Read MoreHide Full Article
Eos Energy Enterprises (EOSE - Free Report) reported an adjusted loss of 16 cents per share in fourth-quarter 2023, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 22 cents per share. The company had reported a loss of 68 cents per share in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Eos transitioned its entire manufacturing capacity from Gen 2.3 to the new Eos Z3 Cube. Operational benefits associated with the Z3 battery design that provides improved power density along with lower unit costs from its simpler mechanical design have started aiding results.
The company reported net sales of $6.6 million in the reported quarter, which marked a 148% surge year over year as the company fully transitioned production to the Eos Z3Cube on its semi-automated manufacturing line. The top line missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $8 million.
The cost of sales amounted to $30.4 million in the quarter, down 1.3% from the year-ago quarter’s levels. EOSE reported a gross loss of $23.8 million compared with a gross loss of $28.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Fiscal 2024 Outlook
In 2024, Eos Energy anticipates revenues to range from $60 million to $90 million with the commencement of initial commercial production on its state-of-the-art line 1 in the second quarter. Subsequently, the company intends to boost manufacturing volume throughout 2024 to align production with customer demands and the planned realization of its cost-out roadmap.
EOSE predicts a positive contribution margin (calculated as the sales price minus direct labor and direct materials, including the benefits of production tax credits) in the fourth quarter of 2024. This projection is based on the implementation of various cost-reduction measures throughout the year. The cost-out program is anticipated to yield initial benefits in late Q1 2024, with the majority of the advantages expected to be realized in Q4 2024 as the company scales up its production volume.
