SunPower CEO, T.J. Rodgers, said, "After four consecutive Preliminary Quarter Reports with positive operating income, we lost money in Q1'26 due to lower revenue combined with a ramp in spending for anticipated Q3'26 growth, which we still believe will happen."
___________________________________1 Non-GAAP Operating income is based on preliminary, unaudited non-GAAP results posted on the IR section of our website under "News" [us.sunpower.com].2 Our 2025 GAAP financial statements are found in the 10K filing posted on our website.3 Our non-GAAP financials are used to run the company. Our policy allows for only three GAAP/non-GAAP differences: a) no non-cash amortization of intangibles, b) no employee stock compensation charges and c) no one-time restructuring M&A gains or losses.4 Restated 10Q results consistent with adjustments in the 2025 10K report, and upcoming Q1'25-Q3'25 restatements5 Cash balances exclude restricted cash and include issued but uncashed checks.
