RICHMOND, Calif., Feb. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SunPower Corp. (NASDAQ:SPWR), a leading solar technology and energy services provider, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ending December 31, 2023.

"With the recent infusion of capital, SunPower is focused on driving positive free cash flow and profitability," said Peter Faricy, SunPower CEO. "This is a new opportunity for SunPower to reinforce our strong foundation as we continue to navigate an uncertain market in early 2024. With this funding and industry tailwinds of extended tax credits and lower equipment costs, we believe SunPower is positioned to execute on maximizing the value proposition of solar and storage for our customers."

On February 15, the company announced it raised $175 million in new capital financing from TotalEnergies and Global Infrastructure Partners, including $45 million of prior bridge financing, $80 million in new investment, and $50 million that is available to be borrowed upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. As a part of the transaction, the Company also received $25 million of revolving debt capacity as part of new long-term waivers from key financial partners.

"$48 million of the Adjusted EBITDA delta between guidance and our final reporting can be attributed to restatement impacts and items we believe are one-time charges or not expected to recur," said Beth Eby, SunPower CFO. "For 2024, we are focused on profitability and free cash flow, and we expect to be cash flow positive in the second half of 2024 and beyond.  We will provide additional guidance later in the year, after we assess the implications of the recapitalization and restructuring."
