Eos Energy Enterprises Reports Fourth Quarter & Full Year 2023 Financial Results and Provides 2024 Outlook

EDISON, N.J., March 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOSE) ("Eos" or the “Company”), a leading provider of safe, scalable, efficient, and sustainable zinc-based long duration energy storage systems, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023, and announced 2024 outlook.

Fourth Quarter Highlights

  • Revenue totaled $6.6 million, a 148% increase compared to prior year, as the Company fully transitioned production to the Eos Z3TM Cube on its semi-automated manufacturing line.
  • Cost of Goods Sold totaled $30.4 million, a 66% gross margin improvement compared to prior year resulting from the Eos Z3 battery’s simple design that utilizes low-cost raw materials combined with a streamlined manufacturing process.
  • Operating expenses totaled $18.5 million; a 10% reduction compared to Q4 2022. 
  • Cash balance of $69.5 million (excluding restricted cash) as of December 31, 2023. 
  • Commercial opportunity pipeline of $13 billion, a 77% increase compared to prior year with a $534.8 million orders backlog as of December 31, 2023, an increase of 15% compared to December 31, 2022. 

Full Year Highlights

  • Revenue totaled $16.4 million, compared to $17.9 million in the prior year as the company launched the Eos Z3 Cube that has current cycle times of less than 3-minutes, down 70% since product launch, with scrap rates running below 3%. 
  • Costs of Goods Sold was $89.8 million, a $63.5 million decrease compared to prior year, a 41% gross margin improvement driven by lower raw material input costs combined with initial Z3 program benefits.
  • Operating expenses of $79.5M, a 7% decrease compared to prior year, primarily driven by tighter cost control measures.

Eos Chief Executive Officer Joe Mastrangelo said, “Eos transitioned its entire manufacturing capacity from Gen 2.3 to the new Eos Z3 Cube. We’ve already begun seeing the anticipated operational benefits associated with the Z3 battery design that provides improved power density along with lower unit costs from its simpler mechanical design.” 

Mastrangelo concluded, “We remain focused on executing the path to profitability outlined in our December 12 strategic outlook call that includes bringing into service the state-of-the-art (SotA) manufacturing line 1. I’m pleased to report that the timeline for expanding affordable American made battery storage capacity remains unchanged. There continues to be strong demand signals for longer duration energy storage, and we’re excited to work with our customers to fulfill this growing need with a safe, secure and differentiated alternative.”

2024 Outlook

  • For full year 2024, the Company expects to recognize $60 million to $90 million in revenue as state-of-the-art (SotA) line 1 is expected to begin initial commercial production in Q2 2024. The Company then plans to increase manufacturing volume throughout 2024 that aligns production with customer requirements as well as the planned realization of its cost-out roadmap.
  • The Company forecasts positive contribution margin in Q4 2024 as multiple cost reduction actions are implemented throughout the year. Contribution margin is defined as sales price less direct labor and direct materials and includes the benefit of the production tax credits. The cost out program should deliver initial benefits in late Q1 2024, with majority of the benefits being achieved in Q4 2024 as the Company ramps up production volume.

Recent Business Highlights

Project AMAZE
At the end of January, the Company’s automation partner, ACRO Automation, fully powered on the core Eos Z3 battery assembly and finishing operations on SotA line 1. Achieving this milestone begins system integration, implementing final controls logic and full mechanical completion followed by the automation system debugging to prepare for Factory Acceptance Testing in Wisconsin. The Company is currently on schedule for full SotA line 1 commissioning in Turtle Creek during Q2 2024.

Eos Z3 Product Launch
In mid-February, the Company produced the 100th Eos Z3 Cube which took less than 5 months compared to Gen 2.3 where over one and a half years were required to produce the first 100 units. Since the Z3 launch in September, the Company has reduced Eos Z3 battery cycle times from an average of 10 minutes at launch to 3 minutes, with scrap rates below 3%. The Company will continue manufacturing on its semi-automated manufacturing line until SotA line 1 is commissioned. The 2024 revenue assumptions tie factory output with customer delivery requirements and the Company’s cost-out roadmap to minimize working capital requirements.

Path to Profitability
During the first quarter, the Company entered a multiyear agreement with SABIC Specialties’ US business unit to supply conductive composite thermoplastic for the Eos Z3 battery module while also expanding its partnership with TETRA Technologies. TETRA is designated as Eos’s preferred strategic electrolyte supplier for the Eos Z3 Cube. These expanded partnerships position Eos to better achieve scale, reduce costs per battery, and improve overall quality and performance as the Company progresses on its cost-out roadmap with initial savings to be realized in late Q1 2024. As of Q4 2023, the Company achieved nearly 30% product cost out, which is more than 35% of the Z3 cost reduction goal stated on the December 12 strategic outlook call. The Company expects the Eos Z3 Cube to achieve a power density up to 695 kWh for longer duration applications by the end of Q1 2024 with planned increases to deliver 800 kWh by the end of 2024.

Commercial Outlook
The Company continues to build a strong foundation both domestically and internationally, with its commercial opportunity pipeline increasing to $13 billion as of Q4 2023.  There are 1.9 GWh in late-stage opportunities, including a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Pine Gate Renewables to expand the existing partnership with closing anticipated by the end of Q1 2024. Recent macro-level regulations continue to drive a shift toward longer duration discharges combined with the need for safe, secure American made energy storage solutions. In addition, the Company is seeing increased international momentum as three key markets recently communicated renewable goals for the next decade. Most recently, an Eos Z3 Cube was shipped to Sicily, Italy to test a diverse set of potential use cases that is expected to provide further opportunities for international growth.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are also subject to additional risks, uncertainties, and factors, including those more fully described in the Company’s most recent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Further information on potential risks that could affect actual results will be included in the subsequent periodic and current reports and other filings that the Company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. Moreover, the Company operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks and uncertainties may emerge that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and, except as required by law, the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Key Metrics

Backlog. Our backlog represents the amount of revenue that we expect to realize from existing agreements with our customers for the sale of our battery energy storage systems and performance of services. The backlog is calculated by adding new orders in the current fiscal period to the backlog as of the end of the prior fiscal period and then subtracting the shipments in the current fiscal period. If the amount of an order is modified or cancelled, we adjust orders in the current period and our backlog accordingly, but do not retroactively adjust previously published backlogs. There is no comparable US-GAAP financial measure for backlog. We believe that the backlog is a useful indicator regarding the future revenue of our Company.

Pipeline. Our pipeline represents projects for which we have submitted technical proposals or non-binding quotes plus letters of intent (“LOI”) or firm commitments from customers. Pipeline does not include lead generation projects.

Booked Orders. Booked orders are orders where we have legally binding agreements with a Purchase Order (“PO”) or Master Supply Agreement (“MSA”) executed by both parties.
