Real Goods Solar Files Form 12b-25
Louisville – August 15, 2016-Real Goods Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: RGSE) (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or similar) today filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (”SEC”) for an extension of time for the filing of its quarterly report on SEC Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2016 (the “Form 10-Q”).
On April 1, 2016, the Company issued $10 million of its Senior Subordinated Notes due April 1, 2016 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued as part of a unit which also contained a warrant to acquire shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The Company, recognizing that the Notes are complex financial instruments which included embedded derivatives as defined under Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging, retained a third party appraisal firm to determine the fair value of this financial instrument for the Company’s financial reporting. The Company has been working with the appraisal firm and the Company’s independent auditing firm to complete its review of the fair values for this financial instrument. As of August 15, 2015, due to the inherent complexities involved in the valuation process, the Company is in the process of determining the related adjustments and performing all internal reviews and, accordingly, the Company believes it cannot timely file its Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 without unreasonable effort or expense.
As a result of the issue described above, the Company filed the Form 12b-25 described above. Pursuant to SEC regulations, the Company is now required to file its report on Form 10-Q on or before Monday, August 22, 2016. The Company anticipates that it will file its Form 10-Q within that time period.
The Company’s results from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 are expected to reflect total revenue of $4.9 million versus $14.7 million for the same period in 2015. The Company’s loss from operations in the three months ended June 30, 2016, is anticipated to be $3.0 million versus a loss from operations of $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.
The Company’s results from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016, are expected to reflect total revenue of $9.8 million versus $25.3 million for the same period in 2015. The Company’s loss from operations in the six months ending June 30, 2016 is anticipated to be $6.7 million versus a loss from operations of $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015.
The Company also anticipates that its reported results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016, will show a material decrease in change in derivative liabilities versus the prior year three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Depending on the results of the derivative valuation process described above, the Company’s net loss for the three and six months ending June 30, 2016 is anticipated to be materially increased compared to the same periods in 2015.
