Vertiv Beats Q1 Revenue Estimates with $2.65 Billion; Q2 Guidance Mixed
VRT has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $65.93.
Summary
Vertiv Holdings Co reported Q1 revenue of $2.65 billion, surpassing IBES estimates of $2.627 billion. This positive Q1 performance follows a strong Q4 revenue announcement on April 13. However, the company's Q2 sales guidance of $3.25-$3.45 billion and adjusted EPS guidance of $1.37-$1.43 are mixed compared to IBES estimates of $3.388 billion and $1.42 respectively, indicating a less clear outlook for the next quarter. Traders will be watching how the market balances the Q1 revenue beat against the somewhat cautious Q2 guidance, particularly as the stock is trading near its 52-week high.
At the time of this announcement, VRT was trading at $320.22 on NYSE in the Technology sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $119.5B. The 52-week trading range was $65.93 to $323.04.
