Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Capstone Energy+, Inc. reported fiscal first quarter 2027 results for the period ended June 30, 2026. Revenue was $24.9 million, down from $27.9 million a year earlier, mainly due to timing of large product orders, project milestones, shipment schedules and lower rental utilization.

Despite lower revenue, gross profit rose 16% to $8.8 million and gross margin expanded to 35% from 27%, driven by a favorable product mix, cost-reduction initiatives and Distribution Services. Income from operations was $1.0 million versus a prior operating loss of $0.2 million. Net income was $0.04 million, compared with a net loss of $0.7 million, although PIK dividends on preferred stock resulted in a net loss available to common shareholders of $0.9 million and a reported net loss per share of $0.03.

Adjusted EBITDA was $2.7 million, flat year over year. Cash and restricted cash totaled $32.3 million at June 30, 2026, up from $28.9 million at March 31, 2026. Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.4 million, versus net cash used of $1.6 million in the prior-year quarter, benefiting from a $3.7 million customer deposit tied to an order scheduled for year-end delivery.

Positive

  • Gross profit and margin improved materially, with gross profit up to $8.8 million and gross margin expanding to 35% from 27%, reflecting better mix and cost controls.
  • Return to operating profitability, shifting from a $0.2 million operating loss in Q1 2026 to $1.0 million of income from operations in Q1 2027.
  • Strong operating cash flow swing, from net cash used of $1.6 million to $5.4 million provided by operating activities, boosting cash and restricted cash to $32.3 million.

Negative

  • Revenue declined over 10%, falling to $24.9 million from $27.9 million, driven by order timing and weaker rental utilization.
  • Common shareholders still incur losses, with net loss available to common and non-voting common stockholders of $0.9 million and a basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.03.
  • Balance sheet remains highly leveraged, with total liabilities of $85.1 million, redeemable preferred stock of $74.9 million, and a stockholders’ deficit of $45.2 million.

Stockholders’ Deficit $45.2 million Total stockholders’ deficit at June 30, 2026
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric reconciled below, was $2.7 million"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
redeemable preferred stock financial
"Redeemable preferred stock, $0.001 par value; 1,000,000 shares authorized"
A redeemable preferred stock is an ownership share that pays a steady dividend and gives holders priority over common shareholders for dividends and bankruptcy payouts, but can be bought back by the issuing company at a predetermined price or after a set date. It matters to investors because it combines income-like stability with limited upside—think of it as a preferred seat with an exit button the issuer can press—so you gain income and safety relative to common stock but face the risk of being forced to sell back at the issuer’s chosen price.
Exit notes financial
"Exit notes, net of discount, current | $ | 25,337"
Exit notes are short-term IOUs or debt obligations that become payable or convert into equity when a company undergoes a liquidity event, such as a sale or public offering. For investors and shareholders they matter because exit notes can change who gets paid first and how much equity is diluted at the time of a sale—think of them as a loan that must be settled from the proceeds when the company’s ownership changes hands.
factory protection plan liability financial
"Factory protection plan liability | $ | 4,904"
Energy as a Service technical
"Capstone also offers flexible Energy as a Service solutions"
A business model where customers pay a provider to deliver and manage their energy needs—such as electricity supply, on-site generation, storage, efficiency upgrades and billing—rather than buying or operating the equipment themselves. For investors, it matters because it converts one-time sales into recurring, contract-backed revenue streams, shifts capital and operational risk from the customer to the provider, and ties returns to long-term performance and regulatory changes; think of it like subscribing to an internet service instead of owning the modem and wiring.

Capstone Energy+ Reports Results for First Quarter of Fiscal 2027

Gross Profit Increased 16% to $8.8 Million

Company Generated $5.4 Million in Operating Cash Flow

LOS ANGELES, CA / BUSINESS WIRE / August 12, 2026Capstone Energy+, Inc. (NASDAQ: CEPL) (“Capstone” or the “Company”), a leading provider of behind-the-meter clean microturbine energy solutions for industrial and commercial businesses, as well as solutions designed for emerging data center applications, today reported its financial results for the fiscal first quarter 2027, ended June 30, 2026.

Fiscal First Quarter 2027 and Recent Operational Highlights

Commenced trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the ticker symbol “CEPL.” The Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on July 8th, a milestone that broadens access to institutional investors and enhances visibility with the investment community.
Secured a CHP project for a premier Utah hospitality destination. The order includes two C800 Signature Series microturbines designed to provide reliable on-site electricity and recovered thermal energy for a large-scale golf and hospitality resort, showing the economic and operational benefits of combined heat and power in energy-intensive commercial settings.
Received a follow-on order from Chilean state-owned energy company ENAP. The additional C800 Signature Series microturbine will expand the Capstone-powered system at ENAP’s Gregorio Refinery from 1.4 MW to 2.2 MW, reinforcing the reliability of Capstone’s technology in remote, mission-critical environments.
Expanded the Energy-as-a-Service model through a flare-gas recovery project in Gabon. Under a 36-month lease-to-own agreement, Capstone will provide a C600 Signature Series microturbine to Maurel & Prom to convert recovered associated gas into reliable on-site electricity.
Advanced a 2 MW CHP installation at Scripps Mercy Hospital San Diego. Two C1000 Signature Series microturbines are designed to provide highly efficient on-site electricity and thermal energy while supporting island-mode operation during utility outages.

Fiscal First Quarter 2027 Financial Results

Results compare the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2026 (“Q1 2027”) to the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2025 (“Q1 2026”) unless otherwise indicated.

Revenue for Q1 2027 was $24.9 million, compared to $27.9 million in Q1 2026. The decrease was primarily due to the timing of large product orders, project milestones and shipment schedules, as well as lower rental utilization amid uncertainty surrounding oil prices. The performance was partially offset by growth in Parts and Service revenue, which increased 21% to $9.7 million.

Gross profit for Q1 2027 increased 16% to $8.8 million, up from $7.6 million, while gross margin expanded 800 basis points to 35% from 27%. The improvement primarily reflected a favorable product mix, including the sale of previously rented microturbine systems, the continued benefit of cost-reduction initiatives, and a contribution from Distribution Services revenue. Income from operations was $1.0 million, compared to a loss from operations of $0.2 million in Q1 2026.


Net income for Q1 2027 was approximately $0.04 million, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million in Q1 2026.

Reported net loss per share for Q1 2027 was $0.03, compared to a reported net loss per share of $0.04 in Q1 2026. Q1 2027 net loss attributable to common stockholders included a $1.0 million non-cash adjustment related to the accretion of the Operating Subsidiary’s Preferred Units despite operating net income.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric reconciled below, was $2.7 million for each of the Q1 2027 and 2026 periods.

Cash and restricted cash totaled $32.3 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $28.9 million at March 31, 2026. Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.4 million in Q1 2027, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1.6 million in Q1 2026. Operating cash flow benefited from a $3.7 million customer deposit associated with an order scheduled for delivery at the end of the fiscal year.

Management Commentary

“We continued to demonstrate improvement in our underlying earnings power in Q1, even as quarterly revenue was affected by the timing of large product shipments and lower rental-fleet utilization,” said Vince Canino, President and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone Energy+. “We expanded gross margin by 800 basis points year over year, generated positive operating income, and produced $5.4 million in operating cash flow, demonstrating our three-pillar strategy continues to be a positive impact on our business even during some market turbulence.”

“Our activity during and after the quarter demonstrated the breadth of the markets Capstone can serve. Recent projects across healthcare, hospitality, and flare-gas recovery show the value of reliable, efficient, and scalable on-site power in environments where energy is critical. Our priorities for the balance of Fiscal 2027 focus on activity in our Major Growth Markets, in particular, Data Centers and Ports.  Activity has steadily increased over the prior quarter.”

The Company has tried to identify these forward-looking statements by using words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “should,” “estimate,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” “goal” and similar terms and phrases, but such words, terms and phrases are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the Company’s liquidity position and ability to access capital, including the Company’s ability to repay or refinance outstanding indebtedness; the Company’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of its financial restructuring; the Company’s ability to comply with the restrictions imposed by covenants contained in the exit financing; the uncertainty associated with the imposition of tariffs and trade barriers and changes in trade policies; employee attrition, and the Company’s ability to retain senior management and other key personnel; the Company's ability to develop new products and enhance existing products; product quality issues, including the adequacy of reserves therefor and warranty cost exposure; intense competition; financial performance of the oil, natural gas and AI industries and other general

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring costs. Management believes that the use of such non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments, which we view as a better measure of our operating performance. Refer to the attached table for the reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.

To supplement the Company’s unaudited financial data presented on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, management has presented Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure is among the indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating the Company’s financial performance as well as for forecasting future periods. Management establishes performance targets, annual budgets and makes operating decisions based in part upon this metric. Accordingly, disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with the same information that management uses to understand the company’s economic performance year-over-year.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before stock-based compensation, restructuring, financing, non-recurring legal, and restatement and SEC investigation expenses. Restructuring expenses relate to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing and financing expenses related to the evaluation and negotiation of the Company’s senior indebtedness. Shareholder litigation expense resulting from the restatement of the Company’s financials and non-recurring legal expenses are one-time non-recurring legal fees. Restatement expenses are professional fees related to the restatement of the Company’s prior year financials. SEC investigation expenses relate to the costs arising from the restatement of the Company’s financials. Merger and acquisition expense relates to expenses incurred for the acquisition of Cal Microturbine.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of the Company’s liquidity or financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of its liquidity.

While management believes that the Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of this non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the methods of calculation. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered


in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
