Dr. Richard Lu, President and CEO of SolarBank commented: “The fantastic numbers demonstrated again our ability to execute and in nine months we have already exceeded the top end of the Company’s revenue guidance for fiscal 2024. With major milestones such as mechanical completion on the Honeywell projects, Nasdaq Global Market listing and Cboe Canada listing, the Company is continuing to deliver.”
The Company ended the third quarter of fiscal 2024 with $17.58 million in current assets, as compared to $22.05 million in current assets as of year end June 30, 2023. The decrease is mainly due to a decrease in unbilled revenue.
Current liabilities increased from $7.08 million as of year ended June 30, 2023 to $8.18 million in the current quarter, mainly due to an increase in trade and other payables.

2024 Year End Outlook
The Company is updating its guidance of expected full year revenue in fiscal 2024 of between $56 million and $61 million. The purpose of the financial outlook is to assist investors, shareholders, and others in understanding certain financial metrics relating to expected 2024 financial results for evaluating the performance of the Company’s business and is dated as of the date of this press release. This information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Information about the Company’s guidance, including the various assumptions underlying it, is forward-looking and should be read in conjunction with “Forward-Looking Statements” in this press release and the related disclosure and information about various economic, competitive, and regulatory assumptions, factors, and risks that may cause the Company’s actual future financial and operating results to differ from what it currently expects.
The Company notes that the execution of the Company’s growth strategy depends upon the continued availability of third-party financing arrangements for the Company and its customers and the Company’s future success depends partly on its ability to expand the pipeline of its energy business in several key markets. In addition, governments may revise, reduce or eliminate incentives and policy support schemes for solar and battery storage power, which could cause demand for the Company’s services to decline. Further the forecasted MW capacity of a solar project may not be reached.
