MIXED
On Nov 5, MasTec announced that it would suspend ongoing talks for a large acquisition in order to focus on repurchasing its own shares. The company confirmed that the full $250 million share‑repurchase authorization remains available and that the buyback program is discretionary and subject to market conditions. By prioritizing buybacks, MasTec aims to return value to shareholders while postponing potential dilution from a new deal. The decision reflects a strategic shift toward strengthening the balance sheet and supporting the stock price. No immediate impact on operational plans was disclosed.

Earnings Summary
In Q4 2024 MasTec reported EPS of $1.44 versus an estimate of $1.22, with revenue of $3.40 billion, indicating a strong earnings beat and robust top‑line performance. Q2 2026 EPS of $2.22 versus an estimate of $2.23 and revenue of $4.37 billion versus an estimate of $4.35 billion showed a slight earnings miss but a revenue beat, while Q3 2026 EPS of $2.96 versus an estimate of $2.98 and revenue of $5.15 billion versus an estimate of $4.99 billion demonstrated a revenue surge and earnings that closely matched expectations. The company’s earnings history reveals a consistent pattern of revenue growth outpacing EPS, with EPS hovering near estimates but revenue expanding at double-digit rates. Historically, MasTec has posted year-over-year revenue growth of 25-30% and maintained a strong backlog, with a 12‑quarter streak of backlog growth in the Power Delivery segment. Recent news reports record Q3 2026 revenue of $5.15 billion, a 29.9% year‑over‑year increase, and a backlog of $24.55 billion, up 46.3% from the prior year, alongside a 1.6× book‑to‑bill ratio and raised 2026 guidance; a brokerage lowered its price target to $332, reflecting a more conservative outlook.

MasTec, Inc. is consolidating: price is near its 52-week low without a decisive push either way. Earnings and guidance carry more weight than macro data at this capitalisation.

Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into MTZ?

FAIR

At today's price, MasTec, Inc. needs to grow free cash flow about 18.0% a year for 3 years, slowing to a long-run rate by year 10, to justify its valuation at a 9.02% cost of capital. Over the last five years its revenue has trended at 15.1% a year, so the market is asking for 2.9 percentage points above its own delivered rate. On that basis MTZ looks priced roughly in line with its own growth record.

75.4% 97th pct

vs 200-day average
-44.6%
Up days (1y)
53%

MasTec, Inc. is currently running 75.4% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against MTZ's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 97th percentile — an extreme by its own standards, against a typical reading of 37.4%.

MTZ is trading -62.1% below its running peak. Across 13 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -33.5%, and the deepest was -62.9% in 2020. The current drawdown is already deeper than this stock's typical annual low point, which puts it in the part of its range where past recoveries began, and where past declines also continued.

Price sits -44.6% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 1st percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year MTZ closed higher on 53% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a falling streak.

On November specifically: over 13 years of records, MTZ finished the month higher 9 of 13 times, with a median return of +6.1% and an average of +8.0%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +8.0% on average, its weakest July at -2.8%.

Overnight risk is measurable too: MTZ has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 288 of 3,267 sessions (8.8% of the time), with the largest gaps running +10.6% and -18.6%.

All figures computed from 3,268 daily closes between 2013-11-06 and 2026-11-04, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against MTZ's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
