ChargePoint beats Q1 estimates with $101.8M revenue, narrower loss

ChargePoint Holdings reported Q1 revenue of $101.8 million, beating estimates, while posting a narrower-than-expected loss of 74 cents a share.

"Our Q1 results reflect continued execution as we scale the business," CEO Rick Wilmer said in a statement.

The Campbell, California-based EV charging network operator posted revenue of $101.8 million for the quarter ended April 30, topping the $98.4 million average analyst estimate. The adjusted loss of 74 cents a share compared with expectations for a loss of $1.04.

The results come as ChargePoint navigates a challenging EV market, with slower-than-expected adoption weighing on charging infrastructure demand. Shares of the company have declined more than 50 percent over the past 12 months.

ChargePoint's revenue performance signals stabilizing demand for its commercial and fleet charging solutions, a key segment as the company shifts focus from consumer to business customers. The company has been working to reduce operating costs and improve cash flow amid a broader industry pullback in EV infrastructure spending.

The narrower loss per share reflects cost-cutting measures implemented over the past year, including workforce reductions and facility consolidation. ChargePoint has not yet disclosed guidance for the current quarter.

The earnings beat suggests ChargePoint's restructuring efforts are gaining traction, though the company still faces headwinds from a sluggish EV adoption curve. Investors will watch for the Q2 earnings call for updated margin targets and any signs of demand acceleration from commercial fleet customers.
