Debt-free electrical contractor riding the data-center boom with 35% ROE, but 47x earnings prices in a lot for a cyclical, thin-margin business.

The read

Middling fundamentals and a rich price (~20% above fair value) leave little margin of safety — a wait-and-see.

IES Holdings designs and installs integrated electrical and technology systems across four segments (Communications, Residential, Infrastructure Solutions, Commercial & Industrial), and is a direct beneficiary of the data-center build-out. FY2025 was outstanding: revenue grew 16.9% to $3.37B, gross profit rose 23.4%, operating income jumped 27.5% to $384M, net income climbed 39.6% to $306M, and diluted EPS surged 51.9% to $15.02 on a flat share count. The multi-year ramp is dramatic — net income went from $66.7M (FY2021) to $306M (FY2025) — and management notes backlog across segments remains at record levels heading into FY2026, with data-center demand particularly strong across the Communications, Infrastructure Solutions and Commercial & Industrial segments.
