Vertiv's Q1 earnings report showed non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of $0.64 and sales of $2.04 billion, both exceeding market expectations. This strong financial performance has contributed to the company's stock price increase, as investors recognize Vertiv's ability to deliver on its revenue forecasts despite macroeconomic uncertainties.

Morgan Stanley lowered its price target for Vertiv from $140 to $125, while maintaining an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm noted that Vertiv has generated quarterly orders of $2.6 billion over the last twelve months, matching the 2026 revenue forecasts. Despite the lowered price target, the firm believes that Vertiv can deliver on these estimates without growing orders or burning backlog.
