(Reuters) – Honeywell International (NASDAQ:) is restructuring its business operations to focus on three broad business trends in its efforts to boost sales growth and reallocate capital, the company said on Tuesday.
The development comes as aviation suppliers are seeing a faster-than-expected rebound in air travel.
The Charlotte, North Carolina-based company’s shares were up 1.43%, at $189.17 before the bell.
“This simplified structure will enable Honeywell to realize synergies that will accelerate our innovation playbook,” Chief Executive Officer Vimal Kapur said.
Honeywell said its results for the third quarter would be in line with previously issued guidance ranges on its aviation business performance. It said earnings per share were expected to be within or above its previous estimates.
In July, the company provided an adjusted earnings outlook for the third quarter between $2.15 and $2.25 per share.
Honeywell said its new segmentation would take effect from the first quarter of 2024.
(This story has been corrected to say Honeywell is restructuring its business to focus on three broad trends, not restructuring business to three segments from four in paragraph 1 and remove reference to new segments in paragraph 4)
