Investor presentation summary
3 Sep, 2026Market opportunity and growth drivers
U.S. power demand is projected to grow 28% from 2024 to 2034, with solar and storage as the fastest solutions to meet this demand.
Over $518 billion is expected to be invested in solar and battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the U.S. from 2025 to 2034.
The company has installed more than 22 GW of capacity and manages over 23 GW under O&M agreements.
Backlog reached a record $8.9 billion as of June 30, 2026, reflecting 44% year-over-year growth.
The company operates debt-free, providing significant capital allocation flexibility.
Business model and service offering
Provides full lifecycle services: engineering, procurement, construction (EPC), commissioning, and ongoing O&M for solar, BESS, substations, and transmission.
Recurring revenue is driven by 5-year O&M contracts with annual renewals, compounding growth from new installations and the installed base.
O&M business offers a 45% greater lifetime revenue opportunity compared to EPC alone.
Embedded revenue opportunity from existing O&M contracts is estimated at $8.6 billion over project lifetimes.
Over 500 power plants have been built, with projects across the U.S.
Financial performance and backlog
Revenue for 2Q26 grew 77% year-over-year to $1.63 billion; first half 2026 revenue up 72%.
Adjusted EBITDA for 2Q26 was $120 million, up 36% year-over-year.
Adjusted gross margin for 2Q26 was 15.2%, impacted by a shift in incentive compensation classification.
Backlog includes $2.5 billion attributable to projects with a BESS component.
Only $600 million of the $8.6 billion embedded O&M opportunity is currently in backlog.
