Honeywell International (HON) is undergoing a transformative period as it prepares for a significant spin-off, dividing into three distinct business entities. While many analysts express optimism about the potential unlocking of value similar to the GE breakup, caution is advised amidst concerns about current valuations and growth rates. Despite a strong position in the aerospace sector with high demand for air travel, experts note that the company's growth may lag behind competitors like Caterpillar. Although the stock has shown stability, there are mixed feelings about whether the upcoming spinoffs will deliver the desired shareholder value. Overall, the reviews reflect a balance between cautious optimism and strategic selling to explore better opportunities within the industrial sector.

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.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Have not reported Q3 yet. Margins expanding. Long cycle business' performing well. Good for re-shoring theme. Expensive valuation at 18x earnings. Better deal in General Electric.
