aerospace inventories remain high on continued stronger organic growth. We do expect inventory trends to reverse in the second half of the year and as usual to meet our net income standard for cash flow less capital expenditures,” he added.

The accompanying tables include information integral to assessing the company’s financial position, operating performance, and cash flow.

United Technologies Corp., based in Hartford, Connecticut, is a diversified company providing high technology products and services to the building and aerospace industries. Additional information as well as a Web cast is available on the Internet at http://www.utc.com.

This release includes “forward-looking statements” concerning expected revenue, earnings and cash flow and expected share repurchase amounts. These matters are subject to risks and uncertainties. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or implied in forward looking statements include the health of the global economy; strength of end market demand in building construction and in both the commercial and defense segments of the aerospace industry; fluctuation in commodity prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and the impact of weather conditions; and company-specific factors including the availability and impact of acquisitions; the rate and ability to effectively integrate these acquired businesses; the ability to achieve cost reductions at planned levels; challenges in the design, development, production and support of advanced technologies and new products and services; delays and disruption in delivery of materials and services from suppliers; labor disputes; and the outcome of legal proceedings. The level of share repurchases may vary depending on the level of other investing activities. For information identifying other important economic, political, regulatory, legal, technological, competitive and other uncertainties, see UTC’s SEC filings as submitted from time to time, including but not limited to, the information included in UTC’s 10-K and 10-Q Reports under the headings “Business,” “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Cautionary Note Concerning Factors that May Affect Future Results,” as well as the information included in UTC’s Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(1) Debt to total capitalization equals total debt divided by total debt plus equity. Net debt to net capitalization equals total debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by total debt plus equity less cash and cash equivalents.

(2) Organic growth represents the total reported increase within the Corporation’s ongoing businesses less the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and significant non-recurring items. Non-recurring items that are not included in organic growth in 2007 include an $84 million gain at Otis from the sale of land (See Note 3 below), a $40 million gain at Pratt & Whitney from a contract termination, and $151 million from the sale of marketable securities, all of which were partially offset by the $216 million loss recorded in connection with the EU commission fine during the first quarter. Non-recurring items that are not included in organic growth in 2006 include an approximately $25 million gain realized on the sale of a partnership interest in an engine program at Pratt Canada and approximately $25 million from the sale of marketable securities. Constant currency represents reported revenues or operating profit less the impact of foreign currency translation.

(3) The Otis segment results include the gross gain of $84 million from the sale of land. The Consolidated operating results include taxes related to the gain of approximately $29 million in addition to an approximately $27 million charge for the minority partner’s interest in the gain. The resulting impact to consolidated net income is approximately $28 million.
