Jefferies downgraded Vertiv Holdings from Buy to Hold, lowering its price target from $280 to $260. The firm believes Wall Street's margin assumptions for Vertiv are overly optimistic, expecting the company to reach its long-term margin goals a year earlier than management's guidance. Concerns also include operational risks tied to capacity expansion and potential multiple compression if hyperscaler spending slows after 2027. Despite strong fundamentals like a record backlog and solid Q4 2025 results, Vertiv's high valuation leaves limited room for error, making margin execution a key factor for investors to watch in 2026.
