Chigusa Katoku has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors tied to Honeywell’s earnings power and valuation. He sees a clear path for the company to deliver mid‑term EPS growth above 10% annually, supported by margin expansion, disciplined pricing in the 3–4% range, and favorable cycle timing in key segments such as Industrial Automation, Building Automation, and Productivity, Aerospace & Technologies.
Katoku also believes Honeywell can justify trading at a sector‑level multiple, leading him to set a $250 price target that incorporates the value of its Quantinuum stake. The margin roadmap to roughly 24% by 2029, driven more by price, cost productivity, and a higher mix of services and software than by volume, underpins his confidence, while strong free‑cash‑flow generation, planned deleveraging, and consistent capital returns further support the Buy recommendation.
Katoku covers the Industrials sector, focusing on stocks such as Rockwell Automation, Honeywell International, and 3M. According to TipRanks, Katoku has an average return of -4.8% and a 0.00% success rate on recommended stocks.
In another report released on July 1, BMO Capital also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $253.00 price target.
