Why it matters: Storage revenue nearly tripled in Q2, helped by new capacity and strong PJM prices. The next report tests whether that growth lasts.
Watch forQ3 storage revenue grows at least 50% year over year, and storage gross margin stays above 40%.
Also watch forQ3 storage revenue grows less than 20% year over year, or storage gross margin falls below 25%.
Why it matters: Drilling is a key test of Ormat's EGS pilot with SLB. A delay or a clear field result will change how much progress the pilot shows.
Watch forOrmat confirms Desert Peak drilling began in Q4 2026, with a public update on pilot results or next steps.
Also watch forOrmat reports drilling did not begin in Q4 2026, or pauses the pilot after a technical or permit issue.
Why it matters: After raising its full-year outlook, Q3 results will show if growth keeps pace with the new ranges.
Supportive ifFull-year 2026 revenue is at least $1.15 billion and adjusted EBITDA is at least $630 million.
Worry ifOrmat cuts its raised ranges. Full-year revenue falls below $1.15 billion, or adjusted EBITDA falls below $630 million.
Why it matters: Q2 product margin fell to 9.7% due to Europe project costs and exchange rates. Management said margin would improve in the second half.
Supportive ifQ3 product gross margin is above 15%, compared with 9.7% in Q2.
Worry ifQ3 product gross margin stays at or below 9.7%, or management cites higher project costs again.

Why it matters: The 134 MW project needs Nevada PUC approval. Approval would clear a named step toward its planned late-2027 or early-2028 start.
Supportive ifNevada PUC approves the NV Energy PPA for the 67 MW solar and 67 MW / 268 MWh storage project.
Worry ifNevada PUC rejects the PPA, or Ormat reports that the project is canceled or delayed past early 2028.
