Rhea-AI Summary

FTC Solar (Nasdaq: FTCI) reported Q3 2025 revenue of $26.0 million, up 156.8% y/y and 30.2% q/q, with GAAP gross profit of $1.6 million (6.1% margin) and non-GAAP gross profit of $2.0 million (7.7%). Adjusted EBITDA improved to a $4.0 million loss, the best since 2020. GAAP net loss was $23.9 million or $1.61 diluted loss per share.

Insights

Equity Analyst

FTC Solar reported clear operational recovery: revenue and margins improved materially, financing strengthened liquidity, and a large supply agreement adds future optionality.

The company delivered $26.0 million in third-quarter revenue, up 156.8% year-over-year and 30.2% sequentially, with GAAP gross margin at 6.1% and Non-GAAP gross margin at 7.7%. Adjusted EBITDA loss narrowed to $4.0 million, the smallest since 2020 by the company’s measure. Management closed initial tranches of a strategic financing facility providing up to $75 million and announced a one-gigawatt tracker supply agreement with Levona Renewables, which introduces potential future revenue beyond the contracted backlog of approximately $462 million.

Key dependencies and near-term risks remain visible in the reported facts. GAAP net loss widened to $23.9 million and diluted loss per share was $(1.61), indicating continuing reported losses despite operating improvement. The Levona agreement is described separately from the company’s contracted backlog and thus does not yet contribute guaranteed backlog. The Alpha Steel acquisition for approximately $2.7 million closes on 11/12/2025 and gives full ownership of an internal steel supplier, which the company positions as improving domestic content capability.

Watch for execution milestones over the next quarters: compare actual Q4 2025 revenue against the company’s guidance range ($30.0–$35.0 million) and whether the Levona agreement portions convert into contractually committed backlog; also monitor whether Adjusted EBITDA moves to break-even per the company’s guidance band. Near-term indicators (quarterly revenue, contract signings, and financing drawdowns) should clarify whether margin and scale trends persist into construction start for CT Solar One in early 2026.

Third Quarter Highlights and Recent Developments

• Third quarter revenue of $26.0 million, up 156.8% y/y, ahead of target guidance
• Gross margin improvement of more than 2,500 basis points q/q and 4,500 points y/y
• Lowest loss from Operations and best Adjusted EBITDA since 2020
• Secured $75 million strategic financing facility during quarter; closed on $37.5 million
• Announced 1GW tracker supply agreement with Levona Renewables
  

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTC Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: FTCI), a leading provider of solar tracker systems, today announced financial results for the third quarter that ended September 30, 2025.

“Third quarter results came in above the high-end of our guidance ranges on nearly all metrics,” commented Yann Brandt, President and Chief Executive Officer of FTC Solar. “I’m pleased to say that the company remains on a growth trajectory with quarterly revenue up nearly 160% year-over-year and at its highest level in eight quarters; operating income and adjusted EBITDA at the highest levels in 5 years; and a more compelling and complete product offering helping to drive increasing traction with key existing and new customers. Overall, I believe the company continues to make great progress across all aspects of the business, and I am excited about the long-term potential of this company.”

Third Quarter Results
Total third-quarter revenue was $26.0 million, which was above our target range. This revenue level represents an increase of 30.2% compared to the prior quarter and an increase of 156.8% compared to the year-earlier quarter.

GAAP gross profit was $1.6 million, or 6.1% of revenue, compared to gross loss of $3.9 million, or 19.6% of revenue, in the prior quarter. Non-GAAP gross profit was $2.0 million or 7.7% of revenue, and represented the company’s return to positive gross margin for the first time since late 2023. This compares to Non-GAAP gross loss of $3.9 million in the prior-year period.

GAAP operating expenses were $9.3 million. On a Non-GAAP basis, operating expenses were $8.0 million. This compares to Non-GAAP operating expenses of $8.1 million in the year-ago quarter.

GAAP net loss was $23.9 million or $1.61 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $15.4 million or $1.18 per diluted share in the prior quarter and a net loss of $15.4 million or $1.21 per diluted share (post-split) in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA loss, which excludes approximately $20.0 million for (i) a loss from the change in fair value of the warrant liability, (ii) loss on extinguishment of debt, (iii) certain CEO transition costs, and (iv) costs for a special stockholders' meeting in September 2025 and other non-cash items, was $4.0 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA losses of $10.4 million¹ in the prior quarter and $12.2 million in the year-ago quarter.

On August 16, the company announced a one-gigawatt tracker supply agreement with Levona Renewables. The first project expected under the agreement, CT Solar One, is a 140-megawatt utility-scale solar facility under development in Snyder, Texas. The project is being built on 478 acres within a 27,000-acre site and is slated for construction start in early 2026. This project will be followed by CT Solar Two and CT Solar Three, which together will add another approximately 650 megawatts to the overall site development. The projects will utilize FTC Solar’s innovative Pioneer 1P trackers combined with its SunPath performance-enhancing software to capture additional energy yield through optimized terrain-based backtracking and diffuse light optimization.

The contracted portion of the company's backlog², which does not include any portion of the Levona agreement, which is not yet contracted, now stands at approximately $462 million.

Financing Close

On July 2, 2025, the company entered into a new $75 million strategic financing facility which provides for an initial term loan financing of up to $37.5 million. Of this amount, $14.3 million of term loan financing and an associated warrant issuance closed and funded on July 2, 2025 and the balance of $23.2 million of the initial financing closed on September 19, 2025, following shareholder approval. The Financing Facility also provides for up to an additional $37.5 million in funding to be available to the company as may be needed in the future upon mutual agreement between the company and the investors under the financing facility, for a total potential financing of $75 million.

Subsequent Events

On November 11, 2025, the company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire the 55% interest in Alpha Steel, LLC owned by our joint venture partners for a total cash consideration of approximately $2.7 million. The company established Alpha Steel as a manufacturing joint venture partnership in 2023 to manufacture steel components, including torque tubes, rails and other components, for utility scale solar projects. Following the closing of the transaction (which the company anticipates will be on November 12, 2025), FTC Solar will become the sole owner of Alpha Steel, LLC giving the company full control over a key contributor to its domestic content capability and additional profit potential, while ensuring compliance with guidelines included in the OBBB budget bill.

Outlook
For the fourth quarter, we expect revenue at the midpoint of our guidance range to be up approximately 25% compared to the third quarter.

Footnotes
1. A reconciliation of prior quarter Non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures may be found in Exhibit 99.1 of our Form 8-K filed on August 5, 2025.
2. The term ‘backlog’ or ‘contracted and awarded’ refers to the combination of our executed contracts (contracted) and awarded orders (awarded), which are orders that have been documented and signed through a contract, where we are in the process of documenting a contract but for which a contract has not yet been signed, or that have been awarded in writing or verbally with a mutual understanding that the order will be contracted in the future. In the case of certain projects, including those that are scheduled for delivery on later dates, we have not locked in binding pricing with customers, and we instead use estimated average selling price to calculate the revenue included in our contracted and awarded orders for such projects. Actual revenue for these projects could differ once contracts with binding pricing are executed, and there is also a risk that a contract may never be executed for an awarded but uncontracted project, or that a contract may be executed for an awarded but uncontracted project at a date that is later than anticipated, or that a contract once executed may be subsequently amended, supplemented, rescinded, cancelled or breached, including in a manner that impacts the timing and amounts of payments due thereunder, thus reducing anticipated revenues. Please refer to our SEC filings, including our Form 10-K, for more information on our contracted and awarded orders, including risk factors.
3. We do not provide a quantitative reconciliation of our forward-looking Non-GAAP guidance measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures because certain information needed to reconcile those measures is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying these measures as a result of changes in project schedules by our customers that may occur, which are outside of our control, and the impact, if any, of credit loss provisions, asset impairment charges, restructuring or changes in the timing and level of indirect or overhead spending, as well as other matters, that could occur which could significantly impact the related GAAP financial measures.

Notes to Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Nearest Comparable GAAP Measures

We utilize Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss, and Adjusted EPS as supplemental measures of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss plus (i) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (ii) interest expense, less interest income, (iii) depreciation expense, (iv) amortization of intangibles, (v) stock-based compensation, (vi) loss from changes in the fair value of our warrant liability, (vii) loss on extinguishment of debt, and (viii) Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") transition costs, non-routine legal fees, costs associated with our reverse stock split and special stockholders' meeting, severance and certain other costs (credits). We also deduct the contingent gains arising from earnout payments and project escrow releases relating to the disposal of our investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary and gains from changes in fair value of our warrant liability from net loss in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted Net Loss as net loss plus (i) amortization of debt discount and issue costs and intangibles, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) loss from changes in the fair value of our warrant liability, (iv) loss on extinguishment of debt, (v) CEO transition costs, non-routine legal fees, costs associated with our reverse stock split and special stockholders' meeting, severance and certain other costs (credits), and (vi) the income tax expense (benefit) of those adjustments, if any. We also deduct the contingent gains arising from earnout payments and project escrow releases relating to the disposal of our investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary and gains from changes in fair value of our warrant liability in arriving at Adjusted Net Loss. Adjusted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Loss on a per share basis using our weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP gross profit (loss), Non-GAAP operating expense, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS are intended as supplemental measures of performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We present these Non-GAAP measures, many of which are commonly used by investors and analysts, because we believe they assist those investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on an ongoing basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.

Non-GAAP gross profit (loss), Non-GAAP operating expense, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and you should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. These Non-GAAP financial measures, when presented, are reconciled to the most closely applicable GAAP measure as disclosed below.

The following table reconciles Non-GAAP gross profit (loss) to the most closely related GAAP measure for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively:
