⚠️ Don’t buy a stock just because of its price targetA price target is the analysts’ estimate of where the stock will trade in 12 months. That estimate is often wrong. A large study of US stocks from 2000 to 2009 found that only 38% of price targets had been met after 12 months. On average, the targets promised 15 percentage points more return than the stocks delivered. Use the price target together with the financials and the trend, not on its own.Source: Bradshaw, Brown and Huang (2013)

CECO Environmental Corp. provides critical solutions in industrial air quality, industrial water treatment, and energy transition solutions in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, China, and internationally. It operates through Engineered Systems and Industr... The company belongs to the Industrials sector, more specifically the Pollution & Treatment Controls industry, is headquartered in United States, and is traded on the USA Stocks. See the key figures, earnings history and price development above to evaluate CECO Environmental as an investment.
Did CECO Environmental raise or lower its guidance?

Is CECO Environmental making money or losing money?
No, CECO Environmental is currently not making money — the company is losing money with a negative profit margin of -3.4%, a small loss. That means the business loses money on every dollar of revenue. The operating margin, however, is positive at 4.9% — the core business makes money; the loss comes from financing costs, taxes or one-off items. For growth stocks investing in expansion this is normal — but it raises the risk if the company does not reach break-even before its capital runs out.
Can CECO Environmental go bankrupt?
The bankruptcy risk of CECO Environmental is rated as moderate. Altman Z2 (a model for assessing financial distress) is 1.91 — that places the company in the middle zone. The Piotroski score (financial health 0-9, higher is better) is 3 — which is weak. Debt relative to equity is 205% (high). Remember: models like Altman Z2 are statistical — unexpected shocks (fraud, a sector collapse, lawsuits) can always happen. Spread your portfolio.
Does CECO Environmental have a lot of debt?
Yes, CECO Environmental has elevated debt relative to equity. The debt-to-equity ratio (D/E — interest-bearing debt to equity) is 205%. For the industrials sector, anything above 200% counts as elevated — that raises the financial risk, especially if interest rates rise or earnings fall. Industrial companies often sit at 100-200% because of heavy production assets and long order books. Note: D/E levels are highly sector-specific — a bank at 300% debt is normal, a tech stock at 300% is extremely leveraged. Always compare with similar companies in the same sector. Can CECO Environmental service its debt? Could struggle to service its debt — the interest coverage ratio (how many times earnings can cover interest payments) is -3.9x, and net debt equals 7.9 years of earnings (EBITDA).
