GFL Environmental: Valuation Has Turned Cheap While Fundamentals Remain Strong

Summary I upgrade GFL Environmental to buy, driven by robust pricing power and margin expansion, independent of macro recovery. GFL posted Q1 2026 organic revenue growth of 4.6%, with pricing up 7% and consolidated adj. EBITDA margin expanded 180 bps to 29.1%. SECURE Waste Infrastructure acquisition offers potential upside to FY2026 guidance, with identified CAD25–75 million in synergies and strong volume visibility. GFL trades at 11.5x NTM EBITDA, a discount to peers, while sustaining low-to-mid-teens adj. EBITDA growth and offering attractive risk-reward. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

GFL Environmental: EBITDA Growth Should Accelerate From Here

Summary I recommend a buy rating for GFL Environmental due to expected accelerated EBITDA growth and positive valuation revisions as leverage decreases. The sale of the Environmental Services business is a positive catalyst, expected to provide CAD6 billion post-tax, aiding in debt reduction and share buybacks. Risks include potential headwinds from commodity cost fluctuations, but overall, GFL's EBITDA growth and deleveraging efforts should align its valuation with peers.

GFL Environmental: Poised For Improvement Amid Strong M&A Activity And Expanding Margins

Summary GFL Environmental is a Canadian waste management company positioned to take advantage of industry consolidation and establish local monopolies. The market is underestimating GFL's potential due to high leverage and lack of free cash flow, but the next few years will be pivotal for the company. While the debt balance is high relative to industry peers, it is manageable and should become less of an issue as management de-risks the company and underlying fundamentals improve.
