ACM Hits 20-Day Low Amid Mixed Earnings Outlook
Written by Emily J. Thompson, Senior Investment Analyst
Updated: 18 Nov 25
Shares of AECOM (ACM.N) fell sharply today, hitting a 20-day low as investors reacted to the company's recent earnings report. Despite raising long-term financial targets and announcing a 19% increase in its quarterly dividend, the stock's bearish momentum was fueled by a disappointing revenue figure that missed analyst expectations by $130 million. The company's strategic review of its Construction Management business, now classified as held for sale, has also contributed to investor uncertainty. While AECOM's Advisory business and AI initiatives are positioned for growth, the overall market sentiment remains cautious amid broader stock declines.
