Honeywell International Inc. (HON - Free Report) is experiencing softness in the Process Automation and Technology segment.

Also, reduced customer demand in the Middle East due to ongoing geopolitical tensions hurt Honeywell’s results.

3M ve 2. čtvrtletí 2026 zvýšila upravenou provozní marži na 24,9 % díky restrukturalizaci a vyšší produktivitě. Náklady ale rostly: náklady na prodané zboží stouply o 4,7 % a podíl na tržbách na 58,7 %.
Key Takeaways 3M's restructuring and productivity gains lifted adjusted operating margin to 24.9% in Q2 2026.Supply-chain redesign and AI tools are driving its longer-term transformation and efficiency efforts.Higher tariffs, oil prices and PFAS exit costs pushed cost of sales higher, pressuring margin momentum. 3M Company (MMM - Free Report) is taking structural measures to improve operating efficiency and strengthen margins. The company has been reducing the size of its corporate center, streamlining its geographic footprint, simplifying its supply chain, aligning go-to-market models with customers and optimizing manufacturing roles based on production volumes. These initiatives are expected to lower operating costs while supporting margins and cash flow over the long term.
MMM completed most of the restructuring actions by the end of 2025. The company is now shifting its focus toward longer-term transformation, including redesigning its supply-chain network and deploying AI-driven tools across its operations. In the second quarter of 2026, these efforts, combined with strong organic volume and productivity gains, helped lift 3M’s adjusted operating margin by 40 basis points year over year to 24.9%. For 2026, 3M expects adjusted operating margins to expand 70-80 basis points year over year.
However, rising costs could challenge the company’s ability to sustain this margin momentum. In the second quarter of 2026, cost of sales increased 4.7% year over year, while cost of sales as a percentage of total revenues rose 120 basis points to 58.7%. Higher tariff-related costs, rising oil prices and cost dis-synergies associated with the PFAS manufacturing exit contributed to the increase.
Overall, 3M’s restructuring and productivity initiatives are supporting margins, although persistent cost pressures remain a concern. Going forward, continued productivity improvements and cost-control measures are expected to help the company maintain healthy profitability.

3M uvedla, že organické tržby jejího Consumer segmentu ve 2. čtvrtletí 2026 klesly o 2,1 % po poklesu o 1,3 % v 1. čtvrtletí. Slabá poptávka po balení, expression a domácích vylepšeních dál brzdí oživení.
Key Takeaways 3M's Consumer organic sales fell 2.1% in Q2 2026 after declining 1.3% in the first quarter.Weak packaging, expression and home improvement demand continues to weigh on 3M's Consumer segment.3M expects muted hardline spending near term, while Safety and Industrial momentum supports growth. 3M Company (MMM - Free Report) has been grappling with weakness in its Consumer business segment. Softness in the consumer retail end markets, owing to cautious consumer discretionary spending and lower retailer inventory levels, has been a major concern for the segment. This is reflected in the Consumer segment’s organic sales, which decreased 2.1% in the second quarter of 2026, following a decline of 1.3% in the first quarter.
There has been a particular weakness in the packaging & expression and home improvement businesses. Amid this, the Federal Reserve’s cautious approach regarding interest rate adjustments, with the possibility of rate hikes to combat inflation, is expected to further delay the segment’s recovery. Consumer spending on hardline goods is expected to remain muted and hurt the segment’s performance in the near term.
Despite this, 3M is poised to benefit from the continued strength in its Safety and Industrial segment. Strong momentum in abrasives, industrial adhesives and tapes, specialties, roofing granules, personal safety and electrical markets bodes well for the company’s growth in the quarters ahead.

Passive income has a way of quieting the noise. Whether markets are grinding higher, correcting hard, or drifting sideways, a dividend check lands in your account on the schedule the company sets, regardless of what the stock is doing. For investors building a paycheck that arrives without a shift, without a client, and without a manager, dividend equities offer something real estate and private credit cannot: instant liquidity alongside cash flow.
That flexibility matters more when the underlying business is a 120-year-old industrial with global scale, entrenched brands, and a fresh operational reset. 3M (NYSE:MMM | MMM Price Prediction) produces more than 60,000 products under brands including Scotch, Post-it, and Command, and its dividend has been a fixture of income portfolios for generations. The question for buyers today is what a meaningful position actually pays, and whether the payout can hold.
We screened our 24/7 Wall St. dividend equity research database and ran the math on one specific position size that income investors ask about constantly: 1,000 shares of 3M.
The 1,000-Share Math on 3M Current Share Price: $160.53 Current Quarterly Dividend: $0.78 Forward Annual Dividend: $3.12 per share Forward Yield: roughly 1.94% Cost of 1,000 shares: $160,530 Annual Passive Income: $3,120 That $3,120 arrives in four roughly equal quarterly installments, with payment dates consistently falling on the 12th of March, June, September, and December. It is a modest headline yield by high-income standards, and the coverage and trajectory underneath it are what matter.
Why the Aristocrat Label Now Carries an Asterisk 3M spent decades as one of the market’s marquee Dividend Aristocrats, raising its payout every year for more than six decades. That streak broke in 2024. Following the Solventum spin-off, the quarterly dividend was reset from $1.51 in Q1 2024 to $0.70 in Q2 2024, alongside a $17.3875 special dividend paid on April 1, 2024 tied to the separation.
Purists no longer count MMM as an uninterrupted Aristocrat, though the company continues to be treated as a dividend blue chip by most income indexes.
The recovery arc is visible in the check itself. The quarterly rate has climbed from $0.70 in 2024, to $0.73 in 2025, to $0.78 in 2026. Two consecutive annual raises after a reset is exactly the pattern a rebuilding payer wants to establish.

Can the $3,120 Hold? Coverage is the reason to take this payout seriously. CEO William Brown has guided full-year 2026 adjusted EPS to $8.50 to $8.70 against a $3.12 dividend, and the company is targeting adjusted operating cash flow of $5.6 billion to $5.8 billion with adjusted free cash flow of $4.6 billion to $4.8 billion.
3M has posted four consecutive quarterly EPS beats, most recently delivering Q1 2026 adjusted EPS of $2.14 on $6.03 billion in revenue with a 23.8% adjusted operating margin.
Capital return is aggressive relative to the dividend line. 3M sent $2.41 billion back to shareholders in Q1 2026 alone through dividends and buybacks, on top of $4.8 billion returned across full-year 2025. Institutions are voting with size: institutional ownership sits at 77.5% of the float.
The offsetting concern is litigation. 3M made $3.5 billion in net pre-tax cash payments tied to PFAS in 2025 and faces a new lawsuit from the New York Attorney General over PFAS contamination, alongside ongoing Combat Arms earplug obligations. Those liabilities are the reason the payout was reset in the first place, and they remain the single largest variable in this dividend’s forward path.
The Bottom Line on 1,000 Shares A 1,000-share position in 3M requires roughly $160,530 at today’s price and produces about $3,120 in annual passive income at the current quarterly rate. That is a blended yield near 1.94%, backed by a payout ratio comfortably under 40% of guided 2026 adjusted earnings.
For an income investor, the interesting math is the trajectory: two raises since the reset, expanding margins, and free cash flow that dwarfs the dividend leave room for the next hike. The reinvestment case for dividends is compounding, and a growing payout compounds twice: once through the shares purchased, and again through the raises those shares eventually collect.

Options traders are pricing in a 6.6% post-earnings move on Tuesday, slightly below the stock’s average post-earnings swing of 7.2% over the last eight quarters. MMM has finished four of its last eight post-earnings sessions higher, though it dropped 1.9% following its April report.
Options bears have been building their positions over the last 10 weeks. At the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), 3M’s 50-day put/call volume ratio of 1.13 ranks higher than 98% of readings from the past year, signaling an unusually high appetite for puts among options traders. Sentiment appears to be shifting today, however, as 21,000 calls have been exchanged so far – quadruple the call volume MMM typically sees at this point.
Analyst sentiment is mixed. Of the 18 brokerages covering 3M, nine carry a "strong buy" rating, while seven recommend "hold" and two say "strong sell." With the stock back in rally mode and AI optimism providing a fresh catalyst, investors will be eyeing the company’s earnings for clues as to whether that momentum can continue.
Options are understandably expensive heading into the event, per the stock’s Schaeffer’s Volatility Index (SVI) of 34% sitting in the 64th percentile of its annual range. However, it’s worth noting that 3M’s Schaeffer's Volatility Scorecard (SVS) comes in at 10 out of 100. In other words, the stock has consistently realized lower volatility than its options have priced in over the past 12 months, making it a premium selling candidate.
3M v 1. čtvrtletí zvýšila upravené organické tržby v segmentu Safety & Industrial o 3,2 % a provozní marži o 100 bazických bodů. Firma čeká za letošek asi 3% růst organických tržeb a EPS 8,50–8,70 USD.
Key Takeaways 3M's Safety & Industrial segment posted 3.2% adjusted organic sales growth in Q1 2026.MMM's segment margin rose 100 bps on volumes, productivity and capital discipline.3M expects about 3% organic sales growth and EPS of $8.50-$8.70 in 2026. 3M Company (MMM - Free Report) continues to gain from the strong momentum in its Safety & Industrial segment, a key contributor to its growth. An increase in demand across personal safety, industrial adhesives and tapes, abrasives and electrical has been aiding the segment’s momentum. Sales in the personal safety, industrial adhesives and tapes, abrasives and electrical markets collectively increased in the mid-single-digit range in the first three months of 2026.
A rise in demand for electrical infrastructure products like medium voltage cable accessories and insulation tapes also supported performance. The segment’s adjusted organic sales grew 3.2% year over year in the first quarter. Its adjusted operating margin also improved 100 basis points year over year, supported by higher sales volumes, productivity initiatives and disciplined capital allocation. However, continued investments aimed at business expansion and tariffs partially offset the results. Weakness in the roofing granules business is also concerning for 3M.
Backed by strong operational execution, 3M has provided a positive outlook for 2026. The company expects adjusted organic sales growth of about 3% year over year and projects adjusted earnings in the range of $8.50-$8.70 per share, indicating continued earnings growth from 2025 levels.

3M čeká ve 2. čtvrtletí organický růst tržeb výrazně nad 3 % díky silné poptávce a vyššímu objemu zakázek. Bank of America zvýšila odhad EPS pro rok 2026 o 0,10 USD na 8,80 USD.
3M Co (NYSE:MMM) has provided an upbeat assessment of its second quarter performance and demand trends during investor meetings last week, ahead of the release of its report for the period on July 28, according to Bank of America analysts.
Bank of America wrote that the company expressed a constructive view on the second quarter and the remainder of the year, supported by continued order strength and higher backlog levels.
According to the bank, backlog coverage has risen to roughly 27% to 29% of the next quarter's sales, compared with a more typical range of 23% to 24%.
The bank wrote that 3M expects second-quarter organic sales growth to be "solidly" above 3%, noting that sustained order momentum suggests there was limited customer pre-buying in the first quarter.
Demand conditions vary across the company's businesses. Bank of America wrote that 3M Co (NYSE:MMM)ntinues to see strength in its Safety & Industrial Business Group, aided by pricing actions and internal execution, while roofing granules and auto aftermarket markets remain weak.
In the Transportation & Electronics Business Group, weakness in automotive and consumer electronics markets is being offset by growth in data centers, semiconductors and aerospace and defense applications. Consumer point-of-sale trends are stabilizing but remain soft overall.
Bank of America said 3M's margin outlook remains supported by productivity initiatives and price-cost discipline, with additional tailwinds expected through 2027. Based on current pricing and cost dynamics, the company no longer expects to use a previously discussed contingency worth $0.05 to $0.15 per share.
The bank also highlighted growth opportunities tied to 3M's optical intellectual property portfolio, noting that the company has increased its estimate for the total addressable market to $2 billion from $1 billion cited during its first-quarter earnings report.
Following the meetings, Bank of America reiterated its ‘Buy’ rating on 3M and raised its 2026 earnings per share estimate by $0.10 to $8.80.
The bank’s analysts also increased its second-quarter EPS forecast by $0.02 to $2.28, reflecting an expectation for 4.0% organic growth, up from a previous estimate of 3.2%.
