Financial Summary
Plug Power, Inc. designs and develops on-site, electricity generation systems utilizing proton exchange membrane fuel cells for residential applications. For the six months ended 6/30/01, revenue fell 57% to $2.3 million. Net loss rose 6% to $37.3 million. Revenues reflect reduced government contract activity with the U.S. Department of Energy. Higher loss was partially offset by the absence of the write-off charge for the acquired intellectual properties.
