The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 10, 2026 (estimated)

Brightview Holdings, Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 1.5% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of -0.9%. Where it stands out: change in share count of -1.8% ranks 3 of 16 environmental & facilities services companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$3.6 per share in the base case (~$0.3–$8.0 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Results well short of expectations: Reported earnings per share missed the analysts' consensus estimate by 42% in the quarter to 2026-06-30.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Highlights

How we pick these

Strengths

  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 1.8% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 3 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Burning cash. Free cash flow was -0.9% of revenue over the last 12 months.
  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 57 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.
  • Gross margin slipping. Gross margin is down 2.0 points on a year ago.
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was -121% of net income over the last 12 months.
  • Below peers: revenue growth. Revenue growth of 1.5% ranks 13 of 17 environmental & facilities services companies we cover (median 6.0%).
