- According to RBC Capital, Bloom Energy appears positioned to supply power for EdgeMode’s dual 1.2GW data center developments in Panama
- RBC maintained its Buy recommendation with a $335 target price, suggesting potential upside of roughly 54%

Shares of Bloom Energy (BE) began Friday’s trading session at $217.30, posting a modest 1% increase during early market hours despite emerging reports about a significant data center partnership in Panama. The stock has experienced a decline exceeding 10% across the previous five sessions and approximately 33% throughout the past month — a downturn sparked by short-seller critiques and apprehensions regarding deployment postponements connected to an Oracle collaboration.
During a Thursday interview with Core Finance, EdgeMode’s CEO Charlie Faulkner revealed his company had incorporated two additional 1.2GW data center developments in Panama into its project pipeline. These initiatives complement EdgeMode’s current expansion into solid-oxide fuel cell infrastructure across Europe.
RBC Capital’s analyst Chris Dendrinos promptly weighed in, indicating Bloom Energy appears to be the probable energy provider for these facilities — potentially representing an expansion of their current collaboration.
According to Dendrinos, this development demonstrates sustained robust market interest in Bloom’s product offerings. He maintained his Buy recommendation while preserving his $335 target price, representing approximately 54% potential appreciation from present trading levels.
Wall Street Maintains Optimistic Outlook Through Market Decline
JPMorgan similarly retained its Buy position on BE shares during the current week. The financial institution highlighted expanding electricity requirements and characterized the recent downturn across renewable energy and power generation equities as generating “compelling entry points.”
During the previous week, Bloom announced securing a fresh $1.7 billion capital commitment for its technological platform — a significant development as the equity faces downward pressure.
Institutional ownership activity has been noteworthy. Goldman Sachs expanded its position by 50.3% during the first quarter. Amundi boosted its holdings by 390.7% in the fourth quarter. Norges Bank established a fresh stake valued at nearly $240 million. Institutional investors collectively control approximately 77% of outstanding BE shares.
Wall Street’s consensus recommendation for BE stands at Moderate Buy, reflecting nine Buy ratings and 11 Hold ratings published during the preceding three months, alongside an average target price of $289.40 — representing roughly 33% upside from current trading levels.
Second Quarter Results Anticipated
Bloom’s most recent quarterly disclosure, covering the first quarter, substantially exceeded Wall Street projections. The firm delivered earnings of $0.44 per share versus consensus expectations of $0.12, representing a $0.32 outperformance. Revenue reached $751.05 million, marking a 130.4% year-over-year increase, surpassing analyst forecasts of $539.94 million.
Looking ahead to fiscal 2026, Bloom has established earnings guidance ranging from $1.85 to $2.25 per share. The analyst community collectively projects $1.43 EPS for that period.
Notwithstanding positive analyst perspectives, company insiders have continued divesting shares. During the most recent 90-day period, insiders offloaded approximately 153,617 shares valued at roughly $44 million.
BE stock trades within a 12-month range spanning from $29.90 to $351.28. The 50-day moving average sits at $272.41, notably above the current share price of $217.30.
