#4 - Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG)

Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) has something many in this sector don’t. Actual revenue. Through contracts with Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Walmart (NYSE: WMT), Plug Power has companies that are using its fuel cell technology to power their forklifts. This is important because as the American economy comes out of this pandemic, oil will be at a discount.

That gives the company a compelling use case. However, Plug Power is still not profitable even after 23 years of being a publicly-traded company. This irritates investors who are seeing its revenue climb from $14 million to over $250 million in just one year. The company continues to burn through cash which reflects the problem with using hydrogen as a fuel source.

However, S&P Global Market Intelligence is projecting that Plug Power will be profitable in 2023. Plug Power has also received an encouraging outlook from Barclays Capital. The British firm initiated coverage on PLUG stock with a $7 price target.
