Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $41 million, or $0.20 per share, compared to a loss of $33 million, or $3.97 per share, last year. Analysts had forecast a loss of $0.08 per share. The lower net loss per share reflects higher weighted average shares outstanding.
During the quarter, Generation
revenues jumped by 268% to $5.4 million due to additional revenue from the
Bridgeport Fuel Cell Park power purchase agreement. Advanced Technologies
contract revenues rose by 15% to $5.2 million, helped by the joint development agreement
with ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM) and the development of FuelCell’s solid oxide
platform.
FuelCell delivered a gross
profit of $3.3 million versus a loss of $2.2 million last year, helped by its
restructuring efforts in 2019 that generated lower manufacturing costs and
license revenues. Operating expenses were $6.4 million, down 51% from last
year.
At quarter-end, the company had a backlog of $1.36 billion. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $73.9 million as of January 31, 2020.
