Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash investments and accounts receivable.

 

The Company places its cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions located in the United States (“U.S.”) and in foreign countries. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had deposits totaling $127.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, in ten U.S. financial institutions that were federally insured up to $250,000 per account. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s deposits in foreign countries amounted to approximately $102.3 million and $64.3 million, respectively.

 

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accounts receivable related to operations in foreign countries amounted to approximately $106.0 million and $78.9 million, respectively. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accounts receivable from the Company’s primary customers, which each accounted for revenues in excess of 10% of total consolidated revenues for the related period, amounted to approximately 60% and 60% of the Company’s trade receivables, respectively. The aggregate amount of notes receivable exceeding 10% of total receivables as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is $97.3 million and $89.8 million, respectively.

 

The Company's revenues from its primary customers as a percentage of total revenues are as follows:

Kenya Power and Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC")

  14.4   15.5   14.4   14.8 

 

The Company has historically been able to collect on substantially all of its receivable balances. As of June 30, 2023, the amount overdue from KPLC in Kenya was $42.7 million of which $7.8 million was paid in July 2023. The Company believes it will be able to collect all past due amounts in Kenya. This belief is supported by the fact that in addition to KPLC's obligations under its power purchase agreement, the Company holds a support letter from the Government of Kenya that covers certain cases of KPLC non-payment (such as were caused by government actions and/or political events).

 

In Honduras, as of June 30, 2023, the total amount overdue from Empresa Nacional de Energía Eléctrica ("ENEE") was $10.7 million of which $2.3 million was paid in July 2023. In addition, due to the financial situation in Honduras, the Company may experience further delays in collection. The Company believes it will be able to collect all past due amounts in Honduras.

Allowance for credit losses

 

The Company performs an analysis of potential credit losses related to its financial instruments that are within the scope of ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 325, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, primarily cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, investment in marketable securities, receivables (excluding those accounted under lease accounting) and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, based on classes of financing receivables which share the same or similar risk characteristics such as customer type and geographic location, among others. The Company estimates the expected credit losses for each class of financing receivables by applying the related corporate default rate which corresponds to the credit rating of the specific customer or class of financing receivables. For trade receivables, the Company applied this methodology using aging schedules reflecting how long the receivables have been outstanding. The Company has also considered the existence of credit enhancement arrangements that may mitigate the credit risk of its financial receivables in estimating the applicable corporate default rate.

 

The following table describes the changes in the allowance for expected credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (all related to trade receivables):

Contract assets related to our Product segment reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities related to the Company's Product segment reflect payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. The Company receives payments from customers based on the terms established in the contracts. Total contract assets and contract liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

(*) Contract assets and contract liabilities are presented as "Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts" and "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts", respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The contract liabilities balance at the beginning of the year was not yet fully recognized as product revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of performance obligations having not been fully satisfied yet.

 

On June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $119.6 million of remaining performance obligations not yet satisfied or partly satisfied related to our Product segment. The Company expects to recognize approximately 100% of this amount as Product revenues during the next 24 months.

 

Disaggregated revenues from contracts with customers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are disclosed under Note 8 - Business Segments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Marketable securities

 

The Company’s investments in marketable securities consisted of debt securities with maturity of up to one year and a high credit rating. The investments in marketable securities were classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") and thus measured at fair value based on quoted market prices. Unrealized gains and losses from AFS debt securities were excluded from earnings and reported net of the related tax effect in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)". Realized gains and losses from sale of marketable securities, as determined on a specific identification basis, as well as interest income earned, were included in earnings. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including credit market conditions, credit ratings of the security as well as the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost. The Company estimates the lifetime expected credit losses for all AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position under its allowance for credit losses model. The Company assesses the security’s credit indicators, including credit ratings when estimating a security’s probability of default. If the assessment indicates that an expected credit loss exists, the Company determines the portion of the unrealized loss attributable to credit deterioration and records an allowance for the expected credit loss in earnings. Unrealized gains and losses attributable to non-credit factors were recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)", net of tax. Marketable debt securities with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible into a known amount of cash are presented under "Cash and cash equivalents" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Derivative instruments

 

Derivative instruments (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) are measured at their fair value and recorded as either assets or liabilities unless exempted from derivative treatment as a normal purchase and sale. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments are initially recorded in "Other comprehensive income (loss)" and a corresponding amount is reclassified out of "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" to earnings to offset the remeasurement of the underlying hedge transaction which also impacts the same line item in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

 

The Company maintains a risk management strategy that may incorporate the use of swap contracts, put options, forward exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, and cross-currency swaps to minimize significant fluctuation in cash flows and/or earnings that are caused by oil and natural gas prices, exchange rate or interest rate volatility.

 

Transferable production and investment tax credits

 

The Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) was signed into law in August 2022 and introduces a transferability provision for certain tax credits related to the clean production of energy. Under this provision, a reporting entity can monetize such credits through sale to a third party. The option for transferability of credits applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. Several of the Company’s projects that are not currently part of a tax monetization transaction generate eligible tax credits, such as investment tax credits (“ITCs”) and production tax credits (“PTCs”), that are eligible to be transferred to a third-party under the provisions of the IRA. The Company accounts for ITCs under ASC 740 through the “Income tax (provision) benefit” line in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. PTC’s are accounted similarly to refundable or direct-pay credits outside of the tax line with income recognized in the “Income attributable to sale of tax benefits” line in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. Income recognized related to such transferable PTC’s during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.7 million and $4.5 million, net of discount, respectively.

NOTE 2 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

New accounting pronouncements effective in the six months ended June 30, 2023

 

Revenue Contracts Acquired in a Business Combination

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2021-08"). ASU 2021-08 is intended to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing the following topics: (1) recognition of an acquired contract liability and (2) payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in ASU 2021-08 require that an entity that is the acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 at the acquisition date as if it had originated the contracts. The amendments in ASU 2021-08 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company adopted this guidance as prescribed and does not anticipate the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

New accounting pronouncements effective in future periods

 

Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method

 

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02 “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323),” which permits reporting entities to elect to account for tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. The amendments in ASU 2023-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this update should be applied on either a modified retrospective or a retrospective basis. The Company is still evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements, however, it anticipates that the adoption of ASU 2023-02 will not have an impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The fair value measurement guidance clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon selling an asset or paid upon transferring a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the fair value measurement guidance are described below:

 

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

 

The following table sets forth certain fair value information at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy, as well as cost or amortized cost. As required by the fair value measurement guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of inputs that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value of the long-term debt is determined by a valuation model, which is based on a conventional discounted cash flow methodology and utilizes assumptions of current borrowing rates, except for the fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes for which the fair value was estimated based on a quoted bid price of the Notes in an over-the-counter market on the last trading day of the reporting period. A hypothetical change in the quoted bid price will result in a corresponding change in the estimated fair value of the Notes.

 

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, deposits and accounts payable (included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets) approximates their fair value.

NOTE 5 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

In March 2023, the Company granted certain members of its management and employees an aggregate of 174,422 restricted stock units ("RSUs") and 35,081 performance stock units ("PSUs") under the Company’s 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan. The RSUs and PSUs have vesting periods of between 1 to 4 years from the grant date.

 

The fair value of each RSU and PSU on the grant date was $79.9 and $79.6, respectively. The Company calculated the fair value of each RSU and PSU on the grant date using the complex lattice, tree-based option-pricing model based on the following assumptions:

 

Risk-free interest rates

3.86% -4.68%

Expected life (in years)

2 -5.75

Dividend yield

0.59%

Expected volatility (weighted average)

36.0% -42.2%

 

In May 2023, the Company granted its directors and employees an aggregate of 11,852 RSUs under the Company’s 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan. The RSUs have vesting periods 1 year from the grant date.

NOTE 7 EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share attributable to the Company’s stockholders is computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to the Company’s stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company does not have any equity instruments that are dilutive, except for employee stock-based awards and convertible senior notes ("Notes").

 

The table below shows the reconciliation of the number of shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

Weighted average number of shares used in computation of basic earnings per share:

  60,245   56,114   58,494   56,089 

Additional shares from the assumed exercise of employee stock awards

  389   384   407   342 

Weighted average number of shares used in computation of diluted earnings per share

  60,634   56,498   58,901   56,431 

 

The number of stock-based awards that could potentially dilute future earnings per share and that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive was 28.7 thousand and 152.0 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 24.9 thousand and 87.0 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

As per ASU 2020-06, the if-converted method is required for calculating any potential dilutive effect from convertible instruments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the average price of the Company's common stock did not exceed the per share conversion price of the Notes of $90.27, and other requirements for the Notes to be convertible were not met and as such, there was no dilutive effect from the Notes in respect with the aforementioned periods.

NOTE 8 BUSINESS SEGMENTS

 

The Company has three reporting segments: the Electricity segment, the Product segment and the Energy Storage segment. These segments are managed and reported separately as each offers different products and serves different markets.

 

 

Under the Electricity segment, the Company builds, owns and operates geothermal, solar PV and recovered energy-based power plants ("REG") in the United States and geothermal power plants in foreign countries, and sell the electricity generated by those power plants.

 

 

Under the Product segment, the Company designs, manufactures and sells equipment for geothermal and recovered energy-based electricity generation and provide services relating to the engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") of geothermal and recovered energy-based power plants.

 

 

Under the Energy Storage segment, the Company provides energy storage and related services.

 

Transfer prices between the operating segments are determined based on current market values or cost-plus markup of the seller’s business segment.

 

Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following tables, including the Company's disaggregated revenues from contracts with customers:

NOTE 9 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

 

On December 15, 2021, the Center for Biological Diversity and the Fallon Paiute-Shoshone Tribe (the “Plaintiffs”) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the State of Nevada against the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Bureau of Land Management (“the BLM”) and Jake Vialpando, in his official capacity as a field manager of the BLM, alleging that the defendants violated the National Environmental Protection Act and other federal laws by approving the Company’s Dixie Meadows project and the associated environmental assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact (“FONSI”). Plaintiffs additionally alleged that the project threatens the Dixie Valley Toad and infringes on the tribe’s enjoyment of a religious sacred site.  Plaintiffs sought for the court to vacate and set aside the environmental assessment, FONSI and the BLM’s authorizations for the project and to enjoin project construction. The Company intervened in the action on January 4, 2022. On January 14, 2022, the court granted a temporary, 90-day injunction pausing construction of the project while it ruled on the merits of the case.  The Ninth Circuit subsequently set aside the temporary injunction, pending a hearing on June 15, 2022, and construction began in February 2022. On August 1, 2022 the Ninth Circuit issued an order in the Company’s favor, affirming the District Court’s ruling that an injunction after 90-days was not warranted. On April 4, 2022, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services (“FWS”) emergency listed the Dixie Valley Toad under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (the “ESA”).  On July 6, 2022, Plaintiffs amended their complaint to add causes of action related to the ESA listing against the Company. The Company is currently working with the BLM and FWS in the Section 7 Consultation process including discussion and identification of potential additional mitigation measures, and has agreed to temporarily pause construction of the facility. The Company requested that the BLM amend the Decision Record to limit the scope of the project to the first planned phase of development, a single power plant of approximately 12 MW and the BLM granted that request. The Company further requested that the Court stay the litigation until the Section 7 Consultation process was complete, and the Court granted the motion to stay on February 14, 2023. In July 2023, the Company determined that it would conduct a supplemental NEPA review with BLM, which will run simultaneously with Section 7 Consultation, during which time the litigation remains stayed. The Company believes it has strong legal defenses against the present claims, however, there can be no assurances regarding the resolution of these proceedings. Any additional construction delays imposed by the court, any mitigation or other measures arising from the Dixie Valley Toad’s emergency listing or any combination thereof could cause the Company to incur additional project costs, delay or impede the completion of the project and thus the eventual generation of revenues from the project and/or result in the renegotiation of the PPA for the project on less favorable terms. As a result, at this time, the Company cannot reasonably predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation or regulatory process or estimate the possible loss or range of loss it may bear, if any. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregated net book value of the Dixie Meadows project was approximately $84.7 million, which was included under "construction-in-process" in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

In addition, from time to time, the Company is named as a party to various other lawsuits, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of the Company's business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, the Company accrues reserves when a loss is probable, and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. It is the opinion of the Company’s management that the outcome of these proceedings, individually and collectively, will not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a whole.

 

Other matters

 

On March 2, 2021, the Company's board of directors established a special committee of independent directors (the "Special Committee") to investigate, among other things, certain claims made in a report published by a short seller regarding the Company’s compliance with anti-corruption laws. The Special Committee is working with outside legal counsel to investigate the claims made. All members of the Special Committee are “independent” in accordance with the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines, the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules applicable to boards of directors in general. The Company is also providing information as requested by the SEC and Department of Justice ("DOJ") related to the claims.

 

In Kenya, since 2021, various task forces have been appointed by the President and/or the Senate to review and analyze PPAs entered into between KPLC and various independent power producers (including our long-term PPA for the Olkaria complex), with the recommendation that KPLC review its contracts and attempt renegotiation with these independent power producers to reduce PPA tariffs within existing contractual arrangements. The Company has been approached by certain of these task forces and has participated in requested discussions with them, which remain ongoing.

NOTE 10 INCOME TAXES

 

The Company’s effective tax rate provision for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was (21.3)% and 27.1%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate provision for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 8.1% and 29.6%, respectively. The effective rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the jurisdictional mix of earnings at differing tax rates and generation of investment tax credits.

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") was signed into law in the United States. The Company believes that the construction and operations of its geothermal power plants, recovered energy-based power plants, battery energy storage systems and solar PV will benefit in the future from the IRA and enhance the economic feasibility of projects in the United States. PTC’s can be generated from 2.75 cents per kWh, once the Wages & Apprenticeship rules are met, and if bonus credit requirements are met the credit could rise up to 3.30 cents per kWh. ITC’s can be earned on investments from 30.0%, once the Wages & Apprenticeship rules are met, and if bonus credit requirements are met the credit could rise up to 50.0%. Battery Energy Storage Systems are eligible for ITC for projects placed-in-service after December 31, 2022. In addition, the Company can now monetize PTC’s and ITC’s earned by transferring the credits to a third party without having to enter into a tax equity transaction. The Company views the enactment of the IRA as favorable for the overall business climate for its sector.

 

On June 26, 2023, the President of Kenya signed into law the 2023 Finance Bill ("Finance Law"). On June 30, 2023, the Kenyan High Court issued a Temporary Conservatory Order against the Finance Law which bars the implementation of the Finance Law until a decision is made by the High Court. The Finance Law, among several other changes, reduces the statutory corporate income tax rate for Branches from 37.5% to 30%, introduces a Branch Profits tax based on the change in Net Assets and limits interest deductions to 30% of EBITDA. On July 28, 2023, the Kenya appeals court lifted the suspension on the Finance Law which results in the Finance Law to be implemented as signed. There still exists the possibility of further appeals to be filed within 14 days of the lifting of the suspension. Due to the fact that the Finance Law was suspended by the High Court and was not enforceable as of June 30, 2023, the Company has not recorded any effects of this legislation in its condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company continues to monitor this issue and is evaluating the potential impact of the Finance Law on its third quarter condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

 

 

NOTE 11 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Cash Dividend

 

On August 2, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company declared, approved and authorized payment of a quarterly dividend of $7.2 million ($0.12 per share) to all holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock on August 16, 2023, payable on August 30, 2023.

 

ORPD Transaction

 

In July 2023, ORPD LLC ("ORPD"), a subsidiary of the Company in which Northleaf Geothermal Holdings, LLC ("Northleaf") holds a 36.75% equity interest and the Company holds a 63.25% equity interest, sold OREG 1, OREG 2, OREG 3 ("OREGs") and the Don A. Campbell complex to Ormat Nevada Inc. ("ONI"), a fully owned subsidiary of the Company. The proceeds from the sale were partially used by ORPD to make a distribution to its partners in which Northleaf's share was $30.0 million. Following the transaction, the Company fully owns the OREGs and the Don A. Campbell power plant complex and ORPD remains the holder of the Puna geothermal power plant. 

 

Finance Law in Kenya

 

As described under Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, on June 26, 2023, the President of Kenya signed into law the 2023 Finance Law. On June 30, 2023, the Kenyan High Court issued a Temporary Conservatory Order against the Finance Law which bars the implementation of the Finance Law until a decision is made by the High Court. On July 28, 2023, the Kenya appeals court lifted the suspension on the Finance Law which results in the Finance Law to be implemented as signed.

You should read this quarterly report on Form 10-Q completely and with the understanding that actual future results and developments may be materially different from what we expect attributable to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control.

 

These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof, and, except as legally required, we undertake no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

A summary of the risks that may cause actual results to differ from our expectations include, but are not limited to the following:

 

Risks Related to the Companys Business and Operation

 

Our financial performance depends on the successful operation of our geothermal, REG, Solar PV power plants under the Electricity segment as well as, our energy storage facilities, which are subject to various operational risks.

 

Our exploration, development, and operation of geothermal energy resources are subject to geological risks and uncertainties, which may result in decreased performance or increased costs for our power plants.

 

We may decide not to implement, or may not be successful in implementing, one or more elements of our multi-year strategic plan, and the plan may not achieve its goal of enhancing shareholder value.

 

Our investments in battery energy storage system (BESS) technology involves new technologies with relatively limited history with respect to reliability and performance and may not perform as expected. In addition, our investments may be negatively affected by a number of factors, including increases in storage costs, risk of fire and volatility in electricity pricing.

 

Concentration of customers, specific projects and regions may expose us to heightened financial exposure.

 

Our international operations expose us to risks related to the application of foreign laws and regulations.

 

Political, economic and other conditions in the emerging economies where we operate, including Israel, may subject us to greater risk than in the developed U.S. economy.

 

Conditions in and around Israel, where the majority of our senior management and our main production and manufacturing facilities are located, may adversely affect our operations and may limit our ability to produce and sell our products or manage our power plants.

 

Reduction in our Products backlog may affect our ability to fully utilize our main production and manufacturing facilities.

 

Some of our leases will terminate if we do not extract geothermal resources in “commercial quantities” or if we fail to comply with the terms or stipulations of such leases or any of the provisions of the Geothermal Steam Act or if the lessor under any such lease defaults on any debt secured by the relevant property, thus requiring us to enter into new leases or secure rights to alternate geothermal resources, none of which may be available on terms as favorable to us as any such terminated lease, if at all.

 

Reduced levels of recovered energy required for the operation of our REG power plants may result in decreased performance of such power plants.

 

25

 

 

Our business development activities may not be successful and our projects under construction or facilities undergoing enhancement and repowering may encounter delays.

 

Our future growth depends, in part, on the successful enhancement of a number of our existing facilities.

 

We rely on power transmission facilities that we do not own or control.

 

Our use of joint ventures may limit our flexibility with jointly owned investments.

 

Our operations could be adversely impacted by climate change.

 

We could be negatively impacted by regulatory and other responses to climate change.

 

Geothermal projects that we plan to develop in the future may operate as "merchant" facilities without long-term PPAs and therefore such projects will be exposed to market fluctuations.

 

We may not be able to successfully complete acquisitions, and we may not be able to successfully integrate, or realize anticipated synergies from, companies that we have acquired and may acquire in the future.

 

We may not be able to successfully conclude transactions and integrate companies, which we acquired and may acquire in the future.

 

We encounter intense competition from electric utilities, other power producers, power marketers, developers and third-party investors.

 

Changes in costs and technology may significantly impact our business by making our power plants and products less competitive, resulting in our inability to sign new or recontracted PPAs for our Electricity segment and new supply and EPC contracts for our Products segment.

 

Our intellectual property rights may not be adequate to protect our business.

 

We may experience difficulties implementing and maintaining our new enterprise resource planning system.

 

We may experience a cyber-incident, cyber security breach, severe natural event or physical attack on our operational networks and information technology systems.

 

Risks Related to Governmental Regulations, Laws and Taxation

 

Our financial performance could be adversely affected by changes in the legal and regulatory environment affecting our operations.

 

Pursuant to the terms of some of our PPAs with investor-owned electric utilities and publicly-owned electric utilities in states that have renewable portfolio standards, the failure to supply the contracted capacity and energy thereunder may result in the imposition of penalties.

 

If any of our domestic power plants loses its current Qualifying Facility status under PURPA, or if amendments to PURPA are enacted that substantially reduce the benefits currently afforded to Qualifying Facilities, our domestic operations could be adversely affected.

 

We may experience a reduction or elimination of government incentives.

 

We are a holding company and our cash depends substantially on the performance of our subsidiaries and the power plants they operate, most of which are subject to restrictions and taxation on dividends and distributions.

 

The costs of compliance with federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and our ability to obtain and maintain environmental permits and governmental approvals required for development, construction and/or operation may result in liabilities, costs and delays in construction (as well as any fines or penalties that may be imposed upon us in the event of any non-compliance or delays with such laws or regulations).

 

We could be exposed to significant liability for violations of hazardous substances laws because of the use or presence of such substances at our power plants.

 

U.S. federal, state and foreign country income tax reform could adversely affect us.

 

Risks Related to Economic and Financial Conditions

 

We may be unable to obtain the financing we need on favorable terms to pursue our growth strategy and any future financing we receive may be less favorable to us than our current financing arrangements.

 

We have incurred substantial indebtedness that may decrease our business flexibility, access to capital, and/or increase our borrowing costs, and we may still incur substantially more debt, which may adversely affect our operations and financial results.

 

Our debt obligations may adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital and will be a burden on our future cash resources, particularly if we elect to settle these obligations in cash upon conversion or upon maturity or required repurchase.

 

The capped call transactions, into which we entered in connection with the issuance of June 2022 convertible notes, may affect the value of the Notes and our common stock and we are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the capped call transactions.

 

26

 

 

Our foreign power plants and foreign manufacturing operations expose us to risks related to fluctuations in currency rates, which may reduce our profits from such power plants and operations.

 

Our power plants have generally been financed through a combination of our corporate funds and limited or non-recourse project finance debt and lease financing. If our project subsidiaries default on their obligations under such limited or non-recourse debt or lease financing, we may be required to make certain payments to the relevant debt holders, and if the collateral supporting such leveraged financing structures is foreclosed upon, we may lose certain of our power plants.

 

We may experience fluctuations in the cost of construction, raw materials, commodities and drilling.

 

Our commodity derivative activity may limit potential gains, increase potential losses, result in earnings volatility and involve other risks.

 

We are exposed to swap counterparty credit risk.

 

We may not be able to obtain sufficient insurance coverage to cover damages resulting from any damages to our assets and profitability including, but not limited to, natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, lava flows, wind and earthquakes.

 

Risks Related to Force Majeure

 

The global spread of a public health crisis may have an adverse impact on our business.

 

The existence of a prolonged force majeure event or a forced outage affecting a power plant, or the transmission systems could reduce our net income.

 

Threats of terrorism may impact our operations in unpredictable ways and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, future results and cash flow.

 

Risks Related to Our Stock

 

Future equity issuances, including through our current or any future equity compensation plans, could result in dilution, which could cause the price of our shares of common stock to decline.

 

A substantial percentage of our common stock is held by stockholders whose interests may conflict with the interests of our other stockholders.

 

The price of our common stock may fluctuate substantially, and your investment may decline in value.

 

We may issue additional shares of our common stock in connection with conversions of the Notes, and thereby dilute our existing stockholders and potentially adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

The fundamental change provisions of the Notes may delay or prevent an otherwise beneficial takeover attempt of us.

 

Investors are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results or outcomes may vary materially from those described herein. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements even though our situation may change in the future. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report and the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”) and any updates contained herein as well as those set forth in our reports and other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

General

 

Overview

 

We are a leading vertically integrated company that is primarily engaged in the geothermal energy power business. We leverage our core capabilities and global presence to expand our activity in recovered energy generation and into different energy storage services and solar PV (including hybrid geothermal and solar PV as well as Solar plus Energy Storage). Our objective is to become a leading global provider of renewable energy and help to mitigate climate change by providing replacement to carbon-intensive energy sources. We have adopted a strategic plan to focus on several key initiatives to expand our business.

 

We currently conduct our business activities in three business segments:

 

 

Electricity Segment. In the Electricity segment, we develop, build, own and operate geothermal, solar PV and recovered energy-based power plants in the United States and geothermal power plants in other countries around the world and sell the electricity they generate. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, we derived 68.4% of our Electricity segment revenues from our operations in the United States and 31.6% from the rest of the world.

 

 

Product Segment. In the Product segment, we design, manufacture and sell equipment for geothermal and recovered energy-based electricity generation and provide services relating to the engineering, procurement and construction of geothermal and recovered energy-based power plants. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, we derived 6.7% of our Product segment revenues from our operations in the United States and 93.3% from the rest of the world.

 

 

Energy Storage Segment. In the Energy Storage segment, we own and operate grid connected In Front of the Meter Battery Energy Storage Systems ("BESS"), which provide capacity, energy and/or ancillary services directly to the electric grid. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, we derived all of our Energy Storage segment revenues from our operations in the United States.

 

Our current generating portfolio of approximately 1.3 GW includes geothermal power plants in the United States, Kenya, Guatemala, Honduras, Guadeloupe and Indonesia, as well as energy storage facilities, recovered energy generation and Solar PV power plants in the United States.

 

Recent Developments

 

The most significant developments in our Company and business since January 1, 2023 are described below.

 

 

In July 2023, we successfully commenced commercial operations of the Pomona project, a 20MW/40MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) located in California, which provides capacity to Southern California Edison and ancillary services to the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) to support the electric grid in times of scarcity.

 

 

In July 2023, we requested the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to begin a supplemental National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review for the Company’s Dixie Meadows Geothermal Project. The Company has determined that its resources are more efficiently dedicated to Endangered Species Act (ESA) consultation within the context of additional review under NEPA.

 

 

In July 2023, we signed a power purchase agreement with San Diego Community Power (SDCP) for the Arrowleaf Solar and Storage Facility. The Arrowleaf Solar and Storage Facility is located in Imperial County, California, adjacent to Ormat’s operational Brawley geothermal facility and within the Imperial Irrigation District service territory. The project’s storage component will provide 35 MW/140 MWh of capacity and the solar component of the project will contribute 42 MW of clean energy to the grid. Under the terms of the 20-year power purchase agreement, Ormat will provide SDCP with sustainable electricity generated by the Arrowleaf Solar and Storage Facility at predictable rates for customers.

 

28

 

 

In June 2023, we successfully commenced commercial operations for two new battery storage facilities, adding a cumulative capacity of 43MW/43MWh. The projects include the Upton project, a 23MW/23MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) located in Texas, which provides energy and ancillary services to the Electricity Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and support the electric grid in times of scarcity, and the Andover BESS project, a 20MW/20MWh located in New Jersey, which provides ancillary services to PJM.

 

 

In June 2023, we signed agreements with Eastland Generation Limited (EGL) to build a 50MW power plant in New Zealand. EGL is a subsidiary of Eastland Group Limited and a regional infrastructure company. Under the terms of the agreement, Ormat will design, build, commission and own the power plant. EGL will operate and maintain the power plant under a separate services arrangement. As part of the development agreement with EGL, Ormat has granted EGL a contractual option to purchase the power plant at an agreed purchase price, subject to certain conditions.

 

 

In May 2023, we successfully resumed operations at the Heber 1 power plant in California. This achievement comes after the plant temporarily shut down due to a fire incident that occurred in February 2022. The Heber complex, which includes Heber 1 and the repowered Heber 2, is expected to ramp up generation to approximately 87MW by the end of the third quarter 2023.

 

 

In May 2023, we completed a 6MW upgrade to the Dixie Valley power plant in Nevada, which allows the Company to maximize its favorable long-term power purchase agreement. The upgrade involved the replacement of pre-acquisition equipment with Ormat’s state-of-the-art energy converters. In addition, we completed the 6 MW Brady solar facility that supply the auxiliary needs of the Brady geothermal power plant and by that increase the net geothermal power sold to the grid.

 

 

In April and May of 2023, we commenced the commercial operation of two energy storage facilities, Howell and Bowling Green. The Howell BESS project, located in New Jersey, and the Bowling Green BESS project located in Ohio will add 7MW and 12MW of capacity respectively, and will be providing ancillary services to PJM.

 

 

In April 2023, we commenced commercial operation of the North Valley geothermal power plant. The North Valley power plant provides 25 MW of geothermal power to NV Energy under a 25-year agreement to help meet NV Energy’s renewable targets and support increased customer demand for around-the-clock clean energy.

 

 

In March 2023, we announced that we closed a public offering of 3,600,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $82.6 per share. In addition, the underwriters' exercised their option to purchase an additional 540,000 shares of common stock at the same price. We intend to use the $341.7 million net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures, and for potential acquisitions, including complementary businesses, technologies or assets.

 

 

In January 2023, we, together with PT Medco Power Indonesia (“Medco Power”), signed a Financing Agreement with PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur (Persero) (“SMI”) for development of the Ijen Geothermal Power Plant. The Ijen power plant will be developed in stages and the first phase of development is expected to generate 34 MW in 2025. MCG, a jointly owned company between Medco Power (51% equity share) and us (49% equity share), will develop and operate the first geothermal power plant in East Java. We also signed a contract as a key contractor on Ormat Energy Converter (“OEC") supply for this project and secured $32.1 million of our backlog.

 

Trends and Uncertainties

 

Different trends, factors and uncertainties may impact our operations and financial condition, including many that we do not or cannot foresee. However, we believe that our results of operations and financial condition for the foreseeable future will be primarily affected by trends, factors and uncertainties discussed in our 2022 Annual Report under “Part II - Item 7 – Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation”, in addition to the information set forth in this quarterly report. These trends, factors and uncertainties are, from time to time, also subject to market cycles.

 

 

In the Product segment, we see new opportunities for business in New Zealand, the U.S., Asia Pacific and Central and South America. In addition a new tariff structure was recently introduced in Turkey, which we expect should increase demand for new development. The new tariff includes incentives for local manufacturing and we are currently evaluating the tariff and implication on us. We have experienced increased competition from binary power plant equipment suppliers including the major steam turbine manufacturers. While we believe that we have a distinct competitive advantage based on our technology, accumulated experience and current worldwide share of installed binary generation capacity, an increase in competition may impact our ability to secure new purchase orders from potential customers. The increased competition may also lead to further reductions in the prices that we are able to charge for our binary equipment.

 

29

 

Revenues

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, 94.6% of our Electricity segment revenues were from PPAs with fixed energy rates, which are not affected by fluctuations in energy commodity prices. We have variable price PPA in Hawaii, which provide for payments based on the local utilities’ avoided cost, which is the incremental cost that the power purchaser avoids by not having to generate such electrical energy itself or purchase it from others. In Hawaii, the prices paid for electricity pursuant to the 25 MW PPA for the Puna Complex in Hawaii change primarily as a result of variations in the price of oil as well as other commodities. In 2019, we signed a new PPA related to Puna with fixed prices, increased capacity and extended the term until 2052. We are currently negotiating economic amendments including minimum capacity for commercial operation to the PPA, which are subject to PUC approval.

 

To comply with obligations under their respective PPAs, certain of our project subsidiaries are structured as special purpose, bankruptcy remote entities and their assets and liabilities are ring-fenced. Such assets are not generally available to pay our debt, other than debt at the respective project subsidiary level. However, these project subsidiaries are allowed to pay dividends and make distributions of cash flows generated by their assets to us, subject in some cases to restrictions in debt instruments, as described below.

 

Electricity segment revenues are also subject to seasonal variations and are affected by higher-than-average ambient temperatures, as described below under “Seasonality”.

 

Revenues attributable to our Product segment are based on the sale of equipment, engineering, procurement and construction contracts and the provision of various services to our customers. Product segment revenues vary from period to period because of the timing of our receipt of purchase orders and the progress of our equipment manufacturing and execution of the relevant project.

 

Revenues attributable to our Energy Storage segment are generated by several grid-connected BESS facilities that we own and operate that sell energy, capacity and/or ancillary services in merchant markets like PJM Interconnect, ISO New England, ERCOT and CAISO. The revenues fluctuate over time since a large portion of such revenues are generated in the merchant markets, where price volatility is inherent.

In the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 36% and 33% of our total revenues, respectively, were derived from foreign locations. Our foreign operations had higher Electricity gross margins than our U.S. operations in each of those periods. A substantial portion of Electricity international revenues came from Kenya and to a lesser extent, from Honduras, Guadeloupe and Guatemala. Our operations in Kenya contributed disproportionately to gross profit and net income. The contribution to combined pre-tax income of our domestic and foreign operations within our Electricity segment and Product segment differ in a number of ways.

 

Electricity Segment. Our Electricity segment domestic revenues were approximately 70% and 71% of our total Electricity segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. However, domestic operations have higher costs of revenues and expenses than our foreign operations. Our foreign power plants are located in lower-cost regions, like Kenya, Guatemala, Honduras and Guadeloupe, which favorably impact payroll, and maintenance expenses among other items. Our power plants in foreign locations are also newer than most of our domestic power plants and therefore tend to have lower maintenance costs and higher availability factors than our domestic power plants. Consequently, in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the international operations of the segment accounted for 48% and 45% of our total gross profits, 73% and 74% of our net income (assuming the majority of corporate operating expenses and financing are recorded under our domestic jurisdiction) and 39% and 39% of our EBITDA, respectively.

 

31

 

Product Segment. Our Product segment foreign revenues were approximately 92% and 93% of our total Product segment revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Energy Storage Segment. Our Energy Storage segment domestic revenues were 100% of our total Energy storage segment revenues for each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

Seasonality

 

Electricity generation from some of our geothermal power plants is subject to seasonal variations. In the winter, our power plants produce more energy primarily attributable to the lower ambient temperature, which has a favorable impact on the energy component of our Electricity segment revenues and the prices under many of our contracts are fixed throughout the year with no time-of-use impact. The prices paid for electricity under the PPAs for the Mammoth Complex and the North Brawley power plant in California, the Raft River power plant in Idaho, the Neal Hot Springs power plant in Oregon and Dixie Valley power plant in Nevada are higher in the months of June through September. The higher payments payable under these PPAs in the summer months partially offset the negative impact on our revenues from lower generation in the summer attributable to a higher ambient temperature. As a result, we expect the revenues and gross profit in the winter months to be higher than the revenues and gross profit in the summer months and in general we expect the first and fourth quarters to generate higher revenues than the second and third quarters.

Electricity Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Electricity segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $155.3 million, compared to $151.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was mainly due to: (i) $3.4 million related to the CD4 power plant which started commercial operation in July 2022; (ii) $2.4 million related to the North Valley power plant which started commercial operations in April 2023; and (iii) $2.6 million related to the Dixie Valley upgrade which was completed in May 2023, partially offset by $5.4 million of lower revenues at the Puna power plant due to lower electricity prices and slightly lower generation.

 

Power generation in our power plants increased by 13.0% from 1,500,827 MWh in the three months ended June 30, 2022 to 1,695,396 MWh in the three months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Product Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Product segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $33.5 million, compared to $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, which represented a 222.0% increase. The increase in our Product segment revenues is primarily related to the progress in our projects and timing of when revenues are recognized during the period. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Product revenues included projects in New Zealand, Indonesia and the Philippines, compared to other projects in Nicaragua and Indonesia for which revenues were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Energy Storage Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Energy Storage segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $6.0 million compared to $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease is mainly due to lower energy rates at PJM Interconnection, LLC (“PJM”) and California Independent System Operator “(CAISO”) facilities in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the previous year.

Electricity Segment

 

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $109.4 million, compared to $95.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to: (i) the CD4 power plant which started commercial operation in July 2022; (ii) the North Valley power plant which started commercial operations in April 2023; (iii) the Dixie Valley upgrade which was completed in May 2023; and (iv) $3.4 million income from business interruption insurance proceeds related to the fire at the Heber 1 power plant in February 2022.

 

Our total Electricity segment cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 70.4% of Electricity revenues, compared to 63.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, including the impact from business interruption insurance proceeds as described above. The cost of revenues attributable to our international power plants for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 17.8% of our total Electricity segment cost of revenues for this period compared to 19.0% for the same period in the prior year.

 

Product Segment

 

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Product segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $30.0 million, compared to $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, which represented a 189.2% increase. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in Product segment revenues, as discussed above. As a percentage of total Product segment revenues, our total cost of revenues attributable to our Product segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, was 89.6% and 99.8%, respectively, which results from different profitability of the different projects.

 

Energy Storage Segment

 

Cost of revenues attributable to our Energy Storage segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $5.9 million compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Research and Development Expenses, Net

 

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $2.1 million, compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in research and development expenses, net is primarily related to the timing of inputs invested in such related projects.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses

 

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $5.4 million compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 constituted 2.8% and 2.3% of total revenues, respectively.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $17.8 million compared to $13.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 constituted 9.1% and 8.0% of total revenues, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to services related to the implementation of our new enterprise resource planning system and timing of incurring legal services in connection with the ongoing legal proceeding as described under Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Write-off of Energy Storage projects and assets for the three months ended June 30, 2022 is related to accumulated costs of energy storage projects that the Company was no longer pursuing as well as specific certain customer related assets. There were no write-offs of Energy Storage projects and assets for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest Income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $4.9 million, compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily related to higher outstanding balance of cash and cash equivalents as well as higher interest rates applicable to those balances, period over period.

 

Interest Expense, Net

 

Interest expense, net for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $24.4 million, compared to $20.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase of $4.0 million was primarily attributable to: (i) $1.6 million related to the BHI Loan entered into in February 2023; (ii) $2.7 million related to the convertible senior note issued in June 2022; and (iii) $1.2 million related to higher interest expenses that were capitalized to projects under construction in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter in 2023. This increase was partially offset by lower interest expenses on other long-term loans as a result of regular principal payments.

 

Derivatives and Foreign Currency Transaction Gains (Losses)

 

Derivatives and foreign currency transaction gains and losses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was a loss of $1.3 million, compared to a loss of $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Derivatives and foreign currency transaction gains (losses) primarily includes losses from foreign currency forward contracts which were not accounted for as hedge transactions.

 

Income Attributable to Sale of Tax Benefits

 

Income attributable to the sale of tax benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $15.0 million, compared to $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This income primarily represents the value of production tax credits (“PTCs”) and taxable income or loss generated by certain of our power plants allocated to investors under tax equity transactions. This increase of $5.5 million is primarily related to the CD 4 tax equity transaction entered into in December 2022 and income related to the expected sale of transferable production tax credits of $2.7 million, which was recorded in the second quarter of 2023 under the new IRA regulations.

 

Other Non-Operating Income (Expense), Net

 

Other non-operating income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was an expense of $0.1 million, compared to an income of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Other non-operating income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily includes cost related to the make-whole premium of $1.1 million from the prepayment of Series 3 Bonds during the second quarter of 2022.

 

37

 

Income Taxes

 

Income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $4.0 million compared to income tax provision of $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, was (21.3)% and 27.1%, respectively. The effective rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the jurisdictional mix of earnings at differing tax rates and generation of investment tax credits of $9.0 million.

 

Equity in Earnings (losses) of Investees, Net

 

Equity in earnings of investees, net for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was earnings of $2.0 million, compared to losses of $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Equity in earnings (losses) of investees, net is derived from our 12.75% share in the earnings or losses in the Sarulla Consortium ("Sarulla") and our 49% share in the earnings or losses in the Ijen geothermal project. The increase in equity in earnings of investees is primarily related to increase in net income generated by the Ijen project starting in 2023. In the second quarter of 2022, Sarulla agreed with its banks on a framework that will enable it to perform remediation works that are aimed to restore the power  plants' performance. The recovery plan is underway, however, uncertainty remains regarding Sarulla’s ability to fully meet the plan's goals and we are monitoring the progress of the plan execution while evaluating the impact of the plan on future performance. As we determined that the current situation and circumstances related to our equity method investment in Sarulla are temporary, no impairment testing was required for the period.

 

Net Income Attributable to the Companys Stockholders

 

Net income attributable to the Company’s stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $24.2 million, compared to net income attributable to the Company’s stockholders of $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, which represents an increase of $12.9 million. This increase was attributable to an increase of $9.6 million in net income which was affected by the explanations described above, and an decrease of $3.4 million in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily as a result of lower performance by our Puna power plant, period over period.

Product revenues are primarily related to the progress in our projects which results in the timing of when revenues are recognized. The increase in our Product segment revenues was primarily due to certain new projects in New Zealand and Indonesia for which we recorded revenues in the first six months of 2023, and which were higher than revenues from different projects, primarily in Nicaragua and Indonesia, for which we recorded revenues in the first half of 2022.

 

Energy Storage Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Energy Storage segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $10.9 million compared to $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease is mainly due to lower revenues at PJM and CAISO facilities due to lower energy rates in 2023.

This income primarily represents the value of PTCs and taxable income or loss generated by certain of our power plants allocated to investors under tax equity transactions. This increase of $10.3 million is attributable to the CD 4 tax equity transaction entered into in December 2022 and income related to the expected sale of transferable production tax credits of $4.5 million, which was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023 under the new IRA regulations.

 

Other Non-Operating Income (Expense), Net

The increase in equity in earnings of investees is primarily related to increase in net income generated by the Ijen project starting in 2023. In the second quarter of 2022, Sarulla agreed with its banks on a framework that will enable it to perform remediation works that are aimed to restore the power  plants' performance. The recovery plan is underway, however, uncertainty remains regarding Sarulla’s ability to fully meet the plan's goals and we are monitoring the progress of the plan execution while evaluating the impact of the plan on future performance. As we determined that the current situation and circumstances related to our equity method investment in Sarulla are temporary, no impairment testing was required for the period.

 

 

Net Income Attributable to the Companys Stockholders

 

Net income attributable to the Company’s stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $53.2 million, compared to $29.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, which represents an increase of $23.5 million. This increase was attributable to the increase of $20.2 million in net income which was affected by the explanations described above, as well as a decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest primarily due to the lower performance by our Puna power plant, period over period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our principal sources of liquidity have been derived from cash flows from operations, proceeds from third party debt such as borrowings under our credit facilities, private or public offerings and issuances of debt or equity securities, project financing and tax monetization transactions, short term borrowing under our lines of credit, and proceeds from the sale of equity interests in one or more of our projects. We have utilized this cash to develop and construct power plants, fund our acquisitions, pay down existing outstanding indebtedness, and meet our other cash and liquidity needs.

 

As of June 30, 2023, we had access to (i) $275.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, of which $72.8 million is held by our foreign subsidiaries;  and (ii) $390.8 million of unused corporate borrowing capacity under existing committed lines for credit and letters of credit with different commercial banks.

 

41

 

Our estimated capital needs for the remainder of  2023 include  $328.0  million for capital expenditures on new projects under development or construction including energy storage projects, exploration activity and maintenance capital expenditures for our existing projects. In addition, $80.2 million will be needed for long-term debt repayment.

 

We expect to finance these requirements with: (i) the sources of liquidity described above; (ii) positive cash flows from our operations; and (iii) future project financings and re-financings (including construction loans and tax equity). Management believes that, based on the current stage of implementation of our strategic plan, the sources of liquidity and capital resources described above will address our anticipated liquidity, capital expenditures, and other investment requirements.

 

As of June 30, 2023, we continue to maintain our assertion to no longer indefinitely reinvest foreign funds held by our foreign subsidiaries, and have accrued the incremental foreign withholding taxes. Accordingly, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we included a foreign income tax expense of $1.0 million related to foreign withholding taxes on accumulated earnings of all of our foreign subsidiaries.

 

As described under Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, on February 27, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive loan agreement with Hapoalim Bank under which it provided for a loan in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million.

 

Letters of Credits Under Credit Agreements

 

Some of our customers require our project subsidiaries to post letters of credit in order to guarantee their respective performance under relevant contracts. We are also required to post letters of credit to secure our obligations under various leases and licenses and may, from time to time, decide to post letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits in reserve accounts under certain financing arrangements. In addition, our subsidiary, Ormat Systems, is required from time to time to post performance letters of credit in favor of our customers with respect to orders of products.

Restrictive Covenants

 

Our obligations under the credit agreements, the loan agreements, and the trust instrument governing the bonds described above, are unsecured, but we are subject to a negative pledge in favor of the banks and the other lenders and certain other restrictive covenants. These include, among other things, restraints on: (i) creating any floating charge or any permanent pledge, charge or lien over our assets without obtaining the prior written approval of the lender; (ii) guaranteeing the liabilities of any third party without obtaining the prior written approval of the lender; and (iii) selling, assigning, transferring, conveying or disposing of all or substantially all of our assets, or a change of control in our ownership structure. Some of the credit agreements, the term loan agreements, and the trust instrument contain cross-default provisions with respect to other material indebtedness owed by us to any third party. In some cases, we have agreed to maintain certain financial ratios, which are measured quarterly, such as: (i) equity of at least $750 million and in no event less than 25% of total assets; and (ii) 12-month debt, net of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term bank deposits to Adjusted EBITDA ratio not to exceed 6.0. As of June 30, 2023: (i) total equity was $2,407.0 million and the actual equity to total assets ratio was 48.0% and (ii) the 12-month debt, net of cash, cash equivalents, to Adjusted EBITDA ratio was 3.56. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we distributed interim dividends in an aggregate amount of $14.0 million. The failure to perform or observe any of the covenants set forth in such agreements, subject to various cure periods, would result in the occurrence of an event of default and would enable the lenders to accelerate all amounts due under each such agreement.

 

42

 

As described above, we are currently in compliance with our covenants with respect to the credit agreements, the loan agreements and the trust instrument (except as described below), and believe that the restrictive covenants, financial ratios and other terms of any of our full-recourse bank credit agreements will not materially impact our business plan or operations.

 

As of June 30, 2023, we did not meet the dividend distribution criteria related to the DAC 1 Senior Secured Notes, which resulted in certain equity distribution restrictions from this related subsidiary.

 

Future minimum payments

 

Future minimum cash payments under long-term obligations (including long-term debt, lease obligations and financing liability), as of June 30, 2023, are as follows:

Liquidity Impact of Uncertain Tax Positions

 

The Company has a liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties in the amount of approximately $6.7 million as of June 30, 2023. This liability is included in long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet because we generally do not anticipate that settlement of the liability will require payment of cash within the next twelve months. We are not able to reasonably estimate when we will make any cash payments required to settle this liability.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

 

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $130.5 million, compared to $115.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The net increase of  $15.2 million was primarily attributable to higher net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items, and: (i) a net increase of $5.2 million in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, period over period, as a result of timing of billing to our customers; (ii) an  increase in the change in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $40.1 million, mainly due to timing of payments to our supplier and construction of power plants, and; (iii) an increase in other long-term liabilities of $13.1 million primarily related to a prepayment made by one of our customers. This was offset by: (i) a net increase in change in inventories of $11.3 million related to timing of allocating costs to projects under construction; (ii) a decrease in prepaid expenses and other of $2.2 million primarily related to prepayments made to suppliers; and (iii) a net increase in the change in receivables of $29.0 million, as a result of the timing of collection from our customers.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $274.9 million, compared to $225.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The principal factors that affected our net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were: capital expenditures of $266.7 million, and $263.4 million, respectively, primarily for our facilities under construction that support our growth plan.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $313.1 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $123.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The principal factors that affected the net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 were: (i) net proceeds of $341.7 million and $99.9 million from issuance of common stock and the Hapoalim Loan 2023, respectively; and (ii) cash received from noncontrolling interest in the amount of $7.3 million. These cash inflows were primarily offset by: (i) repayment of long-term debt in the amount of $115.2 million, including the prepayment of the Plumstriker loan in the amount of $11.1 million; (ii) cash dividend payment of $14.0 million, and (iii) $3.6 million cash paid to noncontrolling interest. The principal factors that affected our net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 were: (i) net proceeds of $420.4 million and $75.0 million from issuance of convertible notes and the Mizrahi Loan, respectively, primarily offset by: (i) prepayment of the Series 3 Bonds in the amount of $219.1 million; (ii) repayments of long-term debt in the amount of $96.9 million; (iii) cash paid to noncontrolling interest of $3.9 million; (iv) cash dividend payment of $13.5 million; (v) purchase of capped call instruments in the amount of $24.5 million, and (vi) purchase of treasury stock in the amount of $18.0 million .

 

Non-GAAP Measures: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

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, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) merger and acquisition transaction costs, (iv) gain or loss from extinguishment of liabilities, (v) cost 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.

 

Starting in the fourth quarter of 2022, we include accretion expenses related to asset retirement obligation in the adjustments to net income when calculating EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA includes accretion expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, however, the prior year has not been recast to include accretion expenses as the amounts were immaterial.

 

Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $24.5 million and $58.0 million, respectively, compared to $14.9 million and $37.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $100.9 million and $224.4 million, respectively, compared to $100.7 million and $208.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

In May 2014, the Sarulla consortium ("SOL") closed $1,170 million in financing through SOL. As of June 30, 2023, the SOL credit facility had an outstanding balance of $836.6 million. Our proportionate share in the SOL credit facility is $106.7 million. In the second quarter of 2022, Sarulla agreed with its banks on a framework that will enable it to perform remediation works that are aimed to restore the power  plants' performance. The recovery plan is underway, however, uncertainty remains regarding Sarulla’s ability to fully meet the plan's goals and we are monitoring the progress of the plan execution while evaluating the impact of the plan on future performance. As we determined that the current situation and circumstances related to our equity method investment in Sarulla are temporary, no impairment testing was required for the period.  

 

Capital Expenditures 

 

Our capital expenditures primarily relate to: (i) the development and construction of new power plants, (ii) the enhancement of our existing power plants; and (iii) investment in activities under our strategic plan.

 

The following is an overview of projects that are fully released for construction.

 

Heber Complex (California). We are currently in the process of completing the repowering work at our Heber complex. We completed the replacement of the steam turbine and the old OEC units with new advanced technology and expect the capacity of the complex to reach 87 MW in the third quarter of 2023.

 

Steamboat Solar (Nevada). We are currently developing a Solar PV power plant adjacent to our Steamboat 2/3 geothermal power plant at the  Steamboat complex in Nevada. The project is expected to generate approximately 7  MW that will be used for the ancillary needs of the geothermal power plant and will free a similar amount of MW to be sold from the geothermal resource to SCPPA under the SCPPA portfolio PPA. Construction of the Steamboat 2/3 Solar PV is progressing and commercial operation is expected in the second half of 2023.

 

Zunil Upgrade (Guatemala). We are expanding the Zunil geothermal power plant in Guatemala to add 5 MW of additional capacity. We are planning to sell the electricity generated under the existing PPA with the local utility, Instituto Nacional de Electrification or “INDE”. Construction has been completed and drilling is still ongoing. Commercial operation is expected in the first half of 2023.

 

47

 

North Valley Solar (Nevada). We are currently developing a Solar PV power plant adjacent to our North Valley geothermal power plant in Nevada. The project is expected to generate approximately 6 MW that will be used for the ancillary needs of the geothermal power plant and will free a similar amount to be sold from the geothermal resource to SCPPA under the SCPPA portfolio PPA. Permitting is ongoing. Commercial operation is expected in the second half of 2023.

 

Beowawe Upgrade (Nevada). We are currently in the process of upgrading the Beowawe project that we recently acquired. We are planning to replace the old equipment with new advanced technology equipment that will add a net capacity of 9 MW. Construction commenced, equipment deliveries are ongoing and we expect commercial operation in the first half of 2024.

 

Steamboat Hills Solar (Nevada). We are currently developing a Solar PV power plant adjacent to our geothermal Steamboat complex in Nevada. The project is expected to generate approximately 3.5 MW that will be used for the ancillary needs of the geothermal power plant and will free a similar amount of MW to be sold from the geothermal resource to SCPPA under the SCPPA portfolio PPA. Equipment arrived on site and awaiting permits to start construction. We expect commercial operation in the second half of 2023.

 

Beowawe Solar (Nevada). We are currently developing a Solar PV power plant adjacent to our geothermal Beowawe power plant in Nevada. The project is expected to generate approximately 6 MW that will be used for the ancillary needs of the geothermal power plant and will free a similar amount of MW to be sold from the geothermal resource under its PPA. Construction commenced and we expect commercial operation in the first half of 2024.

 

Bouillante repowering (Guadeloupe). We are currently in the process of upgrading the Bouillante project and planning to install a new Ormat energy converter that will add net capacity of 10 MW. We expect commercial operation in the first half of 2025.

 

Topp 2 (New Zealand). We are developing the 50 MW Topp 2 geothermal power plant in New Zealand which was recently released for construction. We signed an agreement with Eastland Generation Limited (EGL), under which the Company will design, build, commission and own the power plant. EGL will operate and maintain the power plant under a separate services arrangement. As part of the development agreement with EGL, the Company has granted EGL a contractual option to purchase the power plant at an agreed purchase price, subject to certain conditions. We expect commercial operation in 2025.

 

In addition, we are in the process of repowering the Ormesa, Neal Hot Springs, Puna and Desert Peak power plants. In the Energy Storage segment, we commenced operation of five assets since the beginning of the year and we are in the process of constructing several facilities as detailed below, two of them were released recently:

The following is an overview of projects that are in initial stages of construction:

 

Carson Lake Project. We plan to develop between 10 MW to 15 MW at the Carson Lake project on BLM leases located in Churchill County, Nevada. We signed a Small Generator Interconnection Agreement with NV Energy in December 2017. As of June 30, 2023, we are planning to begin the drilling activity next year.

 

48

 

We have budgeted approximately $715.0 million in capital expenditures for construction of new projects and enhancements to our existing power plants, of which we had invested $415.0 million as of June 30, 2023. We expect to invest approximately $140.0 million in the rest of 2023 and the remaining approximately $160.0 million thereafter.

 

In addition, we estimate approximately $188.0 million in additional capital expenditures in 2023 to be allocated as follows: (i) approximately $60.0 million for the exploration, drilling and development of new projects and enhancements of existing power plants that are not yet released for full construction; (ii) approximately $23.0 million for maintenance capital expenditures for our operating power plants; (iii) approximately $95.0 million for the construction and development of energy storage projects; and (iv) approximately $10.0 million for enhancements to our production facilities.

 

In the aggregate, we estimate our total capital expenditures for the last  three quarters of 2023 to be approximately $328.0 million.

 

Exposure to Market Risks

 

Based on current conditions, we believe that we have sufficient financial resources to fund our activities and execute our business plans. However, the cost of obtaining financing for our project needs may increase significantly or such financing may be difficult to obtain.

 

We, like other power plant operators, are exposed to electricity price volatility risk. Our exposure to such market risk is currently limited because the majority of our long-term PPAs have fixed or escalating rate provisions that limit our exposure to changes in electricity prices. Our energy storage projects sell primarily on a "merchant" basis and are exposed to changes in the electricity market prices.

 

The energy payments under the PPAs of the Heber 2 power plant in the Heber Complex were determined by reference to the relevant power purchaser’s short run avoided cost until the end of 2022. A decline in the price of natural gas would have resulted in a decrease in the incremental cost that the power purchaser avoided by not generating its electrical energy needs from natural gas, or by reducing the price of purchasing its electrical energy needs from a natural gas power plant, which in turn, would reduced the energy payments that we may have charged under the relevant PPA for this power plant. The Puna Complex is currently benefiting from energy prices which are higher than the floor under the 25 MW PPA for the Puna Complex. For  Heber 2 power plant, we signed a new PPA and for Puna, we are currently negotiating a new PPA with a fixed energy rate, as discussed above.

 

As of June 30, 2023, 99.3% of our consolidated long-term debt was fixed rate debt and therefore was not subject to interest rate volatility risk and 0.7% of our long-term debt was floating rate debt, exposing us to interest rate risk in connection therewith. As of June 30, 2023, $14.0 million of our long-term debt remained subject to interest rate risk.

 

Our cash equivalents are subject to interest rate risk. We currently maintain our surplus cash in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits, money market funds, corporate bonds and debt securities available for sale (with a minimum investment grade rating of A+ by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services).

 

We are also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk, in particular the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus the New Israeli Shekels ("NIS") in Israel and the Euro. Risks attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates can arise when we or any of our foreign subsidiaries borrow funds or incur operating or other expenses in one type of currency but receive revenues in another. In such cases, an adverse change in exchange rates can reduce such subsidiary’s ability to meet its debt service obligations, reduce the amount of cash and income we receive from such foreign subsidiary, or increase such subsidiary’s overall expenses. In Kenya, the tax asset is recorded in Kenyan Shillings ("KES") similar to the tax liability, however any change in the exchange rate in the KES versus the U.S. dollar has an impact on our financial results. Risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can also arise when the currency denomination of a particular contract is not the U.S. dollar. Substantially all of our PPAs in the international markets are either U.S. dollar-denominated or linked to the U.S. dollar except for our operations on Guadeloupe, where we own and operate the Boulliante power plant which sells its power under a Euro-denominated PPA with Électricité de France S.A. Our construction contracts from time to time contemplate costs which are incurred in local currencies. The way we often mitigate such risk is to receive part of the proceeds from the contract in the currency in which the expenses are incurred. Currently, we have forward and cross-currency swap contracts in place to reduce our NIS/U.S. dollar currency exposure and expect to continue to use currency exchange and other derivative instruments to the extent we deem such instruments to be the appropriate tool for managing such exposure.

On July 1, 2020, we concluded an auction tender and accepted subscriptions for senior unsecured bonds comprised of NIS 1.0 billion aggregate principal amount (the “Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4”). The Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4 were issued in New Israeli Shekels and converted to approximately $290 million using a cross-currency swap transaction shortly after the completion of such issuance.

 

In June 2022, we issued $431.3 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.5% convertible senior notes due in 2027. The Notes bear annual interest of 2.5%, payable semiannually in arrears, and mature on July 15, 2027, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.

 

We performed a sensitivity analysis on the fair values of our long-term debt obligations, and foreign currency exchange forward contracts. The foreign currency exchange forward contracts listed below principally relate to trading activities. The sensitivity analysis involved increasing and decreasing forward rates at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 by a hypothetical 10% and calculating the resulting change in the fair values.

 

At this time, the development of our strategic plan has not exposed us to any additional market risk. However, as the implementation of the plan progresses, we may be exposed to additional or different market risks.

 

The results of the sensitivity analysis calculations as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are presented below:

In July 2019, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), announced that it intends to phase out LIBOR. LIBOR is still in use and being published until its phaseout in June 2023 in order to allow a transition period mainly for contracts that already exist using LIBOR. We have evaluated the impact of the transition from LIBOR, and currently believe that the transition will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Effect of Inflation

 

We have experienced an increase in overall operating and other costs since early 2022 as the result of higher inflation rates, in particular in the United States. In addition, we are experiencing increases in raw material cost and supply chain delays, which may put pressure on our operating margins in the Product segment and increase our cost to build our own power plants and energy storage assets. To address the possibility of rising inflation, some of our contracts include certain provisions that mitigate inflation risk.

 

In connection with the Electricity segment, none of our U.S. PPAs, including the SCPPA Portfolio PPA, are directly linked to the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). Inflation may directly impact an expense we incur for the operation of our projects, thereby increasing our overall operating costs and reducing our profit and gross margin. The negative impact of inflation would be partially offset by price adjustments built into some of our PPAs that could be triggered upon such occurrences. In addition to part of the Puna rates that are impacted by higher commodity prices, the energy payments pursuant to our PPAs for some of our power plants such as the Brady power plant, the Steamboat 2 and 3 power plants and the McGinness Complex increase every year through the end of the relevant terms of such agreements, although such increases are not directly linked to the CPI or any other inflationary index. Lease payments are generally fixed, while royalty payments are generally calculated as a percentage of revenues and therefore are not significantly impacted by inflation. In our Product segment, inflation may directly impact fixed and variable costs incurred in the construction of third party power plants, thereby lowering our profit margins at the Product segment. We are more likely to be able to offset long term, all or part of this inflationary impact through our project pricing. With respect to power plants that we build for our own electricity production, inflationary pricing may impact our operating costs which may be partially offset in the pricing of the new long-term PPAs that we negotiate.

 

Interest rate increases for both short-term and long-term debt have increased sharply. Although our outstanding debt mostly bears fixed interest rates, as we refinance it, or borrow additional amounts, we may incur additional interest expense versus expiring loans.

 

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

 

We have various contractual obligations, which are recorded as liabilities in our consolidated condensed financial statements. Other items are not recognized as liabilities in our consolidated condensed financial statements but are required to be disclosed. There have been no material changes, outside of the ordinary course of business, to our contractual obligations as previously disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Our credit risk is currently concentrated with the following major customers: Sierra Pacific Power Company and Nevada Power Company (subsidiaries of NV Energy), SCPPA and KPLC. If any of these electric utilities fail to make payments under its PPAs with us, such failure would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition. Also, as we implement our multi-year strategic plan we may be exposed, by expanding our customer base, to different credit profile customers than our current customers. 

 

The Company's revenues from its primary customers as a percentage of total revenues are as follows:

Government Grants and Tax Benefits 

 

A comprehensive discussion on government grants and tax benefits is included in our 2022 Annual Report. There has been some change to the comprehensive discussion as noted below.

 

On August 16, 2022, the President of the United States signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which is effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. Additional information in respect of the Inflation Reduction Act is detailed under Note 1 and 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this report.

 

Ormat Systems received “Benefited Enterprise” status under Israel’s Law for Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 (the Investment Law), with respect to two of its investment programs through 2011. In January 2011, new legislation amending the Investment Law was enacted. Under the new legislation, a uniform rate of corporate tax will apply to all qualified income of certain industrial companies, as opposed to the previous law’s incentives that are limited to income from a “Benefited Enterprise” during their benefits period. As a result, we now pay a uniform corporate tax rate of 16% with respect to that qualified income. In March 2023, Ormat Systems received an approval from the Israeli Innovation Authority that it owns an "Innovation Promoting Enterprise" and therefore is eligible for a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on its "Preferred Technological Income" for the tax years 2021 through 2023 (effective tax rate of approximately 13% for 2021 through 2023). The tax benefit of lower effective tax rate is reflected in the 2023 net income.

The information appearing under the headings “Exposure to Market Risks” and “Concentration of Credit Risk” in Part I, Item 2 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is incorporated by reference herein.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

a. Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO (principal executive officer) and CFO (principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023 to provide the reasonable assurance described above.

 

b.  Changes in internal control over financial reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting in the second quarter of 2023 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

A comprehensive discussion of our other risk factors is included in the “Risk Factors” section of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 which was filed with the SEC on February 24, 2023. The risks described in our Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes in our risk factors as previously disclosed except the following:

 

Conditions in and around Israel, where the majority of our senior management and our main production and manufacturing facilities are located, may adversely affect our operations and may limit our ability to produce and sell our products or manage our power plants.

 

The majority of our senior management and our main production and manufacturing facilities are located in Israel, approximately 26 miles from the border with the Gaza Strip. As such, political, economic and security conditions in Israel and the Middle East region directly affect our operations.

 

The political instability and civil unrest in the Middle East and North Africa, as well as the increased tension between Iran and Israel, have raised new concerns regarding security in the region and the potential for armed conflict or other hostilities involving Israel, any of which could impede our ability to manufacture and support our products offerings. We could be adversely affected by any such hostilities, the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners, or a significant downturn in the economic or financial condition of Israel. In addition, the sale of products manufactured in Israel may be adversely affected in certain countries by restrictive laws, policies or practices directed toward Israel or companies having operations in Israel. If our facilities become temporarily or permanently disabled by an act of terrorism or war, we may be required to develop alternative infrastructure and we may not be able to avoid service interruptions. These events and conditions could disrupt our operations in Israel, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, future results, and cash flow.

 

Additionally, political conditions within Israel or relationships between Israel and its allies also impact our operations. Israel has held five general elections in the last four years (twice in 2019, once in 2020, once in 2021 and once in 2022), due to the difficulty of forming a stable government under the conditions of Israel’s parliamentary system. The uncertainty surrounding future elections and/or the results of such elections in Israel may continue and the political situation in Israel may further deteriorate.  Since early 2023, the Israeli government has promoted proposed legislative amendments to reform the country’s legal and judicial systems. In response to the proposed changes, there have been throughout this period, and may continue to be going forward, widespread political unrest, protests, work strikes and other disruptions.  Individuals, organizations and institutions, both within and outside of Israel, have voiced concerns that such changes may negatively impact the business environment in Israel, including due to reluctance of foreign investors to invest or conduct business in Israel, increased currency fluctuations, downgrades in credit rating, increased interest rates, increased volatility in securities markets, decreased military security (due to civil disobedience by reservists and conscripted individuals), political instability or civil unrest, adverse impacts on the labor market, and other related changes in macroeconomic conditions. In late July 2023, Israel’s governing coalition voted in favor of the adoption of one of its proposed reforms to the judicial system, again sparking widespread protests, and the Supreme Court announced that it would hear challenges against the proposed law. We cannot be certain when the continued unrest will end, whether the enacted law will be upheld or whether it will create a constitutional crisis, and/or whether the remaining agenda items of the planned legal and judicial reforms will occur or in what form. We also can make no assurance regarding the implications on the Israeli market or economy (if at all).  As such, we cannot be certain how investors will assess these matters and whether this assessment will adversely impact perception of our business and our share price, or impact our business operations in Israel. To the extent that any of these negative developments occur or continue to occur, they may have an adverse effect on our business, our results of operations and our ability to raise additional funds, if deemed necessary by our management and board of directors.

(c) On April 2, 2023, each of Doron Blachar, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Isaac Angel, the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, entered into written stock selling plans in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (each, a “10b5-1 Plan”).   Mr. Angel’s 10b5-1 Plan provides for the sale of a maximum of 334,514 shares of common stock, including 39,615 shares underlying RSUs and 294,899 shares underlying stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), and will expire upon the earlier of December 31, 2023 or when all shares are sold.  Mr. Blachar’s 10b5-1 Plan provides for the sale of a maximum of 68,252 shares of common stock underlying SARs, and will expire upon the earlier of November 7, 2023 or when all shares are sold. 

 

Except as may be required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or report any modification, termination, or other activity under current or future Rule 10b5-1 plans that may be adopted by other officers or directors of the Company.
