The strong performance was driven by increases in both Residential and Commercial & Industrial (C&I) product sales, which acted as key catalysts for the company's growth. Domestic revenues rose by 7% to $884.5 million, while international revenues surged by 7% to $197.2 million, supported by higher inter-segment sales and strength in C&I product shipments in Europe [1].
Generac's entry into the data-center vertical is expected to be a strong business opportunity in the long term, as the company has developed a significant global pipeline of opportunities and is building a robust backlog for its new high-output diesel generator product [1].
The company revised its full-year 2025 guidance upward, anticipating net sales growth of 2% to 5% compared to the previous range of 0% to 7%. Adjusted EBITDA margins are now expected to be between 18% and 19% compared to the previous projection of 17% to 19% [1]. Additionally, the company expects its free cash flow conversion from adjusted net income to be 90% to 100% compared to the previous guided range of 70% to 90% [1].
Generac's stock surged 7.7% in pre-market trading following the announcement, reaching $194.69. The stock has gained 1.4% compared to the Manufacturing-General Industrial industry’s growth of 1% in the past six months [1]. Analysts have upgraded their price targets, with Cannacord Genuity increasing its target from $180 to $250 per share [1].
