Read MoreHide Full Article

FuelCell Energy Inc. (FCEL - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter fiscal 2021 results on Jun 10. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 50%.

Let’s see how things have shaped up for this alternate energy company prior to the earnings announcement.

Factors to Note

Its fiscal second-quarter earnings are expected to have gained from increasing adoption of the fuel cell technology and proper execution of project projects.

It lowered debts via proceeds from an equity offering, which in turn is likely to have helped the company reduce capital servicing costs in the fiscal second quarter.

Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top and bottom lines is pegged at $19.18 million and a loss of 5 cents per share, respectively. The top- and bottom-line estimates indicate year-over-year growth of 1.6% and 28.6%, respectively.
