• Ideal Power beat quarterly EPS estimates, reporting a loss of $0.20 per share versus the expected $0.23 loss, though revenue of $10,000 fell well short of the $100,000 consensus.
• The company’s commercial pipeline expanded to more than $400 million, with progress toward customer prototypes, automotive development, and a long-term supply agreement with an Asian wafer foundry.
• Ideal Power ended June with $41.3 million in cash and no debt after raising $27.7 million, but it continues to post losses and expects 2026 cash burn of $10.3 million to $10.5 million; the financing may also increase shareholder dilution.

• Commercial pipeline expanded to more than $400 million, up from approximately $300 million in mid-May, spanning AI data centers, energy infrastructure, automotive, solid-state circuit breakers, and EV contactors.
• Ideal Power is progressing toward multiple customer milestones, including prototype shipments to its lead Asia customer later this month, a planned intelligent SSCB prototype for a U.S. hyperscaler by the end of Q4 2026, and continued development with Stellantis.
• The company signed a long-term supply agreement with an automotive-qualified, high-volume Asian wafer foundry and achieved functional first silicon, which management believes can support future scale and targeted gross margins of 40% or more.
• Ideal Power raised $27.7 million in net proceeds, ending June with $41.3 million in cash and no debt; management said the stronger balance sheet supports commercialization without changing its disciplined spending approach.
