Welcome to the Sunrun fourth quarter 2025 earnings conference call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. A brief question and answer session will follow the formal presentation. If anyone should require operator assistance during the conference, please press star zero on your telephone keypad. As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. It is now my pleasure to introduce your host, Patrick Jobin, Investor Relations. Thank you, sir. You may begin. Thank you, Miriam. Before we begin, please note that certain remarks we will make on this call constitute forward-looking statements related to the expected future results of our company, including our 2026 financial outlook and other statements that are not historical in nature or predictive in nature, or depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, such as our expectations, estimates, predictions, strategies, beliefs, or other statements that may be considered forward-looking. Although we believe these statements reflect our best judgment based on factors currently known to us, actual results may differ materially and adversely. Please refer to the company's filings with the SEC for a more inclusive discussion of risks and other factors that may cause our actual results to differ from projections made in any forward-looking statements. Please also note these statements are being made as of today, and we disclaim any obligation to update or revise them. Please note, during this earnings call, we may refer to certain non-GAAP measures, including cash generation and aggregation costs, which are not measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are being presented because we believe they provide investors with means of evaluating and understanding how the company's management evaluates the company's operating performance. Reconciliation of these measures can be found in our earnings press release and other investor materials available on the company's investor relations website. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. On the call today are Mary Powell, Sunrun's CEO, Danny Abajian, Sunrun's CFO, and Paul Dickson, Sunrun's President and Chief Revenue Officer. Presentation is available on Sunrun's investor relations website, along with supplemental materials. An audio replay of today's call, along with a copy of today's prepared remarks and transcript, including Q&A, will be posted to Sunrun's investor relations website shortly after the call. Let me turn the call over to Mary. Thank you, Patrick, and thank you all for joining us today. Sunrun continues to deliver strong operating and financial results. Our disciplined growth strategy, focused on our role as a critical energy system player while creating healthy margins, is paying off. The heart of our strategy is providing a richer and more meaningful customer experience by providing generation and storage capabilities, and then utilizing those resources to create the nation's leading residential power producer, leveraging our assets as a distributed power plant. We are providing American families peace of mind with predictable, affordable, and reliable energy, which is particularly welcomed in an environment where utility costs are rising rapidly and the grid is proving time and again to be unreliable in the face of extreme weather and increased demand. We have built a base of incredibly valuable grid resources that are helping to improve our country's energy system and meet the growing energy capacity challenges. Just last year, we dispatched 425 MW to the grid, equivalent to the peaking capacity in some states. Our growth each year is equivalent to adding a moderate-sized utility to our fleet, in addition to dispatchable generation capabilities of 1.5 GWh added in 2025. In 2025, we demonstrated our value in the face of significant uncertainty surrounding passage of the 2025 budget bill. This process served as a powerful catalyst for us to help legislators and their constituents recognize that distributed storage plus solar is not just a preference, but of strategic importance to meet America's energy needs. We emerged in a stronger position, focused on higher value storage-first offerings and building upon our domestically focused supply chain. To that end, in 2025, we continued to prioritize growing our customer base in an optimized, disciplined way, focusing on product mix and the highest value routes to market and geographies. We increased our Storage Attachment Rates to 71% exiting the year, up 9 percentage points from the prior year. At the same time, we also remained focused on being the absolute best in the business on customer experience, while simultaneously unlocking additional cost efficiencies as we leveraged AI and streamlined operations. As shown on slide five, this margin-focused strategy resulted in the highest Subscriber Values we have ever reported and drove strong upfront unit margins, with upfront Net Subscriber Value exceeding $3,200 per subscriber addition in 2025. Sunrun reached an inflection point in 2025 in terms of our financial performance. We oriented our business to generate strong upfront returns and to structurally generate cash. In 2025, Sunrun delivered $377 million of cash generation and paid down approximately $150 million of parent level recourse debt. We expect to continue to build on this momentum and drive meaningful value to shareholders in 2026 and beyond. Turning to slide 6, I want to spend a minute on Sunrun's strategic priorities for 2026. We will continue to lead in our efforts to be the best in the energy business, delivering sophisticated energy offerings and a strong customer experience while building the nation's leading distributed power plant. We plan to expand our storage attachment rate on our path to being Americans' choice for greater energy, independence, and control. Over the course of the last few years, we have dramatically improved our vertically integrated Sunrun Direct business, achieving Net Promoter Scores that rival some top-tier brands. We have executed amazing pivots to make our products and sales force the best in navigating increasingly complex utility rate structures and selling an entirely different offering centered around dispatchable storage. We believe that we will deliver robust growth in 2026 at higher margins and stellar quality in Sunrun Direct business, which already represents over 2/3 of our volume. We expect high single-digit to low double-digit growth in our Sunrun Direct business this year. We recently decided to reduce our volume through affiliate channels, which we expect will lower affiliate volumes by over 40% in 2026, leading to slight declines in overall volumes. We made these changes because our direct business provides greater customer experience and operational control to manage regulatory and compliance complexity, resulting in stronger customer credit profiles, higher margins, and better strategic alignment with our long-term objectives. The increasing complexity of sales processes, utility rate structures, storage integration, distributed power plants, and ITC compliance requires ever-increasing standards of training for our employees on our best-in-class products and operations. Today, very few industry participants are able to execute in this landscape to our standards. We will continue to value and work with partners that meet our rigorous standards and further our strategic objectives. To put it simply, complexity, control, and end-to-end visibility add to Sunrun's competitive advantages. We will continue to expand our work as a distributed power plant, designing our approach by market with the best possible products and services for our customers, and generating additional value as our assets get leveraged as a grid resource. Our team launched innovative customer products that provide enhanced value and further differentiate Sunrun. In 2025, we launched Flex, which has now reached thousands of installs per quarter. In 2026, we will aim to further accelerate innovation, focusing on expanding our lead as the largest distributed power plant operator. As you can see on slide seven, our nation needs more power to meet the demands coming from the AI and data center revolution. Many of our top markets have already experienced exponential growth in retail electricity prices and face an uncertain future as it relates to affordable and reliable energy. By aggregating our growing fleet of dispatchable storage and home solar, Sunrun is building the next generation of power plants to deliver the critical energy our customers and the US grid urgently requires. We can scale these resources quickly, as opposed to traditional utility solutions that can take years or even decades to bring online. This fleet of storage provides important resiliency benefits to our customers. The value of this was recently highlighted yet again during Winter Storm Fir. As widespread grid outages swept across the US, Sunrun kept the power flowing for our storage customers, delivering uninterrupted energy for these households. Detailed on slide 8, over the course of 2025, our 237,000 storage customers faced over 650,000 unique outages. In many cases, customers had enough stored energy to power through outages that lasted days. We have already reached a sizable scale, with over 4 gigawatt hours of dispatchable energy. Over the last year, our customers participated in 18 active programs across the country that provided 425 megawatts of peak power capacity. During 2025, Sunrun generated tens of millions of dollars of revenue for dispatching energy onto the grid, and we expect to expand this in 2026 as we grow our battery base, increase customer participation, and diversify into new power plant programs. Our customers are also directly financially benefiting from participation in these programs. In Q4, Sunrun announced a partnership with NRG, pairing Sunrun's storage and solar offerings with optimized rate plans through NRG's retail electric provider. We believe that we will be a meaningful contributor to NRG's goal of creating a 1 gigawatt distributed power plant by 2035. Uptake by existing and new Sunrun customers has been strong, and our batteries under the program have already delivered energy back to the grid during multiple dispatch events. We look forward to scaling this program in a meaningful way in 2026. This is in addition to the programs we have already launched with other retail energy providers, such as Tesla, providing a more sophisticated solution for customers in Texas as we design products that integrate retail electricity plans with solar and storage subscriptions. Retail electricity providers are seeing the benefits they can derive from these partnerships, while customers receive better value. We expect to launch additional partnerships in 2026. Our priority is to deliver strong financial results. We believe that our margin-focused growth strategy will continue to produce meaningful Cash Generation. This is delivered through innovations in how we operate and how we finance our growth. We expect to lean even more into our AI and technology capabilities this year. At Sunrun, AI is foundational to how we are transforming the business to an energy generation and dispatch company.... in addition to unlocking further cost efficiencies and enhancing the customer experience. At the same time, we aim to continue to strengthen and diversify our capital sources to fund growth through new innovative structures with strategic partners. We have deployed various structures to accelerate investment in distributed energy resources. First, we are pleased to announce we evolved the asset sale structure we launched in Q3 into something even more strategic between both parties, forming a new joint venture partnership to acquire and finance residential storage and solar energy assets. This was the initial intent of the parties. The partnership not only provides efficient capital formation, it provides preferred returns for the infrastructure investor, while Sunrun retains a long-term share of project cash flows and maintains the customer relationship and cross-selling opportunities. The partnership also envisions accelerating distributed power plant development across the country. In Q4, we entered into a new partnership with Hannon Armstrong. This innovative structure is a first of a kind for residential storage and solar financing. We expect this will drive a more efficient and lower overall weighted average cost of project capital. Before handing it over to Danny, I want to take a moment to celebrate some of our people who truly embrace energy independence and the desire to connect customers to a more secure way to power their lives. I specifically want to call out our leading installation teams in Houston, Texas. Higher power prices and the prevalence of extreme weather events has highlighted our value proposition in Texas, where we give our customers peace of mind by offering them the ultimate in reliability and the ability to power the grid when needed. Our Houston sales and install teams have been exemplary in advancing this mission and are a critical piece in supporting 25% year-on-year growth in the Texas market. Further, they are executing at strong levels of efficiency with excellent customer satisfaction. Ricky and all the Houston installation team members, let's go Texas, and thank you! All right, now I'll turn the call over to Danny for the financial update and outlook. Thank you, Mary. The Sunrun team executed well in Q4, both operationally and in our financing activities. Subscriber additions were approximately 25,000 in Q4, bringing the full year subscriber additions to 108,000, approximately flat from the prior year. Compared to the prior year, we increased our storage attachment rate by 9 percentage points to 71%, allowing us to grow storage capacity installed by 26%. Average system size grew by 4%, leading to similar growth in solar capacity installed. This margin-focused, disciplined growth strategy allowed us to generate meaningful cash. In the fourth quarter, we increased sales of newly originated assets to the financing structure we launched in Q3 that result in upfront revenue. In the fourth quarter, approximately half of our subscriber additions were monetized through this vehicle, while the remaining half was monetized through our traditional on-balance sheet structures. This represents an increase from 10% of our mix being monetized through this arrangement in the third quarter. GAAP revenue, gross profit, and operating income were meaningfully higher in the period. Our reported non-GAAP value creation metrics were lower in Q4, as these metrics do not include future cash flows from these customers, even though we maintain a service relationship, rights to grid services, and ability to cross-sell and upsell these customers over time. The diversification of funding sources is prudent for our scale, carries improved and simpler GAAP results, and generates equal or better upfront cash on our originations. As Mary noted earlier, we have transitioned this asset sale relationship into a strategic joint venture. Going forward, we expect to maintain a share of long-term customer cash flows under the partnership structure, which will maximize value and have a less dilutive effect on our Subscriber Value and other value creation metrics. The GAAP accounting clarity and benefits will be maintained under this new partnership structure. We expect the mix of non-retained or partially retained subscribers to decline in Q1 and to continue to remain a part of our diversified funding mix in the quarters ahead. Turning to the unit level results for the quarter on slide 14. Subscriber Value was approximately $50,200, a 2% decrease compared to the prior year. We increased our storage attachment rate by 9 percentage points and benefited from a 42% weighted average ITC level, an increase of 3 percentage points from Q4 of last year. Subscriber Value reflects a 7.1 discount rate this period. These positive project attributes were offset by the dilution from the asset sale activity I discussed earlier. Raising costs increased 8% compared to the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to larger system sizes and a higher storage attachment rate, requiring more hardware and associated labor costs. This resulted in a 7% year-over-year increase in installation costs per subscriber. We experienced 4% higher sales and marketing costs per subscriber addition. G&A was elevated in Q4, primarily owing to financing transaction-related costs, along with less fixed cost absorption. These factors led to a $3,800 decrease in Net Subscriber Value year-over-year to approximately $9,100. Turning now to Aggregate results on slide 15. These results are the average unit margins multiplied by the number of units. Starting on the top line, Aggregate Subscriber Value was $1.3 billion in the fourth quarter, an 18% decrease from the prior year. Aggregate Creation Costs were $1 billion, which includes all CapEx and asset origination OpEx, including overhead expenses. Our Q4 Contracted Net Value Creation was $176 million. This reflects a net margin of approximately 14% of Aggregate Contracted Subscriber Value. This figure is lower than last year, primarily due to the shift toward asset sale financing mix. Slide 16 breaks down the unit level economics and aggregate economics on a contracted-only basis, along with the main underlying drivers. Turning now to Slide 17. For retained subscribers reflected on our consolidated balance sheet, we raise non-recourse capital against the value of the systems. This includes tax equity and asset-backed debt, along with receiving cash from subscribers opting for prepaid leases and from government and utilities under incentive programs. As discussed earlier, we now also receive proceeds from the full or partial sale of a portion of newly deployed systems, and we refer to the related subscribers as non-retained or partially retained subscribers. We estimate these upfront sources of cash, called aggregate upfront proceeds, will be approximately $1.1 billion for subscriber additions in Q4, presenting an advance rate of approximately 91% of the aggregate contracted subscriber value, an increase of 5 percentage points year-over-year. When we deduct our aggregate creation cost of $1 billion from the aggregate upfront proceeds, we are left with an expected upfront net value creation of approximately $69 million. This figure excludes any value from our equity position in the assets over time, including potential asset refinancing proceeds and cash flows from other sources such as grid services, repowering or renewals, or upside from flexible electricity consumption above the contracted minimum. Though upfront net value creation is different from cash generation due to working capital and other items, it is a strong indicator of cash generation over time. Proceeds realized from retained subscribers in the quarter were $829 million, with $542 million from tax equity, $214 million from non-recourse debt, and $74 million from customer prepayments and upfront incentives. Aggregate upfront proceeds differ from proceeds realized from retained subscribers due to the former being an estimate for all subscriber additions in the period, and the latter being the proceeds received only against retained subscriber additions that may also have occurred in a different period. Sunrun also recorded revenue of $569 million from the sale of non-retained or partially retained subscribers, which is not included in the realized proceeds figure. Cash generation was $187 million in Q4 and $377 million for the full year 2025. Turning now to slide 20 for a brief update on our capital markets activities. Sunrun's industry-leading performance as an originator and servicer of residential storage and solar continues to provide deep access to attractively priced capital and has enabled us to build a strong diversity of funding sources. During 2025, we added $2.7 billion in traditional and hybrid tax equity. We raised $2.8 billion in non-recourse project debt, we recorded revenue of $684 million from the sale of non-retained or partially retained subscribers. As of today, closed transactions and executed term sheets, inclusive of agreements related to non-retained or partially retained subscribers, provide us with expected tax equity capacity or equivalent to fund approximately 499 megawatts of projects for subscribers beyond what was deployed through the fourth quarter. Our transaction activity in the tax equity market increased considerably during the second half of last year, we have developed a strong pipeline of transactions which would secure the remainder of our 2026 needs with corporate ITC buyers and traditional tax equity investors engaging in their 2026 planning. We also have over $600 million unused commitments available in our non-recourse senior revolving warehouse loan to fund over 230 megawatts of projects for retained subscribers as of the end of Q4. A recent amendment to the warehouse loan extends its availability period through 2029 and maturity date to 2030, upsides this commitment by $70 million and incorporates a new component to the borrowing base that provides partial advances against expected future ITC proceeds. Our strong debt capital runway has allowed us to be selective in timing term out transactions. We did not go to the securitization market during the fourth quarter, following a very active Q3, at which Sunrun priced 3 transactions. The securitization market has shown favorable conditions so far this year. We expect to place several transactions in the market this year. As noted earlier, in Q4, Sunrun increased its mix of outright sales of newly originated assets, representing 51% of subscriber additions during the quarter. These sales are recognized as upfront revenue, the benefit to our GAAP financials was immediately felt during the quarter as Sunrun posted positive operating profit, net income, and cash flow from operations. In Q4, we also closed a new innovative joint venture with Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, or HASI. The partnership is expected to ultimately finance over 300 megawatts of capacity across more than 40,000 homes across the country. HASI will invest up to $500 million over an 18-month period into the joint venture, which is a structured equity investment that monetizes a portion of the long-term customer cash flows while enabling Sunrun to retain a significant long-term ownership position and greater flexibility in structuring an efficient capital stack. We anticipate this will allow aggregate proceeds that are equal to or better than our traditional financing arrangements. On the parent capital side, we continue to pay down recourse debt, paying down $81 million during the fourth quarter and $148 million during full year 2025. During the quarter, we amended our recourse working capital facility to extend the facility's maturity date by one year to March 2028. The amendment additionally provides for further reductions in commitments in line with our goal of continued reduction of parent recourse debt as we deliver significant Cash Generation. With this amendment and the full payoff of our 2026 convertible notes earlier this month, we have no recourse debt maturities until March 2028. Over the course of 2025, we also increased our unrestricted cash balance by $248 million and grew net earning assets by $1.8 billion. Turning now to our outlook on slide 22. Position to grow volume in our direct business by high single to low double digits in 2026, expecting Q1 to mark the low point, followed by strong sequential growth during the year. We are confident that our ability to execute through complexity in our vertically integrated model will enable this growth. At the same time, growing complexity of execution as examples, integrating storage, navigating evolving utility rate structures, operating distributed power plants, and complying with ITC rules means that very few companies in the affiliate universe today are able to meet our stringent requirements. As a result, we made a proactive decision to dramatically reduce affiliate partner volumes by over 40% in 2026, which will impact our results. In addition to these volume trends, budget bill and tariff uncertainty last year resulted in us reducing direct sales activity in certain routes and geographies in order to increase our mix toward higher unit margins, which cut volumes during the second half of 2025 and into early 2026. Now, with an even stronger base of unit margins and resolution of some of these uncertainties, we have expanded certain sales activities and expect strong sequential volume and margin growth through the year. For the full year 2025, we expect Aggregate Subscriber Value to be between $4.8 billion and $5.2 billion. We expect Contracted Net Value Creation to be in a range of $650 million-$1.05 billion. The year-over-year decline in these value creation metrics is driven by lower volume and the dilutive effects from a higher mix of assets sold to the infrastructure investor or financed through our new joint venture together. It is important to note, however, that we do not expect the higher asset sale or JV mix to dilute Upfront Net Subscriber Value and Cash Generation because this activity also drives our average Advance Rate higher. We expect the impact from asset sales to reduce under the joint venture structure and for year-over-year comparisons to improve during the second half of this year. We expect Cash Generation to be between $250 million-$450 million for the full year. In addition to the volume and mix factors I noted, we expect key drivers to include lower proceeds from ITC transfers due to lower prices and higher insurance costs and higher solar module prices, offset partially by continued operational efficiency improvements. Incremental ITC safe harboring investments are not included in our Cash Generation outlook. We are working to finalize plans to execute additional safe harbor investments prior to the early July deadline. This year's activity would augment the activities we have assumed last year to further extend our coverage through 2030, provide a buffer for more growth, and diversify our approaches and equipment used to maximize flexibility around system configurations when the equipment is utilized. We estimate cash allocation to these activities may be in the range of $50 million-$100 million. A figure we will update once our plans are final. For the first quarter, we expect Aggregate Subscriber Value to be approximately $850 million-$950 million. We expect Contracted Net Value Creation to be between $25 million and $125 million in Q1. Incremental to the factors I just mentioned, the expected decline is driven by adverse fixed cost absorption in what is typically the lowest volume quarter of the year. We expect Cash Generation to increase sequentially throughout the year, following our typical seasonal pattern and financing activity cadence. We expect Q1 to be positive, but timing for execution of project financing transactions scheduled for March will influence the Q1 outcome. We expect to repay over $100 million in our parent recourse debt in 2026 and to be below our target recourse leverage of 2 times Cash Generation. Over time, we will explore further capital allocation options to maximize shareholder value based on market conditions and our long-term outlook. Operator, let's open the line for questions. Thank you. We will now be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate that your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. We ask that analysts limit themselves to one question and a follow-up so that others have the opportunity to do so as well. One moment please while we poll for questions. Our first question comes from Brian Lee with Goldman Sachs. Please proceed with your question. Okay, everyone, good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions. You know, kudos on the Cash Generation here and, you know, the guidance for 2026. You know, you're implying basically a stable guidance range for Cash Gen as the range you started with in 2025. I know in the past you had kind of given us a bridge with Cash Gen drivers, you know, lower interest rates, higher ITC weighting, more storage, et cetera. I mean, it seems like the drivers are in place for Cash Gen to go higher. Maybe the offset there is less volume. Can you kind of speak to, you know, some of the moving pieces around Cash Gen maybe not having, you know, more upside off the range you started with in 25? Sure, Brian. Nice to talk to you. We still have the typical factors. The primary variables we've talked about in the past include interest rates, the ITC percentage, the storage attachment rate. I'll go through a few details particular to 2026 as you try to bridge the year-over-year comparison. We did talk a bit about volume on the call. Some factors in play there with modest growth in the Sunrun Direct side, contraction on the affiliate side. That has a net negative effect on volume that kind of bears into the comparison. I would say the other factors, you know, a little bit of, I would say, on a year-on-year comp, a little bit of overperformance in 25 relative to our expectation. That was, you know, small items that were favorable in timing to 2025. More largely speaking, we've taken a slightly lower view on potential ITC pricing in the market, you know, some supply and demand dynamics, you know, largely across the market, weighing down pricing. We've incorporated into the forecast. We're also seeing higher insurance costs as the insurance market is also dealing with the increase in amount of insurance volume. Equipment prices are also weighing as we continue to shift to domestic. I would say those are the primary factors that are impacting the year-over-year bridge. That's super helpful, Colin, I appreciate that. Just to follow up on this, the asset sales model. I know it's kind of, you know, it's new and we're all trying to get a handle on how to model this, but, you know, it jumped around a lot here the past two quarters. Sounds like you might have a bit more of a view on kind of the mix into 2026. Is there sort of an average level it should trend at quarter to quarter? You know, is that kind of 40,000 homes capacity under the HASI JV maybe indicative of the volume under that structure you'd be doing in 2026? There, there are a couple of structures. There's the asset sale that we talked about last quarter. That is now so that picked up considerably from 10% to about 50% from Q3 to Q4. That'll continue to move around, but I think, you know, generally expect a decline from a 50% level, but quarter to quarter, as has been typical in all tax equity funds, you'll see some fluctuation. Some periods will have, you know, fund recently closed with maybe more elevated allocation, and sometimes there'd be a different funding mix. Generally, we expect that activity now in the joint venture format to remain in our mix for the year, at a lower level from the more recent pace of 50%. Separate from that, we announced in early January the Q4 closing of the partnership with Hannon Armstrong. That is also in a joint venture format that is different and incremental to the mix to the other JV we just talked about. Both will be a meaningful part of our mix for the balance of the year. I would say just to layer onto that, you know, longer range, it is our intent to continue to utilize structures like that as part of the overall diversification of funding sources and evolving structures to gain and unlock more efficiency and capital costs. Our next question comes from Moses Sutton with BNP Paribas. Please proceed with your question. Thanks for taking my question, you know, congrats on the great end to 2025. On the retained versus the non-retained assets, just a little more on that. How should we think of the mix? Let's take it beyond Brian Lee's question, like if you're looking beyond 2026 and you're thinking strategically. You know, if tax credit monetization metrics get, I don't know, easier with retained Advance Rates maybe back to 88% or 90%, I assume you'd go back and do more retained. How should we think of that? Are you gonna disclose the available capacity you have in dollar terms for non-retained asset sales, like on a forward basis, the same way you talk about, you know, tax equity and, you know, availability and capacity for the forward quarters? Thanks for the help on this. Retained and non-retained, you know, we are, we are giving runway disclosure. I think when you look at the tax equity or tax credit capacity, that certainly includes both. Just to hit a little bit of that, you know, it's not, it's not broken out, but we will certainly involve a mix of both retained and non-retained. I'll just say, just to comment on, in terms of the asset sales, like the non-retained piece, the asset sales joint ventures that present with that sort of treatment as well, you know, we like having it be a part of our mix and as part of a broader mix that will still include traditional tax equity, hybrid tax equity, and accessing the tax credit transfer market in a very meaningful way. You know, the other benefits on transaction simplicity, right, involving full stack capital. The deconsolidation, at least partially leading to a better clarity of GAAP presentation, as well as improved results on GAAP dynamics. I think just to name a few benefits of that transaction, in terms of the asset sale. In terms of the other partnership with Annie Armstrong, that will still consolidate, that will still access tax credit transfers, that will still access the ABS market. That is an innovation relative to more traditional tax equity and hybrid structures, and that will also be part of the mix. Yeah, I'd say the mix is evolving, certainly, you know, there are more tools to access the capital markets in more efficient ways. As far as specific breakouts, you know, I don't think we'll be providing a longer range outlook of specific mix other than to say what I just said to Brian, which is, you know, 50% was the level we hit it to for. In terms of that asset sale transaction structure overall for the year, we expect that to come down. Very helpful. Thank you. I'll pass it on. Our next question comes from Ameet Thakkar with BMO Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question. Hi, thanks for taking our questions. Just on the Cash Gen outlook for the year for 2026, I think your press release talks about that it excludes some potential safe harbor investments. Did your Cash Gen kind of numbers for 2025 actually already net those out? If you do kind of move forward with those investments, can you just kind of give us an idea of the magnitude on how much that might and kind of impact the Cash Gen figure thereafter? Thank you. Yeah. We have it in a $50 million-$100 million range for the whole year. I'll just note a little bit more on the activity, just to have the texture. The 2026 activity will give us the ability to safe harbor up to 4 tax years that follow 2026, which gets us through the end of 2030. In terms of the extension of runway of safe harbor activity, we have done some to start the year. We expect to do more before the July deadline because we're in the process of finalizing those plans, some of which are quite advanced. We do want to complete the activity before we share a specific number, but right now, we have it in a range of $50 million-$100 million of cash allocation out of our cash jump in the year. How much was it in 2025, that impacted your, I guess, your actual cash gen from, the kind of, the safe harbor activity you engaged in, last year? Yeah. Yeah, the 2025 activity was capital. We, you know, we've said capital light. I don't think we've detailed the exact number. You know, 50 to 100, you know, more specific. You know, in relation to that, we'd say capital light in 2025. Our next question comes from Chris Dendrinos with RBC Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question. Yeah, thank you. I guess I wanted to just ask about the demand environment and how you're kind of seeing the, you know, TPO, non-TPO, or I guess maybe more of the non-TPO market play out. Is that, you know, turning into an opportunity for you all to take more customers? Then maybe just on the affiliate side of things, I mean, you know, previously, I guess they were a partner, but now would you consider them a bit more of a competitor? Is there an opportunity to take share there as well? Thanks. Yeah, as the 25D market wound down, I think there was some, you know, consideration that that volume would immediately flow to us. We've kind of articulated previously, the cohort of organizations that typically sold under the loan model have tried to migrate to the most simple sales processes and the highest paying partners. As we've been talking about more complex rate environments, ever-increasing complexity around compliance and the need for improved controls and fiscal responsibility, we've seen that that volume has largely migrated to other places. As we watch that play out, we anticipate seeing the same thing that we've seen play out time and time again over the last two years. The financing shops that attract volume by focusing more on simplicity of underwriting or lack of underwriting and excessive pay, typically don't last long, and those people eventually, we anticipate, will migrate, if they want to stay in the industry, to a place that's been investing heavily around controls, prudent financial processes, and deep training on complex rate environments, and a focus on evolving into an independent power producer, thoughtfully underwriting these distributed assets. That's it for me. Thank you. Our next question comes from Philip Shen with Roth Capital Partners. Please proceed with your question. Guys, thanks for taking my questions. As a follow-up to that last point, talking about the complexity with everything that's happening, you know, the FIOC rules or guidelines came out recently. Seems like that wasn't enough. We need more clarity on PFEs and FIEs and so forth. There was an article out from Bloomberg about how certain large tax equity investors, I think JP Morgan was named, may have paused some investments in tax equity. You said in your prepared remarks that, you know, compliance with ITC rules was important or part of, you know, the package of tax equity and so forth. just was wondering if you guys could give us some color on the challenges that you're seeing for resi solar out there because of the delayed release of the FEOC guidelines, then how you guys specifically are navigating it. Do you see risk that there could be even challenges for you guys if the FEOC rules take longer than expected to come out? So let's say it's after the midterms, for example, which is a possibility. Then this also impacts the transfer market. So I know you guys have these other structures, which are fantastic and unique, but was wondering if you could talk through these impacts from the delayed FEOC guidelines. Thanks. Well, nice to hear from you. This is Mary. I'll take it, and then pass it to Danny, to talk a little bit more on the market side. I mean, make no mistake, really, how we're seeing this is really, frankly, right now, playing to Sunrun's strength in the business. Like, Sunrun is this sophisticated, vertically integrated player that has end-to-end visibility, and, we have gotten, I think, really good at making complex work in a way for consumers that's very powerful, and then also really helps us as we think about building out our distributed power plants. You know, the initial guidance that we just got actually was, from a Sunrun perspective, exactly what we were expecting, and fit. You're right, it didn't provide, you know, very specific guidance on the, you know, for the, for financers, but the reality is everybody always knew there was gonna then be this next rulemaking process. Make no mistake, like, this first phase was exactly what we expected. It came out in a positive way for Sunrun, and yes, to your point, we are really pleased with the strategic partnerships we've developed, and how we've diversified our capital structure. Danny, why don't you take it a little bit more on the specifics there that he was also after? Sure. I'll start with the FIOC considerations, then I'll go into the dynamics in the tax equity and tax credit transfer market. On the FIOC, you know, we view it as incrementally helpful and also confirmatory to some of our expectations on what the rules and approaches would be under the material assistance portions as it relates to FIOC. What we did not get, as many who follow this know, is further clarity on prohibited foreign entity and foreign-influenced entity rules, which are the piece that's forthcoming, and that relates to where you started your question, which is some participants in the market awaiting more clear rules on entity-level considerations before they put more dollars into tax credits effectively. That has sidelined a few people. I would say going to the broader conditions in the tax credit, you know, overall tax equity space, the market was, you know, a bit of a mixed story last year. If you look at the, kind of the ultimate headline, the tax credit transfer space grew by, you know, in the magnitude of 50% year-over-year from 2024. There continues to be growth in the tax equity market. Some of the tax effects of the budget bill did ease corporate appetite in the second half of the year for tax credits. I would say, in the second half of the year, it was a tighter market in terms of supply-demand. Dollars continued to flow very adequately for us, but what we started to see, and led us to, expectations for this year, was a softening up of price expectations in that market, given the supply, demand fundamentals. You know, at a, you know, $50 billion-plus type scale, when you consider the tax credit transfer market and the traditional tax equity space, there is a lot of capital that was put to work, but also obviously a proliferation of the number of types of credits and demand. It kept that market, you know, kind of tightly balanced between supply-demand, with a little bit more slowness in the second half of the year. I would say at the same time, we were able to manage an acceleration in our activity in the second half of the year, and that culminated with, you know, we had a 499 megawatt kind of number in the script here, on our, on our tax equity monthly. You know, look, the net net is like lower pricing, some people not yet coming back to the market, but plenty of people having remained active in the market, sufficient for our needs. We expect that to continue. We've made good progress exiting last year, in securing more tax equity, and into this year in continuing to advance our pipeline, as we try to fill out the balance of this year. Great. Danny, Mary, thank you for that color. I know it's a complex topic and, also, dynamic. Shifting to the outlook for shareholder return, was wondering if you could give an update on, you know, the outlook for a potential buyback or, you know, the latest in terms of how you think about capital allocation. It likely hasn't changed much, but wanted to get a refresh on that. Thank you. Yeah, I think it's the same, you know, positioning, in terms of continuing to pay down parent debt. We said $100 million or more for this year, and with an expectation that that would get us below our overall leverage target that we've been managing to towards over the last several years. That kind of, in our mind, like, marks the completion of the deleveraging period. As far as beyond that, I think the, you know, same kind of expectation in terms of looking to maximize shareholder return with capital allocation. This year in particular, we're also real time going through that exercise we mentioned around finalizing the magnitude of our safe harboring activity, which is a very high returning long-term use of cash. Great. Thanks. Our next question comes from Colin Rusch with Oppenheimer. Please proceed with your question. Hi there. This is Andre Adams on for Colin. I was just hoping you could quantify on an apples-to-apples basis how much labor costs increased year-over-year? We had the install cost comparison, I'm just looking for that. I know I just said the number, we had it in the prepared remarks, but the install cost number up year-over-year, I believe it was 8%, but I just don't want to misquote that. We did have, you know, if you are thinking install labor, including that number but not detailed, is install labor and equipment taken together. We had sales and marketing costs also up 4% year-over-year, but against which we saw a higher storage attachment rate, you know, continue to drive up the top line as well, to manage two healthy margins. Great, thanks. The Creation Cost is the 8% number. That includes everything, just to get that right. Yep. all right. Appreciate it. Can you just speak on the DPP side, about whether utilities are looking to leverage, the asset base to, drive some grid stability outcomes in addition to kind of basic power availability, and how that might vary by geography? Yeah, depending on the market, we're seeing varied levels of activity, but overall massive increases in interest in our assets. When you think about, like, the next generation of power plant and access to power, it needs to happen quickly. The expansion and growth of AI data center energy consumption is growing rapidly and is pent up, a power plant solution that can be brought online quickly is critical. As utilities are realizing the quick deployment nature of our assets, there's growing interest in them. As we talked about in Mary's remarks, we talked about exciting programs with both NRG and Tesla in the Texas market, for example, where we're essentially pledging assets to those partners to be able to dispatch as needed, to be able to stabilize the grid and control costs for consumers. As we said, we have 18 different programs already. The success of the programs we've had has spurred, as Paul mentioned, a lot of interest. We're having, you know, very interesting talks with a number of partners across the country. Just to maybe conclude with that point, by the end of 2028, we've communicated we plan to have over 10 gigawatts of dispatchable capacity. That's three-quarters of a million batteries across the country that can be dispatched and have communicated $2,000 Net Subscriber Value per customer on those and are very excited about what we're building out. Our next question comes from Julien Dumoulin-Smith with Jefferies. Please proceed with your question. Hey, good afternoon. Thanks for the time. I appreciate it. Look, maybe just to follow up a little bit on the last one here and press a little bit further. As you think about the backdrop here, your comments about capital markets at large, how do you think about returning cash here? I just want to press you a little bit. I know at times there have been conversations about dividends and buybacks and things, but I just want to make sure hearing you very clear about where you stand in terms of being offensive or defensive in the current environment. Has your thinking evolved at all? obviously, kind of more of a flattish overall cash gen profile, and any comments you'd make as to what you need to see to kind of get more offensive, if you will, if you want to take, you know, take a foot forward. Yeah, it's $350 million Cash Generation at the midpoint. It's $100 million of use to pay down more debt. I think that dynamic, taken together by the end of the year, has us, you know, below the 2 times leverage target we had previously communicated, you know, several times. It's just a continuation of that. Charging towards that over the course of this year. Also there is an implied $250 million of excess once we've dealt with that. We've talked about using a portion of that remains on safe harbor. You know, it's getting us, you know, closer to the point where, you know, we're starting to look, well, what is the capital allocation beyond that? That is the established focus for this year. Then beyond that, you know, we start to introduce in our conversations the topic of shareholder return and go through the relative attractiveness of that. You know, we'd look at balance sheet strength, and we'd go through all the options. So far, at the moment, the guidance is the $100 million of debt pay down and then further use on safe harbor. That's where we are at the moment. Got it. If I can follow up just real quickly on the financing environment here. Is there a definitive moment that you're looking for that'll hopefully open up the tax equity markets more? Or do you not see this playing out that way? I mean, I know we were alluding to FIOC earlier. Is there a kind of a catalyst in as much as re-enabling these markets? Or is this just a general malaise or a widening out of spreads that will persist here? Just curious on how you'd frame it. Separately related to that, how do you think about should this environment persist, moving more structurally in other directions for capital market? I I mean, you guys have been very nimble over the years in adapting, and it seems like you are here today again. Just curious on how you would frame the backdrop and your latitudes. Yeah. In terms of, you know, going to the most core of the issue is, you know, corporate profitability and tax appetite is there, has been there and has been growing. In terms of any single event that served as a catalyst, we did get the FIOC guidance. Again, in my prior response, I did say, we view that as incrementally helpful and largely confirmatory with what we felt was our approach, and we were confident and this confirms it. Then in terms of other events, it could be further clarification on the entity level rules. That would, to the extent anybody's sidelined in the market, that would bring them back in from the sidelines, and they are a portion of the market that is already very large. I would say it's just more of a continuing to build pipeline, execute transactions and build runway. If you look at our runway, we have extended it very meaningfully from prior quarters. Again, it's not a single event, but you'll see it and notice it over time. Our next question comes from Maheep Mandloi with Mizuho. Please proceed with your question. Hey, can you guys hear me? Yep. Hello? Yep, we can hear you. Oh, perfect. Sorry about that. Quick clarification on the buyback. The leverage ratio you're targeting, is that still 2 times debt to Cash Generation as a metric here, or is that changing in this environment? 2 times. With this year's activity of $100 million, at least $100 million of pay down, we expect to get through that number, below that number. That's the current outlook on it. Yeah. just quick clarification, on the Creation Costs, I might have missed this earlier. The change between OpEx versus CapEx, I mean, OpEx seems more than 60% of the Cash Generation here. Is that structural, or should that reverse going forward over here? That you're noticing the effect there of that 40 percentage point increase in our mix from 10% to 50% from Q3 to Q4 going to asset sale activity on the financing mix, is also resulting in a full expensing of a greater degree of expensing of asset origination costs that have shifted from previously capitalized into expense. You're noticing that pickup, and that corresponds to the significant pickup in revenue from those asset sales. That's why you're seeing the pickup in margin, operating income, et cetera. Yeah. Okay. Thanks for the clarification. Our next question comes from Robert Zilfer with Raymond James. Please proceed with your question. Hi. Thanks for taking the question. What's the significance of changing the default rate measurement in the metric sensitivities? Yeah, I think just following, you know, trends we've been seeing and making sure we're capturing the whole range of sensitivity. You know, we, the proceeds amounts that we raise on our transactions, you know, do have default assumptions being made by capital providers. You know, just to capture the, you know, the evolving range as we've been seeing and to make sure everybody has the full coverage. You know, before we used to The other thing you'll notice in the numbers, it's the presentation thing. Previously we used to show it as cumulative, and now we're showing it as annual measures to give more clarity in terms of what you want to model. Okay. Understood. Thank you. I guess on your more seasoned securitizations, which bucket of default rate would they typically fall into? I'm not sure I follow the question. Where what are our default rates? Is that the. Exactly, yeah. What are your default rates relative to what you have in the metric sensitivities for your more seasoned securitizations? Yeah. I think it really depends on the asset performance, the vintages, the types. There is a bit of a spread. I think we've said, you know, cumulatively, you know, I don't know if we've put out the recent updates, but certainly on our deals, the rating agencies do look at it. We've seen about 50-75 basis points on an average. That's the annual figure. In the past again, we've used cumulative figures, so there could be a little bit of a difference in translation when you go back and look at what we've disclosed previously. On average, it's 50-75 basis points. Again, that could vary by FICO score, geography, product, et cetera. Okay. Very helpful. Thank you. All of our ratings agencies and the rating agencies take long-term assumptions when they're rating transactions. Generally, when they updated on our performance, they've been able to maintain, or in, you know, in limited case or two, upgrade our ratings. Understood. Thank you. We have reached the end of our question and answer session, which concludes today's teleconference. You may disconnect your lines at this time.
