Commercial OE sales were up 1% in the quarter driven by    continued strong OE build rates and favorable platform mix, partially    offset by lower regional jet sales. Commercial Aftermarket growth of 4% was    driven by a 14% increase in spares sales, partially offset by lower    maintenance activities.  * Segment profit was approximately flat, and segment margins expanded 30 bps    to 19.2%, driven by commercial excellence, productivity net of inflation    and favorable aftermarket mix, partially offset by lower volume.Automation and Control Solutions  ($ Millions)                   1Q 2013  1Q 2014  % ChangeSales                              3,786    4,074        8%Segment Profit                       523      580       11%Segment Margin                     13.8%    14.2%    40 bps  * Sales were up 8% reported, 2% organic, compared with the first quarter of    2013, primarily driven by the favorable impact of acquisitions, growth in    Energy, Safety, and Security, particularly Environmental and Combustion    Controls (ECC) and Life Safety, with continued strong sales in U.S.    residential end markets, new product introductions, and improving    non-residential activity, partially offset by anticipated program ramp    downs in Scanning & Mobility.  ACS also had higher service and software    sales in Process Solutions.  * Segment profit was up 11% and segment margins expanded 40 bps to 14.2%    driven by higher sales volume, commercial excellence and productivity net    of inflation, partially offset by the dilutive impact of acquisitions and    continued investments for growth.Performance Materials and Technologies  ($ Millions)                         1Q 2013  1Q 2014   % ChangeSales                                    1,717    1,754         2%Segment Profit                             374      364       (3%)Segment Margin                           21.8%    20.8%  (100) bps  * Sales were up 2% compared with the first quarter of 2013, driven by    increased UOP catalyst and gas processing volume and higher volumes in    Advanced Materials, partially offset by lower equipment, licensing and    service sales, and pricing headwinds in Fluorine Products and Resins &    Chemicals, which are expected to moderate over the remainder of the year.  * Segment profit was down (3%) and segment margins decreased (100) bps to    20.8%, driven by unfavorable petrochemical catalyst shipment mix versus the    prior year, price/raw headwinds in Fluorine Products and Resins &    Chemicals, and continued investments for growth, partially offset by    productivity net of inflation.Transportation Systems  ($ Millions)           1Q 2013  1Q 2014  % ChangeSales                        914      993        9%Segment Profit               111      154       39%Segment Margin             12.1%    15.5%   340 bps  * Sales were up 9% reported, 7% organic, compared with the first quarter of    2013, driven by continued growth from new platform launches, higher global    turbo gas penetration and light vehicle production, and increased    commercial vehicle demand globally.  * Segment profit was up 39% and segment margins increased 340 bps to 15.5%    primarily driven by strong Turbo productivity and volume leverage, and    operational improvements.Honeywell will discuss its results during its investor conference call todaystarting at 9:30 a.m. EDT.

Thismetric can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow frombusiness operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.Previously, we defined free cash flow as cash provided by operatingactivities, less cash expenditures for property, plant and equipment, cashpension contributions, NARCO Trust establishment payments and cash taxesrelating to the sale of available for sale investments.
