Johnson Controls International plc (NYSE: JCI ) discussed its first-quarter financial performance and strategic outlook during its first-quarter 2024 earnings conference call. Despite an early quarter cyber disruption, the company reported results that were in line with expectations, including sales, margins, and adjusted earnings per share. The company is now focusing on digital building solutions and streamlining its portfolio. However, it has adjusted its full-year guidance due to market headwinds in China and is considering strategic alternatives for its non-commercial product lines. The installed backlog has grown, indicating sustained demand in various sectors, but the company faces challenges in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in China.
