For the current year, analysts expect RSG to report EPS of $7.27, up 3.6% from $7.02 in fiscal 2025. Its EPS is expected to rise 10.3% year over year to $8.02 in fiscal 2027.
RSG stock has underperformed the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 20.6% gains over the past 52 weeks, with shares down 8.7% during this period. Similarly, it underperformed the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund's (XLI) 20.7% gains over the same time frame.
Republic Services has underperformed the broader market over the past year as investors reacted to its slowing growth profile. The company's revenue growth has decelerated, sales volumes have remained largely flat, signaling weaker demand, and analysts expect only modest revenue growth over the next year. Moreover, its premium valuation and the lack of meaningful near-term growth catalysts have weighed on investor sentiment despite the company's stable underlying business.
Analysts' consensus opinion on RSG stock is moderately bullish, with a "Moderate Buy" rating overall. Out of 26 analysts covering the stock, 12 advise a "Strong Buy" rating, two suggest a "Moderate Buy," and 12 give a "Hold." RSG's average analyst price target is $246.52, indicating a potential upside of 12.5% from the current price levels.
