The price needs 20.3% growth a year for ten years. The AI thinks 18.0% is achievable, at a 26.0% margin.
Vertiv is a high-ROIC compounder riding the multi-year AI data-center buildout. The market prices it for 17% growth; its combination of NVIDIA design wins, backlog visibility, and 42% returns on new capital supports 18%+ sustainable growth with further margin lift from services and liquid cooling. That small positive gap plus a wide moat gives a reasonable margin of safety at current levels.
