Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

NOTE 1: GENERAL

a.SolarEdge Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries design, develop, and sell an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual photovoltaic (“PV”) module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. The Company’s products consist mainly of (i) power optimizers designed to maximize energy throughput from each and every module through constant tracking of Maximum Power Point individually per module, (ii) inverters which invert direct current (DC) from the PV module to alternating current (AC) including the Company’s future ready Energy Hub inverter which supports, among other things, connection to a DC-coupled battery for full or partial home backup capabilities, and optional connection to the Company's smart EV charger, (iii) a remote cloud-based monitoring platform, that collects and processes information from the power optimizers and inverters to enable customers and system owners, to monitor and manage the solar PV system (iv) batteries for PV applications that are used to increase energy independence and maximize self-consumption for PV system's owners including a battery ,and (v) additional smart energy management solutions.

The Company and its subsidiaries sell products worldwide through large distributors, electrical equipment wholesalers, as well as directly to large solar installers and engineering, procurement, and construction firms.

b.The Company has expanded its activity to other areas of smart energy technology organically and through acquisitions. The Company offers a variety of energy solutions, which include lithium-ion cells, batteries, and energy storage systems (“Energy Storage”), automated machines for industrial use (“Automation Machines”), as well as cloud-based energy management solutions.
c.Basis of Presentation:

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The Company’s interim period results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.

The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2023, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2024, have been applied consistently in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

d.Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures in the accompanying notes. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties.

e.Concentrations of supply risks:

The Company depends on two contract manufacturers and several limited or single source component suppliers. Reliance on these vendors makes the Company vulnerable to possible capacity constraints and reduced control over component availability, delivery schedules, manufacturing yields, and costs.

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, two contract manufacturers collectively accounted for 44.9% and 58.5% of the Company’s total trade payables, net, respectively.

The Company's own manufacturing facility, Sella 1, located in the north of Israel, is primarily used in the Company's Solar segment operations. Additionally, Sella 2, a Company owned manufacturing facility in South Korea, together with a smaller Company owned facility, are used for the Energy Storage segment.

f.New accounting standards updates:

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). Additional segment reporting information required by ASU 2023-07 includes: disclosing the title and position of the individual or the name of the group or committee identified as the CODM, provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually, and additional disclosures regarding significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes to be included in effective tax rate reconciliation disclosure. Additionally, the newly added categories also apply to the income taxes paid disclosure. Implementation of said additions are subject to quantitative thresholds. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.

NOTE 2: INVESTMENTS IN PRIVATELY-HELD COMPANIES

In January 2023, the Company completed an investment of $5,500 in the common stock of Weev Energy B.F. Ltd., ("Wevo"), a privately-held company, which represented 34.8% of Wevo's outstanding shares. The investment agreement included a call option to acquire Wevo's remaining outstanding shares. The Company accounted for the common stock and the call option as a single hybrid instrument.

The Company accounted for its investment in Wevo using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the investment, which was initially recorded at cost, is adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of net earnings or losses of the investee as they occur, rather than when dividends or other distributions are received. The Company's share of net losses in the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $296.

In January 2024, the Company completed an investment of $6,000 in the preferred stock of Ivy Energy, Inc, ("Ivy"), a privately-held U.S. company. The Company accounted for the Ivy investment as an equity investment that does not have readily determinable fair values. As such, the Company’s non-marketable equity securities had a carrying value of $6,000 as of March 31, 2024.

As of March 2024, the Company completed an investment of $5,000 in the preferred stock of Stardust Solution, Inc, ("Stardust"), a privately-held U.S. company. The Company accounted for the Stardust investment as an equity investment that does not have readily determinable fair values. As such, the Company’s non-marketable equity securities had a carrying value of $5,000 as of March 31, 2024.

Investments in privately-held companies are included within other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2024, the carrying value of investments in privately-held companies was $16,183.

There were no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2024 associated with this equity method investment.

NOTE 7: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program to reduce the risk of a forecasted increase in the value of foreign currency cash flows, resulting from payment of salaries in Israeli currency, the New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”). The Company hedges portions of the anticipated payroll denominated in NIS for a period of one to nine months with hedging contracts. These hedging contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815 and are all effective hedges.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company entered into put and call options to sell U.S. dollars (“USD”) for NIS in the amount of NIS 276 million.

In addition to the above-mentioned cash flow hedge transactions, the Company occasionally enters into derivative instrument arrangements to hedge the Company’s exposure to currencies other than USD. These derivative instruments are not designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815, and therefore all gains and losses, resulting from fair value remeasurement, were recorded immediately in the statement of income (loss), under "Financial income (expense), net".

As of March 31, 2024, the Company entered into a cross-currency swap contract to sell Euro (“EUR”) for USD in the amount of EUR 18 million.

The Company classifies cash flows related to its hedging as operating activities in its condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

The fair values of outstanding derivative instruments were as follows:

NOTE 8: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

In accordance with ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement" the Company measures its cash equivalents and marketable securities, at fair value using the market approach valuation technique. Cash and cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 because these assets are valued using quoted market prices. Marketable securities and foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within level 2 due to these assets being valued by alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs.

The following table sets forth the Company’s assets that were measured at fair value as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

NOTE 12: CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES

On September 25, 2020, the Company sold $632,500 aggregate principal amount of its 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold pursuant to an indenture, dated September 25, 2020 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes do not bear regular interest and mature on September 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms. The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company. Holders may convert their Notes prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 15, 2025 in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five-business-day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each trading day of that five consecutive trading day period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described in the Indenture. In addition, holders may convert their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at their option at any time beginning on or after June 15, 2025, and prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the stated maturity date of the Notes, without regard to the foregoing circumstances. The initial conversion rate for the Notes was 3.5997 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $277.80 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events as set forth in the Indenture.

Upon conversion, the Company may choose to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock.

In addition, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at a repurchase price of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding the fundamental change repurchase date. If certain fundamental changes referred to as make-whole fundamental changes occur, the conversion rate for the Notes may be increased.

The Convertible Senior Notes consisted of the following as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

March 31, 2024December 31, 2023
Liability:
Principal$632,500$632,500

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company recorded amortized debt issuance costs related to the Notes in the amount of $735 and $731, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the unamortized issuance costs of the Notes will be amortized over the remaining term of approximately 1.5 years.

The annual effective interest rate of the Notes is 0.47%.

As of March 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of the Notes, which the Company has classified as Level 2 financial instruments, is $577,428. The estimated fair value was determined based on the quoted bid price of the Notes in an over-the-counter market on the last trading day of the reporting period. As of March 31, 2024, the if-converted value of the Notes did not exceed the principal amount.

NOTE 13: STOCK CAPITAL

a. Common stock rights:

Common stock confers upon its holders the right to receive notice of, and to participate in, all general meetings of the Company, where each share of common stock shall have one vote for all purposes, to share equally, on a per share basis, in bonuses, profits, or distributions out of fund legally available therefor, and to participate in the distribution of the surplus assets of the Company in the event of liquidation of the Company.

b. Equity Incentive Plans:

The Company’s 2007 Global Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) was adopted by the board of directors on August 30, 2007. The 2007 Plan terminated upon the Company’s IPO on March 31, 2015 and no further awards may be granted thereunder. All outstanding awards will continue to be governed by their existing terms and 379,358 available options for future grants were transferred to the Company’s 2015 Global Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and are reserved for future issuances under the 2015 plan. The 2015 Plan became effective upon the consummation of the IPO. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of options, restricted stock units ("RSU"), performance stock units ("PSU"), and other share-based awards to directors, employees, officers, and non-employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2024, a total of 23,709,926 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to stock awards under the 2015 Plan (the “Share Reserve”), an aggregate of 13,676,076 shares are still available for future grants.

The Share Reserve will automatically increase on January 1 st of each year during the term of the 2015 Plan, commencing on January 1 st of the year following the year in which the 2015 Plan becomes effective, in an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of capital stock outstanding on December 31 st of the preceding calendar year; provided, however, that the Company’s board of directors may determine that there will not be a January 1 st increase in the Share Reserve in a given year or that the increase will be less than 5% of the shares of capital stock outstanding on the preceding December 31 st.

The Company granted under its 2015 Plan, PSU awards to certain employees and officers which vest upon the achievement of certain performance or market conditions subject to their continued employment with the Company.

The market condition for the PSUs is based on the Company’s total shareholder return ("TSR") compared to the TSR of companies listed in the S&P 500 index over a one to three year performance period. The Company uses a Monte-Carlo simulation to determine the grant date fair value for these awards, which takes into consideration the market price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant less the present value of dividends expected during the requisite service period, as well as the possible outcomes pertaining to the TSR market condition. The Company recognizes such compensation expenses on an accelerated vesting method.

The aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued on the exercise of incentive stock options is 10,000,000. As of March 31, 2024, an aggregate of 8,617,974 options are still available for future grants under the 2015 Plan.

c. Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"):

The Company adopted an ESPP effective upon the consummation of the IPO. As of March 31, 2024, a total of 4,638,023 shares were reserved for issuance under this plan.

The ESPP is implemented through an offering every six months. According to the ESPP, eligible employees may use up to 15% of their salaries to purchase common stock up to an aggregate limit of $15 per participant for every six months plan. The price of an ordinary share purchased under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the ordinary share on the subscription date of each offering period or on the purchase date.

e. Repurchase of Common Stock:

On November 1, 2023, the Company announced the approval by the Board of Directors of a share repurchase program which authorizes the repurchase of up to $300,000 of the Company’s common stock. Under the share repurchase program, repurchases can be made using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs and/or a non-discretionary trading plan or other means, including through 10b5-1 trading plans, all in compliance with the rules of the SEC and other applicable legal requirements. The timing, manner, price and amount of any common share repurchases under the share repurchase program are determined by the Company in its discretion and depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of common stock, it may be suspended, extended, modified, discontinued or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and will expire on December 31, 2024.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 505,896 shares of common stock from the open market at an average cost of $65.67 per share for a total of $33,222.

NOTE 14: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

a. Guarantees:

As of March 31, 2024, contingent liabilities exist regarding guarantees in the amounts of $6,002, and $1,841 in respect of office rent lease agreements and other transactions, respectively.

b. Contractual purchase obligations:

The Company has contractual obligations to purchase goods and raw materials. These contractual purchase obligations relate to inventories and other purchase orders, which cannot be canceled without penalty. In addition, the Company acquires raw materials or other goods and services, including product components, by issuing authorizations to its suppliers to purchase materials based on its projected demand and manufacturing needs.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had non-cancellable purchase obligations totaling approximately $484,287, out of which the Company recorded a provision for loss in the amount of $23,259.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had contractual obligations for capital expenditures totaling approximately $32,967. These commitments reflect purchases of automated assembly lines and other machinery related to the Company’s general manufacturing process and are primarily for its new manufacturing sites in the U.S.

c. Legal claims:

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims and legal proceedings. The Company reviews the status of each matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. These accruals are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.

On November 3, 2023, Daphne Shen, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a proposed class action complaint for violation of federal securities laws, individually and punitively on behalf of all others similarly situated, in the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York against the Company, the Company’s CEO and the Company’s CFO. The complaint alleges violations of Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act, as well as violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individual defendants. The complaint seeks class certification, damages, interest, attorneys’ fees, and other relief. On December 13, 2023, Javier Cascallar filed a similar proposed class action. On February 7, 2024, the Court consolidated the two actions, and appointed co-lead plaintiffs and lead counsel. On April 22, 2024, the co-lead Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint adding two additional officers. The amended complaint makes substantially similar allegations and claims. Due to the early stage of this proceeding, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential range of loss, if any, or the likelihood of a potential adverse outcome. The Company disputes the allegations of wrongdoing and intends to vigorously defend against them.

In August 2019, the Company was served with a lawsuit filed in the civil courts of Milan, Italy against the Italian subsidiary of SolarEdge e-Mobility S.r.l (previously SMRE S.p.A) that purchased the shares of SolarEdge e-Mobility in the tender offer that followed the SolarEdge e-Mobility Acquisition by certain former shareholders of SolarEdge e-Mobility who tendered their shares. The lawsuit asked for damages of approximately $3,000, representing the difference between the amount for which they tendered their shares (6 Euro per share) and 6.7 Euros per share. In December 2023, the court of Milan, rendered a decision ordering SolarEdge to pay, in favor of each plaintiff, the difference between the price paid (6 Euro per share) and 6.44 Euro per share, (i.e.0.44 euros per share) for a total payment of approximately $1,700, which consists, in addition to the shareholders' compensation, legal expenses, court fees, VAT, and CPA expenses per local law. The Company is currently evaluating whether to appeal this decision.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company recorded an accrual of $2,229 for legal claims which was recorded under accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

NOTE 17: RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER EXIT ACTIVITIES

On January 21, 2024, the Company announcedthe adoption of a restructuring plan in response to challenging industry conditions (the “Restructuring Plan”). Under the Restructuring Plan, the Company reduced its headcount by approximately 16% over the first half of 2024 through an involuntary workforce reduction plan. The adoption of the Restructuring Plan follows the Company’s previous measures taken to align with current market conditions, including termination of manufacturing in Mexico, reduction of manufacturing capacity in China, and discontinuation of the Company’s light commercial vehicle e-mobility activity.

Restructuring and other exit charges for the three months ended March 31, 2024 by segment and type of cost were as follows:

Solar · e-Mobility

NOTE 18: INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company reported tax benefits and its effective tax rate was 13.1%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, where the Company reported income taxes and its effective tax rate was 17.5%.

The change in effective tax rate in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the corresponding period in 2023 is primarily attributable to the fact that the pre-tax loss for the quarter was in jurisdictions where the Company is either subject to a lower tax rate or where we do not anticipate a future tax benefit.

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, unrecognized tax benefits were $18,496 and $15,908, respectively. If recognized, such benefits would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate.

The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. The total amount of penalties and interest as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $4,570 and $2,927, respectively.

In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which includes several incentives intended to promote clean energy, battery and energy storage, electrical vehicles, and other solar products, and is expected to impact our business and operations. As part of such incentives, the IRA will, among other things, extend the investment tax credit (“ITC”) through 2034 and is therefore expected to increase the demand for solar products. The IRA is expected to further incentivize residential and commercial solar customers and developers due to the inclusion of significant tax credits for qualifying energy projects, and Advanced Manufacturing tax credits ("AMPTC") for U.S. manufacturing of eligible components (under IRC §45X), including PV inverters and DC-optimized systems.The Company has been manufacturing eligible products in the U.S. since the fourth quarter of 2023. In the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company manufactured and sold products that entitle it to $14,960 of AMPTCs, which were recorded as a reduction in of cost of revenues. In the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not record AMPTCs. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, benefits recognized from AMPTCs of $20,980 and $6,020, respectively, were recorded as a tax prepayment within prepayment and other current assets. The implementation of the new incentive rules is complex and further guidance by the U.S. Treasury on these rules is still pending.

NOTE 20: SEGMENT INFORMATION

Following the discontinuation of its e-Mobility LCV activity, the Company operates inthree different operating segments: Solar, Energy Storage and Automation Machines.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), makes resource allocation decisions and assesses performance based on financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues and contributed profit by the operating segments.

The Company does not allocate to its operating segments revenue recognized due to advance payments received for performance obligations that extend for a period greater than one year (“financing component”), related to Accounting Standard Codification 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606).

Segment profit (loss) is comprised of gross profit (loss) for the segment less operating expenses that do not include amortization and impairment of purchased intangible assets, stock based compensation expenses, restructuring charges, discontinued activity charges and certain other items.

The Company manages its assets on a group basis, not by segments, as many of its assets are shared or co-mingled. The Company’s CODM does not regularly review asset information by segments and, therefore, the Company does not report asset information by segment.

The Company identified two operating segments as reportable – the Solar segment and the Energy Storage segment. The other operating segments are insignificant individually and therefore their results are presented together under “All other”.

The Solar segment includes the design, development, manufacturing, and sales of an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual PV module level and batteries for PV applications. The Solar segment solution consists mainly of the Company’s power optimizers, inverters, batteries, and cloud‑based monitoring platform.

The Energy Storage segment includes the design, development, manufacturing, and sales of high-energy, high-power, lithium-ion cells and racks and containerized battery systems for C&I and Utility markets. The Energy Storage segment provides purpose-built components and solutions, hardware and software, as well as pre and post sales engineering support to design, build, and manage battery and system solutions according to the customer’s use cases and mission profiles.

The “All other” category includes automated machines and e-Mobility (in prior periods).
