Research Alert: CFRA Retains Buy Opinion On Shares Of Waste Connections Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We update our 12-month target to CAD272 from CAD293, valuing shares with a multiple that is more in line with peers: 14.2x our estimated 2027 EBITDA outlook. We have maintained our 2026 and 2027 EPS forecasts at USD5.72 and USD6.49, respectively. WCN delivered strong Q1 results that exceeded expectations and aligned with our Buy thesis on shares. WCN's secondary market positioning, exposure to specialized waste streams, and focus on quality contracts is enabling solid waste pricing that is supporting both top- and bottom-line expansion. Solid waste core pricing of 6% supported growth, while the company strategically shed lower-margin volumes (down 1.5%), prioritizing profitability over volume - a trend we view favorably across the waste industry. Coupled with a more attractive valuation following a 17% one-year decline, we see upside in shares amid potential commodity price improvements, accretive M&A, and AI investments for operational benefits.
