'Solar Alliance's main activity in Q1 2025, was the build-out of a large solar energy project for major repeat customer located in Kentucky. Due to unusually severe weather in Kentucky, which included widespread flooding, power outages, and tornadoes throughout the state, the project experienced delays in the quarter.

'As the severe weather setbacks subside, the company is coordinating closely with our client and our partners to expedite delivery of the project,' said CEO Brian Timmons. 'This contract is expected to be concluded in the second quarter of 2025.'
'Solar Alliance continues to see strong demand for commercial solar projects, and we remain focused on these larger projects, and community solar projects to generate meaningful growth. In addition to executing on larger projects, to the Company continues to service a steady flow of renewable energy projects for small and medium-sized businesses in rural communities. Looking ahead, we continue to target full-year profitability for 2025 as we focus on opportunities in the Southeast U.S commercial solar sector,' concluded Timmons.

Key business highlights and outlook
The Company continues to target larger customers for solar system sales and installations, specifically for utility and commercial customers. The Company's business development activity is now engaged in assessing specific projects of a scale up to 5MWs. The board believes the Company has a competitive advantage and can offer a compelling proposition in this segment of the market. In this regard, the Company's track record and engagement with local power companies and progressive, high-quality corporate customers evidences its capacity to successfully undertake solar projects in the multi-megawatt range.
While pursuing a determined, new focus on larger, commercial and local community solar projects, with a view to accelerating growth rapidly, the Company will continue, as a base level activity, to service the demand from small and medium-sized businesses in rural communities. The strength of demand for projects at this size level could be impacted by curtailment of certain incentives, referred to below, arising from budgetary developments arising from the current political background, referred to below.
Corporate growth opportunities. The Company is also pursuing corporate opportunities to expand through partnerships, joint ventures or other initiatives that meet the Company's criteria of profitability, market opportunity and strong management teams.
