Tetra Tech: Continued Re-Rating Likely

  • Tetra Tech has weathered USAID/State Department cuts, with backlog poised to recover and margin mix improving as low-margin work decreases. Core business segments remain strong, supported by robust government and defense contracts, and secular growth in water, data centers, and PFAS remediation. Valuation is attractive at a discount to historical averages, with upside potential as backlog and margins improve and the company pursues accretive M&A.
