Bank of America Securities analyst Andrew Obin maintains a Buy rating for Honeywell International's stock due to its undervalued quantum computing potential and market re-rating. Honeywell's 54% stake in Quantinuum, a quantum computing firm, could be worth around $10 billion, contributing to the stock's undervaluation. As the quantum computing sector grows, investors see an opportunity to buy Honeywell stock at a discount.

Honeywell International Inc. (NASDAQ: HON) stock saw a 1% increase on Wednesday following a Bloomberg report that its quantum computing venture, Quantinuum, is exploring a fundraising round at a valuation of approximately $10 billion [1]. According to sources familiar with the matter, Quantinuum is in discussions with existing investors and potential new backers about raising capital in the hundreds of millions of dollars. The reported $10 billion valuation would represent a significant increase from the $5 billion pre-money valuation achieved during its January 2024 funding round, when the company raised $300 million in a round led by JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: JPM) [2].

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA), the semiconductor giant, is reportedly among the companies approached about potentially investing in Quantinuum, though deliberations are ongoing with no certainty of reaching an agreement [1]. Quantinuum was formed in 2021 through the merger of Cambridge Quantum and Honeywell Quantum Solutions [2].
