Generac Surges 25% on $2.4B Amazon Data-Center Generator Deal
GNRC sits 75% above its 52-week low of $134.8.
Summary
Generac signed a long-term supply agreement with Amazon for backup generators for data centers, with initial orders of $2.4 billion for delivery in 2027-2028 and potential total payments up to $8 billion. The deal includes a warrant for Amazon to buy up to 1.69 million Generac shares at $200.9266, with 307,954 shares vested immediately. This follows Generac's strong Q2 results driven by data center demand and gives the company significant exposure to the AI infrastructure buildout. The stock surged 25% in extended trading, reflecting the size of the initial commitment and the potential for a much larger relationship. The agreement provides revenue visibility and diversifies Generac beyond its residential standby generator business.
