Honeywell Technologies (NASDAQ: HON) is an industrial company focused on automation. It is undergoing a major restructuring that involves spinning off business segments. This process creates three independent entities: Honeywell Technologies, Honeywell Aerospace (NASDAQ: HONA), and Solstice Advanced Materials. The goal is to give each company greater focus and financial flexibility.
As part of this restructuring, Honeywell Technologies completes a 1-for-2 reverse stock split effective June 29, 2026. A reverse stock split reduces the total number of a company's shares, which increases the price per share. As highlighted by 24/7 Wall St., this action reduces Honeywell Technologies' outstanding shares from approximately 634 million to 317 million.
The reverse stock split is directly tied to the spin-off of its Aerospace business. This means the change is part of a larger corporate strategy and not due to a change in the company's fundamental value. The former Aerospace Technologies segment now operates as an independent company, Honeywell Aerospace, trading under the ticker "HONA".
The spin-off distribution gives shareholders one share of the new company, Honeywell Aerospace, for every two Honeywell Technologies shares they own. This distribution is expected to be tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As highlighted by PR Newswire, the company will discuss its second-quarter results and 2026 outlook on July 23.
Currently, Honeywell Technologies shares trade at $242.39, a daily increase of 4.38%. The stock's 52-week high is $496.36 and its low is $237.73. The company has a market capitalization of approximately $153.59 billion, with a daily trading volume of 1.75 million shares.
