Fervo Energy (NASDAQ:FRVO) Posts Earnings Results, Beats Expectations By $0.03 EPS

Fervo Energy (NASDAQ:FRVO) issued its quarterly earnings data on Monday. The company reported ($0.07) earnings per share for the quarter, topping analysts’ consensus estimates of ($0.10) by $0.03, Zacks reports. The company had revenue of $0.12 million for the quarter.

Here are the key takeaways from Fervo Energy’s conference call:

• Cape Station’s first 33 MW GeoBlock entered commercial operation ahead of its deadline, delivering power and revenue under its PPA. Fervo said early flow, temperature and production results are in line with expectations; GeoBlocks 2 and 3 have reached key commissioning milestones and remain on track for commercial operation by January 1, 2027.
• Fervo signed a 15-year, take-or-pay PPA with Google for approximately 396 MW, targeted for delivery in 2028, bringing binding PPAs to 1,054 MW and contracted revenue to about $11.9 billion. A separate option for roughly 600 MW depends on development of a potential data center and regulatory progress.
• The company expects installed CapEx of $5,500 per kW for GeoBlocks 4–11, down from about $7,000 per kW for the first three GeoBlocks, while maintaining its longer-term $3,000-per-kW target. Fervo said construction spending is shifting later without changing Cape Google 400’s schedule or its approximately $2.2 billion total investment plan through 2028.
• Fervo reported that an updated independent resource study nearly doubled Cape Station’s estimated capacity potential to 8.4 GW, and its early-development pipeline grew to 54.7 GW. The company said deeper, hotter drilling and continued operational data support expansion potential, though much of the broader pipeline remains at an early stage.
• Q3 G&A rose to $39.4 million from $27.4 million in Q2, partly due to higher stock-based compensation, hiring and public-company costs; operating loss was $43.7 million. Reported net income of $11.7 million included a non-cash swap gain and tax-credit benefit, so it does not reflect underlying operating profitability.
