Large Scale Natural Refrigerant Heat Pump Market worth $14.90 billion by 2030
DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Aug. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The global Large Scale Natural Refrigerant Heat Pump Market is anticipated to grow from estimated USD 7.28 billion in 2025 to USD 14.90 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 15.4% during the forecast period. Large scale natural refrigerant heat pumps, particularly those using natural refrigerants, deliver superior performance through a high COP, enabling them to produce significantly more thermal energy per unit of electricity consumed than conventional heating systems. Their ability to extract and upgrade low-grade heat from ambient sources or industrial waste streams makes them an ideal technology for meeting stringent energy efficiency standards while contributing to long-term sustainability and cost optimization. Browse in-depth TOC on "Large Scale Natural Refrigerant Heat Pump Market" 152- Tables45 - Figures174 – Pages Download PDF Brochure: By capacity, 20–200 kW segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. The 20–200 kW capacity segment is increasingly in demand across a wide range of medium-sized commercial and institutional buildings, including hotels, educational facilities, healthcare centers, office buildings, and multi-unit residential complexes. These facilities require consistent, efficient, scalable heating and cooling solutions that adapt to varying load demands. Natural refrigerant heat pumps—using CO2, propane, or ammonia—are ideally suited for this segment, offering high energy efficiency, low environmental impact, and compliance with evolving building codes and climate policies. Their compact design, quiet operation, and ability to deliver heating and cooling make them particularly attractive for urban installations and retrofits. By refrigerant, the Ammonia (R-717) segment is projected to be the second largest segment during the forecast period. The Ammonia (R-717) segment is growing consistently as the global regulatory landscape is rapidly evolving to curb the use of high-GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants, significantly influencing the market demand. Landmark policies—such as the EU's F-Gas Regulation, the US AIM Act, and Canada's HFC reduction plan—are mandating a phasedown of synthetic refrigerants with high climate impact. In response, commercial building owners are proactively transitioning to natural refrigerants like ammonia (R717). These substances offer ultra-low or zero GWP, regulatory compliance, and long-term viability. By adopting natural refrigerant heat pumps, commercial facilities can meet current and upcoming environmental mandates and enhance sustainability credentials, reduce operational risk, and ensure future readiness in a carbon-constrained economy. By region, the Asia Pacific segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. Across the Asia Pacific region, there is a notable shift in both public perception and corporate responsibility regarding environmental sustainability. Heightened awareness of climate change, air quality, and resource efficiency influences consumer preferences and stakeholder expectations. At the same time, businesses are increasingly aligning with global ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) standards, integrating sustainability into their operations and value chains. This growing emphasis on climate-conscious practices fuels demand for clean, low-carbon technologies—such as large scale natural refrigerant heat pumps—which offer long-term environmental benefits, regulatory compliance, and reputational value. As a result, these systems are viewed not just as technical upgrades, but as strategic investments in corporate climate resilience and public trust. Key Market Players Some of the major players in the Large Scale Natural Refrigerant Heat Pump Market are Johnson Controls (US), Siemens Energy (Germany), GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft (Germany), Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (Japan), and Panasonic Holdings Corporation (Japan). The major strategies adopted by these players include acquisitions, product launches, agreements, partnerships, and expansions.

Riskified Reports Second Quarter Results, Driven By New Business Wins and Robust Upsell Activity
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 18, 2025-- Riskified Ltd. (NYSE: RSKD) (the 'Company'), a leader in ecommerce fraud and risk intelligence, today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The Company will host an investor call to discuss these results today at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. 'We delivered solid second-quarter results, driven by consistent execution and demand for our platform. As fraud becomes more complex, we have advanced our AI capabilities to strengthen our competitive edge, expand our market leadership position, and deliver exceptional value to our merchants. The new buyback authorization reflects our confidence in Riskified's long-term potential and our disciplined approach to shareholder returns,' said Eido Gal, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Riskified. Q2 2025 Business Highlights Q2 2025 Financial Summary & Highlights The following table summarizes our consolidated financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, in thousands except where indicated: Additional Financial Highlights 'We remain focused on disciplined execution and managing what's within our control. We believe our ability to deliver positive Adjusted EBITDA and generate free cash flow reflects the strength of our operating model, and reinforces our long-term commitment to driving sustainable shareholder value,' said Aglika Dotcheva, Chief Financial Officer of Riskified. Financial Outlook For the year ending December 31, 2025, we now expect: For the year ending December 31, 2025, we continue to expect: (1) GMV is a key performance indicator. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP diluted net profit per share, and free cash flow are non-GAAP measures of financial performance. See 'Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures' for additional information and 'Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures' for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. (2) We refer to certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures in this press release and on our quarterly results conference call. We are not able to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, or non-GAAP operating expense for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 to net profit (loss), gross profit, and total operating expenses, respectively, because certain items that are excluded from these non-GAAP metrics but included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, cannot be predicted on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort or are not within our control. For example, we are unable to forecast the magnitude of foreign currency transaction gains or losses which are subject to many economic and other factors beyond our control. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable and significant impact on our future GAAP financial results. Authorization to Repurchase Ordinary Shares On August 15, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $75 million of the Company's Class A ordinary shares, subject to the completion of required Israeli regulatory procedures. This authorization is in addition to the Company's existing $225 million share repurchase authorizations in the aggregate, of which approximately $215 million had been utilized as of August 15, 2025. Any share repurchases under the program may be made from time to time in the open market, including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 'Exchange Act'), in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws. The Company intends to fund repurchases from existing cash and cash equivalents. Following, and subject to, completion of the required Israeli regulatory procedures, the timing, as well as the number and value of any shares repurchased under the program, will be determined by the Company at its discretion under the Board authorized program and will depend on a variety of factors, including management's assessment of the intrinsic value of the Company's Class A ordinary shares, the market price of the Company's Class A ordinary shares, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, alternative investment opportunities, and applicable legal requirements. The Company is not obligated to acquire any particular amount of Class A ordinary shares under the program, and the program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. Conference Call and Webcast Details The Company will host a conference call to discuss its financial results today, August 18, 2025 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. A live webcast of the call can be accessed from Riskified's Investor Relations website at A replay of the webcast will also be available for a limited time at The press release with the financial results, as well as the investor presentation materials will be accessible on the Company's Investor Relations website prior to the conference call. Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures This press release and the accompanying tables contain references to Gross Merchandise Volume ('GMV'), which is a key performance indicator, and to certain non-GAAP measures which include non-GAAP measures of financial performance such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP operating expenses by line item, non-GAAP net profit (loss), and non-GAAP net profit (loss) per share, and a non-GAAP measure of liquidity, Free Cash Flow. Management and our Board of Directors use key performance indicators and non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity because they assist us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis, as they remove the impact of items that we believe do not directly reflect our core operations. We also use Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget and financial projections, to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our strategic initiatives, and to evaluate our capacity to expand our business. Free Cash Flow provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that can be used for strategic opportunities, including investing in our business and strengthening our balance sheet. These non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or other items. Non-GAAP measures of financial performance have limitations as analytical tools in that these measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; these measures do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes, and assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. Free Cash Flow is limited because it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Free Cash Flow is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. In light of these limitations, management uses these non-GAAP measures to supplement, not replace, our GAAP results. The non-GAAP measures used herein are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies due to different calculation methods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, as an alternative to, or superior to information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. By providing these non-GAAP measures together with a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure, we believe we are enhancing investors' understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. We define GMV as the gross total dollar value of orders reviewed through our AI-powered ecommerce risk intelligence platform during the period indicated, including the value of orders that we did not approve. GMV is an indicator of the success of our merchants and the scale of our platform. GMV does not represent transactions successfully completed on our merchants' websites or revenue earned by us, however, our revenue is directionally correlated with the level of GMV reviewed through our platform and is an indicator of future revenue opportunities. We generate revenue based on the portion of GMV we approve multiplied by the associated risk-adjusted fee. We define each of our non-GAAP measures of financial performance, as the respective GAAP balances shown in the below tables, adjusted for, as applicable, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of capitalized internal-use software as presented in our statement of cash flows), share-based compensation expense, payroll taxes related to share-based compensation, legal-related and other expenses, restructuring costs, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, other income (expense) including foreign currency transaction gains and losses and gains and losses on non-designated hedges, and interest income (expense). Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of revenue. Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin represents Non-GAAP Gross Profit expressed as a percentage of revenue. We define non-GAAP net profit (loss) per share as non-GAAP net profit (loss) divided by non-GAAP weighted-average shares. We define non-GAAP weighted-average shares, as GAAP weighted average shares, adjusted to reflect any dilutive ordinary share equivalents resulting from non-GAAP net profit (loss), if applicable. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less cash purchases of property and equipment. Management believes that by excluding certain items from the associated GAAP measure, these non-GAAP measures are useful in assessing our performance and provide meaningful supplemental information due to the following factors: Depreciation and amortization: We exclude depreciation and amortization (including amortization of capitalized internal-use software) because we believe that these costs are not core to the performance of our business and the utilization of the underlying assets being depreciated and amortized can change without a corresponding impact on the operating performance of our business. Management believes that excluding depreciation and amortization facilitates comparability with other companies in our industry. Share-based compensation expense: We exclude share-based compensation expense primarily because it is a non-cash expense that does not directly correlate to the current performance of our business. This is partly because the expense is calculated based on the grant date fair value of an award which may vary significantly from the current fair market value of the award based on factors outside of our control. Share-based compensation expense is principally aimed at aligning our employees' interests with those of our shareholders and at long-term retention, rather than to address operational performance for any particular period. Payroll taxes related to share-based compensation: We exclude employer payroll tax expense related to share-based compensation in order to see the full effect that excluding that share-based compensation expense had on our operating results. These expenses are tied to the exercise or vesting of underlying equity awards and the price of our common stock at the time of vesting or exercise, which may vary from period to period independent of the operating performance of our business. Legal-related and other expenses: We exclude certain costs incurred in connection with corporate initiatives that are non-recurring and not reflective of costs associated with our ongoing business and operating results and are viewed as unusual and infrequent. Restructuring costs: We exclude costs associated with reductions in force because these costs are related to one-time severance and benefit payments and are not reflective of costs associated with our ongoing business and operating results and are viewed as unusual and infrequent. See the tables below for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward looking statements contained in Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Securities Act') and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.
