SINGAPORE, April 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Maxeon Solar Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MAXN) ("Maxeon" or "the Company"), a global leader in solar innovation and channels, today announced its financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 3, 2021.

Maxeon Chief Executive Officer Jeff Waters commented, "In our first full quarter as an independent public company we delivered financial results consistent with our guidance while making progress on each of the three pillars of our strategy: our differentiated global brand and channel, our panel technology, and our focused approach to the large-scale market. In the fourth quarter we saw strong growth in both distributed generation and our large-scale businesses, with sequential revenue increases of 12% and 35%, respectively. Gross profit in Q4 was slightly higher than anticipated due primarily to higher than planned ASPs and improved product mix."

Discussing brand and channel, Waters noted: "Leveraging our industry-leading brand, channel, and solar panel technology, we took the first steps in our 'Beyond the Panel' strategy by introducing AC Modules with factory integrated micro-inverters. These Maxeon AC modules are currently shipping into seventeen European countries and Australia. We expect this initiative to drive significant margin uplift in the quarters ahead. To further drive our distributed generation effort, we announced that Ralf Elias will join our executive team to lead our distributed generation product initiatives. Ralf will solidify our strategy to build incremental revenue from integrated energy products and services on top of our current business."

Turning to technology, Waters elaborated: "We met key objectives on our next generation Maxeon 7 technology roadmap, achieving meaningful progress in efficiency and product safety attributes. These R&D successes further solidify our confidence that we can commercialize and ramp Maxeon 7 starting in late 2022."

Regarding the Company's large-scale focus, Waters remarked: "We are launching a strategic initiative to broaden our engagement in the U.S. market with our Performance line. We plan to leverage our large and growing sales pipeline and North American manufacturing assets to drive significant incremental sales in the region beyond our current rooftop distributed generation sales through SunPower."

First Quarter 2021

The solar industry faces pervasive upstream supply chain cost challenges, which did not improve in the first quarter of 2021. The Company expects that elevated costs for glass, solar cells, freight, and other items may persist well into the second half of 2021. In addition, the distributed generation business is traditionally very seasonal with the first half volumes typically delivering only 40% of the annual total, and the first quarter being the lowest. For the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company anticipates the following results:

Module shipments of approximately 375 MW.
Revenue of approximately $160 million.
Gross profit in a range of a loss of $5 million to a loss of $15 million. This includes out-of-market polysilicon cost of approximately $15 million.
Operating expense of approximately $38 million.
Capital expenditures for the first quarter will be around $10 million, directed mainly to upgrading Maxeon's manufacturing facilities. For fiscal year 2021, previously planned capital expenditures of $90 million are expected to be increased by another $80 million for the U.S.-focused Performance line initiative, subject to obtaining financing.

CEO Waters summarized: "Against a backdrop of strong and growing global distributed generation market demand, we are excited about the opportunity to expand and extend our leading go-to-market channel platform. In our large-scale business, we believe that the upstream supply chain disruptions will ease, although the exact timing is difficult to predict. We are well positioned to begin converting our 38 gigawatt global sales pipeline into orders as this occurs. Finally, we are excited by the prospect of becoming even more broadly engaged in the U.S. market with our Performance line."

The Company's business outlook is based on management's current views and estimates with respect to market conditions, production capacity, the uncertainty of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the global economic environment. Please refer to the Forward-Looking Statements section below. Management's views and estimates are subject to change without notice.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and EBITDA adjusted for specified additional items identified below ("Adjusted EBITDA"), which are non-GAAP measures to supplement our consolidated and combined financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors, enabling them to better assess changes in our results of operations across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of certain items as presented above. Thus, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide investors with additional methods to assess our operating results in a manner that is focused on our ongoing, core operating performance, absent the effects of these items. We also use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA internally to assess our business, financial performance and current and historical results, as well as for strategic decision-making and forecasting future results. Given our use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, we believe that these measures may be important to investors in understanding our operating results as seen through the eyes of management. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not prepared in accordance with GAAP or intended to be a replacement for GAAP financial data, should be reviewed together with GAAP measures and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

We adjust our EBITDA for the following items in arriving to the Adjusted EBITDA:

Stock-based compensation expense. Stock-based compensation relates primarily to equity incentive awards. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that is dependent on market forces that are difficult to predict. Management believes that this adjustment for stock-based compensation expense provides investors with a basis to measure our core performance, including the ability to compare our performance with the performance of other companies, without the period-to-period variability created by stock-based compensation.
Restructuring charges (benefits). We incurred restructuring expenses related to reorganization plans implemented by our former parent, SunPower, aimed towards realigning resources consistent with SunPower's global strategy and improving its overall operating efficiency and cost structure. Restructuring charges are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA financial measures because they are not considered core operating activities and such costs have historically occurred infrequently. Although we have engaged in restructuring activities in the past, past activities have been discrete events based on unique sets of business objectives. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to exclude restructuring charges from our Adjusted EBITDA financial measures as they are not reflective of ongoing operating results nor do these charges contribute to a meaningful evaluation of our past operating performance.

¹	Relates to the difference between our contractual cost for the polysilicon under the long-term fixed supply agreements with supplier and the price of polysilicon available in the market as derived from publicly available information at the time, multiplied by the volume of polysilicon we have consumed.
²	In order to reduce inventory and improve working capital, we have periodically elected to sell polysilicon inventory procured under the long-term fixed supply agreements in the market at prices below our purchase price, thereby incurring a loss.
³	Relates to the mark-to-market fair value remeasurement of privately negotiated prepaid forward and physical delivery forward transactions. For the three months ended January 3, 2021, the gain for the prepaid forward and physical delivery forward was $31.6 million and $12.4 million (three months ended September 27, 2020: loss of $1.8 million and $3.9 million) respectively. For fiscal year 2020, the gain for the prepaid forward and physical delivery forward was $29.7 million and $8.5 million. The transactions were entered in connection with the issuance of the $200.0 million aggregate principal amount 6.50% Green Convertible Senior Notes due 2025. The prepaid forward is remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period, with changes in fair value booked in earnings. The fair value of the prepaid forward is affected by the Company's share price and other factors impacting the valuation model. The physical delivery forward was remeasured to fair value at the end of the Note Valuation Period on September 29, 2020, and was reclassified to equity after remeasurement, and will not be subsequently remeasured. The fair value of the physical delivery forward was affected by the Company's share price and other factors impacting the valuation model.
⁴	Relates to long-term fixed supply agreements with a polysilicon supplier which is structured as "take or pay" contract, that specify future quantities and pricing of products to be supplied. We negotiated an extension of our long-term fixed supply agreements with the supplier which resulted in a one-time accommodation fees recognized during fiscal year 2020.
