Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global leader in microinverter-based solar and battery systems, has reported its financial results for the first quarter of 2025, showcasing notable milestones and strategic movements impacting its financial statements. The reported revenue for Q1 2025 was \(356.1 million, reflecting a 14.7% increase compared to \)311 million in the same quarter of the previous year (Q1 2024). This growth was primarily driven by expanding battery sales in Europe and continued U.S. manufacturing strength, despite a 13% sequential decline in U.S. revenue attributed to seasonal and demand softening dynamics.

The company’s non-GAAP gross margin stood at an impressive 48.9%, though it faced a dip from 53.2% in the prior quarter due to a shift in production tax credits and product mix. Excluding the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) benefits, the non-GAAP gross margin was 38.3%, providing a clearer depiction of operational efficiency.

Profitability metrics indicated a GAAP net income of \(29.7 million and a non-GAAP net income of \)89.2 million, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) of \(0.22 GAAP and \)0.68 non-GAAP. This marks a strong recovery compared to the Q1 2024 GAAP net loss of \(16.1 million and EPS of -\)0.12.

Enphase’s balance sheet remains robust, with cash and equivalents totaling \(415 million and marketable securities around \)1.12 billion as of March 31, 2025, giving the company strong liquidity to support growth initiatives and operational activities. Importantly, the company paid off its $102.2 million convertible senior notes maturing in March 2025, strengthening its debt position and reducing financial risk.

Operationally, the firm shipped approximately 1.53 million microinverters and 170.1 megawatt-hours of IQ Batteries during the quarter, with over 10,900 certified installers globally. This operational scale reflects continued market penetration and robust demand for advanced solar and energy storage solutions.

In terms of future outlook, Enphase projects Q2 2025 revenue between \(340 million to \)380 million, including 160 to 180 MWh of battery shipments. The company anticipates GAAP gross margins between 42% and 45%, factoring in net IRA benefits and new tariffs impacting costs by roughly two percentage points.

These results align with themes from Enphase’s previous earnings communications, where strategic focus on expanding battery sales in Europe and maximizing domestic content benefits under the IRA were emphasized. The continued ramp-up in U.S. manufacturing supports the firm’s competitive positioning, enhancing tax credit opportunities while navigating evolving global tariffs and supply chain challenges.

Enphase’s financial robustness and strategic initiatives position it well to capitalize on the growing global demand for sustainable energy technologies, leveraging its innovative microinverter and battery portfolio to drive shareholder value.
