Waste Connections Q1 2026 earnings release, 2026-04-29

Print-day reaction was a muted +0.13% versus the prior close, suggesting the modest EPS beat was largely priced in ahead of the report. The overnight gap to T+1 open was marginally negative at -0.20%, offering no confirming signal in either direction. Over the subsequent two trading days, the stock drifted -2.50%, unwinding the initial reaction and then some, though broader market conditions also shifted. Cumulative abnormal return of -2.68% versus SPY.US falls between the ±3% PEAD thresholds, yielding a none verdict with conviction 7; the holding window closes 2026-07-27.
