Vertiv Holdings Co. (VRT) is poised to thrive in AI and cloud computing markets.
VRT designs, manufactures, and services power and room cooling solutions for data centers. The company is at the center of scaled computer infrastructure, becoming a bigger player in both AI and cloud computing. The company opened a new manufacturing facility in South Carolina in September.
Vertiv grew its organic orders by 57% in the second quarter. It has also increased its earnings performance expectations, with 46% growth in EPS expected for fiscal 2024 and 28% in fiscal 2025, to reach $3.31 per share. This is after VRT grew its bottom line last year by 230%.
It’s no wonder VRT shares have gained 114% this year – and they could grow more. Based on MAPsignals data, investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
