COVID-19 consideration

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. At the same time, countries around the world have ordered companies to limit or suspend operations and imposed many travel restrictions which resulted in a sudden decline in global economic activity and an increase in market volatility. The Company has implemented significant measures in order to meet government requirements and preserve the health and safety of its employees by working remotely intermittently where possible and applying separate shifts in its power plants, manufacturing facilities and other locations while trying to continue operations at close to full capacity in all locations. Also, the Company focused efforts to adjusting its operations to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 including managing its global supply chain risks, and enhancing its liquidity profile. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company took prompt steps to manage its expenses including responsible cost cutting measures and significantly reduced hiring. In addition, in order to support its capital expenditure and growth plans, in the second quarter and July 2020, the Company raised more than $ i 400 million through long term loans as described above and under Note 11, Subsequent Events to the condensed consolidated financial statements. While the extent and duration of the economic downturn from the COVID-19 pandemic remains unclear, the Company has considered, among other things, whether the global operational disruptions indicate a change in circumstances that may trigger asset impairments and whether it needs to revisit accounting estimates and projections or its expectations about collectability of receivables. Additionally, the Company has considered the potential impacts on its fair value disclosures and on its internal control over financial reporting. During the quarter, the Company's power plants, manufacturing and storage facilities have been operating at close to full capacity and there was no significant direct impact on the Company's operations as a result of the economic downturn. While significant uncertainty still exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, the Company has determined that there was no triggering event for an impairment with respect to any of its assets nor has there been an adverse change in the probability related to the collectability of its receivables. The Company continues to assess the potential impact of the global economic situation on its consolidated financial statements.

Puna

 

On May 3, 2018, the Kilauea volcano located in close proximity to the Company's 38 MW geothermal power plant in the Puna district of Hawaii's Big Island erupted following a significant increase in seismic activity in the area. Before it stopped flowing, the lava covered the wellheads of three geothermal wells, monitoring wells and the substation of the Puna complex and an adjacent warehouse that stored a drilling rig that was also consumed by the lava. The insurance policy coverage for property and business interruption is provided by a consortium of insurers. All the insurers accepted and started paying for the costs to rebuild the destroyed substation and during the first six months of 2020, the Company received an additional $ i 3.9 million of such proceeds, $ i 0.8 million of which were received in the second quarter. However, only some of the insurers accepted that the business interruption coverage started in May 2018 and during the first six months of 2020, the Company recognized income of $ i 8.2 million from such additional cash proceeds, $ i 3.3 million of which was received in the second quarter, which were included in cost of revenues up to the amount covering the related costs and the remainder, totaling $ i 3.0 million, in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company has filed a lawsuit against those insurers that have not accepted its business interruption claim.  

 

As of August 2020, recommission efforts at Puna continue. Permits that are required for the construction and operation of the substation were received. Hawaii Electric Light Company ("HELCO") received the Public Utility Commission ("PUC") approval and started to construct the transmission network. On the field side, the Company connected one new production well to the power plant and is expected to enable partial production by the beginning of the fourth quarter. The Company continues its field recovery work, which includes drilling of new wells and expects gradual increase of generation to 29 MW by the end of the year, assuming the transmission network upgrade is completed and field recovery is successfully achieved.

 

In December 2019, Puna Geothermal Venture ("PGV") and HELCO's subsidiary reached an agreement on an amended and restated PPA for dispatchable geothermal power sold from the Puna complex. The new PPA extends the term until 2052 with an increased contract capacity of 46MW and a fixed price with no escalation, regardless of changes to fossil fuel pricing. The Commercial Operation Date ("COD") of the new 8MW plant is expected during 2022. The existing PPA remains in effect, with current terms, until the expansion is completed, and the new plant reaches its COD.

The Company continues to assess the accounting implications of this event on the assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets and whether an impairment will be required. Any significant damage to the geothermal resource or continued shut-down following the lava event at the Puna facilities could have an adverse impact on the power plant's electricity generation and availability, which in turn could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business and results of operations.

Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.

 

The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions located in the United States (“U.S.”) and in foreign countries. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had deposits totaling $ i 11.4 million and $ i 12.9 million, respectively, in ten U.S. financial institutions that were federally insured up to $250,000 per account. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s deposits in foreign countries amounted to approximately $ i 116.1 million and $ i 84.8 million, respectively.

 

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, accounts receivable related to operations in foreign countries amounted to approximately $ i 151.6 million and $ i 118.8 million, respectively. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, accounts receivable from the Company’s primary customers, which each accounted for revenues in excess of 10% of total consolidated revenues for six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019, amounted to approximately  i 52% and  i 58% of the Company’s trade receivables, respectively.

 

Sierra Pacific Power Company and Nevada Power Company (subsidiaries of NV Energy, Inc.) accounted for  i 17.2% and  i 16.5% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and  i 18.3% and  i 17.4% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Southern California Public Power Authority (“SCPPA”) accounted for  i 20.0% and  i 17.2% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and  i 19.5% and  i 18.3% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Kenya Power and Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC") accounted for  i 16.0% and  i 16.6% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and  i 15.7% and  i 16.0% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The Company has historically been able to collect on substantially all of its receivable balances. As of June 30, 2020, the amount overdue from KPLC was $ i 54.8 million of which $ i 8.8 million was paid in July 2020. These amounts represent an average of  i 81 days overdue. The Company believes it will be able to collect all past due amounts in Kenya. This belief is supported by the fact that in addition to KPLC's obligations under its power purchase agreement, the Company holds a support letter from the Government of Kenya that covers certain cases of KPLC non-payment (such as where caused by government actions/political events). Additionally, on April 17, 2020, the company received from KPLC a notice declaring a force majeure event in Kenya due to the impact of COVID-19 and purporting to reduce the Olkaria complex’s contracted capacity from 150 MW to 133.9 MW. As a result of the force majeure provisions in the Power Purchase Agreement related to this facility, the notice had an immaterial impact on revenues, as agreed also by KPLC. In addition, the Company experienced a higher rate of curtailments by KPLC in the Olkaria complex. The impact of the curtailments is limited as the structure of the PPA secures the vast majority of the Company's revenues with fixed capacity payments unrelated to the electricity actually consumed.

In Honduras, the Company has been able to collect current charges from Empresa Nacional de Energía Eléctrica (“ENEE”) starting in May 2019. However, due to continuing restrictive measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic in Honduras, the Company may experience delays in collection. As of June 30, 2020, the total amount overdue from ENEE was $ i 24.0 million of which $ i 20.1 million relates to the period from October 2018 to April 2019 and the $ i 4.0 million relates to February and March invoices that are overdue. In July 2020, we received payments of $ i 0.7 million on account of such invoices. In view of the ongoing Honduran government support undertaking, the Company believes it will be able to collect past due amounts in Honduras. In addition, on April 30, 2020, we also received from ENEE a notice declaring a force majeure event in Honduras due to the impact of COVID-19. The Company has not identified any impact on its consolidated financial statements as a result of this notice.

 

The Company may experience delays in collection in other locations due to the restrictive measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic which were imposed globally to different extents.

NOTE 2 — NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

New accounting pronouncements effective in the six months period ended June 30, 2020

 

Financial Instruments—Credit Losses

 

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology. Under the new guidance, on initial recognition and at each reporting period, an entity is required to recognize an allowance that reflects its current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial instrument based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables from operating leases are accounted for using the lease guidance and not as financial instruments. The guidance became effective on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within that year and requires a modified retrospective transition approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Under the modified retrospective method of adoption, prior year reported results are not restated. The Company has performed its analysis of the impact on its financial instruments that are within the scope of this guidance, primarily cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents, receivables (excluding those accounted under lease accounting) and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, based on class of financing receivables which share the same or similar risk characteristics such as customer type and geographic location, among others. The Company has estimated the expected credit losses for each class of financing receivables by applying the related corporate default rate which corresponds to the credit rating of the specific customer or class of financing receivables. For trade receivables, the Company applied this methodology using aging schedules reflecting how long the receivables have been outstanding. The Company has also considered the existence of credit enhancement arrangements that may mitigate the credit risk of its financial receivables in estimating the applicable corporate default rate. The Company adopted this update effective January 1, 2020 and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to its retained earnings as of that date of approximately $ i 0.8 million. While significant uncertainty still exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, the Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted.

 

The following table describes the changes in the allowance for expected credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 (all related to trade receivables):

Accounting for Income Taxes

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019- 12 is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within. Early adoption is permitted although the Company had not early adopted ASU 2019-12 as of June 30, 2020. The Company does not anticipate ASU 2019-12 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform

 

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The amendments in this update provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") reference rate is scheduled to be discontinued on December 31, 2021. The amendments in this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Modifications of contracts within the scope of Topic 470, Debt, should be accounted for by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply the amendments for contract modifications by Topic or Industry Subtopic as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Once elected for a Topic or an Industry Subtopic, the amendments in this Update must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications for that Topic or Industry Subtopic. The Company evaluated the impact of the transition from LIBOR, and currently believes that the transition will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4— FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The fair value measurement guidance clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon selling an asset or paid upon transferring a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the fair value measurement guidance are described below:

 

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

 

The following table sets forth certain fair value information at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy, as well as cost or amortized cost. As required by the fair value measurement guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of inputs that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value of the long-term debt is determined by a valuation model, which is based on a conventional discounted cash flow methodology and utilizes assumptions of current borrowing rates. The fair value of revolving lines of credit is determined using a comparison of market-based price sources that are reflective of similar credit ratings to those of the Company.

 

As disclosed above under Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a global economic downturn and market volatility that may have an impact on the estimated fair value of the Company's long-term debt. While interest rates on U.S. Treasury securities have declined and may continue to decline as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, other components of the Company's borrowing rates have increased and may continue to increase as the global economic situation evolves, all of which have a direct impact on the fair value of the Company's long-term debt.

 

The carrying value of financial instruments such as revolving lines of credit and deposits approximates fair value.

NOTE 7 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share attributable to the Company’s stockholders is computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to the Company’s stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company does not have any equity instruments that are dilutive, except for employee stock-based awards.

NOTE 9 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

•     On May 21, 2018, a motion to certify a class action was filed in Tel Aviv District Court against Ormat Technologies, Inc. and 11 officers and directors.  The alleged class is defined as "All persons who purchased Ormat shares on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange between August 3, 2017 and May 13, 2018". The motion alleges that the Company and other respondents violated  Sections 31(a)(1) and 38C of the Israeli Securities Law, and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, because they allegedly: (1) misled investors by stating in the Company's financial statements that it maintains effective internal controls over its accounting policies and procedures, even though  the Company's internal controls had material weaknesses which led to erroneous accounting in its 2017 unaudited quarterly reports that had to be restated, including adjustments to the Company’s net income and shareholders’ equity; and (2) failed to issue an immediate report in Israel until May 16, 2018, analogous to the report that was released in the United States on May 11, 2018 stating, inter alia, that the errors in its financial reports affected its balance sheet and would be remedied in its 2017 annual report. The Company had filed  agreed motions from time to time to the Tel Aviv District Court to stay the proceedings in Israel in light of   the United States case (Mac Costas). On June 30, 2020pursuant to the execution and submission of a settlement agreement to the United States court for approval, which resolves the matters raised with respect to the entire class of shareholders (whether trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange or U.S. stock exchange), the Company filed a motion informing the Tel Aviv court of the settlement.  On July 2, 2020, Plaintiff in the Tel Aviv action filed a motion requesting the Israeli court to issue an Anti-Suit Injunction against Phoenix Insurance, the lead plaintiff in the United States case, instructing it to, inter alia, discontinue acting on behalf of the Israeli class members in the matter. The Company considers that it has strong legal defenses and it is not probable that the request for an Anti-Suit Injunction will be granted. The potential amount that the Company may bear in this context cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.  

 

•     On June 11, 2018, a putative class action filed by Mac Costas on behalf of alleged shareholders that purchased or acquired the Company's ordinary shares between August 8, 2017 and May 15, 2018 was commenced in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada against the Company and its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which was subsequently amended by a consolidated complaint filed by lead plaintiff Phoenix Insurance in May 13, 2019The complaint asserts claim against all defendants pursuant to Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder and against its officers pursuant to Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act.  The complaint alleges that the Company's Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017, and Form 10-Qs for each of the quarters in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 contained material misstatements or omissions, among other things, with respect to the Company’s tax provisions and the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, and that, as a result of such alleged misstatements and omissions, the plaintiffs suffered damages. On December 6, 2019 the Company’s motion to dismiss was denied by the court. On March 23, 2020, pursuant to out of court mediation, a term sheet for a proposed settlement of the action without admission of liability or wrongdoing, was signed between the parties and on June 10, 2020, a joint stipulation and motion for preliminary approval of the comprehensive executed settlement documentation was filed for the court for approval, which is now pending. The sum the Company will bear in this context is not material.

 

•     On September 11, 2018, the Klein derivative action (Klein Action) was filed against the Company, our board and its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, and on October 22, 2018, the Matthew derivative action (Matthew Action) was filed against the Company, certain named present and former board members (Barniv, Beck, Boehm, Clark, Falk, Freeland, Granot, Joyal, Nishigori, Sharir, Stern and Wong) in the United States District Court, District of Nevada.  The Klein complaint asserts four derivative causes of action generally arising from Ormat's restatement of its financial statements: (i) the individual defendants allegedly breached their fiduciary duties by allowing the Company to improperly report its financials; (ii) the individual defendants allegedly were unjustly enriched by being compensated while breaching their fiduciary duties; (iii) the individual defendants allegedly committed corporate waste in paying officers and directors and by incurring legal costs and potential liability; and (iv) the director defendants allegedly breached Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with the issuance of the 2018 proxy. The Matthew complaint similarly alleges derivatively a breach of fiduciary duties, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and corporate waste by the named directors. On January 24, 2019, the Nevada Court entered an order consolidating the Klein Action and Matthew Action. On July 10, 2020, a comprehensive settlement package and derivative stipulation of settlement was submitted to the court, which will be requested to approve. The sum the Company will bear for implementation is not material.

 

•     Following the announcement of the Company’s acquisition of U.S. Geothermal Inc. ("USG"), a number of putative shareholder class action complaints were initially filed on behalf of USG shareholders between March 8, 2018 and March 30, 2018 against USG and the individual members of the USG board of directors.  All of the purported class action suits filed in Federal Court in Idaho have been voluntarily dismissed.  The single remaining class action complaint is a purported class action filed in the Delaware Chancery Court, entitled Riche v. Pappas, et al., Case No. 2018-0177 (Del. Ch., Mar. 12, 2018). An amended complaint was filed on May 24, 2018 under seal, under a confidentiality agreement that was executed by plaintiff.  The amended Riche complaint alleges state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty against former USG directors and seeks post-closing damages. On March 27, 2020, pursuant to out of court mediation, a term sheet for a proposed settlement of the action, without admission of liability or wrongdoing, was signed between the parties. On June 3, 2020, a comprehensive settlement package and stipulation of settlement was filed with the court for approval. The court has scheduled a hearing date for its review on September 16, 2020. The sum the Company will bear in this context is not material.

•     On March 29, 2016, a former local sales representative in Chile, Aquavant, S.A., filed a claim on the basis of unjust enrichment against Ormat’s subsidiaries in the 27th Civil Court of Santiago, Chile. The claim requests that the court order Ormat to pay Aquavant $ i 4.6 million in connection with its activities in Chile, including the EPC contract for the Cerro Pabellon project and various geothermal concessions, plus  i 3.75% of Ormat geothermal products sales in Chile over the next  i 10 years. Pursuant to various motions submitted by the defendants and the plaintiffs to various courts, including the Court of Appeals, the case was removed from the original court and then refiled before the 11th Civil Court of Santiago. On April 16, 2020, the 11th Civil Court of Santiago issued its order rejecting Plaintiff's principal claim of unjust enrichment, as an improper cause of action, rejecting Plaintiff's secondary claim for declaratory judgment, which the Court associates with the principal claim of unjust enrichment and not relating to a number of defenses raised by the Company. In May 2020, each of the parties filed separately to the court of appeals, which are pending. The Company considers it has strong legal defenses and the probability of the claimant receiving an award is low. The potential amount that the Company may bear in this context cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.  

 

In addition, from time to time, the Company is named as a party to various other lawsuits, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of the Company's business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, the Company accrues reserves when a loss is probable, and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. It is the opinion of the Company’s management that the outcome of these proceedings, individually and collectively, will not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a whole.

The effective rate differs from the federal statutory rate of  i 21% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to: (i) the mix of business in various countries with higher statutory tax rates than the federal statutory tax rate; (ii) a net increase in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets related to Production Tax Credits ("PTC"); and (iii) partially offset by tax depreciation benefits related to intra-entity transfers of assets.

 

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments have enacted or are contemplating measures to provide aid and economic stimulus. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States provides relief on deferral of tax payments and filings, modifies the net operating loss utilization rules, and temporarily increases the interest expense deduction allowed. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no material tax impacts to our consolidated financial statements as it relates to the CARES Act or other COVID-19 stimulus measures. The Company will continue to monitor additional guidance issued by Treasury, the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities.

 

Tax Audit in Kenya

 

The Company has received three Notices of Assessments (“NoA”) from the Kenya Revenue Authority ("KRA") relating to certain findings in respect of its audit of tax years 2013 to 2017.  The Company has responded and objected to each of the KRA audit findings and has already filed its appeals to Objection Decisions issued by the KRA and continuing the legal process in order to resolve the issues raised. The total amount of assessments under the first two NoAs is approximately $ i 157 million, excluding penalties and interest of approximately $ i 42 million and the total amount of assessment under the third NoA is approximately $ i 3 million, excluding penalties and interest of approximately $ i 1 million.

 

The Company is currently at different stages of discussions with the KRA on the matters included in the KRA assessments. The Company believes its tax positions for the issues raised during the audit period is more-likely-than-not sustainable based on technical merits under Kenyan tax law. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had not recorded any tax reserves related to these demands except for an immaterial amount.

NOTE 11 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4

 

On July 1, 2020, the Company concluded an auction tender and accepted subscriptions for senior unsecured bonds comprised of NIS  i 1.0 billion aggregate principal amount (the “Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4”). The Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4 were issued in New Israeli Shekels and converted to approximately $ i 290 million using a cross-currency swap transaction shortly after the completion of such issuance. The Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4 bear interest at a fixed rate of  i 3.35% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears starting December 2020 and will be repaid in  i 10 equal annual payments commencing June 2022 unless prepaid earlier by the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of the trust instrument that governs the Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4. The proceeds from the Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4 will be used to pay the total consideration of $ i 43.9 million, net of the Pomona purchase transaction as further detailed below, repay certain existing indebtedness and support the Company's growth plans.

 

Cross Currency Swap

 

Shortly after the issuance of the Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4, the Company entered into a long-term cross currency swap (the "Cross Currency Swap") to hedge the currency rate fluctuations related to the aggregated principal amount and interest of the Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4 at an average fixed rate of  i 4.34%. The terms of the Cross Currency Swap match those of the Senior Unsecured Bonds - Series 4, including the notional amount of the principal and interest payment dates. The Company will account for the Cross Currency Swap as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and accordingly will measure the Cross Currency Swap instrument at fair value. The changes in the Cross Currency Swap fair value will initially be recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and will be reclassified to "Derivatives and foreign currency transactions gains (losses)" in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings in order to offset such amounts in the same line item in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

General

 

Overview

 

We are a leading vertically integrated company that is primarily engaged in the geothermal, and recovered energy power businesses. We leveraged our core capabilities and global presence to expand our activity into the solar Photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage and management services business.

 

We design, develop, build, sell, own, and operate clean, environmentally friendly geothermal and recovered energy-based power plants, usually using equipment that we design and manufacture. Our objective is to become a leading global provider of renewable energy and we have adopted a strategic plan to focus on several key initiatives to expand our business.

 

We currently conduct our business activities in three business segments:

 

 

Electricity Segment. In the Electricity segment, which contributed 73.6% of our total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2020, we develop, build, own and operate geothermal, solar PV and recovered energy-based power plants in the United States and geothermal power plants in other countries around the world and sell the electricity they generate. In the three months ended June 30, 2020, we derived 63.4% of our Electricity segment revenues from our operations in the United States and 36.6% from the rest of the world.

 

 

Product Segment. In the Product segment, which contributed 25.0% of our total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2020, we design, manufacture and sell equipment for geothermal and recovered energy-based electricity generation and remote power units and provide services relating to the engineering, procurement, construction, of geothermal, and recovered energy-based power plants. In the three months ended June 30, 2020, we derived 2.9% of our Product segment revenues from our operations in the United States and 97.1% from the rest of the world.

 

 

Energy Storage and Management Services Segment. In the Energy Storage and Management Services segment, which contributed 1.4% of our total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2020, we provide energy storage, demand response and energy management related services as well as services relating to the engineering, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of energy storage units through the business of our Viridity Energy Solutions Inc. ("Viridity"), which we acquired in 2017. In the three months ended June 30, 2020, we derived 100% of our Energy Storage and Management Services segment revenues from our operations in the United States.

  

Our operations are conducted in the U.S. and the rest of the world. Our current generating portfolio includes geothermal power plants in the U.S., Kenya, Guatemala, Honduras, Guadeloupe and Indonesia, as well as recovered energy generation and Solar PV power plants and storage activity in the U.S.

 

COVID 19 Update

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. Governments around the world have ordered companies to limit or suspend non-essential operations and imposed operational and travel restrictions resulting in a decline in global economic activity and an increase in market volatility.

 

The Company has implemented significant measures both to comply with government requirements and to preserve the health and safety of its employees. These measures include working remotely where possible and operating separate shifts in its power plants, manufacturing facilities and other locations while trying to continue operations in close to full capacity in all locations. During the quarter and subsequently, the Company's power plants, manufacturing facility and storage facilities have been operating at close to full capacity and there has been no material impact on our operations as a result of these measures.

 

In addition, we did not experience any material impact on our results of operations during the first half of 2020, but certain events and developments we have experienced may have an impact in the second half of 2020 and beyond that varies among our business segments.

 

 

In our Electricity segment almost all of our  revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was generated under long term contracts and the majority have a fixed energy rate.  As a result, despite logistical and other challenges, we experienced only a limited impact of COVID-19 on our Electricity segment. Nevertheless, on April 17, 2020, we received from Kenya Power & Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC") a notice declaring a force majeure event in Kenya due to the impact of COVID-19 and purporting to reduce the Olkaria complex’s contracted capacity from 150 MW to 133.9 MW. As a result of the force majeure provisions in the Power Purchase Agreement related to this facility, the notice had an immaterial impact on our expected revenue, as agreed also by KPLC. In addition, we experienced a higher rate of curtailments by KPLC in the Olkaria complex. The impact of the curtailments is limited as the structure of the PPA secures the vast majority  of our revenues with fixed capacity payments unrelated to the electricity actually consumed (in 2019 and six months ended June 30, 2020, capacity payments represented 70% and 75% of our revenues, respectively). On April 30, 2020, we also received from ENEE a notice declaring a force majeure event in Honduras due to the impact of COVID-19. We have not identified any impact on our consolidated financial statements as a result of this notice.  In addition, our future growth in the Electricity segment might be adversely impacted by a lack of funding for projects, a decrease in demand for electricity, delays in permitting and the implications of global and local restrictions on our ability to procure raw material and ship our products.

 

29

 

 

Our Product segment revenues are generated from sales of products and services pursuant to contracts, under which  we have a right to payment for any product that was produced for the customer. Recognition of revenue under these contracts is impacted by delays in the progress of the third-party projects into which our products and services are incorporated. We had a product backlog of $65.5 million as of August 3, 2020, which includes revenues for the period between July 1, 2020 and August 3, 2020 compared to $201 million as of August 7, 2019. We believe that the decline in backlog resulted mainly due to the impact of COVID-19 and the unwillingness of potential customers to enter into new commitments at this time. We currently expect to recognize more than 80% of our backlog by the end of 2020. Nevertheless, we expect that 2020 product revenues  will be significantly adversely impacted for the reasons set out above, restrictions on travel and because our customers deferring their decision to purchase, which all have impacted our sales and marketing efforts. 

 

 

Our Energy Storage and Management Services segment generate revenues mainly from the sale of the electricity ancillary services back to the energy markets based on the prevailing market price for the electricity or for the energy or ancillary services. There has been a decline in ancillary services prices  that was driven primarily by the impact of  COVID 19. This decline impacted negatively our energy storage facilities’ revenues. If the decline in ancillary prices continues, we may experience a further decline in our energy storage revenues.  

 

 

In addition, we experience delays in the permitting for new projects in all segments that may also cause a delay in those projects.   

 

Given uncertainties regarding future global economic activity and the continued and potential future impact of COVID-19, we have undertaken a number of steps in managing our global supply chain risks as well as enhancing the Company’s liquidity position. In the first quarter of 2020, we took prompt steps to manage our expenses including responsible cost cutting measures and significantly reduced hiring. In addition, in order to support our capital expenditure and growth plans, in the second quarter and July 2020, we raised more than $400 million through long term loans.

 

Despite our efforts to provide insight into the performance of our business and the trends affecting it, as of the date of this filing, significant uncertainty exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. We may become subject to any of the following impacts:

 

 

limitations on the ability of our suppliers to obtain raw materials that are required for the manufacturing of the products we either sell to third parties or build for ourselves or to meet delivery requirements and commitments that may result in penalty payments;   

 

impact on our efforts to sign new contracts for our Product segment due to operational and travel restrictions and availability of our customers and their willingness to enter into new agreements;  

 

limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us on a timely basis;

 

lack or limited availability of capital or postponement of capital allocation for future growth;  

 

additional declarations of COVID-19 as force majeure by our customers and suppliers;

 

a reduction in the demand for electricity and for our products;

 

change in regulations, taxes and levies that may affect our operations and cost structure; 

 

risk of infection among employees that may impact the day-to-day operations;

 

delays in obtaining the required permits that may impact our  ability to implement our growth plan; 

  limited ability to oversees remote operation due to travel restrictions. 

 

Other Recent Developments

 

The most significant developments in our Company and business since January 1, 2020 are described below.

 

 

As of August 2020, recommission efforts at Puna continue. Permits that are required for the construction and operation of the substation were received. Hawaii Electric Light Company ("HELCO") received the Public Utility Commission ("PUC") approval and started to construct the transmission network. On the field side, the Company connected one new production well to the power plant and is expected to enable partial production by the beginning of the fourth quarter. The Company continues its field recovery work, which includes drilling of new wells and expects gradual increase of generation to 29 MW by the end of the year, assuming the transmission network upgrade is completed and field recovery is successfully achieved.  

 

30

 

 

In July 2020, we completed the acquisition of the Pomona energy storage asset in California from Alta Gas for a total net consideration of $43.9 million. The Pomona energy storage facility has been in commercial operation since December 31, 2016 under a 10-year energy storage resource adequacy agreement with Southern California Edison Company. It also participates in the energy and ancillary services markets run by the California Independent System Operator. The facility is our first battery storage asset in operation in California, increasing our existing operating portfolio to 73MW/136MWh and adding to our battery storage assets in New Jersey, New England and Texas.

 

 

In July 2020, we issued approximately $290.0 million of bonds (the "Bonds") that were issued in New Israeli Shekels and were converted to U.S. Dollars using a cross-currency swap transaction (the “Swap”) at an effective fixed interest rate of 4.34%. The $290 million of bonds will mature in June 2031 and bear, prior to the Swap, a fixed interest rate of 3.35% per annum, payable semi-annually starting December 2020. The Bonds will be repaid in 10 equal installments starting June 2022, unless prepaid earlier by Ormat pursuant to the terms and conditions of the trust instrument that will govern the Bonds. The Bonds received a rating of ilAA- from Maloot S&P in Israel with a stable outlook. In April and May 2020 we also raised approximately $130 million of new corporate debt from existing lenders. 

 

 

In June we completed the enhancement of our Steamboat Hills complex and increased its generating capacity by 19MW to a total of 84MW. Enhancement work included the replacement of all old generating unit equipment with new, state-of-the-art equipment and resource modifications. The new equipment will increase the productivity and efficiency of the power plant and is expected to reduce maintenance costs per kWh. The Steamboat Hills power plant continues to sell its electricity under the current 25-year long term portfolio power purchase agreement with Southern California Public Power Authority ("SCPPA"), with 100% of the capacity going to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. 

 

 

In April 2020, we announced the commercial operation of the Rabbit Hill Battery Energy Storage System ("BESS") facility, providing required ancillary services and energy optimization to the wholesale markets managed by the Electricity Reliability Council of Texas ("ERCOT"). The facility is located in the City of Georgetown, Texas, and it is sized to provide approximately 10 MW of fast responding capacity to the ERCOT market. Ormat’s wholly owned subsidiary Viridity Energy Solutions Inc. designed, built, owns and operates the lithium-Ion-based BESS, using batteries from a tier 1 supplier.

 

 

In February 2020, we announced a transition of our senior management. Mr. Isaac Angel has decided to retire from his position as Chief Executive Officer, effective July 1, 2020, after six years of successful service to the Company, its employees and its shareholders. Mr. Angel  became a member of Ormat’s Board of Directors and its chairman and will continue to be employed by the Company through December 31, 2020 in order to assist with the management transition. Ormat’s Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Blachar, the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer, to succeed Mr. Angel.  Mr. Doron Blachar  assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer on July 1, 2020 upon Mr. Angel’s retirement. Mr. Blachar was succeeded in his role as Chief Financial Officer by Mr. Assaf Ginzburg, effective May 10, 2020.

 

 

In January 2020, we signed two similar PPAs with Silicon Valley Clean Energy ("SVCE") and Monterey Bay Community Power ("MBCP"). Under the PPAs, SVCE and MBCP will each purchase 7 MW (for a total of 14 MW) of power generated by the expected 30 MW Casa Diablo-IV ("CD4") geothermal project located in Mammoth Lakes, California that is under construction. The PPAs are for a term of 10 years and have a fixed MWh price, which includes energy, capacity, environmental attributes, and all other ancillary benefits. The remaining 16 MW of generating capacity will be sold under an additional PPA with SCPPA, which was signed in early 2019. The CD4 power plant is expected to be on-line at the end of 2021, and will be the first geothermal power plant built within the California Independent System Operator ("CAISO") balancing authority in the last 30 years and will be the first in Ormat’s portfolio that will sell its output to a Community Choice Aggregator. 

 

Trends and Uncertainties

 

Different trends, factors and uncertainties may impact our operations and financial condition, including many that we do not or cannot foresee. However, we believe that our results of operations and financial condition for the foreseeable future will be primarily affected by trends, factors and uncertainties discussed in our 2019 Annual Report under “Part II - Item 7 – Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” in addition to the information set forth in this report. These trends, factors and uncertainties are from time to time also subject to market cycles.

 

 

As COVID-19 threatens demand, oil prices have declined and could have  consequences on the global transition to renewable energy and on governmental support for renewables. We believe that the direct impact of declining oil prices on us is not material. In addition, volatile natural gas prices may have an impact on ancillary services prices related to our Energy Storage and Management Services revenues. 

 

31

 

Revenues

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, 98.6% of our Electricity segment revenues were from PPAs with fixed energy rates, which are not affected by fluctuations in energy commodity prices. We have variable price PPAs in California and Hawaii, which provide for payments based on the local utilities’ avoided cost, which is the incremental cost that the power purchaser avoids by not having to generate such electrical energy itself or purchase it from others, as follows:

 

 

the energy rates under the PPAs in California for each of Heber 2 power plant in the Heber Complex and the G2 power plant in the Mammoth Complex, a total of between 30 megawatts (MW) and 40 MW, change primarily based on fluctuations in natural gas prices; and

 

 

the prices paid for the electricity pursuant to the 25 MW PPA for the Puna Complex in Hawaii change primarily as a result of variations in the price of oil as well as other commodities. We recently signed a new PPA related to Puna with fixed prices that will govern a future plant.

 

To comply with obligations under their respective PPAs, certain of our project subsidiaries are structured as special purpose, bankruptcy remote entities and their assets and liabilities are ring-fenced. Such assets are not generally available to pay our debt, other than debt at the respective project subsidiary level. However, these project subsidiaries are allowed to pay dividends and make distributions of cash flows generated by their assets to us, subject in some cases to restrictions in debt instruments, as described below.

 

Electricity segment revenues are also subject to seasonal variations and are affected by higher-than-average ambient temperatures, as described below under “Seasonality”.

 

Revenues attributable to our Product segment are based on the sale of equipment, engineering procurement and construction (“EPC”) contracts and the provision of various services to our customers. Product segment revenues may vary from period to period because of the timing of our receipt of purchase orders and the progress of our equipment manufacturing and execution of the relevant project.

 

Revenues attributable to our Energy Storage and Management Services segment are derived primarily from Battery Storage as a Service ("BSAAS") systems, demand response and energy management services and may fluctuate from period to period. Pricing of such services and products are dependent on market supply and demand trends, market volatility, the need and price for ancillary services and other factors that may change over time.

The contribution of our domestic and foreign operations within our Electricity segment and Product segment to combined pre-tax income differ in a number of ways.

 

In the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 51% and 48% of our revenues were derived from international operations, respectively, and our international operations were more profitable than our U.S. operations. A substantial portion of international revenues came from Kenya and Turkey and, to a lesser extent, from Guadeloupe, Guatemala and Honduras and other countries. Our operations in Kenya contributed disproportionately to gross profit and net income. 

 

Electricity Segment. Our Electricity segment domestic revenues were approximately 63% and 62% of our total Electricity segment for both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. However, domestic operations in our Electricity segment have higher costs of revenues and expenses than the foreign operations in our Electricity segment. Our foreign power plants are located in lower-cost regions, like Kenya, Guatemala, Honduras and Guadeloupe, which favorably impact payroll, well-field and maintenance expenses among other items. They are also newer than most of our domestic power plants and therefore tend to have lower maintenance costs and higher availability factors than our domestic power plants.

 

Product Segment. Our Product segment foreign revenues were approximately 97% and 77% of our total Product segment revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our Product segment foreign activity also benefits from lower costs of revenues and expenses than Product segment domestic activity such as labor and transportation costs. Accordingly, our Product segment foreign activity contributes more than our Product segment domestic activity to our pre-tax income from operations.

 

33

 

In the six months ended June 30, 2020, the international operations in our Electricity segment accounted for 48% of our total gross profit, 70% of our net income and 44% of our EBITDA.

 

Seasonality

 

Electricity generation from some of our geothermal power plants is subject to seasonal variations; in the winter, our power plants produce more energy primarily attributable to the lower ambient temperature, which has a favorable impact on the energy component of our Electricity segment revenues and the prices under many of our contracts are fixed throughout the year with no time-of-use impact. The prices paid for electricity under the PPAs for the Heber 2 power plant in the Heber Complex, the Mammoth Complex and the North Brawley power plant in California, the Raft River power plant in Idaho and the Neal Hot Springs power plant in Oregon, are higher in the months of June through September. The higher payments payable under these PPAs in the summer months partially offset the negative impact on our revenues from lower generation in the summer attributable to a higher ambient temperature. As a result, we expect the revenues in the winter months to be higher than the revenues in the summer months and in general we expect the first and fourth quarters to generate higher revenues than the second and third quarters.

 

Breakdown of Cost of Revenues

 

The principal cost of revenues attributable to our three segments are discussed in our 2019 Annual Report under “Part II - Item 7 – Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation”.

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $174.9 million, compared to $184.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which represented a 5.0% decrease from the prior year period. This decrease was attributable to a $8.3 million, or 16.0% decrease in our Product segment revenues compared to the corresponding period in 2019, and a $0.4 million, or 15.0% decrease in Energy Storage and Management Services segment revenues as compared to the corresponding period in 2019, all as discussed below. Electricity segment revenues remained almost flat.

 

Electricity Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Electricity segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $128.7 million, compared to $129.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

 

Power generation in our power plants decreased by 4.7% from 1,516,060 MWh in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 1,444,249 MWh in the three months ended June 30, 2020 mainly due to the lower generation at our OREG facilities and curtailments in the Olkaria power plant driven, inter alia, by the affect of COVID 19 in Kenya. However, revenues remained unchanged because of different energy rates under our portfolio contracts.

 

Product Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Product segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $43.7 million, compared to $52.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which represented a 16.0% decrease. The decrease in our Product segment revenues was mainly due to projects in Turkey and the U.S., which were completed in 2019, which accounted for $23.6 million in Product segment revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was partially offset by other projects in Turkey which were started in 2020, and provided $19.5 million in revenue recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Energy Storage and Management Services Segment

 

Revenues attributable to our Energy Storage and Management Services segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $2.5 million compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decline is mainly due to the impact of COVID 19 on the frequency regulation market prices. The Energy Storage and Management Services segment includes revenues from the delivery of energy storage demand response and energy management services.

Total cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $109.5 million, compared to $118.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which represented an 7.9% decrease. This decrease was attributable to a decrease of $1.8 million, or 2.5%, in cost of revenues from our Electricity segment, a decrease of $6.6 million, or 16.0%, in cost of revenues from our Product segment and a decrease of $1.0 million, or 25.4%, in cost of revenues from our Energy Storage and Management Services segment generated by our Viridity business, all as discussed below. As a percentage of total revenues, our total cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased to 62.6% from 64.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

 

Electricity Segment

 

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $72.0 million, compared to $73.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower operational costs in some of our power plants in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 and a decrease in lease expense of $1.3 million due to the termination of the lease transaction. Cost of revenues at our Puna power plant that was shut down immediately following the Kilauea volcanic eruption on May 3, 2018, includes business interruption recovery of $2.7 million, in the three months ended June 30, 2020 , compared to $6.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019. As a percentage of total Electricity revenues, our total cost of revenues attributable to our Electricity segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was 55.9%, compared to 57.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to the increase in gross profit relating to lower operational costs in some of our power plants. The cost of revenues attributable to our international power plants was 22.4% of our Electricity segment cost of revenues.

 

Product Segment

 

Total cost of revenues attributable to our Product segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $34.7 million, compared to $41.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which represented a 16.0% decrease. This decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in Product segment revenues, different product scope and different margins in the various sales contracts we entered into mainly in Turkey, New Zealand and Chile for the Product segment during these periods. As a percentage of total Product segment revenues, our total cost of revenues attributable to our Product segment for both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was 79.4%.

 

Energy Storage and Management Services Segment

 

Cost of revenues attributable to our Energy Storage and Management Services segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $2.9 million compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Energy Storage and Management Services segment includes cost of revenues related to the delivery of energy storage, demand response and energy management services.

 

Research and Development Expenses, Net

 

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $1.2 million, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase is mainly attributable to new development projects that took place during 2020.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

 

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $4.9 million compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in sales commissions due to different product mix and increase in marketing activities. Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 constituted 2.8% of total revenues for such period, compared to 1.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $11.3 million compared to $14.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.  The decrease was primarily attributable to a gain of $1.3 million from sale of concession, business interruption recovery of $0.6 million relating to the Puna power plant and a decrease in professional fees and travel costs. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 constituted 6.5% of total revenues for such period, compared to 7.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

 

Operating Income

 

Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $48.1 million, compared to $46.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which represented a 2.5% increase.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our principal sources of liquidity have been derived from cash flows from operations, proceeds from third party debt such as borrowings under our credit facilities, offerings and issuances of debt securities, project financing, tax monetization transactions, short term borrowing under our lines of credit, and proceeds from the sale of equity interests in one or more of our projects. We have utilized this cash to develop and construct power plants, fund our acquisitions, pay down existing outstanding indebtedness, and meet our other cash and liquidity needs.

 

As of June 30, 2020, we had access to (i) $173.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, of which $102.5 million is held by our foreign subsidiaries; and (ii) $285.0  million of unused corporate borrowing capacity under existing committed lines of credit with different commercial banks.

 

Our estimated capital needs for the remainder of 2020 include $207.0 million for capital expenditures on new projects under development or construction including storage projects, exploration activity and maintenance capital expenditures for our existing projects. In addition, $207.6 million will be needed for debt repayment, including $100.0 million repayment of short-term revolving line of credit that we assume will be renewed.

 

As of June 30, 2020, $100.0 million was outstanding under a credit agreement with one of the financial institutions as described below under "Credit Agreements".

 

We expect to finance these requirements with: (i) the sources of liquidity described above; (ii) positive cash flows from our operations; and (iii) future project financings and re-financings (including construction loans and tax equity). Management believes that, based on the current stage of implementation of our strategic plan, the sources of liquidity and capital resources described above will address our anticipated liquidity, capital expenditures, and other investment requirements.

 

As of June 30, 2020, we continue to maintain our assertion to no longer indefinitely reinvest foreign funds held by our foreign subsidiaries, with the exception of a certain balance held in Israel, and have accrued the incremental foreign withholding taxes. Accordingly, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, we included a foreign income tax expense of $3.1 million related to foreign withholding taxes on accumulated earnings of all of our foreign subsidiaries.

Restrictive Covenants

 

Our obligations under the credit agreements, the loan agreements, and the trust instrument governing the bonds described above, are unsecured, but we are subject to a negative pledge in favor of the banks and the other lenders and certain other restrictive covenants. These include, among other things, restraints on: (i) creating any floating charge or any permanent pledge, charge or lien over our assets without obtaining the prior written approval of the lender; (ii) guaranteeing the liabilities of any third party without obtaining the prior written approval of the lender; and (iii) selling, assigning, transferring, conveying or disposing of all or substantially all of our assets, or a change of control in our ownership structure. Some of the credit agreements, the term loan agreements, and the trust instrument contain cross-default provisions with respect to other material indebtedness owed by us to any third party. In some cases, we have agreed to maintain certain financial ratios, which are measured quarterly, such as: (i) equity of at least $600 million and in no event less than 25% of total assets; (ii) 12-month debt, net of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term bank deposits to Adjusted EBITDA ratio not to exceed 6.0; and (iii) dividend distributions not to exceed 35% of net income in any calendar year.  As of June 30, 2020: (i) total equity was $1,556.8 million and the actual equity to total assets ratio was 45.5% and (ii) the 12-month debt, net of cash, cash equivalents, to Adjusted EBITDA ratio was 3.0. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we distributed interim dividends in an aggregate amount of $11.3 million. The failure to perform or observe any of the covenants set forth in such agreements, subject to various cure periods, would result in the occurrence of an event of default and would enable the lenders to accelerate all amounts due under each such agreement.

 

As described above, we are currently in compliance with our covenants with respect to the credit agreements, the loan agreements and the trust instrument, and believe that the restrictive covenants, financial ratios and other terms of any of our full-recourse bank credit agreements will not materially impact our business plan or operations.

Liquidity Impact of Uncertain Tax Positions

 

The Company has a liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties in the amount of approximately $15.3 million as of June 30, 2020. This liability is included in long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet because we generally do not anticipate that settlement of the liability will require payment of cash within the next twelve months. We are not able to reasonably estimate when we will make any cash payments required to settle this liability.

Net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents

    96,724       4,144  

 

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

 

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $154.4 million, compared to $156.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The net change of  $1.7 million was primarily due to: (i) an increase in receivables of $25.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a decrease of $2.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, as a result of timing of collection from our customers; offset partially by (i) a net decrease of $21.7 million in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, net in our Product segment in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $10.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, as a result of timing in billings to our customers, and (ii) an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $10.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a decrease of $6.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, mainly due to timing of payments to our suppliers, partially offset by a withholding tax payment of approximately $8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $14 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to a distribution from OSL.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $159.0 million, compared to $114.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The principal factors that affected our net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were capital expenditures of $151.3 million, primarily for our facilities under construction that support our growth plan and an investment in an unconsolidated company of $7.8 million. The principal factor that affected our net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was capital expenditures of $114.9 million, primarily for our facilities under construction.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $101.4 million, compared to $37.6 million net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The principal factors that affected the net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were: (i) $79.4 million of proceeds from a senior unsecured bonds series 3; (ii) $50.0 million of proceeds from a senior unsecured loan; and (iii)  net proceeds of $59.5 million from our revolving credit lines with commercial banks which were withdrawn primarily to secure cash in hand in order to meet our capital needs in light of the uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by :(i) the repayment of commercial paper debt in the amount of $46.2 million; (ii) the repayment of long-term debt in the amount of $31.8 million; (iii) a $11.3 million cash dividend payment and (iv) $3.7 million cash paid to a noncontrolling interest. The principal factors that affected our net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were: (i) net payment of $105.9 million from our revolving credit lines with commercial banks which were used for capital expenditures, (ii) the repayment of long-term debt in the amount of $36.8 million; (iii) a $11.2 million cash dividend paid; and (iv) $7.8 million cash paid to noncontrolling interest, partially offset by: (i) $50 million of proceeds from a senior unsecured loan; and (ii) $41.5 million of proceeds from a term loan for our Olkaria 3 complex.

Non-GAAP Measures: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

We calculate EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for (i) termination fees, (ii) impairment of long-lived assets, (iii) write-off of unsuccessful exploration activities, (iv) any mark-to-market gains or losses from accounting for derivatives, (v) merger and acquisition transaction costs, (vi) stock-based compensation, (vii) gains or losses from extinguishment of liabilities, (viii) gains or losses on sales of property, plant and equipment and (ix) other unusual or non-recurring items. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP) and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net earnings as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a performance metric because it is a metric used by our Board of Directors and senior management in evaluating our financial performance. However, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do.

 

Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $25.3 million and 55.2 million, respectively, compared to $36.2 million and 64.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $97.9 million and $203.9 million, respectively, compared to $94.9 million and $196.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Capital Expenditures 

 

Our capital expenditures primarily relate to: (i) the development and construction of new power plants, (ii) the enhancement of our existing power plants; and (iii) investment in activities under our strategic plan.

 

The following is an overview of projects that are fully released for construction.

 

Heber Complex (California). We are currently in the process of repowering the Heber 1 and Heber 2 power plants. We are planning to replace steam turbine and old OEC units with new advanced technology equipment that will add a net capacity of 11 MW. Following these enhancements, we expect the capacity of the complex to reach 92 MW. Permitting, engineering and procurement are ongoing as well as manufacturing and site construction. We expect commercial operation in the second half of 2021.

 

CD 4 Project (California). We plan to develop a 30 MW project at the Mammoth complex on primarily BLM leases.We signed a Wholesale Distribution Access Tariff Cluster Large Generator Interconnection Agreement with Southern California Edison in December 2017. We  signed a 25-year PPA with SCPPA for 16 MW that will be sold to the City of Colton in California and we recently signed two additional  similar PPAs with SVCE and MBCP, each will purchase 7 MW (for a total of 14 MW) of power. Engineering and procurement are ongoing. Construction commencement is planned for the second half of 2020 pending receipt of permits. We expect commercial operation at the end of 2021.

 

49

 

Wister Solar (California). We are developing a 20MW AC solar PV project on the Wister site in California. We plan to install a Solar PV system and sell the electricity under a PPA with San Diego Gas & Electric.Engineering and procurement are ongoing. Permitting has been delayed due to COVID-19 implications. We expect the project to be completed in the second half of 2021.

 

McGinness Hills expansion (Nevada). We are expanding the McGinness Hills complex by 8 MW by adding an Ormat energy converter. Construction commenced and equipment delivery is planned for in the second half of 2020. We expect the project to be completed in 2021, subject to approval of the lender.

 

Dixie Meadows (Nevada). We are developing the 12MW Dixie Meadows geothermal power plant in Churchill County, Nevada.  Engineering and procurement has commenced. We are planning to sell the electricity generated under the Portfolio SCPPA PPA. Commercial operation is expected in 2022.

 

In addition, we are in the process of upgrading some of the equipment, such as turbines and pipelines at some of our operating power plants including Ormesa in California and Amatitlan in Guatemala.

 

The following is an overview of projects that are in initial stages of construction:

 

Carson Lake Project. We plan to develop between 10 MW to 15 MW at the Carson Lake project on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) leases located in Churchill County, Nevada. We signed a Small Generator Interconnection Agreement with NV Energy in December 2017. As of June 30, 2020, we are planning the drilling activity to begin next year.

 

We have budgeted approximately $414.0 million in capital expenditures for construction of new projects and enhancements to our existing power plants, of which we had invested $114.0 million as of June 30, 2020. We expect to invest approximately $120.0 million in 2020 and the remaining approximately $180.0 million thereafter.

 

In addition, we estimate approximately $87.0 million in additional capital expenditures in 2020 to be allocated as follows: (i) approximately $30.0 million for the exploration and development of new projects and enhancements of existing power plants that are not yet released for full construction; (ii) approximately $30.0 million for maintenance capital expenditures to our operating power plants including drilling in our Puna power plant; (iii) approximately $16.0 million for the construction and development of storage projects; and (iv) approximately $11.0 million for enhancements to our production facilities.

 

In the aggregate, we estimate our total capital expenditures for 2020 to be approximately $207.0 million.

 

Exposure to Market Risks

 

Based on current conditions, we believe that we have sufficient financial resources to fund our activities and execute our business plans. However, the cost of obtaining financing for our project needs may increase significantly or such financing may be difficult to obtain.

 

We, like other power plant operators, are exposed to electricity price volatility risk. Our exposure to such market risk is currently limited because many of our long-term PPAs (except for the 25 MW PPA for the Puna complex and the between 30 MW and 40 MW PPAs in the aggregate for the Heber 2 power plant in the Heber Complex, and the G2 power plant in the Mammoth Complex) have fixed or escalating rate provisions that limit our exposure to changes in electricity prices. Our energy storage projects sell on "merchant" and are exposed to changes in the electricity market prices.

 

The energy payments under the PPAs of the Heber 2 power plant in the Heber Complex and the G2 power plant in the Mammoth Complex are determined by reference to the relevant power purchaser’s Short Run Avoided Cost (“SRAC”). A decline in the price of natural gas will result in a decrease in the incremental cost that the power purchaser avoids by not generating its electrical energy needs from natural gas, or by reducing the price of purchasing its electrical energy needs from natural gas power plants, which in turn will reduce the energy payments that we may charge under the relevant PPA for these power plants. The Puna complex is currently benefiting from energy prices which are higher than the floor under the 25 MW PPA for the Puna complex.

 

50

 

As of June 30, 2020, 96.5% of our consolidated long-term debt was fixed rate debt and therefore was not subject to interest rate volatility risk. As of such date, 3.5% of our long-term debt was floating rate debt, exposing us to interest rate risk in connection therewith. As of June 30, 2020, $44.5 million of our long-term debt remained subject to interest rate risk.

 

We currently maintain our surplus cash in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits, money market securities and commercial paper (with a minimum investment grade rating of AA by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services).

 

Our cash equivalents are subject to interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their market value adversely impacted by a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. As a result of these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations because of changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that decline in market value because of changes in interest rates.

 

We are also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk, in particular the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus the Israeli shekel and euro. Risks attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates can arise when we or any of our foreign subsidiaries borrow funds or incur operating or other expenses in one type of currency but receive revenues in another. In such cases, an adverse change in exchange rates can reduce such subsidiary’s ability to meet its debt service obligations, reduce the amount of cash and income we receive from such foreign subsidiary, or increase such subsidiary’s overall expenses. In Kenya, the tax asset is recorded in Kenyan Shillings ("KES") similar to the tax liability, however any change in the exchange rate in the KES versus the USD has an impact on our financial results. Risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can also arise when the currency denomination of a particular contract is not the U.S. dollar. Substantially all of our PPAs in the international markets are either U.S. dollar-denominated or linked to the U.S. dollar except for our operations on Guadeloupe, where we own and operate the Boulliante power plant which sells its power under a Euro-denominated PPA with Électricité de France S.A. Our construction contracts from time to time contemplate costs which are incurred in local currencies. The way we often mitigate such risk is to receive part of the proceeds from the contract in the currency in which the expenses are incurred. Currently, we have forward contracts in place to reduce our foreign currency exposure and expect to continue to use currency exchange and other derivative instruments to the extent we deem such instruments to be the appropriate tool for managing such exposure.

 

We performed a sensitivity analysis on the fair values of our long-term debt obligations, and foreign currency exchange forward contracts. The foreign currency exchange forward contracts listed below principally relate to trading activities. The sensitivity analysis involved increasing and decreasing forward rates at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 by a hypothetical 10% and calculating the resulting change in the fair values.

 

At this time, the development of our strategic plan has not exposed us to any additional market risk. However, as the implementation of the plan progresses, we may be exposed to additional or different market risks.

Other long-term loans

 

In July 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), announced that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. It is unclear whether or not LIBOR will cease to exist at that time and/or whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it will continue to exist after 2021. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with a new SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) index calculated by short-term repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities.

 

The Company has evaluated the impact of the transition from LIBOR, and currently believes that the transition will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Effect of Inflation

 

We expect that inflation will not be a significant risk in the near term, given the current global economic conditions, however, that could change in the future. To address the possibility of rising inflation, some of our contracts include certain provisions that mitigate inflation risk.

 

In connection with the Electricity segment, none of our U.S. PPAs, including the SCPPA Portfolio PPA, are directly linked to the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). Inflation may directly impact an expense we incur for the operation of our projects, thereby increasing our overall operating costs and reducing our profit and gross margin. The negative impact of inflation would be partially offset by price adjustments built into some of our PPAs that could be triggered upon such occurrences. The energy payments pursuant to our PPAs for some of our power plants such as the Brady power plant, the Steamboat 2 and 3 power plants and the McGinness Complex increase every year through the end of the relevant terms of such agreements, although such increases are not directly linked to the CPI or any other inflationary index. Lease payments are generally fixed, while royalty payments are generally calculated as a percentage of revenues and therefore are not significantly impacted by inflation. In our Product segment, inflation may directly impact fixed and variable costs incurred in the construction of our power plants, thereby increasing our operating costs in the Product segment. We are more likely to be able to offset all or part of this inflationary impact through our project pricing. With respect to power plants that we build for our own electricity production, inflationary pricing may impact our operating costs which may be partially offset in the pricing of the new long-term PPAs that we negotiate.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Our credit risk is currently concentrated with the following major customers: Sierra Pacific Power Company and Nevada Power Company (subsidiaries of NV Energy), SCPPA and Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC). If any of these electric utilities fail to make payments under its PPAs with us, such failure would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition. Also, by implementing our multi-year strategic plan we may be exposed, by expanding our customer base, to different credit profile customers than our current customers.

 

Sierra Pacific Power Company and Nevada Power Company (subsidiaries of NV Energy, Inc.) accounted for 17.2% and 16.5% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 18.3% and 17.4% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Southern California Public Power Authority (“SCPPA”) accounted for 20.0% and 17.2% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 19.5% and 18.3% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Kenya Power and Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC") accounted for 16.0% and 16.6% of the Company's total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 15.7% and 16.0% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

 We have historically been able to collect on substantially all of our receivable balances. As of June 30, 2020, the amount overdue from KPLC was $54.8 million of which $8.8 million was paid in July 2020. These amounts represent an average of 81 days overdue. We believe we will be able to collect all past due amounts in Kenya. This belief is supported by the fact that in addition to KPLC's obligations under its power purchase agreement, we hold a support letter from the Government of Kenya that covers certain cases of KPLC non-payment (such as where caused by government actions/political events). In Honduras, we have been able to collect current charges from Empresa Nacional de Energía Eléctrica (“ENEE”) starting in May 2019. However, due to continuing restrictive measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic in Honduras, the Company may experience delays in collection. As of June 30, 2020, the total amount overdue from ENEE was $24.0 million of which $20.1 million relates to the period from October 2018 to April 2019 and the $4.0 million relates to February and March invoices that are overdue. In July 2020, we received payments of $0.7 million on account of such invoices. In view of the ongoing Honduran government support undertaking, the Company believes it will be able to collect past due amounts in Honduras.

 

Government Grants and Tax Benefits 

 

A comprehensive discussion on government grants and tax benefits is included in our 2019 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to this section in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The information appearing under the headings “Exposure to Market Risks” and “Concentration of Credit Risk” in Part I, Item 2 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is incorporated by reference herein.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

a. Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) required by Rules 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, as amended.  Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2020 as a result of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that existed at December 31, 2017 and has not been remediated by the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. 

 

Previously Identified Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

We previously disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report the following material weakness which still existed as of June 30, 2020. In connection with the change in our repatriation strategy and the related release of the U.S. income tax valuation allowance in the second quarter of 2017, we did not perform an effective risk assessment related to our internal controls over the accounting for income taxes.  As a result, we identified a deficiency in the design of our internal control over financial reporting related to our accounting for income taxes, which resulted in the restatements of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, and the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in a misstatement of the aforementioned balances and disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the interim or annual consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Our management has concluded that this deficiency constitutes a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Remediation Plan for Material Weakness 

 

Subsequent to the evaluation made in connection with filing our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, our management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, has continued the process of remediating the material weakness. In connection with the remediation process, we have:

 

 

performed an enhanced risk assessment related to our internal controls over the accounting for income taxes;

 

recruited additional tax personnel throughout the year, including a VP of Tax in January 2019 and a Director of Tax in September 2019;

 

engaged an external tax and accounting firm to assist in the preparation of our annual and quarterly income tax provision;

 

implemented specific control procedures for the review, analysis and reporting of our income tax accounts, including control procedures of projections that support the deferred tax assets and liabilities;

 

strengthened our income tax controls with improved documentation, communication and oversight.

 

We have made substantial progress in accordance with developing and implementing our remediation plan and we are improving our internal processes. The remaining tasks of our remediation plan includes the hiring of additional personnel, implementing automation of the key elements of the tax provision and modifying controls as applicable in respect of such tasks in order to reduce the risk of material misstatement. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to review, optimize and enhance our financial reporting controls and procedures accordingly. However, there can be no assurance that this will occur within 2020.

 

b.  Changes in internal control over financial reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting in the second quarter of 2020 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

 

The information required with respect to this item can be found under “Commitments and Contingencies” in Note 10 of notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report and is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

A comprehensive discussion of our other risk factors is included in the “Risk Factors” section of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 which was filed with the SEC on March 1, 2019. The risks described in our Form 10-K and herein are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

 

The global spread of COVID-19 pandemic may have an adverse impact and could adversely affect our financial results.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to control its spread have significantly curtailed the movement of people, goods and services worldwide. Governments around the world have ordered companies to limit or suspend non-essential operations and imposed operational and travel restrictions resulting in a decline in global economic activity and an increase in market volatility. We have implemented significant measures both to comply with government requirements and to preserve the health and safety of our employees. These measures include working remotely where possible and operating separate shifts in our power plants, manufacturing facilities and other locations while trying to continue operations as close to full capacity in all locations.

 

While we did not experience any material impact on our results of operations during the first quarter of 2020, we have started to experience impacts in the second quarter of 2020 which varied among our business segments:

 

 

In our Electricity segment almost all of our revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was generated under long term contracts and the majority have a fixed energy rate.  As a result, despite logistical and other challenges, we experienced limited impact of COVID-19 on our electricity segment. Nevertheless, on April 17, 2020, we received from Kenya Power & Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC") a notice declaring a force majeure event in Kenya due to the impact of COVID-19 and purporting to reduce the Olkaria complex’s contracted capacity from 150 MW to 133.9 MW. As a result of the force majeure provisions in the Power Purchase Agreement related to this facility, the notice had an immaterial impact on our expected revenue, as agreed also by KPLC. In addition, we experienced a higher rate of curtailments by KPLC in the Olkaria complex. The impact of the curtailments is limited as the structure of the PPA secures the vast majority  of our revenues with fixed capacity payments unrelated to the electricity actually consumed (in 2019 and six months ended June 30, 2020, capacity payments represented 70% and 75% of our revenues, respectively). On April 30, 2020, we also received from ENEE a notice declaring a force majeure event in Honduras due to the impact of COVID-19. We have not identified any impact on our consolidated financial statements as a result of this notice.  In addition, our future growth in the electricity segment would be adversely impacted by a lack of funding for projects and the implications of global and local restrictions on our ability to procure raw material and ship our products.   

 

 

In our Product segment, the economic downturn has adversely impacted customers’ purchasing decisions and travel restrictions have adversely impacted our sales and marketing efforts.  We experienced a decrease in our backlog that we believe was due to the impact of COVID-19.  We may face similar challenges in future periods in the event of a prolonged shutdown. 

 

 

Our Energy Storage and Management Services segment generate revenues mainly from the sale of the electricity ancillary services back to the energy markets based on the prevailing market price for the electricity or for the energy or ancillary services. There has been a decline in ancillary services prices  that was driven primarily by the impact of  COVID 19. This decline impacted negatively our energy storage facilities’ revenues. If the decline in ancillary prices continues, we may experience a further decline in our energy storage revenues. 

    

 

In addition, we experience delays in the permitting for new projects in all segments that may also cause a delay in those projects.

 

55

 

The extent to which COVID-19 ultimately impacts our business, operations, financial results and financial condition will depend on numerous evolving factors which are currently uncertain and cannot be predicted, including:

 

 

the duration and scope of the pandemic;

 

 

governmental, business and individuals’ actions taken in response;

 

 

the effect on our customers and customers’ demand for our services and products;

 

 

the effect on our suppliers and disruptions to the global supply chain;

 

 

our ability to sell and provide our services and products, including as a result of travel restrictions and people working from home;

 

 

disruptions to our operations resulting from the illness of any of our employees;

 

  our ability to oversees remote operation due to travel restrictions; 

 

 

restrictions or disruptions to transportation, including reduced availability of ground or air transport; and

 

 

decrease in electricity demand; and the ability of our customers to pay for our services and products.

 

In addition, the impact of COVID-19 on macroeconomic conditions may impact the proper functioning of financial and capital markets, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity and interest rates. Any of the events described above could amplify the other risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or stock price.
