財務業績：
Polaris has recorded an increase in power production leading to a rise in revenue from $62.6 million to $78.5 million.
Earnings attributable to owners significantly increased from $2.5 million to $11.7 million, driven by higher operating margins and deferred tax benefit.
Adjusted EBITDA jumped from $44.9 million to $57.7 million, reflecting an improvement in operating margins.
The company exhibited better cash management, balancing increased operating cash generation with reduced cash use in investment activities.
Polaris will be paying out a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share on February 23rd and maintained its target for a 50% payout ratio.
北極星的發電量有所增加，導致收入從6,260萬美元增加到7,850萬美元。
歸屬於所有者的收益從250萬美元大幅增加到1170萬美元，這得益於更高的營業利潤率和遞延稅收優惠。
調整後的息稅折舊攤銷前利潤從4,490萬美元躍升至5,770萬美元，反映了營業利潤率的提高。
該公司表現出更好的現金管理，平衡了運營現金產生的增加和投資活動中現金使用的減少。
北極星將於2月23日派發每股0.15美元的季度股息，並維持其派息率爲50％的目標。
Business Progress:
業務進展：
Power production increase was due to better hydrology conditions in Peru, consistent production in Nicaragua, and greater water availability in Ecuador.
Though rainfall affected output at the Canoa I facility in the Dominican Republic, the company managed to raise overall production.
The construction of Vista Hermosa Solar Park in Panama reflects the growth in Polaris's investment in the region.
The company is actively pursuing optimization at Canoa I via new panel installations, expecting to complete this by July, with positive impacts anticipated in Q3 and full results in Q4.
Polaris is progressing towards its goal of solar storage, while also looking into the repurposing of old panels at Canoa.
Two notable acquisitions are close to completion, promising to strengthen the cash position. The storage project in the Dominican Republic is performing beyond estimations.
Polaris aims to reduce the net debt to EBITDA ratio down to 2% by year-end based on current amortization schedules.
電力產量的增加是由於秘魯的水文條件改善、尼加拉瓜的持續生產以及厄瓜多爾的水供應增加。
儘管降雨影響了多米尼加共和國Canoa I工廠的產量，但該公司設法提高了總產量。
巴拿馬Vista Hermosa太陽能公園的建設反映了北極星在該地區投資的增長。
該公司正在通過安裝新的面板積極尋求Canoa I的優化，預計將在7月之前完成這項工作，預計將在第三季度產生積極影響，在第四季度取得全部業績。
北極星正在朝着其太陽能儲能目標邁進，同時也在考慮重新利用卡諾阿的舊電池板。
兩項重大收購已接近完成，有望加強現金狀況。多米尼加共和國的存儲項目的表現超出了預期。
北極星的目標是根據目前的攤銷計劃，到年底將淨負債與息稅折舊攤銷前利潤的比率降至2％。
