GENERAL
NOTE 1: GENERAL
 
  a.
SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries design, develop, and sell an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual photovoltaic (“PV”) module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. The Company’s products consist mainly of (i) power optimizers designed to maximize energy throughput from each and every module through constant tracking of Maximum Power Point individually per module, (ii) inverters which invert direct current (DC) from the PV module to alternating current (AC) including the Company’s Energy Hub inverter which supports, among other things, connection to a DC-coupled battery for full or partial home backup, and optional connection to the Company's smart EV charger, (iii) a remote cloud-based monitoring platform, that collects and processes information from the power optimizers and inverters to enable customers and system owners, to monitor and manage the solar PV system (iv) a residential storage and backup solution which includes a company designed and manufactured lithium-ion DC-coupled battery that is used to increase energy independence and maximize self-consumption for homeowners including a battery, and (v) additional smart energy management solutions.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries sell products worldwide through large distributors, electrical equipment wholesalers, as well as directly to large solar installers and engineering, procurement, and construction firms.
 
  b.
The Company has expanded its activity to other areas of smart energy technology organically and through acquisitions. The Company now offers a variety of energy solutions, which include lithium-ion cells, batteries, and energy storage systems (“Energy Storage”), full powertrain kits for electric vehicles, or EVs (“e-Mobility”), as well as automated machines for industrial use (“Automation Machines”).
 
On April 6, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Hark Systems Ltd. ("Hark"), a UK-based energy IoT company for the commercial and industrial ("C&I") sector, which operates under the newly established consulting segment (see note 2).
 
  c.
Basis of Presentation:
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The Company’s interim period results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.
 
The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2022, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2023, have been applied consistently in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
 
  d.
Use of estimates:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures in the accompanying notes. The duration, scope and effects of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, government and other third-party responses to it, and the related macroeconomic effects, including to the Company’s business and the business of the Company’s suppliers and customers are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. As a result, the Company’s accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to this evolving situation. Such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangibles, long-lived assets, inventories, incremental credit losses on receivables and available-for-sale marketable debt securities, or an increase in the Company’s insurance liabilities as of the time of a relevant measurement event.

 

  e.
Concentrations of supply risks:
 
The Company depends on two contract manufacturers and several limited or single source component suppliers. Reliance on these vendors makes the Company vulnerable to possible capacity constraints and reduced control over component availability, delivery schedules, manufacturing yields, and costs.
 
As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, two contract manufacturers collectively accounted for 45.4% and 34.3% of the Company’s total trade payables, net, respectively.
 
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company announced the opening of “Sella 2”, a two gigawatt-hour (GWh) Li-Ion battery cell manufacturing facility located in South Korea. Sella 2 began producing and shipping cells at the end of 2022 and is expected to reach full manufacturing capacity in early 2024. Sella 2 is the Company's second owned manufacturing facility following the establishment of Sella 1 in 2020. Sella 1 is the Company's manufacturing facility in the North of Israel that produces power optimizers and inverters for the Company's solar activities.
 
  f.
New accounting standards updates:
 
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company believes that the impact of recently issued or newly effective standards were not applicable to the Company, did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements or are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
