Reason
Clear Street analyst Tim Moore upgraded Plug Power to Buy from Hold with a price target of $3, down from $3.50. The firm sees more attractive upside in the shares following the recent selloff. It cites dilution from Plug Power's convertible refinancing in late November for the target drop. Plug has a "path to profitability" as its $200M of annual cost savings, higher recent pricing and volume growth leverage should drive gross margin expansion as early as the June quarter, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Clear believes execution of the Allied Green Ammonia contract could be the catalyst for Plug Power to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA.

Susquehanna lowered the firm's price target on Plug Power to $2.50 from $3.50 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm said the company reported 3Q results, with both revenue and EPS coming in behind firm estimates. The company continues to make progress on reducing its cash burn and expects to exit the year with breakeven gross margins. The electrolyzer business is expected to do ~$200M in FY'25 revenue and the pipeline for new orders remains healthy.
