To Our Shareholders

Dear fellow shareholders,

SolarEdge is a global leader in renewable energy solutions, built on innovation, engineering excellence, and strong customer relationships. Our mission is to develop and scale technologies that improve how we generate, manage, store and use electricity at a time when global power demand is rising rapidly.

2025 was a defining year for SolarEdge. It was a year of honest self-assessment, decisive action, and tangible progress in our turnaround, including strong year-over-year revenue growth, gross margin expansion in each quarter, and a return to positive free cash flow for the full year. We also advanced our next-generation roadmap, including the Single SKU concept and initial SolarEdge Nexis shipments, and continued to ramp up U.S. manufacturing—including export of U.S.-manufactured products.

Our turnaround strategy has been grounded in four core priorities: strengthening our financial profile, gaining market share, accelerating innovation, and ramping our U.S. manufacturing capacity. These priorities are operational and measurable, and they continue to guide our decision-making across the organization as we shift from stabilizing the business to executing at scale.

First, we strengthened our financial profile through disciplined cash, cost, and working capital management. We reduced inventory for multiple consecutive quarters, streamlined and exited noncore activities and geographies, and improved operating performance quarter by quarter. Importantly, we generated positive free cash flow for the full year, a meaningful change from 2024, and ended 2025 with a healthy cash and investments position to support our growth plans.

Second, we refocused on customers and operational execution. In the U.S., we increased market share across residential, commercial and storage, supported by improved quality and service, deep relationships with third-party ownership (TPO) partners, and products designed to meet domestic content and non-FEOC requirements. In Europe, we continue to focus on prolonged channel inventory normalization, working closely with installers and distributors and rebuilding engagement, and we began to see initial share gains and improving trends as the year progressed.

Third, innovation remains central to our long-term value creation. During 2025, we introduced the Single SKU concept, a software defined platform that reduces complexity by allowing an inverter SKU to be programmed to the desired kilowatt rating in the field. We also advanced our next generation SolarEdge Nexis platform, shipping initial units and progressing toward broader rollout, alongside continued investment in software and energy management capabilities that support integrated solar, storage, EV charging, and load control solutions. We also began investing in AI data center power solutions, where power is increasingly the limiting factor for AI expansion and the industry is moving toward 800V DC architectures. Building on two decades of power electronics expertise, we are advancing a solid state transformer platform designed to convert medium voltage directly to 800V DC with very high efficiency, and we have begun engaging with potential customers and ecosystem partners.

Finally, we continued to ramp our U.S. manufacturing footprint to reinforce supply chain resilience, improve our cost’s structure, and support customers seeking American-manufactured solutions. Our footprint includes residential inverters in Texas, optimizers and commercial inverters in Florida, and batteries in Utah. We reached an important milestone by beginning to export U.S.-manufactured products to international markets.

I am extremely proud of the SolarEdge team’s continued focus on disciplined execution, strong governance, and long-term shareholder value. Over the past year, we continued to prioritize our engagement with shareholders and remained committed to governance practices that promote accountability and effective oversight. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please vote as soon as possible so your shares are represented.

While challenges remain and the external environment continues to evolve, we enter 2026 with clearer momentum and a stronger foundation. We intend to maintain the discipline we rebuilt in 2025 while shifting to an offense mindset, moving toward profitable growth, continue gaining share in our core markets, scaling Nexis, and investing in new high growth adjacencies such as AI data center power solutions.

We measure our success by building a more resilient, more profitable SolarEdge—one that earns customer trust, compounds innovation over time, and delivers sustainable long-term returns for our shareholders. On behalf of the Board of Directors and the entire SolarEdge team, thank you for your continued trust and support. We remain committed to transparent communication and rigorous execution, and we look forward to updating you on our progress in the year ahead.

Sincerely,

Shuki Nir
CEO

Our Company

SolarEdge is a global leader in smart energy technology that changed the way power is harvested and managed in photovoltaic (also known as PV) systems. Our direct current (“DC”), optimized inverter system maximizes power generation while lowering the cost of energy produced by the PV system for improved return on investment. Additional benefits of the DC optimized inverter system include: comprehensive and advanced safety features, improved design flexibility, efficient integration (DC coupled) with SolarEdge storage solutions, and improved operation and maintenance, with remote monitoring at the module-level. The typical SolarEdge DC optimized inverter system consists of inverters, Optimizers, a communication device which enables access to a cloud-based Monitoring Platform and, in many cases, a battery and additional smart energy management solutions and devices, such as EV chargers and load controllers. As part of our hardware sales, we also provide the energy management software which controls, manages and optimizes the energy production, storage and use of energy generated by our systems. Our solutions address a broad range of solar market segments, from residential solar installations to commercial and small utility scale solar installations.

Financial Highlights and Link to Pay Decisions

How Our Compensation Program Supports Our Business Strategy

Our executive compensation program is designed to align stockholders’ interests with the Company’s performance, retain and incentivize our senior executives, drive long-term business goals and encourage responsible risk-taking. These goals are achieved by linking individual pay with the Company’s overall performance on financial and business strategic goals. All senior executives have a large portion of compensation that is variable and covers annual and multi-year performance periods. Long-term incentive awards are designed to align executives with the Company’s long-term performance. In 2025, as in recent years, the long-term award mix under the annual equity incentive program was comprised 50% of performance stock units (“PSUs”) and 50% of time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”).

Proposal No. 1
Election Of Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors is presently comprised of seven members, who were previously divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The classification of our board of directors has been phased out, such that, beginning with this year’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the declassification of our board of directors has been completed and all directors will be subject to annual election for one-year terms. Our board of directors consists of Avery More, Shuki Nir, Guy Gecht, Betsy Atkins, Yoram Tietz, Dana Gross, and Gilad Almogy. Each of our seven directors have terms of office expiring at our Annual Meeting. Each of Betsy Atkins, Yoram Tietz, Gilad Almogy, Avery More, and Shuki Nir were last elected at our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. Dana Gross was appointed to our Board effective July 5, 2023, and was initially recommended to our Board by the Company’s former CEO, Zvi Lando. Guy Gecht was appointed to our Board effective November 6, 2024, and was initially recommended to our Board by a non-management director.

If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of the nominees will serve for a one-year term until the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, or removal. If any nominee is unable or unwilling to be a candidate for election by the time of the Annual Meeting (a contingency which the Board does not expect to occur), the stockholders may vote for a substitute nominee chosen by the present Board to fill the vacancy. Alternatively, the stockholders may vote for just the remaining nominees, leaving a vacancy that may be filled on a later date by the Board, or the Board may reduce the size of the Board of Directors.

For each of the director nominees the following pages contain certain biographical information including a description of their professional background, primary qualifications, attributes and skills, as well as information on which Board committees the directors serve on.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board have identified particular qualifications, attributes, skills and experiences that are important to be represented on the Board as a whole, in light of the Company’s current needs and business priorities:

	Leadership and Executive Experience in Public Companies We believe that directors who have significant practical experience, demonstrated business acumen and leadership, and high levels of accomplishment will possess the ability to exercise sound business judgment and to provide insight and practical wisdom to help us analyze, shape, and oversee the execution of important operational and policy issues while understanding the legal and regulatory demands required from a public company.

	Extensive Knowledge of the Company’s Business We design and manufacture both hardware and software technological solutions for the smart energy market while constantly developing and growing our business. Our director’s commitment to understanding the Company and its business, industry, and strategic objectives is significant for their contribution to our strategic planning and business discussions.

	High Level of Financial Expertise Accurate financial reporting, robust auditing and familiarity with new accounting principles and practices are important for us as a publicly traded company. We, therefore, seek to have a number of directors who qualify as Audit Committee financial experts. We further expect all of our directors to be financially knowledgeable in order to understand and advise on our financial reporting, internal control, and investment activities.

	Broad International Exposure We currently have a presence in 25 countries around the world. Our products have been installed in approximately 140 countries around the world. Due to the global nature of our business, we deem it critical for our directors to be able to provide valuable business and cultural perspective on our international operations.

	Innovation and Technology Our products reflect a focus on innovation and we are continuously searching to improve and enhance the capabilities of our technology departments. It is important for us to have directors who share the desire for technological innovation, who have themselves led technology companies and who want to be a part of leading the path for continuous innovation in the area of smart energy. In light of the importance of protection of infrastructure from security threats including cyber, we look to our board members for their experience in this area.

	Independence For non-employee directors, it is important that our directors are independent under Nasdaq listing standards and other applicable rules and regulations.

The table below summarizes the specific skills and attributes most valued by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board in connection with annual assessment and/or appointment decision-making for each director or nominee listed below. Therefore, the absence of a particular skill for a director does not necessarily mean the director does not possess that attribute.

* SolarEdge has been public since 2015. The Board weighed the potential impact of tenure on the independence of our longest-serving director, Mr. More and determined that Mr. More’s independence from management has not been diminished by his years of service.

Board Composition

The Board conducts regular renewal and refreshment assessments. As part of such assessment, as set forth in our Principles of Corporate Governance (the “Principles”), the Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee seeks to achieve an array of professional and personal backgrounds on the Board. The Board assesses its effectiveness in this regard as part of the annual board evaluation process. The Nominating & Governance Committee regularly reviews the composition of our Board and assesses the skills, backgrounds, perspectives, viewpoints and experiences of our directors with a view towards enhancing the composition of our Board to support the Company’s evolving strategy.

Each of our director nominees has achieved a high level of success in his or her career, including extensive experience in technology companies and venture capital firms, as well as historical knowledge of the Company for those who have served several years on our Board. Based on their experiences, each has been directly involved in the challenges related to setting the strategic direction and managing the financial performance, personnel, and processes of large, complex organizations. Each has had exposure to effective leaders and has developed the ability to judge leadership qualities. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consults with other members of the Board and management in identifying and evaluating candidates for directorship.

Additionally, the Board believes that diversity with respect to tenure is important in order to provide the Company with balanced views and insights from Board members who have a deep acquaintance with the Company’s history as well as a fresh perspective from new Board members.

Directors and Corporate Governance

Board Independence

Under the listing requirements and Nasdaq rules, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. Our Principles provide that an “independent” director is a director who meets the Nasdaq definition of independence. The Principles also provide that, under applicable Nasdaq rules, the members of each of the Audit and Compensation Committees are subject to additional heightened independence criteria applicable to directors serving on these committees. Our Board of Directors undertakes a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director (both generally, and, where applicable, under heightened independence criteria applicable to certain committees) on an annual basis. Based upon information requested from, and provided by, each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board of Directors has determined, based on the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, that each of Messrs. More, Tietz, Gecht, and Almogy and Mses. Atkins and Gross are “independent” under Nasdaq rules. Our Board of Directors also previously determined that Marcel Gani, Dirk Hoke, and Nadav Zafrir, who served as directors until April 8, 2025, June 3, 2025, and October 2, 2025 respectively, were independent for the time they served as directors on the Board. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that all the members of the Audit and Compensation Committees meet the additional, heightened independence criteria applicable to such committee members under the Nasdaq rules.

When evaluating the independence of director nominees, the Board weighs numerous factors, including tenure. Directors with more than 12 years of service are subject to specific considerations to promote an undiminished level of independence. In particular, the Board weighed the potential impact of tenure on the independence of our longest-serving director and Chairperson of the Board, Mr. More. Mr. More provides valuable perspectives and expertise on matters of significance to the Company and is a respected leader in the Board room. The Board concluded that Mr. More is a valued director who fulfills his responsibilities with independent-minded oversight. Mr. More appropriately challenges management, and is reasoned, balanced, and thoughtful in Board deliberations and in communications with management. The Board determined that Mr. More’s independence from management has not been diminished by his years of service.



	24

As described in our Principles, the independent directors meet in executive sessions without management present at every regular Board meeting to promote open discussion among independent directors.

Leadership Structure and Succession Planning

In 2019, we separated the roles of Board Chairperson and CEO. On November 6, 2024, Mr. More was appointed as the Chairperson of our Board of Directors, replacing Mr. Nadav Zafrir who served in this position since 2019. On December 4, 2024, Mr. Nir, who was the Company’s chief marketing officer since June of the same year, was appointed as the Company’s new CEO, replacing Mr. Ronen Faier who acted as an interim CEO, following the resignation of Mr. Zvi Lando, who served in this position since 2019.

●

The Board believes that its current leadership structure serves well the objectives of the Board’s independent oversight of management, the ability of the Board to carry out its roles and responsibilities on behalf of the stockholders, and the Company’s overall corporate governance.

●

The Board also believes that the separation of the Chairperson and CEO roles allows the CEO to focus his time and energy on operating and managing the Company and enables him to leverage the experience and perspectives of the Chairperson of the Board and the other experienced Board members. Among other things, the Chairperson helps guide the Company on strategy. The Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically review the leadership structure and refreshment of the Board to promote continued contribution by the Board to management and to new and creative thought processes.

Principles of Corporate Governance

The Company is committed to robust corporate governance, ethical conduct, sustainability and accountability of our senior executives and board members. Our Principles of Corporate Governance are available under “Corporate Governance” on the investor relations page on our website.

Board Meetings

During 2025, the Board of Directors held 8 meetings. Each director attended at least 87% of the meetings of the Board of Directors held during the period such director served and each of our directors attended 100% of the aggregate of the total number of the meetings held by any of the committees of the Board of Directors on which such director served during such period.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors oversees the Company’s risk management process both directly and through its committees, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Technology and Cyber Committee. The Board oversees a Company-wide approach to risk management, designed to enhance stockholder value, support the achievement of strategic objectives and improve long-term organizational performance. The Board continuously reviews the Company’s progress against its annual strategic plans and determines the appropriate level of risk for the Company generally, assesses the specific risks faced by the Company and reviews the steps taken by management to manage those risks. The Board’s involvement in setting the Company’s business strategy facilitates these assessments and reviews, culminating in the development of a strategy that reflects both the Board’s and management’s consensus as to appropriate levels of risk and the appropriate measures to manage those risks. Pursuant to this structure, risk is assessed throughout the enterprise, focusing on risks arising out of various aspects of the Company’s strategy and the implementation of that strategy, including financial, legal/compliance, operational, health and safety, cyber security, sustainability matters, human capital management and compensation risks. The Board also considers risk when evaluating proposed transactions and other matters presented to the Board, including material acquisitions and financial matters.

Risk Oversight

While the Board maintains the ultimate oversight responsibility for the risk management process, its committees oversee risk in certain specified areas. In particular, the Audit Committee reviews and discusses the Company’s practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Audit Committee also focuses on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls. The Audit Committee receives regular reports from the Company on its internal system of audit and financial controls and enterprise risk information. In addition, the Audit Committee oversees the Company’s compliance program with respect to legal and regulatory requirements, including the Company’s codes of conduct and policies and procedures for monitoring compliance. The Compensation Committee oversees the assessment of the risks related to the Company’s compensation policies and programs applicable to its officers and other employees. Management regularly reports on applicable risks to the relevant committee or the Board, as appropriate, including reports on significant Company projects, with additional review or reporting on risks being conducted as needed or as requested by the Board and its committees.

Sustainability Strategy and Oversight

The Board has delegated the overall oversight for the Company’s sustainability performance, disclosure, strategies, goals and objectives as well as monitoring evolving sustainability risks and opportunities to the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board has delegated the overall oversight of the Company’s human capital management to the Compensation Committee.

Oversight of Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Risks

Cyber security risk is an area of increasing focus for our Board, particularly as an increasingly significant part of our operations rely on digital technologies. As a result, we have implemented a comprehensive cyber security program to assess, identify, and manage risks from cyber security threats that could result in material adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our information systems. This program has been integrated into the Company’s overall risk management framework.



	26

The Board has delegated primary oversight of the Company's risks from cyber security threats to the Technology and Cyber Committee. Our management team, including our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), provides quarterly updates to our Technology and Cyber Committee and annual updates to the full Board regarding our cyber security activities and other developments impacting our digital security. We have established protocols by which certain cyber security incidents are escalated within the Company and, where appropriate, reported to the Board and Technology and Cyber Committee in a timely manner.

For additional information regarding our cybersecurity governance and risk management, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, under the heading “Cybersecurity” in Item 1C.

Furthermore, we have completed a lifecycle analysis for three of our key products, examining the environmental impact of all product life stages. We also strive to achieve near-zero e-waste and minimize the landfill waste of all waste types.

	●	Powering People: Maintaining leading responsible employment practices, upholding human rights and investing in communities. In 2025 we continued to invest in our workforce to support SolarEdge’s business growth, and maintained responsible employment practices, including an enhanced focus on safety and on employee growth and development. Our community engagement program focuses on the advancement of renewable energy for environmental community value; encouraging STEM education and youth innovation; and strengthening a range of populations.

	●	Powering Business: Maintaining and reinforcing ethical conduct throughout our value chain, advancing sustainability, improving the efficiency of our resource consumption and ethical sourcing of raw materials and components.

Below are some examples of our efforts and practices in several sustainability and corporate social responsibility fields:

Climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions

SolarEdge is a market leader in smart and renewable energy solutions. Our products contribute to the global climate change mitigation efforts. Our solutions allow for millions of tonnes in carbon emission reductions, helping governments and organizations reduce their climate impact.

As stated above, we have installed of our own PV systems in three of our different facilities, which will help us reduce our own Scope 2 emissions.

During 2025, our production and R&D sites have continued to implement enhanced energy saving methods, such as automatic shutdowns and/or motion detectors for AC and lighting systems and optimization of HVAC system operation.

(*) Estimated. Assuming all SolarEdge systems shipped by end of 2025 are installed and producing for a full year. See our annual sustainability report for further details on our method for calculating the global GHG savings achieved through use of our products.

Life Cycle Analysis

To date, we have completed the process of life cycle analysis (LCA) research and the subsequent publication of Environmental Product Declarations for three of our key products. The LCA research included an evaluation of environmental performance over the entire life cycle of our products. The entire value chain of our products was examined to study its environmental impact, from material extraction to manufactured product, usage stage and end of life. The LCA results were externally verified and were registered with the International EPD® System. The analysis helps us to better recognize opportunities for environmental impact reduction, including (among else) opportunities for reducing Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions.

Responsible Procurement

We are proactive in increasing ethical conduct, responsible practices, and human right protection within our extensive global supply chain.

Our supplier code of conduct (SCoC) includes detailed requirements on ethics, safety, environment, human rights, fair employment, and others. We have been engaging key suppliers - and requesting that they acknowledge their compliance with the SCoC terms. Most of our key suppliers have committed to the SCoC terms. In 2025, we also conducted on-site audits for three key raw material suppliers in connection with their compliance with the SCoC requirements. We aim to continue expanding these efforts in 2026

The Safety of our People

We believe that the vast majority of accidents and injuries at work are preventable and aim to create a zero-injury culture across our offices and operations. We comply with applicable occupational health and safety regulations and are certified to Occupational Health and Safety Quality Management Standard ISO 45001:2018. Safety performance is reported quarterly to the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, including specific safety incidents analysis, findings, and corrective actions.

Our safety practices include Nominated Safety Officers at key production and R&D sites; a nominated lab electricity supervising engineer for main R&D sites; appointing and training employees as safety trustees; mandatory annual safety training for all employees; job-specific training (for example, proper use of protective equipment, training for working with high-voltage, training for working on rooftops, training for the safe use of machinery/ chemicals/ materials) that is mandatory for all employees in relevant roles; comprehensive safety, fire, and emergency drill programs to provide employees information on emergency procedures; root-cause assessments of incidents; periodic internal and external EHS audits; supplying employees with all necessary PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) according to the identified job-specific risks and all relevant regulations; and maintaining a healthy and ergonomic work environment.

Code of Conduct and Ethical Business Conduct

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our officers and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and those officers and employees responsible for financial reporting. We have also adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors. Our codes of business conduct and ethics are posted on the investor relations section of our website under the “Corporate Governance” tab. We intend to disclose future amendments to our codes of business conduct and ethics, and any waivers of their provisions that we grant to our executive officers and directors, on our website within four business days following the date of the amendment or waiver that require disclosure under the applicable rules.

We operate an annual on-line employee code of conduct training program. In the cases of some production employees who do not have computer access, the training is conducted in on-site group sessions. The training includes emphasis on ”real” work-place scenarios regarding issues such as how to handle harassment and discrimination in the workplace, matters pertaining to potential conflicts of interest, political involvement, and more. The training also re-informs employees regarding the different channels available for reporting potential code violations This annual training program is mandatory for all employees world-wide.



	36

In addition, we have published other related policies on our website, available under the “Corporate Governance page. Our codes of business conduct and ethics provide detail on related issues such as the definition of reasonable and unreasonable gift exchange; avoidance of conflicts regarding financial interests; guidelines for participation in external events; and additional instructions and guidelines related to anti-corruption.

Insider Trading Policy & Anti-Hedging/Pledging Policies

Our Insider Trading Policy governs the purchase, sale and other transactions in our securities by our employees, officers, directors, and other covered persons, as well as the Company. We believe our Policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations and applicable exchange listing standards. Our Insider Trading Policy, among other things, prohibits all non-employee directors, officers, and all other employees of the Company, from engaging in hedging, or other speculative transactions relating to Company shares, including trading in puts or calls in Company securities, short-sales of Company securities, or through the purchase of financial instruments, such as prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds or any transactions that have, or are designed to have, the effect of hedging or offsetting any decrease in the market value of Company securities. Non-employee directors, officers, and all employees of the Company are further prohibited from purchasing the Company securities on margin, or borrowing against any account in which the Company securities are held or otherwise pledging Company securities as collateral for a loan. For additional information, see our Insider Trading Policy filed as Exhibit 19 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2026.

Political Involvement

We respect the diversity of views and beliefs of our employees and encourage them to be active in the civic life of their communities. The Company prohibits any political involvement on its behalf by any of its employees, unless otherwise designated, such as its Global Government Affairs team who engage with governments and policy makers to advocate for policies that are aligned with our business objectives and company values. We do not make any corporate or political contributions. In addition, we endeavor that all Company activities through trade unions and/or industry associations are in support of the Company’s public policy positions on all issues. Through active participation and leadership, the Company can educate and influence associations and coalitions in support of our policy positions.

Human Capital Development

We believe that our employees are our most important asset and that our success depends on our ability to attract and retain outstanding employees who can support our ongoing business activities and innovation efforts. We aim to be inclusive in our hiring practices focusing on the best talent for the role in accordance with equal opportunity employment laws.

We aim to provide our employees with advanced professional and development skills so that they can perform effectively in their roles and build their capabilities and career prospects for the future. We maintain leadership programs for managers and team leaders and deliver advanced professional training for sales, research and development and other functional teams as part of our extensive training program each year. Furthermore, we offer educational learning platforms on a variety of subjects for the professional and personal development and advancement of our workforce.

We also have a comprehensive talent management review process to develop future leaders and provide effective succession planning. The Company conducts annual performance and talent management reviews to determine career growth opportunities and facilitate organizational succession planning.

We aim to provide our employees with competitive salaries and benefits that enable them to achieve a good quality of life and plan for their futures. Our benefits differ according to local norms and market preferences but typically include all salary and social benefits required by local law (including retirement saving programs, paid vacation and sick leave) and additional benefits that go beyond legal requirements in local markets.

Community Engagement

We believe that healthy and vibrant communities are the foundation of sustainable societies and sustainable businesses. Our community engagement activities are focused on the following three pillars: Advancing education on renewable energy and sustainability; Promoting Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education; and Enhancing a range of populations. In 2025, the Company donated $150,870 to various charitable causes that align with these pillars.

In 2020, in honor and memory of Mr. Guy Sella, SolarEdge’s former Chief Executive Officer, Chairperson and Co-Founder, we announced a commitment of $1,000,000 to be invested in a joint SolarEdge-Technion educational and technological project. The Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Israel’s leading technical research university, is committed to matching these funds which will be contributed over ten years following said commitment. The Guy Sella Memorial Project combines teaching, research, and outreach activities that extend to high school, undergraduate, and graduate students, including teaching labs which will be established and named after Guy Sella, annual graduate student research fellowships, biennial national energy student hackathons, and visits to the energy center and labs for high school students.

In addition to the financial donations, the Company partnered with Atid Raziel, a youth village to install an off-grid solar system to power a low emission youth-run community café. Also, we have facilitated ways for our employees to engage in different volunteering activities organized by the Company throughout the year. A prominent example of these volunteering activities is our flagship educational program, ‘EdgeUcate’. The EdgeUcate program aims to raise awareness and educate children from a young age on sustainability practices and solar energy. Age-appropriate learning kits were developed in collaboration with education consultants and content writers for use in the classroom by our employees. Educational kits were designed for students from kindergarten through 12th grade. Among else, the program has been taught to children with disabilities, children from underserved communities, and from a range of populations. The ‘EdgeUcate’ program is operated in multiple global SolarEdge regions of activity, including Israel, the U.S., South Korea, France, Poland, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, and Australia.

Proposal No. 3
Say-On-Pay

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to vote, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement (referred to as a “Say-on-Pay” vote). As described below in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement, the Compensation Committee’s goals in setting executive compensation are to motivate our executives to maximize stockholder value, provide compensation that varies based on performance, and attract and retain managerial talent, without promoting unreasonable risk-taking. To achieve these goals, our executive compensation structure emphasizes performance-based compensation, including annual incentive compensation and stock-based awards.

We urge stockholders to read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” below, which describes in more detail how our executive compensation policies and procedures operate and are designed to achieve our compensation objectives, as well as the Summary Compensation Table and other related compensation tables and narrative following the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, which provide detailed information on the compensation of our named executive officers. The Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee believe that the policies and procedures articulated in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” are effective in achieving our goals and that the compensation of our named executive officers reported in this Proxy Statement reflects and supports these compensation policies and procedures.

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, and as a matter of good corporate governance, stockholders will be asked at the Annual Meeting to approve the following advisory resolution:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of the Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table and the related compensation tables, notes and narrative in the Proxy Statement for the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

This advisory Say-on-Pay vote is non-binding; however, our Board of Directors and Compensation Committee will review and consider the voting results carefully when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation programs.

The Board of Director currently has a policy of providing for annual “Say-on-Pay” advisory votes. After this 2026 Annual Meeting, our next Say-on-Pay vote is expected to occur at our 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the approval of our executive compensation on an advisory basis.

Proposal No. 4
Approval of Amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to Limit the Liability of Certain Officers as Permitted by Law

Our Board of Directors has unanimously adopted and declared advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and resolved to recommend to the Company’s stockholders that they approve and adopt, an amendment to Article X of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Company (the “Certificate”) to provide for the elimination of monetary liability of certain officers of the company in certain limited circumstances (the “Proposed Amendment”). The current exculpation protections available to the directors remain unchanged as a result of the Proposed Amendment. The following description is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Appendix B to this proxy statement, which marks those changes specifically.²

Purpose and Effect of the Proposed Amendment

Pursuant to and consistent with Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), Article X of the Certificate already eliminates the monetary liability of directors in accordance with the DGCL. Effective August 1, 2022, Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL was amended to permit companies to include in their certificates of incorporation limitations of monetary liability of certain officers (such officers from time to time specified in Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the “covered officers”). Consistent with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the Proposed Amendment would only permit limiting the liability of covered officers for breaches of the fiduciary duty of care for direct claims. Like the provision limiting the liability of directors, the Proposed Amendment does not permit the elimination of liability of covered officers for:

●

any breach of the duty of loyalty to the company or its stockholders;

●

any acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; or

●

any transaction from which the officer derived an improper personal benefit.

² Additions to the Certificate are indicated by underlining, in blue.



	42

In addition, the Proposed Amendment does not permit the limitation of liability of certain claims brought by the Company itself and claims brought by stockholders in the name of the Company, such as derivative claims. These limitations on exculpation of covered officers are incorporated into Article X by specifically providing that “[t]o the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as the same exists or as may hereafter be amended, [a] director or officer of the corporation shall not be liable to the corporation or its stockholders monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty as a director or officer” (emphasis added). Notwithstanding the foregoing, consistent with the language for exculpation of directors currently included in Article X of the Certificate, the Proposed Amendment also provides that if, at any time after it becomes effective, the DGCL is amended to authorize any further elimination or limitation of the personal liability of a corporation’s officers (including any change in the roles deemed to be covered officers for purposes of Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL), then such liability shall automatically be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended, with respect to the Company’s covered officers (including with respect to any role newly deemed to be a covered officer for purposes of Section 102(b)(7)).

Our Board of Directors believes that it is important to extend exculpation protection to covered officers, to the fullest extent permitted by DGCL, in order to better position the company to attract and retain qualified and experienced officers. In the absence of such protection, such individuals might be deterred from serving as officers, due to exposure to personal liability and the risk of incurring substantial expense in defending lawsuits, regardless of merit. The nature of covered officers’ roles often requires them to make decisions on crucial matters, frequently in response to time-sensitive opportunities and challenges, which can create substantial risk of lawsuits that seek to impose liability with the benefit of hindsight. Aligning the protections available to the Company’s covered officers with those available to the Company’s directors (which provides exculpation to the fullest extent such protections are available under the DGCL, as it exists now or may be amended in the future) would empower covered officers to exercise their business judgment in furtherance of stockholder interests without the potential for distraction posed by the risk of personal liability.

Effectiveness

The Company’s covered officers will receive the protections from liability afforded by the Proposed Amendment effective upon the company filing the Certificate of Amendment setting forth the Proposed Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State. In addition, if the stockholders approve the Proposed Amendment and the Certificate of Amendment setting forth the Proposed Amendment is filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, we intend to file a Restated Certificate of Incorporation to integrate the Certificate and the Proposed Amendment (if approved) into a single document. Our Board of Directors reserves the right to elect to abandon the Proposed Amendment at any time before it becomes effective even if it is approved by the stockholders. If the Board were to exercise such discretion, we will publicly disclose that fact, and our covered officers will not be subject to the foregoing exculpation protections. If our stockholders do not approve the Proposed Amendment, Article X will remain unchanged, our covered officers will not be entitled to exculpation under the DGCL, and a Certificate of Amendment setting forth the Proposed Amendment will not be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State.

Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the Amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to Limit the Liability of Certain Officers as Permitted by Law.

Compensation Strategy

The main objectives of our executive pay-for-performance compensation program are to:

●

promote stockholder interests by aligning compensation with our business objectives, including by introducing long term incentives with long term performance goals;

●

provide competitive compensation that varies based on performance and drives employee performance and engagement; and

●

attract and retain managerial talent, without promoting unreasonable risk-taking.

These guiding principles apply to all of our executive pay practices discussed. Achievement of the minimum financial parameters set forth in our annual cash incentive compensation plan is required before any compensation is payable under the plan. Specifically, no bonus would have been payable under the 2025 Executive Bonus Plan had the Company not reached a minimum of $1 billion in revenues for 2025.

Compensation Objectives and Guiding Principles

The primary objectives of our senior executive compensation program are as follows:

●

Pay for Performance: During 2025, our compensation programs furthered our pay for performance philosophy by aligning the compensation of our NEOs with the company’s performance.
The Compensation Committee determined two categories of goals that would constitute 100% of each NEO’s 2025 annual cash incentive plan opportunity:
Financial goals – Revenues, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss) and Free Cash Flow.
Business Strategic goals – quality, new products introduction and manufacturing KPIs.

•

The 2025 bonus was earned at 86.2% of target.

•

Additionally, the 2023 PSUs, based on performance over the three-year period from 2023 to 2025, was not earned as our relative total stockholder return (TSR) performance was below the minimum threshold. With respect to the 2024 PSUs, our TSR performance is measured from 2024 to 2026, and was tracking to be earned at 0% of target as of December 31, 2025.

●

Alignment of Interests: We seek to align the interests of our senior executives with those of our stockholders through a heavy emphasis on equity-based awards and robust stock ownership guidelines. In 2025, 50% of each NEO’s annual equity award was granted in the form of PSUs tied to achievement of stock price targets during a three-year performance period, with a minimum two-year time-vesting requirement from the date of grant for any PSUs earned during the first two years after grant The remaining 50% of each NEO’s annual equity award was granted in the form of time-based RSUs which vest over four-years.

●

Attraction, Motivation, and Retention of Talent: Our senior executive compensation programs are designed to help us attract, motivate, and retain key management talent who drive profitability and the creation of stockholder value.

Compensation Governance Highlights

In addition to aligning pay with performance of the Company, our executive compensation program is intended to be consistent with corporate governance best practices. This is demonstrated by the following elements in our executive officer compensation arrangements:

●

robust stock ownership and holding guidelines for executive officers and directors;

●

prohibition applicable to all directors and employees against engaging in any hedging or pledging transactions or comparable transactions;

●

use of objective performance criteria in our incentive plans;

●

advice from independent compensation consultants retained by the Compensation Committee;

●

no specific retirement benefit plans designed solely for senior executives or entitlements such as executive benefits and perquisites, tax gross-ups, etc.; and

●

a portion of each NEO’s annual equity award is subject to stock price hurdles requiring substantial improvement in our stock price performance from the day of grant.

2025 Total Target Compensation

For 2025, approximately 87% of Mr. Nir’s (our CEO) target total direct compensation and 77% of the target total direct compensation, on average, for our other NEOs who were serving at the beginning of the year (Mr. Porat, Mr. Bechor and Mr. Huber) was “at-risk”, meaning that it was contingent upon the achievement performance goals or subject to time-based vesting requirements. Target total direct compensation for this purpose consists of base salary, target annual incentive opportunity and target annual long-term equity incentive opportunity, and it does not include any sign-on or retention awards.
