In short: A deal the arb screens missed, flagged as a name to buy weaker. "Navitas has agreed to acquire power management technology firm Claros in a deal valued at 232.8 million. The consideration includes 216 million of cash and stock at closing" (the balance in milestone stock). Claros, founded February 2025, "makes vertical power delivery and integrated voltage regulator, IVR, technology for next-generation AI data centers." The strategic case is physical: "the technology addresses a major growing challenge for AI infrastructure — delivering thousands of amps to increasingly power-hungry processors at extremely high speed. Traditional voltage regulators distribute power across circuit boards, creating losses… Claros's technology moves the power conversion closer to the processor, reducing the distance power needs to travel and potentially improving efficiency and power density." The number: it "would more than double its 2030 server serviceable addressable market to over 8 billion and accelerate revenue growth and margin expansion." His conclusion: "this acquisition significantly expands their addressable market. So on pullbacks, this NVTS could be interesting." Shares rose 6% on the announcement; the deal closes before year-end.
Navitas makes power-conversion chips. It has agreed to buy Claros, a company founded only in early 2025, for $232.8 million.
The problem Claros solves is physical rather than computational. An AI accelerator chip draws enormous current — thousands of amps. Traditionally the electricity is converted to the right voltage somewhere else on the circuit board and then travels across the board to the processor, and every centimetre of that journey wastes power as heat. Claros builds the conversion stage directly next to, and above, the processor. Less distance means less loss, and it lets you push more power into the same physical space.
That matters because AI data centres are now limited by power and heat more than by chip supply. Navitas says the deal more than doubles the size of the market it can sell into by 2030, to over $8 billion, and its chief executive frames it as helping "break the AI infrastructure power wall."
Singh's position is a watch rather than a purchase: the shares already rose 6% on the announcement, so "on pullbacks, this NVTS could be interesting." The pattern is one he uses repeatedly — a small company acquiring a genuine bottleneck technology is worth owning, but not at the price the announcement itself creates.
