Reg CF is Common Stock, while Reg D is Preferred.The Origin StoryIt all started in the Amazon Rainforest…Why Are We Raising Money?\u0026nbsp;This is a pivotal moment in the history of the U.S. solar industry and an immediate opportunity for Powur to rapidly gain market share through consolidation.\u0026nbsp; As many of our competitors have struggled to adapt to high interest rates, and changing net-metering policies… We are THRIVING.\u0026nbsp; We have shown the resiliency of our distributed labor model and our ability to preserve cash even with substantial volume swings, changing policies, and challenging macroeconomic cycles.\u0026nbsp; As many of our competitors have gone bankrupt or been forced to slow down… we are speeding up.\u0026nbsp;The leading companies entering the next phase of our industry's growth cycle will be positioned to consolidate market share and emerge as the winners of the mainstream adoption phase of Residential Solar \u0026amp; Energy Storage in America.\u0026nbsp; Solar adoption today stands at 4%, and significantly less for Energy Storage.\u0026nbsp; This market is still in its earliest stages, yet the future is clear;\u0026nbsp;more Solar + Storage than today.\u0026nbsp; This is the time for Powur and our investors to double down. Forward-looking projections are not guaranteedThe market for Residential Solar + Storage in America is currently between a $17B - $20B annual revenue opportunity, with an annual CAGR expected between 15-19% until 2030.\u0026nbsp; Powur is working to position itself to grow from hundreds of millions in revenue annually to billions in revenue annually over the next 5-10 years. \u0026nbsp;This is the moment to aggressively pursue the 10x opportunities to grow our revenue, consolidate market share, and build the next transformational capabilities of our platform that will further differentiate Powur in the marketplace.\u0026nbsp;We’re raising money to: 1) Grow Enterprise 10x As you will see, we believe we are at the forefront of a brand new model enabling solar contractors to scale with Powur.\u0026nbsp; This is an untapped opportunity that is perfectly timed as solar contractors struggle with tighter credit lines for equipment, less access to financing, and an increasingly complex market they are forced to navigate.\u0026nbsp; We have a vision to service the long tail of solar contractors and massively expand the customer acquisition \u0026amp; fulfillment capabilities of the Powur Platform.2) Grow Network Commitment\u0026nbsp;Since day 1, Powur has been about THE CROWD.\u0026nbsp; We are owned by thousands of investors who represent our customers, sellers, installers, employees, vendors, partners, close business contacts, and the networks that bind us all.\u0026nbsp; Together, the crowd makes up almost 50% of Powur’s cap table, and is poised to massively benefit from the company's continued success.\u0026nbsp; We have always believed it is a strategic advantage to have our ecosystem committed to the success of Powur.\u0026nbsp;Right now there is a huge opportunity for investors to take advantage of the macroeconomic cycle and buy ownership in Powur at significantly discounted rates from our 2021 fundraise.\u0026nbsp; We believe this will lead to substantially greater upside for our investors, sellers, installers, and teammates to support Powur growing 10x and having a massively successful exit* in the next bull cycle.* Forward-looking projections are not guaranteedOur Growth Speaks for ItselfIn 2019, we revolutionized the solar industry with the introduction of our COGS pricing model, and a platform designed specifically to serve the top individual solar sales professionals.\u0026nbsp; We cut out the middleman, we gave solar sales professionals industry leading commissions, access to financing and equipment, and all the tools they needed to acquire customers.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;Meet Our Sellers:\u0026nbsp;This resulted in us building the largest active user base of solar sales professionals in the U.S and Powur Revenue skyrocketing.This growth led to Powur becoming one of America’s most recognizable \u0026amp; fastest growing companies in solar 4 years in a row.\u0026nbsp;In 2021, we raised $8.5M on WeFunder and from our network of private investors, with the goal of taking the company public within 2-3 years.\u0026nbsp; We did EXACTLY what we set out to do.\u0026nbsp; We grew revenue over 70% from 2021 to 2022, and at the end of 22’ Powur began talks with the leading investment banks in the country about an IPO or Pre-IPO Fundraise.\u0026nbsp;By early 2023, we had successfully narrowed which investment banks we wanted to work with to represent Powur, and it was clear that a large late stage capital investment prior to an IPO was the right path to begin the process.\u0026nbsp; At the time, Powur was valued between $450-600M~ and we were planning to raise $100M-$150M in Q4 23’.\u0026nbsp; Below is a snapshot of a portion of their analysis.What happened next is one of the greatest lessons in market timing we will probably receive in our lifetime.\u0026nbsp; We are now acutely aware of how to time market cycles, what to be on the lookout for, and when to take advantage of the open windows.\u0026nbsp;Navigating Macro ChallengesThe solar industry has been confronted with two primary challenges in the last 18 months:\u0026nbsp;Rapidly Increasing Interest Rates\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp; Changing Net Metering Policies1. Interest RatesThe solar industry proved to be disproportionately tied to FED interest rates over a majority of industries.\u0026nbsp; At the end of 2022, 97% of solar systems Powur sold were financed through consumer loans.\u0026nbsp; Since our primary competitor is the utility, the monthly loan payment of a solar system compared to the monthly payment of a utility bill is the greatest indicator of consumer demand for our products.\u0026nbsp; The greater the positive delta between our monthly payment for solar vs the utility, the more competitive our product is.\u0026nbsp; As interest rates rose faster than any time in 40 years, and to 23 year highs, consumers put the brakes on financing as the positive delta shrunk.\u0026nbsp; This led to a sudden reversal in demand.\u0026nbsp; Given inverters are required on every solar system installed, the revenues of Enphase and Solaredge (two largest U.S. inverter manufacturers) are a good proxy into U.S. demand trends.\u0026nbsp;2. Net Metering\u0026nbsp;In addition to the impact of Interest Rates, the two largest residential solar markets in the country (CA \u0026amp; TX) both had substantial changes to net-metering policy.\u0026nbsp; Effectively, these states no longer incent customers to share power from their solar systems with the grid.\u0026nbsp; Customers in both states must install Energy Storage to store the excess power they produce from their solar systems, and consume that power in the evening when the systems aren’t producing.\u0026nbsp; Of course, this change had a dramatic impact on demand in both markets as consumers and installers learned to adapt.The abrupt changes in demand for U.S solar have caused 4 of the top 10 Residential Solar providers to declare bankruptcy or exit Residential Installations within the last 18 months (Sunpower, ADT, Titan, \u0026amp; Palmetto).\u0026nbsp; Ultimately this is proving to be an ENORMOUS opportunity for Powur.\u0026nbsp;While most companies in the solar industry hung on for dear life during this period, Powur is in an entirely different camp. We're not just showing our business model can thrive during the boom times,\u0026nbsp;we're proving we are a hyper efficient, scalable company, that when things get tough are just as resilient. We've been able to preserve an enormous amount of our cash, entering Q3 2024 with $17 million in liquid assets and cash, which makes us one of the financially strongest privately held companies in all of U.S. residential solar.Powur Entering Q3 With $17M in Cash + Cash Equivalents:Not only are we one of the financially strongest U.S. solar companies, we have CONTINUED to innovate our product offering, refine our capabilities, and rapidly adjust to changing market conditions.\u0026nbsp;As interest rates rose rapidly, companies were forced to adopt leasing solutions (TPO) to maintain demand.\u0026nbsp; This was a huge shift for Powur as we sold virtually no leases prior to the rise in rates.As net metering policies changed, the amount of energy storage attached to every system Powur sells skyrocketed. Powur is now one of the nation's leading platforms selling and installing residential energy storage systems, and we expect storage attach rates to keep growing. It Gets BetterWe proved our ability to manage cash, and adapt to changing market conditions.\u0026nbsp; But this market transition is about more than just adapting, the real opportunity is to utilize changing market conditions to improve the fundamental unit economics.\u0026nbsp;We expect average revenue per project is going to continue to climb as we are seeing substantial increases in storage attachment rates.\u0026nbsp; We forecast attach rates to climb as high as 50% in 2025.\u0026nbsp; In fact, Powur Q3 sales are trending close to 50% already.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;Increasing storage attachment rates are driving Powur's ability to earn more margin, as revenue and profit increase on solar systems paired with energy storage. We believe the shift to a Solar + Storage future is going to be an economic boom for Powur.\u0026nbsp; We are seeing average revenue per project increase 15% YoY and our gross profit per project increase 25% YoY.\u0026nbsp; As demand continues to climb, Powur is going to make substantially more money on every project we install, driving material gains in our core unit economics.\u0026nbsp; We believe Powur will be more valuable as a $250M annual run rate company than we were at $350M.\u0026nbsp;In addition, we have used this time to become HYPER efficient.\u0026nbsp; Our revenue per employee metrics are off the chart compared to our competition:The future for Powur is clear.\u0026nbsp; While it isn't guaranteed, we believe we will be making more money per sale, more profit per sale, and with an even more efficient operating model that will drive substantial operating leverage as revenues surpass former all-time highs.\u0026nbsp; This is exciting as heck for our investment community, and Powur is enormously grateful for the experiences we have gone through over the last 18 months helping to drive these outcomes.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;Demand Forecast All signs are pointing towards a massive growth year for Powur in 2025.\u0026nbsp; We are currently at PEAK interest rates, with consumers knowing that rate reductions are around the corner.\u0026nbsp; This is the hardest time to sell high ticket consumer financing.\u0026nbsp; But that is NOT stopping Powur…We are seeing ENORMOUS growth in California.\u0026nbsp; California sales have grown 93% QoQ, while at peak interest rates, showing that consumers are absolutely fed up with sky high utility bills, and that Powur is nailing the new products, fulfillment, and value proposition that will lead to huge growth in CA post net metering.\u0026nbsp; We now have the blueprint to follow for every state when the time comes to transition to Solar + Storage, and we will welcome the increased revenue and per project profit!\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;Impact of Fed Rate CutsWhat is most exciting is that 100% of Q3 growth in demand is taking place at peak interest rates.\u0026nbsp; The FED is publicly declaring it is time to begin an interest rate reduction cycle, and every single rate reduction will make our product more competitive against utilities.\u0026nbsp; Not only will rate reductions boost demand further, they will likely lead to an increase in solar company valuations and pave the way for the next Late Stage open capital window for Powur (not guaranteed).\u0026nbsp;Powur Financial Forecast\u0026nbsp;We have developed three financial models showing our path forward, each with a corresponding set of drivers.\u0026nbsp; As you will see, we are VALIDATING in real time the assumptions that are driving our upside scenario.\u0026nbsp; What is clear is that there is massive upside growth potential for Powur in 2025 and beyond, that can make our company worth substantially more than it is today. Enterprise: The Next 10x Growth Opportunity\u0026nbsp;We have saved the best for last.\u0026nbsp; Powur is currently on the cusp of introducing a revolutionary new model for the Solar + Storage industry; our enterprise installer program.\u0026nbsp;We are taking the sales enablement and project fulfillment capabilities of our platform and opening those capabilities to local and regional installers to grow their businesses.\u0026nbsp; This shift from Powur to direct seller to Powur to Enterprise is a massive 10x growth opportunity.\u0026nbsp; The long tail of residential solar contractors represents 65% of the total market, and we are the ONLY residential sales enablement and fulfillment platform servicing this segment.Total Residential Market Share in 2022:Validation for 2025 Upside ScenarioWe just signed our first two exclusive enterprise contracts in company history that we believe will earn substantial revenues over the next 3 years (not guaranteed).\u0026nbsp; Meet Our Newest Exclusive Enterprise Partners:\u0026nbsp;These two exclusive contracts represent over $350M in potential revenue for Powur over the next 36 months, if both companies achieve their minimum performance targets.\u0026nbsp; This is an extremely positive sign Powur can achieve our upside financial forecast.\u0026nbsp; We have dozens of other opportunities like this, and believe Powur could sign 10-15 more of these multi-hundred million dollar exclusive agreements with top solar contractors across the country.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;The time for the Powur Platform to partner exclusively with the best local and regional EPC’s, to join forces, and create more value together, is here.\u0026nbsp; The capital invested in this offering will go to an enterprise product development team that will accentuate our advantages serving this market and build a competitive moat so others never catch us.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;Why Invest NowWe believe Powur has a direct line of sight into our next 10x growth opportunities. We've proven we can scale. We've proven that, even during the tough times, we can improve the fundamentals of our business, increasing average revenue per project, increasing gross profit per project, restructuring to maximize efficiency, and continuing to be one of the financially strongest companies in the industry.\u0026nbsp;Now it is time to get more aggressive as greater demand comes back, and as Powur rolls out our Enterprise platform capabilities directly to larger contractors to leverage. We see a path to become one of the top 3 residential solar companies in the world within the next 24-36 months. And we're offering investors a chance to buy into the company at the bottom of this cycle, right before interest rates start getting lower, right before demand increases substantially, and right before valuations start going through the roof again.\u0026nbsp;We're already seeing valuations increasing dramatically for the leading publicly traded solar companies. Sunrun is nearing $5 billion, while Sunnova market cap has grown over 100% from their Q2 low.All indications are lined up for 2025 to be a big growth year for the industry. And we think we're going to outperform that growth by an order of magnitude. Powur is poised to not only grow to $250 million of revenue in 2025, but to do so at significantly higher margins. While we are committed to making these projections a reality, forward-looking\u0026nbsp;projections\u0026nbsp;cannot\u0026nbsp;be\u0026nbsp;guaranteed.Powur ValuationWe're offering investors a chance to buy into Powur at a $100 million valuation, when three years ago we sold equity at a $225 million valuation, and arguably we are better and more positioned to capture a larger piece of this market in every way.\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;This is a significant opportunity for any investor looking to take advantage of the macro cycle.Powur has never been greedy with our equity or valuation.\u0026nbsp; We believe our value is priced conservatively, as we genuinely want to help create REAL WEALTH for our community, and the people who have believed in us, supported us, and contributed to our success.\u0026nbsp; This current offering from Powur represents our desire to give everyone in our community even greater upside potential as we embark on the most exciting phase of the company's journey yet.Road To IPO\u0026nbsp;Powur is dead serious about our ambitions to become a publicly traded company.\u0026nbsp; We began the process in Q1 23, and missed the market window.\u0026nbsp; This was a substantial experiential lesson and we now know you must be fully prepared to take advantage of market cycles.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;We are remaining in constant contact with our investment banking partners, staying lock sync on the right moment for Powur to strike.\u0026nbsp; As soon as we have visibility to the revenue, growth, and valuation targets that will empower a massively successful funding event… we believe we will be ready.\u0026nbsp; It is our belief that the market window will start to open again in 2H 25’, and our intention is by Q1 26’ Powur can execute a Pre-IPO fundraise.\u0026nbsp; The purpose of this raise will be to find the right institutional investor to anchor us through the IPO process, to invest in the next major opportunity for the Powur business model, which may be to own deeper aspects of the solar value chain (I am restricted by how much I can share), and to open up a liquidity opportunity for current investors by allowing secondary sale of shares during this fundraise.\u0026nbsp;A successful late-stage funding for Powur would start the clock on our road to IPO.\u0026nbsp; And providing the company continues to execute on its goals post the Pre-IPO fundraise, our target would be to complete the IPO in 24 months or less from the fundraise (not guaranteed).\u0026nbsp;Longer Term\u0026nbsp;While it’s important for investors to understand the short term roadmap, I do not consider the next 3 years to be Powur’s biggest opportunity.\u0026nbsp; Given what Powur has been able to accomplish in the last 10 years… it’s remarkable to think where the company could be 10 years from today. \u0026nbsp;It is my goal to create “Vision Holders”... those that see the long term vision of Powur and are interested in supporting the company to continue to climb to new heights.\u0026nbsp;How many new products could Powur introduce on its platform?\u0026nbsp;How many verticals could Powur enter with its current enterprise contractor model?\u0026nbsp;What additional geographies could Powur expand into? What is the potential for total individual sales users on Powur’s platform?What is the potential for total enterprise users on Powur’s platform?\u0026nbsp;What are the adjacent partnership opportunities across other industries, verticals, or companies which Powur’s products and platform might be synergistic with?\u0026nbsp;Bill Gates Famously said… “You overestimate what you can do in one year, and underestimate what you can do in 10.”\u0026nbsp;Once we nail it in the U.S., we will expand the model internationally.\u0026nbsp; The truth is, the opportunity for Powur over the next few decades could be wildly bigger than anything the current stakeholders can even imagine.\u0026nbsp; I hope to be around 20-30 years from today, continuing to bring this vision into reality.\u0026nbsp;Invest Today\u0026nbsp;By investing in Powur today, you’re not only buying into a company that’s poised for explosive growth, but you’re also joining a movement that’s enabling society’s transition to sustainable energy.\u0026nbsp;Join us as a vision holder. Help us build the next phase of Powur’s platform, as we attempt to scale from $1 billion to $10 billion in revenue over the next decade. Together, we’ll leave our mark on this industry, create lasting impact, and build a legacy we can all be proud of.Jonathan BuddPowur CEO \u0026amp; FounderAppendices:Appendix A - Investors FAQsAppendix B - Understanding the Competition: How Powur Stands ApartAppendix C - Powur is Build for Scale: Meet Our 3 Proprietary Software Platforms","location":"Carlsbad, CA","website":"https://powur.com/","total_amount_raised":4214683,"total_investors":2265,"is_funded":true,"is_active":true,"quality_score":5,"related_urls":["https://wefunder.com/powur","https://powur.com/"]},"media":{"share_image_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/header_media_photo/15777/xxl_blob.jpg","logo_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/logo/15777/large_cropped_powur-team.jpg","header_media_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/header_media_photo/15777/standard_blob.jpg","cover_photo_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/header_media_photo/15777/standard_blob.jpg","profile_video_url":"https://wefunder.wistia.com/medias/9s2qbyb5fp"},"links":{"company_url":"https://powur.com/"},"highlights":[{"id":62781,"name":"venture_backed","url":"venturebacked","presentable_name":"VC-Backed","description":"Raised $250K or more from a venture firm","image_url":"https://uploads.wefunder.com/2021/profile-highlights-check.svg"}],"quick_facts":[{"index":1,"claim_id":"claim-fact-1","value":"100% virtual, residential solar \u0026amp; storage company in the cloud."},{"index":2,"claim_id":"claim-fact-2","value":"Achieved over $1.1 billion in total revenue, demonstrating a scaled platform."},{"index":3,"claim_id":"claim-fact-3","value":"$359M in revenue for 2023."},{"index":4,"claim_id":"claim-fact-4","value":"Strong Balance Sheet: $17M Cash \u0026amp; Cash Equivalents."},{"index":5,"claim_id":"claim-fact-5","value":"Over 4,500 active platform users."},{"index":6,"claim_id":"claim-fact-6","value":"120 active solar contractors on platform servicing 22 states."},{"index":7,"claim_id":"claim-fact-7","value":"Grew revenue per project 15% YoY to $41,500"},{"index":8,"claim_id":"claim-fact-8","value":"Grew Gross Profit After Commissions 25% YoY from 12.2% to 15.3%!"}],"team":[{"id":1816255,"entity_id":"wefunder:company_role:1816255","user_entity_id":"wefunder:user:91774","role":"founder","name":"Jonathan Budd","title":"Founder \u0026 Chief Executive Officer","bio":"Jonathan is the founder of Powur PBC, one of the nation's leading solar \u0026amp; energy storage companies.

We have searched and attempted to hire based on our diversity goals... but the fact of the matter is we have not been successful finding the right qualified candidates for the positions we needed in the time frame we needed them. The company has been in incredibly high growth mode, and we've needed help urgently to avoid potential breakdowns to our customer experience. So it's not for lack of effort, we've just had to prioritize hiring people to fill the immediate gaps and there is a real lack of Women executives in solar. Would love to see A WHOLE LOT MORE!! 2) Thank god we found Cami! Cami Boehme is our new Chief Marketing Officer who is starting July 15th, and I can't wait for her perspective to join the team. 3) The company is actually incredibly diverse. It's kind of crazy actually. Our field consultants are virtually every walk of life, from young too old and every nationality. And our operations managers, project managers, and majority of our 130 employees are 50/50 woman/men and from all sorts of backgrounds. So, the company has a lot of diversity in it. 4) Up to this point, performance hasn't been impacted. We've continued to perform very well and plan on performing very well and incorporating as many diverse perspectives as possible into what we do. The bottom line is that we are an organization that measures results, holds ourselves accountable to results, produces results, and is driven by our vision/mission. I'm certain we'll continue to do so and will keep getting more and more diverse in every way.","author_name":"Jonathan Budd","votes":6,"created_at":"2021-06-21T17:37:38Z"}]},{"id":307000,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:307000","question":"I’m curious how you plan to make it up to your original investors who lost more than half of their money on paper when the decision was made to water down the value of our shares with the newest round of fundraising?

Nothing wrong with it, as everyone has his own view on MLMs. However, I’ve been through your pitch many times and didn’t find any mentions of it. So would you please provide some insights on that? Are you adopting an MLM scheme? If so, would you please clarify if your commission-only sales reps have to pay to join the scheme?

I would not classify Powur as utilizing an MLM model simply because the majority of companies who are classified MLM primarily focus on recruiting as the basis of the model. Powur consultants primarily focus on selling solar. We are very unique in the sense that an individual can join our platform, study with a mentor to sell solar, and be earning a full time income (if they are successful selling solar) from 1-2 sales per month. Our commissions are as competitive as real estate industry, yet it's typically easier to find a homeowner to go solar than someone looking to sell their home. Part of our differentiated growth model is incentivizing our consultants to refer other sales professionals to the platform. However I would classify this more as affiliate income rather than MLM. It's not how 99% of our consultants earn income, it's just a bonus for referring the best sales professionals they know to also join the platform, and it works. We add about 500 new consultants to the platform every month through this referral incentive. As total active consultants grows, we fully expect this number to grow as well. Hope this helps clarify for you.","author_name":"Jonathan Budd","votes":3,"created_at":"2021-08-17T14:31:35Z"}]},{"id":274969,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:274969","question":"Does this company EVER plan to IPO?","author_name":"Josh S","votes":3,"created_at":"2024-01-29T19:16:43Z","canonical_url":"https://wefunder.com/powur#question-274969","answers":[]},{"id":158507,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:158507","question":"so, if i invest, what do i get, stock?","author_name":"Barry Miller","votes":3,"created_at":"2021-07-16T19:21:25Z","canonical_url":"https://wefunder.com/powur#question-158507","answers":[{"id":164195,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:164195","answer":"Yes sir Barry, you'll receive common shares in Powur PBC!","author_name":"Michael Lindmark","votes":1,"created_at":"2021-08-18T02:18:47Z"}]},{"id":155377,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:155377","question":"Very impressive presentation and results to date.
