1. Business Description and Basis of Presentation

Rockwell Collins, Inc. (the Company or Rockwell Collins) provides design, production and support of communications and aviation electronics solutions for commercial and military customers worldwide.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2005, including the financial statements in Exhibit 13 incorporated by reference in the Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of adjustments of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

2. New Accounting Standards

Effective October 1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which requires the Company to measure and recognize as compensation, the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. See Note 12 for information regarding the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R.

In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 (FIN 47). FIN 47 provides clarification with respect to the timing of liability recognition for conditional asset retirement obligations when the timing and/or method of settlement of the obligation are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. FIN 47 also clarifies when a company would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than September 30, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FIN 47 on the Company’s financial statements.

3. Acquisitions

In February 2006, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire certain assets and liabilities related to the simulation business of Evans & Sutherland in a $72 million cash transaction. Evans & Sutherland is a leading provider of visual simulation solutions for military and commercial customers. The transaction is still subject to customary closing conditions, including approval from Evans & Sutherland shareholders, and is expected to close during the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company does not expect the acquisition to materially affect the Company’s results of operations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2006.

On March 31, 2005, the Company acquired 100 percent of the stock of TELDIX GmbH, a leading provider of military aviation electronics products and services, based in Heidelberg, Germany (TELDIX). TELDIX supplies a broad portfolio of complex military aircraft computer products, advanced mechanical space mechanisms and related support services primarily to major prime contractors throughout Europe. The acquisition of TELDIX broadens the Company’s European presence and provides complementary product lines that will allow the Company to enhance its offerings to customers worldwide and should provide new channel-to-market opportunities for the Company’s current products and services. In 2006, the purchase price and purchase price allocation were finalized. The purchase price, net of cash acquired, was $19 million of which $45 million was allocated to goodwill and $15 million to finite lived intangible assets with a weighted average life of approximately 11 years. The excess purchase price over net assets acquired reflects the Company’s view that there are opportunities to expand its market share in the European region. Approximately 18 percent of the goodwill resulting from this acquisition is tax deductible. Goodwill is included within the assets of the Government Systems segment.

Total		761			747
Less allowance for doubtful accounts		(12	)		(11	)
Receivables	$	749		$	736

As of March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, the portion of receivables outstanding that are not expected to be collected within the next twelve months is approximately $5 million and $3 million, respectively.

Unbilled receivables principally represent sales recorded under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting that have not been billed to customers in accordance with applicable contract terms.

5. Inventories

Inventories are summarized as follows (in millions):

	March 31, 2006			September 30, 2005
Finished goods	$	150		$	162
Work in process		286			272
Raw materials, parts, and supplies		330			319
Total		766			753
Less progress payments		(59	)		(75	)
Inventories	$	707		$	678

The Company defers certain pre-production engineering costs as work-in-process inventory in connection with long-term supply arrangements that contain contractual guarantees for reimbursement from customers. Such customer guarantees typically take the form of a minimum order quantity with quantified reimbursement amounts if the minimum order quantity is not taken by the customer. Deferred pre-production engineering costs were $80 million and $68 million at March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively.

In accordance with industry practice, inventories include amounts which are not expected to be realized within one year. These amounts primarily relate to life-time buy inventory and certain pre-production engineering costs. Life-time buy inventory is inventory that is typically no longer being produced by the Company’s vendors but for which multiple years of supply are purchased in order to meet production and service requirements over the life span of a product. Inventory not expected to be realized within one year is $141 million and $146 million at March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively.

During the six months ended March 31, 2005, the Company made $4 million of contributions to its non-qualified pension plans. The Company is not required to make any contributions to its U.S. qualified pension plans in 2006 pursuant to governmental regulations and current projections indicate that none will be required in 2007; however, future funding requirements are difficult to estimate as such estimates are dependent upon market returns, interest rates, and changes to current regulations. The Company currently has no plans to make additional discretionary contributions to its U.S. qualified pension plans in 2006. Contributions to the Company’s non-qualified and international pension plans are expected to approximate $11 million in 2006.

Other Retirement Benefits

12. Stock-Based Compensation

Adoption of SFAS 123R

Prior to October 1, 2005, the Company accounted for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). Under the intrinsic value method, compensation expense is recorded for the excess of the stock’s quoted market price at the time of grant over the amount an employee had to pay to acquire the stock. As the Company’s various incentive plans require stock options to be granted at prices equal to or above the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant dates, no compensation expense was recorded prior to October 1, 2005 under the intrinsic value method.

ROCKWELL COLLINS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The Company has adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective method as of October 1, 2005. Under this method, stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 includes the requisite service period portion of the grant date fair value of: (a) all awards of equity instruments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of September 30, 2005; and (b) all awards of equity instruments granted subsequent to September 30, 2005. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Total stock-based compensation expense included within the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 is as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2006		Six Months Ended March 31, 2006
Stock-based compensation expense included in:
Product cost of sales	$	1	$	2
Service cost of sales		1		1
Selling, general and administrative expenses		3		6
Income before income taxes	$	5	$	9
Net income	$	3	$	6
Basic and diluted earnings per share	$	0.02	$	0.03

For the full year 2006, the Company expects the adoption of SFAS 123R will reduce basic and diluted earnings per share by approximately 6 cents. In accordance with the modified prospective adoption method of SFAS 123R, financial results for the prior periods have not been restated.

Stock-Based Compensation Program Description

Under the Company’s 2001 Long-Term Incentives Plan and Directors Stock Plan, up to 14.3 million shares of common stock may be issued by the Company as non-qualified options, incentive stock options, performance units, performance shares, stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock. Shares available for future grant or payment under these plans were 0.5 million at March 31, 2006.

Under the Company’s 2006 Long-Term Incentives Plan (2006 LTIP Plan), up to 11.0 million shares of common stock may be issued by the Company as non-qualified options, incentive stock options, performance units, performance shares, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalent rights, and other awards. Each share issued pursuant to an award of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units counts as three shares against the authorized limit. Shares available for future grant or payment under this plan were 10.9 million at March 31, 2006.

Options to purchase common stock of the Company have been granted under various incentive plans to directors, officers and other key employees. All of the Company’s stock-based incentive plans require options to be granted at prices equal to or above the fair market value of the common stock on the dates the options are granted. The plans provide that the option price for certain options granted under the plans may be paid by the employee in cash, shares of common stock, or a combination thereof. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. Stock options generally expire ten years from the date they are granted and generally vest ratably over three years.

Historically, the Company has utilized stock options as the primary component of the Company’s stock-based incentive plans for officers and other key employees. In 2006, the Company elected to use fewer stock options as part of the long-term incentive plans and introduce multi-year performance shares and restricted stock. Both the performance shares and restricted stock cliff vest at the end of three years. The number of performance shares that will ultimately be issued is based on targets for fiscal years 2006 through 2008 that consider cumulative sales growth and return on sales with an additional potential adjustment up or down depending on the Company’s total return to shareowners compared to a group of peer companies. The Company’s stock-based compensation awards are designed to align management’s interests with those of our shareowners and to reward outstanding company performance. The Company’s stock-based compensation awards serve as an important retention tool because the awards generally vest over a three-year period.

(Unaudited)

During the six months ended March 31, 2006, the Company granted 77,344 performance shares at target levels, 55,275 restricted shares, and 10,524 restricted stock units. The maximum number of performance shares that can be issued based on the target levels for fiscal years 2006 through 2008 is 185,626. The weighted-average grant date fair value of the performance shares, restricted shares, and restricted units granted during the six months ended March 31, 2006 was $45.44 per share. As of March 31, 2006, there was $4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the performance shares and $2 million related to the restricted shares, which is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.6 years.

Pro Forma Information for Periods Prior to Fiscal 2006

Stock Option Fair Value Information

The Company’s determination of fair value of option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These factors include, but are not limited to; the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, the projected employee stock option exercise term, the expected dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate. Changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value of the stock options.

The fair value of each option granted by the Company was estimated using a binomial lattice pricing model and the following assumptions:

	2006 Grants		2005 Grants
Risk-free interest rate (U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues)	4.38	%	3.55	%
Expected dividend yield	1.08	%	1.50	%
Expected volatility	0.30		0.30
Expected life	5 years		5 years

The Company’s shares have only been publicly traded since the Company’s spin-off from Rockwell International on June 29, 2001. As a result, the Company cannot evaluate historical volatility prior to June 29, 2001. To estimate expected volatility for the Company’s stock options, the Company considered its own volatility since the spin-off as well as the expected volatility of similar public companies.

The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. The binomial lattice model assumes that employees’ exercise behavior is a function of the option’s remaining expected life and the extent to which the option is in-the-money. The binomial lattice model estimates the probability of exercise as a function of these two variables based on the entire history of exercises and forfeitures on all past option grants made by the Company.

Employee Benefits Paid in Company Stock

During the six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, 0.5 million and 0.9 million shares, respectively, of Company common stock were issued to employees under the Company’s employee stock purchase and defined contribution savings plans at a value of $25 million and $31 million for the respective periods.

15. Income Taxes

At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate. Tax items included in the annual effective tax rate are pro-rated for the full year and tax items discrete to a specific quarter are included in the effective tax rate for that quarter. The estimate used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis may change in subsequent interim periods. During the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the effective income tax rate was 29.6 percent and 28.6 percent, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the effective income tax rate was 30.8 percent and 29.4 percent, respectively.

On January 9, 2006, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its tax return audits, other than for the Extraterritorial Income Exclusion, for 2002 and 2003. The completion of the IRS audits did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

The Company paid income taxes, net of refunds, of $124 million and $42 million during the six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

16. Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows (in millions):

ROCKWELL COLLINS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximate its carrying value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for debt with similar terms and maturities.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments in the form of interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage interest rate risk and foreign currency risk, respectively. The Company’s policy is to execute such instruments with creditworthy financial institutions and not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

On November 20, 2003, the Company entered into two interest rate swap contracts (the Swaps) which expire on December 1, 2013 and effectively converted $100 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes to floating rate debt based on six-month LIBOR less 7.5 basis points. The Company has designated the Swaps as fair value hedges. Accordingly, the fair values of the Swaps are recorded in Other Assets or Other Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the carrying value of the underlying debt is adjusted by an equal amount. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is based on quoted market prices for contracts with similar maturities.

Foreign currency forward exchange contracts provide for the purchase or sale of foreign currencies at specified future dates at specified exchange rates and are used to offset changes in the fair value of certain assets or liabilities or forecasted cash flows resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies. At March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, the Company had outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts with notional amounts of $226 million and $234 million, respectively. These notional values consist primarily of contracts for the European euro, British pound sterling and Japanese yen, and are stated in U.S. dollar equivalents at spot exchange rates at the respective dates.

Accelerated Share Repurchase

In April 2006, the Company executed an accelerated share repurchase agreement with an investment bank under which 2 million shares of the Company’s outstanding common shares were repurchased for an initial price of $111 million, or $55.44 per share. The initial purchase price will be subject to a purchase price adjustment based on the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s shares, less a discount, over a subsequent period of time that ends no later than June 30, 2006.

17. Guarantees and Indemnifications

Product warranty costs

Accrued liabilities are recorded to reflect the Company’s contractual obligations relating to warranty commitments to customers. Warranty coverage of various lengths and terms is provided to customers depending on standard offerings and negotiated contractual agreements. An estimate for warranty expense is recorded at the time of sale based on the length of the warranty and historical warranty return rates and repair costs.

Changes in the carrying amount of accrued product warranty costs are summarized as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Balance at beginning of year	$	172		$	154

Lease Guarantee

The Company guarantees fifty percent of a lease obligation for a RSC facility. The Company’s portion of the guarantee totals $2 million at March 31, 2006 and expires ratably through December 2011. Should RSC fail to meet its lease obligations, this guarantee may become a liability of the Company. This guarantee is not reflected as a liability on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Letters of credit

The Company has contingent commitments in the form of commercial letters of credit. Outstanding letters of credit are issued by banks on the Company’s behalf to support certain contractual obligations to its customers. If the Company fails to meet these contractual obligations, these letters of credit may become liabilities of the Company. Total outstanding letters of credit at March 31, 2006 were $99 million. These commitments are not reflected as liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Indemnifications

The Company enters into indemnifications with lenders, counterparties in transactions such as administration of employee benefit plans, and other customary indemnifications with third parties in the normal course of business. The following are other than customary indemnifications based on the judgment of management.

In connection with agreements for the sale of portions of its business, the Company at times retains the liabilities of a business of varying amounts which relate to events occurring prior to its sale, such as tax, environmental, litigation and employment matters. The Company at times indemnifies the purchaser of a Rockwell Collins’ business in the event that a third party asserts a claim that relates to a liability retained by the Company.

The Company also provides indemnifications of varying scope and amounts to certain customers against claims of product liability or intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the use of Company or customer products or intellectual property. These indemnifications generally require the Company to compensate the other party for certain damages and costs incurred as a result of third party product liability or intellectual property claims arising from these transactions.

The amount the Company could be required to pay under its indemnification agreements is generally limited based on amounts specified in the underlying agreements, or in the case of some agreements, the maximum potential amount of future payments that could be required is not limited. When a potential claim is asserted under these agreements, the Company considers such factors as the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of loss. A liability is recorded when a potential claim is both probable and estimable. The nature of these agreements prevents the Company from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount it could be required to pay should counterparties to these agreements assert a claim; however, the Company currently has no material claims pending related to such agreements.

18. Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to federal, state and local regulations relating to the discharge of substances into the environment, the disposal of hazardous wastes, and other activities affecting the environment that have had and will continue to have an impact on the Company’s manufacturing operations. These environmental protection regulations may require the investigation and remediation of environmental impairments at current and previously owned or leased properties. In addition, lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been asserted on occasion against the Company alleging violations of environmental protection regulations, or seeking remediation of alleged environmental impairments, principally at previously owned or leased properties. The Company is currently involved in the investigation or remediation of ten sites under these regulations or pursuant to lawsuits asserted by third parties. Certain of these sites relate to properties purchased in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Kaiser Aerospace & Electronics Corporation (Kaiser). Rockwell Collins has certain rights to indemnification from escrow funds set aside at the time of acquisition that management believes are sufficient to address the Company’s potential liability related to the Kaiser related environmental matters. As of March 31, 2006, management estimates that the total reasonably possible future costs the Company could incur from these matters to be approximately $11 million. The Company has recorded environmental reserves for these matters of $4 million as of March 31, 2006, which represents management’s best estimate of the probable future cost for these matters.

To date, compliance with environmental regulations and resolution of environmental claims has been accomplished without material effect on the Company’s liquidity and capital resources, competitive position or financial condition. Management believes that expenditures for environmental capital investment and remediation necessary to comply with present regulations governing environmental protection and other expenditures for the resolution of environmental claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial position, but could possibly be material to the results of operations or cash flows of any one period.

19. Legal Matters

The Company is subject to various lawsuits, claims and proceedings that have been or may be instituted or asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of the Company’s business, including those pertaining to product liability, intellectual property, environmental, safety and health, contract, employment and regulatory matters. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and some lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the Company, management believes the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial position, but could possibly be material to the results of operations or cash flows of any one period.

20. Business Segment Information

The sales and results of operations of the Company’s operating segments are summarized as follows (in millions):

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following management discussion and analysis is based on financial results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Item 1 of Part I of this quarterly report.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005

Sales

(dollars in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Total sales	$	957		$	829
Percent increase		15	%

Total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased 15 percent to $957 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005. TELDIX, acquired on March 31, 2005, contributed $21 million or 2 percentage points of the revenue growth. Government Systems sales increased 20 percent compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to continued strong demand from the U.S. Government for defense related products and the incremental TELDIX sales. Commercial Systems sales increased 10 percent compared to the same period last year due primarily to higher production rates for new air transport and business aircraft. See the following operating segment sections for further discussion of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.

Net Income and Diluted Earnings Per Share

(dollars in millions, except per share amounts)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Net income	$	114		$	95
Net income as a percent of sales		11.9	%		11.5	%
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.65		$	0.52

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased 20 percent to $114 million, or 11.9 percent of sales, from net income of $95 million, or 11.5 percent of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was 65 cents compared to 52 cents for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in net income and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period last year was primarily the result of a combination of increased sales volume, productivity improvements, and lower incentive compensation costs, which more than offset higher pension costs, higher research and development expenditures, and expensing stock-based compensation. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 also benefited from our share repurchase program.

Government Systems Financial Results

Government Systems’ Sales

The following table presents Government Systems’ sales by product category:

(dollars in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Defense electronics	$	358		$	287
Defense communications		155			139
Total	$	513		$	426
Percent increase		20	%

Defense electronics sales increased $71 million, or 25 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005. Incremental sales from TELDIX, acquired on March 31, 2005, provided $21 million of this sales growth. The organic sales growth is due primarily to significantly higher revenues related to ground force navigation products. In addition, higher revenues from electronics systems upgrade programs for various fixed and rotary-wing military aircraft and helmet mounted tactical aircraft display programs more than offset lower simulation and training revenues primarily due to the timing of contract awards.

Defense communications sales increased $16 million, or 12 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period last year as higher revenues from advanced data link and other transformational defense communications development programs.

Government Systems’ Segment Operating Earnings

(dollars in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Segment operating earnings	$	100		$	76
Percent of sales		19.5	%		17.8	%

Government Systems’ operating earnings increased 32 percent to $100 million, or 19.5 percent of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to operating earnings of $76 million, or 17.8 percent of sales, for the same period a year ago. The higher operating earnings and operating margin were primarily attributable to a combination of increased sales volume and the impact of productivity improvements as well as favorable production volume mix and lower incentive compensation costs, partially offset by higher pension costs and lower margin TELDIX revenues.

Commercial Systems Financial Results

Commercial Systems’ Sales

The following table presents Commercial Systems’ sales by product category:

(dollars in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Air transport aviation electronics	$	243		$	222
Business and regional aviation electronics		201			181
Total	$	444		$	403
Percent increase		10	%

Air transport aviation electronics sales increased $21 million, or 9 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005. This sales growth is primarily attributed to higher sales of flight-deck avionics due to accelerating original equipment manufacturer (OEM) deliveries partially offset by lower in-flight entertainment revenues.

19

Business and regional aviation electronic sales increased $20 million, or 11 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in the prior year. This sales growth is attributed to higher sales of flight-deck avionics and cabin electronics systems and products partially offset by lower regional jet avionics sales.

The following table presents Commercial Systems’ sales based on the type of product or service:

(in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006		2005
Original equipment	$	225	$	185
Aftermarket		219		218
Total	$	444	$	403

Original equipment sales increased $40 million, or 22 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in the prior year. This sales growth is attributed to higher sales of flight-deck avionics for new air transport aircraft and higher sales of flight-deck avionics and cabin electronics systems and products for new business jet aircraft as a result of accelerating air transport and business jet production rates partially offset by lower regional jet avionics sales.

Aftermarket sales increased $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005. A sharp decline in regulatory mandate program revenues and lower in-flight entertainment retrofit revenues offset a 13 percent increase in other core aftermarket activities, with particular strength in retrofit, spares and business and regional aircraft service and support activities.

Commercial Systems’ Segment Operating Earnings

(dollars in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Segment operating earnings	$	86		$	73
Percent of sales		19.4	%		18.1	%

Commercial Systems’ operating earnings increased 18 percent to $86 million, or 19.4 percent of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to operating earnings of $73 million, or 18.1 percent of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in segment operating earnings is attributable primarily to the increase in sales volume, productivity improvements, and lower incentive compensation costs, partially offset by higher research and development expenditures, higher pension costs, and a decline in higher margin regulatory mandate revenues compared to the prior year.

Six Months Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005

Sales

(dollars in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31

Total sales for the six months ended March 31, 2006 increased 15 percent to $1,838 million compared to the six months ended March 31, 2005. TELDIX, acquired on March 31, 2005, contributed $44 million of the revenue growth. Government Systems sales increased 21 percent compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to continued strong demand from the U.S. Government for defense related products and the incremental TELDIX sales. Commercial Systems sales increased 10 percent compared to the same period last year due primarily to higher production rates for new air transport and business aircraft.

Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2006 increased 18 percent to $218 million, or 11.9 percent of sales, from net income of $185 million, or 11.6 percent of sales, for the six months ended March 31, 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended March 31, 2006 was $1.24 compared to $1.02 for the six months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in net income and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period last year was primarily the result of a combination of increased sales volume, productivity improvements, and lower incentive compensation costs, which more than offset higher pension costs, higher research and development expenditures, expensing stock-based compensation, and a higher effective tax rate. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended March 31, 2006 also benefited from our share repurchase program.

Defense electronics sales increased $147 million, or 27 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2005. Incremental sales from TELDIX, acquired on March 31, 2005, provided 8 percentage points of this sales growth. The organic sales growth is due primarily to significantly higher revenues related to ground force navigation products. In addition, higher revenues from electronics systems upgrade programs for various fixed and rotary-wing military aircraft and helmet mounted tactical aircraft display programs more than offset lower simulation and training revenues primarily due to the timing of contract awards.

Defense communications sales increased $23 million, or 9 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2005 as higher revenues from advanced data link and other transformational defense communications development programs more than offset lower Joint Tactical Radio System development program revenues.

Government Systems’ operating earnings increased $47 million, or 32 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006, compared to the same period a year ago primarily due to increased sales volume. The higher operating earnings and operating margin were attributable to the combination of the higher sales and lower operating expenses as a percent of sales primarily as a result of productivity improvements and lower incentive compensation costs. These improvements more than offset the impact of higher pension costs and lower margin TELDIX revenues.

Commercial Systems Financial Results

Commercial Systems’ Sales

The following table represents Commercial Systems’ sales by product category:

(dollars in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Air transport aviation electronics	$	465		$	424
Business and regional aviation electronics		387			352
Total	$	852		$	776
Percent increase		10	%

Air transport aviation electronics sales increased $41 million, or 10 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2005. This sales growth is primarily attributed to higher sales of flight-deck avionics related to accelerating OEM deliveries partially offset by lower in-flight entertainment revenues.

Business and regional aviation electronics sales increased $35 million, or 10 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in the prior year. This sales growth is attributed to higher sales of flight-deck avionics and cabin electronics systems and products partially offset by lower regional jet avionics sales.

The following table represents Commercial Systems’ sales based on the type of product or service:

(in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006		2005
Original equipment	$	427	$	340
Aftermarket		425		436
Total	$	852	$	776

Original equipment sales increased $87 million, or 26 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in the prior year. This sales growth is attributed to higher sales of flight-deck avionics for new air transport aircraft and higher sales of flight-deck avionics and cabin electronics systems and products for new business jet aircraft as a result of accelerating air transport and business jet production rates partially offset by lower regional jet avionics sales.

Aftermarket sales decreased $11 million, or 3 percent, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the six months ended March 31, 2005. A sharp decline in regulatory mandate program revenues and lower in-flight entertainment retrofit revenues offset a 10 percent increase in other core aftermarket activities, with particular strength in retrofit, spares and business and regional aircraft service and support activities.

Commercial Systems’ Segment Operating Earnings

(dollars in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Segment operating earnings	$	164		$	145
Percent of sales		19.2	%		18.7	%

Commercial Systems’ operating earnings increased $19 million, or 13 percent, to $164 million, or 19.2 percent of sales, compared to $145 million, or 18.7 percent of sales, for the six months ended March 31, 2005. This increase is due primarily to the combination of increased sales volume, productivity improvements, and lower incentive compensation costs which more than offset higher research and development expenditures, higher pension costs, and a decline in higher margin regulatory mandate revenues compared to the prior year.

22

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective October 1, 2005, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which requires us to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The cost of the employee services is recognized as compensation cost over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. For information on the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R, see Note 12 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Retirement Benefits

Net benefit expense for pension benefits and other retirement benefits are as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended March 31					Six Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005		2006			2005
Pension benefits	$	17		$	7	$	35		$	15
Other retirement benefits		(1	)		1		(1	)		1
Net benefit expense	$	16		$	8	$	34		$	16

Pension Benefits

Pension expense for the full year 2006 is expected to be $70 million compared to $31 million for the full year 2005. The increase in pension expense is due primarily to a lower discount rate and higher pensionable earnings.

Other Retirement Benefits

We expect Other Retirement Benefits income of approximately $2 million for the full year 2006 compared to the full year 2005 expense of $1 million.

Income Taxes

At the end of each interim reporting period we make an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate. Tax items included in the annual effective tax rate are pro-rated for the full year and tax items discrete to a specific quarter are included in the effective tax rate for that quarter. The estimate used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis may change in subsequent interim periods. During the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the effective income tax rate was 29.6 percent and 28.6 percent, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the effective income tax rate was 30.8 percent and 29.4 percent, respectively. The effective tax rate was higher for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 than the prior year because the Federal Research and Development (“R&D”) Tax Credit was not extended beyond December 31, 2005. For the full year, we anticipate the effective tax rate to be approximately 30 percent if the R&D Tax Credit, which provides a tax benefit on certain incremental R&D expenditures, is extended retroactively to January 1, 2006 and expires no earlier than September 30, 2006, as currently proposed in both the House and Senate tax bills. If the R&D Tax Credit is not extended, our effective tax rate for the full year is expected to be approximately 32 percent. The difference between our effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate of 35 percent is primarily the result of the tax benefits derived from the R&D Tax Credit and the Extraterritorial Income Exclusion (“ETI”), which provides a tax benefit on export sales.

The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“the Act”) provides for a special one-time deduction of 85 percent of certain foreign earnings repatriated into the U.S. from non-U.S. subsidiaries through September 30, 2006. Based on the guidance provided from the IRS to date, we have completed our evaluation of the merits of repatriating funds under the Act. We plan to repatriate approximately $100 million of unremitted non-U.S. earnings in 2006 in accordance with the provisions of the Act and recorded a $2 million tax liability in fiscal 2005 related to the planned repatriation.

23

Outlook

A summary of our 2006 anticipated results is as follows:

• Total sales in the range of $3.8 to $3.9 billion.

• Diluted earnings per share in the range of $2.60 to $2.70.

• Government Systems’ sales are expected to increase by 14 to 16 percent over 2005 sales with operating margins of approximately 19 percent.

• Commercial Systems’ sales are expected to increase by 8 to 10 percent over 2005 sales, with operating margins in the range of 19 to 20 percent.

• Cash provided by operating activities of approximately $600 million.

• Capital expenditures of approximately $140 million.

• Total company and customer-funded research and development expenditures of approximately $690 million or about 18 percent of total sales.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Cash Flow Summary

Operating Activities

(in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006		2005
Cash provided by operating activities	$	140	$	206

The decrease in operating cash flow during the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period last year was principally due to anticipated higher income tax payments, increased compensation and benefit payments, and the impact of classifying excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options as a financing activity in the current year versus as an operating activity in the prior year due to the adoption of SFAS 123R. These decreases were partially offset by higher net income of $33 million and other working capital changes.

Investing Activities

(in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Cash used for investing activities	$	(60	)	$	(71	)

The decrease in cash flows used for investing activities was primarily due to the acquisition of TELDIX in 2005 partially offset by a $12 million increase in capital expenditures. Capital expenditures increased to $60 million in the six months ended March 31, 2006 from $48 million for the same period last year. We expect capital expenditures for the full year 2006 to be approximately $140 million compared to full year 2005 capital expenditures of $111 million. Demand for new test equipment to support new programs is the primary driver of increased capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

(in millions)	Six Months Ended March 31
	2006			2005
Cash used for financing activities	$	(73	)	$	(78	)

24

For the six months ended March 31, 2006 we repurchased 2.2 million shares of common stock at a cost of $111 million compared to 2.4 million shares at a cost of $106 million for the same period last year. For the six months ended March 31, 2006, we received $58 million from the exercise of stock options compared to $71 million for the same period last year. We paid cash dividends of $41 million during the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $43 million for the same period last year. We received a $21 million excess tax benefit from the exercise of stock options for the six months ended March 31, 2006. In connection with the adoption of SFAS 123R as of October 1, 2005, the excess tax benefit from the exercise of stock options is classified as a financing activity in 2006. During 2005, excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options were classified as an operating activity.

Cash generated by operations combined with our borrowing capacity is expected to meet the foreseeable future operating cash flow needs, capital expenditures, dividend payments, contractual commitments, acquisitions, and share repurchases.

Liquidity

In addition to cash provided by normal operating activities, we utilize a combination of short-term and long-term debt to finance operations. Our primary source of short-term liquidity is through borrowings in the commercial paper market. Our access to that market is facilitated by the strength of our credit ratings and an $850 million committed credit facility with several banks (Revolving Credit Facility). Our current ratings as provided by Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s), Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, Inc. are A-2 / A / A, respectively, for long-term debt and P-1 / A-1 / F-1, respectively, for short-term debt. All three agencies have stable outlooks on our credit rating.

Under our commercial paper program, we may sell up to $850 million face amount of unsecured short-term promissory notes in the commercial paper market. The commercial paper notes may bear interest or may be sold at a discount and have a maturity of not more than 364 days from time of issuance. Borrowings under the commercial paper program are available for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes. There were no commercial paper borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2006.

Our Revolving Credit Facility consists of an $850 million five-year unsecured revolving credit agreement entered into on May 24, 2005. The Revolving Credit Facility exists primarily to support our commercial paper program, but is available to us in the event our access to the commercial paper market is impaired or eliminated. Our only financial covenant under the Revolving Credit Facility requires that we maintain a consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio of not greater than 60 percent. Our debt to total capitalization ratio at March 31, 2006 was 15 percent. The Revolving Credit Facility contains covenants that require us to satisfy certain conditions in order to incur debt secured by liens, engage in sale/leaseback transactions, or merge or consolidate with another entity. The Revolving Credit Facility does not contain any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of our indebtedness. In addition, short-term credit facilities available to foreign subsidiaries amounted to $52 million as of March 31, 2006, of which $21 million was utilized to support commitments in the form of commercial letters of credit. There were no significant commitment fees or compensating balance requirements under any of our credit facilities. At March 31, 2006, there were no borrowings outstanding under any of the Company’s credit facilities.

In addition to our credit facilities and commercial paper program, we have a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering up to $750 million in debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or warrants that may be offered in one or more offerings on terms to be determined at the time of sale. On November 20, 2003, we issued $200 million of debt due December 1, 2013 (the Notes) under the shelf registration statement. The Notes contain covenants that require us to satisfy certain conditions in order to incur debt secured by liens, engage in sale/leaseback transactions, or merge or consolidate with another entity. At March 31, 2006, $550 million of the shelf registration was available for future use.

If our credit ratings were to be adjusted downward by the rating agencies, the implications of such actions could include elimination of access to the commercial paper market and an increase in the cost of borrowing. In the event that we do not have access to the commercial paper market, alternative sources of funding could include borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, funds available from the issuance of securities under our shelf registration, and potential asset securitization strategies.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management of Rockwell Collins to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect our financial condition and results of operations that are reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as well as the related disclosure of assets and liabilities contingent upon future events. The critical accounting policies used in preparation of the Company’s financial statements are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2005. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

This quarterly report contains statements, including certain projections and business trends, accompanied by such phrases as “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “could”, “likely”, “anticipates”, “will”, “intends”, and other similar expressions, that are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the health of the global economy, the continued recovery of the commercial aerospace industry and the continued support for military transformation and modernization programs; the potential adverse impact of oil prices on the commercial aerospace industry; changes in domestic and foreign government spending, budgetary and trade policies adverse to our businesses; market acceptance of our new and existing technologies, products and services; reliability of and customer satisfaction with our products and services; potential cancellation or termination of contracts, delay of orders or changes in procurement practices or program priorities by our customers; customer bankruptcies and profitability; recruitment and retention of qualified personnel; performance of our suppliers and subcontractors which we are highly dependent upon for timely, high quality and specification compliant products and services; risks inherent in fixed price contracts, particularly the risk of cost overruns; risk of significant and prolonged disruption to air travel; our ability to execute to our internal performance plans such as our continuous productivity improvement and cost reduction initiatives; achievement of our acquisition and related integration plans; continuing to maintain our planned effective tax rates; our ability to develop contract compliant systems and products and satisfy our contractual commitments; favorable outcome of certain program restructuring, customer procurements, and congressional approvals; risk of contract price reductions and payment withholds related to noncompliance with U.S. Defense Department specialty metal requirements; risk of asset impairment and government claims related to our pension plan freeze; and the uncertainties of the outcome of litigation, as well as other risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those detailed herein and from time to time in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings. These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

In addition to using cash provided by normal operating activities, we utilize a combination of short-term and long-term debt to finance operations. Our operating results and cash flows are exposed to changes in interest rates that could adversely affect the amount of interest expense incurred and paid on debt obligations in any given period. In addition, changes in interest rates can affect the fair value of our debt obligations. Such changes in fair value are only relevant to the extent these debt obligations are settled prior to maturity. We manage our exposure to interest rate risk by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt and when considered necessary, we may employ financial instruments in the form of interest rate swaps to help meet this objective.

At March 31, 2006, we had $200 million of 4.75 percent fixed rate long-term debt obligations outstanding with a carrying value of $196 million and a fair value of $190 million. We converted $100 million of this fixed rate debt to floating rate debt bearing interest at six-month LIBOR less 7.5 basis points by executing “receive fixed, pay variable” interest rate swap contracts. A 10 percent increase or decrease in average market interest rates would have decreased or increased the fair value of our long-term debt, exclusive of the effects of the interest rate swap contracts, by $6 million and $6 million, respectively. The $100 million notional value of interest rate swap contracts had a carrying and fair value of $4 million at March 31, 2006. A 10 percent increase or decrease in average market interest rates would decrease or increase the fair value of our interest rate swap contracts by $4 million and $3 million, respectively. Inclusive of the effect of the interest rate swaps, a 10 percent increase or decrease in average market interest rates would not have a material effect on our results of operations or cash flows. For more information related to outstanding debt obligations and derivative financial instruments, see Notes 10 and 16 in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

26

Foreign Currency Risk

We transact business in various foreign currencies which subjects our cash flows and earnings to exposure related to changes to foreign currency exchange rates. We attempt to manage this exposure through operational strategies and the use of foreign currency forward exchange contracts (foreign currency contracts). All foreign currency contracts are executed with creditworthy banks and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. The majority of our non-functional currency firm and anticipated receivables and payables are hedged using foreign currency contracts. It is our policy not to manage exposure to net investments in foreign subsidiaries or enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts were $226 million and $234 million at March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively. Notional amounts are stated in U.S. dollar equivalents at spot exchange rates at the respective dates. Principal currencies that are hedged include the European euro, British pound sterling, and Japanese yen. The duration of foreign currency contracts is generally two years or less. The net fair value of these foreign currency contracts at March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005 were net liabilities of $1 million and $5 million, respectively. If the US dollar increased or decreased in value against all currencies by 10 percent, the effect on the fair value of the foreign currency contracts, our results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition would not be significant at March 31, 2006.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of March 31, 2006, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective as of March 31, 2006 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 10-s-1

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS’ COMPENSATION SUMMARY

Our non-employee directors receive a retainer at the rate of $85,000 per year for service on our board of directors, payable in cash (in quarterly installments of $21,250 at the beginning of each quarter). This structure is effective for existing directors commencing in October 2006 and is effective upon appointment for any new director (prorated as appropriate).

Under the 2006 Long-Term Incentives Plan, which has been approved by our shareowners (the “Plan”), each director will have the option each year to determine whether to defer all or any part of the cash portion of his or her retainer by electing to receive additional restricted stock units of our common stock valued at the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions reporting system on the date the cash portion of the retainer payment would otherwise be paid.

Under the Plan, each non-employee director is granted 3,000 restricted stock units of our common stock effective upon election as a director. In addition, each non-employee director is granted 1,500 restricted stock units of our common stock on an annual basis immediately after each annual meeting of our shareowners beginning with the shareowners’ meeting following the first anniversary of Board service.

An Audit Committee annual fee will be paid to the Audit Committee Chairman at a fixed annual rate of $10,000 and the other Audit Committee members (excluding the Chairman) at a fixed rate of $5,000 each to be paid in cash (quarterly in advance). Each Audit Committee member (including the Chairman) will have the option each year to determine whether to defer all or any part of his or her Audit Committee annual fee by electing to receive additional restricted stock units of our common stock valued at the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions reporting system on the date the cash retainer payment would otherwise be paid.

COMPUTATION OF RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2006

(in millions, except ratio)

EARNINGS AVAILABLE FOR FIXED CHARGES:
Income before income taxes	$	315
Adjustments:
Income from equity affiliates		(4	)
Equity affiliate distributions		7
Add fixed charges included in earnings:
Interest expense		6
Interest element of rentals		3
Total earnings available for fixed charges	$	327
FIXED CHARGES:
Fixed charges included in earnings		9
Capitalized interest		—
Total fixed charges	$	9
RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES (1)		36.3

(1) In computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings are defined as income before income taxes, adjusted for income or loss attributable to minority interests in subsidiaries, undistributed earnings of less than majority owned subsidiaries, and fixed charges excluding capitalized interest. Fixed charges are defined as interest on borrowings (whether expensed or capitalized) and that portion of rental expense applicable to interest. Our ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the period above are the same as our ratio of earnings to fixed charges because we had no shares of preferred stock outstanding for the period presented and currently have no shares of preferred stock outstanding.
