THESIS
ePlus is a cash-rich IT-solutions reseller and services provider compounding on A.I., cloud and networking demand, growing net sales twenty one percent with earnings up fifty three percent.
Bull lever: A simpler, services-richer model after the financing divestiture, record gross billings, a net-cash balance sheet, and steady capital return via an eight percent dividend hike and buybacks.
Key risk: Gross margin eased to twenty four point six percent on richer product mix; IT reselling is cyclical and exposed to a memory-supply shortage; the FY27 guide is only mid-single-digit growth.
