Description: BBUC Brookfield Business January 13, 2026
Brookfield Business Corp. (NYSE: BBUC) is a diversified operating company that runs services and industrial businesses across North America, Europe, Australia, and Brazil. Its portfolio includes cloud-based SaaS platforms for automotive dealers and OEMs, private-hospital operations, water-and-wastewater utilities, and large-scale construction projects.
In FY 2023 the company reported roughly $2.3 billion of revenue, with an adjusted EBITDA margin near 17 %, reflecting the higher-margin nature of its SaaS and healthcare assets versus the lower-margin utility and construction segments. The SaaS division grew at an estimated 9 % YoY, outpacing the broader automotive-software market, which the International Data Corporation projects to expand at a 7.8 % CAGR through 2029.
Key macro drivers include continued U.S. infrastructure spending (the Inflation Reduction Act and bipartisan infrastructure bill together allocate over $1 trillion to water and transportation projects), the global shift toward electric-vehicle servicing that fuels demand for dealer-software solutions, and aging demographics that support private-hospital utilization. Conversely, construction earnings are sensitive to real-estate cycles and commodity price volatility, which adds earnings uncertainty.
Given the mix of high-growth SaaS and stable utility cash flows, BBUC’s dividend yield of roughly 6 % (FY 2023) provides income while the company reinvests in technology and infrastructure assets. However, the lack of recent segment-level reporting limits precise valuation of each business line, so analysts should treat the disclosed aggregate metrics with caution.
