On July 30, 2025, Vertiv (VRTX) traded with a volume of $2.71 billion, ranking 28th in market activity, while its shares rose 1.03%.

Vertiv reported Q2 2025 results showing 35% year-over-year net sales growth to $2.64 billion, driven by strong data center demand. Adjusted diluted EPS reached $0.95, up 42% from the prior year. Organic order growth accelerated 15% year-over-year, with a $8.5 billion backlog and a 1.2x book-to-bill ratio. The company raised full-year guidance for adjusted EPS, sales, and operating profit, citing sustained momentum in AI infrastructure and strategic investments in capacity expansion.

Despite a 110-basis-point decline in adjusted operating margin to 18.5%, the firm attributed the pressure to tariff-related costs and operational challenges linked to rapid growth. Management emphasized resolving these issues by year-end. CEO Giordano Albertazzi highlighted the acquisition of Great Lakes Data Racks as a strategic move to strengthen its position in high-density data center solutions. The stock’s rally reflects optimism around long-term growth prospects in the digital infrastructure sector.
