Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 4, 2026
- Additionally, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in any future period.
- In addition, we have a team of renewable energy professionals available to assist our U.S. and worldwide clients in site layout, structural design, pile testing and other needs across the solar project development and construction cycle.
- Our products and services provide tracker solutions for large utility-scale solar and distributed generation projects around the world.
- Our level of manufacturing and logistics activity, and thus our revenue, can be significantly impacted by delays or changes in the expected timing of customer project development activity.
- In recent periods our customers have encountered delays in beginning or continuing project development caused by interconnection issues, including permit delays, equipment shortages, obtaining project financing at acceptable levels and addressing uncertainty in changes in government regulations, as described further below.
- Due to our limited number of large customers, such delays in project development activity can have a material impact on our quarterly and annual consolidated financial results.
- As of September 30, 2026, we have qualified suppliers outside of China for certain of our commodities and we continue to work to have second-source capability for all Chinese-manufactured components to help reduce the extent to which our supply chain for U.S.-based projects is subject to existing tariffs and to be able to quickly address potential future regulatory and governmental policy changes.
- Depending on the terms of our existing contracts with customers, we may not in all cases be able to fully recover the increased cost for delivery of tracker systems currently being manufactured for our customers by our international vendors due to higher tariffs currently in place or that may be imposed in the future, which has and may continue to impact our expected profitability under certain contracts.
- The most notable incentive program impacting our U.S. business has historically been the ITC for solar energy projects, which allows taxpayers to offset their U.S. federal income tax liability by a certain percentage of their cost basis in solar energy systems placed in service for commercial use, subject to compliance with applicable prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements.
- The reduction, elimination or expiration of government incentives for, or regulations mandating the use of, as well as corporate commitments to the use of renewable energy and solar energy specifically, could reduce demand for solar energy systems and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- We continue to monitor the logistics markets and will continue to evaluate our use of various modes of transportation when warranted to optimize our transportation costs.
- We also intend to maintain our focus on our design-to-value initiative to continue to improve margins by reducing the manufacturing and material costs of our products.
