Demand for Genie Energy Ltd.'s products and services is subject to seasonality. The first quarter (winter) typically sees elevated electricity and natural gas consumption due to the peak heating season. The second quarter (spring/early summer) generally sees relatively low consumption between the peak heating and cooling seasons. The third quarter (summer) likely experiences increased electricity consumption due to the peak cooling season. Revenue growth is driven by increasing the customer base, with more customers using more power, especially during peak seasons, leading to higher top-line revenue. The retail energy business's margins can be significantly impacted by volatile energy markets and wholesale commodity costs.
