  PowerSecure International, Inc., headquartered in Wake Forest, North Carolina, is a leading provider of Energy and Smart Grid Solutions to electric utilities, their commercial, institutional and industrial customers.

 
Our core business is our Energy and Smart Grid Solutions segment, operated through our largest wholly-owned subsidiary PowerSecure, Inc., which we refer to as "our PowerSecure subsidiary". This segment includes our three core strategic business areas: Interactive Distributed Generation, Utility Infrastructure and Energy Efficiency. These three areas are focused on providing utilities and their commercial, institutional and industrial customers with products and services to help them generate, deliver, and utilize electricity more efficiently and are intended to deliver strong returns on investment. They share common or complementary utility relationships and customer types, common sales and overhead resources, and facilities. However, each business area in this segment possesses distinct technical disciplines and specific capabilities that are designed to provide a competitive advantage in the marketplace for its specific products and services, including personnel, technology, engineering, and intellectual capital. This segment operates primarily out of our Wake Forest, North Carolina headquarters office, and its operations also include several satellite offices and manufacturing facilities, the largest of which are in Raleigh, North Carolina, Randleman, North Carolina, McDonough, Georgia, and Anderson, South Carolina. The locations of our sales organization for this segment are generally in close proximity to the utilities and commercial, industrial, and institutional customers they serve.
Until recently, our Energy Services segment operated through our two other principal operating subsidiaries, Southern Flow Companies, Inc., which we refer to as "Southern Flow", and WaterSecure Holdings, Inc., which we refer to as "WaterSecure". WaterSecure holds a significant noncontrolling minority portion of the equity interests in an unconsolidated business, Marcum Midstream 1995-2 Business Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, which we refer to as "MM 1995-2" or as our "WaterSecure operations". Our WaterSecure operations provided water processing, recycling, and disposal services for oil and natural gas producers in northeastern Colorado utilizing environmentally responsible technologies and processes. In June 2011, substantially all of the assets and business of MM 1995-2 were sold. Accordingly, our WaterSecure subsidiary no longer has any on-going operating activity. See Note 5 for more information regarding the sale of MM 1995-2. Our Southern Flow business, which was sold in January 2011 pursuant to a purchase agreement executed in December 2010, provided oil and natural gas measurement services to customers involved in oil and natural gas production, transportation, and processing, with a focus on the natural gas market. Due to its sale, Southern Flow's operations are now reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. See Note 4 for more information regarding the sale of Southern Flow. The sales of our WaterSecure and Southern Flow operations were the fulfillment of our strategy to monetize our non-core assets to focus on the businesses in our Energy and Smart Grid Solutions business segment. As a result of these sales, our Energy Services segment ceased business activities in June 2011 and we will no longer report ongoing operations in the Energy Services segment in financial periods after June 30, 2011.

POWR.. $.4.62  PowerSecure Reports Third Quarter Results

 Growth Progression Continues, Revenues Increase 45% to a Record $38 Million, and Backlog Grows to $149 Million

WAKE FOREST, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

PowerSecure International, Inc. (Nasdaq: POWR) today reported its third quarter 2011 results, including record revenue of $38.2 million which increased 45% on a year-over-year basis compared to the third quarter of 2010, and increased 27% on a sequential basis compared to the second quarter of 2011. Third quarter 2011 diluted earnings per share ("E.P.S.") were $0.05, which compares on a year-over-year basis to $0.03 in the third quarter of 2010, and on a sequential basis to $0.90 of GAAP E.P.S. and $0.00 of Non-GAAP E.P.S. in the second quarter of 2011. The Company's Non-GAAP E.P.S. for the second quarter of 2011 includes adjustments to GAAP E.P.S. to exclude the gain on the sale of its non-core WaterSecure business and charges related to the exit of its PowerPackages business (see Non-GAAP reconciliation, below). Third quarter 2011 diluted E.P.S. from continuing operations were $0.05, which compares on a year-over-year basis to ($0.01) in the third quarter of 2010, and on a sequential basis to $0.90 of GAAP E.P.S. and $0.00 of Non-GAAP E.P.S. in the second quarter of 2011.

The Company's record third quarter revenue of $38.2 million continues the consistent growth progression demonstrated throughout 2011, with revenue increases across business lines driven by the expansion of its base of utility partners, a growing customer roster, and the introduction and sales of new products and services:

                            
($ in 000's)    4Q10        1Q11        2Q11        3Q11 
Revenue by Product/Service             
Distributed Generation    10,254    11,202    12,856    19,999 
              
Utility Infrastructure    6,785    7,578    11,510    13,300 
              
Energy Efficiency    3,966        4,933        5,851        4,930 
Total Revenue    21,005    23,713    30,217    38,229 

The Company also announced that an additional $14 million of new business has been added to its revenue backlog from new business received in late-October. This new business is in addition to the $15 million of new awards announced on October 11, 2011. As a result, the Company's revenue backlog stands at $149 million, representing revenue expected to be recognized after September 30, 2011, for periods including the fourth quarter of 2011 onward. This backlog figure compares to $147 million of revenue backlog announced in conjunction with the Company's second quarter earnings release issued on August 4, 2011.

Sidney Hinton, CEO of PowerSecure, said, "2011 is a very gratifying year for the PowerSecure team, as our growth initiatives have accelerated our top-line growth, and we are realizing the positive bottom-line impact of these revenue increases as the year unfolds. We are building a business platform with increasing diversity in areas where we can utilize our core competencies to serve a growing list of utility partners and customers with products and services that have significant long-term potential. We are building a strong foundation to achieve our mid-range goal of $300 million in revenue and double-digit operating margins by 2015. Importantly, we are achieving our near-term results while at the same time succeeding in our long-term strategic objectives of growing our product lines and growing our Distributed Generation recurring revenue business, which posted another record quarter. Our growth strategies are working, and we are pleased with the progress we are making toward unlocking our revenue and profit potential."

The Company's $11.9 million, or 45.3% year-over-year quarterly revenue increase, was driven by an increase in Distributed Generation revenues of $6.3 million, or 46.1%, as well as an increase in Utility Infrastructure revenues of $7.2 million, or 118.1%, partially offset by a decrease in Energy Efficiency revenues of $1.6 million, or 24.5%. On a sequential basis, compared to the second quarter of 2011, the Company's $8.0 million , or 26.5% revenue increase was driven by an increase in Distributed Generation revenues of $7.1 million, or 55.6%, and an increase in Utility Infrastructure revenues of $1.8 million, or 15.6%, partially offset by a decrease in Energy Efficiency revenues of $0.9 million, or 15.7%.

The Company's third quarter gross margin as a percentage of revenue was 30.5% compared to 32.6% in the third quarter of 2010 and 25.4% in the second quarter of 2011. The lower year-over-year gross margins were driven by approximately $0.8 million, or 2.0 percentage points, of additional fuel costs incurred from the extensive operation during the months of July and August of a PowerSecure-owned distributed generation system which serves a Midwest utility, due to record Summer heat causing high demand on the utility system. Excluding this incremental fuel cost, the Company's third quarter gross margin was 32.5%. Additionally, period-to-period gross margins were affected, as they are each quarter, by the specific mix of projects completed in each period, and by the relative mix of higher-margin Distributed Generation revenues compared to lower-margin Utility Infrastructure service revenues in each period.

The Company's strong quarterly revenue and profit results were achieved while at the same time the platform of Company-owned recurring revenue Distributed Generation projects continued to build. The Company invested $3.8 million in capital to deploy systems under high margin long-term recurring revenue contracts, although these projects result in deferred current period revenue and profit recognition. Since the start of 2011, the Company has invested $11.4 million of capital to deploy these projects in support of its long-term growth and profit objectives. These investments have grown its recurring revenue business to record levels, with third quarter recurring revenue reaching $4.1 million, which would have been approximately $3.8 million excluding the incremental operation of the Distributed Generation system discussed above due to the extraordinary Summer heat. This adjusted figure is approximately double compared to the prior year's third quarter.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2011 were $11.3 million on a GAAP basis, and $10.8 million on a Non-GAAP basis after adjusting for $0.5 million of operating expenses related to the wind-down of the Company's PowerPackages business, which it is in the process of exiting (see Non-GAAP financial measures, below). This compares to $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase in operating expenses is due to "step-up investments" the Company has made to expand and grow each of its Interactive Distributed Generation, Utility Infrastructure, and Energy Efficiency businesses. These expenses support new product and customer development, engineering, personnel and equipment, as well as additional sales and marketing activities, and include increases in depreciation from capital expenditures for recurring revenue distributed generation systems.

During the third quarter of 2011 the Company also realized revenue of $1.6 million and gross margin of $0.4 million from the sale of inventory related to the wind-down of its PowerPackages business. These inventory sales, combined with $0.5 million of PowerPackages operating expenses discussed above, generated a pre-tax loss from PowerPackages exit activities of $0.1 million. In addition, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of just under $0.1 million related to positive adjustments to the purchase price of the sale of its WaterSecure investment, which was completed in the second quarter. In accordance with GAAP, each of these items was recorded as a component of continuing operations during the third quarter. However, because these businesses have been sold or are in the process of being exited by the Company, Non-GAAP Pro-forma results of operations are provided below to adjust for this small WaterSecure gain on sale and PowerPackages wind-down loss (see Non-GAAP financial measures, below). Adjusting for these items, Non-GAAP diluted E.P.S. was $0.05 for the Company's third quarter, essentially the same as GAAP diluted E.P.S of $0.05.

The Company's $149 million revenue backlog and the estimated timing of revenue recognition are outlined below, including "project-based revenues" expected to be recognized as projects are completed, and "recurring revenues" expected to be recognized over the life of the contracts:

Revenue Backlog expected to be recognized after September 30, 2011               
   Anticipated    Estimated Primary 
Description        Revenue        Recognition Period 
        
Project-based Revenue -- Near term    $59 Million    4Q11 through 2Q12 
Project-based Revenue -- Long term    $21 Million    3Q12 through 2013 
Recurring Revenue    $69 Million    4Q11 through 2019 
Revenue Backlog expected to be recognized after September 30, 2011    $149 Million    
        
Note: Anticipated revenue and estimated primary recognition periods are subject to risks and uncertainties
 
as indicated in the Company's safe harbor statement, below. Consistent with past practice, these figures 
are not intended to constitute the Company's total revenue over the indicated time periods, as the Company 
has additional, regular on-going revenues. Examples of additional, regular recurring revenues include 
revenues from the engineering fees, and service revenue, among others. Numbers may not add due to rounding. 

Orders in the Company's revenue backlog are subject to delay, deferral, acceleration, resizing, or cancellation from time to time. Given the irregular sales cycle of customer orders, and especially of large orders, the revenue backlog at any given time is not necessarily an accurate indication of our future revenues.

The Company will host a conference call commencing today at 5:30 p.m. eastern time to discuss its third quarter 2011 results, business operations, strategic initiatives and prospects for the future.

Non-GAAP Pro-forma Financial Measures:

Our references to our third quarter 2011 "Non-GAAP Pro-forma" financial measures of revenue, gross profit, gross margin as a percentage of revenue, operating expenses, operating income, net income from continuing operations, net income, net income attributable to PowerSecure International, Inc., diluted E.P.S. from continuing operations, diluted E.P.S. from discontinued operations, and diluted E.P.S. discussed and shown above constitute non-GAAP financial measures. They refer to our GAAP results, adjusted to show the results 1) without the gain on the sale of our WaterSecure investment (identified in our financial statements as our unconsolidated affiliate), with the third quarter 2011 amount representing a small positive adjustment from the gain on the sale which was announced and recorded in the Company's second quarter of 2011, and 2) without the wind-down activity and charges related to the plan to exit our PowerPackages business, which was announced and initiated in the Company's second quarter of 2011. For each of these two items we are utilizing a 37.5% effective tax rate to calculate their impact on net income.

Our references to our second quarter 2011 "Non-GAAP Pro-forma" financial measures of revenue, gross profit, gross margin as a percentage of revenue, operating expenses, operating income, net income from continuing operations, net income, net income attributable to PowerSecure International, Inc., diluted E.P.S. from continuing operations, diluted E.P.S. from discontinued operations, and diluted E.P.S. discussed and shown above constitute non-GAAP financial measures. They refer to our GAAP results, adjusted to show our results 1) without the gain on the sale of the WaterSecure investment (identified in our financial statements as our unconsolidated affiliate), 2) without the charges related to the write-down of assets in conjunction with our plan to exit our PowerPackages business, and 3) after allocating the tax expense incurred in our second quarter to each of the elements of our Non-GAAP Pro-forma reconciliation utilizing the second quarter of 2011's effective tax rate, reflecting that virtually all of our tax net operating loss carry forwards ("NOL's") will be utilized as a result of the gain on the sale of our WaterSecure business.

We believe providing non-GAAP measures which show our pro-forma results with these items adjusted is valuable and useful as it allows our management and our board of directors to measure, monitor and evaluate our second and third quarter 2011 operating performance with the same consistent financial context as the business was managed and evaluated throughout the 2011 fiscal year. Additionally, because our WaterSecure business was sold in June, 2011, and our PowerPackages exit plan was also initiated in June, 2011, these Non-GAAP Pro-forma measures are not indicative of our current or future results.

We believe these Non-GAAP Pro-forma measures also provide meaningful information to investors in terms of enhancing their understanding of our second and third quarter 2011 operating performance and results, as they allow investors to more easily compare our financial performance on a consistent basis with the way it was reported and evaluated throughout 2011. These Non-GAAP Pro-forma measures also correspond with the way the majority of analysts' current financial estimates are calculated. Our Non-GAAP Pro-forma measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as GAAP revenue, operating income, net income from continuing operations, net income, net income attributable to PowerSecure International, Inc., diluted E.P.S. from continuing operations, diluted E.P.S. from discontinued operations, and diluted E.P.S.

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
{C}{C}
Description of Business
PowerSecure International, Inc., headquartered in Wake Forest, North Carolina, is a leading provider of Energy and Smart Grid Solutions to electric utilities, their commercial, institutional and industrial customers.
Our core business is our Energy and Smart Grid Solutions segment, operated through our largest wholly-owned subsidiary PowerSecure, Inc., which we refer to as "our PowerSecure subsidiary". This segment includes our three core strategic business areas: Interactive Distributed Generation, Utility Infrastructure and Energy Efficiency. These three areas are focused on providing utilities and their commercial, institutional and industrial customers with products and services to help them generate, deliver, and utilize electricity more efficiently and are intended to deliver strong returns on investment. They share common or complementary utility relationships and customer types, common sales and overhead resources, and facilities. However, each business area in this segment possesses distinct technical disciplines and specific capabilities that are designed to provide a competitive advantage in the marketplace for its specific products and services, including personnel, technology, engineering, and intellectual capital. This segment operates primarily out of our Wake Forest, North Carolina headquarters office, and its operations also include several satellite offices and manufacturing facilities, the largest of which are in Raleigh, North Carolina, Randleman, North Carolina, McDonough, Georgia, and Anderson, South Carolina. The locations of our sales organization for this segment are generally in close proximity to the utilities and commercial, industrial, and institutional customers they serve.
Until recently, our Energy Services segment operated through our two other principal operating subsidiaries, Southern Flow Companies, Inc., which we refer to as "Southern Flow", and WaterSecure Holdings, Inc., which we refer to as "WaterSecure". WaterSecure holds a significant noncontrolling minority portion of the equity interests in an unconsolidated business, Marcum Midstream 1995-2 Business Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, which we refer to as "MM 1995-2" or as our "WaterSecure operations". Our WaterSecure operations provided water processing, recycling, and disposal services for oil and natural gas producers in northeastern Colorado utilizing environmentally responsible technologies and processes. In June 2011, substantially all of the assets and business of MM 1995-2 were sold. Accordingly, our WaterSecure subsidiary no longer has any on-going operating activity. See Note 5 for more information regarding the sale of MM 1995-2. Our Southern Flow business, which was sold in January 2011 pursuant to a purchase agreement executed in December 2010, provided oil and natural gas measurement services to customers involved in oil and natural gas production, transportation, and processing, with a focus on the natural gas market. Due to its sale, Southern Flow's operations are now reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. See Note 4 for more information regarding the sale of Southern Flow. The sales of our WaterSecure and Southern Flow operations were the fulfillment of our strategy to monetize our non-core assets to focus on the businesses in our Energy and Smart Grid Solutions business segment. As a result of these sales, our Energy Services segment ceased business activities in June 2011 and we will no longer report ongoing operations in the Energy Services segment in financial periods after June 30, 2011.

Basis of Presentation
Organization - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PowerSecure International, Inc. and its subsidiaries, primarily, PowerSecure, Inc. ("our PowerSecure subsidiary") (and its majority-owned and wholly-owned subsidiaries, UtilityEngineering, Inc., PowerServices, Inc., EnergyLite, Inc., EfficientLights, LLC, Innovative Electronic Solutions Lighting, LLC ("IES"), Reid's Trailer, Inc. and PowerPackages, LLC), Southern Flow Companies, Inc. ("Southern Flow"), WaterSecure Holdings, Inc. ("WaterSecure"), and Marcum Gas Metering, Inc. (fka Metretek International, Inc. and Metretek, Incorporated) ("Metretek Florida"), collectively referred to as the "Company" or "we" or "us" or "our".
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
In management's opinion, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) have been made which are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of us and our subsidiaries as of June 30, 2011 and the consolidated results of our operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010.
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PowerSecure International, Inc. and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. We use the equity method to account for our investment in our unconsolidated affiliate.
Noncontrolling Interest - The noncontrolling ownership interests in the income or losses of our majority-owned subsidiaries is included in our consolidated statements of operations as a reduction or addition to net income to derive income attributable to PowerSecure International stockholders. Similarly, the noncontrolling ownership interest in the undistributed equity of our majority-owned subsidiaries is shown as a separate component of stockholders' equity in our consolidated balance sheet.
Until April 30, 2010, our PowerSecure subsidiary held a 67% controlling ownership interest in EfficientLights. On April 30, 2010, we acquired the 33% noncontrolling ownership interest in EfficientLights at which time EfficientLights became a wholly-owned subsidiary of our PowerSecure subsidiary. Also, on April 1, 2010, our PowerSecure subsidiary acquired a 67% controlling ownership interest in IES which is consolidated in our financial statements. Accordingly, the noncontrolling interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, consists solely of the noncontrolling shareholders' interest in the results of IES. Similarly, the noncontrolling interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 consists of the noncontrolling shareholders' interest in the results of EfficientLights through April 30, 2010 and the noncontrolling shareholders' interest in the results of IES commencing April 1, 2010. As a result, period-to-period comparisons of the aggregate amount of noncontrolling interests are not necessarily comparable.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that our management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include percentage-of-completion estimates for revenue and cost of sales recognition, incentive compensation and commissions, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, inventory valuation reserves, warranty reserves and our deferred tax valuation allowance.
Reclassifications - During the fourth quarter of 2010, our board of directors approved a plan to sell our Southern Flow business (see Note 4). The operations of Southern Flow have been reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition, certain 2010 amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders' equity.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards
{C}{C}
Revenue Recognition - For our distributed generation turn-key project-based sales and our utility infrastructure projects, we recognize revenue and profit as work progresses using the percentage-of-completion method, which relies on various estimates. We believe the use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for our distributed generation and utility infrastructure projects is preferable to the completed contract method because our typical projects occurs over several accounting periods and the percentage-of-completion method is a better method to match the revenues and costs to the reporting period in which the construction services are performed. Nearly all of our distributed generation and utility infrastructure projects are fixed-price contracts.

In applying the percentage-of-completion method to our distributed generation turn-key projects, we have identified the key output project phases that are standard components of these projects. We have further identified, based on past experience, an estimate of the value of each of these output phases based on a combination of costs incurred and the value added to the overall construction project. While the order of these phases varies depending on the project, each of these output phases is necessary to complete each project and each phase is an integral part of the turnkey product solution we deliver to our customers. We use these output phases and percentages to measure our progress toward completion of our construction projects. For each reporting period, the status of each project, by phase, is determined by employees who are managers of or are otherwise directly involved with the construction project and is reviewed by our accounting personnel. Utilizing this information, we recognize project revenues (and associated project costs) and gross profit based on the percentage associated with output phases that are complete or in process on each of our projects.
In applying the percentage-of-completion method to our utility infrastructure projects, revenues and gross profit are recognized as work is performed based on the relationship between actual costs incurred and total estimated costs at completion.
In all cases where we utilize the percentage-of-completion, revenues and gross profit are adjusted prospectively for revisions in estimated total contract costs and contract values. Estimated losses, if any, are recorded when identified. While a project is in process, amounts billed to customers in excess of revenues recognized to date are classified as current liabilities. Likewise, amounts recognized as revenue in excess of actual billings to date are recorded as unbilled accounts receivable. In the event adjustments are made to the contract price, including, for example, adjustments for additional wire or other raw materials, we adjust the purchase price and related costs for these items when they are identified.
Because the percentage-of-completion method of accounting relies upon estimates described above, recognized revenues and profits are subject to revision as a project progresses to completion. Revisions in profit estimates are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. In the event we were required to adjust any particular project's estimated revenues or costs, the effect on the current period earnings may or may not be significant. If, however, conditions arise that requires us to adjust our estimated revenues or costs for a series of similar construction projects, the effect on current period earnings would more likely be significant. In addition, certain contracts provide for cancellation provisions prior to completion of a project. The cancellation provisions generally provide for payment of costs incurred, but may result in an adjustment to profit already recognized in a prior period.
We recognize equipment and product revenue when persuasive evidence of a commercial arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and/or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Equipment and product sales are generally made directly to end users of the product, who are responsible for payment for the product.
Service revenue includes regulatory consulting and rate design services, power system engineering services, energy conservation services, and monitoring and maintenance services. Revenues from these services are recognized when the service is performed and the customer has accepted the work.
Additionally, our utility infrastructure business provides services to utilities involving construction, maintenance, and upgrades to their electrical transmission and distribution systems which is not fixed price project-based work. These services are delivered by us under contracts which are generally of two types. In the first type, we are paid a fixed fee based on the number of units of work we complete, an example of which is number of new utility poles we replace. In the second type, we are paid for the time and materials utilized to complete the work, plus a profit margin. In both cases, we recognize revenue as these services are delivered.

Revenues for our recurring revenue distributed generation projects are recognized over the term of the contract or when energy savings are realized by the customer at its site. Under these arrangements, we provide utilities and their customers with access to PowerSecure-owned and operated distributed generation systems for standby power and to deliver peak shaving benefits. These contracts can involve multiple parties, with one party paying us for the value of backup power (usually, but not always, a commercial, industrial, or institutional customer), and one party paying us for the value of the electrical capacity provided by the system (either the customer or a utility).
Sales of certain goods and services sometimes involve the provision of multiple deliverables. Revenues from contracts with multiple deliverables are recognized as each element is earned based on the selling price for each deliverable. The selling price for each deliverable is generally based on our selling price for that deliverable on a stand-alone basis, third-party evidence if we do not sell that deliverable on a stand-alone basis, or an estimated selling price if neither specific selling prices nor third-party evidence exists.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase, including money market mutual funds, short-term time deposits, and government agency and corporate obligations, are classified as cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable - Our customers include a wide variety of mid-sized and large businesses, utilities and institutions. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition and generally do not require collateral. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and regularly adjust credit limits of customers based upon payment history and a customer's current credit worthiness, as judged by us. We maintain a provision for estimated credit losses.
Concentration of Credit Risk - We are subject to concentrations of credit risk from our cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We limit our exposure to credit risk associated with cash and cash equivalents by placing it with multiple domestic financial institutions. Nevertheless, our cash in bank deposit accounts at these financial institutions frequently exceeds federally insured limits. We further limit our exposure to credit risk associated with these cash accounts by adherence to our investment policy. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
From time to time, we have derived a material portion of our revenues from one or more significant customers. To date, nearly all our revenues have been derived from sales to customers within the United States.
Warranty Reserve - We provide a standard warranty for our distributed generation equipment, switchgear equipment, utility infrastructure equipment, and our Energy Efficiency unit's lighting products, which range generally between one and five years. In addition, we offer extended warranty terms on our distributed generation turn-key and switchgear projects. We reserve for the estimated cost of product warranties when revenue is recognized, and we evaluate our reserve periodically by comparing our warranty repair experience by product. The purchase price for extended warranties or extended warranties included in the contract terms are deferred as a component of our warranty reserve. The balance of our warranty reserve included in accrued and other liabilities at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $1,060 and $1,087, respectively.
