FuelCell Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) stock is trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/g44243423/fuelcell-energy-reports-first-quarter-of-fiscal-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter 2025 financial results</a>.
FCEL reported a first-quarter revenue increase of 14% year-over-year to $18.997 million, missing the consensus of $33.49 million.
FuelCell&#8217;s gross loss was $5.203 million, an improvement from the previous year&#8217;s loss of $11.725 million. The company reported a loss per share of $1.42, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the consensus loss of $1.35.</a>
The decrease in gross loss was mainly due to lower generation costs, driven by a $1.8 million derivative gain versus a $1.9 million derivative&nbsp;loss year over year. Lower expensed construction costs for the Toyota Project also contributed, dropping to $0.3 million from $3.5 million year over year.
Service agreement revenue rose to $1.8 million from $1.6 million YoY, driven by the company&#8217;s long-term contract with GGE&#8217;s 58.8 MW fuel cell plant in Korea.

Generation revenue rose to $11.3 million from $10.5 million YoY, driven by new output from two Derby, Connecticut projects, partially offset by lower output at other plants due to maintenance.
Operating expenses decreased to $27.6 million from $30.8 million year over year. Administrative and selling expenses fell to $15.0 million from $16.4 million, due to reduced compensation costs following recent restructuring efforts. Adjusted EBITDA loss improved to $21.1 million from a loss of $29.1 million.
In November 2024, the company launched a global restructuring across the U.S., Canada, and Germany to cut costs, refocus on core technologies, and adapt to slower clean energy investments. The plan includes a 13% workforce reduction and aims to lower operating costs by about 15% in FY25 compared to FY24.
Total cash, restricted cash, and short-term investments were $270.7 million at the end of the quarter, down from $318.0 million on October 31, 2024. This included $98.1 million in unrestricted cash, $110.3 million in short-term investments, and $62.4 million in restricted cash.
As of January 31, 2025, the backlog rose 28% year over year to $1.31 billion, driven by the GGE service agreement and a new 20-year power purchase deal for a 7.4 MW plant in Hartford, CT.
During the quarter, the company sold ~0.7 million shares at an average price of $9.19, generating $6.3 million in gross proceeds and $5.9 million in net proceeds after commissions and fees.
Recently, Diversified Energy, FuelCell Energy, and TESIAC formed a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/03/44216471/fuelcell-energy-diversified-energy-tesiac-join-forces-to-meet-growing-ai-power-demands" rel="noreferrer noopener">strategic partnership</a> to supply up to 360 MW of net-zero power to data centers in Virginia, West Virginia, and Kentucky.
&#8220;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,&#8221; commented Jason Few, President and Chief Executive Ocer.
Price Action: FCEL shares are trading lower by 4.19% at $6.065 at the last check Tuesday.

Diversified, FuelCell Energy And TESIAC Form Acquisition And Development Company T Deliver Net-Zero Power For Data Centers

FuelCell Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) and Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Sdn Bhd (MMHE), a wholly owned subsidiary of Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Holdings Berhad (KLSE: MHB), have announced the signing of a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) to co-develop large-scale hydrogen production systems and technologies across Asia, New Zealand, and Australia.
Building on a memorandum of understanding signed in February 2023, the JDA represents a pivotal step for the two companies, driven by a shared vision to make clean hydrogen production easily accessible and viable. The collaboration underscores FuelCell Energy and MHB's commitment to advancing green energy solutions and supporting global decarbonization and energy transition goals.
Under the terms of the JDA, the two companies will bring together FuelCell Energy's cutting-edge solid oxide electrolyzer (SOEC) technology and MHB's expertise in large-scale fabrication to develop modular solutions that support rapid deployment of commercial hydrogen production.
&nbsp;
Project Award: Detailed Feasibility Study (DFS) in Malaysia
In conjunction with the JDA, FuelCell Energy and MHB are collaborating to support a contract awarded to FuelCell Energy for a Detailed Feasibility Study (DFS) of a low-carbon fuel production facility in Malaysia. The DFS will evaluate the production of low-carbon fuel utilizing SOEC technology with carbon dioxide and water as feedstocks.
Additionally, as part of the DFS, the companies will collaborate with KBR LLC, which will provide its proprietary low-carbon fuel synthesis technology.
The project aligns with Malaysia's goals to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, while advancing its national hydrogen value chain.

FuelCell Energy and MMHE Partner to Expand Large-Scale Hydrogen Production Across Asia and Australia

FuelCell Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) shares are trading higher. The company on Thursday announced that it began testing its electrolyzer for a potential commercial <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43525539/idaho-national-laboratory-testing-of-fuelcell-energys-electrolyzer-to-show-further-commercializati">nuclear power opportunity</a>.
What Happened: FuelCell announced its solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) system has started a testing and validation period at the U.S. Department of Energy&#8217;s Idaho National Laboratory (INL). 
The project will study how hydrogen production operations can help nuclear plants diversify and increase their profitability by switching between electricity production and hydrogen generation. The testing will also investigate the potential of advanced small modular reactors paired with FuelCell&#8217;s utility-scale electrolyzers.
&#8220;Pairing FuelCell Energy&#8217;s electrolyzer with nuclear plants is an excellent example of the ‘all-of-the-above&#8217; energy strategy that is necessary to meet the needs of a strained electric infrastructure,&#8221; said Jason Few, president and CEO of FuelCell Energy.
&#8220;Nuclear energy is a baseload power source that when paired with FuelCell Energy&#8217;s electrolyzer can ensure that every kilowatt of power is converted into a usable or stored energy resource. FuelCell Energy&#8217;s electrolysis platform can enable&nbsp;100%&nbsp;smart energy utilization.&#8221;
The testing is expected to show that the technology can reduce the cost of clean hydrogen production by converting 100% of the electricity and water fed into the system into zero-carbon hydrogen. 
The FuelCell Energy system will be exhibited to members of the global energy industry who visit INL. Additionally,&nbsp;hydrogen produced by the FuelCell system will be used for ongoing research at the facility.

FuelCell Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) shares are trading higher Wednesday after the company announced plans to build a fuel cell power plant that&#8217;s expected to add over&nbsp;$160 million&nbsp;to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g43124224/fuelcell-energy-announces-160-million-contract-to-support-hartford-area-grid">its generation backlog</a>.
What Happened: FuelCell on Wednesday announced it will build a 7.4 MW fuel cell power plant in Hartford, Connecticut that will deliver Class 1 renewable baseload power to the state&#8217;s local grid.
FuelCell said it plans to sell the power produced by the fuel cell plant to local distribution utilities Eversource and United Illuminating under a 20-year power purchase agreement. The project is expected to add more than $160 million of future revenue to the company&#8217;s backlog. 
&#8220;Society is increasingly reliant on always-available electric power to meet data center, streaming, and cloud computing demand, as well as the proliferation of electric-hungry devices from cell phones to cars and trucks,&#8221; said Jason Few, president and CEO of FuelCell Energy.
&#8220;We are well positioned to participate in the renaissance of infrastructure investments occurring in the U.S. at a time when the federal government is clearly signaling a focus on how AI will impact our electrical grid.&#8221;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy FCEL Stock</h3>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in FuelCell Energy's case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
FCEL Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/fcel">FuelCell shares</a> were up 6.7% at $9.59 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

FuelCell Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) shares are trading lower after the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42573324/fuelcell-energy-reports-fourth-quarter-and-full-fiscal-year-2024-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported its fourth quarter 2024 results.</a>
The company&#8217;s total revenues grew 120% year-over-year to $49.326 million, beating the consensus of $39.716 million.
Product revenues rose to $25.4 million for the three months ending October 31, 2024, from $10.5 million a year earlier. The increase was driven by $18.0 million from the GGE Agreement for fuel cell module replacements in Korea and $7.7 million from a sales contract with Ameresco for a 2.8 MW platform for the Sacramento Sewer District.
Service agreements revenue rose to $5.6 million from $(0.8) million, driven by two module exchanges during the quarter. Generation revenue increased 40.3% to $12.0 million due to the Toyota and Derby projects.
Advanced Technologies revenue grew to $6.4 million, supported by ExxonMobil&#8216;s Rotterdam project and government contracts, offset by $0.8 million lower revenue from the EMTEC Joint Development Agreement.
The company reported a loss per share of $2.21, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the consensus loss of $1.75</a>. The company reported a gross loss of $10.9 million, down from the previous year&#8217;s $1.5 million loss.
Operating expenses for the quarter decreased to $30.1 million from $34.9 million the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA loss improved to $25.3 million in the quarter from the $30.8 million loss a year ago.
In November, FCEL announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/24/11/42011849/restructure-and-recharge-fuelcell-cuts-workforce-plans-to-reduce-operating-costs-by-15-in-2025" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">global restructuring </a>in the U.S., Canada, and Germany to reduce operating costs by 15% in fiscal 2025, including a 13% workforce reduction. Delays in solid oxide and carbon capture product timelines mean it will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">not meet revenue targets provided in fiscal 2022. </a>
However, FuelCell expects a material revenue improvement in fiscal 2025, driven by contracted deliveries, including replacement modules for GGE.
As of October 31, 2024, FuelCell&nbsp;had $318.0 million in cash, restricted cash, and short-term investments, down from $403.3 million in 2023. This included $148.1 million in unrestricted cash, $109.1 million in investments, and $60.8 million in restricted cash.
During the quarter, the company sold 1.9 million shares under its Amended Open Market Sale Agreement at $11.23 per share, generating $21.5 million in gross proceeds and $20.8 million net after $0.6 million in fees.
As of October 31, 2024, FCEL&#8217;s backlog rose 13.1% to $1.16 billion year-over-year, driven by the GGE Agreement. The backlog includes product, service, and generation agreements, with a weighted average term of 16 years.
Price Action: FCEL shares are trading lower by 3.05% at $9.52 at the last check Thursday.

It's no secret that clean energy technology specialist FuelCell Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) has thoroughly struggled this year, with FCEL stock hemorrhaging about 77% of market value since the beginning of January. On paper, the underlying company's business of developing and delivering fuel cell systems — which convert hydrogen into electricity — is highly relevant. Unfortunately, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FCEL/earnings">declining revenue</a> from prior years contributed to investor sentiment erosion.
In mid-November, management announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/24/11/42011849/restructure-and-recharge-fuelcell-cuts-workforce-plans-to-reduce-operating-costs-by-15-in-2025">global restructuring effort</a> to reduce costs and focus on core technologies, part of an overall response to slower-than-expected clean energy investments. Within the plan, FuelCell stated that it would reduce its workforce by 17% and slash spending on product development, overhead and other expenses. The company anticipates that the directive will lower operating costs by approximately 15% in fiscal year 2025 compared to 2024.

Since announcing this strategic shift, FCEL stock has rebounded from the abyss. At its trough this year, shares traded hands for less than $6. However, since late last month, FCEL jumped above the all-important $10 technical support line. Should the bulls continue to maintain level flight, the energy specialist could potentially enjoy a sentiment reversal.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Short-Squeeze Speculation Entices an Aggressive Long Strategy</h2>
Currently, FCEL stock ranks among Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/short-interest/most-shorted">Most Shorted Stocks</a> list, a screener dedicated to securities that have attracted the most <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-high-short-interest-stocks">short interest</a>. This label refers to the total number of shares of a company that have been borrowed and sold by speculators betting that the stock will fall.
The idea is that by borrowing and immediately selling a downbeat security, the speculator can pick up shares at a cheaper price. Following the return of the borrowed amount of shares back to the lending broker, the short trader pockets the difference as profit. Obviously, the target security must fall in value for a short position to be profitable.
Of course, with the market being unpredictable, short traders have incurred devastating losses due to the stock in question shooting skyward. When an unexpected bullish wave materializes, the upside pressure can be exacerbated. That's because a short trader must buy to close the position, creating in effect a self-fulfilling prophecy.
This upward panic — colloquially known as a short squeeze — can be incredibly powerful, especially if the contrarian bull gets in ahead of the panic.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Heightened Options Activity Tempts the Contrarian Mindset</h2>
To be fair, options volume for FCEL stock has been light compared to prior years due to the escalating financial challenges. However, activity has been <a href="https://optioncharts.io/options/FCEL/unusual-options?option_type=all&amp;expiration_dates=2024-12-20:m,2024-12-27:w,2025-01-03:w,2025-01-10:w,2025-01-17:m,2025-01-24:w,2025-01-31:w,2025-04-17:w&amp;strike_range=all">picking up</a>, particularly for out-the-money (OTM) call options. Though no definitive conclusions can be made, this development may suggest rising bullish interest in FuelCell stock.
Investors interested in taking an aggressive wager may consider a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bull-spread">bull call spread strategy</a>, specifically the 9/12 call spread for the options chain expiring Jan. 17, 2025. This trade involves simultaneously buying the $9 FCEL call and selling the $11 call. The credit received from the short call partially offsets the debit paid for the long call, essentially providing a discounted net long position. In this case, $159 is at risk for the chance to earn $141 (88.68% payout).
True, the bull call spread caps the reward at the short call's strike price. However, the benefit is that the threshold of profitability (or the breakeven point) is reduced. In the case of the 9/12 call spread, the breakeven price (at time of writing) sits at $10.59. Further, FCEL stock needs to rise about 12% to reach the short strike price, which is doable considering recent pricing activity.
Nevertheless, it must be said that FuelCell represents a high-risk, high-reward opportunity. Given the company's history, a continuation of its misery is well within the realm of possibility. However, the bulls&#8217; ability to jump above the critical $10 threshold — combined with management's strategic pivot — could entice contrarian traders.
