By: IPVM Team, Published on Oct 15, 2018

 

ADI is one of the most powerful distributors in the security industry but how big are they? How much profit do they make? How much do they sell of Honeywell vs 3rd party products?

As part of Resideo, ADI and Honeywell Home are being spun out. IPVM reviewed the company's newest financials disclosures to answer these questions plus looks at the company's plan to prioritize W-Box growth.
