Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On January 18, 2012, MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release relating to the preliminary financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2011.  A copy of the press release is furnished with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
 
Management has determined that certain non-GAAP metrics for the Company’s SunEdison segment presented in the press release are the key metrics that will help investors understand the ultimate income and near-term cash flows generated by our SunEdison business.  These non-GAAP measures and metrics include deferrals required under GAAP real estate and lease accounting for some of SunEdison’s direct sales and or its sale-leaseback transactions.  In addition, management has determined that exclusion of the restructuring charges and the unfavorable tax consequences from the GAAP financial measures is desirable to allow investors to assess the operational results of the Company for the covered period.  For a complete description of our non-GAAP measures, see the non-GAAP reconciliation table furnished with this Form 8-K in Exhibit 99.1.
