Mullen Group reports before the market opens on October 22. Analysts expect quarterly EPS of C$0.42 and revenue of about C$607 million. The company has beaten EPS estimates in three of its last four quarters. The key question is whether growth is coming from its existing businesses, not just acquisitions and fuel surcharges.

Mullen Group Ltd. (TSX: MTL) is set to report results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. The current consensus, based on four analysts, is EPS of C$0.42, up 11.8% from C$0.38 a year earlier, and revenue of C$607.34 million, up an estimated 8.1%. These estimates offer a useful reference, but they’re not a guarantee. Mullen’s latest reported quarter, ended June 30, delivered EPS of C$0.41, compared with expectations of C$0.34. For investors following the MTL.TO stock page, the main question is whether the upcoming report shows lasting operating growth, not just higher revenue.

Investor takeaway: The outlook is cautiously positive. Analysts expect EPS and revenue to rise, and Mullen has mostly beaten recent EPS estimates. But the EPS consensus has slipped from C$0.43 to C$0.42 over the past 30 days. In its latest results, the company pointed to contributions from acquisitions and fuel surcharges, while revenue from existing businesses declined when those factors were excluded. Look beyond the headline figures to the sources of growth, operating profitability and management’s outlook.

C$0.42 EPS expected

Analysts expect EPS of C$0.42 for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared with C$0.38 a year earlier. Four analysts contributed to the consensus, with estimates ranging from C$0.41 to C$0.45. Mullen beat EPS estimates in three of its last four quarters, though the consensus has eased from C$0.43 over the past month.

Bull case

Mullen has beaten EPS estimates in three of its last four quarters, including by 20.6% in the quarter ended June 30. Analysts expect third-quarter EPS to grow 11.8% year over year and revenue to rise 8.1%. In its latest reported quarter, the company posted record revenue of C$609.3 million, up 12.6%, and adjusted OIBDA of C$102.1 million. Further contributions from acquisitions and solid execution could help Mullen meet the upcoming consensus.

Bear case

The headline growth may not tell the whole story. In its latest reported quarter, Mullen said revenue from existing businesses fell C$4.6 million when acquisitions and fuel surcharges were excluded. The EPS estimate has also dropped from C$0.43 to C$0.42 over the past month, with no upward revisions during that period. If acquisitions and fuel surcharges don’t lead to stronger underlying activity and profitability, the results may look weaker beneath the top line.
