Fluence Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLNC) provides battery energy storage systems, software, and services. The company is not currently profitable, which is shown by its negative price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of -23.72. A P/E ratio compares a company's stock price to its earnings per share; a negative value indicates Fluence Energy has negative earnings, or a net loss.
On August 5, 2026, Fluence Energy reported its third-quarter earnings results. The company posted an earnings per share (EPS) of -$0.24. This result missed analyst expectations, which, as highlighted by Zacks Equity Research, forecasted a much smaller quarterly loss of $0.05 per share.
The company's revenue for the period was $649.85 million, which also fell short of the estimated $819.15 million. Although this revenue is an increase from $602.50 million in the same quarter last year, the miss was attributed to production delays at new contract manufacturing facilities.
These revenue delays and initial costs directly impacted profitability. The company's GAAP gross profit margin, which is the profit from sales before administrative costs, decreased to 5.1% from 14.8% in the prior year. Similarly, the adjusted gross profit margin fell to 5.9% from 15.4%.
From a balance sheet perspective, Fluence Energy has a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.05, showing it holds slightly more debt than equity. However, its current ratio of 1.34 suggests it has enough short-term assets, like cash and inventory, to cover its short-term liabilities, such as payments owed to suppliers.
