GFL (GFL) Closes the SECURE Waste Infrastructure Acquisition With 75M New Shares and a US$1B Term Loan. Can Scale Offset Dilution and Leverage?
GFL Environmental (NYSE:GFL) completed its C$6.4B acquisition of SECURE Waste Infrastructure, issuing 75.1M shares and securing a US$1B term loan. The deal adds 80+ locations and 2,000 employees, but introduces dilution and debt. GFL estimates a 5% interest rate post-swaps and targets mid-3x net leverage by year-end. SECURE's assets add cyclicality and environmental risks. GFL plans to update 2026 guidance with Q3 results.
