Brenmiller Energy CEO Provides Update On Milestones Powering Progress
ROSH HA'AYIN, IL / ACCESS Newswire / June 5, 2025 / Brenmiller Energy Ltd. ("Brenmiller", "Brenmiller Energy" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:BNRG), a leading global provider of Thermal Energy Storage ("TES") solutions for industrial and utility customers,today issued a shareholder update from its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Avi Brenmiller.
Dear Brenmiller Energy Investors,
I want to take a moment to share meaningful updates from across our Company-developments that reflect both execution in the present and strategic positioning for the future.
Most notably, that the European Hydrogen Bank has granted SolWinHy Cádiz S.L. (the "SolWinHy Project") in Arcos de la Frontera, Spain, €25 million in funding. SolWinHy is a special purpose company jointly owned by leading renewable energy developers Green Enesys Group ("Green Enesys") and Viridi RE ("Viridi") to build new green hydrogen and green e-methanol projects in Europe. Green Enesys and Viridi are Brenmiller's joint venture partners in Brenmiller Europe S.L. ("Brenmiller Europe"). We estimate our supply of the bGen™ TES system for the SolWinHy Project to be approximately €7 million. We believe that our involvement with the SolWinHy Project reinforces the strength of our bGen™ technology and our role in enabling renewable fuel production at scale. It's a major milestone and a testament to the commercial scale of our thermal energy storage solutions.
Looking ahead, we're also preparing to accrue the next milestone in our project with Tempo Beverages Ltd. ("Tempo") in July 2025. This project represents a powerful application of our bGen™ system, delivering behind-the-meter energy savings in a commercial manufacturing environment. We believe the market will recognize the value of this milestone-not just for what it proves technically, but for what it unlocks strategically.
Beyond this, we're seeing a new opportunity emerge that could define the next phase of our growth: nuclear energy as the solution for AI and data centers that are expected to create a surge in energy demand.
At the end of May, CNBC reported that some countries in Europe are beginning to re-embrace nuclear power as a means of boosting energy independence and decarbonizing at scale. Denmark is even rethinking its 40-year nuclear ban. This shift creates a unique opening for our technology. Nuclear reactors, while reliable for baseload generation, lack the flexibility to meet dynamic grid demands-precisely the gap our thermal storage was designed to fill. The U.S. is following suit. New executive orders from the Trump Administration have fast-tracked small modular reactors (SMRs) and aim to significantly reform the U.S. nuclear industry.
That conviction was echoed again just days ago when Meta signed a 20-year agreement with Constellation Energy to purchase 1.1 gigawatts of nuclear power from the Clinton Clean Energy Center in Illinois. Without Meta's commitment, the plant faced premature closure. Now, not only will the site remain operational, it will expand.
This is more than a high-profile energy deal, we believe that it is an indication that nuclear power is being called upon to fuel the next generation of computing and AI infrastructure-but it can't do it alone. It needs flexibility. It needs storage. It needs solutions like ours.
We believe that our TES technology is uniquely suited to complement nuclear by enabling load-following capabilities, balancing output, and enhancing overall grid responsiveness. As the demand curve changes and data center operators push for 24/7 clean energy with real-time control, we believe our technology becomes not just valuable-but essential.
Further, we believe our system, as configured for ENEL at its combined cycle power plant in Santa Barbara, Italy, is already a near-perfect fit for this application, positioning Brenmiller to be part of this nuclear resurgence.
We also recognize the broader market environment remains volatile, especially for small-cap companies. We're taking action accordingly: tightening costs, streamlining operations across our subsidiaries, and staying focused on efficiency. These moves aren't just defensive-they're strategic steps to strengthen our core and prepare for scalable growth.
In parallel, we're actively exploring near-term opportunities to enhance value creation-this includes unlocking potential licensing revenues with our IP portfolio.
To those of you who've stayed with us: thank you. Your continued trust fuels our determination. We're executing with clarity and focus-and the momentum building behind clean hydrogen, flexible nuclear applications, and on-site industrial energy savings only adds to our conviction.
Sincerely,
Avi Brenmiller, CEOBrenmiller Energy Ltd.

Better Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock: CoreWeave vs. Nvidia
CoreWeave has made a splash in the market as it quickly grows its cloud services business. Nvidia is proving its AI lineup of products is becoming more and more pervasive. CoreWeave is valued at a high multiple and has massive capital spending planned. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › There will prove to be many winners as artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure continues to grow and AI end-uses expand. Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has been the Wall Street darling surrounding everything AI for the past two years. CoreWeave (NASDAQ: CRWV) has been getting the love most recently, though. Shares of the AI hyperscaler providing cloud services have soared about 185% in just the past month as of this writing. Nvidia stock has increased 24% in that time. CoreWeave just went public in late March, and the shares have jumped about 270% since that initial public offering (IPO). Investors may wonder if Nvidia's shine is fading, and it's time to buy CoreWeave instead. I'd argue that is flawed thinking, however. Investors may be taking a breather after the early exponential gains in Nvidia stock. Growth in the business itself has also slowed, though that was inevitable. Sales of its advanced chips in the data center segment had been growing like a weed. Revenue in that segment has been increasing in each consecutive quarter for the last two years. In the most recent fiscal quarter, that growth rate slowed to 10%, though, as seen below. Despite that trend, it's clear AI demand hasn't yet peaked. Remember, these are still sequential quarterly increases in data center sales. For perspective, that fiscal first-quarter revenue was a 73% jump compared to the prior year period. Management also guided investors to expect further revenue growth in the current quarter. So, while an unsustainable growth rate slows, the company is still solidly in growth mode. That's because it's not just Nvidia's advanced GPU and CPU chips driving sales and expanding AI infrastructure. Its AI ecosystem includes interconnect technologies, the CUDA (compute unified device architecture) software platform, and artificial intelligence processors that are part of many different types of architectures. CEO Jensen Huang recently touted Nintendo's new Switch 2 gaming console, for example. The unit includes Nvidia's AI processors that Huang claims "sharpen, animate, and enhance gameplay in real time." Nvidia has a broad array of customers. As AI factories and data centers are built, it will continue to be a major supplier and one that investors should benefit from owning. Nvidia also invests in the AI sector. It makes sense to look at where the AI leader itself sees future gains. One of the AI companies in which Nvidia holds a stake is CoreWeave. Nvidia should know CoreWeave well, too, as an important customer. CoreWeave leases data center space to companies needing the scalable, on-demand compute power it has control of from the 250,000 Nvidia chips it has purchased. It's a desirable option for enterprises that require significant computational power to process large amounts of data efficiently. There appears to be plenty of demand. But there is plenty of risk for investors, too. It just announced a new lease agreement to further increase capacity. Applied Digital, a builder and operator of purpose-built data centers, has agreed to deliver CoreWeave 250 megawatts (MW) of power load on a 15-year term lease at its recently built North Dakota data center campus. CoreWeave has the option to expand the load by an additional 150 MW in the future. Demand is quickly driving growth for CoreWeave. That's led investors to jump in and drive the stock higher in recent months. Valuation is just one major risk with CoreWeave. Customer concentration is another. Last year, Microsoft accounted for nearly two-thirds of revenue. CoreWeave also disclosed that 77% of 2024 revenue came from just its top two customers. CoreWeave is also spending massive amounts of capital to grow AI cloud capacity. It had about $5.4 billion of liquidity available as of March 31 and raised another $2 billion from a late May debt offering. That's approximately its level of capital expenditure in just the first quarter alone, though. That spending may pay off. But there are risks there as well. Customers could develop their own AI infrastructure or could redesign systems that don't require its services. CoreWeave stock also trades at a high valuation after the stock has soared. It recently had a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of about 30. That could be cut in half this year with its strong sales growth, but it isn't earning any money yet. At the same time, Nvidia sports a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of about 30 based on this year's expected profits. Remember, too, that as CoreWeave grows, so do Nvidia's profits. Applied Digital CEO Wes Cummins said that its leased North Dakota data center campus will be full of Nvidia Blackwell class servers. I think the risk profile, financial picture, and massive potential for Nvidia make it the better AI stock to buy now.

Could Buying Tesla Stock Today Set You Up for Life?
Most of the value in Tesla lies in its robotaxi and full self-driving offerings. The company starts with a significant advantage over its competition, and is about to launch its robotaxi concept. Tesla is a speculative growth stock, but it has numerous advantages over the typical growth stock. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › For many investors, buying Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has already set them up for life, but will that be true for anyone newly buying into the stock now? Here's a look at what you need to know before buying the stock. Tesla is an unusual stock, known to most investors primarily as the leading electric vehicle (EV) company, but that isn't the primary value driver of the stock. Indeed, if you look at Tesla solely as a car company, you would likely avoid the stock. Let's put it this way: Tesla currently trades at a price-to-earnings multiple of 192, compared to single-digit multiples at car companies like Ford Motor Company and General Motors. The valuation discrepancy doesn't stem from Tesla's superior profit margins or its leading position in the electric vehicle market. Instead, it comes down to Tesla being able to do something that rival car companies haven't yet done or have abandoned trying to do: launch a robotaxi service. General Motors has already abandoned robotaxi development, and Ford (which had planned to have a robotaxi service in place by 2021) ended its investment (alongside Volkswagen) in robotaxi company Argo AI in 2022. Volkswagen plans to launch its robotaxi service in 2026. So, if Tesla's valuation isn't justified in terms of being a highly successful electric vehicle company, then how should it be viewed? The following key points apply, and they make Tesla a highly attractive stock for the speculative end of your portfolio: The value in Tesla lies in its robotaxi business; this is not purely a car company stock, or even an electric vehicle stock, and its valuation reflects that. The reliance on robotaxi/full self-driving (FSD) makes it a speculative growth stock. Tesla's installed base of vehicles gives it significant advantages over Waymo and others. Tesla is not your average speculative growth stock; it holds significant advantages over typical growth stocks. The robotaxi concept and the FSD that powers it are potentially a huge earnings driver for Tesla. One of Tesla's most vocal and visible supporters, Cathie Wood's Ark Invest, which expected a valuation of $2,600 per share for Tesla in 2029, relies on a model that prescribes 88% of the company's value from robotaxis, compared to just 9% from EVs. The opportunity to earn recurring revenue from selling unsupervised FSD subscriptions to Tesla owners wanting to use their vehicles as robotaxis is massive, as is the potential to generate recurring revenue on a ride-per-mile basis from robotaxis. Moreover, Tesla plans to mass-produce its dedicated robotaxi vehicle, Cybercab, next year. That said, the robotaxi launch hasn't even taken place yet (it's scheduled for June 12 in Austin), and it will only be on a small scale initially. As such, Tesla is a speculative growth stock, an observation that suggests Tesla stock should be filed on a long list of highly speculative investments to consider on a rainy day. However, there are differences -- in fact, many differences -- between Tesla and typical growth stocks. First, speculative growth stocks are usually not established leaders in the core business that underpins their growth. The Model Y is not only the best-selling electric vehicle (EV) in the world, but it's also the best-selling car in the world. In other words, Tesla already has a compelling brand and is the market leader in the growth area of the auto market. Second, this is not a struggling small-cap stock desperately trying to establish brand recognition and promote its new technology to a sceptical marketplace. Waymo has offered a robotaxi service since 2018, and there is little doubt that consumers want to use robotaxis. Third, Tesla isn't a growth stock struggling with its finances and seeking a larger partner to invest, which would dilute existing shareholders' claims on future cash flows. A quick look at its most recent balance sheet reveals $37 billion in cash and equivalents, alongside $7.5 billion in debt and finance leases, resulting in a net cash position of $29.5 billion. Finally, Tesla's position as a cost-effective automaker with the capacity and scale to ramp up production and the vehicles on the road means it can produce robotaxis (whether Cybercab or existing Tesla models) to support growth, and it has a vast bank of data from Tesla vehicles to use to improve its FSD capability. All told, Tesla is speculative because its robotaxis haven't even been launched yet, there's a lot more certainty around the company than in most growth stocks. That makes it worth buying for the risk-seeking end of a portfolio. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $367,516!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $38,712!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $669,517!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join , and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.*Stock Advisor returns as of June 2, 2025 Lee Samaha has no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

Upcoming Stock Splits This Week (June 9 to June 13)
These are the upcoming stock splits for the week of June 9 to June 13, based on TipRanks' Stock Splits Calendar. A stock split is a corporate maneuver that increases the number of shares outstanding by issuing more shares to existing holders, all while keeping the company's total market value unchanged. This lowers the price per share, often making the stock more affordable and potentially more appealing to retail investors. Confident Investing Starts Here: In contrast, a reverse stock split reduces the number of shares by consolidating them, which raises the price per share without affecting the company's valuation. Companies typically turn to this strategy to meet stock exchange requirements – like Nasdaq's minimum price threshold – and avoid delisting. Whether intended to boost investor interest or maintain compliance with exchange rules, these adjustments often serve as key signals for traders tracking a company's strategic direction. Let's take a look at the upcoming stock splits for the week. Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR) – Nektar Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company developing novel drug candidates. Following stockholder approval on May 23, the company formalized a 1-for-15 reverse stock split. The split takes effect on June 8, with trading on a split‑adjusted basis beginning June 9. Fangdd Network Group (DUO) – China-based Fangdd is a technology-driven real estate platform. The company confirmed a 16-for-1 reverse share consolidation, effective June 9, aimed at boosting its share price and maintaining compliance with listing standards. Bone Biologics (BBLG) – Bone Biologics develops orthobiologic products for spinal fusion procedures. After gaining shareholder approval on May 30, the company filed for a 1-for-6 reverse stock split, which takes effect on June 10. The goal is to elevate its share price back into compliance with Nasdaq's minimum pricing rules and enhance its appeal to institutional investors. Cero Therapeutics Holdings (CERO) – Cero Therapeutics is a biotech firm developing engineered T-cell immunotherapies for cancer. Following shareholder approval in November and board action on December 25, it enacted a 1-for-100 reverse stock split effective on January 8, consolidating every 100 shares into one. The move aimed to boost the stock above $1.00 and secure compliance with Nasdaq's listing standards. Inuvo, Inc. (INUV) – Inuvo specializes in AI-powered marketing technologies and is gearing up for a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on June 10. The move is designed to lift its share price, restore Nasdaq compliance, and strengthen its financial foundation for future growth. O'Reilly Automotive (ORLY) – O'Reilly Automotive is a specialty retailer of automotive aftermarket parts and accessories. On March 13, the company declared a 15-for-1 forward stock split, with the distribution of additional shares set for June 9 and split-adjusted trading beginning June 10. SaverOne 2014 (SVRE) – Israel-based SaverOne develops driver safety systems that block mobile-device distractions in vehicles. The company executed a 1-for-3 reverse ADS split, effective June 11, adjusting its American Depositary Share ratio to strengthen its Nasdaq standing and enhance market appeal. China Natural Resources, Inc. (CHNR) – China Natural Resources is focused on mining exploration in Inner Mongolia and is working toward picking up Zimbabwe's Williams Minerals lithium mine for up to $1.75 billion. The company executed an 8-for-1 reverse stock split effective June 12 to meet Nasdaq's $1 minimum bid price requirement, converting every eight shares into one to boost its per-share value and comply with listing rules
