Energous Starts Generating A Small Amount Of Product Revenue

Summary Energous has finally started shipping measurable quantities of product, around 10 years after it was founded. Product revenues remain quite limited though, estimated at around $0.1 million for the first half of 2022. Product margins also appear to be highly negative due to the limited volumes at the moment. Cash burn for the first half of 2022 was $13.4 million, slightly higher than my expectations.

Energous: Some Revenue Growth Expected In 2022 Along With Significant Cash Burn

Energous expects to have some revenue growth in 2022, although this probably means revenues at around $1 million for the full year. It should not need another equity raise until early-to-mid 2023. However, there is no sightline to escaping the cycle of significant cash burn followed by equity raises to fund further operations. Thus, I'd value Energous at a discount to its current cash balance. It needs to generate at least several million per year in consumer product revenues for its prospects to look better.
