Description: BLDP Ballard Power Systems October 23, 2025

Ballard Power Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: BLDP) designs, develops, manufactures, sells, and services proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel-cell products for a range of applications-including buses, trucks, rail, marine, stationary power, and emerging markets such as material-handling equipment and off-road vehicles. The company also provides technology-solution services, after-sales support, training, engineering, system integration, and technology-transfer services for its PEM fuel-cell platforms.

Key recent metrics: Ballard reported FY 2023 revenue of approximately $138 million, a 31 % YoY increase driven by a growing order backlog now exceeding $500 million; its gross margin improved to 38 % as economies of scale were realized in the new Gen 4 fuel-cell line. Macro drivers include accelerating government hydrogen incentives (e.g., the EU’s “Fit for 55” plan and U.S. Inflation Reduction Act tax credits) and a projected CAGR of ~15 % for the global PEM fuel-cell market through 2030, which underpins demand across transportation and stationary-power segments.
