Is Argan, Inc. (NYSE:AGX) a buy in 2026?
Yes, on balance. The Compass leans toward accumulating Argan, Inc. at current levels.
The only US EPC contractor with the crews, permits, and gas-turbine slots to actually build the AI power buildout America keeps promising.
Where AGX is headed
Argan's backlog at the last print sat north of $2 billion and the pipeline behind it is bigger than the company itself. That is the reality of building combined-cycle gas plants in 2026: there are maybe half a dozen EPC firms in North America that can actually execute a 1+ GW project on time, and Argan (through Gemma Power) is one of the two you call first. The rest of the industry spent the 2010s losing money on renewables fixed-price contracts (see Fluor, see McDermott, see what's left of Black & Veatch's appetite). Argan spent that decade being boring, cash-generative, and picky. Now the phone rings off the hook.
