MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Republic Services, Inc. for these reasons:

  • The company's revenue of $4.24 billion fell slightly short of analysts' expectations, which may raise concerns about future growth and market conditions.
  • Despite a solid net margin of 12.97%, the company's growth rate of 4.6% compared to the same quarter last year may not be sufficient to attract aggressive growth investors.
  • The stock has a relatively high price-to-earnings (PE) ratio of 34.73, which could indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, making it less attractive for value investors.
  • Market volatility and economic uncertainties could impact the company's performance, especially in the environmental services sector, which is sensitive to economic cycles.
  • While institutional ownership is high at 57.73%, any significant sell-off by major investors could negatively affect the stock price and investor sentiment.
