Raising full year guidance range

The results of Enlight’s operations during the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 have been excellent. Revenues and EBITDA have been higher than our expectations after achieving sound operational performance. As a result, we are raising our full year guidance ranges for 2024. We now expect 2024 revenues in the range of $355-$370m from $345-$360m previously, and adjusted EBITDA1 in the range of $255-$270m from $245-$260m previously. This represents an increase of $10m from previous midpoints of both revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, and further demonstrates our confidence in the positive trends and strong growth in all areas of our business.
