Q4 2026 outlook is CAD 4.10B–CAD 4.45B net revenue and CAD 810M–CAD 850M adjusted EBITDA.
The 19% adjusted EBITDA margin target for 2027 is expected to be reached in 2026, allowing selective investment in talent and capabilities.
Segment assumptions include low-single-digit organic net revenue growth in the Americas and mid-to-high-single-digit growth in EMEIA; New Zealand public spending is expected to temper APAC activity.
U.S. project conversion is expected to recover gradually, not linearly; leverage is expected to return to the 1.0x–2.0x target range by year-end.
