Back in Q4 2025, I strongly believe the market overreacted to Celestica Inc.'s $1 billion 2026 CapEx plan. Back then, CLS management raised its revenue and adjusted EPS guidance. Therefore, the CapEx increase is meant to fund capacity for visible AI-driven demand. The main CLS risk I see is not weaker AI demand. In fact, management guided for 50% growth in CCS, which made up 74% of FY25 revenue.
Celestica Inc. is positioned for sustained growth, driven by hyperscaler demand and major AI capex from key customers like Alphabet. The CCS segment and fast growing HPS business support higher structural margins driven by richer product mix. High customer concentration remains a key risk, with three large customers contributing most of Celestica's revenue.
CLS rides on AI data center boom and AMD tie-ups to fuel growth, but heavy reliance on AI spending and macro risks raise questions after a massive stock surge.
CLS is powering AI data centers with high-speed networking, storage and computing solutions for faster, scalable and reliable performance.
Celestica is rated 'Buy' ahead of its Q1 2026 earnings, with strong conviction in a beat-and-raise scenario. Management has guided for aggressive first-quarter revenue and earnings growth, supported by a massive expansion of the manufacturing footprint in both Texas and high-demand markets like Thailand. The company has secured critical design and manufacturing awards for 1.6T networking platforms, effectively reducing customer concentration risks while capturing significant next-generation infrastructure market share.
Celestica (CLS) closed the most recent trading day at $297.34, moving +1.72% from the previous trading session.
When deciding whether to buy, sell, or hold a stock, investors often rely on analyst recommendations. Media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm-employed (or sell-side) analysts often influence a stock's price, but are they really important?
Zacks.com users have recently been watching Celestica (CLS) quite a bit. Thus, it is worth knowing the facts that could determine the stock's prospects.
Finally, it's time for me to upgrade Celestica (CLS) to Buy. The recent AMD partnership has helped it bottom out and expand its AI opportunities. CLS's premium valuation (33x forward earnings) appears justified by >40% expected adjusted EPS growth (next 2 years) amid robust AI-driven CapEx expansion. The AMD Helios rack-scale AI platform deal diversifies revenue beyond Broadcom's core and strengthens CLS's position in the AI chip ecosystem.
Celestica's Q4 revenue reached $3.65 billion (+44% YoY), driven by 800G networking and AI compute deployments across hyperscaler demand cycles. EPS surged 70% in Q4 to $1.89, while FY EPS grew 98%, highlighting strong operating leverage and cost absorption. The 2026 outlook implies $17 billion in revenue (+37%) and $8.75 EPS (~45% growth), with CCS as the primary driver.
Celestica (CLS) reached $288.73 at the closing of the latest trading day, reflecting a +2.5% change compared to its last close.
Over the past few years, Celestica Inc. CLS has been increasingly focusing on margin expansion driven by a structural shift in its business model. The company is leaning toward high-value, engineering-intensive offerings, resulting in sustained profitability improvements.
Celestica delivered 28% revenue growth and 56% EPS growth in 2025, driven by CCS segment expansion and hyperscaler AI demand. CCS now represents roughly 74% of revenue, increasing dependence on hyperscaler spending cycles and concentrated customer exposure. Management plans $1 billion in CapEx in 2026, signaling a shift toward a more capital-intensive, infrastructure-like operating model.
Celestica Inc. delivered a strong Q4 double beat, with revenue rising 44% year-over-year and adjusted EPS surging 70%, supported by sustained operating leverage. The Connectivity and Cloud Solutions segment continues to drive margin expansion, with high-value platform design services increasing its share of total revenue significantly. AI infrastructure demand from hyperscalers is accelerating, with management guiding for continued growth into 2026 and 2027, driven by large-scale compute cluster deployments.
