Spin-off, divestitures and acquisitions

The Aerospace spin-off is expected to be completed on June 29, 2026. The Honeywell Technologies outlook incorporates the impact of planned divestitures of Productivity Solutions and Services and Warehouse and Workflow Solutions, which the company said it has agreements to sell in the second quarter and expects to close by the fourth quarter. The outlook also includes estimated results for the Johnson Matthey Catalyst Technologies acquisition announced in May 2025 and expected to close in the third quarter. Management said it will change adjusted-result presentation by removing income from an overfunded pension liability and excluding consolidated Quantinuum results following its June 4 initial public offering.

Investor events and non-GAAP disclosures

Management will discuss the 2026 outlook on a conference call that precedes the company’s Investor Day on June 11, 2026; webcasts and presentation materials will be available via the investor relations site. The release relies on non-GAAP measures (adjusted sales, segment profit and margin, adjusted EPS, organic growth, free cash flow) and notes reconciliations are provided in the appendix.
