Valens Equity Weekly Insights and Inflections for May 3, 2022
May 10, 2022
- nVent Electric plc (NVT) has been rolling up the protected enclosure business to become a key vendor to the “electrification of everything” trend related to the modernization of American corporate infrastructure. Uniform Accounting highlights that the market is missing nVent’s improving competitive position and its massive upcoming tailwinds, indicating equity upside.
- nVent is looking to become a one-stop shop for all types of enclosures, fastenings, and thermal management solutions for electrical components. Coming out of the pandemic, corporations are in desperate need to reinvest in their infrastructure, which is a massive tailwind for nVent. The company’s Uniform ROA has consistently been above 25%, and as it is able to more efficiently use its existing distribution to gain share as demand accelerates, returns could continue expanding.
- nVent’s management is closely aligned to focus on metrics that will incentivize revenue growth, asset efficiency, and margin expansion margins, all of which should drive profitability and growth higher than the market expects.
- Management confidence in the Q4 earnings call about acquisitions, growth, free cash flow generation and momentum in their product portfolio, suggesting they are executing in the right areas to meet their strategic goals.
