Description: FELE Electric January 10, 2026
Franklin Electric Co., Inc. (NASDAQ: FELE) designs, manufactures, and distributes water- and fuel-pumping systems across North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific, operating through three segments: Water Systems, Energy Systems, and Distribution.
The Water Systems segment supplies motors, pumps, treatment equipment, and electronic drives for residential, agricultural, municipal, and industrial water-handling applications, emphasizing protection features such as surge suppression and dry-well safeguards. The Energy Systems segment focuses on pumps, motors, piping, vapor-recovery components, and intelligent monitoring devices for power-utility, hydro-electric, rail, telecom, and data-center infrastructure. The Distribution segment provides presale technical support and sells to wholesale, specialty, and OEM distributors, as well as directly to oil, utility, and equipment manufacturers.
Key operating metrics (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly $1.5 billion, an operating margin near 13 %, and a 5-year compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~4 % in the Water Systems segment, driven by U.S. water-infrastructure spending projected to rise ~4 % per year through 2028. In the Energy Systems segment, demand is increasingly linked to renewable-energy projects-global renewable-capacity additions are forecast to exceed 500 GW annually, boosting the need for reliable submersible pumps and monitoring solutions.
Given the blend of stable utility-related cash flows and exposure to growing infrastructure spend, FELE warrants a closer look; for a deeper dive into its valuation metrics, you might explore the analysis on ValueRay.
