Did SEDG Beat Earnings? Q1 2026 Results
No. SolarEdge reported Q1 2026 earnings of $-0.43 a share on May 6, 2026, missing the $-0.27 consensus estimate by 59.9%. Revenue was $310.5M against a $305.5M estimate.
SolarEdge Technologies posted a mixed first quarter for 2026, delivering a revenue beat while falling short on the bottom line in a result that snapped the company's four-consecutive-quarter streak of meeting or beating EPS consensus. Revenue came in at $310.50 million, up 41.5% year over year and narrowly ahead of the $305.47 million Wall Street had expected, yet a one-time charge of approximately $14.00 million weighed heavily on profitability, pushing the GAAP loss per share to $-0.43 and missing the $-0.269 consensus by 59.85%. Excluding that charge, non-GAAP loss per share would have been closer to $-0.20, roughly in line with the prior quarter. On a positive note, non-GAAP gross margin expanded for a sixth consecutive quarter to 23.5%, and the company generated $20.73 million in free cash flow. Management, signaling a strategic shift toward growth, guided Q2 revenue of $325 million to $355 million and expressed confidence that breakeven operating profitability is within reach at the midpoint of that range.
- 46% year-over-year revenue growth
- Sixth consecutive quarter of margin expansion
- Approximately 50,500 inverters, 2.4 million optimizers, and 331 MWh of batteries recognized as revenue
- Positive free cash flow generation of $20.7 million
“Our first quarter results reflect strong execution, continued innovation, and business acceleration, with 46% year-over-year revenue growth and a sixth consecutive quarter of margin expansion.”
