United Rentals delivers top-tier growth and profitability, driven by specialty segment expansion and strong demand from large infrastructure projects. Valuation is at a premium to rental peers, but justified by consistent market outperformance, high margins, and superior return on equity. Recent margin compression is manageable, with free cash flow guidance raised and a solid mid-single-digit revenue growth outlook maintained.
New digital tools from URI improve jobsite planning and rental efficiency.
URI's revenues should benefit from strong end-market demand from infrastructure, reshoring, power, and data centers. The growth and cross-sell opportunities in the Specialty business, scale advantages in executing complex/multi-location projects, and shift from owning to renting should drive market share gains. I believe double-digit EPS growth and P/E multiple sustaining at current levels due to enhanced growth outlook with cyclical and secular drivers, should support continued upside.
