#2 - FuelCell (NASDAQ:FCEL)
On June 12, FuelCell (NASDAQ: FCEL) posted revenue that was 21% higher than analysts’ expectations. But the company delivered earnings per share (EPS) that met expectations with a loss of 7 cents per share. As these things usually go, FCEL stock jumped over 20% on the report.
The stock has since come down a little bit. However, what must be encouraging to investors is that the stock has hit a higher low before starting to increase. It’s too early to say whether the stock is in an uptrend, but there may be a couple of catalysts. First, FuelCell may benefit from two new programs from the Department of Energy (DOE). The DOE is planning to invest $100 million over five years in the programs which “advance hydrogen and fuel cell technologies research and development (R&D).”
The DOE also announced it will begin accepting proposal requests regarding a separate, potentially $24 million project to support its “H2@Scale” initiative.
In its earnings report, FuelCell’s Advanced Technologies business continued to show strength, posting a profit of $200,000 in the quarter. This segment of the business is tied to the company’s partnership with ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM).
