1. Organization, Business and Out-of-Period Adjustments
Array Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly ATI Intermediate Holdings, LLC, is a Delaware corporation formed in December 2018 as a wholly owned subsidiary of ATI Investment Parent, LLC (“Former Parent”). On October 14, 2020, the Company converted from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation and changed the Company’s name to Array Technologies, Inc. The Company is headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and manufactures and supplies solar tracking systems and related products for customers across the United States and internationally. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, ATI Investment Sub, Inc., owns subsidiaries through which it conducts substantially all operations.
Acquisition of STI Norland
On January 11, 2022 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired 100 % of the share capital of Soluciones Técnicas Integrales Norland, S.L.U., a Spanish private limited liability Company, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “STI”) with cash and common stock of the Company (the “STI Acquisition”). The STI Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination.
Upon completion of the STI Acquisition, the Company began operating as two reportable operating segments: the Array legacy operating segment (the “Array Legacy Operations”) and the newly acquired operations (the “STI Operations”) pertaining to STI.
Out-of-Period Adjustment for the Correction of Errors
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company identified certain errors in its previously issued financial statements that have been corrected through a cumulative out-of-period adjustment in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company has concluded that the errors are not material to the previously issued financial statements and the cumulative out-of-period adjustment for the correction of these errors is not material to the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Below is a summary of each of the errors corrected and a summary of the cumulative impact.
Capped Calls
As discussed in Note 10 – Debt, of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 22, 2023, in November 2021 the Company paid $ 52.9 million to enter into capped call option agreements (the “Capped Calls”) to reduce the potential dilution to holders of the Company’s common stock after a conversion of the Company’s Convertible Notes (as defined below). The Company originally concluded that the Capped Calls met the criteria for equity classification because the Capped Calls are indexed to the Company’s common stock, and the Company has discretion to settle the Capped Calls in shares or cash. As a result, the Company originally recorded the amount paid for the Capped Calls as a reduction to additional paid-in capital of $ 52.9 million, offset by $ 12.4 million of income taxes.
When the Company entered into the Capped Calls, the Company executed certain side letters (the “Side Letters”) with the counterparties that replaced some of the terms described in the primary contract including the volatility inputs used to value the Capped Calls under certain circumstances. Upon further evaluation, the Company has concluded that the modification to the volatility inputs precludes the Capped Calls from being
11
Array Technologies, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
indexed to its own stock because there is the possibility that the Capped Calls will settle at an amount that exceeds fair value and, therefore, prevents the Capped Calls from being classified as equity.
In addition, the Side Letters also provide for certain adjustments to settlement amounts on the basis of holder-specific taxes which are impermissible inputs to the valuation that also prevents the Capped Calls from being indexed to the Company’s own stock, and therefore, prevents the Capped Calls from being classified as equity. As a result, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company has concluded that the cash paid for the Capped Calls should have been recorded as an asset of $ 52.9 million with the asset being subsequently marked to market at the end of each accounting period.
Additional Closing Purchased Put Option
As discussed in Note 11 – Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 22, 2023, in August 2021 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with certain Purchasers (as defined below), which gives the Company the option to require the Purchasers to purchase up to an additional 150,000 shares of Series A Shares (as defined below) and up to 3,375,000 shares of common stock for $ 148.0 million until June 30, 2023 (the “Put Option”). Upon issuance of the Put Option, the Company recorded a reduction to additional paid-in-capital of approximately $ 12.4 million because the Company originally concluded that the Put Option should be classified as equity.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company reconsidered the provisions of this option. Because the Series A Shares underlying the Put Option could potentially require redemption under the Certificate of Designations governing the Series A Shares, the Put Option should not have been equity classified. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company has concluded that the value of the Put Option at inception should have been recorded as an asset of $ 12.4 million, with the asset being subsequently marked to market at the end of each accounting period.
Correction of the Capped Calls and Put Option
The adjustments to correct the Capped Calls and the Put Option at January 1, 2023 resulted in an increase in Derivative assets of $ 55.7 million, a decrease in Deferred income tax assets of $ 11.0 million, an increase in additional paid-in-capital of $ 52.9 million, and a decrease in net income of $ 8.1 million.
Goodwill
In connection with the acquisition of STI, the Company had understated goodwill by $ 2.0 million and overstated inventory by the same amount that was sold during fiscal 2022. The Company corrected the goodwill balance during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, resulting in an increase in goodwill and a decrease in cost of goods sold.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting and Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements and, in the
12
opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of results for the interim periods reported. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023, or any other interim periods, or any future year or period. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. Certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the 2022 Annual Report.
Unless expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “the Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Array”, and “Array Technologies” refer to Array Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and the term “condensed consolidated financial statements” refers to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts, and such differences may be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements; however, management believes that these estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they occur.
Impact of the Ongoing Conflict in Ukraine
The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has reduced the availability of material that can be sourced in Europe and, as a result, increased logistics costs for the procurement of certain inputs and materials used in our products. We do not know the ultimate severity or duration of the conflict in Ukraine, but we continue to monitor the situation and evaluate our procurement strategy and supply chain as to reduce any negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Inflation
Inflationary pressures, while somewhat moderating recently, are expected to persist, at least in the near-term, and may negatively impact our results of operations. To mitigate the inflationary pressures on our business, we have implemented selective price increases in certain markets, accelerated productivity initiatives and expanded our supplier base, while continuing to execute on overhead cost containment practices.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for its business acquisitions under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic
13
805 Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management’s judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, asset lives, and market multiples, amongst other items.
Foreign Currency Translation Exposure
The functional currencies of certain of our foreign subsidiaries are their local currencies. Accordingly, we apply period-end exchange rates to translate their assets and liabilities, historical exchange rates to translate their retained earnings, and average exchange rates prevailing during the period to translate their revenues, expenses, gains, and losses into U.S. dollars. We include the associated translation adjustments as a separate component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” within stockholders’ equity.
Certain of our foreign subsidiaries have local currencies that are different than the subsidiaries functional currencies. When translating from the local currency to the functional currency, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the current exchange rate resulting in foreign exchange gains or losses, and non-monetary assets are translated at historical exchange rates. Changes in the exchange rates between the functional currencies of our subsidiaries and the currencies in which monetary financial assets and liabilities are denominated in, will create fluctuations in our reported condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Both the Capped Call and the Put Option are accounted for as assets that are recorded at fair value within Derivative assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The changes in fair value to Derivative assets are recorded within change in fair value of derivative assets on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 1 – Organization, Business and Out-of-Period Adjustments , for further information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 , to provide entities with relief during the transition period by deferring the effective date of reference rate reform from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU 2022-06 is effective upon issuance. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2022-06. Simultaneously, the Company elected to apply the debt accounting optional expedient, under which the reporting entity will account for amendments to debt agreements, which sole intent are the replacement of a discontinued reference rate(s), as being not substantial and thus a continuation of the existing contract . There was no significant impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements related to the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2022-06. The Company
14
continues to evaluate the impact of the ASU 2020-04 guidance and may apply other elections, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur.
In March 2023, the Company amended an existing debt agreement to replace the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) interest rate provisions with interest rate provisions based on a forward-looking term rate based on the secured overnight funding rate (“SOFR”) (see Note 7 – Debt ). There were no other changes to the agreement. There was no significant impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill
Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by operating segment during the six months ended June 30, 2023, consisted of the following (in thousands):
Array Legacy Operations (1)
STI Operations Total
Beginning balance
$ 69,727 $ 346,457 $ 416,184

(1) Goodwill attributable to Array Legacy Operations is net of impairment of $ 51.9 million.
Each quarter the Company evaluates if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of its reporting units is less than their carrying value, which would require the Company to perform an interim goodwill impairment test. During our most recent evaluation, we concluded there were no indicators of impairment as of June 30, 2023.

Long-lived assets, including intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. As of June 30, 2023, no events or circumstances were noted that would indicate the carrying amount of any of our asset groups may not be recoverable.
6. Income Taxes
The Company follows guidance under ASC Topic 740-270 Income Taxes , which requires that an estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to year-to-date ordinary income (loss). At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. The tax effect of discrete items is recorded in the quarter in which the discrete events occur.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $ 22.4 million and a benefit of $ 18.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and an expense of $ 32.3 million and a benefit of $ 33.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was unfavorably impacted by higher income reported in non-U.S. jurisdictions and an increase in income tax expense related to the Put Option (see Note 1 – Organization, Business and Out-of-Period Adjustments ), partially offset by benefits related to excess equity-based compensation deductions recorded discretely during the quarter. The tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was favorably impacted by losses in non-U.S. jurisdictions which have higher tax rates than the U.S., partially offset by non-deductible expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, no reserves for uncertain tax positions have been recorded. The Company will continue to monitor this position each interim period.

Current portion of debt ( 37,450 ) ( 38,691 )
Total long-term debt, net of current portion $ 702,485 $ 720,352
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On October 14, 2020, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) governing the Company’s senior secured credit facility, consisting of (i) a $ 575 million senior secured 7-year term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) a $ 200 million senior secured 5-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The Credit Agreement was amended on February 23, 2021 (the “First Amendment”), on February 26, 2021 (the “Second Amendment”) and again on March 2, 2023 (the “Third Amendment”). The single purpose of the Third Amendment in March 2023 was to replace the former discontinued Senior Secured Credit Facility reference rate of LIBOR, with the comparable active reference rate, SOFR. There were no other changes as a result of the Third Amendment.
Revolving Credit Facility
Under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company had no outstanding balance as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $ 26.7 million and $ 38.8 million in standby letters of credit at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and availability of $ 173.3 million and $ 161.2 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In accordance with the Third Amendment, the Revolving Credit Facility pays interest at the Company’s election, at either (x) for SOFR Loans at Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 3.25 % or (y) for Base Rate Loans at the higher of the Prime Rate, one half of 1.00 % above the Federal Funds Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR for one month interest period, after giving effect to any floor plus 1.00 %, plus 2.25 %.
Term Loan Facility
The Term Loan Facility had a balance of $ 290.3 million and $ 312.5 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The balance of the Term Loan Facility is presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, net of debt discount and issuance costs of $ 15.5 million and $ 19.1 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In accordance with the Third Amendment, the Term Loan Facility pays interest at the Company’s election, at either (x) for SOFR Loans at Adjusted Term SOFR (subject to a floor of 0.50 %) plus 3.25 % or (y) for Base Rate Loans at the higher of the Prime Rate, one half of 1.00 %
18
above the Federal Funds Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR for one-month interest period, after giving effect to any floor plus 1.00 %, plus 2.25 %. The debt discount and issuance costs are being amortized using the effective interest method and the effective interest rate of the Term Loan Facility as of June 30, 2023, was 9.41 %. The Term Loan Facility has an annual excess cash flow calculation, for which the prescribed formula did not result in requiring the Company to make an advance principal payment for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Convertible Notes
On December 3, 2021 and December 9, 2021, the Company completed a $ 425.0 million private offering ($ 375 million and $ 50 million, respectively), of its 1.00 % Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Convertible Notes”), resulting in proceeds of $ 413.3 million ($ 364.7 million and $ 48.6 million, respectively), after deducting the original issue discount of 2.75 %. The Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated December 3, 2021, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.
The Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on December 1, 2028, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.00 % per year, payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on June 1, 2022.
The conversion rate for the Notes was initially 41.9054 shares of the Company’s common stock per $ 1,000 principal amount of Notes, which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ 23.86 per share of common stock or 10.1 million shares of common stock. The Convertible Notes were not convertible during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and none have been converted to date. Also, given that the average market price of the Company’s common stock has not exceeded the exercise price since inception, there was no dilutive impact for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Capped Calls
In connection with the issuances of the Convertible Notes, the Company paid $ 52.9 million, in aggregate, to enter into capped call option agreements to reduce the potential dilution to holders of the Company’s common stock after a conversion of the Convertible Notes. Specifically, upon the exercise of the Capped Call instruments issued pursuant to the agreements (the “Capped Calls”), the Company would receive shares of its common stock equal to approximately $ 17.8 million shares (a) multiplied by (i) the lower of $ 36.0200 or the then-current market price of its common stock, less (ii) the applicable exercise price, $ 23.86 , and (b) divided by the then-current market price of its common stock. The results of this formula are that the Company would receive more shares as the market price of its common stock exceeds the exercise price and approaches the cap, which was initially $ 36.02 per share.
Consequently, if the Convertible Notes are converted, then the number of shares to be issued by the Company would be effectively partially offset by the shares of common stock received by the Company under the Capped Calls as they are exercised. The formula above would be adjusted in the event of certain specified extraordinary events affecting the Company, including a merger; a tender offer; nationalization, insolvency or delisting of the Company’s common stock; changes in law; failure to deliver; insolvency filing; stock splits, combinations, dividends, repurchases or similar events; or an announcement of certain of the preceding actions.
19
The Company can also elect to receive the equivalent value of cash in lieu of shares of common stock upon settlement, except in certain circumstances. The Capped Calls expire on December 1, 2028, and terminate upon the occurrence of certain extraordinary events such as a merger, tender offer, nationalization, insolvency, delisting, event of default, a change in law, failure to deliver, an announcement of certain of these events, or an early conversion of the Convertible Notes. Although intended to reduce the net number of shares of common stock issued after a conversion of the Convertible Notes, the Capped Calls were separately negotiated transactions, are not a part of the terms of the Convertible Notes, and do not affect the rights of the holders of the Convertible Notes. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for information regarding the accounting for the Capped Calls.
Other Debt
Other debt consists of the debt obligations of STI. Interest rates on other debt range from 0.55 % to 4.52 % annually. Of the $ 50.4 million other debt balance, approximately $ 10.3 million is denominated in Euros and $ 40.1 million is denominated in Brazilian Real.
8. Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock
Series A Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock
The Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with certain investors (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which, on August 11, 2021, the Company issued 350,000 shares of its newly designated Series A Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Shares”) and 7,098,765 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $ 346.0 million (the “Initial Closing”). Further, pursuant to the SPA, on September 27, 2021, the Company issued and sold to the Purchasers 776,235 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $ 0.01 million (the “Prepaid Forward Contract”). The Company used the net proceeds from the initial Closing to repay the $ 102.0 million outstanding balance under its existing Revolving Credit Facility and prepay $ 100.0 million of the Company’s Term Loan Facility. The Series A Shares have no maturity date.
The Put Option included in the SPA required the Purchasers to purchase, up to an additional 150,000 shares of Series A Shares and up to 3,375,000 shares of common stock (or up to 6,100,000 shares of common stock in the event of certain price-related adjustments) until June 30, 2023, subject to certain equitable adjustments pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction, for an aggregate purchase price up to $ 148.0 million (the “Delayed Draw Commitment” or the “Put Option”). The Put Option expired effective June 30, 2023.
On January 7, 2022, pursuant to the Put Option, the Company issued and sold to the Purchasers, 50,000 shares of Series A Shares and 1,125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in an additional closing for an aggregate purchase price of $ 49.4 million (the “Additional Closing”).
The Company has classified the Series A Shares as temporary equity and is accreting the carrying amount to its full redemption amount from the date of issuance to the earliest redemption date using the effective interest method. Such accretion totaled $ 12.4 million and $ 11.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Refer to Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for information regarding the accounting for the Put Option.
20
Dividends
On or prior to the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing, the Company may pay dividends on the Series A Shares either in (i) cash at the then-applicable Cash Regular Dividend Rate (as defined below), (ii) through accrual to the Liquidation Preference at the Accrued Regular Dividend Rate of 6.25 % (the “Permitted Accrued Dividends”), or (iii) a combination thereof. Following the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing, dividends are payable only in cash. To the extent the Company does not declare such dividends and pay in cash following the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing, the dividends accrue to the Liquidation Preference (“Default Accrued Dividends”) at the then-applicable Cash Regular Dividend Rate plus 200 basis points. In the event there are Default Accrued Dividends outstanding for six consecutive quarters, the Company, at the option of the holders of the Series A Shares, will pay 100 % of the amount of Default Accrued Dividends by delivering to such holder a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the quotient of (i) the amount of Default Accrued Dividends divided by (ii) 95 % of the 30-day VWAP of the Company’s common stock (“Non-Cash Dividend”).
The “Cash Regular Dividend Rate” of the Series A Shares means (i) initially, 5.75 % per annum on the Liquidation Preference and (ii) increased by (a) 50 basis points on each of the fifth, sixth and seventh anniversaries of the Initial Closing and (b) 100 basis points on each of the eighth, ninth and tenth anniversaries of the Initial Closing. The “Accrued Regular Dividend Rate” on the Series A Shares means 6.25 % per annum on the Liquidation Preference.
As used herein, “Liquidation Preference” means, with respect to the Series A Shares, the initial liquidation preference of $ 1,000 per share, plus accrued dividends of such share at the time of the determination.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company accrued dividends on the Series A Shares at the Accrued Regular Dividend rate of 6.25 % totaling $ 12.9 million. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has accrued and unpaid dividends of $ 19.3 million.
The Series A Shares have similar characteristics of an “Increasing Rate Security” as described by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5Q, Increasing Rate Preferred Stock . As a result, the discount on Series A Shares is considered an unstated dividend cost that is amortized over the period preceding commencement of the perpetual dividend using the effective interest method, by charging imputed dividend cost against retained earnings, or additional paid in capital in the absence of retained earnings, and increasing the carrying amount of the Series A Shares by a corresponding amount. Accordingly, the discount is amortized over five years using the effective yield method.
Fees
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid the Purchasers a 3 % per annum cash commitment fee totaling $ 1,508 on the unpurchased portion of Put Option.

9. Revenue
The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by sales recorded over time and sales recorded at a point in time. The following table presents the Company’s disaggregated revenues (in thousands):
Three Months Ended
June 30, Six Months Ended
June 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Over time revenue $ 417,448 $ 324,851 $ 703,759 $ 532,922
Point in time revenue 90,277 95,014 180,739 187,529
Total revenue $ 507,725 $ 419,865 $ 884,498 $ 720,451
Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (“contract assets”), and deferred revenue (“contract liabilities”) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The majority of the Company’s contract amounts are billed as work progresses, in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, which generally coincide with the shipment of one or more phases of the project. Billing sometimes occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. The changes in contract assets and the corresponding amounts recorded in revenue relate to fluctuations in the timing and volume of billings.
C ontract assets are recorded within accounts receivable, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets on a contract-by-contract basis and consisted of the following at the end of each reporting period (in thousands):
June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Unbilled receivables $ 141,636 $ 101,513
The Company also receives advances or deposits from its customers, before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. The changes in contract liabilities relate to advanced orders and payments received by the Company.
Contract liabilities are recorded on a contract-by-contract basis and consisted of the following at the end of each reporting period (in thousands):
June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Deferred revenue $ 114,810 $ 178,922
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company converted $ 160.0 million in deferred revenue to revenue, which represented 89 % of the prior year’s deferred revenue balance.
Bill-and-Hold Arrangements
Revenue recognized for the Company’s federal investment tax credit (“ITC”) contracts and standalone system component sales is recorded at a point in time and recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with the Company’s customer are satisfied. Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the asset, which is typically upon delivery to the customer in line with shipping terms.
22
In certain situations, the Company recognizes revenue under a bill-and-hold arrangement with its customers. An example of such a situation is when customers purchase material prior to the start of construction of a solar project in order to meet the Five Percent Safe Harbor test to qualify for the ITC. Because the customers lack sufficient storage capacity to accept a large amount of material prior to the start of construction, they request that the Company keep the product in its custody. All bill-and-hold inventory is bundled or palletized in the Company’s warehouses, separately identified as not belonging to the Company and ready for immediate transport to the customer project upon request. Additionally, title and risk of loss has passed to the customer and the Company does not have the ability to use the product or direct it to another customer. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $ 3.5 million and $ 22.8 million, respectively, in revenue from a single customer for the sale of goods and services that contained bill-and-hold obligations such as storage, handling and other custodial duties.
Remaining Performance Obligations
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $ 452.7 million of remaining performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize revenue on 100 % of these performance obligations in the next twelve months .
10. Earnings Per Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):
Three Months Ended

Net income (loss) $ 64,808 $ ( 5,024 ) $ 90,940 $ ( 30,961 )
Preferred dividends and accretion 12,784 12,182 25,268 23,788
Net income (loss) to common shareholders $ 52,024 $ ( 17,206 ) $ 65,672 $ ( 54,749 )
Basic:
Weighted average shares 150,919 150,203 150,763 149,246
Income (loss) per share $ 0.34 $ ( 0.11 ) $ 0.44 $ ( 0.37 )
Diluted:
Effect of restricted stock and performance awards 1,210 — 1,207 —
Weighted average shares 152,129 150,203 151,970 149,246
Income (loss) per share $ 0.34 $ ( 0.11 ) $ 0.43 $ ( 0.37 )
Potentially dilutive common shares issuable pursuant to equity-based awards of 2,413 were not included for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as their potential effect was anti-dilutive given the Company generated a net loss to common shareholders.
There were no potentially dilutive common shares issuable pursuant to the Convertible Notes for both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, as the average market price of the Company’s common stock has not exceeded the exercise price since their issuance.

11. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
The Company, in the normal course of business, is subject to claims and litigation. The Company reviews the status of each matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company would accrue a liability for the estimated loss.
On May 14, 2021, a putative class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Southern District of New York” or the “Court”) against the Company and certain officers and directors alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5, promulgated thereunder, and Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 (“Plymouth Action”). The Plymouth Action alleges misstatements and/or omissions in the Company’s registration statements and prospectuses related to the Company’s October 2020 initial public offering (“IPO”), the Company’s December 2020 offering (the “2020 Follow-On Offering”), and the Company’s March 2021 offering (the “2021 Follow-On Offering”) during the putative class period of October 14, 2020 through May 11, 2021.
On June 30, 2021, a second putative class action was filed in the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain officers and directors alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5, promulgated thereunder, and Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 (“Keippel Action”). The Keippel Action similarly alleged misstatements and/or omissions in certain of the Company’s registration statements and prospectuses related to the Company’s IPO, the Company’s 2020 Follow-On Offering, and the Company’s 2021 Follow-On Offering during the putative class period of October 14, 2020 through May 11, 2021. On July 6, 2021, the Court entered an order that the Keippel Action was in all material respects substantially similar to the Plymouth Action that both actions arise out of the same or similar operative facts, and that the parties are substantially the same parties. The Court accordingly consolidated the Keippel Action with the Plymouth Action for all pretrial purposes and, ordered all filings to be made in the Plymouth Action.
On July 16, 2021, a verified derivative complaint was filed in the Southern District of New York against certain officers and directors of the Company (“First SDNY Derivative Action”). The complaint alleges: (1) violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for misleading proxy statements, (2) breach of fiduciary duty, (3) unjust enrichment, (4) abuse of control, (5) gross mismanagement, (6) corporate waste, (7) aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, and (8) contribution under sections 10(b) and 21D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On July 30, 2021, a second and related verified derivative complaint was filed in the Southern District of New York against certain officers and directors of the Company (“Second SDNY Derivative Action”). The complaint alleges: (1) violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for causing the issuance of a false/misleading proxy statement, (2) breach of fiduciary duty, and (3) aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty. On August 24, 2021, the Second SDNY Derivative Action was consolidated with the First SDNY Derivative Action, the Court appointed co-lead counsel, and the case was temporarily stayed pending the entry of an order on all motions to dismiss directed at the pleadings filed in the Plymouth Action. The stay shall remain in effect until the later of (a) the entry of an order on any motions to dismiss the Plymouth Action or, (b) to the extent the complaint in the Plymouth Action is amended, the entry of an order on any motions to dismiss any such amended complaints in the Plymouth Action.
24
On September 21, 2021, the Court in the Plymouth Action appointed a group comprised of institutional investors Plymouth County Retirement Association and Carpenters Pension Trust Fund for Northern California as lead plaintiff.
On December 7, 2021, an amended class action complaint was filed by lead plaintiff in the Plymouth Action against the Company and certain officers and directors alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5, promulgated thereunder, and Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, on behalf of a putative class of persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s securities during the period from October 14, 2020 through May 11, 2021 (the “Consolidated Amended Complaint”). The Consolidated Amended Complaint alleges misstatements and/or omissions in: (1) certain of the Company’s registration statements and prospectuses related to the Company’s IPO, the Company’s 2020 Follow-On Offering, and the Company’s 2021 Follow-On Offering; (2) in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and associated press release announcing results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2020; and (3) in the Company’s November 5, 2020 and March 9, 2021 earnings calls.
On August 17, 2022, the Court in the Plymouth Action set a briefing schedule for any motion to dismiss with the opening motion and supporting memorandum to be filed on or before October 17, 2022, any opposition to be filed on or before December 16, 2022, and any reply in support of the motion to be filed on or before January 16, 2023. The Company and other defendants in the Plymouth Action filed a joint motion to dismiss (the “Motion to Dismiss”) the Consolidated Amended Complaint on October 17, 2022. The lead plaintiff filed a motion opposing the Motion to Dismiss on December 16, 2022, and the Company and other defendants filed a reply in support of the motion to dismiss on January 17, 2023.
On May 19, 2023, the Court in the Plymouth Action granted the Company’s Motion to Dismiss. On July 5, 2023, the Court denied the lead plaintiffs’ request for leave to amend the Consolidated Amended Complaint and dismissed the Plymouth Action with prejudice.
On August 4, 2023, the lead plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal of the Court’s dismissal of the Consolidated Amended Complaint.
On August 3, 2022, a verified derivative complaint was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court of Chancery”) against certain officers and directors of the Company, asserting claims for: (1) breach of fiduciary duty and (2) unjust enrichment (“First Delaware Derivative Action”).
On August 11, 2022, a second verified derivative complaint was filed against certain officers and directors of the Company Court of Chancery, asserting claims for: (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty; (3) waste of corporate assets; (4) unjust enrichment; (5) insider selling; and (6) aiding and abetting insider selling (“Second Delaware Derivative Action”).
On September 2, 2022, the Second Delaware Derivative Action was consolidated with the First Delaware Derivative Action, the Court of Chancery appointed co-lead counsel, and the case was temporarily stayed pending the entry of an order on all motions to dismiss directed at the pleadings filed in the Plymouth Action. The stay shall remain in effect until the later of (a) the entry of an order on the pending motion to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Complaint in the Plymouth Action, (b) to the extent the Consolidated Amended Complaint in the Plymouth Action is further amended, the entry of an order on any motions to dismiss any such
25
amended complaints in the Plymouth Action, or (c) the public announcement of a settlement of the Plymouth Action.
At this time the Company believes that the likelihood of any material loss related to these matters is remote given the preliminary stage of the claims and strength of the Company’s defenses. The Company has not recorded any material loss contingency in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023.
Contingent Consideration
Tax Receivable Agreement
Concurrent with the Former Parent’s acquisition of Array Technologies Patent Holdings Co., LLC on July 8, 2016, the Company’s operating subsidiary, Array Tech, Inc. (f/k/a Array Technologies, Inc.), entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (the “TRA”) with the former majority shareholder of Array. The TRA is valued based on the future expected payments under the agreement. The TRA provides for the payment by Array Tech, Inc., to the former owners for certain federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax benefits deemed realized in post-closing taxable periods by Array Tech, Inc., from the use of certain deductions generated by the increase in the tax value of the developed technology. The TRA is accounted for as contingent consideration and subsequent changes in fair value of the contingent liability are recognized in contingent consideration on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the TRA was $ 9.4 million and $ 8.6 million, respectively.
Estimating the amount of payments that may be made under the TRA is by nature imprecise. The significant fair value inputs used to estimate the future expected TRA payments to the former owners include the timing of tax payments, a discount rate, book income projections, timing of expected adjustments to calculate taxable income and the projected rate of use for attributes defined in the TRA.
Payments made under the TRA consider tax positions taken by the Company and are due within 125 days following the filing of the Company’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns under procedures described in the agreement. The current portion of the TRA liability is based on tax returns. The TRA will continue until all tax benefit payments have been made or the Company elects early termination under the terms described in the TRA.
The following table summarizes the activity related to the estimated TRA liability (in thousands):
Three Months Ended
June 30, Six Months Ended
June 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Beginning balance $ 8,724 $ 9,364 $ 8,586 $ 14,578
Payments — — ( 1,200 ) ( 1,483 )
Fair value adjustment 705 ( 1,678 ) 2,043 ( 5,409 )
Ending balance $ 9,429 $ 7,686 $ 9,429 $ 7,686
The TRA liability requires significant judgment and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Surety Bonds
As of June 30, 2023, the Company posted surety bonds in the total amount of $ 220.9 million. The Company is required to provide surety bonds to various parties as required for certain transactions initiated during the
26
ordinary course of business to guarantee the Company’s performance in accordance with contractual or legal obligations. These off-balance sheet arrangements do not adversely impact the Company’s liquidity or capital resources.
12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s debt financial instruments were as follows (in thousands):
June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value
Convertible Notes $ 414,684 $ 486,362 $ 413,752 $ 430,236
The fair value of the Convertible Notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs, as they are not registered securities nor listed on any securities exchange but may be traded by qualified institutional buyers.
The Capped Calls are valued using a Black-Scholes model, with the most judgmental unobservable input being the volatility measure. The value of the Capped Call is determined using unobservable inputs and is considered to be a Level 3 value in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Capped Call was $ 64.0 million at June 30, 2023.
The fair value of the Term Loans and Other Debt is estimated using Level 2 inputs. The carrying values of the Term Loans outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit facility recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rates.
Other Debt totaling $ 50.4 million, consists of $ 34.6 million variable rate obligations and $ 15.8 million fixed rate obligations. Of the $ 15.8 million fixed rate obligations, $ 10.3 million mature in 2023 and $ 5.5 million mature in 2024. Due to the relative short-term maturity of these obligations, the Company believes current carrying value approximates fair value. The carrying value of the $ 34.6 million variable rate obligations approximate fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rates.
13. Equity-Based Compensation
2020 Equity Incentive Plan
On October 14, 2020, the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) became effective. The 2020 Plan authorized 6,683,919 new shares, subject to adjustments pursuant to the 2020 Plan.
Restricted Stock Units
Pursuant to the 2020 Plan, the Company grants restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees and members of the Company’s board of directors. The fair value of the RSUs is determined using the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.
27
RSU activity under the 2020 Plan during the six months ended June 30, 2023, was as follows:
Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding non-vested, December 31, 2022 1,700,824 $ 13.81
Shares granted 802,130 17.65
Shares vested ( 557,448 ) 12.47
Shares forfeited ( 117,511 ) 15.07
Outstanding non-vested, June 30, 2023 1,827,995 $ 15.57
Performance Stock Units
The Company has granted performance stock units (“PSUs”) to certain employees. The PSUs cliff vest after three years and upon meeting certain revenue and adjusted EPS targets. The PSUs also contain a modifier based on the total stock return (“TSR”) compared to a certain index which modifies the number of PSUs that vest. The PSUs were valued using a Monte-Carlo simulation method on the date of grant based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rates. The following assumptions were used in the Monte Carlo simulation for computing the grant date fair value of the PSUs issued during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
2023 2022
Volatility 90 % 66 %
Risk-free interest rate 3.74 % 28.00 %
Dividend yield — % — %
PSU activity under the 2020 Plan during the six months ended June 30, 2023, was as follows:
Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding non-vested, December 31, 2022 464,393 $ 11.96
Shares granted 263,594 19.22
Shares vested — —
Shares forfeited ( 1,465 ) 20.00
Outstanding non-vested, June 30, 2023 726,522 $ 14.62
For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $ 5.2 million and $ 3.0 million, respectively, in equity-based compensation expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $ 8.6 million and $ 7.5 million, respectively, in equity-based compensation. At June 30, 2023, the Company had $ 28.2 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to RSUs and PSUs, which are expected to be recognized over approximately 2.2 years and 2.4 years, respectively.
14 Segment Reporting
ASC 280 Segment Reporting establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Historically, the Company managed its business on the basis of one operating
and reportable segment. Concurrent with the acquisition of STI in January 2022, the Company began operating as two segments; Array Legacy Operations and STI Operations.
The following table provides a reconciliation of certain financial information for the Company’s reportable segments to information presented in its condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):
