- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Maxwell Technologies share price underperformed the broader industry in the last one year, as the latest subsidy changes in the China bus market have been causing certain revenue challenges for it. Moreover, Maxwell is witnessing significant competition and pricing pressure in the Chinese hybrid transit vehicle market, which has historically represented a significant portion of its revenues. Maxwell’s geographically diversified revenue base subjects the company to foreign currency exchange risk. Maxwell depends on the sale of products into Asia and Europe, where macroeconomic factors outside its control may adversely affect sales of its ultracapacitors. However, the company aims at optimizing its energy storage portfolio to transition its business to higher growth opportunities in a large and growing addressable market worth $1.4 billion by 2022.
