BLDP Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Ballard Power Systems Inc. has demonstrated significant growth, with a 70% increase in their 12-month order book and a 41% rise in total backlog on a quarter-over-quarter basis, indicating strong demand for their fuel cell products. Management's strategic focus on reducing operating expenses by 30% in 2025, alongside initiatives to enhance gross margins and streamline manufacturing processes, suggests a solid foundation for improved financial performance. Furthermore, the company's dominant position in bus and rail applications, with 90% of its $173.5 million backlog attributed to these segments, reflects a robust pipeline for revenue generation moving forward.
Bears say
Ballard Power Systems Inc. reported a significant decline in 4Q revenue, posting $24.5 million—48% lower year-over-year—failing to meet consensus estimates. Additionally, the company's gross margins fell to -13%, resulting in an anticipated gross margin of -32% for FY 2024, which marks an 1100 basis points decline from 2023 due to low product volumes. The analysis indicates that the company will face ongoing challenges with negative earnings per share and cash flow forecasts, exacerbated by accumulated operating losses and a shrinking total backlog, eroding investor confidence in future growth prospects.
