GENERAL

a.
SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries design, develop, and sell an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual photovoltaic (“PV”) module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. The Company’s products consist mainly of (i) power optimizers designed to maximize energy throughput from each and every module through constant tracking of Maximum Power Point individually per module, (ii) inverters which invert direct current (DC) from the PV module to alternating current (AC) and (iii) a related cloud-based monitoring platform, that collects and processes information from the power optimizers and inverters of a solar PV system to enable customers and system owners as applicable, to monitor and manage the solar PV systems. In addition, the Company has a storage solution that is used to increase energy independence and maximize self-consumption for homeowners by utilizing a battery that is sold separately by third party manufacturers, to store and supply power as needed (the “StorEdge solution”). The StorEdge solution is designed to provide smart energy functions such as maximizing self-consumption, Time-of-Use programming for desired hours of the day, and home energy backup solutions.

The Company and its subsidiaries sells its products worldwide directly to large solar installers and engineering, procurement and construction firms (“EPCs”), as well as through large distributors and electrical equipment wholesalers to smaller solar installers.

The Company was incorporated in Delaware in August 2006 and began commercial sale of its products in January 2010.

b.
Recent accounting pronouncements:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in the more timely recognition of losses. ASU 2016-13 also applies to employee benefit plan accounting, with an effective date of the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements, footnote disclosures and employee benefit plans’ accounting.

c.
The significant accounting policies applied in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2016 are applied consistently in these financial statements.

Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X, “Interim Financial Statements” and the rules and regulations for Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to those rules and regulations, the Company has condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosure it normally includes in its annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

In management’s opinion, the Company has made all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated) necessary to fairly present its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company’s interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. These financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the 2016 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 filed with the SEC on August 17, 2016 (the “2016 Form 10-K”). There have been no changes in the significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 included in the 2016 Form 10-K.

In August 2016, the Company announced that its fiscal year-end will begin on January 1 and end on December 31 of each year, starting on January 1, 2017.

Fiscal year 2016, which ended on June 30, 2016, will be followed by a transition period from July 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016. The Company plans to disclose the results of the transition period on a form 10-KT transition report.

e.
The Company depends on two contract manufacturers and several limited or single source component suppliers. Reliance on these vendors makes the Company vulnerable to possible capacity constraints and reduced control over component availability, delivery schedules, manufacturing yields and costs.

Two vendors collectively account for 62.8% (unaudited) and 69% of the Company’s total trade payables as of September 30, 2016 (unaudited) and June 30, 2016, respectively.

The Company has the right to offset its payables to one of its contract manufacturers against vendor non-trade receivables. As of September 30, 2016 a total of $2,177 of these receivables met the criteria for net recognition and were offset against the corresponding accounts payable balances for this contract manufacturer in the accompanying condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

f.
Derivative financial instruments:

The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging based on ASC 815 (“Derivatives and Hedging”). ASC 815 requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship.

To protect against the increase in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from salary payments of its Israeli facilities denominated in the Israeli currency, the New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”), during the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of the anticipated payroll payments denominated in NIS for a period of one to twelve months with hedging contracts. Accordingly, when the dollar strengthens against the foreign currencies, the decline in present value of future foreign currency expenses is offset by losses in the fair value of the hedging contracts. Conversely, when the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is offset by gains in the fair value of the hedging contracts. These hedging contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815 and are all effective hedges.

In accordance with ASC 815, for derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge (i.e. hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any gain or loss on a derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item is recognized in current earnings during the period of change.

In addition to the above mentioned cash flow hedges transactions, the Company also entered into derivative instrument arrangements to hedge the Company’s exposure to currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These derivative instruments are not designated as cash flows hedges, as defined by ASC 815, and therefore all gains and losses, resulted from fair value remeasurements, were recorded immediately in the statement of operations, as financial expenses, net.

As of September 30, 2016, the Company entered into forward contracts and put and call options to sell U.S. dollars for NIS and Euros for U.S. dollars in the amount of $8,846 and 15 million Euro, respectively. These hedging contracts do not contain any credit-risk-related contingency features. See Note 5 for information on the fair value of these hedging contracts.

REVOLVING CREDIT LINE

In June 2011, the Company entered into an agreement for a revolving line of credit from a Bank Lender (the "Bank Lender").

On February 17, 2015, the Company amended and restated the agreement with the Bank Lender for a revolving line of credit, which permits aggregate borrowings of up to $40 million in an amount not to exceed 80% of the eligible accounts receivable and bears interest, payable monthly, at the Bank Lender’s prime rate plus a margin of 0.5% to 2.0%. The amended and restated revolving line of credit will terminate, and outstanding borrowings will be payable, on December 31, 2016.

In connection with the amended and restated revolving line of credit, the Company granted the Bank Lender security interests in substantially all of the Company’s assets, including a first‑priority security interest in the Company’s trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents. Financial covenants contained in the agreement require the Company to maintain EBITDA and liquidity at specified levels.

The Company is required to maintain liquidity (defined as unrestricted and unencumbered cash, plus availability under the amended and restated revolving line of credit) of $6,750.

The amended and restated revolving line of credit also contains covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to dispose of assets, engage in business combinations (or permit a subsidiary to engage in business combinations), grant liens, borrow money, or pay dividends.

NOTE 5:-
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company applies ASC 820 (“Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”), with respect to fair value measurements of all financial assets and liabilities.

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer 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 a liability.

A three-tiered fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1-
Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2-
Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3-
Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

a.
Guarantees:

As of September 30, 2016 (unaudited), contingent liabilities exist regarding guarantees in the amount of $633, $53 and $85 in respect of office rent lease agreements, customs transactions and credit card limits, respectively.

b.
Royalty and Governmental commitments:

As of September 30, 2016 (unaudited), the aggregate contingent liability to the Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation (BIRD‑F) amounted to approximately $1,148 which would be payable by the Company if it ever did generate revenues from such project.

The Company’s Israeli subsidiary receives research and development grants from the Office of the Chief Scientist (the OCS). In consideration for the research and development grants received from the OCS, the Company has undertaken to pay royalties as a percentage of revenues from products developed from research and development projects financed. If the Company will not generate sales of products developed with funds provided by the OCS, the Company is not obligated to pay royalties or repay the grants.

Royalties are payable at the rate of 4% to 4.5% from the time of commencement of sales of all of these products until the cumulative amount of the royalties paid equals 100% of the dollar-linked amounts of the grants received, plus interest at LIBOR rate.

As of September 30, 2016 (unaudited), the aggregate contingent liability to the OCS amounted to $999.

c.
Contractual purchase obligations:

The Company has contractual obligations to purchase goods and raw materials. These contractual purchase obligations relate to inventories held by contract manufacturers and purchase orders initiated by the contract manufacturers and suppliers, which cannot be canceled without penalty. The Company utilizes third parties to manufacture its products. In addition, it acquires raw materials or other goods and services, including product components, by issuing to suppliers authorizations to purchase based on its projected demand and manufacturing needs.

These accruals are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.

BASIC AND DILUTED NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing the net earnings by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

The total weighted average number of shares related to the outstanding stock options, excluded from the calculation of diluted net earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect was 235,845 and 0 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 (unaudited) and 2015 (unaudited), respectively.

Basic and diluted earnings per share is presented in conformity with the two-class method for participating securities for the periods prior to their conversion. Under this method the earnings per share for each class of shares are calculated assuming 100% of the Company's earnings are distributed as dividends to each class of shares based on their contractual rights.

Overview
 
We have invented an intelligent inverter solution that has changed the way power is harvested and managed in a solar photovoltaic (“PV”) system. Our direct current (“DC”) optimized inverter system is designed to maximize power generation at the individual PV module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. Our systems allow for superior power harvesting and module management by deploying power optimizers at each PV module while maintaining a competitive system cost by using a simplified DC AC inverter. Our systems are monitored through our cloud-based monitoring platform that enables lower system operating and maintenance (“O&M”) costs. We believe that these benefits, along with our comprehensive and advanced safety features, are highly valued by our customers.
 
Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were $128.5 million and $115.1 million, respectively. Gross margin was 32.6% and 29.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Net income was $15.6 million and $14.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
 
5

 
As of September 30, 2016, we have shipped approximately 14.1 million power optimizers and 576,000 inverters. Approximately 298,900 installations, many of which may include multiple inverters, are currently connected to, and monitored through, our cloud‑based monitoring platform. As of September 30, 2016, we have shipped approximately 3.8 GW of our DC optimized inverter systems. Our products are sold in approximately 47 countries, and are installed in solar PV systems in 100 countries.
 
As of September 30, 2016, approximately 188,500 indirect customers had registered with us through our cloud‑based monitoring platform.
 
Recent Developments
 
In January 2016, we announced the commercial availability of our StorEdgeTM solutions.  Our StorEdgeTM solution allows homeowners to maximimze self-consumption and to enable independence, by storing unusued PV power in a battery and allowing such power to be used by the homeowner when needed.  The StorEdgeTM solution is based on a single inverter for both PV power generation and storage.
 
In February 2016, we shipped our ten millionth power optimizer.
 
In June 2016, we began shipments of our HD-Wave inverter
 
Key Operating Metrics
 
In managing our business and assessing financial performance, we supplement the information provided by the financial statements with other operating metrics. These operating metrics are utilized by our management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and formulate projections. We use metrics relating to shipments (inverters shipped, power optimizers shipped and megawatts shipped) to evaluate our sales performance and to track market acceptance of our products. We use metrics relating to monitoring (systems monitored) to evaluate market acceptance of our products and usage of our solution.
 
We provide the “megawatts shipped” metric, which is calculated based on nameplate capacity shipped, to show adoption of our system on a nameplate capacity basis. Nameplate capacity shipped is the maximum rated power output capacity of an inverter and corresponds to our financial results in that higher total capacities shipped are generally associated with higher total revenues. However, revenues increase with each additional unit, not necessarily each additional MW of capacity, sold. Accordingly, we also provide the “inverters shipped” and “power optimizers shipped” operating metrics.

Revenues increased by $13.4 million, or 11.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to an increase in the number of systems sold in the U.S.  and Europe. The number of power optimizers sold increased by approximately 0.2 million units, or 14.1%, from approximately 1.4 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2015 to approximately 1.6 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2016. The number of inverters sold increased by approximately 14,200 units, or 28.5%, from approximately 49,800 units in the three months ended September 30, 2015 to approximately 64,000 units in the three months ended September 30, 2016. Our blended average selling price per watt for units shipped decreased by $0.052, or 15.9%, in the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to (i) an increase in sales of commercial products that are characterized by lower average selling prices per watt; (ii) price erosion in the overall inverter market; (iii) a change in our geographic mix, specifically in sales to Europe where the devaluation of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar in calendar 2016 reduced our average selling price when translated into U.S. Dollars; and (iv) a change in our customer mix, which included a higher portion of sales to large customers to whom we provide volume discounts.

As of September 30, 2016, our cash and cash equivalents were $90.0 million. This amount does not include $115.7 million invested in available-for-sale marketable securities and $0.9 million of restricted cash (primarily held to secure bank guarantees securing office lease payments). On March 31, 2015, we consummated our initial public offering in which we sold 8,050,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $18.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $131.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and $3.6 million in offering expenses paid by us. We maintain the net proceeds received from our initial public offering as well as cash provided by operating activites in cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale marketable securities. We believe that cash provided by operating activities as well as our cash and cash equivalents, including the net proceeds from our initial public offering, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months.
 
Operating Activities
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, cash provided by operating activities was $24.4 million derived mainly from a net income of $15.6 million that included $4.7 million of non-cash expenses. An increase of $5.2 million in warranty obligations, $1.9 million accruals for employees and a decrease of $13.1 million in inventories, $4.2 million in prepaid expenses and other receivables and $2.2 million in deferred tax assets which were offset by an increase of $12.1 million in trade receivables, net, and a decrease of $10.4 million in trade payables and other accounts payable.

Debt Obligations
 
Revolving Line of Credit
 
In February 2015, we amended and restated a revolving line of credit agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), which permits aggregate borrowings of up to $40 million in an amount not to exceed 80% of the eligible accounts receivable and bears interest, payable monthly, at SVB’s prime rate plus a margin of 0.5% to 2.0%. The revolving line of credit will terminate on December 31, 2016 and will not be extended. As of September 30, 2016, we had no outstanding borrowings under the  line of credit with SVB.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, customer concentrations and interest rates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
 
Approximately 28.0% and 24.2% of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, were earned in non‑U.S. Dollar denominated currencies, principally the Euro. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, primarily the U.S. Dollar and New Israeli Shekel, and to a lesser extent the Euro. Our New Israeli Shekel‑denominated expenses consist primarily of personnel and overhead costs. Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the three months ended September 30, 2016, between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the three months ended September 30, 2016, between the New Israeli Shekel and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.
 
For purposes of our consolidated financial statements, local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange to the U.S. Dollar on the balance sheet date and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rate as of the date of the transaction or at the average exchange rate to the U.S. Dollar during the reporting period.
 
To date, we have used derivative financial instruments, specifically foreign currency forward contracts, to manage exposure to foreign currency risks by hedging a portion of our account receivable balances denominated in Euros expected to be paid within nine months. Our foreign currency forward contracts are expected to mitigate exchange rate changes related to the hedged assets. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
 
We had cash and cash equivalents of $90.0 million and available-for-sale marketable securities with an estimated fair value of $115.7 million on September 30, 2016, which securities were held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Since most of our cash and cash equivalents are held in U.S. Dollar‑denominated money market funds, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents do not have any material exposure to changes in exchange rates.

Concentrations of Major Customers
 
Our trade accounts receivables potentially expose us to a concentration of credit risk with our major customers. As of September 30, 2016, two major customers accounted for approximately 31.1% of our consolidated trade receivables balance. We currently do not foresee a credit risk associated with these receivables.
 
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2016. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
 
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Based on an evaluation by our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, such officers concluded that there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
In the normal course of business, we may from time to time be named as a party to various legal claims, actions and complaints.

ITEM 1A   RISK FACTORS

The offering terminated after the sale of all securities registered in the offering. Goldman, Sachs & Co. acted as joint book-running managers for the offering.

As a result of the offering, we received total net offering proceeds of $131.2 million, after deducting total expenses of $13.7 million, consisting of underwriting discounts and commissions of $10.1 million and offering related expenses paid by us of $3.6 million. No payments for such expenses were made directly or indirectly to (i) any of our officers or directors or their associates, (ii) any persons owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities, or (iii) any of our affiliates.
 
We maintain the funds received in cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale marketable securitties. Our principal uses of these proceeds from the initial public offering is general corporate purposes, including working capital and expansion of our business into additional markets.
