SUNation Energy, a leading provider of sustainable solar energy and backup power solutions, has announced the successful completion of key capital transactions that have strengthened its financial position. The company raised approximately $20 million through a securities purchase agreement with institutional investors and used a portion of the proceeds to eliminate $12.6 million of secured debt and other long-term contractual obligations.
One of the notable achievements was the full repayment of $9.4 million in senior and junior secured loans, which will eliminate monthly payment obligations and remove an average annual cash drain of $3.4 million through 2027. This strategic debt elimination will improve the company’s liquidity position and free up resources for reinvestment into growth initiatives.
The company’s CEO, Scott Maskin, stated that the debt reduction initiatives reflect SUNation’s commitment to meeting its financial obligations while strengthening its financial profile and capital base. The reduction in debt will lower annual interest expense, enhance cash flows, and provide flexibility to invest in long-term expansion and strategic options.
Additionally, the company announced that it has paid an aggregate $2.1 million in earnout consideration related to the acquisition of SUNation Solar Systems, Inc. and its affiliated entities in November 2022. This payment marks the full satisfaction of the $2.5 million earnout consideration.
The company expects to file its Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024, on or before April 15, 2025, which will provide detailed updates on its financial results, recent strategic developments, and business outlook. SUNation Energy’s proactive steps to reduce debt and improve its financial standing reflect its ongoing commitment to operational excellence, strategic growth, and delivering long-term value to shareholders.
