Share Prices Are Lower, But Willdan Fundamentals Keep Improving
Willdan Group's shares have declined despite strong financial performance, including significant revenue and net income growth, and a bullish outlook for 2025. The company benefits from rising demand for energy transition services, government contracts, and strategic acquisitions like Enica Engineering. I rate Willdan a Strong Buy, expecting a 25% price increase over the next year due to its solid fundamentals and growth prospects.
