Enphase Energy Director Richard Mora sold 1,100 shares for $57,000 on February 10, 2026, following the company’s strong Q4 2025 earnings report that surpassed revenue expectations by $2.73 million. The sale, a voluntary direct transaction, reduced Mora’s holdings by 10.51%, leaving him with 9,370 shares—just 0.01% of outstanding shares—though his median past sales were significantly larger (12,692 shares). Enphase forecasted Q1 2026 revenue of $270–300 million, exceeding analyst estimates of $262.2 million, despite a 29.84% stock decline over the past year and recent layoffs affecting 6% of its workforce. The layoffs aim to offset revenue losses from the expired 30% federal solar tax credit, though their long-term effectiveness remains uncertain as the company navigates market volatility and regulatory shifts. Enphase, a leader in microinverter tech and energy management platforms, maintains a $6.1B market cap with a 45.7% gross margin, though investor sentiment remains mixed amid operational challenges.

It also offers proprietary software and cloud services.What this transaction means for investorsMora’s sale of ENPH shares was a direct transaction, and wasn’t a part of any company insider plan, so it was a voluntary decision. However, there isn’t a definitive reason why he sold shares. Enphase Energy is coming off a strong Q4 FY 2025 earnings report on February 3, where it beat analysts’ expectations including in quarterly revenue, where it reached $343.32 million, which surpassed the consensus estimate of $340.59 million. The company also expects revenue in the first quarter of 2026 to range between $270-$300 million, which is higher than the $262.2 million analyst estimate. But before investors look to capitalize after the strong earnings, there is room of concern with Enphase Energy’s announcement of layoffs in late January. The solar energy company announced that it planned to layoff 160 employees, which is approximately 6% of its workforce because of the 30% federal income tax credit for homeowners who purchase rooftop systems, expired at the end of 2025. Although the layoffs were designed to help mitigate the revenue loss Enphase expects to suffer from the tax credit expiration, it still remains unclear if it can actually rebound from the loss effectively.
