Cramer tips GE Vernova and Vertiv as data center plays missing from jobs report

Jim Cramer highlighted GE Vernova and Vertiv on 2 October, noting their exposure to data centre growth. He questioned why the jobs report didn't reflect the data centre buildout, suggesting commercial construction is weak whilst data centre projects remain strong. Vertiv's Q2 net sales grew 24% annually, with operating profit up 44%. However, revenue growth of 17.8% missed analyst estimates of 23.6% due to supply chain issues, raising concerns about backlog conversion. The company's capital expenditure surged 285% to $173 million. GE Vernova's shares have risen over 240% since October 2024. Q2 customer downpayments generated a $6.4 billion working capital benefit, pushing free cash flow up 2,532% to $5.1 billion. The company raised its full-year cash flow guidance to $11.5–$12.5 billion from $6.5–$7.5 billion.

GE Vernova, Hitachi, and Samsung partner to deploy small modular reactors across Europe

Four major engineering firms have signed a memorandum of understanding to cooperate on building and deploying small modular reactors (SMRs) in Europe. GE Vernova, Hitachi, Samsung C&T, and Poland-based SGE will work together on market development and commercial opportunities for the BWRX-300, an SMR developed by GE Vernova and Hitachi subsidiaries. The agreement was signed during the Atlantic Council Nuclear Energy Policy Summit at the UN General Assembly in New York. SMRs are smaller-scale, plug-and-play nuclear generators that are cheaper and quicker to construct than traditional nuclear plants. They use low-enriched uranium that can be sourced entirely from western enrichment providers. The initiative has government backing from the US, Japan, and South Korea, supported by a trilateral agreement signed at the recent NATO summit.

Revenue reached $11.1 billion, up 22%, whilst net income for the first six months totalled $5.3 billion, compared with $756 million in the prior-year period. GE Vernova is positioned to benefit from surging power demand driven by artificial intelligence data centres. The company also has a nuclear energy division developing small modular reactors through a joint venture with Hitachi, with commercial operation expected by the end of 2030. The company faces challenges including a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 38.1 and declining wind division sales.
