Johnson Controls removed two legacy risks in 2023 - the COVID-19 pandemic impact and debt rating downgrade concerns - while adding four new risk factors emphasizing product quality, internal control weaknesses, sustainability commitments, and trade policy vulnerabilities. The company substantially modified ten existing risks, including those addressing industry cyclicality, macroeconomic conditions, and regulatory compliance, suggesting intensified concerns in these areas. Overall, the 42 total risks reflect a strategic shift from pandemic-specific exposures toward operational execution, governance, and geopolitical factors.
