QuantumScape (US74767V1098) had a prior close of EUR 4.14 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026. The company hit a new 52-week low of USD 4.46, while TD Cowen cut its price target from USD 8.00 to USD 6.00 and kept a Hold rating in a note dated July 24, 2026, as MarketBeat reports.

Loss narrows but revenue remains absent

In the second quarter of 2026, QuantumScape posted a GAAP net loss of USD 98.24 million, down 14.40 percent from USD 114.70 million in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization showed a loss of USD 64.19 million, compared with USD 63.01 million a year earlier, according to Zacks on August 21, 2026.

The same report said QuantumScape recorded no GAAP revenue in the quarter but generated USD 10.80 million in customer billings. First-half 2026 billings reached USD 21.80 million, exceeding the USD 19.50 million recorded for all of fiscal year 2025, giving commercialization efforts a measurable operating marker.

Eagle Line output is the test

QuantumScape maintained its full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA loss guidance at USD 250 million to USD 275 million and cut capital expenditure guidance to USD 27 million to USD 37 million from USD 40 million to USD 60 million. The company ended June 2026 with USD 859.00 million in liquidity, including cash and marketable securities, according to Zacks.

The operating question is whether pilot production can convert technical progress into customer validation. MarketBeat reported on September 16, 2026 that QuantumScape aims to double Eagle Line output before year-end and had reported 90.00 percent equipment uptime. The company is also developing applications for data centers, aerospace and defense alongside electric vehicles.

Stock remains below its yearly high

QuantumScape was last quoted at USD 4.65 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, against a 52-week range of USD 4.46 to USD 19.07 and a market capitalization of USD 2.9 billion. The stock therefore remains 75.62 percent below its 52-week high, while the USD 6.00 TD Cowen target stands 29.03 percent above that Nasdaq quote.
