According to Bernstein, the market is “mispricing” the company’s data center-focused systems protection business. With more and more data centers popping up around the world every day, the analyst firm believes that nVent’s coolant distribution unit technology positions it to become a leading player in the growing liquid cooling market.

The data center momentum was already evident in nVent’s Q1 report, when it delivered record sales, orders, and backlog exceeding forecasts. As a result, the company significantly raised its sales and adjusted EPS guidance for full-year 2026. It now expects organic sales growth of 21% to 23%, up from 10% to 13% previously. Moreover, the firm boosted its adjusted EPS outlook for the year to $4.45 to $4.55, compared to its prior forecast of $4 to $4.15.
