Third quarter net sales of $3.3 billion decreased 1.4% versus the prior year, with a 1.2% decline in organic sales. Organic sales declined low single digits in both the New Equipment and Service segments.

Third quarter GAAP operating profit of $454 million decreased $28 million from the prior year driven by segment operating profit decline of $18 million, including incremental public company standalone costs, and non-recurring separation costs, partially offset by favorable transactional foreign exchange. GAAP operating profit margin contracted 60 basis points to 13.9%.

Adjusted operating profit of $503 million increased $33 million and $30 million at constant currency. Operating profit growth at constant currency was driven by profit growth of $19 million in the Service segment, lower corporate costs and favorable transactional foreign exchange, partially offset by profit decline of $9 million in the New Equipment segment. Adjusted operating profit margin expanded 120 basis points to 15.4%, with continued margin expansion in the Service segment.

GAAP EPS of $0.61 decreased $0.12, driven by the decline in operating profit and higher interest expense. Adjusted EPS of $0.69 increased $0.14, driven by adjusted operating profit growth and a lower adjusted tax rate.

Year-to-date net sales declined 5.1% versus the prior year, with a 3.3% decline in organic sales and 1.8% headwind from foreign exchange and the impact from divestitures. GAAP operating profit decreased $179 million, with margin contraction of 120 basis points primarily due to higher non-recurring separation costs, incremental public company standalone costs and a one-time charge taken in the first quarter. Adjusted operating profit increased $33 million at constant currency and margin expanded 90 basis points driven by strong performance in the Service segment.

In the third quarter, net sales of $1.4 billion decreased 1.9% with a 1.0% decline in organic sales. Organic sales were down low single digits in EMEA and down slightly in Asia and the Americas. China organic sales were up mid-single digits as the business continued to recover from the impacts of COVID-19.

GAAP operating profit decreased $20 million to $95 million. Adjusted operating profit decreased $12 million to $102 million as material productivity and cost containment actions were more than offset by under-absorption, other field inefficiencies, unfavorable mix and headwinds from foreign exchange. GAAP operating profit was also impacted by incremental public company standalone costs and higher restructuring costs. GAAP and adjusted operating profit margin contracted 120 and 70 basis points, respectively. 

New Equipment orders were up slightly at constant currency with low single digit growth in EMEA and Asia, partially offset by low single digit decline in the Americas. New Equipment orders in China were strong, up high single digits. New equipment backlog at constant currency increased 3% versus prior year.

Year-to-date net sales declined 9.0% with a 7.0% organic decline. GAAP operating profit declined $74 million with margin contraction of 120 basis points and adjusted operating profit, at constant currency, declined $52 million and margin contracted 80 basis points.

In the third quarter, net sales of $1.8 billion decreased 1.0%, with a 1.4% decline in organic sales. Organic maintenance and repair sales declined 1.3% and organic modernization sales declined 2.1%.

GAAP operating profit increased $2 million to $409 million. Adjusted operating profit increased $25 million to $422 million as the benefit from productivity and cost containment actions and a $6 million tailwind from foreign exchange more than offset the impact from lower volume and price concessions. GAAP operating profit was also impacted by incremental public company standalone costs and higher restructuring costs. GAAP and adjusted operating profit margin expanded 40 and 160 basis points, respectively.

Year-to-date net sales declined 2.2% from a slight decline in organic sales and a 1.7% headwind from foreign exchange and the impact of net acquisitions and divestitures. GAAP operating profit increased $9 million with margin expansion of 60 basis points and adjusted operating profit, at constant currency, increased $47 million with margin expansion of 110 basis points.

Year-to-date cash from operations of $1.2 billion increased $156 million and free cash flow increased $142 million to $1.1 million.

*Note: When we provide outlook for organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted effective tax rate and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures generally is not available without unreasonable effort. See "Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional information.

Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Otis Worldwide Corporation ("Otis") reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP information presented provides investors with additional useful information, but should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for the related GAAP measures. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures (referenced in this press release) to the corresponding amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP appears in the attached tables. These tables provide additional information as to the items and amounts that have been excluded from the adjusted measures. 

Organic sales, adjusted selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense, earnings before interest taxes and depreciation ("EBITDA"), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), adjusted effective tax rate and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures.

Organic sales represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and other significant items of a non-recurring and/or nonoperational nature ("other significant items"). Management believes organic sales is a useful measure in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.

Adjusted SG&A expense represents SG&A expense (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, other significant items and allocated costs for certain functions and services previously performed by United Technologies Corporation ("UTC") prior to our separation ("UTC allocated costs") and including estimated standalone public company costs, as though Otis' operations had been conducted independently from UTC ("standalone costs"). Standalone costs for the 2019 fiscal year are based on quarterly estimates determined during Otis' annual planning process for the 2020 fiscal year.

Adjusted operating profit represents income from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, other significant items and allocated costs for certain functions and UTC allocated costs and including estimated standalone public company costs.

Adjusted net income represents net income from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items and UTC allocated costs and including estimated standalone public company costs, estimated adjustments to non-service pension expense, net interest expense and income tax expense as if Otis was a standalone public company ("standalone operating income adjustments"). Adjusted EPS represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the per share impact of restructuring, other significant items and standalone operating income adjustments.

The adjusted effective tax rate represents the effective tax rate (a GAAP measure) adjusted for the tax impact of restructuring costs, significant items and the tax impact of the additional adjustments (estimated standalone public company costs, interest expense and non-service pension expense).

EBITDA represents net income from operations (a GAAP measure), adjusted for noncontrolling interests, income tax expense, net interest expense, non-service pension expense and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, as calculated above, adjusted for the impact of restructuring, other significant items and UTC allocated costs, including estimated standalone public company costs. Management believes that adjusted SG&A, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS and the adjusted effective tax rate are useful measures in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance as if it had been a standalone public company.

Additionally, GAAP financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates ("AFX"). We use the non-GAAP measure "at constant currency" or "CFX" to show changes in our financial results without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under U.S. GAAP, income statement results are translated in U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the period presented. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity and an additional basis for assessing Otis' ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of common stock and distribution of earnings to shareholders.

When we provide our expectations for organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted EPS and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected diluted EPS from continuing operations, operating profit, the effective tax rate, net sales and expected cash flow from operations) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

The above list of factors is not exhaustive or necessarily in order of importance.

1	- Public company standalone costs represent estimated costs such as personnel costs, risk management and incentive compensation that have been incurred and are reflected in results for the quarter ended and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and are not adjusted.  For the quarter ended and nine months ended September 30, 2019, these standalone costs have been included in the adjustments, as though Otis' operations had been conducted independently from UTC.
2	- Otis issued debt and began to incur interest expenses in February 2020 associated with the debt issuance.  The current quarter year-to-date actual interest expense incurred has been reflected in the comparative period in 2019 as though Otis incurred those expenses in the prior year.
3	- Non-service pension included in GAAP net income attributable to Otis includes amounts associated with Otis' participation in UTC retained pension plans. The amounts related to these plans are removed from Otis' results in 2019, as though Otis' operations had been conducted independently from UTC.
