Solaris Energy Infrastructure stock slides premarket as traders eye AI data-center power deal and Feb. 24 earnings

February 17, 2026

New York, Feb 17, 2026, 09:21 ET — Premarket

  • Solaris Energy Infrastructure slipped roughly 2% in premarket trading.
  • The company’s freshly announced 500-MW AI data-center power equipment deal is keeping investors’ attention locked in.
  • Earnings are up next, set to hit after the close on Feb. 24. The conference call follows the next morning.

Solaris Energy Infrastructure (SEI) dropped 2.1% to $55.45 before the bell Tuesday. On Friday, the shares closed at $56.63, having traded in a range from $54.87 to $61.36. Market cap stands around $3.9 billion.

U.S. markets came back online Tuesday following the Washington’s Birthday break that closed the NYSE on Monday, with early stock futures signaling a softer start. The holiday pause shifts attention to fast-moving, smaller stocks connected to power and data centers—an area that’s been in the spotlight thanks to ongoing AI infrastructure demand.

Solaris Power Solutions, through an indirect subsidiary, entered into a master equipment rental deal with Hatchbo to deliver over 500 MW of generation equipment for AI data centers, according to a Feb. 12 SEC filing. The rental kicks off Jan. 1, 2027, and runs for a decade—or until both sides ink a power purchase agreement (PPA), whichever comes first. Hatchbo holds a 30-day out clause for convenience. Solaris plans to include the complete agreement in its 2025 annual report as an exhibit.

Earnings are up next. Solaris will report its full-year and Q4 2025 numbers after the bell on Feb. 24, with a conference call slated for 9 a.m. ET on Feb. 25.

Solaris delivers mobile equipment for distributed power generation and also supplies gear to handle raw materials during oil and gas well completions. Operations are broken into two parts: Solaris Power Solutions and Solaris Logistics Solutions.

Investors want sharper details on the pace of new contracts and the speed at which equipment shifts from plans to action. With the market eager for anything tied to reliable data-center revenues, timing has become a key focus.

The outlook isn’t straightforward. The agreement kicks in come 2027, and the customer retains options to pull out if specific conditions crop up—complicating short-term projections. Misses on delivery, commissioning, or cost estimates could quickly sap the strong momentum that’s been building in this trade.

The broader tape can play a role here. With futures tilting down, high-beta names that have rallied sharply are often quick targets—even in the absence of any new headlines.

    August 11, 2026, 4:52 AM EDT. International Workplace Group (IWG) shares dropped more than 11% after Jefferies analysts pointed to cashflow issues, even as revenue climbed 11% to a record $2.4 billion. Adjusted core profit ticked up 1% to $265 million for the first half. IWG kept its 2026 profit target at $585 million-$625 million. Cash flow before corporate costs came in at minus $55 million. On the travel front, Heathrow Airport, which has led Europe since 1996, moved 7.86 million passengers in July, falling behind Istanbul's 8.15 million. Middle East route weakness, hit by US-Israel-Iran strains, weighed on Heathrow. The airport wants government sign-off for a third runway, targeting capacity for 150 million passengers a year as it looks to compete and drive growth.
