Waste Management Inc (WM) has released a mixed Q3 2025 report, noting some record EBITDA margins but also revealing reductions in forecasts, mainly in recycling and healthcare-related segments. This led to drops in the stock price, despite the company opening a new $62M AI-driven recycling facility in Fort Worth. Alongside these swings, various banks including UBS, Citigroup, Barclays, JP Morgan and Scotiabank have cut their price targets for WM. Citigroup still offers an optimistic price target of $270, but the majority seem to hover around the $230-225 mark. There are some hopeful signs, with WM reporting its confidence in its full-year outlook and strong Q3 financial performance. Additionally, WM has updated its recycling report revealing U.S. recycling rates. Despite these silver linings, some analysts predict a slow growth ahead for WM, indicating some reservations about the company's premium valuation narrative.
