GE Vernova up 600% since spin-off, with a $176B backlog: is the dip a buying chance?

GE Vernova's shares have risen nearly 600% since the company was spun off from GE Aerospace in 2024, driven by demand for electricity from artificial intelligence data centres. The stock has been in a lull since April. In the second quarter, its power division's revenue grew 14% to $5.5 billion, while new orders rose 134% to $16.7 billion, mostly for natural gas turbines. Its electrification arm's revenue climbed 68% to $3.6 billion, with orders up 93% to more than $6.3 billion. Total backlog stands at $176 billion, more than three times next year's expected revenue of $53 billion. Manufacturing capacity is the main bottleneck. About 80% of customers are traditional, and 20% are data centres. Most analysts rate the stock a strong buy, with a consensus price target of $1,199.47.

GE Vernova stock down 10.1% as gas turbine prices and $12.5B cash guide face six-month test

GE Vernova stock has fallen 10.1% since April 21, 2026, while the S&P 500 gained 9.8%. Investors appear to be betting that customers will keep paying rising prices for its gas turbines, with cash up front. Management expects at least 125 gigawatts of equipment under contract by the end of 2026. The company's third-quarter results, due around October 28, will show whether turbine prices keep climbing. In July, management said first-half equipment orders were priced more than 20% above fourth-quarter 2025 orders. Full-year free cash flow is due around January 26, 2027. Management raised its 2026 guide to $11.5 billion to $12.5 billion, from $6.5 billion to $7.5 billion. Wind revenue is expected to fall at a low double-digit rate in the third quarter.

GE Vernova wins five Venture Global grid reservations; $3,400 model target implies 267% upside

GE Vernova has reserved five grid equipment packages for Venture Global, under an agreement signed October 9. GE Grid Solutions will supply transformers and gas-insulated switchgear for up to 21 power island projects, with purchase orders starting in late 2026. Venture Global also reserved eight power islands with GE Vernova, and expects to order its first by the end of 2026. Beyond reservation fees, neither deal binds the buyer; the roughly $17.2 billion total assumes every order proceeds. GE Vernova shares closed at $926.44 on October 15, 21.14% below their June record but up about 42% in 2026. The company's Electrification backlog has grown to $45 billion from $6 billion at the end of 2021. Third-quarter results are due October 28.
