On September 29, FuelCell rose 8.43% in regular trading, trading at $17.5 per share, with turnover of approximately $22.6 million. The rally was primarily driven by a wave of investment bank coverage initiations and growing optimism around data center power supply opportunities.
On the news front, Barclays recently initiated coverage on FuelCell with an Equalweight rating and a $20 price target, while Citigroup initiated at Neutral with a $19 target. Earlier, UBS upgraded the stock to Buy from Neutral, raising its price target to $27 from $22, citing meaningful sales upside from the Fit Energy USA agreement and a Siemens collaboration on distributed fuel cell power generation. The current analyst consensus rating stands at Overweight, with a mean target price of $20.78, implying roughly 19% upside from current levels.
Despite a Q3 fiscal earnings miss — with adjusted EPS of -$0.64 versus the -$0.41 estimate and revenue of $33.0 million versus the $38.8 million estimate — the company has secured its first data center power supply contract and accumulated a $1.3 billion order backlog, signaling a strategic pivot toward capacity expansion and positioning in the medium-scale distributed energy market.
