Summary Tetra Tech's stock correction due to USAID concerns appears overdone as USAID is just ~10% of its revenue and TTEK continues to see healthy secular growth trends in remaining businesses.

Tetra Tech: High Quality Business Selling At Fair Value
Summary Tetra Tech (TTEK) is a highly cash-productive business with strong capital efficiency, earning high returns on capital and offering a favorable risk/reward profile. The company has a robust historical growth record, driven by efficient capital allocation and competitive advantages in the water treatment and environmental consulting sectors. TTEK's valuation is fair at 28x NOPAT in my view, with intrinsic worth estimated between $45-$54/share, making it a buy for a 3-year horizon.
