Flex is being re-rated from contract manufacturer to AI infrastructure compounder, with CPI growing 38% and the Q1 2027 spin-off creating a cleaner SOTP setup.

Valuation is demanding at ~35x FY27 EPS, but the setup works if SpinCo earns an AI infrastructure multiple and RemainCo compounds cash flow.
