Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE:RSG) will look for acquisitions. Jon Vander Ark, Chief Executive Officer said, "Expanding our environmental solutions business is a strategic priority and this acquisition is a key addition. That said, the investments we are making are not limiting growth or reducing focus in the traditional recycling and solid waste businesses.

This is not an either/or, but a both and approach. We plan to make outsized investments in both businesses to accelerate growth and create lasting value. We remain disciplined allocators of capital and will only make investments in organic growth opportunities in M&A that increases intrinsic value and improves returns.

And we've got a pipeline that we see sometimes building on our regional footprint, sometimes it's adding even further adding to our product and service offering that will be great fit. And our pipeline and acquisitions is robust on both fronts".
