[8-K] HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Honeywell International Inc. disclosed an organizational realignment that is expected to be effective in the first quarter of 2026. The company will form a new reportable segment, Process Automation and Technology, combining UOP from Energy and Sustainability Solutions with the core portion of Process Solutions from Industrial Automation.

After the change, Honeywell’s reportable segments will be Aerospace Technologies, Building Automation, Process Automation and Technology, and Industrial Automation. The updated Industrial Automation segment will include smart energy, thermal solutions, process measurement and control, Sensing and Safety Technologies, Warehouse and Workflow Solutions, and Productivity Solutions and Services. Leadership following the spin-off of the Aerospace Technologies business remains defined, with division CEOs reporting to Vimal Kapur, who will continue as Chairman and CEO.

Honeywell will report under the new structure beginning with first quarter 2026 results and plans to provide recast historical segment information for comparability.

Insights

Industrial conglomerates analyst

Segment realignment adds a new unit; reporting shifts start in Q1 2026.

Honeywell will create Process Automation and Technology by moving UOP from Energy and Sustainability Solutions and combining it with the core of Process Solutions from Industrial Automation. The remaining Industrial Automation portfolio will house smart energy, thermal solutions, process measurement and control, Sensing and Safety Technologies, Warehouse and Workflow Solutions, and Productivity Solutions and Services.

The company notes no change to historical consolidated results, indicating an organizational—but not economic—change. Leadership is set across segments, and Vimal Kapur remains Chairman and CEO following the Aerospace Technologies spin-off.

Reporting will align to the new four-segment structure starting in Q1 2026, with recast history to follow. Actual operational impact will be clearer once segment recasts and first-quarter disclosures are available.

Item 8.01    Other Events

On October 22, 2025, Honeywell International Inc. (the “Company”) announced that, expected to be effective the first quarter of 2026, it will realign its business units comprising its Industrial Automation and Energy and Sustainability Solutions reportable business segments. This realignment will form a new reportable business segment, Process Automation and Technology, and result in a new composition of the Industrial Automation reportable business segment. Process Automation and Technology will include UOP, which is currently in Energy and Sustainability Solutions, and the core portion of the Process Solutions business, which is currently in Industrial Automation. The new composition of Industrial Automation will continue to include the smart energy, thermal solutions, and process measurement and control businesses, currently included in the Process Solutions business, Sensing and Safety Technologies, Warehouse and Workflow Solutions, and Productivity Solutions and Services. Following the realignment, the Company’s reportable business segments will be Aerospace Technologies, Building Automation, Process Automation and Technology, and Industrial Automation. Other operations will continue to be presented in Corporate and All Other, which is not a reportable business segment. Following the spin-off of the Aerospace Technologies business, Honeywell’s businesses will continue to be led by Billal Hammoud as president and CEO of Building Automation; Peter Lau as president and CEO of Industrial Automation; Jim Masso as president and CEO of Process Automation; and Ken West as president and CEO of Process Technology. Each of these leaders will report to Vimal Kapur, who will continue to serve as Chairman and CEO of Honeywell following the separation.

The foregoing changes have no impact on the Company’s historical consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Effective with the reporting of first quarter 2026 results, the Company will report its financial performance based on these four reporting segments. To provide historical information on a basis consistent with this new reporting structure, the Company will make available later this year and in 2026 certain historical segment results, presented on a basis consistent with the new reportable business segment realignment. The recast segment financial information will not represent a restatement of previously issued financial statements.
