Fluence Energy Announces Revised Guidance for Fiscal Year 2026; Management to Host Conference Call at 5PM Eastern Time Today
Fluence Energy revised its fiscal 2026 expectations, citing continuing supply-chain issues affecting U.S. production. The update puts execution and near-term margin risk back at the center of the FLNC setup ahead of management’s conference call.
Fluence Energy said on Sept. 16 that it had updated its fiscal 2026 expectations, attributing the change largely to continuing supply-chain issues affecting its U.S. production. The company did not disclose the revised figures in the announcement excerpt, but said management would host a conference call at 5 p.m. Eastern time the same day.
The update follows a difficult prior fiscal year: Fluence reported fiscal 2025 revenue of $2.3B, down 16.1% year over year, with a 13.1% gross margin, a -2.1% net margin and diluted EPS of $-0.37. The new guidance change therefore lands against an existing record of declining revenue and bottom-line losses rather than a clean execution cycle.
The direct exposure is Fluence’s U.S. production operation, where supply-chain disruption can delay deliveries, defer revenue recognition and pressure project economics. Those effects matter across the company’s energy-storage and related services and software activities, although the announcement did not specify which fiscal 2026 line items or assumptions were changed.
The company’s attribution to supply-chain issues is management’s explanation, not a quantified independent assessment. GlobeNewswire’s announcement did not say how much guidance changed, which components are constrained, how long the disruption is expected to last, or whether the issue is isolated to U.S. production.
The immediate information point is management’s 5 p.m. Eastern conference call on Sept. 16. Investors will need the revised fiscal 2026 revenue, margin, earnings and cash-flow assumptions, together with the expected duration of the production disruption, to determine whether this is a timing setback or a broader reset of Fluence’s operating outlook.
The guidance reset moves the near-term risk to the downside for FLNC as supply-chain disruption hits U.S. production against a loss-making prior fiscal year.
The implication is a higher execution and margin-risk premium for FLNC: U.S. production disruption is forcing a fiscal 2026 guidance revision, while fiscal 2025 already showed revenue of $2.3B declining 16.1% and diluted EPS of $-0.37. The missing revised figures prevent a quantified directional call, making management’s 5 p.m. Eastern conference call the key test of the reset’s size and duration.
A limited or temporary guidance reduction, with management reaffirming demand and project economics on the conference call, would weaken the downside read.

The disruption may be temporary, and Fluence’s fiscal 2026 outlook could stabilize if management identifies a contained production bottleneck on the 5 p.m. Eastern call.
The stronger opposing case is that continuing U.S. supply-chain issues are worsening an already weak operating profile, with fiscal 2025 revenue down 16.1% and diluted EPS of $-0.37.
