Business Highlights

* Grew backlog to more than $5.5 billion, reflecting strong customer demand and bookings momentum across core tracker products and accelerating growth in complementary platform technologies. Prevalon, closed in July 2026, adds incremental backlog significantly above $300 million.

* Expanded Nextpower’s clean power technology platform through acquisition of the Prevalon energy storage business as well as Apex Power and key assets of Zigor Corporation’s inverter business. Also announced an agreement to acquire Zimmermann PV-Steel Group to expand Nextpower’s European footprint and product portfolio.

* Delivered record quarterly eBOS bookings, with eBOS revenue on track to exceed well over $100 million for the year, achieved UL certification of NX PowerMerge™ and grew cumulative PowerMerge bookings to over 850 MW.

* Expanded the company’s #1 U.S. and global tracker market shares, according to Wood Mackenzie, while expanding Nextpower’s global project footprint to over 50 countries.

“Nextpower delivered record quarterly revenue and backlog, with strong bookings momentum across our business,” said Dan Shugar, CEO and founder of Nextpower. “These results confirm that customers are responding positively to our expanding clean power technology platform, including strong adoption of eBOS and growing traction across the broader product portfolio. With the recent addition of power conversion and energy storage product lines, we believe Nextpower is positioned to deliver even more value to customers as they generate, store, control, and deliver reliable power at scale. Our team remains focused on enhanced customer value, operational excellence, and disciplined growth.”

“This quarter’s financial performance and strong cash generation reinforce the durability of our business model and the execution of our operating platform,” said Chuck Boynton, CFO of Nextpower. “We remain focused on disciplined capital allocation maintaining a strong balance sheet, and investing in capabilities that complement our core business, deepen customer relationships, and drive long-term profitable growth.”

Schedule V

Nextpower Inc.

Notes

To supplement Nextpower’s unaudited selected financial data presented consistent with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges and gains, including adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted free cash flow. These supplemental measures exclude certain legal and other charges, stock-based compensation expense and intangible amortization, other discrete events as applicable and the related tax effects. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the amounts associated with Nextpower’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Nextpower’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of the Company’s performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to the Company’s ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, for calculating return on investment, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

* the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results;

* the ability to better identify trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analysis;

* a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business; and

* an easier way to compare the Company’s operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of each of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding each of these individual items in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of unvested restricted share unit and stock option awards granted to employees. The Company believes that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of its operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of award types. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on its operating results.

Intangible amortization consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. The Company considers its operating results without these charges when evaluating its ongoing performance and forecasting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that the assessment of its operations excluding these costs is relevant to its assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of its competitors.

Acquisition costs consist primarily of nonrecurring transaction costs, including integration and diligence activities.

Adjustment for taxes relates to the tax effects of the various adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income and certain adjustments related to non-recurring settlements of tax contingencies or other non-recurring tax charges, when applicable.

Other includes an immaterial amount of non-cash equity in loss for the Nextpower Arabia joint venture which is accounted for under the equity method investment accounting.
