Executive Summary

Beam Global reported Q1 2026 revenue of $3.1M (down 51% YoY) and a GAAP net loss of $(0.33)/share, beating the consensus EPS estimate of $(0.21) by 66.1%. Revenue missed the $7.3M consensus by 57.5%, driven by order timing, a slow European quarter, and lack of federal EV spending. Backlog grew 50% to $9.0M, and Q2-to-date revenue already exceeds Q1 total, but the sharp revenue decline and negative gross margin (-13.3%) are bearish signals.

Gross Margin
-13.3%

Actionable Insight

The 51% revenue decline and negative gross margin are bearish, but the 50% backlog growth and Q2-to-date revenue exceeding Q1 total suggest a near-term inflection. Watch for Q2 2026 revenue confirmation and margin recovery; the $100M unused credit line provides a liquidity buffer. The stock's low market cap ($39M) amplifies volatility — any positive revenue surprise in Q2 could trigger a sharp rally.

Key Facts

  • Q1 2026 revenue $3.1M, down 51% YoY from $6.3M, missing $7.3M consensus by 57.5%
  • GAAP EPS $(0.33) vs consensus $(0.21) — beat of 66.1% driven by lower share count and cost controls, not operational strength
  • Gross loss of $(0.4M), negative gross margin of -13.3% vs positive 7.9% a year ago
  • Backlog grew 50% QoQ to $9.0M from $6.0M; Q2 2026 revenue through May 15 already exceeds Q1 total
  • Net loss $6.9M vs $15.5M a year ago; Non-GAAP net loss $3.7M vs $3.0M
  • No debt; $100M unused line of credit; working capital $6.2M, down $2.7M from Dec 2025
  • International revenue 51% of total (vs 25% a year ago); non-government commercial revenue up 48% YoY to 78% of total

Financial Impact

Revenue declined 51% YoY to $3.1M, missing consensus by $4.2M. GAAP net loss improved to $(6.9M) from $(15.5M) but non-GAAP loss widened to $(3.7M) from $(3.0M).

Risk Factors

  • Revenue concentration in order timing and federal EV policy uncertainty
  • Negative gross margin may persist if revenue does not recover in Q2
  • $1.8M provision for credit losses on a single customer balance indicates counterparty risk
  • Working capital declined $2.7M; cash burn continues despite cost controls
