Fluence Energy Slumps 14% to One-Year Low as Goldman, Baird Downgrade After Guidance Cut
FLNC is trading near its 52-week low of $7.01 (11% above the low) on elevated volume (3.1× avg).
Summary
Fluence Energy shares fell 13.9% to a nearly one-year low after the company cut its FY2026 revenue guidance to ~$2.4B and adjusted EBITDA to a $200M loss, citing Houston production ramp delays. Goldman Sachs downgraded to Neutral with a $9 target, and Baird cut to Underperform with a $3 target, slashed from $10. Baird notes the 20% guidance cut implies a nearly 50% Q4 reduction, and management's commentary about temporarily pulling back from U.S. business is a material negative. This follows yesterday's guidance update and adds analyst reaction and today's price action.
