Amprius Technologies NYSE: AMPX just received a new $75 million Department of War (DoW) grant that completely changes the narrative and strengthens the bull case. In short, the money shifts the company from a high-risk speculation with interesting technology to a primary, in-demand supplier for government needs, with an accelerated timeline to profitability.
Amprius Technologies is rapidly scaling its silicon-anode battery business, with SiCore driving 98% of Q2 revenue and strong European drone demand. AMPX achieved 126% y/y revenue growth and 1,800 bps gross margin expansion to 27%, with adjusted EBITDA nearing break-even and a robust $74.5m cash position. A key near-term growth lever is defense drone demand, especially in Europe; U.S. market entry hinges on NDAA-compliant domestic production targeted for 2027.
Amprius raises 2026 revenue and margin guidance as drone demand, European sales and manufacturing economics strengthen visibility.
