Ideal Power Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / November 14, 2023 / Ideal Power Inc. ("Ideal Power," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") (NASDAQ:IPWR), pioneering the development and commercialization of the highly efficient and broadly patented B-TRAN™ bidirectional semiconductor power switch, reported results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

"We executed to plan again in the third quarter as we introduced our SymCool™ IQ intelligent power module and completed shipments to all the large companies in our test and evaluation program. We're also thrilled with our advancement into Phase II of the program with a top 10 global automaker. The advancement into Phase II is customer validation of the performance of B-TRAN™ and its potential impact in improving EV range and cost," said Dan Brdar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ideal Power.

Brdar continued, "In response to customer requests, we began providing high-volume quotes to large test and evaluation program participants. Participants in the program have expanded their plans for B-TRAN™ to include additional applications for our technology. Overall, the third quarter continued to underscore our across-the-board progress on our B-TRAN™ commercialization roadmap for the IGBT market, a market expected to grow at an 11% compound annual growth rate over the next three years to reach $11 billion in 2026."
