-  Delivered Strong Free Cash Flow in Q4 2024-  Achieved High-Margin Expansion Driven by IPP and DSA Businesses , /PRNewswire/ -- Emeren Group Ltd ("Emeren" or the "Company") (www.emeren.com) (NYSE: SOL), a leading global solar project developer, owner, and operator, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024, highlighting key growth catalysts for 2025. Fellow Shareholders, 2024 was a year of resilience, disciplined execution, and strategic growth for Emeren. Despite currency headwinds and project sale delays, we successfully monetized renewable energy assets, expanded our energy storage footprint, and generated positive free cash flow in Q4. Our Independent Power Producer (IPP) and Development Service Agreement (DSA) segments provided high margins and stable cash flows, while strategic project monetization strengthened our financial position. We ended the year with $50.0 million in cash, up 40% sequentially, positioning us for continued growth in 2025. Resilient Growth Driving Free Cash Flow In Q4 2024, we generated $10.5 million in operating cash flow and over $5 million in free cash flow, further strengthening our financial position amid a challenging market landscape. For the full year, we achieved $6.9 million in adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating disciplined execution and a high-margin business model. Our capital-light model fueled profitable growth while supporting investment. Strong liquidity and efficiency position us to capitalize on 2025 project sales and opportunities. Executing High-Margin Expansion Our resilient high-margin IPP and DSA segments enabled us to deliver $34.6 million in revenue and $4.8 million in gross profit, achieving a solid 14% gross margin in Q4. While FX losses due to the strength of U.S. dollar impacted net income, our operating loss improved by 35% Y/Y in Q4, reflecting strong cost discipline. Although project timing delays in the U.S. and Europe affected Q4 revenue recognition, these projects remain on track to close in 1H 2025, ensuring near-term revenue realization. Q4 2024 Highlights We achieved significant milestones across key markets in Q4, strengthening our position in renewable energy monetization and energy storage. Europe: Completed the COD sale of a 17 MW solar project portfolio in Poland, with 15 MW under a PPA, reinforcing our presence in a key market. Executed a 462 MW DSA of battery energy storage system (BESS) in Italy with Arpinge, expanding our footprint in energy storage. Finalized the sale of 65 MW of solar projects to Trina in Germany through a mixed DSA/SPA structure, reflecting the strength of our development partnerships. United States: Closed the COD sale of a 2.8 MW community solar project to Altus Power, demonstrating progress in the distributed generation segment. China: Commissioned 18 MWh BESS projects, successfully integrating them into Huaneng Power International's Virtual Power Plant (VPP) platform, strengthening our participation in China's evolving energy market. These achievements highlight our ability to execute across multiple regions, ensuring efficient project monetization, expanding our renewable energy portfolio, and strengthening contracted cash flow generation. Business Line Performance DSA The DSA business serves as a cornerstone of our high-margin growth strategy, providing strong revenue visibility while enabling us to monetize projects at early- and mid-development stages. We extended our DSA model into key markets, generating approximately $9.5 million (28% of Q4 revenue), primarily from Italy and Germany.  For the full year, we generated approximately $19 million in DSA revenue, reflecting successful contract execution and geographic expansion. As of December 31, 2024, we have secured DSA contracts with nine partners for 40 projects totaling over 2.8 GW, comprising 85% BESS and 15% PV. These agreements are expected to generate approximately $84 million in contracted revenue over the next two to three years, in addition to $19 million recognized in 2024, further reinforcing our financial stability. Additionally, about 2.5 GW of DSAs are under negotiation, representing a potential revenue pipeline of over $100 million. With 75% of our DSA pipeline concentrated in Europe, we are well-positioned to benefit from strong regulatory support for renewable energy and increasing demand for energy storage solutions. Solar Power Project Development In addition to completing major transactions in Poland and the U.S., we were active in markets with strong long-term demand for renewable energy. Our solar development business continued to drive monetization opportunities, leveraging our expertise in advancing projects from development to sale. In 2024, we successfully monetized approximately 200 MW of solar PV projects, including 65 MW in Germany, 57 MW in France, 42 MW in Spain, 17 MW in Poland, 16 MW in China, and 3 MW in the U.S. We also monetized 1.3 GW of BESS projects, with 1,210 MW in Italy, 72 MW in the U.S., and 18 MW in China. These achievements reflect our disciplined approach to capital recycling while maintaining a robust development pipeline to support future growth, reinforcing our position as a leader in the sector. IPP The IPP segment was a cornerstone of our profitability, providing stable and predictable cash flows from long-term operating assets. In 2024, IPP revenue accounted for approximately 31% of total revenue and 64% of total gross profit, underscoring its high-margin contribution to our financial performance. The segment generated $5.4 million in Q4, down from Q3 due to seasonality. Our well-balanced IPP portfolio spans Europe and China, with a growing U.S. presence. In Q4, we optimized assets, including Branston in the U.K., and advanced our energy storage integration strategy. Notably, our newly commissioned 18 MWh BESS in China is now fully integrated into Huaneng Power International's Virtual Power Plant (VPP) platform, enhancing grid stability and efficiency. With China's merchant power market opening in 2025, our BESS assets are well-positioned to capitalize on price arbitrage, further strengthening long-term profitability and financial resilience. Full-Year 2024 Financial Summary For full-year 2024, we generated $92.1 million in revenue and $24.1 million in gross profit, achieving a 26% gross margin. We reported an operating loss of $0.5 million, while non-cash FX losses resulted in a net loss[1] of $12.5 million. Despite FX headwinds, operating cash flow improved significantly toward breakeven, reaching negative $4.2 million compared to negative $23.5 million a year ago.  Adjusted EBITDA rose to $6.9 million, reflecting disciplined financial execution.  Over the year, we successfully monetized a significant volume of renewable energy assets, including solar and battery storage projects, strengthening our financial position and reinforcing our capital-efficient business model. Our disciplined execution, successful project monetization, and strengthened financial position provide a strong foundation to scale our business efficiently while maintaining capital discipline. [1] Net loss attributed to Emeren Group Ltd. Outlook & Catalysts Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to execute our growth strategy and deliver strong financial performance in 2025. The delay in Q4 revenue recognition does not reflect a loss of business, but rather timing issues, with the sale of these projects expected to close in 1H 2025. With a highly contracted revenue base, continued expansion of our DSA and IPP businesses, and strong tailwinds in the renewable energy sector, we are positioned for sustained profitability and long-term shareholder value creation. Key drivers supporting our 2025 financial outlook include: Strong contracted revenue base: We have secured about $84 million in contracted DSA revenue, with an additional over $100 million in potential revenue under negotiation, reinforcing long-term cash flow visibility. Profitability from high-margin segments: Our DSA and IPP businesses are key profit drivers, contributing strong gross margins and stable cash flows. With increasing energy storage integration and disciplined execution, our emphasis on high-margin growth drives sustained profitability and financial strength. Robust solar PV and BESS monetization pipeline: With 75% of our DSA pipeline concentrated in Europe, as well as strong solar and energy storage project sales in key markets, we are well-positioned to capitalize on growing demand. Overall, by the end of Q4 2024, our pipeline included over 4.3 GW of advanced-stage storage projects and 2.4 GW of advanced-stage solar PV projects, reinforcing our long-term growth potential. Expansion in BESS and merchant power trading: Our newly commissioned 18 MWh BESS in China is now fully integrated into the Huaneng Power International VPP platform, and we are set to benefit from China's merchant power market opening in 2025, unlocking new revenue streams through energy arbitrage. We expect full-year 2025 revenue to be in the range of $80 million to $100 million, with a gross margin of approximately 30% to 33%. IPP revenue is anticipated to be between $28 million and $30 million, with a gross margin of approximately 50%. Our DSA segment is expected to contribute between $35 million and $45 million in revenue. We also expect to achieve positive operating cash flow in 2025. For the first half of 2025, we anticipate revenue in the range of $30 million to $35 million, with a gross margin of approximately 30% to 33%. Full Year 2024 Financial Highlights:  Revenue of $92.1 million, down 13% Y/Y, reflecting project timing shifts despite strong execution in high-margin segments. IPP and DSA contributed 52% of total revenue, which demonstrates solid and stable revenue visibility. Maintained a strong 26.2% gross margin, despite a slight Y/Y decline in gross profit to $24.1 million. Operating loss narrowed significantly to $0.5 million from $8.7 million in 2023, reflecting improved profitability and cost discipline. Adjusted EBITDA surged 102% Y/Y to $6.9 million, demonstrating strong margin expansion in DSA and IPP businesses.

Gross margin was 13.9%, down from 43.8% in Q3 2024 but up from 11.3% in Q4 2023. The year-over-year improvement reflects the continued strength of our high-margin IPP and DSA businesses. Operating Expense  Operating expenses were $9.2 million, up from $3.5 million in Q3 2024 but down from $11.8 million in Q4 2023. The annual decline was primarily due to fewer write-offs and the absence of asset impairment losses. Net loss attributable to Emeren Group Ltd's common shareholders Net loss attributable to Emeren Group Ltd's common shareholders was $11.8 million, compared to net income of $4.8 million in Q3 2024 and net loss of $2.0 million in Q4 2023.

Cash Flow Cash provided by operating activities was $10.4 million; cash used in investing activities was $5.0 million, and cash provided by financing activities was $2.8 million. Financial Position Cash and cash equivalents at the end of Q4 2024 were $50.0 million compared to $35.8 million in Q3 2024. Net asset value (NAV) is approximately $5.9 per ADS. Our debt-to-asset ratio at the end of Q4 2024 was 11.23%, compared to 10.18% at the end of Q3 2024. Conclusion The renewable energy sector is benefiting from strong tailwinds, driven by the global shift toward sustainability and the increasing role of solar and energy storage to meet rising power demand. Our disciplined execution, robust contracted revenue base, and expanding presence in high-margin segments position us for sustained growth. As we enter 2025, we remain focused on leveraging our strengths in Development Service Agreement (DSA), Independent Power Producer (IPP), and energy storage to drive long-term value creation.

To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and decision-making surrounding pro-forma operations, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP financial measures of earnings. EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus discount of electricity subsidy in China, plus share-based compensation, plus impairment of long-lived assets, plus loss/(gain) on disposal of assets, plus foreign exchange loss/(gain). Our management uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA as financial measures to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to access the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measures that are derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. We find these measures especially useful when reviewing pro-forma results of operations, which include large non-cash impairment of long-lived assets and loss on disposal of assets. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.  Appendix 4: Adjusted EBITDA     Three Months Ended    Twelve Months Ended  Dec 31, 2024 Sep 30, 2024 Dec 31, 2023 Dec 31, 2024 Dec 31, 2023   (in thousands)    Net income (loss)  $       (12,542) $          5,674 $         (3,481) $       (11,610) $         (5,431)  Income tax expenses (benefit)  (1,124) 647 2,050 2,021 2,529  Interest expenses (income), net   231 431 574 559 411  Depreciation & Amortization  1,917 1,781 1,979 6,919 7,438  EBITDA  $       (11,518) $          8,533 $          1,122 $         (2,111) $          4,947  Discount of electricity subsidy in China  (35) (83) 603 272 656  Share based compensation  133 106 203 370 1,443  Loss on disposal of  property, plant and equipment  - - 616 - 2,128  Interest income of discounted electricity subsidy in China  (2) 130 60 (198) 109  Foreign exchange loss (gain)  9,047 (4,615) (5,850) 8,522 (5,892)  Adjusted  EBITDA  $         (2,375) $          4,071 $         (3,246) $          6,855 $          3,391 SOURCE Emeren Group Ltd WANT YOUR COMPANY'S NEWS FEATURED ON PRNEWSWIRE.COM? 440k+ Newsrooms & Influencers 9k+ Digital Media Outlets 270k+ Journalists Opted In
