DANBURY, Conn., March 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCEL) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended January 31, 2025.

"We've made measurable strides since our global restructuring was announced early in the first fiscal quarter. Our cost-saving initiatives are already yielding positive outcomes, and our commitment to uncovering and capitalizing on growth opportunities is paying off," said Jason Few, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Compared to the first quarter of last fiscal year, our revenue has grown while our expenses have declined, significantly narrowing our operating losses and accelerating our journey towards profitability. Looking ahead, we expect this quarter will be the low-water mark for our quarterly revenue for fiscal year 2025 based on our expected production and module shipment schedule, especially as it relates to our module deliveries to our customers in Korea."

"We are excited to report concrete progress in our efforts to capture the growing data center market through our planned partnership with Diversified Energy Co. PLC and TESIAC to jointly form, capitalize and operate an acquisition development company, which was announced subsequent to the end of the quarter," added Mr. Few. "We believe this collaborative partnership will meet the urgent need for power demanded by data centers across Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky. In addition, our joint development agreement with Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Sdn Bhd to collaborate on the co-development of large-scale electrolysis systems and technologies focused on E-fuels and decarbonizing petrochemicals across Asia, New Zealand and Australia marks another exciting milestone. Beyond these initiatives, we are making headway with the joint development of our carbon capture technology with ExxonMobil Technology and Engineering Company and have delivered our solid oxide electrolysis cell demonstration unit to the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National Laboratory. Looking to the remainder of fiscal 2025, we see significant opportunity to boost both product and generation revenue, while maintaining cost controls and a steadfast commitment to operational excellence."

First Quarter of Fiscal 2025 Results

(All comparisons are between first quarter of fiscal 2025 and first quarter of fiscal 2024 unless otherwise noted)

First quarter revenue of $19.0 million represents an increase of 14% from the comparable prior year quarter.

Product revenues were $0.1 million compared to no product revenue recognized for the comparable prior year period.

Service agreements revenues increased to $1.8 million from $1.6 million. The increase in service agreements revenues during the three months ended January 31, 2025 was primarily driven by revenue recognized under the Company's long-term service agreement with Gyeonggi Green Energy Co., Ltd. ("GGE") for GGE's 58.8 MW fuel cell power plant platform in Hwasong-si, Korea. There were no module exchanges during either period presented.

Generation revenues increased to $11.3 million from $10.5 million. The increase reflects an increase in revenue of $1.7 million generated by the 14.0 MW Derby Fuel Cell Project and the 2.8 MW SCEF Fuel Cell Project, both located in Derby, Connecticut and both of which became operational in December 2023, partially offset by lower revenue from other plants due to lower output resulting from routine maintenance activities.

Advanced Technologies contract revenues increased to $5.7 million from $4.6 million. Advanced Technologies contract revenues recognized under our Joint Development Agreement with ExxonMobil Technology and Engineering Company ("EMTEC") were approximately $1.2 million, revenues arising from the purchase order received from Esso Nederland B.V. ("Esso"), an affiliate of EMTEC and Exxon Mobil Corporation, related to the Rotterdam project were approximately $3.5 million and revenue recognized under government contracts and other contracts were approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended January 31, 2025. This compares to Advanced Technologies contract revenues recognized under our Joint Development Agreement with EMTEC of approximately $2.5 million, revenue recognized under the Esso purchase order of approximately $1.0 million and revenue recognized under government contracts and other contracts of approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended January 31, 2024.

Gross loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 totaled $(5.2) million, compared to a gross loss of $(11.7) million in the comparable prior year quarter. The decrease in gross loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was primarily related to the lower cost of generation revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 as the Company recorded a derivative gain of $1.8 million, as compared to a derivative loss of $(1.9) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 as a result of net settling certain natural gas purchases under the previous normal purchase normal sale contract designation. The lower cost of generation revenues was also a result of a reduction in the expensed construction costs related to the Toyota Project, which were $0.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to $3.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 (which also included expensed gas costs).

Operating expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased to $27.6 million from $30.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. Administrative and selling expenses decreased to $15.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 from $16.4 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in administrative and selling expenses is primarily due to lower compensation expense as a result of the recent restructuring actions. Research and development expenses decreased to $11.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $14.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in research and development expenses is primarily due to a decrease in spending on our ongoing commercial development efforts related to our solid oxide power generation and electrolysis platforms and carbon separation and carbon recovery solutions compared to the comparable prior year period, as well as a shift in engineering resource allocation toward supporting an increase in funded Advanced Technologies activities.

Net loss was $(32.4) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to net loss of $(44.4) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA totaled $(21.1) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(29.1) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. Please see the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, in the appendix at the end of this release.

The net loss per share attributable to common stockholders in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was $(1.42), compared to $(1.37) in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase in net loss per share is primarily due to the decreased net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest during the three months ended January 31, 2025 (compared to the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest that benefitted the comparable prior year period), partially offset by a decrease in loss from operations. The net loss per common share for the three months ended January 31, 2025 benefited from the higher number of weighted average shares outstanding due to share issuances since January 31, 2024.

Restructuring and Operational Update

In November 2024, we announced a global restructuring of our operations in the U.S., Canada, and Germany that aims to significantly reduce operating costs, realign resources toward advancing the Company's core technologies, and protect the Company's competitive position amid slower-than-expected investments in clean energy. We believe that the restructuring plan will allow us to prioritize commercially available technologies to reflect changing market opportunities with an updated strategic plan. In connection with this restructuring plan, we expect to reduce operating costs by approximately 15% in fiscal year 2025, compared with fiscal year 2024. The restructuring plan included a reduction in our workforce of approximately 13%, or 75 employees, in November 2024 and includes reduced spending for product development, overhead and other costs.

Cash, Restricted Cash and Short-Term Investments

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaled $270.7 million as of January 31, 2025, compared to $318.0 million as of October 31, 2024. Of the $270.7 million as of January 31, 2025, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $98.1 million, short-term investments totaled $110.3 million and restricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $62.4 million. Of the $318.0 million total as of October 31, 2024, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $148.1 million, short-term investments totaled $109.1 million and restricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $60.8 million. Short-term investments represent the amortized cost of U.S. Treasury Securities outstanding and held by the Company as of January 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024.

"During the quarter, we utilized short term cash to build our inventory of modules to be shipped to Korea under our long-term service agreement with GGE, as well as inventory being safe harbored for U.S. projects," said Mr. Michael Bishop, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. "We expect to recognize revenue from the module shipments to GGE in fiscal 2025 and 2026. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we were able to arrange working capital financing from the Export-Import Bank of the United States to support certain obligations under our long-term service agreement with GGE, and we remain focused on finding similar supportive capital structures as we execute on our growth strategy."

During the three months ended January 31, 2025, approximately 0.7 million shares of the Company's common stock were sold under the Company's Open Market Sale Agreement, as amended, at an average sale price of $9.19 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $6.3 million before deducting sales commissions and fees, and net proceeds to the Company of approximately $5.9 million after deducting sales commissions and fees totaling approximately $0.4 million.

Backlog



	As of January 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2025		2024		Change
Product	$	111,211	$	0	$	111,211
Service		172,326		140,361		31,965
Generation		997,397		861,579		135,818
Advanced Technologies		31,566		23,354		8,212
Total Backlog	$	1,312,500	$	1,025,294	$	287,206

As of January 31, 2025, backlog increased by approximately 28.0% to $1.31 billion, compared to $1.03 billion as of January 31, 2024, in part, as a result of the long-term service agreement entered into with GGE (the "GGE Agreement") during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Backlog for the GGE Agreement has been allocated between product backlog and service backlog. Product backlog is being, and will be, recognized as revenue as the Company completes commissioning of the replacement modules. Under the GGE Agreement, commissioning of the first six 1.4-MW replacement fuel cell modules was completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024. An additional 30 1.4-MW replacement fuel cell modules are expected to be commissioned throughout the course of calendar year 2025, and the remaining six 1.4-MW replacement fuel cell modules are expected to be commissioned in the first half of calendar year 2026. Service backlog is being, and will be, recognized as revenue as the Company performs service at the GGE site over the term of the GGE Agreement. Backlog also increased as a result of entering into a 20-year power purchase agreement for a 7.4 MW fuel cell power plant that the Company will build in Hartford, CT. This power purchase agreement has added approximately $167.4 million in backlog.

Backlog represents definitive agreements executed by the Company and our customers. Projects for which we have an executed power purchase agreement ("PPA") or hydrogen power purchase agreement ("HPPA") are included in generation backlog, which represents future revenue under long-term PPAs and HPPAs. The Company's ability to recognize revenue in the future under a PPA or HPPA is subject to the Company's completion of construction of the project covered by such PPA or HPPA. Should the Company not complete the construction of the project covered by a PPA or HPPA, it will forgo future revenues with respect to the project and may incur penalties and/or impairment charges related to the project. Projects sold to customers (and not retained by the Company) are included in product sales and service agreements backlog, and the related generation backlog is removed upon sale. Together, the service and generation portion of backlog had a weighted average term of approximately 16 years as of January 31, 2025, with weighting based on the dollar amount of backlog and utility service contracts of up to 20 years in duration at inception.

Appendix

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Financial results are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Management also uses non-GAAP measures to analyze and make operating decisions on the business. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures of operations and operating performance by the Company.

These supplemental non-GAAP measures are provided to assist readers in assessing operating performance. Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in assessing performance and highlighting trends on an overall basis. Management also believes these measures are used by companies in the fuel cell sector and by securities analysts and investors when comparing the results of the Company with those of other companies. EBITDA differs from the most comparable GAAP measure, net loss attributable to the Company, primarily because it does not include finance expense, income taxes and depreciation of property, plant and equipment and project assets. Adjusted EBITDA adjusts EBITDA for stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, non-cash (gain) loss on derivative instruments and other unusual items, which are considered either non-cash or non-recurring.

While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these measures. The measures are 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 exact method of calculation. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures are 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.

The following table calculates EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles these figures to the GAAP financial statement measure Net loss.
