Genie Energy Announces Third Quarter 2025 Results

Newark, NJ – November 3, 2025:   Genie Energy, Ltd. (NYSE: GNE), a leading retail energy and renewable energy solutions provider, today announced results for the third quarter of 2025. 

Michael Stein, Chief Executive Officer of Genie Energy, commented: 

"Genie Energy achieved another quarter of double-digit topline growth to attain record third quarter revenue.  The revenue increase was fueled by an increase in per meter electricity consumption, rising commodity prices, and RCE base growth at Genie Retail Energy (GRE).  However, the challenging market conditions that impacted GRE's second quarter results persisted and again weighed on our bottom-line.

"At GRE, we continued to prioritize acquisition of high consumption electric meters.  In the third quarter, we grew our electricity customer base to approximately 318,000 RCEs, representing a year-over-year increase of 5.4%.  While our gas book contracted, on a combined basis for both electricity and gas, we increased total RCEs 4.2% to 396,000 while total meters increased 0.8% to 402,000.  GRE’s third quarter Adjusted EBITDA¹ decreased from the year ago level as increasing commodity costs continued to pressure margins.

"At Genie Renewables (GREW), we should be just days away from turning on Genie Solar's Lansing community solar project, and we expect it to begin generating revenue in the fourth quarter.  In addition, we made good progress on the build-out of our Perry, NY array. For the remainder of Genie Solar's generation pipeline, we continue to evaluate potential paths forward in light of the changes in federal energy policy enacted earlier this year.  Meanwhile, our portfolio of operating solar projects is performing well.

"Diversegy, our energy advisory and brokerage business, continued its impressive revenue and bottom-line expansion for the third straight quarter, and we expect that trend will continue. GREW’s financial results were also significantly impacted by our investments in several exciting early-stage growth initiatives.

"During the third quarter, we continued to return value to our stockholders, repurchasing approximately 124,000 shares for $2.0 million and paying our regular quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share while further strengthening our balance sheet.

"Looking ahead, we expect that GRE’s margin environment will gradually become more favorable in the fourth quarter and into 2026.  For the full year 2025, we expect to achieve our annual guidance range of $40 million to $50 million in Adjusted EBITDA, albeit at the low end of the range."

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

(Unless otherwise noted, 3Q25 results are compared to 3Q24).

Segment Highlights

Genie Retail Energy (GRE)

GRE's 3Q25 revenue increased 25.1% to $132.4 million from $105.8 million in 3Q24 primarily reflecting increased consumption from customer base growth. Income from operations decreased 32.4% to $10.2 million from $15.0 million, and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 32.2% to $10.5 million from $15.5 million.  The decreases primarily reflect increased commodity costs absorbed by GRE compared to 3Q24 driven by increased wholesale commodity prices, and amplified by unseasonably hot weather in some service markets during the quarter, and by the impacts of a twelve-month, lower-margin municipal aggregation deal that will expire in 4Q25.

GRE Operational Metrics

Genie Renewables (GREW)

GREW's third quarter revenue decreased 2.7% to $6.0  million from $6.1  million in 3Q24, as continued strong growth at Diversegy was offset by Genie Solar's move away from commercial project development last year.  Diversegy, Genie's energy brokerage and advisory business, increased revenue by 35% year-over-year. GREW's loss from operations increased to $0.3 million from $0.2 million in 3Q24 reflecting increased investment in new business initiatives.

Following recent changes accelerating the phaseout of the federal investment tax credits for solar projects, Genie Solar has removed some early-stage projects from its pipeline, and has paused new project development.

Balance Sheet Highlights

As of September 30, 2025, Genie reported cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term restricted cash, and marketable equity securities of $206.6  million.

Total assets as of  September 30, 2025 were $394.1 million. Liabilities totaled $205.3 million, and working capital (current assets less current liabilities) totaled $113.3 million.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the Third Quarter of 2025

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), Genie Energy disclosed Adjusted EBITDA for GRE and on a consolidated basis, Non-GAAP Net Income Attributable to Genie Common Stockholders (Non-GAAP Net Income) and Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share Attributable to Genie Common Stockholders (Non-GAAP EPS). Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS are non-GAAP financial measures.

Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Genie’s measure of consolidated Adjusted EBITDA starts with income from operations and adds back depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation and deducts impairment of assets and equity in the net loss of equity method investees, net.

Genie's measures of Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS start with net income attributable to Genie Energy Ltd. Common Stockholders in accordance with GAAP and add captive insurance liability and the tax effect of this adjustment. These additions  are non-cash and/or non-routine items in the relevant periods.

Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, revenue, gross profit, income from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income, basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Genie’s measurement of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Management believes that Genie’s measure of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of Genie’s or GRE’s core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS, among other measures, as relevant indicators of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision-making.

Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS to evaluate operating performance in relation to Genie’s competitors. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, Genie Energy has historically reported Adjusted EBITDA and believes it is commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance. Therefore, the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting at this time.

Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS as well as the GAAP measures revenue, gross profit, and income from operations, as well as net income, on a consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to Genie's historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.

Although depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, they primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. Genie’s operating results exclusive of depreciation and amortization are therefore useful indicators of its current performance.

Stock-based compensation recognized by Genie Energy and other companies may not be comparable because of the various valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of types of awards that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from Genie’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results of Genie’s core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for Genie Energy for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees’ compensation that impacts their performance. 

Impairment of assets is a component of income (loss) from operations that is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The impairment of assets is primarily dictated by events and circumstances outside the control of management that trigger an impairment analysis. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of Genie's continuing operations. 

Captive insurance liability is a non-cash charge incurred by Genie's insurance operations. While there may be related charges in other periods, the magnitude of these changes can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of Genie's continuing operations. Captive insurance losses are excluded from Genie's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results of Genie’s core business with the results of other companies. 

Following are the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS on a consolidated basis to its most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to income from operations for Genie Energy on a consolidated basis as well as for GRE.
