PRINCETON, N.J., Nov. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CWEN, CWEN.A) today reported third quarter 2022 financial results, including Net Income of $62 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $322 million, Cash from Operating Activities of $328 million, and Cash Available for Distribution (CAFD) of $154 million.

“While the current year financial guidance has been lowered due to forced outages at the Conventional segment, the prospects for long-term growth at Clearway remain exceptional,” said Christopher Sotos, Clearway Energy, Inc.’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “With the closing of TotalEnergies’ investment for 50% ownership of Clearway Group, our sponsor has further enhanced its ability to grow its renewable development pipeline. Additionally, with today’s announced drop-down offers and visibility into additional drop-down offers next year, the Company has line of sight to the future deployment of all of the $750 million of excess proceeds from the Thermal sale by the end of 2024. With this unprecedented visibility, Clearway remains on track to deliver at the upper range of its dividend growth target through 2026.”

Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Available for Distribution used in this press release are non-GAAP measures and are explained in greater detail under “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.

For the third quarter of 2022, the Company reported Net Income of $62 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $322 million, Cash from Operating Activities of $328 million, and CAFD of $154 million. Net Income increased versus 2021 primarily due to non-cash changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps as a result of an increase in LIBOR. Cash from Operating Activities increased versus 2021 primarily due to the contribution of growth investments. Adjusted EBITDA and CAFD results in the third quarter of 2022 were lower than 2021 due to forced outages at the Conventional segment and the disposition of the Thermal Business, partially offset by the contribution from growth investments.

In the third quarter of 2022, availability at the Conventional segment was lower than the third quarter of 2021 primarily due to forced outages at the El Segundo Energy Center and Walnut Creek facilities.

Total liquidity as of September 30, 2022, was $1,539 million, which was $718 million higher than as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to the proceeds received from the sale of the Thermal Business. This was partially offset by the execution of growth investments, the repayment of $305 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility and the repayment of $335 million under the Bridge Loan Agreement.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s liquidity included $363 million of restricted cash. Restricted cash consists primarily of funds to satisfy the requirements of certain debt arrangements and funds held within the Company’s projects that are restricted in their use. As of September 30, 2022, these restricted funds were comprised of $144 million designated to fund operating expenses, approximately $66 million designated for current debt service payments, and $124 million of reserves for debt service, performance obligations and other items including capital expenditures. The remaining $29 million is held in distribution reserve accounts.

Potential future sources of liquidity include excess operating cash flow, availability under the revolving credit facility, asset dispositions, and, subject to market conditions, new corporate debt and equity financings.

Growth Investments and Strategic Announcements 

Cash Equity Partnership Offers for 1.4 GW of Renewable and Energy Storage Projects

On October 31, 2022, Clearway Group offered the Company opportunities to enter into partnership arrangements to own cash equity interests in 1,408 MW of projects that will include wind, solar and solar plus storage assets expected to reach commercial operations between the second half of 2023 and the second half of 2024. The potential corporate capital commitment for the investments are expected to be approximately $410 million. The investments are subject to negotiation, both with Clearway Group and a third-party equity investor, and the review and approval by the Company’s Independent Directors.

Waiawa Solar Project

On October 3, 2022, the Company, through an indirect subsidiary acquired Waiawa BL Borrower Holdco LLC, the indirect owner of the Waiawa solar project, a 36 MW solar project with 144 MWh of storage capacity, located in Honolulu, Hawaii, from a subsidiary of Clearway Group, for cash consideration of $20 million. The project is expected to achieve commercial operations in the fourth quarter of 2022 and its expected output is backed by a 20-year power purchase agreement with an investment-grade utility.

TotalEnergies Acquisition of a 50% Interest in Clearway Group

On September 12, 2022, Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) closed a transaction whereby TotalEnergies acquired half of GIP’s interest in Clearway Group. TotalEnergies is expected to enhance growth prospects for the Clearway enterprise by providing (i) a right of first offer, through GIP, on its U.S. onshore renewable assets to the Company and (ii) access to TotalEnergies’ power marketing capabilities and corporate relationships to optimize the commercial value of the Clearway enterprise’s development and operating projects.

Resource Adequacy Agreement at El Segundo

On August 25, 2022, the Company announced that it had contracted for the El Segundo Energy Center to sell Resource Adequacy to Southern California Edison (SCE) commencing in August 2023. The agreement is for 100% of the facility’s net qualifying capacity and has a contract tenor of three years. With the execution of the contract, the Company has contracted 100% of the Resource Adequacy for the El Segundo Energy Center, Marsh Landing and Walnut Creek assets through approximately 2026.

Acquisition of 413 MW Wind Portfolio

On August 22, 2022, the Company acquired a portfolio of operating wind projects from Capistrano Wind Partners, LLC (Capistrano Portfolio) for a base purchase price of approximately $255 million before purchase price adjustments in the net amount of $16 million, representing total net consideration of $239 million. The transaction also included the assumption of $162 million of project level non-recourse debt. The Capistrano Portfolio consists of five utility-scale wind projects representing 413 MW of capacity located in Texas, Nebraska, and Wyoming that achieved commercial operations between 2008 to 2012. The assets within the portfolio sell power under power purchase agreements with investment-grade counterparties that have a weighted average remaining contract duration of approximately 10 years. Concurrent with the closing of the acquisition, the Company also entered into a Development Agreement with Clearway Group, whereby Clearway Group paid $10 million to the Company to partially fund the acquisition of the Capistrano Portfolio for an exclusive right to develop, construct, and repower the projects in the Capistrano Portfolio (Rights Fee)4.

The Company expects its total long-term corporate capital commitment for the acquisition to be approximately $110-130 million5 and is estimated to provide incremental annual levered asset CAFD on a five-year average basis of approximately $12-14 million beginning January 1, 2023.

Quarterly Dividend

On November 2, 2022, Clearway Energy, Inc.’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend on Class A and Class C common stock of $0.3672 per share payable on December 15, 2022, to stockholders of record as of December 1, 2022.

For 2022, the Company anticipates that, due to the sale of the Thermal Business, it may have positive current year earnings and profits. As a result, a portion of any dividends paid to holders of Class A and Class C common stock in 2022 may be treated as taxable dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Such portion of the dividends that could be treated as taxable will depend upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the amount of actual gain from the Thermal business sale, overall business performance, and other business activity during the year.

Seasonality

Clearway Energy, Inc.’s quarterly operating results are impacted by seasonal factors, as well as weather variability which can impact renewable energy resource. Most of the Company’s revenues are generated from the months of May through September, as contracted pricing and renewable resources are at their highest levels in the Company’s portfolio. Factors driving the fluctuation in Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Cash from Operating Activities, and CAFD include the following:

  • Higher summer capacity prices from conventional assets;

  • Higher solar insolation during the summer months;

  • Higher wind resources during the spring and summer months;

  • Debt service payments which are made either quarterly or semi-annually;

  • Timing of maintenance capital expenditures and the impact of both unforced and forced outages; and

  • Timing of distributions from unconsolidated affiliates

The Company takes into consideration the timing of these factors to ensure sufficient funds are available for distributions and operating activities on a quarterly basis.

Financial Guidance and Pro Forma CAFD Outlook

The Company is updating its 2022 full year CAFD guidance of $365 million to $350 million due to the forced outages experienced at the Conventional segment.

The Company is initiating 2023 full year CAFD guidance of $410 million. The Company’s 2023 financial guidance factors in the contribution of committed growth investments based on current expected closing timelines and estimates for merchant energy gross margin at the conventional fleet upon the expiry of their current toll contracts. 2023 CAFD guidance does not factor in the timing of when CAFD is realized from new growth investments pursuant to 5-year averages beyond 2023.

The Company is updating its pro forma CAFD outlook expectations from approximately $400 million to approximately $390 million.

Financial guidance and the pro forma CAFD outlook continue to be based on median renewable energy production estimates for the full year.

Earnings Conference Call

On November 2, 2022, Clearway Energy, Inc. will host a conference call at 8:00 a.m. Eastern to discuss these results. Investors, the news media and others may access the live webcast of the conference call and accompanying presentation materials by logging on to Clearway Energy, Inc.’s website at http://www.clearwayenergy.com and clicking on “Presentations & Webcasts” under “Investor Relations.”
