Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 30, 2013, PowerSecure International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Innovative Electronic Solutions Lighting, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“IES”), sold certain assets, consisting of substantially all of IES’s manufacturing equipment and parts inventory, to Anuva Services, Inc., a North Carolina corporation. The sale of assets was in furtherance of the Company’s previously announced efforts to restructure and realign its operations to increase operating margins in its energy efficiency product and service lines in light of several recent acquisitions. The Company’s recent acquisition of Solais Lighting, Inc., a Delaware corporation, provided advanced manufacturing and sourcing capabilities which enabled the company to streamline its operations and sell its IES manufacturing equipment and parts inventory.

The Company continues to move forward with its previously disclosed plans to integrate and streamline the operations and product offerings within its energy efficiency product area primarily, and to a lesser extent other areas of the Company. These activities include eliminating certain duplicative facilities, re-sourcing from certain of its energy efficiency suppliers, reducing the number of energy efficiency product offerings, and streamlining its organization. The sale of assets by IES is part of these integration and streamlining activities.

The Company currently expects that this restructuring will result in a total charge in the range of approximately $4 to $6 million during the fourth quarter 2013 and the first quarter of 2014. In addition, this restructuring may result in additional charges related to goodwill or intangible impairment, the amount of which, if any, is not determinable at this time.
