Cash and cash equivalents of $7.2 million as of June 30, 2026; subsequent $5 million gross proceeds from private placement supports development and market readiness.
PETAH TIKVA, Israel, Sept. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TurboGen Ltd. (NASDAQ:TRBG) (TASE:TURB) (“TurboGen” or the “Company”), a developer of combined heat and power systems based on multifuel microturbines, today reports financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and provides a business update. The Company reported positive shareholders’ equity of $1.6 million as of June 30, 2026.
“Our strong cash position of $7.2 million as of June 30, 2026, combined with the $5 million raised in August 2026, supports our preparations for commercialization,” said Yaron Gilboa, TurboGen’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our recent Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) listing is an important milestone that we believe will broaden our visibility among U.S. investors as we advance our commercial strategy. Our priorities are to prepare for initial installations, adapt our systems for scaled production, and advance commercialization in the United States and Europe.”
Business Overview
TurboGen develops compact, multi-fuel microturbine systems designed to generate electricity and heat for customers where needed.
The Company intends to serve owners and developers of office, residential, hotels and building clusters, as well as off-grid consumers, small server farms, and data centers. Its primary target markets are the United States and European Union countries with established natural gas infrastructure.
TurboGen offers two commercial models. Customers can purchase an installed system with a service contract or enter a long-term Energy-as-a-Service (“EaaS”) agreement to buy the electricity and heat generated by the system with little to no upfront cost. The Company also plans to integrate its systems with commercially available electricity and heat storage technologies to create local microgrids, supported by an energy management system that coordinates electricity and heat supplied from multiple sources.

First Half 2026 Financial Results
TurboGen remained a development-stage company and generated no revenue during this period. Research and development expenses increased to $1.9 million from $0.6 million for the same period in 2025, reflecting increased testing, materials and contractor costs, preparations for scale production, and share-based compensation.
Sales and marketing expenses were $281,000, compared to $203,000 for the same period in 2025, primarily reflecting higher compensation expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased to $3.1 million from $1.4 million for the same period in 2025, reflecting higher share-based compensation and professional expenses associated with the Nasdaq listing.
Operating loss increased to $5.2 million from $2.3 million for the same period last year.
Net loss narrowed 45% to $4.2 million, compared to $7.6 million for the same period in 2025. The improvement primarily reflected a $6.4 million favorable change in warrant fair-value and debt-extinguishment effects, partially offset by higher operating expenses.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.2 million on June 30, 2026, compared to $3.9 million on December 31, 2025. Net cash used in operating activities was $2.7 million, compared to $1.4 million in the prior-year period. Shareholders’ equity was positive at $1.6 million as of June 30, 2026, an improvement of $4.7 million from December 31, 2025.
