Third Quarter 2021 Financial and Operating Results

Financial Results

Third quarter revenue increased 334% to a record $39.8 million, versus $9.2 million in the same quarter last year. Higher hardware revenue from Front of the Meter ("FTM") and Behind the Meter ("BTM") partnership agreements drove most of the year-over-year increase, in addition to higher services revenue driven by increased adoption of the Athena platform.

Gross Margin (GAAP) was $3.1 million, or 8%, versus $(1.7) million, or (19)% in the same quarter last year and $(0.1) million, or (1)%, in the second quarter of 2021. This represents Stem's first ever quarter of positive Gross Margin (GAAP). Non-GAAP Gross Margin was $5.8 million or 15% versus $0.7 million or 8% in the same quarter last year, and $2.1 million, or 11%, in the second quarter of 2021. The year-over-year increases in margins resulted from an increased mix of software service revenues and higher-margin hardware deliveries.

Net Income was $115.6 million versus Net Loss of $(18.8) million in the same quarter last year and $(100.2) million in the second quarter of 2021. Third quarter net income was primarily driven by a $137 million non-cash revaluation of warrants in the quarter, tied to changes in the value of the underlying common stock, offset by higher operating expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA was $(7.2) million compared to $(7.9) million in the same quarter last year and $(8.5) million in the second quarter of 2021. The improved Adjusted EBITDA results were primarily driven by higher gross margins, partially offset by higher operating expenses due to increased personnel costs reflecting continued investment in our growth initiatives.

The Company ended the third quarter with $576 million in cash, consisting of $405 million in cash and cash equivalents and $171 million in short-term investments, and no debt. The sequential increase from $474 million in cash and cash equivalents at the end of second quarter 2021 was primarily the result of the exercise of approximately 12.6 million Public Warrants.

Operating Results

The Company's 12-month forward Pipeline was $2.4 billion as of September 30, 2021, compared to $1.7 billion on June 30, 2021, representing 41% sequential growth. The increase in the 12-month pipeline is a result of increased FTM project opportunities, including significant expansions into new markets, continued growth in Stem's partner channel, and the seasonal nature of the pipeline.

Contracted Backlog was $312 million at the end of the quarter compared to $250 million at the end of the second quarter, representing a 25% sequential increase. The increase in Contracted Backlog resulted from record bookings in the quarter of $104 million. Bookings grew 183% year-over-year from $37 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and grew 130% from $45 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Year-to-Date bookings of $200 million already exceed full-year 2020 bookings of $138 million (+45%).

Contracted AUM increased 40% year-over-year and 17% sequentially to 1.4 GWh, driven by an increase in new contracts and new systems that became operational.

The following table provides a summary of current backlog compared to prior quarter backlog:

$ millions

Period ending 2Q21		$250
Add: Bookings		$104
Less: Revenue		($40)
Other		$(2)
Period ending 3Q21		$312

The Company will continue to diversify its supply chain, adopt alternative technologies, and deploy its balance sheet to meet the expected significant growth in customer demand. COVID-19 continues to impact the supply chain and the Company is actively working to mitigate any continued effects of the pandemic on its business and results of operations.

Business Highlights

On October 5, 2021, Stem announced two advanced application additions to Athena: (1) Athena Supervisor^TM, which provides real-time visibility into how Athena manages and monetizes energy assets, and (2) Athena Bidder^TM, which automates asset strategies to maximize wholesale market revenues. These applications enable the Company's project developer customers to meet resource adequacy requirements, optimize wholesale market revenue, and participate in wholesale energy markets. Stem also highlighted three recent customer projects in the Independent System Operator of New England (ISO-NE) market that can co-optimize seven value streams: day-ahead markets, real-time energy markets, frequency regulation, capacity market, coincident peak reduction, solar shifting incentives, and solar ITC earnings.

On September 15, 2021, Stem announced the development of South America's first virtual power plant (VPP) with Copec, one of the largest energy companies in Central and South America, as well as the completion of their first smart energy storage system in Chile. The companies will be working together with Chilquinta Energía S.A., a local energy supply service company, to establish the first VPP, a network of decentralized BTM power generating sites. For this project, Stem's Athena has been customized to integrate utility and grid market data points that optimize energy storage assets in the Chilean market. This partnership also involves future collaboration to bring smart energy storage alongside mutual business activities in electric vehicle charging infrastructures and solar project developments.

On August 30, 2021, Stem announced a pilot using Athena to operate a 350 kW / 800 kWh battery system at Penske's heavy-duty truck charging positions in Ontario, California. Athena predicts when the charging site's electricity demand will spike and uses the supplemental stored energy via on-site batteries at the optimal time to drive off-peak electricity savings and minimize utility peak demand charges. Since starting the pilot, smart energy storage has driven a 40% decrease in Penske's site peak energy consumption. Stem collaborated with Penske and its other suppliers in project execution, including optimizing energy tariffs, utilizing energy storage to secure funds from California Air Quality Resources (CARB) as well as securing incentives from California's Self Generation Incentive Program (SGIP).

On August 20, 2021, Stem announced the redemption of all 12.8 million public warrants outstanding. Holders exercised 12.6 million warrants for a purchase price of $11.50 per whole share, generating proceeds to Stem of approximately $145 million. The Company redeemed all remaining outstanding public warrants. The public warrants have been delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, and there are no public warrants left outstanding.

Outlook

The Company reaffirms its guidance of full-year 2021 revenue of $147 million and full-year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA of $(25) million. Consistent with prior guidance, the Company reaffirms that it expects to recognize 50-60% of total 2021 revenue in Q4. The Company expects to provide 2022 guidance in its fourth quarter/full year 2021 earnings call in mid-to-late February 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. See "Reconciliations of non-GAAP Financial Measures" on page 9 of this release.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate our operating performance and future prospects, develop internal budgets and financial goals, and to facilitate period-to-period comparisons. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures that may not be indicative of our operating performance, such as stock-based compensation and other non-cash charges, as well as discrete cash charges that are infrequent in nature. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity as well as comparisons to our competitors' operating results, to the extent that competitors define these metrics in the same manner that we do. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because they (1) allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making and (2) are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of our business.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before depreciation and amortization, including amortization of internally developed software, net interest expense, further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation and other income and expense items, including the change in fair value of warrants and embedded derivatives.

We define non-GAAP gross margin as gross margin excluding amortization of capitalized software, impairments related to decommissioning of end-of-life systems, and adjustments to reclassify data communication and cloud production expenses to operating expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA as used in connection with the Company's 2021 outlook is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or has otherwise been adjusted for items impacting comparability. The Company is unable to reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable efforts, because the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty its change in fair value of warrants expense for 2021. In addition, the Company may incur additional expenses that may affect Adjusted EBITDA, such as stock-based compensation expense and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant effect on the Company's full year 2021 GAAP financial results.

The following table provides a reconciliation of gross margin (GAAP) to non-GAAP gross margin ($ in millions, except for percentages):
