Record 155 MWe Energy Assets Placed into Operation During the Quarter

Adjusting 2024 Guidance

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenues of $438.0 million
  • Net income attributable to common shareholders of $5.0 million
  • GAAP EPS of $0.09
  • Non-GAAP EPS of $0.10
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $45.1 million, reflecting the impact of SoCal Ed cost budget revisions of $6.6 million

Ameresco, Inc. (NYSE:AMRC), a leading cleantech integrator specializing in energy efficiency and renewable energy, today announced financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Company also furnished supplemental information in conjunction with this press release in a Current Report on Form 8-K. The supplemental information, which includes Non-GAAP financial measures, has been posted to the “Investors” section of the Company’s website at www.ameresco.com. Reconciliations of Non-GAAP measures to the appropriate GAAP measures are included herein. All financial result comparisons made are against the prior year period unless otherwise noted.

CEO George Sakellaris commented, “the second quarter was another quarter of substantial business achievements for Ameresco as we delivered excellent year-on-year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 34% and 21%, respectively, led by the exceptional strength of our projects business while also placing a record number of assets into operation. At the same time, we continued to generate significant new business opportunities across our platform, reflecting how well aligned Ameresco’s expertise and capabilities are with market demand. We continue to be disciplined with business selection and benefit from the actions we have taken to optimize our organization to capture the significant growth and profit opportunities ahead of us.

“Our second quarter results were impacted by $6.6 million of cost budget revisions on the Southern California Edison Company (SCE) projects as they continued to stretch out longer than anticipated. SCE has approved the performance testing and together we are working closely on the final checklist for substantial completion for two of the three projects. Commissioning and testing activities have begun on the third project, which was significantly impacted by the heavy rainfall in California in 2023. This last site is expected to reach substantial completion in September of 2024.

“We generated significant new business in the second quarter, adding to our record backlog and future revenue streams. Our total Project Backlog reached a record $4.4 billion at the end of the quarter, an increase of 36% or nearly $1.2 billion from one year ago levels with contracted backlog growing even faster at 51%. We placed a record 155 MWe of assets into operation in Q2, bringing the year-to-date total to 168 MWe, representing significant progress toward achieving our 200 MWe target for this year. Our record backlog, together with our revenue visibility from our growing Energy Assets and O&M businesses give the Company approximately $8.3 billion of total revenue visibility.”

(1) Net Income (Loss) represents net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders.

(2) Numbers in table may not sum due to rounding.

Total revenue increased 33.9% to $438.0 million led by 44.5% growth in Projects revenue, as our focus on execution and conversion of our backlog continued to yield results. Energy Assets revenue grew 6.8% driven by growth in operating assets placed in service, improved production and stronger RIN prices. O&M revenue increased 13.7% reflecting a solid attach rate and execution on our O&M contracts. Other revenue increased 9.5%. Gross margin of 14.9% was impacted by the $6.6 million cost budget revisions on the SCE projects and a mix of larger lower-margin projects. The year-to-date impact of the SCE cost budget revisions now total approximately $7.3 million. Net income attributable to common shareholders was $5.0 million compared to net income of $6.4 million during the same period last year due to higher interest and depreciation expenses, with GAAP and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.09 and $0.10, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA of $45.1 million increased 20.7%.

(4) Net MWe capacity includes only our share of any jointly owned assets

  • Ameresco’s Assets in Development ended the quarter at 641 MWe. After subtracting Ameresco’s partners’ minority interests, Ameresco’s owned capacity of Assets in Development at quarter end was 635 MWe.
  • Ameresco brought 155 MWe of Energy Assets into operations, including the 42 MWe AC solar and 42 MWe/168 MWh battery storage from Kūpono Solar and over 50 MWe battery storage from 5 of the 8 United Power sites.
  • Europe is also quickly adopting BESS technology as seen by our 300MWe/624MWh Cellarhead project in the U.K. The project represents one of the largest BESS installations in the U.K. and also includes an O&M contract.
  • The strength of the battery market continues as Ameresco added 50 MW of BESS to the Assets in Development, and $250 million of BESS to the project backlog during the quarter.
  • City street light conversions to LED technology continues to generate a lot of interest given the quick pay-back period to cities and municipalities driven by both lower energy expense as well as lower maintenance expense. Ameresco will be converting over 30,000 streetlights in Henderson, NV. The Company also won an award for its LED streetlighting, controls and networking project, in partnership with Memphis Light, Gas and Water and the City of Memphis.

Subsequent Event

Today Ameresco announced that Doran Hole has resigned as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer to pursue other opportunities. “We appreciate the contributions that Doran has made during his tenure with us. Doran has been a valuable member of our executive leadership team, and we wish him the best with his future endeavors,” said George Sakellaris. Mr. Hole will continue to serve as CFO until August 30, 2024, at which time Mark Chiplock, Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, will be promoted to Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and continue to serve as Chief Accounting Officer.

Summary and Outlook

“We continue to benefit from the actions we have taken to optimize our business structure and focus our resources on capturing the most attractive and profitable opportunities. Demand for our solutions remains robust, and Ameresco is well positioned to thrive within most business and economic environments given the increasing need for infrastructure resilience and the cost effectiveness of our solutions,” Mr. Sakellaris concluded.

Ameresco has adjusted its full year 2024 guidance which is included in the table below. We are increasing our revenue range based on the financial performance for the first half of the year and our visibility for the remainder of the year. Our new gross margin range reflects the expected full year impact of the cost budget revisions on the SCE projects of approximately $10 million. Our new guidance range reflects revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 27% and 35%, respectively, at the midpoints. The Company still expects to place approximately 200 MWe of energy assets in service for all of 2024, of which 168 MWe have already achieved commercial operations. Our expected capex for 2024 remains $350 million to $400 million, the majority of which we continue to expect to fund with project financing.

(1) Although net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, this table reconciles adjusted EBITDA to operating income because we are not able to calculate forward-looking net income without unreasonable efforts due to significant uncertainties with respect to the impact of accounting for our redeemable non-controlling interests and taxes.

Exhibit A: Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use the Non-GAAP financial measures defined and discussed below to provide investors and others with useful supplemental information to our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. These Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, please see Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Non-GAAP Financial Guidance in the tables above.

We understand that, although measures similar to these Non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluation of companies, they have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures or an analysis of our results of operations as reported under GAAP. To properly and prudently evaluate our business, we encourage investors to review our GAAP financial statements included above, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to common shareholders, including impact from redeemable non-controlling interests, before income tax (benefit) provision, other expenses net, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, accretion of asset retirement obligations, contingent consideration expense, stock-based compensation expense, energy asset impairment, restructuring and other charges, gain or loss on sale of equity investment, and gain or loss upon deconsolidation of a variable interest entity. We believe adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance for the following reasons: adjusted EBITDA and similar Non-GAAP measures are widely used by investors to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon financing and accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the methods by which assets were acquired; securities analysts often use adjusted EBITDA and similar Non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies; and by comparing our adjusted EBITDA in different historical periods, investors can evaluate our operating results without the additional variations of depreciation and amortization expense, accretion of asset retirement obligations, contingent consideration expense, stock-based compensation expense, impact from redeemable non-controlling interests, restructuring and asset impairment charges. We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA stated as a percentage of revenue.

Our management uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as measures of operating performance, because they do not include the impact of items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance; for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget; to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of the business; to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; and in communications with the board of directors and investors concerning our financial performance.

Non-GAAP Net Income and EPS

We define Non-GAAP net income and earnings per share (EPS) to exclude certain discrete items that management does not consider representative of our ongoing operations, including energy asset impairment, restructuring and other charges, impact from redeemable non-controlling interest, gain or loss on sale of equity investment, and gain or loss upon deconsolidation of a variable interest entity. We consider Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP EPS to be important indicators of our operational strength and performance of our business because they eliminate the effects of events that are not part of the Company's core operations.

Adjusted Cash from Operations

We define adjusted cash from operations as cash flows from operating activities plus proceeds from Federal ESPC projects. Cash received in payment of Federal ESPC projects is treated as a financing cash flow under GAAP due to the unusual financing structure for these projects. These cash flows, however, correspond to the revenue generated by these projects. Thus, we believe that adjusting operating cash flow to include the cash generated by our Federal ESPC projects provides investors with a useful measure for evaluating the cash generating ability of our core operating business. Our management uses adjusted cash from operations as a measure of liquidity because it captures all sources of cash associated with our revenue generated by operations.
