     annual income tax rates. Income tax expense varies from the normal U.S.
     statutory tax rate primarily because of state taxes and variations in the
     tax rates on foreign source income. While a portion of the annual tax
     provisions will be deferred income taxes, it is not practicable to
     determine the amount or composition of deferred income taxes for interim
     periods. Income taxes paid, net of refunds received, amounted to $29.7 and
     $37.2 for the second quarters of 1999 and 1998, and $221.8 and $162.5 for
     the first six months of 1999 and 1998, respectively. Income taxes paid
     increased in 1999 due to additional estimated income tax payments during
     the first quarter.

(4)  Dividends per share of common stock were $0.29 and $0.28 for the second
     quarters of 1999 and 1998 and $0.58 and $0.56 for the first six months
     of 1999 and 1998, respectively.

(6)  LITTON LITIGATION.

     On March 13, 1990, Litton Systems, Inc. filed a legal action against
     Honeywell in U.S. District Court, Central District of California, Los
     Angeles (the "trial court") with claims that were subsequently split into
     two separate cases. One alleges patent infringement under federal law for
     using an ion-beam process to coat mirrors incorporated in Honeywell's ring
     laser gyroscopes, and tortious interference under state law for interfering
     with Litton's prospective advantage with customers and contractual
     relationships with an inventor and his company, Ojai Research, Inc. The
     other case alleges monopolization and attempted monopolization under
     federal antitrust laws by Honeywell in the sale of inertial reference
     systems containing ring laser gyroscopes into the commercial aircraft
     market. Honeywell generally denied Litton's allegations in both cases. In
     the patent/tort case, Honeywell also contested the validity as well as the
     infringement of the patent, alleging, among other things, that the patent
     had been obtained by Litton's inequitable conduct before the United States
     Patent and Trademark Office.

     PATENT/TORT CASE

     U.S. District Court Judge Mariana Pfaelzer presided over a three month
     patent infringement and tortious interference trial in 1993. On August 31,
     1993 a jury returned a verdict in favor of Litton, awarding damages against
     Honeywell in the amount of $1.2 billion on three claims. Honeywell filed
     post-trial motions contesting the verdict and damage award. On January 9,
     1995, the trial court set them all aside, ruling, among other things, that
     the Litton patent was invalid due to obviousness, unenforceable because of
     Litton's inequitable conduct before the Patent and Trademark Office, and in
     any case, not infringed by Honeywell's current process. It further ruled
     that Litton's state tort claims were not supported by sufficient evidence.
     The trial court also held that if its rulings concerning liability were
     vacated or reversed on appeal, Honeywell should at least be granted a new
     trial on the issue of damages because the jury's award was inconsistent
     with the clear weight of the evidence and based upon a speculative damage
     study.

     The trial court's rulings were appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for
     the Federal Circuit (the "Federal Circuit"), and on July 3, 1996, in a two
     to one split decision, a three judge panel of that court reversed the trial
     court's rulings of patent invalidity, unenforceability and
     non-infringement, and also found Honeywell to have violated California law
     by intentionally interfering with Litton's consultant contracts and
     customer prospects. However, the panel upheld two trial court rulings
     favorable to Honeywell, namely that Honeywell was entitled to a new trial
     for damages on all claims, and also to a grant of intervening patent rights
     which are to be defined and quantified by the trial court. After
     unsuccessfully requesting a rehearing of the panel's decision by the full
     Federal Circuit appellate court, Honeywell filed a petition with the U.S.
     Supreme Court on November 26, 1996, seeking review of the panel's decision.
     In the interim, Litton filed a motion and briefs with the trial court
     seeking injunctive relief against Honeywell's commercial ring laser
     gyroscope sales. After Honeywell and certain aircraft manufacturers filed
     briefs and made oral arguments opposing the injunction, the trial court
     denied Litton's motion on public interest grounds on December 23, 1996, and
     then scheduled the patent/tort damages retrial for May 6, 1997.

     On March 17, 1997, the U.S. Supreme Court granted Honeywell's petition for
     review and vacated the July 3, 1996, Federal Circuit panel decision. The
     case was remanded to the Federal Circuit panel for reconsideration in light
     of a recent decision by the U.S. Supreme Court in the WARNER-JENKINSON VS.
     HILTON DAVIS case, which refined the law concerning patent infringement
     under the doctrine of equivalents. On March 21, 1997, Litton filed a notice
     of appeal to the Federal Circuit of the trial court's December 23, 1996
     decision to deny injunctive relief, but the Federal Circuit stayed any
     briefing or consideration of that matter until such time as it completed
     its reconsideration of liability issues ordered by the U.S. Supreme Court.

     The liability issues were argued before the same three judge Federal
     Circuit panel on September 30, 1997. On April 7, 1998, the panel issued its
     decision:

         (i) affirming the trial court's ruling that Honeywell's hollow cathode
         and RF ion-beam processes do not literally infringe the asserted claims
         of Litton's `849 reissue patent ("Litton's patent");

<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 9

         (ii) vacating the trial court's ruling that Honeywell's RF ion-beam
         process does not infringe the asserted claims of Litton's patent under
         the doctrine of equivalents, but also vacating the jury's verdict on
         that issue and remanding that issue to the trial court for further
         proceedings in accordance with the WARNER-JENKINSON decision;

         (iii) vacating the jury's verdict that Honeywell's hollow cathode
         process infringes the asserted claims of Litton's patent under the
         doctrine of equivalents and remanding that issue to the trial court for
         further proceedings;

         (iv) reversing the trial court's ruling with respect to the torts of
         intentional interference with contractual relations and intentional
         interference with prospective economic advantage, but also vacating the
         jury's verdict on that issue, and remanding the issue to the trial
         court for further proceedings in accordance with California state law;

         (v) affirming the trial court's grant of a new trial to Honeywell on
         damages for all claims, if necessary;

         (vi) affirming the trial court's order granting intervening rights to
         Honeywell in the patent claim;

         (vii) reversing the trial court's ruling that the asserted claims of
         Litton's patent were invalid due to obviousness and reinstating the
         jury's verdict on that issue; and

         (viii)reversing the trial court's determination that Litton had
         obtained its `849 reissue patent through inequitable conduct.

     Litton's request for a rehearing of the panel's decision by the full
     Federal Circuit court was denied and its appeal of the denial of an
     injunction was dismissed. The case was remanded to the trial court for
     further legal and perhaps factual review. The parties filed motions with
     the trial court to dispose of the remanded issues as matters of law, which
     were argued before the trial court on July 26, 1999. The court took the
     matters under advisement without indicating when a decision will be
     forthcoming. If some of the remanded issues are not disposed of by legal
     motions, a jury trial of the remaining issues may be necessary.

     When preparing for the patent/tort damages retrial that was scheduled for
     May 1997, Litton had submitted a revised damage study to the trial court,
     seeking damages as high as $1.9 billion. Honeywell believes that its
     ion-beam processes do not infringe Litton's patent, and further, that
     Litton's damage study remains flawed and speculative for a number of
     reasons. Based on the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in the WARNER-JENKINSON
     VS. HILTON DAVIS case, which refined the law concerning patent infringement
     under the doctrine of equivalents, and the Federal Circuit panel's recent
     decision remanding certain issues in the patent/tort case to the trial
     court, Honeywell also believes that it is reasonably possible that the
     trial court will conclude that Honeywell did not infringe Litton's patent
     or interfere with its contractual relationships, and that no damages will
     ultimately be awarded to Litton. Although is not possible at this time to
     predict the outcome of the issues remanded to the trial court or any
     further appeals in this case, some potential does remain for adverse
     judgments which could be material to Honeywell's financial position or
     results of operations. Honeywell believes however, that any potential award
     of damages for an adverse judgment of infringement or interference should
     be based upon a reasonable royalty reflecting the value of the ion-beam
     coating process, and further that such an award would not be material to
     Honeywell's financial position or results of operations. As a result of the
     uncertainty regarding the outcome of this matter, no provision has been
     made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability.

     ANTITRUST CASE

     Preparations for, and conduct of, the trial in the antitrust case have
     generally followed the completion of comparable proceedings in the
     patent/tort case. The antitrust trial did not begin until November 20,
     1995. Judge Pfaelzer also presided over the trial, but it was held before a
     different jury. At the close of evidence and

<PAGE>
                                                                       Page 10

     before jury deliberations began, the trial court dismissed, for failure of
     proof, Litton's contentions that Honeywell had illegally monopolized and
     attempted to monopolize by:

         (i) engaging in below-cost predatory pricing;

         (ii) tying and bundling product offerings under packaged pricing;

         (iii) misrepresenting its products and disparaging Litton products; and

         (iv) acquiring the Sperry Avionics business in 1986.

     On February 2, 1996, the case was submitted to the jury on the remaining
     allegations that Honeywell had illegally monopolized and attempted to
     monopolize by:

         (i) entering into certain long-term exclusive dealing and penalty
         arrangements with aircraft manufacturers and airlines to exclude Litton
         from the commercial aircraft market, and

         (ii) failing to provide Litton with access to proprietary software used
         in the cockpits of certain business jets.

     On February 29, 1996, the jury returned a $234 million single damages
     verdict against Honeywell for illegal monopolization, which verdict would
     have been automatically trebled. On March 1, 1996, the jury indicated that
     it was unable to reach a verdict on damages for the attempt to monopolize
     claim, and a mistrial was declared as to that claim.

     Honeywell subsequently filed a motion for judgment as a matter of law and a
     motion for a new trial, contending, among other things, that the jury's
     partial verdict should be overturned because Honeywell was prejudiced at
     trial, and Litton failed to prove essential elements of liability or submit
     competent evidence to support its speculative, all-or-nothing $298.5
     million damage claim. Litton filed motions for entry of judgment and
     injunctive relief. On July 24, 1996, the trial court denied Honeywell's
     alternative motions for judgment as a matter of law or a complete new
     trial, but concluded that Litton's damage study was seriously flawed and
     granted Honeywell a retrial on damages only. The court also denied Litton's
     two motions. At that time, Judge Pfaelzer was expected to conduct the
     retrial of antitrust damages sometime following the retrial of patent/tort
     damages. However, after the U.S. Supreme Court remanded the patent/tort
     case to the Federal Circuit in March 1997, Litton moved to have the trial
     court expeditiously schedule the antitrust damages retrial. In September
     1997, the trial court rejected that motion, indicating that it wished to
     know the outcome of the current patent/tort appeal before scheduling
     retrials of any type.

     Following the April 7, 1998 Federal Circuit panel decision in the
     patent/tort case, Litton again petitioned the trial court to schedule the
     retrial of antitrust damages. The trial court tentatively scheduled the
     trial to commence in the fourth quarter of 1998, and reopened limited
     discovery and other pretrial preparations. Litton then filed another
     antitrust damage claim of nearly $300 million.

     The damages only retrial began October 29, 1998, before Judge Pfaelzer, but
     a different jury. On December 9, 1998, the jury returned verdicts against
     Honeywell totaling $250 million, $220 million of which is in favor of
     Litton Systems Inc. and $30 million of which is in favor of its sister
     corporation LSL, Canada.

     On January 27, 1999, the court vacated its prior mistrial ruling with
     respect to the attempt to monopolize claim and entered a treble damages
     judgment in the total amount of $750 million for actual and attempted
     monopolization.

     Honeywell believes that there was no factual or legal basis for the
     magnitude of the jury's award in the damages retrial and that, as was the
     case in the first trial, the jury's award should be overturned. Honeywell
     also believes there are serious questions concerning the identity and
     nature of the business arrangements and conduct which were found by the
     first antitrust jury in 1996 to be anti-competitive and damaging to Litton,

<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 11

     and there are very strong grounds to overturn the verdict of liability as a
     matter of law. Honeywell has filed appropriate post-judgment motions with
     the trial court and Litton has filed motions seeking to add substantial
     attorney's fees and costs to the judgment. A hearing on the post-judgment
     was held before the trial court on May 20, 1999. The court took the matters
     under advisement without indicating when a decision will be forthcoming.
     Once the trial court has ruled on those motions, the parties will have the
     right to appeal the eventual judgment, as to both liability and damages, to
     the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Execution of the trial
     court's judgment will be stayed pending resolution of Honeywell's
     post-judgment motions and the disposition of any appeals filed by the
     parties.

     Although is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of the motions
     before the trial court or any eventual appeals in this case, some potential
     remains for adverse judgments which could be material to Honeywell's
     financial position or results of operations. As a result of the uncertainty
     regarding the outcome of this matter, no provision has been made in the
     financial statements with respect to this contingent liability. Honeywell
     also believes that it would be inappropriate for Litton to obtain recovery
     of the same damages, e.g. losses it suffered due to Honeywell's sales of
     ring laser gyroscope-based inertial systems to OEMs and airline customers,
     under multiple legal theories, claims, and cases, and that eventually any
     duplicative recovery would be eliminated from the antitrust and patent/tort
     cases.

     In the fall of 1996, Litton and Honeywell commenced a court ordered
     mediation of the patent, tort and antitrust claims. No claim was resolved
     or settled, and the mediation is currently in recess.

(7)  As of July 4, 1999, Honeywell had reserved 10,857,849 shares of common
     stock for the issuance of shares in connection with stock option and stock
     bonus plans.

(8)  In 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
     Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
     Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," which is effective for
     fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. Honeywell elected to
     adopt this SOP effective January 1, 1998. The accounting change has a
     positive impact on Income and is included in both 1998 and 1999's results
     for comparative purposes.

(9)  In 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
     Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
     Activities," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
     15, 1998. This SOP requires that companies expense start-up costs and
     organizational costs as they are incurred. Honeywell has adopted this SOP
     effective January 1, 1999, and the impact on results of operations and
     financial position was immaterial.

(10)  In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
      Income," which was adopted by Honeywell beginning January 1, 1998. SFAS
      No. 130 requires the reporting of comprehensive income and its components
      in the general purpose financial statements. This Statement also requires
      that an entity classify items of other comprehensive income by their
      nature in an annual financial statement. Honeywell's total comprehensive
      income for the quarter is as follows:

      Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
      Instruments and Hedging Activities" which is effective for fiscal years
      beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133 requires companies to record

      on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value.
      Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives
      would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether
      it qualifies for hedge accounting. Honeywell is currently reviewing the
      standard and its effect on the financial statements.

(12)  The amounts set forth in this quarterly report are unaudited but, in the
      opinion of the registrant, include all adjustments necessary for a fair
      presentation of the results of operations for the six month periods ended
      July 4, 1999 and July 5, 1998, respectively. Honeywell's accounting
      policies are further described in the notes to financial statements in its
      Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

(13)  On June 4, 1999, AlliedSignal Inc. ("AlliedSignal") and Honeywell Inc.
      entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"),
      pursuant to which each outstanding share of Honeywell common stock
      ("Honeywell Common Stock") will be converted into the right to receive
      1.875 shares of common stock of AlliedSignal (the "AlliedSignal Common
      Stock"). When the merger is effective, Honeywell will become a
      wholly-owned subsidiary of AlliedSignal. At the end of the second quarter
      of 1999, based on approximately 127 million Honeywell shares outstanding
      and AlliedSignal's stock price, the transaction is valued at approximately
      $15 billion and is expected to be accounted for as a pooling of interests.
      The new company will have annual revenues of about $25 billion and will
      assume approximately $1.5 billion of Honeywell debt. The merger, which is
      subject to shareowner approval, regulatory reviews and other conditions,
      is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 1999. The Merger Agreement
      provides for payment of termination fees of up to $350 million under
      certain circumstances.

      In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, AlliedSignal and
      Honeywell entered into (i) a Stock Option Agreement pursuant to which
      AlliedSignal granted Honeywell an option (the "Honeywell Option") to

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income in the second quarter of 1999 was $140.3 million, up 12 percent
from $125.8 million in the second quarter of 1998. Earnings per diluted share
were $1.09 for the quarter, up 11 percent from $0.98 cents in second quarter of
1998. In 1998, second quarter earnings per share included a one-time gain of
$5.6, or $0.03 per diluted share, related to the sale of assets.

Sales in the second quarter were $2.14 billion, up 5 percent, compared with
$2.04 billion a year earlier. Operating profit for the second quarter of 1999
was $252.0 million, compared with $234.0 million in the second quarter of 1998.
Total orders for the second quarter were up 5 percent over the second quarter
of 1998.

SECOND QUARTER BUSINESS UNIT RESULTS

SPACE AND AVIATION CONTROL. Operating profit was $88.9 million, compared to
$78.7 million a year earlier. Profits increased 13 percent, with operating
margins improving from 13.3 percent to 14.4 percent. Space and Aviation
Control's profit growth resulted from a favorable shift in revenue mix toward
business and regional jets and reduced research and development expenditures.

                                                                        Page 13

Sales for Space and Aviation Control grew 5 percent to $619.4 million,
compared with $590.2 million in the second quarter of 1998. The increase in
sales resulted from growth in Commercial Avionics, partly offset by continued
weakness in Space Systems. Orders for the quarter were down 9 percent from
an unusually strong second quarter in 1998.

During the quarter, Space and Aviation was awarded a key engineering and
development contract to retrofit commercial off the shelf display technology
for the C17 military transport aircraft. This order continues to strengthen
our effort to expand commercial technology into upgrade contracts for
military transport aircraft. Also in the quarter, at the Paris Air Show,
Embraer announced that it had received firm option orders for regional
aircraft worth $7 billion and that it would equip those jets with Honeywell
Primus Epic avionics. Raytheon also announced orders for up to 100 Honeywell
controlled Hawker Horizon business jets. The acquisition of MEMS, or
micro-mechanical, gyroscope technology from Boeing was completed in April. This
technology will aid us in the development of future inertial guidance
products.

HOME AND BUILDING CONTROL. Operating profit for the business was $88.3
million compared with $69.1 million last year, a 28 percent increase. Home
and Building Control products, solutions and services' operating profits were
up significantly in the quarter as a result of improved booked margins,
restructuring benefits, and Honeywell Quality Value Operational Excellence
activities.

Sales for Home and Building Control were $855.3 million compared to $788.0
million in the second quarter of 1998. The 9 percent growth in Home and
Building Control's sales was driven by solid growth in control products,
consumer products, building services and total security, offset by a decline
in solutions business.

Home and Building Control orders increased 14 percent, with double-digit
growth in control products, consumer products, building services and total
security, offset by flat performance in the remaining businesses. During the
quarter, Home and Building Control announced the intent to acquire certain
property and assets of C&K Systems business. C&K, a global distributor of
residential and commercial security products with distribution in sixty one
countries and a low cost manufacturing facility in China, has annual revenues
of $100 million. C&K has developed state-of-the-art spread spectrum RF
(radio-frequency) wireless communication technology which is a key element in
developing low cost asset tracking capabilities. The acquisition is expected
to close in September.

INDUSTRIAL CONTROL. Operating profit for Industrial Control was $72.5 million
for the quarter compared with $84.5 million a year earlier. The decrease was
primarily the result of an unfavorable mix of project revenues and price
competition in weak end markets, including pulp and paper, and refining,
where substantial industry consolidation has slowed capital spending.
Additionally, there was a higher than normal mix of large-scale international
projects which tend to carry lower margins than do projects from the more
developed European and North American customer base. Recognizing this
increasingly competitive environment, the Honeywell Measurex worldwide sales
and operating organization will be merged into Industrial Control's existing
global infrastructure. Honeywell anticipates recording charges for severance
and facility consolidations in the third quarter. Substantially all of these
costs are expected to be offset by one-time gains on pending sales of assets.

Industrial Control sales in the second quarter were $645.5 million, compared
with $637.1 million last year. Industrial Control revenue increased 1 percent
as a result of the revenues from acquisitions, offset by a decrease in
industrial automation and control. Industrial Control orders increased 6
percent during the quarter compared to last year. While orders in both the
sensing and control, and industrial automation and control businesses
increased, growth in industrial automation and control was partially offset
by a decline in Honeywell Measurex orders. Key strategic events include two
new product offerings from the Hi-Spec Solutions advanced software business
in industrial control and automation, Business.FLEX Goalsetter and
MyPlant.com. Business.FLEX Goalsetter is a software application for advanced
scheduling and real time supply chain automation in complex manufacturing
environments. MyPlant.com is a web-based community of interests for process
industry customers that will connect Honeywell customers and a broad range of
non-Honeywell suppliers and consultants.

SIX MONTH SUMMARY

<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 14

In the first six months of 1999 Honeywell's net income was $ 245.8 million, up
11 percent from $222.1 million a year earlier. Sales were $ 4.13 billion,
compared with $3.96 billion last year. Earnings per diluted share were $1.92, up
11 percent from $1.73 in the first six months of 1998.

SPACE AND AVIATION CONTROL. Operating Profits generated by Space and Aviation
Control increased 16 percent to $172.2 from $149.0 for the first six months of
the prior year, driven by improvement in commercial aviation businesses. Orders
were down 10 percent, and revenue grew to $1.20 billion, up 6 percent from $1.14
a year earlier.

HOME AND BUILDING CONTROL. Operating profits for the first six months of 1999
increased 18 percent to $148.5 million from $125.9 million a year earlier, as a
result of increases in the control products and building services businesses.
Sales were $1.66 billion compared to $1.57 billion last year. Year to date
orders were up 11 percent, primarily in the products business, from a year
earlier.

INDUSTRIAL CONTROL. Operating profits were $132.8 million, down 8 percent for
the first six months of 1999 compared to $144.9 million a year earlier. The
profit decrease was driven by the industrial automation and control business,
offset by improvement in the sensing and control business. Year to date, orders
were up 5 percent, and revenue was $1.23 billion, up slightly from $1.22 billion
in the first half of 1998.

PROPOSED MERGER On June 4, 1999, Honeywell and AlliedSignal Inc. entered into a
merger agreement. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each share of
Honeywell common stock will be exchanged for 1.875 shares of AlliedSignal Inc.
common stock. At the end of the second quarter of 1999, based on approximately
127 million Honeywell shares outstanding and AlliedSignal's stock price, the
transaction is valued at approximately $15 billion and is expected to be
accounted for as a pooling of interests. The new company will have annual
revenues of about $25 billion and will assume approximately $1.5 billion of
Honeywell debt. The merger agreement is subject to shareowner approval,
regulatory reviews and other conditions, and is expected to close in the fourth
quarter of 1999. The merger agreement provides for payment of termination
fees of up to $350 million under certain circumstances.

Honeywell and AlliedSignal Inc. also have entered into option agreements
pursuant to which, under certain circumstances, AlliedSignal Inc. may purchase
approximately 19.9% of Honeywell's outstanding common stock for $109.453 per
share and Honeywell may purchase approximately 19.9% of AlliedSignal Inc.'s
outstanding common stock for $58.375 per share. Please refer to Note (13 ) to
the Financial Statements set forth in Item 1 of Part I of this report as well as
the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus dated July 23, 1999, of Allied Signal Inc.
and Honeywell Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29,
1999, for further information regarding this matter.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURES

BACKGROUND

Computer programs which were written using two digits (rather than four) to
define the applicable year may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900
rather than the year 2000. This is generally referred to as the "year 2000
issue," which may affect the performance of computer programs, hardware,
software and other products with embedded computer technology that is date
sensitive. Unless corrective action is taken to ensure that such items are "year
2000 ready," which means that they will be able to process dates and times in
such a manner that their technical and functional requirements will continue to
be met without interruption for the year 2000, they may generate erroneous data
or cause systems, equipment or other products to fail.

HONEYWELL'S YEAR 2000 PROGRAM

<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 15

In the fourth quarter of 1995, Honeywell initiated a program to determine
whether or not its business systems, operations and products are year 2000
ready. This program addresses the company's information technology systems and
other systems with embedded computer technology; products provided to customers;
products purchased from suppliers; and most recently, the year 2000 readiness of
its significant customers.

PRODUCT READINESS

Substantially all of Honeywell's current products have been evaluated or tested
internally to ascertain if they are year 2000 ready. Over 99 percent of these
products are year 2000 ready and the remainder will be repaired prior to the end
of the year. In some areas of its businesses, Honeywell is conducting external
integration tests of year 2000 ready products in existing customer systems to
verify that they are compatible with such systems.

Certain older products that are still in use by Honeywell customers and subject
to warranties or service contracts, may not be year 2000 ready. Honeywell has
formally communicated with distributors and direct customers to make them aware
of any potential problems that may result from the use of such products and
encouraging them to modify or replace same, or is providing warranty or contract
service as appropriate. For older products which are not year 2000 ready, and
were sold through distributors or are no longer under warranty or service
contracts, various means are being employed to raise the awareness of any
potential year 2000 problems, including advertising and contracting with
external service providers to help identify current owners.

Honeywell has found a few new year 2000 issues with products previously
identified as ready, however these issues have been resolved and none of them
are considered to be materially significant. Where possible, customers have been
notified directly of any issues and the information has been posted on
Honeywell's web sites.

SUPPLIER READINESS

Honeywell has sent questionnaires to substantially all suppliers who furnish
products or services to the company, to ascertain whether products or services
supplied are year 2000 ready, as well as the effect the year 2000 issue may have
on their ability to continue supplying same. Approximately 3000 suppliers have
been identified by the company as critical to its business and the various
business units are investigating a greater number to verify that critical
supplier products or services will be year 2000 ready. Various methods are being
used to validate supplier readiness, including symposiums, site visits and
telephone interviews. The verification process is expected to be completed
during the third quarter of 1999 and contingency plans will be implemented for
critical suppliers identified to be at risk.

INTERNAL SYSTEMS READINESS

In 1993, prior to the commencement of the Honeywell year 2000 program, the
company implemented a program to upgrade most of its key information technology
(IT) systems to common applications software packages, with completion scheduled
prior to the year 2000. Recent revisions of these packages are marketed as year
2000 ready, however, Honeywell has decided it is necessary to validate that is
true in our environment. While Honeywell expects its critical internal business
systems to be year 2000 ready by third quarter 1999, integration testing of the
software packages may extend beyond that date. The remainder of Honeywell's
business systems which are considered to have a financial or operational impact
on its businesses, are expected to be year 2000 ready by the end of 1999.

The company is still assessing the status of its non-IT systems and making
repairs or upgrades to such systems as necessary. It expects to conclude this
effort during the third quarter of 1999 for critical non-IT systems, and by the
end of 1999 for other non-IT systems which are considered to have a financial or
operational impact on its businesses. Honeywell does not expect the costs
associated with the remediation of non-IT systems to be material, and such costs
are included in the amounts forecasted for contingencies in 1999 as discussed
below under the caption "Costs."

<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 16

CUSTOMER READINESS

Honeywell has evaluated the year 2000 readiness of its most significant
customers, based on volume of business, and is considering the effect, if any,
that the year 2000 issue may have on their requirements for Honeywell's products
and services. Honeywell does not foresee any significant problems in this area,
though no assurance can be given that all information from customers regarding
their readiness and plans is accurate.

RISKS/CONTINGENCY PLANS

Honeywell's products are used in a wide variety of control applications
including, but not limited to, industrial processing control systems, home and
building products and automation control systems, and space and aviation control
systems. In a most likely worst case scenario, if Honeywell's products are not
year 2000 ready, a control application could be disrupted, which could affect
the ability of the system in which it is installed to function properly,
depending on other safeguards. Similarly, if customers are unable to conduct
adequate integration testing of Honeywell's year 2000 ready products within
their equipment or systems, they could experience temporary equipment or systems
failure if compatibility problems arise. While the company does not expect any
worst case scenario to occur, it is working closely with customers of critical
systems to advise them of potential problems and the need to complete systems
integration testing.

If a critical supplier cannot supply products or services to Honeywell that are
year 2000 ready, or if the supplier is adversely affected by the year 2000
issue, that source of supply could be interrupted. This could affect the ability
of Honeywell to supply other products or services, or disrupt a business
operation which is dependent thereon. Furthermore, if a year 2000 issue
affecting a component is not detected by a supplier, it could affect the
performance of the product or system of which it becomes a part and possibly
cause one or more of the scenarios discussed above to occur. To reduce the risk
of such occurrences, Honeywell is taking steps to verify the year 2000 readiness
of all critical suppliers as discussed above under the caption "Supplier
Readiness." In addition, each of Honeywell's business units is developing
contingency plans to identify substitute materials, services and alternate
suppliers.

Honeywell expects that all of its internal applications systems that are
considered to have a financial or operational impact on its businesses, will be
year 2000 ready by the end of 1999. However, if strategy to replace order
management systems in some European countries is not completely executed prior
to the year 2000, there may be difficulty in processing customer orders in such
countries. Contingency plans have been developed to mitigate such risks and will
be implemented if necessary.

Honeywell acquires other companies from time to time as part of its business
development strategy, and it anticipates that acquisitions will continue through
the year 2000. In the course of conducting due diligence investigations of
acquisition candidates, Honeywell endeavors to ascertain whether or not their
products or services, or those of their critical suppliers, are year 2000 ready,
and whether or not such suppliers and key customers, if any, will be adversely
affected by the year 2000 issue. While acquisition candidates may provide
certain information or make representations and warranties regarding year 2000
readiness, in some cases, Honeywell may be unable to verify same until the
acquisition is completed and the steps outlined herein as part of Honeywell's
year 2000 program are undertaken.

COSTS

Honeywell estimates that historical and future costs associated with its year
2000 program will not exceed $60 million for fiscal years 1995 through 1999.
Approximately $20 million in costs have been incurred in fiscal year 1998, and
$30 million has been forecasted for the 1999 fiscal year to cover additional
costs and contingencies. Funding for the 1998 and 1999 costs was previously
forecasted as part of Honeywell's operating expenditures and included in the
company's budgets. Management believes that such costs will not have a material
impact on the operations, cash flows or financial condition of Honeywell and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in future periods.

The preceding "Year 2000 Readiness Disclosures" contain forward-looking
statements of Honeywell's expectations regarding the ability of its products and
systems to be year 2000 ready, as well as its ability to assess the readiness of
its suppliers and customers, and related risks. These statements relate to
future events, the outcome of which is uncertain, and should be read in
conjunction with the cautionary factors listed in Exhibit 99(i) to this report.

EURO CURRENCY

In January 1999, the European Monetary Union (EMU) entered into a three-year
transition phase during which a common currency called the Euro was introduced
in participating countries. Initially, this new currency is being used for
financial transactions, and progressively, it will replace the old national
currencies that will be withdrawn by July 2002. The transition to the Euro
currency will involve changing budgetary, accounting and fiscal systems in
companies and public administrations, as well as the simultaneous handling of
parallel currencies and conversion of legacy data.

UNCERTAINTIES RELATED TO THE EURO CONVERSION

In 1996, Honeywell began studying the ongoing process of European integration,
focussing on issues and opportunities created by the EMU. Task teams were
established to develop Honeywell's Euro strategies and policies. The findings of
these teams have been integrated into our strategic and operational plans. At
this time, there are no significant remaining uncertainties related to the Euro
conversion and no material impact has been identified.

COMPETITIVE IMPLICATIONS

Making a broader European market requires product lines to become more
international and less local. In 1993, Honeywell restructured and its market
focus was changed from a country basis to a European line-of-business approach.
Today, our pricing strategies are largely European, except in those instances
where technical or cultural market characteristics warrant price
differentiation. The expectations of our customers, with respect to the currency
to be used in the transition period have been reflected in our changeover
strategies, resulting in a pro-active dual currency capability since January 1,
1999. The same approach with our suppliers will allow us to benefit from the
increased price transparency on the cost side. Plans are in place, including
shared service centers and consolidation of operations, to pursue the economies
of scale offered by the single European market. We believe converting to the
Euro has no material impact on Honeywell's competitive position.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND OTHER SYSTEMS

Compliance with European Commission regulations concerning conversion,
triangulation and rounding rules related to the Euro introduction, have been
addressed in detailed action plans involving all information systems in all
Honeywell units, both for in-house and purchased systems. The cost of
modification is insignificant, as the action plan builds on new systems
implementation required for shared services and Year 2000 readiness. Timelines
for implementation have been established, adequate resources are available and
contingency plans are in place. We believe converting the information technology
and other systems to the Euro has no material impact on Honeywell.

CURRENCY RISK

With the convergence of short-term interest rates in the EMU countries, observed
during the last two years, the foreign exchange exposure between the currencies
of these countries has diminished considerably. Our foreign exchange exposure
management has systematically been adapted to this evolution, thereby benefiting
from reduced hedging cost. The definitive fixing of the exchange rates will only
make this benefit permanent without creating any other issue or opportunity
other than eliminating the spread on the spot exchange. All balance sheet
exposures between EMU currencies and non-EMU currencies are systematically
hedged from month to month. The functional currency will not change to Euro in
1999 in any of the Honeywell units concerned. Current plans call for functional
currency conversion by year-end 2001. We do not anticipate this change will have
a material impact on

                                                                        Page 18

Honeywell. We believe converting to the Euro has no material impact on
Honeywell's currency exchange cost and/or risk exposure.


SAFE HARBOR CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

Any statements in this report regarding Honeywell's outlook for its businesses
and their respective markets, such as projections of future performance,
statements of management's plans and objectives, forecasts of market trends and
other matters, are forward-looking statements, some of which may be identified
by such words or phrases as "will likely result," "are expected to," "will
continue," "outlook," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project" or similar
expressions. No assurance can be given that the results in any forward-looking
statement will be achieved and actual results could be affected by one or more
factors which could cause them to differ materially. For these statements,
Honeywell claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking
statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The following is a summary of certain factors, the results of which, if markedly
different from Honeywell's planning assumptions, could cause Honeywell's future
results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements contained in this report:

      foreign currency translations of sales denominated in other currencies,
      which may fluctuate adversely based on local currency valuations;

      changes in macroeconomic conditions in those regions throughout the world
      in which Honeywell does business, such as those which have recently
      occurred in Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe, or changes in trade or
      monetary policies, any of which may affect customer demand for the
      company's products and services;

      risks pertaining to performance and energy retrofit contracts, including
      dependence on the performance of third parties;

      various competitive pressures, such as new technologies, industry
      consolidation and deregulation of certain industries;

      the ability of material suppliers or key customers of the Company to
      reduce or eliminate risks to their businesses or operations arising from
      the year 2000 issue;

      availability of intellectual property rights for newly developed products
      or key technologies; and

      significant acquisitions or divestitures.

Please refer to Exhibit 99(i) of this report for a more detailed discussion of
these and other factors that could cause Honeywell's actual results in future
periods to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking
statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Shareowners' equity increased to $2,957 million from $2,786 million at the end
of 1998. Shareowners' equity includes an increase of $172 million in retained
earnings from current year earnings net of dividends, a $61 million decrease in
the accumulated foreign currency translation balance, a $78 million increase in
additional paid in capital, and a $18 million net decrease in treasury stock,
driven by the repurchase of treasury shares.

<PAGE>
                                                                        Page 19

Basic common shares outstanding increased from 126.3 million at the end of 1998
to 127.5 million, primarily as a result of the decrease in the number of shares
repurchased under the company's share repurchase program, since the announcement
of the intended merger between Honeywell and AlliedSignal. During the first six
months of 1999, 715,000 shares were repurchased at a cost of $52 million.
Diluted shares outstanding increased from 127.7 million at year-end 1998 to
130.6 million at the end of June. The repurchased shares are intended to offset
planned issuances under existing employee stock and incentive programs. Shares
issued through stock option and stock bonus plans totaled 1,576,118, up
significantly from 1998, as a number of options are being converted to common
stock as a result of a higher stock price. Proceeds from stock options yielded
$80 million.

Debt as a percentage of total capital at the end of the second quarter was 33
percent, down two percent from the end of 1998. The primary driver of the change
was an increase in additional paid in capital and retained earnings.

During 1998, Honeywell committed itself to a plan of action and recorded
special charges of $53.7 million intended to reduce operating costs and
improve margins. Expenditures of $17.3 million in the second quarter of 1999
included $13.1 million for work force reduction, $0.1 million for facilities
consolidations and $4.1 million for other restructuring activities. For the
first six months, expenditures totaled $30.4, consisting of $24.0 million for
work force reduction, $ 1.3 for facility consolidations and $5.1 million for
other restructuring activities. Additionally in 1997, special charges of
$90.7 million were recorded. Expenditures of $3.1 million in the second
quarter of 1999 included $1.7 million for work force reduction, $0.3 million
for facilities consolidations and $1.1 million for other restructuring
activities. For the first six months, expenditures totaled $10.9, consisting
of $3.7 million for work force reduction, $ 6.0 for facility consolidations
and $1.2 million for other restructuring activities. The remaining balance of
restructuring reserves is $19.8 million for the 1998 charges and $5.9 million
for the 1997 charges. Accrued costs remaining will be funded with cash flows
from operating activities in 1999.

Net cash flow generated by operating activities for the first six months was
$254.6 million. Net cash flows used by investing activities exceeded net cash
generated by $31.9 million, primarily due to capital expenditures and
investments in acquisitions. The primary investing activities of investments in
capital and acquisitions were funded by cash generated from operations and
proceeds from the sale of assets.

At the end of the quarter, Honeywell had $1,325 million of committed revolving
credit lines with 17 banks. There were no outstanding borrowings against these
lines on July 4, 1999. In addition, certain foreign units had $277 million in
credit lines available at the end of the second quarter. Honeywell believes its
available cash, committed credit lines and access to the public debt markets
through commercial paper and medium-term note programs provide adequate
short-term and long-term liquidity.

As of July 4, 1999, Honeywell's credit ratings for long-term and short-term
debt, respectively, were A/A-1 by Standard and Poor's Corporation, A/D-1 by Duff
and Phelps Credit Rating Co. and A2/P-1 by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.

Honeywell has entered into various foreign currency exchange contracts and
interest rate swaps to manage its net exposure to changes in currency and
interest rate fluctuation. As of July 4, 1999, the notional amount of
outstanding foreign exchange contracts was approximately $1.1 billion. The
amount of hedging gains and losses deferred was not material at July 4, 1999.
The notional amount of outstanding interest rate swaps was $1.25 billion at July
4, 1999.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         As previously reported in Item 3. "Legal Proceedings" of Part I of
         Honeywell's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
         December 31, 1998, Honeywell is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by
         Litton Systems, Inc. alleging patent infringement relating to the
         process used by Honeywell to coat mirrors incorporated in its ring
         laser gyroscopes; attempted monopolization by Honeywell of certain
         alleged markets for products containing ring laser gyroscopes; and
         intentional interference by Honeywell with Litton's prospective
         advantage in European markets and with its contractual relationships
         with Ojai Research, Inc., a California corporation.

         The information reported in Note (6) to the Financial Statements set
         forth in Item 1 of Part I of this report with respect to recent
         developments in this litigation is incorporated by reference into this
         Item 1.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

         At the Annual Meeting of Shareowners of Honeywell Inc. in Minneapolis
         on April 20, 1999, three proposals were submitted to a vote of the
         shareowners.

         The first was a proposal to elect directors for the year commencing
         April 21, 1999. A majority of the shares represented by proxy or in
         person at the meeting were voted in favor of electing management's
         nominees for directors as follows:

                  regarding an employment agreement which will be entered into
                  between Michael R. Bonsignore and AlliedSignal Inc. pursuant

<PAGE>

                                                                   EXHIBIT 99(i)

                              CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
                  FOR PURPOSES OF THE SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS OF
              THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

Honeywell Inc. ("Honeywell" or the "Company") may occasionally make statements
regarding its businesses and their respective markets, such as projections of
future performance, statements of management's plans and objectives, future
contracts, forecasts of market trends and other matters, which to the extent
they are not historical fact, may constitute "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements
containing the words or phrases "will likely result", "are expected to," "will
continue," "outlook," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project" or similar
expressions, which may appear in certain documents, reports (including but not
limited to those filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission), press
releases, and written or oral presentations made by officers of the Company to
analysts, shareholders, investors, news organizations and others, identify such
forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that the results in any
forward-looking statements will be achieved and actual results could be affected
by one or more factors which could cause them to differ materially. Therefore,
Honeywell wishes to ensure that any written or oral forward-looking statements
made by it or on its behalf, are accompanied by, or referenced to, meaningful
cautionary statements in order to maximize to the fullest extent possible the
protections of the safe harbor established in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.

All forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Honeywell are hereby
qualified in their entirety by reference to the following important factors,
among others, that could affect the Company's businesses and cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected. Any forward-looking statement
speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and Honeywell
undertakes no obligation to update such statement to reflect events or
circumstances arising after such date.

FOREIGN SALES. A significant portion of Honeywell's revenues are generated from
international business operations. Changes in trade, monetary policies and
regulatory requirements of the United States and other nations (e.g. the
adoption of the EURO currency by the European Monetary Union), as well as
political instability in certain regions may affect Honeywell's international
business. Many of Honeywell's sales outside the United States are denominated in
local currencies; therefore, exchange rate fluctuations may affect overall
financial performance.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT. Performance related programs and retrofit projects have
increasingly become an integral part of Honeywell's businesses. The success of
some of these programs may depend in part on the performance of third parties.
Honeywell manages its businesses in such a manner as to minimize the potential
impact of performance; nonetheless, bid variances, third party labor disputes,
and the availability, quality and timely delivery of supplies are factors that
could affect the Company's ability to manage these programs within their
budgetary guidelines.

COMPETITION. Honeywell's businesses are subject to various competitive
pressures, including but not limited to, the introduction of new competitive
technologies, industry consolidation, the growing acceptance of open systems
environments and the deregulation of certain industries. Developments in these
areas may influence Honeywell's strategies in certain markets and create new
challenges or opportunities.

HUMAN RESOURCES. Innovative products and solutions are continuously developed by
Honeywell's businesses for application in the markets they serve. Highly trained
technical and managerial employees are required for this effort, and Honeywell's
ability to manage its businesses successfully depends, in part, on its ability
to attract and retain such people. Shortages of skilled personnel or negative
compensation trends are factors that can affect the availability of such people
or increase Honeywell's costs in attracting and retaining employees. In certain
foreign markets, local labor rates and practices may affect Honeywell's
operating costs or its ability to conduct business in such areas.

                                      iii


<PAGE>

                                                                        Page 2

REGULATORY ORGANIZATIONS. In many of the domestic and foreign markets in which
Honeywell competes, such as aviation, building control, processing and refining,
government regulation is extensive. Compliance with safety or environmental
standards may impact Honeywell in those markets by increasing Honeywell's costs
or alternately, by providing opportunities for Honeywell to provide solutions
for customers affected thereby.

Also, certain other regulatory organizations such as the Financial Accounting
Standards Board and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, may
from time to time, promulgate rules and regulations which may impact Honeywell's
accounting policies in the U.S. and abroad.

TECHNOLOGY. Honeywell's products and services are based on innovative
technologies developed by the Company or licensed from others. To the extent the
Company can secure intellectual property protection for products it develops, it
may be able to enhance its competitive position in certain markets. Honeywell's
ability to obtain licenses from third parties for other key technologies, or to
develop new technologies or solutions independently or through collaborative
efforts can impact the Company's businesses.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURES. Honeywell has established a year 2000 program
to evaluate and deal with issues which may arise and affect its products,
services, businesses and operations as a result of the year 2000 issue. To the
extent Honeywell is unable to successfully execute the strategies set forth in
that program, or if one or more of such efforts fail, the Company could face
product liability claims from certain customers, or disruption of its businesses
or operations. Similarly, if a critical supplier is unable to remedy its year
2000 issues, that source of supply for a product or service critical to a
particular Honeywell business, could be disrupted and affect the ability of that
business to conduct its operations or provide certain products or services to
customers. Please refer to the information set forth under the caption "Year
2000 Readiness Disclosures" in Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for a more in-depth discussion of
year 2000 risks and uncertainties which could affect the Company's businesses.

CUSTOMER TRENDS. The demand for Honeywell's products is subject to the demands
in major customer markets. For example, the requirements of major airlines for
new aircraft may affect the demand for avionics and cockpit controls produced by
Honeywell's Space and Aviation Control business; new construction or
modernization activity, or unseasonable weather patterns may influence the
demand for products and services provided by the Home and Building Control
business; the demand for new or modernized processing plants in certain
industrial sector markets may affect Honeywell's Industrial Control business.
Adverse fluctuations in the prices of commodities produced or used by the
Honeywell's customers in their operations, as well as the availability of credit
markets in the United States and other regions of the world to the Company's
customers, may affect their ability to purchase Honeywell's products and
services. The Company endeavors to forecast such trends, but unforeseen general
economic conditions in the United States and internationally, such as those
which have recently occurred in Asia, Latin America and eastern Europe, as well
as industry specific factors, may affect such forecasts.

To the extent a key customer of Honeywell is affected by the year 2000 issue,
that customer's demand for the products or services of Honeywell could also be
affected.

CHARGES RESULTING FROM ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES. Honeywell continually
evaluates the growth potential and profitability of its existing businesses, and
equity and other investments. When deemed appropriate, Honeywell will acquire
new businesses to expand its product offerings, increase or decrease its
investments, and divest assets (e.g., buildings, product lines, etc.) and
existing businesses which are no longer considered a strategic fit or do not
continue to create value consistent with the Company's objectives. Decisions to
sell assets or divest businesses could result in future gains or charges
depending on the circumstances.

The foregoing factors are not exhaustive and new factors may emerge which impact
Honeywell's businesses. It is impossible for management to predict such factors,
therefore, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction
of actual future results.
