Dell falls as soft current quarter guide offsets Q2 beat, full-year outlook lift
RONAN, Mont. - AirJoule Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: AIRJ), a company specializing in atmospheric water harvesting technology with a market capitalization of $279 million, has announced securing approximately $15 million in a private placement of common stock. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong financial position with more cash than debt on its balance sheet and a healthy current ratio of 7.83. The investment, led by GE Vernova and joined by other investors, aims to accelerate the commercialization of the company’s AirJoule® system, which can produce pure water from air using less than 160 watt-hours per liter.
The private investment in public equity (PIPE) deal is scheduled to close on April 25, 2025, pending customary closing conditions. This financial move follows GE Vernova’s initial investment of $5 million in March 2024, associated with a 50/50 joint venture formed with AirJoule Technologies. With the company trading at a P/E ratio of 1.21, InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock may be undervalued relative to its fundamentals, with comprehensive insights available in the Pro Research Report.
The AirJoule® A1000™ units, which are expected to deliver between 1,000 and 3,000 liters of pure water daily, are slated for pilot deployments to select customers in 2025. The net proceeds from the PIPE will be directed toward meeting the strong customer demand for these units.
GE Vernova’s continued financial backing and technical collaboration with the joint venture at the GE Vernova Advanced Research Center are seen as a testament to the commitment to bring the AirJoule® system to market. The partnership focuses on refining sorbents, improving components, and optimizing system performance.
The two companies have also initiated a strategic project to explore integrating the AirJoule® technology into GE Vernova’s product offerings. The goal is to harness low-grade waste heat from industrial activities, such as data centers and power generation, to produce on-site distilled water, potentially enhancing energy efficiency and addressing water scarcity issues.
AirJoule Technologies CEO Matt Jore expressed excitement about GE Vernova’s ongoing support and investment, noting the shared vision to innovate and commercialize the AirJoule® system. Bryan Barton, Chief Commercialization Officer at AirJoule Technologies, highlighted the system’s efficiency in water harvesting and its potential to mitigate global water scarcity.
Limor Spector, President of Ventures at GE Vernova, underscored the collaborative effort to tackle global challenges at the intersection of energy and water.
