FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS,2020 was a challenging year for ourcompany as we worked through theimpacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.Our operations have experienced andcontinue to experience various degreesof disruption due to the unprecedentedconditions surrounding the pandemic.Across our businesses, we establishedenterprise-wide pandemic responseteams and implemented processes andprocedures to enhance the safety ofour facilities and protect the health andsafety of our employees.At our defense businesses, throughthe hard work of our teams, we wereable to maintain our operations, meetour customer commitments and deliverstrong results. At our commercialbusinesses, we temporarily closed someof our manufacturing facilities due toreduced demand for certain productsduring the first quarter and latter part ofthe second quarter. In the second halfof the year, our commercial businesseshave generally experienced an increase incustomer demand compared with the firsthalf of 2020. Building on this momentum,we delivered strong fourth quarter resultsand look to carry this into 2021.Our revenues for the year were 11.7billion. We recorded a segment profit of 751 million with a profit margin of 6.4percent. Through a focus on workingcapital management and cost control,our manufacturing businesses generated 833 million of net cash from operatingactivities of continuing operations.INVESTMENTS LEAD TONEW OPPORTUNITIES WITHMILITARY CUSTOMERSDespite the pandemic, our priorinvestments in our new products andtechnologies at our defense businessesenabled us to move forward on anumber of military programs and winnew contract awards in 2020.2TEXTRON 2020 ANNUAL REPORTJANUARYScott C.

FOOTNOTE TO SELECTED YEAR-OVER-YEAR FINANCIAL DATAADJUSTED NET INCOME AND ADJUSTED DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHAREAdjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude special charges, net of tax, and an inventory charge, net of tax and a taxbenefit both related to TRU Simulation Training Canada Inc. (TRU Canada) in connection with the restructuring plan and disposition ofthis company. We consider items recorded in special charges, such as enterprise-wide restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, andacquisition-related restructuring, integration and transaction costs, to be of a non-recurring nature that is not indicative of ongoing operations. AtTRU Canada, the inventory charge is excluded as it relates to the write-down of inventory in connection with an action taken under the restructuringplan. Due to the substantial decline in demand and order cancellations for flight simulators resulting from the impact of the pandemic on thecommercial air transportation business, we ceased manufacturing at TRU Canada’s Montreal facility, resulting in the production suspension of itscommercial air transport simulators. As a result of this action and market conditions, the related inventory was written down to its net realizablevalue. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we reached a definitive agreement to sell TRU Canada, which resulted in the recognition of an 8 million taxbenefit. We believe this inventory charge and tax benefit are of a non-recurring nature and are not indicative of ongoing operations.NET INCOME AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION2020(Dollars in Millions, Except Per Share Amounts)2019Net income—GAAPSpecial charges, net of taxesInventory charge, net of taxTax benefit—TRU assets held for sale 309 8151195555 —(8)—Adjusted net income—Non-GAAP 475 870Diluted earnings per share:Net income—GAAP 1.35 3.50Special charges, net of taxes0.520.24Inventory charge, net of tax0.24 —Tax benefit—TRU assets held for sale(0.04)—Adjusted net income—Non-GAAP 2.07 3.74MANUFACTURING CASH FLOW BEFORE PENSION CONTRIBUTIONSManufacturing cash flow before pension contributions adjusts net cash from operating activities (GAAP) for the following: Deducts capital expenditures and includes proceeds from an insurance recovery and the sale of property, plant and equipment to arrive at the net capitalinvestment required to support ongoing manufacturing operations;E xcludesdividends received from Textron Financial Corporation (TFC) and capital contributions to TFC provided under the Support Agreement and debt agreementsas these cash flows are not representative of manufacturing operations;dds back pension contributions as we consider our pension obligations to be debt-like liabilities. Additionally, these contributions can fluctuate Asignificantlyfrom period to period and we believe that they are not representative of cash used by our manufacturing operations during the period; Excludes taxes paid related to the gain realized in 2018 on the Tools and Test business disposition. We have made this adjustment to the non-GAAPmeasure because we believe this use of cash is not representative of cash used by our manufacturing operations.While we believe this measure provides a focus on cash generated from manufacturing operations, before pension contributions, and may be usedas an additional relevant measure of liquidity, it does not necessarily provide the amount available for discretionary expenditures since we havecertain non-discretionary obligations that are not deducted from the measure.MANUFACTURING CASH FLOW BEFORE PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION Millions)2018201720202019Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations—GAAPLess: Capital expendituresDividends received from TFCPlus: Total pension contributionsProceeds from an insurance recovery and sale of property, plant and equipmentTaxes paid on gain on business disposition 833(317)—4733— 960(339)(50)51911Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions—Non-GAAP 596 642(In Millions)TEXTRON 2020 ANNUAL REPORT7
