WSP Global Inc. has become a focal point amidst the evolving landscape driven by fears surrounding AI disruption. Many experts express confidence in WSP's long-term growth potential, highlighting its robust $17 billion backlog and strategic acquisitions, particularly in the power and energy sectors, which are expected to benefit from increased infrastructure spending. Despite concerns about AI impacting demand for engineering services, experts argue that the unique challenges of large-scale projects, such as bridges and dams, cannot be easily mitigated by AI technologies. WSP's ongoing growth, historical performance, and its global footprint position it as a reliable player in the engineering sector. However, some analysts suggest waiting for a more favorable entry price, indicating the stock's current price may not fully reflect its potential for long-term gains.

Over the last 10 years, price has one trajectory but the FMV has another. It's the "jaws of death". Trading well above FMV, plus it's expensive, probably means we're going to get a setback in the stock.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 05/22, Up 10%)

Has owned this for years. A play on the infrastructure build. Very well managed. A huge global infrastructure consulting firm. Shares are a little high, but he isn't selling or adding more.

HOLD
A purely consulting and design company, no construction risk. Has made strategic acquisitions to increase presence in lucrative growth areas such as environmental and infrastructure, especially in the US. Very global, Canada is less than 20% of earnings. Grows organically and by acquisition. Balance sheet still quite strong.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 05/22, Up 2%)Bought a company in central Europe today Still likes it as an infrastructure play. Has held this for years. Very diversified portfolio. Acquisitions are key for WSP. However, a deep recession will see valuation pull back and he will likely sell some shares.
BUY
Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Improving margins. Potential government infrastructure spending. Cost cutting measures showing results. Cyclical sector.
TOP PICK
Consulting and design business within engineering sector (intangible assets). Company is growing earth and environmental business segments. Global business with operations across the globe. Current share price presenting good buying opportunity. Strong balance sheet with ability to acquire business' in soft economy. Organic growth ~8% last quarter.
BUY
Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Business is mounting. WSP’ Q2 reported a record $11.4 billion project backlog, jumping 19% year-over-year. The balance sheet is robust, helped by cost-cutting early in Covid. WSP is a growth-by-acquisition name, including a mammoth $2.3 billion deal with John Wood Group’s environmental and infrastructure business. Hope are pinned on integrating this U.K. Company as the company continues to buy during its three-year-growth plan. Read 3 Solid Infrastructure Stocks for our full analysis.
BUY
WSP vs. Stantec She prefers WSP is solely in services and design consulting while Stantec has some construction operations. WSP grows organically and in buying companies including recent ones in the past year that have elevated their presence in the environmental and water sector and will be prominent. They have a good track record of buying and integrating.
TOP PICK
Has followed company for years and decided to purchase shares with recent selloff. Very impressed with management team. Recent John Wood acquisition a catalyst for buying shares. Major supported of environmental water products. Current valuation level presenting good buying opportunity.
BUY
Ton of demand in the space. Big fan of WSP or STN, which focus on the engineering rather than the risk of contract pricing with ARE.
BUY
He recently added WSP, the gold standard in engineering consulting, a global leader.
BUY
She's adding at these levels. WSP has executed well. They have fully integrated an acquisition from a few years ago and bought another company, this one in the environmental side. They always garner the premium multiple vs. other engineering companies. She likes WSP for being in consulting and services, not construction. Shares got ahead of itself. Have pulled back as interest rates have risen. S&P executes very well and is not in construction. Valuation is far more reasonable now and deserves to trade at a premium to peers.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
His preferred name in the space, but currently underweight. Last year, lots of excitement around infrastructure plans. But now concerns about economic slowdown. Best in class. Excellent job of executing on accretive M&A. Not a bad entry point, but be prepared for volatility next 12-18 months.
TOP PICK
Last week, they reported strong organic growth across all regions. They will benefit from the infrastructure build next year in the US. Have a great balance sheet and will make more acquisitions. Strong organic growth too. (Analysts’ price target is $175.00)
TOP PICK
The stock has come off recently, but has done well in recent years. With its global footprint, it's resilient if the economy weakens this year. It will benefit from infrastructure spending that he expects to come. Solid balance sheet. Well-managed. (Analysts’ price target is $195.43)
