U.S. Growth Strategy: Boralex Signs Contracts for Two New York Solar Projects Totaling 450 MW
MONTREAL, May 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Boralex Inc. ('Boralex' or the 'Company') (TSX: BLX) is pleased to announce it has entered into a Renewable Energy Standard Agreement with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to procure Tier-1 RECs from each of its Fort Covington Solar Project and Two Rivers Solar Project, totaling 450 MW. The signing of these contracts marks a significant milestone in Boralex's contribution to renewable energy in New York and in the Company's development in this promising market. These contracts were awarded as part of NYSERDA's 2024 Renewable Energy Standard Competitive Solicitation for the purchase of New York Tier-1 Eligible Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). Each REC represents the environmental attributes of one megawatt-hour of electricity generated from an eligible renewable source such as solar energy. The two solar facilities will be located in Franklin and St. Lawrence Counties in upstate New York, with permit applications currently under review by the state Office of Renewable Energy Siting and Electric Transmission: The Fort Covington Solar Project (250 MW) is located in the Town of Fort Covington, Franklin County. The Two Rivers Solar Project (200 MW) is located in the Towns of Brasher and Massena, St. Lawrence County. "New York is committed to building a clean energy economy, and Boralex is honored to meaningfully contribute toward achieving the State's renewable energy targets," said Patrick Decostre, President and Chief Executive Officer of Boralex. "We appreciate NYSERDA's confidence in our projects. New York State is a strategic growth market for Boralex, and we are proud to support the State's renewed commitment to advancing clean energy infrastructure.' "Our execution of these contracts for the Fort Covington and Two Rivers projects reflects Boralex's strategic focus on growing our U.S. renewable energy platform," added Hugues Girardin, Executive Vice President, General Manager North America, Boralex. "We are extremely proud of our teams, whose expertise and dedication continue to drive Boralex's successful expansion across North America in response to the consistently strong demand for green electricity." 'Renewable energy projects like Fort Covington and Two Rivers, are crucial to New York's clean energy transition,' said NYSERDA President and CEO Doreen M. Harris. 'Additionally, public-private partnerships like this will bring meaningful benefits to Franklin and St. Lawrence counties by spurring economic investments and delivering affordable and locally-sourced energy to residents of these communities.' "This is very exciting news for our town and the state as it looks to achieve its climate goals,' said Mark Peets, Supervisor of the Town of Brasher. 'Throughout the development of this project, Boralex has done an excellent job communicating the benefits to our community. They've listened to our concerns and, more importantly, made meaningful project changes that have helped build trust and support. We look forward to the hundreds of construction jobs, and tens of millions of dollars in economic development these projects will provide.' "These developments are great news for our community and the surrounding area,' said Susan Bellor, Supervisor, Town of Massena. 'I very much look forward to continuing to strengthen the relationship between Boralex and our town, and I'm excited about the long-term positive economic impact the project will have – not only for the participating landowners, but the broader community." "Small towns like ours don't often get opportunities like this," said Pat Manchester, Supervisor of the Town of Fort Covington. "The Fort Covington Solar Project represents a major investment in our community and our future. We're excited about the jobs, increased tax revenues, and the momentum it brings for sustainable economic growth. Boralex has been a transparent, responsive partner throughout this process, and we're proud to host a project of this scale and significance." Construction of both projects is expected to begin in 2026, and are expected to be commissioned in 2028. They will bring substantial economic, social, and environmental benefits to New York State and to local communities. Once constructed, the projects will together provide enough energy to power approximately 105,000 homes, support approximately 300 to 400 construction jobs, and create long-term operational roles, further strengthening the local economy and advancing the State's transition to clean energy.

MONTREAL, May 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Boralex Inc. ('Boralex' or the 'Corporation') (TSX: BLX) is pleased to report its results for the first quarter of 2025. Highlights Financial results Lower EBITDA(A)1, operating income and net earnings in Q1-2025 Production down 4% (1% on a Combined1 basis)2 from Q1-2024 and 10% (11%) below anticipated production1. Good weather conditions in Canada partially offset less favourable conditions in France. EBITDA(A) of $176 million ($199 million) in Q1-2025, down $19 million ($19 million) from Q1-2024, mainly attributable to lower production and short-term power purchase agreements prices that were more favourable in Q1-2024, in France. Operating income of $65 million ($99 million) in Q1-2025, down $41 million ($35 million) from Q1-2024. Net earnings of $41 million in Q1-2025, down $32 million from Q1-2024. Lower cash flow related to operating activities for the quarter but consistently strong balance sheet Net cash flows related to operating activities of $172 million for Q1-2025 compared to $230 million for Q1-2024. Discretionary cash flows1 of $74 million for Q1-2025, down $4 million from Q1-2024. $388 million in cash and cash equivalents and $504 million in available cash resources and authorized financing1 as at March 31, 2025. Extension of the term of the revolving credit facility to 2030 in April 2025, along with an increase in the letter-of-credit facility guaranteed by Export Development Canada from $350 million to $470 million in April. Update on development and construction activities Start of production at the 106 MW Limekiln wind farm in Scotland Progress in under-construction and ready-to-build projects in spite of supply chain and construction costs challenges Ongoing construction at the Apuiat wind project in Québec (total 200 MW, Boralex's share 100 MW), with commissioning scheduled for summer 2025. Construction of the Hagersville (300 MW) and Tilbury (80 MW) storage projects in Ontario progressing on schedule, with commissioning planned for the fourth quarter of 2025.

I am very grateful to our teams, whose dedication continue to ensure the company's growth in our strategic markets. In a context of increasingly volatile resources, the geographic and technological diversification of our operations makes us more resilient,' said Patrick Decostre, President and Chief Executive Officer of Boralex. 'During the quarter, our wind assets in Canada delivered a strong performance, partially offsetting lower contributions from wind farms in France, which were adversely affected by less favourable wind conditions and the impact of lower contribution from short term contracts. Our teams remain fully focused on improving the operating performance of our assets, pursuing with our cost optimization initiatives and strengthening our selling price optimization strategy. In the coming quarters, Boralex is planning to bid on multiple projects under the calls for tender to be issued this year in each of our target markets. We look forward to sharing news on our 2025-2030 strategic plan at our Investor Day, which will be held on June 17 in Toronto,' Mr. Decostre added. ______________________________________________ 1 EBITDA(A) is a total of segment measures. Anticipated production is an additional financial measure. 'Combined,' 'discretionary cash flows' and 'available cash resources and authorized financing' are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have a standardized definition under IFRS. Consequently, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. For more details, see the Non-IFRS financial measures and other financial measures section of this press release. 2 Figures in brackets indicate results on a Combined basis as opposed to a Consolidated basis. 1st quarter highlights Three-month periods ended March 31 Consolidated Combined (in millions of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise specified) (unaudited) 2025 2024 Change 2025 2024 Change $ % $ % Power production (GWh)(1) 1,691 1,767 (76 ) (4 ) 2,334 2,355 (21 ) (1 ) Revenues from energy sales and feed-in premium 226 259 (33 ) (13 ) 267 291 (24 ) (8 ) Operating income 65 106 (41 ) (39 ) 99 134 (35 ) (26 ) EBITDA(A) 176 195 (19 ) (10 ) 199 218 (19 ) (9 ) Net earnings 41 73 (32 ) (44 ) 41 73 (32 ) (44 ) Net earnings attributable to shareholders of Boralex 30 55 (25 ) (46 ) 30 55 (25 ) (46 ) Per share - basic and diluted $0.29 $0.53 ($0.24 ) (46 ) $0.29 $0.53 ($0.24 ) (46 ) Net cash flows related to operating activities 172 230 (58 ) (25 ) — — — — Cash flows from operations(2) 135 157 (22 ) (14 ) — — — — Discretionary cash flows 74 78 (4 ) (5 ) — — — — (1) Power production includes the production for which Boralex received financial compensation following power generation limitations as management uses this measure to evaluate the Corporation's performance. This adjustment facilitates the correlation between power production and revenues from energy sales and feed- in premium. (2) The cash flows from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure and does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS. Accordingly, it may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies. For more details, see the Non-IFRS and other financial measures section of this press release. In the first quarter of 2025, Boralex produced 1,691 GWh (2,334 GWh) of electricity, 4% (1%) less than the 1,767 GWh (2,355 GWh) produced in the same quarter of 2024. The decrease was attributable mainly to unfavourable wind conditions in France and to a lesser degree to hydropower in the United States. Boralex ended the quarter with production that was 10% (11%) below anticipated production. Revenues from energy sales and feed-in premiums for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, amounted to $226 million ($267 million), 13% (8%) lower than in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease was mainly attributable to the lower production and price impact in France, where Boralex had benefited from higher prices in the previous year. EBITDA(A) amounted to$176 million ($199 million), down 10% (9%) from the first quarter of 2024. The lower prices in France were partly offset by a decrease in the inframarginal rent contribution, which no longer applies in 2025. Operating income totalled $65 million ($99 million), compared to $106 million ($134 million) for the same quarter of 2024. Boralex posted net earnings of $41 million, down $32 million from $73 million in the same quarter of 2024. Outlook Boralex's 2025 Strategic Plan is built around the same four strategic directions as the plan launched in 2019 – growth, diversification, customers and optimization – and six corporate targets. The details of the plan, which also sets out Boralex's corporate social responsibility strategy, are found in the Corporation's annual report. Highlights of the main achievements of fiscal 2024 in relation to the 2025 Strategic Plan can be found in the 2024 Annual Report, which is available in the Investors section of the Boralex website. In the coming quarters, Boralex will continue to work on its various initiatives under the strategic plan, including project development, analysis of acquisition targets and optimization of power sales and operating costs. Finally, to fuel its organic growth, the Corporation has a pipeline of projects at various stages of development defined on the basis of clearly identified criteria, totalling 8 GW of wind, solar and energy storage projects. Dividend declaration The Company's Board of Directors has authorized and announced a quarterly dividend of $0.1650 per common share. This dividend will be paid on June 16, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 30, 2025. Boralex designates this dividend as an 'eligible dividend' pursuant to paragraph 89 (14) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and all provincial legislation applicable to eligible dividends.

Non-IFRS measures Performance measures In order to assess the performance of its assets and reporting segments, Boralex uses various performance measures. Management believes that these measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors to assess the operational performance of a company and its ability to generate cash through operations. The non-IFRS and other financial measures also provide investors with insight into the Corporation's decision making as the Corporation uses these non-IFRS financial measures to make financial, strategic and operating decisions. It is important to note that the non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for IFRS measures. They are primarily derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS; accordingly, they may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-IFRS financial measures are not audited and have important limitations as analytical tools. Investors are therefore cautioned not to consider them in isolation or place undue reliance on ratios or percentages calculated using these non-IFRS financial measures.
