Penny Stock Plug Power (PLUG) Is About to Report Q2 Earnings on August 11. Here Is What to Expect

Plug Power (PLUG), a provider of hydrogen fuel cell solutions, will release its Q2 results on August 11. This penny stock has fallen over 29% year-to-date and 27.4% over the past year due to poor financial performance, continued losses, and weak investor sentiment in the hydrogen and clean energy sector. Wall Street analysts expect the company to report a loss of $0.15 per share for Q2 2025, versus a $0.36 per share loss reported in the prior-year quarter.

Analysts’ Views on PLUG Ahead of Q2 Results

Ahead of the Q2 print, Jefferies analyst Julien Dumoulin Smith raised his price target on the stock from $0.90 to $1.60 but kept a Hold rating. The 4-star analyst said that even though the new clean energy bill is now in place, it’s still hard to be confident about renewable energy stocks. 

The bill, called the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” offers extended tax credits for clean electricity and hydrogen projects. These credits are meant to support growth and investment in renewable energy.

Meanwhile, H.C. Wainwright analyst Amit Dayal reiterated a Buy rating and $3 price target on Plug Power, noting that recent changes in clean energy incentives, especially the extension of hydrogen tax credits, are positive for the company’s long-term outlook.
