This Amendment No. 2 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2025 is filed because Spruce Power no longer expects to file its definitive proxy statement within the required 120-day period. Consequently, the company is now including the previously omitted Part III information, which covers executive and director compensation, security ownership, and related person transactions. The filing also discloses several delinquent Section 16 reports by key insiders, indicating a lapse in compliance. While the compensation and ownership details are routine annual disclosures, the necessity of this amendment due to a delayed proxy and the reported late insider filings highlight governance and compliance challenges for the company.
