Note 5. Related Party Transactions with Honeywell

Prior to the Spin-Off, the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements were derived from the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accounting records of Honeywell.

Prior to the Spin-Off, Honeywell was a related party that provided certain services, such as legal, accounting, information technology, human resources and other infrastructure support, on behalf of the Company. The costs of these services were allocated to the Company on the basis of the proportion of net revenue. The Company and Honeywell consider the allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the benefits received by the Company.

 

During the period from January 1, 2018 until October 29, 2018, the Company was allocated $228 million of general corporate expenses incurred by Honeywell and such amounts are included within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. As certain expenses reflected in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements include allocations of corporate expenses from Honeywell, these statements could differ from those that would have been prepared had the Company operated on a stand-alone basis.

All significant intercompany transactions between the Company and Honeywell have been included in these Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. During the period from January 1, 2018 until October 29, 2018, sales to Honeywell, Cost of goods sold to Honeywell, and purchases from Honeywell were $24 million, $19 million, and $212 million, respectively. The total net effect of the settlement of these intercompany transactions is reflected in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Cash Flows as a financing activity.

Prior to the consummation of the Spin-Off, Honeywell managed the Company’s hedging activity which included centrally hedging its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates principally with forward contracts. Certain contracts were specifically designated to and entered on behalf of the Company with Honeywell as a counterparty and were used to hedge known or probable anticipated foreign currency sales and purchases. The Company designated these hedges as cash flow hedges and the impact to the financial statements for 2018 was not material.

 

While the Company was owned by Honeywell, a centralized approach to cash management and financing of operations was used. Prior to consummation of the Spin-Off, the Company’s cash was transferred to Honeywell daily and Honeywell funded the Company’s operating and investing activities as needed. Net transfers to and from Honeywell are included within Invested equity on the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Equity. The components of the net transfers to and from Honeywell as of December 31, 2018 are as follows:
