Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Bingham Betsy B reported acquisition or exercise transactions in this Form 4 filing.

FuelCell Energy director Betsy B. Bingham received 17,424 Deferred Common Stock Units on April 8, 2026, increasing her directly held deferred units to 18,765. These units were issued under the company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan and are payable in an equal number of common shares upon her separation from board service.

This amendment confirms the correct post-transaction holding of 18,765 derivative securities, consistent with the other Form 4 filed for the same transaction.

  1. Deferred common stock units issued to the reporting person pursuant to the FuelCell Energy, Inc. Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. In accordance with elections made by the reporting person under the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan, the shares of common stock underlying the common stock units are payable to the reporting person, on a one-for-one basis (i.e., one share of common stock for each common stock unit), upon separation from service as a director. On April 10, 2026, two filings reporting the same transaction were made for the reporting person. One of the filings was made in error. That filing incorrectly reported that there were 82,594 derivative securities beneficially owned following the reported transaction. The reporting person is making this filing to correctly reflect the number of derivative securities beneficially owned by the reporting person following the reported transaction. It should be noted that this information is duplicative of the information reported in the other Form 4 filed for the reporting person on April 10, 2026.

Deferred Common Stock Units financial
"Deferred common stock units issued to the reporting person pursuant to the FuelCell Energy, Inc. Directors Deferred Compensation Plan."
Deferred common stock units are promises to deliver company shares or cash tied to the company’s stock value at a later date, typically used as part of employee or executive pay. Think of them like a paycheck you elect to receive in company stock at a future date; they can affect the number of shares outstanding and company expenses, so investors watch them for potential dilution and to understand management’s incentives.
Directors Deferred Compensation Plan financial
"Deferred common stock units issued to the reporting person pursuant to the FuelCell Energy, Inc. Directors Deferred Compensation Plan."
beneficially owned financial
"incorrectly reported that there were 82,594 derivative securities beneficially owned following the reported transaction."
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
separation from service financial
"payable to the reporting person, on a one-for-one basis ... upon separation from service as a director."
