Plug Power delude Wall Street: risultati sotto le aspettative

Plug Power Inc

Plug Power, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) shares are trading higher on Thursday after it announced record-breaking production figures <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45665465/plug-powers-georgia-hydrogen-plant-sets-u-s-production-record-using-plug-electrolyzer-technology" rel="noreferrer noopener">from its hydrogen facility in Georgia</a>.
The milestone adds momentum to Plug&#8217;s broader ambitions in the clean energy space as it continues expanding its hydrogen generation network.
The company revealed that its liquid hydrogen facility in Woodbine, Georgia produced 300 metric tons of liquid hydrogen in April 2025, marking its highest monthly output since operations began.

The site, which launched in January 2024, stands as the largest electrolytic liquid hydrogen plant in the United States and is a core element of Plug&#8217;s vertically integrated clean energy strategy.
Powered by Plug&#8217;s proprietary GenEco proton exchange membrane electrolyzer technology, the Georgia plant was built to deliver 15 tons per day at full capacity.
According to Andy Marsh, Plug&#8217;s CEO, &#8220;Plug&#8217;s Georgia plant is doing exactly what it was built to do, delivering real hydrogen at real scale using Plug technology.&#8221;
Marsh emphasized that the operation reflects Plug&#8217;s commitment to commercial hydrogen production, rather than just pilot programs or conceptual initiatives.
The Woodbine facility is one of several sites within Plug&#8217;s expanding U.S. hydrogen infrastructure, which includes plants in Tennessee and Louisiana.
Combined, these operations are capable of producing 40 tons of liquid hydrogen daily, securing Plug&#8217;s position as the nation&#8217;s largest liquid hydrogen producer.
Jose Luis Crespo, Plug&#8217;s Chief Revenue Officer, stated that strong output in Georgia validates customer demand for GenEco electrolyzers and strengthens long-term growth.
&#8220;Producing and delivering hydrogen with our own technology strengthens customer value, improves margins, and supports long-term commercial growth,&#8221; he said.
According to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>, PLUG stock has lost over 70% in the past year. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Global X Hydrogen ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYDR#NASDAQ">HYDR</a>).
Price Action: PLUG shares are trading higher by 2.45% to $0.9492&nbsp;at last check Thursday.

Plug Power's Record Hydrogen Output In Georgia Signals Growth Potential

Plug Power's Woodbine Plant Produces 300 Metric Tons Of Liquid Hydrogen In April 2025, Says It Set New US Record

Shares of Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) surged 15.7% to 91 cents on Wednesday afternoon despite no company-specific news that day. The stock has risen 4.7% in May, buoyed by a mix of executive actions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45469124/plug-power-stock-is-down-21-this-week-whats-going-on">strategic updates</a> and new financing developments.
What To Know: On Tuesday, Plug Power <a href="https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0001093691/58c125fa-cbea-4fe3-a188-4c7a9f678b96.pdf">filed</a> a mixed shelf offering, allowing the company to issue various securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt and warrants, over time as needed. While such filings can raise dilution concerns, they also provide financial flexibility amid ongoing liquidity challenges.
Earlier this month, on May 16, shares rose following a mixed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45387898/plug-power-stock-is-tumbling-tuesday-whats-going-on">first-quarter earnings</a> report. The company reported revenue of $133.67 million, beating estimates and up 11% year-over-year, fueled by a 575% jump in GenEco electrolyzer sales. 
However, a wider-than-expected net loss of 21 cents per share sparked caution among analysts, who flagged liquidity and margin concerns despite stronger revenue guidance.
Investor sentiment improved on May 19, when CFO Paul Middleton <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45505518/plug-power-stock-gains-after-cfo-share-purchase">disclosed</a> a personal purchase of 350,000 Plug shares, signaling internal confidence. CEO Andy Marsh also recently committed to taking 50% of his 2025 compensation in company stock, reinforcing shareholder alignment.
Despite challenges, Plug Power continues expanding hydrogen production and core operations as it eyes profitability by 2025.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PLUG Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Plug Power&#8217;s case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PLUG has a 52-week high of $3.55 and a 52-week low of $0.69.

Plug Power Says GenEco Electrolyzers Go Live At The Green Box In Netherlands Showcasing Real-World Performance For European Customers

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) shares saw a modest gain late Monday, trading up 2.1% to 79 cents, after initially surging as much as 8.5% earlier in the session. The uptick follows an announcement that CFO Paul Middleton purchased 350,000 shares of the company&#8217;s common stock for approximately $250,000 on May 16.
What To Know: In a Monday morning <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45491579/plug-power-cfo-paul-middleton-underscores-confidence-in-financial-strength-and-strategic-growth-wi">press release</a>, Middleton stated his confidence in Plug Power&#8217;s long-term vision and financial strength. This move comes on the heels of the company&#8217;s first-quarter 2025 earnings report, which showed revenue of $133.7 million.
Plug Power last week reported first-quarter 2025 revenue of $133.67 million, surpassing analyst estimates and marking an 11% year-over-year increase driven by strong electrolyzer sales.

However, the company posted a wider-than-expected net loss of 21 cents per share, leading analysts to remain cautious despite positive second-quarter revenue guidance. 
Notably, net cash used in operating and investing activities significantly decreased to $152.1 million, a substantial improvement from $288.3 million in the first quarter of 2024.
Plug Power has also expanded its hydrogen production capacity to 40 tons per day across three operational plants, while seeing growth in its electrolyzer and fuel cell businesses. 
What Else: Plug Power on Monday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45491579/plug-power-cfo-paul-middleton-underscores-confidence-in-financial-strength-and-strategic-growth-wi">said</a> the company&#8217;s commitment to aligning executive incentives with shareholder interests was also highlighted by CEO Andy Marsh&#8217;s decision to take 50% of his 2025 compensation in Plug Power stock.
Peer clean energy manufacturing company FuelCell Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) also saw gains Monday, jumping 18.45% to $4.88 on Monday, despite no specific company news driving the rally. 
Notably, FuelCell has a high short interest, with about 23.9% of its float currently sold short, which could contribute to volatile price swings if short sellers are forced to cover their positions.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PLUG Stock</h2>
By now, you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Plug Power, be it to purchase shares or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of Plug Power, which had been trading at 78 cents, $100 would buy you 128.21 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading — either way, it allows you to profit from the share price decline.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PLUG has a 52-week high of $3.55 and a 52-week low of 69 cents.

Plug Power CFO Paul Middleton Buys 350K Shares Of Stock At An Average Price Of $0.7154 Per Share, Or For ~$250,000 In Open Market Purchase

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) shares rose 3.6% to 72 cents on Friday, clawing back some ground after a sharp selloff earlier in the week. The stock remains down 21% since Monday's session following a mixed first-quarter earnings report that highlighted growth potential but underscored ongoing financial challenges.
What To Know: The company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45387898/plug-power-stock-is-tumbling-tuesday-whats-going-on">first-quarter revenue</a> of $133.67 million, exceeding analyst estimates of $132.16 million and marking an 11% year-over-year increase. 
Growth was fueled by a 575% surge in GenEco electrolyzer sales and continued momentum in material handling and cryogenic platform deployments. 
However, a wider-than-expected net loss of 21 cents per share, compared to a forecasted 19-cent loss, weighed on investor sentiment.

Management highlighted progress in scaling hydrogen production and improving capital efficiency through tax credit transfers and project equity financing.
Despite guiding second-quarter revenue above expectations at $140 million to $180 million, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45417895/jp-morgan-signals-caution-on-plug-powers-near-term-challenges-withdraws-price-forecast">analysts remain cautious</a>.

Plug Power Stock Hits A New 52-Week Low: What's Going On?

JP Morgan analyst Bill Peterson reiterated a Neutral rating on Plug Power, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) but <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLUG/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">has withdrawn the price forecast</a>.
On May 12, 2025, the company reported first-quarter revenue of $133.67 million, beating analyst&nbsp;estimates of $132.16 million and a loss of 21 cents per share, missing analyst estimates for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45361043/plug-power-q1-earnings-revenue-beats-estimates-driven-by-575-growth-in-electrolyzer-sales-eps-falls-short-company-highlights-real-progress-toward-profitability" rel="noreferrer noopener">a loss of 19 cents per share</a>.
Plug Power guided for second-quarter revenue in the range of $140 million to $180 million, versus estimates of $132.16 million, signaling <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45387898/plug-power-stock-is-tumbling-tuesday-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">confidence in continued demand growth</a>.

The analyst adjusted its second-quarter revenue estimates towards the lower end of the company&#8217;s guidance range at $150 million (down from $156 million prior).
Peterson has also slightly reduced the electrolyzer growth projections for the year, anticipating potential deal delays into 2026.
Consequently, the analyst lowered the full-year revenue estimate to $729 million (from $756 million previously).
The analyst also factored in Plug Power&#8217;s need to raise an additional $100 million to $200 million to bridge the funding gap required for the initial drawdown of its Department of Energy (DOE) loan, which may occur later this year or in early 2026.
Overall, the analyst says that Plug Power has significant potential for future growth through expansion into new markets, geographies, and the green hydrogen sector.
However, the company currently faces near-term challenges related to liquidity, margin improvement, and the availability of hydrogen, which is impacting its current outlook.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Global X Hydrogen ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYDR#NASDAQ">HYDR</a>).
Price Action: PLUG shares are down 3.91% at $0.78 at the last check on Wednesday.

What 14 Analyst Ratings Have To Say About Plug Power

Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) shares are trading lower Wednesday after the company reported first-quarter results that showed revenue growth, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45361043/plug-power-q1-earnings-revenue-beats-estimates-driven-by-575-growth-in-electrolyzer-sales-eps-falls-short-company-highlights-real-progress-toward-profitability">but a wider-than-expected loss</a>.
What To Know: The move comes despite a beat on the top line, as investors focused on ongoing profitability challenges and cautious sentiment around the company's path forward.
For the first quarter, Plug reported revenue of $133.67 million, slightly ahead of analyst expectations of $132.16 million and up from $120.26 million in the same quarter last year. The company credited the revenue growth to strong momentum in its electrolyzer segment, where GenEco electrolyzer sales surged 575% year-over-year. Plug also cited continued demand in material handling and growth in cryogenic platform deployments.
Despite the revenue beat, the company posted a net loss of 21 cents per share, missing analyst estimates for a 19-cent loss. Plug noted progress in managing its cash flow, with net cash used in operations and investing dropping to $152.1 million, compared to $288.3 million in the prior year's quarter. The company ended the period with $295.8 million in unrestricted cash.
Management emphasized a narrowed focus for 2025, stating it will concentrate on material handling, electrolyzers and hydrogen supply, areas where Plug believes it holds competitive advantages. CEO Andy Marsh said the company is working to scale its hydrogen ecosystem and drive adoption of its GenEco platform globally. He also highlighted new production capacity coming online in Louisiana and efforts to strengthen capital efficiency through financing initiatives such as tax credit transfers and project equity structures.
Plug Power guided for second-quarter revenue in the range of $140 million to $180 million, versus estimates of $132.16 million, signaling confidence in continued demand growth. 
Following the print, Canaccord Genuity analyst George Gianarikas maintained a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">Hold rating</a> and lowered the price target from $1.25 to $1, which may be adding pressure to shares on Tuesday.
PLUG Price Action: Plug Power shares were down 9.41%, trading at approximately 82 cents at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Earnings

Plug Power Stock Is Tumbling Tuesday: What's Going On?

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) Monday reported its first-quarter results.
With U.S. policy for green energy posing challenges, the company is likely to shift its focus to international opportunities, according to JPMorgan.
The Plug Power Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5aabc09cb023000001cb8b57/bill-peterson">Analyst Bill Peterson</a> maintained a Neutral rating and price target of 96 cents.
The Plug Power Thesis: The company reported its quarterly revenue at $134 million, in-line with its pre-announcement, and reiterated its second-quarter revenue guidance of $140 million-180 million, Peterson said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
The wide range in Plug Power's revenue guidance was due to "execution and timing on its ~$200M electrolyzer backlog," he added.
The U.S. government's House Ways and Means Committee presented a proposal to eliminate the 45V tax credit for clean hydrogen facilities starting construction after 2025, the analyst stated.
"The 45V tax credit update is likely mixed, given investor concerns around full repeal and long-term negative for green hydrogen projects in the U.S. offset by the likelihood for Plug Power to uniquely benefit from GA/TX projects," he further wrote.
New customers in Europe could help Plug Power achieve its target of 10%-20% year-on-year growth this year, Peterson said.
The company is also "executing well" on cost reduction and its cash burn could ease further over the coming quarters, he added.
PLUG Price Action: Shares of Plug Power had declined by 9.2% to $0.82 at the time of publication on Tuesday.

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) reported financial results for the first quarter after the market close on Monday. Here&#8217;s a rundown <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45358934/plug-reports-first-quarter-2025-financial-results">of the report</a>.
Q1 Earnings: Plug Power reported first-quarter revenue of $133.67 million, beating analyst&nbsp;<a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/plug/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimates</a>&nbsp;of $132.16 million. Total revenue was up from $120.26 million in the prior year&#8217;s quarter. 
The company reported a first-quarter loss of 21 cents per share, missing analyst estimates for a loss of 19 cents per share, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Plug said its results were driven by growing electrolyzer deliveries, continued demand in material handling and ongoing deployments in the company&#8217;s cryogenic platform. The company noted that GenEco electrolyzer sales increased&nbsp;575%&nbsp;on a year-over-year basis. 
Net cash used in operations and investing activities declined to $152.1 million in the quarter, down from $288.3 million in the first quarter of 2024. Plug ended the quarter with approximately $295.8 million&nbsp;in unrestricted cash.
&#8220;In 2025, we are focused on three core areas: material handling, electrolyzers and hydrogen supply. These are the businesses where Plug holds competitive advantages — and where we believe we can deliver the most meaningful impact for our customers and investors,&#8221; the company said in the earnings release.
Guidance:&nbsp;Plug Power expects second-quarter revenue to be in the range of $140 million to $180 million versus <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a> estimates of $132.16 million. 
Plug said it plans to focus on driving continued global adoption of its GenEco electrolyzer platform in 2025, while advancing financing initiatives such as investment tax credit transfers and project equity alignment to support long-term capital efficiency.
&#8220;With new capacity online in Louisiana, accelerating adoption of our GenEco electrolyzers, and improved cash flow discipline, Plug is executing with focus and urgency. We&#8217;re delivering real progress toward profitability and scaling our hydrogen ecosystem to meet growing global demand for clean energy,&#8221; said&nbsp;Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug Power.
Plug reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45038400/plug-power-rallies-as-new-financing-cost-cuts-boost-confidence-in-turnaround-plan">preliminary results</a> for the first quarter at the end of April, which may help explain some of Monday&#8217;s muted reaction. 
Plug&#8217;s management team will hold a conference call at 4:30 p.m. ET to further discuss the quarter with investors and analysts.
PLUG Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/PLUG">Plug Power shares</a> were down 3.73% after-hours, trading at 87 cents at the time of publication Monday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
