“We delivered results above our outlook for the quarter in spite of headwinds from lower-than-expected contributions from higher margin, commodity-related activities and continued sluggishness in the economy, along with tariff-induced uncertainties.”  ​ “As anticipated, we have already completed an outsized year of acquisition activity, at approximately $200 million in annualized revenue, with a robust pipeline and almost half of the year still ahead of us.  The strength of our financial profile and free cash flow generation keeps us well-positioned for additional acquisitions, while maintaining the flexibility for increased return of capital to shareholders, including through opportunistic share repurchases already underway.” ​ Mr. Mittelstaedt added, “In spite of incremental and growing headwinds, our full year 2025 outlook remains within the ranges from February, providing for approximately 6% revenue growth and 50 basis points of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion to 33.0%.  We remain well-positioned for upside from contributions from additional acquisitions, improvements in commodity-related activity and solid waste volumes.” ​ ​ Q2 2025 Results ​ Revenue in the second quarter totaled $2.407 billion, up from $2.248 billion in the year ago period.  Operating income was $459.5 million, which included $7.3 million primarily in impairments and other operating items and transaction-related expenses.  This compares to operating income of $424.7 million in the second quarter of 2024, which included $15.7 million primarily in impairments and other operating items and transaction-related expenses.  Net income in the second quarter was $290.3 million, or $1.12 per share on a diluted basis of 259.0 million shares.  In the year ago period, the Company reported net income of $275.5 million, or $1.07 per share on a diluted basis of 258.6 million shares.   ​ ​ 1 ​ Adjusted net income (b) in the second quarter was $333.1 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, versus $320.0 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, in the prior year period.  Adjusted EBITDA (b) in the second quarter was $786.4 million, as compared to $731.8 mil
