  • Nextpower (NXT) Posts 17x One-Year Return but Trades Slightly Above Fair Value
    January 28, 2026, 12:36 PM EST. Nextpower (NXT) delivered a remarkable 17-fold total return over the past year despite a modest 1% stock dip in one day. The company's annual revenue stands at about $3.37 billion with a net income of $576 million, both showing robust double-digit growth. NXT's share price closed at $105.91, slightly above the estimated fair value of $102.54, indicating it is roughly 3.3% overvalued. However, its price-to-earnings ratio of 27.3 remains below the U.S. electrical industry average of 32.9 and peers at 40.9, signaling potential room for earnings growth. With a $4.5 billion backlog and persistent demand, Nextpower has solid visibility for future revenue but faces risks from tariff changes and R&D expenses. Investors should weigh strong growth against modest premium and sector challenges before investing.
