GFL Environmental: A Focus On Profitability with Smart Buyouts, EPR Expansion & A Renewable Push!

GFL Environmental Inc.’s latest quarterly results present a nuanced picture of its current financial standing and strategic direction. The company reported a 12.5% year-over-year increase in revenue, which totaled $1.56 billion for the first quarter. This outperformed the company’s initial 2025 guidance and is attributed to several factors, including effective pricing strategies that achieved a price increase of 5.7%, surpassing their planned estimates. This pricing success contributed significantly to an adjusted EBITDA margin expansion of 120 basis points, marking the highest first-quarter EBITDA margin in GFL’s history.
