Key Terms

form 10-k, assets held for sale, impairment charges, goodwill impairment, +1 more
5 terms
form 10-k regulatory
"filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year"
A Form 10-K is a comprehensive report that publicly traded companies are required to file annually with regulators. It provides a detailed overview of a company's financial health, operations, and risks, similar to a detailed health report. Investors use this information to assess the company's performance and make informed decisions about buying or selling its stock.
assets held for sale financial
"classified the PSS and WWS businesses as assets held for sale"
Assets held for sale are things a company has decided to sell and has reclassified on its balance sheet to show they are being marketed rather than used in daily operations — like putting a house on the market instead of living in it. This matters to investors because these items are measured based on expected sale proceeds (which can reveal likely gains or losses), stop being treated as regular operating assets, and signal upcoming cash inflows or a change in strategy that can affect the company’s financial health and stock value.
impairment charges financial
"announced impairment charges for the PSS and WWS assets held for sale"
Impairment charges are one-time accounting write-downs taken when a company decides an asset — like a factory, brand, patent, or investment — is worth less than it was recorded for. Like marking down the price of a damaged item on a store shelf, they reduce reported profits and the asset’s book value; investors watch them because they can signal lasting business problems or change future earnings and balance-sheet strength.
goodwill impairment financial
"an incremental goodwill impairment charge of $436 million associated"
Goodwill impairment occurs when a company’s valued reputation or brand strength, known as goodwill, is found to be worth less than previously recorded on its financial statements. This usually happens when the company's performance declines or market conditions change, signaling that the expected benefits from acquisitions or brand value are no longer as strong. It matters to investors because it can indicate that a company's assets are less valuable than initially thought, potentially affecting its overall financial health.
operating margin financial
"operating margin was revised to 14.9%"
Operating margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core business activities after paying for costs like wages and materials. It’s useful because it tells you how efficiently a company is running—higher margins mean it keeps more money from each dollar of sales, which can indicate better management or stronger products.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Feb. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON) today filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

As previously disclosed in its January 29, 2026 press release announcing fourth quarter and full year 2025 earnings (the "Earnings Release"), Honeywell classified the Productivity Solutions and Services ("PSS") and Warehouse and Workflow Solutions ("WWS") businesses as assets held for sale during the fourth quarter of 2025. The PSS and WWS businesses are planned for sale as part of Honeywell's ongoing portfolio optimization strategy, allowing Honeywell to focus on its core automation portfolio. In addition, in the Earnings Release, Honeywell announced impairment charges for the PSS and WWS assets held for sale that were reflected in the Company's year-end results.

In connection with Honeywell's ongoing sale process for the businesses, the Company continually evaluates information relevant to the financial analysis associated with the sale as it becomes available. Subsequent to the Earnings Release, the Company received incremental information that resulted in additional impairment charges that are reported in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K that the Company filed on February 17, 2026. The additional impairment charges include, relative to the corresponding impairment charges referenced in the Earnings Release, an incremental goodwill impairment charge of $436 million associated with Honeywell's Industrial Automation reportable segment and an impairment charge on assets held for sale of $35 million, with an offsetting tax benefit of $61 million. Therefore, Honeywell's full-year reported earnings per share from continuing operations was revised to $6.94, net income from continuing operations was revised to $4,468 million, operating income was revised to $5,573 million, and operating margin was revised to 14.9%. However, these incremental charges do not change Honeywell's previously announced adjusted fourth quarter or full-year 2025 results or 2026 guidance, which the Company reaffirms today.

As previously announced, Honeywell continues to expect to announce the sale of the PSS and WWS businesses in the first half of 2026.

The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, including its audited financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, is available on Honeywell's Investor Relations website at investor.honeywell.com under the heading "Financials" (see "SEC Filings") and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
