This presentation includes unaudited non-GAAP financial measures including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net cash (debt) and free cash flow. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense (including losses on the extinguishment of debt and net of interest income), income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus any share-based compensation expense, any realized gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurement, any realized gains or losses on the sale of assets and asset impairments and restructuring charges. We define net cash (debt) as total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents less the total principal amount of debt outstanding. We define free cash flow as net cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. We present non-GAAP measures when we believe that the additional information is useful and meaningful to investors. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. See the Appendix for the reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures.

This presentation also contains estimates and other information concerning our industry that are based on industry publications, surveys and forecasts. This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information.

  • TPI plans for renegotiation and extension of contracts one year in advance of expiration
  • Provisions allowing for reductions in lines generally provide for adequate time to replace a customer if a line reduction option is exercised
  • Demand in locations where TPI already has a foothold (China, Turkey, Mexico and India) provides a substantial opportunity for synergies in the construction of new facilities
  • TPI continues to expand its manufacturing facilities globally to meet increased demand

U.S.

Long-term supply agreements provide for estimated minimum aggregate volume commitments from our customers of ~$2.9 billion and encourage our customers to purchase additional volume up to, in the aggregate, an estimated total contract value ~$5.4 billion through the end of 2024

Long-term contracts with minimum volume obligations provide strong revenue visibility

Note: Contracts with some of our customers are subject to termination on short notice with substantial penalties. Contracts with some of our customers also enable them to reduce number of lines, generally with 12 months notice, and in some cases with substantial penalties. Our contracts also contain liquidated damages provisions, which may require us to make unanticipated payments to our customers or our customers to make payments to us.

1. Represents the marginal cost of operating, fully depreciated coal and nuclear facilities, inclusive of decommissioning costs for nuclear facilities. Analysis assumes that the salvage value for a decommissioned coal plant is equivalent to the decommissioning and site restoration costs. Inputs are derived from a benchmark of operating, fully depreciated coal and nuclear assets across the U.S. Capacity factors, fuel, variable and fixed operating expenses are based on upper and lower quartile estimates derived from Lazard's research.

Global Policy Support Coupled with Corporate Initiatives and Repowering Expected to Drive Additional Growth

1

U.S. Policy Initiatives

U.S. policy expected to support continued domestic wind capacity installation

  • Wind Production Tax Credit (PTC) through 2020 for both new and repowering of existing turbines allow developers a PTC benefit as late as 2024, with Treasury clarifications providing an additional year of safe harbor for 2016 and 2017 projects due to COVID-19.
  • State Renewable Portfolio Standards
  • Potential Tailwinds from Biden Presidency and Democratic led Congress

2

Corporate and Utility Procurement

Increasing focus in board rooms regarding the economic and social benefits of adopting low-cost wind energy

  • 86% of S&P 500 companies published sustainability reports in 2018
  • Furthermore, over 230 leading multinationals such as GM, Nike, Walmart, IKEA, BMW, Coca Cola and Proctor & Gamble have taken the RE100 pledge, organized by the Climate Group, to transition to 100% renewable energy

3

International Policy Initiatives

Recent global initiatives aimed at promoting the growth of renewable energy including wind

  • European Union finalized new climate rules targeting an uplift in the share of renewable energy to 32% by 2030
  • Potential EU tailwind from EUR 1.85 trillion Recovery Plan
  • China is targeting 210 GW of grid-connected wind capacity by 2020

COP21 Paris Climate Talks

Paris Agreement is a landmark deal marking a significant commitment by the international community to further reduce fossil fuel consumption

The Industry has Shifted to a Predominantly Outsourced Wind Blade Manufacturing Model

Outsourcing Trends

Vertically integrated OEMs are outsourcing wind blade manufacturing due to:

  • the need to accelerate access to emerging markets
  • the need for efficient capital allocation
  • the need for supply chain optimization
  • global talent constraints

Some have sold or shuttered in-house tower and blade manufacturing facilities in favor of an outsourced manufacturer

Geographically distributed, high precision blade manufacturing is more cost effective when performed by diversified, specialized manufacturers

TPI is the only independent manufacturer of composite wind blades with a global footprint and is well positioned to capitalize on global industry trends

TPI selected as manufacturer of Vestas-designed blades in China, Mexico, India and Turkey

Expected to continue to outsource a significant percentage of blade needs notwithstanding acquisition of LM Wind Power. Expanded with TPI in 2018 and 2020.

Currently outsources to TPI in Mexico and Turkey

Key Messages

  • Wind energy and EV's offer significant opportunity for TPI's diversified, profitable, global growth.
  • Wind growth is mostly about economics, customers, investors and the need to positively impact climate change.
  • Wind costs will continue to be driven down to compete primarily with solar. Price discipline and margin opportunities should improve over time.
  • TPI is building global infrastructure with best-in- class composites technology to access the global growth with the lowest total delivered cost.
  • TPI is a large global player with ~18% global onshore market share in 2019.
  • We will continue to partner deeply with the industry leading customers.
  • We are applying our global scale to ensure lowest cost raw materials and to eliminate supply change constraints.
  • We are bringing relentless focus to manufacturing execution, productivity gains, cost reduction and risk mitigation.
  • We plan to turn speed into a source of competitive advantage - cut transition and startup time in half, reduce cost of transitions and share those costs with our customers.
  • We will continue to innovate and advance our state-of-the-art blade technology.
  • We plan to bring value to the EV sector with structural composite solutions and our long-term plan is to build a $500M annual revenue stream. By developing bus, delivery vehicle, truck and passenger vehicle applications, we will see just how low down the cost curve and how high up the volume curve we can profitably grow.
  • Our capital allocation strategy includes maintaining a conservative balance sheet, smart long-term growth investments and return of capital to shareholders.
  • ESG is the right thing to do. We are committed to it and expect it to drive long term value.
  • We will continue to build a strong, independent and diverse board of directors as well as ensure that our management team is fully aligned with the interests of our stakeholders.
  • 18GW of capacity, 80% utilization, 20% global market share, $2B in annual revenue, 12% AEBITDA, 25-30% ROIC, and 7-9% free cash flow.
