PowerSecure Adds $75 Million to Revenue Backlog

PowerSecure International, Inc. (Nasdaq: POWR) today announced it has added approximately $75 million to its revenue backlog, including approximately $49 million from a renewed and expanded three year utility infrastructure (UI) award to serve one of the nation's largest investor owned utilities (IOUs).

The new IOU contract represents an increase of approximately 50 percent over last year's work levels.

In addition, the new business awards include approximately $18 million of new distributed generation (DG) business, approximately $4 million of additional new UI business, and approximately $4 million in new energy efficiency (EE) sales.

The approximately $18 million in new DG business includes approximately $10 million from a variety of hospital, data center, grocery/retail and industrial projects, and approximately $3 million from a solar project. The DG total also includes approximately $5 million in new recurring revenues for company-owned DG projects for the northeast regional division of a major grocer.

The approximately $4 million in new additional UI awards include substation, transmission and distribution work for ongoing utility system maintenance and construction projects, primarily for large utilities.

The approximately $4 million in new EE awards include approximately $3 million from ESCO contracts and approximately $1 million in LED lighting awards, primarily from sales of PowerSecure's new area light.

"We are always humbled by the opportunity to expand our work on one of our utility customer's systems. We do not take this for granted, and our team wakes up every day eager to serve and deliver exceptional value," said Sidney Hinton, chief executive officer of PowerSecure.

"We continue to see strong traction in our distributed generation and utility infrastructure businesses, growing market demand for our area light, and we remain very optimistic about the broad range of new business opportunities we are pursuing," Hinton added.
