"Honeywell had a terrific second quarter capping off a strong first half of 2015," said Honeywell Chairman and CEO Dave Cote. "We delivered 3% core organic sales growth and had another quarter of double-digit earnings growth when normalized for tax. We saw growth acceleration in both the short- and long-cycle businesses within Aerospace, continued growth in our commercial and industrial businesses within ACS, and higher volume across our Advanced Materials portfolio, particularly in Fluorine Products. We saw margin expansion in each segment, with a significant portion from gross margin, as our new products, process focus, disciplined cost management, and restructuring continue to distinguish Honeywell's performance. We remain committed to seed planting and process improvements throughout our portfolio. Once again we proactively funded repositioning actions that will improve our cost position and drive the efficiencies necessary for winning in a slow growth global economy. Our great first half performance gives us confidence to again raise the low end of our full-year EPS guidance range by $0.05 to $6.05-$6.15, and we remain committed to our full-year core organic sales growth and free cash flow estimates. We believe that our balanced portfolio of short- and long-cycle businesses, penetration in High Growth Regions, and the deployment of our key process initiatives will continue to drive results this year and over the long term."

\* Throughout this press release, core organic sales growth refers to reported sales growth less the impacts from foreign currency movement, M&A and raw materials pricing in the Resins & Chemicals business of PMT. The raw materials pricing impact is excluded in instances where raw materials costs are passed through to customers, which drives fluctuations in selling prices not necessarily tied to volume growth. A reconciliation of core organic sales growth to reported sales growth is provided in the attached financial tables.

| Core organic sales growth | (1%) |
| Throughout this press release, core organic sales growth refers to reported sales growth less the impacts from foreign currency movement, M&A and raw materials pricing in the Resins & Chemicals business of PMT. The raw materials pricing impact is excluded in instances where raw materials costs are passed through to customers, which drives fluctuations in selling prices not necessarily tied to volume growth. |
| We believe core organic sales growth is a measure that is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends. |

| 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 will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions, and to pay dividends, repurchase stock, or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. This metric can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity. |
