SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

competition from other wind blade and wind blade turbine manufacturers;
the discovery of defects in our products and our ability to estimate the future cost of warranty campaigns;
the current status of the wind energy market and our addressable market;
our ability to absorb or mitigate the impact of price increases in resin, carbon reinforcements (or fiber), other raw materials and related logistics costs that we use to produce our products;
our ability to absorb or mitigate the impact of wage inflation in the countries in which we operate;
our ability to procure adequate supplies of raw materials and components to fulfill our wind blade volume commitments to our customers;
the potential impact of the increasing prevalence of auction based tenders in the wind energy market and increased competition from solar energy on our gross margins and overall financial performance;
our future financial performance, including our net sales, cost of goods sold, gross profit or gross margin, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash flow and ability to achieve or maintain profitability;
changes in domestic or international government or regulatory policy, including without limitation, changes in trade policy and energy policy;
changes in global economic trends and uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and demand or supply disruptions from global events;
changes in macroeconomic and market conditions, including the potential impact of any pandemic, risk of recession, inflation, supply chain constraints, commodity prices and exchange rates, and the impact of such changes on our business and results of operations;
the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents to meet our liquidity needs;
our ability to attract and retain customers for our products, and to optimize product pricing;
our ability to effectively manage our growth strategy and future expenses, including our startup and transition costs;
our ability to successfully expand in our existing wind energy markets and into new international wind energy markets, including our ability to expand our field service inspection and repair services business and manufacture wind blades for offshore wind energy projects;
our ability to keep up with market changes and innovations;
our ability to successfully open new manufacturing facilities and expand existing facilities on time and on budget;
the impact of the pace of new product and wind blade model introductions on our business and our results of operations;
our ability to successfully expand our automotive business and execute upon our strategy of entering new markets outside of wind energy;
our ability to maintain, protect and enhance our intellectual property;
our ability to comply with existing, modified or new laws and regulations applying to our business, including the imposition of new taxes, duties or similar assessments on our products;
the attraction and retention of qualified associates and key personnel;

2


 

our ability to maintain good working relationships with our associates, and avoid labor disruptions, strikes and other disputes with labor unions that represent certain of our associates; and
the potential impact of one or more of our customers becoming bankrupt or insolvent, or experiencing other financial problems.

These forward-looking statements are only predictions. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to materially differ from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. We have described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 22, 2023 the principal risks and uncertainties that we believe could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as guarantees of future events.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or developments after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make.

Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies

Functional Currency Change from Turkish Lira to Euro for the Company’s Turkish operations.

Effective January 1, 2022, the functional currency for our operations in Türkiye changed from the Turkish Lira to the Euro. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into Euros at the rate in effect on the date of the asset's or liability’s inception and then translated into reporting currency based on the current exchange rate. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into Euros at the rate in effect on the date of change and then translated into reporting currency based on the current exchange rate. The difference between the historical basis of nonmonetary assets and liabilities and the new basis of $44.9 million (increase in net assets) was recorded in the currency translation adjustment account. The amount recorded in the currency translation adjustment account for prior periods was not reversed upon the change in functional currency. The majority of the initial impact of the functional currency change was to property, plant and equipment and operating lease right of use assets with an offset to the currency translation adjustment account. See Note 1(b) to our Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for further information on the functional currency change for our operations in Türkiye.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by the SEC. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of our management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at March 31, 2023, and the results of our operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TPI Composites, Inc. and all of our majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

References to TPI Composites, Inc, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” in these notes refer to TPI Composites, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Supplier Finance Programs

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50), which requires the disclosure of the key terms of outstanding supplier finance programs and a roll forward of the related obligations. The new standard does not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2023, except for the roll forward requirement, which becomes effective January 1, 2024, and it did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has determined that no other recent accounting pronouncements apply to our operations or could otherwise have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Discontinued Operations

In December 2022, the Company committed to a restructuring plan to rebalance our organization and optimize our global manufacturing footprint. Changing economic and geopolitical factors, including increased logistics costs and tariffs imposed on components of wind turbines from China, including wind blades, has had an adverse impact on demand for our wind blades manufactured in our Chinese facilities. In connection with our restructuring plan, we ceased production at our Yangzhou, China manufacturing facility as of December 31, 2022 and plan to shut down our business operations in China in the next 12 months. Our business operations in China comprised the entirety of our Asia reporting segment. This shut down will have a meaningful effect on our global manufacturing footprint and consolidated financial results. Accordingly, the historical results of our Asia reporting segment have been presented as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets consist of the amount of revenue recognized over time for performance obligations in production where control has transferred to the customer but the contract does not yet allow for the customer to be billed. Typically, customers are billed when the product finishes production and meets the technical specifications contained in the contract. The majority of the contract asset balance relates to materials procured based on customer specifications. The contract assets are recorded as current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments in excess of revenue earned. The contract liabilities are recorded as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are reduced as we record revenue over time.

These contract assets and liabilities are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets net on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

Contract assets and contract liabilities consisted of the following:

Contract assets increased by $18.0 million from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023 due to an increase in unbilled production during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Contract liabilities, net of the amounts reclassed to contract assets decreased by $17.1 million from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized $17.1 million of revenue related to customer advances, which was included in the corresponding contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price for which work has not been performed and excludes any unexercised contract options. The transaction price includes estimated variable consideration as determined based on the estimated production output within the range of the contractual guaranteed minimum volume obligations and production capacity.

As of March 31, 2023, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations to be satisfied in future periods was approximately $1.3 billion. This total transaction price excludes approximately $22.5 million of variable consideration related to one of our customer supply agreements, which has been constrained primarily due to uncertainty associated with production volume during the remaining term. Had the variable consideration not been constrained, approximately $9.7 million of the $22.5 million revenue would have been recognized as of March 31, 2023. We estimate the constraint will be resolved in subsequent periods when our customer provides additional information relevant to forecasted future production. We estimate that we will recognize the remaining performance obligations as revenue as follows:

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net revenue recognized from our performance obligations satisfied in previous periods decreased by $4.3 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net revenue recognized from our performance obligations satisfied in previous periods decreased by $6.6 million. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily relates to changes in certain of our estimated total contract values and related direct costs to complete the performance obligations.

Note 5. Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Our revenues and receivables are earned from a small number of customers. As such, our production levels are dependent on these customers’ orders. See Note 16, Concentration of Customers.

The current geopolitical situation, and economic environment, including with respect to inflation, continue to evolve and affect supply chain performance and underlying assumptions in various ways – specifically with volatility in commodity, energy, and logistics costs. If the prices for these commodities, energy, and logistics costs increase substantially, such elevated price levels could have a material impact on our results of operations.

In January 2024, we will be required to start paying dividends quarterly in cash to the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock ("the Series A Preferred Stockholders").

In August 2022, the United States (U.S.) Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) which effectively extended the Production Tax Credit (PTC) until the later of 2032 or when greenhouse gas emissions have been reduced by 75% compared to 2022. In addition, a new advanced manufacturing production tax credit (AMPC) was created that can be claimed for the domestic production and sale of clean energy components, such as wind turbine blades. Although we are encouraged by the passing of the IRA and the expected long-term incentive certainty that the IRA provides in the U.S. market, the wind industry is waiting on guidance from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and U.S. Treasury Department, among others, to define and clarify the implementation of this complex legislation.

We are also encouraged by the policy initiatives in the European Union (EU) and are closely watching the pace of implementation to drive their intended benefits for the wind industry. We expect 2023 to be a transition year while the industry awaits clarity around more robust policies in the EU. These policies include the Green Deal Industrial Plan that is expected to accelerate the expansion of renewable energy and green technologies, while building on previous initiatives such as the European Green Deal and REPowerEU. A key component of the Green Deal Industrial Plan is the Net-Zero Industry Act to simplify regulations, speed up permits and promote cross-border projects to accelerate climate neutrality. As the majority of our blades are installed in the U.S. and the EU, these policy trends are expected to have a material impact on our business and the pace of long-term revenue growth.

We maintain our U.S. cash in bank deposit and money market mutual fund accounts that, at times, exceed U.S. federally insured limits. U.S. bank accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in an amount up to $250,000 during 2023 and 2022. U.S. money market mutual fund accounts are not guaranteed by the FDIC. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $146.4 million and $124.4 million, respectively, of cash in bank deposit and money market mutual fund accounts in U.S. banks, which were in excess of FDIC limits. We have not experienced losses in any such accounts.

We also maintain cash in bank deposit accounts outside the U.S. with no insurance. At March 31, 2023, this included $13.9 million in Türkiye, $1.8 million in India, $1.0 million in Mexico and $1.1 million in other countries. As of December 31, 2022, this included $2.4 million in Türkiye, $4.7 million in India, $1.4 million in Mexico and $0.7 million in other countries. We have not experienced losses in these accounts. In addition, at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had short-term deposits in interest bearing accounts in the U.S. of $8.8 million and $9.9 million, respectively, which are reported as restricted cash in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents related to our discontinued operations of $1.4 million and $9.7 million, respectively.

Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes:

Convertible Notes and Indenture

In March 2023, we issued and sold an aggregate of $132.5 million principal amount of convertible senior unsecured notes due in 2028 (the Notes) in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). The Notes consisted of a $115.0 million initial placement and an over-allotment option that provided the initial purchasers an option to purchase an additional $17.5 million principal amount of Notes, which was fully exercised. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes was $109.1 million, net of $4.8 million in debt issuance costs and $18.6 million in cash used to purchase the capped call transactions discussed below. The debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes.

The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated March 3, 2023 (the Indenture), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The Indenture includes customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the Notes become automatically due and payable. The Notes do not contain any specific financial covenants.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.25% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2023. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2028, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased.

The Notes are convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Common Stock) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election, at an initial conversion rate of 66.5425 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $15.03 per share of Common Stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Before September 15, 2027, noteholders will have the right to convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amounts, only under the following circumstances:

during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2023, if the last reported sale price of our Common Stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price of the Notes on each such trading day;
during the five business day period immediately after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each day of five consecutive trading day period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our Common Stock and the applicable conversion rate of the Notes on such trading day;
on a notice of redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, in which case we may be required to increase the conversion rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion in connection with such redemption notice; or
on the occurrence of specified corporate events.

On or after September 15, 2027, the Notes are convertible at the option of the noteholders at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date.

The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to March 20, 2026. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at its option, on or after March 20, 2026 and prior to the 51st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes, which means that the Company is not required to redeem or retire the Notes periodically.

We accounted for the issuance of the Notes as a single liability measured at its amortized cost, as no other embedded features require bifurcation and recognition as derivatives.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Series A Preferred Stockholders agreed to waive compliance with all covenants under the Certificate of Designations with respect to the Company’s sale and issuance of the Notes and the Company’s planned capital expenditures and incurrence of additional indebtedness of up to $17.0 million to acquire wind turbines that will provide renewable energy for our manufacturing facilities in Türkiye.

 

Capped Call Transactions

On February 28, 2023, in connection with the pricing of the Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the Base Capped Call Transactions) with certain initial purchasers of the Notes or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions (the Option Counterparties). On March 1, 2023, in connection with the initial purchasers’ exercise of their option to purchase additional Notes, the Company entered into additional privately negotiated capped call transactions with the Option Counterparties (the Additional Capped Call Transactions, and with the Base Capped Call Transactions, the Capped Call Transactions). The Capped Call Transactions initially cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of the Common Stock that underlie the Notes. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce or offset the potential dilution to the Common Stock upon conversion of any Notes and/or offset any potential cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The initial cap price of the Capped Call Transactions was $23.12 per share, which represents a premium of 100% over the reported sale price of the Common

Stock on The Nasdaq Global Market of $11.56 per share on February 28, 2023, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

The cost of the Capped Call Transactions was $18.6 million and was recorded as a reduction to our additional paid-in-capital in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Capped Call Transactions will not be remeasured as long as they continue to meet the conditions for equity classification. As of March 31, 2023, the Capped Call Transactions were out-of-the-money.

Note 8. Share-Based Compensation Plans

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we issued to certain employees an aggregate of 704,044 timed-based restricted stock units (RSUs), 91,338 performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs) that vest upon achievement of annual, adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) targets measured from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025, 121,710 PSUs that vest upon achievement of certain cumulative total shareholder return (TSR) targets measured from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025 and 16,026 stock options. 169,325 of the time-based RSUs vest over a two-year period with 50% on the first and second anniversary of the grant date, respectively, and 534,718 of the time-based RSUs vest over a three-year period with 25% of the RSUs vesting on the first and second anniversary of the grant date, and 50% vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date. Each of the time-based and performance-based RSU awards are subject to the recipient’s continued service with us, the terms and conditions of our stock option and incentive plan and the applicable award agreement.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we reported an income tax provision of $3.9 million as compared to an income tax provision of $2.9 million in the comparative prior year period. The increase during the three months ended March 31, 2023, resulted primarily from the change in the mix of earnings of foreign jurisdictions.

No changes in tax law occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2023, which had a material impact on our income tax provision. We do not record a deferred tax liability related to unremitted foreign earnings as we maintain our assertion to indefinitely reinvest our unremitted foreign earnings.

We use the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of the Notes on diluted net loss per common share. The Notes would have a diluted impact on net income per share when the average price of our Common Stock for a given period exceeds the respective conversion price of the Notes. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had 8,816,881 potentially issuable shares of Common Stock related to our Notes that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as the effect of including these shares in the calculation would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims, and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, some of which may not be covered by insurance. Upon resolution of any pending legal matters, we may incur charges in excess of presently established reserves. Our management does not believe that any such charges would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2021, we received a complaint that was filed by the administrator for the Senvion GmbH (Senvion) insolvency estate in German insolvency court. The complaint asserts voidance against us in the aggregate amount of $13.3 million. The alleged voidance claims relate to payments that Senvion made to us for wind blades that we produced prior to Senvion filing for insolvency protection. We filed a response to these alleged voidance claims in August 2021 and filed a supplemental response in April 2022. We believe we have meritorious defenses to the alleged voidance claims. Due to the current procedural posture of this claim, we have determined that the ultimate outcome cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Collective Bargaining Agreements

Certain of our associates in Türkiye and Matamoros, Mexico are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Our collective bargaining agreement with our associates in Türkiye was in effect through the end of 2022. We are in the process of negotiating an amendment to this agreement for 2023. We have separate collective bargaining agreements for each of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facilities. We amended a collective bargaining agreement at one of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facilities, and this collective bargaining agreement is in effect through March 2025. We have a collective bargaining agreement for our other facility in Matamoros, Mexico that we took over from Nordex, which was in effect through April 2023, and we are in the process of negotiating an amendment to this agreement.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Form 10-Q). Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, including information with respect to plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those described in or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q or in our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, particularly those under the heading “Risk Factors.”

OVERVIEW

Our Company

We are the only independent manufacturer of composite wind blades for the wind energy market with a global manufacturing footprint. We deliver high-quality, cost-effective composite solutions through long term relationships with leading original equipment manufacturers (OEM) in the wind market. We also provide field service inspection and repair services to our OEM customers and wind farm owners and operators, and supply high strength, lightweight and durable composite products to the automotive market. We are headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona and operate factories throughout the United States, Mexico, Türkiye, and India. We operate additional engineering development centers in Denmark and Germany and a service facility in Spain.

Our business operations are defined geographically into four geographic operating segments—(1) the United States (U.S.), (2) Mexico, (3) Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and (4) India. See Note 17, Segment Reporting, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details about our operating segments.

As previously announced in December 2022, changing economic and geopolitical factors, including increased logistics costs and tariffs imposed on components of wind turbines from China, including wind blades, had an adverse impact on demand for our wind blades manufactured in our Chinese facilities. As a result, we ceased production at our Yangzhou, China manufacturing facility as of December 31, 2022 and are shutting down our business operations in China during 2023. Our business operations in China comprised the entirety of our historically reported Asia segment. Accordingly, the historical results of our Asia reporting segment have been presented as discontinued operations in our financial statements.

KEY TRENDS AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS

 

Geopolitical events around the world have accelerated regional needs for energy independence and security. Climate change also continues to drive the need for renewable energy solutions and net-zero carbon emissions. Over the course of the past year, we have seen numerous government policy initiatives aimed at expanding the use of renewable energy. We expect these recent trends in governmental policy will enable long-term revenue growth in the wind industry.

 

Despite these favorable long term policy trends, we expect 2023 to be a transition year while the wind industry is awaiting formal implementation guidance related to key components of the IRA in the U.S. and clarity around more robust policies in the EU. These EU policies include the Green Deal Industrial Plan (Plan) that is expected to accelerate the expansion of renewable energy and green technologies, while building on previous initiatives such as the European Green Deal and REPowerEU. A key component of the Plan is the Net-Zero Industry Act to simplify regulations, speed up permits and promote cross-border projects to accelerate climate neutrality. As the majority of our blades are installed in the U.S. and the EU, these policy trends are expected to have a material impact on our business and the pace of long-term revenue growth.

 

In preparation for the expected long-term growth in the wind industry, we have entered into or agreed to enter into several recent arrangements with our customers that have extended or effectively extended a number of our supply agreements in Türkiye, India and Mexico, and we have agreed in principle to add two manufacturing lines in India. In addition, we have signed an agreement with GE Renewable Energy that enabled us to secure a ten-year lease extension of our manufacturing facility in Newton, Iowa.

 

The current geopolitical situation, and economic environment, including with respect to inflation, continue to evolve and affect supply chain performance and underlying assumptions in various ways – specifically with volatility in commodity, energy, and logistics costs. In 2023, we believe overall pricing for the raw materials that we source will be down compared to 2022. With our contract structure and shared cost approach with our customers, we expect to have a net benefit from this reduction in material pricing in 2023

26


 

compared to 2022. If the prices for these commodities, energy and logistics costs increase substantially, such elevated price levels could have a material impact on our results of operations.

 

Our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 have been adversely impacted by the performance of our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021. We experienced a loss from operations of $6.7 million and $5.0 million at this facility for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was reduced by the impact of a positive cumulative catch-up adjustment of approximately $2.2 million as a result of a modification to our customer contract that resulted in changes in certain of our estimated total contract values and related costs to complete the performance obligations.

 

Ongoing inflationary pressures have caused and may continue to cause many of our material, labor, and other costs to increase, which can have adverse impacts on our results of operations. The governments of Mexico and Türkiye increased minimum wages approximately 20% and 55%, respectively, effective January 1, 2023 and there may be further wage increases enacted throughout the year. While our customer contracts allow us to pass a portion of these increases to our customers, we will not be able to recover 100% of the wage inflation. If our manufacturing facilities in these countries continue to experience wage inflation at these levels and the increased costs in local currency are not offset with favorable foreign currency fluctuations, such elevated wages will have a material impact on our results of operations.

 

We believe there is an increasing demand for composite products for electric vehicles and therefore, we have made significant investments to expand our automotive business during the last several years. From 2018 to 2022, we invested approximately $81 million in our automotive business, and experienced significant losses and operational challenges during this expansion. We expect to invest an additional $10 million to $15 million in this business in 2023 and we expect to continue to operate at a loss for the year. We continue to explore strategic alternatives for our automotive business and remain focused on improving these operations.

 

In March 2023 we issued convertible senior unsecured notes with an aggregate principal amount of $132.5 million due in 2028. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.25% per year. In connection with the issuance of the Notes, we entered into capped call transactions to reduce or offset the potential dilution to the Company's common stock upon the conversion of the Notes and/or offset cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the converted Notes. Our net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were $109.1, net of the $4.8 million in debt issuance costs and $18.6 million in cash used to purchase the capped calls. We intend to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to fund eligible green projects designed to contribute to selected sustainable development goals as defined by the United Nations and for working capital, capital expenditures and/or other general corporate purposes, including the repayment of debt.

The increase in net sales of wind blades, tooling and other wind related sales during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to a 20% increase in the number of wind blades produced and higher average sales prices due to the mix of wind blade models produced and the impact of inflation on wind blade prices, partially offset by foreign currency fluctuations. The decrease in automotive sales was primarily due to a decrease in the number of composite bus bodies produced and a decrease in sales of other automotive products, partially offset by an increase in fees associated with minimum volume

commitments. The decrease in field service, inspection and repair services was primarily due to a reduction in technicians deployed to revenue generating projects due to a combination of inclement weather, the completion of a large customer campaign in 2022, and an increase in time spent on non-revenue generating inspection and rework. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro in our Türkiye operations had an unfavorable impact of 1.9% on consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to 2022.

The decrease in the U.S. segment’s automotive sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in the number of composite bus bodies produced and a decrease in sales of other automotive products, partially offset by an increase in fees associated with minimum volume commitments related to one of our supply agreements. The decrease in the U.S. segment's field service, inspection and repair services sales was primarily due to a reduction in technicians deployed to revenue generating projects due to a combination of inclement weather, the completion of a large customer campaign in 2022, and an increase in time spent on non-revenue generating inspection and rework.

U.S. Segment

The decrease in the loss from operations in the U.S. segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in non-restructuring related operating costs at our manufacturing facility in Newton, Iowa where production stopped, partially offset by increased material and labor costs for our automotive products and a decrease in the volume of field service, inspection and repair services.

Mexico Segment

The decrease in loss from operations in the Mexico segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase in the volume of wind blades produced, a change in the mix of wind blade models produced and reduced startup and transition costs, partially offset by increased labor costs, increased production costs due to a change in a customer’s inspection criteria requirements and continued challenges at our facilities in Matamoros, Mexico. The fluctuating U.S. dollar relative to the Mexican Peso had an unfavorable impact of 1.4% on cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022.

EMEA Segment

The decrease in income from operations in the EMEA segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to inflation impacting operating costs that we were not able to pass on to our customers. The impact of inflation on operating costs was partially offset by an increase in wind blade prices, a decrease in startup and transition costs and foreign currency fluctuations. The fluctuating U.S. dollar relative to the Turkish Lira and Euro had a favorable impact of 9.1% on cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022.

India Segment

The increase in income from operations in the India segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to an increase in wind blade production at our India manufacturing facility and operational efficiencies as the facility was ramping up production in 2022.

The increase in net loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to an increase in the loss on sale of assets and other non-restructuring related operating costs associated with our Yangzhou, China facility which ceased production at the end of 2022.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary needs for liquidity have been, and in the future will continue to be, capital expenditures, purchases of raw materials, new facility startup costs, costs related to our Matamoros, Mexico manufacturing facility that we took over from Nordex in July 2021, the impact of transitions, working capital, debt service costs, dividend payments to Series A Preferred Stockholders, warranty costs and restructuring costs associated with the optimization of our global footprint. Our capital expenditures have been primarily related to machinery and equipment for new facilities or facility expansions. Historically, we have funded our working capital needs through cash flows from operations, the proceeds received from our credit facilities and from proceeds received from the issuance of stock.

In March 2023, we issued and sold an aggregate of $132.5 million principal amount of 5.25% convertible senior unsecured notes due in 2028, the full amount of which is outstanding as of March 31, 2023. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes was $109.1 million, net of $4.8 million in debt issuance costs and $18.6 million in cash used to purchase the capped call transactions discussed

34


 

further in Note 7, Debt. The Notes mature on March 15, 2028 unless repurchased, redeemed, or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The requirements were not satisfied as of March 31, 2023 and as a result, the Notes will not be eligible for optional conversion during the second quarter of 2023. We intend to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes for working capital, capital expenditures, and/or general corporate purposes, including the repayment of debt. We intend to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from this issuance to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, projects that support the transition to a low-carbon economy, especially those that support the generation of renewable energy and the electrification of transport (the eligible green projects).

We had net proceeds under all of our various financing arrangements of $110.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to net repayments under our financing arrangements of $22.9 million in the comparable period of 2022, primarily due to the issuance of the Notes. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $190.3 million and $61.2 million in outstanding indebtedness, net of issuance costs, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, we had an aggregate of $68.7 million of remaining capacity for cash and non-cash financing, including $63.7 million of remaining availability for cash borrowing under our various credit facilities. Working capital requirements have increased as a result of our overall growth and the need to fund higher accounts receivable and inventory levels as our business volumes have increased. Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations, we believe that cash on hand, available credit facilities, cash flow from operations and our option to issue additional Series A Preferred Stock will be adequate to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements and to make required payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness over the next twelve months.

We anticipate that any new facilities and future facility expansions will be funded through cash flows from operations, the incurrence of other indebtedness and other potential sources of liquidity. The Certificate of Designations for the Series A Preferred Stock contains certain covenants and consent rights including, but not limited to, obtaining approval from the Series A Preferred Stockholders to incur indebtedness above $80.0 million, a cash on hand balance requirement of $50.0 million in the U.S., an individual limit of $10.0 million for any single capital expenditure project, an annual total capital expenditure limit of $30.0 million, and compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio target effective December 2023. The Series A Preferred Stockholders agreed to waive compliance with all covenants under the Certificate of Designations with respect to the Company’s sale and issuance of the Notes and the Company’s planned capital expenditures and incurrence of additional indebtedness of up to $17.0 million to acquire wind turbines that will provide renewable energy for our manufacturing facilities in Türkiye.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling $164.2 million and $133.6 million, respectively. The March 31, 2023 balance includes $17.8 million of cash located outside of the United States, including $13.9 million in Türkiye, $1.8 million in India, $1.0 million in Mexico and $1.1 million in other countries. In addition to these amounts, at March 31, 2023 we had $1.4 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents related to our discontinued operations. At December 31, 2022, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents related to our discontinued operations of $9.7 million, all located outside of the U.S.

Our ability to repatriate funds from China related to our discontinued operations to the U.S. is subject to a number of restrictions imposed by the Chinese government. We repatriate funds through several technology license and corporate/administrative service agreements. We are compensated quarterly based on agreed upon royalty rates for such intellectual property licenses and quarterly fees for those services. Certain of our subsidiaries are limited in their ability to declare dividends without first meeting statutory restrictions of China, including retained earnings as determined under Chinese-statutory accounting requirements. Until 50% ($16.1 million) of registered capital is contributed to a surplus reserve, our China discontinued operations can only pay dividends equal to 90% of after-tax profits (10% must be contributed to the surplus reserve). Once the surplus reserve fund requirement is met, our China discontinued operations can pay dividends equal to 100% of after-tax profit assuming other conditions are met. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of the surplus reserve fund was $1.5 million for both respective periods. We plan to shut down our business operations in China in the next 12 months. After all assets and liabilities related to our discontinued operations have been disposed of and/or sold, and after all legal and Chinese-statutory requirements have been met, our subsidiaries in China may distribute any remaining shareholders’ equity, including retained earnings, to our subsidiary in Switzerland.

Financing Facilities

Our total principal amount of debt outstanding as of March 31, 2023 was $195.1 million, including our convertible senior notes, secured and unsecured financing, working capital and term loan agreements and equipment finance leases.

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities increased by $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, as a result of China restructuring activities and working capital fluctuations, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable in the prior comparative period. The $83.9 million cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was related to approximately $37.6 million in payments for outstanding payables, severance, and other restructuring activities associated with the shutdown of our China operations, a $35.4 million increase in gross contract assets due to an increase in unbilled wind blade production and timing of advance payments and working capital fluctuations. In addition, during the first quarter of 2023, we made an $8.1 million payment related to our annual cash bonus program and an advance payment of approximately $6.3 million to acquire wind turbines that will provide renewable energy for our manufacturing facilities in Türkiye.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, as a result of a decrease in capital expenditures.

We are revising our 2023 capital expenditures guidance from $25 million to a range of $40 million to $45 million. The increase in expected capital expenditures is driven by a project to acquire wind turbines that will provide renewable energy for our manufacturing facilities in Türkiye that will have a positive long-term impact on reducing our operating costs, and incremental capital needed to startup our two open manufacturing lines in India. We have used, and will continue to use, cash flows from operations, the proceeds received from our credit facilities and the proceeds received from the issuance of stock and convertible senior notes for the continued investment in our existing manufacturing facilities.

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $131.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily as a result of the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes.

We are not presently involved in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including transactions with unconsolidated special-purpose or other entities that would materially affect our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources, other than our accounts receivable assignment agreements described below. Furthermore, we do not have any relationships with special-purpose or other entities that provide off-balance sheet financing; liquidity, market risk or credit risk support; or engage in leasing or other services that may expose us to liability or risks of loss that are not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, $224.4 million of receivables were sold under the accounts receivable assignment agreements described above as compared to $187.8 million in the comparative prior year period.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Note 2, Basis of Presentation, under the heading “Accounting Pronouncements” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. These market risks are principally limited to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. We conduct international operations in Mexico, Türkiye, India and Europe. Our results of operations are subject to both currency transaction risk and currency translation risk. We incur currency transaction risk whenever we enter into either a purchase or sale transaction using a currency other than the functional currency of the transacting entity. With respect to currency translation risk, our financial condition and results of operations are measured and recorded in the relevant functional currency and then translated into U.S. dollars for inclusion in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In recent years, exchange rates between these foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar have fluctuated significantly and may do so in the future. A hypothetical change of 10% in the exchange rates for the countries above would have resulted in a change to income from operations of approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Commodity Price Risk. We are subject to commodity price risk under agreements for the supply of our raw materials. We have not hedged our commodity price exposure. We generally lock in pricing for most of our key raw materials for 12 months which protects us from price increases within that period, which we believe helps to mitigate the impact of raw material price increases. As many of our raw material supply agreements have meet or release clauses, if raw materials prices decrease, we are able to benefit from the reductions in price.

Resin, resin systems, and carbon fiber are the primary commodities for which we do not have fixed pricing. Approximately 57% of the resin and resin systems, and approximately 92% of the carbon fiber, we use is purchased under contracts either controlled or borne by two of our customers and therefore they receive/bear 100% of any decrease or increase in resin and carbon fiber costs further limiting our exposure to price fluctuations.

Taking into account the contractual obligations of our customers to share with us the cost savings or increases resulting from a change in the current forecasted price of resin and resin systems we believe that a 10% change in the current forecasted price of resin and resin systems for the customers in which we are exposed to fluctuating prices would have an impact to income from operations of

37


 

approximately $6.6 million for the full year 2023. With respect to our other customer supply agreements, our customers typically receive approximately 70% of the cost savings or increases resulting from a change in the price of resin, resin systems.

Interest Rate Risk. As of March 31, 2023, all remaining secured and unsecured financing and finance lease obligations are fixed rate instruments and are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the design and operating effectiveness as of March 31, 2023 of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

See Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies, under the heading “Legal Proceedings” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of legal proceedings and other related matters.

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors (Part I, Item 1A) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results.

Conversions or exchanges of the Notes may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders or may otherwise affect the market price of our Common Stock.

The conversion of some or all of the Notes may dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. On conversion of the Notes, we have the option to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our Common Stock. If we elect to settle our conversion obligation in shares of our Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of our Common Stock, any sales in the public market of our Common Stock issuable on such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our Common Stock. In addition, the existence of the Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the Notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the Notes into shares of our Common Stock, any of which could depress the market price of our Common Stock.

The conditional conversion feature of the Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

The Notes are convertible at the option of the holder. In the event the conditions for optional conversion of the Notes by holders are met, holders of the applicable Notes will be entitled to convert the Notes during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their Notes, unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our Common Stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share), we may settle all or a portion of our conversion obligation in cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital and may adversely impact our business.
