Generac Holdings offers power generation equipment, energy storage systems, and a range of outdoor power products, with significant revenue from residential and light commercial standby generators.
-
The company generates revenue through the design, manufacture, and sale of proprietary products, distributed via independent dealers, distributors, retailers, e-commerce, and direct-to-end-user channels.
-
It serves residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal customers globally, with a focus on homeowners, small businesses, and critical infrastructure sectors.
Generac Holdings Inc. is a leading provider of power generation and energy storage solutions, with a diversified portfolio spanning residential, commercial, and industrial markets. The company leverages a broad distribution network and proprietary technology to address the growing demand for reliable backup power and energy management. Its scale and product innovation support a competitive position in the global industrial machinery sector.
Residential demand softened last year for Generac as outage hours hit their lowest third-quarter level since 2015, pushing net sales down 5% to $1.1 billion during the third quarter. But that headline misses the offset. Commercial and industrial revenue grew 9% year over year, driven by telecom, industrial customers, and early shipments of large-megawatt generators to data centers. Management said the backlog for those data-center products doubled in just 90 days, a detail that matters more than last year’s storm count.
Financially, the business remains solidly profitable despite the lull. Third-quarter adjusted EBITDA margin held roughly steady at 17.3%, and the company generated $96 million in free cash flow. Guidance was reset to roughly flat sales for 2025, but that reset already appears reflected in a stock that underperformed the S&P 500 by about 16 percentage points over the past year.
Meanwhile, this position sits at just 1.38% of assets, well below Matrix Asset Advisors’ largest holdings like Microsoft and Google. That sizing suggests patience, not panic, and long-term investors should probably keep that in mind.
