NOTE 1:-GENERAL
a.SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries design, develop, and sell an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual photovoltaic (“PV”) module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. The Company’s products consist mainly of (i) power optimizers designed to maximize energy throughput from each and every module through constant tracking of Maximum Power Point individually per module, (ii) inverters which invert direct current (DC) from the PV module to alternating current (AC), (iii) a related cloud-based monitoring platform, that collects and processes information from the power optimizers and inverters of a solar PV system to enable customers and system owners as applicable, to monitor and manage the solar PV systems and (iv) a storage solution that is used to increase energy independence and maximize self-consumption for homeowners by utilizing a battery that is sold separately by third party manufacturers, to store and supply power as needed (the “StorEdge solution”). The StorEdge solution is designed to provide smart energy functions such as maximizing self-consumption, Time-of-Use programming for desired hours of the day, and home energy backup solutions.
The Company and its subsidiaries sell their products worldwide through large distributors and electrical equipment wholesalers to smaller solar installers, as well as directly to large solar installers and Engineering, Procurement and Construction firms (“EPCs”).
In July and October 2018, the Company completed the acquisitions ("Gamatronic Acquisition") of substantially all of the assets and activities of Gamatronic Electronic Industries Ltd. ("Gamatronic IL") and all of the outstanding shares of its wholly owned subsidiary Gamatronic (UK) Limited (“Gamatronic UK”), respectively. Both companies ("UPS Division") are providers and manufacturers of Uninterruptible Power Supplies ("UPS") devices.

b.New accounting pronouncements not yet effective:
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment". ASU 2017-04 was issued to simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The amendments in ASU 2017-04 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this pronouncement.

NOTE 1:-GENERAL (Cont.)
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in a more timely recognition of losses. The Company will adopt Topic 326 effective January 1, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and cash flows.
c.Recently issued and adopted pronouncements:
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (Topic 842) "Leases". Topic 842 supersedes the lease requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 840, "Leases". Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases and provide enhanced disclosures. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. In July 2018, the FASB issued amendments in ASU 2018-11, which provide a transition election to not restate comparative periods for the effects of applying the new standard. This transition election permits entities to change the date of initial application to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, or retrospectively at the beginning of the period of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment. The Company has elected to apply the standard retrospectively at the beginning of the period of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment. The Company has also elected certain relief options offered in ASU 2016-02 including certain available transitional practical expedients. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective January 1, 2019. The interim consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 are presented under the new standard, while the comparative periods are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy (See Note 7).
d.Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X, “Interim Financial Statements” and the rules and regulations for Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to those rules and regulations, the Company has condensed or omitted certain information and disclosures in footnotes that it normally includes in its annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
In management’s opinion, the Company has made all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated) necessary to fairly present its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company’s interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.
The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2018, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019, have been applied consistently in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, except for the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842) (see Note 1c).

NOTE 6:-FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In accordance with ASC 820, the Company measures its cash equivalents, foreign currency derivative contracts, and marketable securities, at fair value using the market approach valuation technique. Cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified within Level 1 or Level 2. This is because these assets are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. Earn-out provision is classified within the Level 3 value hierarchy, as the valuation is based on unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
The following table sets forth the Company’s assets that were measured at fair value as of September 30, 2019 (unaudited) and December 31, 2018, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Overview
We are a leading provider of intelligent inverter solutions that has changed the way power is harvested and managed in a solar PV system. Our direct current (“DC”) optimized inverter system is designed to maximize power generation at the individual PV module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. Supporting increased PV proliferation, the SolarEdge system consists of power optimizers, inverters, communication and smart energy management solutions, and a cloud-based monitoring platform. SolarEdge’s solutions addresses a broad range of solar market segments, from residential solar installations to commercial and small utility-scale solar installations.
In addition, in the past year, we have expanded our product offering, by acquiring the assets of Gamatronic Electronic Industries Ltd. (“Gamatronic”), a supplier of uninterruptable power supplies, also known as UPS products (the “Gamatronic Acquisition”); through the acquisition of Kokam Co., Ltd. (“Kokam”), a world provider of lithium ion batteries (the “Kokam Acquisition”); as well as our entry into the e-mobility market, through the acquisition of
5
S.M.R.E S.p.A (“SMRE”), an Italian company providing innovative integrated powertrain technology and electronics for electric vehicles (the “SMRE Acquisition”).
Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $410.6 million and $236.6 million, respectively. Gross margin was 33.9% and 33.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Net income was $41.6 million and $45.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $1,007.4 million and $673.6 million, respectively. Gross margin was 33.4% and 35.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Net income was $93.8 million and $115.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
We are a leader in the global module-level power electronics (“MLPE”) market according to HIS Research dated from September 9, 2019 and as of September 30, 2019, we have shipped approximately 45.4 million power optimizers and 1.9 million inverters. Over 1.25 million installations, many of which may include multiple inverters, are currently connected to, and monitored through, our cloud‑based monitoring platform. As of September 30, 2019, we have shipped approximately 14.6 GW of our DC optimized inverter systems.
Key Operating Metrics
In managing our business and assessing financial performance, we supplement the information provided by the financial statements with other operating metrics. These operating metrics are utilized by our management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and formulate projections. We use metrics relating to shipments (inverters shipped, power optimizers shipped and megawatts shipped) to evaluate our sales performance and to track market acceptance of our products. We use metrics relating to monitoring (systems monitored) to evaluate market acceptance of our products and usage of our solution.
We provide the “megawatts shipped” metric, which is calculated based on nameplate capacity shipped, to show adoption of our system on a nameplate capacity basis. Nameplate capacity shipped is the maximum rated power output capacity of an inverter and corresponds to our financial results in that higher total capacities shipped are generally associated with higher total revenues. However, revenues increase with each additional unit, not necessarily each additional MW of capacity, sold. Accordingly, we also provide the “inverters shipped” and “power optimizers shipped” operating metrics.

% |
Revenues increased by $174.0 million, or 73.5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase in the number of inverters and power optimizers sold, with significant growth in revenues coming from Europe, the United States (“U.S.”) and Israel; and (ii) revenues from the new businesses we acquired over the past year, which include sales of UPS units, batteries, storage systems, and products sold by SMRE, in the aggregate amount of $22.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $2.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018. Revenues from outside of the U.S. comprised 51.8% of our revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to 49.4% in the three months ended September 30, 2018.
The number of power optimizers sold increased by approximately 1.6 million units, or 52.8%, from approximately 3.0 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2018 to approximately 4.6 million units in the three months ended September 30, 2019. The number of inverters sold increased by approximately 63,300 units, or 51.2%, from approximately 123,700 units in the three months ended September 30, 2018 to approximately 187,000 units in the three months ended September 30, 2019. In addition, we increased prices in the U.S. in the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, in order to offset the impact of the increase in tariffs on goods made in China that became effective June 1, 2019. This increase in selling prices was partially offset by the devaluation of the Euro and the Australian Dollar compared to the U.S. Dollar, negatively impacting our U.S. Dollar denominated average selling price (“ASP”). Overall, and primarily due to the factors
7
detailed above, ASP per watt increased by 21.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Cost of revenues increased by $112.7 million, or 71.0%, in the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to: increased volume of products sold which is reflected in the XX% growth in revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018:
•
increased customs tariffs, shipment and logistics costs of $26.7 million attributed to the change in tariffs rate on Chinese made products imported to the U.S. from 10% to 25% as well as increased air shipments resulting from increased demands which required us to expedite shipments for timely delivery;
•
increased warranty expenses and warranty accruals of $13.3 million associated primarily with the rapid increase of products in our install base;
•
inclusion of variable costs related to the manufacturing of Kokam and SMRE products in the aggregate amount of $10.7 million, which were not included in the cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as those businesses were acquired after September 2018;
•
increased personnel-related costs of $5.0 million connected to the expansion of our operations and support headcount which is growing in parallel to our growing install base worldwide and in connection with entering the battery and integrated powertrain technology businesses; and;
•
increased amortization of intangible assets and cost of product adjustment of $2.1million related to the Gamatronic Acquisition, the Kokam Acquisition and the SMRE Acquisition;
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased from 33.0%, in the three months ended September 30, 2018, to 33.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to:
•
increased profit on the units sold due to a combination of stable average selling prices and cost reductions achieved in manufacturing these products;
•
general economies of scale in our personnel-related costs and other costs associated with our support and operations departments;
•
decreased support costs related to our warranty obligations;
•
higher gross profit related to the acquired businesses;
These were partially offset by:
•
increased shipment and logistics costs resulting from our expedited growth, new customs tariff rules in the U.S. and increase in air shipments;
•
increased selling prices in the U.S. offset by increased tariff expenses presented in cost of goods sold;
•
increased warranty accruals due to the increase in our install base; and
•
amortization of intangible assets and cost of product adjustment related to the Kokam Acquisition and the SMRE Acquisition.

N/A |
Taxes on income were $7.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to tax benefits of 12.3 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to:
•
tax expenses incurred in the U.S. of $1.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to tax benefit of $13.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018. The tax benefit in the three months ended September 30, 2018, related to a one time change in our estimate with respect to the one-time transition tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of cumulative foreign earnings and assessment of the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) inclusion;
•
an increase of $6.0 million in current tax expenses in Israel, mainly attributed to the expiration of the two year tax exemption in Israel which ended on December 31, 2018; and
•
an increase of $0.3 million in current and prior year tax expenses in other jurisdictions.
The increase in these expenses was offset by:
•
an increase of $0.6 million deferred tax assets (presented as tax benefit) in Israel and the U.S; and
•
an increase of $0.6 million in deferred tax assets, net (presented as tax benefit) in other jurisdictions, mainly related to deferred tax assets as a result of the Kokam and SMRE acquisitions.

% |
Revenues increased by $333.9 million, or 49.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to (i) an increase in the number of systems sold with significant growth in revenues coming from the U.S., Europe, Australia, Israel and Brazil; and (ii) revenues from the new businesses we acquired, which includes sales of UPS units, batteries, storage systems, and
11
products sold by SMRE, in the aggregate amount of $59.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $2.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Non-U.S. revenues comprised 56.2% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
The number of power optimizers sold increased by approximately 3.0 million units, or 36.6%, from approximately 8.2 million units in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, to approximately 11.2 million units in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The number of inverters sold increased by approximately 143,200 units, or 42.7%, from approximately 335,200 units in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to approximately 478,400 units in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. In addition, we increased prices in the U.S. in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, in order to offset the impact of the increase in tariffs on goods made in China that became effective June 1, 2019. This increase in selling prices was partially offset by the devaluation of the Euro and the Australian Dollar compared to the U.S. Dollar, negatively impacting our U.S. Dollar denominated average selling price (“ASP”). Overall, and primarily due to the factors detailed above, our ASP per watt for units shipped increased by $0.006, or 2.6%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Cost of revenues increased by $237.3 million, or 54.7%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to:
•
an increase in the volume of products sold;
•
an increase in customs tariffs, shipment and logistics costs of $35.6 million attributed to the change in tariffs rate on Chinese made products imported to the U.S. from 10% to 25% as well as an increase in air shipments due to increased product demand which required us to increase manufacturing capacity and expedite shipments for timely delivery;
•
an increase in warranty expenses and warranty accruals of $32.1 million associated primarily with the rapid increase of products in our install base;
•
inclusion of variable costs related to the assembly of UPS products and the manufacturing of Kokam and SMRE products in the aggregate amount of $37.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as Kokam and SMRE were acquired after September 2018;
•
increased personnel-related costs of $14.5 million related to the expansion of our operations and support headcount which is growing in parallel to our growing install base worldwide and in connection with entering the UPS, battery and integrated powertrain technology businesses; and
•
increased of amortization of intangible assets and cost of product adjustment of $6.2 million related to the Gamatronic Acquisition, the Kokam Acquisition and the SMRE Acquisition.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 35.6% in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, to 33.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to:
•
increased shipment and logistics costs resulted from our expedited growth, new customs tariff rules in the U.S. and increase in air shipments;
12
•
increases in selling prices in the U.S. to offset the increased tariff expenses presented in cost of goods sold and increases in cost of good sold, as a result of which gross profit as a percentage of revenue declined;
•
lower gross profit from our UPS, battery business and SMRE products and underutilization of production facilities;
•
increased warranty accruals due to the increase in our install base; and
•
amortization of intangible assets and cost of product adjustment related to the Gamatronic Acquisition, the Kokam Acquisition and the SMRE Acquisition.
These were partially offset by:
•
general economies of scale in our personnel-related costs and other costs associated with our support and operations departments;
•
increased profit on the units sold due to a combination of stable average selling prices and cost reductions achieved in manufacturing these products; and
•
decreased actual support costs related to our warranty obligations.

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, customer concentrations and interest rates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Approximately 52.3% and 41.8% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, were earned in non‑U.S. Dollar denominated currencies, principally the Euro. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, primarily the U.S. Dollar and New Israeli Shekel, and to a lesser extent the Euro and Korean Won. Our New Israeli Shekel‑denominated expenses consist primarily of personnel and overhead costs. Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $33.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, between the New Israeli Shekel and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, between the Korean Won and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
For purposes of our consolidated financial statements, local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange to the U.S. Dollar on the balance sheet date and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rate as of the date of the transaction or at the average exchange rate to the U.S. Dollar during the reporting period.
We have in the past and may in the future, use derivative financial instruments, specifically foreign currency forward contracts and put and call options, to manage exposure to foreign currency risks by hedging a portion of our account receivable balances. Our foreign currency forward contracts are expected to mitigate exchange rate changes related to the hedged assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had no foreign currency forward transactions and as of September 30, 2019, we had no
18
foreign currency forward contracts outstanding. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
As of September 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $247.3 million and available-for-sale marketable securities with an estimated fair value of $178.2 million, and $7.4 million invested in bank deposit and restricted bank deposits, which were held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Since most of our cash and cash equivalents are held in U.S. Dollar‑denominated money market funds, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents do not have any material exposure to changes in exchange rates.
Concentrations of Major Customers
Our trade accounts receivables potentially expose us to a concentration of credit risk with our major customers. As of September 30, 2019, one major customer accounted for approximately 24.5% of our consolidated trade receivables balance. We currently do not foresee a material, adverse credit risk associated with these receivables.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose 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 to provide reasonable assurance 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.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Following the adoption of the Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (Topic 842) "Leases" on January 1, 2019, we implemented changes to our processes related to leases and the related control activities. There were significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of this new standard.
Based on an evaluation by our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, such officers concluded that there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter 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
In October 2019, we announced that we filed three lawsuits in China against Huawei. The lawsuits, filed in the Regional Courts of Jinan and Shenzhen in China, cite unauthorized use of patented technology, and are intended to protect SolarEdge’s significant investment in its innovative DC optimized inverter technology. Seeking damages and an injunction, the lawsuits are intended to prevent Huawei from manufacturing and selling any products infringing upon SolarEdge’s patented PV inverter and power optimizer technology.

In August 2019, the Company was served with a lawsuit filed in the civil courts of Milan, Italy against the Italian subsidiary of SMRE that purchased the shares of SMRE in the tender offer which followed the SMRE Acquisition by certain former shareholders of SMRE who tendered their shares. The lawsuit asks for damages of approximately $3 million, representing the difference between the amount for which they tendered their shares (6 Euro per share) and 6.7 Euros per share. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted and intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.
We believe we have meritorious defenses to the claims asserted and intend to vigorously defend against this lawsuit and does not expect the outcome of the litigation matters to have a material effect on its balance sheets, statements of income or cash flows.
In addition, as part of the normal course of business, we may from time to time be named as a party to various legal claims, actions and complaints (including as a result of initiating such legal claims, action or complaints on behalf of the Company), including the matters described in Item 1 of Part II of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2019. It is impossible to predict with certainty whether any resulting liability from any such legal claims, actions or complaints would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
