| Market Position/History | Eaton is a power management company founded in the United States with global headquarters in Dublin, Ireland, and a secondary administrative center in Beachwood, Ohio. The company has a team of around 97,000 employees worldwide. In 1911, the Torbensen Gear and Axle Co. was founded in Bloomfield, New Jersey. With financial backing from Torbensen's mother, the company was set to manufacture Torbensen's patented internal-gear truck axle. In 1914, the company was moved to Cleveland, Ohio. The Torbensen Axle Company was incorporated in Ohio in 1916, succeeding the New Jersey corporation. A year later, Republic Motor Truck Company, Torbensen's largest customer bought Torbensen Gear and Axle Co. Eaton and Torbensen were not content and bowed out of Republic to form the Eaton Axle Company in 1919. A year later, in 1920, Eaton Axle Company merged with Standard Parts. In 1923, Eaton bought the Torbensen Axle Co. back from Republic and changed the name to the Eaton Axle and Spring Company. By 1932, the company had changed its name to Eaton Manufacturing Company. In 1937, Eaton had become international by opening a manufacturing plant in Canada. In 1958 Eaton Corporation acquired Fuller Manufacturing. The company name changed once again in 1965 to Eaton Yale & Towne Inc. after the acquisition of Yale & Towne Manufacturing Co. in 1963. Stockholders approved the change to the company's current name in 1971. In 1978, Eaton Corporation acquired Samuel Moore & Company, Kenway Systems, and Cutler-Hammer. The company operates business in more than 175 countries. |

Impact of COVID-19
During the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, authorities implemented measures to stop the spread of the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, shelter-in-place orders, and shutdowns, and consumers have changed their demand patterns. As a result, its operations and financial results have been impacted. Its organic sales were down 11% in 2020 primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Despite this, in 2020, Eaton maintained appropriate levels of inventory to prevent shortages and stayed in close contact with its suppliers to manage the pandemic impact on the supply chain.
