Analyst projections of the future price of Perma-Fix Environmental Services stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Treatment backlog reached $19.6 million at September 2026, up about 65% from year-end 2025, while Perma-Fix Northwest has started receiving both liquid and dry waste from Hanford’s DFLAW facility. The DOE has identified it to treat DFLAW effluent on an interim basis expected to last about ten years, giving the business a route to sustained work as volumes ramp up. (Perma-Fix)
The Services segment grew third-quarter revenue 46% year on year to $6.3 million, lifted gross margin to 12.2% from 6.7% and returned to operating income. Its two-year Lawrence Livermore agreement, estimated at about $24 million, and project backlog extending into 2027 provide a growing second source of work. (SEC, The Motley Fool)
A Hanford subcontract makes Perma-Fix eligible to compete for tank-waste task orders from 2027 through 2041, and its facility sits next to the site. That proximity and its existing treatment infrastructure could help it win work, although the multi-company contract ceiling is shared and no volume is guaranteed. (Perma-Fix)
Treatment remains a major drag: in the third quarter its revenue fell 11.5% year on year and it recorded a gross loss, as lower waste volumes left fixed costs spread across less work. Treatment gross margin was negative 20.6% for the first nine months of 2026, versus positive 12.1% a year earlier. (SEC)
The company reported $17.0 million of pre-tax losses and used $10.8 million of operating cash in the first nine months of 2026. Despite a May equity raise, management said substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern remains, leaving further financing or cost cuts a risk if results do not improve. (SEC)
The outlook depends heavily on government work: federal customers represented about 66% of revenue in the first nine months of 2026, and the company says shipment volumes and project timing are not assured. The Hanford tank-waste subcontract also has no guaranteed task orders, so delayed appropriations or procurement could defer the expected growth. (SEC)
