Shares of Amprius Technologies jumped after the company logged a narrower-than-expected fourth-quarter loss and issued a 2026 forecast that exceeded Wall Street's expectations.

The stock climbed 16% to $14.56 on Thursday. The shares have grown seven-fold in the past year.

The maker of lithium-ion batteries recorded a net loss of $24.4 million, or 18 cents a share, compared with a loss of $11.4 million, or 10 cents a share, a year earlier.

Adjusted earnings came in at a loss of 1 cent a share, outperforming the loss of 4 cents a share that analysts polled by FactSet were expecting.

Revenue more than doubled to $25.2 million, topping Wall Street's forecast of $22.9 million, according to FactSet.

In 2026, Amprius anticipates logging a net loss under $8 million on revenue of at least $125 million. Analysts polled by FactSet are modeling a full-year adjusted loss of $13.3 million on revenue of $124.4 million.

"Looking ahead to 2026, we plan to leverage our enhanced supply chain to scale production and meet accelerating market demand, supporting continued accretive growth," Chief Executive Tom Stepien said.
