Financing Availability for Data Centers
Current report
Obtaining financing for data center development has generally become more difficult. Hyperscalers have increasingly funded such data center investments through borrowing rather than cash reserves, and corporate bond issuances for such purposes have surged. Projections of AI-related debt issuances in 2026 alone have exceeded $500 billion, driven by the need for significant upfront capital expenditures that outpaces earnings growth, and which has raised market concerns about rising leverage and (in some cases) negative free cash flow, for uncertain returns in the event benefits from the AI investments are not realized. In addition to hyperscalers, other participants in the AI infrastructure buildout, including neoclouds, co-location service providers, and other tenants to data infrastructure being built, are also increasingly viewed as high credit risks, which adds to uncertainty and makes financing more expensive and difficult to obtain, particularly when interest rates are also rising. When our hyperscaler, neocloud, and co-location customers and their related projects using our products are viewed as high credit risks, the size of the AI sector may be adversely impacted, projects unable to obtain economical financing may be cancelled, margin pressure may increase as developers negotiate lower prices for our products to offset higher financing costs, and additional pressure may be placed upon us to support developer efforts to obtain required regulatory permits which adds time, complexity, and cost, all of which may have adverse impacts on our business, financial condition and operating results.

We Also Arrange Financing for Customers
Current report
We arrange financing for the use of our Energy Server for our customers through power purchase agreements, capacity or lease arrangements. Our ability to arrange such financing is adversely impacted when our customers and their projects are viewed as high credit risk. When coupled with factors such as increasing opposition to data center development and pauses and additional delays in the issuance of air and other permits, the costs and risks of arranging financing for projects deploying our Energy Servers are further exacerbated. For example, despite our superior criteria pollutant emission profile and lower CO 2 emissions than combustion alternatives, the process to obtain required air permits for larger installations is, at times, taking longer than expected. Construction, land use, and gas permits have also been delayed. These challenges may also impact our ability to receive revenue timely as we generally cannot sell our Energy Servers to a financier until permits are in hand. Regulatory uncertainty may also further affect our ability to arrange financing for projects because the economics of these financings depend on the monetization of available investment tax credits under the OBBBA. Any delays in the issuance of guidance related to such investment tax credits may cause financiers to further delay consummating financings for clean energy facilities using our products until greater clarity is received, and may put pressure on our margins or raise financing costs for our customers.
Current report
We are driven by the promise of our contribution to the transformation and decarbonization of energy and mobility sectors globally. Our advanced distributed energy platform delivers cost-effective, clean, reliable, and resilient electricity. Operating at high efficiency and without combustion, Bloom systems deliver lower emissions and improved air quality with minimal water use compared to conventional alternatives.

Previous wording
Global freight and logistics markets remained volatile during the first half of fiscal year 2026, with continued pressure on ocean, ground and specialized heavy-equipment transportation rates. While transportation availability improved relative to peak levels experienced in prior years, higher fuel prices, labor costs, and routing inefficiencies related to geopolitical conditions contributed to elevated logistics costs. In addition, on a selective basis we also incurred higher logistics costs in connection with expediting deliveries of materials and supplies by air carrier to manufacture, and deliver our Energy Server products to meet customer timelines.
Current wording
Volatility in the global freight and logistics markets continued in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 as geopolitical events in the Middle East pressured ocean, air, ground and specialized heavy-equipment transportation rates. Routing inefficiencies driven by geopolitical events decreased transportation availability somewhat compared to the prior quarter, but transportation availability generally remains improved compared to prior years. Higher fuel prices and labor costs have also elevated logistics costs. On a selective basis, we continue to incur higher logistics costs to expedite deliveries of materials and supplies by air carrier so that we can manufacture and deliver our Energy Server products to meet customer timelines.
Previous wording
Given the size, weight, and modular configuration of Bloom Energy Server systems and related balance‑of‑plant components, changes in freight pricing can meaningfully affect our cost of revenues and project-level margins, particularly for large multi-megawatt deployments and international shipments. We continue to pursue mitigation strategies including negotiating indexed freight arrangements where feasible, renegotiating air freight rates, optimizing factory-to-site routing, consolidating shipments, and increasing regional sourcing; however, there can be no assurance that such actions will fully offset future freight rate increases, especially in periods of elevated demand or fuel price volatility.

Since the discussion of our supply chain contained in Part 1, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations, section Other Factors Affecting our Performance in our 2025 Form 10-K, although throughout 2026 there has been a general worldwide shortage of electronic components, we have continued to not experience significant component shortages, electronic or otherwise to date. Approaches we have taken as we continue to scale our manufacturing include supplier diversification and qualifying multiple suppliers for single or limited source components, enhancing our predictive analytics capabilities, and employing flexible sourcing strategies. As we continue to scale our business, we have been pro-active in working with our suppliers to ensure continued adequacy of supply while also maintaining our quality standards. Such strategies have included entering into long-term contracts, non-cancelable purchase orders and, in select cases, take-or-pay contracts where demand for such items is competitive and where components are highly dependent upon underlying scarce commodity items. We do not currently anticipate experiencing supply chain shortages which would impact our 2026 production forecast; however, we cannot give assurances as to potential future developments or their related impacts.
Current wording
While there has generally been a worldwide shortage of electronic components, our supply of needed components, electronic or otherwise, has not been impacted to date. Approaches we have taken to manage our supply of electronic components despite current worldwide general shortages include supplier diversification, qualifying multiple suppliers for single or limited source components, enhancing our predictive analytics capabilities, and employing flexible sourcing strategies. As we continue to scale our business, we work proactively with our suppliers to ensure continued adequacy of supply while also maintaining our quality standards. Our strategies have included entering into long-term contracts and non-cancelable purchase orders. In select cases, where demand for items is competitive, components are highly dependent upon underlying scarce commodity items, or lead time is needed for a long-term order, we have also entered into take-or-pay or fixed volume commitment contracts. We do not currently anticipate experiencing supply chain shortages which would impact our 2026 production forecast; however, we cannot give assurances as to potential future developments or their related impacts. We enter into these arrangements to support anticipated production requirements, taking into consideration existing customer commitments, expected customer deployments and anticipated future demand. If actual demand, customer deployments or our production requirements are lower than anticipated, we may be required to purchase materials or make payments in excess of our then-current requirements. This could result in excess or obsolete inventory, inventory write-downs, increased working capital requirements and reduced operating cash flows.

On July 8, 2026, a report was published by a short seller containing allegations regarding, among other things, our supply chain, including the sourcing and sufficiency of certain raw materials used in our products. As stated in our Current Report on Form 8-K furnished on July 9, 2026, we rejected the report’s conclusions regarding our supply chain, and we believe we have sufficient supply of the relevant raw materials to meet our current fuel cell demand and backlog. Publications of this nature, whether or not accurate, have resulted in significant volatility in the trading price of our common stock, and we cannot predict whether similar publications may occur in the future or their potential impacts. We have incurred, and may continue to incur, costs in connection with evaluating and responding to the report, and any related inquiries or demands could result in additional costs and divert management’s attention. See Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

During the year ended December 31, 2025, pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), the U.S. government announced significant additional tariffs on products imported from various countries, including countries where we source materials used in our Energy Server products. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain tariffs imposed under the IEEPA were unlawful and required refunds of such tariffs collected, which refunds we are also separately pursuing. However, following the Supreme Court’s decision, the U.S. presidential administration invoked other laws to collect tariffs and announced new temporary ten percent tariffs on imports from all countries, in addition to any existing non-IEEPA tariffs. Following the expiration of such temporary tariffs, in late July 2026 the U.S. presidential administration imposed new tariffs of 10% to 12.5% targeting imports from approximately 60 economies which covers almost all U.S. imports. Certain materials which we require, such as imports of steel, aluminum, copper, and derivative metal products continue to be subject to their own separate tariff regime.

Previous wording
There remains uncertainty regarding the duration of existing and newly announced tariffs, potential changes or pauses to such tariffs, tariff levels, and whether additional tariffs or other retaliatory actions may be imposed, modified, or suspended. These and future changes in tariffs, trade policies, trade actions, or retaliatory trade measures in response, have resulted and may continue to result in additional costs and pricing pressures, supply chain disruptions, volatility in the demand for our Energy Server products, and increased economic or geopolitical risks, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations, materially or in ways that we cannot predict.
Current wording
Tariff levels, their duration, and the potential imposition, modification or suspension of existing or additional new tariffs or retaliatory actions remain uncertain.

Commodity input pricing remained an important factor affecting our cost structure during the first half of fiscal year 2026. Certain raw materials and components used in our fuel cell stacks, power electronics, structural assemblies, and balance‑of‑plant systems—including steel alloys, specialty metals, electronic components, natural gas‑linked inputs, and rare earth‑dependent materials experienced price fluctuations. While we do not generally purchase commodities directly at spot prices, supplier pricing may reflect changes in underlying commodity indices over time. Increases in commodity prices may not be immediately recoverable through customer pricing due to contractual arrangements, competitive dynamics, or fixed‑price project structures, creating potential margin pressure. We utilize supplier diversification, long‑term sourcing agreements, inventory planning, and selective contractual pass‑through mechanisms where available to mitigate commodity cost risks; however, sustained or rapid commodity price increases could adversely affect our results of operations.

Although headline inflation moderated compared to prior periods, inflationary pressures have continued to persist across several cost categories relevant to our business during the first half of fiscal year 2026, including certain electrical parts and components, labor, manufacturing and field installation services. Wage inflation in skilled manufacturing and technical field labor categories, coupled with higher costs for third‑party contractors, continued to exert upward pressure on our operating expenses and cost of revenues. In addition, increases in insurance, regulatory compliance, and professional services costs contributed to higher overhead compared to prior periods. General inflationary impacts on labor and services are passed on to us by our suppliers through increased prices for parts. We seek to manage inflationary impacts through productivity initiatives, automation, supplier negotiations, selective price adjustments, and ongoing cost‑reduction programs. However, the timing and extent of these mitigations may not fully align with the pace of cost increases, particularly in periods of rapid scale‑up or accelerated deployment schedules.

Since the discussion of the delivery and installation of our Energy Server systems contained in our 2025 Form 10-K under Part II, Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, section Delivery and Installation, we have sought to evolve Bloom’s approach to installation to a consult only model, particularly for large load sites where we request our customers to utilize one of our certified third party installers for the equipment installation and project construction work and we operate as consultants to such certified installers as to Bloom Energy server products. Through its operating history, Bloom has developed working relationships with established engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) companies. We recently instituted a certified third-party installation program where we train these established EPC companies on the installation of our Energy Server product and then provide certification based on their proven installation capabilities as to our Energy Server. Purchasers of our Energy Server product are then able to select their preferred third-party EPC provider from our certified installer list, and negotiate and enter into installation agreements directly with the EPC company. Bloom is available to provide consulting services for the installation of its Energy Server product. Our preferred installation partners undergo a rigorous qualification process prior to selection based upon criteria such as experience with Bloom’s product, other energy infrastructure installation experience, balance sheet, reputation, and safety record. Following selection, such EPC companies undergo extensive training on our Energy Server systems and its proper installation.

Following selection, such EPC companies undergo extensive training on our Energy Server systems and its proper installation. To facilitate the use of third-party installers, increase installation speed, reduce dependency on skilled field labor, and reduce installation costs, Bloom has incorporated traditional installation components and materials into the Energy Server that have previously been supplied by general contractors or built on-site. Examples include the use of a factory-built and tested fuel cell on a skid design, the development and use of the Power Connect spine for all external cabling, and locating the interconnects to the system at a centralized external interface panel with data and power connectors. Additional benefits of such improvements and standardization include reduction of installation risks and errors. Bloom continues to have responsibility for the commissioning of the Energy Server system following installation.

Opposition to data center development has been increasing. For example, in July 2026, the governor of New York state signed an executive order to create a moratorium on new hyperscale data centers that included temporarily pausing State environmental permits for up to one year in order to build a regulatory framework to address concerns which have been expressed by consumers and communities in the State related to matters such as utility rates and the environment. Prolonged and widespread opposition to data center development due to ratepayer impacts, environmental concerns, noise, and other expressed strains on local communities may have longer term adverse impacts on our business. In addition to potential direct impacts such as adversely affecting the size of this target market or causing project cancellations, additional indirect impacts may include (among other things) further increasing the sales and installation cycle, increasing the time, cost, expense, and complexity of obtaining required permits for the development, and reducing government support and incentives for such developments, any of which may also have adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Despite recent increasing opposition to data center development, demand for our Energy Server systems in connection with such developments has continued to be robust, particularly in light of our Energy Server’s near-zero criteria pollutants, low water usage and lower CO 2 emissions than the combustion generation it displaces on the margin. In addition, installation of our islanded systems serving the power demands of the data center helps to insulate the local community from adverse effects on utility rates. We believe the release of a future regulatory framework in New York state or other jurisdictions could provide further competitive advantages to our Energy Server systems by further limiting the ability to use other traditional alternatives for power. The benefits of such data center developments utilizing our Energy Server systems which bring jobs, infrastructure, and other economic benefits need to be balanced against the identified concerns.
Current wording

Similar moratoriums have since been introduced in many other states, and many local cities and municipalities have also introduced or adopted these or other measures which restrict, pause, or otherwise adversely impact data center development. Prolonged and widespread opposition to data center development due to ratepayer impacts, environmental concerns, noise, and other expressed strains on local communities may have longer-term adverse impacts on our business. In addition to potential direct impacts such as adversely affecting the size of this target market or causing project cancellations, additional indirect impacts may include (among other things) further increasing the sales and installation cycle, increasing the time, cost, expense, and complexity of obtaining required permits for the development, and reducing government support and incentives for such developments, any of which may also have adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Despite recent increasing opposition to data center development, demand for our Energy Server systems in connection with such developments has continued to be robust. However, recently, notwithstanding the environmental benefits of Bloom’s Energy Server compared to alternatives, even projects with our fuel cell systems have experienced increased scrutiny, data requests, and discretionary hearings which have resulted in permitting delays. These delays in turn impact project construction, financing and commencement, all of which may have adverse impacts on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Electricity revenue decreased by $2.9 million and $19.9 million, or 22.3% and 50.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was primarily due to lower straight-line electricity revenue resulting from repowering of certain Managed Services related sites. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was predominantly due to a one-time settlement of a customer contract after redeploying assets for our partner in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, as well as lower straight-line electricity revenue resulting from repowering of certain Managed Services related sites.
Current wording
Electricity revenue decreased by $0.5 million, or 5.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2026, and by $20.5 million, or 40.8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, in each case compared with the corresponding period in 2025. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2026, was primarily due to termination and repowering of certain Managed Services related sites. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was predominantly due to a one-time settlement of a customer contract after redeploying assets for our partner in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, as well as termination and repowering of certain Managed Services related sites.
Previous wording
Cost of product revenue increased by $395.2 million and $684.9 million, or 198.9% and 202.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. Product costs increased primarily due to higher sales volumes driven by increased demand for our power solutions, an increase in product warranty, and an increase in stock-based compensation. The increase was partially offset by (i) lower material, labor, and overhead costs resulting from ongoing manufacturing efficiency improvements and increased automation and (ii) the recognition of a $37.4 million recovery of previously paid import tariffs during the period.
Current wording
Cost of product revenue increased by $0.4 billion, or 167.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2026, and by $1.1 billion, or 187.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, in each case compared with the corresponding period in 2025. The increases were primarily attributable to higher product volume, an increase in product warranty, and an increase in stock-based compensation for manufacturing employees. The impact of higher volume was partially offset by lower material, labor, and overhead costs resulting from manufacturing efficiency improvements and increased automation, net of higher freight costs. In addition, the overall increase was partially offset by a $37.2 million recovery of previously paid import tariffs recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, and by inventory reserve and asset impairments totaling $21.8 million recorded in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 related to our Electrolyzer assets.
Previous wording
Cost of electricity revenue decreased by $0.9 million and $4.9 million, or 11.4% and 25.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was primarily due to the reduction in the number of installed units. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was mainly due to (i) redeploying assets for our partner to enable a one-time settlement of a customer contract in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, and (ii) the reduction in the number of installed units.
Current wording
Cost of electricity revenue increased by $1.5 million, or 25.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2026, and decreased by $3.4 million, or 13.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, in each case compared with the corresponding period in 2025. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2026, was primarily due to the increase in the number of installed units. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was mainly due to (i) redeploying assets for our partner to enable a one-time settlement of a customer contract in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, and (ii) the reduction in the number of installed units.
Previous wording
Product gross profit increased by $243.6 million and $395.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) increased product demand driven by a significant deployment for a large AI infrastructure customer and multiple projects executed through our joint venture with Brookfield; (ii) the recognition of a $37.4 million recovery of previously paid import tariffs; and (iii) lower material, labor, and overhead costs due to ongoing manufacturing process improvements and increased automation. The overall increase was partially offset by an increase in product warranty.
Current wording
Product gross profit increased by $272.1 million and $667.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, compared with the corresponding periods in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) increased product demand for our power solutions, including deployments for large data center customers; (ii) a $37.2 million recovery of previously paid import tariffs recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2026; (iii) inventory reserve and asset impairments totaling $21.8 million recorded in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 related to Electrolyzer assets, as compared to $3.1 million asset impairments in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026; and (iv) lower material, labor, and overhead costs due to ongoing manufacturing process improvements and increased automation. The overall increase was partially offset by an increase in product warranty.
Previous wording
Service gross profit increased by $7.8 million and $15.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to higher revenue from maintenance contracts associated with our fleet of Energy Server systems, which contributed $17.3 million and $26.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. The increase was partially offset by higher product performance guarantee costs of $3.0 million and $4.6 million for the same periods, reflecting the effects of fleet degradation.

Fremont, California and Delmarva, Delaware. These investments, which include the purchase of new equipment and tenant improvements, are part of our strategic plan to continually increase capacity to meet orders and customer delivery requirements. The magnitude and timing of these capital expenditures will depend on implementation milestones, supplier lead times, and customer demand. We intend to fund these capital expenditures from cash on hand as well as cash flow expected to be generated from operations. We may also evaluate and arrange equipment lease financing to fund these capital expenditures.
