Carillon Tower Advisers made the following comment about Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (NYSE:WMS) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:
"Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (NYSE:WMS) rose during Q3, as the company’s water drainage systems are in high demand. While residential construction activity is plummeting due to higher rates, non-residential construction activity is less immune to higher rates. The company produces thermoplastic corrugated pipe that is lower cost and more effective than traditional concrete drainage systems. As it relates to margins going forward, many input costs for the company’s drainage systems peaked earlier this year, so the price-cost shift should move in the company’s favor going forward."
