(Reuters) - Johnson Controls (NYSE:JCI) International reported lower-than-expected first-quarter revenue on Wednesday, as the provider of heating and air-conditioning systems for offices, hospitals and schools struggled with supply chain logjams.

The company's first-quarter sales rose about 3.5% to $6.07 billion, compared with analysts' expectation of $6.25 billion.

Adjusted profit of 67 cents per share was in line with the average analyst estimate, according to Refinitiv data.

Shares of the company fell 1.26% before the bell. They had lost nearly 20% in 2022.

The Ireland-headquartered company has been reeling from a global shortage of semiconductor chips and higher raw material costs amid a tight labor market.
