What ePlus does

ePlus inc. (NASDAQ: PLUS) is a publicly traded, Herndon, Virginia-headquartered technology solutions provider founded in 1993 that delivers integrated professional and managed services across AI, security, cloud, data center, collaboration, and networking. The company sells to enterprise and mid-market customers through a direct field sales force and a channel network spanning 1,500+ OEM vendor partnerships with Dell (Titanium), HPE (Triple Platinum Plus), Cisco, NVIDIA (DGX SuperPOD Specialization and DGX-Ready Managed Services Provider), Digital Realty, Lenovo, AWS, and others. Its core proprietary offerings include the AgenticOps AI Platform (built with Cisco and NVIDIA), the AI Experience Center in Ashburn, the Private AI Infrastructure Managed Service, the Secure GenAI Accelerator, and the Memory Optimization and Reclamation Assessment, complemented by acquired capabilities such as Realwave's AI-powered video and IoT analytics (via OneCloud Consulting subsidiary) and Bailiwick's managed IT services for retail and hospitality.

The company makes money through three revenue streams: (1) product sales of OEM hardware, software, and infrastructure—reportedly growing 32.2% on AI demand, (2) professional services for AI, cloud, security, networking, and data center deployments, and (3) recurring managed services with 24x7 monitoring and lifecycle management. Customers span State, Local & Education (SLED), healthcare, financial services, retail/hospitality, energy & utilities, manufacturing, transportation, and service provider verticals, with named engagements including a large financial institution (40,000 remote workers enabled), Rowan University, and Bryn Mawr Trust.

For FY2026 (ended March 31, 2026), ePlus reported record net sales of $2.44 billion, up 22.1% year-over-year, record gross billings of $3.8 billion, and net earnings from continuing operations of $124.1 million, up 62.4%. The company operates globally across the U.S., U.K., Europe, and Asia-Pacific, employs 2,130+ staff with 5,500+ certifications, and holds SOC 1, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 9001, HIPAA, and PCI DSS attestations. In June 2025, ePlus divested its U.S. financing business to PEAC Solutions (HPS Investment Partners portfolio company) to focus on IT services, and in August 2025 initiated a quarterly cash dividend subsequently raised to $0.27 per share. Leadership under CEO Mark Marron and CFO Elaine Marion continues an active M&A and AI platform expansion program following the February 2026 passing of co-founder Phil Norton.
