更新:受買入SECURE Waste Infrastructure影響,GFL在美國盤前交易下跌2.5%。

-- (更新股價,並在第四段和第五段補充Stifel Canada對彭博社報導中提及GFL收購Secure的評論) GFL Environmental Inc.(NYSE:GFL)週一宣布已同意以每股24.75加元的價格收購SECURE Waste Infrastructure Corp.(多倫多證券交易所代碼:SES.TO)所有已發行和流通在外的普通股,企業價值約為64億加元。截至發稿時,該公司股價在美國盤前交易下跌2.5%。 GFL在聲明中表示,此交易的對價將以80%的GFL附屬投票權股份和20%的現金支付。聲明還補充說,此次交易將根據《阿爾伯塔省商業公司法》透過一項安排計畫實施。 GFL表示,此次交易將立即提升公司盈利,調整後每股自由現金流將增長12%至15%,並使其財務狀況“極具吸引力”,調整後EBITDA利潤率將提升至31.6%,調整後自由現金流轉化率(按備考基準計算)將達到40.5%至42.5%之間。 Stifel Canada指出,彭博社曾通報GFL可能以每股24.50美元的價格收購SECURE,該價格較上週五收盤價溢價15%,但略低於其26.00美元的目標價。 Stifel Canada也指出,根據2026年的估值,隱含估值倍數(EV/EBITDA)為12倍,市盈率(P/E)為25.5倍。 Stifel Canada表示:「如果GFL的收購要約最終達成,那將是一筆不錯的交易,但考慮到SES的成長前景,我們認為其價格可能略高一些。目前尚無法確定交易能否完成,但SES股價今日有望大幅上漲,GFL對SES的潛在興趣也確實增強了我們的投資邏輯。我們一直認為,SECURE的業務在過去五年中已顯著增強了其住宅和工業領域的工業。 SES股價上週五收盤上漲0.07加元,漲幅0.33%,報21.36加元。 GFL股價上週五在加拿大和美國均下跌超過3%。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Saudi Shares Start Week Higher; US-Iran Peace Talks Canceled

The Tadawul All Share Index closed Sunday 0.11% higher as investors assessed the latest updates regarding the conflict in the Middle East.US President Donald Trump said on his Truth Social account that the Pakistani trip for his envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, was canceled. The announcement dimmed the hopes for peace talks between Iran and the US to happen any time soon.Further to this, Israel launched an attack in Lebanon on April 25. The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
