I would guess that if they were projecting lots of growth in the line, they wouldn't have done a disruptive factory move.
The business growth for power was displacing PA-RISC, SPARC and Itanium... IBM is the last man standing, but are competing against whomever is supplying AMazon, etc for barebones x87. In the IBM line, it's jammed between commodity x86 and high margin zSeries.
