Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] |
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations | ASSETS AND LIABILITIES HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS In July 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its R&LC HVAC business, which includes the North America Ducted businesses and the global Residential joint venture with Hitachi, of which Johnson Controls owns 60% and Hitachi owns 40%, to Bosch Group for approximately $8.1 billion in cash with the Company’s portion of the aggregate consideration being approximately $6.7 billion, inclusive of an upfront royalty payment for the licensing of the York tradename. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of fiscal 2025, subject to required regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The R&LC HVAC business, which was previously reported in the Global Products segment, meets the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations as it represents a strategic shift in the Company's operations and results in the exit of substantially all of its residential and light commercial HVAC businesses. Results of the business are presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company determined that the assets and liabilities for the R&LC HVAC business met the held for sale criteria during the fourth quarter of 2024. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the business were reclassified in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2025 and September 30, 2024 to held for sale, and the Company ceased recording depreciation and amortization for the held for sale assets. The following table summarizes the results of the R&LC HVAC business which are reported as discontinued operations (in millions):
