SES: Lawsuit And CFO Transition Will Set Up Future Upside

Analysts have kept their SES AI price target at $4.00, with updates to the discount rate, revenue growth, profit margin, and future P/E assumptions reflecting a more tempered outlook on long term profitability expectations while maintaining the same fair value estimate. What's in the News Rosen Law Firm filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of investors who bought SES AI securities between January 29, 2025 and March 4, 2026, alleging misleading statements around business prospects, revenue recognition tied to Molecular Universe, logistics constraints in late 2025, and 2026 revenue guidance, with a deadline of June 26, 2026 to seek lead plaintiff status (Key Developments).

Vertiv: The Infrastructure Layer Behind AI's Biggest Constraint

Summary I am reiterating Vertiv (VRT) as a Strong Buy because AI-Infrastructure growth is increasingly constrained by power availability, cooling density and grid access. VRT has the solution to those bottlenecks. The main growth drivers are high-density AI power systems, Vertiv OneCore modular infrastructure, 800 VDC architecture, EnergyCore Grid BESS and expanding service and thermal management business. I estimate these growth drivers can help grow adjusted EBITDA from about $3.55Bn in 2026 to about $4.9Bn in 2027 adjusted EBITDA. My Price Target for VRT is $492, representing a 33% upside potential. I arrive at my PT by using a 39x FWD EV/EBITDA and $4.9Bn 2027 adjusted EBITDA. The biggest risks are valuation compression, AI infrastructure deployment delays, AI Power winter and execution challenges around manufacturing scale and supply chains.
