That would equate to earnings of $1.26 billion, or $1.31 per share, compared with earnings from those same operations last year of $1.05 billion, or $1.06 per share.

That tops the $1.21 expected on Wall Street, according to a poll by FactSet.

The parent company of jet engine maker Pratt & Whitney, Otis elevator, Carrier heating and cooling and other aerospace and building systems companies said Tuesday that revenue was $12.42 billion in the January-March quarter, down 2 per cent from the same period last year.

Including the discontinued operations, net income fell to $330 million, compared with $1.01 billion last year.
