Past

    Actual outcome: Bear · $61.76 at outcome

    AECOM reported an EPS of -0.67, matching the estimate, but the stock fell sharply due to ongoing securities fraud investigations and a $337 million pre-tax charge from project delays. These negative developments overshadowed the earnings report, leading to a bearish price reaction.

  • Tue4Aug

    Actual outcome: Bull · $94.08 at outcome

    AECOM met EPS estimates of $0.57 and reported a 9% year-over-year increase in its total backlog to $25.96 billion, boasting a strong 1.5x book-to-burn ratio. This robust backlog growth, combined with securing a key role in Seattle's $1 billion transit modernization project, reinforced long-term revenue visibility and drove the stock well above the bull target.
