Stantec: Management Is Optimistic About The Future

Summary Stantec has grown its adjusted EPS at a CAGR of 16% from 2019 to 2023. Stantec had a strong 2023 with net revenue rising 14% year over year to C$5.1 billion, and adjusted diluted EPS rising 17% year over year to C$3.67. Management sees a strong 2024, and has a goal of growing adjusted diluted EPS at a CAGR in the range of 15% to 18% for its 2024-2026 strategic plan. In my view, the market is pricing in several years of fairly rapid adjusted EPS growth into Stantec's valuation, given the forward PE of 27.17 for 2024.
