2. Energy Vault's Q3 2025 Earnings: A Pivotal Quarter for Growth

Energy Vault reported a revenue of $33.3 million in Q3 2025, a 27x increase year-over-year, with a gross margin of 27% and a year-to-date gross margin of 32.6%. The EBITDA loss narrowed to $6 million. The actual EPS came out at '-0.16' relative to estimates at '-0.1', indicating a loss per share that was slightly worse than expected.

Publication Date: Dec -02

📋 Highlights
  • Revenue Surge:: Q3 revenue hit $33.3M, a 27x y-o-y increase, with 27% gross margin.
  • EBITDA Improvement:: Loss narrowed to $6M, while Asset Vault projects $40M recurring EBITDA by 2027.
  • Backlog & Cash Growth:: Contract backlog near $1B, cash to reach $75M–$100M by year-end.
  • Development Pipeline:: $2.1B in advanced projects (8.7GWh), including 1.5GW priority market deployments.
  • Sustainability Leadership:: Ranked 98th percentile by S&P Global, with 90% backlog insulated from US tariffs.

Contract Backlog and Cash Balance

The contract backlog remains near $1 billion, with a substantial increase in cash balance, expected to reach $75 million to $100 million by the end of the year. The company's cash position has improved significantly, providing a strong foundation for future growth. The $920 million backlog does not include recently announced projects in Albania, which will contribute to recurring EBITDA and be added to backlog and Asset Vault.

Asset Vault and Growth Opportunities

The company closed a $300 million preferred equity agreement with Orion Infrastructure, enabling the launch of Asset Vault, which is expected to contribute $40 million in recurring adjusted EBITDA by year-end 2027 and $100 million to $150 million by year-end 2029. Energy Vault acquired a 150-megawatt interconnect site outside of Houston, Texas, and entered into an agreement with EU Green for a 400-megawatt hour project in Albania. The company's development pipeline for advanced projects is around $2.1 billion or roughly 8.7 gigawatt hours.

Valuation and Outlook

Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 29.0%. The company's valuation metrics indicate a high growth expectation, with a P/S Ratio of 10.86 and an EV/EBITDA of -4.16. The ROE and ROIC are both negative, indicating that the company is still in a growth phase and has not yet achieved profitability. Despite the challenges, the company's diverse footprint and agility position it well for future growth. A 90% decline in battery prices over five years has also positioned the company well.
