Description: FIX Comfort Systems USA December 17, 2025
Comfort Systems USA, Inc. (NYSE: FIX) delivers end-to-end mechanical and electrical (MEP) services across the United States, covering new-build design, installation, start-up, and ongoing renovation, maintenance, and remote monitoring of HVAC, plumbing, electrical, fire-protection, and control systems.
The business is split into Mechanical and Electrical segments, serving commercial, industrial, and institutional clients such as building owners, developers, general contractors, architects, and property managers. Its service portfolio includes off-site construction, energy-usage monitoring, and integrated building-systems solutions.
Key operating metrics (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly $1.3 billion, an operating margin near 7 %, and a backlog of about $1.5 billion, indicating a solid pipeline despite a tight labor market. The segment’s growth is closely tied to macro-level drivers like U.S. commercial construction spending (which rose ~4 % YoY in 2023) and the accelerating demand for energy-efficiency retrofits spurred by ESG regulations.
Given the sector’s exposure to interest-rate-sensitive construction activity and ongoing shortages of skilled MEP tradespeople, any deviation in those fundamentals could materially affect FIX’s earnings visibility.
For a deeper quantitative view of FIX’s valuation metrics, the ValueRay platform offers a concise dashboard worth a look.
