Brady (NYSE: BRC) completed its previously announced acquisition of Honeywell Technologies’ Productivity Solutions and Services (PSS) business from Honeywell (Nasdaq: HON) on August 3, 2026. The all-cash $1.4 billion deal was funded with cash on hand, a senior unsecured credit facility and private placement debt, while maintaining liquidity for ongoing operations and growth.
PSS generated about $1.1 billion of 2025 sales. Brady will now operate two reportable segments: Identification Solutions (legacy Brady) and Intelligent Productivity Solutions (PSS). According to Brady, PSS is expected to add approximately $0.80 of incremental Adjusted Diluted EPS* within the first 12 months, be immediately accretive, and support strong cash generation for deleveraging.
The company targets at least $25 million in annual run-rate cost synergies within three years and expects net debt-to-EBITDA* of about 2.5x at close, with a goal to reduce this metric below 2.0x within two years. Brady cites an expanded addressable market, including access to a $9 billion productivity solutions market, and increased recurring revenue potential from PSS’s software and services.
