Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Description of business and organization of Nextracker Inc. Description of business and organization of Nextracker Inc.
Nextracker Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Nextracker”, “we”, the “Company”) is a leading provider of intelligent, integrated solar tracker and software solutions used in utility-scale and distributed generation solar projects around the world. Nextracker’s products enable solar panels in utility-scale power plants to follow the sun’s movement across the sky and optimize plant performance. Nextracker has operations in the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Spain and other countries in Europe, India, Australia, the Middle East, and Africa.
Prior to the completion of the Transactions, as described in Note 6, Nextracker operated as part of Flex Ltd. (“Flex”) and not as a standalone entity. On December 19, 2022, Nextracker Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation which was at the time a 100%-owned subsidiary of Yuma, Inc ("Yuma"), a Delaware corporation and former indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Flex Ltd. Nextracker Inc. was formed for the purpose of completing the initial public offering of its Class A common stock (the "IPO") and other related Transactions, in order to carry on the business of Nextracker LLC.
On January 2, 2024, Flex closed the spin-off of all of its remaining interests in Nextracker to Flex shareholder (the "spin-off") and the Company is now operating as a standalone entity.
The Initial Public Offering, the follow-on offering and the separation from Flex.
On February 8, 2023, the Company's registration statement on Form S-1 relating to its IPO was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the shares of its Class A common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on February 9, 2023. The IPO closed on February 13, 2023, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 30,590,000 shares of its Class A common stock at a public offering price of $24.00 per share, giving effect to the exercise in full of the underwriter's option to purchase additional shares. The Company received net proceeds of $693.8 million, after deducting $40.4 million in underwriting discounts. The Company used all of the net proceeds from the IPO to purchase 30,590,000 Nextracker LLC common units from Yuma (see Note 6).
On July 3, 2023 the Company completed a follow-on offering of Class A common stock and issued 15,631,562 shares of Class A common stock and received net proceeds of $552.0 million. All of the net proceeds were used by Nextracker to purchase 14,025,000 Nextracker LLC common units from Yuma, and 1,606,562 Nextracker LLC common units from TPG Rise Flash, L.P. (“TPG Rise”), an affiliate of TPG Inc. (“TPG”). Simultaneously, 14,025,000 and 1,606,562 shares of Class B common stock were surrendered by Flex and TPG, respectively, and cancelled. A proportionate share of redeemable non-controlling interest was reclassified to permanent equity as a result.
On October 25, 2023, pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 7, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Flex, Nextracker, Yuma, and Yuma Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker, Flex delivered to Nextracker the Merger Notice (as defined in the Merger Agreement) exercising Flex’s right to effect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Concurrently, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4, including in a final prospectus filed with the SEC on October 27, 2023.
On January 2, 2024, Flex closed the spin-off of all of its remaining interests in Nextracker to Flex shareholders (See Note 6). Simultaneously, 74,432,619 shares of Class B common stock previously owned by Flex were cancelled, and an equivalent number of shares of Class A common stock were issued to Flex shareholders on a pro-rata basis of their ownership interest in Flex’s common stock.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Summary of accounting policies Summary of accounting policies
Variable interest entities (“VIE”) and consolidation
Subsequent to the IPO, the Company's sole material asset is its member’s interest in Nextracker LLC. In accordance with the Nextracker LLC Operating Agreement, the Company was named the managing member of Nextracker LLC. As a result, the Company has all management powers over the business and affairs of Nextracker LLC and to conduct, direct and exercise full control over the activities of Nextracker LLC. Class A common stock issued in the IPO do not hold majority voting rights but hold 100% of the economic interest in the Company, which results in Nextracker LLC being considered a VIE. Due to the Company's power to control the activities most directly affecting the results of Nextracker LLC, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, beginning with the IPO, the Company consolidates the financial results of Nextracker LLC and its subsidiaries. Nextracker LLC common units held by Yuma, Yuma Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Yuma ("Yuma Sub"), TPG Rise and the following affiliates of TPG: TPG Rise
Climate Flash Cl BDH, L.P., TPG Rise Climate BDH, L.P. and The Rise Fund II BDH, L.P. (collectively, the “TPG Affiliates”) were presented on the consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity under the caption “Redeemable non-controlling interests,” up until the separation with Flex as redemption was outside of the control of the Company. As of March 31, 2024, redemption is no longer outside the control of the Company subsequent to the spin-off from Flex, and therefore the non-controlling interests owned by TPG Affiliates are now presented on the consolidated balance sheets as permanent equity under the caption "non-controlling interests."
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for reporting financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present the Company's financial statements fairly have been included.
Prior to the Transactions (as described in Note 6), Nextracker did not operate as a separate entity and stand-alone separate historical financial statements for Nextracker were not prepared. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements for the period preceding the Transactions were derived from Flex’s historical accounting records and were presented on a carve-out basis and include allocations of certain costs from Flex incurred on Nextracker’s behalf. Such costs may not have represented the amounts that would have been incurred had Nextracker operated autonomously or independently from Flex during the period preceding the Transactions. All intercompany transactions and accounts within Nextracker have been eliminated.
The balance of the redeemable non-controlling interests was reported at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the redeemable non-controlling interest’s share of earnings or losses and other comprehensive income or loss, or its estimated maximum redemption amount. The resulting changes in the estimated maximum redemption amount (increases or decreases) were recorded with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital. Prior to the separation from Flex, these interests were presented on the consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity under the caption “Redeemable non-controlling interests" as redemption was outside of the control of the Company. As of March 31, 2024 (after the separation from Flex), due to the fact that the redemption is no longer outside the control of the Company, the non-controlling interests are now presented on the consolidated balance sheets as permanent equity under the caption "non-controlling interests."
Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is primarily the USD. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income when realized, and were not material for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, impairment of goodwill, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for credit losses, provision for excess or obsolete inventories, valuation of deferred tax assets, warranty reserves, contingencies, operation accruals, and fair values of awards granted under stock-based compensation plans. Due to the long-term economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical conflicts (including the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict), there has been and will continue to be uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The Company has made estimates and assumptions taking into consideration certain possible impacts due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts, and such differences maybe material to the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they occur. Management believes that these estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
Revenue recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (“ASC 606”) for all periods presented. In applying ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of solar tracker systems, parts, extended warranties on solar tracker systems components and software licenses along with associated maintenance and support. In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to recognize, the Company applies the following steps: (i) identify the contracts with the customers; (ii) identify performance obligations in the contracts; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations per the contracts; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) Nextracker satisfies a performance obligation. In assessing the recognition of revenue, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one contract and if the combined or single contract should be accounted for as multiple performance obligations. Further, the Company assesses whether control of the product or services promised under the contract is transferred to the customer at a point in time or over time.
The Company’s contracts for specific solar tracker system projects with customers are predominantly accounted for as one performance obligation because the customer is purchasing an integrated service, which includes Nextracker’s overall management of the solar tracker system project and oversight through the installation process to ensure a functioning system is commissioned at the customer’s location. The Company’s performance creates and enhances an asset that the customer controls as the Company performs under the contract, which is principally as tracker system components are delivered to the designated project site. Although the Company sources the component parts from third party manufacturers, it obtains control and receives title of such parts before transferring them to the customer because Nextracker is primarily responsible for fulfillment to its customer. The Company’s engineering services and professional services are interdependent with the component parts whereby the parts form an input into a combined output for which it is the principal, and Nextracker could redirect the parts before they are transferred to the customer if needed. The customer owns the work-in-process over the course of the project and Nextracker’s performance enhances a customer-controlled asset, resulting in the recognition of the performance obligation over time. The measure of progress is estimated using an input method based on costs incurred to date on the project as a percentage of total expected costs to be incurred. The costs of materials and hardware components are recognized as control is transferred to the customer, which is typically upon delivery to the customer site . As such, the cost-based input measure is considered the best measure of progress in depicting the Company’s performance in completing a tracker system.
Contracts with customers that result in multiple performance obligations include contracts for the sale of components and solar tracker system project contracts with an extended warranty and/or which include the sale of software solutions.
For contracts related to sale of components, Nextracker’s obligation to the customer is to deliver components that are used by the customer to create a tracker system and does not include engineering or other professional services or the obligation to provide such services in the future. Each component is a distinct performance obligation, and often the components are delivered in batches at different points in time. Nextracker estimates the standalone selling price (“SSP”) of each performance obligation based on a cost plus margin approach. Revenue allocated to a component is recognized at the point in time that control of the component transfers to the customer.
At times, a customer will purchase a service-type warranty with a tracker system project. Nextracker uses a cost plus margin methodology to determine the SSP for both the tracker system project and the extended warranty. The revenue allocated to each performance obligation is recognized over time based on the period over which control transfers. The Company recognizes revenue allocated to the extended warranty on a straight-line basis over the contractual service period, which is generally 10 to 15 years. This period starts once the standard workmanship warranty expires, which is generally 5 to 10 years from the date control of the underlying tracker system components is transferred to the customer. To date, revenues recognized related to extended warranty were not material.
Nextracker generates revenues from sales of software licenses of its TrueCapture and NX Navigator offerings, which are often sold separately from the tracker system. Software licenses are generally sold with maintenance services, which include ongoing security updates, upgrades, bug fixes and support. The software license and the maintenance services are separate performance obligations. Nextracker estimates the SSP of the software license using an adjusted market approach and estimates the SSP of the maintenance service using a cost plus margin approach. Revenue allocated to the software license is recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control of the software license, and revenue allocated to the maintenance service is generally recognized over time on a straight-line basis during the maintenance term. Revenues related to sales of software licenses were not material for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 respectively.
Contract estimates
Accounting for contracts for which revenue is recognized over time requires Nextracker to estimate the expected margin that will be earned on the project. These estimates include assumptions on the cost and availability of materials including variable freight costs. Nextracker reviews and updates its contract-related estimates each reporting period and recognizes changes in estimates on contracts under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, Nextracker recognizes the total loss in the period it is identified.
Contract balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on the consolidated balance sheets. Nextracker’s contract amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, which generally coincide with the shipment of one or more phases of the project. When billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, a contract asset results. Contract assets of $397.1 million and $298.0 million as of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively, are presented in the consolidated balance sheets, of which $141.4 million and $116.3 million, respectively, will be invoiced at the end of the projects as they represent funds withheld until the products are installed by a third party, arranged by the customer, and the project is declared operational. The remaining unbilled receivables will be invoiced throughout the project based on a set billing schedule such as milestones reached or completed rows delivered.
During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Nextracker converted $152.3 million and $74.9 million deferred revenue to revenue, respectively, which represented 72% and 70%, respectively, of the beginning period balance of deferred revenue.
Remaining performance obligations
As of March 31, 2024, Nextracker had $294.9 million of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 76% of these performance obligations in the next 12 months. The remaining long-term unperformed obligation primarily relates to extended warranty and deposits collected in advance on certain tracker projects.
Practical expedients and exemptions
Nextracker has elected to adopt certain practical expedients and exemptions as allowed under ASC 606, such as (i) recording sales commissions as incurred because the amortization period is less than one year, (ii) not adjusting for the effects of significant financing components when the contract term is less than one year, (iii) excluding collected sales tax amounts from the calculation of revenue and (iv) accounting for the costs of shipping and handling activities that are incurred after the customer obtains control of the product as fulfillment costs rather than a separate service provided to the customer for which consideration would need to be allocated.
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 Vendor Rebates
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 IRA was enacted into law, which includes a new corporate minimum tax, a stock repurchase excise tax, numerous green energy credits, other tax provisions, and significantly increased enforcement resources. Section 45X of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended 45X Credit was established as part of the IRA and is a per-unit tax credit earned over time for each clean energy component domestically produced and sold by a manufacturer.
The Company has executed agreements with certain suppliers to ramp up its U.S. manufacturing footprint. These suppliers produce 45X Credit eligible parts, including torque tubes and structural fasteners, that will then be incorporated into a solar tracker. The 45X Credit was eligible for domestic parts manufactured after January 1, 2023. The Company has contractually agreed with these suppliers to share a portion of the economic value of the credit related to Nextracker's purchases in the form of a vendor rebate. The Company accounts for these vendor rebate amounts as a reduction of the purchase price of the parts acquired from the vendor and therefore a reduction of inventory until the control of the part is transferred to the customer, at which point the Company recognizes such amounts as a reduction of cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. For certain immaterial vendor rebates related to purchases that occurred prior to the execution of the agreement, the Company capitalized the cumulative impact of the vendor rebates, the
total of which is to be amortized over the life of the associated contract with the supplier, as a reduction of the prices of future purchases. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, due to additional guidance published and after discussion with its vendors, the Company determined the amount of the 45X Credit vendor rebates it expects to receive in accordance with the vendor contracts and recognized a cumulative reduction to cost of sales of $121.4 million related to 45X Credit vendor rebates earned on production of eligible components shipped to projects starting on or after January 1, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $125.4 million in vendor rebates receivable included in other current assets, and approximately $3.0 million of deferred vendor consideration included in accrued expense on the consolidated balance sheet.
Fair value
The fair values of Nextracker’s cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to their short maturities.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable, derivative instruments, and cash and cash equivalents.
Customer credit risk
Nextracker has an established customer credit policy, through which it manages customer credit exposures through credit evaluations, credit limit setting, monitoring and enforcement of credit limits for new and existing customers. Nextracker performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and makes provisions for credit losses based on the outcome of those credit evaluations. Nextracker evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on specific customer circumstances, current economic trends, historical experience with collections and the age of past due receivables. To the extent Nextracker identifies exposures as a result of credit or customer evaluations, Nextracker also reviews other customer related exposures, including but not limited to contract assets, inventory and related contractual obligations.
The following table summarizes the activity in Nextracker’s allowance for credit losses during fiscal years 2024, 2023, and 2022:

Year ended March 31, 2024$1,768 $2,197 $(93)$3,872 
(1) Charges and recoveries incurred during fiscal years 2024 and 2023 are primarily for costs and expenses or bad debt and recoveries related to various distressed customers.
One customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue in fiscal years 2023, and 2022, with revenue of $331.0 million, and $196.2 million, respectively, and greater than 10% of the total balance of accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on receivables and contract assets as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, with balances of approximately 12% and 15%, respectively. This customer accounted for less than 10% of revenue in fiscal year 2024.
Additionally, another customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue in fiscal year 2024 with revenue of $426.1 million, and greater than 10% of the total balance of accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on receivables and contract assets as of March 31, 2024 with balances of approximately 16%.
Accounts receivable, net of allowance
Nextracker’s accounts receivable are due primarily from solar contractors across the United States and internationally. Credit is extended in the normal course of business based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Trade receivables consist of uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 to 90 days of the invoice date. Management regularly reviews outstanding accounts receivable and provides for estimated losses through an allowance for credit losses. In evaluating the level of the allowance for credit losses, Nextracker makes judgments regarding the customers’ ability to make required payments, economic events and other factors. As the financial conditions of Nextracker’s customers change, circumstances develop or additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for credit losses may be required. When deemed uncollectible, the receivable is charged against the allowance.
Product warranty
Nextracker offers an assurance type warranty for its products against defects in design, materials and workmanship for a period ranging from five to ten years, depending on the component. For these assurance type warranties, a provision for estimated future costs related to warranty expense is recorded when they are probable and reasonably estimable, which is typically when products are delivered. The estimated warranty liability is based on our warranty model which relies on historical warranty claim information and assumptions based on the nature, frequency and average cost of claims for each product line by project. When little or no experience exists, the estimate is based on comparable product lines and/or estimated potential failure rates. These estimates are based on data from Nextracker specific projects. Estimates related to the outstanding warranty liability are re-evaluated on an ongoing basis using best-available information and revisions are made as necessary.
The following table summarizes the activity related to the estimated accrued warranty reserve for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

(1)During fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, the Company identified a specific design issue with a non-core product, and recorded an additional $8.7 million charge to cost of sales on its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income, related to future remediation costs, which may include replacement parts and services.
Inventories
Nextracker’s inventory primarily consists of finished goods to be used and to be sold to customers, including components procured to complete the tracker system projects.
Prior to the separation from Flex, inventories were stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. Effective from the date of the spin-off, management elected to state its inventory at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. This change in policy resulted in an immaterial impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, with the exception of building leasehold improvements, which are depreciated over the term of the lease, if shorter. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment is comprised of the following:

Total depreciation expense associated with property and equipment was approximately $4.1 million, $3.4 million, and $2.7 million in fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Nextracker reviews property and equipment for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is determined by comparing the carrying amount to the lowest level of identifiable projected undiscounted cash flows the property and equipment are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of property and equipment exceeds the fair value. Management determined there was no impairment for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Deferred income taxes
For purposes of these consolidated financial statements, prior to the IPO, Nextracker taxes were calculated on a stand-alone basis as if Nextracker completed separate tax returns apart from Flex (“Separate-return Method”). Following the IPO, Nextracker Inc. files a separate tax return. The income taxes as presented herein for the pre-IPO period, allocate current and deferred income taxes of Flex to Nextracker, in a manner that Nextracker believes as systematic, rational, and consistent with the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740, Income Taxes. Accordingly, as stated in paragraph 30 of ASC 740, total amounts allocated to Nextracker may not be indicative of Nextracker’s condition had Nextracker been a separate stand-alone entity during the pre-IPO periods presented.
Following the IPO, Nextracker accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. Nextracker recognizes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Nextracker accounts for uncertain income tax positions by recognizing the impact of a tax position in its consolidated financial statements when Nextracker believes it is more likely than not that the tax position would not be sustained upon examination by the appropriate tax authorities based on the technical merits of the position.
Income taxes
We operate in numerous states and countries and must allocate our income, expenses, and earnings under the various laws and regulations of each of these taxing jurisdictions. Accordingly, our provision for income taxes represents our total estimate of the liability for income taxes that we have incurred in doing business each year in all our locations. Annually, we file tax returns that represent our filing positions with each jurisdiction and settle our tax return liabilities. Each jurisdiction has the right to audit those tax returns and may take different positions with respect to income and expense allocations and taxable earnings determinations. Because the determination of our annual income tax provision is subject to judgments and estimates, actual results may vary from those recorded in our financial statements. We recognize additions to and reductions
in income tax expense during a reporting period that pertains to prior period provisions as our estimated liabilities are revised and our actual tax returns and tax audits are completed.
Tax receivable agreement
The Company has recorded a liability of $391.6 million and $230.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is included in TRA liabilities and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, representing 85% of the estimated future tax benefits subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA"). In U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that we realize or are deemed to realize (determined by using certain assumptions) as a result of favorable tax attributes, will be available to us as a result of certain transactions contemplated in connection with our IPO, exchanges of Class A common stock or cash and payments made under the TRA. The actual amount and timing of any payments under these agreements, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including, among others, the timing of redemptions or exchanges by members of Nextracker LLC, the price of our Class A common stock at the time of the redemptions or exchanges, the extent to which such redemptions or exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of the taxable income we generate in the future and the tax rate then applicable, and the portion of our payments under the tax receivable agreements constituting imputed interest. Estimating future taxable income is inherently uncertain and requires judgment. In projecting future taxable income, we consider our historical results as well as assumptions related to future forecasts for our various businesses by location. The impact of any changes in the total projected obligations recorded under the tax receivable agreements as a result of actual changes in the geographic mix of our earnings, changes in tax legislation and tax rates or other factors that may impact our actual tax savings realized will be reflected in income before taxes in the period in which the change occurs.
Goodwill and other intangibles assets
In accordance with accounting standards related to business combinations, goodwill is not amortized; however, certain finite-lived identifiable intangible assets, primarily customer relationships and acquired technology, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Nextracker reviews identified intangible assets and goodwill for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Nextracker also tests goodwill at least annually for impairment. Refer to Note 5 for additional information about goodwill and other intangible assets.
Other current assets
Other current assets include short-term deposits and advances of $104.7 million and $29.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, primarily related to advance payments to certain vendors for procurement of inventory. In addition, it includes $125.4 million in vendor rebates receivable related to the 45X Credit as further described above under the section "Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 Vendor Rebates."
Deferred tax assets and other assets
Includes deferred tax assets of $438.3 million and $257.1 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, primarily related to the Company's investment in Nextracker LLC as further described in Note 13.
Accrued expenses
Accrued expenses include accruals primarily for freight and tariffs of $43.2 million and $44.6 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition, it includes $39.2 million and $15.2 million accrued payroll as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
TRA liability and other liabilities
TRA liability and other liabilities primarily include the liability of $391.6 million and $230.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to the amount expected to be paid to Yuma, Yuma Sub, TPG and the TPG affiliates as further described in Note 13. Additionally, the balance includes the long-term portion of standard product warranty liabilities of $6.4 million and $11.8 million, respectively, and the long-term portion of deferred revenue of $69.3 million and $35.8 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Redeemable non-controlling interests
Prior to the separation from Flex, the balance of the redeemable non-controlling interests was reported at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the redeemable non-controlling interest’s share of earnings and other comprehensive income, or its estimated maximum redemption amount. The resulting changes in the estimated maximum redemption amount used to be recorded with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital.
The following table present a reconciliation of the change in redeemable non-controlling interests for the periods presented:

Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company records stock-based compensation costs related to its incentive awards. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Compensation cost for time-based awards is recognized ratably over the applicable vesting period. Compensation cost for performance-based awards with a performance condition is reassessed each period and recognized based upon the probability that the performance conditions will be achieved. The performance-based awards with a performance condition are expensed when the achievement of performance conditions are probable. The total expense recognized over the vesting period will only be for those awards that ultimately vest and forfeitures are recorded when they occur. Refer to Note 7 for further discussion.
Leases
Nextracker is a lessee with several non-cancellable operating leases, primarily for warehouses, buildings, and other assets such as vehicles and equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. A contract is a lease or contains a lease when (i) there is an identified asset, and (ii) the customer has the right to control the use of the identified asset. The Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date for Nextracker’s operating leases. For operating leases, the lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date. The Company has elected the short-term lease recognition and measurement exemption for all classes of assets, which allows Nextracker to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less and with no purchase option Nextracker is reasonably certain of exercising. Nextracker has also elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component, for all classes of underlying assets. Therefore, the lease payments used to measure the lease liability include all of the fixed considerations in the contract. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) and variable payments that depend on an index or rate (initially measured using the index or rate at the lease commencement date). As Nextracker cannot determine the interest rate implicit in the lease for its leases, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate as of the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest the Company would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms.
The lease term for all of Nextracker’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that Nextracker is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor.
As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, current operating lease liabilities were $3.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, which are included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and long-term lease liabilities were $13.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 3 for additional information about Leases.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]  
Goodwill and intangible assets Goodwill and intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill relates to the 2015 acquisition of Nextracker LLC and the 2016 acquisition of BrightBox by Flex on behalf of Nextracker LLC. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, goodwill totaled $265.2 million, respectively and is not deductible for tax purposes.
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level annually, and in certain circumstances, such as when there is a change in reporting units or whenever there are indications that goodwill might be impaired. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment assessment on January 1, 2024, and assessed qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely or not that the fair value of its reporting units is less than its carrying amount. The qualitative
assessment required management to make various judgmental assumptions including but not limited to macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, financial performances, change in stock price. Management assessed each factor and evaluated whether the evidence, in aggregate, would indicate that it is more likely than not that the Company's reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. As a result of the qualitative assessment of its goodwill, the Company determined that no impairment existed as of the date of the impairment test because the fair value of its reporting unit exceeded its carrying value.
Other intangible assets
Nextracker amortizes identifiable intangible assets consisting of developed technology, customer relationships, and trade names because these assets have finite lives. Nextracker’s intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. The basis of amortization approximates the pattern in which the assets are utilized over their estimated useful lives. No residual value is estimated for any intangible assets. The fair value of Nextracker’s intangible assets is determined based on management’s estimates of cash flows and recoverability.
Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value. Nextracker reviewed the carrying value of its intangible assets as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and concluded that such amounts continued to be recoverable.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]  
The Transactions The Transactions
The Company and Nextracker LLC completed the following reorganization and other transactions in connection with the IPO (collectively, referred to as the “Transactions”):
Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company issued 128,794,522 shares of its Class B common stock to Yuma, Yuma Sub, and TPG Rise (not inclusive of those held by affiliated blocker corporations – see below) immediately following the Transactions and before giving effect to the IPO.
Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO and as permitted under and in accordance with the limited liability company agreement of Nextracker LLC in effect prior to the IPO (the “Prior LLC Agreement”), TPG Rise exercised its right to have certain blocker corporations affiliated with TPG Rise each merge with a separate direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with the blocker corporations surviving each such merger, in a transaction intended to qualify as a tax-free transaction. In connection with such blocker corporations’ mergers, the investors in each such blocker corporation received a number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock with a value based on the Series A Preferred Units held by such blocker corporation for a total of 15,279,190 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock.
Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, Nextracker LLC made a distribution in an aggregate amount of $175.0 million (the “Nextracker LLC Distribution”). With respect to such Nextracker LLC Distribution, $21.7 million was distributed to TPG Rise and $153.3 million to Yuma and Yuma Sub in accordance with their pro rata units of Nextracker LLC. The Nextracker LLC Distribution was financed, in part, with net proceeds from the $150.0 million term loan under the senior credit facility with a syndicate of banks (the "2023 Credit Agreement"), as further discussed in Note 9.
The Company used all the net proceeds from the IPO ($693.8 million) to purchase 30,590,000 Nextracker LLC common units from Yuma at a price per unit equal to $22.68.
In connection with Yuma’s transfer to the Company of 30,590,000 Nextracker LLC common units, a corresponding number of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock held by Yuma were canceled.
In connection with the IPO, the Company's repurchased all 100 shares of common stock previously issued to Yuma for an immaterial amount.
On February 8, 2023, the Company amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to, among other things, authorize 900,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value Class A common stock, 500,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value Class B common stock, and 50,000,000 shares of par value $0.0001 preferred stock.
On February 13, 2023, the members of Nextracker LLC entered into the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Nextracker LLC (the "LLC Agreement") to, among other things, effect the Transactions described above and to appoint the Company as the managing member of Nextracker LLC. As of March 31, 2024, the Company beneficially owns 140,773,223 LLC common units after the completion of the IPO, the Transactions, the follow-on offering and the Spin Transactions described below.
The 2023 follow-on offering
On July 3, 2023, Nextracker completed an underwritten offering of 18,150,000 shares of Class A common stock, of which 15,631,562 shares were offered and sold by the Company and 2,518,438 shares were offered and sold by certain of the Company’s stockholders for approximately $662.5 million in total gross proceeds, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock. The Company received net proceeds of $552.0 million. The entire net proceeds from the sale of shares by Nextracker were used by Nextracker to acquire 14,025,000 Nextracker LLC common units from Yuma, and 1,606,562 Nextracker LLC common units from TPG Rise. Simultaneously, 14,025,000 and 1,606,562 shares of Class B common stock were surrendered by Flex and TPG, respectively, and cancelled.
As a result of this follow-on offering (referred to as the “Follow-on”), as of the closing date on July 3, 2023:
Approximately $1.8 million of offering costs were paid by Flex.
Immediately following the completion of the Follow-on, Flex (through Yuma and Yuma Sub), owned 74,432,619 shares of Class B common stock, representing approximately 51.45% of the total outstanding shares of the Company's outstanding common stock.
Additionally, TPG owned 8,140,341 shares of Class B common stock representing approximately 5.63% of the total outstanding shares of the Company's outstanding common stock.
The Company beneficially owned 62,053,870 LLC units, representing approximately 42.91% of the total common units of Nextracker LLC.
Exchange Agreement
The Company, Nextracker LLC, Yuma, Yuma Sub and TPG entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) under which Yuma, Yuma Sub and TPG (or certain permitted transferees thereof) have the right, subject to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, to require Nextracker LLC to exchange Nextracker LLC common units (together with a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock) for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock of the Company on a basis, or, in the alternative, the Company may elect to exchange such Nextracker LLC common units (together with a corresponding number of shares of Nextracker Class B common stock) for cash equal to the product of (i) the number of Nextracker LLC common units (together with a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock) being exchanged, (ii) the then-applicable exchange rate under the Exchange Agreement (which will initially be one and is subject to adjustment) and (iii) the Class A common stock value (based on the market price of our Class A common stock), subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and other similar transactions; provided further, that in the event of an exchange request by an exchanging holder, Nextracker may at its option effect a direct exchange of shares of Class A common stock for Nextracker LLC common units and shares of Class B common stock in lieu of such exchange or make a cash payment to such exchanging holder, in each case pursuant to the same economic terms applicable to an exchange between the exchanging holder and Nextracker LLC. As Nextracker LLC interests are redeemable upon the occurrence of an event not solely within the control of the Company, such interests are presented in temporary equity on the consolidated balance sheets.
The Separation Transactions
On October 25, 2023, Flex announced its plan to effect a spin-off of all of its remaining interests in Nextracker pursuant to the Merger Agreement to be effected through the following transactions (together, the “Spin Transactions”): (i) a court-approved capital reduction of Flex to be carried out pursuant to Section 78G of the Singapore Companies Act (the “Capital Reduction”), (ii) a distribution of all the shares of the common stock, par value $0.001, of Yuma (the “Yuma Common Stock”), which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flex that, directly or indirectly, held all of Flex’s remaining interest in Nextracker, by way of a distribution in specie to Flex shareholders (the “Spin Distribution”), (iii) the merger of Yuma with and into Yuma Acquisition Corp., with Yuma surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker (the “Merger”) and pursuant to which each share of Yuma Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger would automatically convert into the right to receive a number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock based on the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (with cash payments to holders of shares of Yuma Common Stock in lieu of any fractional shares of our Class A common stock in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement), and (iv) the merger of Yuma with and into a wholly-owned limited liability company subsidiary of Nextracker, with such limited liability company surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker, undertaken shortly following the completion of the Merger.
On January 2, 2024, Flex closed the spin-off of all of its remaining interests in Nextracker to Flex shareholders. Immediately prior to the spin-off, Flex held 100% of the shares of Yuma Common Stock, and Yuma held, directly and indirectly through Yuma Sub, (i) 74,432,619 shares of Nextracker’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, representing approximately 51.48% of the total outstanding shares of Nextracker’s common stock, based on the number of shares of Nextracker’s common stock outstanding as of December 29, 2023 and (ii) 74,432,619 of the common units of Nextracker LLC, representing approximately 51.48% of the economic interest in the business of Nextracker.
In addition to the Spin Distribution, Flex and Nextracker consummated the Merger, with Yuma surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker. As a result of the Merger, each share of Yuma Common Stock issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the closing of the Merger was automatically converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class A common stock of the Company, based on an Exchange Ratio (as defined below), with cash payments to holders of shares of Yuma Common Stock in lieu of any fractional shares of Class A common stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. The “Exchange Ratio” is equal to the quotient of (i) 74,432,619, which is the number of shares of Class A common stock of Nextracker held by Yuma and Yuma Sub (assuming the exchange by Yuma and Yuma Sub of all Nextracker LLC common units, together with a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock of the Company
held by Yuma and Yuma Sub, for shares of Class A common stock of the Company) divided by (ii) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Yuma Common Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.
As the Merger represents a business combination of entities under common control, the transaction was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805-50, Business Combinations – Related Issues. Upon consummation of the Merger, the assets and liabilities of Yuma, particularly the redeemable interest in Nextracker, were recognized at their carrying value on the date of transfer as a transaction under common control. Once acquired, the redeemable noncontrolling interest was derecognized at its carrying amount. In addition, the Company recognized the issuance of its Class A common stock as consideration of the acquisition of Yuma, with the difference between the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest acquired and the par value of the Class A common stock recorded in additional paid-in capital.
Tax distributions
During fiscal year 2024, and pursuant to the LLC Agreement, Nextracker LLC made pro rata tax distributions to its non-controlling interest holders (Yuma, Yuma Sub and TPG) in the aggregate amount of approximately $66.9 million (Refer to Note 13).

Share-Based Payment Arrangement, Additional Disclosure [Abstract]  
Stock-based compensation Stock-based compensation
The Company adopted the First Amended and Restated 2022 Nextracker LLC Equity Incentive Plan in April 2022 (the “LLC Plan”), which provides for the issuance of options, unit appreciation rights, performance units, performance incentive units, restricted incentive units and other unit-based awards to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. Additionally, in connection with the IPO in February 2023, the Company approved the Second Amended and Restated 2022 Nextracker Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the “NI Plan,” and collectively with the LLC Plan, the “2022 Plan”) to reflect, among other things, that the underlying equity interests with respect to awards issued under the LLC Plan shall, in lieu of common units of Nextracker LLC, relate to Class A common stock of Nextracker for periods from and after the closing of the IPO.
The 2022 Plan is administered by the Board or such other committee appointed by the Board. Awards granted under the 2022 Plan expire no more than 10 years from the grant date. The 2022 Plan authorized the grant of 12.9 million equity-based awards. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately 5.1 million equity-based awards available for grant under the 2022 Plan.
During fiscal year 2024, the Company granted the following three types of equity-based compensation awards to its employees under the 2022 Plan:
Restricted incentive unit awards ("RSU"), whereby vesting is generally contingent upon time-based vesting with continued service over a three-year period from the grant date, with a portion of the awards vesting at the end of each year.
Options awards, whereby such awards will cliff-vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject generally to continuous service through vesting date; and
Performance based vesting awards ("PSUs") whereby vesting is generally contingent upon (i) time-based vesting with continued service through March 31, 2026, and (ii) the achievement of certain metrics specific to the Company, which could result in a range of 0 - 300% of such PSUs ultimately vesting. The earned PSUs will cliff-vest on March 31, 2026.
On the date any performance-based vesting requirement is satisfied, the award holder will become vested in the number of awards that have satisfied the time-based vesting requirement, if any.
At the time of the completion of the Spin Transactions as described in Note 6, the Company assumed outstanding options, RSUs and PSUs granted to its employees pursuant to Flex’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, which were converted (based on the same value of the unvested awards) into options, RSUs and PSUs to purchase or receive an adjusted number of shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the 2022 Plan.

(1)Prior to the separation from Flex as described in Note 6, the expense included an allocation of Flex’s corporate and shared functional employee expense of immaterial amounts. Additionally, during fiscal year 2024, an immaterial number of awards were forfeited due to employee terminations.
Cumulative expense upon IPO and modification of awards
In connection with the IPO and the approval of the NI Plan, all awards previously issued under the LLC Plan were determined to be modified. The modification of the awards granted under the LLC Plan, pre-IPO, were concluded to qualify as a Type I probable-to-probable modification (in accordance with ASC 718-20-55), which resulted in an increase in the total fair value of such awards of $12.3 million, with the Company recording an immaterial amount of incremental stock-based compensation expense related to such modification during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
Considering that the vesting of the awards granted under the 2022 Plan was contingent on an IPO, which occurred on February 9, 2023, the Company recognized $23.3 million of cumulative stock-based compensation expense for all awards outstanding under the 2022 Plan as of that date.
As of March 31, 2024, the total unrecognized compensation expense for unvested awards under the 2022 Plan and the related remaining weighted average period for expensing is summarized as follow:

Determining fair value — RSU awards
Valuation and Amortization Method - The Company determined the fair value of RSUs granted in fiscal year 2024 under the 2022 Plan based on the closing price per share of its Class A common stock as of the grant date of the awards. The compensation expense is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period.
The valuation of RSUs granted under the 2022 Plan, during fiscal year 2023 (prior to the IPO) was determined in accordance with the guidance provided by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Practice Aid, “Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation.” Application of these approaches involves the use of estimates, judgment and assumptions that are highly complex and subjective, such as those regarding our expected future revenue and EBITDA, discount rates, market multiples, the selection of comparable companies and the probability of possible future events. Changes in any or all of these estimates and assumptions or the relationships between those assumptions impact our valuations as of each valuation date and may have a material impact on the valuation of our common stock.
Determining fair value — Options and PSU awards
Valuation and Amortization Method - The Company estimated the fair value of Options awards granted in fiscal year 2024 under the 2022 Plan, using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The fair values of Options awards granted in fiscal year 2023 and PSU awards granted in fiscal years 2024 and 2023, under the 2022 Plan, were estimated using Monte-Carlo simulation models, which is a probabilistic approach for calculating the fair value of the awards.
The compensation expense is generally recognized over the respective vesting period for the awards. For awards without performance conditions, the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis, for awards with a performance condition, the expense is recognized on a graded basis.
Expected volatility - Volatility used in the Black-Scholes option pricing, or in the Monte Carlo simulation, is derived from the historical volatility of Nextracker's Peer Group. The service period of options and PSU awards granted in fiscal year 2024 is three years, respectively. The service period of options and PSU awards granted in fiscal year 2023 is four years, and three years respectively.
Risk-Free Rate assumptions - The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Monte Carlo simulation based on the continuously compounded risk-free rate in the Monte Carlo simulations to calculate the drift rate of the Company and peer group stock prices. The risk-free rate of return was calculated using the U.S. Treasury daily yield curve.
The fair value of the Company's awards granted under the 2022 Plan was estimated based on the following assumptions:

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings per share Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders of the Company by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the applicable periods.
Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from stock-based compensation awards. The potential dilution from awards was computed using the treasury stock method based on the average fair market value of the Company's common stock for the period. Additionally, the potential dilution impact of Class B common stock convertible into Class A was also considered in the calculation.
The computation of earnings per share and weighted average shares outstanding of the Company's common stock since the IPO is presented below:

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]  
Bank borrowings and long-term debt Bank borrowings and long-term debt
On February 13, 2023, the Company and Nextracker LLC (the "LLC"), as the borrower, entered into a senior credit facility with a syndicate of banks (the “2023 Credit Agreement”) comprised of (i) a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million (the “Term Loan”), and (ii) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million (the “RCF”). The RCF is available to fund working capital, capital expenditure and other general corporate purposes.
As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $147.7 million and $147.1 million, respectively, outstanding under the term loan, net of issuance costs, of which $144.0 million and $147.1 million, respectively, are included in long-term debt and $3.7 million and nil, respectively, are included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
The RCF is available in U.S. dollars, euros and such currencies as mutually agreed on a revolving basis during the five-year period through February 11, 2028. A portion of the RCF not to exceed $300.0 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit. A portion of the RCF not to exceed $50.0 million is available for swing line loans. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the LLC will be permitted to incur incremental term loan facilities or increase the RCF commitment in an aggregate principal amount equal to $100.0 million plus an additional amount such that the secured net leverage ratio or total net leverage ratio, as applicable, is equal to or less than a specified threshold after giving pro forma effect to such incurrence. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $434.3 million outstanding under the RCF, net of $65.7 million of outstanding letters of credit.
The obligations of the LLC under the 2023 Credit Agreement and related loan documents are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Company, certain other holding companies (collectively, the “Guarantors”) and, subject to certain exclusions, certain of the LLC’s existing and future direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.
As of the closing of the 2023 Credit Agreement, all obligations of the LLC and the guarantors are secured by certain equity pledges by the LLC and the Guarantors. However, if the LLC’s total net leverage ratio exceeds a specified threshold, the collateral will include substantially all of the assets of the LLC and the Guarantors and, if the LLC meets certain investment grade conditions, such lien will be released.
The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments beginning on June 30, 2024 in an amount equal to 0.625% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan. From June 30, 2025, the quarterly principal payment will increase to 1.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan. The remaining balance of the Term Loan and the outstanding balance of any RCF loans will be repayable on February 11, 2028. Borrowings under the 2023 Credit Agreement are prepayable and commitments subject to being reduced in each case at the LLC’s option without premium or penalty. The 2023 Credit Agreement contains certain mandatory prepayment provisions in the event that the LLC or its restricted subsidiaries incur certain types of indebtedness or, subject to certain reinvestment rights, receive net cash proceeds from certain asset sales or other dispositions of property.
Borrowings in U.S. dollars under the 2023 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate based on either (a) a term secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) based formula (including a credit spread adjustment of 10 basis points) plus a margin of 162.5 basis points to 200 basis points, depending on the LLC’s total net leverage ratio, or (b) a base rate formula plus a margin of 62.5 basis point to 100 basis points, depending on the LLC’s total net leverage ratio. Borrowings under the RCF in euros bear interest based on the adjusted EURIBOR rate plus a margin of 162.5 basis points to 200 basis points, depending on the LLC’s total net leverage ratio. The LLC will is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the RCF commitments of 20 basis points to 35 basis points, depending on the LLC’s total net leverage ratio. The interest rate for the Term Loan is 6.92% (SOFR rate of 5.20% plus a margin of 1.72%) as of March 31, 2024.
The 2023 Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit the ability of the LLC and its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness or liens, to dispose of assets, change their fiscal year or lines of business, pay dividends and other restricted payments, make investments and other acquisitions, make optional payments of subordinated and junior lien debt, enter into transactions with affiliates and enter into restrictive agreements. In addition, the 2023 Credit Agreement requires the LLC to maintain a consolidated total net leverage ratio below a certain threshold. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the 2023 Credit Agreement, the Term Loan and the RCF.
The term loan which is categorized as Level 2 on the fair value hierarchy, bears interest at the applicable SOFR rate as of disbursement date, plus a spread based on certain financial metrics for the last twelve-month period and therefore the carrying amount approximate the fair value as of March 31, 2024. The effective interest rate for the Company's long-term debt was 7.12%, and 6.90% for fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]  
Relationship with Flex Relationship with Flex
On January 2, 2024, Nextracker became a fully independent company upon completion of the Spin Transactions, as described in Note 6, and Flex ceased to be a related party on that date. The Company continues to have significant agreements with Flex, which is further detailed below under the section "Agreements with Flex."
Prior to the IPO, Nextracker was managed and operated in the normal course of business by Flex. Accordingly, certain shared costs were allocated to Nextracker and reflected as expenses in these consolidated financial statements. Nextracker’s management and the management of Flex considered the expenses included and the allocation methodologies used to be reasonable and appropriate reflections of the historical Flex expenses attributable to Nextracker for purposes of the stand-alone financial statements up until the IPO. However, the expenses reflected in these consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of the expenses that would have been incurred by Nextracker during the periods presented if Nextracker historically operated as a separate, stand-alone entity during such period, which expenses would have depended on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed by employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure. In addition, the expenses reflected in the consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of expenses that Nextracker will incur in the future.
Allocation of corporate expenses prior to the IPO and spin-off
The consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the IPO, include expense allocations for certain functions provided by Flex, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, and stock-based compensation. These expenses were allocated to Nextracker on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenue, headcount or other measure.
During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, Nextracker was allocated, $5.2 million and $13.0 million, respectively, of general corporate expenses incurred by Flex. Of these expenses $3.4 million and $9.9 million, respectively, were included within selling, general and administrative expenses and $1.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively, were included in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. An immaterial amount of general corporate expenses incurred by Flex was allocated to Nextracker during the fiscal year 2024 for the period prior to the spin-off.
Risk management
Prior to the IPO, Nextracker paid a premium to Flex in exchange for the coverage provided related to insurance of insurance for property, casualty, product liability matters, auto liability, and workers’ compensation, and various excess policies. In fiscal years 2023 and 2022, the policies with significant premiums included the Marine Cargo/Goods in Transit and the multiple Errors and Omissions policies all through various insurance providers. Expenses related to coverage provided by Flex reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and were immaterial for fiscal years 2023 and 2022.
Cash management and financing prior to the IPO and spin-off
Prior to the IPO, Nextracker participated in Flex’s centralized cash management programs. Disbursements were independently managed by Nextracker.
All significant transactions between Nextracker and Flex that were not historically cash settled were reflected in the consolidated statement of cash flows, for the period prior to the IPO, as net transfers to parent as these were deemed to be internal financing transactions. All intra-company accounts, profits and transactions have been eliminated. The following is a summary of material transactions reflected in the accumulated net parent investment during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

(3)Represents transactions reflected in accumulated net parent investment through February 8, 2023.
The cash balance reflected in the consolidated balance sheets consist of the cash managed and controlled by Nextracker. Prior to the IPO, when Nextracker was a controlled entity of Flex, Nextracker's U.S. operations participated in the Flex cash pooling management programs intra-quarter; all outstanding positions were settled or scheduled for settlement as of each quarter end. Cash pooling activities during the period prior to the IPO were reflected under net transfers from Parent in the consolidated statements of redeemable interest and stockholders' deficit / parent company deficit and the consolidated statements of cash flows. As of the date of the separation with Flex, Nextracker no longer participates in the Flex cash pooling management programs and no cash pool payable was outstanding as of March 31, 2024.
Prior to the separation from Flex, due to related parties related to balances resulting from transactions between Nextracker and Flex subsidiaries that were historically cash settled. Nextracker purchased certain components and services from other Flex affiliates of $67.1 million, and $47.7 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
During the period prior to the IPO, Flex also administered on behalf of Nextracker payments to certain freight providers as well as payrolls to certain employees based in the U.S. Nextracker’s average due to related parties balance was $37.5 million and $36.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 respectively. All related cash flow activities are under net cash used in operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Subsequent to the separation and as of March 31, 2024, transactions with Flex are no longer reported as related party transactions.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $38.6 million of receivables from and $19.3 million of payables to Flex, which are presented as other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.
The Nextracker LLC Distribution
Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the LLC made the Nextracker LLC Distribution of $175.0 million. With respect to such Nextracker LLC Distribution, $21.7 million was distributed to TPG Rise and $153.3 million to Yuma and Yuma Sub in accordance with their pro rata Nextracker LLC common units. The Nextracker LLC Distribution was financed, in part, with net proceeds from the $150.0 million term loan under the 2023 Credit Agreement, as further discussed in Note 9.
Agreements with Flex
Umbrella agreement - In February 2023, Nextracker Brasil Ltda., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker Inc., and Flextronics International Technologia Ltda., an affiliate of Flex, entered into an umbrella agreement (the “Umbrella Agreement”) that governs the terms, conditions and obligations of a strategic commercial relationship between Nextracker Inc. and Flex for the sale of the Company’s solar trackers in Brazil. The Umbrella Agreement is renewable automatically for successive one-year periods, unless a party provides written notice to the other parties that such party does not intend to renew within at least ninety days prior to the end of any term.
Transition Services Agreement— The Company and the LLC entered into a transition services agreement with Flextronics International USA, Inc. ("FIUI"), pursuant to which FIUI and its subsidiaries agreed to provide the Company and its subsidiaries with various services.
Employee Matters Agreement— The Company and Nextracker LLC entered into an employee matters agreement with Flex that governs Nextracker’s and Flex’s compensation and employee benefit obligations with respect to the employees and other service providers of each company, and generally allocates liabilities and responsibilities relating to employment matters and employee compensation and benefit plans and programs. Under the terms of the employee matters agreement, at the time of the completion of the Spin Transactions, Nextracker assumed outstanding options, RSUs and PSUs granted to its employees pursuant to Flex’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (or other applicable equity incentive plan of Flex), which were converted into options, RSUs and PSUs to purchase or receive an adjusted number of shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the 2022 Plan (or other applicable equity incentive plan of Nextracker). The term of the employee matters agreement is indefinite and may only be terminated or amended with the prior written consent of both Nextracker and Flex, and is expected to remain in effect in accordance with its terms following the Spin Transactions.
Tax Matters Agreement—Immediately prior to the Spin Distribution, Nextracker, Flex and Yuma entered into a tax matters agreement (the “Tax Matters Agreement”) which governs the rights, responsibilities and obligations of such parties with respect to taxes (including taxes arising in the ordinary course of business and taxes incurred as a result of the Spin Distribution and the Mergers), tax attributes, tax returns, tax contests and certain other matters.

Litigation and other legal matters
Nextracker has accrued for a loss contingency to the extent it believes that losses are probable and estimable. The amounts accrued are not material, but it is reasonably possible that actual losses could be in excess of Nextracker’s accrual. Any related
excess loss could have a material adverse effect on Nextracker’s results of operations or cash flows for a particular period or on Nextracker’s financial condition.
On February 6, 2024, pursuant to the LLC Agreement, Nextracker LLC made pro rata tax distributions in an aggregate amount of $94.3 million to the common members of the LLC, including an aggregate of $48.5 million to Yuma Acquisition Sub LLC and Yuma Subsidiary, Inc. As of the date of the tax distribution, Yuma Acquisition Sub LLC and Yuma Subsidiary Inc. were wholly-owned subsidiaries of Nextracker Inc. On February 1, 2024, Flex sent a dispute notice to Nextracker Inc. asserting that Flex is entitled to the distribution that was subsequently made to Yuma Acquisition Sub LLC and Yuma Subsidiary, Inc. and demanding payment of that amount to Flex. Nextracker Inc. is evaluating the dispute notice and it is too early to determine the likelihood that the Company will be required to make any such payments to Flex in the future.

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended March 31, 2024. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth.
On the basis of this evaluation, as of March 31, 2024, a valuation allowance account of $1.2 million related to a foreign jurisdiction has been recorded to recognize only the portion of the deferred tax asset that is most likely than not to be realized. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced or increased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company has provided for earnings in foreign subsidiaries that are not considered to be indefinitely reinvested and therefore subject to withholding taxes on $14.0 million of undistributed foreign earnings, recording a deferred tax liability of approximately $1.4 million thereon.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Nextracker and its subsidiaries file federal, state, and local income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions around the world. With few exceptions, Nextracker is no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2018.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits within the Company’s tax expense. The Company had approximately $0.5 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by Nextracker Inc. to Yuma, Yuma Sub, TPG and the TPG Affiliates (or certain permitted transferees thereof) of 85% of the tax benefits, if any, that Nextracker Inc. is deemed to realize under certain circumstances as a result of (i) its allocable share of existing tax basis in tangible and intangible assets resulting from exchanges or acquisitions of outstanding Series A Preferred Units or common units of the LLC (collectively, the “LLC Units”), including as part of the Transactions or under the Exchange Agreement, (ii) increases in tax basis resulting from exchanges or acquisitions of LLC Units and shares of Nextracker Inc.'s Class B common stock (including as part of the Transactions or under the Exchange Agreement), (iii) certain pre-existing tax attributes of certain blocker corporations affiliated with TPG Rise that each merged with a separate direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Nextracker Inc., as part of the Transactions, and (iv) certain other tax benefits related to Nextracker Inc. entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Prior to the Spin Transactions, Yuma and Yuma Sub assigned their respective rights under the Tax Receivable Agreement to an entity that remains an affiliate of Flex.
As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, a liability of $391.6 million and $230.3 million, respectively, was recorded for the expected amount to be paid to Flex affiliate, TPG and the TPG affiliates, which is included in TRA liability and other liability on the consolidated balance sheets. Separately, a deferred tax asset of $409.7 million and $249.4 million has been booked as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflecting Nextracker's outside basis difference in Nextracker LLC, which is included in deferred tax assets and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The difference between the liability and the deferred tax asset was recorded to additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheets.
During fiscal year 2024, the Company incurred $28.4 million of other tax related income driven by the reduction in its liability under the TRA due to a decrease in its forecasted estimated state effective tax rate. These tax related income have been presented in other (income) expense, net on the consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.
Tax distributions
During fiscal year 2024, and pursuant to the LLC Agreement, Nextracker LLC made pro rata tax distributions to its non-controlling interest holders (Yuma, Yuma Sub and TPG) in the aggregate amount of approximately $66.9 million.
Pillar Two
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”), a global policy forum, issued the Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion rules, which a global minimum tax of 15% would apply to multinational groups with consolidated financial statement revenue in excess of EUR750 million. Nearly all OECD member jurisdictions have agreed in principle to adopt these provisions and numerous jurisdictions including jurisdictions where the Company operates, have enacted these rules effective January 1, 2024. The Company has evaluated the impact of these rules and currently believes they will not have a material impact on financial results through 2026 due to certain transitional safe harbors. The Company will continue to monitor and refine its assessment as further guidance is made available.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Variable interest entities ("VIE") and consolidation
Variable interest entities (“VIE”) and consolidation
Subsequent to the IPO, the Company's sole material asset is its member’s interest in Nextracker LLC. In accordance with the Nextracker LLC Operating Agreement, the Company was named the managing member of Nextracker LLC. As a result, the Company has all management powers over the business and affairs of Nextracker LLC and to conduct, direct and exercise full control over the activities of Nextracker LLC. Class A common stock issued in the IPO do not hold majority voting rights but hold 100% of the economic interest in the Company, which results in Nextracker LLC being considered a VIE. Due to the Company's power to control the activities most directly affecting the results of Nextracker LLC, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, beginning with the IPO, the Company consolidates the financial results of Nextracker LLC and its subsidiaries. Nextracker LLC common units held by Yuma, Yuma Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Yuma ("Yuma Sub"), TPG Rise and the following affiliates of TPG: TPG Rise
Climate Flash Cl BDH, L.P., TPG Rise Climate BDH, L.P. and The Rise Fund II BDH, L.P. (collectively, the “TPG Affiliates”) were presented on the consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity under the caption “Redeemable non-controlling interests,” up until the separation with Flex as redemption was outside of the control of the Company. As of March 31, 2024, redemption is no longer outside the control of the Company subsequent to the spin-off from Flex, and therefore the non-controlling interests owned by TPG Affiliates are now presented on the consolidated balance sheets as permanent equity under the caption "non-controlling interests."
Basis of presentation
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for reporting financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present the Company's financial statements fairly have been included.
Prior to the Transactions (as described in Note 6), Nextracker did not operate as a separate entity and stand-alone separate historical financial statements for Nextracker were not prepared. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements for the period preceding the Transactions were derived from Flex’s historical accounting records and were presented on a carve-out basis and include allocations of certain costs from Flex incurred on Nextracker’s behalf. Such costs may not have represented the amounts that would have been incurred had Nextracker operated autonomously or independently from Flex during the period preceding the Transactions. All intercompany transactions and accounts within Nextracker have been eliminated.
The balance of the redeemable non-controlling interests was reported at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the redeemable non-controlling interest’s share of earnings or losses and other comprehensive income or loss, or its estimated maximum redemption amount. The resulting changes in the estimated maximum redemption amount (increases or decreases) were recorded with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital. Prior to the separation from Flex, these interests were presented on the consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity under the caption “Redeemable non-controlling interests" as redemption was outside of the control of the Company. As of March 31, 2024 (after the separation from Flex), due to the fact that the redemption is no longer outside the control of the Company, the non-controlling interests are now presented on the consolidated balance sheets as permanent equity under the caption "non-controlling interests."
Foreign currency translation
Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is primarily the USD. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income when realized, and were not material for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
Use of estimates
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, impairment of goodwill, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for credit losses, provision for excess or obsolete inventories, valuation of deferred tax assets, warranty reserves, contingencies, operation accruals, and fair values of awards granted under stock-based compensation plans. Due to the long-term economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical conflicts (including the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict), there has been and will continue to be uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The Company has made estimates and assumptions taking into consideration certain possible impacts due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts, and such differences maybe material to the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they occur. Management believes that these estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
Revenue recognition
Revenue recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (“ASC 606”) for all periods presented. In applying ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of solar tracker systems, parts, extended warranties on solar tracker systems components and software licenses along with associated maintenance and support. In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to recognize, the Company applies the following steps: (i) identify the contracts with the customers; (ii) identify performance obligations in the contracts; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations per the contracts; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) Nextracker satisfies a performance obligation. In assessing the recognition of revenue, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one contract and if the combined or single contract should be accounted for as multiple performance obligations. Further, the Company assesses whether control of the product or services promised under the contract is transferred to the customer at a point in time or over time.
The Company’s contracts for specific solar tracker system projects with customers are predominantly accounted for as one performance obligation because the customer is purchasing an integrated service, which includes Nextracker’s overall management of the solar tracker system project and oversight through the installation process to ensure a functioning system is commissioned at the customer’s location. The Company’s performance creates and enhances an asset that the customer controls as the Company performs under the contract, which is principally as tracker system components are delivered to the designated project site. Although the Company sources the component parts from third party manufacturers, it obtains control and receives title of such parts before transferring them to the customer because Nextracker is primarily responsible for fulfillment to its customer. The Company’s engineering services and professional services are interdependent with the component parts whereby the parts form an input into a combined output for which it is the principal, and Nextracker could redirect the parts before they are transferred to the customer if needed. The customer owns the work-in-process over the course of the project and Nextracker’s performance enhances a customer-controlled asset, resulting in the recognition of the performance obligation over time. The measure of progress is estimated using an input method based on costs incurred to date on the project as a percentage of total expected costs to be incurred. The costs of materials and hardware components are recognized as control is transferred to the customer, which is typically upon delivery to the customer site . As such, the cost-based input measure is considered the best measure of progress in depicting the Company’s performance in completing a tracker system.
Contracts with customers that result in multiple performance obligations include contracts for the sale of components and solar tracker system project contracts with an extended warranty and/or which include the sale of software solutions.
For contracts related to sale of components, Nextracker’s obligation to the customer is to deliver components that are used by the customer to create a tracker system and does not include engineering or other professional services or the obligation to provide such services in the future. Each component is a distinct performance obligation, and often the components are delivered in batches at different points in time. Nextracker estimates the standalone selling price (“SSP”) of each performance obligation based on a cost plus margin approach. Revenue allocated to a component is recognized at the point in time that control of the component transfers to the customer.
At times, a customer will purchase a service-type warranty with a tracker system project. Nextracker uses a cost plus margin methodology to determine the SSP for both the tracker system project and the extended warranty. The revenue allocated to each performance obligation is recognized over time based on the period over which control transfers. The Company recognizes revenue allocated to the extended warranty on a straight-line basis over the contractual service period, which is generally 10 to 15 years. This period starts once the standard workmanship warranty expires, which is generally 5 to 10 years from the date control of the underlying tracker system components is transferred to the customer. To date, revenues recognized related to extended warranty were not material.
Nextracker generates revenues from sales of software licenses of its TrueCapture and NX Navigator offerings, which are often sold separately from the tracker system. Software licenses are generally sold with maintenance services, which include ongoing security updates, upgrades, bug fixes and support. The software license and the maintenance services are separate performance obligations. Nextracker estimates the SSP of the software license using an adjusted market approach and estimates the SSP of the maintenance service using a cost plus margin approach. Revenue allocated to the software license is recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control of the software license, and revenue allocated to the maintenance service is generally recognized over time on a straight-line basis during the maintenance term. Revenues related to sales of software licenses were not material for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 respectively.
Contract estimates
Accounting for contracts for which revenue is recognized over time requires Nextracker to estimate the expected margin that will be earned on the project. These estimates include assumptions on the cost and availability of materials including variable freight costs. Nextracker reviews and updates its contract-related estimates each reporting period and recognizes changes in estimates on contracts under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, Nextracker recognizes the total loss in the period it is identified.
Contract balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on the consolidated balance sheets. Nextracker’s contract amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, which generally coincide with the shipment of one or more phases of the project. When billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, a contract asset results. Contract assets of $397.1 million and $298.0 million as of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively, are presented in the consolidated balance sheets, of which $141.4 million and $116.3 million, respectively, will be invoiced at the end of the projects as they represent funds withheld until the products are installed by a third party, arranged by the customer, and the project is declared operational. The remaining unbilled receivables will be invoiced throughout the project based on a set billing schedule such as milestones reached or completed rows delivered.
During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Nextracker converted $152.3 million and $74.9 million deferred revenue to revenue, respectively, which represented 72% and 70%, respectively, of the beginning period balance of deferred revenue.
Remaining performance obligations
As of March 31, 2024, Nextracker had $294.9 million of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 76% of these performance obligations in the next 12 months. The remaining long-term unperformed obligation primarily relates to extended warranty and deposits collected in advance on certain tracker projects.
Practical expedients and exemptions
Nextracker has elected to adopt certain practical expedients and exemptions as allowed under ASC 606, such as (i) recording sales commissions as incurred because the amortization period is less than one year, (ii) not adjusting for the effects of significant financing components when the contract term is less than one year, (iii) excluding collected sales tax amounts from the calculation of revenue and (iv) accounting for the costs of shipping and handling activities that are incurred after the customer obtains control of the product as fulfillment costs rather than a separate service provided to the customer for which consideration would need to be allocated.
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 Vendor Rebates
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 IRA was enacted into law, which includes a new corporate minimum tax, a stock repurchase excise tax, numerous green energy credits, other tax provisions, and significantly increased enforcement resources. Section 45X of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended 45X Credit was established as part of the IRA and is a per-unit tax credit earned over time for each clean energy component domestically produced and sold by a manufacturer.
The Company has executed agreements with certain suppliers to ramp up its U.S. manufacturing footprint. These suppliers produce 45X Credit eligible parts, including torque tubes and structural fasteners, that will then be incorporated into a solar tracker. The 45X Credit was eligible for domestic parts manufactured after January 1, 2023. The Company has contractually agreed with these suppliers to share a portion of the economic value of the credit related to Nextracker's purchases in the form of a vendor rebate. The Company accounts for these vendor rebate amounts as a reduction of the purchase price of the parts acquired from the vendor and therefore a reduction of inventory until the control of the part is transferred to the customer, at which point the Company recognizes such amounts as a reduction of cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. For certain immaterial vendor rebates related to purchases that occurred prior to the execution of the agreement, the Company capitalized the cumulative impact of the vendor rebates, the
total of which is to be amortized over the life of the associated contract with the supplier, as a reduction of the prices of future purchases. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, due to additional guidance published and after discussion with its vendors, the Company determined the amount of the 45X Credit vendor rebates it expects to receive in accordance with the vendor contracts and recognized a cumulative reduction to cost of sales of $121.4 million related to 45X Credit vendor rebates earned on production of eligible components shipped to projects starting on or after January 1, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $125.4 million in vendor rebates receivable included in other current assets, and approximately $3.0 million of deferred vendor consideration included in accrued expense on the consolidated balance sheet.
Fair value
Fair value
The fair values of Nextracker’s cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to their short maturities.
Concentration of credit risk
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable, derivative instruments, and cash and cash equivalents.
Customer credit risk
Nextracker has an established customer credit policy, through which it manages customer credit exposures through credit evaluations, credit limit setting, monitoring and enforcement of credit limits for new and existing customers. Nextracker performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and makes provisions for credit losses based on the outcome of those credit evaluations. Nextracker evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on specific customer circumstances, current economic trends, historical experience with collections and the age of past due receivables. To the extent Nextracker identifies exposures as a result of credit or customer evaluations, Nextracker also reviews other customer related exposures, including but not limited to contract assets, inventory and related contractual obligations.
The following table summarizes the activity in Nextracker’s allowance for credit losses during fiscal years 2024, 2023, and 2022:

(1) Charges and recoveries incurred during fiscal years 2024 and 2023 are primarily for costs and expenses or bad debt and recoveries related to various distressed customers.
One customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue in fiscal years 2023, and 2022, with revenue of $331.0 million, and $196.2 million, respectively, and greater than 10% of the total balance of accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on receivables and contract assets as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, with balances of approximately 12% and 15%, respectively. This customer accounted for less than 10% of revenue in fiscal year 2024.
Additionally, another customer accounted for greater than 10% of revenue in fiscal year 2024 with revenue of $426.1 million, and greater than 10% of the total balance of accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on receivables and contract assets as of March 31, 2024 with balances of approximately 16%.
Accounts receivable, net of allowance
Accounts receivable, net of allowance
Nextracker’s accounts receivable are due primarily from solar contractors across the United States and internationally. Credit is extended in the normal course of business based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Trade receivables consist of uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 to 90 days of the invoice date. Management regularly reviews outstanding accounts receivable and provides for estimated losses through an allowance for credit losses. In evaluating the level of the allowance for credit losses, Nextracker makes judgments regarding the customers’ ability to make required payments, economic events and other factors. As the financial conditions of Nextracker’s customers change, circumstances develop or additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for credit losses may be required. When deemed uncollectible, the receivable is charged against the allowance.
Product warranty
Product warranty
Nextracker offers an assurance type warranty for its products against defects in design, materials and workmanship for a period ranging from five to ten years, depending on the component. For these assurance type warranties, a provision for estimated future costs related to warranty expense is recorded when they are probable and reasonably estimable, which is typically when products are delivered. The estimated warranty liability is based on our warranty model which relies on historical warranty claim information and assumptions based on the nature, frequency and average cost of claims for each product line by project. When little or no experience exists, the estimate is based on comparable product lines and/or estimated potential failure rates. These estimates are based on data from Nextracker specific projects. Estimates related to the outstanding warranty liability are re-evaluated on an ongoing basis using best-available information and revisions are made as necessary.
The following table summarizes the activity related to the estimated accrued warranty reserve for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

(1)During fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, the Company identified a specific design issue with a non-core product, and recorded an additional $8.7 million charge to cost of sales on its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income, related to future remediation costs, which may include replacement parts and services.
Inventories
Inventories
Nextracker’s inventory primarily consists of finished goods to be used and to be sold to customers, including components procured to complete the tracker system projects.
Prior to the separation from Flex, inventories were stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. Effective from the date of the spin-off, management elected to state its inventory at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. This change in policy resulted in an immaterial impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, with the exception of building leasehold improvements, which are depreciated over the term of the lease, if shorter. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment is comprised of the following:

Total depreciation expense associated with property and equipment was approximately $4.1 million, $3.4 million, and $2.7 million in fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Nextracker reviews property and equipment for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is determined by comparing the carrying amount to the lowest level of identifiable projected undiscounted cash flows the property and equipment are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of property and equipment exceeds the fair value. Management determined there was no impairment for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Deferred income taxes
Deferred income taxes
For purposes of these consolidated financial statements, prior to the IPO, Nextracker taxes were calculated on a stand-alone basis as if Nextracker completed separate tax returns apart from Flex (“Separate-return Method”). Following the IPO, Nextracker Inc. files a separate tax return. The income taxes as presented herein for the pre-IPO period, allocate current and deferred income taxes of Flex to Nextracker, in a manner that Nextracker believes as systematic, rational, and consistent with the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740, Income Taxes. Accordingly, as stated in paragraph 30 of ASC 740, total amounts allocated to Nextracker may not be indicative of Nextracker’s condition had Nextracker been a separate stand-alone entity during the pre-IPO periods presented.
Following the IPO, Nextracker accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. Nextracker recognizes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Nextracker accounts for uncertain income tax positions by recognizing the impact of a tax position in its consolidated financial statements when Nextracker believes it is more likely than not that the tax position would not be sustained upon examination by the appropriate tax authorities based on the technical merits of the position.
Income taxes
Income taxes
We operate in numerous states and countries and must allocate our income, expenses, and earnings under the various laws and regulations of each of these taxing jurisdictions. Accordingly, our provision for income taxes represents our total estimate of the liability for income taxes that we have incurred in doing business each year in all our locations. Annually, we file tax returns that represent our filing positions with each jurisdiction and settle our tax return liabilities. Each jurisdiction has the right to audit those tax returns and may take different positions with respect to income and expense allocations and taxable earnings determinations. Because the determination of our annual income tax provision is subject to judgments and estimates, actual results may vary from those recorded in our financial statements. We recognize additions to and reductions
in income tax expense during a reporting period that pertains to prior period provisions as our estimated liabilities are revised and our actual tax returns and tax audits are completed.
Tax receivable agreement
Tax receivable agreement
The Company has recorded a liability of $391.6 million and $230.3 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is included in TRA liabilities and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, representing 85% of the estimated future tax benefits subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA"). In U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that we realize or are deemed to realize (determined by using certain assumptions) as a result of favorable tax attributes, will be available to us as a result of certain transactions contemplated in connection with our IPO, exchanges of Class A common stock or cash and payments made under the TRA. The actual amount and timing of any payments under these agreements, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including, among others, the timing of redemptions or exchanges by members of Nextracker LLC, the price of our Class A common stock at the time of the redemptions or exchanges, the extent to which such redemptions or exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of the taxable income we generate in the future and the tax rate then applicable, and the portion of our payments under the tax receivable agreements constituting imputed interest. Estimating future taxable income is inherently uncertain and requires judgment. In projecting future taxable income, we consider our historical results as well as assumptions related to future forecasts for our various businesses by location. The impact of any changes in the total projected obligations recorded under the tax receivable agreements as a result of actual changes in the geographic mix of our earnings, changes in tax legislation and tax rates or other factors that may impact our actual tax savings realized will be reflected in income before taxes in the period in which the change occurs.

Redeemable non-controlling interests
Redeemable non-controlling interests
Prior to the separation from Flex, the balance of the redeemable non-controlling interests was reported at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the redeemable non-controlling interest’s share of earnings and other comprehensive income, or its estimated maximum redemption amount. The resulting changes in the estimated maximum redemption amount used to be recorded with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital.

Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company records stock-based compensation costs related to its incentive awards. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Compensation cost for time-based awards is recognized ratably over the applicable vesting period. Compensation cost for performance-based awards with a performance condition is reassessed each period and recognized based upon the probability that the performance conditions will be achieved. The performance-based awards with a performance condition are expensed when the achievement of performance conditions are probable. The total expense recognized over the vesting period will only be for those awards that ultimately vest and forfeitures are recorded when they occur. Refer to Note 7 for further discussion.
Leases
Leases
Nextracker is a lessee with several non-cancellable operating leases, primarily for warehouses, buildings, and other assets such as vehicles and equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. A contract is a lease or contains a lease when (i) there is an identified asset, and (ii) the customer has the right to control the use of the identified asset. The Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date for Nextracker’s operating leases. For operating leases, the lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date. The Company has elected the short-term lease recognition and measurement exemption for all classes of assets, which allows Nextracker to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less and with no purchase option Nextracker is reasonably certain of exercising. Nextracker has also elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component, for all classes of underlying assets. Therefore, the lease payments used to measure the lease liability include all of the fixed considerations in the contract. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) and variable payments that depend on an index or rate (initially measured using the index or rate at the lease commencement date). As Nextracker cannot determine the interest rate implicit in the lease for its leases, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate as of the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest the Company would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms.
The lease term for all of Nextracker’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that Nextracker is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor.
As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, current operating lease liabilities were $3.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, which are included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and long-term lease liabilities were $13.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 3 for additional information about Leases.
