Birchtech Wins Court Ruling Lifting Patent Judgment to About $78 Million

An update from Birchtech ( (BCHT) ) is now available.

Birchtech has secured a key court decision in its long-running patent infringement case against refined coal operators, with a U.S. District Court judge in Delaware increasing the expected final judgment to roughly $78 million through the award of pre- and post-judgment interest. The ruling caps a litigation campaign launched in 2019 that has already generated about $37 million in license fees and settlements and driven nine license or supply deals with coal-fired utilities, strengthening Birchtech’s IP position and expanding adoption of its mercury emissions technology across the U.S. power fleet. Management says the enlarged judgment will provide immediate financial firepower to pursue additional licenses and supply contracts and to accelerate commercialization of its next-generation water purification technologies for removing PFAS and other contaminants, positioning the company for a series of operational catalysts over the next 12 to 18 months and potentially enhancing long-term shareholder value.

The most recent analyst rating on (BCHT) stock is a Buy with a $3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Birchtech stock, see the BCHT Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on BCHT Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, BCHT is a Neutral.

Birchtech faces substantial financial challenges, including negative equity and volatile revenue, despite some cash flow improvements. Technical indicators are bearish, and the stock’s valuation lacks appeal with no dividend and negative earnings. The market’s neutral response to the latest earnings call provides little additional insight. Overall, the stock score reflects these mixed factors, with significant concerns overshadowing the positives.
