Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2024 revenue ÷ FY2023 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

### Peer percentile fingerprint

| Ratio | AMRC | Peer median | Percentile | N |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net margin | 3.2% | 2.4% | 57 | 8 |
| Operating margin | 6.1% | 6.9% | 43 | 8 |

| ROA | 1.4% | 1.0% | 57 | 8 |
| Current ratio | 1.46 | 1.52 | 43 | 8 |

Percentile = share of the N covered peers reporting that ratio whose value is lower (ties counted half); computed among grepcent-covered companies in SIC industry 1700 Construction - Special Trade Contractors, not the whole market. A higher percentile means a higher value of the ratio, not a better company. Ratios with fewer than 8 reporting peers are omitted. Latest reported values per company; fiscal periods may differ. Descriptive arithmetic - not a score, rating, or ranking.

These initiatives have strengthened the Company's capabilities, expanded its infrastructure solutions portfolio, and enhanced its ability to serve customers across a broader geographic footprint.

Key Factors and Trends

Regulatory Environment and Federal Policies

Federal policies play an important role in our business and we benefit from regulatory measures and various clean energy tax incentives, including those implemented under the Inflation Reduction Act (the “IRA”). These credits were modified by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBB”), which was enacted on July 4, 2025.

31

Table of Contents

Among other provisions, the OBBB introduces new timing requirements for solar-only projects seeking eligibility for Investment Tax Credits (the “ITC”) under Section 48 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). To qualify, such projects must commence construction by July 4, 2026, and be placed in service by December 31, 2027. The OBBB also phases down ITCs for energy storage projects beginning in 2034, with a complete phase-out by 2036. Additionally, it increases the requirements for the domestic content bonus credit and introduces new compliance obligations under the Foreign Entity of Concern (“FEOC”) provisions for solar and energy storage projects beginning construction in 2026.

These legislative and regulatory developments may adversely impact our eligibility for certain tax credits, the attractiveness of our solar and energy storage system offerings, and 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.

See “Our business depends in part on federal, state, provincial and local government support for energy efficiency and renewable energy, and a decline in such support or the imposition of additional taxes, tariffs, duties or other assessments on renewable energy or the equipment necessary to generate or deliver it, could harm our business” and “Compliance with environmental laws could adversely affect our operating results” in Item 1A, Risk Factors in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Neogenyx Fuels LLC Joint Venture Transaction

On May 4, 2026, we entered into a contribution and equity purchase agreement with an affiliate of HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital and an affiliate thereof (“HASI”) to combine our biogas business into a new joint venture, Neogenyx Fuels LLC. At closing on May 12, 2026, we contributed our existing biogas operations and related assets and liabilities in exchange for a 70% equity interest, while HASI acquired a 30% interest through a $400 million cash commitment. Of this amount, (i) $233,800 was paid to Ameresco at closing, of which $57,942, was used to pay existing project-level debt and approximately $5,371 was used to pay fees, and (ii) a portion of the remaining $166,200 was contributed to the joint venture at closing and the remainder thereof will be contributed over a period of time to fund the joint venture.

Following the closing, we are consolidating the joint venture into our financial statements.

Supply Chain Disruptions and Other Global Factors

We continue to monitor the impact of global economic conditions on our operations, financial results, and liquidity, such as the impact of tariffs, supply chain challenges, geopolitical instability and conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, evolving relations between the U.S. and China, and other geopolitical tensions. These conflicts together with import duties, tariffs and other import restrictions, including the Uyghur Forced Labor Protection Act, have restricted the global supply of, and raised prices for, supplies needed for our business. In addition, tariffs and trade restrictions that have been introduced and may be introduced as part of the 'America First' trade policy may further increase the cost of components needed for our offerings and may strain trade relations, create inflationary pressures and cause additional supply chain disruptions. The impact to our future operations and results of operations as a result of these global trends remains uncertain and the challenges we face, including increases in costs for logistics and supply chains, intermittent supplier delays, and shortages of certain components needed for our business, such as electrical equipment, steel and aluminum as well as BESS equipment or components required for our projects and clean energy solutions may continue or become more pronounced.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we continued to face supply chain disruptions and varying levels of inflation driven by macroeconomic conditions. This caused some delays in the timely delivery of material to customer sites and in the timely completion of certain projects and increased shipping, transportation, component and labor costs, negatively impacting our results of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2026. We expect these challenges will persist and they may intensify. We continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions to remain flexible and to optimize and evolve our business as appropriate to address the challenges presented from these conditions.

We believe the increasing demand for electricity, rising oil and utility rates, and growing grid instability, are driving demand for our energy infrastructure and other solutions. However, this increased demand may increase the competition we face and we may also face an increased risk in completing larger more complex projects.

Climate Change and Effects of Seasonality

Global emphasis on climate change and reducing carbon emissions has created opportunities for our industry. Sustainability has been at the forefront of our business since its inception, and we are committed to staying at the leading edge of innovation taking place in the energy sector. We believe the next decade will be marked by dramatic changes in the power infrastructure with resources shifting to more distributed assets, storage, and microgrids to increase overall reliability and resiliency.

Climate change also brings risks, as the impacts have caused us to experience more frequent and severe weather interferences, and this trend is expected to continue. We are subject to seasonal fluctuations and construction cycles, particularly in climates that experience colder weather during the winter months, such as the northern United States and Canada, and climates that experience extreme weather events, such as wildfires, storms or flooding, hurricanes, or at educational institutions, where large projects are typically carried out during summer months when their facilities are unoccupied. In addition, government customers, many of which have fiscal years that do not coinc

Overview

Ameresco is a leading energy infrastructure solutions provider dedicated to helping customers navigate the energy transition. Our comprehensive portfolio includes implementing smart energy efficiency solutions, upgrading aging infrastructure, and developing, constructing, and operating distributed energy resources.

Drawing from decades of experience, Ameresco reduces energy use and delivers diversified generation solutions to Federal, state and local governments, utilities, educational and healthcare institutions, housing authorities, and commercial and industrial customers.

We provide solutions primarily throughout North America and Europe, and our revenues are derived principally from energy efficiency projects, which entail the design, engineering, and installation of equipment and other measures that incorporate a range of innovative technology and techniques to improve the efficiency and control the operation of a facility’s energy infrastructure; this can include designing and constructing a central plant or cogeneration system for a customer providing power, heat and/or cooling to a building, or other small-scale plant that produces electricity, gas, heat or cooling from renewable sources of energy. We also derive revenue from long-term O&M contracts, energy supply contracts for renewable energy operating assets that we own, integrated-PV, and consulting and enterprise energy management services.

In addition to organic growth, strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses and assets, and joint venture arrangements have been an important part of our growth enabling us to broaden our service offerings and expand our geographical reach.

From October 1, 2025 to November 12, 2025, the U.S. government was shut down due to the failure of the U.S. Congress to take action to maintain funding at existing levels, for the U.S. government’s fiscal year. While we did not experience a notable slowdown in our government work even with the shutdown, any future government shutdown could delay our ability to convert project awards into contracts and as such could have an adverse impact on our financial results. The government shutdown has also delayed the government providing guidance regarding the “beginning of construction” criteria applicable to clean energy projects and final FEOC restrictions under the OBBB Act.

See “Our business depends in part on federal, state, provincial and local government support or the imposition of additional taxes, tariffs, duties, or other assessments on renewable energy or the equipment necessary to generate or deliver it, for energy efficiency and renewable energy, and a decline in such support could harm our business” and “Compliance with environmental laws could adversely affect our operating results” in Item 1A, Risk Factors.

restrictions that have been introduced any may be introduced as part of the 'America First' trade policy may further increase the cost of components needed for our offerings and may strain trade relations, create inflationary pressures and cause additional supply chain disruptions. The impact to our future operations and results of operations as a result of these global trends remains uncertain and the challenges we face, including increases in costs for logistics and supply chains, intermittent supplier delays, and shortages of certain components needed for our business, such as electrical equipment, steel and aluminum as well as BESS equipment or components required for our projects and clean energy solutions may continue or become more pronounced.

These tariffs, restrictions, and strained trade relations may affect our ability to source materials and products, potentially leading to increased costs and operational challenges and decreased demand for or offerings. We are closely monitoring the regulatory environment and actions of the current administrations that could impact our business.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we were impacted by supply chain disruptions and varying levels of inflation, as a result macroeconomic conditions. This caused some delays in the timely delivery of material to customer sites and in the timely completion of certain projects and increased shipping, transportation, component and labor costs, negatively impacting our results of operations during the year ended December 31, 2025. We expect these challenges will persist and they may intensify. We continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions to remain flexible and to optimize and evolve our business as appropriate to address the challenges presented from these conditions.

We believe the increasing demand for electricity, rising utility rates, and growing grid instability, are driving demand for our energy infrastructure and other solutions. However, this increased demand may increase the competition we face and we may also face an increased risk in completing larger more complex projects.

Climate Change and Effects of Seasonality

Global emphasis on climate change and reducing carbon emissions has created opportunities for our industry. Sustainability has been at the forefront of our business since its inception, and we are committed to staying at the leading edge of innovation taking place in the energy sector. We believe the next decade will be marked by dramatic changes in the power infrastructure with resources shifting to more distributed assets, storage, and microgrids to increase overall reliability and resiliency.

Climate change also brings risks, as the impacts have caused us to experience more frequent and severe weather interferences, and this trend is expected to continue. We are subject to seasonal fluctuations and construction cycles, particularly in climates that experience colder weather during the winter months, such as the northern United States and Canada, and climates that experience extreme weather events, such as wildfires, storms or flooding, hurricanes, or at educational institutions, where large projects are typically carried out during summer months when their facilities are unoccupied. In addition, government customers, many of which have fiscal years that do not coincide with ours, typically follow annual procurement cycles and appropriate funds on a fiscal-year basis even though contract performance may take more than one year. Further, government contracting cycles can be affected by the timing of, and delays in, the legislative process related to government programs and incentives that help drive demand for energy efficiency and renewable energy projects. As a result, our revenues and operating income in the third and fourth quarter are typically higher, and our revenues and operating income in the first quarter are typically lower, than in other quarters of the year, however, this may become harder to predict with the potential effects of climate change. As a result of such fluctuations, we may occasionally experience declines in revenues or earnings as compared to the immediately preceding quarter, and comparisons of our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful.

Our annual and quarterly financial results are also subject to significant fluctuations as a result of other factors, many of which are outside our control. See “Our business is affected by seasonal trends and construction cycles, and these trends and cycles could have an adverse effect on our operating results” and “Extreme weather events and other natural disasters, particularly those exacerbated by climate change, could materially affect our ability to complete our projects and develop our assets” in Item 1A, Risk Factors.

The Southern California Edison (“SCE”) Agreement

In October 2021, we entered into a contract with SCE to design and build three grid scale BESS at three sites near existing substation parcels throughout SCE’s service territory in California with an aggregate capacity of 537.5 MW (“the SCE Agreement”). The engineering, procurement and construction price is approximately $892.0 million, in the aggregate, including two years of O&M revenues, subject to customary potential adjustments for changes in the work. As previously disclosed, due to supply chain delays, weather and other events, we were unable to complete the projects by August 1, 2022 (the “Guaranteed Completion Date”). On August 30 2024, we reached an agreement with SCE on the substantial completion of two out of three battery energy storage system projects. We received approximately $110 million on September 5, 2024 as milestone payments, reflecting both an offset of liquidated damages which are still in dispute and $3 million that SCE withheld for additional work SCE required. Upon final acceptance of these two projects, we will invoice SCE for the remaining final acceptance milestone
