Forgent Power Solutions addresses AI's real bottleneck, which is getting power to the rack rather than GPUs. AI chip output of 45-50 GW in 2027 compares with only 30-33 GW of power that can actually be turned on, leaving about a third of the year's compute dark; Elon Musk notes this also requires transformers, wiring, liquid cooling, chillers and networking. Forgent's backlog grew 157% to $1.98B, with about 55-60% shipping between July 2026 and June 2027. x.com x.com
Forgent Power Solutions is the highest-upside energy infrastructure stock, a picks-and-shovels play on expanding and upgrading the electrical grid that could be worth $60+ versus about $38 today. @TrackNetWorth counters that grid connection delays will cap the upside before it reaches that target. x.com x.com
Forgent Power Solutions' pullback is an overreaction to a mistranslated Barclays report. Barclays rates it Overweight, raised its target from $44 to $55, lists it among five preferred electrical stocks for the data center power shift, and expects it to strongly outperform peers over two to three years; "underweight" meant low-voltage product mix. Revenue grew 103%, backlog is a record, and KeyBanc and Oppenheimer raised targets to $60. Risks: a low-voltage slowdown and no clear 800VDC roadmap. … Show more

Forgent Power Solutions is one of the few US makers able to supply data centers with fully custom high-voltage power distribution systems, which AI's growing power needs require. Q3 revenue rose 103% to $379M versus $292M expected, record orders of $867M rose 308%, backlog grew 157% to $1.98B with a 2.3x book-to-bill, and guidance was raised.

Forgent Power Solutions is a fairly safe way to play AI without adding semiconductor exposure. It is growing nearly 100% year over year with half the lead times of competitors while expanding margins, and it is already EPS and free-cash-flow positive with both growing fast.
