What Does the ADI Spinoff Mean for Resideo?

The spinoff positions Resideo as a focused building technologies company, ending its role as parent to a global distribution business. The company points to its brand portfolio, relationships with pros and 140-year history as the foundation for this next chapter.

“With trusted and iconic brands, deep relationships with pros and a 140-year heritage of innovation, Resideo is poised to start this next chapter as a pure-play building technologies company,” says Tom Surran, president and chief executive officer of Resideo.

“With dedicated strategic, operational and financial focus, we are ready to capture the profitable growth opportunities ahead and drive above market growth and sustained margin expansion,” he says.

How Did Resideo Complete the ADI Spinoff?

Resideo completed the spinoff by distributing all issued and outstanding shares of ADI common stock to Resideo shareholders on the basis of one share of ADI common stock for every two shares of Resideo common stock held as of the close of business on the July 20, 2026, record date.

Shareholders of record also receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares to which they would otherwise be entitled.

Where Will ADI and Resideo Stock Trade?

Resideo will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol REZI, and ADI common stock begins “regular-way” trading Aug. 4, 2026, on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol ADIG.

Both companies now operate as independent, publicly traded entities.

How Much Debt Did Resideo Repay in the Spinoff?

Resideo repaid $900 million of outstanding principal under its Term Loan B credit facility in connection with the spinoff. The company expects to repay approximately $200 million more under the same facility following the post-closing cash adjustment under its separation agreement with ADI.

Resideo expects to make that repayment by the end of Q3.

The company also reduced its outstanding Series A Cumulative Convertible Participating Preferred Stock by 150,000 shares, leaving 350,000 shares outstanding, with a proportional adjustment to the conversion price.

What Is the Scale of ADI as an Independent Company?

ADI enters independence as a global specialty distributor of professionally installed low-voltage products, serving residential and commercial markets through an omnichannel platform. Its categories include security, residential and professional audiovisual, fire and life safety and data communications products.

ADI reported $4.8 billion in revenue in 2025 and has about 4,100 employees. The distributor offers more than 500,000 products from more than 1,000 suppliers and serves more than 100,000 customers through a network of nearly 200 global store locations.

What Does the Spinoff Mean for ADI’s Future?

The spinoff gives ADI the freedom to operate as an independent specialty distribution company with its own strategic direction. ADI leadership points to customer and supplier relationships, its omnichannel platform and its workforce as the basis for growth.

“Today marks a pivotal milestone for ADI as we are officially an independent specialty distribution company,” says Rob Aarnes, president and chief executive officer of ADI. “We have a long legacy of industry leadership, built on trusted customer and supplier relationships, a differentiated omnichannel platform and the best talent in the industry.

“With strong momentum and a clear go-forward strategic path, ADI is poised to generate above market revenue growth and meaningful long-term value for our shareholders,” he says.
