Trevor Romeo has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, including Republic Services’ ability to maintain strong core execution despite facing external challenges. The company exceeded expectations in adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS, which indicates robust operational performance even though revenue was slightly below projections. This resilience is a key factor in the positive outlook.
Furthermore, the management’s forecast for 2026 suggests continued underlying growth, with anticipated revenue increases and margin expansion. Although there are concerns about nonrecurring disaster cleanup volumes and lower recycled commodity prices, the ongoing development of RNG and Polymer Center volumes, along with a strong M&A pipeline, are expected to contribute to future growth. Additionally, the company’s ramped-up share buyback program could provide further upside potential, reinforcing the Buy recommendation.
In another report released today, Stifel Nicolaus also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $251.00 price target.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 73 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is neutral on the stock.
