Ormat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ora#NYSE">ORA</a>) reported second-quarter 2024 adjusted earnings per share of 40 cents, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 37 cents by 8.1%. The bottom line was on par with the year-ago quarter&#39;s reported actuals.
The adjusted earnings benefited from higher revenues and improved margins, offset by higher interest expenses.
The company reported GAAP earnings of 37 cents per share compared with 40 cents in the year-ago quarter.
The year-over-year deterioration can be attributed to after-tax write-offs related to the decommissioning of OREG 4, the Recovered Energy Generation facility and an unsuccessful exploration activity.

<h3>Revenues</h3>
ORA generated revenues of $213 million, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.9%. The top line also rose 9.3% year over year, driven by higher revenues from all three of its segments.
<h3>Segmental Revenues</h3>
Electricity: Revenues in this segment amounted to $166.2 million, up 7% year over year. This upside was primarily driven by revenue contributions from its newly acquired Enel assets, a step up in operating performance and power generation at Puna, and the resumption of Heber 1 operations.
Product: This segment&#39;s revenues improved a solid 13.1% to reach $37.8 million from the year-ago quarter&#39;s level. The improvement can be attributed to a higher backlog, enhanced revenue recognition and increased profitability from ORA&#39;s contracts.

Ormat Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORA#NYSE">ORA</a>), a leading renewable energy company, announced today that it has signed a 30-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Electricité de France (EDF) for the development of a new 10MW geothermal power plant on the Island of Guadeloupe, in which we own a 63.75% equity interest. The new plant development will be added to Ormat's existing 15MW Bouillante geothermal power plant. The project's field development is completed with resource secured and is expected to be operational by the end of 2025. &nbsp;
The new power plant will be a sea water-cooled binary system using state-of-the-art Ormat Energy Converters (OEC). The system will be positioned approximately 100 meters above sea level and will incorporate an intermediate cooling loop, which will optimize energy efficiency. This milestone reflects Ormat's commitment to pushing the boundaries of clean energy development and cutting-edge clean energy technology, while continuing to set the stage for a more sustainable future through the ongoing energy transition.
Doron Blachar, CEO of Ormat Technologies, affirms, "This landmark agreement is the second agreement with EDF, reflecting the strength and value creation of our existing relationship. With the addition of the new Bouillante power plant in Guadeloupe and the recent signing of the new 10MW power plant to be built in Dominica, our total geothermal capacity in the Caribbean region will be 35 MW by the end of 2025. Further, this long-term agreement to expand generation capacity and supply clean, renewable, and reliable power to the island demonstrates our steadfast commitment to sustainable low carbon energy solutions. Not only are we transforming the energy landscape, but we're also enhancing the quality of life for residents in the geographies in which we operate."

Monday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from Ormat Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORA#NYSE">ORA</a>). 
<h3>What's Happening</h3>
The company announced on Wednesday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 12 cents per share. On Tuesday, Ormat Technologies will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 12 cents lower than it would have opened on any other day.
In order to be eligible to receive a company's dividend, shareholders must own the stock prior to the ex-dividend date—in this case, Tuesday. Shareholders who own ORA as of the end of Monday's session are eligible to receive the 12 cents dividend payout for every share that they own. 
According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on March 20, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.
