Maryland Heights, Mo., Nov. 10, 2015 - /PRNewswire/ -- SunEdison, Inc. (NYSE: SUNE), the largest global renewable energy development company, today announced financial results for the 2015 third quarter.

Quarterly Review: 
SunEdison Development: Continued Organic Execution

2.9 GW of projects under construction, up 1.0 GW quarter-over-quarter
7.9 GW Pipeline and 5.5 GW Backlog, 0.4 GW of pipeline additions
Business Optimization: Reflection of Current Yieldco Conditions
Streamlined organization and global footprint
Opex improvements via economies of scale
TerraForm Power: Delivering Quarterly Execution
$71 million Q3 cash available for distribution, up 9% quarter-over-quarter
Raised dividend to $0.35 per share, $1.40 annualized
TerraForm Global: Operating Fleet of 677 MW at Quarter End

"During the third quarter, we continued our track record of execution within the development business by delivering over 600 MW, more than double versus the prior year.," said Ahmad Chatila, SunEdison chief executive officer.  "In addition, we made the difficult, but necessary decision to optimize our organization in the face of the current market conditions within the yieldco space.

Overview

We develop, finance, install, sell, own and operate wind and solar power plants, delivering predictably priced electricity to our residential, commercial, government and utility customers. In addition, we manufacture advanced renewable energy materials and technologies. The following discussion and analysis of SunEdison includes the consolidated results of TerraForm Power, Inc. ("TERP") and TerraForm Global, Inc. ("GLBL"), which are separate SEC registrants. Effective August 5, 2015, as a result of management reorganization effective upon the completion of the initial public offering of GLBL, we identified TerraForm Global as a new reportable segment. The results of TERP and GLBL are reported as our TerraForm Power and TerraForm Global reportable segments. The remainder of SunEdison's activities are reported in our Renewable Energy Development segment. On July 1, 2015, we effectively liquidated our investment in SunEdison Semiconductor. The Semiconductor Materials segment is no longer considered a reportable segment and we have reported the historical results of operations and financial position of SunEdison Semiconductor as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

Forward-Looking Statements
This communication may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, assumptions, known and unknown risks, and uncertainties and typically include words or variation of words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “goal,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “objective,” “forecast,” “target,” “potential,” “continue,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may” or other comparable terms and phrases. All statements that address operating performance, events, or developments that SunEdison expects or anticipates will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. They may include estimates of expected cash available for distribution (CAFD), earnings, revenues, capital expenditures, liquidity, capital structure, future growth, and other financial performance items (including future dividends per share), descriptions of management’s plans or objectives for future operations, products, or services, or descriptions of assumptions underlying any of the above. Forward-looking statements provide SunEdison’s current expectations or predictions of future conditions, events or results and speak only as of the date they are made. Although SunEdison believes its expectations and assumptions are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct and actual results may vary materially.

By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, delays or unexpected costs during the completion of projects under construction; regulatory requirements and incentives for production of renewable and solar power; operating and financial restrictions under agreements governing indebtedness; the condition of capital markets and our ability to borrow additional funds and access capital markets; the ability to compete against





traditional and renewable energy companies; challenges inherent in constructing and maintaining renewable energy projects; the success of ongoing research and development efforts; the ability to successfully integrate the businesses of acquired companies and realize the benefits of such acquisitions; and hazards customary to the power production industry and power generation operations, such as unusual weather conditions and outages. Furthermore, any dividends are subject to available capital, market conditions and compliance with associated laws and regulations. Many of these factors are beyond SunEdison’s control.

SunEdison disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions, factors, or expectations, new information, data, or methods, future events, or other changes, except as required by law. The foregoing list of factors that might cause results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements should be considered in connection with information regarding risks and uncertainties which are described in SunEdison’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, as well as additional factors it may describe from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and, consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Revenue from our sale-leaseback transactions accounted for as financings(2)

(1) On certain direct sales of renewable energy systems we are required to defer profit up to the amount of our maximum exposure for power warranties, system uptime guarantees and breach of contract provisions offered to the direct sale customers, as these contract provisions are considered continuing involvement by us in the sold renewable energy systems. This revenue is not recognized in the period in which the sale occurred under GAAP real estate accounting rules because the renewable energy systems are considered integral to the real estate on which they were built. Absent real estate accounting requirements, deferred revenues related to continuing involvement would be recognized under GAAP during the reporting period because we have historically experienced minimal losses related to these guarantees.
(2) For our sale-leaseback transactions accounted for as financings, we received cash at the transaction date for the legal sale of the solar energy system to the purchaser that was not recognized as revenue under GAAP real estate accounting rules due to the system being considered integral to the land or building on which it resides and because we have continuing involvement with the system through a purchase option. Instead, revenue from our sale-leaseback transactions is recognized through the sale of electricity and energy credits which are generated as energy is produced. Upon termination of the related lease through the non-cash extinguishment of the debt offset by any remaining net book value of the solar energy system asset, we will recognize a system development margin equal to the difference between (a) the cash proceeds from our financing partners in sale-leaseback transactions considered financings and (b) our total costs to construct the solar energy systems sold under the sale-leaseback transactions.

Supplemental Definitions
Adjusted EBITDA: A supplemental non-GAAP financial measure which eliminates the impact on net income of certain unusual or non-recurring items and other factors that we do not consider indicative of future operating performance. This measurement, which is used by TerraForm Power, Inc. and TerraForm Global, Inc., is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance, including net income. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance and debt service capabilities. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management for internal planning purposes and for analysis of performance. See the detailed definition and reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure in the respective press releases issued by TerraForm Power and TerraForm Global and furnished by them in their respective Form 8-Ks.

Adjusted Revenue: This measurement, which is used by TerraForm Power, Inc., is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance, including net income.  We define Adjusted Revenue as operating revenues, net adjusted for non-cash items including unrealized gain/loss on derivatives, amortization of favorable and unfavorable revenue contracts and other non-cash items. We believe Adjusted Revenue is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted Revenue is a non-GAAP measure used by our management for internal planning purposes, including for certain aspects of our consolidating operating budget. See the detailed definition and reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure in the press release issued by TerraForm Power and furnished in its Form 8-K.
Backlog: A project that qualifies for pipeline that has an associated executed PPA, other executed off-take agreement, such as a feed-in-tariff, or an un-executed, alternative energy off-take agreement (i.e. hedge) in advanced stages of negotiation and in a liquid market where the off-take agreement is readily available.
Cash Available for Distribution (CAFD): Net cash provided by operating activities as adjusted for certain other cash flow items that we associate with our operations. CAFD is a supplemental non-GAAP measure used by TerraForm Power, Inc and TerraForm Global, Inc. This measurement is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance, including net income, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other liquidity measure determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. We believe cash available for distribution is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. In addition, cash available for distribution is used by our management team for internal planning purposes and for analysis of performance. See the detailed definition and reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure in the respective press releases issued by TerraForm Power and TerraForm Global and furnished by them in their respective Form 8-Ks.
Delivered MW: The aggregate of Retained MW and 3rd Party Sales MW for the period.
Gross Annualized Unlevered CAFD: 12 months of post-completion project operating cash flow, calculated as project revenue, inclusive of cash received directly or indirectly due to governmental incentive programs (including but not limited to feed-in-tariffs, and sale or allocation of solar renewable energy credits, production tax credits, etc.), less project operating expenses but prior to interest payments for project level debt and payments to tax equity investors. Gross Annualized Unlevered CAFD is an operational measure that is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance, including net income, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other liquidity measure determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. We believe Gross Annualized Unlevered CAFD is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. In addition, Gross Annualized Unlevered CAFD is used by our management team for internal planning purposes and for analysis of performance.
Lead: An early stage project for which a potential customer or offtake has been identified.
MW: All references to watts (e.g., Megawatts, Gigawatts, MW, GW, etc.) refer to measurements of direct current, or “DC,” with respect to solar generation assets, and measurements of alternating current, or “AC,” with respect to wind generation assets. Represents the nameplate production capacity. Nameplate capacity for solar projects represents the maximum generating capacity at standard test conditions of a facility. Nameplate capacity for wind facilities represents the manufacturer’s maximum nameplate generating capacity of each turbine multiplied by the number of turbines at a facility.





Pipeline: A project with either a signed or awarded PPA or other energy offtake agreement or that has achieved each of the following three items: a) site control, b) an identified interconnection point with an estimate of the interconnection costs, and c) a determination that there is a reasonable likelihood that an energy offtake agreement will be signed.
Qualified Lead: A project with an identified customer or offtake and more clearly identified characteristics including but not limited to governmental program qualification and interconnection point.
Retained MW: Represents the number of MW for completed projects and percentage of completion for projects under construction during that period that are associated with the expected receipt of ongoing cash flow due to control or contract with SunEdison, a subsidiary, or affiliate.
Retained Annualized Unlevered CAFD:  Gross Annualized Unlevered CAFD associated with Retained MW. Retained Annualized Unlevered CAFD is an operational measure that is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance, including net income, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other liquidity measure determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. We believe Retained Annualized Unlevered CAFD is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. In addition, Retained Annualized Unlevered CAFD is used by our management team for internal planning purposes and for analysis of performance.
TERP Drops: Represents the number of MW for completed and operational projects that were dropped down to TerraForm during the period.
3rd Party Sales MW: Represents the number of MW for completed projects and percentage of completion for projects under construction during the period that will be sold to third parties. Also included are cash sales through channel partners including installations, kits, modules, solar water pumps, and other residential and small commercial equipment and system sales.
Under Construction: A project within pipeline and backlog, in various stages of completion, which is not yet operational.
