GFL GFL Environmental Inc.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
GFL reported Q1 2026 revenue of $1,643.8M (+5.4% YoY) and Adjusted EBITDA of $478.5M (+12.3%), but net loss from continuing operations widened to -$219.2M (-$0.63 EPS vs -$0.58). Growth was driven by 7.0% core pricing and acquisitions, partially offset by negative volume, lower commodity prices, and FX headwinds. Debt rose to $9.375B, partly to fund post-quarter acquisitions including the pending SECURE Waste Infrastructure deal.
Actionable Insight
Revenue and EBITDA growth from pricing and M&A are positive, but net loss persistence, negative volume, and a sharp debt increase warrant caution. Monitor Q2 for volume recovery and integration of recent acquisitions (especially SECURE Waste). The stock has historically underperformed following positive filings, suggesting limited near-term upside.
