Cautionary Statement
This release includes statements
related to anticipated earnings, cash flow and dividends that
constitute "forward-looking statements" under the securities laws.
All forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from
those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Past
dividends provide no assurance as to future dividends. The
payment and amount of future dividends could vary significantly
from past amounts due to a number of risks and uncertainties.
Risks and uncertainties include: (1) the effect of economic
conditions in the industries and markets in which Otis and its
businesses operate in the U.S. and globally and any changes
therein, including financial market conditions, fluctuations in
commodity prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange
rates, levels of end market demand in construction, the impact of
weather conditions, pandemic health issues (including COVID-19 and
its effects, among other things, on global supply, demand, and
distribution disruptions as the outbreak continues and results in
an increasingly prolonged period of travel, commercial and/or other
similar restrictions and limitations) and the financial condition
of Otis' customers and suppliers; (2) the expected benefits of
Otis' separation from United Technologies Corporation and timing
thereof; (3) risks associated with indebtedness; (4) the risk that
dis-synergy costs, costs of restructuring transactions and other
costs incurred in connection with the separation will exceed Otis'
estimates; (5) the impact of the separation on Otis' businesses,
resources, systems, procedures and controls, diversion of
management's attention and the impact on relationships with
customers, suppliers, employees and other business counterparties;
(6) challenges in the development and production of new products
and services; and (7) the effect of changes in laws and
regulations and political conditions in countries in which we
operate and other factors beyond our control. The above list of
factors is not exhaustive or necessarily in order of importance.
For additional information on identifying factors that may cause
actual results to vary from those stated in forward-looking
statements, see Otis' registration statement on Form 10 and the
reports of Otis on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with or furnished
to the SEC from time to time. Any forward-looking statement speaks
only as of the date on which it is made, and Otis assumes no
obligation to update or revise such statement, whether as a result
of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required
by applicable law.
