Flex acquires EPC Power for $4.4B

Flex has agreed to buy EPC Power for $4.4 billion, adding a power-conversion business that it says is built for AI data centers and grid applications.

EPC Power is expected to generate about $800 million of revenue in calendar 2026. Flex said it expects EPC Power’s organic revenue growth to be about 40% in 2027, and it sees EBITDA margin expanding by double-digit percentage points to about 30% in 2027.

The deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026. Flex said EPC Power would then become part of its cloud and power infrastructure segment, which Flex plans to spin off as an independent public company in the first quarter of 2027.

EPC Power says it has more than 15 gigawatts deployed across 62 countries, and its annual U.S. manufacturing capacity is expected to exceed 30 gigawatts in 2027.

Flex said the acquisition expands its position in 800-volt data center power architectures, with EPC Power bringing rectifiers, DC-DC conversion and planned solid-state transformer development. The company said the technology is aimed at higher-density AI infrastructure, where power delivery has become a central issue.

Flex said it is evaluating financing options and expects to fund the purchase with a mix of debt and equity. As a result of these announcements, the company's shares have moved 1.07% on the market, and are now trading at a price of $109.04.
