2024 Guidance vs Actual Results

  • Reported Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 was 18% higher than the Company’s original guidance at the midpoint.

“We are proud to conclude 2024 with outstanding financial results that surpassed both our targets and analysts' forecasts,” said Gilad Yavetz, CEO of Enlight Renewable Energy.

“Enlight continues to grow thanks to its diversified and innovative operations, spanning three continents and employing the three main technologies of the industry: solar, wind, and energy storage.

“The year 2025 represents another leap forward for us, as a massive capacity of 4.7 FGW – with a total investment of $5.5bn – will be under various stages of construction. Together with the Company's operating portfolio, this will secure approximately 90% of the Company's ambitious growth plan: to reach operating capacity of 8.6 FGW by the end of 2027. This plan will bring Enlight to an annual revenue rate of over $1bn by 2028, tripling the business in just three years.

“We expect that the average return on equity for the vast asset portfolio that will become operational by 2027 will exceed 15%. Our three-year growth plan is already reflected in our 2025 guidance: we project revenues and income in the range of $490-510 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $360-380 million, a 25% increase.”
