Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) reported fiscal fourth-quarter revenue of approximately $462 million on September 15, up 94% year over year. Bookings reached $1.503 billion, increasing 375%, while backlog stood at $3.0 billion as of June 30, 2026.
The reported 3.3 times book-to-bill ratio compares quarterly bookings with quarterly revenue. Bookings and backlog are operating measures of order activity and outstanding contractual work, respectively. Neither represents cash collected, and backlog does not guarantee the timing of future revenue.
Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) expects fiscal 2027 revenue of $2.4 billion to $2.6 billion, implying 76% growth at the midpoint. The question is whether factories, employees, and working capital can support that expansion while preserving cash generation.
Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) already has evidence of stronger production economics. Fourth-quarter operating income reached $91.9 million, compared with $8.3 million a year earlier. Operating cash flow was $74 million, exceeding the quarter's $31 million of capital expenditures.
Those results suggest that rising output is beginning to cover the costs of expansion. Management attributed stronger profitability partly to revenue growing faster than operating costs as new campuses approached target production levels.

Restaurant stock Dave & Buster's Entertainment (PLAY) and healthcare name Kestra Medical Technologies (KMTS) will kick off earnings reports during a week when investors will be squarely focused on the Federal Reserve and a possible interest-rate hike Wednesday. Forgent Power Solutions (FPS) is also on the docket, with its stock trying to recover after a lengthy sell-off.
Friday's stock market rally notwithstanding, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Russell 2000 small-cap index have come under the most pressure amid surging oil prices and spiking bond yields, as investors worry about pesky inflation and escalating tension between the U.S. and Iran.
While the Dow is testing major support near 52,000, the Russell fell below its 50-day moving average in late August and has been below the support level ever since. The Nasdaq composite, meanwhile, bounced off its 50-day line with conviction Friday, helped by a tame report on consumer prices. The S&P 500 also moved off its 50-day line Friday.
Results from Lennar (LEN) are due Wednesday after the close. Lennar stock tried to break out in late June, but was turned away at its 200-day line and went into a downtrend. It tried to clear the 200-day line several times again in August but to no avail. With interest rates on the rise, heavy-volume selling has picked up the pace in recent weeks.
Forgent, which sells electrical distribution equipment to data centers, reports early Tuesday. The company priced its IPO at 27 on Feb. 4, at the midpoint of a proposed range of 25-29.

Sandhill Investment Management, an investment management company, released its second quarter 2026 investor letter. A copy of the letter can be downloaded here. The letter highlighted a strong second quarter for equity markets, with the S&P 500 up about 15% and projected earnings growth at the fastest rate in five years. Despite challenges like tensions with Iran and lower oil prices, the semiconductor sector and AI advancements drove significant stock price increases. In fixed income, rising yields have made corporate bonds appealing, offering over 5% returns. However, consumer sentiment is waning, and the savings rate is at a six-decade low, raising caution about the economy. Investment trends suggest that while overall market valuations are high, quality businesses present selective opportunities for long-term gains amidst short-term volatility. Also, check the fund's top five holdings to see its best picks in 2026.
In its Q2 2026 investor letter, Sandhill Investment Management highlighted Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) as a new holdings. Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) is a leading industrial company that designs and manufactures electrical distribution equipment used in data centers, the power grid, and energy-intensive industrial facilities. On August 26, 2026, Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) closed at $32.21 per share, reflecting a market capitalization of $9.80 billion. Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) posted a one-month return of -3.22%.
Sandhill Investment Management stated the following regarding Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"Despite the elevated broad market valuation and the caution related to the consumer, quality businesses are being valued more cheaply than they have been in a long time, and we are putting capital to work. We remain selective, but individual businesses are presenting compelling value.
We also initiated a position in Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS), a newly public manufacturer of electrical distribution equipment, including transformers, switchgear and prefabricated power systems for data centers and the broader electric grid. As AI infrastructure spending accelerates, power equipment has become a critical constraint on new data center capacity. Forgent's ability to provide an integrated range of electrical products positions it well as customers seek faster and more coordinated solutions. Forgent, by contrast, is a newly public company that remains less widely followed despite strong long-term growth prospects and a valuation that leaves room for upside."

Baron Capital, an investment management company, released its Q2 2026 investor letter for the "Baron Discovery Fund". A copy of the letter is available to download here. Baron Discovery Fund appreciated by 19.08% (Institutional Shares) in the quarter, underperforming the Russell 2000 Growth Index, which gained 25.71%. This lag was primarily due to a momentum-driven "AI winners" trade, with these stocks largely contributing to the Benchmark's performance. The Fund experienced a 6.63% underperformance, largely driven by an underweight in strong-performing Momentum and Beta factors. The Fund prioritizes a long-term balanced portfolio over chasing momentum. The letter discussed parallels between the current AI market and the late 1990s dot-com bubble. The firm remains focused on company fundamentals and long-term valuation. Please review the fund's top five holdings to gain insights into their key selections for 2026.
In its Q2 2026 investor letter, Baron Discovery Fund highlighted Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) as a leading contributor to performance. Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) is a leading industrial company that designs and manufactures electrical distribution equipment used in data centers, the power grid, and energy-intensive industrial facilities. On August 10, 2026, Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) closed at $37.60 per share, reflecting a market capitalization of $11.45 billion. Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) posted a one-month return of -6.12%.
Baron Discovery Fund stated the following regarding Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:FPS) is a leading manufacturer of electrical distribution equipment used in data centers, the power grid, and industrial applications. Forgent is a low- and medium voltage equipment specialist focused on custom, "engineered-to order" products (over 90% of revenue) whereas larger competitors in the industry generally focus more on higher voltage and standard products. The stock rose during the quarter as Forgent continued to deliver very strong financial results reflecting improving demand for its products amidst the broader data points on AI infrastructure and grid buildout continuing to point to strong growth for the next several years. Forgent is gaining share with its ability to offer customized products at industry-leading lead times and is still just scratching the surface of its opportunity having sold very little directly to the biggest customers in the market. The company has invested heavily in capacity and people to support future growth, and we see many strong years of growth and margin expansion ahead as it grows from an approximate $1.2 billion revenue run rate currently into its $5 billion manufacturing footprint."
