The net book value of the asset of approximately $3.9 million, which was recorded in property, plant and equipment as of October 31, 2006, was recorded in cost of product sales and revenues upon the sale of the asset. In addition, this sale resulted in the assumption by the buyer of certain of our incentive fund liabilities resulting in a $2.2 million decrease in deferred revenue liabilities, which was recorded in cost of product sales and revenues. Net cash proceeds from this transaction were $1.8 million, which is included within operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows. Refer also to Note 5 - Property, Plant and Equipment. 

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal proceedings

On November 14, 2005, Zoot Properties, LLC and Zoot Enterprises, Inc. (“Zoot”) commenced an action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana, Butte Division against the Company and one of our distribution partners, PPL Energy Services Holding, LLC. The lawsuit alleged that the plaintiffs purchased fuel cells from PPL that were manufactured by the Company, and that these fuel cells failed to perform as represented and warranted. Zoot sought rescission of the contract with PPL, totaling approximately $2.5 million. We reached a settlement agreement on this lawsuit resulting in payments by the Company, net of insurance, of $0.8 million and the power plants are being returned to the Company.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents

Approximately $6.7 million of our cash and cash equivalents have been pledged as collateral and letters of credit for certain banking relationships and customer contracts in which we participate. Approximately $6.0 million of this collateral supports letters of credit, which have expiration dates on or before December 31, 2007.

OVERVIEW

FuelCell Energy, Inc. is a world leader in the development and manufacture of fuel cell power plants for ultra-clean, efficient and reliable electric power generation using renewable and domestic fuels. Our products are designed to meet the 24/7 baseload power needs of commercial, industrial, government and utility customers. To date our products have generated over 160 million kilowatt hours of electricity and we have installed power plants at over 50 locations worldwide.

We have been developing fuel cell technology since our founding in 1969. Our core carbonate fuel cell products (“Direct FuelCell^® or DFC^® Power Plants”), offer stationary applications for customers. In addition to our current commercial products, we continue to develop our next generation of carbonate fuel cell and hybrid products as well as planar solid oxide fuel cell (“SOFC”) technology with our own and government research and development funds.

18

---

 

Our proprietary carbonate DFC power plants electrochemically (meaning without combustion) produce electricity directly from readily available hydrocarbon fuels, such as natural gas and biomass fuels. Customers buy fuel cells to improve reliability, reduce costs and reduce emissions.

We believe our products offer significant advantages compared to other power generation technologies:

·

Reliable 24/7 baseload power,

·

High fuel efficiency,

·

Ultra-clean (e.g. virtually zero emissions) quiet operation,

·

Lower cost to generate electricity, and

·

The ability to site units locally and provide high temperature heat for cogeneration applications.

Our core products, the DFC300MA, DFC1500MA and DFC3000, are currently rated in capacity at 300 kW, 1.2 MW and 2.4 MW, respectively and are designed for applications up to 50 MW. Our products meet the baseload power requirements of a wide range of customers including wastewater treatment plants (municipal, such as sewage treatment facilities, and industrial, such as breweries and food processors), hotels, manufacturing facilities, universities, hospitals, telecommunications/data centers, government facilities, as well as grid support applications for utility customers.  Our DFC power plants can be part of a total onsite power generation solution for customers with our high efficiency products providing the baseload power with grid-delivered electricity and intermittent power, such as solar, or less efficient combustion-based equipment providing peaking and load following energy needs. Our fuel cells offer flexible siting and easy permitting. Our products are also ideal to meet the needs of utilities and Renewable Portfolio Standards (“RPS”) clean energy mandates now in 22 states and Washington D.C.

The market is beginning to recognize the advantages of stationary fuel cell power. Volatile fuel and energy prices, the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol by over 160 countries since 2005, and worldwide efforts to minimize greenhouse gases like CO2 and other harmful emissions with mandates for significant increases in clean electric power generation, are placing greater emphasis on ultra-clean, high efficiency distributed generation products. Electric generation without combustion significantly reduces harmful pollutants such as NOX, SOX and particulates. Higher fuel efficiency results in lower emissions of carbon dioxide, a major contributor of harmful greenhouse gases, and also results in less fuel needed per kWh of electricity generated and Btu of heat produced, thereby reducing exposure to volatile natural gas costs and minimizing operating costs. With increasing demand for renewable and ultra-clean power options, and increased volatility and uncertainty in electric markets, our customers gain control of power generation economics, reliability and emissions.

Our business strategy is to expand our leadership position in key markets, build multi-megawatt markets and continue to reduce the costs of our products. We believe that with the emergence of the RPS markets, the growth of the California market and continuing product cost reduction, we are well positioned to move to profitability. At a sustained annual order and production volume of approximately 35 MW to 50 MW, depending on product mix, geographic location and other variables such as fuel prices, we can reach gross margin breakeven. Our net income break-even can be achieved at a sustained annual order and volume production of approximately 75-100 MW assuming a mix of sub-MW and MW sales. With the multi-MW order potential of Asia, Connecticut and California, our DFC 3000, 2.4 MW product is expected to become gross margin profitable with volume. Thus, if product mix trends more toward MW and multi-MW orders, we believe that profitability can be achieved at annual volumes lower than 75 MW.

Customers buy our fuel cells for reliability, cost and environmental demands. There are currently strong incentive programs in our target markets including California and the Northeast in the U.S., South Korea and Japan in Asia and Germany in Europe that make the cost of clean power solutions including fuel cells, wind and solar, competitive. We believe that with continued cost reduction of our products and increased volume, our products will be cost competitive on an unsubsidized basis against the grid and other distributed generation products, such as engines.

Recent Developments

Expanded distribution agreement with POSCO Power

On February 20, 2007, we announced a ten-year manufacturing and distribution agreement with POSCO Power, a subsidiary of our Korean strategic distribution partner, POSCO. For the first two years of the agreement, we will sell complete Direct FuelCell power plants to POSCO Power until POSCO Power’s own manufacturing plant is ready to produce mechanical and electrical balance of plant components. Under the terms of the agreement, we will receive a 4.1 percent royalty on sales of balance of plant components made by POSCO Power payable in a combination of cash and common stock. POSCO Power also purchased approximately 3.8 million shares of our common stock, which are restricted for six months, for $29.0 million.

POSCO 5.1 MW Order

In June 2007, the Company accepted an order for the sale of 5.1 MW of power plants to its distribution partner POSCO Power. The sale includes one DFC3000 power plant (2.4 MW), two DFC1500MA power plants (1.2 MW each) and one DFC300MA (300 kW) power plant. The plants will operate in a grid-support capacity providing power to South Korean utility customers.

Common Stock Offerings

In April 2007, we completed a public offering of 9.4 million shares of our common stock for net proceeds of $65.4 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for product development, project financing, expansion of manufacturing capacity and general corporate purposes. Additionally, we sold 160,000 shares of our common stock on the open market during the six months ended April 30, 2007. Total net proceeds to us from the sale of these securities was approximately $1.1 million and is intended to be used for general corporate purposes and dividend payments on our preferred stock.

Versa Investment

Subsequent to April 30, 2007 we invested $2.0 million in Versa Power Systems, Inc. (Versa) in the form of a convertible note. This investment brings the Company’s ownership percentage in Versa to approximately 42% should this note be converted. In conjunction with this investment we also received warrants for the right to purchase an additional 2,286 shares of Versa common stock. Versa is a leading planar solid-oxide technology developer and is a subcontractor for the Company on the DOE’s large-scale hybrid project to develop a coal-based, multi-megawatt solid oxide fuel cell-based hybrid system.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Revenue Recognition

We contract with our customers to perform research and development, manufacture and install fuel cell components and power plants under long-term contracts, and provide services under contract. We recognize revenue on a method similar to the percentage-of-completion method.

Revenues on fuel cell research and development contracts are recognized proportionally as costs are incurred and compared to the estimated total research and development costs for each contract. In many cases, we are reimbursed only a portion of the costs incurred or to be incurred on the contract. Revenues from government funded research, development and demonstration programs are generally multi-year, cost reimbursement and/or cost shared type contracts or cooperative agreements. We are reimbursed for reasonable and allocable costs up to the reimbursement limits set by the contract or cooperative agreement.

While government research and development contracts may extend for many years, funding is often provided incrementally on a year-by-year basis if contract terms are met and Congress has authorized the funds. As of April 30, 2007, research and development sales backlog totaled $26.4 million, of which 38 percent is funded. Should funding be temporarily delayed or if business initiatives change, we may choose to devote resources to other activities, including internally funded research and development.

Product sales and revenues include revenues from power plant sales, service contracts, electricity sales under power purchase agreements (“PPAs”) and incentive funding. Revenues from power plant sales are recognized proportionally as costs are incurred and assigned to a customer contract by comparing the estimated total manufacture and installation costs for each contract to the total contract value. For contracts under which there are contractual contingencies (e.g. receipt of incentive funding), revenue is deferred until such contingencies are cleared. Revenues from service contracts are generally recognized ratably over the contract. For service contracts that include a fuel cell stack replacement, a portion of the total contract value is recognized as revenue at the time of the stack replacement and the remainder of the contract value is recognized ratably over the contract. Revenues from electricity sales under power purchase agreements are recognized as power is produced. Revenues from incentive funding are recognized ratably over the term of the incentive funding agreement.

As our fuel cell products are in their initial stages of development and market acceptance, actual costs incurred could differ materially from those previously estimated. Once we have established that our fuel cell products have achieved commercial market acceptance and future costs can be reasonably estimated, then estimated costs to complete an individual contract, in excess of revenue, will be accrued immediately upon identification.

Warrant Value Recognition

Warrants have been issued as sales incentives to certain of our distribution partners. These warrants vest as orders from our business partners exceed stipulated levels. Should warrants vest, or when management estimates that it is probable that warrants will vest, we record a proportional amount of the fair value of the warrants against related revenue as a sales discount.

Inventories

During the procurement and manufacturing process of a fuel cell power plant, costs for material, labor and overhead are accumulated in raw materials and work-in-process inventory until they are transferred to a customer contract, at which time they are recorded in cost of sales.

Our inventories and advance payments to vendors are stated at the lower of cost or market (“LCM”) price. As we currently sell products at or below cost, we provide for an LCM adjustment to the cost basis of inventory and advances to vendors. This adjustment is computed by comparing the current sales prices of our power plants to estimated costs of completed power plants. In certain circumstances, for long-lead time items, we will make advance payments to vendors for future inventory deliveries, which are recorded as a component of other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

21

---

As of April 30, 2007 and October 31, 2006, the LCM adjustment to the cost basis of inventory and advance payments to vendors was approximately $14.6 million and $11.3 million, respectively, which equates to a reduction of approximately 40 and 43 percent, respectively, of the gross inventory value. The decline in this LCM percentage is due to a shift in inventory mix to MW-class products, which have a lower cost compared to price. As of April 30, 2007, our gross inventory and advances to vendors’ balances increased from the October 31, 2006 balances, which resulted in higher reserve balances. As inventory levels increase or decrease, appropriate adjustments to the cost basis are made.

Internal Research and Development Expenses

We conduct internally funded research and development activities to improve current or anticipated product performance and reduce product life-cycle costs. These costs include improving manufacturing processes, cost reduction, technology improvement and technology development, as we work to develop new products to meet the needs of customers. These costs are classified as research and development expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

Share-Based Compensation

On November 1, 2005, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123R, “Share-Based Payments” (SFAS 123R). Share-based payment transactions with employees, which primarily consist of stock options, and third parties requires the application of a fair value methodology that involves various assumptions. The fair value of our options awarded to employees is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the following assumptions: expected life of the option, risk-free interest rate, expected volatility of our common stock price and expected dividend yield. We estimate the expected life of the options using historical data and the volatility of our common stock is estimated based on a combination of the historical volatility and the implied volatility from traded options. Share-based compensation of $1.4 million and $2.7 million was recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended April 30, 2007, respectively, compared to $1.0 million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended April 30, 2006, respectively. Refer to Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management evaluates the results of operations and cash flows using a variety of key performance indicators. Indicators that management uses include revenues compared to prior periods and internal forecasts, costs of our products and results of our “cost-out” initiatives and operating cash use. These are discussed throughout the ‘Results of Operations’ and ‘Liquidity and Capital Resources’ sections.

Comparison of Three Months ended April 30, 2007 and April 30, 2006

 

Revenues and costs of revenues

 

The following tables summarize the components of our revenues and cost of revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006 (dollar amounts in thousands), respectively:

 

		Three Months Ended April 30, 2007						Three Months Ended April 30, 2006						Percentage Increase /
Revenues:		Revenues			Percent of Revenues			Revenues			Percent of Revenues			(Decrease) in Revenues
Product sales and revenues		$	8,861			78	%	$	6,487			68	%		37	%
Research and development contracts			2,522			22	%		3,047			32	%		(17	%)
Total		$	11,383			100	%	$	9,534			100	%		19	%

 

		Three Months Ended April 30, 2007						Three Months Ended April 30, 2006						Percentage Increase /
Cost of revenues:		Cost of Revenues			Percent of Cost of Revenues			Cost of Revenues			Percent of Cost of Revenues			(Decrease)  in Cost of Revenues
Product sales and revenues		$	16,394			89	%	$	15,742			85	%		4	%
Research and development contracts			2,096			11	%		2,713			15	%		(23	%)
Total		$	18,490			100	%	$	18,455			100	%		––	%

 

Total revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2007 increased by $1.8 million, or 19 percent, to $11.4 million from $9.5 million during the same period last year.

Product sales and revenues

Product sales and revenue increased $2.4 million to $8.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $6.5 million for the same period in 2006. Revenue during the quarter included approximately $5.3 million of power plant sales, $2.5 million related to service agreements and component sales and approximately $1.0 million of revenue related to power purchase agreements. Higher product sales and revenues was due to an increase in power plant sales, including production of a 1.2 MW unit for Enbridge, Inc., as well as an increase related to service agreements and component sales.

Cost of product sales and revenues increased to $16.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $15.7 million during the same period in 2006. The ratio of product cost to sales was 1.85-to-1 during the second quarter of 2007, compared to 2.43-to-1 during the second quarter of 2006. The cost ratio was favorably impacted in the quarter by the shift to MW production and lower cost sub-MW units as well as higher revenue on component sales.  

As of April 30, 2007, product sales backlog totaled approximately $36.8 million including approximately $12.6 million related to long-term service agreements. This compares to a product sales backlog of $23.9 million including $6.5 million related to long-term service agreements as of April 30, 2006. The increase in product backlog is related to orders from South Korean and California customers.

Our products do not ship on an even production schedule. The shipment date to customers depends on a number of factors that are outside of our control, including siting requirements, timing of construction and permits. We do not have the sales or order history to quantify trends as of yet. We expect to continue to sell our DFC products at prices lower than our production costs until such time as we are able to reduce product costs through our engineering and manufacturing efforts and production volumes increase.

Research and development contracts

Research and development revenue decreased $0.5 million to $2.5 million for the three months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $3.0 million for the same period in 2006. Cost of research and development contracts decreased to $2.1 million during the second quarter of 2007, compared to $2.7 million for 2006, and the cost ratio was essentially flat in both quarters. Research and development contract revenue and costs were primarily related to the DOE’s large-scale SOFC hybrid and Vision 21 programs.

As of April 30, 2007, research and development sales backlog totaled approximately $26.4 million of which Congress has authorized funding of $10.0 million, compared to $9.9 million ($8.6 million funded) as of April 30, 2006. The increase in research and development sales backlog is primarily related to a 10-year U.S. Department of Energy project to develop a solid oxide fuel cell-based, large scale hybrid system which we entered into in 2006.

 

Administrative and selling expenses

Administrative and selling expenses increased $0.1 million to $4.8 million during the three months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $4.7 million in the same period of the prior year. This increase is primarily due to higher stock-based compensation, higher bid and proposal and other marketing activities.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses increased to $6.7 million during the three months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $5.4 million recorded in the same period of the prior year. The increase in the quarter is due to development costs for MW-class cost reduction efforts and costs related to our efforts to extend stack life from the current three years to five years and longer. 

Loss from operations

Loss from operations for the three months ended April 30, 2007 totaling $18.5 million, compared to $19.0 million recorded in the comparable period last year. The decrease in the loss from operations is due primarily to higher margins on product sales resulting from the shift to MW-class production and lower cost sub-MW units, partially offset by higher research and development expenses discussed above.

Loss from equity investments

Our investment in Versa totaled approximately $10.9 million and $11.5 million as of April 30, 2007 and October 31, 2006, respectively. Our ownership interest at April 30, 2007 was 39% and we account for Versa under the equity method of accounting. Our share of equity losses for the three months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006 were $0.4 million and $0.2 million.

Interest and other income, net

Interest and other income, net, was $1.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2006. Interest income increased due to higher yields on lower average invested balances.

 

Provision for income taxes

We believe that due to our efforts to commercialize our DFC products, we will continue to incur losses. Based on projections for future taxable income over the period in which the deferred tax assets are realizable, management believes that significant uncertainty exists surrounding the recoverability of the deferred tax assets. Therefore, no tax benefit has been recognized related to current or prior year losses and other deferred tax assets.

Comparison of Six Months ended April 30, 2007 and April 30, 2006

 

Revenues and costs of revenues

 

The following tables summarize the components of our revenues and cost of revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006 (dollar amounts in thousands), respectively:

 

		Six Months Ended April 30, 2007						Six Months Ended April 30, 2006						Percentage Increase /
Revenues:		Revenues			Percent of Revenues			Revenues			Percent of Revenues			(Decrease) in Revenues
Product sales and revenues		$	13,760			76	%	$	9,487			61	%		45	%
Research and development contracts			4,457			24	%		5,991			39	%		(26	%)
Total		$	18,217			100	%	$	15,478			100	%		18	%

 

		Six Months Ended April 30, 2007						Six Months Ended April 30, 2006						Percentage Increase /
Cost of revenues:		Cost of Revenues			Percent of Cost of Revenues			Cost of Revenues			Percent of Cost of Revenues			(Decrease)  in Cost of Revenues
Product sales and revenues		$	29,776			88	%	$	25,092			82	%		19	%
Research and development contracts			4,040			12	%		5,636			18	%		(28	%)
Total		$	33,816			100	%	$	30,728			100	%		10	%

 

Total revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2007 increased by $2.7 million, or 18 percent, to $18.2 million from $15.5 million during the same period last year.

Product sales and revenues

Product sales and revenue increased $4.3 million to $13.8 million for the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $9.5 million for the same period in 2006. Revenue during the quarter included approximately $8.0 million of power plant sales, $3.5 million related to service agreements and component sales and approximately $2.3 million of revenue related to power purchase agreements. Higher product sales and revenues was due to an increase in power plant sales, including production of a 1 MW unit for Enbridge, Inc., as well as an increase in revenues from service agreements and power purchase agreements.

Cost of product sales and revenues increased to $29.8 million for the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $25.1 million during the same period in 2006. The ratio of product cost to sales was 2.2-to-1 during the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to 2.6-to-1 during the same period a year ago. The cost ratio was favorably impacted in the quarter by the shift to MW production and lower cost sub-MW units, partially offset by higher service agreement costs.  

Research and development contracts

Research and development revenue decreased $1.5 million to $4.5 million for the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $6.0 million for the same period in 2006. Cost of research and development contracts decreased to $4.0 million during the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $5.6 million for 2006, and the cost ratio was essentially flat in both quarters. Research and development contract revenue and costs were primarily related to the DOE’s large-scale SOFC hybrid and Vision 21 programs.

Administrative and selling expenses

Administrative and selling expenses increased $0.3 million to $9.2 million during the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $8.9 million in the same period of the prior year. This increase is primarily due to higher stock-based compensation, higher bid and proposal and other marketing activities.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses increased to $13.5 million during the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $11.3 million recorded in the same period of the prior year. The increase in the quarter is due to development costs for MW-class cost reduction efforts and costs related to our efforts to extend stack life from the current three years to five years and longer. 

Loss from operations

Loss from operations for the six months ended April 30, 2007 totaled $38.3 million, compared to $35.4 million recorded in the comparable period last year. The increase in the loss from operations is due primarily to higher research and development expenses and higher service agreement costs, partially offset by the favorable impact from the shift to MW-class production and lower cost sub-MW units.

Loss from equity investments

Our investment in Versa totaled approximately $10.9 million and $11.5 million as of April 30, 2007 and October 31, 2006, respectively. Our ownership interest at April 30, 2007 was 39% and we account for Versa under the equity method of accounting. Our share of equity losses for the six months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006 were $0.6 million and $0.4 million.

Interest and other income, net

Interest and other income, net, was $2.5 million for the six months ended April 30, 2007, compared to $2.8 million for the same period in 2006. Interest income decreased due to lower average invested balances.

 

Provision for income taxes

We believe that due to our efforts to commercialize our DFC products, we will continue to incur losses. Based on projections for future taxable income over the period in which the deferred tax assets are realizable, management believes that significant uncertainty exists surrounding the recoverability of the deferred tax assets. Therefore, no tax benefit has been recognized related to current or prior year losses and other deferred tax assets.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had approximately $178.7 million of cash, cash equivalents and investments as of April 30, 2007, compared to $120.6 million as of October 31, 2006. During the six months ended April 30, 2007, we sold shares of our common stock to POSCO for $29.0 million, completed a public offering with net proceeds of $65.4 million and sold shares on the open market for $1.1 million. Excluding these stock sales, cash and investments used during the six months ended April 30, 2007 include dividend payments on our preferred stock of $1.9 million, partially offset by proceeds of $2.2 million from the sale of a power plant being used to service a power purchase agreement (includes $0.4 million from the sale of a long-term service agreement on this power plant), receipt of incentive funds related to our power purchase agreements of $1.5 million and proceeds from common stock issued for benefit plans of $1.8 million.

Cash Inflows and Outflows

Cash and cash equivalents as of April 30, 2007 totaled $107.3 million, reflecting an increase of $81.0 million from the balance reported as of October 31, 2006. The key components of our cash inflows and outflows from continuing operations were as follows:

Operating Activities: During the six months ended April 30, 2007, we used $35.1 million in cash for operating activities, compared to operating cash usage of $24.3 million during the comparable period of 2006. Cash used in operating activities during the first six months of fiscal 2007 consists of a net loss for the period of approximately $37.2 million, offset by non-cash adjustments totaling $8.5 million, including $2.7 million of share-based compensation and depreciation expense of $4.7 million.

In addition, cash used in working capital totaled approximately $6.4 million, including higher net inventories of approximately $2.6 million due to higher production levels and lower accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.3 million due to timing of production and vendor payments during the quarter. These amounts were partially offset by higher accounts receivable of $1.1 million due to the timing of production and shipping milestones and higher deferred revenue and customer deposits of $2.2 million.

Investing Activities: During the six months ended April 30, 2007, net cash provided by investing activities totaled $20.6 million, compared with approximately $29.0 million in the comparable period of 2006. Capital expenditures totaled $2.7 million for 2007 and approximately $54.0 million of investments in U.S. Treasury Securities matured and new treasury purchases totaled $30.7 million during the first six months of fiscal 2007.

Financing Activities: During the six months ended April 30, 2007, net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $95.5 million, compared to $1.8 million in 2006. The first six months of fiscal 2007 included $95.5 million from the sale of common stock, $1.8 million from common stock issued for benefit plans and $0.1 million from proceeds, net of repayments, on debt. This was partially offset by $1.9 million for the payment of dividends on preferred stock.

Sources and Uses of Cash and Investments

We continue to invest in new product development and bringing our products to market and, as such, we are not currently generating positive cash flow from our operations.  Our operations are funded primarily through sales of equity securities and cash generated from customer contracts, including cash from government research and development contracts, product sales, power purchase agreements and incentive funding and interest earned on investments. Our future cash requirements depend on numerous factors including future involvement in research and development contracts, implementing our cost reduction efforts and increasing annual order volume.

Future involvement in research and development contracts

Our research and development contracts are generally multi-year, cost reimbursement type contracts.  The majority of these are U.S. Government contracts that are dependent upon the government’s continued allocation of funds and may be terminated in whole or in part at the convenience of the government. We will continue to seek research and development contracts. To obtain these contracts, we must continue to prove the benefits of our technologies and be successful in our competitive bidding.

Implementing cost reduction efforts on our fuel cell products 

Cost reduction is critical to attaining profitability in future periods and is essential for us to penetrate the market for our fuel cell products. Cost reductions will reduce and/or eliminate the need for incentive funding programs that are currently available to allow our product pricing to better compete with grid-delivered power and other distributed generation technologies. Our multi-disciplined cost reduction program focuses on value engineering, manufacturing process improvements, and technology improvements to increase power plant output and efficiency.

Our 2 MW Santa Clara ‘proof-of-concept’ project in 1996-1997 cost more than $20,000/kW to produce. In 2003, we shipped our first commercial product, a DFC300 to the Kirin Brewery which cost more than $10,000/kW. At that time, we implemented our commercial cost-out program hiring additional engineers who focused on reducing the total life cycle costs of our power plants. Since 2003, we have made significant progress primarily through value engineering our products and increasing the power output by 20%. We entered fiscal 2007 with a current manufactured cost of approximately $3,250 /kW on our multi-MW power plant, $4,300/kW on our MW plant and $4,800/kW for the sub-MW product. In the second quarter, we achieved lower costs through our cost out program resulting in a product cost-to-revenue ratio of 1.85 to 1 - the lowest since we began shipping commercial power plants in 2003. To date, the primary drivers have been value engineering and technology development.

With the multi-MW order potential of Asia, Connecticut and California, our DFC 3000, 2.4 MW product is expected to become gross margin profitable with volume. This will come through supply chain efficiencies, purchasing power and process improvements. To drive costs lower, our 2007 cost out program is focused on global sourcing, technology development, continued value engineering and manufacturing efficiencies.

Increasing annual order volume

In addition to the cost reduction initiatives discussed above, we need to increase annual order volume. Increased production volumes are necessary to lower costs by leveraging supplier/purchasing opportunities, incorporating manufacturing process improvements and spreading fixed costs over higher units of production. Our manufacturing and conditioning facilities have the equipment in place to accommodate 50 MW of annual production volume, but the higher production volume will require increasing the manufacturing workforce.

As of April 30, 2007, we had 9.35 MW in backlog. We see near term opportunities for increased order volume in our key markets, including California, Connecticut and Asia. California is a leading market for our renewable, ultra-clean products with approximately 30% of our installed capacity at April 30, 2007 in California and the state has made available approximately $80 million of funding in 2007. In Connecticut, our fuel cells are incorporated into 68 MW of large-scale multi-MW projects that have been recommended by the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund for development under Connecticut’s RPS Program, Project 100. In Asia, the South Korean government has initiated a subsidy program with initial subsidies ranging from $0.23 to 0.28/kilowatt hour (kWh). This program was put in place to encourage utilities to buy highly efficient, ultra-clean, low-emission, fuel cell-produced electricity, thus helping the country to meet its carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction and clean air goals. In February, FuelCell Energy announced that it had signed a 10-year manufacturing and distribution agreement with POSCO Power. We expect that this partnership will allow us to capture significant opportunities in the South Korean market.

With our currently achieved and projected annual cost reduction targets, we believe we can reach gross margin break-even on product sales at a sustained annual order and production volume of approximately 35 MW to 50 MW, depending on product mix, geographic location and other variables such as fuel prices. We believe that the Company net income break-even can be achieved at a sustained annual order and volume production of approximately 75-100 MW assuming a mix of sub-MW and MW sales. If this mix trends more toward MW and multi-MW orders, we believe that the gross margin and net income break-even volumes can be lower.

Our fiscal 2006 production volume was approximately 9 MW. Our current production volume is 10 MW. Depending on customer demand and emergence of the RPS market, our production rates will be adjusted accordingly.

We anticipate that our existing capital resources, together with anticipated revenues will be adequate to satisfy our planned financial requirements and agreements through at least the next twelve months.

Commitments and Significant Contractual Obligations

 

A summary of our significant future commitments and contractual obligations as of April 30, 2007 and the related payments by fiscal year is summarized as follows (in thousands):

		Payments Due by Period
Contractual Obligation:		Total			Less  than 1 Year			1 - 3 Years			3 - 5 Years			More than 5 Years
Lease commitments (1)		$	2,703		$	849		$	1,512		$	342		$	—
Term loans (principal and interest)			1,050			957			93			—			—
Purchase commitments(2)			26,683			23,828			2,855			—			—
Series I Preferred dividends payable (3)			19,392			379			9,543			1,894			7,576
Series B Preferred dividends payable (4)			8,861			3,206			5,655			—			—
Totals		$	58,689		$	29,219		$	19,658		$	2,236		$	7,576

 

(1)	Future minimum lease payments on operating and capital leases.

(2)	Purchase commitments with suppliers for materials, supplies, and services incurred in the normal course of business.

(3)

Quarterly dividends of Cdn.$312,500 accrue on the Series 1 preferred shares (subject to possible reduction pursuant to the terms of the Series 1 preferred shares on account of increases in the price of our common stock). We have agreed to pay a minimum of Cdn.$500,000 in cash or common stock annually to Enbridge, Inc., the holder of the Series 1 preferred shares, so long as Enbridge holds the shares. Interest accrues on cumulative unpaid dividends at a 2.45 percent quarterly rate, compounded quarterly, until payment thereof. Cumulative unpaid dividends and interest at April 30, 2007 were approximately $5.7 million. For the purposes of this disclosure, we have assumed that the minimum dividend payments would be made through 2010. In 2010, we would be required to pay any unpaid and accrued dividends. Subsequent to 2010, we would be required to pay annual dividend amounts totaling Cdn.$1.25 million. We have the option of paying these dividends in stock or cash.

(4)	Dividends on Series B Preferred Stock accrue at an annual rate of 5% paid quarterly. The obligations schedule assumes we will pay preferred dividends on these shares through November 20, 2009, at which time the preferred shares may be subject to mandatory conversion at the option of the Company.

Approximately $6.7 million of our cash and cash equivalents have been pledged as collateral and letters of credit for certain banking relationships and customer contracts in which we participate. Approximately $6.0 million of this collateral supports letters of credit, which have expiration dates on or before December 31, 2007.

Research and development cost-share contracts

We have contracted with various government agencies as either a prime contractor or sub-contractor on cost-share contracts and agreements. Cost-share terms require that participating contractors share the total cost of the project based on an agreed upon ratio with the government agency. As of April 30, 2007, our research and development sales backlog totaled $26.4 million. As this backlog is funded in future periods, we will incur additional research and development cost-share totaling approximately $16.6 million for which we would not be reimbursed by the government.

Product sales contracts

Our fuel cell power plant products are in the initial stages of development and market acceptance. As such, costs to manufacture and install our products exceed current market prices. As of April 30, 2007, we had product sales backlog of approximately $24.2 million. We do not expect sales from this backlog to be profitable.

Long-term service agreements

We have contracted with certain customers to provide service for fuel cell power plants ranging from one to thirteen years. Under the provisions of these contracts, we provide services to maintain, monitor and repair customer power plants. In some contracts we will provide for replacement of fuel cell stacks. Pricing for service contracts is based upon estimates of future costs, which given our products’ early stage of development could be materially different from actual expenses. As of April 30, 2007, we had a service agreement sales backlog of approximately $12.6 million.

Power purchase agreements

Under the terms of our PPAs, customers agree to purchase power from our fuel cell power plants at negotiated rates, generally for periods of five to ten years. Electricity rates are generally a function of the customer’s current and future electricity pricing available from the grid. Revenues are earned and collected under these PPAs as power is produced. As owner of the power plants in these PPA entities, we are responsible for all operating costs necessary to maintain, monitor and repair the power plants. Under certain agreements, we are also responsible for procuring fuel, generally natural gas, to run the power plants. We believe that the assets, including fuel cell power plants in these PPA entities, are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets based on our estimates of future revenues and expenses. Should actual results differ from our estimates, our results of operations could be negatively impacted. We are not required to produce minimum amounts of power under our PPA agreements and we have the right to terminate PPA agreements by giving written notice to the customer, subject to certain exit costs.

We have qualified for incentive funding for these projects in California under the state’s Self-Generation Incentive Funding Program and from other government programs. Funds are payable upon commercial installation and demonstration of the plant and may require return of the funds for failure to meet certain performance requirements. Revenue related to these incentive funds is recognized ratably over the performance period. As of April 30, 2007 we had deferred revenue totaling $7.3 million on the consolidated balance sheet related to incentive funding received on PPAs.

In December 2006, we completed the sale of the 1 MW power plant that had been operating under a power purchase agreement to the Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. As of April 30, 2007, we were operating 3 MW of power plants under power purchase agreements ranging from 5 to 10 years.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertain Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 16, 2006 (beginning of our fiscal 2008 or November 1, 2007). The Company is currently evaluating FIN 48 and we do not anticipate that it will have a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption due to the Company’s current income tax position.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Exposure

Our exposures to market risk for changes in interest rates relate primarily to our investment portfolio and long term debt obligations. Our investment portfolio includes both short-term United States treasury instruments with maturities averaging three months or less, as well as U.S. treasury notes with fixed interest rates with maturities of up to twenty months. Cash is invested overnight with high credit quality financial institutions. Based on our overall interest exposure at April 30, 2007, including all interest rate sensitive instruments, a near-term change in interest rate movements of 1 percent would affect our results of operations by approximately $1.1 million annually.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

With our Canadian business entity, FuelCell Energy, Ltd., we are subject to foreign exchange risk, although we have taken steps to mitigate those risks where possible. As of April 30, 2007, approximately $0.5 million (less than one percent) of our total cash, cash equivalents and investments was in currencies other than U.S. dollars. The functional currency of FuelCell Energy, Ltd. is the U.S. dollar.

Although we have not experienced significant foreign exchange rate losses to date, we may in the future, especially to the extent that we do not engage in currency hedging activities. The economic impact of currency exchange rate movements on our operating results is complex because such changes are often linked to variability in real growth, inflation, interest rates, governmental actions and other factors. These changes, if material, may cause us to adjust our financing and operating strategies. Consequently, isolating the effect of changes in currency does not incorporate these other important economic factors.

Derivative Fair Value Exposure

We have determined that our Series 1 Preferred shares include embedded derivatives that require bifurcation from the host contract and separate accounting in accordance with SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Specifically, the embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation from the host contract are the conversion feature of the security and the variable dividend obligation. The aggregate fair value of these derivatives included within Long-term debt and other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of April 30, 2007 was $0.3 million. The fair value of these derivatives is based on valuation models using various assumptions including historical stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and a credit spread based on the yield indexes of technology high yield bonds, foreign exchange volatility as the Series 1 Preferred security is denominated in Canadian dollars, and the closing price of our common stock. Changes in any of these assumptions will result in fluctuations in the derivative value and will impact the consolidated statement of operations. For example, a 25% increase from the closing price of our common stock at April 30, 2007 would result in an increase in the fair value of these derivatives and a charge to the consolidated statement of operations of approximately $0.1 million, assuming all other assumptions remain the same.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
