The Quality factor evaluates the persistence and magnitude of realized cash flows. Companies with scores >70 exhibit superior pricing power and structural financial resilience through diverse economic regimes.
Our uncertainty rating tracks the predictability of future cash flows and potential for permanent capital loss. Moderate visibility with standard industry cyclicality.
Fusion Fuel Green PLC receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 40.0/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #3533 out of 7,333 stocks. HTOO's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
HTOO's quality score of 26/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of -476.9% (sector avg: -2.5%), gross margins of 20.4% (sector avg: 42.5%), net margins of -712.3% (sector avg: -0.2%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
HTOO registers a value score of just 3/100, suggesting the stock trades at a significant premium to its fundamental metrics. Key valuation metrics include a P/B ratio of 0.63x. High-premium valuations like this require strong future execution to avoid multiple compression, and downside risk is elevated if growth disappoints.
With an investment score of 53/100, HTOO exhibits moderate growth-oriented spending. Key growth metrics include a return on assets of -216.9% (sector: -0.1%). The company appears to be balancing growth investments with capital returns, though the pace of investment may not be enough to accelerate top-line growth meaningfully.
HTOO demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 64/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth data is not currently available, while a beta of 1.53 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Moderate momentum may indicate the stock is consolidating or transitioning between trends, warranting close monitoring of upcoming catalysts.
Fusion Fuel Green PLC registers a low stability score of 18/100, indicating high volatility and potentially stressed financial conditions. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.53 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 17.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). Stocks at this level carry elevated capital loss risk and may be unsuitable for conservative portfolios without careful risk management.
HTOO's short interest factor score of 85/100 indicates very low short selling activity relative to peers — a positive signal suggesting institutional investors see limited near-term downside. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 1.53), elevated leverage (D/E: 17.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. As a micro-cap company with a market capitalization of $10M, Fusion Fuel Green PLC benefits from the generally lower volatility and deeper liquidity associated with its size class.
Fusion Fuel Green PLC is a micro-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #3533 of 7,333 overall (52nd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -476.9% trailing the -2.5% sector median and operating margins of -757.0% below the 1.3% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While HTOO currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.

AUDIT DATA AS OF DEC 31, 2024 (Q3 FY2024)
We rate Fusion Fuel Green PLC (HTOO) as a Reduce with a composite score of 40.0/100 at a current price of $3.38. The quantitative profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting limited upside potential and elevated risk of underperformance relative to peers over the next 12 months.
The rating is primarily driven by strength in momentum (64th percentile) and investment (53th percentile), which together account for the majority of the composite score. Offsetting weakness in value (3th percentile) and stability (18th percentile) tempers our overall conviction. We assign a No Moat rating (25/100), Very High uncertainty, and Poor capital allocation.
Key items to watch: the path to profitability; valuation compression risk if growth disappoints. Any material change in these dynamics could warrant a reassessment of our rating. The moat trend is stable, which suggests the competitive landscape is stable for now.
Fusion Fuel Green PLC holds a top-quartile position (#0 of 50) within the Manufacturing sector, based on our composite quantitative scoring across quality, value, momentum, and stability factors. The composite score of 40.0/100 places it at rank #3533 in our full 7,333-stock universe. At $10M in market capitalization, Fusion Fuel Green PLC is a small-cap player in the Manufacturing space, which limits certain scale advantages but may allow for more agile strategic execution.
Momentum indicators (64th percentile) are constructive regarding the near-term price trend. Revenue growth data is unavailable, limiting our ability to confirm whether momentum is fundamentally supported.
The margin cascade tells an important story: gross margins of 20% (-22.1pp vs sector) narrow to operating margins of -757% (-758.3pp vs sector) and net margins of -712.3%, yielding a gross-to-net conversion rate of -3490%. The significant margin erosion from gross to net suggests elevated operating expenses, high interest costs, or other structural drags that warrant monitoring.
At a current price of $3.38, Fusion Fuel Green PLC is trading at a premium to fundamental value. Our value factor score of 3/100 reflects a composite assessment across multiple valuation metrics including price-to-earnings, price-to-book, EV/EBITDA, and price-to-sales ratios relative to both sector peers and the broader market. The premium valuation implies the market is pricing in significant future growth or quality improvements that are not yet fully reflected in current fundamentals.
The stock currently trades at P/B of 0.6x, P/S of 0.9x. We evaluate these multiples in the context of both absolute levels and sector-relative positioning to form our valuation view.
A conservative balance sheet (17% D/E) provides financial flexibility for acquisitions, buybacks, or weathering economic downturns without dilution.
The Reduce rating (composite 40.0/100) reflects multi-factor weakness, and historically, stocks in this scoring range have underperformed the market by a meaningful margin.
Thin net margins of -712.3% provide limited cushion against cost pressures, competitive pricing, or macroeconomic headwinds — even small changes in costs could swing the company to a loss.
Below-average quality (26th percentile) raises durability concerns about the fundamental profile and increases the risk of negative earnings surprises.
High beta of 1.53 means amplified losses in market selloffs — in a broad market correction, this stock would likely decline more than the index.
We assign a Very High uncertainty rating to Fusion Fuel Green PLC. The stock exhibits multiple compounding risk factors: elevated market sensitivity (beta of 1.53), current negative profitability (net margin -712.3%), below-average price stability (18th percentile). The extreme uncertainty around future cash flows makes precise valuation difficult, and the range of outcomes is exceptionally wide. Only investors with high risk tolerance and extended time horizons should consider this name.
Specific risk factors that inform our assessment include: elevated market sensitivity (beta of 1.53); current negative profitability (net margin -712.3%); below-average price stability (18th percentile); weak quality scores (26th percentile). Each of these factors independently widens the distribution of potential outcomes, and in combination they create a risk profile that demands careful position sizing. The stability factor at the 18th percentile and quality factor at the 26th percentile provide a quantitative summary of the overall risk landscape.
Key risk mitigants include: conservative leverage (17% D/E) limits balance sheet risk. These factors partially offset the identified risks and provide downside protection in adverse scenarios. On balance, the risk-reward profile warrants caution and disciplined position management.
We rate Fusion Fuel Green PLC's capital allocation as Poor. Key concerns include low returns on equity (-476.9%), negative profitability, weak asset returns (ROA -216.9%). Exemplary capital allocators generate ROE above 20% and maintain conservative leverage — Fusion Fuel Green PLC significantly underperforms these benchmarks, raising questions about management's ability to create shareholder value.
Investors should scrutinize management's reinvestment decisions and balance sheet trajectory before committing capital. Poor capital allocation often compounds over time: overlevered balance sheets limit strategic flexibility, while low returns on capital destroy shareholder value. We would need to see sustained improvement in profitability metrics and balance sheet discipline before considering an upgrade.
In summary, Fusion Fuel Green PLC receives a Reduce rating with a composite score of 40.0/100 (rank #3533 of 7,333). Our quantitative framework assigns a No Moat (25/100, trend: stable), Very High uncertainty, and Poor capital allocation. The average factor score across quality, value, momentum, stability, and investment is 33/100.
Our analysis does not support a constructive view on Fusion Fuel Green PLC at this time. The combination of limited competitive advantages, very high uncertainty, and poor capital allocation suggests unfavorable risk-reward at current levels. We recommend investors avoid new positions and existing holders consider reducing exposure.

We do not assign Fusion Fuel Green PLC a meaningful economic moat, scoring 25/100 on our composite assessment. The ROIC-WACC spread of -670.7% is the primary signal of economic value creation. Current fundamentals do not demonstrate the kind of durable competitive advantages — such as superior returns on invested capital, margin superiority, or reinvestment efficiency — that would protect the company from competitive erosion over the long term. The highest-scoring pillar, growth durability, reached only 11.2/20.
The strongest moat sources are growth durability (11.2/20) and financial resilience (8.4/20). Rev growth N/A, 5yr history. Interest coverage -30.9x. These pillars form the core of Fusion Fuel Green PLC's competitive identity and are the primary drivers of excess returns in our framework.
Areas of relative weakness include economic value creation (0/20) and reinvestment efficiency (1.4/20). ROIC -659.0% vs WACC 11.7% (spread -670.7%). Improvement in these areas could meaningfully widen the moat over time, while deterioration would be an early warning of competitive erosion.
Our moat trend assessment is Stable. Multi-year ROIC and operating margin trajectories show neither meaningful improvement nor deterioration, suggesting the competitive position is steady. We expect Fusion Fuel Green PLC's moat profile to remain largely unchanged absent a material shift in return on capital or industry dynamics.
Key profit drivers are not clearly identifiable from current fundamentals. This may reflect a company in transition, a cyclical downturn, or structural challenges in the business model. We assign a quality factor of 26/100 which further underscores our concern regarding earnings sustainability.
The margin profile shows gross margins of 20%, operating margins of -757%, net margins of -712.3%. Return metrics include ROE of -476.9% and ROA of -216.9%. Relative to the Manufacturing sector, gross margins are 22.1 percentage points below the sector median of 43%, and ROE of -476.9% compares to a sector median of -2.5%.
The balance sheet reflects a conservatively managed balance sheet with D/E of 17%. The sector median D/E is 0%, putting Fusion Fuel Green PLC at higher leverage than the typical peer. Overall balance sheet health is adequate for the current business environment.
Elevated short interest (85th percentile) indicates that sophisticated market participants are betting against the stock.
