About Advanced Drainage Systems

Advanced Drainage helps move and manage water through underground pipes and systems. Its products keep rain from flooding properties and manage waste for homes and businesses. These solutions serve builders, farmers, and government infrastructure projects across the globe.

What Advanced Drainage Makes

  • Pipe: Corrugated polypropylene and polyethylene pipes for moving water; represented 47% of net sales in Q3 2026.
  • Allied Products & Other: Stormwater traps, filters, and soil-stabilizing fabrics used in large-scale construction; accounted for 24% of net sales in Q3 2026.
  • Infiltrator: Plastic leachfield chambers and septic tanks for wastewater systems; made up 22% of net sales in Q3 2026.
  • International: Drainage products sold to customers in Canada, Mexico, and other global markets; contributed 7% of net sales in Q3 2026.

New Moves and Big Buys

  • Acquired Orenco Systems, Inc. on October 1, 2024, to expand into advanced wastewater treatment products.
  • Purchased the assets of River Valley Pipe LLC in May 2025 to strengthen manufacturing in the U.S. Midwest.
  • Completed the $1 billion acquisition of National Diversified Sales in February 2026 to grow its water management portfolio.
  • Launched the 2026 Restructuring Plan to optimize its recycling, production, and shipping networks.

How the Company Stands Out

Advanced Drainage maintains a network of 38 distribution centers and focuses on using recycled plastic for its underground products. By using thermoplastic materials instead of traditional concrete, it offers lighter solutions that are easier to install at construction sites.

Recent Financial Milestones

  • Net sales reached $693 million in Q3 2026, a 0.4% increase from the prior year.
  • Net income rose to $94 million in Q3 2026, up 15.3% year-over-year.
  • Operating cash flow grew to $269 million in Q3 2026, a 41.8% increase from Q3 2025.
  • Free cash flow hit $184 million in Q3 2026, up 35.3% from the previous year.
  • The company announced a new $1 billion stock repurchase program in February 2026.

The Bottom Line

Advanced Drainage has transitioned from a specialized pipe maker into a broad provider of water management and recycling solutions. Its recent acquisitions and network restructuring emphasize a shift toward larger-scale wastewater and stormwater systems.
