Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

SunPower Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “SunPower,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a leading residential solar technology and energy services provider that offers fully integrated solar, storage, and home energy solutions to customers in North America. Through a multi-channel strategy of distributed dealer network, SunPower direct sales channel, and new home builder partnerships, we provide customers control over electricity consumption, resiliency during power outages, and cost savings, while also reducing carbon emissions and contributing to a more sustainable grid.

SunPower was a majority-owned subsidiary of TotalEnergies Solar INTL SAS (“Total,” formerly Total Solar International SAS) and TotalEnergies Gaz & Electricité Holdings France SAS (“Total Gaz,” formerly Total Gaz Electricité Holdings France SAS), each a subsidiary of TotalEnergies SE (“TotalEnergies SE,” formerly Total SE). On September 12, 2022, Total and Total Gaz sold to GIP III Sol Acquisition, LLC (“GIP Sol”) 50% less one unit of the equity interests in a newly formed Delaware limited liability company, Sol Holding, LLC (“HoldCo”), which is now the record holder of all of the shares of SunPower common stock (see Note 2. Transactions with Total and TotalEnergies SE).

Liquidity

We currently anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our obligations over the next 12 months from the date of issuance of our financial statements. We continuously evaluate our liquidity and capital resources, including our access to external capital, to help ensure we can finance our future capital requirements.

Basis of Presentation and Preparation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“United States” or “U.S.,” and such accounting principles, “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and include the accounts of SunPower, all of our subsidiaries and special purpose entities, as appropriate under U.S. GAAP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial information included herein is unaudited, and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The January 1, 2023 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from SunPower’s audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 10, 2023, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in SunPower's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023. The operating results for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal year 2023, or for any other future period.

We have a 52-to-53-week fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Accordingly, every fifth or sixth year will be a 53-week fiscal year. Both the current fiscal year, fiscal 2023, and prior fiscal year, fiscal 2022, are 52-week fiscal years. The second quarter of fiscal 2023 ended on July 2, 2023, while the second quarter of fiscal 2022 ended on July 3, 2022.

Management Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Our actual financial results could materially differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, specifically nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, standalone selling price of performance obligations, and variable consideration; credit losses, including estimating macroeconomic factors affecting historical recovery rate of receivables; inventory write-downs; long-lived assets and goodwill impairment, specifically estimates for valuation assumptions including discount rates and future cash flows; fair value of investments, including equity investments for which we apply the fair value option and other financial instruments; actuarial estimates related to our self-insured health benefits; valuation of goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination; valuation of contingent consideration in a business combination; valuation of contingencies such as warranty and litigation; the incremental borrowing rate used in discounting of lease liabilities; the fair value of indemnities provided to customers and other parties; and income taxes and tax valuation allowances.

Presentation and disclosure corrections

We determined that certain charges related to indemnifications on warranty obligations and legal costs we have retained in connection with the sale of our C&I Solutions business to TotalEnergies Renewables should have been classified as discontinued operations instead of continuing operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended April 2, 2023, warranty claims of $6.8 million, and legal costs of $0.5 million, previously included in the financial statement line items “total cost of revenues” and “sales, general, and administrative expense”, respectively, should be included in the line item “net (loss) income from discontinued operations.” Accordingly, the prior presentation for the three months ended April 2, 2023 has been corrected in the six months ended July 2, 2023. The correction has no effect on “net (loss) income attributable to stockholders,” the condensed consolidated balance sheets, the condensed consolidated statements of equity, or the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Segment Information

We operate in a single operating segment, providing solar power systems and services to residential customers. While our chief executive officer, as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), reviews financial information by different functions and revenue streams, he considers the business on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and reviewing overall business performance.

Summary of Selected Significant Accounting Policies

The following significant accounting policies are updates to our significant accounting policies from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023 for the full list of our significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes or updates to our significant accounting policies disclosed in the Form 10-K except as updated below.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from contracts with customers when we have completed our performance obligations under an identified contract. The revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration for the corresponding performance obligations for the goods and services transferred.

Solar Power Systems and Component Sales

A majority of our revenue is generated by sales of fully functioning solar power systems to our customers. We sell our products through a network of installing and non-installing dealers and resellers, as well as our internal sales team. Usually, our performance obligation is to design and install a fully functioning solar energy system. We recognize revenue when the solar power system is fully installed and the final permit is received from the authority having jurisdiction, as we deem our performance obligation under the contract to be complete at such time, and the customer retains all of the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the solar power system. In situations when we are not responsible for construction and installation of solar power systems, usually when the sales are made by one of our installing dealers or resellers, we recognize revenue when the components of the solar power system are delivered at the customer site. All costs to obtain and fulfill contracts associated with system sales are expensed as a cost of revenue when we have fulfilled our performance obligations.

Table of Contents

Revenue is generally recognized at transaction price, net of costs of financing, or other consideration paid to the customers that is not in exchange for a distinct good or service. Also, our arrangements may contain clauses that can either increase or decrease the transaction price. Variable consideration is estimated at each measurement date at its most likely amount to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and true-ups are applied prospectively as such estimates change.

We also provide solar power systems to our customers in the form of 20-year lease agreements which are entered into by the customer with our third-party leasing partners. These third-party leasing partners are special-purpose entities that we do not control or consolidate. We recognize revenue when the system is fully installed, when permit to operate is given by the local utility company, and the solar system has produced meterable quantities of electricity, as we deem our performance obligation under the contract to be complete at such time.

Transfers of financial assets

In April 2023, to support the expansion of our residential solar and storage loan funding capacity, we entered into a series of agreements to sell solar loan receivables to a special-purpose entity in our existing joint venture, SunStrong, with Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc. (“HASI”). Under the agreements, we have secured financing commitments to fund more than $450.0 million for our residential solar and storage loan program, including a $300.0 million revolving credit facility from Credit Agricole Corporate & Investment Bank (“CA-CIB”). The CA-CIB credit revolver serves as a warehouse facility for SunStrong to temporarily finance solar assets prior to arranging long-term financings, such as asset-backed securities. The revolving warehouse facility will allow SunStrong to fund the acquisition of solar loans entered into by SunPower Financial's customers and issue asset-backed securities on an ongoing basis.

In May 2023, to further support the expansion of our residential solar and storage loan funding capacity, we also entered into a series of agreements to sell solar loan receivables to a newly created special-purpose trust beneficially owned by one or more affiliates of KKR Credit Advisors (US) LLC (“KKR Credit”). Under the agreements, we have secured financing commitments to fund up to $550.0 million for our residential solar and storage loan program over a 15-month term, with annual renewal options.

These agreements to sell solar loan receivables to third-parties are accounted for in accordance with ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing. We make judgments, based in part, on supporting legal opinions, on whether these entities should be consolidated as a variable interest entity, as defined in ASC 810, Consolidation, and whether the transfers to these entities are accounted for as a sale of a financial asset or a secured borrowing under ASC 860 (see Note 9. Equity Investments for a discussion of our conclusion under ASC 810).

Under ASC 860, for our loan receivables that are held for sale and the transfer of the financial assets to be considered a sale, the asset must be legally isolated from the transferor and the transferee must have actual and effective control of the asset. When the sale criteria are met, we, as the transferor, derecognize the lower of cost or fair value of the financial asset transferred and recognize a net gain or loss on the sale based on the excess of the proceeds received (less any transaction costs) over the carrying value or fair value. We do not retain actual or effective control in the transferred loan receivables, and therefore, the transfers are accounted for as a sale with the gain or loss from the sales included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The gain or loss, and cash proceeds, related to the sales of the financial assets are classified as operating activities in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Our loan receivables are held for sale and recorded at carrying value when purchased, equal to the purchase price plus fees incurred. We subsequently measure our loan receivables held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value on an aggregate portfolio basis until the loan receivables are sold. Our loan receivables held for sale are typically sold within 30 days of origination. If the purchased loans do not meet the eligibility criteria to be sold, the loan receivables are transferred to held to maturity and included at amortized cost within “accounts receivable, net” and “other long-term assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. These loan receivable agreements held to maturity have a term of typically 20 - 25 years and relate to loans that our customers enter into to pay for their solar power systems.

Note 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH TOTAL AND TOTALENERGIES SE

In June 2011, Total completed a cash tender offer to acquire 60% of our then outstanding shares of common stock at a price of $23.25 per share, for a total cost of approximately $1.4 billion. In December 2011, we entered into a Private Placement Agreement with Total, under which Total purchased, and we issued and sold, 18.6 million shares of our common stock for a purchase price of $8.80 per share, thereby increasing Total's ownership to approximately 66% of our outstanding common stock as of that date.

On May 24, 2022, Total and Total Gaz (collectively, “Sellers”) agreed to sell 50% less one unit of the equity interests in HoldCo, which upon closing of such transaction would be the record holder of all of the shares of our common stock held by Sellers, to GIP Sol (and such transaction, the “Transaction”).

Table of Contents

On September 12, 2022, Sellers closed the Transaction. In connection with the completion of the Transaction, TotalEnergies Renewables, GIP Sol, and HoldCo entered into a Letter Agreement, dated September 12, 2022, concerning certain governance rights with respect to HoldCo and the shares of our common stock held directly by HoldCo. Specifically, TotalEnergies Renewables and GIP Sol agreed to, among other things, take all actions necessary to cause HoldCo to designate and elect to our board of directors (the “Board”) such individuals as HoldCo is entitled to appoint pursuant to the Affiliation Agreement; provided, however, that for so long as HoldCo is entitled to appoint at least five directors to our Board, GIP Sol shall have the right to appoint two of such five directors. The Letter Agreement also contained certain provisions on voting and on the transfer of HoldCo interests and common stock of the Company.

As of July 2, 2023, ownership of our outstanding common stock by TotalEnergies SE and its affiliates, and GIP Sol, was 50.2%.

Sale of C&I Solutions Business

On May 31, 2022, pursuant to the terms of the Definitive Agreement we signed with TotalEnergies Renewables on February 6, 2022, TotalEnergies Renewables acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of our C&I Solutions business. The preliminary purchase price of $190.0 million was subject to certain adjustments, including cash, indebtedness, and an estimated closing date working capital adjustment. Upon closing, we received net cash consideration of $149.2 million based on the estimated net assets of the business on that date. As of the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we recorded a payable of $7.0 million to Total, based on our review of the closing date working capital and our submission of the closing statement. On October 25, 2022, we received a notice of disagreement from TotalEnergies Renewables with respect to the closing statement. As set forth in the Definitive Agreement, we appointed an independent accountant to adjudicate the amount owed under the closing statement. On April 12, 2023, the independent accountant issued its final and binding determination with respect to the disputed items and an additional $23.9 million was deemed in favor of TotalEnergies Renewables. We recorded a payable of $30.9 million in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 2, 2023, and such amount was paid on April 19, 2023.

Affiliation Agreement

In April 2011, we and Total entered into an Affiliation Agreement that governs the relationship between Total and us (the “Affiliation Agreement”). Until the expiration of a standstill period specified in the Affiliation Agreement (the “Standstill Period”), and subject to certain exceptions, Total, TotalEnergies SE, and any of their respective affiliates and certain other related parties (collectively, the “Total Group”) may not effect, seek, or enter into discussions with any third party regarding any transaction that would result in the Total Group beneficially owning our shares in excess of certain thresholds, or request us or our independent directors, officers, or employees to amend or waive any of the standstill restrictions applicable to the Total Group. The Standstill Period ends when Total holds less than 15% ownership of us.

The Affiliation Agreement imposes certain limitations on the Total Group’s ability to seek to effect a tender offer or merger to acquire 100% of our outstanding voting power and imposes certain limitations on the Total Group's ability to transfer 40% or more of our outstanding shares or voting power to a single person or group that is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of TotalEnergies SE. During the Standstill Period, no member of the Total Group may, among other things, solicit proxies or become a participant in an election contest relating to the election of directors to our Board.

The Affiliation Agreement provides Total with the right to maintain its percentage ownership in connection with any new securities issued by us, and Total may also purchase shares on the open market or in private transactions with disinterested stockholders, subject in each case to certain restrictions.

The Affiliation Agreement also imposes restrictions with respect to our and our Board’s ability to take certain actions, including specifying certain actions that require approval by the directors other than the directors appointed by Total and other actions that require stockholder approval by Total.

On April 19, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the Affiliation Agreement with Total (the “April Affiliation Agreement Amendment”). The April Affiliation Agreement Amendment provided that our Board would include eleven members, composed of our president and chief executive officer, our immediate past chief executive officer, Tom Werner, six directors designated by Total, and three non-Total-designated directors. If the ownership of our voting securities by Total, together with the controlled subsidiaries of TotalEnergies SE, declined below certain thresholds, the number of members of the Board that Total was entitled to designate would be reduced as set forth in the Affiliation Agreement. Pursuant to the April Affiliation Agreement Amendment, Mr. Werner resigned from his position as a member of the Board on November 1, 2021. On October 29, 2021, we entered into an additional amendment to the Affiliation Agreement (the “October Affiliation Agreement

Table of Contents

Amendment”), which provided that our Board would remain at eleven members until March 31, 2022 and allowed for the appointment of one additional independent director to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Werner’s resignation from the Board, which was filled as of December 31, 2021. The October Affiliation Agreement Amendment further provided that, after March 31, 2022, the Board would revert to nine members, at which time one independent director and one Total designee would resign from the Board. As previously disclosed, on March 31, 2022, one independent director and one Total designee resigned from the Board, and the Board reverted to nine members as of such date.

In accordance with the Letter Agreement entered into by TotalEnergies Renewables, GIP Sol, and HoldCo on September 12, 2022, GIP had the right to appoint two designees to our Board. On September 23, 2022, two Total designees resigned from the Board, and on September 26, 2022, the Board appointed two GIP designees.

4.00% Debentures Due 2023

In December 2015, we issued $425.0 million in principal amount of our 4.00% debentures due 2023. An aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million of the 4.00% debentures due 2023 was acquired by Total. On January 17, 2023, we repaid the outstanding principal amount of $425.0 million of our 4.00% debentures due 2023, $100.0 million of which was held by TotalEnergies, as well as the remaining interest on the 4.00% debentures due 2023 of $8.5 million which was payable upon maturity.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets represent accounts receivable unbilled for transactions where revenue has been recognized in advance of billing the customer. Revenue may be recognized in advance of billing the customer, resulting in an amount recorded to “contract assets” or “accounts receivable, net” depending on the expected timing of payment for such unbilled accounts receivable. Once we have an unconditional right to consideration, we typically bill our customer and reclassify the “contract assets” to “accounts receivable, net.” Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and customer advances, which represent consideration received from a customer prior to transferring control of goods or services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract. Total contract assets and contract liabilities balances as of the respective dates are as follows:


	As of
(In thousands)	July 2, 2023		January 1, 2023
Contract assets	$	49,666	$	51,001

During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we recognized revenue of $82.1 million and $91.4 million that was included in contract liabilities as of April 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. During the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, we recognized revenue of $40.0 million and $38.1 million that was included in contract liabilities as of April 3, 2022 and January 2, 2022.

As of July 2, 2023, we have entered into contracts with customers for sales of solar systems and components for an aggregate transaction price of $755.4 million, the substantial majority of which we expect to recognize over the next 12 months.

Table of Contents

On October 4, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Blue Raven Solar Holdings, LLC (“Blue Raven”) and 35% of the issued and outstanding membership interests in Albatross Software, LLC, an affiliate of Blue Raven. Goodwill presented on our condensed consolidated financial statements represents goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Blue Raven.

We test goodwill impairment at least annually during the last day of the third fiscal quarter, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of our reporting unit to the book value (including goodwill). We have the option to perform a qualitative assessment of goodwill prior to completing a quantitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. After assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we concluded that as of October 2, 2022, the date our last qualitative test was performed, it was more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit with goodwill was greater than the book value and, therefore, that there is no goodwill impairment.

Note 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement (observable inputs are the preferred basis of valuation):

•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 — Measurements are inputs that are observable for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1.

•Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require management inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

We measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during any presented period.

The following tables summarize our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Money market funds

During fiscal 2022, we entered into investments in money market funds with Bank of America. As of July 2, 2023, we recorded an amount of $45.0 million within “cash and cash equivalents” in our consolidated balance sheets for our investments held in the money market funds. The money market funds are classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as we value the funds using observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for securities with identical characteristics.

Loan receivables held for sale, net

Loan receivables held for sale are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at amortized cost, and subsequently measured at the lower of cost or fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period. Fair value of our loan receivables held for sale is determined based on the anticipated sale price of the solar loan receivables to third-parties. The loan receivables held for sale are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as the primary component of the price is obtained from observable values of loan receivables with similar terms and characteristics.

Equity investments with fair value option (“FVO”)

We have elected the FVO in accordance with the guidance in ASC 825, Financial Instruments, for our investment in the SunStrong Capital Holdings, LLC (“SunStrong”), Dorado Development Partners, LLC (“Dorado DevCo”), and SunStrong Partners, LLC (“SunStrong Partners”) joint ventures, to mitigate volatility in reported earnings that results from the use of different measurement attributes (see Note 9. Equity Investments). We initially computed the fair value for our investments consistent with the methodology and assumptions that market participants would use in their estimates of fair value with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist. The fair value computation is updated using the same methodology on an annual basis, during the third fiscal quarter, considering material changes in the business of SunStrong, Dorado DevCo, and SunStrong Partners or other inputs. The investments are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because we estimate the fair value of the investments using the income approach based on the discounted cash flow method which considered estimated future financial performance, including assumptions for, among others, forecasted contractual lease income, lease expenses, residual value of these lease assets, and long-term discount rates, and forecasted default rates over the lease and loan term and discount rates, some of which require significant judgment by management and are not based on observable inputs.

The following table summarizes movements in equity investments for the six months ended July 2, 2023. There were no internal movements between Level 1 or Level 2 fair value measurements to or from Level 3 fair value measurements for the six months ended July 2, 2023.

value based on the contracted systems in place in the years being projected. Significant increases (decreases) in the residual value in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Equity investments with readily determinable fair value

In connection with the divestment of our microinverter business to Enphase on August 9, 2018, we received 7.5 million shares of Enphase common stock (NASDAQ: ENPH). The common stock received was recorded as an equity investment with readily determinable fair value (Level 1), with changes in fair value recognized in net income in accordance with ASU 2016-01 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

On January 5, 2023, we sold our remaining 0.5 million shares of Enphase common stock in open market transactions for cash proceeds of $121.7 million, with a loss of $10.8 million, which was recorded within “other, net” in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended July 2, 2023. During the six months ended July 3, 2022, we sold one million shares of Enphase common stock in open market transactions for net cash proceeds of $149.8 million, and recorded a gain of $1.3 million.

Interest Rate Swaps

Credit Suisse Interest Rate Swap

In connection with the entry into our loan and security purchase agreement with Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch, and other financial institutions to finance our retail installment contract receivables on June 30, 2022, we also entered into interest rate swaps under the agreement, which convert the floating rate loan to a fixed rate. The interest rate swaps were entered into to mitigate the risks associated with interest rate volatility. The swaps terminate in September of 2026, unless we terminate with the maturity of the loan, subject to any early termination costs.

The interest rate swaps qualify as derivatives in accordance with the guidance in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using a discounted cash flow model that incorporates an assessment of the risk of non-performance by the interest rate swap counterparty and an evaluation of credit risk in valuing derivative instruments. The valuation model uses various inputs including contractual terms, interest rate curves, credit spreads and measures of volatility.

As of July 2, 2023, we recorded derivative assets of $2.5 million, within “other long-term assets” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the interest rate swaps. These interest rate swap derivatives not designated as hedges had an aggregate notional value of $67.9 million as of July 2, 2023. In addition, we recognize changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps immediately, and recorded a gain of $1.1 million and $0.2 million within "interest expense" in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023.

Bank of America Interest Rate Swap

In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we entered into interest rate swaps in our SunPower FinancialTM business with Bank of America, which converts the fixed rate loans entered into by SunPower Financial's customers to floating rates. The interest rate swaps were entered into to mitigate the interest rate volatility risks associated with the timing lag between when the customer enters into these fixed rate loans and when the loan is funded and sold to a third-party investor. The swaps terminate beginning in September of 2023 through February of 2024.

As of July 2, 2023, we recorded derivative assets of $0.1 million, within “prepaid expenses and other current assets” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the interest rate swaps. These interest rate swap derivatives not designated as hedges had an aggregate notional value of $118.0 million as of July 2, 2023. In addition, we recognize changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps immediately, and record such changes within “total revenues” in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. We recorded a gain of $2.5 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023.

Retail installment contract receivables, net

The aggregate carrying value of our long-term retail installment contracts as of July 2, 2023 was $104.1 million, included within “accounts receivable, net” and “other long-term assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We measure the retail installment contracts using the amortized cost method, where the significant financing component amount is deferred and recognized as revenue over the contract term. The fair value of these receivables as of July 2, 2023 was $77.5 million. The fair value was determined using a third-party investor determined formula that starts with initial investor pricing by product, adjusted to account for the fair value impact relating to any changes in market spreads based on Level 2 inputs for the relevant benchmark interest rate and credit spread, as reported by Bloomberg.

The future purchase obligations presented above primarily consist of commitments to purchase photovoltaic modules pursuant to the supply agreements with Maxeon Solar entered into on February 14, 2022 and December 31, 2022, as well as commitments to purchase Module-Level Power Electronics (“MLPEs”) supplied by one vendor.

On April 5, 2023, we entered into a new Master Supply Agreement with Waaree Energies Ltd. (“Waaree”) for the purchase of various photovoltaic modules and components to be used in our residential systems. On May 25, 2023, we terminated the Master Supply Agreement with Waaree, including all outstanding purchase orders, and the parties are discussing the disposition of work-in-progress at the time of termination. Waaree products continue to be warranted by Waaree in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Master Supply Agreement.

We review the terms of all our long-term supply agreements annually and assess the need for any accruals for estimated losses on adverse purchase commitments, such as lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments that will not be recovered by future sales prices, forfeiture of advanced deposits and liquidated damages, as necessary.

Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement entered into by us and TotalEnergies Renewables in connection with the sale of our C&I Solutions business, we agreed to indemnify TotalEnergies Renewables for certain projects that were sold as part of our business prior to the sale. During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we recorded an additional $1.9 million and $8.7 million of warranty expenses related to our indemnifications of TotalEnergies Renewables, respectively, which is included within “net (loss) income from discontinued operations attributable to stockholders” on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Liabilities Associated with Uncertain Tax Positions

Total liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions were $12.9 million and $12.3 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. These amounts are included within “other long-term liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets in their respective periods as they are not expected to be paid within the next 12 months. Due to the complexity and uncertainty associated with our tax positions, we cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the period in which cash settlement, if any, would be made for our liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions in other long-term liabilities.

Indemnifications

We are a party to various agreements under which we may be obligated to indemnify the counterparty with respect to certain matters. Typically, these obligations arise in connection with contracts and license agreements or the sale of assets, under which we customarily agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of warranties, representations and covenants related to such matters as title to assets sold, negligent acts, damage to property, validity of certain intellectual property rights, non-infringement of third-party rights, and certain tax-related matters including indemnification to customers under Section 48(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, regarding solar commercial investment tax credits (“ITCs”) and U.S. Treasury Department (“U.S. Treasury”) cash grant payments under Section 1603 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (each a “Cash Grant”). Further, in connection with our sale of residential lease assets in fiscal 2018 to SunStrong, we provide Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc. (“Hannon Armstrong”) indemnification related to cash flow losses arising from a recapture of California property taxes on account of a change in ownership, recapture of federal tax attributes and cash flow losses from leases that do not generate the promised savings to homeowners. The maximum exposure to loss arising from the indemnification for SunStrong is limited to the consideration received for the solar power systems. In each of these circumstances, payment by us is typically subject to the other party making a claim to us that is contemplated by and valid under the indemnification provisions of the particular contract, which provisions are typically contract-specific, as well as bringing the claim under the procedures specified in the particular contract. These procedures typically allow us to challenge the other party’s claims or, in case of breach of intellectual property representations or covenants, to control the defense or settlement of any third-party claims brought against the other party. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of activity (typically to replace or correct the products or terminate the agreement with a refund to the other party), duration or amount. In some instances, we may have recourse against third parties or insurance covering certain payments made by us.

Table of Contents

In certain circumstances, we are contractually obligated to compensate customers and investors for losses they may suffer as a result of reductions in benefits received under ITCs and U.S. Treasury Cash Grant programs. The indemnity expires in conjunction with the statute of limitation and recapture periods in accordance with the underlying laws and regulations for such ITCs and related benefits. We apply for ITCs and Cash Grant incentives based on guidance provided by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the U.S. Treasury, which include assumptions regarding the fair value of the qualified solar power systems, among others. Certain of our development agreements, sale-leaseback arrangements, and financing arrangements with tax equity investors incorporate assumptions regarding the future level of incentives to be received, which in some instances may be claimed directly by our customers and investors. Generally, such obligations would arise as a result of reductions to the value of the underlying solar power systems as assessed by the IRS. At each balance sheet date, we assess and recognize, when applicable, the potential exposure from these obligations based on all the information available at that time, including any audits undertaken by the IRS. The maximum potential future payments that we could have to make under this obligation would depend on the difference between the eligible basis claimed on the tax filing for the solar energy systems sold or transferred to indemnified parties and the values that the IRS may determine as the eligible basis for the systems for purposes of claiming ITCs or Cash Grants. We use the eligible basis for tax filing purposes determined with the assistance of independent third-party appraisals to determine the ITCs that are passed through to and claimed by the indemnified parties. We continue to retain certain indemnities, specifically, around ITCs, Cash Grants and California property taxes, even after the underlying portfolio of assets is sold to a third party. For contracts that have such indemnification provisions, we recognize a liability under ASC 460, Guarantees, for the estimated premium that would be required by a guarantor to issue the same guarantee in a standalone arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated party. We recognize such liabilities at the greater of the fair value of the indemnity or the contingent liability required to be recognized under ASC 450, Contingencies. We initially estimate the fair value of any such indemnities provided based on the cost of insurance policies that cover the underlying risks being indemnified and may purchase such policies to mitigate our exposure to potential indemnification payments. After an indemnification liability is recorded, we derecognize such amount typically upon expiration or settlement of the arrangement. As of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, our provision was $8.2 million, primarily for tax-related indemnifications, of which $4.9 million was recorded within “contract liabilities, net of current portion,” “accrued liabilities,” and “other long-term liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to our indemnifications with TotalEnergies Renewables.

SunPower is party to various supply agreements with Hemlock Semiconductor Operations, LLC (f/k/a Hemlock Semiconductor Corporation) and its affiliate, Hemlock Semiconductor, LLC, (collectively, the “Hemlock Agreements”), for the procurement of polysilicon. In connection with the Spin-off of Maxeon Solar, SunPower and Maxeon Solar entered into an agreement pursuant to which Maxeon Solar received the benefit of SunPower’s rights under the Hemlock Agreements (including SunPower’s deposits and advanced payments thereunder) and, in return, Maxeon Solar agreed to perform all of SunPower’s existing and future obligations under the Hemlock Agreements, including all take-or-pay obligations (the “Back-to-Back Agreement”). As of the first quarter of 2023, Maxeon Solar's commitment under the Hemlock Agreement was finalized. As of July 2, 2023, there are no further payment obligations remaining under the Hemlock Agreements or the Back-to-Back Agreement.

Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement entered into by us and Maxeon Solar, we agreed to indemnify Maxeon Solar for any liabilities arising out of certain existing litigation relating to businesses contributed to Maxeon Solar in connection with the Spin-off. We expect to be actively involved in managing this litigation together with Maxeon Solar. The indemnity qualifies for the criteria for accounting under the guidance in ASC 460, and we have recorded the liability of litigation of $2.9 million as of July 2, 2023.

In addition, as of July 2, 2023, we have retained a total of $29.8 million of warranty reserves related to our indemnification with TotalEnergies Renewables in connection with the sale of our C&I Solutions business, which is included within “accrued liabilities” and “other long-term liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Legal Matters

We are party to various litigation matters and claims, including but not limited to intellectual property, environmental, and employment matters, that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While we believe that the ultimate outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on us, their outcomes are not determinable and negative outcomes may adversely affect our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

Note 9. EQUITY INVESTMENTS

Our equity investments consist of equity investments with readily determinable fair value, investments without readily determinable fair value, equity investments accounted for using the fair value option, and equity method investments.

Table of Contents

Our share of earnings (losses) from equity investments accounted for under the equity method is reflected as “Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated investees” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Mark-to-market gains and losses on equity investments with readily determinable fair value are reflected as “other, net” under other income (expense), net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The carrying value of our equity investments, classified as “other long-term assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, are as follows:

Equity investments without readily determinable fair value

In February 2022, we made an equity investment in OhmConnect, Inc. (“OhmConnect”). We accounted for the investment as an equity investment without readily determinable fair value in accordance with the guidance in ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities.

In fiscal 2022, we launched our Dealer Accelerator Program to help speed the adoption of renewable energy across the U.S. by making minority investments in solar dealers to advance their growth in coordination with the rapid growth of their direct business. As part of the program, dealers receive preferred access to SunPower solar, EV charging equipment, battery storage, and financial products offerings. In addition, we provide the dealers with enhanced lead generation and business strategy support.

During fiscal 2022, we entered into four equity investments as part of the Dealer Accelerator Program. The equity investments made were in Sea Bright Solar, Inc for an equity interest of 20.0%, Freedom Solar Holdings, LLC, for an equity interest of 4.5%, EmPower CES, LLC for an equity interest of 20.0% and Renova Energy Corp. for an equity interest of 10.6%.

In April 2023, as part of the Dealer Accelerator Program, we entered into an equity investment with LTL LED, LLC, d/b/a Wolf River Electric LLC (“Wolf River”). The investment included a cash payment for an equity interest of 16.7%.

All of these equity investments were accounted for as equity method investments without readily determinable fair value in accordance with the guidance in ASC 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures, given the material intra-entity transactions that exist under our exclusive supplier agreements as a result of our investments. We recognize our earnings from our equity method investments in the fiscal quarter after the corresponding earnings are recognized by the investee, and recorded earnings from equity method investments of $0.3 million and $0.6 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to no earnings or losses from equity method investments during the three and six months ended July 3, 2022. In addition, during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we received a dividend from one of our investees in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.7 million.

Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”)

A VIE is an entity that has either (i) insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (ii) equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest.

We follow guidance on the consolidation of VIEs that requires companies to utilize a qualitative approach to determine whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The process for identifying the primary beneficiary of a VIE requires consideration of the factors that indicate a party has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the investees' economic performance, including powers granted to the investees' governing board and, to a certain extent, a company's economic interest in the investee. We analyze our investments in VIEs and classify them as either unconsolidated VIEs or consolidated VIEs (refer to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023 for further details on our various VIE arrangements).

Unconsolidated VIEs

In March 2022, we entered into a joint venture with Hannon Armstrong and SunStrong to form Dorado DevCo, a jointly-owned entity, to hold our residential lease solar power projects. Similar to our prior joint ventures for residential lease assets, SunPower and Hannon Armstrong will make total capital contributions of up to $15.1 million into Dorado DevCo for 50% effective equity interest, each. SunStrong, our existing joint venture with Hannon Armstrong, was appointed as a manager of the entity. We also entered into a development asset purchase agreement to provide development services for solar power systems sold into the fund.

With respect to our interest in Dorado DevCo, we determined there is not sufficient equity at risk in the joint venture, thus, we determined the joint venture is a VIE as considered under the guidance in ASC 810. Based on the assessment of the required criteria for consolidation, we determined that SunStrong, as the manager of Dorado DevCo, has the power to make decisions over activities that significantly affect Dorado DevCo and subsidiaries. We and Hannon Armstrong do not have the power to unilaterally make decisions that affect the performance of the investee, and we do not have kick-out rights to unilaterally buyout the other party's equity interests, while Hannon Armstrong has a right to purchase our equity interest of the investee. In addition, much of our exposure to absorb the losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE, or the right to receive the economic interest from the VIE, is in our capacity as a developer and service provider, where we provide development services at market terms. Therefore, we concluded we are not the primary beneficiary of the investee, and we do not consolidate.

During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we made $5.7 million and $7.1 million of capital contributions in the equity method investee, respectively. The investment contributed to our equity investment balance in SunStrong and is classified in “other long-term assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In April 2023, to support the expansion of our solar loan funding capacity, we entered into a series of agreements to sell solar loans to a special-purpose entity within our existing joint venture, SunStrong. The new special-purpose entity is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SunStrong. SunPower and Hannon Armstrong will make total capital contributions of up to $24.2 million into SunStrong for 51% and 49% effective equity interest, respectively. In these agreements, we serve as the primary or master servicer of the special-purpose entity, however, as the servicer, we do not have the power to make significant decisions impacting the performance of the entity.

With respect to our interest in the special-purpose entity, we determined there is not sufficient equity at risk in the entity, thus, we determined the entity is a VIE as considered under the guidance in ASC 810. Based on the assessment of the required criteria for consolidation, we determined that SunStrong, as the manager of the special-purpose entity, has the power to make decisions over activities that significantly affect the entity and subsidiaries. Therefore, we concluded we are not the primary beneficiary of the entity, and we do not consolidate. During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we made a $0.6 million capital contribution in the equity method investee. The investment contributed to our equity investment balance in Dorado DevCo and is classified in “other long-term assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We have elected the FVO in accordance with the guidance in ASC 825, Financial Instruments, for our investments in SunStrong, SunStrong Partners, and Dorado DevCo, our unconsolidated VIEs. Refer to Note 7. Fair Value Measurements.

Loan Facility with Credit Suisse AG

On June 30, 2022, we entered into a loan and security purchase agreement with Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch, and other financial institutions, to finance our retail installment contract receivables. The agreement provided for a $100.0 million delayed draw term loan which will mature on December 29, 2023. In connection with the loan agreement, we have established a special purpose entity acting as the borrower under the facility. During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we amended our loan agreement and extended the facility through June 29, 2026.

The loans under the agreement bear interest at a rate as adjusted by the benchmark adjustment, as defined in the term loan agreement, or the base rate plus the applicable margin for such loans. In addition, we also entered into an interest rate swap under the agreement, which converts the floating rate loan to a fixed rate. The swap terminates in September of 2026, unless we terminate early with the maturity of the loan, subject to any early termination costs. The term loan agreement contains customary representations and warranties as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a covenant that any assets of the special purpose borrowing entity will not be available to other creditors of any of our other SunPower entities.

As of July 2, 2023, we had $67.4 million borrowings outstanding under the term loan facility, of which $0.7 million is being held in a Liquidity Reserve Account, in accordance with the loan and security purchase agreement, and is collateralized with restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of July 2, 2023. All borrowings outstanding under the term loan facility have a weighted average interest rate of between 6.2% to 7.2%.

Revolver and Term Loan Facility with Bank of America and Bank of the West

On September 12, 2022, we entered into a Credit Agreement with BofA Securities, Inc. and Bank of the West, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender, and an L/C Issuer. The Credit Agreement consists of a revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and a term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Revolver, the “Facilities”), each facility providing for an aggregate principal amount of $100 million. The Credit Agreement was amended on January 26, 2023, and provided for, among other things, an increase of the Revolver commitments by $100.0 million (the “Increased Revolving Commitments”), including CitiBank, N.A. and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the 2023 Incremental Revolving Lenders’. The Increased Revolving Commitments are governed by the same terms and conditions applicable to the Revolver commitments under the Credit Agreement prior to the effectiveness of the Amendment. The Revolver and Term Loan Facility both mature on September 12, 2027.

The interest rate for borrowings under the Facilities is based on, at the Company's option, either (1) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, and (b) Bank of America's “prime rate” and (c) SOFR plus a margin, or (2) SOFR plus a margin. A commitment fee of between 0.25% and 0.35%, depending on our Total Net Leverage Ratio, is payable quarterly on the undrawn portion of the Revolver.

The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants restricting the ability of the Company and certain of our subsidiaries, subject to negotiated exceptions, to: incur additional indebtedness; create liens or guarantee obligations; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; merge, liquidate or dispose of assets; make acquisitions or other investments; enter into hedging agreements; pay dividends and make other distributions and engage in transactions with affiliates. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company's Restricted Subsidiaries may not invest cash or property in, or loan to, our Unrestricted Subsidiaries amounts exceeding the limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement.

As of July 2, 2023, we had borrowings of $97.5 million and $180.0 million under the Term Loan Facility and Revolver, respectively. The interest rate for the borrowings is SOFR plus a margin. In addition, as of July 2, 2023, we had no issued but undrawn letters of credit outstanding under the Facilities. The letters of credit have a maximum aggregate amount that can be issued of $50.0 million, which is included within the total principal amount of the Revolver facility.

Note 11. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In connection with the Spin-off of Maxeon Solar, we entered into certain agreements with Maxeon Solar, including a transition services agreement, supply agreement, and collaboration agreement. On June 8, 2022, we entered into a First Amendment to the Cross License Agreement with Maxeon Solar to amend the Cross License Agreement that we entered into in connection with the Spin-off.

Note 12. INCOME TAXES

In the three months ended July 2, 2023, our income tax provision of $0.2 million on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in earnings of unconsolidated investees of $30.3 million, was primarily due to the accrual of interest and penalties on prior year uncertain tax positions. Our income tax provision of $3.2 million in the three months ended July 3, 2022 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $38.5 million was primarily due to changes in the forecasted annual effective tax rate, partially offset by a decrease in the deferred tax liability due to mark-to-market unrealized losses on equity investments.

In the six months ended July 2, 2023, our income tax provision of $1.5 million on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in earnings of unconsolidated investees of $72.6 million, was primarily due to discrete items including taxes on realized gains from sale of equity investments and accrual of interest and penalties on prior year uncertain tax positions. Our income tax benefit of $8.4 million in the six months ended July 3, 2022 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $52.6 million was primarily due to the reversal of deferred taxes previously accrued for California as a result of the enactment of Senate Bill 113 which restored the ability to utilize net operating losses in 2022.

During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, in accordance with FASB guidance for interim reporting of income tax, our annual effective tax rate was computed based on year to date results. The income tax differs from the amounts computed by applying the statutory income tax rate to the loss from continuing operations before income tax primarily as a result of our valuation allowance and discrete items recorded during the quarter.

Our income tax benefit on the loss from discontinued operations before income taxes of $2.8 million and $10.2 million, for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, was insignificant. In the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, our income tax benefit of $0.2 million and $0.6 million on a loss from discontinued operations before income taxes of $20.9 million and $47.2 million, respectively, was primarily due to the state tax benefit of year-to-date operating losses of the C&I Solutions business.

Total liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions were $12.9 million and $12.3 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. The increase of $0.6 million was primarily due to the accrual of additional state liabilities, and interest and penalties on existing reserves.

Table of Contents

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was signed into law by President Joe Biden. The IRA includes, among other provisions, a 15% minimum tax based on “adjusted financial statement income” exceeding $1.0 billion and a 1% excise tax on net repurchases of stock after December 31, 2022. We do not anticipate that these provisions of the IRA will have an impact on our business.

Note 13. NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE

We calculate basic net (loss) income per share by dividing earnings allocated to common stockholders by the basic weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

Diluted weighted-average shares is computed by using the basic weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus any potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the if-converted method, except when their effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities include restricted stock units and the outstanding senior convertible debentures.

The guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, requires that companies use income from continuing operations as a “control number” or benchmark to determine whether potential common shares are dilutive or antidilutive. When calculating discontinued operations, we used the same number of potential common shares used in computing the diluted per-share amount of income from continuing operations in computing all other reported diluted per-share amounts, even if the effect will be antidilutive compared to their respective basic per-share amounts.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per share attributable to stockholders:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
(In thousands, except per share amounts)	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022

1 There was no add back of interest expense for the convertible debentures or effect of dilutive securities for the six months ended July 2, 2023, and the three and six months ended July 3, 2022. The convertible debentures were repaid during the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The following is a summary of outstanding anti-dilutive potential common stock that was excluded from diluted net (loss) income per share attributable to stockholders in the following periods:

Note 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 24, 2023, we adopted a restructuring plan to align operating costs with current market conditions driven by slower sales partly due to higher interest rates. The plan is intended to improve near-term financial strength in order to remain competitive for future market conditions. As part of the restructuring plan, we expect approximately 140 employees, representing approximately 5% of our labor costs, to exit the Company in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. We expect to incur restructuring charges totaling approximately $4.3 million, consisting primarily of severance benefits. A substantial portion of such charges are expected to be incurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The actual timing and costs of the plan may differ from our current expectations and estimates.

Total Revenues


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
(In thousands, except percentages)	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		% Change		July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		% Change
Total revenues	$	463,851	$	417,772	11	%	$	904,729	$	768,049	18	%

Our total revenues during the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased by 11% or $46.1 million, as compared to the three months ended July 3, 2022, of which $38.3 million was related to increased volume in our Blue Raven, SunPower Direct and dealer channels, as a result of increased demand for solar energy systems in the market, partially fueled by the grandfathering of the net energy metering program (“NEM 2.0”) in California that was superseded by the new program (“NEM 3.0”) in April 2023, and expanding capacity of our SunPower Residential Installer (“SPRI”) team. In addition, we saw an increase of $19.3 million of revenue due to increases in the average selling price of systems primarily in our Blue Raven, SunPower Direct, and non-installing dealer channels. This was partially offset by a reduction in revenue of $24.9 million from the continued wind-down of our Light Commercial business during fiscal 2023.

Our total revenues during the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased by 18% or $136.7 million, as compared to the six months ended July 3, 2022, of which $106.7 million was related primarily to increased volume in our SunPower Direct and dealer channels, as a result of increased demand for solar energy systems in the market primarily prior to the transition to NEM 3.0 in California in April 2023, and expanding capacity of our SPRI team. In addition, we saw an increase of $60.9 million of revenue due to increases in the average selling price of systems. This was partially offset by a reduction in revenue of $38.2 million from the continued wind-down of our Light Commercial business during fiscal 2023.

One customer accounted for approximately 20% and 17% of total revenues for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, primarily within solar power systems sales revenue category. We did not have any customers that accounted for greater than 10% of total revenues for the three and six months ended July 3, 2022.

Total Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin

Gross Margin
Total gross margin	14		%	20		%	(6)	%	15		%	20		%	(5)	%

Our total cost of revenues increased by 19% and 25% during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively, primarily as a result of revenue volume growth from increased demand for solar energy products during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2023 primarily in our Blue Raven, SunPower Direct, and dealer channels. This contributed to an increase in total cost of revenues of $41.9 million and $100.5 million in the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively. In addition, the rising costs of material and labor contributed to an increase of $37.1 million and $81.0 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to July 3, 2022, respectively, partly due to the absorption of cost over lower than expected volumes. This was partially offset by a decrease in cost of revenues related to the wind-down of our Light Commercial business of $19.7 million and $32.3 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to July 3, 2022, respectively.

Our gross margin decreased by 6 percentage points during both the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to cost increases of $37.1 million and $81.0 million which were not commensurate with the corresponding increases in the average selling price of our systems of $19.3 million and $60.9 million, for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively.

R&D expense decreased by $0.9 million during the three months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to a loss recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 related to the transfer of certain assets to Maxeon Solar in connection with the amendment of the cross license agreement and other ancillary agreements, which did not occur in fiscal 2023.

R&D expense increased by $1.3 million during the six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the six months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to a continued increase in labor and personnel-related costs of $2.6 million to support our business growth strategy and ongoing projects during the second quarter of fiscal 2023, partially offset by a loss recorded of $1.2 million due to the transfer of certain assets to Maxeon Solar that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 in connection with the amendment of the cross license agreement and other ancillary agreements.

SG&A expenses decreased by $10.3 million during the three months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to a lower variable compensation of $4.7 million, a decrease of $2.4 million related to digital consulting and license fees spend, as well as a $5.2 million net decrease due to various fees incurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 in connection with the amendment of the cross license agreement and other ancillary agreements entered into with Maxeon Solar and the settlement of litigation and disputed claims, which did not occur in fiscal 2023. This was partially offset by an increase of $2.8 million in labor and personnel-related costs, including additional headcount and stock-based compensation incurred to support our business growth strategy.

SG&A expenses increased by $3.0 million during the six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the six months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to the growth of our residential business, including $11.0 million increase in depreciation expense due to new purchases of property, plant, and equipment and an increase of $5.7 million in personnel-related costs, including additional headcount and stock-based compensation, which were incurred to support our business growth strategy. This was partially offset by a lower variable compensation of $7.0 million during fiscal 2023 as compared to fiscal 2022, as well as a $5.2 million net decrease due to various fees incurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 in connection with the amendment of the cross license agreement and other ancillary agreements entered into with Maxeon Solar and the settlement of litigation and disputed claims.

Income from transition services agreement, net was lower by $0.6 million and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively, primarily due to the termination of a majority of the transition services during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 in accordance with underlying agreements with Maxeon Solar. In addition, during the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we began to incur transition services provided to Total in connection with the sale of the C&I Solutions business, which amounted to an income of $0.2 million for the six months ended July 2, 2023.

Interest income increased by $0.2 million and $1.0 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to interest earned from our money market fund investments.

Interest expense decreased by $0.2 million during the three months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to lower interest expense, net of an unrealized gain on our Credit Suisse interest rate swap. In particular, we incurred $6.2 million of interest expense on our term loan, revolver, and Credit Suisse warehouse debt facilities in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, partially offset by $1.1 million of unrealized gain on our Credit Suisse interest rate swap, as compared to $5.3 million interest expense incurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 on our 2023 convertible debentures and Safe Harbor loans, which were repaid in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 and the second quarter of fiscal 2022, respectively.

Interest expense increased by $0.5 million during the six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the six months ended July 3, 2022. This was primarily due to $9.6 million interest incurred related to our revolver, term loan, and Credit Suisse warehouse debt facilities, as well as $0.7 million interest incurred related to the repayment of our convertible debentures during the first quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to $10.0 million interest incurred related to our 2023 convertible debentures and our Safe Harbor facility during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022.

Other income, net increased by $14.9 million during the three months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to a loss of $15.2 million on our equity investment with readily determinable fair value in the three months ended July 3, 2022 that did not occur in the three months ended July 2, 2023.

Other expense, net decreased by $2.5 million during the six months ended July 2, 2023 as compared to the six months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to a loss of $10.8 million on our equity investment with readily determinable fair value in the six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to a loss of $13.9 million in the six months ended July 3, 2022.

As of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023, as part of our continuing operations, an insignificant amount of the accumulated foreign earnings was located outside of the United States and may be subject to foreign income tax or withholding tax liability upon repatriations. However, the accumulated foreign earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested in our foreign subsidiaries; therefore, no provision for such foreign taxes has been made. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability related to these earnings is not practicable.

We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets in the United States and Mexico to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with the estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. In the event we determine that we would be able to realize additional deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, or if we subsequently determine that realization of an amount previously recorded is unlikely, we would record an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would change income tax in the period of adjustment.

In September 2019, we entered into the Solar Sail, LLC (“Solar Sail”) and Solar Sail Commercial Holdings, LLC (“Solar Sail Commercial”) joint ventures with Hannon Armstrong to finance the purchase of 200 megawatts of panel inventory in accordance with IRS safe harbor guidance to preserve the 30% federal ITC for third-party owned commercial and residential systems. We determined that we hold controlling interests in Solar Sail and Solar Sail Commercial, and therefore we have fully consolidated these entities. We apply the hypothetical liquidation at book value (“HLBV”) method in allocating recorded net income (loss) to each investor based on the change in the reporting period, of the amount of net assets of the entity to which each investor would be entitled to under the governing contractual arrangements in a liquidation scenario.

The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased by $0.8 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, primarily due to lower volume of sale of safe harbor panels by Solar Sail, and higher allocation of net loss, including tax credits and accelerated tax depreciation benefits using HLBV method to noncontrolling interests in Solar Sail and Solar Sail Commercial.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses recorded in our financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

There were no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2023 compared to those previously disclosed in “Critical Accounting Estimates” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

A summary of the sources and uses of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents is as follows:


	Six Months Ended
(In thousands)	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities	$	(152,348)	$	(164,577)
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	47,152		252,087
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(165,562)		(7,474)

Operating Activities

The $12.2 million increase in cash used in operations in the six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the corresponding six months ended July 3, 2022, was primarily due to changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash used in operations increased year over year due to higher inventories, net payment for accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, and contract liabilities, partially offset by lower prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Investing Activities

The $204.9 million decrease in net cash provided by investing activities in the six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the corresponding six months ended July 3, 2022 primarily resulted from cash proceeds received from the sale of our C&I Solutions business during the six months ended July 3, 2022, as well as lower proceeds from the sale of our equity investments in Enphase in fiscal 2023 as compared to fiscal 2022.

Table of Contents

Financing Activities

The $158.1 million increase in net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the corresponding six months ended July 3, 2022 primarily resulted from repayment of our convertible debt and bank loans and other debt in fiscal 2023, partially offset by higher net proceeds from bank loans and other debt than in the six months ended July 3, 2022.

Capital Resources

As of July 2, 2023, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $114.1 million as compared to $377.0 million as of January 1, 2023. These cash balances were held primarily in the United States; however, we had approximately $1.4 million held outside of the United States. This offshore cash is used to fund our business operations in Mexico, Canada, and the Asia Pacific region, which require local payment for payroll, materials, and other expenses. We use our available cash on-hand and short-term equity investment as well as various types of recourse and non-recourse debt as a primary source of funding for our operations, capital expenditure and mergers and acquisitions.

While we move towards a less capital-intensive business model in the near-term, with the sale of our C&I Solutions business which closed in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we will continue to need additional capital in order to grow our business, including investments in customer acquisition, product and digital, as well as mergers and acquisition activities. We will seek to raise additional required capital through various cost-effective sources, including accessing the capital markets.

Overall, we maintain working capital and debt levels that we establish through consideration of a number of factors, including cash flow expectations, cash requirements for operations, our cost of capital, and targeted capital structure. We may also make debt purchases and/or exchanges for debt or equity from time to time through tender offers, exchange offers, redemptions, open market purchases, private transactions, or otherwise, or seek to raise additional debt or equity capital, depending on market conditions.

For information about the terms of debt instruments and changes thereof in the period, see “Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 10. Debt and Credit Sources” in the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes our material contractual obligations and cash requirements for future periods as of July 2, 2023:


			Payments Due by Fiscal Period
(In thousands)	Total		2023		2024-2025		2026-2027		Beyond 2027

Total	$	895,095	$	154,077	$	386,160	$	349,001	$	5,857

1 Other debt, including interest, primarily relates to our non-recourse financing and other debt arrangements as described in Note 10. Debt and Credit Sources.

2 Operating lease commitments primarily relate to various facility lease agreements including leases entered into that have not yet commenced.

3 Supply agreement commitments and other primarily relate to arrangements entered into with several suppliers, including Maxeon Solar, for purchase of photovoltaic solar modules, as well as with a supplier for module-level power electronics and alternating current cables. These agreements specify future quantities and pricing of products to be supplied by the vendors for periods of two years and five years, respectively, and there are certain consequences, such as forfeiture of advanced deposits and liquidated damages relating to previous purchases, in the event we terminate these arrangements.

Liabilities Associated with Uncertain Tax Positions

Due to the complexity and uncertainty associated with our tax positions, we cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the period in which cash settlement will be made for our liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions in other long-term liabilities. Therefore, they have been excluded from the table above. As of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, total liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions were $12.9 million and $12.3 million, respectively, and are included within "Other long-term liabilities" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as they are not expected to be paid within the next twelve months.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting SunPower, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023, except as disclosed below.

Credit Risk

We have certain financial instruments that subject us to credit risk. These consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, loan receivables held for maturity, advances to suppliers, and our interest rate swaps. We are exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to our financial instruments and interest rate swap contracts. Our investment policy requires cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and investments to be placed with high-quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit risk from any one issuer. We additionally perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition whenever deemed necessary and generally do not require collateral.

Table of Contents

We are also exposed to credit risk from certain customers and their potential payment delinquencies on our retail installment contracts and solar loan receivable agreements that are held to maturity. These retail installment contracts and solar loan receivable agreements have a typical term of 20 - 25 years and require customers to make monthly payments. As of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the average Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) score of our customers under a retail installment contract agreement remained at or above 750 and 740, respectively, which are each generally categorized as a “Very Good” credit profile by the Fair Isaac Corporation. As of July 2, 2023, the average FICO score of our customers under a solar loan receivable remained at or above 600, which is generally categorized as a “Fair” credit profile. However, existing and future customers’ credit profiles may decline due to economic headwinds. Our retail installment contract and solar loan receivables held to maturity portfolios have not experienced a significant number of customer defaults, however, they may occur as we continue our business. Based on our estimate of expected credit losses, historical write-off experience, and current account knowledge, our reserve for this exposure is minimal. If we experience a significant number of customer credit defaults, our revenue and our ability to raise capital could be adversely affected. If economic conditions worsen, certain customers may face liquidity concerns and may be unable to satisfy their payment obligations to us on a timely basis or at all, which could have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk from our financing receivables based on the fixed rate of interest as established by the underlying contract between us and the customer. This risk is significant to our business because our financing model is sensitive to interest rate fluctuations.

As of July 2, 2023, our retail installment contract receivables had a fair value of $77.5 million. A hypothetical 50 basis points increase or decrease in market interest rates in the financing contracts would change the fair value of these receivables by a decrease or increase of approximately $3.7 million and $3.5 million, respectively.

In addition, as of July 2, 2023, our solar loan receivables held for maturity had a fair value of $1.2 million. A hypothetical 50 basis points increase or decrease in market interest rates in the financing contracts would change the fair value of these receivables by a decrease or increase of approximately $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Also, we are exposed to interest rate risk because many of our customers depend on debt financing to purchase our solar power systems, as well as our long-term financing receivables through our retail installment contract receivable program. Further increases in market interest rates could make it difficult for our customers to obtain the financing necessary to purchase our solar power systems on favorable terms, or at all.

We also enter into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our non-recourse floating rate debt and fixed rate loans entered into by customers. As of July 2, 2023, we had interest rate swap derivatives not designated as hedges with aggregate notional value of $185.9 million.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure control and procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 2, 2023 at a reasonable assurance level.
