Waste Connections stock (ISIN CA9628791027) traded at USD 155.55 on the New York Stock Exchange on September 22, 2026, after the company reported second-quarter revenue of USD 2.56 billion. The shares were down 7.4 percent from the reporting date, according to Yahoo Finance on September 22, 2026.

Revenue reaches USD 2.56 billion

Waste Connections generated USD 2.56 billion in revenue in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 6.4 percent from the same quarter a year earlier. The result exceeded analyst expectations by 0.9 percent, while the company also surpassed estimates for earnings per share and EBITDA, Yahoo Finance reported on September 22, 2026.

The combination of higher sales and estimate beats gives the quarterly report a more detailed reading than the share-price reaction alone. Revenue growth remained positive at 6.4 percent, but the 7.4 percent decline in the stock after the report shows that investors had already priced in part of the operating performance by September 22, 2026.

Stock reaction outweighs sales growth

Waste Connections operates collection, disposal and recycling services across the United States and Canada and is described by Yahoo Finance as North America's third-largest waste management company on September 22, 2026. For investors, the key comparison is therefore between the 6.4 percent year-over-year revenue increase and the 7.4 percent post-report share decline.

That gap places the emphasis on the next evidence from earnings rather than on revenue growth alone. The available second-quarter figures show a USD 2.56 billion sales base, a 6.4 percent annual increase and a 0.9 percent beat against expectations, while the market response remained negative at 7.4 percent.
