Power Solutions International, Inc. (PSIX)
Power Solutions: I May Sound Like A Broken Record But It's Still A Buy After Disastrous Earnings
Power Solutions International (PSIX) saw a disastrous Q1, missing revenue by 20% and sharply disappointing on EPS, shifting the narrative to a turnaround play. I downgrade PSIX to Buy, citing near-term risks from weak oil & gas demand, shipment timing, and elevated production costs, but see these as largely transient. Management's pivot to high-margin data center engines remains intact, with Wisconsin ramp-up expected to drive sales acceleration in H2 2026.
