Insights

Financial Analyst

Ormat's Q4 and full-year 2024 results demonstrate a company successfully executing its multi-segment growth strategy while navigating operational challenges. The 6.1% revenue growth and 14.3% adjusted EBITDA improvement reflect strong fundamentals across all business lines, with particularly impressive margin expansion in the Product segment (from 13.4% to 18.4%).

The strategic acquisition of Enel assets has already proven accretive, while the Energy Storage segment's 56.7% quarterly revenue surge signals this business is reaching critical mass. The segment's growing contribution to the overall business mix should improve revenue predictability and margin stability over time - a key transformation for Ormat's business model.

What's particularly noteworthy is Ormat's record Product segment backlog of $340 million, including the substantial $210 million EPC contract for New Zealand's Te Mihi Stage 2 project. This backlog provides exceptional revenue visibility through 2025-2026 and demonstrates Ormat's competitive advantage in geothermal technology.

The company's international expansion continues with the 35MW Ijen plant in Indonesia (49% equity stake) and the significant Israeli tender win for 300MW/1200MWh of energy storage capacity (50% equity stake). These strategic moves diversify geographic exposure while leveraging Ormat's core competencies.

Most compelling for long-term investors is the ongoing negotiations with data center operators (hyper-scalers) for approximately 250MW at rates exceeding $100 per MWh - substantially above current wholesale electricity prices. This pricing power demonstrates both the premium value of Ormat's baseload renewable generation and the growing corporate demand for 24/7 clean energy.

The company's prudent move to safe harbor PTC eligibility for geothermal projects through 2028 and ITC benefits for storage projects through 2026 significantly de-risks its development pipeline against potential policy changes. Combined with the consistent $0.12 quarterly dividend, management is clearly signaling confidence in stable cash flows.

The 2025 guidance ($935-975 million revenue, $563-593 million adjusted EBITDA) represents modest growth that appears achievable given the contracted nature of existing assets and development pipeline visibility. With its disciplined capital allocation approach and strategic positioning at the intersection of baseload renewable power and energy storage, Ormat appears well-positioned to capitalize on the accelerating clean energy transition.

Energy Industry Expert

Ormat's 2024 results reveal a company successfully executing a multi-technology renewable energy strategy with particular strength in its core geothermal business. The addition of 253MW across segments represents approximately 10% capacity growth in a single year – an impressive deployment rate for infrastructure assets with multi-decade lifespans.

The Energy Storage segment's transformation is particularly noteworthy, with the 80MW/320MWh Bottleneck facility marking Ormat's entry into utility-scale, long-duration storage. This positions the company to capture premium capacity payments in congested grid areas while diversifying beyond the frequency regulation markets that dominated its earlier storage strategy. The 56.7% quarterly revenue growth in storage demonstrates the segment is reaching commercial scale, though it remains a relatively small contributor at ~6% of total revenue.

The record $340 million Product segment backlog, including the substantial Te Mihi EPC contract, provides exceptional revenue visibility through 2025-2026. More importantly, the segment's margin expansion from 13.4% to 18.4% suggests Ormat is successfully positioning its technology as premium rather than competing purely on price – critical in a market where Chinese equipment manufacturers have driven significant price competition.

What deserves investor attention is Ormat's strategic positioning at the intersection of two critical energy transition trends: data center electrification and baseload renewable generation. The negotiations with hyper-scalers at $100+/MWh rates represent a 30-50% premium to typical wholesale electricity prices, reflecting the scarcity value of 24/7 carbon-free power. If secured, these agreements would significantly enhance Ormat's return profile compared to traditional utility PPAs.

The Israeli tender win for 300MW/1200MWh represents Ormat's largest single storage award and signals the company's ability to secure projects in competitive international markets. Similarly, the 35MW Ijen plant in Indonesia (with 49% equity stake) demonstrates Ormat's ability to navigate complex international development environments where many Western developers struggle.

Ormat's strategic decision to safe harbor PTC eligibility through 2028 represents prudent risk management against potential policy changes while providing tax credit certainty for their development pipeline. With its integrated development-ownership model and multi-technology approach spanning geothermal, storage, and recovered energy, Ormat has positioned itself uniquely in the renewable energy landscape as one of the few pure-play companies capable of delivering firm, dispatchable clean power.

“2024 was another successful year for Ormat and our growth trajectory, highlighted by a top-line improvement of 6.1%, translating into a 3.5% increase in operating income and a 14.3% increase in adjusted EBITDA, with solid growth performance across all three of our business segments,” said Doron Blachar, Chief Executive Officer of Ormat Technologies. “In 2024, we added 253MW of new capacity organically and through strategic, accretive M&A, with 133MW added to our Electricity segment and 120MW to our Energy Storage business.”

“Within our Electricity segment, the Enel assets Ormat acquired at the beginning of the year have been immediately accretive and have played a key role in our year-over-year growth. Our performance was further supported by the Heber complex repowering project, the enhanced output at the Olkaria power plant, and the improved generation performance and pricing at the Puna power plant, helping to more than offset the impact of unplanned maintenance at Dixie Valley and the previously disclosed curtailments in the U.S.”

“We continue to make great progress towards improving the revenue and margin profile of our Energy Storage business, positioning the segment to become a more stable and consistent factor in our consolidated growth. This strategic effort is reflected by the 56.7% and 30.6% increase in revenue on a quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year basis, respectively. We expect this improved performance to carry forward into 2025 as we begin to recognize the benefits of the recent CODs at our 80MW/320MWh Bottleneck and 20MW/20MWh Montague facilities, as well as the other Energy Storage projects in our development pipeline that are expected to come online later this year.”

Blachar continued, “Looking ahead, we expect to benefit from the growing global demand for renewable power needed to support data centers and the transition to a cleaner energy future. We are currently in negotiations for approximately 250MW with hyper-scalers with favorable conditions for both new projects and expiring PPAs at rates exceeding $100 per MWh. To help ensure that we are well-positioned to meet the growing level of demand we have taken strategic actions to safe harbor, for PTC eligibility (pursuant to the current provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act and related guidance), all geothermal projects with expected CODs through 2028, as well as the associated ITC benefits for all energy storage projects through 2026. This has strengthened our confidence in our trajectory, and we believe will help us remain on track to achieve our generating capacity goals of 2.6 to 2.8 GW by the end of 2028.”

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

• Net income attributable to the Company’s stockholders for the fourth quarter and for the full year 2024 was $40.8 million and $123.7 million, respectively, an increase of 14.3% and a decrease of 0.5%, respectively, compared to last year. Diluted EPS for the fourth quarter and for the full year 2024 were $0.67 and $2.04 per share, respectively, an increase of 13.6% and a decrease of 1.9%, respectively, compared to last year.
• Adjusted net income attributable to the Company's stockholders and diluted EPS for the fourth quarter increased 7.7% and 7.5% compared to last year. Adjusted net income attributable to the Company's stockholders and diluted EPS for the full year 2024 increased 9.7% and 7.3% compared to last year.
• Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter and for the year was $145.5 million, and $550.5 million, respectively, an increase of 4.6% and 14.3%, respectively, compared to 2023. The year-over-year increase in Adjusted EBITDA was driven, in the Electricity segment, by the contribution of the acquired assets in the first quarter of 2024, the improved performance of the Olkaria complex in Kenya, higher pricing of our Puna power plant and the sale of tax benefits from newly built plants. In the Product segment, the increase was derived from the improved contracts’ margin and Energy Storage drove improved performance due to the contribution of the new assets as well as a legal settlement with a battery supplier, which we expect to continue to receive over the next 5 quarters, to compensate us for lost revenues as a result of battery non- supply.
• Electricity segment revenues decreased by 2.1% for the fourth quarter and increased by 5.3% in the full year 2024, compared to 2023. The year-over-year decrease in fourth quarter revenue was driven by the partial outage at our Dixie Valley power plant, which returned to full operation in November 2024. Additionally, in the fourth quarter we experienced heavy curtailments mainly to our McGinness complex due to maintenance on the transmission line by the local grid operator. Full-year revenue growth was driven by the contribution of our acquired Enel assets, Heber complex repowering, and higher generation and pricing at Puna.
• Product segment revenues decreased by 21.4% in the fourth quarter and increased by 4.4% in the full year 2024, largely due to the timing of revenue recognition. Gross margin increased from 12.6% in the fourth quarter 2023 to 24.5% in 2024 and from 13.4% in the full year 2023 to 18.4% in 2024.
• Product segment backlog stands at a record of approximately $340.0 million as of February 25, 2025, and includes approximately $210.0 million from the recently signed Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract for the development of the Te Mihi Stage 2 geothermal plant in New Zealand.
• Energy Storage segment revenues increased 56.7% for the fourth quarter and 30.6% for the full year compared to 2023, supported by a total of 120MW/360 MWh of new capacity that started operation since the beginning of 2024 as well as new assets that came online during the second half of 2023.
  

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS:

• Won a tender, in February 2025, issued by the Israeli Electricity Authority and was awarded two separate 15-year tolling agreements for two energy storage facilities. The facilities under the tolling agreements are expected to have a combined capacity of approximately 300MW/1200MWh and we will have 50% equity interest.
• In February 2025, commenced commercial operations of the 35MW Ijen geothermal power plant in Indonesia, in which the Company holds a 49% equity interest.
• Signed a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), in January 2025, with Calpine Energy Solutions for up to 15MW of carbon-free geothermal capacity at favorable terms that will replace the current lower price PPA with Southern California Edison for Mammoth 2 in the first quarter of 2027.
• In December 2024, commenced commercial operations at the Montague energy storage facility to deliver 20MW/20MWh of energy storage capacity to the PJM market.
• In October 2024, commenced commercial operations of the 80MW/320MWh Bottleneck Energy Storage facility in the Central Valley of California. The Bottleneck facility is the Company’s largest energy storage facility in its portfolio.

Reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
For the three and twelve month period ended December 31, 2024 and 2023

We calculate EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion, adjusted for (i) mark-to-market gains or losses from accounting for derivatives not designated as hedging instruments; (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) merger and acquisition transaction costs; (iv) gain or loss from extinguishment of liabilities; (v) costs related to a settlement agreement; (vi) non-cash impairment charges; (vii) write-off of unsuccessful exploration activities; and (viii) other unusual or non-recurring items. We adjust for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and/or are not factors used by management for evaluating operating performance. We believe that presentation of these measures will enhance an investor’s ability to evaluate our financial and operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net earnings as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our Board of Directors and senior management use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our financial performance. However, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do.

The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2024, and 2023:
