FirstService posts 6% revenue growth but GAAP EPS falls, adjusts outlook after Q3 2026 results

FirstService Corporation reported third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $1.53 billion, up 6% year‑over‑year, while GAAP diluted earnings per share declined to $0.99 from $1.24. Adjusted earnings per share rose to $1.89, a 7% increase, and adjusted EBITDA grew 3% to $169.7 million. Management highlighted strong performance in Restoration Brands and Century Fire, noted a 4% decline in roofing revenues, and announced a $300 million share repurchase of 2.2 million shares.

Raymond James reaffirmed an Outperform rating and raised its price target to $190, noting the earnings beat and organic growth. The company’s leverage rose to 2.4 times net debt/EBITDA after the buyback, which may limit further repurchases.
