Bloom Energy Sets Sights on Profitability in 2024 Through Cost Cuts and Margin Focus
-
Focused on improving financial health in 2024 - reducing cash burn by 70%, lowering CapEx, reducing inventory investment, raising prices, consolidating facilities, reducing costs.
-
Targeting positive cash flow in next 12 months through margin improvements, working capital reductions, tempering spending on new platforms.
-
Revenue growth expected in 2024 but at lower rate than historical trends due to focus on pricing, margins, cash management.
-
Strong electrolyzer backlog for 2024, margin improvements expected. Large scale projects pushing more into 2025.
-
Conditional approval of $1.6 billion DOE loan facility expected by end of March. Not dependent on this for 2024 operations. Will support project investments in 2H 2024 & beyond.
