On July 21, 2015, United Technologies cut its 2015 earnings guidance, citing weak performance by the Company's UTC Aerospace Systems ("UTAS") and Otis Elevator Co. ("Otis") units. On a related earnings conference call, the Company's officers advised investors that, in their view, the assumptions relating to UTAS and Otis that had formed the basis of the earnings guidance were "way too aggressive" and that United Technologies did not "dig deep enough" when setting the guidance.
On this news, United Technologies' share price fell $7.77, or 7.03%, to close at $102.71 on July 21, 2015.
