Management Commentary and Outlook

Spruce Power Chief Executive Officer Chris Hayes commented, “Second quarter results reflect the strength of our business model, with revenue growing 48% from the year-earlier period, and Operating EBITDA surging 71%, as we drove a 52% decline in O&M expense. These results demonstrate traction on our two primary strategic initiatives: scaling our portfolio of solar installations and prudently containing costs. Our balance sheet is solid, with more than $90 million in cash, the majority of which is unrestricted. We are laser-focused on our objective of generating positive free cash flow."

“We are positioned for both stable operations and strong growth, due to our advantageous business model. As a leading third-party owner and operator of existing residential rooftop solar systems, our portfolio generates stable, high margin recurring revenue. With our limited penetration of a very large market, we have significant room for expansion even if residential solar installation growth slows meaningfully as a result of recent policy changes. There are over 5 million rooftop solar installations in the United States, and Spruce currently provides management services to approximately 145,000 systems and customer contracts.”

“Notably, unlike competitors pursuing origination models, we expect minimal impact from the H.R. 1 tax reconciliation bill passed in July. We buy systems post installation and after any tax credits are monetized. The installations we acquire generate stable, long-term contracted cash flows.”

“Demand for power in the U.S. is insatiable and growing rapidly. Individuals and companies are experiencing higher rates, driven by load growth from data centers servicing escalating Ai needs, the electrification of everything and industrial re-shoring. Despite implications from the recent H.R. 1 tax reconciliation bill, we expect rising utility rates to provide a viable pathway for new residential solar development that will not require the crutch of government subsidies.”

Consolidated Financial Results

Revenues totaled $33.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared with $22.5 million for the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the November 2024 acquisition of a residential solar portfolio from NJR Clean Energy Ventures ("NJR") and improved solar renewable energy credits ("SRECs") revenue. The Spruce PRO service agreement signed with ADT in December 2024 also contributed to growth.

Total operating expenses were $24.3 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $25.8 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Core Operating Expenses, which includes both selling, general & administrative ("SG&A") expenses and O&M expenses was $17.2 million in the aggregate for the second quarter of 2025, down from $21.2 million in the year-earlier period. This includes $15.1 million of SG&A expenses and O&M expenses of $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2025, down from SG&A expense of $16.7 million and O&M expense of $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2024. The decreases in both total operating expenses and Core Operating Expenses were primarily attributable to lower year-over-year O&M costs due to certain O&M efficiencies implemented in early 2025, and nearing the completion of meter upgrade efforts on our solar energy systems.

Net loss attributable to stockholders was $3.0 million, or ($0.16) per share for the second quarter of 2025.

Management considers Operating EBITDA as a key measure in evaluating Spruce's operating performance. For the second quarter of 2025, Operating EBITDA was $24.6 million, up from $14.4 million in the prior year period. This change was primarily attributable to the NJR acquisition, partially offset by lower settlements.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total principal amount of outstanding debt as of June 30, 2025, was $717.1 million with a blended interest rate of 6.1%, including the impact of hedge arrangements. All debt consists of project finance loans that are non-recourse to the Company itself. Non-recourse debt is incurred at the project level and does not impact the Company’s cash on hand balances.

Total cash as of June 30, 2025, was $90.5 million, or $5.07 per share, including cash and cash equivalents of $53.5 million and restricted cash of $36.9 million. Per-share amount is based on 17,834,368 shares issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2025.

Growth and Capital Allocation

Spruce is committed to maximizing long-term value for its shareholders through a disciplined approach that includes strategic acquisitions, capital expenditure projects, debt repayment and shareholder return initiatives.

The Company's gross portfolio value (as defined below) was $887.0 million in the second quarter of 2025.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes references to certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, can provide meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitate a meaningful evaluation of current period performance on a comparable basis with prior periods. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter, without the impact of items or events that may obscure trends in our underlying financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation and should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the GAAP financial measures presented in this press release, our financial statements, and other publicly filed reports. This prospective financial information was not prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information or U.S. GAAP with respect to forward-looking financial information. The non-GAAP measures presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Earnings (Loss) Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”):

We define EBITDA as our consolidated net income (loss) and adding back interest expense, net, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides meaningful information as to the performance of our business and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP reporting. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain identified items that we do not consider to be part of our ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results, and is more representative of our underlying performance. Management uses this information to assess and measure the performance of our operating segment. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of operating results, to illustrate the results of operations giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the below reconciliations, and to provide an additional measure of performance.

Operating EBITDA:

We define Operating EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA plus proceeds from investment in master lease agreement, net, proceeds from buyouts / prepayments and interest earned on cash investments. Proceeds from investment in master lease agreement, net, represent cash flows from the Company's Spruce Power 4 Portfolio, which holds the 20-year use rights to customer payment streams of approximately 22,500 solar lease and power purchase agreements, net of servicing costs. Proceeds from buyouts / prepayments represent cash inflows from the early buyout of customer solar contracts and cash inflows from the prepayment of customer solar contracts. Interest earned on cash investments represent cash interest received on investments in money market funds / U.S. Treasury securities.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations:

We define Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations as cash from operations adjusted for the recurring proceeds from both our SEMTH master lease and sales of solar energy systems, as well as non-recurring legal settlements.

Core Operating Expenses:

We define Core Operating Expenses as the sum of our SG&A and our O&M expenses.

Portfolio Value Metrics

We believe Portfolio Value Metrics are helpful to management, investors, and analysts to understand the value of our business and to evaluate the estimated remaining value of our customer contracts, including present value implied from future, uncontracted sales of SRECs generated from assets that the Company owns today.

•Gross Portfolio Value reflects the remaining projected net cash flows from current customers discounted at 6% (“PV6”)

•Projected cash flows include the customer’s initial agreement plus renewal


($ in millions)	As of June 30, 2025
Contracted Portfolio Value (1)	$	745
Renewal Portfolio Value (2)	91
Uncontracted Renewable Energy Credits (3)	51
Gross Portfolio Value (4)	$	887

(1) Contracted Portfolio Value represents the present value of the remaining net cash flows discounted at 6% per annum during the initial term of the Company’s customer agreements as of the measurement date. It is calculated as the present value of cash flows discounted at 6% that the Company expects to receive from customers in future periods as set forth in customer agreements, after deducting expected operating and maintenance costs, equipment replacements costs, distributions to tax equity partners in consolidated joint venture partnership flip structures, and distributions to third-party project equity investors. The calculation includes cash flows the Company expects to receive in future periods from state incentive and rebate programs, contracted sales of solar renewable energy credits, and awarded net cash flows from grid service programs with utilities or grid operators.

(2) Renewal Portfolio Value is the forecasted net present value the Company would receive upon or following the expiration of the initial customer agreement term, but before the 30th anniversary of the system’s activation in the form of cash payments during any applicable renewal period for customers as of the measurement date. The Company calculates the Renewal Portfolio Value amount at the expiration of the initial contract term assuming that, on average, Spruce's customers choose to renew 50% of the time

at a contract rate representing a 35% discount to the contract rate in effect at the end of the initial contract term, for a term of 7-years.

(3) Uncontracted sales of SRECs based on forward market REC pricing curves, adjusted for liquidity discounts.

(4) Gross Portfolio Value represents the sum of Contracted Portfolio Value, Renewal Portfolio Value and Uncontracted SRECs.
