Altus Power, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

First Quarter Highlights

  • Operating revenues of $19.2 million for first quarter 2022, an increase of 54% over first quarter 2021
  • First quarter 2022 GAAP net income of $60.1 million, as compared to first quarter 2021 net income of $0.3 million driven by a $64.8 million non-cash gain from fair value remeasurement of both warrants and alignment shares
  • First quarter 2022 adjusted EBITDA* of $8.8 million, an increase of 38% over first quarter 2021
  • Unrestricted cash balance of $318.2 million as of March 31, 2022
  • Reaffirmed full year 2022 adjusted EBITDA* guidance of $57-63 million
  • Announced partnership with Trammell Crow for installation of up to 300 MW of solar generation assets

Altus Power, Inc. (NYSE: AMPS) (“Altus Power” or the “Company”), a leading clean electrification company, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2022.

“We believe our first quarter results position us well to achieve our 2022 financial projections as we focus on driving growth from our over one gigawatt pipeline of opportunities," said Gregg Felton, Co-CEO of Altus Power. "We are continuing to experience a significant level of customer engagement and we believe the substantial upward pressure on utility rates from a variety of factors serves to enhance the economic incentive to install solar, growing our addressable market further.”

Co-CEO Lars Norell added, “Altus Power’s agreement to install up to 300 megawatts of solar power generation assets in partnership with Trammell Crow demonstrated new potential for our renewable solutions. Clean electrification can be included into building plans from the earliest stages of design and construction, which we believe not only optimizes design but also increases sustainability for tenants out of the gate.”

First Quarter Financial Results

Operating revenues during the first quarter of 2022 totaled $19.2 million, compared to $12.5 million during the same period of 2021, an increase of 54%. The increase reflects the growth of megawatts installed over the past twelve months. First quarter 2022 GAAP net income totaled $60.1 million, which was driven by a $64.8 million non-cash gain from remeasurement of both warrants and alignment shares, compared to net income of $0.3 million for the same period last year. This benefit from remeasurement is non-cash and is driven by a lower Altus Power common share price between December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022, and is subject to remeasurement based on our share price at the end of each quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA* during the first quarter of 2022 was $8.8 million, compared to $6.3 million for the first quarter of 2021, a 38% increase. The quarter over quarter growth in adjusted EBITDA* is primarily the result of increased revenue from additional solar energy facilities, offset by an increase in our general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin* during the first quarter was 46%, compared to 51% in the first quarter of 2021, largely driven by an increase in general and administrative expenses to support future growth.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Altus Power ended the first quarter of 2022 with $318.2 million in unrestricted cash, and $543.1 million of total debt, resulting in net debt of $224.9 million. The Company expects to fund its operations using available cash, additional borrowings under debt facilities and third-party tax equity financing, for the foreseeable future.

2022 Guidance

Altus Power reaffirms its 2022 adjusted EBITDA* guidance range of $57-63 million, as well as guidance for 2022 adjusted EBITDA margin* in the mid-50% range. First quarter is historically the most impacted by shorter daylight hours and snow conditions experienced by our portfolio, particularly given our exposure to northeastern states. This seasonality historically produces lower margins in the first quarter relative to annual results. Management focuses on adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as key measures of profitable growth and approximation of cash flow generation.

Conference Call Information

The Altus Power management team will host a conference call to discuss its first quarter 2022 financial results on Monday, May 16, 2022, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The call can be accessed via a live webcast accessible on the Events & Presentations page in the Investor Relations section of Altus Power’s website at www.altuspower.com. An archive of the webcast will be available after the call on the Investor Relations section of Altus Power’s website as well.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

*Denotes Non-GAAP financial measure. We present our operating results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). We believe certain financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide users of our financial statements with supplemental information that may be useful in evaluating our business. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus net interest expense, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, income tax expense, acquisition and entity formation costs, non-cash compensation expense, and excluding the effect of certain non-recurring items we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance such as, but not limited to, gain on fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, change in fair value of redeemable warrant liability, change in fair value of alignment shares, loss on extinguishment of debt, and other miscellaneous items of other income and expenses.

We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by operating revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures that we use to measure our performance. We believe that investors and analysts also use adjusted EBITDA in evaluating our operating performance. This measurement is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA is net income and to adjusted EBITDA margin is net income over operating revenues. The presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to suggest that our future results will be unaffected by non-cash or non-recurring items. In addition, our calculation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are not necessarily comparable to adjusted EBITDA as calculated by other companies and investors and analysts should read carefully the components of our calculations of these non-GAAP financial measures.

We believe adjusted EBITDA is useful to management, investors and analysts in providing a measure of core financial performance adjusted to allow for comparisons of results of operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis. These adjustments are intended to exclude items that are not indicative of the ongoing operating performance of the business. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by our management for internal planning purposes, including our consolidated operating budget, and by our board of directors in setting performance-based compensation targets. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to but viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, as we believe it provides a more complete understanding of ongoing business performance and trends than GAAP measures alone. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Altus Power does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, items such as acquisition and entity formation costs, gain on fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration, change in fair value of redeemable warrant liability, change in fair value of alignment shares. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Altus Power’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
