Summary

Plug Power restructured its previously announced New York Gateway property sale and entered a new Texas property sale agreement, both with Stream Data Centers, as part of its strategic infrastructure optimization initiative. The NY Gateway deal was amended to extend the closing deadline to March 2027 while enabling an interim land closing that releases $6.5 million from escrow and brings in a new $10 million deposit.

The purchase price remains fixed at $142 million. The new Texas transaction involves selling land and 164 MW of grid interconnection assets for $50 million at closing (expected July 31, 2026), plus up to $26.5 million in earnout payments tied to final electrical load capacity. The Texas deal also enables release of approximately $14 million in cash collateral.

The company disclosed preliminary unrestricted cash of approximately $162 million as of June 30, 2026. Together, the two transactions are expected to deliver more than $80 million in near-term incremental liquidity. Management indicated the broader strategic infrastructure optimization initiative is expected to generate aggregate liquidity improvement exceeding $275 million. For investors, these transactions address near-term liquidity needs through asset monetization while the company continues executing its hydrogen infrastructure strategy. The staged NY closing structure with repurchase rights provides downside protection if regulatory approvals don't materialize by March 2027.
