Business Overview We are a global energy technology company. We deliver smart, easy-to-use solutions that manage solar generation, storage and communication on one platform. Our intelligent microinverters work with virtually every solar panel made, and when paired with our smart technology, result in one of the industry’s best-performing clean energy systems. As of June 30, 2026, we have shipped approximately 89.4 million microinverters, and more than 5.3 million Enphase residential and commercial systems have been deployed in over 165 countries. The Enphase® Energy System brings a high technology, networked approach to solar generation plus energy storage, by leveraging our design expertise across power electronics, semiconductors and cloud-based software technologies. Our integrated approach to energy solutions maximizes a home’s energy potential while providing advanced monitoring and remote maintenance capabilities. The Enphase Energy System uses a single technology platform for seamless management of the whole solution of IQ® Microinverters, IQ® Batteries, IQ® Load Controllers, and IQ® EV Charger, allowing rapid commissioning with the Enphase® Installer App, consumption monitoring with our IQ® Combiner™ device with our Enphase IQ® Gateway™ device, and our Enphase® App, a cloud-based energy management platform. System owners can use the Enphase App to monitor their home’s solar generation, energy storage and consumption from any web-enabled device. Unlike some of our competitors, who utilize a traditional inverter, or offer separate components of solutions, we have built-in system redundancy in both photovoltaic generation and energy storage, eliminating the risk that comes with a single point of failure. Further, the nature of our cloud-based, monitored system allows for remote firmware and software updates, enabling cost-effective remote maintenance and ongoing utility compliance. Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 32 Table of Contents We sell primarily to solar distributors who combine our products with others, including solar module products and racking systems, and resell to installers in each target region. In addition to our solar distributors, we sell directly to select large installers, original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and strategic partners. Our OEM customers include solar module manufacturers who integrate our microinverters with their solar module products and resell to both distributors and installers. Strategic partners include a variety of companies, including industrial equipment suppliers, module companies, energy suppliers and developers of third-party solar finance offerings (such as TPOs). We also sell certain products and services to homeowners primarily in support of our warranty services and legacy product upgrade programs, via our online store. Events Affecting our Business and Operations As we have a growing global footprint, we are subject to risk and exposure from the evolving macroeconomic environment, including the effects of military conflicts (including the Iran conflict), increased global inflationary pressures, tariffs and interest rates, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, potential economic slowdowns or recessions, geopolitical pressures and potential regulatory changes, including the unknown impacts of current and future trade regulations. We continuously monitor the direct and indirect impacts of these circumstances on our business and financial results. One Big Beautiful Bill Act. In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was enacted, introducing material changes to clean energy tax credit programs that are significant to our business and may impact our financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. The OBBBA scales back the Investment Tax Credit (the “ITC”) available under Section 25D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), for residential solar and storage systems purchased through cash or loans. Under the new law, the Section 25D credit expired on December 31, 2025. In addition, the OBBBA imposes new timing requirements for eligibility under Section 48E of the Code, which governs ITCs for leased solar and storage systems. Specifically, solar-only projects that did not commence construction within 12 months of the OBBBA’s enactment must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 in order to remain eligible for the credit. Energy storage projects are not subject to this placed-in-service deadline; however, the ITC for storage systems will begin to phase down in 2034 — decreasing to 75% in 2034, 50% in 2035 and phasing out entirely by 2036. The OBBBA also amends the domestic content bonus credit rules for Section 48E projects. Projects commencing construction after June 16, 2025 must meet a 45% domestic cost threshold, up from 40%. Additionally, the OBBBA introduces new compliance requirements under the FEOC provisions for both Section 48E of the Code and the Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit (“AMPTC”) under Section 45X of the Code. These provisions establish an escalating threshold of non-FEOC content that must be met by solar and storage projects beginning construction in 2026 and by manufactured components produced beginning in 2026. In August 2025, U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued revised “beginning of construction” guidance for clean energy tax credits that only applies to Section 48E projects above 1 MW. In February 2026, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS issued guidance under the OBBBA’s FEOC provisions applicable to Sections 48E and 45X of the Code, including rules and interim safe harbors for determining whether projects or manufactured components receive material assistance from prohibited foreign entities. Treasury and the IRS have indicated that additional proposed regulations and safe harbor tables are expected, including guidance addressing ownership, effective control, debt, licensing arrangements and anti‑circumvention matters, which could make the compliance requirements more restrictive over time. These legislative and regulatory developments have impacted and may in the future negatively impact our eligibility for certain tax credits, the attractiveness of our offerings to solar and storage system lease providers, or the overall demand for our products. If we are unable to meet the revised domestic content or FEOC requirements, our ability to qualify for these incentives could be impaired, which may adversely affect our revenue, gross margins, business operations and competitive position. In March 2026, we entered into an agreement for the sale of $235.0 million of AMPTC we generated during 2025 at 93% of face value, resulting in a discount of approximately $16.5 million. We also incurred approximately $2.5 million in transaction-related fees. In June 2026, we entered into an agreement for the sale of up to $150.0 million of AMPTC we generated during 2026 at 93% of face value. Of such $150.0 million, in June 2026 we sold $37.5 million of AMPTC generated Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 33 Table of Contents in the first quarter of 2026 for approximately $34.9 million and incurred approximately $0.5 million in transaction-related fees. Trade Tariff Uncertainties. The impact of new or existing tariffs, trade restrictions or retaliatory actions on us, the solar industry and our customers continues to create uncertainty and adversely affect our business operations. On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court issued a decision invalidating certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA"). Following this ruling, the U.S. Court of International Trade directed U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to establish a process for the submission and review of refund claims related to eligible IEEPA tariffs. On April 20, 2026, CBP launched an online portal through which companies may submit refund requests for eligible IEEPA tariffs. We received refunds and associated interest of approximately $41.0 million and $11.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026 and in July 2026, respectively, from CBP related to tariffs paid during fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026, of which $45.4 million was recognized as a reduction to cost of revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, $1.6 million was recognized as interest income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and $5.0 million was capitalized as a cost of inventory as of June 30, 2026. We have submitted additional refund claims for tariffs previously paid and continue to evaluate the recoverability of these amounts. As the approval and timing of such refunds remain uncertain and are contingent upon CBP’s review and validation process, we have not recognized a receivable as of June 30, 2026 and will not recognize such amounts until they are realized or realizable. The ultimate impact of any future approved refunds, if any, could be material. Furthermore, following the Supreme Court's decision, the Administration imposed a temporary import surcharge under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 (“Section 122”). The surcharge was initially set at 10% ad valorem on all imports, and subsequently increased to 15%, the statutory maximum, with certain exceptions for specified commodities (e.g., electronics, critical minerals) and United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement qualified products. The surcharge took effect on February 24, 2026, for a maximum period of 150 days. On May 7, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade held that the Section 122 proclamation was invalid. The government has appealed the ruling, and the Federal Circuit issued a temporary stay pending appeal. On July 23, 2026, following an investigation initiated on June 2, 2026 under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, the Administration announced new tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on imports from 60 trading partners. These tariffs were announced shortly before the expiration of the Section 122 tariffs on July 24, 2026. The tariffs apply to many of the countries from whom we source materials and can include some products material to our business. The evolving legal status, and expiration of the Section 122 tariffs creates additional uncertainty regarding our tariff exposure and any potential recovery of Section 122 duties paid during the quarter. If the Section 122 proclamation is ultimately held invalid and refund mechanisms are established, we may be eligible to recover some or all of the Section 122 duties paid. However, the outcome of the appeal and the availability, timing and amount of any potential refunds remain uncertain and are subject to further judicial and administrative proceedings. No receivable for potential Section 122 tariff refunds has been recognized as of June 30, 2026. We have moved a significant portion of our manufacturing to the United States while continuing to utilize contract manufacturing in China and India. However, certain critical components for our products are still sourced from outside the United States. For example, lithium iron phosphate (“LFP”) battery cells used in our storage products are still supplied solely by two vendors located in China. Although we are in the process of searching for other vendors outside of China for future supplies, the expertise and industry for the LFP battery cell is primarily in China, and it will require significant effort to identify alternative, qualified suppliers with the right expertise to develop our battery cells. An escalation in trade tensions or the implementation of broader tariffs, trade restrictions or retaliatory measures on our products or components originating from countries outside the United States could adversely impact our ability to source necessary components, manufacture products at competitive cost, or sell our products at prices customers are willing to pay. Any such developments could materially and adversely affect our business operations, results of operations and cash flows. Safe Harbor Agreements. We executed agreements year-to-date through the safe harbor deadline with TPO customers for products totaling approximately $1,081.1 million, of which $202.4 million is under the ITC Five Percent Safe Harbor method and $878.6 million is under the Physical Work Test beginning-of-construction method. These arrangements are designed to support customers’ qualification for ITC and have become an increasingly important growth channel for U.S. residential solar and battery adoption following the expiration of the residential ITC under Section 25D of the Code on December 31, 2025. Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 34 Table of Contents As of June 30, 2026, contract liabilities included in deferred revenues, current and deferred revenues, non-current on the condensed consolidated balance sheet includes approximately $105.8 million prepayments or billings under the ITC Five Percent Safe Harbor method for products to be delivered in the third and fourth quarters of 2026, and approximately $45.6 million prepayments or billings under the Physical Work Test beginning-of-construction method. Product deliveries and revenue recognition associated with these arrangements may occur over multiple periods through the second quarter of 2031 and are dependent on the timing of product shipment and satisfaction of performance obligations. As a result, the timing and structure of these safe harbor arrangements have contributed to increased variability in the timing of revenue recognition and cash flows between reporting periods. Demand for Products. The prolonged softness in demand in the solar industry has continued to adversely impact certain distributors and installers, contributing to reduced liquidity, bankruptcies and business closures across the channel. These disruptions have negatively affected our revenue and profitability and could result in higher allowances for credit losses in the future. In Europe, the overall business environment across the region is still challenging, and is expected to remain constrained in 2026. In the United States, uncertainty related to changes in legislation, including from the OBBBA, which eliminated or reduced existing tax credits for clean energy programs, as well as evolving U.S. trade and tariff policies, may further contribute to market volatility and adversely impact customer demand for our products, pricing and our financial performance.

This $20.7 million change primarily reflects the cumulative rate catch-up adjustment in the current quarter and tax effects related to the IEEPA tariff refund. The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was calculated using the annualized effective tax rate method and primarily reflects tax benefits associated with the impact of the AMPTC. While AMPTC is directly related to qualifying production and shipment activity and pretax income, it is treated as permanent items for income tax accounting purposes and is excluded from the annualized effective tax rate calculation. As a result, our effective tax rate for the period reflects the impact of these permanent benefits and may not be indicative of the statutory tax rate or expected annual effective tax rate. The benefits from the AMPTC were offset by tax expense from the cumulative rate catch up adjustment in the current quarter, profitable foreign jurisdictions and tax effects of the IEEPA tariff refund. We continue to apply the interim income tax methodology prescribed by ASC 740‑270. Six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded an income tax provision of $19.4 million, as compared to an income tax provision of $22.3 million in the same period in 2025. This $3.0 million change primarily reflects the lower profitability in current-year period, principally in the United States, and tax effects related to the IEEPA tariff refund.

We continue to apply the interim income tax methodology prescribed by ASC 740‑270. Liquidity and Capital Resources Sources of Liquidity As of June 30, 2026, we had $1.4 billion in net working capital, including cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $937.7 million, of which $766.8 million was held in the United States. Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities primarily consist of U.S. Government agency securities and treasuries, money market mutual funds, corporate notes and bonds, commercial paper and certificates of deposit, and both interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing deposits, with the remainder held in various foreign subsidiaries. We consider amounts held outside the United States to be accessible and have provided for the estimated withholding tax liability on the repatriation of our foreign earnings. Six Months Ended June 30, Change in 2026 2025 $ % (In thousands, except percentages) Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities $ 937,708 $ 1,530,184 $ (592,476) (39) % Total debt $ 572,836 $ 1,202,719 $ (629,883) (52) % Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased by $592.5 million from June 30, 2025 to June 30, 2026, primarily due to payoff of the Notes due 2026, investments in private and public companies, issuance of loan receivables and payments of withholding taxes related to net share settlement of equity awards, partially offset by cash generated from operations and the sale of AMPTC we generated during 2025 and the first quarter of 2026. Total carrying amount of debt decreased by $629.9 million from June 30, 2025 to June 30, 2026, primarily due to the payoff of the Notes due 2026, partially offset by accretion of issuance costs. We expect our principal short-term cash requirements (over the next 12 months) to include working capital, strategic investments, acquisitions, repurchases of common stock and payments of withholding taxes for net share settlement of employee equity awards, payments on our outstanding debt, and purchases of property and equipment. We plan to fund any cash requirements for the next 12 months from our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand, and cash generated from operations. For the long-term period (beyond 12 months), we plan to continue growing cash flows from operations and sale of AMPTC to support our business operations and strategic investment plans. We regularly evaluate our liquidity position, debt obligations and anticipated cash needs. As part of this ongoing assessment, we may pursue additional financing through the issuance of equity or debt, as necessary, to support our operational and investment needs. We anticipate that access to the debt market will be more constrained compared to prior periods due to elevated interest rates and recent policy changes to solar tax incentives following the enactment of the OBBBA. Our ability to secure debt or any other additional financing that we may choose to, or need to, obtain, will depend on various factors including our development efforts, business plans, operating performance and prevailing capital market conditions. Repurchase of Common Stock. In July 2023, our board of directors authorized the 2023 Repurchase Program pursuant to which we could repurchase up to $1.0 billion of our common stock. Repurchases were funded from available working capital and marketable securities and were executed from time to time, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including under Rule 10b5-1 plans. As of June 30, 2026, $268.7 million remained available for share repurchases under the 2023 Repurchase Program. In July 2026, our board of directors authorized an extension of the term of the 2023 Repurchase Program. The expiration date of the 2023 Repurchase Program was extended from July 26, 2026 to July 26, 2029, unless terminated earlier by the board of directors. All other terms of the 2023 Repurchase Program remain unchanged. Convertible Notes. As of June 30, 2026, our aggregate principal convertible notes obligations were the Notes due 2028 of $575.0 million. Upon any conversion of the Notes due 2028, we expect to pay cash equal to the Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 42 Table of Contents principal amount, and at our election, we will pay or deliver cash and/or shares of our common stock for any conversion premium. Operating Leases. We have entered into various non-cancelable operating leases primarily for our facilities with original lease periods expiring through the year 2034, with the most significant leases relating to our offices in Fremont and Petaluma, California, Arlington, Texas and Bengaluru, India. As of June 30, 2026, we had total operating lease obligations of $40.5 million recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Other Material Cash Requirements. As of June 30, 2026, we had open purchase obligations of $236.1 million related to component inventory that we and our primary contract manufacturers procure on our behalf in accordance with our production forecast as well as other inventory related purchase commitments. The timing of purchases in future periods could differ materially from estimates presented above due to fluctuations in demand requirements related to varying sales levels as well as changes in economic conditions. Cash Flows. The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented: Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 (In thousands) Net cash provided by operating activities $ 143,194 $ 75,043 Net cash provided by investing activities 566,847 61,875 Net cash used in financing activities (649,555) (241,730) Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash (5,460) 11,232 Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 55,026 $ (93,580) Cash Flows from Operating Activities Cash flows from operating activities consisted of our net income adjusted for certain non-cash reconciling items, such as stock-based compensation expense, discount from the sale of AMPTC generated during 2025, asset impairment, non-cash interest expense, change in the fair value of debt securities, deferred income taxes, depreciation and amortization, amortization (accretion) of premium (discount) on marketable securities, provision for credit losses, and changes in our operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $68.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to net cash proceeds of $218.1 million and $34.9 million we received in March 2026 and June 2026, respectively, for the sale of $235.0 million and $37.5 million, respectively, of AMPTC contributing to a favorable change in working capital, partially offset by $207.1 million higher cash outflows from accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash used in financing activities of approximately $241.7 million was primarily from payment of $130.0 million used to repurchase our common stock under the 2023 Repurchase Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 43 Table of Contents Program, $102.2 million towards the settlement of the Notes due 2025, and payment of $15.0 million in employee withholding taxes related to net share settlement of employee equity awards, partially offset by net proceeds from purchases under our employee stock purchase plan of $5.4 million. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We consider an accounting policy to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the condensed consolidated financial statements. There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies as described in the Form 10-K. Adoption of New and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements For a discussion of adoption of new and recently issued accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 1, “Description of Business and Basis of Presentation”, of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
There have been no material changes in our market risk compared to the disclosures in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”, in the Form 10-K. Also see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A in the Form 10-K.

From time to time, we might be subject to various legal proceedings relating to claims arising out of our operations. The outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were resolved against us in a reporting period for amounts above management’s expectations, our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected. Except as described in this Item 1, we are not currently involved in any material legal proceedings, the ultimate disposition of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition or cash flows.

On December 31, 2024, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed purportedly on our behalf against Trustees Defendants, our non-employee directors and us (as nominal defendant) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Hirani v. Kothandaraman, et al., Case No. 4:24-cv-09532 (the “Hirani Action”). The Hirani Action asserts claims for breaches of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, and violations of Sections 14(a), 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act based on the purported dissemination of substantially the same allegedly false and misleading statements asserted in the Pension Fund Action. The Hirani Action is seeking unspecified damages and other relief, including reforms and improvements to our corporate governance and internal procedures. On January 17, 2025, another shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed purportedly on our behalf against Defendants II, our non-employee directors and us (as nominal defendant) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Hanowski v. Kothandaraman, et al., Case No. 4:25-cv-000652 (the “Hanowski Action”). The Hanowski Action asserts claims substantially similar to those asserted in the Hirani Action, also based on the same allegedly false and misleading statements asserted in the Pension Fund Action. The Hanowski Action is seeking unspecified damages and other relief, including reforms and improvements to our corporate governance and internal procedures. On January 31, 2025, the plaintiffs in the Hirani and Hanowski Actions filed a motion to relate their actions to the Pension Fund Action, which the Court approved on February 18, 2025. On March 7, 2025, the Court granted the parties’ stipulation to consolidate the Hirani and Hanowski Actions for all purposes into one action under the title In re Enphase Energy, Inc. 2025 Shareholder Derivative Litigation (the “Derivative II Action”). On May 8, 2025, the Court stayed the Derivative II Action pending resolution of all motion(s) to dismiss in the Pension Fund Action. On January 28, 2026, purported shareholder Ahmed Ibrahim filed a motion to intervene in the Derivative II Action. On February 25, 2026, Trustees Defendants and Plaintiff Hanowski filed responses to Ibrahim’s intervention motion. Ibrahim filed his reply on March 6, 2026. On March 12, 2026, proposed intervenors Edwin Isaac and Edna Martin filed a separate motion to intervene. On March 13, 2026, Hanowski filed an administrative motion seeking permission to file a sur-reply to Ibrahim’s reply brief. Ibrahim opposed the sur-reply motion on March 16, 2026. On March 26, 2026, Ibrahim and Trustees Defendants filed responses to the Isaac and Martin motion to intervene. The following day, the Court granted Hanowski’s motion for leave to file a sur-reply. On April 2, 2026, Isaac and Martin filed their reply in support of their motion to intervene. On April 9, 2026, the Court denied both motions to intervene, and the case remains stayed. On April 23, 2026, purported shareholder Terrence Collins filed a derivative lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware against our non-employee directors and certain of our executives captioned Collins v. Kothandaraman, et al., Case No. 2026-0519 (the “Collins Action”). The Collins Action alleges that the defendants Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 46 Table of Contents purportedly breached their fiduciary duties in connection with allowing the issuance of the statements challenged in the Securities Class Action, the Pension Fund Action, and the Tripathi Action, as well as in connection with purported sales of stock. The Collins Action seeks unspecified damages and other relief, including reforms and improvements to our corporate governance and internal procedures. We dispute the allegations in each of the above-referenced lawsuits and intend to defend the matters vigorously. The pending lawsuits and any other related lawsuits are subject to inherent uncertainties, and the actual defense and disposition costs will depend upon many unknown factors. We could be forced to expend significant resources in the defense of the pending lawsuits and any additional lawsuits, and we may not prevail. In addition, we may incur substantial legal fees and costs in connection with such lawsuits.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before investing in our securities, you should consider carefully the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Form 10-K, including the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A thereof. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” above. Our actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Any of the risks discussed in the Form 10-K, in other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other risks we have not anticipated or discussed, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Except as set forth below, there has been no material change to our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A in the Form 10‑K. Changes in the United States trade environment, including the imposition of import tariffs, have and could adversely affect the amount or timing of our revenue, results of operations or cash flows. Our business is dependent upon the availability of raw materials and components for assembly. During 2025, the United States imposed significant new tariffs on nearly all products and components imported into the United States and pursued a new approach to trade policy that included renegotiating or terminating pre-existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements, enacting sweeping new tariffs on all imports, and imposing additional “reciprocal” tariffs on targeted imports from specified countries. A subset of our products is sourced from China and India, and certain components necessary to manufacture our products in the United States, including our microinverters, batteries and related accessories, are imported from China, India, Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan, among other countries. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed by the U.S. under IEEPA were invalid. The U.S. Supreme Court did not address refunds or remedies but instead remanded the matter to the Court of International Trade to address remedies. In response, the President issued an executive order rescinding the IEEPA tariffs and directing agencies to take measures to cease collection of the tariffs. However, a presidential proclamation was issued imposing a temporary import surcharge under Section 122. The surcharge was initially set at 10% ad valorem on all imports, and subsequently increased to 15%, the statutory maximum, with certain exceptions for specified commodities (e.g., electronics, critical minerals) and United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement qualified products. The surcharge took effect on February 24, 2026, for a maximum period of 150 days. On May 7, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade held that the Section 122 proclamation was invalid on the basis that it did not satisfy the statutory requirements of the Trade Act of 1974. The government has appealed the ruling, and the Federal Circuit issued a temporary stay pending appeal. With the expiration of the Section 122 tariffs, on July 23, 2026, the Administration announced new tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on 60 trading partners as part of an investigation under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 (“Section 301”) that began on June 2, 2026. The tariffs apply to many of the countries from who we source materials and can include some products material to our business. The evolving legal status, and expiration of the Section 122 tariffs creates additional uncertainty regarding our tariff exposure and any potential recovery of Section 122 duties paid during the quarter. The ultimate impact of these newly enacted and potential future tariffs or other restrictions on international trade will depend on various factors, including the ultimate level of tariffs, the duration such tariffs remain in place, and how other countries respond to U.S. tariffs. Due to broad uncertainty regarding the timing, content and extent of any regulatory changes in the United States or abroad, we cannot predict the impact, if any, that these changes could have to our business, financial condition and results of operations. If the Section 122 tariffs are ultimately invalidated and not replaced, we may benefit from reduced tariff costs on imported components; however, any replacement tariffs imposed under Enphase Energy, Inc. | 2026 Form 10-Q | 47 Table of Contents alternative statutory authorities, such as Section 301 or Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 or Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, could result in tariff rates that are equal to or higher than the current Section 122 surcharge and could remain in effect for significantly longer periods. We have moved a significant portion of our manufacturing to the United States, while retaining limited contract manufacturing in China and India. However, certain components necessary for our products are still required to be imported from outside the United States. For example, LFP battery cells used in our storage products are still supplied solely by two vendors in China. Although we are in the process of searching for other vendors outside of China for future supplies, the expertise and industry for the LFP battery cell is primarily in China, and it will require significant effort to identify alternative, qualified suppliers with the right expertise to develop our battery cells. The resulting environment of retaliatory trade or other practices or additional trade restrictions or barriers, if implemented on a range of products or components that we source from outside the United States, could harm our ability to obtain necessary product components or to sell our products at prices customers are willing to pay, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and cash flows. Trade disputes, trade restrictions, tariffs and other geopolitical tensions between the United States and other countries may also exacerbate unfavorable macroeconomic conditions including inflationary pressures, foreign exchange volatility, financial market instability, and economic recessions or downturns, which may also negatively impact customer demand for our products or services, delay purchases or renewals, limit expansion opportunities with customers, limit our access to capital, or otherwise negatively impact our business and operations. Ongoing tariff, trade restrictions and macroeconomic uncertainty has and may continue to contribute to volatility in the price of our common stock.
