Revenue Guidance: Enlight lowered its 2023 revenue guidance to $265–275 million, citing lower electricity prices and wind production in Spain, but this still implies 41% growth over 2022.
EBITDA Guidance: The company reiterated its full-year adjusted EBITDA outlook of $188–198 million, as lower Spanish revenues are offset by lower costs and compensation from Siemens Gamesa.
Strong Growth: Second quarter revenue rose 32% to $53 million, with net income of $22 million after a loss last year, and adjusted EBITDA up 58% to $42 million.
Project Milestones: Enlight reached commercial operation on its first U.S. and first energy storage project, with 150 MW of new generation and 40 MWh of storage added in Q2.
U.S. Expansion: Major progress was made on large U.S. projects, including contracting and construction milestones at Atrisco, CO Bar, and a new Roadrunner project in Arizona.
Pricing Power: The company secured significant PPA price increases in the U.S. (up to 87%) and sees continued strong pricing power, especially as new market regulations and demand trends take hold.
Diversification: Management emphasized that as the portfolio grows, volatility from individual projects like Gecama in Spain will have less impact on overall results.
