On August 24, Vertiv Holdings LLC declined 3.52% in regular trading, trading at $251.795/share, with turnover of $91.24 million. The stock continued to face pressure from lingering concerns over its second-quarter revenue shortfall combined with broad weakness across the electrical components sector.
On the earnings front, Vertiv previously reported Q2 revenue of $3.274 billion, missing the consensus estimate of $3.377 billion. Management attributed the revenue gap to timing shifts caused by supply chain congestion. While adjusted EPS of $1.52 beat the $1.42 estimate and the company raised full-year guidance to $14 billion in net sales and adjusted EPS of $6.65-$6.75, the top-line miss continues to weigh on sentiment.
At the sector level, the Electrical Components and Equipment industry traded lower broadly, with Eaton Corp down 1.92% and Ametek down 0.24%, amplifying downside pressure on individual names including Vertiv.
