The second quarter results include results from NWL, Inc. beginning as of the acquisition date, August 1, 2024. Revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $54.5 million compared with $34.0 million for the same period of fiscal 2023. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by the acquisition of NWL, Inc., increased shipments of new energy power systems and electrical control system shipments, versus the year ago period. AMSC's net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $4.9 million, or $0.13 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million, or $0.09 per share, for the same period of fiscal 2023. The Company's non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $10.0 million, or $0.27 per share, compared with a non-GAAP net income of less than $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share, in the same period of fiscal 2023. Please refer to the financial table below for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash on September 30, 2024, totaled $74.8 million, compared with $95.5 million at June 30, 2024. "AMSC delivered fiscal second quarter net income of nearly $5 million and grew revenue by 60% when compared to the same period last year,” said Daniel P. McGahn, Chairman, President and CEO, AMSC. “During the second quarter of fiscal 2024 we booked nearly $60 million of new orders, with new energy power systems orders coming in stronger than previously demonstrated. We ended the quarter with over $200 million in 12-month backlog and over $300 million in total backlog. We are very excited for the second half of the fiscal year and remain focused on our execution as well as improving the resiliency of the power grid."

The Company believes non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share assist management and investors in comparing the Company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding these non-cash, non-recurring or other charges that it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. Actual GAAP and non-GAAP net loss for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2024, including the above adjustments, may differ materially from those forecasted in the table above. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measure included in this release, however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net loss is set forth in the table above.
