Honeywell raised its full-year 2026 outlook on October 22, 2026, after reporting third-quarter adjusted earnings per share of USD 2.27, up 34 percent from a year earlier, according to Honeywell. After the Xetra close, the stock was trading at EUR 194.89 at Lang & Schwarz on October 27, 2026 at 5:10 p.m. CEST.

Guidance moves higher

The revised outlook puts full-year sales at USD 20.0 billion to USD 20.1 billion, compared with previous guidance of USD 19.8 billion to USD 20.0 billion. Organic growth is now expected at 4 percent to 5 percent, up from 3 percent to 4 percent, while adjusted earnings per share guidance increased to USD 8.40 to USD 8.45 from USD 8.05 to USD 8.35, according to Honeywell.

The cash-flow target also rose to USD 2.1 billion from USD 2.0 billion. The company expects segment margin of about 20.5 percent, at the upper end of its prior range. The combination gives investors a clearer measure of the post-aerospace-spinoff earnings base.

Sales growth has two sides

Third-quarter sales were USD 4.99 billion, up 1 percent reported and 7 percent organically. Adjusted earnings per share exceeded the USD 2.16 consensus by USD 0.11, while revenue came in below the USD 5.01 billion estimate, according to Investing.com.

Operating income increased to USD 740 million from USD 413 million in the third quarter of 2025, while segment margin expanded to 21.3 percent from 17.6 percent. Process Automation and Technology sales rose 16 percent, but its margin fell to 22.2 percent from 24.3 percent as project mix and acquisition-related dilution weighed on the segment.

Nasdaq valuation stays visible

On Nasdaq, Honeywell last traded at USD 217.13 on October 27, 2026 at 12:17 p.m. EDT while the session was open. Its market capitalization was USD 68.8 billion, with a 52-week range of USD 195.87 to USD 260.28 and a price-to-earnings ratio of 9.82 on the same date.

The latest quarter therefore combines a small revenue shortfall with a larger earnings improvement and higher cash-flow guidance. For investors, the next test is whether the raised outlook converts the margin gains into sustained organic growth.

Price and outlook in context

Honeywell's third-quarter sales, adjusted earnings per share, operating income and guidance were all dated to the October 22, 2026 release. The company also reported a backlog of nearly USD 19.0 billion, up 7 percent year over year excluding divestitures, providing a quantified operating counterweight to the revenue miss.
