The case for and against

Updated Apr 28, 2026

Bull case

WillScot Holdings is well-positioned for growth in the long-term due to its strong market presence in modular and storage solutions. The recent precedent industry transactions for similar companies, such as United Rentals and McGrath, show higher valuation metrics of 9.0x to 10.6x EBITDA, while WSC is currently trading at a discount to these multiples. Despite continued downward estimate revisions and cyclical pressures, the company's favorable market position suggests potential for future success.

Bear case

WillScot Holdings is facing negative market conditions due to decreased demand for their modular and storage solutions, leading to lower leasing volumes and reduced margins. The company's current leverage ratio of 3.7x is higher than its peers, and their guidance for future revenue and EBITDA has been lowered multiple times. This, along with ongoing cyclical pressures, has resulted in continual downward revisions of forecasts and a lowered price target.
