Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Ormat Technologies reported solid results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026, with continued progress on its diversified growth strategy. Q2 2026 total revenues were $258.8 million, up 10.6% year over year, and gross profit rose to $68.7 million, a 20.8% increase. For the first half, revenues reached $662.7 million, up 42.9%, and gross profit was $189.1 million, up 45.6%.

Segment performance was mixed but growth-oriented: Electricity revenues grew to $169.3 million in Q2, Energy Storage revenues surged to $42.8 million (up 195.1%), while Product revenues declined to $46.7 million (down 21.6%). Q2 operating income was $34.2 million, and net income attributable to stockholders was $27.1 million, with diluted EPS of $0.43. Adjusted net income was $31.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA $143.9 million, both higher than a year earlier.

Management highlighted expansion of the generation portfolio by 155 MW since the start of 2026 and a robust project pipeline, including 202 MW of electricity generation and 497 MW / 1,888 MWh of energy storage under construction and development, as well as meaningful progress in Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) pilots. Full-year 2026 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance were raised. The board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, payable September 2, 2026, to shareholders of record on August 19, 2026.

Positive

  • Total revenues grew strongly, reaching $258.8 million in Q2 2026 (up 10.6%) and $662.7 million in H1 2026 (up 42.9%), alongside higher gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA.
  • Energy Storage revenues accelerated, rising to $42.8 million in Q2 2026, an increase of 195.1% year over year, and to $87.7 million in H1 2026, up 172.0%.
  • Long-term outlook was reinforced as management raised full-year 2026 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance and reported 202 MW of generation and 497 MW / 1,888 MWh of storage projects under construction and development.
  • Shareholders benefit from cash returns via a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, declared for payment on September 2, 2026, with an indication of a similar dividend next quarter.

Negative

  • Product segment performance weakened, with Q2 2026 Product revenues at $46.7 million, down 21.6% year over year, and Q2 Product gross margin declining to 9.7% from 27.7%.
  • Profitability metrics softened on a GAAP basis in Q2 2026, as operating income slipped by 3.2%, net income attributable to stockholders by 3.4%, and diluted EPS by 6.5% compared with Q2 2025.

Filing Explained

Desert Peak drilling is planned for Q4 2026, so Ormat’s EGS pilots remain in development rather than completed commercial validation.

This Form 8-K furnishes Ormat’s second-quarter results under Item 2.02 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026; its structural update for common holders is the company’s reported cash and debt position.

At June 30, 2026, the company reported cash and cash equivalents of $513,747 thousand and restricted cash of $144,399 thousand, with restricted cash described as primarily related to variable-interest entities.

The same balance sheet reports $360,585 thousand of convertible senior notes as a current liability and $806,455 thousand as long-term convertible senior notes, identifying obligations in both balance-sheet categories at that date.

EGS progress remains pre-completion: at Desert Peak, Ormat completed data acquisition and advanced permitting and procurement, with drilling planned for the fourth quarter of 2026; at Sage, permitting, procurement, and engineering were still progressing.

The next named milestone is the planned Desert Peak drilling in the fourth quarter of 2026; the filing places both pilots toward commercial-scale validation rather than at reported validation completion.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
non-GAAP financial measures financial
"The Registrant is making reference to non-GAAP financial measures in the press release."
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
Enhanced Geothermal Systems technical
"We continued to make significant progress on our EGS strategy during the quarter."
An engineered approach to produce renewable heat and electricity by creating or enlarging pathways in hot underground rock, then circulating water to capture steam or hot fluid that drives turbines. Think of it as drilling into Earth to tap a steady, low-carbon boiler; for investors it promises long-lived, weather-independent power and potential steady revenue but involves high upfront drilling, technology and permitting risk that affects returns and timelines.
bargain purchase gain financial
"Bargain purchase gain | | | — | | | | — | | | | (9,616 | )"
A bargain purchase gain happens when a buyer acquires another company's assets for less than those assets' estimated fair value, producing an immediate accounting profit for the buyer. For investors, it matters because that one-time gain boosts the acquirer's reported earnings and can signal a very favorable deal — like finding a valuable item at a steep discount — but it may also prompt scrutiny about whether asset values or the deal terms were estimated correctly.
redeemable noncontrolling interest financial
"Redeemable noncontrolling interest | | | 9,906 | | | | 10,402 |"
A redeemable noncontrolling interest is a minority ownership stake in a business that the minority owner can require to be bought back for cash or that must be redeemed under set conditions. Investors care because it is not permanent equity: it represents a foreseeable cash obligation and can reduce the parent company’s reported equity and available cash, much like a loan from a roommate you must repay on request rather than shared ownership of the house.

“Our second quarter results reflect the continued successful execution of our diversified growth strategy. We delivered double-digit revenue growth while expanding gross profit by more than 20%, reflecting the strength and balance of our three operating segments. Based on our strong first-half performance and positive momentum across our business, we are raising our full-year 2026 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance," said Doron Blachar, Chief Executive Officer of Ormat.

 

Blachar continued, "Our Electricity segment built on its growth momentum during the quarter, driven by contributions from our Blue Mountain geothermal power plant acquired in June 2025, improved performance at our Olkaria and Puna power plants, and lower curtailments in the USA compared to the prior-year period. Our Energy Storage segment delivered another outstanding quarter, with revenues increasing nearly threefold year-over-year. The combination of new capacity additions, high asset availability and favorable merchant pricing highlights the value of our strategy of combining long-term contracted revenues with selective merchant exposure to maximize returns while maintaining disciplined risk management."

 

Blachar added, "Beyond our strong quarterly results, we continue to execute on the projects that will drive our growth. Since the start of the year, we expanded our generation portfolio by 155 MW with the addition of the Hoku solar and energy storage facility, the Shirk energy storage facility, the completion of the 5 MW Cove Fort upgrade and the recent commencement of commercial operations at our 10 MW Dominica geothermal power plant. Today, we have 202 MW of electricity generation projects under construction and development, all backed by long-term PPAs, together with 497 MW / 1,888 MWh of energy storage projects under construction and development, providing strong visibility into our continued growth. Combined with increasing demand for reliable renewable electricity and improving power pricing, these developments reinforce our confidence in achieving our long-term growth objectives."

 

EGS UPDATE

 

Blachar commented, “We continued to make significant progress on our EGS strategy during the quarter. On the subsurface side, we advanced both the SLB and Sage Geosystems pilot projects toward field execution, with each partnership taking concrete steps toward commercial-scale validation. At the Desert Peak project with SLB, we completed geophysical data acquisition, updated the subsurface model, advanced permitting and procurement of long-lead materials, and entered the final stages of vendor selection ahead of planned drilling in the fourth quarter of 2026. At the Sage Geosystems pilot, we selected a power plant in Nevada, advanced permitting activities, neared completion of procurement for drilling services and equipment and progressed engineering work to integrate the two-well EGS facility into the selected Ormat power plant.

 

We are also actively working to expand our substantial geothermal land position and water rights to support future EGS development, in addition to applying for new interconnections, recognizing that building a strong EGS pipeline will enable us to accelerate our project development.

 

On the surface technology side, we introduced our Ormega100 surface generation unit, a significant advancement in our ability to convert subsurface EGS resources into grid-scale power by connecting upstream development capabilities with downstream generation at an accelerated pace. Together with our growing pipeline of partnership opportunities, we anticipate that these initiatives position Ormat to accelerate the commercialization of EGS technology and capture increasing demand for next-generation geothermal power."

 

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

 

Net income attributable to stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $27.1 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $28.0 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by a $6.6 million write-off of storage projects that we decided to no longer pursue.

 

 

Adjusted net income for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $31.0 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared to $29.1 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The increase reflects strong underlying performance across our operating segments.

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased 6.9% to $143.9 million, reflecting strong contributions from our Energy Storage segment, which benefited from elevated merchant revenues and portfolio expansion.

 

 

Electricity segment revenues increased 5.8% quarter-over-quarter, primarily driven by contributions from the Blue Mountain acquisition, improved generation at the Puna and Olkaria facilities, higher energy rates at the Puna power plant and lower curtailments compared to the prior-year period. This increase was partially offset by planned maintenance activities.

 

 

 

 

Energy Storage revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased 195.1% in the second quarter compared to the prior-year period. Growth was driven by the high availability of our assets, which allowed us to capitalize on strong merchant pricing in the PJM market, as well as new portfolio capacity additions over the past 12 months. Ormat’s optimized mix of merchant and contracted revenues supported margin expansion.

 

 

Product segment revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026, declined due to the timing of manufacturing and construction progress, while first-half results continue to reflect strong execution driven by the Topp 2 sale.

 

 

Product segment gross Margin (%) during the quarter declined to 9.7% due to high expenses related to the construction costs of a project in Europe and the impact of the changes in exchange rate on our overall manufacturing costs. We are expecting gross margin to improve in the second half of the year.

 

 

Product backlog stood at approximately $202.8 million as of August 5, 2026, providing continued visibility into future revenue generation.

 

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS

 

 

In July 2026, we achieved commercial operation of our 10 MW Dominica geothermal power plant, demonstrating continued execution of the Company's global development pipeline.

 

 

In June 2026, we completed the 5 MW upgrade at the Cove Fort geothermal facility, enhancing the performance and profitability of the asset acquired in 2024.

 

 

In August 2026, we decided to move forward with the development of the 100 MW / 400 MWh Denali energy storage facility in California. Upon completion, expected by the end of 2028, the project is anticipated to provide energy storage services under a 20-year tolling agreement with Clean Power Alliance.

 

 

In May 2026, we secured a unique exploration financing facility for up to $40 million with PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur (SMI), Indonesia's state-owned infrastructure bank, for the Wapsalit geothermal project. Structured under the World Bank's Geothermal Resource Risk Mitigation (GREM) Program, the facility provides a risk-sharing mechanism that significantly reduces exploration risk and supports the continued expansion of Ormat's geothermal development activities in Indonesia.

 

2026 GUIDANCE

 

 

Total revenues are expected to be between $1,150 million and $1,200 million.

 

 

Electricity segment revenues of between $710 million and $725 million.

 

 

Product segment revenues of between $300 million and $320 million.

 

 

Energy Storage revenues of between $140 million and $155 million.

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $630 million and $650 million.

 

 

Of which approximately $17.0 million is attributable to minority interest.

 

The Company provides a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. However, the Company does not provide guidance on net income and is unable to provide a reconciliation for its Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to net income without unreasonable efforts due to high variability and complexity with respect to estimating certain forward-looking amounts, the probable significance of which cannot be determined. These include impairments and disposition and acquisition of business interests, income tax expense, and other non-cash expenses and adjusting items that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA.

 

 

 

DIVIDEND

 

On August 5, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors declared, approved, and authorized payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share pursuant to the Company’s dividend policy. The dividend will be paid on September 2, 2026, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 19, 2026. In addition, the Company expects to pay a dividend of $0.12 per share in the next quarter.

Reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

We calculate EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion, adjusted for (i) mark-to-market gains or losses from accounting for derivatives not designated as hedging instruments; (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) merger and acquisition transaction costs; (iv) gain or loss from extinguishment of liabilities; (v) cost related to a settlement agreement; (vi) non-cash impairment charges; (vii) write-off of unsuccessful exploration and storage activities; (viii) allowance for bad debts; and (ix) other unusual or non-recurring items. We adjust for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and/or are not factors used by management for evaluating operating performance. We believe that presentation of these measures will enhance an investor’s ability to evaluate our financial and operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net earnings as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our Board of Directors and senior management use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our financial performance. However, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do.

 

The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025:
