UNITED TECHNOLOGIES
Otis and Pratt Make Progress
United Technologies Corp. reported higher quarterly sales as the conglomerate makes progress righting its elevator unit and ramping jet engine production to historically high levels.
Net sales rose 1.3% to $14.87 billion, with a 1% increase in organic sales, prompting the company to boost the lower end of its full-year revenue forecast and raise its adjusted earnings per share expectation.
The strong quarter comes in a tumultuous period for United Technologies. Chief Executive Gregory Hayes warded off a $90 billion takeover bid from rival Honeywell International Inc. earlier in the year. That attempt came amid Mr. Hayes's struggle to revive growth at Otis, the legacy elevator and escalator maker. At the same time, Pratt & Whitney is overhauling its manufacturing operation.
Profit for the period fell to $1.37 billion, down 11% from the prior year. The company raised its guidance for adjusted earnings per share of between $6.45 and $6.60, increasing the low end from $6.30.
It expects revenue of $57 billion to $58 billion, up from $56 billion to $58 billion previously.

AK STEEL HOLDING
Quarterly Profit Reverses Loss
AK Steel Holding Corp. swung to a second-quarter profit as the steelmaker reduced its exposure to spot prices and focused on more profitable coated products.
The West Chester, Ohio, company's shipments declined 14% to roughly 1.55 million tons for the latest quarter, compared with 1.81 million tons a year earlier. Selling prices per ton improved 2.8% to $957 a ton, compared with $931 a ton a year earlier.
U.S. steelmakers have been starting to benefit from U.S. tariffs on steel imports.
Over all, AK Steel reported a profit of $17.3 million, or 8 cents a share, compared with a year-earlier loss of $64 million, or 36 cents a share.
The latest period included a tax benefit of $106 million. Revenue decreased 12% to $1.49 billion, mostly owing to lower automotive contract pricing as well as a decrease in shipments.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected per-share loss of 2 cents and revenue of $1.53 billion.
