GFL Environmental Inc. reported higher revenue and cash flow but a continued net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Revenue from continuing operations rose to $1,643.8 million from $1,560.1 million, driven by price increases and acquisitions, partly offset by weaker commodity prices, lower volumes and FX headwinds.
Adjusted EBITDA increased to $478.5 million from $426.1 million, reflecting margin improvements in Canada and cost efficiencies, while the U.S. margin was broadly stable. GFL recorded a net loss from continuing operations of $219.2 million, similar to the $213.9 million loss a year earlier, as higher non-cash foreign exchange losses and a negative revaluation of a call option offset lower interest expense and SG&A.
Cash on hand increased sharply to $1,436.2 million, largely funded by higher long-term debt, which rose to $9,375.1 million. The company continued its acquisition strategy, closing three small deals during the quarter and, after quarter-end, agreeing to acquire SECURE Waste Infrastructure Corp. and announcing five additional immaterial acquisitions.
GFL Environmental reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $1,643.8 million, up from $1,560.1 million, driven by 4.6% organic growth and 7.0% pricing. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $478.5 million, expanding margin to 29.1%, or 180 basis points.
The company completed eight acquisitions expected to add between $425.0 million and $450.0 million in annualized revenue and raised its full year 2026 guidance to reflect deals closed through April 1, 2026. Net loss from continuing operations was $219.2 million, while Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations was $29.5 million, or $0.08 per share.
Cash increased to $1,436.2 million with long-term debt of $9,375.1 million, resulting in Net Leverage of 3.6x. Adjusted Free Cash Flow was $(24.3) million as GFL continued to invest $386.2 million in property and equipment and $144.3 million in acquisitions.
GFL Environmental Inc. has agreed to acquire all outstanding common shares of Secure Waste Infrastructure Corp. through a statutory plan of arrangement in Alberta. Each Secure share will receive consideration with an implied value of $24.75 plus a mandatory cash amount of $0.0001.
Secure shareholders can elect $24.75 in cash, 0.4195 GFL subordinate voting share, or $4.95 in cash plus 0.3356 GFL share per Secure share, subject to cash and share maximums and related proration, except for the fixed cash/share combination. Existing GFL holders are expected to own about 84% of the combined company, with former Secure shareholders holding about 16%, subject to changes in outstanding shares.
A Secure shareholder meeting is expected on May 27, 2026, with closing targeted for the second half of 2026 and an outside date of November 1, 2026, extendable by up to 90 days for regulatory approvals. The deal requires shareholder, court, competition and stock exchange approvals, limits dissenting shares to 5%, and includes a $200 million termination fee payable by Secure in certain cases and a $20 million expense reimbursement payable by GFL in specified scenarios.
GFL Environmental Inc. has filed materials for its 2026 annual and special shareholder meeting, to be held virtually on May 13, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

The circular highlights 2025 results, including revenue of $6,615.9 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $1,985.0 million (up 12.8% after an environmental services divestiture) and a 30.0% Adjusted EBITDA margin.

GFL Environmental Inc. has agreed to acquire all outstanding common shares of SECURE Waste Infrastructure Corp. for $24.75 per share, valuing SECURE at about $6.4 billion.

The price represents a 23% premium to SECURE’s 60‑day volume‑weighted average share price. SECURE shareholders can elect all‑cash, all‑share or mixed consideration, subject to proration to preserve the 80/20 mix, and are expected to own about 16% of the combined company.
Management expects the acquisition of SECURE’s more than 80 Western Canadian and North Dakota locations and over 2,000 employees to increase GFL’s Adjusted EBITDA margin to 31.6%, lift Adjusted Free Cash Flow conversion to about 40.5%–42.5%, and raise Adjusted Free Cash Flow per share by 12%–15%, while targeting year‑end Net Leverage in the low‑to‑mid 3s.
