Stericycle is grappling with near-term pricing headwinds; ample growth opportunities still exist.
Stericycle’s fourth-quarter top line fell 2.6% (organically) year over year, mostly in line with our expectations. Relative to the same period last year, lower revenue stems in part from a significant recall project in fourth-quarter 2016 (in the communications services unit), which made for a tough comparison. Weakness this year in the global manufacturing and industrial portfolio and ongoing pricing pressure among small-quantity, or SQ, medical waste accounts also played a role. That said, Shr...Stericycle is engaged in the medical and hazardous waste management and secure information services. The company's segments are: North America, and International Regulated Waste and Compliance Services, which provides medical waste management services, pharmaceutical waste services, compliance programs, retail and healthcare, industrial and manufacturing hazardous waste management and secure information destruction; and Domestic Communication and Related Services, which provides appointment reminders, secure messaging, event registration, and other communications mainly for hospitals and integrated delivery network's as well as regulated recall and returns management communication, and logistics.
