Record Fuel Prices Pose Fresh Challenge for Trump Ahead of Midterms

President Trump came into office pledging to lower energy prices for Americans. Instead, he is presiding over a historic run-up in fuel prices. 

Diesel prices hit an average $5.85 a gallon on Friday, according to OPIS, a Dow Jones company. It is a new record that surpasses the previous one from 2022, when Russia’s invasion of Ukraine sent energy markets into a tailspin.

U.S. Stocks Slip, Short-Term Treasury Yields Climb After Strong Jobs Report

A hotter-than-expected jobs report is sending U.S. stocks and short-term bond prices lower today, as traders boost bets on a rate hike from the Federal Reserve this month.

U.S. Treasury yields initially jumped after the latest report from the Labor Department, though in midday trading, only shorter-term Treasurys were higher. The Dow industrials led stocks lower, falling about 250 points.

Array (ARRY) Says its AWM Acquisition Will Be High-Single-Digit Accretive. How Much Depends on Cross-Selling?

Array (ARRY) Says its AWM Acquisition Will Be High-Single-Digit Accretive. How Much Depends on Cross-Selling?

Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) completed its acquisition of Affordable Wire Management, LLC, or AWM, adding wire-management, cable-protection, and balance-of-system products for utility-scale solar, distributed generation, energy-storage, and data-center projects.

Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) forecasts at least high-single-digit accretion to company-defined non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share during the first year before synergies. Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) defines adjusted net income per share using adjusted net income, which adds back intangible-asset and developed-technology amortization, debt-discount and issuance-cost amortization, debt-extinguishment gains, Series A preferred-stock accretion, equity compensation, contingent-consideration fair-value changes, certain legal and acquisition expenses, and income-tax adjustments.

Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) paid approximately $165 million in cash at closing, net of customary adjustments and subject to final settlement. The announced $203 million total consideration consists of a $153 million base purchase price plus up to $50 million of additional consideration. The latter includes $10 million of employment-conditioned deferred installments and a performance-based earnout of up to $40 million. The $203 million figure represents approximately 8.8 times AWM’s trailing-12-month EBITDA. AWM generated nearly $60 million of trailing-12-month revenue.

Is Array Technologies Inc. (ARRY) the Best Solar Stock to Buy in 2025?
Is Array Technologies Inc. (ARRY) the Best Solar Stock to Buy in 2025?

Bull Case

The commercial logic is straightforward. Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) can introduce AWM’s products to tracker customers and combine trackers, foundations, and wire management into a more integrated system. Fewer interfaces and components could simplify procurement, reduce installation work, and lower project costs.

Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) also brings a large sales channel. Its order book, comprising executed contracts and awarded orders, reached $2.5 billion as of June 30, up 37% year over year. Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) booked more than $500 million of new orders during the second quarter and reported a trailing-12-month book-to-bill ratio of 1.5 times. However, Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) has not quantified how much of that order book is eligible for AWM cross-selling.

The APA Solar integration offers a useful precedent. Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) has combined tracker and foundation sales, expanded project opportunities, and used procurement scale following that acquisition. Applying the same integration process to AWM could increase revenue per project and extend the platform into storage and data centers.

Bear Case

Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) forecasts high-single-digit adjusted EPS accretion before synergies, but that outcome is not guaranteed. The framing suggests that the first-year forecast is based primarily on AWM’s standalone contribution and transaction economics, while cross-selling represents additional upside.

However, Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) has not disclosed AWM’s full financial results, expected revenue contribution, or the bridge to forecast accretion. The adjusted EPS calculation also excludes acquisition expenses, intangible amortization and contingent-consideration fair-value changes, making GAAP results important when assessing the transaction’s full cost.

APA’s progress does not eliminate integration risk at AWM. Cross-selling requires customer qualification, coordinated bids and effective execution. Solar-policy changes, project-financing conditions and tariff uncertainty could also delay projects and reduce the opportunity set.

Hedge Fund Sentiment

The filings available so far reflect positions held before Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) reported the completion of its AWM acquisition. Insider Monkey’s database showed 27 hedge funds holding Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) at the end of 2Q2026, down from 29 funds three months earlier.

Conclusion

Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARRY) has added a complementary product platform with credible cross-selling potential. Investors still need acquired financial disclosures and evidence of customer conversion to evaluate whether the forecast accretion develops into durable value creation.

While we acknowledge the potential of ARRY as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you’re looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
