Zooming in further, EME has also outperformed the Invesco Building & Construction ETF’s (PKB) 8.9% uptick over the past 52 weeks and 20.8% YTD rise.

On Oct. 30, shares of EME crashed 16.6% after its Q3 earnings release. The company’s revenue advanced 16.4% year-over-year to $4.3 billion. Moreover, its Remaining Performance Obligations (RPOs) as of Sep. 30, 2025, reached a record $12.6 billion, supported by growth across most of the sectors it serves. However, while its EPS of $6.57 also increased 13.3% from the year-ago quarter, it missed the consensus estimates by 1.2%, lowering investor confidence in the stock.

For the current fiscal year, ending in December, analysts expect EME’s EPS to grow 17.3% year over year to $25.24. The company’s earnings surprise history is mixed. It topped the consensus estimates in three of the last four quarters, while missing on another occasion.

Among the 10 analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is a "Moderate Buy,” which is based on seven “Strong Buy” and three "Hold” ratings.

This configuration is more bullish than two months ago, with one analyst suggesting a “Strong Sell” rating.

On Oct. 31, Stifel Financial Corp. (SF) maintained a "Buy" rating on EME, but lowered its price target to $713, indicating a 17.7% potential upside from the current levels.

The mean price target of $696 represents a 14.9% premium from EME’s current price levels, while the Street-high price target of $800 suggests a 32% potential upside from the current levels.
