FSS Earnings Call
Q4 2026
0:00 / 0:00
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call highlighted broad-based, record-setting financial performance across revenue, EBITDA, EPS, orders, and cash generation, driven by strong organic growth, segment execution (ESG and SSG), and strategic M&A (New Way and MEGA). Management provided constructive 2026 guidance and emphasized balance-sheet flexibility. Near-term headwinds are mostly related to acquisition and integration costs, acquired backlog that inflates short-term orders, amortization and tax normalization, and the mechanical transition away from third-party refuse sales (an $80M backlog unwind). On balance, the positives — including robust top-line and margin expansion, strong cash flow, and clear synergy targets — materially outweigh the manageable near-term challenges.View all FSS earnings summariesFSS Stock 12 Month Forecast
