ADVANCED ENERGY INDUSTRIES, INC. AND PV POWERED, INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On May 3, 2010 (the “Merger Date” or “Acquisition Date”), Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (“Advanced Energy” or the “Company”) acquired PV Powered, Inc. (“PV Powered”), a privately-held Oregon corporation and a leading solar inverter company based in Bend, Oregon, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 24, 2010 between Advanced Energy, PV Powered and Neptune Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”), an Oregon corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Advanced Energy, and Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 21, 2010 (together with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub merged with and into PV Powered, with PV Powered being the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Advanced Energy (the “Merger” or “Acquisition”).
The acquisition of PV Powered enables Advanced Energy to offer the inverter market a more complete suite of products in all power ranges and increases the number of solar array opportunities for which the Company’s products can be considered for purchase.
Advanced Energy acquired all of the outstanding PV Powered common stock for total consideration with a fair value of approximately $89.6 million on the Acquisition Date consisting of approximately $36.0 million of cash, Advanced Energy common stock with a market value of approximately $14.7 million, and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of approximately $38.9 million as of the Acquisition Date.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet assumes that the Merger took place on March 31, 2010 and combines Advanced Energy’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet with PV Powered’s unaudited balance sheet as of March 31, 2010.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 assumes that the Merger took place on January 1, 2010, the first day of Advanced Energy’s fiscal year 2010. As such, Advanced Energy’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 has been combined with PV Powered’s unaudited statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 assumes that the Merger took place on January 1, 2009, the first day of Advanced Energy’s fiscal year 2009. As such, Advanced Energy’s audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 has been combined with PV Powered’s audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The historical consolidated financial information of Advanced Energy and PV Powered have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma

events that are (1) directly attributable to the Merger, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes thereto. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was based on and should be read in conjunction with the:
    Separate historical unaudited financial statements of Advanced Energy as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and the related notes included in Advanced Energy’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 6, 2010; and
 
    Separate historical audited financial statements of Advanced Energy as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the related notes included in Advanced Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2010; and
 
    Separate historical audited financial statements and related notes of PV Powered as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K; and
 
    Separate historical unaudited financial statements and related notes of PV Powered as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2010 included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the combined Company’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the Merger been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined Company. There were no material transactions between Advanced Energy and PV Powered during the periods presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements that needed to be eliminated.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under standards established by generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), which requires, among other things, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at their fair values at the Acquisition Date. The Company’s judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, can materially impact the Company’s results of operations. The finalization of the Company’s acquisition accounting assessment will result in changes in the valuation of assets and liabilities acquired which could be material. The Company will finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but in no event later than one year following the Acquisition Date. The purchase price allocation for PV Powered is preliminary in all respects. Adjustments are possible pertaining to the following, among other items:

2


 

    Inventories — pending finalization of valuation efforts for acquired inventories.
 
    Property, plant, and equipment — completion of physical observations of property, plant and equipment and valuation efforts to determine their fair value.
 
    Intangible assets — pending finalization of valuation efforts for acquired intangible assets.
 
    Goodwill — pending finalization of the purchase price allocation including valuation efforts for the contingent consideration liability and deferred taxes.
 
    Contingent consideration liability — pending the outcome of PV Powered’s fiscal 2010 financial results and the related cash earn-out payment by Advanced Energy in early 2011.
 
    Income tax contingencies, product liability and other reserves — completion of the assessment of these matters.
 
    Other income tax assets and liabilities.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined Company may achieve as a result of the Acquisition or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and potential revenue enhancements or the costs to combine the operations of Advanced Energy and PV Powered.

ADVANCED ENERGY INDUSTRIES, INC. AND PV POWERED, INC.
Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION
On May 3, 2010 (the “Merger Date” or “Acquisition Date”), Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (“Advanced Energy” or the “Company”) acquired PV Powered, Inc. (“PV Powered”), a privately-held Oregon corporation and a leading solar inverter company based in Bend, Oregon, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 24, 2010 between Advanced Energy, PV Powered and Neptune Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”), an Oregon corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Advanced Energy, and Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 21, 2010 (together with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub merged with and into PV Powered, with PV Powered being the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Advanced Energy (the “Merger” or “Acquisition”).
The acquisition of PV Powered enables Advanced Energy to offer the inverter market a more complete suite of products in all power ranges and increases the number of solar array opportunities for which the Company’s products can be considered for purchase.
Advanced Energy acquired all of the outstanding PV Powered common stock for total consideration with a fair value of approximately $89.6 million on the Acquisition Date consisting of approximately $36.0 million of cash, Advanced Energy common stock with a market value of approximately $14.7 million and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of approximately $38.9 million as of the Acquisition Date.
Shareholders of PV Powered received approximately $36.7 million of cash less certain closing date indebtedness plus approximately 0.86 shares of Advanced Energy common stock for each 100 shares of PV Powered common stock, options and warrants outstanding as of the Acquisition Date. The approximately 1.0 million shares of Advanced Energy common stock issued had a fair market value of $14.7 million, or $14.72 per share, based on the closing price of Advanced Energy’s common stock on April 30, 2010, the last trading day prior to the Acquisition Date. Fractional shares generated by the conversion were settled for cash. Additional cash consideration in an amount of up to $40.0 million is payable to the shareholders of PV Powered if certain financial targets are met during the year ended December 31, 2010. The fair value of the $40.0 million contingent consideration arrangement was estimated to be $39.0 million as of the Acquisition Date based on a projected cash payout of $39.4 million in January 2011.
NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Acquisition is accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The Company is accounting for the transaction by using Advanced Energy historical information and accounting policies and adding the assets and liabilities of PV Powered as of the Acquisition Date at their respective fair values. Under the acquisition method, the total purchase price (consideration transferred) as described in Note 3, Consideration Transferred, was measured as of the Acquisition Date using the market price of Advanced

Energy’s common stock at that time. The assets and liabilities of PV Powered have been measured at fair value based on various assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable utilizing information as of the Acquisition Date.
The process for measuring the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant assumptions, including future cash flows and appropriate discount rates. The excess of the purchase price (consideration transferred) over the amount of identifiable assets and liabilities of PV Powered as of the Acquisition Date was allocated to goodwill.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Additionally, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by market participants.
NOTE 3. CONSIDERATION TRANSFERED
The components of the fair value of the total consideration transferred for the PV Powered Acquisition on the Acquisition Date is as follows (in thousands):
         
Cash paid to owners

NOTE 4. ASSETS ACQUIRED AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED
Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value of PV Powered’s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities as of May 3, 2010, the Acquisition Date. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and intangible assets is recorded as goodwill. Advanced Energy has made a preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price based on the unaudited historical balance sheet of PV Powered as of May 3, 2010, and using estimates as described in the introduction to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements as follows (in thousands):

Advanced Energy has evaluated and continues to evaluate pre-acquisition contingencies related to PV Powered that may exist as of the Acquisition Date. If these pre-acquisition contingencies become probable in nature and estimable during the remainder of the purchase price allocation period, amounts will be recorded to Acquisition Date liabilities and goodwill for such matters. If these pre-acquisition contingencies become probable in nature and estimable after the end of the purchase price allocation period, amounts will be recorded for such matters in Advanced Energy’s results of operations.
