Insights

Financial Analyst

PowerBank shows mixed results with declining revenue but strategic pivot to IPP assets with 1,508% IPP revenue growth and expanding development pipeline.

PowerBank's fiscal 2025 results reveal a company in strategic transition, shifting from one-time project sales toward building recurring revenue through Independent Power Producer (IPP) assets. While total revenue decreased by 29% to $41.5 million from $58.4 million, IPP revenue surged 1,508% to $9.3 million from $0.6 million.

The gross margin improved to 25.0% from 20.0%, demonstrating that the quality of revenue is increasing despite lower overall volume. However, the company posted an adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.68 million versus a positive $0.82 million last year, and a significant net loss of $31.1 million ($0.97 per share), compared to a $3.6 million loss in FY 2024.

Two notable expense items drove the larger loss: professional fees of $13.1 million related to business expansion following the SFF acquisition, and a non-recurring impairment charge of $30.4 million.

The balance sheet shows significant growth with current assets increasing to $41.3 million from $17.6 million, including $14.9 million in cash and investments. However, current liabilities also jumped to $43.1 million from $13.4 million, creating potential short-term liquidity pressure.

Strategically, PowerBank completed the $45 million acquisition of Solar Flow-Through Funds, adding 29 MW of operating assets. The company is also finalizing a potential US$100 million non-dilutive project financing with CIM Group, which would significantly boost its development capacity. The company's project pipeline now stands at 942 MW of solar and 864 MWh of battery storage projects in various stages of development.

PowerBank sold several projects in New York and Camillus, which will generate EPC revenue but reduce long-term IPP assets. The company is also actively pursuing battery storage projects in Ontario, though permitting delays threaten timeline compliance for some projects, resulting in force majeure notices to the system operator.

This transition year shows PowerBank executing its strategic shift but facing significant financial costs and execution challenges as it builds for long-term recurring revenue.

TORONTO, Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN; Cboe CA: SUNN, FSE: 103) ("PowerBank" or the "Company), reports results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. All financial figures are in Canadian dollars and in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB as presented in the consolidated financial statements.

Fiscal Year Highlights (All Amounts are for the Twelve Month Period ended June 30, 2025 ("FY 2025") compared to the Twelve Month Period ended June 30, 2024 ("FY 2024"))

• Revenues decreased by 29% to $41.5 million in FY 2025 as compared to $58.4 million in FY 2024.
  • IPP revenues increased by 1,508% to $9.3 million in FY 2025 as compared to $0.6 million in FY 2024.
• Gross margin improved to 25.0% in FY 2025 as compared to 20.0% in FY 2024.
• Despite the decrease in revenues, gross profit only decreased by 10.0% to $10.5 million in FY 2025 as compared to $11.7 million in FY 2024.
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of ($0.68) million in FY 2025 compared to $0.82 million for FY 2024.
• Net loss of $31.1 million in FY 2025, or $0.97 per basic share, compared to net loss of $3.6 million in FY 2024, or $0.13 per basic share. The net loss includes major items below:
  • Professional and consulting fees were $13.1 million, primarily reflecting higher costs associated with business expansion activities undertaken following the acquisition of Solar Flow-Through Funds Ltd. ("SFF") in FY2025; and
  • Impairment loss of $30.4 million, which is non-recurring.

Dr. Richard Lu, President and CEO of PowerBank commented: "Throughout the fiscal year, I have highlighted that this was a year of transition for PowerBank. PowerBank's strategic focus is growing its independent power producer asset base, creating long term revenues for years to come. This means more projects retained and a longer cycle as PowerBank works to finance these assets to retain ownership. PowerBank began the year by acquiring Solar Flow-Through Funds Ltd. and its 29 MW of operating assets. PowerBank finished the year continuing to work with CIM on the previously announced transaction pursuant to which CIM transaction will provide up to US$100 million in non-dilutive equity capital for projects that will transform PowerBank's independent power producer asset base."

Dr. Lu continued: "The One Big Beautiful Bill Act has also created an opportunity for PowerBank to accelerate its development pipeline based on the new deadlines. The Company has prioritized development pathways in key U.S. states where site control, interconnection progress, and permitting are sufficiently advanced to qualify for full ITC treatment under the new rules. In parallel, PowerBank's diversified footprint across Canada offers resilience against U.S. policy risk. The Company is currently deploying battery storage systems in Ontario under the Independent Electricity System Operator's (IESO) Long-Term RFP framework, which is designed to secure clean, dispatchable capacity through decade-long contracts. PowerBank is also a leader in Nova Scotia's Community Solar program, where it holds significant market share and is actively expanding."

Corporate Updates

During FY 2025 and subsequent to year-end, the Company highlights the following:

• The Company closed its acquisition of SFF. This transaction values SFF at up to $45M but the consideration payable excludes the common shares of SFF currently held by the Company.
  
  
• CIM Group ("CIM"), a real estate and infrastructure owner, operator, lender and developer, and the Company have entered into a Mandate Letter providing for up to US$100 million in project based financing for a portfolio of up to 97 MW of solar power projects located in the United States (the "CIM Transaction").
  
  
• Continued execution on the Company's development pipeline of solar PV projects that totals approximately 942 MW and BESS projects that totals approximately 864 MWh. The Company categorizes its development pipeline into the following three categories: (1) "Under Construction" means the commercial operation date for the project is expected to occur within the next six to twelve months; (2) "Advanced Development" means the project is expected to reach NTP stage within the next six to twelve months; and (3) "Development" means the project is expected to reach NTP stage in greater than twelve months. The existing operational assets and development pipeline is broken down as follows:

 

(MWdc, MWh)	Total	BESS (MWh)	PV (MW)
Operational	35	-	35
Under Construction	59	20	39
Advanced Development	128	44	84
Development	1,584	800	784
Total	1,806	864	942

 

• The Company entered into agreement with Qcells, through an affiliate, to sell four ground-mount solar power projects that are under development in upstate New York representing 25.58 MW. The projects will be developed as four separate solar power projects. The Company will now continue to build the Projects for Qcells to commercial operation via EPC agreements. The sale of the projects and EPC agreement have a total value of approximately US$49.5 million. The Company also expects that it will retain an operations and maintenance contract for the projects following the completion of construction. Two of the four projects have commenced construction (Hardie and Rice Rd) and two of the four projects remain in the permitting stage (Gainesville and Hwy 28). As it relates to Gainesville, a decision of the town to deny a variance application is being challenged in the Super Court, State of New York. Refer to the MD&A for additional details.
  
  
• The Company announced its strategic expansion into the rapidly growing data market. The Company does not presently have any contracts to develop or power a data center but it is in discussions with various other parties regarding potential data center opportunities and will provide details if an agreement to acquire or develop a data center is concluded.
  
  
• The Company announced that its 3.26 MW Camillus Solar Project has been sold to, and will now be constructed for, Solar Advocate Development LLC ("Solar Advocate") in a transaction valued at US$7.3 million. Engineering and initial construction have commenced and the Company has initiated procurement of major equipment. The Company will now continue to build the project for Solar Advocate to commercial operation via an EPC agreement dated March 18, 2025. The sale price for the project, and value of the EPC agreement are approximately US$7.3 million.
  
  
• The Company closed a registered direct offering with a single institutional investor. The investor purchased 2,394,367 common shares and warrants to purchase up to 2,394,367 common shares at a combined purchase price of US$3.55 per common share and accompanying warrant for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately US$8.5 million before deducting fees and other estimated offering expenses (the "2025 Offering"). The warrants are exercisable immediately at an exercise price of US$4.45 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance. Approximately US$8.5 million was funded in full upon the closing of the 2025 Offering, and up to an additional US$10.65 million may be funded upon full cash exercise of the warrants. No assurance can be given that any of the warrants will be exercised.
  
  
• The Company announced that Sydney, Brooklyn, and Petpeswick Community Solar projects in Nova Scotia were granted $1.74 million in funding through the Nova Scotia Department of Environment and Climate Changes provided by the Nova Scotia Department of Energy and managed by the Net Zero Atlantic program. These projects are owned by a third party and are being developed by the Company for the third party.
  
  
• Continued development of BESS projects located in Ontario, two of which are backed by a backed by a $25.8 million Royal Bank of Canada Project Finance facility:
  • SFF-06 Project: The project known as SFF-06 is under construction and on August 6, 2025 the Company announced the installation of its 4.99 MW BESS at the project. This project is expected to start commissioning and reach permission to operate before the end of the calendar year.
    
    
  • 903 Project: As previously disclosed, the 903 project remains in the permitting phase, and construction cannot commence until all final permits have been secured. Specifically, the project requires an Official Plan Amendment and a Zoning By-law Amendment ("OPA/ZBA") from the Township of Armour, Ontario. On November 8, 2022, 1000234763 Ontario Inc. ("ProjectCo") received a Municipal Support Resolution from the Township of Armour, which was unanimously approved by council. However, approval of the OPA/ZBA has been delayed due to public opposition and council's ongoing evaluation of how to address that opposition. These delays mean ProjectCo may not be able to begin construction in line with the original schedule, which in turn impacts the ability to achieve commercial operation by April 2026. To preserve its rights under the E-LT1 contract, ProjectCo has submitted a notice of potential force majeure to the IESO related to the OPA/ZBA delay. This request is still under consideration, and the potential impact on the project schedule remains uncertain. As of September 19, 2025, the Township of Armour confirmed that it will proceed with scheduling the statutory public meeting for the OPA/ZBA submission, with a decision expected by Q2 FY 2026. Following OPA/ZBA approval, ProjectCo will still need to obtain Site Plan Approval ("SPA"), Planning Act consent, and a building permit before construction can begin.
    
    
  • OZ-1 Project: On February 26, 2025, the Company submitted an application to the Municipality of Arran-Elderslie for SPA related to the proposed BESS project, along with an application for consent to establish a long-term lease on the lands where the OZ-1 Project is located (the "OZ-1 Consent"). The consent application was made under Section 50(3) of the Planning Act (Ontario) to permit a lease exceeding 21 years. The SPA is still under review by the Municipality, and both the timing and outcome of the approval remain uncertain at this stage. On July 29, 2025, the County of Bruce provisionally approved Consent Application B-2024-075, subject to seven (7) conditions. Certain conditions were overly broad, lacked clarity, and were considered unreasonable. As a result, the Company appealed the decision to the Ontario Land Tribunal ("OLT") on August 19, 2025. The County has since expressed interest in resolving the matter internally without proceeding to the OLT and has 75 days from the date of appeal to do so. Discussions are ongoing between the Company's and the County's counsels with the goal of either narrowing the conditions or obtaining municipal confirmation that the conditions have been satisfied. If the parties cannot resolve the matter within this timeframe, the appeal will proceed to the OLT. At this stage, the likelihood of resolution within the allotted time, or of success at the OLT, cannot be reasonably predicted. Delays in resolving the OZ-1 Consent mean that construction may not begin as originally planned, which in turn jeopardizes achieving commercial operation by April 2026. To preserve its rights under the E-LT1 contract, the Company has submitted a notice of potential force majeure to the IESO related to these delays. The timing of permit issuance and the impact on the project schedule remain uncertain.
    
    
  • BESS Supplier: As a result of these permitting delays, the Company and its battery storage systems supplier (the "Supplier") are in discussions to terminate the contracts for OZ-1 on mutually agreeable terms. Once permitting certainty is achieved for OZ-1, the Company will either re-enter into agreements with the Supplier or pursue an alternative supplier. Under the proposed termination arrangement, the parties agree to terminate the OZ-1 equipment supply and long-term service agreements, with PowerBank relinquishing all rights and obligations. The Supplier will retain possession and property of the systems originally allocated to OZ-1, and PowerBank will pay the Supplier a termination fee of $475,000 along with a reimbursement of certain retrofit costs in the amount of $100,000, in addition to any amounts due for services performed to date. Final completion deadlines for those projects are also being adjusted, and the termination arrangement remains subject to lender consent and execution of definitive agreements.

The Company notes that the execution of the Company's growth strategy depends upon the continued availability of third-party financing arrangements for the Company and its customers and the Company's future success depends partly on its ability to expand the pipeline of its energy business in several key markets. In addition, governments may revise, reduce or eliminate incentives and policy support schemes for solar and battery storage power, which could cause demand for the Company's services to decline. Further the forecasted MW capacity of a solar project or BESS may not be reached. Qcells will pay the purchase price for the projects sold to Qcells, and construction costs under the EPC agreements, in stages. If Qcells does not obtain the necessary financing the Company is obligated to reacquire the projects subject to retention of an initial payment. The Company is also obligated to acquire any projects that do not commence construction by a certain deadline.

The CIM Transaction is subject to the execution of definitive documentation setting out all of the representations, warranties, covenants and conditions precedent associated with the CIM Transaction. There is a risk that definitive documentation may not be executed or that the conditions precedent to the CIM Transaction are not satisfied. In such case, no funding will be advanced under the terms of the CIM Transaction. PowerBank will also need to secure the financing required to develop the projects to mechanical completion and substantial completion, as prior to such milestone none of the funding from the CIM Transaction will be available.

The development of any data center project is subject to identification of a suitable project site, receipt of required permits, entry into contracts for construction and the use of the data center, the availability of third-party financing arrangements for the Company and the risks associated with the construction of a data center. In addition, governments may revise, reduce or eliminate incentives and policy support schemes for renewable energy, which could result in future projects no longer being economic.

Please refer to "Forward-Looking Statements" for additional discussion of the assumptions and risk factors associated with the statements in this press release.

Conference Call October 2, 2025, at 4:30 PM ET

The Company will review financial results and provide a business update. Interested parties can register for the webinar using the information below:

https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/5d39d710-ab89-42c3-94f1-5a417432ea1a@f90ea049-87a1-4082-95af-7e4e24c02cb4

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The Company has disclosed certain non-IFRS financial measures and ratios in this press, as discussed below. These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios are widely reported in the renewable energy industry as benchmarks for performance and are used by management to monitor and evaluate the Company's operating performance and ability to generate cash. The Company believes that, in addition to financial measures and ratios prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use these non-IFRS financial measures and ratios to evaluate the Company's performance. However, the measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures and ratios of the Company's performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Non-IFRS financial measures are defined in National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure ("NI 52-112") as a financial measure disclosed that (a) depicts the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of an entity, (b) with respect to its composition, excludes an amount that is included in, or includes an amount that is excluded from, the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of the entity, (c) is not disclosed in the financial statements of the entity, and (d) is not a ration, fraction, percentage or similar representation.

A non-IFRS ratio is defined by NI 52-112 as a financial measure disclosed that (a) is in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage, or similar representation, (b) has a non-IFRS financial measure as one or more of its components, and (c) is not disclosed in the financial statements.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure, which excludes the following from net earnings:

• Income tax expense;
• Finance costs;
• Amortization and depreciation;
• Fair value gain/loss;
• Unrealized foreign exchange gain/loss;
• Non-recurring income/expense;
• Loss on investments.

Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable indicator of the Company's ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose. EBITDA is also frequently used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes whereby Adjusted EBITDA is multiplied by a factor or "EBITDA multiple" based on an observed or inferred relationship between Adjusted EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a Company. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results because it is consistent with the indicators management uses internally to measure the Company's performance and is an indicator of the performance of the Company's renewable energy project development and operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts. It does not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of operating performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of non-cash costs of financing activities, income taxes, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, amortization of intangible asset, fair value gain on derivative contracts, unrealized foreign exchange, impairment loss and other non-recurring activities. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently.
