DAYTON, Minn.: Forgent Power Solutions, Inc. ("Forgent" or the "Company") (NYSE: FPS), a leading designer and manufacturer of electrical distribution equipment used in data centers, the power grid and energy-intensive industrial facilities, today announced financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended June 30, 2026.
Forgent reported fiscal fourth quarter revenues of $462 million, an increase of $224 million, or 94%, compared to the prior year's quarter. Bookings were $1.5 billion in the fourth quarter, establishing a new Company record and increasing 375% year-over-year and 73% quarter-over-quarter. Forgent’s book-to-bill ratio increased to 3.3x in the fourth quarter from 2.3x in the third quarter, reflecting accelerating demand for the Company’s products and continued market share gains. As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s backlog was $3.0 billion, representing an all-time high, increasing 256% and 53% versus June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively.
“Momentum in electrical distribution equipment remains robust, and Forgent’s products and solutions continue to gain traction with customers,” said Gary Niederpruem, Chief Executive Officer of Forgent. “We booked more than $1.5 billion of orders in the fourth quarter - an amount that exceeded our total revenue for the full fiscal year - highlighting the strength of our offerings. Our performance demonstrates that Forgent is not only benefiting from industry growth, but also gaining share and significantly outpacing the broader market,” added Mr. Niederpruem.
The Company also announced a $35 million investment to expand Powertrain Solutions manufacturing capacity at its Tijuana, Mexico campus (the "2027 PTS Capacity Expansion") to meet growing demand for modular solutions. The PTS Capacity Expansion is incremental to Forgent’s previously disclosed capacity expansion, which began before the Company’s IPO and is now substantially complete (the "2025-2026 Capacity Expansion"). The PTS Capacity Expansion is expected to come online in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027 and increase Forgent’s total revenue capacity to approximately $5.8 billion, representing an increase of approximately $800 million.
“Powertrain Solutions revenue grew 259% in fiscal 2026 and accounted for nearly one-third of fourth quarter revenue, significantly exceeding the demand assumptions underlying our initial capacity build-out. To support growing customer adoption of modular solutions, we are making an incremental investment in dedicated e-House and Powerskid production in Tijuana. We expect this investment to increase our Powertrain Solutions capacity by more than 50%, further strengthening Forgent’s modular solutions capabilities and providing a strong foundation to capture additional share in this rapidly growing segment,” said Mr. Niederpruem.
Net Income for the fiscal fourth quarter was $66 million, an increase of $71 million compared to the prior year's quarter. Net Income increased primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative costs. Net income margin was 14.3%, approximately 800 bps higher quarter over quarter, as revenue growth outpaced operating cost growth and new campuses moved closer to their target production rates.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal fourth quarter was $113 million, the highest quarterly result in the Company’s history and an increase of $70 million or 163%, compared to the prior year's quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 24.4% in the quarter, representing an increase of approximately 200 basis points quarter-over-quarter, as revenue growth outpaced operating cost growth and our new campuses moved closer to their target production rates. Forgent’s revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income in the quarter all exceeded the high-end of the Company’s May guidance.
Cash flow from operations was $74 million in the fourth quarter, $81 million higher than the prior year's quarter, as higher earnings more than offset continued working capital investment to support the production ramp. Capital expenditures in the quarter were $31 million, substantially all of which related to the Company’s 2025-2026 Capacity Expansion. In fiscal 2027, the Company expects operating cash flow to increase compared to fiscal 2026, primarily driven by higher earnings. Fiscal 2027 capital expenditures are expected to total approximately $87 million, including remaining spend on the 2025-2026 Capacity Expansion, the 2027 PTS Capacity Expansion, and maintenance capital expenditures of approximately 1% of revenues.
Mr. Niederpruem concluded, “Forgent entered fiscal 2026 with clear commitments to our customers and shareholders, and we delivered. Our customers needed a partner capable of providing engineering expertise, execution certainty and scalable capacity as they pursued unprecedented build-outs, and Forgent proved it could meet those requirements. That performance is driving share gains and expanding our role with customers facing some of the most complex power requirements in the market. At the same time, we delivered results for shareholders that exceeded the expectations we set during our IPO and through our guidance, while growing faster than the market and our peers. As we enter fiscal 2027, our record backlog, strong customer relationships and continued capacity investments position us to deliver even greater value for our customers and our shareholders in the year ahead.”

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and accompanying audio webcast contain forward-looking statements that are based on our management’s beliefs, expectations and assumptions and currently available information. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, technology developments, financing and investment plans, dividend policy, competitive position, industry and regulatory environment, potential growth opportunities and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include statements that are not historical facts and may be identified by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent risks, uncertainties and other changes in circumstances we cannot predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on such statements.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include if there is less demand for, or greater supply of, electrical distribution equipment in the future, the price of electrical distribution equipment could decline which would adversely impact both our revenue growth and profit margins; if the prices of raw materials, such as electrical steel, carbon steel, aluminum or copper, or labor costs increase in the future and we are unable to pass those increases on to our customers, our profit margins could be significantly impacted; our cost of and access to raw materials and components from international vendors could be adversely impacted by changes in government policies, including the imposition of additional duties, tariffs and other charges on imports and exports or restrictions on purchases of components from certain foreign countries; significant disruptions to our supply chain, including the high cost or unavailability of raw materials and components required to manufacture our products, and significant disruptions to our distribution networks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations; our growth depends in part on continued investment in new data centers, which depends in part on continued interest in developing artificial intelligence; demand for our products depends, in large part, on new construction activity which has declined significantly during past recessions; any delay or interruption in the operations of any of our manufacturing campuses could impair our ability to provide products to customers; if we are unable to complete our expansion in the timeframe we anticipate or the expansion does not give us the additional capacity that we expect, we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth; amounts included in our backlog may not result in the revenue or generate profits in the amount we expect or on the timeframe that we anticipate; we operate in competitive environments, and our failure to compete successfully could cause us to lose market share; any failure of our products could subject us to substantial liability, including product liability claims, which could damage our reputation or the reputation of one or more of our brands; the long sales cycles for certain of our electrical distribution equipment, as well as unpredictable placing or canceling of customer orders, particularly large orders, may cause our revenues and operating results to vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter, which could make our future results of operations less predictable; if changing efficiency standards for transformers increases the cost of producing our transformer products and we are unable to pass these higher costs on to our customers, margins on our transformer products could decline; if we fail to motivate and retain our key personnel or if we fail to attract additional qualified personnel, we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth; changes in technology or customer preferences could result in less demand for certain categories of electrical distribution equipment; large companies often require more favorable terms and conditions in our contracts, which could result in downward pricing pressures on our business, less desirable payment terms or greater warranty and contractual obligations; our strategy to increase our sales of Powertrain Solutions could result in a concentration of our sales with fewer customers and a significant reduction in orders from any one of these customers could adversely impact our business; our operations and quality control could be disrupted if we encounter problems with outside vendors, subcontractors and third-party suppliers; unexpected events, such as natural disasters, geopolitical conflicts, pandemics, a volatile global economic environment, inflation, high interest rates, a potential recession and other events beyond our control, may increase our cost of doing business or disrupt our operations; the integration of the business acquisitions poses risks to the operation of our business; environmental, health and safety laws and regulations could result in substantial costs and liabilities; the impact of import or export laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations; our indebtedness may restrict our current and future operations; our organizational structure, including the Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined in our filings with the SEC), confers certain benefits upon the Continuing Equity Owners (as defined in our filings with the SEC) that will not benefit certain holders of our Class A common stock to the same extent it will benefit the Continuing Equity Owners; in certain cases, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement to the Continuing Equity Owners may be accelerated or significantly exceed any actual benefits we realize in respect of the tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement; Neos Partners, LP will have significant influence over us and its interests may conflict with our interests and the interest of other stockholders; Delaware law and anti-takeover provisions in our governing documents may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in our management and may deprive our investors of the opportunity to receive a premium for their shares; the requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members and officers; and the other factors discussed in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
The forward-looking statements included in this document represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains certain financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are presented as supplemental information to provide additional insight into our operating performance and to enhance the overall understanding of our financial results. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they facilitate comparisons of our core operating results across reporting periods and provide a clearer understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures, including that they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided within this press release except as follows. The Company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, due to the variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections and/or certain information not being ascertainable or accessible; and because not all of the information, such as foreign currency impacts necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is available to the Company without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures that it believes will be achieved, however it cannot accurately predict all of the components of the adjusted calculations and the U.S. GAAP measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP measures.
Defined Terms
