Adjustments were made for the years 2023–2025 following a change in accounting policy; for further details, see Appendix 4 in the Earning release

Summary of key financial results for 4Q25 and 2025

2026 guidance

Financial guidance

Key assumptions underlying the forecast:

Construction and commissioning

3 Total revenues and income include revenues from the sale of electricity along with income from tax benefits from US projects amounting to $160-180m.

4 FGW (Factored GW) is the company’s consolidated metric combining generation and storage capacity into a uniform figure based on the ratio of construction costs. Current weighted average construction cost ratio is 3.5 GWh of storage per 1 GW of generation: FGW = GW + GWh / 3.5.

Adi Leviatan, CEO of Enlight Renewable Energy: “Enlight concludes 2025 with strong results and clear execution momentum. This year, we once again demonstrated our strength in developing and advancing a broad and diversified project portfolio from the development stages, through construction, grid connection and operations. As we enter 2026, the company expects another year of meaningful growth and strong execution momentum, with an accelerated pace of construction and commissioning, alongside the development of new growth engines. As electricity demand surges and is expected to continue rising, renewable energy is the most cost effective and fastest solution to meet this demand. Under these market conditions, Enlight is well positioned to continue to lead, with a proven global strategy and robust execution capabilities.”

Portfolio Review

This quarter Enlight continued to expand its portfolio and advance projects through the various phases of development. As of the earning release date, Enlight’s total portfolio is comprised of 20.6 GW of generation capacity and 61 GWh energy storage (totaling 38 FGW), an increase of 26% from the total portfolio of 30.2 FGW at the end of 2024. Of this, the mature component of the portfolio (including operating projects, projects under construction or in pre-construction) contains 6.4 GW generation capacity and 17.5 GWh of storage (11.4 FGW in total), an increase of 33% from the mature component of 8.6 FGW at the end of 2024. Enlight’s mature storage component, a primary growth engine for the company, has surged by 105% over the past 12 months.

The growth of the mature component stems primarily from the completion of development for the CO Bar complex, a mega-project and one of the largest in the US. Located in Arizona, the complex comprises five phases with a total capacity of approximately 1.2 GW of solar generation and 4 GWh of energy storage capacity (approximately 2.4 FGW).

As of the earnings release date, Enlight has met Safe Harbor requirements, securing eligibility for US tax benefits for a total capacity of 13.2 FGW. Of this total, 4.3 FGW secured Safe Harbor status within the last three months. This capacity encompasses the entire mature component of the U.S. portfolio (6.4 FGW), as well as approximately 6.8 FGW of projects in the advanced development and development components. In addition, 18 FGW with high likelihood to achieve grid interconnection, having completed the System Impact Study.

The composition of Enlight’s portfolio appears in the following table:

5 As of February 16, 2026 (“the Approval Date”).

The following projects in the U.S. advanced to the under-construction component:

With the completion of the current Mature portfolio by year-end 2028, Enlight’s operating capacity is expected to rise to 12-13 FGW and to generate an annualized revenues and income run rate of $2.1-$2.3bn.

Roadmap to Revenues and Income Run-Rate of ~$2.1-2.3bn by the end of 2028 6

6 Expected Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 70%-80% (including tax benefits) for the years shown. FGW (Factored GW) is a consolidated metric combining generation and storage capacity into a uniform figure based on the ratio of construction costs. The company’s current weighted average construction cost ratio is 3.5 GWh of storage per 1 GW of generation: FGW = GW + GWh / 3.5. The expected growth in 2028 encompasses the Company’s operations in all geographies. Expected growth relies on business plans which rely on development conditions and assumptions regarding electricity prices, and are contingent on current trends known to the Company at this time; The company's revenues from tax benefits are estimated at approximately 19-23% of the total revenues & income run rate for December 2025; approximately 24-28% of the total revenue run rate for December 2026, and approximately 28-33% of the total revenues & income run rate for December 2027 and December 2028.

Financial Results Analysis

Revenues & Income

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company’s total revenues and income increased to $152m, up from $104m last year, a growth rate of 46% year over year. This was composed of revenues from the sale of electricity, which rose 33% to $124m compared to $104m in the same period of 2024, as well as recognition of $28m in income from tax benefits compared to $11m in 3Q24.

Most of the increase is attributed to newly operational projects. In the past 12 months 452 MW and 1,535 MWh of new projects were connected to the grid and began selling electricity. An addition of $23 million is attributed to the Atrisco in the U.S which started operating at year-end 2024, while Roadrunner and Quail Ranch which started operating towards the end of 2025, contributed an addition of $8 million. In MENA, the increase in electricity trade activity in Israel and an increase in the Genesis project output due to favorable wind conditions, contributed an increase of $8 million combined. In Europe, the Pupin project in Serbia, which started operating towards the end of 2024, contributed $5 million to the increase in revenue and income. Exchange rates fluctuations, mainly the depreciation of the US dollar against the shekel and the euro, contributed $7 million to the increase in revenue and income.

Net Income

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company reported a net income of $21m, compared to $8m in the same period last year, an increase of 153%. The growth is attributed to the growth in revenues and income ($48 million), while exchange rates fluctuations contributed $7 million. These were partially offset by an increase of $13 million in operating expenses, an increase of $12 million in depreciation and amortization (mainly attributed to newly recognized depreciation expenses in new projects), and an increase of $10 million in finance and tax expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA 8

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA grew by 51% to $99m in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $65m for the same period in 2024. Growth in revenues and income was offset by an increase of $11m in cost of sales linked to the addition of new projects, and an increase of $3m in G&A and Development expenses.

8 The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort because items that impact this IFRS financial measure are not within the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Please refer to the reconciliation table in Appendix 2.

Supplemental Financial and Other Information

We intend to announce material information to the public through the Enlight investor relations website at https://enlightenergy.co.il/info/investors, SEC filings, press releases, public conference calls, and public webcasts. We use these channels to communicate with our investors, customers, and the public about our company, our offerings, and other issues. As such, we encourage investors, the media, and others to follow the channels listed above, and to review the information disclosed through such channels. Any updates to the list of disclosure channels through which we will announce information will be posted on the investor relations page of our website.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This release presents Adjusted EBITDA, a financial metric, which is provided as a complement to the results provided in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”). A reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial information to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is provided in the accompanying tables found at the end of this release.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, finance expenses, taxes on income and share in losses of equity accounted investees and minus finance income and non-recurring portions of other income, net. For the purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA, compensation for inadequate performance of goods and services procured by the Company are included in other income, net. Compensation for inadequate performance of goods and services reflects the profits the Company would have generated under regular operating conditions and is therefore included in Adjusted EBITDA. With respect to gains (losses) from asset disposals, as part of Enlight’s strategy to accelerate growth and reduce the need for equity financing, the Company sells parts of or the entirety of selected renewable project assets from time to time, and therefore includes realized gains or losses from these asset disposals in Adjusted EBITDA. In the case of partial assets disposals, Adjusted EBITDA includes only the actual consideration less the book value of the assets sold. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is indicative of operational performance and ongoing profitability and uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance and for planning and forecasting purposes.

Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial information presented under IFRS. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-IFRS financial measures versus comparable financial measures determined under IFRS. For example, other companies in our industry may calculate the non-IFRS financial measures that we use differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. All of these limitations could reduce the usefulness of our non-IFRS financial measures as analytical tools. Investors are encouraged to review the related IFRS financial measure, Net Income, and the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA provided below to Net Income and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Appendix 4 – Change in accounting policy

Until September 30, 2025, interest paid and interest received were presented within cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In accordance with IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, entities are permitted to classify interest paid and interest received as operating, investing, or financing cash flows, provided that the selected classification is applied consistently from period to period.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, management elected to change the classification of interest paid, including payments relating to interest rate swap (IRS) instruments to cash flows used in financing activities, and interest received to cash flows from investing activities. Management believes that this change in presentation provides a more comprehensive view of the cost of financing the Company's operations and better reflects management’s view of the financing nature of these transactions.

Accordingly, comparative information has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect this change in accounting policy in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, as presented below:
