Such statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties are described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including its 2012 Form 10-K and second quarter 2013 Form 10-Q, in addition to the risks and uncertainties described on page 19 of this presentation. These forward-looking statements represent the Company’s judgment as of the date of this presentation. The Company disclaims, however, any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements. This presentation also includes non-GAAP financial measures. You can find a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in our earnings press release filed on Form 8-K today with the SEC and posted in the Investor Relations portion of our web site at www.SunEdison.com.

Accordingly, our segment cash flow includes certain estimates and allocations and is therefore non-gaap. In addition to other key performance indicators, we evaluate the performance of the solar project business on the cash generation abilities of the projects which is best reflected in Free Cash Flow. Projects are typically financed at the inception of a lease, resulting in a gain on sale that is deferred and not immediately included in net income (loss). For direct sales, we sometimes finance these projects prior to sale in which our customers assume the debt upon sale. For our GAAP financial statements, debt proceeds are recorded as financing activities while costs to construct the solar energy systems are reflected as operating outflows.


 
Forward-Looking Statements 19 Certain matters discussed in this presentation and on the conference call are forward-looking statements, including the expected project completion MW quantities for the remainder of 2013 and 2014, the expected completion timeline for projects in our backlog, and that for the third quarter of 2013, the company expects Semiconductor Materials revenue to be between $230 million and $250 million, solar energy systems total non-GAAP sales volume to be in the range of 60 MW to 100 MW, solar energy systems MW retained on the balance sheet to be between 0 MW and 10 MW, fully developed solar energy systems average project pricing to be between $3.25/watt and $3.50/watt, and capital spending to be between $30 million and $40 million; that for the 2013 full year, the company expects Semiconductor Materials revenue to be between $940 million and $980 million, solar energy systems total non-GAAP sales volume to be in the range of 430 MW to 500 MW, solar energy systems MW retained on the balance sheet to be between 50 MW and 100 MW, total solar energy systems average project pricing to be between $3.10/watt and $3.40/watt, and capital spending to be between $120 million and $140 million. Such statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties include concentrated project development risks related to large scale solar projects; the availability of attractive project finance and other capital for SunEdison projects; market demand for our products and services; changes in the pricing environment for silicon wafers and polysilicon, as well as solar power systems; the availability and size of government and economic incentives to adopt solar power, including tax policy and credits and renewable portfolio standards; the ability to effectuate and realize the savings from the restructuring plan; our ability to maintain adequate liquidity and compliance with our debt covenants; the need to impair long lived assets or other intangible assets due to changes in the carrying value or realizability of such assets; the effect of any antidumping or countervailing duties imposed on photovoltaic cells and/or modules in connection with any trade complaints in the United States, Europe or elsewhere; the result of any Chinese government investigations of unfair trade practices in connection with polysilicon exported from the United States or South Korea into China; changes to accounting interpretations or accounting rules; existing or new regulations and policies governing the electric utility industry; our ability to convert SunEdison pipeline into completed projects in accordance with our current expectations; dependence on single and limited source suppliers; utilization of our manufacturing volume and capacity; the terms of any potential future amendments to or terminations of our long-term agreements with our solar wafer customers or any of our suppliers; general economic conditions, including interest rates; the ability of our customers to pay their debts as they become due; changes in the composition of worldwide taxable income and applicable tax laws and regulations, including our ability to utilize any net operating losses; failure of third-party subcontractors to construct and install our solar energy systems; quarterly fluctuations in our SunEdison business; the impact of competitive products and technologies; inventory levels of our customers; supply chain difficulties or problems; interruption of production; outcome of pending and future litigation matters; good working order of our manufacturing facilities; our ability to reduce manufacturing and operating costs; assumptions underlying management's financial estimates; actions by competitors, customers and suppliers; changes in the retail industry; damage to our brand; acquisitions of pipeline in our Solar Energy segment; changes in product specifications and manufacturing processes; changes in financial market conditions; changes in foreign economic and political conditions; changes in technology; changes in currency exchange rates and other risks described in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements represent the company’s judgment as of the date of this press release. The company disclaims, however, any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
