SAN JOSE, Calif., May 11, 2010 – SunPower Corp. (NASDAQ: SPWRA, SPWRB) today announced financial results for its 2010 first quarter which ended April 4, 2010. Revenue for the 2010 first quarter was $347 million which compares to $212 million in the first quarter of 2009 and $548 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. The company’s Components and Systems segments accounted for 81% and 19% of first-quarter 2010 revenue, respectively.
“Our European residential and commercial business is growing rapidly and we continue to maintain our leading share of U.S. installed systems,” said Tom Werner, SunPower’s CEO. “With the completion of our SunRay acquisition, we are constructing more than 100 MW of power plants in Europe and expect to monetize these projects, along with our previously completed Montalto power plant, by the end of 2010. In the U.S., we are on track to begin shipments in the second half of 2010 under our five year, 200 MWdc rooftop supply agreement with Southern California Edison. We also secured an incremental 40-MW power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company, bringing our contracted capacity at California Valley Solar Ranch to 250 MW. With our steady and diversified resid
ential and commercial business, as well as our contracted utility and power plants business, we have very high confidence in our ability to meet our 2010 plan and deliver strong growth in 2011.
“Since all of SunPower’s high-efficiency solar panels, including our new E18 Series and E19 Series are fully allocated in our 2010 bookings forecast, we have increased our access to third-party supply to meet demand. We also announced today our new SunPower Oasis Power Plant product, the industry’s first modular solar power block that scales from 1-MW distributed installations to large central station power plants. SunPower Oasis expands our utility and power plant business opportunities providing our partners a cost-effective way to rapidly deploy fully integrated, utility-scale solar by streamlining the development and construction process. We are also accelerating our panel and system cost reduction plans as well as continuing to invest in research and development to lower capital expe
nditures per watt, improve return on invested capital and manufacturing performance metrics,” concluded Werner.
On a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) basis, for the first quarter of 2010, SunPower reported gross margin of 20.7%, an operating loss of $2.9 million and net income per diluted share of $0.13. This compares to gross margin of 15.2%, an operating loss of $18 million and a net loss per diluted share of $0.12 in the first quarter of 2009. First quarter 2010 GAAP results include a $0.33 per share tax benefit.
On a non-GAAP basis for the first quarter of 2010, SunPower reported a total gross margin of 22.5%. Operating income for the quarter was $13.5 million and net income per diluted share was $0.05, in-line with the company’s previous guidance for the quarter. In the first quarter 2009, the company reported non-GAAP gross margin of 17.2%, an operating loss of $4.4 million and a net loss per diluted share of $0.09. For the 2010 first quarter, the Components segment non-GAAP gross margin was 25.7% and the Systems segment gross margin was 8.3%. The Systems segment results were impacted by weather-related seasonality, delayed projects as well as unabsorbed costs related to deferred revenue as a result of the company’s acquisition of SunRay Renewable Ventures.
“In the first quarter, we took a number of steps to further strengthen our liquidity in order to support our revenue growth and capital expansion plans,” said Dennis Arriola, SunPower’s CFO. “Our recent $250 million convertible debt offering, our new $350 million letter of credit facility and a $75 million IFC loan will help to provide the funding we need in order to carry out our development and capital expenditure programs in 2010. We remain on schedule to sell our previously completed Montalto project and are on track to debt finance and monetize more than 60 MW of projects currently under construction in Italy this year. We have also substantially mitigated the risk of fluctuations in the Euro as 72% of our 2010 net Euro exposures are hedged at a rate of 1.38 US dollars per Euro
.”
2010 Guidance
For fiscal year 2010, the company has reaffirmed its non-GAAP guidance of: revenue of $2.0 billion to $2.25 billion, a tax rate of 19% to 22% and net income per diluted share of $1.25 to $1.65. The company also expects capital expenditures of $375 million to $475 million and solar cell production of approximately 550 MW. For fiscal year 2010, the company’s GAAP guidance is: revenue of $2.0 billion to $2.25 billion, a tax provision of $40 million to $50 million, and a net (loss)/income per diluted share of $(0.20) to $0.25. The table below summarizes the company’s guidance for the balance of the 2010 fiscal year.

Segment Reporting Information
For first quarter 2010 reporting purposes, the Systems segment generally represents products and services sold directly to the system owner. Additionally, both SunPower and third-party solar panels sold through the Systems segment channels are recorded as Systems segment revenue. The Components segment primarily represents products sold to installers and resellers.
Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared under GAAP, SunPower uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results to exclude non-cash charges related to amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, interest expense and net gains (losses) on mark-to-market derivative instruments related to its cash convertible debt offering and its related tax effects. Management does not consider these charges in evaluating the core operational activities of SunPower. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate SunPower’s current performance. Most analysts covering SunPower use the non-GAAP measures as well. Given management’s use of these
non-GAAP measures, SunPower believes these measures are important to investors in understanding SunPower’s current and future operating results as seen through the eyes of management. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in enabling them to better assess changes in SunPower’s core business across different time periods. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
Fiscal Periods
The Company reports on a fiscal-year basis and ends its quarters on the Sunday closest to the end of the applicable calendar quarter, except in a 53-week fiscal year, in which case the additional week falls into the fourth quarter of that fiscal year. Fiscal year 2010 consists of 52 weeks while fiscal year 2009 consists of 53 weeks. The first quarter of fiscal 2010 ended on April 4, 2010 and the first quarter of fiscal 2009 ended on March 29, 2009.

About SunPower’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, SunPower uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results to exclude non-cash charges related to amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, interest expense and net gains (losses) on mark-to-market derivative instruments related to its cash convertible debt offering and the related tax effects of these non-GAAP adjustments. The specific non-GAAP measures listed below are gross margin, operating income (loss) and net income (loss) per share. Management believes that each of these non-GAAP measures (gross margin, operating income (loss) and net income (loss) per share) are useful to investors by enabling them to better assess changes in each of these key elements of SunPower's resu
lts of operations across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of these non-cash items. Thus, each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with another method for assessing SunPower's operating results in a manner that is focused on its ongoing core operating performance, absent the effects of amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, interest expense and net gains (losses) on mark-to-market derivative instruments related to its cash convertible debt offering . Management also uses these non-GAAP measures internally to assess the business and financial performance of current and historical results, for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating the company's current performance. Many of the analysts covering SunPower also use these non-GAAP measures in their analyses. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP financial data, the non-GAAP results should be reviewed together with
the GAAP results and are not intended to serve as a substitute for results under GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
o Non-GAAP gross margin. The use of this non-GAAP financial measure allows management to evaluate the gross margin of the company's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of non-cash items including amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and interest expense. In addition, it is an important component of management's internal performance measurement process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to evaluate SunPower’s revenue generation performance relative to the direct costs of revenue of its core businesses.
Non-Cash Items
o Non-GAAP operating income (loss). The use of this non-GAAP financial measure allows management to evaluate the operating results of the company's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of non-cash items including amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and interest expense. In addition, it is an important component of management's internal performance measurement process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to understand the results of operations of the company’s core businesses and to compare results of operations on a more co
nsistent basis against that of other companies in the industry.
o Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors and analysts to assess the company's operating results and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of non-cash items including amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, interest expense and net gains (losses) on mark-to-market derivative instruments related to its cash convertible debt offering and the tax effects of these non-GAAP adjustments. In addition, investors and analysts can compare SunPower's operating results on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in the industry. It should be noted that diluted weighted-average shares are determined on a GAAP basis and the resulting share count is used for computing both GAAP and Non-GAAP dilu
ted net income per share.
Non-Cash Items
o Amortization of intangible assets. SunPower incurs amortization of intangible assets as a result of acquisitions, which includes in-process research and development, patents, project assets, purchased technology and trade names. SunPower excludes these items because these expenses are not reflective of ongoing operating results in the period incurred. These amounts arise from prior acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the operation of SunPower’s core businesses.
o Stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation relates primarily to SunPower stock awards such as stock options and restricted stock. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are difficult to predict. As a result of this unpredictability, management excludes this item from its internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that non-GAAP measures adjusted for stock-based compensation provide investors with a basis to measure the company’s core performance against the performance of other companies without the variability created by stock-based compensation.
o Non-cash interest expense. SunPower separately accounted for the liability and equity components of its convertible debt issued in 2007 in a manner that reflected interest expense equal to its non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Under new accounting guidance effective in the first quarter of 2010, SunPower measured the two existing share lending arrangements entered into in connection with its convertible debt issued in 2007 at fair value and amortized the imputed share lending costs in current and prior periods. As a result, SunPower incurs interest expense that is substantially higher than interest payable on its 1.25% senior convertible debentures and 0.75% senior convertible debentures.
In addition, SunPower separately accounted for the initial fair value liabilities of the embedded cash conversion option and the over-allotment option on its senior cash convertible debt issued in the first quarter of 2010 as an original issue discount and a corresponding derivative conversion liability. As a result, SunPower incurs interest expense that is substantially higher than interest payable on its 4.5% senior cash convertible debentures. SunPower excludes non-cash interest expense because the expense is not reflective of its ongoing financial results in the period incurred. Excluding this data provides investors with a basis to compare the company’s performance against the performance of other companies without non-cash interest expense.
o Gains (losses) on mark-to-market derivative instruments. In connection with the issuance of its 4.5% senior cash convertible debentures in the first quarter of 2010, SunPower entered into certain convertible debenture hedge and warrant transactions with respect to its class A common stock intended to reduce the potential cash payments that would occur upon conversion of the debentures. The convertible debenture hedge and warrant transactions consisting of call option instruments are deemed to be mark-to-market derivatives during the period in which the cash convertible debt remains outstanding. In addition, the embedded cash conversion option of the debt is deemed to be a mark-to-market derivative instrument during the period in which the cash convertible debt remains outstanding. Finally, the over-allotment option in fa
vor of the debenture underwriters is deemed a mark-to-market derivative instrument during the period the over-allotment option remains unexercised.
SunPower excluded the $2.2 million net loss relating to the above mentioned derivative instruments from its non-GAAP results because it was not realized in cash and it is not reflective of the company’s ongoing financial results. Excluding this data provides investors with a basis to compare the company’s performance against the performance of other companies without a net non-cash loss on mark-to-market derivative instruments.
o Tax effect. This amount is used to present each of the amounts described above on an after-tax basis with the presentation of non-GAAP net income per share.
