Babcock & Wilcox shares are climbing as investors react to its pivot into a key power infrastructure supplier for the booming artificial intelligence industry. Momentum accelerated after the company won a $2.4 billion deal to provide 1.2 gigawatts of power to Applied Digital’s AI Factory campuses, sending its order backlog soaring by about 470% from a year ago.
The stock’s rally is also being fueled by reports of fresh institutional buying, which signals growing confidence from large, sophisticated investors. Adding to the bullish mood, Babcock & Wilcox has sharply raised its EBITDA guidance, suggesting stronger future earnings and helping justify the latest move higher in the share price.
