Honeywell, one of the few remaining US industrial conglomerates, will split into three companies

Honeywell International will split into three separate companies: Honeywell Automation, Honeywell Aerospace, and Advanced Materials, as announced on Thursday.
The separation is expected to be completed in the second half of 2026, with the Advanced Materials spin-off by the end of 2025 or early 2026.
This decision follows pressure from activist shareholder Elliott Investment Management, which purchased a $5 billion stake in Honeywell.
Honeywell Aerospace generated nearly $4 billion in revenue last year and is a major supplier to Boeing and Airbus.
