State: STRESSED (86% confidence), unchanged. AWS CEO says substantial cloud capacity is already committed through 2027 and into 2028, supporting demand visibility but not proving energized capacity or ROI. Bloom Energy reported Q3 revenue of $1,235.8M, up 138.1% year over year, and GAAP gross margin of 33.8%, but Q3 operating cash flow was -$27.1M; simplified free cash flow was -$180.6M. A separate approximately $580.3M pipeline order for a hyperscaler data center reinforces the shift toward onsite power and gas infrastructure, though deliveries are expected in fiscal 2029. Rising working-capital requirements create a negative profit-quality residual across suppliers. Two thesis invalidators: confirmed deployment/compute orders falling across independent layers; or architecture/content/share tailwinds failing alongside sustained margin and cash deterioration. Prioritize Amazon's October 29 results, Bloom's next cash conversion window, and energized capacity versus contracted capacity.
