## Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 32,890 characters.

*The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2023 Annual Report. In addition to historical data, this discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and prospects based on current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to those differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including those set forth in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2023 Annual Report. Additionally, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this section to “we,” “our,” “us,” “the Company” or other similar terms refer to the business and operations of Tigo Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries prior to the Business Combination (“Legacy Tigo”) and Tigo Energy Inc. following the consummation of the Business Combination. References to “ROCG” refer to Roth CH Acquisition IV Co. prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.*

### Overview

Our mission is to deliver smart systems solutions, combining hardware and software, which enhance safety, increase energy yield, and lower operating costs of residential, commercial, and utility-scale solar systems. We believe we are a worldwide leader in the development and delivery of products and solutions that are flexible and dependable, increase the energy generation of solar energy systems and address the need for change. We primarily offer products and services through distributors and solar installers. We have a worldwide footprint with product installations in over 100 countries and on all seven continents.

### Key Factors that May Influence Future Results of Operations

Our financial results of operations may not be comparable from period to period due to several factors. Key factors affecting our results of operations are summarized below.

*Demand for Products.* The demand for our products in Europe and the United States experienced a notable slowdown beginning in the second quarter in 2023 and continued into the first half of 2024. In Europe, the slowdown was primarily due to elevated inventory levels with distributors and an overall channel inventory correction as they responded to a slower demand environment. Additionally, there has been uncertainty surrounding the net energy metering policies and solar export penalties in the European markets, such as Germany, Belgium, Italy and the United Kingdom, which also contributed to the overall slowdown in demand in Europe. In the United States, the slowdown was primarily attributable due to higher interest rates than recent prior periods and the transition from the second iteration of net metering (“NEM 2.0”) to the third iteration of net metering (“NEM 3.0”) in California. The factors noted above have led to elevated inventory levels with distributors and installers in both regions. Given these factors, revenues have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected in 2024.

In response to the factors noted above, we reduced staffing levels across all geographies in December 2023 by approximately 15%, and in April 2024 by approximately 10%. As a result, we expect to reduce cash expenditures associated with the reduction of personnel costs by approximately $7.3 million in 2024.

*Unfavorable Macroeconomic and Market Conditions.* The global macroeconomic and market uncertainty, including higher interest rates and inflation, has caused disruptions in financial markets and may continue to have an adverse effect on the U.S. and world economies. Since the second quarter of 2023, we have experienced a significant number of customer requests to delay purchase order deliveries and a smaller number of purchase order cancellations and returns. Other customers may decide to delay purchasing our products and services or not purchase at all. A tighter credit market for consumer and business spending could, in turn, adversely affect spending levels of installers and end users and lead to increased price competition for our products. Reductions in customer spending in response to unfavorable or uncertain macroeconomic and market conditions, globally or in a particular region where we operate, have adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

*Managing Supply Chain.* We rely on contract manufacturers and suppliers to produce our components. Our ability to grow depends, in part, on the ability of our contract manufacturers and suppliers to provide high quality services and deliver components and finished products on time and at reasonable costs. While we have diversified our supply chain, some of our suppliers and contract manufacturers are sole-source suppliers. Our concentration of suppliers could lead to supply shortages, long lead times for components and supply changes. A significant portion of our supply chain originates in Thailand and China. In the event we are unable to mitigate the impact of delays and/or price increases in raw materials, electronic components and freight, it could delay the manufacturing and delivery of our products, which would adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations, including revenue and gross margin. In addition, in a slowing economic environment, our inventory levels may continue to increase due to existing purchase commitments and our ability to negotiate volume pricing discounts may be impaired.

*Expansion of Sales with Existing Customers and Adding New Customers.* Our future revenue growth is, in part, dependent on our ability to expand product offerings and services in the U.S. residential market. In our North American market, revenue is generally generated from our product offerings and services in the commercial and industrial markets. In order to continue revenue growth, we plan to expand our presence in the residential market through offerings with residential solar providers. We also expect to continue to evaluate and invest in new market opportunities internationally. We believe that our entry into new markets will continue to facilitate revenue growth and customer diversification. We primarily acquire new customers through collaboration with our industry partners and distributors. While we expect that a substantial portion of our future revenues in the near-term will be generated from our existing customers, we expect to invest in our sales and marketing to broaden reach with new residential customers in the U.S. and EMEA.

*Expansion of New Products and Services.* We have made substantial investments in research and development and sales and marketing to achieve a leading position in our market and revenue growth. While a majority of our revenue is generated from the sale of our MLPE products, we intend to continue the development and promotion of our GO Energy Storage Systems (“GO ESS”) and Predict+ product and service lines.

### Key Operating and Financial Metrics

We regularly review a number of metrics, including the following key operating and financial metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare financial projections and make strategic decisions. We believe the operating and financial metrics presented are useful in evaluating our operating performance, as they are similar to measures used by our public competitors and are regularly used by securities analysts, institutional investors, and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects.

The following table sets forth these metrics for the periods presented:

*(in thousands, except percentages)*

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net revenue | $12,701 | $68,826 | $22,503 | $118,884 |
| Gross profit | $3,867 | $25,906 | $6,633 | $44,275 |
| Gross margin | 30.4% | 37.6% | 29.5% | 37.2% |
| Operating (loss) income | $(8,403) | $8,665 | $(17,491) | $16,485 |
| Net loss | $(11,321) | $(22,176) | $(22,827) | $(15,266) |

#### Gross Profit and Gross Margin

We define gross profit as total net revenue less cost of revenue, and define gross margin, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of gross profit to revenue. Gross profit and margin can be used to understand our financial performance and efficiency and allow investors to evaluate its pricing strategy and compare it against competitors. We use these metrics to make strategic decisions identifying areas for improvement, set targets for future performance and make informed decisions about how to allocate resources going forward.

### Key Components and Comparison of Results of Operations

### Net Revenue

*(in thousands, except percentages)*

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net revenue | $12,701 | $68,826 | $(56,125) | (81.5)% | $22,503 | $118,884 | $(96,381) | (81.1)% |

#### Three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Net revenue decreased by $56.1 million or 81.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and by $96.4 million or 81.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods in 2023. The decreases are primarily due to the solar industry experiencing a broad-based slowdown in both the U.S. and European markets, which resulted in elevated inventory with distributors and installers, and as a result the overall demand for our products and services decreased as distributors and installers responded to this slower demand environment. In the Americas region, this slowdown was primarily the result of higher interest rates and the transition from NEM 2.0 to NEM 3.0 in California. In the EMEA region, this slowdown was primarily the result of a decrease in customer purchases in Europe after a surge of sales were realized in 2022 and going into the first half of 2023 due to higher energy prices in Europe related to the onset of the armed conflict in Ukraine in 2022, and overall channel inventory correction.

*(in thousands, except percentages)*

#### Three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

- EMEA - Net revenue for the EMEA region decreased by $48.1 million or 87.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and by $82.6 million or 86.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods in 2023. The decreases are primarily due to a slowdown in demand in the region due to elevated inventory levels at distributors and installers.
- Americas - Net revenue for the Americas region decreased by $8.3 million or 74.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and by $12.6 million or 69.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods in 2023. The decreases are primarily due to demand for our solutions slowing as a result of higher interest rates impacting customers’ investment decisions and the transition from NEM 2.0 to NEM 3.0 in California.
- APAC - Net revenue for the APAC region increased by $0.3 million or 11.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and decreased by $1.2 million or 22.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods in 2023. Net revenue remained consistent for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease in net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily driven by a 66.1% decline in sales in China.

### Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

*(in thousands, except percentages)*

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  |

#### Three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Cost of revenue decreased by $34.1 million or 79.4% and gross profit decreased by $22.0 million or 85.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. Cost of revenues decreased by $58.7 million or 78.7% and gross profit decreased by $37.6 million or 85.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. The decreases are primarily due to an 81.5% and 81.1% decline in net revenues for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023.

Gross margin decreased by 7.2 percentage points for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and by 7.7 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods in 2023. The decreases are primarily due both to lower sales volume due to the unfavorable macroeconomic and market conditions noted above and sales promotions and discounts related to the Company’s GO ESS product line.

### Research and Development

*(in thousands, except percentages)*

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  |

#### Three months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Research and development expense remained consistent for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. Research and development expense as percentage of net revenue increased to 21.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 3.5% for the same period in 2023 which is primarily due to a decrease in net revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.

#### Six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Research and development expense increased by $0.5 million or 11.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in consulting and facility expenses. Research and development expense as percentage of net revenue increased to 23.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 3.9% for the same period in 2023 which is primarily due to a decrease in net revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.

The amount of research and development expenses may fluctuate from period to period due to differing levels and stages of development activity.

#### Three months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

General and administrative expense decreased by $4.1 million or 42.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease is primarily related to legal expense associated with the Business Combination that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

#### Six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

General and administrative expense decreased by $2.9 million or 22.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

#### Three months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Change in fair value of preferred stock warrant and contingent shares liability decreased by $2.6 million or 98.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in the fair value of the Series C convertible preferred stock and contingent shares related to the fSight acquisition. The Series C convertible preferred stock was converted to shares of Common Stock on May 23, 2023, as part of the Business Combination. See Note 3, “Merger with Roth CH Acquisition IV Co.,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

The change in fair value of derivative liability for the three months ended June 30, 2023, is related to the Convertible Promissory Note which contained conversion options that met the requirements for separate accounting and was accounted for as a convertible note derivative liability. The derivative instrument was recorded at fair value upon recognition on the Merger Date and was subject to remeasurement at the end of the reporting period. On September 24, 2023, we entered into the Convertible Note Amendment (as defined above) with L1 Energy (as defined above) to modify the conversion terms of the Convertible Promissory Note and, as a result of such amendment, the conversion options no longer meet the requirements to be bifurcated in accordance with *ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging*. See Note 9, “Long-Term Debt,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Interest expense increased by $1.3 million or 80.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. This increase is primarily due to the timing of the amortization of the debt discount of $23.5 million that was recorded upon the bifurcation of the conversion options at the time of the Business Combination. Please see Note 9, “Long-Term Debt,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the conversion options.

Other income, net decreased $0.7 million or 99.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. This is primarily due to a decrease in interest income from the Company’s marketable securities, as the underlying asset base generating interest income decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.

#### Six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Change in fair value of preferred stock warrant and contingent shares liability decreased by $3.3 million or 105.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in mark-to-market expense associated with the contingent shares related to the fSight acquisition.

The change in fair value of derivative liability for the six months ended June 30, 2023, is related to the Convertible Promissory Note which contained conversion options that met the requirements for separate accounting and was accounted for as a convertible note derivative liability. The derivative instrument was recorded at fair value upon recognition on the Merger Date and was subject to remeasurement at the end of the reporting period. On September 24, 2023, we entered into the Convertible Note Amendment (as defined above) with L1 Energy (as defined above) to modify the conversion terms of the Convertible Promissory Note and, as a result of such amendment, the conversion options no longer meet the requirements to be bifurcated in accordance with *ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging*. See Note 9, “Long-Term Debt,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

The loss on debt extinguishment for the six months ended June 30, 2023, is primarily related to the repayment of our Series 2022-1 Notes.

Interest expense increased by $3.3 million or 140.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. This increase is primarily due to the timing of the amortization of the debt discount of $23.5 million that was recorded upon the bifurcation of the conversion options at the time of the Business Combination. Please see Note 9, “Long-Term Debt,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the conversion options.

Other income, net decreased $1.0 million or 82.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. This is primarily due to a decrease in interest income from the Company’s marketable securities, as the underlying asset base generating interest income decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.

### Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

*(in thousands, except percentages)*

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 | Change in $% |  |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Income tax expense (benefit) | $16 | $(10,933) | $10,949 | (100.1)% | $16 | $(10,933) | $10,949 | (100.1)% |

#### Three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023

Income taxes increased $10.9 million to an income tax expense of $16,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to an income tax benefit of $10.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to the release of the valuation allowance against the Company’s U.S. federal net deferred taxes during the second quarter of 2023. Please see Note 15, “Income Taxes,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the valuation allowance release during the second quarter of 2023.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities. As of June 30, 2024, the Company held $20.4 million in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities which were held primarily for working capital purposes. Our working capital, which we define as current assets less current liabilities, decreased by $10.7 million to $67.6 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $78.3 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease in working capital during this period is primarily attributable to lower marketable securities and inventory balances and is partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Revenues stabilized on a sequential quarter basis in both the first and second quarters of 2024 but declined on a year over year basis. While we have been actively working on reducing our inventory levels, these efforts will depend on our ability to increase future quarterly revenues, maintain a minimal level of inventory purchases with suppliers, and our ability to recover the book value of inventory. In the first half of 2024, we reduced our inventory levels by $10.1 million from December 31, 2023, and expect lower inventory levels and positive working capital cash conversion throughout the remainder of 2024. We believe that our cash position is sufficient to meet our capital and liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months from the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

In the future, our ability to sustain operations and invest in new technologies may necessitate seeking additional equity or debt financing. Our capital needs will be influenced by several factors, including our revenue growth rate, the success of our future product development and capital investments, and the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In addition, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs as a result of operating as a public company. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we cannot be certain that any additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are required but unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows to sustain or expand our business, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.

### Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:

*(in thousands)*

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | 2023 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Net cash used in operating activities | $(12,872) | $(4,934) |
| Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities | 23,350 | (52,124) |
| Net cash provided by financing activities | 260 | 31,066 |
| Net increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $10,738 | $(25,992) |

Management closely monitors expenditures and is focused on obtaining new customers and continuing to develop our products and services. Cash from operations and our liquidity could also be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic concerns related to interest rates, inflation or the supply chain, including timing of cash collections from customers and other risks which are detailed in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2023 Annual Report.

#### Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

Operating cash flows consists primarily of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash used in operating activities increased by $7.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to an increased net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, which is a result of the negative macroeconomic factors that are noted above, in addition to an increase in non-cash items during the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to the change in fair value of the derivative liability, contingent shares liability and preferred stock warrants.

The increase in net cash used in operating activities was partially offset by increases in non-cash items during the six months ended June 30, 2024, related to stock-based compensation and accretion of interest expense, in addition to the deferred tax benefit that was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

#### Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which is primarily attributable to the sale and maturities of marketable securities. Net cash used in investing activities was $52.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which is primarily attributable to the purchase of marketable securities and property and equipment.

#### Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $30.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company received proceeds of $0.3 million from the exercise of stock options by employees. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company received proceeds of $50.0 million from the Convertible Promissory Note and proceeds of $2.2 million from the Business Combination, which was partially offset by the $20.8 million repayment of the Series 2022-1 Notes.

### Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations primarily consist of our Convertible Promissory Note, obligations under operating leases and inventory component purchases. As of June 30, 2024, there have been no material changes from our disclosure in our 2023 Annual Report. For more information on our future minimum operating leases, see Note 13, “Leases” and for more information on our Convertible Promissory Notes and other related debt, see Note 9, “Long-Term Debt,” of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

## Market risk

As filed, 211 characters.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company is not required to provide the information required under this item.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 3,223 characters.

### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls were effective as of June 30, 2024.

### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

### Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within a company are detected. The inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

## Risk factors

As filed, 1,839 characters.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s 2023 Annual Report, and the other reports that we have filed with the SEC. Any of the risks discussed in such reports, as well as additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition or prospects. During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes in our risk factors as previously disclosed except the following:

***Future elections and political uncertainty may have an adverse impact on business.***

As discussed in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report, we are subject to various legal, compliance and regulatory risks in numerous jurisdictions throughout the world. These risks include the availability of economic incentives in certain geographic regions in which the Company operates. Future elections in various countries, including the United States and throughout Europe, may further increase these risks. The elections could result in shifts in domestic, foreign, and economic policy approaches, and uncertainty with respect to, regulation and legislation directly affecting the Company and our business environment, including tax incentives or potential tariffs that could directly affect the solar industry. Actions taken by new administrations may have an adverse impact on our industry and business or may indirectly affect us because of adverse impacts on our customers, suppliers and manufacturers, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth.
