“Nextracker delivered another strong quarter across all key financial metrics and saw continued market share momentum,” said Dan Shugar, founder and CEO of Nextracker. “We are innovating the next generation of energy technology and announced this morning the acquisitions of three robotics and AI technologies. As electricity demand accelerates globally, our focus on innovation is creating a broad solar technology platform.”

“Our GAAP operating margin of 22% reflects the benefits of disciplined execution and ongoing investment in high-value technologies,” said Chuck Boynton, CFO of Nextracker. “Innovations like NX Horizon Hail Pro and NX Horizon-XTR are helping to improve customer outcomes while driving greater efficiency and scalability across our operations. This quarter’s performance underscores the strength of our business model and ability to deliver profitable growth.”

Adjusted EBITDA range of $750 million to $810 million, which excludes approximately $130 million for stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs, and net intangible amortization.

Adjusted Diluted EPS range of $3.96 to $4.27, which excludes approximately $0.72 for stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs, and net intangible amortization, net of impacts for tax.

Our outlook assumes the current U.S. policy environment remains in effect, and in addition, that permitting processes and timelines will remain consistent with historical levels. The Company is closely monitoring potential updates to safe harbor provisions and other regulatory actions, which could impact project timing, investment decisions and our financial results.

Evolving Nextracker Solar Technology Platform

Nextracker’s strategy is to incorporate complementary technologies around its market-leading tracker systems with the objective of lowering costs for customers, enabling accelerated solar power plant construction timelines, and enhancing system operating performance and long-term reliability. The company believes this strategy will help create new revenue and profit opportunities and strengthen its competitive position and customer stickiness of its core tracker business via integration of complementary features and benefits.

As such, in previous quarters Nextracker announced acquisitions in the areas of foundations and eBOS. Additionally, today the company also announced three prior advanced robotic and AI acquisitions made during the past four quarters with an aggregate investment of over $40 million, including future contingent earnout consideration. These technologies, from real-time monitoring to robotic cleaning and 3D site mapping, integrate directly with the company’s control and monitoring systems to help customers optimize performance, reduce O&M costs, and lower risk. Nextracker believes the expansion of its AI, machine learning, and advanced robotics will have far-reaching impact across its business.

Notes

To supplement Nextracker’s unaudited selected financial data presented consistent with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges and gains, including adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted free cash flow. These supplemental measures exclude certain legal and other charges, stock-based compensation expense and intangible amortization, other discrete events as applicable and the related tax effects. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the amounts associated with Nextracker’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Nextracker’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of the Company’s performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to the Company’s ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, for calculating return on investment, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

• the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results;
• the ability to better identify trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analysis;
• a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business; and
• an easier way to compare the Company’s operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of each of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding each of these individual items in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of unvested restricted share unit and stock option awards granted to employees. The Company believes that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of its operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of award types. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on its operating results.

Intangible amortization consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. The Company considers its operating results without these charges when evaluating its ongoing performance and forecasting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that the assessment of its operations excluding these costs is relevant to its assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of its competitors.

Acquisition costs consist primarily of nonrecurring transaction costs for business acquisitions.

Adjustment for taxes relates to the tax effects of the various adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income and certain adjustments related to non-recurring settlements of tax contingencies or other non-recurring tax charges, when applicable.
