Reconciliation of EPS to EPS, Excluding Pension Mark - to - Market Expense, Debt Refinancing Expense, Separation Costs, Impacts from Tax Legislation ("Tax Reform"), and Earnings Attributable to 2016 Divestitures 21 (1) Utilizes weighted average shares of 775.3 million. Pension mark - to - market expense uses a blended tax rate of 21.3%, debt re financing expense uses a tax rate of 26.5%, and earnings attributable to 2016 divestitures uses a blended tax rate of 33.9%. (2) Utilizes weighted average shares of 772.1 million. Pension mark - to - market expense uses a blended tax rate of 23%. We believe EPS, excluding pension mark - to - market expense, debt refinancing expense, separation costs, impacts from tax reform, a nd earnings attributable to 2016 divestitures, is a measure that is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends. 2016 (1) 2017 (2) Earnings per share of common stock - assuming dilution (EPS) $6.20 $2.14 Pension Mark-to-Market Expense 0.28 0.09 Debt Refinancing Expense 0.12 - Impacts from Separation Costs - 0.02 Impacts from Tax Reform - 4.86 EPS, Excluding Pension Mark-to-Market Expense, Debt Refinancing Expense, Separation Costs and Impacts from Tax Reform $6.60 $7.11 EPS, Attributable to 2016 Divestitures (0.14) - EPS, Excluding Pension Mark-to-Market Expense, Debt Refinancing Expense, Separation Costs, Impacts from Tax Reform and 2016 Divestitures $6.46 $7.11

 
 

Reconciliation of Net Income Attributable to Honeywell to Net Income Attributable to Honeywell Excluding Pension Mark - to - Market Expense, Debt Refinancing Expense, Separation Costs, and Impacts from Tax Reform 22 (1) Pension mark - to - market expense uses a blended tax rate of 36.1%, 21.3% and 23% for 2015, 2016 and 2017. (2) Debt refinancing expense uses a tax rate of 26.5% for 2016. We believe net income , excluding pension mark - to - market expense, debt refinancing expense, separation costs, and impacts from tax reform, is a measure that is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

Reconciliation of Organic Sales % Change 23 We define organic sales percent as the year - over - year change in reported sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the impact on sales from foreign currency translation and acquisitions, net of divestitures. We believe this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongo ing operating trends. A quantitative reconciliation of reported sales percent change to organic sales percent change has not been provided for forw ard - looking measures of organic sales percent change because management cannot reliably predict or estimate, without unreasonable effort, the fluctuations in global currency markets that impact foreign cu rre ncy translation, nor is it reasonable for management to predict the timing, occurrence and impact of acquisition and divestiture transactions, all of which could significantly impact our reported sales percent change . 2017 Reported sales % change 3% Less: Foreign Currency Translation - Less: Acquisitions and Divestitures, Net (1%) Organic Sales % Change 4%

 
 

Reconciliation of Segment Profit to Operating Income and Calculation of Segment Profit and Operating Income Margins 24 (1) Included in cost of products and services sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. (2) Includes repositioning, asbestos, environmental expenses and equity income adjustment. (3) Included in cost of products and services sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, and other income/expense. We define segment profit as operating income, excluding stock compensation expense, pension ongoing income or expense, pensio n m ark - to - market expense, other postretirement income or expense, and repositioning and other charges. We believe these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoi ng operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends. A quantitative reconciliation of segment profit, on an overall Honeywell basis, to operating income has not been provided for al l forward - looking measures of segment profit and segment margin included herewithin . Management cannot reliably predict or estimate, without unreasonable effort, the impact and timing on future operating result s a rising from items excluded from segment profit, particularly pension mark - to - market expense as it is dependent on macroeconomic factors, such as interest rates and the return generated on invested pension plan as sets. The information that is unavailable to provide a quantitative reconciliation could have a significant impact on our reported financial results. To the extent quantitative information becomes available wit hout unreasonable effort in the future, and closer to the period to which the forward - looking measures pertain, a reconciliation of segment profit to operating income will be included within future presentations . ($M) 2016 2017 Segment profit $7,186 $7,690 Stock compensation expense (1) (184) (176) Repositioning and other (2,3) (679) (1,010) Pension ongoing income (1) 601 713 Pension mark-to-market expense (1) (273) (87) Other postretirement income (1) 32 21 Operating income $6,683 $7,151 Segment profit $7,186 $7,690 ÷ Sales $39,302 $40,534 Segment profit margin % 18.3% 19.0% Operating income $6,683 $7,151 ÷ Sales $39,302 $40,534 Operating income margin % 17.0% 17.6%

 
 

Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow 25 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 wil l be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisiti ons , pay dividends, repurchase stock or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. This metric can also be used to evaluate our ability to ge nerate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity. ($M) 2016 2017 Cash Provided by Operating Activities $5,498 $5,966 Expenditures for Property, Plant and Equipment (1,095) (1,031) Free Cash Flow $4,403 $4,935
