ENLIGHT RENEWABLE ENERGY REPORTS

 

FIRST QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

All of the amounts disclosed in this press release are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted

 

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL, May 11, 2023 – Enlight Renewable Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: ENLT, TASE: ENLT) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

 

The Company’s quarterly earnings materials and a link to the earnings webcast, which will be held today at 8:00 AM ET, may be found on the investor relations section of Enlight’s website at https://enlightenergy.co.il/data/financial-reports/

 

“We delivered record results in the first quarter of 2023, with Revenue up 103%, Net Income up 275% and Adjusted EBITDA^* up 118%, driven by the 810 MW of projects that went into operation over the past year. Moreover, we believe that we have strong visibility on future growth. With a further 1 GW and 1.7 GWh of projects under construction and an additional 2.1 GW and 1.8 GWh of projects in pre-construction, all of which are projected to reach commercial operation by the end of 2025, we believe our growth is poised to continue apace over the coming years”, said Gilad Yavetz, CEO of Enlight Renewable Energy.

 

“In addition, we believe our projects can earn above-market returns due to our expertise in greenfield development, coupled with the positive regulatory backdrop of the Inflation Reduction Act. During the quarter we secured 480 MW of power purchase agreement (“PPA”) amendments with an average price increase of 30% and signed 475 MW of new PPAs at attractive prices. This demonstrates our ability to maintain above-market returns, despite the higher interest rate environment,” Yavetz added.

 

“We are also pleased to provide color on our funding capabilities post our U.S. initial public offering. With existing resources, we believe we can complete the entirety of our Mature Projects, with excess cash to spare. Moreover, we believe we have the financial flexibility to accelerate our growth thereafter, at our stated project deployment guidance of 1.5 GW per year, based on our current operating plan. We have several financing tools available to us to fund anticipated future growth, including distributions generated from our projects, proceeds from the sale of a minority ownership stake of some of our U.S. projects, issuance of unsecured bonds and project debt refinancings, without requiring additional equity financing. We believe that our successful development and execution efforts coupled with the U.S. IPO has created an autonomous machine that is in prime position to capture the massive opportunity we see ahead.”

 

First Quarter Highlights

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overview of Financial and Operating Results

 

Revenue

 

 

---

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company’s revenues increased to $71m, up from $35m last year, a growth rate of 103% year over year. Growth was mainly driven by the revenue contribution of new operational projects, as well as the inflation indexation embedded in PPAs for already-operating projects.

 

Since this period last year, 810 MW of projects started selling power, including Emek Habacha, Gecama and Björnberget. These projects collectively contributed $32m of revenue. Björnberget made its first substantial contribution in the first quarter, generating $3m of revenue as turbines were gradually commissioned during the quarter.

 

The Company also benefited from inflation indexation embedded in its PPAs, which contributed an additional $2m of revenue during the quarter. This reflected an average indexation of 6.3% across 483 MW of PPAs for projects that have been operational for a full year. 42% of the Company’s operational projects include PPAs with annual inflation indexation, which we believe is an advantage in today’s inflationary environment.

 

Finally, growth was also partly driven by the recognition of all proceeds from the sale of electricity by the Halutziot project as revenue. Halutziot was reclassified out of Financial Assets in the second quarter of 2022 and contributed an additional $2m to revenue in the first quarter of 2023.

 

These positive impacts totaling $36m were offset by weaker currency exchange rates (“FX”), which had a $2m impact during the first quarter.

 

Financial performance was well-balanced between Western Europe, Central-Eastern Europe (“CEE”) and Israel, with 76% of revenues in the first quarter of 2023 denominated in Euros, 2% in another European currency and 22% denominated in Israeli shekel. In the second half of 2023, revenue is expected to include a substantial contribution denominated in U.S. dollars, following the planned completion of Apex Solar, the Company’s first project in the United States. Apex Solar is expected to come online by the end of the second quarter of 2023.

 

In addition to the above, the Company sold $3m of electricity in projects treated as financial assets in the quarter. Under IFRS this revenue is accounted for as financing income or other non-P&L metrics.

 

Net Income

 

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company’s net income increased to $33m, up from $9m year over year, a growth rate of 275%. $14m of the growth was driven by new projects. The residual growth of $11m was driven by interest income on deposits as well as foreign exchange impacts (strengthening USD relative to the NIS) on our cash and cash equivalents.

 

 

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA more than doubled to $54m compared to $25m for the same period in 2022.

 

The increase was driven by the same factors which affected our revenue increase in the same period, offset by a $3m increase in overhead as the team scales to accommodate rapid growth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anticipated Funding Capabilities

 

Supported by the strong financial position resulting from its U.S. IPO, the Company is pleased to present its anticipated funding capabilities. Utilizing existing resources, including cash on hand and distributions generated from its operational projects, the Company believes that it has sufficient equity capital to complete the entirety of the Mature Project portfolio of 4.5 GW generation and 3.5 GWh storage, all based on the current operating plan and its current assumptions.

 

---

Moreover, we believe the Company is well positioned to construct an additional 1.5 GW of capacity per annum as per its project deployment guidance from 2026 onward based on the current operating plan - without requiring additional equity. The Company expects this can be financed through the distributions generated from the Company’s Mature Portfolio of 4.5 GW and 3.5 GWh, together with a wide array of financing tools, including the sale of a minority ownership stake of some of the Company’s projects in the U.S., where it holds 100% effective ownership, the issuance of unsecured bonds where the Company benefits from an A2 local credit rating in Israel, and the refinancing of some of the Company’s project level debt.

 

Additional detail is provided in the investor presentation posted to the investor relations section of the Company’s website.

 

Market Updates: United States

 

The Company delivered meaningful progress on its large U.S. portfolio during the first quarter of 2023.

 

The Company’s Apex Solar project located in southwestern Montana is nearing completion. Module and other equipment deliveries are on schedule and related construction timelines are on track. We expect to finalize commissioning and reach commercial operation at the end of June. Our US asset management team is prepared to support commercial operations for Apex Solar beginning in the second half of 2023.

 

In New Mexico, our 360 MW / 1,200 MWh Atrisco Solar project is advancing steadily. Solar module deliveries commenced in April and continue at a steady pace. Site work is on schedule. Commercial operation is expected by the end of the second quarter 2024.

 

The Atrisco project financing is also advancing steadily. The Company is negotiating arrangements with several lenders to provide a construction facility exceeding $800m, permanent back leverage of $380m and tax equity of $450m. The banks include some of the largest financial institutions in the renewable sector, highlighting the strength of the project. We are on target to reach financial close before the end of the second quarter and expect to announce further details upon closing. With Atrisco, the Company is demonstrating its ability to maintain strong project economics and predictable execution.

 

In Arizona, the Company is making big strides on the CO Bar project. At 1,200 MW solar and 824 MWh storage, CO Bar is the first of the Company’s gigawatt sized projects to mature. In the first quarter, the Company contracted an incremental 475 MW on the project, bringing the total contracted solar at CO Bar to nearly 1 GW. A PPA on the remaining 200 MW is presently under negotiations and that PPA would add the first 824 MWh of storage on the project. More details are anticipated to be announced in Q3. We are pleased with our utility partners on the project, and we plan to announce their details in the second half of 2023.

 

On the development front, the CO Bar project has primary land control and permitting in place. The system impact study (SIS) for the interconnection is also complete, and the facilities study is nearing finalization. By signing and funding an E&P (Engineering and Procurement) agreement with the interconnecting utility, the project is on an accelerated pace to complete engineering for the interconnection and order any long lead-time equipment in advance of finalizing and signing the interconnection agreement (the LGIA). CO Bar is expected to start construction in the fourth quarter of 2023 and achieve COD in phases through 2025. The project stands to benefit from the IRA, including the production tax credit (PTC) and the possibility of a domestic content adder. There is also potential to contract an additional 3.2 GWh of storage at the project.

 

Based on its interpretation of the published U.S. Treasury guidance, the Company can now estimate the percentage of its U.S. portfolio which may benefit from the energy community tax credit adder under the Inflation Reduction Act. The energy community adder gives a 10% multiplier to the project’s PTC value and a 10% addition to the ITC rate. The Company estimates that at least 25% of its portfolio in the U.S. may qualify based on the guidance. Note that the 25% estimate does not include any projects that may qualify as energy zones based on the brownfield criteria. We are reviewing the brownfield possibilities in detail and will have a more informed view on which projects potentially qualify in the next several months.

 

The Company’s diversified supply chain is designed to meet its growing module supply needs. We have supply commitments for up to 2 GW of modules from India through 2025, and access to additional volume out of Southeast Asia during the waiver period.

 

Finally, the Company’s advanced portfolio and market specific knowledge is enabling it to avoid the increasing interconnection queue congestion across the United States. With more than 8.7 GW of projects (+240 MW versus Q4 2022) past system impact study--the critical phase of the interconnection study process--the Company believes it is well positioned to continue and even accelerate its growth in the United States.

 

Europe

 

The Company is benefiting from strong power pricing in Europe. For example, in the first quarter of 2023, Gecama (Spain) benefited from an average net price of 85 EUR/MWh, 85% of which was hedged. Electricity demand is high, and competing sources still suffer from high input costs. Notably, natural gas prices remain significantly above historical levels.

 

Project Björnberget (Sweden), at 372 MW is one of the largest onshore wind farms in Europe. The commissioning of the turbines continues according to plan. In Sweden, the Company can generate revenues from the sale of electricity for operational turbines even before the project reaches full COD. In the first quarter, Björnberget generated $3m of revenues. We expect the project to ramp up to full production by the beginning of the third quarter 2023.

 

On the development front, Gecama Solar (Spain), a 250 MW solar and 200 MWh storage project advanced as planned. With real estate and interconnection already secured, the project awaits its environmental and construction permit. We have received indications from the regulator that the project is feasible from an environmental perspective, reducing the risk of project delays. Construction is expected to commence by the end of 2023 with COD expected by year end 2024.

 

Israel

 

Genesis Wind, the largest renewable energy project in Israel, which has now been expanded to 207 MW (from 189 MW), completed erection of all its wind turbines. Commissioning tests are in full swing with COD on schedule by the end of the third quarter 2023.

 

The Company continues to progress construction on Solar + Storage 1 & 2 project clusters, totaling 252 MW and 483 MWh of storage. Projects are expected to be commercialized ahead of the schedule presented in the fourth quarter of 2022, with Solar + Storage 1 expected to reach full COD by end of 2023 and Solar + Storage 2 by end of the first half of 2024. Corporate PPA negotiations are ongoing with several major offtakers.

 

In May 2023, the Company signed an agreement to sell two small projects totaling 25 MW at a valuation of $465,000 per MW. This is expected to contribute $5.8m of net proceeds and $4.7m of pre-tax income, as capital is recycled to fund future growth.

 

Balance Sheet

 

The Company benefits from a strong and diversified liquidity position, with 82% of cash and cash equivalents held in U.S. dollars or Euros, with minimal exposure to the Israeli shekel.

2023 Financial Outlook

 

Commenting on the outlook, Enlight Chief Financial Officer Nir Yehuda noted, “We are pleased to affirm our Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2023. This guidance is based on our current operational portfolio and planned CODs over the course of the year. Our Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance does not include certain proceeds from the sale of electricity for our projects treated as Financial Assets. Similarly, our Adjusted EBITDA outlook does not include tax credits expected to be recognized upon COD of Apex Solar.”

 

Details of the 2023 outlook include:

 

 

 

 

* The section titled “Non-IFRS Financial Measures” below contains a description of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure discussed in this press release. A reconciliation between Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income, its most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, is contained in the tables below. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort because items that impact this IFRS financial measure are not within the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. These items may include, but are not limited to, forward-looking depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, other income, finance income, finance expenses, share of losses of equity accounted investees and taxes on income. Such information may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on the Company’s future financial results. We note that “Adjusted EBITDA” measures that we disclosed in previous filings in Israel were not comparable to “Adjusted EBITDA” disclosed in the release and in our future filings.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

 

This release presents Adjusted EBITDA, a financial metric, which is provided as a complement to the results provided in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”). A reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial information to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is provided in the accompanying tables found at the end of this release.

 

We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net Income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, other income, finance income, finance expenses, share of losses of equity accounted investees and taxes on income. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is indicative of operational performance and ongoing profitability and uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance and for planning and forecasting purposes.

 

Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial information presented under IFRS. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-IFRS financial measures versus comparable financial measures determined under IFRS. For example, other companies in our industry may calculate the non-IFRS financial measures that we use differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. All of these limitations could reduce the usefulness of our non-IFRS financial measures as analytical tools. Investors are encouraged to review the related IFRS financial measure, Net Income, and the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA provided below to Net Income and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
