ERock (NYSE:EROC – Get Free Report) announced its earnings results on Thursday. The company reported $0.04 EPS for the quarter, topping the consensus estimate of ($0.01) by $0.05, FiscalAI reports. The company had revenue of $152.77 million for the quarter.
Here are the key takeaways from ERock’s conference call:
- Third-quarter revenue nearly quadrupled sequentially to $153 million, and adjusted EBITDA improved by about $27 million to $12.6 million. ERock reaffirmed 2026 guidance of $435 million–$465 million in revenue and $3 million–$9 million in adjusted EBITDA.
- Demand remains strong across data centers, utilities and commercial and industrial customers; the company added more than $300 million in bookings after quarter-end, setting a new backlog record. Production is sold out through early 2028, with management saying customer conversations are increasingly focused on 2028 and 2029 deliveries.
- ERock expects Hyperion to reach 1.2 GW of annual capacity by year-end 2026 and plans for its Atlas facility to add about 900 MW by the first half of 2028, with room to expand. Atlas is expected to require just $20 million–$30 million in capital spending, which the company says it can fund from existing liquidity.
- Bridge-power periods are extending from roughly three years toward five to seven years, which management said generates about three times the ongoing services revenue of backup and dispatchable periods. The company also cited repeat and expansion opportunities among commercial and industrial customers.
- Near-term margins remain tied to projects priced in 2025, generally in the high teens to low 20s, and management said 2027 is largely locked in. It sees recently priced deals reaching the mid-20s or higher, but expects much of that potential margin improvement to show up in 2028 and beyond.
