Aker Carbon Capture (AKCCF)

Aker Carbon Capture (OTCMKTS:AKCCF) is a pure-play carbon capture company that is working towards reducing and removing CO2 emissions.

Valued at $6.8 billion in 2023, the carbon capture market is expected to see a CAGR of 19% by 2032. This growth stems from carbon emission reduction regulations, increased investments in control initiatives and a decarbonization focus.

In Q4 2023, Aker Carbon reported revenue of 573 million Norwegian kroner, up an impressive 139% YOY. Aker also increased its order backlog to NOK 2.6 billion, compared to NOK 1.3 billion YOY. It also holds a cash position of NOK 1.1 billion. Looking forward, management hopes to secure contracts to capture 10 million tons of CO2 per annum by 2025. With astonishing financial growth and ambitious expansion plans, Aker Carbon will likely continue to grow.

Additionally, the company was recently awarded a milestone project to test a carbon capture campaign for CO280 Solutions, a leading pulp and paper company. The U.S. pulp and paper industry is a huge emitter of CO2 and a priority market for Aker Carbon to develop. This partnership holds immense growth potential for both parties.

Blink Charging (BLNK)

Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK) is a leading provider of EV charging equipment and services, serving both domestic and international customers. After falling almost 56% in the last year, the stock could be at an oversold level, presenting an intriguing opportunity.

In Q4 2023, Blink Charging reported robust revenues of $42.7 million, marking an 89% increase YOY. While the company has yet to achieve profitability, its operating expenses in Q4 2023 decreased by 16%. It is showing progress towards its target of positive adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2024. Furthermore, after raising $113 million via ATM, Blink Charging strengthened its balance sheet by paying off $45.5 million in promissory notes and accrued interest. These notable financial achievements and the company’s record-breaking Q4 results underscore its promising future.

Adding to its momentum, Blink Charging announced plans to build a new 30,000-square-foot production facility. The facility will streamline production and ramp up manufacturing capacity. This should position the company to meet global demand for EV charging stations — this company is clearly worth more than it’s currently trading at.

In Q4 2023, IAMGOLD reported revenue of $297.6 million and EBITDA of $70.2 million.
