CLS and SANM showcase rising demand across key markets, with liquidity, segment trends and valuation shaping their latest performance.

CLS surges 260% in a year, fueled by AI demand, product innovation and a bullish 2025 revenue and earnings outlook.

Celestica is rated a buy, driven by strong growth in customized solutions across ATS and CCS segments, especially AI-related HPS products. CLS demonstrates accelerating revenue and profit growth, improved leverage, and capital efficiency, though it faces risks from low margins and high customer concentration.

Celestica (CLS) is well positioned to outperform the market, as it exhibits above-average growth in financials.
