Most Popular Narrative: 38.1% Undervalued

According to the most widely followed narrative, Arcadis’s fair value stands in sharp contrast to its current share price. This implies there is potential for a substantial upside if projections play out as expected. Enthusiasm around digital transformation and multi-year public spending are at the heart of this story.

“Robust investment in digitalization, including proprietary platforms (EDA, EDA Lite), AI, and enterprise asset management, is enhancing Arcadis' capabilities in smart infrastructure. This is enabling cross-selling, greater recurring revenues, and supporting structural margin improvement. Public sector spending reviews in the UK, US, Canada, and Europe have removed near-term uncertainty and unlocked large-scale project pipelines (e.g., AMP8 water, defense, rail, and urban infrastructure) that are expected to drive revenue acceleration and support earnings visibility into 2026 and beyond.”
