The company posted a blended gross profit of $2.1 million, or 7.3% of revenues, down from $10.7 million or 32.2% of revenues in the second quarter of 2024.

Operating expenses increased to $34.3 million from $31.4 million in the prior-year quarter, driven by higher general and administrative expenses. These included $10.1 million of largely one-time, non-cash charges primarily related to asset impairment, fair value changes in Envoy consideration payable, stock-based compensation, and doubtful accounts receivable reserves.

Blink Charging reported a net loss of $32.0 million or $0.31 per share for the quarter, compared to a loss of $20.1 million or $0.20 per share during the second quarter of 2024, and ended the period with $25.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.
