3 months ending March 31, 2024

Revenue of $90m, up 27% year over year
Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $68m, up 28% year over year

Cash flow from operations of $35m, down 36% year over year
Reaffirming full year 2024 guidance

First Quarter Business Developments

High generation volumes at our wind projects more than offset the impact from low merchant prices in Spain.
Our U.S. projects are on schedule. Atrisco Solar and Storage are on track for COD in 2H24. Country Acres, Roadrunner and Quail Ranch, totaling 810 MW and 2.0 GWh are fast approaching Ready to Build.
Achieved financial close for European projects Pupin, Tapolca, and AC/DC, totaling 180 MW. Transactions included $137m of long-term debt and $29m of capital recycled back to Enlight.
Arad Valley 3, a part of the Israel Solar + Storage cluster, reached COD. Roll out of the remaining 5 sites of the cluster is on track for the rest of this year.
Project returns continue to rise, boosted by high PPA pricing and record low equipment costs.
No material changes to the Mature Project portfolio since last quarter's earnings report.

"Our results this quarter reflect a very robust start to 2024. Revenue grew by 27% and Adjusted EBITDA grew by 28%, driven by the strong performance of our operational assets. On the back of these strong results, we are pleased to reaffirm our full year Financial Outlook for 2024," said Gilad Yavetz, CEO of Enlight Renewable Energy.

"Operational performance this quarter was superb. Significantly higher energy generation at our wind projects boosted financial results, and construction plans for 2024 are on schedule. Atrisco will be entirely online by the end of 2024, with the construction of three new flagship projects in the United States set to begin during the second half of the year."

"Industry trends remain supportive for us, especially in the U.S. Estimates for long term load growth in the U.S. are rising significantly, due to increasing demand for power from onshoring of industry, new data centers, and further penetration of EVs. This is pushing PPA pricing higher, even as equipment costs remain low. As a result, returns continue to rise on the portfolio of projects we are set to construct during the coming years."

Overview of Financial and Operating Results: Revenue

($ thousands)	For the three-month period ended
Segment	March 31, 2024	March 31, 2023
Israel	28,474	13,838
Central-Eastern Europe	27,999	23,235
Western Europe	31,161	31,788
USA	1,231	-
Management and Construction	1,532	2,133
Total Revenues	90,397	70,994

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company's revenues increased to $90m, up from $71m last year, a growth rate of 27% year over year. The Company benefited from the revenue contribution of new operational projects, as well as higher production and inflation indexation embedded in our PPAs for already operational projects. This was offset by a decline in revenues driven by lower electricity prices in Spain relative to the prices observed in the same quarter in 2023.

Since the first quarter of 2023, 517 MW and 340 MWh of projects began selling electricity, including Apex Solar in the U.S.; ACDC in Hungary; Genesis Wind in Israel; and seven of the Solar & Storage cluster units in Israel. The Company also benefited from the ramp up of project Björnberget in Sweden which was partially operational in the first quarter of last year. These projects collectively generated $21m of revenue during the first quarter of 2024, with the biggest contributors being Björnberget $7m and Genesis Wind $9m. There was no material net FX impact on the Company's revenues this quarter.

Growth in revenues was offset by the decline in electricity prices for projects where electricity is sold under a merchant model. Despite a significant increase in production, Gecama revenues fell 6% year over year to $20m, driven by lower power prices in Spain. During the first quarter last year we sold electricity at Gecama at EUR 85 per MWh versus EUR 65 per MWh for the same period this year. See below for a sensitivity analysis on how Spanish electricity prices have a limited impact on our Financial Outlook.

Finally, the accounting reclassification of the remainder of our financial asset projects in Israel to fixed asset projects boosted revenues by $3m, though at the same time removed this sum from the financial income line item.

Financial performance was well-balanced between Western Europe, Central-Eastern Europe ("CEE") and Israel, with 64% of revenues in the first quarter of 2024 denominated in Euros, 3% in US Dollars, 1% in other European currencies, and 32% denominated in Israeli shekel.

Net Income

In the first quarter, the Company's net income decreased from $33m last year to $24m this year, a decline of 27% year over year. The drop can be ascribed to the unusually high financial income incurred during the first quarter last year. In 1Q23, we recorded a one-off $12m benefit caused by the depreciation of the Israeli Shekel on the large amount of cash the Company had received following completion of our Nasdaq IPO in February 2023. In addition, we recorded a $2m non-cash gain in 1Q24 stemming from the mark to market of interest rate hedges and a positive revaluation of foreign exchange-denominated liabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA¹

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA grew by 28% to $68m compared to $54m for the same period in 2023. The increase was driven by the same factors which affected our revenue increase, while the company overhead increased by $1m year-on-year.

Portfolio Overview²

Key changes to the Company's project portfolio during the first quarter of 2024:

Operational portfolio grew by 32 MW and 63 MWh
No material changes to the Mature Project portfolio

2 As of May 8, 2024, the "Approval Date"

United States

A majority of our Mature Portfolio and development pipeline is located in the US, and this region will soon become our largest market. In 2024, 1.2 GW and 3.2 GWh of projects are either expected to reach commercial operation or commence construction in this region.

Atrisco, comprising 364 MW of solar and 1.2 GWh of battery, is on schedule to reach COD by the end of 2024, with the solar portion during the third quarter and the storage during the fourth quarter. The solar project is mechanically complete and commissioning work is underway. Procurement of the batteries for Atrisco Storage has concluded, and the equipment is almost all on site. Work is now underway to connect the initial circuits, while at the same time we continue to progress on closing the financing and tax equity for the storage element.

We are on target to begin construction at our Quail Ranch, Roadrunner, and Country Acres projects this year, which together total 810 MW of generation and over 2 GWh of energy storage. Country Acres has already reached ready to build status, while our other two projects are awaiting their final milestones before commencing construction. Roadrunner is awaiting final government authorizations needed to proceed, while Quail Ranch is awaiting regulatory approval of its executed PPA. We will begin procurement for all three sites in the coming months, while working in earnest on financing packages which are expected to close during the second half of 2024.

We continue to see a very supportive business environment. Costs for both solar panels and batteries have fallen significantly in recent months. Solar module and battery prices are now approximately 25 cents and $170 respectively, down by 35% since the beginning of 2023. These positive fundamentals are boosting our project returns in the U.S. during 2024 and beyond.

Finally, there has been renewed concern regarding possible new trade sanctions aimed at Asian equipment manufacturers. Clenera uses modules supplied from SE Asia and India that are audited by third parties to ensure compliance with today's UFLPA and AD/CVD rules. If additional sanctions emerge, we have contingency plans in place to limit potential supply chain impact, including use of U.S. assembled bifacial panels and batteries.

Europe

During the first quarter, the Pupin wind farm in Serbia, with a 94 MW capacity, achieved financial close through a $95m loan arranged by EBRD and Erste. The project is advancing on schedule, with construction having begun in 2Q23, and is expected to reach COD during 2H25. The Tapolca and AC/DC projects in Hungary also reached financial close with a $42m loan from Raiffeisen Bank, resulting in $29m of excess capital recycled back to Enlight. Tapolca, a solar project in Hungary with a capacity of 60 MW, is currently under construction and is on schedule to reach COD during 2H24, while AC/DC, with a generation capacity of 26 MW, is currently operating.

The Gecama Hybrid Solar project with 225 MW of solar and 220 MWh of storage capacity continues to pursue the receipt of its environmental permit from Spanish authorities, which represents the site's last major development milestone. We are commencing initial engineering work for the project, and subject to receiving the permit, we expect construction to begin during 2H24.

Moving to our operational portfolio, the Gecama Wind project in Spain sold electricity at an average price of EUR 65 per MWh during 1Q24 compared to EUR 85 per MWh last year, as prices fell significantly on the back of high volumes of country-wide renewable power generation. During the quarter, 48% of production was sold at merchant price of EUR 30 per MWh, while 52% of production was sold under a financial hedge at EUR 98 per MWh. The impact of weaker prices was offset by higher-than-usual generation volumes, as well as the hedges we put in place. The volume of electricity generated at Gecama was 20% higher than in 1Q23.

Despite the volatility of electricity prices, Enlight's hedging strategy provided significant downside protection, and will continue to do so for the rest of the year. Our EUR 100 per MWh hedge will cover 65% of Gecama's anticipated generation for the rest of 2024, and the sensitivity analysis below demonstrates that our Adjusted EBITDA (taken at the midpoint of the range presented in our Financial Outlook) is only minimally impacted by changes to Spanish electricity prices for the remainder of 2024.

On a broader level, 90% of Enlight's total generation volumes will be sold at fixed prices this year, whether via PPAs or hedges. Enlight has already begun preparing a hedging strategy for 2025. In this respect, we have entered into futures contracts covering 30% of our estimated generation output for next year at an approximate price of EUR 60 per MWh.

Analysis based on the midpoint of the Company's 2024 financial outlook of $235-$255 in Adjusted EBITDA and a capture rate of 89%. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort because items that impact this IFRS financial measure are not within the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted.

Israel

The build out of the Israel Solar + Storage clusters continued with the COD of Arad Valley 3, adding 30 MW and 63 MWh to this project. This is the seventh unit within the cluster, which will ultimately comprise of 12 sites in the north and center of Israel, with a total capacity of 248 MW and 593 MWh. We expect a gradual COD for the remaining five sites through the rest of this year.

Starting in January 2024, the Israeli electricity sector shifted to a fully deregulated market. Enlight continues to expand its presence in this new commercial environment, signing two new corporate PPAs for an equivalent of capacity 50 MW.

Finally, in April 2024, the Company announced the formation of a new subsidiary named Enlight Local, based on the assets acquired from Aria at the end of last year. Enlight Local will focus on Israeli municipal and agri-solar customers, providing solar and storage infrastructure to this segment of our domestic market, a fast-growing area in which until now Enlight was not active.

Financing Arrangements

During the first quarter of 2024, Enlight achieved two financial closings for projects in Central Europe.

Project Pupin in Serbia: EBRD and Erste granted a $95m financing package for the construction of the Pupin wind project. It is structured as a fully amortizing 15-year term from the date of COD, with an interest margin of 3.1% to 3.5% above 3-month Euribor.
Projects Tapolca and AC/DC in Hungary: Raiffeisen Bank granted a $42m senior project financing facility for the construction of the Tapolca solar project, and the recycling of excess equity in AC/DC. The debt is structured with a 10-year tenor with a 25%-35% balloon payment at the end of the term coupled with an interest margin of 3.0% to 3.4% above 3-month Euribor.

The amount of capital raised last year places the Company in a favorable financial position for 2024, and the Company does not anticipate the need to raise equity for our expansion plan. We also note that sell downs of projects from within our pipeline – whether Mature, Advanced Development, or Early-Stage Development– are to become an increasingly important source of funding, which we intend cultivate further in both 2024 and the years ahead. The Company estimates it will generate capital gains of $15m from sell-downs, likely to be realized towards the end of this year. This figure is included in the Adjusted EBITDA portion of our 2024 financial outlook.

Balance Sheet

The Company maintains $325m of revolving credit facilities, none of which have been drawn as of the balance sheet date. These resources enhance our financial strength and provide additional flexibility to the Company as it delivers on its Mature Project portfolio.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ between $235m and $255m
90% of 2024's expected generation output will be sold at fixed prices either through hedges or PPAs.

1 The section titled "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" below contains a description of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure discussed in this press release. A reconciliation between Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income, its most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, is contained in the tables below. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort because items that impact this IFRS financial measure are not within the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. These items may include, but are not limited to, forward-looking depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, other income, finance income, finance expenses, share of losses of equity accounted investees and taxes on income. Such information may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on the Company's future financial results. We note that "Adjusted EBITDA" measures that we disclosed in previous filings in Israel were not comparable to "Adjusted EBITDA" disclosed in the release and in our future filings.

Supplemental Financial and Other Information

We intend to announce material information to the public through the Enlight investor relations website at https://enlightenergy.co.il/info/investors, SEC filings, press releases, public conference calls, and public webcasts. We use these channels to communicate with our investors, customers, and the public about our company, our offerings, and other issues. As such, we encourage investors, the media, and others to follow the channels listed above, and to review the information disclosed through such channels. Any updates to the list of disclosure channels through which we will announce information will be posted on the investor relations page of our website.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This release presents Adjusted EBITDA, a financial metric, which is provided as a complement to the results provided in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"). A reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial information to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is provided in the accompanying tables found at the end of this release.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, finance expenses, taxes on income and share in losses of equity accounted investees and minus finance income and non-recurring other income. Non-recurring other income for the first quarter of 2024 included income recognized in relation to the reduction of earnout we expect to pay as part of the Clenera Acquisition and other income recognized in relation to tax credits for projects in the United States. With respect to other expense (income), as part of Enlight's strategy to accelerate growth and reduce the need for equity financing, the Company sells parts of, or entire, developed assets from time to time, and therefore includes realized gains and losses from these asset dispositions in Adjusted EBITDA. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is indicative of operational performance and ongoing profitability and uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance and for planning and forecasting purposes.

Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial information presented under IFRS. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-IFRS financial measures versus comparable financial measures determined under IFRS. For example, other companies in our industry may calculate the non-IFRS financial measures that we use differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. All of these limitations could reduce the usefulness of our non-IFRS financial measures as analytical tools. Investors are encouraged to review the related IFRS financial measure, Net Income, and the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA provided below to Net Income and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
