“Solid execution enabled us to substantially beat our plan every quarter this year,” said Tom Werner, SunPower president and CEO. “Demand remains strong in both our power plant and distributed generation businesses, and we are executing well in our manufacturing operations with all solar cell fabrication facilities (Fab) running at full capacity. Our technology and operations teams continue to drive down panel cost as we reduced our annual costs by more than 20 percent for the second year in a row. Additionally, our new 350-megawatt (MW) Fab remains on track and we expect first silicon production in less than 12 months.
“Regionally, North America was once again our strongest market. The 579-MW AC Solar Star projects for MidAmerican Solar reached a key milestone with the first 57-MW array segment delivering energy to the grid, and we achieved full commercial operation on the 250-MW AC California Valley Solar Ranch (CVSR), one of the world’s largest solar power plants completed to date. We also booked a 20-MW SunPower® C7 Tracker project in North America for delivery in 2015. This is an important milestone in the commercial scale-up of this exciting, new and low-cost power plant technology. We also continue to see
strong momentum in our North American residential business, with more than 20,500 leasing customers signed to date. Our recently announced $220 million lease capacity partnership with Bank of America ensures that we will have the resources available to continue to drive growth in this channel in 2014.
“We achieved our end of year profitability goal in the EMEA region as we benefited from increased revenue and margins due to a strong rebound in our rooftop business in Europe as well as the sale of one of our power plant projects.
“SunPower posted another strong quarter in Asia Pacific, with Japan accounting for 24 percent of total company shipments. Including the recent announcement of our seven-site, 20-MW supply agreement with Ecomax Japan Inc., we are supplying our industry leading solar panel technology to more than 110 MW of power plant projects in Japan. Combined with our significant share in the residential channel, we have an increasingly broad market footprint in this key market.
“Our partnership with Total is also facilitating expansion into a number of new solar markets worldwide. For example, final financing was secured for construction of the 70-MW merchant power plant in Chile and we were awarded an 86-MW power plant project in the most recent South Africa tender process. With a 6-gigawatt (GW) global pipeline, continued focus on the Middle East and our C7 tracker joint venture in China, we expect further international project announcements this year,” concluded Werner.
“SunPower delivered another strong quarter across all business segments as we exceeded our revenue and profit targets for the quarter and the year,” said Chuck Boynton, SunPower CFO. “Additionally, we strengthened our balance sheet while generating approximately $270 million in free cash flow in 2013 by prudently managing our working capital. We were also pleased to extend our relationship with Bank of America as their scalable, proven platform will help us drive continued growth in our residential lease channel. With the further monetization of our significant project pipeline, continued focus on expanding our global footprint and ability to optimize our cost and capital structure, we are well positioned to meet our goals for 2014.”
Fourth quarter fiscal 2013 GAAP results include net, pre-tax adjustments excluded from non-GAAP results which decrease net income by $48.0 million, including a $19.4 million gross margin adjustment related to the timing of revenue recognition from utility and power plant projects; $14.6 million in stock-based compensation expense; $12.6 million in non-cash interest expense and $1.4 million of other adjustments.
First Quarter and Fiscal Year 2014 Financial Outlook
The company’s first quarter 2014 consolidated non-GAAP guidance is as follows: revenue of $650 million to $700 million, gross margin of 18 percent to 20 percent, net income per diluted share of $0.25 to $0.40 and MW recognized in the range of 320 MW to 350 MW. On a GAAP basis, the company expects revenue of $575 million to $625 million, gross margin of 18 percent to 20 percent and net income per diluted share of $0.10 to $0.25.
For fiscal year 2014, the company expects non-GAAP revenue of $2.4 billion to $2.6 billion, gross margin of 19 percent to 21 percent, net income per diluted share of $1.00 to $1.30, capital expenditures of $150 million to $170 million and GW recognized in the range of 1.15 GW to 1.25 GW. On a GAAP basis, the company expects revenue of $2.45 billion to $2.65 billion, gross margin of 20 percent to 22 percent and net income per diluted share of $0.65 to $0.95.

About SunPower's Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, SunPower uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results for certain items, as described below. Management does not consider these items in evaluating the core operational activities of SunPower. The specific non-GAAP measures listed below are gross margin, operating income (loss), net income (loss) per share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and free cash flow. Management believes that each of these non-GAAP measures (gross margin, operating income (loss), net income (loss) per share, EBITDA and free cash flow) are useful to investors by enabling them to better assess changes in each of these key elements of SunPower's results of operations across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of certain items as described below. Thus, each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with another method for assessing SunPower's operating results in a manner that is focused on its ongoing core operating performance, absent the effects of these items. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures internally to assess the business and financial performance of current and historical results, for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating the company's current performance. Many of the analysts covering SunPower also use these non-GAAP measures in their analyses. Given management's use of these non-GAAP measures, SunPower believes these measures are important to investors in understanding SunPower's current and future operating results as seen through the eyes of management. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP financial data, the non-GAAP measures should be reviewed together with the GAAP measures and are not intended to serve as a substitute for results under GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
• | Non-GAAP gross margin. The use of this non-GAAP financial measure allows management to evaluate the gross margin of SunPower's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of charges including gain on contract termination, stockbased compensation, non-cash interest expense and other items as described below. In addition, the presentation of non-GAAP gross margin includes the revenue recognition of utility and power plant projects on a non-GAAP basis. This non-GAAP financial measure is an important component of management's internal performance measurement process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to evaluate SunPower's revenue generation performance relative to the direct costs of revenue of its core businesses. |
• | Non-GAAP operating income (loss). The use of this non-GAAP financial measure allows management to evaluate the operating results of SunPower's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of charges including gain on contract termination, stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, restructuring charges, and other items as described below. In addition, the presentation of non-GAAP operating income (loss) includes the revenue recognition of utility and power plant projects on a non-GAAP basis. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) is an important component of management's internal performance measurement process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to understand the results of operations of SunPower's core businesses and to compare results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in the industry. |
• | Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to assess SunPower's operating results and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of items including gain on contract termination, stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, restructuring charges, other items as described below, and the tax effects of these non-GAAP adjustments. In addition, the presentation of non-GAAP net income (loss) includes the revenue recognition of utility and power plant projects on a non-GAAP basis. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to compare SunPower's operating results on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in the industry. |
• | EBITDA. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to assess SunPower’s operating results and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of items including gain on contract termination, stock-based compensation, noncash interest expense, restructuring charges, cash interest expense, net of interest income, provision for income taxes, depreciation, and other items as described below. In addition, the presentation of EBITDA includes the revenue recognition of utility and power plant projects on a non-GAAP basis. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to compare SunPower’s operating results on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in the industry. |
• | Free cash flow. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to assess SunPower’s operating results and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, inclusive of lease |
financing as described below. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to compare SunPower’s operating results on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in the industry.
Included items
• | Utility and power plant projects. The company includes adjustments to non-GAAP revenue and non-GAAP cost of revenue related to the utility and power plant projects based on the separately identifiable components of the transactions in order to reflect the substance of the transactions. Such treatment is consistent with accounting rules under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). On a GAAP basis, such revenue and costs of revenue are accounted for under U.S. GAAP real estate accounting guidance. Management calculates separate revenue and cost of revenue amounts each fiscal period in accordance with the two treatments above and the aggregate difference for the company’s affected projects is included in the relevant reconciliation tables below. Over the life of each project, cumulative revenue and gross margin will be equivalent between the two treatments; however, revenue and gross margin will generally be recognized earlier under the company’s non-GAAP treatment than under the company’s GAAP treatment. Among other factors, this is due to the attribution of non-GAAP revenue and margin to the company’s project development efforts at the time of initial project sale as required under IFRS accounting rules whereas no separate attribution to this element occurs under U.S. GAAP real estate accounting guidance. Within each project, the relationship between the adjustments to revenue and gross margins are generally consistent. However, as the company may have multiple utility and power plant projects in progress at any given time, the relationship in the aggregate will occasionally appear otherwise. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to evaluate SunPower's revenue generation performance relative to the direct costs of revenue of its core businesses. |
• | Free cash flow adjustments. Specifically to calculate free cash flow, the company includes the impact during the period of the following items: |
• | Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities |
• | Proceeds from residential lease financing |
• | Proceeds from sale-leaseback financing |
• | Contributions from noncontrolling interests |
• | Distributions to noncontrolling interests |
• | Repayment of sale-leaseback financing |
Excluded Items
• | Gain on contract termination. During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, SunPower agreed to terminate a contract with one of the company’s suppliers. As a result, SunPower recorded a gain associated with the non-cash forfeiture of a previously recorded advance from the supplier. As this gain is nonrecurring in nature, excluding this data provides investors with a basis to compare the company's performance against the performance of other companies without similar impacts. |
• | Stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation relates primarily to SunPower stock awards such as restricted stock. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are difficult to predict. As a result of this unpredictability, management excludes this item from its internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that non-GAAP measures adjusted for stock-based compensation provide investors with a basis to measure the company's core performance against the performance of other companies without the variability created by stock-based compensation. |
• | Non-cash interest expense. SunPower separately accounted for the fair value liabilities of the embedded cash conversion option and the over-allotment option on its 4.5% senior cash convertible debentures issued in 2010 as an original issue discount and a corresponding derivative conversion liability. As a result, SunPower incurs interest expense that is substantially higher than interest payable on its 4.5% senior cash convertible debentures. SunPower excludes non-cash interest expense because the expense is not reflective of its ongoing financial results in the period incurred. In addition, in connection with the Liquidity Support Agreement with Total executed on February 28, 2012, the company issued warrants to Total to acquire 9,531,677 shares of its common stock. The fair value of the warrants is recorded as debt issuance costs and amortized over the expected life of the agreement. As a result, SunPower incurs non-cash interest expense associated with the amortization of the warrants. Excluding this data provides investors with a basis to compare the company's performance against the performance of other companies without non-cash interest expense. |
• | Restructuring charges. In October 2012, the company’s Board of Directors approved a reorganization to accelerate operating cost reduction and improve overall operating efficiency (the October 2012 Restructuring Plan). Restructuring charges are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are not considered core operating activities and such costs have historically occurred infrequently. Although SunPower has engaged in restructuring activities in the past, each has been a discrete event based on a unique set of business objectives. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to exclude restructuring charges from SunPower's non-GAAP financial measures as they are not reflective of ongoing operating results or contribute to a meaningful evaluation of a company's past operating performance. |
• | Other. Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2013 the company has combined amounts previously disclosed under separate captions. These amounts were previously disclosed under one of the following captions: |
• | Goodwill and other intangible asset impairment |
• | Amortization of intangible assets |
• | Restructuring charges (related to actions prior to the October 2012 Restructuring Plan) |
• | Charges on manufacturing step reduction plan |
• | Non-recurring idle equipment impairment |
• | Class action settlement |
• | Acquisition and integration costs |
• | Change in European government incentives |
• | Gain (loss) on mark-to-market derivative instruments |
• | Gain on share lending arrangement |
• | Gain on sale of equity interest in unconsolidated investee |
The adjustments recorded in “Other” for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 are primarily driven by adjustments which would have previously been disclosed under “Restructuring charges.”
• | Tax effect. This amount is used to present each of the amounts described above on an after-tax basis with the presentation of non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. The company's non-GAAP tax amount is based on estimated cash tax expense and reserves. This approach is designed to enhance the ability of investors to understand the company's tax expense on its current operations, provide improved modeling accuracy, and substantially reduce fluctuations caused by GAAP to non-GAAP adjustments which may not reflect actual cash tax expense. The company forecasts its annual cash tax liability and allocates the tax to each quarter in proportion to earnings for that period. |
• | EBITDA adjustments. Specifically to calculate EBITDA, in addition to adjustments previously described above, the company excludes the impact during the period of the following items: |
• | Cash interest expense, net of interest income |
• | Provision for income taxes |
• | Depreciation |
