In its latest earnings report, Sunworks Inc reported $0.03 earnings per share, lower than the consensus estimate of $0.05 earnings per share. The company raked in $31.50 million during the second quarter, outpacing estimates at $11 million, primarily as a result of the inclusion of Elite Solar’s operations on top of significant year-over-year organic sales growth in the existing business.

In line with this, the company has made investments in its sales organization and operational infrastructure while working to reduce costs and improving the quality of their service.

Management has upgraded its full-year outlook by 10%, projecting revenues to come in around $110-115 million.
