↑ 2%Corning reported revenue of nearly $15.6 billion in FY 2025, representing 19.1% year-on-year growth, with net income reaching roughly $1.6 billion and a net margin of 10.2%. The specialised glass and optical-physics manufacturer supplies optical fibre to Verizon and durable cover glass to Apple, whilst partnering with Amazon, Nvidia, and Qualcomm for AI and data centre architectures. Its debt-to-equity ratio stood at approximately 0.9x, with a current ratio of 1.6x. Honeywell International, operating across aerospace technologies, industrial automation, and building automation, reported FY 2025 revenue of approximately $37.4 billion, reflecting 7.8% growth. The diversified industrial technology company achieved net income of roughly $4.7 billion, resulting in a 12.6% net margin. Honeywell maintains strategic agreements with Bombardier for propulsion and avionics systems whilst refining its portfolio through divestments.
Honeywell shares tumbled roughly 5% to $231 on Tuesday, underperforming all major industrial peers following weak investor reception at its Chicago event. The decline stems partly from the poor debut quarter of spun-off Honeywell Aerospace, now trading as HONA, which prompted UBS to cut its price target. Honeywell's Q2 results showed reported revenue of $9.72 billion, down 6.1% year-over-year due to the aerospace separation. Whilst CEO Vimal Kapur raised full-year adjusted earnings guidance and positioned the company as a "leading pure-play automation company", the complex optics failed to convince investors. Meanwhile, peer 3M rose 1% after delivering a clean earnings beat with 8.2% organic growth in Safety & Industrial and raising its full-year guidance.
Honeywell has completed its split into three separate public companies, with Honeywell Technologies retaining the HON ticker and Honeywell Aerospace beginning trading on 29 June. The advanced-materials operation became Solstice Advanced Materials in October 2025. CNBC's Jim Cramer views Honeywell Aerospace as an interesting long-term opportunity, comparing the breakup to General Electric's multi-year split. He suggests targeted companies can eventually achieve higher valuations than their parent conglomerates, though it may take several quarters for markets to recognise this value. Honeywell Technologies reported second-quarter sales of $5.2 billion, up 3% overall and 4% organically. Orders increased 16%, creating a backlog exceeding $20 billion. Building Automation revenues grew 9% on data centre and healthcare demand, whilst Industrial Automation sales rose 4%.
Kenneth J. West, President and CEO of Process Technologies at Honeywell International, sold 17,032 shares of common stock for $4.2 million on 27 July 2026, according to an SEC filing. The shares were sold at $243.77 each. The transaction involved West exercising stock options with an exercise price of $200.61 and immediately selling the shares. Following the sale, West reduced his direct common stock ownership by 89%. West retains 2,132 shares held directly, 373 shares held indirectly through a 401(k) plan, and 4,867 derivative securities in the form of employee stock options. His total beneficial ownership is valued at $618,860 based on Honeywell's closing price of $247.05 on 28 July 2026. Honeywell is a diversified technology and manufacturing conglomerate with a market capitalisation of $78.3 billion.
Honeywell International reported 4% organic sales growth in Q2 2026, driven by Building Automation and Industrial Automation. The company posted adjusted earnings per share of $1.95, up 10% year-over-year, whilst segment margins expanded by 100 basis points to 19%. Orders grew 16% organically, with ending backlog rising 9%. Free cash flow reached approximately $500 million for the quarter. The company raised its full-year outlook, now expecting organic sales growth of 3% to 4% and adjusted EPS of $8.20 at midpoint. Free cash flow conversion is forecast at approximately 95% for 2026. Process Automation Technologies sales declined 1% organically, though this exceeded original expectations. Honeywell's divestitures of Productivity Solutions and Services and Warehouse and Workflow Solutions are expected to reduce 2026 revenue by approximately $400 million.
