Exhibit 99.1

Increases in fourth quarter and total year revenue of 35.1% and 23.3% respectively, were primarily driven by increases in product acceptances and improved pricing. Cost of goods sold was impacted by non-cash impairment charges relating to the repowering of PPA IV in the fourth quarter and the repowering of PPA IIIa in the second quarter, which were excluded in our non-GAAP reporting.

Commenting on the fourth quarter and full year earnings, KR Sridhar founder, chairman and CEO of Bloom Energy said, "Bloom Energy finished 2022 in a very strong position as our resilient and sustainable energy solutions experienced wider adoption and we were aided by good tailwinds. We expect this trend to continue in 2023 and beyond. Our revenue and non-GAAP gross margin were records for the fourth quarter and for the full year and we closed 2022 with $10 billion backlog, the strongest order book in our company's history. Bloom is now a predictable growth company. We offer the world a unique, mature, and proven platform solution at scale - a solution that can be deployed today with a clear pathway to a net zero future."

Greg Cameron, executive vice president and CFO of Bloom Energy, added, “This year was about achieving strong commercial, operational and financial results which positions us to be a leader in the global energy transition. The demand for our AlwaysOn energy server is evidenced by our record backlog. The company is clearly at an inflection point to build on our mature technology platform, solid record of accomplishment and robust growth roadmap. We're extremely excited about our future.”

Acceptances

We use acceptances as a key operating metric to measure the volume of our completed Energy Server installation activity from period to period. Acceptance typically occurs upon transfer of control to our customers, which depending on the contract terms is when the system is shipped and delivered to our customers, when the system is shipped and delivered and is physically ready for startup and commissioning, or when the system is shipped and delivered and is turned on and producing power.

Conference Call Details

Bloom will host a conference call today, February 9, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) to discuss its financial results.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. Bloom urges you to review the reconciliations of its non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. With respect to Bloom’s expectations regarding its 2023 Outlook, Bloom is not able to provide a quantitative reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin measures to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation expense.

Exhibit 99.1

Material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results and, as such, we believe that any reconciliation provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

Use of non-GAAP financial measures

To supplement Bloom Energy condensed consolidated financial statement information presented on GAAP basis, Bloom Energy provides financial measures including non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit (loss), (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit (loss) margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP basic, diluted net earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA. Bloom Energy also provides forecasts of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not computed in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP in the United States.

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross profit (loss) is gross profit (loss).

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross margin is gross margin.

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations) is operating profit (loss) (earnings from operations).

Exhibit 99.1

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating margin is operating margin.

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP net earnings is net earnings.

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share is diluted net earnings per share.

•The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net earnings.

Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP information are included in the tables above or elsewhere in the materials accompanying this news release.

Use and economic substance of non-GAAP financial measures used by Bloom Energy

Non-GAAP gross profit (loss) and non-GAAP gross margin are defined to exclude charges relating to stock-based compensation expense and PPA IIIa/PPA IV repowerings related impairment charge. Non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations) and non-GAAP operating margin are defined to exclude any charges relating to stock-based compensation expense, PPA IIIa/PPA IV repowerings related impairment charge and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Non-GAAP net earnings and non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share consist of net earnings or diluted net earnings per share excluding stock-based compensation, loss for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, loss (gain) on the fair value adjustments for certain PPA derivatives, goodwill impairment, loss on China JV investment, PPA IIIa/PPA IV repowerings related impairment charge, loss on extinguishment of debt related to PPA IIIa/PPA IV repowerings and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation, loss for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, loss (gain) on the fair value adjustments for certain PPA derivatives, goodwill impairment, loss on China JV investment, PPA IIIa repowering related impairment charge, loss on extinguishment of debt related to PPA IIIa/PPA IV repowerings.

Bloom Energy management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for purposes of evaluating Bloom Energy's historical and prospective financial performance, as well as Bloom Energy's performance relative to its competitors. Bloom Energy believes that excluding the items mentioned above from these non-GAAP financial measures allows Bloom Energy's management to better understand Bloom Energy consolidated financial performance as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of ongoing operating results. More specifically, Bloom Energy management excludes each of those items mentioned above for the following reasons:

•Stock-based compensation expense consists of equity awards granted based on the estimated fair value of those awards at grant date. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, Bloom Energy excludes these charges for the purpose of calculating these non-GAAP measures, primarily because they are non-cash expenses and such an exclusion facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of Bloom Energy current operating performance and comparisons to Bloom Energy operating performance in other periods.

•Loss for non-controlling interest represents allocation to the non-controlling interests under the hypothetical liquidation at book value (HLBV) method and are associated with our Bloom Energy legacy PPA entities.

•Loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities represents non-cash adjustments to the fair value of the embedded derivatives associated with the convertible notes and other derivatives.

•Loss (gain) on the fair value adjustments for certain PPA derivatives represents non-cash adjustments to the fair value of the derivative forward contract for one PPA entity (our Third PPA company), a wholly owned subsidiary.

Exhibit 99.1

•PPA IIIa and PPA IV repowering related impairment charge represents non-cash impairment charges on old server units decommissioned upon repowering.

•Loss on debt extinguishment related to PPA IIIa and PPA IV repowerings.

•Goodwill impairment related to the acquisition of BE Japan in Q2 2021.

•Amortization of acquired intangible assets.

•Loss on China JV investment upon sale of our equity interest.

•Interest expense on interest rate swap settlement.

•Contingent consideration remeasurement.

•Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) before depreciation and amortization expense, provision for income tax, interest expense (income), other expense (income), net. We use Adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our business, excluding specifically identified items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations.

•Backlog is defined as the total Product, Installation and Service Revenue associated with systems that have not yet been accepted and the Service revenue associated with systems that have been accepted, but not yet placed into service. Investors rely on our backlog to make estimates of future Company revenue. Backlog is used by the Company's management to project future revenue, manufacturing, and CAPEX investments. When assessing backlog, management assumes annual renewals per contract terms, which generally varies from 6, 10, 15 or 20 years.

Material limitations associated with use of non-GAAP financial measures

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Bloom Energy results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations in relying on these non-GAAP financial measures are:

•Items such as stock-based compensation expense that is excluded from non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net earnings, and non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share can have a material impact on the equivalent GAAP earnings measure.

•Loss for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, loss (gain) on the fair value adjustments for certain PPA derivatives, though not directly affecting Bloom Energy cash position, represents the loss (gain) in value of certain assets and liabilities. The expense associated with this loss (gain) in value is excluded from non-GAAP net earnings, and non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share and can have a material impact on the equivalent GAAP earnings measure.

•Other companies may calculate non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating profit (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA differently than Bloom Energy does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Compensation for limitations associated with use of non-GAAP financial measures

Bloom Energy compensates for the limitations on its use of non-GAAP financial measures by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures only as a supplement. Bloom Energy also provides a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure within this news release and in other written materials that include these

Exhibit 99.1

non-GAAP financial measures, and Bloom Energy encourages investors to review those reconciliations carefully.

Usefulness of non-GAAP financial measures to investors

Bloom Energy believes that providing financial measures including non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit (loss) margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share in addition to the related GAAP measures provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by Bloom Energy management in its financial and operational decision making and allows investors to see Bloom Energy's results “through the eyes” of management. Bloom Energy further believes that providing this information better enables Bloom Energy investors to understand Bloom Energy's operating performance and to evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by Bloom Energy management to evaluate and measure such performance. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates comparisons of Bloom Energy's operating performance with the performance of other companies in Bloom Energy's industry that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures that may be calculated in a similar manner.
