FuelCell Energy Q2 2026 revenue dips as net loss widens
FuelCell Energy reported second fiscal quarter 2026 revenue of $35.6 million, down 5% year over year, as lower service and generation revenue more than offset higher product and advanced technologies sales.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
FuelCell Energy reported second fiscal quarter 2026 revenue of $35.6 million, down 5% year over year, as lower service and generation revenue more than offset higher product and advanced technologies sales. Backlog was $1.14 billion as of April 30, 2026, about 9.9% lower than a year earlier.
Net loss widened to $77.6 million from $37.7 million, largely due to a $42.6 million impairment tied to upgrading equipment at the Groton Project, while Adjusted EBITDA improved modestly to $(17.1) million from $(19.3) million. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash rose to $440.9 million, helped by at-the-market stock sales totaling roughly $153.3 million in net proceeds, as the company plans to expand its Torrington facility toward an annualized production rate of up to 500 MW.

Insights
Results show deeper GAAP losses driven by an impairment, modest non-GAAP improvement, and significant equity-funded growth plans.
FuelCell Energy posted Q2 2026 revenue of $35.6M, down 5% year over year, with weakness in service and generation partly offset by higher product and advanced technologies revenue. Backlog declined to $1.14B, down about 9.9%, mainly as previously signed projects converted to revenue.
GAAP net loss more than doubled to $77.6M, primarily because of a $42.6M impairment related to upgrading the Groton project to three 2.5 MW FCE Blocks. On a non-GAAP basis, Adjusted EBITDA improved to $(17.1)M from $(19.3)M, reflecting lower cash operating costs.
Liquidity strengthened, with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash rising to $440.9M as of April 30, 2026, supported by at-the-market stock sales that brought in about $153.3M in net proceeds. The company targets expanding Torrington capacity to support up to 500 MW of annualized production over the next twenty four months, with estimated expansion costs of $200–$275M. Subsequent filings may provide more detail on execution progress and capital deployment for this expansion.
