Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

**1.**Nature of Operations

Plug Power Inc. (the “Company,” “Plug,” “we” or “our”) is facilitating the paradigm shift to an increasingly electrified world by innovating cutting-edge hydrogen and fuel cell solutions. While we continue to develop commercially viable hydrogen and fuel cell product solutions, we have expanded our offerings to support a variety of commercial operations that can be powered with clean hydrogen. We provide electrolyzers that allow customers — such as refineries, producers of chemicals, steel, fertilizer and commercial refueling stations — to generate hydrogen on-site. We are focusing our efforts on (a) industrial mobility applications, including electric forklifts and electric industrial vehicles, at multi-shift high volume manufacturing and high throughput distribution sites where we believe our products and services provide a unique combination of productivity, flexibility, and environmental benefits; and (b) production of hydrogen. Plug expects to support these products and customers with an ecosystem of vertically integrated products that produce, transport, store and handle, dispense, and use hydrogen for mobility and power applications.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has continued to experience negative cash flows from operations and net losses. The Company incurred net losses of approximately $190.1 million and $228.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company incurred net losses of approximately $436.1 million and $425.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s working capital was $652.5 million, which included unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $161.9 million and current restricted cash of $155.5 million, and the Company had an accumulated deficit of $8.7 billion.

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity have historically included cash on hand, proceeds from equity and debt financings, and operating cash flows. The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to strengthen its balance sheet and enhance financial flexibility. The future use of our available liquidity will be based upon the ongoing review of the funding needs of our businesses, the optimal allocation of our resources, and the timing of cash flow generation. To the extent that we desire to access alternative sources of capital, market conditions could adversely impact our ability to do so at that time and at terms favorable to the Company.

The Company has an “at-the-market” equity offering program with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”) and Yorkville Securities, LLC (“Yorkville”) pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, offer and sell through or to B. Riley, as sales agent or principal, shares of the Company’s common stock, having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $1.0 billion under a sales agreement. The “at-the-market” equity offering program will terminate upon the earliest of (a) August 15, 2027, with respect to principal and agency transactions, (b) the sale of all shares of common stock under the program or (c) termination of the sales agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company soldno shares of common stock pursuant to the “at-the-market” equity offering program. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $944.1 million of aggregate gross sales price of shares available to be sold under the “at-the-market” equity offering program.

The Company has also entered into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (the “SEPA”) with Yorkville, pursuant to which the Company has the right, at its option, to sell to Yorkville up to $1.0 billion in the aggregate gross sales price of its common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth therein. The Company has the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at its sole discretion to direct Yorkville to purchase directly from the Company up to $10.0 million in the aggregate gross sales price of its common stock on any trading day. The SEPA expires on February 10, 2027. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company soldno shares of common stock pursuant to the SEPA.

Subsequent to June 30, 2026, on August 7, 2026, the Company received $40.0 million in connection with the closing of the sale of high-voltage electrical infrastructure assets located at the Company's Graham, Texas project to Stream U.S. Data Centers, LLC, as further described in Note 20, "Subsequent Events." The Company expects these proceeds to provide additional near-term liquidity as it continues to execute on its strategic infrastructure optimization initiative.

The Company believes that its working capital, cash position and restricted cash to be released over the next 12 months, and amortization requirements of the Company’s finance obligations, together with other key assumptions, support the Company’s conclusion that it has sufficient capital to fund its ongoing operations for a period of at least 12 months subsequent to the issuance of the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Key assumptions are based on factors such as forecasted sales and costs, the Company’s right to direct B. Riley and Yorkville to purchase shares from the Company under the “at-the-market” equity offering program, and the Company’s right to direct Yorkville to purchase shares from the Company under the SEPA.

**2.**Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, we include our share of the results of our joint venture with Acciona Generación Renovable, S.A. in Spain, named AccionaPlug S.L., our investment in Clean H2 Infra Fund and our former joint venture with SK Innovation Co., Ltd, successor in interest to SK E&S Co., Ltd. in South Korea, named SK Plug Hyverse (prior period only), using the equity method based on our economic ownership interest and our ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial decisions of AccionaPlug S.L., Clean H2 Infra Fund and SK Plug Hyverse. Additionally, we consolidated the results of Hidrogenii, LLC (“Hidrogenii”), our joint venture with Niloco Hydrogen Holdings LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Olin Corporation (“Olin”).

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Form 10-K”).

The information presented in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the Company’s 2025 audited consolidated financial statements.

Impairment

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded impairment charges primarily due to the strategic exit of material handling investments at customer sites impacting equipment related to power purchase agreements and fuel delivered to customers, net of $11.7 million and $12.6 million to the impairment financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations, respectively. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded impairment charges of $2.5 million and $5.2 million related to the Company’s property, plant and equipment, net to the impairment financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations, respectively, primarily due to assets that are no longer in service. Furthermore, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $5.2 million related to the Company’s right of use assets related to finance leases, net to the impairment financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations, primarily due to changes in lease terms. Finally, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded impairment charges of

$0 and $0.2 million related to a prepaid expense to the impairment financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations, respectively.

Recoveries of Previously-Impaired Contract Assets, Property, Plant and Equipment and Other Assets

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized recoveries on previously-impaired contract assets, property, plant and equipment and other assets totaling $39.7 million. As disclosed in Note 17, “Commitments and Contingencies,” the Company recognized a recovery of $37.0 million associated with the resolution of a contract dispute on a previously-impaired contract asset. In addition, the Company recognized a recovery of $2.2 million associated with previously-impaired property, plant and equipment and a recovery of $0.5 million associated with an asset that was recorded within other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded such recoveries of $39.7 million within selling, general, and administrative expenses in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. This classification aligns with the presentation of the Company’s historical impairment charges, which were also recorded within the Company's operating expenses.

6. Fair Value Measurements

The Company records the fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820,Fair Value Measurement(“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the price received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity.

In addition to defining fair value, ASC 820 expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels, which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

These levels are:

●Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
●Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
●Level 3 — unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability at fair value.

Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include equity method investments that have not been remeasured or impaired in the current period, such as our investments in AccionaPlug S.L. and Clean H2 Infra Fund.

The following table summarizes the carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis that have unobservable inputs and are therefore categorized as Level 3 are related to the $7.75 Warrants,6.75% Convertible Senior Notes (each, as defined below) and contingent consideration, all of which are described below.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

$7.75* Warrants*

The fair value of the$7.75 Warrants as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was comprised of a single financial liability under ASC 825,Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”), with changes in fair value recorded in change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company estimated and recorded the fair value of the$7.75 Warrants as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 based on a Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The valuations utilized significant Level 3 unobservable inputs, including volatility. Other significant assumptions include risk-free rate, exercise price, the Company’s common stock price and maturity date. Significant judgment is required in selecting the significant inputs and assumptions. Actual assumptions may differ from our current estimates and such differences could materially impact the fair value of the$7.75 Warrants.

Refer to Note 7, “Warrant Liabilities,” for the significant assumptions utilized in the fair value of the$7.75 Warrants as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, as well as the change in the carrying amount of the$7.75 Warrants during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

6.75%* Convertible Senior Notes*

The fair value of the 6.75% Convertible Senior Notes as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was comprised of a single financial liability in which the Company elected the fair value option under ASC 825, with changes in fair value recorded in change in fair value of convertible debt instruments in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company elected the fair value option due to its multiple conversion features required to be presented at fair value. The Company has also elected to present interest expense separately from the change in fair value of convertible debt instruments measured at fair value through earnings. Total changes in the fair value of the liability that resulted from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk are separately recorded in other comprehensive income. There was no change in the instrument-specific credit risk during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company estimated and recorded the fair value of the 6.75% Convertible Notes utilizing Level 1 inputs based on recent trading activity compared to a Lattice Model which utilized significant Level 3 unobservable inputs, including volatility and calibrated yield, as of March 31, 2026. As such, the 6.75%

Convertible Senior Notes were transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 during the three months ended June 30, 2026 due to the resumption of sufficient observable trading activity for the 6.75% Convertible Notes.

Refer to Note 8, “Convertible Senior Notes,” for the change in the carrying amount of the 6.75% Convertible Senior Notes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Contingent consideration

The fair value of contingent consideration as of June 30, 2026 was related to the Joule Processing LLC (“Joule”) acquisition in 2022 and the fair value of contingent consideration as of December 31, 2025 was related to the Joule acquisition in 2022 and the Frames Holding B.V. (“Frames”) acquisition in 2021.

Inthe unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, contingent consideration was recorded in the contingent consideration, loss accrual for service contracts, and other current liabilities and contingent consideration, loss accrual for service contracts, and other liabilities financial statement line items and was comprised of the following unobservable inputs as of June 30, 2026:

7. Warrant Liabilities

On March 20, 2025, the Company sold 46,500,000 shares of its common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase 138,930,464 shares of its common stock and warrants (the “Common Warrants”) to purchase 185,430,464 shares of its common stock in a registered direct offering pursuant to an underwriting agreement with several underwriters.

On October 8, 2025, the Company entered into a warrant exercise inducement agreement with the holder of the Common Warrants, whereby in consideration for exercising the 185,430,464 outstanding Common Warrants at the exercise price as set forth in the Common Warrants of $2.00 per share, the Company agreed to provide new Common Warrants to the holder to purchase up to 185,430,464 shares of the Company’s common stock at $7.75 per share (the

“$7.75 Warrants”). In addition, under the warrant exercise inducement agreement, the holder was permitted to receive, upon exercise, in lieu of 154,430,464 common shares, new pre-funded warrants to purchase 154,430,464 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.0001 per share.

The $7.75 Warrants contain a provision pursuant to which, upon a Change of Control (as defined in the $7.75 Warrants), the holder may elect to require the Company (or the successor entity) to purchase the warrant for cash equal to its Black-Scholes value (a “Change of Control Cash Election”). The Company has classified the $7.75 Warrants as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets because the Change of Control Cash Election represents a conditional obligation that could require the Company to settle the warrants in cash upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, which precludes equity classification under ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The $7.75 Warrants became exercisable on February 28, 2026 and expire on March 20, 2028.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the $7.75 Warrants were valued at $136.3 million and $52.3 million, respectively, using the following Black-Scholes assumptions:

Service Stock Options Awards

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company granted 12,841,573 service stock option awards with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $1.94 per share and at a weighted average exercise price of $2.59. In addition,701,254 service stock option awards were exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $2.33. Finally,2,138,371 service stock option awards were forfeited at a weighted average exercise price of $6.75. The total fair value of the service stock option awards that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was approximately $2.9 million and $5.6 million, respectively.

The Company estimates the fair value of its service stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model, and the resulting fair value is recorded as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the option vesting period. Key inputs and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the service stock options include the grant price of the award, the expected

option term, volatility of the Company’s stock, and an appropriate risk-free rate. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive equity awards, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by the Company. The assumptions made for purposes of estimating fair value under the Black-Scholes model for the 12,841,573 service stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were as follows:

​​​
Expected term of options (years)​5.00
Risk free interest rate​3.48% - 4.15%
Volatility​90.07% - 101.87%

Compensation cost associated with market condition stock option awards represented approximately $0.9 million and $1.7 million of the total share-based payment expense recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Compensation costs associated with these awards are recognized as the requisite service period is rendered, regardless of when, if ever, the market condition is satisfied. As of June 30, 2026, there was approximately $0.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to market condition stock option awards to be recognized over the weighted average remaining period of 0.82 years.

As of June 30, 2026, there wereno unvested market condition stock option awards for which the employee requisite service period had not been rendered but were expected to vest.

13. Restructuring

In January 2026, the Company initiated reductions to its workforce (the “2026 Restructuring Plan”). We began executing the 2026 Restructuring Plan in January 2026 and it was effectively completed during the second quarter of 2026.

In March 2025, the Company announced initiatives to reduce its workforce, realign its manufacturing footprint and streamline its organization to enhance operational efficiency and improve overall liquidity (the “2025 Restructuring Plan”). We began executing the 2025 Restructuring Plan in March 2025 and it was effectively completed during the fourth quarter of 2025.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.2 million and$2.9 million in restructuring costs, respectively, which were recorded in the restructuring financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $1.6 million and $20.1 million in restructuring costs, respectively, which were recorded in the restructuring financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table reflects the category of restructuring charges incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):

​​​​​​​​​​​​
​ · Three months ended June 30, · ​ · Six months ended June 30,
​ · 2026 · ​ ​ ​ · 2025 · ​ ​ ​ · 2026 · ​ ​ ​ · 2025
Employee severance and benefit arrangements$184​$2,359​$1,609​$18,246
Legal and professional fees​—​​44​​—​​215
Lease and contract termination costs​—​​561​​—​​1,657
Total restructuring charges$184​$2,964​$1,609​$20,118

The accrued restructuring balances as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were recorded in the accrued expenses financial statement line item in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accrued restructuring activities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were as follows (in thousands):

​​​
Accrued balance as of December 31, 2025$978
Accruals and adjustments​1,425
Cash payments​(1,337)
Accrued balance as of March 31, 2026$1,066
Accruals and adjustments​184
Cash payments​(989)
Accrued balance as of June 30, 2026$261

As of June 30, 2026, total accrued expenses related to restructuring activities were comprised of $0.3 million of employee severance and benefit arrangements.

14. Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $207 thousand and $12 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recorded income tax expense of $248 thousand and $12 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to current tax incurred in foreign jurisdictions. The Company has not changed its overall conclusion with respect to the need for a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in the United States, which remain fully reserved. Except for a few service entities mainly in Europe, all deferred tax assets are offset by a full valuation allowance because it is more likely than not that the tax benefits of the net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s Netherlands subsidiary maintains a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets that will not be realized.

15. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common stock are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Since the Company is in a net loss position, all common stock equivalents would be considered anti-dilutive and are therefore not included in the determination of diluted earnings per share. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per share are the same.

As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had potentially dilutive securities outstanding, consisting of stock options, restricted stock units, warrants and other equity instruments, representing shares of common stock totaling 440,501,973 and 340,788,077, respectively, on an as-converted basis. Since the Company is in a net loss position for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive securities are considered anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260,Earnings Per Share.

16. Segment Reporting

Our organization is managed from a sales perspective based on “go-to-market” sales channels, emphasizing shared learning across end-user applications and common supplier/vendor relationships. These sales channels are structured to serve a range of customers for our products and services. As a result of this structure, we concluded that we haveone operating and reportable segment – the design, development and sale of hydrogen products and solutions that help customers meet their business goals while decarbonizing their operations. Our chief executive officer was identified as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). All significant operating decisions made by management are based upon analysis of the Company on a total company basis, including assessments related to our incentive compensation plans. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

The information regularly provided to the CODM used to assess performance and allocate resources is the same as the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The measure of segment profit or loss used by the CODM in assessing

segment performance and how to allocate resources is consolidated net loss which is presented in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. The CODM uses net loss in strategic planning, for example, decision making of whether to allocate resources towards strengthening sales channels, investing in research and development, focusing on cost-down initiatives, and/or analyzing Company overhead in respect to specific products and service lines. Net loss is also used to monitor budget versus actual results and is considered in assessments related to company-wide incentive compensation. The significant segment expenses included within the segment measure of profit or loss are total costs of revenue, research and development expense, selling, general and administrative expense, and impairment expense. Other segment items, net are comprised of restructuring, change in fair value of contingent consideration, interest income, interest expense, other (expense)/income, net, (loss)/gain on extinguishment of convertible debt instruments and finance obligations, change in fair value of convertible debt instruments, change in fair value of debt, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, loss on equity method investments, income tax expense and net loss attributable to non-controlling interest, which are presented in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. The CODM is not regularly provided a measure of segment assets.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

Restricted Cash

In connection with certain of the noted sale/leaseback agreements, cash of $279.2 million and $352.3 million was required to be restricted as security as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, which will be released over the lease term. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company also had bank guarantees backed by security deposits totaling $150.4 million and $193.1 million, respectively, of which $117.2 million and $159.6 million are security for the noted sale/leaseback agreements, respectively, and $33.2 million and $33.5 million are customs-related letters of credit and bank guarantees, respectively.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $62.0 million held in escrow related to the potential future power usage of the Texas hydrogen production plant and the Company had $18.0 million held in escrow related to the existing power supply for the Georgia hydrogen production plant.

Tariff Refunds

In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize the President of the United States to impose tariffs, thereby invalidating certain tariffs previously imposed under that Act. Following the ruling, U.S. Customs and Border Protection implemented a refund process for tariffs paid under the invalidated authority. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a reduction to inventory of $14.7 million related to refunds of tariffs previously paid on imported goods of which the Company received cash of $10.9 million and recognized a receivable of $3.8 million, which was recorded in prepaid expenses, tax credits, and other current assets in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, which we subsequently received in July 2026.

Litigation

Legal matters are handled in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of any such matters, regardless of the merits, is inherently uncertain; therefore, assessing the likelihood of loss and any estimated damages is difficult and subject to considerable judgment. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. While we are not in a position to accurately predict the outcome of any legal or other proceedings, where there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred, GAAP requires us to disclose an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss, if material, or make a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Except for below, a reasonably possible loss or range of loss associated with any individual legal proceeding cannot be currently estimated.

Securities Litigation and Related Stockholder Derivative Litigation

2023 Securities Action and Related Derivative Litigation

A consolidated action is pending in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware asserting claims under the federal securities laws against the Company and certain of its senior officers on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of the Company’s securities, styledIn re Plug Power, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 1:23-cv-04090576-JLHMN (the “2023 Securities Action”). The plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on September 28, 2023, in which they assert claims under the federal securities laws against the Company and four of its former and current senior officers, Mr. Marsh, Mr. Middleton, Sanjay Shrestha, and former officer David Mindnich, on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of the Company’s common stock between January 19, 2022 and March 1, 2023. The complaint alleges that the defendants made “materially false and/or misleading statements” about the Company’s business and operations, including the Company’s revenue goals for 2022, its ability to effectively manage its supply chain and product manufacturing, and its progress in construction of new hydrogen production capacity. On February 4, 2025, the Court issued an opinion and order dismissing the consolidated complaint, with leave to replead. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on February 25, 2025, in which they no longer name Mr. Mindnich. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on April 30, 2025. On April 20, 2026, the court issued an opinion and order granting in part and denying in part defendants’ motion to dismiss. Defendants filed an answer to the second amended complaint on May 21, 2026. The court has set a trial date for August 2028.

Plug Power, Inc. et al., No. 1:24-cv-00406-MAD-DJS (N.D.N.Y.) (the "Adote Action").

Plug Power Inc., Index No. 655610/2024 was filed in the New York State Supreme Court, New York County, asserting a claim for breach of contract associated with a purchase order for solar panels manufactured by First Solar to be purchased by the Company. The complaint seeks monetary relief along with pre-judgment interest. On December 22, 2025, First Solar moved for summary judgment. Oral argument on the motion occurred on May 1, 2026, and the parties are awaiting a decision. A pre-trial conference is scheduled for September 9, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Company recorded an accrual related to ongoing litigation costs.

Contract Dispute Resolution

During the second quarter of 2026, the Company resolved a contract dispute with a customer. Under the terms of the agreement, the customer agreed to provide total consideration of $50.0 million entirely in cash. Upon fulfillment of the agreement and receipt of the consideration on June 6, 2026, in accordance with ASC 450,Contingencies (“ASC 450”), the Company derecognized the remaining $13.0 million contract asset balance and recognized a net gain of $37.0 million. The $37.0 million gain was recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. This classification aligns with the presentation of the Company’s historical impairment charges on the contract asset, which were also recorded within the Company's operating expenses. See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for further information.

Guarantee

On February 24, 2026, our joint venture, AccionaPlug S.L., entered into a subsidy agreement with the European Hydrogen Bank, which is managed by Instituto para la Diversificación y Ahorro de la Energía (“IDAE”), a Spanish governing body, to subsidize a renewable hydrogen production project in Spain. In connection with the subsidy agreement, AccionaPlug S.L. is required to meet certain performance targets. The Company has provided a guarantee of €7.5 million which can be called by IDAE if the joint venture fails to meet its performance targets under the subsidy agreement. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company collateralized a portion of the guarantee with €3.7 million of restricted cash. As of June 30, 2026, no payments related to this guarantee have been made by the Company, and the Company didnot record a liability for this guarantee as the likelihood of the guarantee being called upon is remote.

Unconditional Purchase Obligations

The Company has entered into certain off–balance sheet commitments that require the future purchase of goods or services (“unconditional purchase obligations”). The Company’s unconditional purchase obligations primarily consist of supplier arrangements, take or pay contracts and service agreements. For certain vendors, the Company’s unconditional obligation to purchase a minimum quantity of raw materials at an agreed upon price is fixed and determinable; while certain other raw material costs will vary due to product forecasting and future economic conditions.

Future payments under non-cancellable unconditional purchase obligations with a remaining term in excess of one year as of June 30, 2026 were as follows (in thousands):

​​​
Remainder of 2026​19,142
2027​36,576
2028​39,555
2029​—
2030​—
2031 and thereafter​—
Total​95,273

During 2025, the Company finalized the renegotiation of a supplier arrangement that previously contained minimum purchase requirements. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had a remaining liability of $19.8 million and $27.2 million, respectively, which was recorded in contingent consideration, loss accrual for service contracts, and other current liabilities in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company made payments of $6.8 million to reduce the liability.

18. Government Tax Credits

Section 48 Investment Tax Credit for Qualified Fuel Cell Properties of Energy Storage Technologies

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company determined that it qualified for the Section 48 Investment Tax Credit (“ITC”) for Qualified Fuel Cell Properties of Energy Storage Technologies related to its hydrogen storage and liquefaction assets at its Louisiana hydrogen plant owned by Hidrogenii, the Company’s joint venture with Olin. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company executed an ITC sales agreement for its Louisiana hydrogen production plant. The Company received aggregate cash proceeds of $39.2 million in connection with the sale with related transaction fees of $3.1 million.

19. Variable Interest Entities

Hidrogenii

In 2022, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Plug Power LA JV, LLC, created Hidrogenii, LLC, our joint venture with Niloco Hydrogen Holdings LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Olin, to support reliability of supply and speed to market for hydrogen throughout North America and to set the foundation for broader collaboration between Plug and Olin. During the second quarter of 2025, Hidrogenii placed into service a 15-ton-per-day hydrogen plant in St. Gabriel, Louisiana. Hidrogenii is owned 50% by Plug Power LA JV, LLC and 50% by Niloco Hydrogen Holdings LLC.

The Company has determined Hidrogenii to be a VIE, and the Company is considered to be the VIE’s primary beneficiary as we determined we have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. On an ongoing basis, we are contractually obligated to certain operational funding. We consolidated the joint venture’s results within our single consolidated reportable segment. Hidrogenii has similar risks to those described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K.

As disclosed above in Note 18, “Government Tax Credits,” during the second quarter of 2026 the Company executed an ITC sales agreement for its Louisiana hydrogen production plant and received net cash proceeds of $36.1 million. As a result, during the second quarter of 2026, the joint venture distributed $16.5 million to each of its two members, retaining the remaining $3.1 million of net proceeds, which was recognized as an additional capital contribution to the joint venture from its members.

The VIE’s assets can be used to settle only the VIE’s obligations and the creditors related to the VIE’s liabilities have no recourse against the general credit of the Company. The table below summarizes balances associated with Hidrogenii as reflected on our unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

​​​​​​​
​ · ​ · As of
​ · ​ ​ ​ · June 30, 2026 · ​ ​ ​ · December 31, 2025

As of June 30, 2026, the Company did not have any capital commitments to Hidrogenii.

20. Subsequent Events

Stream Sale for Limestone

As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 13, 2026, the Company and Plug Project Holding Co., LLC ("Holding Company") entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions, dated as of July 7, 2026 (the "Original Agreement"), with Stream U.S. Data Centers, LLC ("Stream") for the sale of the Company's Graham, Texas project, consisting of land and associated grid interconnection assets (the "Property").

On August 7, 2026, the Company, Holding Company, Plug Power Limestone, LLC ("Limestone" and, together with the Company and Holding Company, "Seller") and Stream entered into an amendment to the Original Agreement (the "First Amendment" and, together with the Original Agreement, the "Agreement"). Among other things, the First Amendment: (i) increased the aggregate deposit held by the title company toward the purchase of the land to $10.0 million, consisting of an incremental $9.5 million deposit in addition to the $0.5 million deposit previously funded under the Original Agreement (together, the "Land Consideration"); (ii) extended the outside date for closing of the sale of the land and remaining interconnection-related assets (the "Closing") to March 31, 2027, subject to extension in limited circumstances; and (iii) provided for a separate closing (the "HV Closing") of the sale to Stream of certain high-voltage electrical infrastructure located on the Property (the "HV Assets") in exchange for $40.0 million of consideration (the "HV Consideration").

The HV Closing occurred on August 7, 2026, at which time the Company received the $40.0 million HV Consideration. The HV Consideration is non-refundable to Stream, subject to Stream's remedies under the Agreement in the event of a breach of Seller's representations and warranties regarding the HV Assets. If the Closing occurs, the HV Consideration will be credited against the total purchase price for the Property; if the Closing does not occur for any reason, the Company will retain the HV Consideration.

The sale of the land and remaining interconnection-related assets has not yet closed and remains subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The $10.0 million aggregate Land Consideration remains held in escrow by the title company pending the Closing and is subject to release in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

Termination of DOE Loan Guarantee

On August 4, 2026, the Company received a notification letter from the U.S. Department of Energy (the “DOE”) exercising its right to terminate the Company’s Loan Guarantee Agreement with the DOE because the initial first advance had not occurred by the applicable longstop date. Termination is automatic and self-executing upon lapse of a ten business day notice period specified in the notice, without further action by the DOE. See Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
