Restructuring Costs

Restructuring costs are generally expensed as incurred. All U.S. government unallowable restructuring costs related to the Raytheon Merger are recorded within Corporate expenses and other unallocated items, as these costs are not included in management’s evaluation of the segments’ performance, and as a result, there are no unallowable restructuring costs at the RIS and RMD segments. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring costs totaling $56 million and $99 million, respectively, for new and ongoing restructuring actions.

We recorded and reversed charges in the segments as follows:

(dollars in millions)	Quarter Ended June 30, 2021		Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Pratt & Whitney	$	(16)	$	4
Collins Aerospace Systems	12		30
Corporate expenses and other unallocated items	60		65
Total	$	56	$	99

Restructuring charges incurred during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relate to actions initiated during 2021 and 2020, and were recorded as follows:

(dollars in millions)	Quarter Ended June 30, 2021		Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Cost of sales	$	1	$	21
Selling, general and administrative	55		78
Total	$	56	$	99

2021 Actions. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring costs of $65 million, comprised of $61 million in Selling, general and administrative expenses and $4 million in Cost of sales. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring costs of $101 million, comprised of $76 million in Selling, general and administrative expenses and $25 million in Cost of sales. The 2021 actions primarily relate to ongoing cost reduction efforts including workforce reductions and the consolidation of facilities.

We are targeting to complete the majority of the remaining workforce and facility related cost reduction actions during 2021 and 2022.

2020 Actions. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, we reversed a net $24 million of pre-tax restructuring costs for restructuring actions initiated in 2020, including a reversal of $18 million in Selling, general and administrative expenses and a reversal of $6 million in Cost of sales. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we reversed $20 million net pre-tax restructuring costs for restructuring actions initiated in 2020, including a reversal of $12 million in Selling, general and administrative expenses and a reversal of $8 million in Cost of sales. The 2020 actions primarily relate to severance and restructuring actions at Pratt & Whitney and Collins Aerospace in response to the impact on our operating results related to the economic environment primarily caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Raytheon Merger, and ongoing cost reduction efforts including workforce reductions and consolidation of field operations.
