Fervo Energy Company closed Friday at $27.13, giving the geothermal developer a $7.99 billion equity value — about 17% more than Ormat Technologies, an established listed geothermal operator worth $6.80 billion. That premium now rests heavily on whether Fervo’s new 21-day drilling record can translate into lower plant costs and reliable power sales.

Freedom Fuel pushed by Trump reports 50% sales hike as $3.47 gas promise looks shaky

Freedom Fuel pushed by Trump reports 50% sales hike as $3.47 gas promise looks shaky

Freedom Fuel Network says gasoline volumes have climbed more than 50%, but that may be hurting its margins. Calculated using Pennsylvania's July 9 wholesale cost and the launch rack-to-break-even spread, the original $3.47 pump price now puts the fuel-only loss at about 31 cents per gallon. A typical station that started at the 68,000-gallon monthly average Tom Kloza mentioned and kept up with that volume increase would show a modeled shortfall of about $31,600 a month, not including fees, payroll, utilities or rent. The White House has said there is no subsidy on the price from the government or anyone else.

Xero sets 30-day staff deadline, investors eye 43% stock-pay ratio

Xero Limited has told employees rated “Below Expectation” to either take voluntary severance or go on a 30-day performance-improvement plan. The company is getting stricter as it ramps up its push into artificial intelligence and U.S. payments. CEO Sukhinder Singh Cassidy wrote to staff, “As AI changes how work gets done, we have the chance to redefine how small business finance works.” The change follows a 58% spike in non-cash share-based payment expense to NZ$240.1 million, or 43.3% of Xero’s free cash flow. That’s up from 30.0% a year ago.

The FCC Just Approved a Space Mirror. The Math Points to a $5 Million Lighting Bet

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission last week authorized Reflect Orbital’s first space-mirror test, but a public price cited by its chief executive points to a premium lighting business before it points to a new source of power. Ben Nowack has said one mirror would cost about $5,000 an hour under an annual contract of at least 1,000 hours, implying a roughly $5 million yearly bill at those terms.
