What the Analysts think about GFL
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for GFL Environmental stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of GFL Environmental stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
GFL delivered 16.3% second-quarter revenue growth, including 6.4% organic growth and 6.1% core pricing. It raised full-year guidance for the second time, now targeting about $900 million of adjusted free cash flow and a 30.5% adjusted EBITDA margin. (GFL Environmental, Resource Recycling)
The completed SECURE acquisition expands GFL’s Western Canadian infrastructure platform and adds more than 2,000 employees and specialised assets. Management expects the deal to accelerate its multi-year targets, while the combined scale should create more capacity for future capital deployment. (GFL Environmental, Waste Dive)
Two large investor groups are reportedly pursuing GFL, and the board’s special committee is reviewing the proposals. A competitive process, combined with the chief executive’s willingness to consider a higher-valued take-private offer, creates a potential premium catalyst for shareholders. (Bloomberg, The Globe and Mail)
Net leverage rose to about 4.0 times by the end of June, up from 3.4 times at 2025 year-end, after heavy acquisition spending. The SECURE deal also added a US$1 billion term loan, leaving less room for error if cash flow or earnings disappoint. (Resource Recycling, GFL Environmental)
Underlying volume remains soft: construction and demolition landfill volumes fell 10% in the second quarter, and management now expects full-year volumes to decline by roughly 0.5%. Higher diesel costs are also weighing on margins, even after surcharges began to offset the ongoing increase. (Yahoo Finance, Resource Recycling)
The growth story relies heavily on acquisitions rather than volumes: acquisitions contributed 14.1 percentage points of US revenue growth in the quarter, while adjusted net income fell year on year. Investors still need to see whether SECURE can be integrated and generate returns above the cost of its new debt and 75 million-plus new shares. (Resource Recycling, Insider Monkey)
