Blink's Product-Revenue Decline Accounts for 76% of Its Q3 Sales Drop

The company's third-quarter 2026 service share rose even as service dollars fell, and Blink lowered its full-year revenue forecast for a second time.

The drop in Blink Charging's product revenue represented 76.5% of the company's $8.658 million year-over-year decline in third-quarter 2026 sales, an At The Charger calculation using Blink's original November 5 financial results. Product revenue fell $6.622 million, while service revenue declined a smaller $747,000. That distinction matters because Blink's service business made up a larger percentage of quarterly revenue even as it generated fewer service dollars than a year earlier.12

Blink reported total revenue of $18.397 million, down from $27.055 million in the third quarter of 2025. Its product-sales decline—not an established change in charging sessions or charger availability—accounts for most of that reported difference.12

Where the $8.66 million revenue decline came from

Source: Blink's unaudited quarterly revenue categories. Contributions are calculated as each category's dollar decline divided by the $8.658 million total decline; rounding can affect subtotals. This is an accounting decomposition, not a causal allocation of national charging demand.12

Product revenue's share of Blink's total fell from 48.2% to 34.9%, a 13.3-percentage-point shift. Services moved the other way as a share, from 39.9% to 54.5%, even though service dollars were 6.9% lower. Blink defines that services category to include charging services and recurring network fees; it is not a direct measurement of electricity delivered by its chargers.12

There is also an important difference between one quarter and the full year to date. Blink's newly available original Form 10-Q reports $33.749 million in service revenue for the first nine months of 2026, versus $31.097 million in the same period of 2025—an increase of approximately 8.5%. Product revenue over those nine months, by contrast, fell from $35.924 million to $20.046 million, or approximately 44.2%. Those are calculations from reported line items, not evidence that the same chargers handled more sessions.2

Blink attributes part of its recent revenue pattern to decisions to move away from lower-margin business, including a European contract nonrenewal, and to customer-project delivery timing. Its previously reported June sale of the Envoy car-sharing business also helps explain why that category has disappeared from the latest quarter's revenue. These are the company's stated business explanations; the figures alone cannot isolate changes in broader EV charging demand.13

Another 2026 forecast cut, despite positive adjusted EBITDA

Blink now forecasts $78 million–$81 million in full-year 2026 revenue, down from the $83 million–$90 million range it gave in August. The midpoint fell from $86.5 million to $79.5 million—a further $7 million, or 8.1%, reduction. August's outlook had itself replaced an earlier $105 million–$115 million forecast. These are successive management forecasts, not directly comparable measures of organic charger sales before and after business changes.13

The company also reported its first positive quarterly adjusted EBITDA, at approximately $0.2 million, versus negative $7.3 million a year earlier. That is a non-GAAP measure. Under GAAP, Blink still recorded a roughly $6.9 million operating loss and a $6.7 million net loss for the quarter.12

Blink says it expects some customer-project deliveries to occur in the fourth quarter, subject to timing and execution. Neither that expectation nor the revenue-mix figures establishes future charging-station utilization, a reduction in retail charging prices, or the eventual outcome of the revised 2026 guidance.1
