RSG EV/EBITDA Analysis

RSG’s EV/EBITDA of 15.2x measures the company’s total enterprise value (market cap plus debt minus cash) relative to its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, indicating how many years of pre-tax cash profit an acquirer would pay for.

That level sits above the sector median of 13.5x, placing RSG in the 57th percentile among peers, so the stock is more richly valued than most comparable companies. The metric has been stable, with a year-over-year decline of -2.1% and an identical quarter-over-quarter change of -2.1%, and the last four prior readings (15.6x, 15.7x, 15.7x, 15.6x) show little movement. A high-but-stable multiple suggests investors are consistently paying a premium for RSG’s cash flow, but the mild downward drift slightly eases that premium without signaling a sharp re-rating. This combination implies moderate risk: valuation downside exists if earnings stall, yet the steady trend limits near-term pressure. The metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict — it neither confirms an undervalued opportunity nor warns of a stretched price relative to peers.
