Honeywell Technologies (HON): Buy After the Breakup?

Honeywell has completed its long-awaited breakup, separating Honeywell Aerospace from the newly focused Honeywell Technologies. CSI walks through Honeywell's Q2 2026 earnings report, covering the building automation, process automation, and industrial automation segments, and explains why organic sales growth alone doesn't tell the full story: the real story is what's happening to margins.

The conversation digs into the recently closed Johnson Matthey Catalyst Technologies acquisition, the LNG equipment business driving process automation orders, and the divestitures of Honeywell's productivity solutions and warehouse and workflow segments. It also covers the balance sheet, including nearly $34 billion in total debt offset by asset sale proceeds, and Honeywell's 47% remaining equity stake in newly public quantum computing company Quantinuum.

Finally, CSI runs Honeywell Technologies stock through a reverse discounted cash flow model using updated adjusted EPS guidance to estimate fair value, and discusses what would make this semiconductor-adjacent industrial and energy transition stock a stronger buy. If you're a long-term fundamental investor tracking the semiconductor supply chain, AI infrastructure spending, and the industrial automation cycle, this breakdown is for you.
