Altus Power, Inc. (NYSE: AMPS) (“Altus Power” or the “Company”),
the largest commercial scale provider of clean, electric power,
today announced its financial results for the second quarter of
2024.
“Altus Power has assembled a portfolio of highly attractive
assets that will generate long-term value for our investors. In Q2
2024, we continued to prudently scale our portfolio and capitalize
on long-term growth opportunities,” said Gregg Felton, CEO of Altus
Power. “Over the past five years, our flexible and agile but
disciplined approach has allowed us to increase our revenues and
adjusted EBITDA four-fold, while building the largest nationwide
portfolio in the commercial solar market.”
Second Quarter Financial Results
Operating revenues during the second quarter of 2024 totaled
$52.5 million, compared to $46.5 million during the same period of
2023, an increase of 13%. The increase is primarily due to the
greater number of solar energy facilities placed in service or
onboarded during the past twelve months and resulting increased
sales of energy to customers.
Second quarter 2024 GAAP net income totaled $33.1 million,
compared to $3.4 million for the same period of 2023. The increase
was primarily driven by the non-cash gain from remeasurement of
alignment shares.
Adjusted EBITDA* during the second quarter of 2024 was $31.2
million, compared to $30.6 million for the second quarter of 2023,
a 2% increase. The year over year growth in adjusted EBITDA* was
primarily the result of increased revenue from additional solar
energy facilities, partially offset by an increase in our operating
expenses as well as general and administrative expenses
attributable to increased personnel to support our ongoing growth
initiatives.
2024 Guidance
The company announced plans to revise its previously stated
guidance range of $200-222 million of revenue and $115-135 million
of adjusted EBITDA*, to $196-201 million of revenue and $111-115
million of adjusted EBITDA* for FY2024. At the same time, the
company reaffirmed its previously stated 3-year guidance of 20-30%
CAGR on megawatts and 20-25% CAGR on revenue and adjusted
EBITDA*.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
*Denotes Non-GAAP financial measure. We present our operating
results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the U.S. (“GAAP”). We believe certain financial measures, such
as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide users of our
financial statements with supplemental information that may be
useful in evaluating our business. The presentation of non-GAAP
financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation
or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information
prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
We define adjusted EBITDA as net income plus net interest
expense, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, income
tax expense or benefit, acquisition and entity formation costs,
stock-based compensation expense or benefit, and excluding the
effect of certain non-recurring items we do not consider to be
indicative of our ongoing operating performance such as, but not
limited to, gain or loss on fair value remeasurement of contingent
consideration, gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and
equipment, change in fair value of Alignment Shares liability, loss
on extinguishment of debt, CEO transition costs, and other
miscellaneous items of other income and expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP
financial measures that we use to measure our performance. We
believe that investors and analysts also use adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA margin in evaluating our operating performance.
These measurements are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and
should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of
performance. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted
EBITDA is net income and to adjusted EBITDA margin is net income
over operating revenues. The presentation of adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to suggest that our
future results will be unaffected by non-cash or non-recurring
items. In addition, our calculation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted
EBITDA margin are not necessarily comparable to adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA margin as calculated by other companies and
investors and analysts should read carefully the components of our
calculations of these non-GAAP financial measures.
We believe adjusted EBITDA is useful to management, investors
and analysts in providing a measure of core financial performance
adjusted to allow for comparisons of results of operations across
reporting periods on a consistent basis. Factors in this
determination include the exclusion of (1) variability due to gains
or losses related to fair value remeasurement of contingent
consideration and the change in fair value of Alignment Shares
liability, (2) strategic decisions to acquire businesses, dispose
of property, plant and equipment or extinguish debt, and (3) the
non-recurring nature of stock-based compensation, CEO transition
costs, and other miscellaneous items of income and expense, which
affect results in a given period or periods. In addition, adjusted
EBITDA represents the business performance of the Company before
the application of statutory income tax rates and tax adjustments
corresponding to the various jurisdictions in which the Company
operates, as well as interest expense and depreciation,
amortization and accretion expense, which are not representative of
our ongoing operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is also used by our management for internal
planning purposes, including our consolidated operating budget, and
by our board of directors in setting performance-based compensation
targets. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to
but viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, as we believe it
provides a more complete understanding of ongoing business
performance and trends than GAAP measures alone. Adjusted EBITDA
has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider
it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as
reported under GAAP.
In addition to adjusted EBITDA, we may also refer to annual
recurring revenues, or ARR, which is a non-GAAP measure. ARR is an
estimate that management uses to determine the expected annual
revenue potential of our operating asset base at the end of a
calendar year. ARR assumes customary weather, production, expenses
and other economic and market conditions, as well as seasonality.
It is not derived from a GAAP financial measure so it is difficult
to provide a meaningful reconciliation to GAAP. The elements of our
financial statements that are considered or evaluated in
determining our ARR are the following: the estimated megawatt hours
of generation assuming all new build and operating assets added any
time during the year were in place for the full year and the
estimated power prices for such assets based on historical power
prices. We believe this metric can be helpful to assess our
portfolio asset base in operation at the beginning of an annual
period, e.g., if we were to receive the benefit of assets added for
a full year even if they were added during a partial year. This
figure is only an estimate and is based on a number of assumptions
by Altus Power's management that may or may not be realized.
Altus Power does not provide GAAP financial measures on a
forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with
reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, items such as
acquisition and entity formation costs, gain on fair value
remeasurement of contingent consideration, change in fair value of
Alignment Shares. These items are uncertain, depend on various
factors, and could be material to Altus Power’s results computed in
accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA Definitions
Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net represents
interest on our borrowings under our various debt facilities,
amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs, and
unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swaps.
Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion Expense.
Depreciation expense represents depreciation on solar energy
systems that have been placed in service. Depreciation expense is
computed using the straight-line composite method over the
estimated useful lives of assets. Leasehold improvements are
depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful lives or the
remaining term of the lease. Amortization includes third party
costs necessary to acquire PPA and NMCA customers, value ascribed
to in-place leases, and favorable and unfavorable rate revenues
contracts. Value ascribed to in-place leases is amortized using the
straight-line method ratably over the term of the individual site
leases. Third party costs necessary to acquire PPAs and NMCA
customers are amortized using the straight-line method ratably over
15-25 years based upon the term of the customer contract. Estimated
fair value allocated to the favorable and unfavorable rate PPAs and
REC agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over
the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective agreements.
Accretion expense includes over time increase of asset retirement
obligations associated with solar energy facilities.
Income Tax Expense and Benefit. We account for income
taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes. As such, we determine deferred
tax assets and liabilities based on temporary differences resulting
from the different treatment of items for tax and financial
reporting purposes. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse.
Additionally, we must assess the likelihood that deferred tax
assets will be recovered as deductions from future taxable income.
We have a partial valuation allowance on our deferred state tax
assets because we believe it is more likely than not that a portion
of our deferred state tax assets will not be realized. We evaluate
the recoverability of our deferred tax assets on an annual
basis.
Acquisition and Entity Formation Costs. Acquisition and
entity formation costs represent costs incurred to acquire
businesses and form new legal entities. Such costs primarily
consist of professional fees for banking, legal, accounting and
appraisal services.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense and Benefit. Stock-based
compensation expense is recognized for awards granted under the
Legacy Incentive Plans and Incentive Plan, as defined in Note 14,
"Stock-Based Compensation," to our condensed consolidated financial
statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
six months ended June 30, 2024.
Fair Value Remeasurement of Contingent Consideration. In
connection with various acquisitions, contingent consideration may
be payable upon achieving certain conditions. The Company estimates
the fair value of contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo
simulation model or an expected cash flow approach. Significant
assumptions used in the measurement of fair value of contingent
consideration associated with various acquisitions include market
power rates, estimated volumes of power generation of acquired
solar energy facilities, percentage of completion of in-development
solar energy facilities, and the risk-adjusted discount rate
associated with the business.
Gain or Loss on Disposal of Property, Plant and
Equipment. In connection with the disposal of assets, the
Company recognizes a gain or loss on disposal of property, plant
and equipment, which represents the difference between the
consideration received and the carrying value of the disposed
asset.
Change in Fair Value of Alignment Shares Liability.
Alignment Shares represent Class B common stock of the Company
which were issued in connection with the Merger. Class B common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Alignment Shares") are
accounted for as liability-classified derivatives, which were
remeasured as of June 30, 2024, and the resulting gain was included
in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company
estimates the fair value of outstanding Alignment Shares using a
Monte Carlo simulation valuation model utilizing a distribution of
potential outcomes based on a set of underlying assumptions such as
stock price, volatility, and risk-free interest rates.
Other Income and Expense, Net. Other income and expenses
primarily represent interest income, and other miscellaneous
items.
CEO Transition Costs. CEO transition costs represent
costs recognized in connection with the resignation of Lars Norell
as Co-Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company on April
28, 2024.
