Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE: BE) reported today its total revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023, grew 37% compared with the third quarter of 2022. The record revenue for the quarter was driven by continued growth in Product and Service revenue.
Third Quarter Highlights
“Bloom Energy is executing at a high level on innovation and growth,” said KR Sridhar, Chairman and CEO of Bloom Energy. “AI adoption across all sectors of our society will become a forcing function for data centers to adopt Bloom energy servers as a quickly deployable primary power solution. The ability to quickly deploy our energy servers together with our CHP solution for data center cooling and carbon capture for sustainability creates a real competitive advantage over virtually all alternatives in the marketplace. We are excited with our results and future prospects.”
Greg Cameron, President and CFO of Bloom Energy, added, “We had a very strong third quarter and are executing across our company. We achieved record third quarter revenues with expanding margins. We have made significant progress on reducing our costs as we continue to invest and innovate for our future. We are well positioned to meet our 2023 goals.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. Bloom urges you to review the reconciliations of its non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. With respect to Bloom’s expectations regarding its 2023 Outlook, Bloom is not able to provide a quantitative reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin measures to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation expense. Material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results and, as such, we believe that any reconciliation provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

Use of non-GAAP financial measures
To supplement Bloom Energy condensed consolidated financial statement information presented on a GAAP basis, Bloom Energy provides financial measures including non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit (loss) margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA. Bloom Energy also provides forecasts of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not computed in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP in the United States.
Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP information are included in the tables above or elsewhere in the materials accompanying this news release.
Use and economic substance of non-GAAP financial measures used by Bloom Energy
Non-GAAP gross profit (loss) and non-GAAP gross margin are defined to exclude charges relating to stock-based compensation expense, PPA V and PPA IIIa repowering related impairment charges, restructuring charges, and PPA V Sales property tax. Non-GAAP net earnings and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share consist of net earnings or diluted net earnings per share excluding charges relating to stock-based compensation expense, gain (loss) for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, PPA V and PPA IIIa repowering related impairment charges, goodwill impairment, interest expense on SK loan commitment, restructuring charges, PPA V Sales property tax, loss on debt extinguishment, loss on China JV investment and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net profit (loss) before interest expense, provision for income tax, depreciation and amortization expense, charges relating to stock-based compensation expense, gain (loss) for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, PPA V and PPA IIIa repowering related impairment charges, goodwill impairment, interest expense on SK loan commitment, restructuring charges, PPA V Sales property tax, loss on debt extinguishment, loss on China JV investment and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Bloom Energy management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for purposes of evaluating Bloom Energy’s historical and prospective financial performance, as well as Bloom Energy’s performance relative to its competitors. Bloom Energy believes that excluding the items mentioned above from these non-GAAP financial measures allows Bloom Energy management to better understand Bloom Energy’s consolidated financial performance as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of ongoing operating results. More specifically, Bloom Energy management excludes each of those items mentioned above for the following reasons:
For more information about these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to non-GAAP Net Profit (Loss) and Computation of non-GAAP Net Profit (Loss) per Share (EPS),” and “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA” set forth in this release, which should be read together with the preceding financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Material limitations associated with use of non-GAAP financial measures
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Bloom Energy results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations in relying on these non-GAAP financial measures are:
Compensation for limitations associated with use of non-GAAP financial measures
Bloom Energy compensates for the limitations on its use of non-GAAP financial measures by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures only as a supplement. Bloom Energy also provides a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure within this news release and in other written materials that include these non-GAAP financial measures, and Bloom Energy encourages investors to review those reconciliations carefully.
Usefulness of non-GAAP financial measures to investors
Bloom Energy believes that providing financial measures including non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit (loss) margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in addition to the related GAAP measures provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by Bloom Energy management in its financial and operational decision making and allows investors to see Bloom Energy’s results “through the eyes” of management. Bloom Energy further believes that providing this information better enables Bloom Energy investors to understand Bloom Energy’s operating performance and to evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by Bloom Energy management to evaluate and measure such performance. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates comparisons of Bloom Energy’s operating performance with the performance of other companies in Bloom Energy’s industry that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures that may be calculated in a similar manner.
