Quiddity Leaderboard F100/F250 Sep25: ~10 Regular & Intra-Review Changes Likely in September

By Janaghan Jeyakumar, CFA

  • In this insight, we take a look at the potential index changes for F100 and F250 in the run-up to the September 2025 index rebal event.
  • Our latest estimates suggest there could be two regular changes for F100 and six regular changes for F250 during the September 2025 rebalance.
  • After that, we expect multiple M&A-related intra-review changes over the next few weeks.

Honeywell Files Form 10 for the Spin-Off of Solstice Advanced Materials (SOLS)

By Garvit Bhandari

  • Honeywell submitted a Form 10 registration statement to the SEC on August 21, formally initiating the planned separation of Solstice Advanced Materials as a standalone company
  • The new entity will focus on specialty materials such as refrigerants, semiconductor materials, protective fibers, and healthcare packaging.
  • Honeywell retains Aerospace Technologies, Industrial Automation, Building Automation, and the non-Advanced-Materials pieces of Energy & Sustainability Solutions.

The Beat Ideas: Scoda Tubes – Ready to Double Capacity, But Can It Deliver?

By Sudarshan Bhandari

  • Scoda Tubes is doubling seamless capacity and scaling welded capacity to 20,068 MTPA and 13,150 MTPA by FY27, with trial runs from H2 FY26.
  • This expansion positions Scoda to grow 2.5–3x industry pace, capture global demand, and strengthen its competitive edge against larger peers.
  • Scoda’s integrated operations and strong export growth improve long-term visibility, making Scoda a potential re-rating candidate. 

The Beat Ideas: SJS Enterprises, A Niche Premiumisation Play

By Sudarshan Bhandari

  • Management reiterated a plan to double revenues in 3–4 years, anchored on premiumisation, global expansion, and synergies from the Walter Pack acquisition.
  • Decorative aesthetics is gaining relevance as OEMs push differentiation via design, while exports de-risk domestic cyclicality.
  • The growth vision is credible, but execution in integrating Walter Pack, sustaining >25% EBITDA margins, and scaling exports to ~15% of sales will determine delivery.
