All Change at Raytheon as United Technologies Merger Completes

The merger between Raytheon Company and United Technologies Corporation was finalized on April 3, following the completion by United Technologies (UTC) of its previously announced spin-offs of its Carrier and Otis businesses. 

The merged defense behemoth is now listed on the New York Stock Exchange as Raytheon Technologies Corporation, under the ticker RTX.

With the merger, UTC shareholders owned 57 percent of Raytheon Technologies, and UTC will control eight of the 15 board seats. Tom Kennedy will serve as executive chairman, Greg Hayes as CEO and Toby O’Brien as chief financial officer.

Raytheon Technologies becomes one of the largest aerospace and defense companies in the world with approximately $74 billion in pro forma 2019 net sales and a global team of 195,000 employees, including 60,000 engineers and scientists.

“Raytheon Technologies brings together two companies with combined strengths and capabilities that make us uniquely equipped to support our customers and partners during this unprecedented time. We will also play our part in the war on the COVID-19 pandemic, including doing everything we can to keep our employees around the globe safe and well,” said Greg Hayes, CEO of Raytheon Technologies.
