A quality valuation analysis on $WM *🧘🏽‍♂️

•NTM P/E Ratio: 24.97x
•5-Year Mean: 27.63x

•NTM FCF Yield: 4.38%
•5-Year Mean: 3.13%

As you can see, $WM appears to be trading below fair value

Going forward, investors can receive ~10% MORE in EPS & ~40% MORE FCF per share 🧠***

Before we get into valuation, let’s take a look at why $WM is a good business

•Accounts Receivable: $3.39B

•2021: 13%
•2022: 14%
•2023: 15%
•2024: 12%

$WM maintains decent returns on capital

By reducing its shares outstanding by 11%, $WM increased its EPS by 12% (assuming 0 growth)

MARGINS🆗
•LTM Gross Margins: 40.0%
•LTM Operating Margins: 18.3%
•LTM Net Income Margins: 10.3%

***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~10% MORE in EPS & ~40% MORE FCF per share

Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $WM has to grow earnings at a 12.49% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation

Today, analysts anticipate 2026 - 2028 EPS growth over the next few years to be lower than the (12.49%) required growth rate:

2025E: $7.50 (4% YoY) *FY Dec

2026E: $8.34 (11% YoY)
2027E: $9.47 (13% YoY)
2028E: $10.12 (7% YoY)

$WM has an excellent track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so let’s assume $WM ends 2028 with $10.12 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

27x P/E: $273💵 … ~11.9% CAGR

26x P/E: $263💵 … ~10.6% CAGR

25x P/E: $253💵 … ~9.3% CAGR

24x P/E: $243💵 … ~7.9% CAGR

23x P/E: $233💵 … ~6.5% CAGR

22x P/E: $223💵 … ~5.0% CAGR

As you can see, $WM appears to have attractive return potential if we assume a 27x earnings multiple

Given its quality & more recent historical averages, a >27x multiple appears reasonable for $WM

However, $WM commonly traded for ~23x from 2015-2019, a period where revenue, EPS, & FCF grew at a 4.5%, 13.9%, & 9.9% CAGR, respectively

$WM future growth estimates aren’t as strong as they used to be so it’s possible to see its multiple compress further, leaving us with minimal margin of safety at 27x

Today, at $200💵 $WM appears to be a fair consideration for investment

$WM could appeal to investors looking for a stable dividend grower (or offset tech correlation) that requires little to no oversight, although it will most likely compound at a 7% - 9% CAGR from here

Those whose primary objective is total return, at $175💵 $WM offers a stronger margin of safety, supporting an ~11% CAGR while assuming a 23x multiple
