  • Noteworthy fact: Joint ventures in North America (Hidrogenii) and Europe (AccionaPlug) accelerating hydrogen infrastructure; supply chain and labor challenges impacting costs and operational efficiency

Management Discussion & Analysis

  • Revenue $709.9M in 2025, up 13% YoY from $628.8M in 2024, driven by services (+81.1%) and power purchase agreements (+38.2%)

  • Geopolitical/macroeconomic risk: inflationary pressures and higher interest rates increasing costs of raw materials, labor, and transportation, squeezing margins
  • Operational/supply chain risk: reliance on limited suppliers for platinum, titanium, and iridium; shortages caused volume constraints and delayed deployments
  • Competitive risk: competition from established energy firms and alternative technologies such as advanced batteries and non-hydrogen power solutions
  • Financial risk: customer concentration risk with a few large customers whose order reductions or financial distress could materially affect revenue and cash flow
