Description: JCI Johnson Controls February 28, 2026

Johnson Controls International plc (JCI) designs, manufactures, installs, and services a broad portfolio of building-centric products-including HVAC, fire safety, security, and smart-building technologies-serving commercial, institutional, industrial, data-center, and government customers across North America, EMEA/LA, Asia Pacific, and its Global Products segment.

In its most recent fiscal year (FY 2023), JCI reported revenue of $26.5 billion, a 4 % YoY increase driven by strong demand for energy-efficiency retrofits and digital building solutions; its adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 11.8 % versus 10.9 % a year earlier, reflecting higher services revenue and cost-control initiatives. The company’s growth is further supported by macro trends such as rising ESG regulations, which are accelerating adoption of low-carbon HVAC systems, and a tightening global labor market that fuels demand for integrated, data-driven facility management platforms.
