PORTLAND, Tenn., Nov. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shoals Technologies Group, Inc. (“Shoals” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SHLS), a leading provider of electrical balance of system (“EBOS”) solutions for solar, battery storage, and electric vehicle charging infrastructure, today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
“Shoals had an exceptionally strong third quarter, delivering record revenue, gross profit and adjusted EBITDA. We grew revenues 52% year-over-year, with System Solutions revenue increasing 80% compared to the year-ago period which drove significantly higher gross margin,” said Jason Whitaker, Chief Executive Officer of Shoals.
“Demand for our products has continued to grow faster than the overall market, which is underscored by the 74% year-over-year increase in our backlog and awarded orders this quarter. Customer demand for our combine-as-you-go solution is particularly robust, with four new customers converting to our system during the quarter, bringing the total number of BLA customers to 33. We are also building backlog of our EV System Solutions after making our first shipments of these products during the quarter. We anticipate another step change in our growth next year as our EV charging products gain acceptance in the market and our BLA 2.0 and high-capacity plug-and-play wire harnesses receive UL certification, which we remain on track to obtain by year’s end,” added Mr. Whitaker
“At the same time as we are taking share and introducing new products, conditions in our core solar market are improving. The two-year tariff exemption for Chinese solar panels, the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act and higher energy prices have given our customers and end-users the confidence to reinitiate previously delayed projects, make multi-year commitments to invest in solar generation and prioritize product availability and performance over price. As a result of the improving solar market conditions and our recent performance, we are raising the low end of our 2022 outlook. I am proud of what our team has achieved and could not be more excited about the future,” concluded Mr. Whitaker.
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue grew 52%, to $90.8 million, compared to $59.8 million for the prior-year period, driven by higher sales volumes as a result of increased demand for solar EBOS generally and the Company’s combine-as-you-go system solutions specifically and initial sales of our EV solutions products. System Solutions and Components revenue increased 80% and 1%, respectively, compared to the prior-year period. The growth in System Solutions revenues reflects strong demand for the Company’s combine-as-you-go system. System Solutions represented 77% of revenue versus 65% in the prior-year period.
Gross profit increased 66% to $36.0 million, compared to $21.8 million in the prior-year period. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue grew 330 bps to 39.7% compared to 36.4% in the prior-year period, driven primarily by a higher proportion of revenue from the Company’s combine-as-you-go System Solutions which carry higher margins than the company’s other products and increased leverage on fixed costs as a result of higher sales volumes.
General and administrative expenses were $13.9 million, compared to $10.0 million during the same period in the prior year. This increase was primarily the result of higher non-cash stock-based compensation, planned increases in payroll expense due to higher headcount supporting growth and new product initiatives, as well as higher public company costs.
Income from operations was $20.0 million, compared to $9.6 million during the same period in the prior year.
Net income was $12.8 million compared to $5.3 million during the same period in the prior year. Basic and diluted net income per share was $0.07 compared to basic and diluted net income per share of $0.02 in the prior-year period.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 57% to $26.6 million compared to $16.9 million for the prior-year period.
Adjusted net income grew 43% to $16.6 million compared to $11.6 million during the same period in the prior year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.10 compared to $0.07 in the prior-year period.
Backlog and Awarded Orders
The Company’s backlog and awarded orders as of September 30, 2022 were $471.2 million, representing a 74% increase versus the same time last year and a 44% sequential increase from June 30, 2022. The increase in backlog and awarded orders reflects continued robust demand for the Company’s solar products as well as the introduction of new EV charging products.
Full Year 2022 Outlook
Based on current business conditions, business trends and other factors, for the year ending December 31, 2022, the Company is raising the low end of its outlook and now expects:
- Revenue to be in the range of $310 million to $325 million up from $300 million to $325 million
- Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $80 million to $86 million up from $77 million to $86 million
- Adjusted net income to be in the range of $48 million to $53 million up from $45 million to $53 million
A reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP measures to the applicable U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measures are found within this release.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, technology developments, financing and investment plans, dividend policy, competitive position, industry and regulatory environment, potential growth opportunities and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” "seek," “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Some of the key factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations include, among others, lower growth than anticipated in demand for solar energy projects and EV charging infrastructure; existing governmental policies and regulations, and any subsequent changes, which may present technical, regulatory and economic barriers; macroeconomic events, including heightened inflation, rise in interest rates and a potential recession; changes in the United States trade environment, including the imposition of import tariffs and antidumping and countervailing duties; our failure to, or incurrence of significant costs in order to, obtain, maintain, protect, defend or enforce our intellectual property and other proprietary rights; failure to integrate acquired businesses, and delays, disruptions or quality control problems in our manufacturing operations in part due to vendor concentration. Other risks and uncertainties are described in the section entitled "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this report. You should read this report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.
Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income guidance, which are forward-looking measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, is not provided because we are unable to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable effort. The inability to provide a quantitative reconciliation is due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty in predicting the occurrence, the financial impact and the periods in which the components of the applicable GAAP measures and non-GAAP adjustments may be recognized. The GAAP measures may include the impact of such items as non-cash share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and the tax effect of such items, in addition to other items we have historically excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income. We expect to continue to exclude these items in future disclosures of these non-GAAP measures and may also exclude other similar items that may arise in the future.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share (“EPS”)
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) depreciation expense, (iv) amortization of intangibles, (v) payable pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) liability adjustment, (vi) loss on debt repayment, (vii) equity-based compensation, (viii) acquisition-related expenses, (ix) COVID-19 expenses and (x) non-recurring and other expenses. We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) attributable to Shoals Technologies Group, Inc. plus (i) net income impact from pro forma conversion of Class B common stock to Class A common stock, (ii) amortization of intangibles, (iii) payable pursuant to the TRA liability adjustment, (iv) loss on debt repayment, (v) amortization of deferred financing costs, (vi) equity-based compensation, (vii) acquisition-related expenses, (viii) COVID-19 expenses and (ix) non-recurring and other expenses, all net of applicable income taxes. We define Adjusted Diluted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average shares of Class A common shares outstanding for the applicable period, which assumes the pro forma exchange of all outstanding Class B common shares for Class A common shares.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS are intended as supplemental measures of performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. We present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS: (i) as factors in evaluating management’s performance when determining incentive compensation; (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; and (iii) because our credit agreement uses measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS to measure our compliance with certain covenants.
Among other limitations, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS do not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, contractual commitments or the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax expense or benefit for periods prior to the reorganization conducted at the time of the initial public offering. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS may be calculated by other companies in our industry differently than we do or not at all, which may limit their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
You should review the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA, and net income attributable to Shoals Technologies Group, Inc. to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
