Investment Highlights Why It Matters Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?

1. Generates cash flow

The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.

2. Riding a trend

Think Tesla during the pandemic of 2020 when EVs were riding a cultural high, or Nvidia in the current AI boom, or even Figma. These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

Why The Stock Moved


Qualitative Assessment

AI Generated Analysis | Feedback

Between July 31, 2025, and November 15, 2025, MasTec (MTZ) experienced a net stock movement of 1.6%, influenced by a combination of company-specific financial performance and broader market factors.

1. Q2 2025 Earnings Disappointment Despite Beat: Despite MasTec reporting strong second-quarter 2025 results that exceeded revenue and earnings expectations, the stock initially tumbled 13.78% in premarket trading on August 1, 2025. This decline was attributed to investor concerns regarding cash flow generation and specific challenges within the Power Delivery segment, creating early downward pressure on the stock within the period.

2. Robust and Growing Backlog: Throughout this period, MasTec consistently demonstrated significant backlog growth, signaling strong future revenue visibility. The company reported a record 18-month backlog of $16.8 billion as of September 30, 2025, marking a 21% increase year-over-year. This growth was broad-based across all segments, with Pipeline Infrastructure seeing a notable 124% year-over-year increase, contributing to a positive outlook for sustained demand.
