Q4 2001 earnings summary
5 Nov, 2026Executive summary
FY01 was a difficult transition year; efforts centered on rationalizing KTI-acquired assets and returning to a simpler, more predictable traditional solid-waste model.
Near-term priority is business stabilization, followed by renewed growth in core markets.
Financial highlights
Q4 FY01 restructuring charges were largely non-cash; the largest portion related to impairment of goodwill from the KTI acquisition.
Outlook and guidance
Stabilizing operations over the next few quarters is the immediate focus; growth opportunities in core markets, including eastern Massachusetts, follow that effort.
Management expected divestitures of non-core assets to be virtually complete by the time shareholders received the report.
Early FY02 landfill-volume data showed strong YoY performance, identified as a leading indicator of regional economic health.
