On May 29, Nextpower surged 13.28% in regular trading, trading at approximately $155.45/share, with trading volume of $99.9 million.

Alongside the acquisition, Nextpower raised its fiscal year 2027 revenue guidance to the $4.0–$4.4 billion range, exceeding the prior market consensus of $4.0 billion. The company's most recent fourth fiscal quarter results also beat expectations, with revenue of $881 million and adjusted EPS of $1.05, further reinforcing investor confidence in the medium-term growth trajectory.
