(in thousands)
−Removed: Revenues decreased by $72.5 million, or 17.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to decreased sales in the U.S.
−Removed: which we attribute principally to the adverse effect of the COVID 19 pandemic on the economy in the United States.
−Removed: This decrease was partially offset by $18.5 million of increased sales in Europe and the rest of world.
+Added: Revenues decreased by $25.7 million, or 6.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, partially due to decreased sales of $84.3 million in the U.S.
+Added: which we attribute principally to the high level of safe harbor-related revenues in the amount of $51.4 million generated in the United States in the first quarter of 2020 which did not occur in 2021 due to the expected extension of the Solar Investment Tax Credits, as well as to the negative impact of COVID-19 on the economy in the United States which has not yet returned to pre-COVID installation rates and a change in our customer mix in the United States towards larger customers that enjoy preferable pricing.
+Added: The lower revenues from the United States were partially offset by an increase of $46.1 million and $12.5 million of revenues from Europe and the rest of world, respectively where the COVID effect on demand was smaller.
Revenues from outside of the U.S.
−Removed: comprised 68.4% of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 51.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2019.
−Removed: In our solar business, we expect that in the fourth quarter of 2020, revenues from Europe will decrease due to seasonality which is typically experienced in Europe during the colder months.
−Removed: This reduction is expected to be offset by higher anticipated revenues in the United States which we expect will result in a slight increase in the overall revenues in the fourth quarter of 2020 as compared to the third quarter of 2020.
−Removed: It is also expected that the fourth quarter results will include revenues from the sale of full powertrain kits to an automative OEM by our eMobility business which is part of our non-solar business.

−Removed: The number of inverters recognized as revenues decreased by approximately 30,800 units, or 16.5%, from approximately 187,000 units in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to approximately 156,200 units in the three months ended September 30, 2020.
−Removed: Our blended ASP per watt for solar products shipped decreased by $0.049, or 18.5%, in the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019.
−Removed: This reduction is primarily attributed to an increased rate of revenues driven from the sale of commercial products mainly in the U.S that are characterized with lower ASP per watt as well as a change in our customer mix in the United States towards larger customers that enjoy preferable pricing.
−Removed: This ASP erosion was partially offset by the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S.
+Added: comprised 59.7% of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to 42.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Cost of revenues
−Removed: Cost of revenues decreased by $41.2 million, or 15.2%, in the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to:
−Removed: a decrease in the volume of products sold;
−Removed: decreased shipment and logistics costs of $16.0 million mainly attributed to lower custom tariff charges on Chinese made products imported into the U.S resulting from a decrease in sales in the U.S and a higher portion of our products manufactured outside of China that were imported into the U.S.
−Removed: In addition, a decrease in air shipment costs resulted from higher inventory levels.
−Removed: a decrease in warranty expenses and warranty accruals of $6.6 million associated with various cost reductions on the different elements of our warranty expenses which include the cost of the products, shipment and other related expenses;
−Removed: These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $8.1 million in other production costs, which were mainly attributed to:
−Removed: $1.3 million related to ramp up costs associated with the commencement of production in the Sella 1 manufacturing facility;
−Removed: $2.9 million related to ramp up manufacturing expenses in the SolarEdge e-Mobility division.
−Removed: In our solar business we anticipate that our cost of revenues per unit will decrease in the last quarter of 2020 due to realization of cost reduction activities conducted in the previous quarters.
−Removed: Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 33.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 32.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to:
+Added: Cost of revenues decreased by $25.8 million, or 8.9%, in the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily due to:
a decrease in the volume of products sold;
−Removed: increased rate of actual support costs related to our warranty obligations due to an increase in our install base from past sales which effects the calculation of such costs as a percentage of our revenues since our install base grew in 2020 while revenues decreased compared to the same quarter of 2019, resulting in a higher rate of warranty expenses to revenues.
−Removed: an increase in other production costs and inventory valuation accruals as well as other expenses related to reduced manufacturing volumes due to COVID-19;
−Removed: lower gross profit from our e-Mobility and Automation Machines divisions, coupled with ramp up manufacturing expenses in our e-Mobility division.
+Added: decreased shipment and logistics costs of $24.6 million mainly attributed to lower United States tariff charges due to a higher portion of our products for the United States manufactured outside of China as well as a decrease in revenues from the United States compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020.
+Added: In addition, we incurred less air shipment costs resulting from higher inventory levels;
+Added: These were partially offset by:
+Added: an increase in warranty expenses and warranty accruals of $3.6 million associated with different elements of our warranty expenses which include the cost of the products, shipment and other related expenses;
+Added: an increase of $5.2 million in inventory accrual which is mainly attributed to changes in raw material inventory valuations related to manufacturing volumes, anticipated future use of such raw materials and inventory write-offs.
+Added: Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased from 32.5% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 34.5% in the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to:
+Added: the absence of safe harbor related sales, that were characterized with a lower gross margin in the first quarter of 2020;
+Added: decreased shipment and logistics costs mainly attributed to a decrease in the portion of products made in China resulting in reduced custom tariffs, a decrease in revenues in the U.S.
+Added: and a decrease in air shipments costs resulting from higher inventory levels;
+Added: favorable exchange rates on our sales outside of the Unites States;
+Added: continued cost reduction efforts.
These factors were partially offset by:
−Removed: decreased shipment and logistics costs mainly attributed to lower custom tariff charges on Chinese made products imported into the U.S resulting from a decrease in sales in the U.S and a higher portion of our products manufactured outside of China that were imported into the U.S.
−Removed: In addition, a decrease in air shipments costs resulted from higher inventory levels;
−Removed: decreased warranty accruals due to various cost reductions on the different elements of our warranty expenses which include the cost of the products, shipment and other related expenses and a change in the product mix sold in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in the previous year.
−Removed: We expect that gross margin as a percent of revenues will remain similar in the fourth quarter of 2020 to that of the third quarter of 2020.
−Removed: In light of the uncertain impact of COVID-19 on the rate of growth of our acquired businesses, accounting estimates and assumptions related to goodwill, intangible and other assets may change over time in response to uncertain circumstances related to this evolving situation.
−Removed: Such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangible and other assets.
+Added: an increase in support costs related to our warranty obligations due to an increase in our install base which affects the calculation of such costs as a percentage of our revenues since our install base grew in 2021 while revenues decreased compared to the same quarter in 2020, resulting in a higher rate of warranty expenses to revenues;
+Added: an increase in inventory valuation accruals;
