Driscoll wrote:
“CT clean energy awards the next catalyst. FuelCell Energy (FCEL) delivered F2Q18 revenues and EPS below our estimates, largely from the timing of additions to its power generation portfolio and a $0.4M charge to COGS for abandoning a small project no longer deemed economically viable. FCEL’s record backlog of $1.6B and recent ITC extension support the transition to building its power generation portfolio, which remains on track to grow almost 3X to reach over 30 MW (generating electricity revenues under long-term PPAs) by FYE18. Management detailed the financing needs and economics of a theoretical $40M project (we estimate 12 MW) that would utilize project debt for construction and FCEL’s working capital position and deliver ~40% EBITDA margins.”
