ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. and PORTLAND, Tenn., Nov. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ARRAY Technologies (Nasdaq: ARRY) (“ARRAY”), a leading provider of structural balance-of-system (“SBOS”) solutions for utility-scale solar, and Shoals Technologies Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SHLS) (“Shoals”), a leading provider of electrical balance-of-system (“EBOS”) solutions for utility-scale solar and battery energy storage, today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement to combine in a stock-for-stock merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The transaction creates an integrated energy infrastructure platform that brings together complementary, market-leading solutions across foundations, trackers, fixed-tilt racking, electrical infrastructure, wire management and power delivery systems.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, ARRAY will be the legal acquirer in the transaction and will serve as the corporate parent of the combined company. Shoals’ shareholders will receive a fixed exchange ratio of 1.6931 ARRAY shares for each Shoals share they own. Immediately following the closing of the transaction, Shoals shareholders are expected to own approximately 65% of the combined company’s basic shares outstanding (64.5% on a fully diluted basis), with ARRAY shareholders expected to own the remaining approximately 35% of the combined company’s basic shares outstanding (35.5% on a fully diluted basis). Other than the Mandatory Redemptions, the transaction is not expected to require ARRAY to refinance or redeem any of its outstanding debt or preferred securities.

The combined company will serve solar and battery storage customers through a unified design package, coordinated purchasing and integrated warranty support across SBOS and EBOS solutions, while delivering increasing levels of integration over time designed to reduce installation costs, streamline project execution and lower long-term maintenance requirements.

“Today marks an important milestone for Shoals, ARRAY and the customers we serve. By bringing together two highly complementary businesses with experienced teams, we are creating an integrated platform with broader capabilities, deeper customer relationships and a stronger foundation for long-term growth. We believe the combined company will be positioned to better service customers, deliver more innovative and integrated solutions, realize meaningful synergies and pursue expansion opportunities across the solar value chain, data center markets and beyond,” said Brandon Moss, Chief Executive Officer of Shoals.

“This transaction represents a compelling opportunity to create meaningful value for customers of both ARRAY and Shoals by bringing together our complementary strengths. Although structural and electrical systems must operate seamlessly together in the field, they have historically been designed and sourced through separate channels. This combination changes that. Together, we expect to deliver a differentiated, technically integrated and interoperable platform that simplifies project execution, enhances project economics and accelerates innovation for customers,” said Kevin Hostetler, Chief Executive Officer of ARRAY.

Strategic and Financial Rationale

The combination of ARRAY and Shoals is expected to build a stronger, more diversified platform with greater scale, an enhanced global footprint, broader customer reach and significant financial and operational benefits to create enhanced shareholder value. The combined company is expected to:

  • Serve customers more effectively through a unified design package, coordinated purchasing and integrated warranty support across combined offerings. The combined company intends to offer customers enhanced flexibility and packaging choice across foundations, trackers, electrical infrastructure and wire management solutions, including the solar industry’s best performing ground screw, single-axis tracker, DC wiring solution and cable management hanger.
  • Enhance customer value by streamlining project execution, reducing installation costs, and lowering long-term maintenance requirements through increased product integration. SBOS and EBOS solutions are highly symbiotic across solar and battery storage projects. By bringing these complementary product categories together, the combined company expects to deliver more integrated solutions that reduce interface complexity, enhance energy yield and reliability, simplify installation and lower customers’ total cost of ownership.
  • Build a stronger innovation engine. Together, ARRAY and Shoals bring decades of technical expertise and operating experience across engineering, product innovation, project design and customer delivery spanning more than 250 GW of projects. This deeper technical foundation is expected to accelerate product development, enhance interoperability and support the creation of innovative, integrated solutions across solar, energy storage and adjacent power infrastructure markets.
  • Capture significant cost savings. The combined company expects to realize significant savings in overhead and other expenses. Year-one cost synergies are expected to deliver approximately $20 million of incremental, run-rate Adjusted EBITDA.
  • Capitalize on cross-selling opportunities to drive incremental revenue growth. Only approximately 20% of projects served by ARRAY and Shoals in 2025 and 20261 utilized products from both companies, underscoring a significant cross-selling opportunity. The combined company intends to capture this opportunity by leveraging each company’s customer relationships, complementary product offerings and geographic strengths to accelerate broader adoption across the expanded customer base. Year-one cross-selling synergies are expected to generate approximately $15 million of incremental run-rate Adjusted EBITDA.
  • Strengthen its cash generation profile. The combined company expects to benefit from Shoals’ approximately $1.6 billion of tax amortization and $237 million of Net Operating Losses2, which are anticipated to reduce taxable income and limit the cash tax obligations of the combined company for the next several years. In addition, the Mandatory Redemptions of Preferred Stock are expected to reduce cash distributions by nearly $100 million over the next five years.3
  • Draw upon its larger scale and improved financial flexibility to enhance shareholder value. The combined company is expected to benefit from greater scale, a more diversified revenue base and a stronger balance sheet. These attributes are expected to enhance financial flexibility, enabling the company to invest in organic and inorganic growth opportunities and pursue disciplined expansion into new product categories over time. Pro forma for the transaction, the combined company expects net debt to Adjusted EBITDA to be 2.6x as of year-end 2026 and estimated to be less than 2x by year-end 2027.

Leadership, Governance and Name

Upon completion of the transaction, Brandon Moss, Shoals’ current Chief Executive Officer, will serve as Chief Executive Officer of the combined company. Kevin Hostetler, ARRAY’s current Chief Executive Officer, will serve as Special Advisor. Brad Forth, current Chairman of the Board of Directors of both ARRAY and Shoals, will serve as Chairman of the Board of the combined company. The combined company’s Board of Directors is expected to consist of ten directors, comprising four independent directors from each of the current Shoals and ARRAY Boards of Directors, as well as Brad Forth and Brandon Moss.

“Having had the privilege of serving as Chairman of both ARRAY and Shoals, I have seen firsthand the complementary products, talented teams and shared commitment to customers offered by both companies,” said Brad Forth, Chairman of the Board of Directors of ARRAY and Shoals. “Together, ARRAY and Shoals are well positioned to deliver enhanced value to customers, shareholders and employees. I also want to thank Kevin for his leadership and important contributions to ARRAY, as well as his valuable insights as he transitions to a Special Advisor role. I look forward to continuing to work with Brandon, who brings proven leadership, deep industry expertise and strategic vision to lead the combined company in this next phase of growth.”

The combined company intends to announce a new corporate name and ticker symbol in the coming months to reflect the expanded scope of its products, services and strategic opportunities.

ARRAY Preferred Stock and Balance Sheet

In connection with the merger, ARRAY has entered into a letter agreement with the holders of its Preferred Stock. The letter agreement provides for, among other things:

  • A commitment to pay to redeem (i) $161.3 million of Preferred Stock at a price equal to 93% of the liquidation preference, with such redemption to be completed within 90 days following the closing date of the merger (the “Initial Redemption”), and (ii) an additional $156.3 million of Preferred Stock at a price equal to 96% of the liquidation preference, with such redemption to be completed in up to three installments of not less than $52 million each to occur by each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the Initial Redemption;
  • An option to redeem the balance of the Preferred Stock in excess of the Mandatory Redemptions at a price equal to 96% of the liquidation preference, provided that such redemption occurs within 48 months of the closing date of the merger, with redemptions for any amounts remaining thereafter to be at the price contemplated by the original Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations, which is 100% of the liquidation preference; and
  • A reduction in the minimum amount of each redemption from $200 million to $50 million.

Following the completion of the Initial Redemption, the combined company expects the liquidation preference of the outstanding Preferred Stock to be approximately $348.7 million with 2027 dividends of approximately $25 million, assuming the Initial Redemption is completed by March 31, 2027.

ARRAY and Shoals believe these actions will simplify the combined company’s capital structure, increase free cash flow by reducing future preferred stock distributions, and support the long-term strategic objectives of the combined business.

Preliminary, Indicative Financial Outlook

Based on backlog, current business conditions and other factors, the combined company is estimated to generate, on a preliminary, indicative basis, pro forma full-year 2027 revenues in the range of $2.2 billion to $2.4 billion and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $410 million to $480 million, including expected year-one synergies.4 The combined company does not expect to pay a material amount of cash taxes in 2027.

The combined company expects to deliver more than $100 million of annual Adjusted EBITDA synergies within three years following the closing, driven by corporate overhead efficiencies, selling expense optimization, procurement benefits, operational improvements and increased revenue.

Estimated pro forma balance sheet and other financial items for the combined company as of December 31, 2026 include:

Financial Item Estimated at December 31, 2026
Basic shares outstanding (mm) 439.5
Diluted shares outstanding (mm) 442.1
Net debt ($mm) $873.3
Preferred Stock Liquidation Preference ($mm)5 $348.7

Following completion of the merger, the combined company intends to maintain a disciplined approach to capital allocation, prioritizing investment in organic growth and innovation, reducing leverage and enhancing financial flexibility, and selectively pursuing strategic acquisitions that complement its capabilities and support long-term shareholder value creation.

The companies expect to provide additional financial details in the proxy materials to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with the transaction by year-end.

Timing and Approvals

The transaction has been unanimously approved by members of the Boards of Directors of both ARRAY and Shoals who voted on the deal. Brad Forth did not participate in the Boards’ consideration of or vote on the transaction.

The companies expect the transaction to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to approval by shareholders of both ARRAY and Shoals, the receipt of requisite regulatory approvals, authorization for the combined company’s shares to be listed on Nasdaq and other customary closing conditions.

For more information regarding the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the reconciliations in Shoals’ and ARRAY’s SEC filings.
