Company

Company overview

Forgent Power Solutions designs and builds equipment that distributes electricity within data centers, utility substations and energy-intensive factories. Its engineers work with customers to define each project's requirements, then manufacture equipment such as transformers and switchgear. Project-specific Custom Products provide most revenue. The next-largest offering, Powertrain Solutions, combines those products into integrated or coordinated systems; standard equipment and services contribute much less.

Customers pay for equipment through purchase orders or contracts specifying designs, prices and delivery dates. Forgent sells to facility owners and operators directly, and to contractors, equipment makers and integrators that install or incorporate its products, as well as distributors. Nearly all revenue comes from North American customers. Data centers are its largest market, with most of those purchases tied to new construction, so demand depends heavily on continued data-center investment and customers' ability to complete projects. One unnamed customer accounts for a significant share of sales.

Forgent manufactures critical components in-house, including transformers and medium-voltage switchgear. Its transformers must meet U.S. Department of Energy efficiency standards. Its Mexican factories use the IMMEX program to import materials tax- and duty-free, on the condition that all products manufactured under the program are exported.

Forgent’s results hinge heavily on data-center power investment, where Schneider Electric is an important competitor missing from this list.

  • Vertiv competes with Forgent for data-center customers buying equipment that controls and distributes electricity, including switchgear and integrated modular power systems. Watch Vertiv’s delivery times and customization in these products: Forgent competes on both, and data centers supplied approximately 59% of its fiscal 2026 revenue.

  • Eaton competes with Forgent for data-center customers buying modular power systems and for utilities and industrial buyers purchasing electrical equipment. Its 2025 acquisition of Fibrebond expanded its modular offerings for multi-tenant and hyperscale data centers, a concrete expansion to watch in Forgent’s competitive market.

  • nVent Electric plc and Forgent compete for hyperscalers, utilities and industrial buyers purchasing switchgear, buildings that house control equipment, and power distribution systems. Watch delivery timeliness in nVent’s Systems Protection business, which sells these products: timely delivery and customization are important reasons customers choose Forgent.

  • Hubbell competes with Forgent through PCX’s power equipment for data-center customers and Systems Control’s grid infrastructure for utilities. Watch its Utility Solutions revenue, which comes from selling grid components and control equipment: it offers a view of the utility market that also buys Forgent’s electrical distribution equipment.

  • Comfort Systems USA and Forgent depend on spending on technology and manufacturing facilities: Comfort Systems earns installation revenue from mechanical and electrical systems, while Forgent sells electrical distribution equipment for those facilities. Watch Comfort Systems’ technology and manufacturing revenue, which represented 45.0% and 22.1% of its 2025 revenue, respectively.

  • Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. shares Forgent’s exposure to data-center expansion: Solaris supplies customers with local power generation and distribution systems, while Forgent supplies electrical distribution equipment. Watch Solaris’s data-center deployments where grid access is unavailable, delayed or unreliable—these show how customers address power constraints in Forgent’s main market.

  • Bloom Energy and Forgent both depend on data-center power investment: Bloom sells systems that generate electricity on site using fuel cells, while those buildouts also need Forgent’s electrical distribution equipment. Watch Bloom’s Energy Server sales to data centers rather than its hydrogen-producing Electrolyzer business for the closer read on this shared demand.

  • ERock, Inc. and Forgent serve the same expanding data-center market: ERock sells and operates natural-gas generation systems that supply power before grid connection or during outages, while Forgent sells power distribution equipment. Watch ERock’s data-center business in California and Texas, where it expects disproportionate growth tied to near- and medium-term data-center demand.

    Fed Interest Rate Decision

    The Fed’s rate decision signals the cost of borrowing across the economy, which can affect whether customers finance data-center construction and buy Forgent’s electrical distribution equipment, as well as the interest Forgent pays on its variable-rate debt.
