SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

competition from other wind blade and wind blade turbine manufacturers;
the discovery of defects in our products and our ability to estimate the future cost of warranty campaigns;
the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents to meet our liquidity needs;
the increasing cost and availability of additional capital, should such capital be needed;
our projected sales and costs, including materials costs and capital expenditures, during the current fiscal year;
our projected business model during the current fiscal year, including with respect to the number of wind blade manufacturing lines we anticipate;
our ability to service our current debt and comply with any covenants related to such debt;
the current status of the wind energy market and our addressable market;
our ability to absorb or mitigate the impact of price increases in resin, carbon reinforcements (or fiber), other raw materials and related logistics costs that we use to produce our products;
our ability to absorb or mitigate the impact of wage inflation in the countries in which we operate;
our ability to procure adequate supplies of raw materials and components to fulfill our wind blade volume commitments to our customers;
the potential impact of the increasing prevalence of auction-based tenders in the wind energy market and increased competition from solar energy on our gross margins and overall financial performance;
our future financial performance, including our net sales, cost of goods sold, gross profit or gross margin, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash flow and ability to achieve or maintain profitability;
changes in domestic or international government or regulatory policy, including without limitation, changes in trade policy and energy policy;
changes in global economic trends and uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and demand or supply disruptions from global events;
changes in macroeconomic and market conditions, including the potential impact of any pandemic, risk of recession, rising interest rates and inflation, supply chain constraints, commodity prices and exchange rates, and the impact of such changes on our business and results of operations;
our ability to attract and retain customers for our products, and to optimize product pricing;
our ability to effectively manage our growth strategy and future expenses, including our startup and transition costs;
our ability to successfully expand in our existing wind energy markets and into new international wind energy markets, including our ability to expand our field service inspection and repair services business;
our ability to keep up with market changes and innovations;
our ability to successfully open new manufacturing facilities and expand existing facilities on time and on budget;
the impact of the pace of new product and wind blade model introductions on our business and our results of operations;
our ability to identify and execute a strategic alternative to enable the growth of our automotive business;
our ability to maintain, protect and enhance our intellectual property;

2


 

our ability to comply with existing, modified or new laws and regulations applying to our business, including the imposition of new taxes, duties or similar assessments on our products;
the attraction and retention of qualified associates and key personnel;
our ability to maintain good working relationships with our associates, and avoid labor disruptions, strikes and other disputes with labor unions that represent certain of our associates; and
the potential impact of one or more of our customers becoming bankrupt or insolvent, or experiencing other financial problems.

These forward-looking statements are only predictions. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to materially differ from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. We have described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 22, 2024 the principal risks and uncertainties that we believe could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as guarantees of future events.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or developments after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by the SEC. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of our management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at March 31, 2024, and the results of our operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TPI Composites, Inc. and all of our majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

References to TPI Composites, Inc, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” in these notes refer to TPI Composites, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has determined that no recent accounting pronouncements apply to our operations or could otherwise have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Discontinued Operations

In December 2022, we committed to a restructuring plan to rebalance our organization and optimize our global manufacturing footprint. Changing economic and geopolitical factors, including increased logistics costs and tariffs imposed on components of wind turbines from China, including wind blades, had an adverse impact on demand and profitability for our wind blades manufactured in our Chinese facilities. In connection with our restructuring plan, we ceased production at our Yangzhou, China manufacturing facility as of December 31, 2022 and are in the final stages of shutting down our business operations in China. Our business operations in China comprised the entirety of our Asia reporting segment. This shut down had a meaningful effect on our global manufacturing footprint and consolidated financial results. Accordingly, the historical results of our Asia reporting segment have been presented as discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets consist of the amount of revenue recognized over time for performance obligations in production where control has transferred to the customer but the contract does not yet allow for the customer to be billed. Typically, customers are billed when the product finishes production and meets the technical specifications contained in the contract. The majority of the contract asset balance relates to materials procured based on customer specifications. The contract assets are recorded as current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments in excess of revenue earned. The contract liabilities are recorded as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are reduced as we record revenue over time.

These contract assets and liabilities are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets net on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

Gross contract assets increased by $14.8 million from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in customer specific material purchases and incremental unbilled production during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Gross contract liabilities increased by $20.1 million from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in customer advances during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized $13.8 million of revenue related to customer advances, which was included in the corresponding contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price for which work has not been performed and excludes any unexercised contract options. The transaction price includes estimated variable consideration as determined based on the estimated production output within the range of the contractual guaranteed minimum volume obligations and production capacity.

As of March 31, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations to be satisfied in future periods was approximately $1.2 billion. We estimate that we will recognize the remaining performance obligations as revenue as follows:

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, net revenue recognized from our performance obligations satisfied in previous periods decreased by $5.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily relate to changes in certain of our estimated total contract values and related direct costs to complete the performance obligations.

Note 4. Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Our revenues and receivables are earned from a small number of customers. As such, our production levels are dependent on these customers’ orders. See Note 13, Concentration of Customers.

There have been numerous government initiatives over the past few years aimed at expanding the use of renewable energy, including the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in the U.S, and several policy initiatives in the European Union (EU) that are expected to accelerate the expansion of renewable energy and green technologies, simplify regulations, speed up permitting and promote cross-border projects to accelerate climate neutrality. Despite these favorable long-term policy trends, we expect reduced demand in the near term while the wind industry awaits clarity on the implementation guidance related to key components of the IRA, clarity around more robust policies in the EU, and industry headwinds caused by rising interest rates and inflation.

We maintain our U.S. cash in bank deposit and money market mutual fund accounts that, at times, exceed U.S. federally insured limits. U.S. bank accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in an amount up to $250,000 during 2024 and 2023. U.S. money market mutual fund accounts are not guaranteed by the FDIC. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $106.0 million and $116.0 million, respectively, of cash in bank deposit and money market mutual fund accounts in U.S. banks, which were in excess of FDIC limits. We have not experienced losses to date in any such accounts.

We also maintain cash in bank deposit accounts outside the U.S. that are not subject to FDIC limits. At March 31, 2024, this included $4.3 million in Türkiye, $1.2 million in India, $2.8 million in Mexico and $2.5 million in other countries. As of December 31, 2023, this included $40.6 million in Türkiye, $1.9 million in India, $1.2 million in Mexico and $1.3 million in other countries. We have not experienced losses to date in these accounts. In addition, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had short-term deposits in interest bearing accounts in the U.S. of $12.0 million and $10.8 million, respectively, which are reported as restricted cash in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents related to our discontinued operations of $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Note 7. Share-Based Compensation Plans

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we granted to certain employees an aggregate of 514,457 timed-based restricted stock units (RSUs), 151,795 performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs) that vest upon achievement of annual, adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) targets measured from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026, 181,371 PSUs that vest upon achievement of certain cumulative total shareholder return (TSR) targets measured from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026 and 30,000 stock options. The RSUs that were granted during the period vest over a three-year period with 25% of the RSUs vesting on the first and second anniversary of the grant date, and 50% vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date. Each of the time-based and performance-based RSU awards are subject to the recipient’s continued service with us, the terms and conditions of our stock option and incentive plan and the applicable award agreement. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, we issued 1,022,318 shares related to previous RSU awards with a guaranteed value. These additional shares were issued on the second anniversary of the grant date to maintain the original guaranteed award value.

Note 9. Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we reported an income tax provision of $3.3 million as compared to an income tax provision of $3.9 million in the comparative prior year period. The decrease during the three months ended March 31, 2024, resulted primarily from the change in the mix of earnings of foreign jurisdictions.

No changes in tax law occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2024, which had a material impact on our income tax provision. We do not record a deferred tax liability related to unremitted earnings as we maintain our assertion to indefinitely reinvest our unremitted foreign earnings.

We use the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes on diluted net loss per common share. The Convertible Notes would have a diluted impact on net income per share when the average price of our Common Stock for a given period exceeds the respective conversion price of the Convertible Notes. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we had 8,816,881 potentially issuable shares of Common Stock related to our Convertible Notes that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as the effect of including these shares in the calculation would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims, and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, some of which may not be covered by insurance. Upon resolution of any pending legal matters, we may incur charges in excess of presently established reserves. Our management does not believe that any such charges would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2021, we received a complaint that was filed by the administrator for the Senvion GmbH (Senvion) insolvency estate in German insolvency court. The complaint asserts voidance against us in the aggregate amount of $13.3 million. The alleged voidance claims relate to payments that Senvion made to us for wind blades that we produced prior to Senvion filing for insolvency protection. We filed a response to these alleged voidance claims in August 2021 and filed a supplemental response in April 2022. We believe we have meritorious defenses to the alleged voidance claims. Due to the current procedural posture of this claim, we have determined that the ultimate outcome cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including information with respect to plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those described in or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or in our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, particularly those under the heading “Risk Factors.”

OVERVIEW

Our Company

We are the only independent manufacturer of composite wind blades for the wind energy market with a global manufacturing footprint. We deliver high-quality, cost-effective composite solutions through long-term relationships with leading original equipment manufacturers (OEM) in the wind and automotive markets. We also provide field service inspection and repair services to our OEM customers and wind farm owners and operators. We are headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona and operate factories in the U.S., Mexico, Türkiye, and India. We operate additional engineering development centers in Denmark and Germany and a services facility in Spain.

Our business operations are defined geographically into four geographic operating segments—(1) the United States (U.S.), (2) Mexico, (3) Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and (4) India. See Note 14, Segment Reporting, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details about our operating segments. In December 2022, the Company ceased business operations in China, which comprised the entirety of our Asia reporting segment. Accordingly, the historical results of our Asia reporting segment have been presented as discontinued operations, refer to Note 2 – Discontinued Operations of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

KEY TRENDS AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS

 

Geopolitical events around the world have accelerated regional needs for energy independence and security. Climate change also continues to drive the need for renewable energy solutions and net-zero carbon emissions. Over the course of the past few years, we have seen numerous government policy initiatives aimed at expanding the use of renewable energy, including the passing of the IRA in the U.S. and several policy initiatives in the EU that are expected to simplify regulations, speed up permitting and promote cross-border projects to accelerate climate neutrality. We expect these recent trends in governmental policy will enable long-term revenue growth in the wind industry. As the majority of our wind blades are installed in the U.S. and Europe, these policy trends are expected to have a material impact on our business and the pace of long-term growth. In recent months, we have also seen announcements from our customers of growing order backlogs that support our long-term growth expectations.

 

Despite these favorable long-term policy trends, we expect reduced demand in the near term while the wind industry awaits clarity on the implementation guidance related to key components of the IRA and clarity around more robust policies in the EU. In addition, permitting, transmission, transmission queues, the ability of the broader wind industry supply chain to ramp volume, elevated interest rates and inflation, and the cost and availability of capital are further factors limiting the timing of the wind market recovery. We expect to have six manufacturing lines in startup and four manufacturing lines in transition during 2024 as our customers prepare for anticipated stronger demand beginning in 2025. Four of the manufacturing lines in startup will be in Juarez, Mexico at a previously idle manufacturing facility and two of the manufacturing lines in startup will be in Türkiye where two longer blade lines will replace three blade lines due to space considerations. The four manufacturing lines in transition will all occur in one of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facilities. For the other Matamoros, Mexico facility, which is a four-line manufacturing facility we took over from Nordex in July 2021, we plan to exit this location at the end of the three-year contract on June 30, 2024. The impact of all these changes, along with near term demand reductions from one of our customers as they consider existing inventory levels and contemplate changes in geographic demand, is expected to result in 2024 sales down slightly from 2023. Sales are expected to be lower in the first half of the year as we work through the ten lines in startup and transition. In the second half of the year, we expect these ten lines in startup and transition will achieve serial production levels resulting in mid-single digit adjusted EBITDA margins and positive free cash flow.

 

Our results of operations have been adversely impacted by the performance of the Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021. We experienced a loss from operations of $9.5 million and $6.7 million at this facility for the

21


 

three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in this loss from operations was primarily due to a 27% decrease in the volume of wind blades produced due to environmental conditions including extreme cold temperatures and humidity issues at this facility affecting production. The loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was reduced by the impact of a positive cumulative catch-up adjustment of approximately $5.6 million as a result of a change in certain of our estimated total contract values and related costs to complete the performance obligations over the remaining term of the contract.

 

Ongoing inflationary pressures have caused and may continue to cause many of our production expenses to increase, which adversely impacts our results of operations. The government of Mexico increased minimum wages 20% effective January 1, 2024. The government of Türkiye increased minimum wages 49% effective January 1, 2024. While our customer contracts allow us to pass a portion of these increases to our customers, we will not be able to recover 100% of the increased labor costs caused by this wage inflation. If our manufacturing facilities in these countries continue to experience wage inflation at these levels and the increased costs in local currency are not offset with favorable foreign currency fluctuations or productivity improvements, such elevated wages will have a material impact on our results of operations.

 

We have made significant investments to expand the automotive business during the last several years. While we believe there is increasing demand for composite products for electric vehicles, we intend to prioritize capital for growth in the wind blade business in the near term. As a result, we are in the process of exploring strategic alternatives to ensure our automotive business is sufficiently funded to execute on its growth strategies. We expect to complete this process no later than June 30, 2024, which could result in a material non-cash impairment of the business's assets.

KEY METRICS USED BY MANAGEMENT TO MEASURE PERFORMANCE

In addition to measures of financial performance presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we use certain other financial measures and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These “non-GAAP” financial measures consist of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and net cash (debt), which help us evaluate growth trends, establish budgets, assess operational efficiencies, oversee our overall liquidity, and evaluate our overall financial performance. The key operating metrics consist of wind blade sets produced, estimated megawatts of energy capacity to be generated by wind blade sets produced, utilization, dedicated manufacturing lines, manufacturing lines installed, and weighted-average sales price (ASP) per wind blade, all of which help us evaluate our operational performance. Weighted-average sales price per wind blade represents the average sales price during the period for a single wind blade that we manufacture for our customers. We believe that these measures are useful to investors in evaluating our performance. For a detailed discussion of our key financial measures and our key operating metrics, refer to the discussion in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Key Metrics Used By Management To Measure Performance” included in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The decrease in net sales of wind blades, tooling and other wind related sales (collectively, Wind) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 25% decrease in the number of wind blades produced due to the number of lines that we are starting up or transitioning, expected volume declines based on market activity levels, and lower average sales prices of wind blades due to changes in the mix of wind blade models produced. This decrease was partially offset by favorable foreign currency fluctuations, and an increase in tooling sales in preparation for manufacturing line startups and transitions. The decrease in automotive sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a decrease in sales of composite bus bodies as a result of Proterra's bankruptcy during the third quarter of 2023, partially offset by an increase in sales of other automotive products due to the launch of a new product line. The decrease in field service, inspection and repair services (collectively, Field Services) sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a reduction in technicians deployed to revenue generating projects due to an increase in time spent on non-revenue generating inspection and repair activities. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro in our Türkiye operations had a favorable impact of 0.4% on consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

The decrease in the Mexico segment’s net sales of Wind for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 10% net decrease in the number of wind blades produced across our Mexico manufacturing facilities, partially offset by higher average sales prices of wind blades in Mexico due to changes in the mix of wind blade models produced and the impact of inflation on wind blade prices. The change in volume was primarily associated with decreased production at one of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facilities due to the transition of several of the manufacturing lines at this facility to larger wind blade models during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The change in volume was also due to a 27% decrease in the number of wind blades produced at the Matamoros, Mexico facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021 due to environmental conditions including extreme cold temperatures and humidity issues at this facility. This decrease was offset by a combined 23% increase in the number of wind blades produced at our facilities in Juarez, Mexico and a $6.1 million increase in tooling sales in preparation for manufacturing line startups and transitions.

The decrease in the EMEA segment’s net sales of Wind for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 42% decrease in the number of wind blades produced due to reduced market demand for one of our customers' wind blade models at one of our Türkiye manufacturing facilities and the transition of certain manufacturing lines to a different customers' wind blade model at our other Türkiye facility, as well as lower average sales prices of wind blades in Türkiye due to such changes in the mix of wind blade models produced. The decrease was partially offset by favorable foreign currency fluctuations.

Total cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased by approximately 10.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily driven by an increase in startup and transition costs associated with four manufacturing lines in startup in Juarez, Mexico at a previously idle manufacturing facility, two manufacturing lines in transition at one of our Türkiye facilities where two longer blade models will replace three blade models due to space considerations, and four

manufacturing lines in transition at one of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facilities. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was also due to increased labor costs in Türkiye and Mexico as a result of wage increases, an $8.0 million increase in warranty costs due to changes in estimates, and continued cost challenges at facilities in Matamoros, Mexico, including a $9.5 million loss from operations at our facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021. These unfavorable items were partially offset by favorable foreign currency fluctuations. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro, Turkish Lira, Mexican Peso and Indian Rupee had a combined favorable impact of 4.3% on consolidated cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

U.S. Segment

The increase in the loss from operations in the U.S. segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily impacted by increased travel expenses in the first quarter of 2024 and recoveries of COVID-19-related relief for payroll tax credits in the prior comparative period that were not in the current period, partially offset by recoveries of accounts receivable in the current period that were previously written off to bad debt expense related to Proterra’s bankruptcy.

Mexico Segment

The increase in loss from operations in the Mexico segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 10% decrease in the volume of wind blades produced, increased startup and transition costs, increased labor costs, increased warranty costs and continued cost challenges at our facilities in Matamoros, Mexico, and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations. These unfavorable items were partially offset by higher average sales prices. The fluctuating U.S. dollar relative to the Mexican Peso had an unfavorable impact of 2.1% on the Mexico segment’s cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

EMEA Segment

The change in loss from operations in the EMEA segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to income from operations in the same period in 2023 was primarily due to a 42% decrease in the volume of wind blades produced, increased startup and transition costs, inflation impacting operating costs that we were not able to pass on to our customers, and increased labor costs as a result of wage increases in Türkiye. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in wind blade prices, cost savings initiatives, and favorable foreign currency fluctuations. The fluctuating U.S. dollar relative to the Turkish Lira and Euro had a favorable impact of 18.9% on the EMEA segment's cost of goods sold, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

India Segment

The decrease in income from operations in the India segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 23% decrease in the volume of wind blades produced and lower average sales prices.

The change in net income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to the closure of production at our Yangzhou, China facility at the end of 2022.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary needs for liquidity have been, and in the future will continue to be, capital expenditures, purchases of raw materials, new facility startup costs, costs related to the Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021, the impact of line start ups and transitions, working capital, debt service costs, warranty costs and restructuring costs associated with the optimization of our global footprint. Our capital expenditures have been primarily related to machinery and equipment for new facilities or facility expansions. Historically, we have funded our working capital needs through cash flows from operations, the proceeds received from our credit facilities and term debt, and proceeds received from the issuance of stock.

We had net proceeds under all of our various financing arrangements of $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to net proceeds under our financing arrangements of $110.3 million in the comparable period of 2023, primarily due to the issuance of the Convertible Notes in the prior comparative period. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $509.6 million and $485.2 million in outstanding indebtedness, net of issuance costs and debt discount, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, we had an aggregate of $60.0 million of remaining capacity for cash and non-cash financing, including $55.0 million of remaining availability for cash borrowing under our various credit facilities. Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations, we believe that cash on hand, available credit facilities, and cash flow from operations will be adequate to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements and to make required payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness over the next twelve months.

We anticipate that any new facilities and future facility expansions will be funded through cash flows from operations, the incurrence of other indebtedness and other potential sources of liquidity. The 11% senior secured term loan contains certain covenants and rights including, but not limited to, amount of indebtedness, capital expenditure limitations, a U.S. cash on hand balance requirement of $40.0 million through September 30, 2024 and $50.0 million thereafter.

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling $116.8 million and $161.1 million, respectively. The March 31, 2024 balance includes $10.8 million of cash located outside of the United States, including $4.3 million in Türkiye, $1.2 million in India, $2.8 million in Mexico and $2.5 million in other countries. The December 31, 2023 balance included $45.0 million of cash located outside of the U.S., $40.6 million in Türkiye, $1.9 million in India, $1.2 million in Mexico and $1.3 million in other countries. In addition to these amounts, at both March 31, 2024 and December 31,

2023 we had $0.9 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents related to our discontinued operations which is held outside of the U.S.

Financing Facilities

Our total principal amount of debt outstanding as of March 31, 2024 was $622.8 million, including our convertible senior notes, secured and unsecured financing, working capital and term loan agreements and equipment finance leases. See Note 6, Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details on our debt balances.

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $44.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a reduction in wind blade inventory included in contract assets driven by working capital initiatives and higher payments in the prior comparative period related to restructuring activities associated with the shutdown of our China operations at the end of 2022. This was partially offset by an increase in net losses during the current period and cash paid for income taxes.

Investing Cash Flows

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to capital expenditures for the startup and transition of our manufacturing lines at our facilities in Mexico and Türkiye.

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $103.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to the proceeds from the Convertible Notes in the prior comparative period.

We are not presently involved in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including transactions with unconsolidated special-purpose or other entities that would materially affect our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources, other than our accounts receivable assignment agreements described below. Furthermore, we do not have any relationships with special-purpose or other entities that provide off-balance sheet financing; liquidity, market risk or credit risk support; or engage in leasing or other services that may expose us to liability or risks of loss that are not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Our segments enter into accounts receivable assignment agreements with various financial institutions. Under these agreements, the financial institution buys, on a non-recourse basis, the accounts receivable amounts related to our segments' customers at an agreed-upon discount rate.

As the receivables are purchased by the financial institutions under the agreements noted above, the receivables are removed from our condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, $95.0 million of receivables were sold under the accounts receivable assignment agreements described above as compared to $224.4 million in the comparative prior year period.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. These market risks are principally limited to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. We conduct international operations in Mexico, Türkiye, India and Europe. Our results of operations are subject to both currency transaction risk and currency translation risk. We incur currency transaction risk whenever we enter into either a purchase or sale transaction using a currency other than the functional currency of the transacting entity. With respect to currency translation risk, our financial condition and results of operations are measured and recorded in the relevant functional currency and then translated into U.S. dollars for inclusion in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In recent years, exchange rates between these foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar have fluctuated significantly and may do so in the future. A hypothetical change of 10% in the exchange rates for the countries above would have resulted in a change to income from operations of approximately $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Commodity Price Risk. We are subject to commodity price risk under agreements for the supply of our raw materials. We have not hedged our commodity price exposure. We generally lock in pricing for most of our key raw materials for 12 months which protects us from price increases within that period, which we believe helps to mitigate the impact of raw material price increases. As many of our raw material supply agreements have meet or release clauses, if raw materials prices decrease, we are able to benefit from the reductions in price.

Resin, resin systems, and carbon fiber are the primary commodities for which we do not have fixed pricing. Approximately 53% of the resin and resin systems, and approximately 71% of the carbon fiber, we use is purchased under contracts either controlled or borne by two of our customers and therefore they receive/bear 100% of any decrease or increase in resin and carbon fiber costs further limiting our exposure to price fluctuations.

Taking into account the contractual obligations of our customers to share with us the cost savings or increases resulting from a change in the current forecasted price of resin and resin systems we believe that a 10% change in the current forecasted price of resin and resin systems for the customers in which we are exposed to fluctuating prices would have an impact to income from operations of approximately $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. With respect to our other customer supply agreements, our customers typically receive approximately 70% of the cost savings or increases resulting from a change in the price of resin, resin systems.

Interest Rate Risk. As of March 31, 2024, all remaining secured and unsecured financing and finance lease obligations are fixed rate instruments and are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates.
