Solar Operations and Maintenance for Commercial Properties

One key qualification to consider when selecting a solar partner to install your system is whether they have an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) or service department. Since solar is a long-term asset with an expected lifecycle of 30 plus years, ongoing O&M should be considered up front. A trusted O&M partner will maximize your system’s energy output and therefor the return on your investment.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Crocs has leaned on digital sales, which have more than made up for lost revenue due to retail shutdowns. Online sales were 50.2% in 2020 and represented 41.5% of revenue. Last year, e-commerce accounted for just 31.1% of sales.

“We achieved record fourth quarter revenues and profitability and finished 2020 with very strong brand momentum,” Crocs CEO Andrew Rees said in a prepared statement. “We are looking forward to an exceptional 2021 with accelerated revenue growth as we invest in digital, China, and our supply chain to support future growth. I am confident in our ability to continue to deliver outstanding profitability and strong cash flow. The Crocs brand has never been stronger, and I am very excited about our future.”

Looking ahead, Crocs is projecting Q1 2021 sales growth between 40% and 50% compared to first quarter 2020 revenues of $281.2 million.

For the full year, the company expects to top 2020’s results by 20% to 25%.
