Change in fair value of warrant liability is related to the revaluation at each reporting date of our private placement warrants issued in connection with our senior secured notes.

Current report

Revenue increased by $8.9 million, or 31%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $12.7 million increase in hardware revenue primarily due to an increase in edge hardware revenue from new and existing customers. Additionally, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded net revenue reductions due to updated valuations of certain contracts that provided parent company guarantees for hardware revenue related to deliveries that occurred prior to 2024. The increase was partially offset by a $3.7 million decrease in service and other revenue primarily due to the absence of DevCo Project revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Current report

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a $104.1 million write-off of receivables related to certain customer contracts, which provided for parent company guarantees, that were deemed to be uncollectible.

Previous report

Our mission is to help our customers plan, deploy, and operate clean energy assets via AI-enabled software and services.

Previous report

We offer a comprehensive suite of solutions that transform how solar and energy storage projects are developed, built, and operated, including (i) an integrated suite of software and edge products, and (ii) full-lifecycle energy services from a team of experts.

Previous report

We operate in two key areas within the renewable energy landscape: solar and storage. In solar, we serve project developers, asset owners and engineering, procurement and construction firms (EPCs) by selling them solar edge devices and monitoring and control software, as well as professional services related to the design and commissioning of the same.

Previous report

In storage, we serve project developers, asset owners, EPCs, and distributors by selling them software-enabled forecasting and optimization managed services that minimize spending on utility bills, or maximize revenue from energy market participation. In some cases, we also resell battery original equipment manufactured (“OEM”) hardware to our customers for a fee.

Previous report

Some customers own both solar and storage assets, and use our full software capabilities and services across both asset classes.

Previous report

We have historically depended on a small number of significant customers for our sales, and a small number of customers have historically accounted for a material portion of our revenue. Although we continue to diversify our customer base, we may continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from a small number of customers. Loss of a significant customer, the inability to close (or a delay in closing) a significant contract at any time, or a significant reduction in pricing or order volume from a significant customer, have (in the case of contractual delays) resulted in material reductions in revenue and other adverse effects in certain quarters, and may do so in the future.

Previous report

We rely on a very small number of suppliers of energy storage systems and other equipment. If any of our suppliers were unable or unwilling to provide us with contracted quantities in a timely manner at prices, quality levels, and volumes acceptable to us, we would have very limited alternatives for supply, and we may not be able find suitable replacements for our customers, if at all. Such an event could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

Previous report

Revenue increased by $4.4 million, or 13%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by an increase of $1.6 million in solar software revenue from growth in assets under management and expansion of our annual recurring revenue base, an increase of $1.0 million in edge hardware revenue reflecting bookings growth and continued demand for solar solutions, an increase of $1.0 million in project and professional services revenue primarily attributable to higher commissioning activities resulting from increased bookings and the execution of projects in our backlog, and an increase of $3.1 million in storage software and managed services revenue driven by growth in assets under management and increased one-time service engagements. The increase was partially offset by a $2.3 million as the company continues to strategically de-emphasize this business line and pursue more selective opportunities.

Previous report

Revenue increased by $11.4 million, or 19%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by an increase of$2.7 million in solar software revenue from growth in assets under management and expansion of our annual recurring revenue base, an increase of$3.2 million in edge hardware revenue reflecting bookings growth and continued demand for solar solutions, an increase of$1.5 million in project and professional services revenue primarily attributable to higher commissioning activities resulting from increased bookings and the execution of projects in our backlog, and an increase of$4.5 million in storage software and managed services revenue driven by growth in assets under management and increased one-time service engagements. The increase was partially offset by a$0.4 million as the company continues to strategically de-emphasize this business line and pursue more selective opportunities.

Previous wording

In July 2025, the OBBB was enacted, which introduced material changes to clean energy tax credit programs that are significant to our business and may affect our financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. Included in this legislation are provisions that allow for the immediate expensing of domestic Unites States research and development expenses, immediate expensing of certain capital expenditures, and other changes to the U.S. taxation of profits derived from foreign operations. As a result of the enactment of the legislation, we do not expect any material changes to tax expense or cash tax for Q3 2025 when the law was enacted, mainly as a result of the valuation allowance we have on our deferred tax assets

Previous wording

The OBBB makes permanent key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation, domestic research cost expensing, and the business interest expense limitation. ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the effects of changes in tax rates and laws to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted, which is the date the legislation is signed into law. We are evaluating the impact of the OBBB on our financial statements, but do not expect that it will have a material impact.

Previous wording

Prior to July 2023, we agreed in certain customer contracts, to PCG that the value of purchased hardware will not decline for a certain period of time, as more fully described above under Note 3 —Revenue, of the accompanying Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Report. We accounted for such contractual terms and guarantees as variable consideration at each measurement date. We updated our estimates of variable consideration each quarter with respect to outstanding guarantees, including changes in estimates related to such guarantees, for facts or circumstances that had changed from the time of the initial estimate. As a result, the Company recorded a net revenue reduction of $33.1 million in hardware revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The overall reduction in revenue was related to deliveries that occurred prior to 2024.

The overall reduction in revenue was related to deliveries that occurred prior to 2024.

Previous wording

Because we have not included these parent company guarantees in our contracts since July 2023, and because we do not intend to provide guarantees in customer contracts going forward, we believe that excluding the effect of the $33.1 million net reduction in revenue from adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP gross profit enhances the comparability to these metrics in prior periods.

Previous wording

For those contracts where the customers invoked PCG protection pursuant to the applicable contract, we worked actively to remarket the remaining systems subject to PCG with a wide variety of potential customers, as more fully described above under Note 3 —Revenue, in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Report. Given the uncertainty of collection from the original customers of due and unpaid amounts in those cases where we believe we have enforceable rights of recovery, we believed the likelihood for collection of the accounts receivable outstanding relating to hardware subject to these PCG’s was no longer probable. Accordingly, we wrote-off the remaining receivables of $104.1 million during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has entered into an arrangement to recover $3.5 million of the receivables previously written off. We are pursuing all potential remedies with respect to its enforceable rights under applicable contracts.

We, through an indirect wholly-owned development subsidiary, entered into strategic joint ventures with qualified third parties to develop select energy storage generation projects (“DevCo Projects”), as more fully described above under Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this report. These projects sometimes required significant upfront investment by us and involved a high degree of risk. If a DevCo Project fails to reach completion or is significantly delayed, we could lose all or a portion of our development capital investment. See“We Face Risks Related to our DevCo Business Model” in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information about certain risks related to these DevCo Projects. We are not making further investments in these DevCo Projects, but have exposure on existing investments.

Previous wording

Deployment of intermittent resources has accelerated over the last decade, and today, wind and solar have become a low cost energy source. We expect the cost of generating renewable energy to continue to decline and deployments of energy storage systems to increase. As renewable energy sources of energy production are expected to represent a larger proportion of energy generation, grid instability rises due to their intermittency, which can be addressed by energy storage solutions. The IRA is expected to further increase the deployment of renewable energy assets, provided that the law or its implementation is not modified or restricted in a way that counters these effects. We are continuing to evaluate the IRA and its requirements, including Treasury Department guidance, and its application to our business and our customers.

Although we are not regulated as a utility, the market for our products and services is heavily influenced by federal, state, and local government statutes and regulations concerning electricity. These statutes and regulations, like the IRA, affect electricity pricing, net metering, incentives, taxation, competition with utilities, and the interconnection of customer-owned electricity generation. In the United States and internationally, governments regularly modify these statutes and regulations and acting through state utility or public service commissions, regularly change and adopt different rates for commercial customers. These changes can positively or negatively affect our ability to deliver cost savings to customers.
