T1 Energy Inc. (NYSE:TE) ("T1" or the "Company") reported financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2024 today.

Headlines

Production ramp at G1 Dallas ahead of plan. The ongoing ramp of production at T1's state-of-the-art U.S. solar module manufacturing facility, G1 Dallas, is proceeding ahead of schedule. During January and February 2025, total module production of more than 220 MW exceeded plan by 48%. T1's teams have now installed and commissioned four utility-scale production lines that are producing a mix of PERC and TOPCon modules. G1 Dallas is currently on track to achieve the Company's 2025 production target of 3.4 Gigawatt ("GW").

T1 selects Milam County, Texas for planned 5 GW U.S. solar cell manufacturing facility ("G2 Austin"). T1 has executed a lease and purchase option for 100 acres in Milam County, Texas, in the Advanced Manufacturing and Logistix Campus at Sandow Lakes. G2 Austin is expected to be one of the largest solar manufacturing facilities in the U.S., with a capital investment of up to $850 million, and is projected to create up to 1,800 new direct American advanced manufacturing jobs, contingent upon successful completion of agreements for both state and local incentives.

"The fourth quarter and subsequent start of 2025 have been punctuated by our strategic repositioning as T1 Energy," commented Daniel Barcelo, T1's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. "Having completed a transformative acquisition on an accelerated timeline, we are now focusing on the next phases of our plan to become an American, vertically integrated solar + battery storage leader. Our teams are making impressive progress with the ramp of U.S. solar module production at G1 Dallas, we are moving forward swiftly with project development of our planned G2 Austin U.S. solar cell facility, and we are executing our global corporate transformation to build a cash flow powerhouse. As we look forward to 2025 and beyond, we are excited about the growth prospects for the U.S. solar + battery storage market, and we are focused on establishing T1 as an engine of American energy, jobs, and advanced manufacturing."

Highlights of the Fourth Quarter 2024 and Subsequent Events

Announced transformative acquisition of Trina Solar's U.S. solar manufacturing assets. On November 6, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire the U.S. manufacturing assets of Trina Solar Co Ltd. (SHA: 688599) ("Trina") for total consideration of $621 million. The transaction included the acquisition of a 5 GW, 1.35 million square foot solar module manufacturing facility in Wilmer, TX, which T1 subsequently named "G1 Dallas," that started production on November 1, 2024.

Achieved accelerated close of Trina acquisition. On December 24, 2024, T1 announced that the Company closed the transformative acquisition of Trina's U.S. solar manufacturing assets in accordance with previously communicated timelines.

T1 achieves first commercial sales volumes from G1 Dallas. T1 reached a corporate milestone by generating its first commercial sales in Q4 2024 from G1 Dallas. For the short stub period in Q4 2024 after the close of the transaction, the Company recorded revenues of $2.9 million and a gross profit of $1.2 million.

Unveiled global corporate rebranding as T1 Energy and selected Austin, Texas as global headquarters. In February of this year, T1 launched a comprehensive global rebrand that included a new company name (formerly FREYR Battery, Inc.), corporate logo, a fresh visual identity, and a ticker symbol change. The T1 brand and the selection of Austin, Texas as the Company's corporate headquarters align with T1's rebirth as a company focused on delivering American energy, jobs, and advanced manufacturing.

Announced and completed sale of Coweta County Site in Georgia. In conjunction with T1's relocation to Texas and strategic mandate to harvest value from non-core assets, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its 268-acre site in Coweta County, Georgia to an undisclosed party for gross sales proceeds of $50 million. The transaction closed on February 14, 2025, and generated net proceeds to T1 of $22.5 million following repayment of previously received state and local grants.

T1 and Trina have filed a joint voluntary notice with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CFIUS") and the CFIUS process is ongoing. CFIUS approval of the transaction is a pre-cursor to achieving the first share conversion detailed in T1's November 2024 transaction announcement.

Investing in American advanced manufacturing at G2 Austin. G2 Austin is T1's third major investment in Texas, America's #1 energy producer and a national leader in the solar space. With the addition of G2 Austin to G1 Dallas and T1's new global corporate headquarters in Austin, the Company's three facilities, all of which are located in the Texas Triangle, represent a combined investment of more than $1.1 billion. Texas' commitment to business growth and its strong and robust workforce makes it an ideal location for T1 to create more than 3,000+ direct jobs in less than three years.

"Adding solar cell manufacturing is foundational to building out T1's American supply chain. We are excited to take that next step right here in Texas, where the state's leadership and business community has continued to develop the infrastructure, talent, and business climate necessary to support this project," said Daniel Barcelo, T1's CEO and Chairman of the Board. "We are grateful for the support we have received from the Wilmer, Austin, and Milam County communities and look forward to continuing to partner together moving forward."

Business Outlook and Guidance

No changes to 2025 financial and operating guidance. There are no changes to 2025 financial and operating guidance of $75 - $125 million estimated full-year 2025 EBITDA based on projected 2025 module production of 3.4 GW at G1 Dallas. In addition, there are no changes to projected EBITDA ranges of $175 - $225 million of annual run rate EBITDA based on optimized G1 Dallas production, and the $650 - $750 million annual run-rate EBITDA estimate based on optimized production at G1 Dallas and G2 Austin.

Update on European Portfolio Optimization. T1 is committed to generating value from non-core assets and rationalizing costs from discontinued operations. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified its European operations as Discontinued Operations and has retained a financial advisor to support potential non-core asset sales. In addition, T1 has classified non-core assets including Giga Arctic and the Customer Qualification Plant ("CQP") as Held for Sale and recorded a $312.9 million non-cash valuation charge. As of December 31, 2024, the Company determined the fair values less the cost of potential sales of Giga Arctic and the CQP to be $37.5 million and $5.6 million, respectively, offset by historical currency adjustments.
