The Bull case, 20 quarters out

Model as of

Each segment is projected from its own operating driver, rolled up into consolidated cash flow, and discounted back to a fair value per share. The assumptions below are editable — change them and every number on this page moves with them.

Bloom reports four revenue streams — Product, Installation, Service and Electricity — on the face of every income statement, so all four verticals carry REPORTED revenue and nothing is apportioned. Every quarter from 2023 Q1 to 2026 Q2 is a disclosed split except the three fourth quarters, which are the full-year segment figure less the nine-month year-to-date and are flagged estimated. The stream revenues sum exactly to reported consolidated revenue in thirteen of fourteen quarters; 2023 Q4 differs by $1 thousand, a rounding artifact of that subtraction. What is NOT disclosed, and is therefore ours: the end-market split (AI data centre, utility channel, colocation, C&I) is nowhere in the filings and is deliberately not modelled; megawatts shipped or accepted are disclosed in no period, so every megawatt here is back-solved from an assumed $3.0M/MW; the installed service fleet is assumed; and Bloom allocates no operating expense to a stream, so verticals carry gross margin only and all opex sits in the corporate layer — which is what makes 33.38% gross margin less 16.27% opex reconcile to the reported 17.11% operating margin. One material item the engine cannot express: the Oracle warrant is contra-revenue, not cost. Its $324.4M fair value is recognised as a reduction of revenue as the Oracle systems ship, and $306.5M of that still sits on the balance sheet as a customer consideration asset. The product line here is GROSS of it, so cumulative product revenue through the Oracle delivery window is overstated by up to $306.5M — roughly 8.5% of that tranche. Net cash of -$17.6M treats the $206.5M of financing obligations as debt; excluding them it is +$188.9M.

The option half of the book becomes purchase orders: Oracle's remaining 1.6 GW gets contracted, AEP exercises the rest of its option, and Brookfield's shelf funds the sites that let end users take power without capex. This is the case where the factory, not the order book, becomes the constraint and the incremental-gigawatt programme gets pulled forward. What it does NOT reach is the headline arithmetic — $25B of Brookfield capacity and 25 GW of supply visibility are capital and materials, not orders, and nothing in this model converts them.

Valuation

Against the deployed price of $276.98, as of −35%

GAAP-profitable for two quarters, one product line, and heavy concentration in a single named counterparty — 11% is the rate that pays for that. The 4.5x exit is power-equipment hardware at maturity; the stock trades near 16x forward revenue on the FY26 guide midpoint today.

Read the other way round: at $276.98 the market is paying 9.6x terminal-year revenue, holding every other assumption on this page fixed. That is the number to argue about.

Capital programmes

Capex outside the verticals

Each vertical's capex is a share of its own revenue, which is the right shape for capacity that scales with sales. These are not that: fixed-size programmes with their own schedule that spend whether or not any segment grows. They are added on top, and they are why free cash flow dips in the years below.

Fremont capacity expansion, each incremental gigawatt beyond 2 GW

2027 Q1 → 2027 Q3
Programme total$125M
Cash out$42M/qtr

The 10-K prices each incremental GW of run rate at $100-150M and six to nine months to install, up to a 5 GW ceiling the building can accommodate. This is the midpoint of one such step, and it belongs to no vertical.

DateFair value thenNote
2026-08-27 — Audited quarterly cyclicality across all four revenue streams. Kept projections numerically unchanged: filings tie installation volatility to project mix and milestone timing, while product is already paced by capacity and customer delivery windows rather than a repeatable calendar quarter.
2026-08-23 — First cut, built from the scope-model intake brief on the 2026 Q2 basis.
