BLINK CHARGING ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Delayed customer projects are expected in the fourth quarter, subject to customer schedules and project execution.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
Blink Charging (NASDAQ: BLNK) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of approximately $18.4 million as sales declined and adjusted earnings turned positive. Revenue fell 32.0% year over year and 15.1% sequentially. First-ever positive adjusted EBITDA, an earnings measure excluding certain expenses, reached $0.2 million, versus a $7.3 million loss a year earlier.
GAAP net loss widened to $6.7 million from $0.3 million. Gross margin fell to 26.3%, including approximately $3 million in non-cash inventory charges; non-GAAP gross margin rose to 55.0%. Cash ended September at approximately $30.5 million, with no debt. Blink cut its 2026 revenue outlook to $78 million–$81 million from $83 million–$90 million and expects positive adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter. Michael Battaglia became chairman on November 3 while remaining CEO; Ritsaart van Montfrans became lead independent director.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Blink Charging Co. publicly reports its financial information in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). To facilitate external analysis of the Company’s operating performance, Blink Charging also presents financial information that is considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under Regulation G and related reporting requirements promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, Net Income (Loss) or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different than those presented by other companies, including Blink Charging’s competitors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and are, therefore, considered non-GAAP measures. Blink changed the definitions of its non-GAAP reporting measures in the first quarter of 2026 to align better with its peers and industry standards. Reconciliation tables are presented above.
Non-GAAP Revenues is defined as GAAP total revenues adjusted to exclude revenues attributable to (i) Envoy Technologies, which Blink divested on June 5, 2026, and (ii) a material contract in Europe that was not renewed, each as previously disclosed with the Company’s second quarter 2026 results. Blink Charging believes Non-GAAP Revenues provides investors with a clearer, period-over-period comparable view of revenues from the Company’s continuing core business following these portfolio exit actions. No revenue adjustments were required in the third quarter of 2026.
Non-GAAP Gross Profit is defined as GAAP gross profit adjusted to exclude (i) depreciation and amortization charges included in cost of revenues, and (ii) non-recurring or non-cash charges within cost of revenues (such as inventory write-downs or one-time warranty costs). Blink Charging believes Non-GAAP Gross Profit provides investors with a clearer view of the Company’s underlying operational profitability by removing the impact of asset depreciation related to its charging infrastructure build-out and non-recurring items that are not indicative of ongoing performance. Non-GAAP Gross Margin is Non-GAAP Gross Profit divided by total revenues.
Non-GAAP Operating Expenses is defined as GAAP total operating expenses adjusted to exclude (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) depreciation and amortization within operating expenses, (iii) non-recurring and non-cash charges (including severance and retention payments, executive recruiting fees, one-time legal and consulting costs, and charges related to discontinued software or services), and (iv) other adjustments. Blink Charging believes Non-GAAP Operating Expenses is a useful measure for investors to assess the Company’s structural cost base and ongoing operating expense discipline, as it removes the impact of non-cash compensation, asset depreciation, and one-time charges that do not reflect recurring operational costs.
Non-GAAP Net Loss excludes stock-based compensation, non-recurring and non-cash charges, and changes in fair value of consideration payable, but unlike Adjusted EBITDA, retains the impact of depreciation and amortization within operating expenses and interest income/expense. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a full reconciliation.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Non-GAAP Net Loss adjusted to add back: (i) provision for income taxes; (ii) depreciation and amortization within operating expenses; less (iii) net interest and other income (expense). This reconciliation bridge corresponds directly to the line items presented in the Non-GAAP reconciliation tables above.
Blink Charging believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to management, securities analysts, and investors to evaluate the Company’s core operating performance because it removes the impact of non-cash charges, non-recurring items, financing activity, taxes, and capital investment depreciation that are not indicative of the Company’s recurring operational results. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, Net Loss or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP EPS may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as Net Loss, and Diluted Earnings per Share.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS is defined as GAAP net loss per diluted share adjusted to exclude, on a per-share basis, the same non-cash and non-recurring items used in the Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation: (i) stock based compensation, (ii) non-recurring and non-cash charges, (iii) change in fair value related to consideration payable, (iv) provision for income taxes, (v) interest expense, and (vi) depreciation and amortization. Blink Charging believes Non-GAAP EPS is a useful supplemental measure for investors as it provides a per-share view of the Company’s core operating performance on a basis consistent with Adjusted EBITDA, excluding non-cash and non-recurring items that management does not consider reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations. Non-GAAP EPS should not be confused with GAAP diluted EPS and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share.
Investors should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations. In particular, certain adjustments to Blink’s GAAP results — such as stock-based compensation — are recurring in nature and are expected to continue for the foreseeable future; stock-based compensation is a meaningful component of employee compensation and plays an important role in Blink’s ability to attract, retain, and motivate its workforce. In addition, Blink’s non-GAAP measures are not calculated pursuant to any standardized GAAP methodology, and the specific items Blink excludes may differ from those excluded by other companies presenting similarly titled non-GAAP measures, which may limit comparability. Blink may also, in future periods, exclude additional items it determines are not reflective of its core operating performance.
