Bloom, a developer of cutting-edge fuel cell products, posted its third-quarter results on Tuesday. The company didn't hesitate to say that with its $519 million on the top line -- 57% higher year over year, by the way -- it notched its fourth straight all-time high revenue figure.

Net income not according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) also saw a supercharged leap, rising by 60% to exceed $34 million.
On average, analysts were collectively modeling only $428 million on the top line, and $0.10 per share for non-GAAP (adjusted) net income.
Inspired by that over-performance, analysts tracking Bloom wasted little time making bullish adjustments to their takes. Among the Bloom-watchers raising their price targets were Morgan Stanley, Mizuho, and HSBC.
Bloom also had news to report in the financing sphere. On Thursday, it divulged that it intended to float a $1.75 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes bearing interest of 0% and maturing on Nov. 15, 2030. The notes will be convertible into its class A stock, cash, or a mix of both, although it hasn't published any details yet.
Bloom said it would use its proceeds from the issue for "general corporate purposes," which include the support of research and development and its manufacturing efforts.
