Insight Guru flagged downside risk for Caterpillar if data center power demand cools, as CAT expands capacity tied to large gensets.
In Q2 2026, power generation sales rose 72%; Power & Energy posted USD 8.2 billion revenue, near Construction Industries at USD 8.3 billion.
Lead times for gas prime power stretch into H2 2028; some customer orders extend to 2030, raising exposure to demand durability.
At USD 805, CAT’s valuation implies about 17.4% annual revenue growth; a slowdown could leave growth short of expectations.
Backlog visibility delays the impact, with 59% of a USD 72 billion backlog due within 12 months; aftermarket benefits largely start post-2030.
