Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, S.A. is a prominent player in the Industrials sector, with a core focus on the Waste Management industry. The company currently commands a market capitalization of 5.20 Billion EUR, positioning it as a significant entity within its field. However, a review of its recent market activity and underlying technical indicators reveals several points of concern for potential investors.
Based on our proprietary scoring system, the stock receives a Strong Sell rating with a total score of -4 out of a possible +6. This negative outlook is primarily driven by a bearish long-term trend, as the current price is trading below its 200-day simple moving average, which is a key negative signal. This is further compounded by a bearish MACD crossover, indicating that downward momentum is building. Finally, the On-Balance Volume (OBV) is trending below its own moving average, which suggests distribution and higher selling pressure. While the ADX indicates the trend is not yet exceptionally strong and the RSI is in neutral territory, the combination of these negative factors provides a clear technical warning.
The bearish technical rating finds strong support in the company's fundamental context. The last earnings report was a significant disappointment, posting a massive negative surprise of -515.0% on an EPS of 0.92. This dramatic miss on expectations casts a shadow over the company's profitability and justifies investor caution. The P/E ratio of 26.83 may be considered high given this performance. While the reported dividend yield is exceptionally large, it should be scrutinized for sustainability in light of the earnings shock. With the next earnings report not scheduled until 26/02/2026, the recent negative results are likely to weigh heavily on the stock's performance.
