Basis of Presentation:
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
 
 d.
Use of estimates:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures in the accompanying notes.

As a result, the Company’s accountingoutcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions may change over time in responsedue to this evolving situation. Such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangibles, long-lived assets, inventories, incremental credit losses on receivablesrisks and available-for-sale marketable debt securities, or an increase in the Company’s insurance liabilities as of the time of a relevant measurement event.uncertainties.

NOTE 2:       BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
 
In November 2021,On April 6, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Hark Systems Ltd. ("Hark"), a UK-based energy IoT company for the commercial and industrial ("C&I") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance.

Hark's platform is expected to enable the accounting entities with transactions with a government that areCompany to offer its commercial and industrial customers expanded capabilities in energy management and connectivity, including identification of potential energy savings, detection of anomalies in assets’ energy consumption, and optimization of energy usage and carbon emissions through load orchestration and storage control.
Pursuant to ASC 805, "Business Combination", the Company accounted for by analogythe Hark acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Identifiable assets and liabilities of Hark, including identifiable intangible assets, were recorded based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the closing of the acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The Company recorded preliminary estimates for the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Such preliminary valuation required estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, a grant or contribution accounting modelestimating future cash flows and direct costs in addition to developing the appropriate discount rates and current market profit margins. The Company’s management believes the fair values recognized for the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were based on reasonable estimates and assumptions.

All of the Goodwill was assigned to the new Consulting segment (see Note 21). Goodwill was not deductible for tax purposes. The fair values of technology, customer relationships and trade name were derived by applying the multi-period excess earnings method, with-and-without method, and the relief-from-royalty method, respectively, all of which are under the income approach whose underlying inputs are considered Level 3. The fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on management's estimates and assumptions.

NOTE 9:       DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

During the nine months ended September 30, 20222023, the Company instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program to protect againstreduce the risk of a forecasted increase in the value of foreign currency cash flows, resulting from salary denominatedpayment of salaries in Israeli currency, the New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”). The Company hedges portions of the anticipated payroll denominated in NIS for a period of one to nine months with hedging contracts. Accordingly, when the dollar strengthens against the NIS, the decline in present value of future foreign currency expenses is offset by losses in the fair value of the hedging contracts. Conversely, when the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is offset by gains in the fair value of the hedging contracts. These hedging contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815 and are all effective hedges.

NOTE 10:14:CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES
 
On September 25, 2020, the Company sold $632,500 aggregate principal amount of its 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold pursuant to an indenture, dated September 25, 2020 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes do not bear regular interest and mature on September 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms. The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company. Holders may convert their Notes prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 15, 2025 in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the 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 conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five-business-day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each trading day of that five consecutive trading day period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described in the Indenture. In addition, holders may convert their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at their option at any time beginning on or after June 15, 2025, and prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the stated maturity date of the Notes, without regard to the foregoing circumstances. The initial conversion rate for the Notes was 3.5997 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $277.80 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events as set forth in the Indenture.
 
Upon conversion, the Company may choose to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock.
 
In addition, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at a repurchase price of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding the fundamental change repurchase date. If certain fundamental changes referred to as make-whole fundamental changes occur, the conversion rate for the Notes may be increased.
 

The Convertible Senior Notes consisted of the following as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021:2022:

The 2007 Plan terminated upon the Company’s IPO on March 31, 2015 and no further awards may be granted thereunder. All outstanding awards will continue to be governed by their existing terms and 379,358 available options for future grants were transferred to the Company’s 2015 Global Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and are reserved for future issuances under the 2015 plan. The 2015 Plan became effective upon the consummation of the IPO. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of options, restricted stock units ("RSU"), performance stock units ("PSU"), and other share-based awards to directors, employees, officers, and non-employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2022,2023, a total of 18,047,08520,853,755 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to stock awards under the 2015 Plan (the “Share Reserve”), an aggregate of 9,802,73411,845,915 shares are still available for future grants.

The market condition for the PSUs is based on the Company’s total shareholder return ("TSR") compared to the TSR of companies listed in the S&P 500 index over a one to three year performance period.

NOTE 19:      INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 was (143.6)% and 58.0%, respectively.

The change in effective tax rate in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022 is mainly due to the IRC Section 174 R&D capitalization, and other expenses not recognized for GILTI purposes, which did not decrease in line with the decrease in our taxable income, as well as unfavorable impact of losses in foreign subsidiaries where we do not anticipate a future tax benefit.
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 33.6% and 42.1%, respectively.
The lower tax rate in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022 is mainly due to the fact that the Company's income before tax, most of which is subject to tax rates lower than the US statutory rate, increased. Conversely, the IRC Section 174 R&D capitalization, and other expenses not recognized for GILTI purposes, did not increase in the same proportion.
As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, unrecognized tax benefits were $3,155 and $2,756, respectively. If recognized, such benefits would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate.
The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. The total amount of penalties and interest were immaterial as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022.
In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which includes several incentives intended to promote clean energy, battery and energy storage, electrical vehicles, and other solar products, and is expected to impact our business and operations. As part of such incentives the IRA, will among other things, extend the investment tax credit (“ITC”) through 2034 and is therefore expected to increase the demand for solar products. The IRA is expected to further incentivize residential and commercial solar customers and developers due to the inclusion of a tax credit for qualifying energy projects of up to 30%. Since these regulations are new and their implementation is still pending administrative guidance from the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Treasury Department, the Company will be examining the benefits that may be available to it, such as the availability of tax credits for domestic manufacturers, in the coming months. During the third quarter, the Company began manufacturing inverters in the U.S..

NOTE 15:20:      EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHAREINCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate forfollowing table presents the three months ended September 30, 2022,computation of basic and 2021 was 58.0% and 12.6%, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 the effective tax rate was 42.1% and 15.9%, respectively.diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”):

The increase in the effective tax rate in the current year, is primarily due to the change to Section 174 of the U.S Internal Revenue Code, which came into effect on January 1, 2022. The change requires taxpayers to amortize research and development expenditures over five years (if expensed by a U.S. entity) or fifteen years (if expensed by non-U.S. entities). This change resulted in an increase in the Company’s taxable income and Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) tax. In addition, the change in the Company's tax rate resulted from a different allocation of income among the Company’s U.S., Israeli, and foreign subsidiaries, and lower tax benefits relating to stock-based compensation.

As of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, unrecognized tax benefits were $2,561 and $2,192, respectively. If recognized, such benefits would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate.

The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. The total amount of penalties and interest were immaterial as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.

In August 2022, the U.S. government signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which, among other things,  revised U.S. tax law by, including a new corporate alternative minimum tax (the “CAMT”) of 15% on certain large corporations, imposing a 1% excise tax on stock buybacks, and providing incentives to address climate change, including the introduction of advanced manufacturing production tax credits, that may be relevant to the company's products, if they will be manufactured in the US. The provisions of the IRA are generally effective for tax years beginning after 2022. Given the complexities of the IRA, which is pending technical guidance and regulations from the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Treasury Department, the Company is in the process of evaluating provisions included under the IRA and its impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 17:       SEGMENT, GEOGRAPHIC AND PRODUCT INFORMATION
Thethe Company operates in five different operating segments: Solar, Energy Storage, e-Mobility, Critical PowerAutomation Machines, and Automation Machines. In June 2022, the Company decided to discontinue its stand-alone Critical Power activities, see also Note 1b.newly formed Consulting segment.
 
The Company'sCompany’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), makes resource allocation decisions and assesses performance based on financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues and contributed profit by the operating segments.
 
The Company does not allocate to its operating segments revenue recognized due to advance payments received for performance obligations that extend for a period greater than one year, related to Accounting Standard CodificationASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606).
 
Segment profit is comprised of gross profit for the segment less operating expenses that do not include amortization of purchased intangible assets, impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, stock based compensation expenses, and certain other items.
 
The Company manages its assets on a group basis, not by segments, as many of its assets are shared or co-mingled. The Company’s CODM does not regularly review asset information by segments and, therefore, the Company does not report asset information by segment.
 
The Company identified one operating segment as reportable – the Solar segment. The other operating segments are insignificant individually and therefore their results are presented together under “All other”.
 
The Solar segment includes the design, development, manufacturing, and sales of an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual PV module level and a residential storage solution, compatible with the Company’s energy hubEnergy Hub inverter, intended to store and supply power for back-up and to maximize self-consumption. The Solar segment solution consists mainly of the Company’s power optimizers, inverters, batteries, and cloud‑based monitoring platform.platform.
 
The “All other” category includes the design, development, manufacturing, and sales of energy storage products, e-Mobility products, UPS products,automated machines, and automated machines.consulting services.

Overview
 
We are a leading provider of an optimized inverter solution that has changed the way power is harvested and managed in a solar photovoltaic, known as PV systems. Our direct current or DC optimized inverter system maximizes power generation at the individual PV module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system, for improved return on investment, or ROI. Additional benefits of the DC optimized inverter system include comprehensive and advanced safety features, improved design flexibility, efficient integration (DC coupled) with SolarEdge storage solutions, and improved operating and maintenance, or O&M with module-level and remote monitoring. Our future readymonitoring at the module level. The SolarEdge energy hubEnergy Hub inverter which supports, among other things, connection to a DC-coupled battery for full or partial home backup, and optional connection to the SolarEdge smart EV charger. The typical SolarEdge optimized inverter system consists of power optimizers, inverters, a communication device whichthat enables access to a cloud-based monitoring platform and in many cases, a battery and additional smart energy management solutions. Our solutions address a broad range of solar market segments, from residential solar installations to commercial and small utility-scale solar installations.

Since introducing the optimized inverter solution in 2010, SolarEdge has expanded its activity to other areas of smart energy technology, both through organic growth and through acquisitions. SolarEdge now offers energy solutions which include not only residential, commercial and small utility scale PV systems but also product offerings in the areas ofinclude energy storage systems or ESS, andhome backup including our own SolarEdge home battery,systems, electric vehicle, or EV, components and charging capabilities, home energy management, grid services and virtual power plants, or VPPs, and lithium-ion batteries and uninterrupted power supply, known as UPS solutions. In June 2022, we decided to discontinue our stand-alone UPS related activities and that the developed technologies will be integrated in solar products as uninterrupted power supply becomes required or relevant.batteries.
 
In the third quarter of 2020, we began commercial shipments to the U.S. from our manufacturing facility in the North of Israel, “Sella 1”. The proximity of Sella 1 to our R&D team and labs enables us to accelerate new product development cycles, as well as define equipment and manufacturing processes of newly developed products which can then be adopted by our contract manufacturers world-wide. DuringIn 2023, we expanded the second quartermanufacturing capacity of 2021, Sella 1 to add an additional inverter line that reached full manufacturing capacity.capacity in the third quarter of 2023. In May 2022, we announced the opening of “Sella 2”, a 2GWh Li-Ion cell factory in Korea. The new factorySella 2 began producing and shipping cells at the end of 2022 and is intendedexpected to helpgradually increase manufacturing capacity during 2024. In light of the Company meet the growing global demand for Li-Ion cells and batteries, specificallyInflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), legislation in the ESSUnited States that incentivizes the local manufacturing of renewable energy products by providing benefits to installers for the purchase and e-Mobility markets. Sella 2 is currentlyinstallation of US-manufactured products, as well as by incentivizing manufacturers of such products domestically, we have begun manufacturing products in testing phase, the U.S. With the ramp-up of this new site and due to a decrease in demand, this quarter we have reduced capacity in our manufacturing site in China and discontinued manufacturing of our products in Mexico, with ramp-up expectedthe intention to initiate duringclose the fourth quarter of 2022.
Mexico manufacturing site in coming months. We are a leader in the global module-level power electronics or MLPE market. As of September 30, 2022,2023, we have shipped approximately 101.0122.9 million power optimizers, 4.25.5 million inverters and 94.1and 229.5 thousand residential batteries. Over 2.93.6 million installations, many of which may include multiple inverters, are currently connected to, and monitored through, our cloud-based monitoring platform. As of September 30, 2022,2023, we have shipped approximately 36.951.7 GW of our DC optimized inverter systems and approximately 731.7 MW1.6 GWh of our residential batteries.
 
Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022,2023, and 20212022 were $836.7$725.3 million and $526.4$836.7 million,, respectively.

Global Circumstances Influencing our Business and Operations
 
Covid-19 Impact & ResponseDisruptions due to the war in Israel
 
Covid-19 continued to present challengesViolence between Hamas and Israel started on our operations and business in 2021, primarily, operational challenges which we reportedOctober 7th when the terrorist group launched an unprecedented attack on continuously in 2021. Due toIsrael. On October 8th, the worldwide growing trend in availability and administration of vaccines against Covid-19, many restrictionsIsraeli Government declared that were placed during the pandemic were gradually lifted by governments across the globe. However, the future impactSecurity Cabinet of the Covid-19 pandemic remains highly uncertain. ResurgencesState of Covid-19 cases and the emergence of new variants may adversely impact our results of operations. For example,Israel approved a war situation in the second quarter of 2022, the mandatory government shutdowns resulting from the increase in Covid-19 cases in Shanghai, that were eased in the beginning of the third quarter of 2022, led to delays in our scheduled shipments from the Shanghai port. Our first priority continues to be to protect and support our employees while maintaining company operations and supportIsrael. Approximately 11% of our customers with as few disruptions as possible. We followworkforce in Israel, where we are headquartered, have been called into active reserve duty. Recently, Israel’s credit outlook was cut to negative by S&P Global Ratings, which cited risks that the guidance issued by applicable local authoritieswar could spread more widely and health officials in each region in which we do business,have a more pronounced impact on the country’s economy than expected. Our offices and facilities are currently open worldwide, including in our headquarters located in Israel.
WhileIsrael, and, to date, we have not experienced any new disruptions resulting directly from Covid-19 in the third quarter of 2022, the pandemic and general global economic conditions continue to present challenges to our operations and business. In the third quarter of 2022, we experienced and expect to continue to experience in the fourth quarter of 2022, continuedhad disruptions to our logistics supply chain caused by constraints in the global transportation system including limited availability of local ground transportation coupled with congestion in shipping ports and industry-wide component shortages. These factors have impacted our ability to accurately planmanufacture and forecast the delivery of our products to customers and have also increased the total shipping time and cost of ocean freight for components and finished goods. Moreover, industry-wide component shortages require our R&D teams to focus their attention on manufacturing and production design workarounds solutions which can impact our ability to meet our plans to roll out new innovativedeliver products and services. Our operation team is working tirelesslyservices to mitigatecustomers. We are prioritizing and reallocating resources between projects to minimize the impact on our business. Due to these recent events, and their ongoing and evolving nature, the extent of the disruptions described above.adverse effect on our business operations is still unknown. A prolonged war or an escalation could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Impact of Ukraine’s Conflict on the Energy Landscape
 
The conflict between Ukraine and Russia, which started in early 2022, and the sanctions and other measures imposed in response to this conflict have increased the level of economic and political uncertainty. While we do not have any meaningful business in Russia or Ukraine and we do not have physical assets in these countries, this conflict has, and is likely tomay continue to have, a multidimensional impact on the global economy, the energy landscape in general and the global supply chain. On one hand, in the first nine months of 2022, rising global interest in becoming less dependent on gas and oil led to higher demand for our products. On the other hand, theThe conflict further adversely affected the prices of raw materials arriving from Eastern Asia and resulted in an increase in gas and oil prices. Furthermore, various shipment routes were adversely impacted by the conflict resulting in increased shipment lead times and shipping costs for our products. While the impact of this conflict cannot be predicted atis currently decreasing, a change or escalation of this time,ongoing conflict, could increase the impacts from the circumstances described above and may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 
Our revenues for the third quarter 2022 of $836.7 million, represent continued growth from revenues of $727.8 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Inflation Reduction Act
 
In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”),IRA, which includes several incentives intended to promote clean energy, battery and energy storage, electrical vehicles, and other solar products and is expected to impact our business and operations. As part of such incentives, the IRA will, among other things, extend the investment tax credit (“ITC”) for residential solar installations through 2034 and for commercial installations through 2024 and is therefore expected to increase the demand for solar products. The IRA is expected to further incentivize residential and commercial solar customers and developers due to the inclusion of a tax credit for qualifying energy projects of up to 30%. Since these regulations are new and are still pending administrative guidance from the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Treasury Department, we will be examining the benefits that may be available to us, such as the availability of tax credits for domestic manufacturers, in the coming months. To the extent that tax benefits or credits may be available to competing technology and not to our technology, our business could be adversely disadvantaged.
Demand for Products
The demand environment for our products experienced a slowdown beginning in the third quarter of 2023 in Europe. During the second part of the third quarter of 2023, we experienced substantial unexpected cancellations and pushouts of existing backlog from our European distributors. We attribute these cancellations and pushouts to high inventory in the channels and slower than expected installation rates. In particular, installation rates for the third quarter were much slower at the end of the summer and in September where traditionally there is a rise in installation rates. As a result, third quarter revenue, gross margin and operating income was below the low end of the prior guidance range. Additionally, the Company anticipates significantly lower revenues in the fourth quarter of 2023 as the inventory destocking process continues.

Key Operating Metrics
 
In managing our business and assessing financial performance, we supplement the information provided by the financial statements with other operating metrics. These operating metrics are utilized by our management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and formulate projections. We use metrics relating to shipments (inverters,of inverters, power optimizers residential batteries and megawatts shipped1) to evaluate our sales performance and to track market acceptance of our products. We use metrics relating to monitoring (systems monitored) to evaluate market acceptance of our products and usage of our solution.
 
We provide the “megawatts shipped” metric,and “megawatts hour shipped” metrics, which isare calculated based on inverter or battery nameplate capacity shipped, respectively, to show adoption of our system on a nameplate capacity basis. Nameplate capacity shipped is the maximum rated power output capacity of an inverter or battery, and corresponds to our financial results in that higher total nameplate capacities shipped are generally associated with higher total revenues. However, revenues may increase with each additional unit,in a non- correlated manner to the “megawatt shipped” metric since other products such as power optimizers, are not necessarily each additional MW of capacity sold. Accordingly, we also provide the “inverters shipped”, “power optimizers shipped” and "residential batteries shipped" operating metrics.accounted for in this metric.

Revenues increaseddecreased by $310.3$111.4 million, or 59.0%13.3%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to (i) an increase in the numbera decrease of inverters and power optimizers sold, with significant growth in revenues coming from Europe and the U.S.; and (ii) an increase of $161.4$89.0 million related to the number of residential batteries sold mainly in EuropeEurope; and (ii) a decrease of $17.2 million related to a decrease in the U.S.number of ancillary solar products sold. Revenues from outside of the U.S. comprised 69.9%73.0% of our revenues in the three months ended September 30, 20222023 as compared to 64.1%69.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2021.2022. The decrease in revenues was due to high inventory in the channels and slower than expected installation rates.
 
The number of power optimizers recognized as revenues increaseddecreased by approximately 1.42.9 million units, or 30.1%46.9%, from approximately 4.7 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to approximately 6.1 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2022.2022 to approximately 3.3 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2023 as a result of lower demand. The number of inverters recognized as revenues increased by approximately 25.49.5 thousand units, or 11.0%3.7%, from approximately 231.7 thousand units in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to approximately 257.1 thousand units in the three months ended September 30, 2022. In2022 to approximately 266.6 thousand units in the three months ended September 30, 2023. The relative increase in inverters shipped vs. the decrease in optimizers shipped this quarter is a result of our ability to catch up inverter production with demand that we were not able to fulfil in previous quarters. The megawatts hour of residential batteries recognized as revenues decreased by approximately 209.2 megawatts hour, or 57.6% from approximately 363.0 in the three months ended September 30, 2022 we recognizedto approximately 363.0153.7 megawatts of residential batteries as revenues compared to a negligible amounthour in the three months ended September 30, 2021.2023, as a result of lower demand.

Our blended Average Selling Price or ASP(“ASP”) per watt for solar products excluding residential batteries is calculated by dividing the sales of solar revenues,products, excluding revenues from the salesales of residential batteries, by the name plate capacity of invertersinverters shipped. Our blended ASP per watt for solar products shipped excluding residential batteries decreased by $0.022,$0.069, or 8.8%29.5%, in the three months ended September 30, 2022,2023, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.2022. The decrease in blended ASP per watt is mainly attributed to the depreciation of the Euro and other currencies against the U.S. Dollar which, coupled with our increased sales in Europe, accelerated this effect as well as the increase in the sale of commercial products in Europe and the U.S.that are characterized by lower ASP per watt, out of our total solar product mix that are characterized withand a relatively lower number of power optimizers and other solar products shipped compared to the number of inverters shipped, leading to a reduced overall effect on our ASP per watt.
This decrease in blended ASP per watt was partially offset by price increases that went into effect gradually during 2022 and the first half of 2023, as well as by the appreciation of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar.
Our blended ASP per watt/hour for residential batteries is calculated by dividing residential battery sales, by the nameplate capacity of residential batteries shipped. Our blended ASP per watt/hour for residential batteries increased by $0.027, or 6.1%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in blended ASP per watt/hour is mainly attributed to the increase in the sale of one phase batteries that are characterized by higher ASP per watt/hour, as well as the appreciation of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar.
Revenues increased by $440.9 million, or 19.9%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase of $497.9 million related to an increase in the number of inverters sold, with significant growth in revenues coming from Europe. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $53.7 million related to a decrease in the number of ancillary solar products sold. Revenues from outside of the U.S. comprised 75.7% of our revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to 62.7% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was partially offset by a decrease in revenues in the third quarter of 2023 due to unexpected cancellations and pushouts of existing backlog from our European distributors.
The number of power optimizers recognized as revenues decreased by approximately 1.7 million units, or 10.2%, from approximately 17.0 million units in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately 15.3 million units in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as a result of lower demand. The number of inverters recognized as revenues increased by approximately 234.7 thousand units, or 33.6%, from approximately 697.7 thousand units in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately 932.4 thousand units in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The relative increase in inverters recognized versus the decrease in optimizers recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was a result of our ability to catch up inverter production with demand that we were not able to fulfil in previous quarters. The megawatts hour of residential batteries recognized as revenues decreased by approximately 19.6 megawatts hour, or 3.0% from approximately 660.8 megawatts hour in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately 641.2 megawatts hour in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to a decrease in demand.
Our blended ASP per watt for solar products shipped excluding residential batteries decreased by $0.054, or 22.1%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in blended ASP per watt is mainly attributed to a relatively higherlower number of power optimizers and other solar products shipped compared to the number of inverters shipped, which increasedleading to an overall reduction in our total solar revenues but did not impact the watt amount used for calculating the ASP per watt.
Revenues increased by $807.6 million, or 57.2%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to (i) an increase in the number of inverters and power optimizers sold, with significant growth in revenues coming from Europe and the U.S; and (ii) an increase of $316.8 million related to the number of residential batteries sold mainly in Europe and the U.S. Revenues from outside of the U.S. comprised 62.7% of our revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 62.6% in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The number of power optimizers recognized as revenues increased by approximately 3.6 million units, or 26.8%, from approximately 13.4 million units in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to approximately 17.0 million units in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The number of inverters recognized as revenues increased by approximately 105.8 thousand units, or 17.9%, from approximately 591.9 thousand units in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to approximately 697.7 thousand units in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized approximately 660.8 megawatts of residential batteries as revenues compared to a negligible amount in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Our ASP per watt for solar products excluding residential batteries is calculated by dividing the solar revenues by the name plate capacity of inverters shipped. Our blended ASP per watt for solar products shipped excluding residential batteries decreased by $0.005, or 2.1%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in blended ASP per watt is mainly attributed to the depreciation of the Euro and other currencies against the U.S. Dollar which, coupled with our increased sales in Europe accelerated this effect as well as thedue to an increase in the sale of commercial products in Europe and the U.S.,that are characterized by lower ASP per watt, out of our total solar product mix that are characterized with lower ASP per watt.
mix. This decrease in blended ASP per watt was partially offset by price increases that went into effect gradually during 2022 and in the secondfirst half of 2021 and continued in 20222023, as well as a relatively higher numberby the appreciation of other solar products shippedthe Euro against the U.S. Dollar.
Our blended ASP per watt/hour for residential batteries decreased by $0.005, or 1.0%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the number of inverters shipped, which increased our total solar revenues but did not impact the watt amount used for calculating thenine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in blended ASP per watt.watt/hour is mainly attributed to the addition of a three phase battery, which is sold at a lower ASP per watt/hour, to our product portfolio, which was partially offset by the appreciation of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar.

anAn increase in personnel and manufacturing related costs from the volume of products sold and an increase in the unit cost of components used in the manufacturingexpansion of our products;infrastructure geared towards accelerated growth;
 
 
a significant increase in shipment and logistic costs in an aggregate amount of $92.8 million due to (i) an increase in shipment rates; and (ii) an increasecosts related to our existing install base such as warranty expenses, which were divided this quarter by lower revenue resulting in volumes shipped;lower gross margin;
 
 
an increase in inventory accrual for impairment of excess inventory;
an increased portion of sales of commercial products out of our total product mix, which are characterized with lower gross margin; and
our non-solar businesses, referred to in our financial results as "all other segments", are generally characterized by a lower gross profit which effect was amplified this quarter.
These were partially offset by:
favorable exchange rates on our sales outside of the U.S.;
gradual price increases across our product offerings; and
continued cost reduction efforts.

We intend to use the proceeds from the public offering for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions. See Note 11b15b to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.
 
Share Repurchases
On November 1, 2023, we announced the approval by the Board of Directors of a share repurchase program which authorizes the repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company’s common stock. Under the share repurchase program, repurchases can be made using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs and/or a non-discretionary trading plan or other means, including through 10b5-1 trading plans, all in compliance with the rules of the SEC and other applicable legal requirements. The timing, manner, price and amount of any common share repurchases under the share repurchase program are determined by the Company in its discretion and depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. The program does not obligate SolarEdge to acquire any amount of common stock, it may be suspended, extended, modified, discontinued or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and will expire on December 31, 2024.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Management Estimates
Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, except as mentioned in Note 1, “General” (if any).
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, customer concentrations, interest rates and interest rates.commodity prices . We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
 
Approximately 59.5%70.9% and 57.1%59.5% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022,2023, and 2021,2022, respectively, were earned in non U.S. dollar denominated currencies, principally the Euro. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, primarily the U.S. dollar, New Israeli Shekel ("NIS"(“NIS”), Euro, and to a lesser extent, the South Korean Won ("KRW"(“KRW”). Our NIS denominated expenses consist primarily of personnel and overhead costs. Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates between the Euro and the U.S. dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $85.9$198.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.2023. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates between the NIS and the U.S. dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $32.8$30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.2023.
 
17

 
For purposes of our consolidated financial statements, local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange to the U.S. dollar on the balance sheet date, and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rate as of the date of the transaction or at the average exchange rate to the U.S. dollar during the reporting period.
 
To date, we have used derivative financial instruments, specifically foreign currency forward contracts and put and call options, to manage exposure to foreign currency risks by hedging portions of the anticipated payroll payments denominated in NIS. These derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges.
 
In addition, from time to time we also enteredenter into derivative financial instruments to hedge the Company’s exposure to currencies other than the U.S. dollar, mainly forward contracts to sell Euro and AUD for U.S. dollars. These derivative instruments are not designated as cash flow hedges.
 
Concentrations of Major Customers
 
Our trade accounts receivables potentially expose us to a concentration of credit risk with our major customers. As of September 30, 2023, two major customers jointly accounted for approximately 37.3% of our consolidated trade receivables, net balance. As of December 31, 2022, two major customers jointly accounted for approximately 27.7% of our consolidated trade receivables, net balance. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 two major customers jointly accounted for approximately 27.3% of our total revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, two major customers accounted for approximately 27.7% and 29.1%27.4% of our consolidated trade receivables balance, respectively.total revenues. For the threenine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, 2023 two major customers jointly accounted for approximately 27.4% and 28.1%25.4% of our total revenues, respectively.revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 one and two major customerscustomer accounted for approximately 20.1% and 28.3% of our total revenues, respectively. We currently do not foresee a credit risk associated with these receivables.revenues.
 
Commodity Price Risk
 
We are subject to risk from fluctuating market prices of certain commodity raw materials including copper, which are used in our products.products, including Copper, Lithium, Nickel and Cobalt. Prices of these raw materials may be affected by supply restrictions or other market factors from time to time, and we do not enter into hedging arrangements to mitigate commodity risk. Significant price changes for these raw materials could reduce our operating margins if we are unable to recover such increases from our customers, and could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 
ItemITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures.
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2022.2023. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
 
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded, as of September 30, 2023, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance 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.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the third fiscal quarter of 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION.
 
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
 
On July 28, 2022, we were served with a complaint by Ampt LLC filed with the International Trade Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended and the District Court for the District of Delaware alleging patent infringement against the Company and its subsidiary SolarEdge Technologies Ltd. On October 24, 2022, the complaint filed in the District Court of Delaware was administratively stayed until the Commission's action is resolved. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to the complaints and intend to vigorously defend against them.
In the normal course of business, we may from time to time be named as a party to various legal claims, actions and complaints (including as a result of initiating such legal claims, action or complaints on behalf of the Company), including the matters described in Note 16 – “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities” and Note 22 -- “Subsequent Events” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this report and in Item 3 – “Legal Proceedings” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent quarterly filings.2022. It is impossible to predict with certainty whether any resulting liability from any such legal claims, actions or complaints would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
ITEM 1A.1A. Risk Factors
 
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factor set forth below and the risk factors as described in Part I, Item 1A, ”Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. Except as set forth below, there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022
 
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was signed into federal law. The IRA provides for, among other things, certain incentives, including certain tax credits, intendedWe have experienced and may continue to promote clean energy. Given that the IRA is a complex new piece of legislation, additional guidance on the regulatory treatment of the IRA is expected from the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Treasury Department. It is currently uncertain the extent to which our products will qualify for such incentives. Any unfavorable regulatory treatment, or guidance, including any tax benefits being made available to competing technology and notexperience disruption to our technology, could adversely impact our business operations as a result of war and financial condition.hostilities in Israel
 
Violence between Hamas and Israel started on October 7th when the terrorist group launched an unprecedented attack on Israel. On October 8, 2023 the Israeli Government declared that the Security Cabinet of the State of Israel approved a war situation in Israel. Since our headquarters and most of our employees operate from Israel, the state of war has disrupted and is continuing to disrupt our business operations. This situation has impacted the availability of our workforce, as approximately 11% of our workforce in Israel, where we are headquartered, have been called into active reserve duty. Several of our employees who reside close to the southern or northern boarders of Israel have been forced to evacuate their homes and have relocated to temporary housing. Since the education system is partially operating many of our employees with small children are working from home. Due to the recency of these events, and their ongoing and evolving nature, the extent of the adverse effect on our business operations is still unknown. While our offices and facilities are open worldwide, including in Israel, and, to date, we have not had disruptions to our ability to manufacture and deliver products and services to customers a prolonged war or an escalation of the current conditions in Israel could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
