**Item 7.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Regulation FD Disclosure**

On October 1, 2025, Honeywell International Inc. (the "<u>Company</u>") announced, in connection with the anticipated spin-off (the "<u>Spin-Off</u>") of the Company's Advanced Materials business into an independent, publicly traded company named "Solstice Advanced Materials Inc." ("<u>Solstice</u>"), that its board of directors has approved a record date of October 17, 2025 (the "<u>Record Date</u>") for the pro rata distribution (the "<u>Distribution</u>") of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Solstice to the holders of Company common stock as of the close of business on the Record Date (the "<u>Eligible Holders</u>"). The Distribution is expected to be effective as of 12:01 a.m. (New York City time) on October 30, 2025 (the "<u>Expected Distribution Date</u>"). On the Expected Distribution Date, the Eligible Holders are expected to receive one share of Solstice common stock for every four shares of Company common stock they hold as of the close of business on the Record Date. Completion of the Distribution is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including, among other things, the Board of Directors of the Company having formally declared the Distribution, as set forth in the form of Separation and Distribution Agreement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>") as part of the registration statement on Form 10, which was also declared effective by the SEC on September 30, 2025.

A copy of the press release, which includes the matters set forth in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and announces information regarding "ex-dividend" trading of shares of the Company's common stock and "when-issued" trading of shares of Solstice's common stock, is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

The information contained in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>Exchange Act</u>"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of Section 18. Furthermore, the information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.

**Item 8.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other Events**

On September 30, 2025, Solstice issued 5.625% Senior Notes due 2033 in an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion (the "<u>Notes</u>"), issued pursuant to an indenture dated September 30, 2025 among Solstice, the guarantors named therein, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the "<u>Indenture</u>"). The Notes were sold in private placements to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.625% per year. The proceeds from the Notes offering will be held in escrow until satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the Spin-Off and certain other escrow release conditions. If such conditions are not met by March 31, 2026, the Notes will be redeemed at 100% of principal plus accrued interest. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Solstice, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of its domestic subsidiaries and, from and after the escrow release date, will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of Solstice's existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantees Solstice's senior credit facilities.

Solstice will pay interest on the Notes on March 31 and September 30 of each year. The first such payment will be made on March 31, 2026. The Notes will mature on September 30, 2033. Solstice may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after September 30, 2028 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture. Solstice may also redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes on or prior to September 30, 2028 in an amount equal to the net proceeds from certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the Indenture.

Prior to September 30, 2028, Solstice may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus the applicable "make-whole" premium set forth in the Indenture. Upon certain events constituting a change of control under the Indenture, the holders of the Notes will have the right to require Solstice to offer to repurchase the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to (but not including) the date of purchase.

The Indenture, among other things, limits Solstice's ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock and make other restricted payments; make investments; consummate certain asset sales; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; grant or assume certain liens; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of Solstice's assets.

------

The Indenture also provides for customary events of default, which, if any of them occurs, may cause the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes to become, or to be declared, due and payable. Events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), include, among others, nonpayment of principal or interest, breach of other covenants or agreements in the Indenture, failure to pay certain other indebtedness, failure to pay certain final judgments, failure of certain guarantees to be enforceable and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency.

**HONEYWELL BOARD OF DIRECTORS SETS RECORD DATE AND ANNOUNCES EXPECTED TIMING FOR SPIN-OFF OF SOLSTICE ADVANCED MATERIALS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*• Solstice completes $1 billion senior notes offering in connection with the planned spin-off* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*• Record date set for October 17, 2025* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*• Distribution expected to occur on October 30, 2025, with shareowners of record expected to receive one share of Solstice common stock for every four shares of Honeywell common stock owned*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*• Solstice expected to begin trading on Nasdaq on October 30, 2025, under the ticker symbol "SOLS"*

CHARLOTTE, N.C., October 1, 2025 -- Honeywell **(NASDAQ: HON)** today announced that its Board of Directors has set a record date of October 17, 2025 for the previously announced spin-off of Solstice Advanced Materials.

To execute the spin-off, Honeywell will distribute all of the issued and outstanding shares of Solstice common stock pro rata to Honeywell shareowners of record on the Record Date. The Board expects the distribution to occur at 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on October 30, 2025, on the basis of a distribution ratio of one share of Solstice common stock for every four shares of Honeywell common stock held as of the close of business on the Record Date.

Following the distribution, Solstice common stock is expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on October 30, 2025, under the ticker symbol "SOLS." Honeywell will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "HON."

"We look forward to beginning our journey as a standalone company on October 30," said David Sewell, President and CEO of the Solstice Advanced Materials business. "With a leading portfolio of refrigerants, semiconductor materials, protective fibers, healthcare packaging solutions and unique nuclear power capabilities—Solstice is well positioned to deliver long-term value for our shareowners while helping our customers address some of the world's most pressing challenges."

Completion of the spin-off is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including, among other things, the Board having declared the distribution, as set forth in the form of Separation and Distribution Agreement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>") as part of the registration statement on Form 10, which was also declared effective by the SEC on September 30, 2025.

The spin-off is expected to be tax-free to Honeywell shareowners for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except for cash that shareowners may receive in lieu of fractional shares.

**<u>When-Issued Trading Market</u>**

Honeywell anticipates that Solstice common stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "SOLS WI" on a "when-issued" basis on or about October 20, 2025. Solstice common stock is expected to begin "regular-way" trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "SOLS" on October 30, 2025.

Shares of Honeywell common stock are expected to continue to trade "regular-way" on the Nasdaq under the current ticker symbol "HON" from the Record Date through the Distribution Date. However, beginning on October 20, 2025 and continuing through October 29, 2025, it is expected that there will be two markets in Honeywell common stock on the Nasdaq: a "regular-way" market under Honeywell's current ticker symbol "HON," in which Honeywell shares will trade with the right to receive shares of Solstice common stock on the Distribution Date, and an "ex distribution" market under the ticker symbol "HON WI", in which Honeywell shares will trade without the right to receive shares of Solstice common stock on the Distribution Date.

Honeywell shareowners are encouraged to consult their financial advisors regarding the specific implications of buying, selling or holding shares of Honeywell common stock on or before the Distribution Date.

**<u>Completion of Solstice's $1 Billion Senior Notes Offering</u>**

Honeywell also announced today the successful closing of Solstice's offering of $1 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes, issued by Solstice in connection with the planned spin-off. As disclosed in Honeywell's press release dated September 16, 2025 with respect to the pricing of the senior notes offering, the senior notes bear interest at a rate of 5.625% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 31 and September 30 of each year, beginning on March 31, 2026, and will mature on September 30, 2033.

**<u>Solstice Investor Day to Be Held October 8</u>**

As previously announced, Solstice will host an Investor Day during the afternoon of October 8, 2025, in New York City. During the event, members of the leadership team will provide details on Solstice's specialty businesses, future growth prospects and compelling financial model.

The event will also highlight Solstice's differentiated product portfolio, including Solstice® low-global-warming-potential refrigerants, Spectra® high-performance fibers, Hydranal® analytical reagents, and Aclar® pharmaceutical packaging solutions.

A live webcast of the event, along with related presentation materials, will be available through the Investor Relations section of Honeywell's website at <u>www.honeywell.com/investor</u>. A replay will remain accessible for 30 days following the event.
