Company to Host Q4 and Full Fiscal Year 2026 Investor Call Thursday, June 4, at 10 a.m. ET
Previous“Our six consecutive quarters of positive adjusted EBITDA are testimony to disciplined cost containment, our robust proprietary supply chain and organic…”MANITOWOC, Wisc., May 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orion Energy Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: OESX) (Orion Lighting), a provider of energy-efficient LED lighting, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations and maintenance services solutions, today announced preliminary unaudited expectations for Fiscal Year 2026 of $86 million in revenue and adjusted EBITDA of at least $2 million.
The Company also reiterated expectations for Fiscal Year 2027, which began April 1, of between $95 million and $97 million in revenue and positive adjusted EBITDA.
Orion said that its performance expectations continue to improve because of continuing growth in its backlog, which totaled $30 million on March 31, 2026; and ongoing increases in orders by enterprise customers; successful cost-structure improvements; and Orion’s gains in its marketplace.
“We are demonstrably on a profitable growth path,” said CEO Sally Washlow, who arrived at Orion about 13 months ago. “Our six consecutive quarters of positive adjusted EBITDA are testimony to disciplined cost containment, our robust proprietary supply chain and organic growth from existing and new enterprise customers.”
Ms. Washlow particularly cited expansion of deployments within existing large customers in the automotive, retail and public sectors, whether in deployments of LED lighting, maintenance, electrical Infrastructure or EV charging infrastructure. Orion’s recently awarded project in Battery Energy Storage Systems and Electrical Contracting are also contributing to the Company’s growth, Ms. Washlow said.
Orion is providing adjusted EBITDA guidance only on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, the amounts of which, based on historical experience, could be significant. For additional information regarding Orion’s non-GAAP measure, see the related explanation presented under “Non-GAAP Measures.”

Non-GAAP Measures
Orion uses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs, deferred financing costs, restructuring and severance costs, asset impairment and, earnout expenses) is not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Orion has provided guidance for this non-GAAP measure to help investors better understand its core operating performance, enhance comparisons of core operating performance from period to period, and allow better comparisons of operating performance to its competitors. Among other things, management uses this non-GAAP measure to evaluate the performance of the business and believes this measurement enables it to make better period-to-period evaluations of the financial performance of core business operations. The non-GAAP measurement is intended only as a supplement to the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and investors should consider this non-GAAP measurement in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, the measurement of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
