Honeywell International (HON) is currently navigating a significant transformation through a planned spinoff into three separate entities, including an aerospace-focused business. The expert reviews indicate a mix of optimism and caution, highlighting HON's relatively flat stock performance and low growth rate compared to peers in the industrial sector. While some experts appreciate the potential for unlocking value through the spinoff, they also express concerns about valuation and the impact of market dynamics on the newly formed companies. Recommendations vary, with several analysts suggesting considering other industrial stocks for higher growth opportunities, while others maintain a positive outlook, emphasizing HON's stability and fundamentals as a compounder.

BUY

The company and CEO are doing everything right, but shares are highly undervalued.

BUY

He owns a lot. Their growth is in aerospace. Nobody wants Boeing, so they'll buy HON. He also likes their chemicals business, though it isn't growth. Their automation is a work in progress.

WAIT

Announced spinoffs. Lots of costs involved in decentralizing. Quarterly results and guidance were weak. Too early to enter. Not sure she'd want to own all the resulting parts. Needs more visibility.

TOP PICK

Special situation. Industrial conglomerate with 2 phenomenal businesses, aerospace and automation. Over the next year will split into 2 separate companies, each with its own capital allocation framework; potential to unlock a lot of value of between 50-100%. 

Trades ~20x PE, really good upside. He'd say to hold both those businesses once they come into being next year. Yield is 2.2%.

(Analysts’ price target is $240.57)
TOP PICK

Business model has come under pressure, not too many industrial conglomerates left. So much hidden value that can be unlocked over the next 2-3 years. Wonderful aerospace and defense, as well as automation. Separating them makes a lot of sense. Valuation is very attractive. Yield is 2%.

(Analysts’ price target is $247.09)
DON'T BUY

They had a poor quarter. Period.

DON'T BUY

It's done nothing for a long time. The past CEO was good, but is gone. Isn't crazy about their end markets in a declining economy. It can't break out past $180-200.

BUY

ROE is strong and it pays a 2% dividend. A core value holding.

BUY
A report that HON is weighing Quantinuum, a quantum computing company it co-owns, as an IPO

This would drive more value for shareholders. Let's wait and see. Shares were punished yesterday though on profits, but the valuation is good and topline trends are heading in the right direction. Still likes it.

HOLD

Stock price hovering around 200. Disappointed in share price performance. Believes company needs to take action soon. 

DON'T BUY

Their airline business is doing well. All capital goods companies fall into periods where they stagnate and need to buy a company and/or make new products.

PARTIAL BUY

He just started a position. Everything that Boeing is doing well, aerospace companies like this benefit. Also, they're streamlining their business, starting with aerospace, and can benefit from the infrastructure play. Pays a 2.2% dividend, bug share buybacks and solid dividend growth. He's expecting a breakout after sluggishnes.

WEAK BUY

Decent, won't hurt you over the long term. He's had success recently with the electrical equipment space, so that's a good place to look on pullbacks.

SELL

Great company, now a bit expensive. Sold when valuation got expensive for the fundamentals. Not a bad stock or story. Future expectations on EPS estimates tend to be declining, and he likes things that are going the other way.

BUY

HON has been beaten this year, but now has momentum after the Fed pivoted today.
