Better EV Stock: QuantumScape vs. ChargePoint
The Motley Fool· 2025-05-25 22:52
Core Viewpoint - QuantumScape and ChargePoint are two distinct investment opportunities in the electric vehicle (EV) market, with QuantumScape focusing on solid-state batteries and ChargePoint on EV charging infrastructure [1][2]. QuantumScape - QuantumScape has been developing solid-state lithium metal batteries for 15 years but has yet to commercialize any products, with mass production expected to start in 2026 [4][5]. - The QSE-5 battery is projected to have an energy density exceeding 800 Wh/L and can charge from 10% to 80% in under 15 minutes, outperforming traditional lithium-ion batteries [4]. - Analysts predict QuantumScape's revenue will reach $4 million in 2026 and $93 million in 2027, with an enterprise value of $1.63 billion, leading to a valuation of 18 times its 2027 sales [8]. - Competition from major automakers and startups in the solid-state battery space poses a significant challenge for QuantumScape [7]. ChargePoint - ChargePoint managed 342,000 charging ports across North America and Europe by the end of fiscal 2025, with over 33,000 being Level 3 fast chargers [9]. - ChargePoint's revenue grew by 65% in fiscal 2022 and 93% in fiscal 2023, but it faced an 18% decline in fiscal 2025 due to rising interest rates affecting the EV market [11][12]. - Analysts forecast ChargePoint's revenue to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 21% from fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2028, reaching $738 million, with adjusted EBITDA expected to turn positive in fiscal 2027 [13]. - ChargePoint's enterprise value is $495 million, trading at just 1.1 times this year's sales, indicating potential for a higher valuation as the EV market recovers [14]. Investment Recommendation - ChargePoint is viewed as a more attractive investment compared to QuantumScape, given its current undervaluation and established market presence in EV charging infrastructure [15].
