For the fourth quarter of 2025, NVT expects sales to grow 31% to 33%, with acquisition contribution of up to 15 points to sales and a 1-point tailwind from foreign exchange. NVT organic sales growth is expected to be up 15% to 17%.
Adjusted EPS is expected to be between 87 cents and 89 cents, which implies approximately 50% increase from last year.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter revenues is pegged at $1.00 billion, indicating a year-over-year increase of 33.4%. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at 89 cents per share, unchanged over the past 60 days, indicating 50.9% year-over-year growth.
nVent Electric’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters, while matching once, resulting in an average surprise of 3.5%.
Let us see how things might have shaped up for NVT prior to the announcement.
Key Factors to Consider for NVT’s Q4 Earnings
nVent Electric’s fourth-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from strong momentum in its infrastructure segment, particularly driven by growth in data centers and power utilities.
nVent Electric is seeing very strong demand from data center customers, driven mainly by the growth in AI workloads. In the third quarter of 2025, organic orders rose around 65%, and management said most of this increase came from large liquid cooling orders for hyperscaler programs. The company's backlog during the third quarter grew by double digits sequentially.
Power utilities are becoming an important and steady source of growth for nVent Electric. In the third quarter, the company reported solid order activity from power utility customers across both of its major segments, Systems Protection and Electrical Connections. These customers are upgrading equipment as electricity demand increases, especially with more data centers coming online. This creates steady demand for nVent Electric’s enclosures, power distribution products, and related electrical equipment, and is expected to have contributed to the company’s fourth-quarter performance.
NVT’s acquisitions of Trachte and Electrical Products Group (“EPG”) are expected to have contributed significantly to its fourth-quarter 2025 performance. In the third quarter of 2025, management stated that EPG is growing at a double-digit rate and is expected to contribute about 15 percentage points to nVent Electric’s fourth-quarter sales growth. Management said that both acquired businesses are finding new applications, including work tied to data center projects, which is expected to have driven revenue growth in the to-be-reported quarter.
However, nVent Electric is dealing with higher costs from tariffs and inflation. In the third quarter, inflation negatively impacted adjusted operating income by $45 million, including nearly $30 million from tariffs. For 2025, nVent Electric expects tariffs to hurt its profit by approximately $90 million. This shows that tariffs remain a significant headwind, due to which margins could come under pressure during the fourth quarter of 2025.
