History
Resideo was formed in 2018 as a spin-off from Honeywell's Homes and Distribution business during a corporate restructuring, with shares trading on NYSE under REZI. Roger Fradin became board chair and Mike Nefkens president and CEO; headquarters established in Austin, Texas. Key acquisitions include Buoy Labs (2019, water leak detection, later discontinued) and Whisker Labs technology (2019, energy efficiency). The company builds on 130 years of Honeywell heritage in home controls.1236
