Current report
On October 1, 2025, the U.S. government shut down due to the failure of the U.S. Congress to pass an appropriations bill, or any continuing resolutions to maintain funding at existing levels, for the U.S. government’s current fiscal year. While we have not experienced a notable slowdown in our government work even with the shutdown, a prolonged government shutdown could delay our ability to convert project awards into contracts and as such could have an adverse impact on our financial results. We continue to monitor the impacts of this shut down. The government shutdown has also delayed the government providing guidance regarding the “beginning of construction” criteria applicable to clean energy projects and final FEOC restrictions under the OBBB Act.
Current report
We believe the increasing demand for electricity, rising utility rates, and growing grid instability, are driving demand for our energy infrastructure and other solutions. This increased demand may increase the competition we face and we may also face an increased risk in completing larger more complex projects.

Current report
On May 27, 2025 we entered into an omnibus amendment as part of a tax credit transfer agreement for investment tax credits. The agreement required a$7,000 principal payment, which was made during thenine months ended September 30, 2025. On September 26, 2025 we entered into an amendment to modify the May 27, 2025 omnibus amendment. The amendment included advances of$25,500 related to an expansion project and$15,653 related to a true-up payment in connection to the removal of an IRR residual income requirement. Prior to this amendment, the loan bore interest at a rate of 6.70% with a residual percentage of distributable cash flows payable after the maturity date of the loan, until the earlier of the lender achieving an 8.51% internal rate of return (“IRR”) on funds borrowed under the facility, or the facility discharge date.

Among other provisions, the OBBB introduces new timing requirements for solar-only projects seeking eligibility for Investment Tax Credits (the “ITC”) under Section 48 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). To qualify, such projects must commence construction by July 4, 2026, and be placed in service by December 31, 2027. The OBBB also phases down ITCs for energy storage projects beginning in 2034, with a complete phase-out by 2036. Additionally, it increases the requirements for the domestic content bonus credit and introduces new compliance obligations under the Foreign Entity of Concern (“FEOC”) provisions for solar and energy storage projects beginning construction in 2026. On July 7, 2025, the President issued an Executive Order directing the Secretary of the Treasury to issue updated guidance within 45 days regarding the “beginning of construction” criteria applicable to clean energy projects and mandating implementation of the FEOC restrictions under the OBBB.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we continued to face supply chain disruptions and varying levels of inflation driven by macroeconomic conditions. This caused some delays in the timely delivery of material to customer sites and in the timely completion of certain projects and increased shipping, transportation, component and labor costs, negatively impacting our results of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2025. We expect these challenges will persist and they may intensify. We continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions to remain flexible and to optimize and evolve our business as appropriate to address the challenges presented from these conditions.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we drew an additional $171.4 million, paid down $75.3 million, and at September 30, 2025, $408.5 million was outstanding under our August 2023 Construction Credit Facility, net of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs. The Powin bankruptcy triggered a default under this facility, requiring us to move the project associated with the battery payment deposits we made to Powin out of this facility. There were other administrative errors which resulted in defaults under this facility. We received the appropriate waivers for these defaults. In addition, we received a waiver to temporarily increase our maximum commitment of $400,000 to $415,000 until November 30, 2025.
Previous wording
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we sold and leased back five energy assets for $18.9 million in cash proceeds under our master sale-leaseback agreements. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we were default of certain lien provisions of this agreement. On June 30, 2025, we received a waiver of this default.
Current wording
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we sold and leased back eight energy assets for $28.6 million in cash proceeds under our August 2018 Master Sale-leaseback. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we were in default of certain lien provisions of this agreement. On June 30, 2025, we received a waiver of this default which is valid until December 31, 2025.
Previous wording
We have arrangements with certain third-parties to provide advances to us during the construction or installation of projects for certain customers, typically federal governmental entities, in exchange for our assignment to the lenders of our rights to the long-term receivables arising from the ESPCs related to such projects. These financings totaled $550.6 million as of June 30, 2025. Under the terms of these financing arrangements, we are required to complete the construction or installation of the project in accordance with the contract with our customer, and the liability remains on our condensed consolidated balance sheets until the completed project is accepted by the customer.

Under the terms of these financing arrangements, we are required to complete the construction or installation of the project in accordance with the contract with our customer, and the liability remains on our condensed consolidated balance sheets until the completed project is accepted by the customer.
Previous wording
We are the primary obligor for financing received, but only until final acceptance of the work by the customer. At this point recourse to us ceases and the ESPC receivables are transferred to the investor. The transfers of receivables under these agreements do not qualify for sales accounting until final customer acceptance of the work, so the advances from the investors are not classified as operating cash flows. Cash draws that we received under these ESPC agreements were $35.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and are recorded as financing cash inflows. The use of the cash received under these arrangements is to pay project costs classified as operating cash flows and totaled $36.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Due to the manner in which the ESPC contracts with the third-party investors are structured, our reported operating cash flows are materially impacted by the fact that operating cash flows only reflect the ESPC contract expenditure outflows and do not reflect any inflows from the corresponding contract revenues. Upon acceptance of the project by the federal customer the ESPC receivable and corresponding ESPC liability are removed from our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a non-cash settlement.

Previous wording
Our cash flows from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased over the same period last year primarily due to increases in cash outflows of $156.9 million in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, $39.8 million in deferred revenue, and $41.9 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets, partially offset by increases in cash inflows of $46.3 million in unbilled revenue (costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings) due to the timing of when certain projects are invoiced when compared to the prior year period and $6.8 million in accounts receivable.
Current wording
Our cash flows from operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased over the same period last year primarily due to increases in cash outflows of $188.5 million in unbilled revenue due to the timing of when certain projects are invoiced compared to the prior year period, $40.3 million in deferred revenue, and $56.8 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets, partially offset by increases in cash inflows of $82.6 million in accounts receivable, $51.1 million in Federal ESPC receivable, and higher net income of $15.7 million.
