The investment firm views Nextracker’s strategy to enter tangential product markets as a pathway to increase wallet share and boost profitability.

This expansion aligns with the company’s strong financial foundation, as InvestingPro data shows Nextracker holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet and maintains a healthy current ratio of 2.18.
