Insights

Nextracker’s Q4 and FY24 financial results showcase a remarkable performance with record revenue of $2.5 billion, up 31% year-over-year (YoY) and a GAAP net income of $496 million. This represents a significant improvement in profitability, with a diluted EPS of $1.51 for Q4 and $3.37 for the full fiscal year. The adjusted EBITDA of $521 million is especially noteworthy, marking a 150% increase YoY, reflecting strong operational efficiencies excluding the IRA 45X tax credit benefits. The record backlog of over $4 billion indicates robust demand, both domestically and internationally. These metrics suggest a solid financial footing and the potential for sustained growth, although the guidance for FY25 shows a slight decrease in expected GAAP net income and diluted EPS compared to FY24 actuals.

For retail investors, the strong cash flow from operations and an adjusted free cash flow of $427 million imply a healthy liquidity position, which is important for future investments and returning value to shareholders. However, the projected decline in GAAP net income and EPS for FY25 might raise some concerns about the company's ability to maintain its profit margins amidst potential operational challenges or market fluctuations.

Nextracker’s launch of three new products—NX Horizon Hail Pro™, NX Horizon XTR-1.5™ and TrueCapture’s Zonal Diffuse™—highlights their commitment to innovation in the solar industry. These products are designed to enhance the efficiency and resilience of solar installations, which could be a significant competitive advantage. For example, the NX Horizon Hail Pro™ is particularly relevant given increasing concerns about extreme weather events impacting solar infrastructure. The rapid pace of product innovation can help Nextracker maintain its leadership in the market, but it also requires continual investment in R&D, which could impact short-term earnings.

From a retail investor's perspective, it's important to note that successful new product launches can drive revenue growth and market share expansion. However, there are always risks associated with the adoption of new technologies and the pace at which the market can absorb these innovations. Keeping an eye on how these products perform in real-world applications and their acceptance in the market will be key to assessing their long-term impact.

The milestone of achieving 100 gigawatts of global shipments is a notable achievement for Nextracker, positioning it as a leader in the solar industry. This milestone serves as a validation of the company's market strategy and execution capabilities. Moreover, the expansion of 20 new or expanded U.S. partner manufacturing facilities since 2021 indicates a strong commitment to scaling production capacity to meet rising demand.

For retail investors, this expansion is significant as it aligns with the growing trend of localizing supply chains, which can mitigate risks associated with global supply chain disruptions. Additionally, the increased capacity indicates that Nextracker is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for solar energy solutions, both in the U.S. and globally. However, capacity expansion also involves substantial capital expenditure, which could affect short-term profitability. Monitoring how effectively the company leverages this expanded capacity to drive revenue and maintain profit margins will be crucial.

Schedule V

Nextracker Inc.

Notes

(1) To supplement Nextracker’s unaudited selected financial data presented consistent with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges and gains, including Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, and adjusted free cash flow. These supplemental measures exclude certain legal and other charges, stock-based compensation expense and intangible amortization, other discrete events as applicable and the related tax effects. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the amounts associated with Nextracker’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Nextracker’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of the Company’s performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to the Company’s ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, for calculating return on investment, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

  • the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results;
  • the ability to better identify trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analysis;
  • a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business; and
  • an easier way to compare the Company’s operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of each of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding each of these individual items in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of unvested restricted share unit and stock option awards granted to employees and assumed in business acquisitions. The Company believes that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of its operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of award types. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on its operating results.

During fiscal year 2023, the Company granted equity compensation awards to employees under the First Amended and Restated 2022 Nextracker LLC Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Nextracker Plan”), Vesting of awards under the Plan was contingent on a Nextracker Initial Public Offering (IPO) which occurred on February 9, 2023. In addition to the 2022 Nextracker Plan, prior to the Flex spin-off, Flex maintained several stock-based incentive plans for the benefit of certain of its officers, directors, and employees, including the employees of Nextracker. Stock-based compensation expense for the period prior to the Flex spin-off also include expense recognized under the Flex plan.

Intangible amortization consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. The Company considers its operating results without these charges when evaluating its ongoing performance and forecasting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that the assessment of its operations excluding these costs is relevant to its assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of its competitors.

The 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit (“45X Credit”) which was established as part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), is a per-unit tax credit earned over time for each clean energy component domestically produced and sold by a manufacturer. The 45X Credit was eligible for domestic parts manufactured after January 1, 2023. The Company has executed agreements with certain suppliers to ramp up its U.S. manufacturing footprint. These suppliers produce 45X Credit eligible parts, including torque tubes, and structural fasteners, that will then be incorporated into a solar tracker. The Company has contractually agreed with these suppliers to share a portion of the credit related to Nextracker’s purchases. The Company accounts for these credits as a reduction of the purchase price of the parts acquired from the vendor and therefore a reduction of inventory until the part is sold, at which point the Company recognizes such credit as a reduction of cost of sales on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company determined the amount of the 45X vendor rebates it expects to receive in accordance with the vendor contracts and recognized a cumulative reduction to cost of sales of $121.4 million related to 45X Credit vendor rebates earned on production of eligible components shipped to projects starting on or after January 1, 2023. The Company believes that the assessment of its operations excluding the benefit from the vendor credits provides a more consistent comparison of its performance given the cumulative nature of the amount recorded in the fiscal fourth quarter.

Legal costs and other consist primarily of costs not directly related to core business results and may include matters relating to commercial disputes, government regulatory and compliance, intellectual property, antitrust, tax, employment or shareholder issues, product liability claims and other issues on a global basis.

Adjustment for taxes relates to the tax effects of the various adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income and certain adjustments related to non-recurring settlements of tax contingencies or other non-recurring tax charges, when applicable.
