Summary

Eaton is a diversified power management company operating for over 100 years. The company operates through various segments, including electrical products, electrical systems and services, aerospace, vehicle, and most recently, e-mobility. Eaton’s portfolio can broadly be divided into two halves. One part of its portfolio is housed under its industrial sector umbrella, which serves a large variety of end markets like commercial vehicles, general aviation, trucks, and construction markets, among others. The other portion is Eaton’s electrical sector portfolio, which was strengthened with its acquisition of Cooper Industries in 2012. While the company receives favorable tax treatment as a domiciliary of Ireland, most of its operations take place in the U.S.
