AECOM Guides FY26 Adj EPS $3.95-$4.15 After Surprise Q3 Loss
ACM is trading near its 52-week low of $66.28 (3.7% above the low).
Summary
AECOM issued full-year adjusted EPS guidance of $3.95 to $4.15, following a surprise Q3 adjusted loss of 50 cents per share reported earlier today. The company sees FY26 total NSR1 between $7.3 billion and $7.35 billion and is projecting FY free cash flow of about $300 million. The guidance implies a sharp ramp in Q4 earnings to meet the annual target, suggesting management expects a significant recovery. This comes as the stock trades near its 52-week low of $66.28, down from a high of $135.52. The earlier Q3 loss was a stark reversal from strong prior-quarter EPS, and the new guidance provides a concrete benchmark for the turnaround. The company recently secured a $500 million credit facility and a DHS contract, but the near-term earnings miss and lowered outlook will dominate trader attention.
