Company Overview

MasTec is an integrated infrastructure contractor that generates revenue from executing power delivery, pipeline, clean energy and infrastructure, and communications projects. Its operations include transmission networks, substations and grid modernization, natural gas infrastructure, renewable energy and civil infrastructure, and data center and fiber network connections, with the ability to combine civil engineering, electrical, communications, and maintenance work in integrated projects. The acquisition of Superior Group in July 2026 added approximately 3 thousand specialized employees and expanded the company’s electrical capabilities in mission-critical facilities and data centers.

In Q2 fiscal year 2026, revenue reached $4.374 billion, up 23% year over year, and net income according to EDGAR data was approximately $130.1 million, equivalent to a net margin of about 3.0%, with earnings per share of $1.65. On an adjusted basis, the company recorded earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of $384 million, up 40%, and adjusted earnings per share of $2.22, up 49%, while the adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization margin expanded by approximately 100 basis points year over year.

Q2 fiscal year 2026 revenue was distributed primarily among clean energy and infrastructure at more than $1.6 billion, power delivery at approximately $1.25 billion, communications at approximately $890 million, and pipelines at approximately $643 million. The pipeline segment achieved the highest reported margin among these segments at 18.4%, compared with more than 9% for power delivery and approximately 8.2% for communications, while clean energy and infrastructure generated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of approximately $128 million. Backlog rose to a record $21.4 billion, up 30% year over year and approximately 5% sequentially, with a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 1.2 times.

What's Driving the Stock

  • MasTec raised its fiscal year 2026 guidance to revenue of $18.2 billion, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of $1.6 billion, and adjusted earnings per share of $9.30, representing expected annual growth of 27%, 39%, and 42%, respectively.
  • Backlog reached $21.4 billion at the end of Q2 fiscal year 2026, following a year-over-year increase of approximately $5 billion and a sequential organic increase of $1 billion. Management said that only a limited portion of the approximately $2.5 billion backlog growth during the first half would enter fiscal year 2026 revenue, while fiscal year 2027 is expected to benefit from it to a greater extent.
  • The clean energy and infrastructure segment grew revenue by 43% and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization by 54% year over year, and its backlog increased by approximately $500 million sequentially to nearly $7.8 billion, with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3 times. The company expected segment revenue of approximately $6.8 billion in fiscal year 2026, supported by renewable energy, civil infrastructure, industrial construction, and data center projects.
  • Power delivery generated revenue of approximately $1.25 billion and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of $113 million in Q2 fiscal year 2026, while its backlog rose to a record of approximately $6.3 billion. The company is targeting annual segment revenue of approximately $5.725 billion, benefiting from grid modernization, reliability, and growth in electricity demand associated with data centers, along with Superior’s contribution.
  • Pipeline revenue rose 19% year over year and its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization nearly doubled, while backlog increased 35% sequentially to approximately $1.8 billion, with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.7 times. Management linked long-term demand to pipeline constraints and customers’ future commitments to deliver gas to mission-critical power generation facilities.

Buying & Selling Case

▲ Buying Case4 pts

  • +MasTec’s diversification provides tangible operating protection; strong performance in power delivery, pipelines, and clean energy and infrastructure offset the reduction in communications expectations, while guidance for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization from existing operations remained at $1.5 billion within management’s explanation of the guidance update.
  • +The record backlog of $21.4 billion strengthens revenue visibility, and its increase in Q2 fiscal year 2026 does not include any of the major projects that the company was still pursuing, leaving room for additional contracts if those negotiations turn into actual awards.
  • +Superior expands MasTec’s capabilities in mission-critical facilities and data centers, and the company expected a contribution of approximately $800 million to second-half fiscal year 2026 revenue and approximately $100 million in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization within its explanation of the updated guidance.
  • +The 40% year-over-year increase in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, compared with 23% revenue growth, demonstrates improved operating leverage during Q2 fiscal year 2026. The consolidated margin also rose by approximately 100 basis points, and revenue, earnings, and earnings per share exceeded the company’s guidance for that quarter.

Valuation

The analyst consensus is “Buy,” with an average price target of $434.67, a high target of $550, and a low target of $326; the average is only approximately 1.5% below the top of the 52-week range of $441.43. The $224 target range, alongside the wide 52-week range of $171.05–$441.43, indicates significant differences in estimates of the value of backlog growth and Superior versus communications weakness and cash flow timing risks.

FAQ

What drove MasTec’s growth in Q2 fiscal year 2026?

Revenue rose 23% year over year to $4.374 billion, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization increased 40% to $384 million. The clean energy and infrastructure segment grew revenue by 43%, while power delivery revenue rose approximately 20% and pipeline revenue increased 19%. Net income according to EDGAR was approximately $130.1 million, with earnings per share of $1.65, while adjusted earnings per share reached $2.22.

Why is the Superior Group acquisition important for MTZ stock?

MasTec closed the acquisition of Superior in July 2026 and described it as the largest acquisition in its history. Superior adds approximately 3 thousand specialized employees and expands electrical infrastructure capabilities in mission-critical facilities and data centers. Within its explanation of the updated guidance, management estimated its contribution in the second half of fiscal year 2026 at approximately $800 million in revenue and $100 million in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

Why did MasTec lower its communications segment expectations for fiscal year 2026?

The company attributed the reduction to lower wireless revenue in the second half of fiscal year 2026, the delay of new spectrum equipment until fiscal year 2027, and the postponed start of certain wireline network projects. Execution challenges on specific projects and higher fuel and indirect equipment costs also affected Q2 fiscal year 2026 profitability. Annual segment expectations are now approximately $3.25 billion in revenue, with an earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization margin in the high single digits and approximately 100 basis points lower year over year.

  • −MasTec reduced its fiscal year 2026 communications expectations by approximately $400 million in revenue and now expects revenue of approximately $3.25 billion and an earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization margin in the high single digits, approximately 100 basis points lower year over year, following execution challenges, higher fuel and equipment costs, and the deferral of wireless and wireline projects.
  • −Wireline deferrals are concentrated among approximately two customers, while the impact of the guidance reduction was distributed approximately evenly between wireless and wireline, with a slightly greater weighting toward wireless; therefore, spending decisions by a limited number of customers or permit delays of several months could cause notable volatility in the timing of communications revenue.
  • −Operating cash flow was nearly flat in Q2 fiscal year 2026 because investment in working capital offset earnings growth, and the company expects most of its annual operating cash flow of more than $1 billion to arrive in Q4 fiscal year 2026, concentrating execution of the liquidity target within a relatively short period.
  • −The Superior acquisition raised pro forma net leverage from 1.8 times at the end of Q2 fiscal year 2026 to 2.2 times, before it is expected to decline to below two times by the end of fiscal year 2026. Although Superior was described as a relatively independent entity, the transaction is the largest in MasTec’s history, so achieving its financial benefits depends on integrating cross-selling opportunities, executing new work, and reducing leverage as planned.
  • −There are regulatory risks in some growth markets, including potential halts or suspensions of data center development in certain states and potential FCC restrictions on Chinese inverters. Management said on July 31, 2026 that the areas under consideration are not among MasTec’s strongest regions and that the inverter restrictions do not affect its projects over the next few years, but broader restrictions could delay project development or change their locations.
  • −The 52-week range of $171.05–$441.43 reflects the sensitivity of MTZ’s valuation to growth and execution expectations, while analysts’ price targets range from $326 to $550. This wide dispersion means that communications reductions or delays in converting backlog into revenue could pressure the valuation, even with strength in the other segments.
How large is MasTec’s backlog, and when will it convert into revenue?

Backlog reached a record $21.4 billion at the end of Q2 fiscal year 2026, up 30% year over year and approximately 5% sequentially. The company added approximately $2.5 billion to backlog during the first half of fiscal year 2026, but management said only a limited portion of it would enter fiscal year 2026 revenue. Fiscal year 2027 is expected to benefit from most of this increase, and a major contract that increased pipeline backlog is scheduled for execution in fiscal year 2027.

Which segments are most important to MasTec’s growth after fiscal year 2026?

Management identified power delivery, clean energy and infrastructure, and pipelines as the expected drivers of backlog growth through the end of fiscal year 2026. Backlog for these segments was approximately $6.3 billion, $7.8 billion, and $1.8 billion, respectively, at the end of Q2 fiscal year 2026. The company links growth to grid modernization, data centers, renewable energy, power generation, and demand for gas pipelines, while stating that its expansion in the mission-critical facilities market remains in its early stages.
