Casella Waste Systems, Inc. files SEC reports that document its regional solid waste, recycling, and resource management business, its Nasdaq-listed Class A common stock, and recurring corporate events. Form 8-K filings furnish quarterly and fiscal-year operating results and record material events such as equipment lease and financing arrangements, executive changes, and revenue bond remarketing or redemption activity.
Casella’s proxy filings describe annual meeting proposals, director elections, advisory executive-compensation votes, board governance, and stockholder voting procedures. The filing record also documents capital-structure matters tied to its common stock, subsidiaries, guarantees, equipment financing, and solid waste disposal revenue bonds used in the company’s operations.
Casella Waste Systems reported higher revenue but mixed earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Total revenues were about $543.7 million, up from roughly $465.3 million a year earlier, and $1.0 billion for the first six months versus $882.4 million, driven mainly by growth in collection and solid waste services.
Operating income was $20.0 million for the quarter and $24.8 million year‑to‑date, only modestly above prior‑year levels as higher depreciation, amortization and acquisition‑related costs offset revenue gains. Quarterly net income was $3.8 million, but the company recorded a six‑month net loss of $1.8 million, compared with a small profit in the prior‑year period.
Casella completed four acquisitions in the first half of 2026 with an aggregate purchase price of about $400 million, adding $252.1 million of goodwill and expanding its Eastern, Western, Mid‑Atlantic and Resource Solutions operations. These deals and elevated capital spending contributed to roughly $400.8 million of acquisition cash outlays, a $161.0 million net operating cash inflow, and increased total debt to about $1.36 billion, including $185.0 million drawn on the revolving credit facility. The company remains in compliance with its debt covenants and continues to carry sizable landfill closure and environmental remediation liabilities while managing ongoing permitting and legal proceedings at several landfill projects.
Casella Waste Systems, Inc. reported Q2 2026 revenue of $543.7 million, up 16.9% year over year, driven by acquisitions, higher collection and disposal pricing, increased landfill volumes and Resource Solutions growth. Solid waste pricing rose 5.5%, including 5.8% collection and 4.7% disposal price increases.
GAAP net income for the quarter was $3.8 million versus $5.2 million a year earlier, while Adjusted Net Income increased to $25.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA grew 12.5% to $123.2 million, with a 22.7% margin, and year‑to‑date net cash from operating activities rose to $161.0 million. Adjusted Free Cash Flow for the first half reached $78.1 million.
The company closed five acquisitions in 2026 representing approximately $165 million of annualized revenues. For full‑year 2026, Casella now expects revenues between $2.090 billion and $2.110 billion, net income between $0 and $6 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $473–$483 million, operating cash flow of $370–$380 million, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $200–$210 million.
