Good morning and good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining us to review Enlight's Q4 and full year 2025 results and business performance. 2025 was another record year for Enlight. Across the U.S., Europe, and Israel, our teams delivered exceptional performance as developers, builders, owners, and operators of large-scale renewable energy and storage projects. Our results reflect best-in-class execution, disciplined capital allocation, and the strengths of our diversified multi-technology global platform. We are operating in a uniquely favorable environment for the energy sector. Structural tailwinds, reindustrialization, electrification, and rapidly rising power demand from data centers are driving unprecedented long-term growth across global electricity markets. These trends continue to reinforce the competitive edge of our technologies. Enlight's scale, portfolio depth, and proven execution position us to deliver fast, low cost, clean energy where it is needed most. The Q4 capped an exceptional year.
Revenue and income increased 46% year-over-year for both the quarter, at $152 million, and the full year at $582 million. Adjusted EBITDA in 2025 grew 51% to $438 million or 36% excluding the Sunlight sell-down. In Q4 alone, adjusted EBITDA accelerated to $99 million, up 51%. With this strong finish, we exceeded our full year revenue and EBITDA guidance by 4% and 7%, respectively. The Q4 also capped another record year of execution, during which we significantly expanded every component of our portfolio in advanced projects across all stages of development. Our total portfolio expanded 26% during 2025, growing by 7.8 factored gigawatts to reach 38 factored gigawatts.
The mature portfolio grew 33% to 11.4 factored gigawatts, and the operating portfolio increased 30% in the past 12 months. In Q4, two major U.S. projects, Quail Ranch and Roadrunner, achieved COD ahead of schedule, delivering over 800 factored megawatts combined at approximately 13% unlevered returns. These additions doubled our U.S. operating portfolio to 1.6 factored gigawatts, underscoring our ability to deliver large solar plus storage projects on time and with attractive economics. Our under construction portfolio, a significant contributor to our short and medium-term growth, has doubled over the past year. During the past 12 months, we started construction on projects totaling 2.6 factored gigawatts. This reflects our capability to systematically mitigate development risk and push projects towards maturity. The most significant addition during the quarter was CO Bar One and Two, with a capacity of almost 1 factored gigawatt.
CO Bar is a 2.4 factored gigawatt flagship project, our largest to date. It comprises of 5 stages and a total investment of $3 billion. It is expected to generate an unlevered return of more than 13% as a result of a well-executed connect and expand strategy. Another notable project that started construction earlier in the year was Snowflake A, also in the US, with a capacity of 1.1 factored gigawatt. We also added more than 2.5 factored gigawatt to our pre-construction portfolio over the past 12 months. The most notable additions were phases four and five in the CO Bar complex, with a combined capacity of 0.9 factored gigawatt. Advancing CO Bar is a major achievement for Enlight and for our US subsidiary, Clēnera, and Jared will elaborate more on this shortly.
Our U.S. platform continues to demonstrate best-in-class development expertise, providing strong visibility into our growth beyond 2028. 100% of pre-construction projects, 89% of advanced development, and 53% of development projects have completed their System Impact Study, a critical step for interconnection certainty. We continued to proactively manage tax incentive eligibility in the U.S. by safe harboring more than 4 factored gigawatts over the past quarter, leading to more than 13 factored gigawatts that were eligible for Tax Equity investments before 2026. We expect that all of our advanced development portfolio and up to 40% of our development portfolio will be safe harbored by June 2026. Energy storage remains a core pillar of our growth strategy.
In Europe, the rapid growth in renewable energy generation capacity has not been matched by a corresponding build-out of storage capacity, creating a meaningful shortage of battery energy storage systems and a significant opportunity for fast growth, supported by attractive returns. Our expansion momentum in Europe continued in the Q4 and into 2026 with the acquisition of Project Jupiter in Germany, a 2 GWh energy storage project paired with 150 MW of solar generation capacity, expected to generate unlevered return of about 15%. This acquisition follows the acquisitions in Germany and Poland we disclosed in the previous quarter and further strengthens our position in the largest and one of the fastest-growing renewable markets in Europe. Overall, during the year, we expanded our mature storage portfolio in Europe by 3.5 GWh.
We are highly committed to continuing our expansion in Europe, leveraging our expertise and execution capabilities to capture the significant opportunities in the market. Our mature storage portfolio globally reached 17.5 GWh, an increase of over 50% from the previous quarter and over 6 times its size just 3 years ago. This expansion is yet another testament to Enlight's entrepreneurial DNA and our ability to recognize opportunities and act decisively. Our mature storage portfolio represents annual run rate revenues of approximately $1 billion, nearly 50% of the revenues currently reflected in our overall mature portfolio, positioning Enlight to benefit from power price fluctuations, optimization management, capacity services, and ancillary grid services across markets. In Israel, we added meaningful storage capacity and continued to advance our solar-plus storage build-out, reinforcing local system flexibility and resilience.
Over the past 12 months, high voltage storage projects totaling 1.35 GWh progressed from the advanced development portfolio to pre-construction. In addition, during the quarter, we signed an agreement with Mivne, a leading Israeli real estate firm with more than 550 assets nationwide, to supply electricity for approximately $500 million over 15 years, and to form a partnership which will develop energy storage facilities at Mihne properties across the country. The agreement follows dozens of similar distributed storage agreements signed over the past 12 months with leading real estate companies and other organizations. We are also expanding our agrivoltaic presence in Israel, with 49 deals signed only in the past 12 months... reflecting a future solar generation capacity of approximately 2 factored gigawatts and growing synergies between solar and agriculture.
As I mentioned earlier, we see a step change in power demand from AI and data centers. Industry outlooks indicate U.S. data center electricity consumption could roughly triple by the end of the decade. This demand must be met with scalable, cost-effective, and clean energy, precisely where solar plus storage delivers superior levelized cost of electricity and time-shifting capability. Our development capabilities position Enlight to be a partner of choice for large utilities and corporates as this build-out accelerates. We will share additional details on our strategy and plans to capture the data center opportunity at our upcoming virtual investor event on March 9. Looking forward, our strategy remains consistent and ambitious to triple the size of the business every three years by advancing high-quality projects through a de-risk development funnel, while maintaining discipline on returns and capital structure.
The continued growth of our operating portfolio and cash flow generation, combined with our differentiated global access to capital and execution capabilities, enable us to further accelerate investment in Enlight's long-term growth. Commensurate to this, I'm excited to share that 2026 will be a record year of construction for Enlight, with the expected beginning of construction of 3-4 factored gigawatts, resulting in a record level of approximately 7 factored gigawatts that will be under construction during the year. In fact, almost all of our current mature portfolio will be either income generating or under construction during 2026. By the end of 2026, we expect to add about 1.1 factored gigawatts to our operational capacity, primarily in the Q4 of the year.
That will contribute annual run rate revenue and income of $137 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $109 million. By year-end, 2028, we expect to achieve 12-13 factored gigawatts of operating capacity, predicted to generate annual run rate revenue and income in the range of $2.1 billion-$2.3 billion. Over 11 factored gigawatts out of this capacity is in our mature portfolio, underscoring the significant progress we made this year in increasing the visibility and certainty of our pipeline. Compared to our estimates in the previous quarter, 2028 revenue and income annual run rate increased by approximately $150 million, and the planned capacity expanded by one factored gigawatt at the low end.
The unlevered return on investment reflected in our under construction and pre-construction projects is expected to range from 12% = 13%, up from the 11%-12% range we referenced last quarter, highlighting our continued focus on disciplined, accretive growth. We now expect to deliver our return on equity of more than 18%. Before I hand over the floor to Jared, I would like to reiterate the key takeaways. We delivered a strong finish to 2025, exceeding guidance by growing revenues and EBITDA meaningfully, and continued to rapidly expand and de-risk our pipeline. We are positioned for a record construction year in 2026 and remain on track to reach 12-13 factored gigawatt of operating capacity by 2028 at attractive returns, supported mainly by our current mature portfolio and underpinned by disciplined returns.
With that, I will hand the call over to Jared.
Thank you, Adi. In 2025, we continued to execute our growth strategy in the US. We doubled our operational capacity to 1.6 factored gigawatts, and we have close to 5 factored gigawatts of additional projects under construction or in pre-construction, expected to come online by the end of 2028. In fact, a recent analysis by S&P placed us in the top 10 solar companies in the United States. In the Q4 of 2025, we commissioned two new co-located PV and battery facilities and have fully mobilized construction on three more. The Roadrunner Solar and Storage Facility in Southeast Arizona has been successfully commissioned. This facility has a generation capacity of 290 MGW and energy storage of 940 MGWh .
We achieved an early COD on the PV portion of the project, bringing in earlier than expected revenues for the quarter. We also achieved COD on our Quail Ranch Solar and Storage Facility. This includes the 128 MW PV site and 400 MWh battery storage. These projects bring our operational portfolio in the U.S. to 888 MW of generation and 2,540 MWh of energy storage. Combined, these facilities are delivering enough energy to the grid to power over 220,000 American homes. We are in full construction on the first phases of two mega projects in the American Southwest, the Snowflake and CO Bar complexes. First, on the CO Bar Complex, I am excited to announce that we have received full approval for the 1 GW interconnection for the facility.
The CO Bar project is a special project and indicative of what the Clēnera team can accomplish through their development, expertise, tenacity, and grit. The executed LGIA provides certainty on the interconnection and enables a full construction mobilization. The construction team is mobilized on the first two phases of the project, CO Bar One and CO Bar Two. CO Bar One includes 254 MGW of PV generation and 824 MGWh of battery storage, with commercial operations scheduled for the second half of 2027. CO Bar Two, a 480-MGW PV project, anticipates commercial operations in the first half of 2028. We have also signed energy storage agreements with Salt River Project for the storage phases CO Bar Four and Five.
With these energy storage agreements in place, the entire 1,211 MW of solar and 4,000 MWh of battery, the CO Bar Complex is fully subscribed. Full mobilization of the CO Bar Three, Four, and Five projects, totaling 473 MW of PV and 3,176 MWh of BESS, is targeted over the next 6 to 12 months, with commercial operation anticipated between the second half of 2027 to the first half of 2028. Moving on, Phase 1 of the Snowflake Complex, Snowflake A, includes 595 MW of PV and 1,900 MWh of energy storage. The complex is located in Northeast Arizona, near the city of Holbrook. More than 300 skilled workers are mobilized on-site, advancing construction of the solar, battery, substation, and transmission infrastructure.
They have completed site mass grading, installed about 1/2 of the PV and BESS piles, and over a third of the racking. The civil work for the substation and energy storage facility is complete, and we will be receiving shipments of batteries soon. Once operational, the two complexes will generate enough clean energy to power over 325,000 Arizona homes. These mega projects exemplify our belief that utility-scale solar can deliver clean, reliable energy while advancing responsible land stewardship. Early construction at CO Bar One and Two removed hundreds of acres of invasive vegetation to be restored with native grasses, forbs, and flowers to enhance biodiversity. We are also funding a multiyear study to monitor large mammal migration around the complex, demonstrating the multidimensional opportunities our projects create in Arizona. We have also started construction at our Crimson Orchard project in Elmore County, Idaho.
This project includes 120 MW of PV generation and 400 MWh of energy storage. We expect it to be commissioned in the first half of next year. Once it is online, it will generate enough energy to power over 20,000 Idaho homes. The final project under construction is Country Acres, a 403-MW solar and 688 MWh battery project near Sacramento. The mobilized construction crew is similar in size to Snowflake A, with over 300 workers on-site. They have completed site mass grading and installed nearly all PV and BESS piles, along with half of the PV racking and a third of the modules. The site substation is about two-thirds complete. The project remains scheduled for commercial operations by year-end.
Briefly reflecting on 2025, I want to thank everyone at Enlight and Clēnera, as well as our customers, suppliers, and contractors for their dedication and excellence throughout the year. We have once again demonstrated strong execution, reinforcing the solid fundamentals of our energy market as utility and large load customers continue to seek new sources of generation. Global and US power demand is expected to grow by more than 80% between 2025 and 2028, and Clēnera and Enlight are well positioned with the financial strength, operational excellence, and mature projects to capitalize on this growth. In 2026, we will continue to build on this success and execute our US growth strategy. I'll now turn the phone over to Nir.
Thank you, Jared. The Q4 of 2025 has been a strong quarter for Enlight, mainly resulting from the operation of new projects in the U.S. as we continue to materialize our growth plan. In the Q4 of 2025, the company's total revenues and income increased to $152 million, up from $104 million last year, a growth rate of 46% year-over-year. This was composed of revenues from the sale of electricity, which amounted to $124 million, an increase of $31 million from the same period of 2024, as well as a recognition of $28 million in income from tax benefit, an increase of $17 million from Q4 2024. The growth in revenue from the sale of electricity is mainly attributed to newly operational project, which contributed a total of $18 million to the growth in revenue.
This project includes Atrisco in New Mexico, which started commercial operation in December 2024 and contributed about $11 million to sales of electricity, as well as Quail Ranch in New Mexico and Roadrunner in Arizona, which started commercial operation towards the end of 2025 and contributed $2 million in the sale of electricity. Additionally, Project Pupin in Serbia started commercial operation towards the end of 2024 and contributed $5 million to the increase in sale of electricity compared to Q4 2024. Additional notable items include an increase of $7 million in the sale of electricity in Israel, attributed to electricity trade activity, and contribution of $7 million from exchange rate fluctuation, mainly the depreciation of the US dollar compared to the Israeli shekel and the euro.
The increase in income from tax benefit is mostly attributed to Atrisco, which contributed $11 million, of which $3 million is attributed to the eligibility for domestic content. Roadrunner and Quail Ranch contributed an aggregate amount of $6 million to income from tax benefit. Revenue and income were distributed between Mena, Europe and the US, with 32% from Israel, 37% from Europe and 31% from the US. The company's Adjusted EBITDA grew by 51% to $99 million, compared to $65 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in revenue was offset by an additional $12 million in cost of sales linked to new projects, while SG&A and project development expenses rose by $3 million. Q4 net income increased by $13 million compared to Q4 2024, amounted to $21 million.
An increase of $34 million in EBITDA was partially offset by an increase of $12 million in depreciation and amortization, attributed to the start of operation of new projects, as well as share-based compensation. Additionally, net financial expenses increased by $4 million and tax expenses increased by $7 million. Enlight secured a significant amount of new funding during 2025. At the project level, we secured $2.9 billion of project finance, as well as tax equity in the amount of $470 million, and the mezzanine loan amounted to $350 million. At the corporate level, we raised $300 million in equity, $245 million in debenture and $50 million in an asset sale. Altogether, since the beginning of 2025, Enlight raised $4.3 billion, providing the financial underpinning for our ambitious expansion plans, with particular focus on the U.S.
In addition to these funds, we have $525 million of credit facility at several banks, of which $360 million was available for use at the balance sheet date. In addition, we have approximately $1.5 billion in LC and surety bond facility, supporting our global expansion, of which $790 million were available for use at the end of the quarter. This further increased our financial flexibility as well continue to deliver on our growth strategy. Moving to 2026 guidance, we expect revenue and income between $755 million and $785 million, and Adjusted EBITDA between $545 million and $565 million, reflecting annual growth of 32% and 27% at the midpoint, respectively, compared to 2025 results.
Our revenues and income guidance for 2026 include recognition of an estimated $160 million-$180 million in income from U.S. tax benefit. 90% of 2026 generation output is expected to be sold at fixed prices, either through PPA or hedging. Of our total forecasted revenues and income, 39% are expected to be denominated in U.S. dollars, including tax incentives, 34% in Israeli shekel and 27% in euros. I will now turn the call over to the operator for questions.
Thank you. To ask a question, you will need to press star one and one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one and one again. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Thank you. We will now go to our first question. One moment, please. And your first question today comes from the line of Justin Clare from Roth Capital Partners. Please go ahead.
Hi, thanks for taking the question here. I first wanted to just start out, you had increased your expected annualized revenue and income run rate for 2028 to $2.1 billion-$2.3 billion, up from the $1.9 billion-$2.2 billion. Just wondering if you could walk through the drivers of the increase in that outlook, how much of that was attributable to the acquisition of the Project Jupiter in Germany? And then just more broadly, how should we think about the potential role of acquisitions in the growth strategy here, and whether there could be additional opportunities to accelerate the 2028 growth or beyond, as a result of M&A?
Thanks. Thank you for the question. The acquisition of the Project Jupiter project contributed in and of itself $150 million to the overall sum of the 2028 run rate revenues. In addition to that, CO Bar four and five were moved from the—if you, if you note the little dotted line on the 2028 annual revenue rates, it moved up from the advanced development into the pre-construction. So it moved into the 2.0 number, which it does not extend the top range, but it does increase the level of certainty that it is now in the mature portfolio.... And to just, Justin, just to also pick up on the second part of your question.
We are always looking at opportunities also for acquisitions of projects and pipelines, where it makes sense. Specifically in the case of the storage markets in Europe, and specifically Project Jupiter in Germany, it is an opportunity to enter the market relatively quickly. That would be a reason why we would go for an acquisition of a project that is relatively mature. We are still a greenfield developer, but we do have the flexibility to acquire projects when we want to come into the market early. And you can see about the Jupiter project that there's still it does not come at the expense of the project returns. As we mentioned, in the presentation deck, it is 15% unlevered project returns.
Even when we acquire projects that are relatively mature, it does not come at the expense of the returns.
Okay, got it. Sounds good. And then just maybe shifting over to the safe harbor. You had indicated, I think 13.2 factored gigawatts have currently been safe harbored, I think 4.3 over the last three months. So just at this point, you know, can you talk about the potential to safe harbor additional capacity? Is there a possibility to get beyond the 14-17 factored gigawatts targeted range? And just wondering if you'd speak to any constraints. Are you limited more by just the pipeline of projects that you have, or are there any limitations in equipment access or interconnection progress, or other factors?
I will, I will answer the question, and then I will also refer it onwards to Jared. I will just answer that we do plan to still safe harbor 0.5-3.5 factored gigawatts in this first half of 2026. And after that, of course, the safe harboring of PV solar projects will be capped, but the safe harboring of energy storage projects is still available for three more years. So in that sense, we will be continuing to safe harbor specifically BESS, so battery energy storage projects. But I will hand it over for Jared to complement my explanation.
Yeah. Thanks, Adi. We stand behind the 14-17 factored gigawatt range of Safe Harbor. As Adi mentioned, there are additional projects that we're looking at for 2026, that will be able to have full tax credits through 2030. The 14-17 factored gigawatt range is something that we're actually very proud of. It’s been a significant undertaking from the team. As you all know, we include physical work of a significant nature, both offsite and onsite for our projects. And really, this gives us a very broad base to be able to pull from over the next four years as we're out there constructing and finishing our projects over the next four years.
Okay, great. Thanks very much, and congrats on the great result here.
Thank you.
Thank you. We will now go to our next question. The next question comes from the line of Mark Strouse from JP Morgan. Please go ahead.
Yes, good afternoon, team. Thank you very much for taking our questions.
Hello, Mark.
a follow-up. Hi. Hi there. Just a follow-up on Justin's question there. Just kind of given the outperformance in the stock that you've seen over the last several months, understand that you're always looking at potential project acquisitions, but just kind of curious how to think about the potential for kind of platform acquisitions. Are there other companies that you could potentially creatively acquire, either to expand your capabilities, expand your geographic reach? Any comment there would be great. Thank you.
Thanks. Thank you for the question. You know, we're in a, I, I would say, potentially enviable position. We do have the flexibility and the ability to raise significant amounts of funds. We're liquid. We have various sources, including some that you've seen, I mean, that our projects are fully funded through 2028. So we're always looking at opportunities to acquire not only projects and platforms of projects, but also potentially, if we need those missing capabilities, also potentially more than that. And we will act accordingly in the various markets where we are operating, which is the U.S., Europe and Middle East, North Africa, and approach these kinds of opportunities with great care for our overall growth trajectory and for the shareholder value.
Great. Thank you.
Thank you. We will now go to the next question. Your next question today comes from the line of Maheep Mandloi from Mizuho. Please go ahead.
Hey, thanks for taking the questions, and congratulations on the quarter and the guidance here. I'm just going back to the question on Safe Harbor. With the new rules, the guidance which came out last week, has that been more or less in line with expectations, or does that change anything for you for Safe Harbor in the next three months here?
... Jared, do you want to take this one? I think it's regarding FIOC.
Yeah, I can take it, Adi. Thank you. Just to confirm, this is the recent publication that was provided on FIOC did provide some clarifications regarding population methodology and the share of equipment originated from FIOC countries. They are in line with our previous guidelines and our estimates, and they help reduce uncertainty somewhat. The guidelines define the calculations, but there's still more information that we expect to come, and so we do not expect any impact on our current estimations on our mature portfolio, as well as any projects, obviously, that we safe harbored already in 2025. As you know, those projects are not subject to FIOC. We don't expect a significant impact on any projects that we will safe harbor through the middle of this year.
Really, we do expect some additional guidance on FIOC.
Got it. Got it. And, you guys kind of talked about almost $1 billion of cash, I think, between the whole co and the subsidiaries and unrestricted restricted cash. So the question is more on the capital plan for the equity needs. Does the cash on hand fund your projects through 2028, or how should we think about equity needs through 2028 and potentially even post-2028 as well?
I'm gonna ask our Chief Corporate Development Officer, Itay Benayan, to take the question.
Maheep, how are you? So yes, we have all of the available sources in our hands to fund the growth that we're presenting through the end of 2028. So if you've seen the presentation, we're showing that we have significant amount of projects already under construction as part of the mature portfolio, and these were already funded, obviously, and a significant portion that we're expecting to start construction this year. So basically, almost all of our mature portfolio will be either generating or under construction this year, and all of the sources needed to take us through the business plan towards the end of 2028 are already available.
On the corporate-
On the corporate level, obviously. Some of the projects will need to do the project level financing, which is a part of the ordinary course of doing business, but the corporate side, though, we're fully funded.
Got it. I appreciate that. Thank you.
Thank you. As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one and one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. That is star one and one to ask a question. Thank you. We will now go to our next question. The next question today comes from the line of Mike McNulty from Deutsche Bank. Please go ahead.
Hey, thanks for taking my question, and congrats on the quarter. This is Mike McNulty on for Corinne Blanchard. My first question relates to partial asset sales. Obviously, you did that last year with the Sunlight cluster. Can you talk about your expectations of partial asset sales into 2026, if anything is embedded in guidance, and then what we would need to see for that to happen?
Thank you for the question, Mike. I will refer this one to our Chief Corporate Development Officer, Itay Benayan.
Hey, Mike. So we, we've mentioned it several times before. It is part of our strategy to contemplate minority sales or sell downs of some of our projects where it makes sense and where it's accretive to the company. We have a lot of flexibility on our sources. So it did contribute to the numbers in 2025, and we don't see it as a one-time event. We think it will be part of the ordinary course of doing business. And also, when you can see on the roadmap to 2028, we are gradually increasing the weighted average of our holding in our portfolio. We're going all the way to 91%, so there is a lot of meat on the bone when...
It's when it will make sense, we might do several, like, additional transactions like the one we did in Israel in 2025.
Okay. Thank you very much. That's helpful. And then my second question is, a lot of the expansion in 2026 is weighted towards the latter half, I believe, Q4. So with your overall guidance, can you talk about the key drivers of the growth within your guidance, given a lot of the capacity is weighted towards the back half?
Thank you for the question again, Mike. So, the US projects that we just connected in Q4 of 2025, Quail Ranch and Roadrunner, are gonna have their first full year of revenues in 2026. So, and as you stated correctly, the projects we're connecting in 2026 will mostly-- I mean, they will have their full year of revenues in 2027. Thankfully, we are, I mean, well diversified across different geographies, different projects, you know, different technologies. And so in addition to the ones I just mentioned in the US, there's also a very significant projects in Israel that are also have also been connected in 2025 and will have their first year of full revenues, project called Bal-On, which is a floating PV plus storage.
So, we have projects in Europe that we're also working on that will be connected earlier in the year. So overall, that is what contributing to the growth in revenues and EBITDA in 2026.
Great, thanks again, and congrats on the quarter.
Thank you.
Thank you. There are no further questions. I will now hand the call back to Adi for closing remarks.
We would like to thank you very much for supporting us, for dialing into this call, for asking questions. We highly appreciate the engagement with all of you, and we look forward to continuing to deliver excellent results, and to see you in the next quarter. Thank you.
Thank you. This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
