Honeywell International (HON) shares advanced Tuesday as the diversified technology and manufacturing conglomerate posted better-than-expected results and raised the low end of its profit outlook as it announced plans to offset the potential impact of tariffs.

CEO Says Firm Faces 'Uncertain Global Demand Environment' for Rest of Year

CEO Vimal Kapur said despite what he called "the volatile macroeconomic backdrop," Honeywell's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:segment margin was consistent with last year. Kapur added that although the company hasn't seen it in its performance yet, it faces "an uncertain global demand environment for the remaindeဣr of 2025, and our company will ꦛwork tirelessly, leveraging all tools available to us, to deliver for customers and shareholders."

To that end, the company intends to take a "multi-pronged approach to balance defending margins and protecting volumes." Those steps include targeted price actions, finding alternative supply lines, and accelerating use of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:artificial intelligence (AI) in engineering.

Honeywell now sees full-year adjusted EPS of $10.20 to $10.50, compared to its previous outlook of $10.10 to $10.50. Kapur also noted that the company was "even more confident" about the benefits of its planned split into three separate firms that was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:announced in February.

Even with today's 4.5% gains, shares of Honeywell International remain about 7% lower in 2025.
