Acceptances
We use acceptances as a key operating metric to measure the volume of our completed Energy Server installation activity from period to period. Acceptance typically occurs upon transfer of control to our customers, which depending on the contract terms is when the system is shipped and delivered to our customers, when the system is shipped and delivered and is physically ready for startup and commissioning, or when the system is shipped and delivered and is turned on and producing power.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. Bloom urges you to review the reconciliations of its non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. With respect to Bloom’s expectations regarding its 2023 Outlook, Bloom is not able to provide a quantitative reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin measures to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation expense. Material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results and, as such, we believe that any reconciliation provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

Use of non-GAAP financial measures
To supplement Bloom Energy condensed consolidated financial statement information presented on GAAP basis, Bloom Energy provides financial measures including non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit (loss), (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit (loss) margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP basic, diluted net earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA. Bloom Energy also provides forecasts of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not computed in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP in the United States.
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross profit (loss) is gross profit (loss).
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross margin is gross margin.
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations) is operating profit (loss) (earnings from operations).
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating margin is operating margin.
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP net earnings is net earnings.
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share is diluted net earnings per share.
- The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net earnings.
Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP information are included in the tables above or elsewhere in the materials accompanying this news release.
Use and economic substance of non-GAAP financial measures used by Bloom Energy
Non-GAAP gross profit (loss) and non-GAAP gross margin are defined to exclude charges relating to stock-based compensation expense and PPA IV repowering related impairment charge. Non-GAAP operating profit (loss) (non-GAAP earnings from operations) and non-GAAP operating margin are defined to exclude any charges relating to stock-based compensation expense, PPA IV repowering related impairment charge and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Non-GAAP net earnings and non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share consist of net earnings or diluted net earnings per share excluding stock-based compensation, loss for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, PPA IV repowering related impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt related to PPA IV repowering and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation, loss for non-controlling interest, loss (gain) on derivatives liabilities, PPA IV repowering related impairment charge, loss on extinguishment of debt related to PPA IV repowering.
Bloom Energy management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for purposes of evaluating Bloom Energy’s historical and prospective financial performance, as well as Bloom Energy’s performance relative to its competitors.
