Bloom Energy’s first-quarter exceeds expectations

Projected first-quarter returns were between USD 140 million and USD 160 million. In the end, Bloom Energy took in USD 156.7 million. However, if I interpret the numbers right, another USD 40 million was shifted to the second quarter. From projects that have not been billed yet, I do believe. The company’s bottom line posts a USD 9.8 million loss, according to GAAP, far less than the predicted USD 15 million to USD 25 million.

Cash on hand remained more or less steady at USD 354 million, although this includes restricted cash and power purchase agreements.

One intriguing management statement tells us Bloom Energy [NYSE: BE] is currently prefabricating to reliably deliver an expected peak demand in the second half of 2020. Not one project was cancelled because of Covid-19; not one customer lost. I am looking forward to this quarter’s results – breakeven? – and especially to the second half year, which should ultimately be a good year for the company. The number of shorts went down from over 22 million to 19.3 million, implying short sellers also expect the price to go up and are closing out their positions.
