- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($43.93). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- The model range is unusually wide ($43.93 to $115.05). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid quality (53/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.

Analysis
GFL Environmental Inc (GFL) currently trades at $41.32, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $115.05, implying the stock looks roughly 178.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, GFL Environmental Inc generated revenue of $6.7B at a net margin of 3.1%. Revenue grew 5.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.0%. Net debt stands at $7.8B. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $43.93 (bear case) to $115.05 (bull case); at $41.32, the current price sits below that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 20% below its 52-week high and 24% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -41% fair-value upside, at 178%, GFL screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 23 models by family
Widest divergence: Economic Profit ($268.37) versus Dividend Discount ($1.43). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
