TerraForm Power Announces Reports 2015 Financial Results and Files Form 10-K

BETHESDA, Md., Dec. 5, 2016 (GLOBENEWSWIRE) -- TerraForm Power, Inc. (Nasdaq: TERP) (“TerraForm Power”), a global owner and operator of clean energy power plants, today reported 2015 financial results and filed its Form 10-K for 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Form 10-K for 2015 is available on the Investors section of TerraForm Power’s website at www.terraformpower.com and a printed copy of the report may be requested free of charge by sending a request to TerraForm Power at 7550 Wisconsin Ave., 9th Fl., Bethesda, MD 20814.

“We are pleased to take this important step toward regaining regulatory compliance,” said Peter Blackmore, Chairman and Interim CEO of TerraForm Power. “Our board of directors and management team continue to take actions to strengthen TerraForm Power and position it for success. We remain committed to maximizing value for all shareholders.”

Strategic Alternatives

As announced on September 19, 2016, TerraForm Power is exploring strategic alternatives. Working with SunEdison and its stakeholders, the Company has a well-defined process and timeline and has asked bidders to provide firm pricing by a defined date in early January 2017, with binding bids due shortly thereafter. The Company’s board of directors will then consider binding bids and, if appropriate, recommend one of the bids for approval by shareholders.

The audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 include a going concern explanatory note.

Safe Harbor Disclosure

This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, assumptions, known and unknown risks, and uncertainties and typically include words or variations of words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “goal,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “objective,” “forecast,” “target,” “potential,” “continue,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may” or other comparable terms and phrases. All statements that address operating performance, events, or developments that TerraForm Power expects or anticipates will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. They may include estimates of cash available for distribution (CAFD), earnings, revenues, capital expenditures, liquidity, capital structure, future growth, and other financial performance items (including future dividends per share), descriptions of management’s plans or objectives for future operations, products, or services, or descriptions of assumptions underlying any of the above. Forward-looking statements provide TerraForm Power’s current expectations or predictions of future conditions, events, or results and speak only as of the date they are made. Although TerraForm Power believes its expectations and assumptions are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct and actual results may vary materially.

By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, risks related to the SunEdison Bankruptcy, including our transition away from reliance on SunEdison for management, corporate and accounting services, employees, critical systems and information technology infrastructure, and the operation, maintenance and asset management of our renewable energy facilities; risks related to events of default and potential events of default arising under our revolving credit facility, the indentures governing our senior notes, and/or project-level financing; risks related to failure to satisfy the requirements of Nasdaq, which could result in the delisting of our common stock; risks related to our exploration and potential execution of strategic alternatives; pending and future litigation; our ability to integrate the projects we acquire from third parties or otherwise realize the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions; the willingness and ability of counterparties to fulfill their obligations under offtake agreements; price fluctuations, termination provisions and buyout provisions in offtake agreements; our ability to successfully identify, evaluate, and consummate acquisitions; government regulation, including compliance with regulatory and permit requirements and changes in market rules, rates, tariffs, environmental laws and policies affecting renewable energy; operating and financial restrictions under agreements governing indebtedness; the condition of the debt and equity capital markets and our ability to borrow additional funds and access capital markets, as well as our substantial indebtedness and the possibility that we may incur additional indebtedness going forward; our ability to compete against traditional and renewable energy companies; potential conflicts of interests or distraction due to the fact that most of our directors and executive officers are also directors and executive officers of TerraForm Global, Inc.; and hazards customary to the power production industry and power generation operations, such as unusual weather conditions and outages. Furthermore, any dividends are subject to available capital, market conditions, and compliance with associated laws and regulations. Many of these factors are beyond TerraForm Power’s control.

TerraForm Power disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions, factors, or expectations, new information, data, or methods, future events, or other changes, except as required by law. The foregoing list of factors that might cause results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements should be considered in connection with information regarding risks and uncertainties which are described in TerraForm Power’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, as well as additional factors it may describe from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should understand that it is not

possible to predict or identify all such factors and, consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Adjusted Revenue

Adjusted Revenue is a supplemental non-GAAP measure used by our management for internal planning purposes, including for certain aspects of our consolidating operating budget. We believe Adjusted Revenue is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure which eliminates the impact on net income of certain unusual or non-recurring items and other factors that we do not consider representative of our core business or future operating performance. This measurement is not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance, including net income. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by non-operating, unusual or non-recurring items.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance and debt service capabilities. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management for internal planning purposes, including for certain aspects of our consolidated operating budget.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation, accretion and amortization, non-cash affiliate general and administrative costs, acquisition related expenses, interest expense, gains (losses) on interest rate swaps, foreign currency gains (losses), income tax (benefit) expense and stock compensation expense, and certain other non-cash charges, unusual, non-operating or non-recurring items and other items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance. Our definitions and calculations of these items may not necessarily be the same as those used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA:

Adjusted EBITDA	$72,051		$34,253		$357,702		$108,934

________

(a) Includes a $3.7 million and $5.3 million reduction within operating revenues, net due to net amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015, respectively, and a $0.6 million and $4.2 million reduction within operating revenues, net during the same periods in the prior year.

(b) General and administrative expenses - affiliate represent costs incurred by SunEdison for services provided to the Company pursuant to the MSA. In conjunction with the closing of the IPO on July 23, 2014, we entered into the MSA with SunEdison, pursuant to which SunEdison agreed to provide or arrange for other service providers to provide management and administrative services to us. Cash consideration paid to SunEdison for these services for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015 totaled $1.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively. There was no cash consideration paid to SunEdison for these services for the period from July 24, 2014 through December 31, 2014. The amount of general and administrative expenses in excess of the fees paid to SunEdison in each period is treated as an addback in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

(c) Represents stock-based compensation expense recorded within general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Excludes $1.0 million of stock-based compensation expense for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2015 related to equity awards in the stock of SunEdison that was allocated to the Company and recorded within general and administrative expenses - affiliate in the consolidated statement of operations.

(d) Represents transaction related costs, including affiliate acquisition costs, associated with the acquisitions completed during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 since such costs are considered to be paid for with financing sources.

(e) In conjunction with the First Wind Acquisition, SunEdison committed to reimburse us for capital expenditures and operations and maintenance labor fees in excess of budgeted amounts (not to exceed $53.9 million through 2019) for certain of our wind power plants. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company received contributions pursuant to this agreement of $4.3 million. The total amount related to capital expenditures of $50.0 million was initially recognized in renewable energy facilities as a prepaid warranty as the amount was part of the consideration paid on the acquisition date. As a result of the SunEdison Bankruptcy, the Company recorded a loss of $45.4 million during the three months and year ended December 31, 2015, related to the write-off of the remaining balance of the prepaid warranty, which was net of depreciation expense of $1.9 million and capital expenditure reimbursements received of $2.7 million.

(f) Represents Formation and offering related fees and expenses and Formation and offering related fees and expenses - affiliate reflected in the consolidated statement of operations. These fees consist of professional fees for legal, tax, and accounting services related to our IPO.

(g) Represents the change in the fair value of commodity contracts not designated as hedges.

(h) We recognized a net loss on extinguishment of debt of $7.5 million and $16.2 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015, respectively, driven by the following: i) the termination of the Term Loan and related interest rate swap, ii) the exchange of the previous revolver with a new revolving credit facility in January 2015, iii) prepayment of premium paid in conjunction with the payoff of First Wind indebtedness at the acquisition date, and iv) the refinancing of project-level indebtedness of our U.K. portfolio. These losses were partially offset by a gain resulting from the termination of financing lease obligations upon acquisition of the Duke Energy operating facility. Net gain on extinguishment of debt was $7.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, due primarily to the termination of financing lease obligations upon acquiring the lessor interest in the SunE Solar Fund X portfolio of solar generation facilities.

(i) Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, TERP made a one-time payment to LAP in the amount of $10.0 million in April 2016 in exchange for and contingent on the termination of the Arbitration against TERP. The expense incurred as a result of the one-time payment was recorded to general and administrative expenses for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015.

(j) Represents accrued loss recorded to general and administrative expenses for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015 related to a legal judgment awarded to the Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative for breach of contract over a failed transmission line transaction related to assets acquired from First Wind.

(k) Represents professional fees for legal, tax, and accounting services related to entering into certain tax equity financing arrangements and are not deemed representative of our core business operations.

(l) Represents unrealized losses on the remeasurement of intercompany loans which are primarily denominated in British pounds due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar.

(m) As a result of the SunEdison Bankruptcy, we recognized an $11.3 million loss on investment as a result of residential project cancellations during the three months and year ended December 31, 2015. Further, we recognized an additional $4.8 million loss related to recording a bad debt reserve for outstanding receivables from debtors in the SunEdison bankruptcy during the same periods.

(n) Primarily represents deferred revenue recognized related to the upfront sale of investment tax credits to non-controlling interest members.

(o) Represents certain other non-cash charges or unusual or non-recurring items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance. The amount for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015

includes a $4.2 million loss on investment. The remaining amount includes miscellaneous other non-cash charges or unusual or non-recurring items.

Reconciliation of Operating Revenues to Adjusted Revenue

Adjusted Revenue

We define Adjusted Revenue as operating revenues, net adjusted for non-cash items including unrealized gain/loss on derivatives, amortization of favorable and unfavorable revenue contracts and other non-cash items. We believe Adjusted Revenue is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted Revenue is a non-GAAP measure used by our management for internal planning purposes, including for certain aspects of our consolidating operating budget.
