Summary of key financial results for 2Q25 and 1H25

Raising full year guidance ranges

• On the back of strong 1H25 results, we are increasing full year 2025 guidance ranges. Revenue guidance rises to $520-535 million from $490-510 million previously, and Adjusted EBITDA guidance rises to $385-400 million from $360-380 million previously. This represents a 5.5% and 6.0% increase at the midpoint for both metrics, respectively.

• A detailed analysis of financial results appears below.

Executive Leadership Changes

On October 1, 2025, Adi Leviatan will become the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Gilad Yavetz who was appointed as Enlight’s full-time Executive Chairman of the Board. Yair Seroussi, our current Chairman of the Board, will serve as Vice Chairman of the Board.

Positive and more certain environment across all geographies

We believe that the terms of the recently passed reconciliation bill are favorable for the utility scale solar and storage segments, providing the large companies such as Enlight a window of significant growth opportunities. This is especially significant for our extensive portfolio of energy storage projects, which received longer eligibility for tax credits in the new bill. Europe and MENA markets continue to grow, with strong demand to both renewable energy generation and energy storage.

The roadmap which we first presented in May has begun to take shape, and the Company is advancing toward the start of construction of an additional 2 to 4 FGW for COD by the end of 2028. These projects are not currently included in our mature portfolio. Of these, between 1 to 2 FGW are expected to be built in the U.S. By the end of 2028, the total annual revenue run rate is expected to reach $1.9-2.2 billion.

“We are very pleased with another quarter of extremely strong results in our financial and operational results,” said Gilad Yavetz, CEO of Enlight Renewable Energy. “The combination of strong execution, coupled with un-compromised business innovation, continues to bear fruit. In parallel we keep on strengthening our management infrastructure. We welcome Adi Leviatan to our strong and well-balanced leadership team. I’m honored and excited to take the role of executive chairman of the board as of October 1st. I’m confident that with Adi as the new CEO, Enlight will continue to break new grounds.”

Portfolio Review

This quarter we continued substantial advancement of projects through the various phases of our portfolio. Enlight’s total portfolio is comprised of 20.0 GW of generation capacity and 53.4 GWh energy storage (totaling 35.3 FGW³), an increase of 17% from the total portfolio of 30.2 FGW at the end of 2024. Of this, the Mature portfolio component (including operating projects, projects under construction or pre-construction) contains 6.2 GW generation capacity and 10.3 GWh of storage (9.2 FGW), an increase of 7% from the Mature portfolio of 8.6 FGW at the end of 2024. The full composition of the portfolio appears in the following table:

^{3 FGW (Factored GW) is a consolidated metric combining generation and storage capacity into a uniform figure based on the ratio of construction costs. The company’s current weighted average construction cost ratio is 3.5 GWh of storage per 1 GW of generation: FGW = GW + GWh / 3.5
4 Based on the midpoint of 2025 guidance.}

• Operating component of the portfolio: 3.1 FGW

  • During the second quarter, Bar-On floating PV and storage (67 FMW), located in Israel, entered into operation.

  • The operational portfolio generates annualized revenues and income of approximately $527 million, based on the midpoint rage of the 2025 guidance.
    

• Under Construction component of the portfolio: 2.9 FGW

  • Consists mostly of four projects in the U.S. with a total capacity of 2.5 FGW.

  • During the second quarter, Snowflake A (1.1 FGW), located in Arizona, entered into under construction status.

  • Projects under construction are expected to contribute ~$550m to the annual revenues and income run rate during their first full year of operation.
    

• Pre-construction component of the portfolio: 3.2 FGW

  • Significant new additions include Iftah HV (184 FMW), a stand alone storage project in Israel, and the expansion of the solar generation as well as the battery capacity at Nardo in Italy (192 FMW).

  • Pre-construction projects are expected to contribute ~$450m in revenues and income in their first full year of operations.

With the completion of the current Mature portfolio’s pre-construction and under construction projects, Enlight’s Mature portfolio operating capacity is expected to rise to 9.2 FGW and to generate an annualized revenue and income run rate of $1.5bn by 2028.

• Advanced Development component of the portfolio component: 6.0 FGW

  • 5.1 FGW in the U.S., with 100% of the capacity having passed completion of the System Impact Study. The advanced development portfolio also includes 0.5 FGW in Europe and 0.4 FGW in MENA.

• Development component of the portfolio: 20.1 FGW

  • 13.0 FGW in the U.S. with broad geographic presence, including the PJM, WECC, SPP and MISO regions. The development portfolio also includes 3.4 FGW in Europe and 3.7 FGW in MENA.

Roadmap to Revenues and Income Run-Rate of ~$2.0bn by 2028⁵

^{5 Expected Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 70%-80% for the years shown. FGW (Factored GW) is a consolidated metric combining generation and storage capacity into a uniform figure based on the ratio of construction costs. The company’s current weighted average construction cost ratio is 3.5 GWh of storage per 1 GW of generation: FGW = GW + GWh / 3.5. The expected growth in 2028 encompasses the Company’s operations in all geographies. Expected growth relies on business plans which rely on development conditions and assumptions regarding electricity prices, and are contingent on current trends known to the Company at this time. The company's revenues from tax benefits are estimated at approximately 20-24% of the total revenue run rate for December 2025; approximately 22-26% of the total revenue run rate for December 2026, and approximately 28-33% of the total revenue run rate for December 2027 and December 2028.}

Project and Corporate Finance

• During the quarter, the Company secured $310m in financial closings for the Gecama hybridization project in Spain, which will add 225 MW solar generation and 220 MWh of energy storage capacity to the existing 329 MW wind farm.

• As at the balance sheet date, the Company maintained $525m of credit facilities, of which $9m have been drawn. Cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet rose to $480m from $387m at the end of 2024. In addition, we have approximately $1bn of LC and surety bond facilities supporting our global expansion, of which half was available for use at end of the quarter.

2025 Guidance

Construction and commissioning

• Commencing construction on 4.8 FGW of capacity during 2025, (of which 2.9 FGW has already begun), and is expected to add approximately $827-869m in revenues and income run rate and approximately $726-763m in annualized EBITDA gradually through 2025-2028.

• Out of the 4.8 FGW, we expect commissioning of 0.8 FGW toward the end of 2025, which is expected to add approximately $142-150m to annualized revenues and income and $123-129m to annualized EBITDA.

Raising financial guidance ranges

• Total revenues and income⁶ for 2025 are now expected to range between $520m and $535m, up 5.5% at the midpoint from the previous range of $490m to $510m.

• Adjusted EBITDA⁷ for 2025 is expected to range between $385m and $400m, up 6% at the midpoint from the previous range of $360m to $380m.

• Approximately 90% of the electricity volumes expected to be generated in 2025 will be sold at fixed prices through PPAs or hedges.

Financial Results Analysis

^{6 Total revenues and income include revenues from the sale of electricity along with income from tax benefits from US projects amounting to $70m-$80m. 
7 EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of 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. Please refer to the reconciliation table in Appendix 2.}

Revenues & Income

In the second quarter of 2025, the Company’s total revenues and income increased to $135m, up from $88m last year, a growth rate of 53% year over year. This was composed of revenues from the sale of electricity, which rose 37% to $116m compared to $85m in the same period of 2024, as well as recognition of $19m in income from tax benefits, up 478% compared to $3m in 2Q24.

The Company benefited from the revenues and income contribution of newly operational projects. Since the second quarter of last year, 525 MW and 1,604 MWh of new projects were connected to the grid and began selling electricity, including three of the Israel Solar and Storage Cluster units in Israel, Atrisco in the U.S, Pupin in Serbia, and Tapolca in Hungary. The most important increases in revenue from the sale of electricity originated at Atrisco, which added $13m, followed by the Israel Solar and Storage Cluster, with $12m, while Pupin contributed $4m. In total, new projects contributed $30m to revenues from the sale of electricity. Recognition of tax benefit income increased by $16m due to the initial commissioning of Atrisco. Revenues and income for the quarter were distributed between MENA (40%); Europe (35%); and the US (25%).

Net Income

In the second quarter of 2025, the Company reported net income of $6 million, representing a 41% decrease from $9 million in the same period last year. This was primarily attributable to several factors: new projects contributed $15 million to net income, while a non-cash accounting reduction due to the impact of foreign exchange differentials on a dollar-denominated loan to a subsidiary resulted in a year-on-year decrease of $12 million. Additionally, other financial expenses increased by $8 million (all amounts stated after tax). Adjusting for the effects of foreign currency accounting reduction, net income amounted to $16m compared to $7m the same quarter last year, an increase of 110% year over year.

Adjusted EBITDA⁸

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA grew by 57% to $96m in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $61m for the same period in 2024. Of this increase, $50m was driven by the factors described above paragraphs. This was offset by an increase of $13m in COGS linked to the addition of new projects, and an increase of $3m in operating expenses.

^{8 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure. Please see the appendix of this presentation for a reconciliation to Net Income}

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 portions of other income, net. For the purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA, compensation for inadequate performance of goods and services procured by the Company are included in other income, net. Compensation for inadequate performance of goods and services reflects the profits the Company would have generated under regular operating conditions and is therefore included in Adjusted EBITDA. With respect to gains (losses) from asset disposals, as part of Enlight’s strategy to accelerate growth and reduce the need for equity financing, the Company sells parts of or the entirety of selected renewable project assets from time to time, and therefore includes realized gains or losses from these asset disposals in Adjusted EBITDA. In the case of partial assets disposals, Adjusted EBITDA includes only the actual consideration less the book value of the assets sold. 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.
