SOLON Ohio, December 22, 2011 – Energy Focus, Inc. (OTC BB: EFOI.OB), a leader in providing LED energy efficient lighting solutions announced that it has provided more than 600 new light emitting diode (LED) lighting fixtures for installation on USS Chafee (DDG 90). The installation was performed during the ship’s recently completed availability, providing the ship with longer-lasting lights that use less electric power than the replaced incandescent and fluorescent light fixtures.

According to a recent Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) press release, “The new fixtures have a minimum 50,000-hour lifespan compared to the 1,000-hour incandescent globes and 7,500-hour fluorescents. The ship is expected to save more than $50,000 per year using the new lights… Savings are expected to exceed $100,000 per ship per year when the scope is expanded to include the T12 fluorescent fixtures … In early 2012, USS Preble (DDG 88) is expected to receive the same fixtures, as well as LED bulb replacements for the ship’s two-foot fluorescent fixtures, which are the most common lighting on DDG 51 class ships.” (See www.navsea.navy.mil/Newswire2011/08DEC11-02.aspx for additional details.)

“The 600 LED fixtures Energy Focus provided include fixtures using our IntelliTube™ single LED waveguide technology to replace fluorescent berth lights as well as a range of advanced LED globe lights to replace existing incandescent globe light fixtures,” said Roger Buelow, Energy Focus CTO. “Energy Focus has also received an order to provide its newly developed IntelliTube™ replacement LED tubes to retrofit both the USS Chafee’s and USS Preble T12 fluorescent fixtures, the second Navy ship to receive all new LED lighting. The cost savings are expected to be even greater since the fixture doesn’t need to be replaced.”

Joe Kaveski, Energy Focus CEO commented, “Energy Focus is delighted to provide the Navy its breakthrough IntelliTube LED lighting products for a complete lighting retrofit for the USS Chafee and USS Preble as we begin the process to provide advanced LED lighting aboard the whole range of combatant and amphibious ships over the next several years as part of the Navy’s maritime energy strategy.”

SOLON, Ohio, May 12, 2011—Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI) a global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, recently introduced a new LED Retrofit Kit designed to replace High Intensity Discharge (“HID”) lighting for existing Wallpack fixtures.
The LED Retrofit Kit, using only 31 watts, is designed to replace 175 W HID lamps consuming 210 watts for an energy savings of more than 179 watts.  “Our proprietary flexible thermal management system makes this product possible, allowing us to fit virtually all existing Wallpack installations,” commented Steve Gasperson, President of Energy Focus’ LED products division.

“Mounted at 15-20 foot heights on the outside of many industrial buildings Wallpack fixtures are difficult and expensive to reach,” continued Mr. Gasperson.  “As a result, burned out lamps often don’t get changed leaving the space poorly lit.  Equipped with versatile mounting brackets the unit can be centered and aimed in a multitude of existing fixtures, creating a simple and easy to install solid state lighting solution.  Energy Focus’ LED Retrofit Kit for Wallpacks offers a 50,000 hour life, which equates to about 10 years of maintenance-free illumination.”

Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus said, “We specifically designed this product for the retrofit market. Our LED Retrofit Kit typically pays for itself in one to two years as a result of its 85% energy savings, ten year life and low installed cost, making it the ideal solution for lighting retrofit projects.”

SOLON, Ohio, March 31, 2011—Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2010 and outlook for 2011. 
Financial and operating highlights for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2010 include the following:

• Fourth quarter 2010 net sales from continuing operations of $8.8 million increased 2.4 times fourth quarter 2009 net sales from continuing operations of $3.6 million.
• Annual sales from continuing operations in 2010 of $35.1 million increased 2.8 times 2009 net sales from continuing operations of $12.5 million.
• Cash increased $3.0 million for the full year 2010 ($1.5 million of which was net cash provided from continuing operations) versus a cash decrease of $9.5 million for 2009.  The Company finished the year with cash on hand of $4.1 million.
The outlook for the first quarter of 2011 and the full year of 2011 include the following:

• Sales to exceed $5 million in the first quarter.
• Cash usage in the first quarter of less than $3 million.
• Revenue from continuing operations (excluding potential acquisitions) of over $35 million for the full year.
• The Company expects net cash provided by continuing operations to be positive for the year.
“I’m very pleased by the 2010 performance of Stones River Companies (SRC), our new lighting solutions business.  With $19.8 million in net sales, SRC has exceeded our expectations by almost doubling its sales from its 2009 pre-acquisition base,” said Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “SRC generated 56% of our revenue for the year and was a key factor in the success of Energy Focus in 2010.”
“Our international lighting business, based out of the UK, which offers lighting products to the new construction market, continued to decline in 2010. We are keenly focused on re-establishing sales growth for this segment during 2011. However, it remains unclear at this point whether the economic cycle for international new construction will improve during the year.”
“We expect our lighting solutions business to continue to be a key factor in 2011, even though sales for the first quarter will be substantially lower than prior year due to the timing of contract work,” Mr. Kaveski added.  “Solutions based sales are expected to significantly increase beginning in the second quarter of 2011.  Furthermore, we see the military market emerging as a relevant sales channel in 2011 as evidenced by our recent orders from the US Navy.  Products based on IntelliTube™ technology, already embedded into our military products, are expected to be available for the existing building market in 2012.  Finally, Mr. Kaveski said, “as a direct result of our increasing margins and emphasis on further cost reductions, we anticipate net cash provided by continuing operations to again be positive for the year, an important factor contributing to our profitable growth.”
On Thursday, March 31, 2011 at 4:30 p.m. EDT (1:30 p.m. PDT), Energy Focus, Inc. will host a conference call to review the fourth quarter and full year 2010 financial results, followed by a Q & A session.

SOLON Ohio, March 16, 2011 – Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI), a leader in providing energy efficient lighting solutions, today announced that it recently received a $446,000 order to supply its recently qualified LED lighting fixtures to retrofit two US Navy destroyers. The products ordered include Energy Focus LED Berth lights using its proprietary IntelliTube™ technology to replace fluorescent T-5 fixtures at half the power as well as its LED globe products using state of the art white, yellow, red and blue LEDs to replace incandescent globe fixtures saving 80% or more of the energy. The products being supplied were developed and qualified under contracts from the Office of Naval Research (ONR) TechSolutions Program and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

“LED lights particularly make sense on destroyers,” said Roger Buelow, Energy Focus Chief Technology Officer and principal investigator for the ONR’s SSL project.  “The Navy calculates electrical energy costs at about 55 cents per kilowatt hour – or more than double the highest US residential or commercial rates.  In addition, the lights we designed for the Navy are extremely vibration resistant – a problem for both incandescent and fluorescent bulbs that the conversion to our SSL LED lights solves.”

“We are delighted to supply these additional US Navy ships with Energy Focus’ next generation LED SSL products”, said Joe Kaveski Energy Focus CEO.

SOLON Ohio, March 8, 2011 – Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI), a leader in providing energy efficient lighting solutions, today announced that it is now supplying four families of fixtures incorporating LED Solid State Lighting (SSL) to US Navy ships and submarines.  The products being supplied were developed under contracts from the Office of Naval Research (ONR) TechSolutions Program and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

According to a recent ONR release (http://www.onr.navy.mil/Media-Center/Press-Releases/2011/Solid-State-SSL-Techsolutions.aspx), Energy Focus SSL fixtures are being installed aboard several ships and submarines across the U.S. Navy including the USS New Hampshire (SSN-778), USS New Mexico (SSN 779), USS Pearl Harbor (LSD 52), USS Preble (DDG 88) and USS Chafee (DDG 90).  “Although the SSL is in its early stages,” the release states,”the LED fixtures are showing great promise. Not only are they a quality of life improvement, but compared with fluorescent lights, LED fixtures last longer. They are more efficient, reducing maintenance requirements, energy usage and costs associated with storage, handling and disposal. Long term, SSL usage fleetwide could add up to considerable savings and improved readiness… TechSolutions worked with Energy Focus to produce patented LED fixtures that are direct replacements for fluorescents. The replacements produce the same light output, but use half the power.”
“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.”
“We are pleased, working in collaboration with ONR and DARPA, to supply the US Navy with Energy Focus’ next generation LED SSL products”, said Joe Kaveski Energy Focus CEO.  “Reducing energy usage and maintenance requirements, eliminating mercury from the environment and providing improved quality of light are just as important to our military customers as they are to our civilian ones.”

SOLON Ohio, August 11, 2010 – Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI), a leader in providing energy efficient lighting solutions, today announced that its research and development team has recently been selected to receive a Phase II Department of Energy (DOE) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award totaling $1.0 Million to develop advanced coatings capable of enhancing the performance of both energy efficient lighting and solar systems. 

Roger Buelow, Energy Focus CTO commented. “We’re excited about the award continuing our longstanding relationship with DOE. The Phase II SBIR work awarded is based on our success in Phase I and the huge potential of Sol-Gel coatings.  This project has a nice overlay for both our Intellitube™ and Solar program efforts.  In the world of energy efficient lighting, these kinds of coatings should allow us to increase efficiency of our LED lighting solutions 4-10% by applying a low cost affordable coating versus an uncoated approach.  Similar gains are possible in our high performance solar systems.  The net result is superior lighting performance at reduced energy cost.”

Joseph Kaveski, CEO, Energy Focus, added: “We are pleased to announce the additional $1.0 million grant landed by Roger and his team. While significant in itself, this new funding is only a fraction of the government sponsored R&D we’ve already received for work in 2010.  We’re especially pleased that the work aligns well with our current efforts to develop next generation energy efficient lighting and solar systems.”

Solon, OH – January 26, 2010 – Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI), a leader in providing energy efficient lighting solutions, announced today that its research and development team recently received three LED lighting awards totaling $1.6 million.  Two of these awards, “Explosion-Proof Solid State Lighting for Extreme Environments” and “A Spectrally Dynamic Berth Light for Active Circadian Cycle Management” are Phase 2 Small Business Innovation Research (“SBIR”) grants from the Defense Research Projects Agency (“DARPA”).  The third award, “Innovative Solid State Lighting Replacements for Industrial and Test Facility Locations,” is a Phase 1 Small Business Technology Transfer (“STTR”) program grant received from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”).

Roger Buelow, Energy Focus CTO commented. “We’re excited about the two additional awards from DARPA continuing our longstanding relationship. The STTR award is particularly exciting since it’s the first grant we’ve received from NASA. The first DARPA award, for the development of explosion-proof lights for shipboard use, also covers advanced driver development. These lights will be able to qualify for Class 1 Division 1 explosion proof standards for civilian use, which opens up a significant new market for Energy Focus. The second DARPA award is for development of circadian rhythm enhanced lights for the Navy. These lights adjust their spectrum throughout the day to improve sleep patterns and productivity. For the military, this is especially important for warfighters whose duties include 24-hour operational readiness. The third award, from NASA, is to replace existing test stand and parking lot fixtures with high performance LED lighting including high performance explosion-proof lights.”

Joseph Kaveski, CEO, Energy Focus added: “We are pleased to announce the additional $1.6 million in grants landed by Roger and his team. While significant, this new funding is only a fraction of the government sponsored R&D we’ve already received for work in 2010.  We’re especially pleased to begin the development of a new generation of lighting products that enhance health and wellness as well as provide energy efficiency.  Energy Focus is proud to support our country with these significant projects. In addition, we expect the results of these projects to lead to both increased product sales as well as increased specification opportunities for our lighting retrofit business.”

If the Company does not regain compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) by May 11, 2010, the Company may be notified that its securities are subject to delisting.  At that time, the Company may appeal NASDAQ’s determination to delist its securities to a Hearings Panel.  Alternatively, the Company also may consider applying to transfer its securities to The NASDAQ Capital Market if it satisfies the requirements for initial inclusion set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5505, with the exception of the bid price.  If its application is approved, the Company will be afforded the remainder of The NASDAQ Capital Market’s second 180 calendar day grace period in order to regain compliance while on The NASDAQ Capital Market.

SOLON, Ohio, November 16, 2009—Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009. 

Financial and operating highlights include the following: 

• Net sales from continuing operations of $3.0 million for the third quarter 2009 decreased 9.1%, with respect to second quarter 2009 net sales from continuing operations of $3.3 million and 47.4% versus third quarter 2008 net sales from continuing operations of $5.7 million. 

• Cash utilization increased during the third quarter of 2009 to $2.3 million, compared to $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2009 and a cash accretion of $193,000 for the third quarter of 2008. The company finished the third quarter with cash in the amount of $3.3 million (which includes $0.2 million of cash belonging to its German subsidiary, which has been classified as discontinued operations in its consolidated financial statements) and total shareholders’ equity of $9.5 million.

• The net loss in the quarter was $2.7 million ($0.17 per share) compared to a net loss of $2.3 million ($0.16 per share) in the second quarter of 2009, an increase of $269,000.

• Operating expenses were reduced $181,000 (net of a restructuring expense of $125,000) for the quarter compared to the second quarter of 2009 and $428,000, or 13.4% compared to the third quarter of 2008.  Continued reductions in expenses are expected in Q4.

“Sales are running about 47% year over year and, unfortunately, are not expected to improve soon given that the principal source of these sales is our legacy businesses that are so dependent on new residential and commercial construction - in particular our pool business that is tied strongly to new construction in the residential housing market”, said Joe Kaveski, Energy Focus CEO.  “This underlines the appropriateness of our strategy to exit these businesses and refocus the company’s resources to provide turnkey lighting energy services to the growing public sector existing building market.”

“We spent $2.3 million cash this quarter which included expenses of about $1.0 million for restructuring and debt pay down, as well as legal and accounting fees associated with our rights offering, acquisition and divestiture efforts. Cash use for normal operations of $1.3 million declined about $100,000 compared to the last quarter due to continued reductions in overhead,” continued Mr. Kaveski.  “Cash usage for normal operations is expected to continue to decline in the fourth quarter with continued improvements in efficiency.”

“In addition we’ve made significant progress on our plan to acquire a lighting retrofit business with the successful completion of our rights offering which will provide funding for the acquisition,” added Mr. Kaveski.  “We’ve recently received an additional $3.2 million in new government contracts and have made our first sales through the GSA Federal Supply Schedule.”

SOLON, Ohio, October 29, 2009 - Energy Focus Inc., a global leader in energy efficient lighting, announced today that it has entered into a $100,000, twelve month contract with the DuPont-University of Delaware Very High Efficiency Solar Cell (VHESC) Consortium as part of a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)-funded effort to deliver advanced solar research to enable high efficiency, low cost photovoltaics.

“We are pleased to receive the additional funding” said Roger Buelow, Energy Focus Chief Technology Officer. “The added effort will be directed toward utilizing our photovoltaic coating technologies to achieve low cost efficient “spectrum splitting.”

“This brings this phase of our solar program funding to $3.2 million.  We are pleased with both DARPA’s and the VHESC consortium’s confidence in us to deliver as this funding level reflects,” said Joe Kaveski, Energy Focus CEO.  “We are proud to be part of the team that we believe will make efficient, affordable solar panels a reality for the military and for all Americans.”

DARPA recently began the second two-year phase of a four-year program with the VHESC Consortium to raise the system power efficiency of a new class of solar modules to 40 percent and deliver engineering prototype modules that can be readily manufactured.

The modules under development by the VHESC team use an advanced optical “spectrum splitting” system that directs light from the sun into different paths corresponding to the color of the light, and concentrates the light onto photovoltaic cells that cover different segments of the solar spectrum.

DARPA is developing the VHESC solar module technology for compact renewable energy to power both permanent and mobile bases, as well as to reduce the considerable logistical burden of supplying energy (e.g., batteries and fuel) to the U.S. military in the field.

Order placed through through GSA Federal Supply Schedule. Lighting to Provide Energy Efficient security and area lighting for Minnesota Air National Guard

Solon, OH – October 7, 2009 – Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI), a leader in providing energy efficient lighting solutions, today announced it received a $256,000 order from the Departments of the Army and Air Force to provide efficient area and security lighting for the Minnesota Air National Guard . The order for state-of-the-art LED lighting fixtures is expected to be fulfilled in October.

Joseph Kaveski, CEO, Energy Focus, Inc. said:  “We are delighted to be able to provide these efficient, long lived, LED outdoor lighting fixtures to the US Government.” Mr. Kaveski continued, “These high-tech LED luminaires use only a fraction of the energy of the conventional High Intensity Discharge (HID) fixtures typically used in outdoor area and security applications. In addition, LEDs offer “instant on” with no re-strike delay, perform in the coldest temperatures, are vibration and impact resistant and contain no mercury or lead.”

Energy Focus Inc. sees this order as further evidence that the general lighting market is ready to accept this new technology. While LEDs have been in use for almost 10 years for specialty lighting applications, it has only been in the last 2 years that LEDs have emerged as viable alternatives to existing general lighting technologies. The recent stimulus plan put into place by President Obama is further putting LED and other energy efficient technologies on the forefront. With Government agencies being early adopters, the commercial lighting market is expected to follow in adopting these technologies.

“Spectrum splitting” optical approach seen as key to achieving Very High Efficiency Solar Cell (VHESC) Consortium’s efficiency and cost objectives

SOLON, Ohio, September 24, 2009 - Energy Focus Inc. (Nasdaq: EFOI), a global leader in energy efficient lighting, announced today that it has entered into a $3.1M, two-year contract with the DuPont-University of Delaware Very High Efficiency Solar Cell (VHESC) Consortium as part of a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)-funded effort to deliver advanced solar research to enable high efficiency, low cost photovoltaics.

“Energy Focus’ role on the VHESC program during the initial phase of the effort helped pave the way for the developments to date. We’re proud to be a member of such an accomplished team,” said Roger Buelow, Energy Focus’ Chief Technology Officer.

“A key part of our company’s vision is to be able to provide distributed, low cost energy that enables buildings to be completely off grid. It is our hope that this research will make that a reality for the military and for all Americans,” added Joe Kaveski, CEO.

DARPA recently began the second two-year phase of a four-year program with the VHESC Consortium to raise the system power efficiency of a new class of solar modules to 40 percent and deliver engineering prototype modules that can be readily manufactured.

The modules under development by the VHESC team use a novel optical “spectrum splitting” system that directs light from the sun into different paths corresponding to the color of the light, and concentrates the light onto photovoltaic cells that cover different segments of the solar spectrum.

DARPA is developing the VHESC solar module technology for compact renewable energy to power both permanent and mobile bases, as well as to reduce the considerable logistical burden of supplying energy (e.g., batteries and fuel) to the U.S. military in the field.

SOLON, Ohio, August 19, 2009-- Energy Focus, Inc. (Nasdaq: EFOI), a global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, announced today that it has been awarded a $0.5 million SBIR extension grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop and produce solid state lighting fixtures for general use on Navy ships. The new fixtures will replace 50 and 110 Watt water tight incandescent fixtures now in use. With the addition of these new fixtures Energy Focus Inc. will be able to offer energy efficient, long-life LED lighting alternatives to replace both incandescent and fluorescent systems across the entire Navy fleet. Utilizing its proprietary Ultra Low Distortion Solid State Power Supply technology, the fixtures to be developed over the next 11 months will replace inefficient incandescent fixtures. Beyond efficiency, life, and maintenance specifications, the fixtures must meet the Navy's new stringent requirements for LED systems which include light output, shock and vibration, corrosion, EMC and EMI compliance, “The SSL lights developed under this grant will save a significant amount of energy and maintenance. As an example, using only 26 watts, a new LED fixture saves 76% (or 84W) over the incandescent fixture it replaces. In addition, we fully expect that bulb replacement will become a thing of the past with the LEDs' projected lifetime of up to 50,000 hours or more,” commented Roger Buelow, Energy Focus CTO. “With the addition of this $0.5 million grant, the Department of Defense has now awarded Energy Focus $1.9 million to develop energy efficient LED lighting for the US Navy. We are both proud and pleased to be selected to make a difference in the future of lighting for the United States military,” said Joe Kaveski, Energy Focus CEO. “We pledge, too, that Energy Focus' incandescent replacement LED technology will go beyond military applications, saving energy for the country as a whole in broad commercial applications providing energy efficient, mercuryfree, long-life alternatives to the incandescent bulbs which the US is phasing out beginning in 2012.”

SOLON, Ohio, August 13, 2009—Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009.

Financial and operating highlights include the following: 
— Net sales at $3.8 million for the second quarter 2009 increased 36.0%, with respect to first quarter 2009 sales of $2.8 million.  However, this was a decrease of 49.9% versus the second quarter in 2008. 
— Cash utilization was markedly reduced during the second quarter of 2009 to $1.2 million, compared to $3.8 million for the first quarter of 2009 and $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2008. The company finished the second quarter with a balance sheet showing cash of $5.6 million, and total shareholders' equity of $11.9 million.  . 
— The net loss in the quarter was $2.3 million ($0.16 per share) compared to the net loss of 3.0 million ($0.21 per share) in the first quarter of 2009, an improvement of $0.7 million.
— Operating expenses were reduced $229,000 (net of a non-cash charge for impairment of fixed assets of $165,000) for the quarter compared to the first quarter of 2009 and $1.0 million or 24.0% compared to the second quarter of 2008.  Continued reductions in expenses are expected in Q3 and Q4

“While the business environment remains extremely challenging and our sales are lower when compared to 2008, I am nonetheless encouraged to see sales improving quarter over quarter,” said Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “I would also like to report that we are making good progress towards accelerating our transformation out of the residential and new construction markets and into the existing building market.  The company has retained a broker to aggressively market its legacy businesses.

Solon, OH July 8, 2009 Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFOI), a global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, today announced that it is offering a 2, 3, and 4 lamp LED Parking Garage Fixture using its newest LED lighting solution energy efficient LED Light Tubes aimed directly at addressing President Obama and Energy Secretary Chu's recent challenge to reduce America's energy consumption for lighting to less than the current 7% of overall energy consumption.

Gerritt Reinders, Energy Focus' VP of Solutions Sales, commented:  “Using only about half the power of conventional fluorescent fixtures and about one third that of conventional metal halide fixtures our new retrofit product offers all the advantages of LED lighting controllability, low maintenance and full output even at the coldest temperatures but with an important difference: Energy Focus' product can do it at only a fraction of the cost of 1st generation “high power” LED approaches.”

“The “secret,” Joe Kaveski, Energy Focus' CEO said, “is in using 200 low power, but highly efficient LEDs to distribute both the light and heat over the length of the four foot tube.  That approach neatly solves the thermal problems normally associated with high output LED solutions without expensive heat sinks while allowing us to incorporate much of the hardware that's been devolved over the years for fluorescent.”

“Energy and maintenance savings are equally as important as first cost in creating a sustainable solution,” Mr. Kaveski continued.  “Because our LED Parking Garage solution can pay for itself and generate significant savings over its long life even without considering rebates, we expect the strong interest we've received from pre-viewing the new line of fixtures with customers only to increase as the government's stimulus projects come on line later this year.  In particular, we believe by offering an LED solution that's both affordable and efficient that we've addressed GSA Acting Administrator Paul Prouty's February call to convert parking garages to LED lighting.”

SOLON, Ohio, March 25, 2009-- Energy Focus, Inc. (Nasdaq: EFOI), a global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, announced today that it has been selected by the DOD (Department of Defense) to receive a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research ("SBIR") Grant to begin the development of a “Solid State Infrared Replacement for M-278 Flare” for the US Army's Hydra Rocket system.

“EFOI is honored to have been selected to conduct this important research.  We are confident that we can build upon our advanced thermal and optical technology to produce the best system for the United States' Soldiers.” says Roger Buelow, CTO at Energy Focus Inc. The operational difficulties of the present system are related to the poorly controlled chemical combustion nature of the source. A solid state LED-based technology upgrade is ideal as it does not generate high internal temperatures, has high reliability, and can be engineered to radiate no energy outside the desired band (700-1100 nm).

“The technical challenges presented by the Army are tremendous, but at the end we will have made breakthroughs that should unlock the next generation of LED lighting.” notes Laszlo Takacs, Director or R&D. The operational benefits of the LED Infrared flare include higher ignition reliability, little or no visible light output, and no risk of fires started on the ground or at the parachute components. LEDs operate with higher reliability than other light sources and with much greater safety than incendiary sources. Use of the LED would also provide a more consistent output both in power and in duration. Most significantly, the system would emit little or no visible light at all.

“This selection is another in a long string of examples of how Energy Focus Inc.'s technology and product focus is making a difference in the future of the United States Military.” says Joe Kaveski, CEO.

— Fourth quarter revenues were $4,140,000, a 23.9% decrease over sales in the fourth quarter of 2007 of $5,440,000.  The net loss in the quarter was $7,776,000 ($0.52 per share) compared to the net loss of $3,666,000 ($0.31 per share) in the fourth quarter of 2007.
— Included in the 2008 net loss is a non-cash expense of $4,305,000 for the impairment of goodwill. Also included in the 2008 net loss is total expense in the amount of $1,071,000 related to the modification of the definition of slow-moving and obsolete inventory.  Management deemed this modification appropriate as technology changes within the lighting industry continues to accelerate.  Pro forma net loss without these transactions would have decreased to $2,400,000 ($0.16 per share) for the quarter and $9,072,000 ($0.64 per share) for 2008.
— The company finished the year with a balance sheet showing cash at $10,568,000 and total shareholders' equity of $16,789,000, which includes $9,335,000 received March 14, 2008 from an equity financing, net of expenses.  Cash utilization for the year was $7,486,000 compared to $7,556,000 for 2007.
— Operating expenses, net of the $4,305,000 goodwill impairment in 2008, decreased by 11.1%, $1,984,000, for the year compared to 2007.  Operating expenses declined by 25.5%, $1,093,000, for the quarter (excluding impairment charges).
— Energy Efficient EFO sales increased to $10,888,000, for the year, compared to $7,011,000 for 2007, an increase of 55.3%.
— The Company expects to receive a “going concern” opinion from its independent auditor, Grant Thornton, LLP.

“I continue to be encouraged by our 55% increase in energy efficient product sales in spite of an extremely difficult global economy”, said Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “While I believe this difficult environment will continue into 2009, I also believe Energy Focus should clearly benefit as funds become available from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 which emphasizes energy efficient lighting and green buildings.  Moreover, I believe that our drive to transform the Company into a comprehensive lighting energy solutions provider could not have been timed better.  Our new solutions sales team and new energy-efficient products are perfectly positioned to address the opportunities created by our country's renewed emphasis on creating energy efficient green buildings.  Providing turnkey energy efficient lighting solutions will be the foundation of the Company's viability in 2009 and provide for growth in 2010 and beyond.  However, the company continues to aggressively reduce costs with year over year expense reductions at about $2 million dollars in 2008 with comparable reductions expected in 2009.”

SOLON, Ohio, Dec.30—Energy Focus, Inc., a global leader in energy efficient lighting solutions, today announced that the company has installed high efficiency lighting fixtures to retrofit 100% of the high-bay lighting in a hangar deck on board an Arleigh Burke class Destroyer.  The new EFO LED lights are part of a continuing effort to reduce energy and maintenance costs. The fixtures and underlying technology were developed under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) High Efficiency Distributed Lighting (HEDLight) program.  This installation follows a year long demonstration on board naval vessels that replaced existing fluorescent, incandescent, and halogen lighting with various HEDLight lighting solutions.

The developed lighting solutions incorporate solid state lighting technology.  The fixtures include long life high efficiency light emitting diodes (LED) globe fixtures with a power savings of up to 87%, and LED berth lights for general berthing compartments which provide a 14% power savings.  All fixtures were designed to be direct replacements to eliminate retrofit concerns and reduce installation costs.

“The improvement in visibility and amount of light in the work area is as impressive as the energy and maintenance savings,” said Roger Buelow, CTO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “These 60 lumen per watt fixtures, operating at more than four times the efficiency of the ones they replaced, give the sailors more and better light to work under.  In addition we expect the new LED lights to continue working without failure for many years to come.  DARPA's support was instrumental in accelerating this technology to allow us to help the Fleet reduce its maintenance woes and fuel costs while improving the sailor's visibility.”

“Our nations' Fleet is currently illuminated with 1950's lighting technology.  LED lighting on this Arleigh Burke class Destroyer is an important step towards the Navy's beginning to retrofit the entire fleet,” said Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus, Inc.

SOLON, Ohio, December 17, 2008-- Energy Focus, Inc. (Nasdaq: EFOI), a global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, announced today that the company's proposal to develop advanced berth lighting systems has been selected by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program.  Under the project, entitled “A Spectrally Dynamic Berth Light for
Active Circadian Cycle Management,’’ Energy Focus will further develop solid state lighting technology for a naval berth light that will effectively reset a sailor's body clock for environments where the natural circadian rhythm is frequently disrupted. 

“Each sailor has a berth light for use in his or her personal space but current berth lights are based on 50 year fluorescent technology having a fixed spectral output,” said Roger Buelow, CTO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “Biomedical research suggests that by dynamically augmenting the lighting spectrum with controlled amounts of blue light, it may be possible to make more effective readjustments to a sailor's sleep schedule and thus enable the sailor to better meet operational needs with less fatigue and improved safety.  Energy Focus's LED light source and optical delivery system are ideal for this application.”

“Improving operational conditions for the warfighter is a key goal of Energy Focus,” said Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “We have particularly focused on the lighting needs of naval vessels, from illuminating large helicopter bays to brightening the close quarters of the sailor's sleeping berth with the goal of providing superior lighting that is inherently safe, energy efficient, and cost effective.  Being selected for a DARPA SBIR in this area is a testament to the success of our strategy.”

Unlike traditional incandescent or fluorescent lighting systems, Energy Focus utilizes EFO-LED technology to provide energy efficient bright lighting from a solid state LED source.  With the SBIR contract, Energy Focus will work on further development of the technology with the US Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM).

DARPA is the central research and development organization for the Department of Defense (DoD). It manages and directs selected basic and applied research and development projects for DoD, and pursues research and technology where risk and payoff are both very high and where success may provide dramatic advances for traditional military roles and missions.

SOLON, Ohio, November 18, 2008-- Energy Focus, Inc. (Nasdaq: EFOI), a global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, announced today that the company's proposal to develop Explosion Proof LED fixtures has been selected by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program. Under the project, titled ‘’Explosion-Proof Solid State Lighting Fixture for Extreme Environments.’’, Energy Focus will further develop solid state lighting fixtures.

“Adding explosion proof fixtures to our offering of fluorescent and incandescent replacement fixtures is an important step in decreasing energy usage and maintenance requirements for the US Fleet,” said Roger Buelow, CTO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “With our LED fixtures delivering over 60 lumens per watt for 5 years, we can now envision a Fleet with all solid-state lighting.”

“Energy Focus has been working with DARPA over the past several years to develop advanced lighting systems that meet the extreme demands of our military,” said Joe Kaveski, CEO of Energy Focus, Inc.  “This SBIR confirms our ongoing strategy to develop a broad range of military applications for Energy Focus's rugged solid state lighting systems.”

Unlike traditional incandescent or fluorescent lighting systems that can be compromised in battle situations, the Energy Focus system utilizes EFO-LED technology that provides energy efficient bright light from a solid state LED source.  With the SBIR contract, Energy Focus will work on further development of the technology with the US Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM).

DARPA is the central research and development organization for the Department of Defense (DoD). It manages and directs selected basic and applied research and development projects for DoD, and pursues research and technology where risk and payoff are both very high and where success may provide dramatic advances for traditional military roles and missions.

Mr. Kaveski added, “We are excited by the changes taking place at Energy Focus and look forward to further enhancing our value, both to our shareholders and to our customers.”

(Nasdaq: EFOI - News), the global leader in energy-efficient lighting technologies, today launched the company’s new and updated website, http://www.energyfocusinc.com. The new site, which features many product application images and gives visitors a visual image of Energy Focus’s unique vision of sustainable lighting, is designed as a gateway to the company’s full breadth of energy efficient lighting solutions.

SOLON, Ohio, May 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/—Energy Focus, Inc. (Nasdaq: EFOI - News) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2008.

Financial and operating highlights include the following:

* Revenues for the first quarter of 2008 were $4.8 million, a decrease of 3% over sales of $5.0 million for the same quarter in 2007. The net loss in the quarter was $3.4 million ($0.28 per share) compared to the net loss of $2.6 million ($0.23 per share) in the first quarter of 2007.

* The company finished the year with a balance sheet showing cash at $14.8 million and total shareholders equity of $28.1 million, which included $9.4 million, received March 17, 2008 from an equity financing, net of expenses. Cash utilization for the first quarter of 2008 was $3.2 million, compared to $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2007.

* Operating expenses increased by 11%, $468,000, for the quarter. Much of the increase is attributable to the timing of R&D expenses. However, management expects the company to obtain full benefit of these contract cost recoveries by Q4 2008.

* EFO® sales increased to $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2008 compared to $1.1 million in 2007.

* The company is holding to a previously forecast doubling of EFO® sales in 2008 as compared to 2007, with EFO® sales accounting for about 50% of EFOI’s revenue in 2008 of which approximately 40% of EFO® sales expected in the first half and approximately 60% expected in second half. As previously forecast, traditional product sales are also expected to continue to decline by about 15% over the course of the year.

John Davenport, president of Energy Focus, Inc., said, “First quarter revenues, declining 3% over Q1 2007 revenues, showed a significant improvement in the quarter compared to the 24% decline experienced in Q4 2007. EFO sales at $2.1 million were up about $1.0 million in the quarter offsetting forecast traditional product declines that were led by declines in our pool sales. EFO sales now account for 44% of the company’s revenues, compared to 39% of revenues in the fourth quarter.” Mr. Davenport continued, “We expect to continue to see strong quarter over quarter growth in EFO sales through 2008 overcoming forecast declines in our traditional product sales. We are particularly encouraged by our sales growth through our new distribution partners.”

Eric Hilliard, Chief Operating Officer said, “Energy Focus’s continued pursuit of operational efficiency initiatives for 2008 have shown further improvements as seen in the reduction of working capital. Additionally, the first quarter showed much progress in our distribution alliances with our new EFO®-LED products for commercial and industrial markets. Our fiscal outlook is promising for these new products and EFOI is encouraged to continue its EFO® product development for applications in this market. Moreover, EFOI continues to pursue opportunities into the US Government channel. We now have an installation of EFO®-ICE for freezer case applications on test with a United States Commissary. Finally, our first quarter is in line with our expectations for delivering the first half of 2008 as planned with 40% of EFO® product sales for our 2008 forecast being met.”

Energy Focus, Inc. management will host a conference call on May 8, 2008 at 11:30 a.m. EDT (8:30 a.m. PDT) to review the first quarter 2008 financial results and other corporate events, followed by a Q & A session.
