Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

FuelCell Energy reported results for the third fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2026. Revenue fell 29% year over year and the gross loss widened, but the net loss narrowed because the prior-year period included impairment and restructuring expenses. The company also disclosed a Fit Energy purchase agreement and a first data center capacity reservation, which add to its backlog, though Awarded Capacity Backlog is not contracted revenue.

  • Revenue was $33.0 million versus $46.7 million, and gross loss was $(24.5) million versus $(5.1) million; the company cited $17.0 million in inventory and purchase commitment charges tied to Phase 0 of the Fit Energy agreement.
  • Net loss was $(45.3) million, or $(0.64) per share, compared with $(3.78) per share a year earlier, when impairment expense was $64.5 million.
