Resideo Technologies, Inc. is a publicly traded company (NYSE: REZI) that was formed in 2018 from a spin-off of Honeywell's Homes and ADI Global Distribution businesses. Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, the company manufactures and distributes smart-home technology and security products. For the fiscal year ending in 2025, Resideo reported revenues of approximately $7.5 billion. The company employs around 14,800 people globally.
Resideo operates through two main segments: Products and Solutions, and ADI Global Distribution. The Products and Solutions division creates a wide range of residential and commercial products, including smart thermostats, security systems, video cameras, water leak detectors, and fire and carbon monoxide alarms. Many of these products are sold under the well-known Honeywell Home brand through a long-term licensing agreement, as well as under its own brands like First Alert. The ADI Global Distribution business is a leading wholesale distributor of low-voltage security and fire products for professional contractors.
Based on its litigation history, Resideo is an operating company that defends itself against patent infringement claims. The company has been a defendant in two tracked lawsuits and has not been a plaintiff. Both suits were filed in plaintiff-friendly Texas federal courts. This pattern is typical of a technology manufacturer being targeted by patent assertion entities.
The company's two tracked patent cases were initiated by Ecofactor, Inc. v. Resideo Technologies, Inc. (2022) in the Western District of Texas and IoT Innovations LLC v. Resideo Technologies, Inc. (2025) in the Eastern District of Texas. The technologies involved in these suits align with Resideo's core smart-home and connected-device markets.
