MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
“Following a period of strong residential origination activity in the first quarter, demand conditions softened during the second quarter in several markets, including California, where consumers adapted to the NEM 3.0 transition,” stated Gaylon Morris, Chief Executive Officer of Sunworks. “Further, with the rise in interest rates, customers have contended with a higher overall cost of ownership, even though the long-term economics of solar remain highly favorable. These factors, together with utility approval delays in California, reduced our productivity during the second quarter, resulting in lower fixed cost absorption. In view of the current operating environment, we’ve taken decisive action to further right-size our cost structure, including a reduction in force. While the Residential business manages through this transitional period, our Commercial segment continues to execute well, while continuing to build a strengthening sales pipeline, which is supportive of a targeted return to positive free cash flow generation.”
