During the three-month period ending January 31, FuelCell’s adjusted net loss came in at 52 cents per share. This narrowed 61% from a net loss of $1.33 per share seen a year ago and is better than the Wall Street estimate of a loss of 68 cents per share.

By contrast, the company’s revenue ballooned from $18.9 million a year ago to reach $30.5 million but missed analysts’ consensus of $42.21 million.

FuelCell, which is based in Connecticut, designs, builds, and sells stationary fuel cell power plants for distributed baseload power generation. Such plants, rather than burning fuel, use chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen to generate clean energy.

CEO Jason Few last month stated that the company “can become a native power backbone for AI factories,” going beyond being a provider of faster or cleaner alternatives to traditional turbines and other forms of power generation.
