THE COMPANY: With $9 billion in managed assets, Hannon Armstrong provides capital to companies in energy efficiency, renewable energy, and other sustainable infrastructure markets.

THE REVELATION: On July 12, 2022, Muddy Waters Capital released an investigative report concluding that Hannon Armstrong’s “accounting is so complex and misleading that its financial statements are effectively meaningless.” Muddy Waters explained that Hannon Armstrong “misleadingly inflates [General Accepted Accounting Principles (‘GAAP’) earnings three ways: 1) Through a loophole in the arcana of accounting for renewables subsidies, [Hannon Armstrong] books non-cash unrealizable income relating to third parties’ tax credits that will be reversed; 2) [Hannon Armstrong] produces non-cash income by manipulating the discount rate it applies to residual assets to implausibly low levels, thereby inflating its gains on securitizations; and, 3) [Hannon Armstrong] books interest income from non-cash ‘Paid in Kind’ (‘PIK’) interest payments, which are essentially IOUs from stressed borrowers.” Muddy Waters further concluded that Hannon Armstrong should have adjusted its GAAP income down by $362.7 million to a net loss of $235.4 million at the midpoint.

On this news, the price of Hannon Armstrong common stock fell by more than 19%.
