Business Summary
Energy Focus, Inc. . Engages in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and installation of energy-efficient lighting systems principally for commercial/industrial lighting and pool lighting markets. Its products include metal halide and light-emitting diode (LED) fiber optic lighting systems, LED MR-16/par halogen track replacement fixtures, LED cold storage globe lamps, LED lamps and fixtures, LED dock lights, high-intensity discharge high bay fixtures, fluorescent fixtures, LED landscape fixtures, and LED parking garage lamps and fixtures. The company’s products also comprise customized components, such as underwater lenses, color-changing LED lighting fixtures, and lighted water features, including waterfalls and laminar-flow water fountains. It markets its products through direct sales employees, independent sales representatives, and various distributors to commercial, residential, retail, grocery, military, museum, and pool and spa markets worldwide. The company was formerly known as Fiberstars, Inc. and changed its name to Energy Focus, Inc. in May 2007. Energy Focus, Inc. was founded in 1985 and is based in Solon, Ohio.

It is hard to imagine a major market that will change more in the next decade than the more than $100 billion international lighting market. Many nations, including the United States, are mandating that the 100-year-old ubiquitous incandescent lamp be phased out over the next three to ten years because of its energy inefficiency. What will replace it? While the compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) is more energy efficient, it lacks both the ability to “spotlight” as well as the pleasing aesthetic attributes of incandescent lamps. Other new technologies, including metal halide discharge lamps and LEDs, are quickly emerging as viable and efficient light sources. However, a metal halide lamp often produces too much light and an LED lamp typically produces too little. Into this battle-ground Energy Focus offers an expanding range of products. Our exclusive EFO technology offers the unique combination of high efficiency, directability, pleasing color and just the right output to match those disappearing 100-year-old lamps.

The forecast for Q4 and 2010 include the following:
• Sales, as previously forecast, in excess of $35 million are anticipated for 2010 with net sales from continuing operations expected to exceed $8.4 million in the fourth quarter 2010 versus $3.6 million in the fourth quarter 2009.
• The company anticipates being net cash flow positive from operations in 2010.
• $5.6 million, for at least a total of $27.4 million, in lighting solutions contracts secured by the end of the fourth quarter for work expected to be completed in 2010 and 2011.

The EFO advantage Up to 80% energy consumption savings, much lower maintenance costs, and materials that are safer and friendlier to the environment. To learn more about how EFO can provide superior lighting and unparalleled savings, check out the solutions below.

Innovation means customer solutions
What do Victoria’s Secret, the Magna Carta, U.S. naval vessels, and the fresh fish display at Whole Foods have in common?

Each has been illuminated by Energy Focus lighting solutions.

Innovation at Energy Focus means energy-efficient lighting solutions that meet the precise needs of our customers solutions with cost and energy savings unmatched by other lighting companies.

Our innovation process is grounded in a collaborative methodology that emphasizes customer needs, technical feasibility and solution-oriented design.

The process begins with a thorough understanding of our customers’ needs, obtained through observing, listening, and learning everything we can about our customers’ businesses, and their technical, operational, and aesthetic requirements.

When we discovered that Whole Foods had a problem with their fresh fish display ice was constantly melting and fresh fish was being warmed by halogen lighting Energy Focus designed a fiber optic lighting solution that keeps the fish cool, doesn’t melt the ice, reduces energy expenses and maintenance costs, while providing exceptional quality of light.

When Limited Brands explained to us the high cost they incurred to dismantle store shelving and replace built-in fluorescent bulbs, we sent a team of engineers and designers to examine the problem and design a cost-effective LED retrofit solution a solution that’s easier to install, lasts for 10 years, and consumes far less energy than the old fluorescent bulbs.

As we discover these types of customer needs, we thoroughly evaluate potential technical and design solutions.

That’s where Energy Focus really shines, because technical and design excellence is part of our DNA. Energy Focus engineers invented short-arc, low-wattage metal halide sources, and were first to combine these sources with fiber for commercial lighting. Energy Focus also invented non-imaging optics that harvest over 95% of this light and efficiently drive it into fiber. And we invented a new generation of optical splitters that allows multiple, large-diameter fibers to be efficiently coupled to a light source.

"LED lights are an immediate way to improve efficiency across the fleet," said Roger Buelow, Energy Focus Chief Technology Officer and principal investigator for the ONR's SSL project. "As an example, the fluorescent version of the berth light found in every Sailor's sleeping area runs at over 10 watts and is a legendary maintenance headache due to starter and lamp failures," Buelow said. "Because of TechSolutions' work with Energy Focus, the fleet now has a qualified LED version that runs at five watts, delivers the same light output and will last for a decade without maintenance."
