Tran Capital Flags Bloom Energy as Key AI Power Play After Oracle Deal

Tran Capital Management's Midcap Equity Strategy highlighted Bloom Energy Corporation as a meaningful contributor to its second-quarter 2026 returns, citing the company's role in easing the power bottleneck constraining the AI buildout. In its investor letter, the firm said Bloom Energy's solid-oxide fuel cells deliver reliable on-site power in months rather than the years-long grid interconnection queues, and that the solution is now cost-competitive with gas generation. The letter pointed to a landmark agreement with Oracle for up to 2.8 gigawatts of fuel cell capacity, with an initial 1.2 gigawatts already contracted and deploying. Bloom Energy reported first-quarter 2026 revenue that more than doubled year-over-year and swung firmly to GAAP profitability, while management raised full-year guidance to roughly 80% growth at the midpoint. The Midcap Equity Strategy returned 16.9% net of fees in the second quarter, bringing year-to-date returns to 12.3%, compared with the Bloomberg U.S. Mid Cap Index's 11.1% quarterly gain and 12.1% year-to-date return. Bloom Energy closed at $275.19 per share on September 23, 2026, with a market capitalization of $81.05 billion and a 52-week range of $61.37 to $351.28.
