Celestica moves into my portfolio

$CLS (+0.63%)

Hello my dears,

I'm sure many of you will have already seen it yesterday. That I used the little dip at Celestica for my first purchase. @Hotte1909


Due to the sudden purchase, the company presentation is only available today after the purchase.


Opinions and assessments of the company are welcome in the comments.


Celestica Inc. is engaged in the design, manufacture and deployment of hardware platforms and supply chain solutions. The company offers its customers worldwide supply chain solutions in two business segments: Advanced Technology Solutions (ATS) and Connectivity & Cloud Solutions (CCS). The ATS segment comprises the ATS end market and is made up of the Aerospace & Defense (A&D), Industrial, HealthTech and Capital Equipment business units. The Capital Equipment segment comprises the Semiconductor, Display and Robotics Equipment business units. The CCS segment consists of the Communication and Enterprise end markets. The enterprise market consists of Celestica's server and storage business. Celestica provides a range of product manufacturing and related supply chain services to its customers in both segments, including design and development, new product introduction, technical services, component sourcing, electronics manufacturing and assembly, testing and systems integration.

Number of employees: 21,914


Celestica is a Toronto-based contract manufacturer of high-performance hardware. The group develops, builds and integrates complete server, storage and network platforms for large tech customers - right up to fully equipped racks for data centers. In addition to cloud and communications equipment, Celestica also supplies industrial customers, aerospace, medical technology and semiconductor equipment manufacturers, providing not only manufacturing, but also engineering, supply chain and post-delivery service.

It is precisely this model - Celestica sells not just components, but complete, customer-specific infrastructure blocks for data centers - that is now at the heart of a major stock market story: the Group reports a strong quarter, raises its annual forecast and presents an aggressive growth target for 2026 for the first time. The management is thus openly positioning Celestica as a beneficiary of the global AI data center boom.


AI data centers drive the story

The growth driver is the "Connectivity & Cloud Solutions" (CCS) division, in which Celestica supplies complete server, storage and network platforms for cloud and communications customers, among other things. This unit generated revenue of 2.41 billion dollars in the quarter, an increase of 43% compared to the same period last year. The division is benefiting directly from the fact that hyperscalers and other major customers are currently building up additional AI data center capacities - including hardware for AI inference, network technology, power supply and cooling. Hardware Platform Solutions alone generated around 1.4 billion USd in revenue, +79% compared to the previous year.

Celestica is thus openly presenting itself as part of the AI infrastructure chain: The company argues that the current expansion of AI data centers is not a short-term peak, but a multi-year investment cycle that will continue into 2026 and 2027. It is precisely this narrative - structural growth instead of a one-off effect - that is now at the heart of the investment thesis surrounding the share.

@Tenbagger2024 hatter 😇 Normally I wave goodbye to stocks that are running so hot. We don't need to discuss the business segment at the moment. The figures were really very good, profit growth pre-programmed. Capex for further infrastructure should be made entirely from free cash flow. In my opinion, it is normal for there to be setbacks at the top due to profit-taking and this actually offers an opportunity to enter the market at a high level. The fundamentals are really great, there is still a lot to come in the near future
