WM Q3 Deep Dive: Margin Pressures and Healthcare Integration Shape Outlook
Update: 2025-10-29
Description
Waste Management's Q3 earnings showed mixed results, with revenue up 15% but missing analyst expectations. Earnings per share were slightly below expectations, and operating margin slipped. The company's core business performed well, but the Healthcare Solutions division underperformed due to delayed price hikes and customer credits. Despite the misses, adjusted EBITDA met expectations, and full-year guidance is in line. Investors reacted negatively, causing the stock to drop. The company's long-term story remains solid, with technology upgrades, fleet modernization, automation, and renewable natural gas projects expected to improve margins and cash flow. Key factors to watch include the successful integration of Healthcare Solutions, the profitability of recycling, and progress on tech and sustainability investments.
