FTCI · FTC Solar, Inc.

FTC Solar reported Q1 2026 revenue of $17.3 million, a sequential decline of 47.5% and a year-over-year decline of 17.0%, reflecting typical seasonality and project timing. GAAP net income of $32.6 million was driven by a $48.7 million gain from the change in fair value of warrant liability, masking an underlying operating loss. On a non-GAAP basis, the company posted a gross loss of $0.4 million (2.2% margin) and an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $8.2 million, which was within the guided range of $(9.6) to $(5.9) million. Operating expenses on a non-GAAP basis were $7.8 million, below the guided range of $8.2-$8.9 million, indicating cost discipline. The company highlighted a new 1GW tracker award from a private equity-backed customer, with the first tranche contracted, contributing to a contracted backlog of approximately $543 million. Management expects Q1 to be the low point for revenue, with sequential growth in subsequent quarters and full-year 2026 revenue growth of approximately 40% versus 2025. Q2 guidance calls for revenue of $22-$26 million and Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(10.5) to $(7.4) million. The leadership transition to Anthony Carroll, a board member with deep renewables experience, signals a focus on scaling operations and value creation.
