About
Johnson Controls International plc is a Cork, Ireland-incorporated building technology company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: JCI) as an S&P 500 Industrials component — providing smart building systems, HVAC equipment, fire detection and suppression, security systems, and building management automation software through approximately 100,000 employees serving commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings in 150 countries. Johnson Controls appointed Joakim Weidemanis as President and CEO effective March 12, 2025, succeeding George R. Oliver who retired after eight years leading the company's transformation from a diversified industrial conglomerate (including auto interiors, automotive batteries, and York HVAC) into a pure-play commercial building technology company. Weidemanis brings 13 years of Danaher experience — most recently as Executive Vice President of Diagnostics and China — applying Danaher Business System operational excellence disciplines to Johnson Controls' building technology platform. A defining 2024 strategic action was the $8.1 billion sale of Johnson Controls' Residential and Light Commercial HVAC business (including the York residential, Coleman, and Champion brands) to Bosch — focusing Johnson Controls entirely on commercial, industrial, and institutional building automation, HVAC, fire, and security. In fiscal year 2024 (ending September 2024), Johnson Controls reported revenue of approximately $22 billion (pre-divestiture), with the commercial and industrial building services generating approximately $12-13 billion in pro-forma revenue after the residential HVAC divestiture.
