Bei stockhouse. ca findest Du sie unter dem Symbol T.DFE

Oder frage mit dem Namen unter "Day4 energy" ab (ist dort so geschrieben).

Wie bist Du denn auf den Wert aufmerksam geworden ?

[clemania2000]

Hallo,

danke. Inzwischen gibts auch ne ISIN, somit kann ich über ne Order direkt in Toronto kaufen.

Hört sich blöd an, aber ein Bekannter kennt jemand der dort arbeitet. Und anscheinend hat die Firma erhebliches Potenzial.

Ich mach mich noch ein bißchen schlauer und werde ne erste kleine Position aufbauen. Mal schauen wie es nächstes Jahr läuft.

Gruß und guten Rutsch!

Day4 Energy schliesst 1 MW Solarprojekt mit deutschem Energieversorgungsunternehmen EnBW ab
Burnaby, British Columbia (ots/PRNewswire) - - Versorgungsvertrag über PV Module für zusätzliche Projekte in Deutschland in 2009 und 2010 verlängert

Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), ein führender Hersteller von kostengünstigen Hochleistungsmodulen zur Nutzung von Solarenergie, gab heute bekannt, dass die ersten zwei Betriebsmonate des 1 Megawatt (MW) Solarenergieprojekts mit EnBW, einem der grössten Energieversorgungsunternehmen Deutschlands, erfolgreich abgeschlossen wurden. Die Photovoltaik(PV)-Anlage, die den deutschen Landkreis Sigmaringen mit zuverlässiger, erneuerbarer Energie versorgt, ist die derzeit grösste Anlage für beide Unternehmen. Aufgrund der erfolgreichen Fertigstellung und des günstigen vorläufigen Leistungsverhaltens des Systems hat EnBW seinen Vertrag mit Day4 verlängert und zwei zusätzliche Grossprojekte angesetzt, die 2009 und 2010 fertiggestellt werden sollen.

"Wir haben uns für Day4 Energy entschieden, da die Solarmodule des Unternehmens äusserst leistungsfähig, von bester Qualität und höchst zuverlässig sind, was bei einem Projekt wie diesem kritische Faktoren für die Erzielung langfristiger Renditen sind", sagte Tim Morath, Produktmanager für Solaranlagen bei EnBW Regional AG. "Mit seinem beeindruckenden Arbeitsplan, der uns in nur drei Monaten von der Grundsteinlegung bis zur Inbetriebnahme brachte, hat Day4 Energy gezeigt, dass es sowohl die Produktqualität, als auch das betriebliche Fachwissen besitzt, das EnBW dabei unterstützt, unsere aggressiven Zielvorgaben im Bereich der Solarenergie zu erreichen."

Das Solarenergieprojekt in Riggenbach, Deutschland, wurde im Oktober 2007 bei einer Einweihungsfeier, an der die Umweltschutzministerin von Baden-Württemberg, Tanja Gonner, anwesend war, feierlich in Betrieb genommen. Die deutsche Projektmanagement-Tochtergesellschaft von Day4 Energy, Day4 Systems, lieferte die über 6.200 hoch-effizienten Day4 48 MC Solarmodule für die Kollektoren, die auf einer 2,3 Hektar grossen Fläche auf einer ehemaligen Deponie aufgestellt wurden. Das System erzeugt genügend saubere Energie, um den Jahresbedarf von 300 deutschen Häusern abzudecken, und erzielt eine Reduzierung des Kohlendioxidausstosses von etwa 750 Tonnen pro Jahr, was in etwa dasselbe ist, als ob man 469 deutsche Autos pro Jahr von der Strasse nähme.

"Ausgehend von den ausgezeichneten Leistungsdaten der Solaranlage in den ersten zwei Betriebsmonaten erwarten wir, dass wir bedeutend mehr Elektrizität erzeugen können, als die geplanten 1 Million kWh pro Jahr. Aufgrund dieser Daten, und dem Tempo und dem Professionalismus des Day4 Energy Teams, können wir es kaum erwarten, unsere Zusammenarbeit durch die Installation der zweiten und dritten Projektphase weiter zu vertiefen", sagte Thomas Leibinger, Umweltschutzbeauftragter des Landkreises Sigmaringen.

"Die Fertigstellung dieses Projekts und die Verlängerung unseres Vertrags mit EnBW, einem der bedeutendsten Unternehmen im deutschen Energiesektor, festigt Day4 Energys wachsende Präsenz in dem so wichtigen deutschen Solarenergiemarkt", sagte George Rubin, Präsident und COO von Day4 Energy. "Das ausgezeichnete Leistungsverhalten unserer Module und der Anlage im allgemeinen ist von grösster Bedeutung. Letztendlich dreht sich für den Endverbraucher alles nur um Leistung vor Ort, kWh und Renditen."

BURNABY, British Columbia, Dec. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Day4 Energy Inc., a leading manufacturer of high performance, cost-effective solar electric modules, today announced that the California Energy Commission (CEC) has re-evaluated the company's Day4 48 MC modules and ranked its highest performance modules within the top five percent of the most efficient crystalline silicon products that qualify for the California Solar Initiative rebate program.

"Day4 Energy was founded on the highest standards of performance, quality and cost efficiency. Just one year after introducing product to market, milestone qualifications like IEC and UL certifications place Day4 Energy firmly among the premier global providers of solar energy modules," said Prof. Leonid Rubin, CTO for Day4 Energy. "This most recent evaluation by the CEC confirms the in-house findings of our own scientific team: that the Day4 Electrode manufacturing technology delivers an outstanding product and excellent performance at lower production and materials costs."

In order to qualify for California's solar rebate program, the CEC requires independent testing by PVUSA to assign a Practical Test Condition (PTC) rating which in turn determines the level of rebate for installers and customers. These test conditions were developed to independently evaluate module performance under practical field conditions. The CEC recently adjusted its module performance ratings using IEC 61215 evaluation standards, a testing procedure better adjusted to reflect actual module output. With a higher CEC module power rating, customers will receive more funding from state programs such as the California Solar Initiative rebate program.

In October 2007, Day4 Energy passed stringent TUV testing according to IEC 61215 Edition 2 / IEC 61730 (certificate ID number 0000022023) standards. The issuance of the TUV qualification confirmed that Day4 Energy's solar modules meet rigorous global product safety and quality codes. Upon notification of this certification, the CEC re-evaluated the Day4 module PTC performance resulting in an overall increase of Day4 Energy listed module efficiency ratings by 0.991 percent.

The highly efficient Day4 48 MC solar module is based on the company's proprietary Day4 Electrode technology, an innovative approach to module construction that directly replaces the decades-old soldering connection methods to improve module efficiency, decrease costs and enable continued innovation in solar technology development.

"In 2007 we made the successful transition from R&D to
commercialization," stated George Rubin, Day4's President and COO. "At the
beginning of 2007 we laid out three core objectives. I am pleased to report
that we successfully achieved each of them. First, we generated significant
interest in our unique PV technology and established a foundation of a robust
sales channel partner network in both the North American and European markets,
creating a substantial order book. Second we increased production levels to
fully utilize our existing capacity by year end, and advanced our proprietary
manufacturing processes to the point where we can proceed with a rapid scale
up though near term internal production build-up but most importantly via
third party outsourced manufacturing strategy. Third, we successfully
completed three financings, raising over $128 million to fund our growth
targets. Phase I expansion of our new production facility has commenced and is
on track. We have further commenced discussions with a number of manufacturing
partners as per outsourced production of PV modules based on our proprietary
technology."
<<
2007 Financial Review
>>
For the year ended December 31, 2007, total recognized revenue increased
ten times, to $20.9 million, as compared to $1.9 million, in 2006. The
substantial growth in PV module sales reflected both increased demand and a
full year of operations, as opposed to the five month commercial production
period during the start-up phase in 2006, Day4's first commercial production
period. Geographically sales revenues were split by 65% to Europe and 35% to
North America.
By year end the Company had a large backlog of sales contracts for 2008
deliveries and production capacity of 12 MW fully utilized. The successful
completion of UL and IEC product certifications during 2007 also assisted the
Company's ability to sell into new markets. Day4's total module production
for 2007 was 5.4 MW compared to 0.5 MW in the last five months of 2006.
Gross margin improved consistently throughout 2007. Year over year gross
margin improved by nearly three times from a loss of 62% in 2006 to a loss of
22% for 2007. Volume production increases, improved production processes,
machine efficiencies, and production staff training and experience are all
contributing to gross margin improvements. The strengthening of the Canadian
dollar against both the Euro and the US dollar during the year had a negative
impact on gross margin. A foreign exchange hedging program has been
implemented to mitigate such impacts.
Gross margin improvements continued in the fourth quarter. After
adjusting for a one time fourth quarter write down for accumulated volume of
18 months of off-specification inventory of $0.9M, fourth quarter gross margin
was a loss of 13%. Management anticipates a transition towards positive gross
margin in early 2008.
"As we grow our annual volume purchases with our suppliers, we will be
able to facilitate larger commitments that enable the use of dedicated
production lines to produce exclusive Day4 PV cell designs," said Mr. Rubin.
"With dedicated PV cell lines we will be able to economically facilitate the
production of our higher efficiency, generation II PV cell designs which, when
incorporated into our module technology, could offer up to 20% greater average
efficiency and a cost reduction of similar magnitude on a per rated watt
basis. Accumulating evidence of superior field performance of our products
further helps the market to recognize the value of our proprietary technology
that can go far beyond the measured watts of production rated power."
Total operating expenses increased significantly, reflecting the
increased investment in manufacturing expansion and resources to support the
Company's growth, including marketing, sales, and administration. Sales and
marketing expenses rose to $1.9 million in 2007, compared to $0.2 million for
the prior year. 2007 was the first year of significant sales and marketing
activity as we expanded our staff and resources to execute our business plans
and strategy. G&A expenses were $3.2 million for 2007, versus $1.0 million
for the prior year.
Capital expenditures for fiscal 2007 were $5.5 million compared to $1.9
million for the prior year. Substantially all of the capital expenditures for
the year were incurred for production machinery and equipment.
Day4 Energy reported an EBITDA loss of $10.2 million, or $0.51 per share.
Adjusted for a total of $2.9 million of non-cash expenses of fair value
accounting for the September 2007 convertible debenture and settlement
thereof, and expenses not expected to recur, including financing costs and a
September 30th net realizable value write down of inventory, the Company's
adjusted net loss was $11.0 million, or $0.55 per share.
The net loss for fiscal 2007 was $13.9 million, or $0.70 per share,
compared to $3.9 million, or $0.27 per share, for 2006.
The expected losses for the year reflect firstly, the increased gross
losses from product sales, and secondly from increased overheads reflecting
growth in staff and operational resources, financing costs, inventory write-
downs and non-cash accretion expenses incurred in the year. Losses are
expected to continue until the end of 2008 at which time the Company aims to
have completed its 2008 production expansion plans and move towards positive
EBITDA.
At December 31, 2007 cash and short term investments were $93.3 million,
compared to $0.2 million at December 31, 2006. Working capital at December 31,
2007 was $105 million. This increase during the year reflects three financings
completed during the year providing proceeds of $128.1 million, after
financing issuance costs totaling $9.3 million. These cash inflows were
offset by operating and investing activities of $67.9 million.
A third generation of proprietary manufacturing machines was placed into
production in the third quarter of 2007, improving process cycle time by 30%.
Manufacturing efficiency improvements continue in 2008 where Day4 is
undertaking a two phase production capacity expansion. The first phase will
increase annual capacity from 12 MW to 40 MW by the end of the second quarter.
The second phase will increase annual production capacity to 90 MW by the end
of the fourth quarter 2008.
In 2007 Day4 expanded its supply contracts for PV cells by increasing
commitments to suppliers, and by expanding the number of suppliers to three by
year end. The Company is continuing to expand the number of suppliers, and
the volume of PV cells purchased from suppliers to meet projected sales
requirements. For 2008 through 2009 Day4 already has sufficient supply
contracted to substantially meet its sales contract commitments.
At November 30, 2007 Day4 closed the acquisition of its distributor in
Europe, Day4 Systems GmbH. The acquisition streamlines Day4's sales and
distribution channel in Europe through a strong local presence and direct
access to customers. This acquisition is also expected to improve gross
margins.

3/31/2008 10:38:53 AM Day4 Energy Inc. (DFE.TO), a manufacturer of solar electric modules, on Monday reported wider loss for fiscal 2007 compared to last year, despite higher revenues, on account of higher costs and expenses. The company said it expects losses to continue until the end of 2008 at which time the company aims to have completed its 2008 production expansion plans and move towards positive EBITDA.

The Vancouver, British Columbia-based Day4 Energy posted loss of C$13.9 million, or C$0.70 per share for the year, compared to loss of C$3.9 million, or C$0.27 per share last year. The company said its loss widened due to increased gross losses from product sales, increased overheads reflecting growth in staff and operational resources, financing costs, inventory write- downs and non-cash accretion expenses incurred in the year.

Gross loss for the year was C$4.38 million compared to C$1.18 million last year. Expenses increased to C$6.64 million from C$2.66 million in the previous year.

During the year, revenue increased ten times to C$20.9 million from C$1.9 million in 2006. By year end the company had a large backlog of sales contracts for 2008 deliveries and production capacity of 12 MW fully utilized. The successful completion of UL and IEC product certifications during 2007 also assisted the company's ability to sell into new markets. Day4's total module production for 2007 was 5.4 MW compared to 0.5 MW in the last five months of 2006.

DFE.TO is trading down C$0.05 or 1.06% at C$4.65 on a volume of 6,050 shares.

hallo leute,

diese woche gab es gleich 2 news, es scheint, dass day4 energy aus der versenkung kommt.

Day4Energy: Kapazität von 90 Megawatt bis Jahresende

17.04.2008: Der kanadische Modulhersteller Day4Energy plant, seine Kapazität von derzeit 12 Megawatt bis zur Jahresmitte auf 40 und bis Jahresende weiter auf 90 Megawatt auszubauen.

Die Produktion soll 2008 bei 40 Megawatt liegen, erklärte der geschäftsführende Vorstand George Rubin. Damit geht das junge Unternehmen in sein erstes nennenswertes Geschäftsjahr. Day4Energy hatte vor zwei Jahren mit der Entwicklung einer Elektrode für Solarzellen Furore gemacht, die es erlaubt, die Stromsammelschienen auf die Rückseite der Solarzellen zu verlegen und so den Modulwirkungsgrad um 0,7 bis 0,8 Prozentpunkte zu erhöhen.
Forschung und Entwicklung gehört Rubin zufolge auch weiterhin zum stärksten Differenzierungsmerkmal des Unternehmens: »Wir arbeiten ständig an der Technologie der nächsten Modulgeneration.« Die Mittel dafür hat sich das Unternehmen vorerst gesichert. Im vergangenen Dezember brachte der Börsengang an der Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) rund 100 Millionen kanadische Dollar ein (67 Millionen Euro). Diese werden laut Rubin teils in die Forschung gesteckt und teils in das Marketing, wobei er neben Nordamerika die Märkte Italien und vor allem Deutschland als die derzeit wichtigsten bezeichnet. Hierzulande ist Day4Energy bereits in ein vielversprechendes Projekt involviert. Mitte Januar haben die Kanadier die ersten zwei Betriebsmonate eines Ein-Megawatt-Solarprojektes mit dem deutschen Energieversorger EnBW im Landkreis Sigmaringen (Baden-Württemberg) erfolgreich abgeschlossen, weshalb der Vertrag mit EnBW auch verlängert wurde. Zudem sind zwei weitere Großprojekte für 2009 und 2010 geplant, teilte das Unternehmen mit.

Neben der Technologie des Unternehmens dürften auch die Namen des Managements auf Investoren überzeugend wirken. Im Vorstand sitzen durchweg Spezialisten mit zum Teil jahrzehntelanger Erfahrung in ihren jeweiligen Bereichen. Vorstandsvorsitzender von Day4Energy ist John MacDonald. Der Kanadier hat 1969 bereits das Unternehmen MacDonald Dettwiler & Associates Ltd. (MDA) mitgegründet, das er danach 30 Jahre lang führte und zu einem maßgeblichen Anbieter von Informationslösungen für Großunternehmen und Regierungsorganisationen aufbaute. Seit dem Jahr 2000 notiert MDA ebenfalls an der TSX. Das Unternehmen erzielte 2006 einen Jahresumsatz von über einer Milliarde kanadischer Dollar (rund 670 Millionen Euro) und beschäftigte weltweit mehr als 3.000 Mitarbeiter.

Day4 Energy First Quarter Gross Margins Turn Positive as Revenues Reach $13.5M

Margins Improving Ahead of Planned Capacity Expansion

BURNABY, BC, May 8 /CNW/ - Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a manufacturer of
superior performance solar electric modules, today reported the successful
transition to positive gross margins on record revenues for its 2008 first
quarter financial results. Substantial improvements were achieved in both
operating and net profit ratios.
For the first quarter ended March 31, 2008, total recognized revenue was
$13.5 million, as compared to $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2007, at
which time production was not at current capacity. On a consecutive quarterly
basis, revenues increased 96% from revenues of $6.9 million in the fourth
quarter of 2007. This was also a 26% increase over the previous high of
$10.7 million reported in Q3 2007. The substantial growth in PV module sales
reflects both increased demand for Day4 technology, improved geographic sales
mix, and full utilization of its current production capacity for the quarter.
Day4's 12 MW (annual capacity) production facility has been running at full
capacity since the third quarter of 2007.
Sales revenues in the first quarter were split geographically with 95% to
Europe and 5% to North America. This compares to 65% to Europe and 35% to
North America for the first quarter of fiscal 2007. During the past year the
Company has established a growing sales backlog. As of May 8, 2008, total
secured contracts for delivery in 2008 through 2010 had reached 153 MW; 32 MW
deliverable in 2008, 55 MW deliverable in 2009, 66 MW deliverable in 2010.
An important milestone was achieved in the first quarter as the Company
transitioned to positive gross margins of 2%. This represents a significant
improvement from negative gross margins of 26% reported in the fourth quarter
of 2007 and negative 21% reported for the full fiscal year of 2007. Production
volume increases, improved production processes, stronger market position and
continuous improvement in the product cost structure all contributed to gross
margin improvements. With the economies of scale and contribution growth from
increased product sales enabled by the 2008 capacity expansion now under the
way, management expects continued progress towards its goal of positive
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA").
"I am pleased to report that our production operations for the first
quarter of 2008 performed very well," stated George Rubin, president & COO of
Day4 Energy. "We are building value through increased market acceptance and
confidence while maintaining relentless focus on operating efficiencies. This
year is about growth and achievement of the optimal operating structure in
accordance with our business plan. In the first quarter we have taken some
very important steps forward on both of these items. We have continued
building our market presence with the addition of over 50 MW of contracted
sales in this quarter alone. Our production expansion is well underway. Most
importantly we have now turned the corner on the operating performance. The
Company has a solid plan that it continues to execute and I am proud of every
member of the Day4 team for making it possible."
With production capacity of 12 MW fully utilized, the Company is rapidly
expanding its operations in order to satisfy the large backlog of sales
contracts for deliveries in 2008 and beyond. To meet demand for future
contracted deliveries, Day4 began occupancy of its Phase I 28 MW expansion
facility and build-out is on schedule for completion by the end of the second
quarter. In addition, the Company secured and signed a lease for a 90,000
square foot Phase II 50 MW expansion facility.
Total operating expenses increased in the first quarter reflecting the
investment in expanded production, as well as operational resources including
marketing, sales, and administration. Sales and marketing expenses rose to
$0.7 million and general and administration expenses were $1.2 million in the
first quarter of 2008, compared to $0.2 million and $0.4 million respectively
for the same period in 2007. Investment in administrative and sales
infrastructure has generated healthy growth and return on investment. Together
sales, general and administration expenses represented 13.5% of revenues in
the first quarter, as compared to 158% of revenues in the first quarter of
2007.
Capital expenditures for the first quarter in 2008 rose to $8.6 million
compared to $0.08 million for same quarter in 2007. Substantially all of the
capital expenditures for the year were incurred for production machinery and
equipment.
Day4 Energy reported an (non GAAP) EBITDA loss of $2.0 million, or
($0.05) per share, for the first quarter, compared to a loss of $0.7 million,
or ($0.04) per share, in the first quarter of 2007. The net loss for the first
quarter of 2008 was $0.7 million, or ($0.02) per share, compared to a net loss
of $0.7 million, or ($0.04) per share for the first quarter of 2007. At the
same time both EBITDA and Net Loss improved significantly as a percent of
sales revenues.
At March 31, 2008 cash and short term investments were $61.7 million
compared to $93.3 million at December 31, 2007. Restricted cash at
March 31, 2008 was $12.5 million compared to $1.3 million at December 31,
2007. Working capital at March 31, 2008 was $85 million. Cash was used during
the quarter as working capital to fund production, operations, and investment
in building Day4's expanding production facilities.
"Our transition to positive gross margin is a critical element in our
path to profitability," added Mr. Rubin. "With production expansion and cost
optimization efforts well underway, we continue targeting break-even EBITDA in
the fourth quarter of 2008."

Das Solarunternehmen Day4Energy mit Sitz im Großraum Vancouver sei gut im Geschäft und habe gleich zwei weitere Einetagen-Laminatoren und einen "Ypsator"bestellt, den laut Bürkle weltweit ersten Mehretagen-Laminator, der aus Sicherheitsglas, Einkapsel-Folien und kristallinen Solarzellen ein "Solar-Sandwich" herstellt. Geliefert und in Betrieb genommen werden sollen die drei Anlagen, die eine Gesamtjahresleistung von 100 Megawatt (MW) haben, bis zum Jahresende. Mit dem Ypsator stoße Bürkle in neue Dimensionen vor, betont das Unternehmen.

Umsatzziel mit PV-Laminatoren: 50 Millionen Euro

"Auf maximal zehn Etagen sind Jahresleistungen von bis zu 120 Megawatt möglich", sagt Firmenchef Hans-Joachim Bender. Und um diese Kapazitäten werde es in Zukunft gehen. In der Photovoltaik werde es ab 2011 erste Fabriken mit Kapazitäten jenseits der Gigawatt-Grenze geben, prognostizieren Brancheninsider. Mit ihren Maschinen wollen die Schwarzwälder, die bisher hauptsächlich die Holz- und Elektronik-Industrie beliefern, in das Geschäft mit der Sonnenenergie einsteigen. Ingenieur Bender will bis in zwei Jahren 50 Millionen Euro Umsatz erzielen - allein mit dem Ypsator und dessen kleinem Bruder, dem Einetagenlaminator.

Benjamin Düperthal, Director of Operation bei Day4 Energy Inc., ist von Bürkle überzeugt: "Die pünktliche Ausführung der Bestellung und die Motivation aller Beteiligten machen mich sehr zuversichtlich, dass uns diese Kooperation einen großen Schritt vorwärts bringt, unsere Ausbaupläne zu einem erfolgreichen Abschluss zu bringen." Day4 Energie beliefert hauptsächlich Elektroinstallateure und Systemlieferanten mit Photovoltaik-Modulen, die auf Hausdächern, in Solarparks oder an Schallschutzwänden von Autobahnen zu finden sind. Mit der Laminier-Anlage wollen die Energieexperten die eigenen Kapazitäten erweitern. Damit die Module 25 Jahre wasserdicht und somit funktionsfähig sind, müssen die Laminatoren äußerst exakt arbeiten. Eine gleichmäßige Temperaturverteilung auf der gesamten Fläche (~150 Grad Celsius) sowie reproduzierbare und durchgängig dokumentierte Prozesse zeichnen das Bürkle-Modell aus, betont der Hersteller.

* What's this

By Brenda Bouw, The Canadian Press

VANCOUVER - The head of solar firm Day4 Energy Inc. (TSXFE), which operates in one of the fastest growing areas of the alternative power sector, says the company's rapid expansion plans are on track and it's working to better market its proprietary technology to help boost sales and its fallen stock price.

John MacDonald, co-founder, chairman and chief executive of Day4, which makes solar electric modules, said recently expanded production space will help it meet its goal of increasing manufacturing capacity from 12 megawatts to 40 MW by July.

The company's goal is to increase that capacity further to 90 MW by the end of year.

"We are selling everything we can make and we are on track for everything we said," before going public in December last year, said MacDonald.

The company's flagship product is the Day4 48MC PV module used in grid-connected residential and commercial solar panel systems.

Day4 claims its product is more efficient and looks better than its competitors' solar products.

Its Day4 Electrode technology was developed by Leonid Rubin, a retired biophysics professor at Russia's Moscow State University and Day4's co-founder and current chief technology officer.

MacDonald and Rubin met through their sons, who worked together in Vancouver's investment banking sector. Leonid's son George Rubin is Day4's president and CEO.

Leonid Rubin moved to B.C. with his technology team, which are now part of the company's nearly 200 employees based in Burnaby, a suburb of Vancouver.

After reporting a loss of $13 million in its 2007 financial year and $732,122 in the first quarter of 2008, Day4 expects to turn a profit in 2009.

It has also expanded advanced sales by 40 per cent for 2009 and 88 per cent for 2010.

While the recent news out of Day4 appears encouraging, its stock has not responded.

The shares have dropped about 45 per cent since it went public at $7.25 per share on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Dec. 6.

While many solar industry stocks have dipped in recent months, such as struggling Carmanah Technologies Corp. (TSX:CMH) and Xantrex Technology Inc. (TSX:XTX), none have been as steep as Day4's stock.

"There is nothing wrong," MacDonald said of the fallen share price.

"I think it's a question of nobody really appreciates what we are doing, and we are trying to remedy that."

The company is in the midst of a worldwide road show to promote its business to investment firms.

MacDonald said Day4 is gaining the most business in Europe, where alternative energy is more widely accepted and government incentives for energy-saving projects are considered more attractive.

In the first quarter, 95 per cent of Day4's $13.5 million in revenues came from Europe and five per cent from North America.

That compares to 65 per cent from Europe for the first quarter last year, and 35 per cent from North America, when its revenue was about $347,000.

Ravi Sood, president of Lawrence Asset Management Inc., Day4's largest shareholder with a nearly 13 per cent stake, sees the company's revenue hitting nearly $130 million this year and more than $200 million in 2009, which is above its current market value of about $156 million.

"It's a dramatically undervalued security and a very smart way to play to boom in the solar industry," Sood said.

He said his firm has been increasing its stake because it likes the proprietary technology.

It also takes "comfort" in having MacDonald, the former chairman and founder of aerospace and information technology firm MacDonald Dettwiler & Associates Ltd. (TSX:MDA), in the top job.

Blackmont Capital analyst Trevor Johnson believes the company went public during a challenging period in the financial markets and needs to build some momentum.

"Year-to-date, Day4 is the worst-performing Canadian photovoltaic equity, yet we view this lack of market support as a buying opportunity," said Johnson, who has a "speculative buy" rating on the stock and 12-month target of $8.

CIBC World Markets analyst Michael Willemse said Day4 operates in one of the most competitive segments of the solar supply market.

"Although the near-term profitability outlook for Day4 will be challenging, once the company reaches a strategic relationship with a low-cost manufacturer, sales and earnings growth should be significant," Willemse wrote in a recent note to clients.

"We recommend investors build positions conservatively and avoid chasing share prices following positive news announcements. The best time to buy solar-related equities is when module prices have declined and investors begin to panic about the longer-term prospects of the industry."

Day4 Energy's Solar Technology Breakthrough Moves Towards 25% Reduction in Solar Electricity Costs

06:00 EDT Wednesday, July 30, 2008

Next-Generation Day4 Technology Leads to 19% Efficient PV Cells at Lower

Cost


BURNABY, BC, July 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a leading manufacturer of high performance, cost-effective solar electric modules, announced today that it has achieved a major breakthrough in its R&D program focused on the design and development of high performance solar cells. After months of intensive research and experimental trials, the company has developed a design and manufacturing process for its Generation II solar cells with efficiency up to 19 percent on mono-crystalline and 18 percent on multi-crystalline silicon materials. The new design constitutes a significant improvement not only in maximum efficiency but also in low cost manufacturing and lower commercialization risk.

The application of the Generation II photovoltaic (PV) cell technology for multi-crystalline products is particularly important because of the material's lower price point and the company's secured cell supply. The Generation II technology was designed to be fully compatible with Day4 Energy's existing manufacturing equipment, enabling rapid deployment and scale-up. The technology further leverages existing solar cell manufacturing infrastructure as well as certain processing techniques widely deployed in other industries. The company expects that a combination of the technology and manufacturing process will reduce production costs by up to 25 percent of what is currently possible with conventional technology.

"Our first generation 14.7 percent efficiency Day4 MC module, which has been in commercial production since 2006, already places us among the industry's highest performing multi-crystalline products," said Professor Leonid Rubin, chief technology officer of Day4 Energy. "With the second generation of our proprietary solar cell designs we are taking a major step towards making solar energy cost competitive with conventional sources of electrical power generation."

"I am truly proud of our research team. A combination of high performance technology with low cost and manufacturing scalability represents a very significant achievement in reducing the kilowatt-hour costs of solar electricity" adds Dr. John MacDonald, chairman and CEO of Day4 Energy. "Performance at this level using less costly multi-crystalline material cannot be achieved without employing the Day4 Electrode technology."

Day4 Energy expects to fast track commercial scale-up of its high performance PV cell technology over the next 18 months and is currently in discussions with a number of partners in respect to this process. The company has also recently filed a patent application in connection with this invention.

Day4 Energy's Proprietary Module Technology Paves the Way for Metallurgical Silicon Solar Cells
Thursday August 7, 6:00 am ET

Day4 Electrode with Integrated Shading Protection Maximizes Long-Term Performance of UMG PV Cells
BURNABY, BC, Aug. 7 /CNW/ - Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE - News), a leading manufacturer of high performance, cost-effective solar electric modules, announced today that it has successfully developed and tested a proprietary PV module technology specifically designed for application with solar cells based on Upgraded Metallurgical Grade (UMG) silicon material. Once commercialized, UMG silicon technologies are widely believed to become a viable source of low cost alternative silicon material for solar industry. However, UMG silicon processing presents a number of technical challenges across the industry's value chain. Day4's proprietary technology is designed to address specific requirements of UMG silicon based solar cells and is expected to offer significant cost reduction potential for solar power generation.

ADVERTISEMENT
The company has used its proprietary Day4 Electrode and distributed by-pass diode technologies to integrate shading protection directly into the solar cells as opposed to the traditional approach that calls for by-pass diodes placed in the centralized junction box area on the back of the solar module. Due to the inherent flexibility of Day4 Electrode integrated by-pass diode technology, shading protection can now be distributed through-out the solar module reducing product sensitivity to changing solar illumination conditions and partial solar module shading in particular. While the technology is certainly applicable to all types of PV cells it is particularly relevant for UMG silicon based solar cells as it addresses one of the key issues of commercial UMG silicon based solar modules - increased sensitivity and potential danger to PV module integrity at the time of partial module shading when compared to conventional crystalline silicon solar module technology.

"It is known that UMG based solar cells typically have substancially lower shunt resistance and a corresponding lower value of breakdown voltage compared to conventional solar grade multicrystalline solar cells. This fact imposes a limitation on the maximum number of solar cells that can be connected in series in the solar module in order to prevent irreversible breakdown in case of partial module shading during operation." says Professor Leonid Rubin, chief technology officer of Day4 Energy. "Our low cost integrated Day4 Electrode by-pass diode technology eliminates this problem and removes some of the existing prejudice against wider employment of this potentially prospective material."

UMG silicon technology for manufacturing silicon ingots and wafers is widely believed to offer significant potential for cost reduction for the PV industry as a whole. With recent progress made by a number of companies at the silicon purification level, UMG silicon material is starting to make its way into the PV cell production lines. At the same time, PV module technology requires its share of modifications in order to successfully utilize these new UMG silicon based PV cells without jeopardizing the long-term integrity of the final product. Day4's new technology addresses these issues and removes one of the key roadblocks on the way to implementation of UMG silicon solar cells in large-scale commercial solar module manufacturing. The technology is ultimately enabled by a combination of the company's proprietary Day4 Electrode technology for contacting and interconnecting solar cells with a proprietary low cost by-pass diode design. The company has applied for patent protection in connection with this invention.

Day4 Energy Builds Foundation for Growth During Second Quarter

Technology scale-up completed. Capacity expansion positions Day4 for
rapid growth

BURNABY, BC, Aug. 8 /CNW/ - Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a manufacturer
of superior performance solar electric modules, today reported operating
results for the second quarter and first half of 2008.
During the second quarter Day4 Energy completed an industrial scale-up
and automation of its proprietary solar module assembly process, resulting in
a quadrupling of its annual production capacity from 12 megawatts (MW), to
47 MW. An additional 50 MW of production capacity is anticipated to be
completed by the end of 2008 to further service the Company's sales backlog of
approximately $640 million (based on current market prices) and deliverable
through 2010. Further volume capacity growth is planned through a highly
scalable third party outsourced manufacturing strategy. Negotiations with
partners are underway and outsourced production is expected to account for the
majority of the Company's product output beginning in 2009. This substantially
reduces the Company's capital requirements for production volume growth and
leverages the efficient cost structures of the large integrated manufacturing
firms. The Company has also stepped up its research and development activities
in PV cell and module designs that have resulted in breakthroughs offering
potential cost reductions of up to 25%.
For the second quarter ended June 30, 2008, total revenue reached
$15.0 million, as compared to $13.5 million for first quarter 2008 and
$3.1 million for the second quarter of 2007. Second quarter production
capacity remained unchanged from the first quarter of 2008 at 12 MW. However
second quarter product deliveries increased 8% over the first quarter of 2008
reflecting increased utilization and process improvements in the Company's
existing production capacity.
Day4 Energy achieved an incremental improvement in quarterly gross profit
despite additional personnel and start-up costs associated with the
installation and turn-up of the Phase I capacity expansion completed in early
July 2008. The Phase I expansion essentially quadruples production compared to
the first half of 2008. After achieving an important milestone of
transitioning to positive gross margins earlier in the year, the Company
delivered a second consecutive gross margin positive quarter with 2.5% gross
profit or $0.4 million compared to 2.0% or $0.3 million in the first quarter
of 2008. This compares with negative gross margins for the year ended 2007 of
21%. Gross margin improvements are being gained from production volume
increases, improved production processes and product cost structure, and
favorable selling prices to customers. The Company expects that a ramp up to
4-fold increase in production volumes during the second half of the year will
result in further improvements in gross profit and operating performance.
During the second quarter the Company's general & administrative expenses
increased to $1.4 million compared to $1.2 million in the first quarter of
2008. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $1.3 million compared to
$0.7 million in the first quarter of 2008 reflecting additional sales channel
initiatives in existing markets and increased efforts directed at
strengthening product positioning and development of new markets in Japan,
Korea, Mexico and Australia. The Company has been successful in diversifying
political risk related to government subsidies and currently does not have
sales backlog exposure to volatile market conditions in Spain and United
States. Day4 Energy has most of its sales backlog for the balance of 2008 and
2009 concentrated in stable German and Italian markets with newly established
sales opportunities in Asia and Central America providing for additional
upside and strong growth potential.
Research and development expenses for the second quarter were
$0.6 million compared to $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2008. Net of
recognized investment tax credits, second quarter research and development
costs were $0.3 million. With the completion of the Day4 Electrode technology
automation and production volume scale-up the Company has diverted a large
portion of its research and development efforts towards development of next
generation solar cell designs which are enabled exclusively by the Day4
Electrode technology.
The patented Day4 Electrode is an innovative approach to module
construction that directly replaces less efficient soldering methods used
throughout the industry. By improving connections to and between photovoltaic
(PV) cells, the Day4 Electrode produces solar electric products with higher
efficiency and performance, longer lifetime, improved aesthetics, and at lower
costs. Additionally, the Day4 Electrode provides for entirely new and
innovative PV cell designs to be utilized providing greater power and cost
efficiencies previously unavailable to the industry.
Day4's increased R&D investment in solar cell design has resulted in the
Company's recent announcement that it has developed a new patent-pending
design and manufacturing process for solar cells, capable of delivering
efficiencies of up to 19 percent on mono-crystalline and 18 percent on
multi-crystalline silicon materials. The application for multi-crystalline
products is particularly important because of the material's lower price point
and the Company's secured supply. The new design is fully compatible with Day4
Energy's existing manufacturing equipment, enabling fast, economical
deployment and scale-up. The technology also leverages existing solar cell
manufacturing infrastructure and certain processing techniques widely deployed
in other industries. The Company expects that a combination of the technology
and manufacturing process will reduce production costs by up to 25 percent of
what is currently possible with conventional technology.
In addition to the breakthrough with high efficiency silicon-based solar
cell technologies Day4 has recently achieved significant progress applying its
core proprietary technology to alternative materials such as Upgraded
Metallurgical Grade (UMG) Silicon.
"Our proprietary technology behind the Day4 Electrode is the key to our
recent breakthrough innovations. Now that the scale-up of the Day4 Electrode
manufacturing process is complete, we have the industrial grade platform
required to commercialize a new generation of solar cell technologies
developed by our R&D group" stated George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. "We
believe that our unique combination of an industrial grade proprietary
manufacturing platform with our solar cell and module design breakthroughs,
has the potential to introduce new economics to the industry through the
increased efficiencies of next generation of cell technologies and, in the
case of UMG silicon, a substantial reduction in material costs. Our strategy
is to use this unique advantage to create market value by establishing
ourselves as a leading supplier of highest return on investment solutions for
solar power generation needs. Further, the potential exists for future
licensing of certain aspects of our proprietary technology to the broader
industry"
For the second quarter, Day4 Energy recorded an operating loss of
$2.8 million, and a net loss of $2.5 million, or ($0.07) per share. This
compares to an operating loss of $2.4 million, and net loss of $0.7 million,
or ($0.02) per share, in the first quarter of 2008 respectively.
With the economies of scale and contribution growth from increased
product sales enabled by the four-fold increase from the Phase I expansion
completed during the second quarter, management expects continued progress
towards its goal of positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization ("EBITDA") in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Capital expenditures for the second quarter and for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2008 rose to $9.1 million and $17.7 million compared to
$0.1 million and $0.2 million for same periods in 2007 respectively.
Substantially all capital expenditures were incurred for production machinery
and equipment in the Phase I (35 MW) and II (50 MW) expansion initiatives. The
Company expects production capital investments to decline substantially in
2009 as it executes its outsourced production strategy.
At June 30, 2008 cash (including restricted cash) and short term
investments were $57.7 million compared to $74.2 million at March 31, 2008.
Working capital at June 30, 2008 was $86.3 million compared to $97.1 million
on March 31, 2008. Cash was used during the quarter as working capital to fund
production, operations, and investment in building Day4 Energy's expanding
production facilities.
The successful automation of the last proprietary step of the Day4
Electrode manufacturing process in the second quarter was an important step in
increasing production efficiency gains in its newly completed 35 MW production
facility. More importantly, these production refinements provide Day4 Energy
with an industrial grade process technology that can be transferred to its
pending 50 MW expansion, and again to large third party manufacturers.
Large scale expansion through third party production in 2009 is expected
to have positive impact on profit margins and provide the required product
volumes to address global demand for Day4 Energy's advanced solar products.
The strategy also reduces the capital intensiveness of the business and frees
a greater portion of Company resources to value-added activities in research
and development, and sales and marketing areas.

oh Mann, was ist hier nur los? M.E. eine Firma mit super Aussichten, aber der Kurs spricht leider was anderes.

Sehr dünnes Handelsvolumen und riesige Spreads und vor allem große Abschläge im Tagesverlauf. Dabei sah es noch Anfang September super aus, als es mit hohem Volumen richtig schön aufwärts ging.

Day4 Energy Inc (DFE-TSX) S. BUY
Day4 Energy: Investment Thesis Remains Intact Despite Reduction in Forecasts; Reiterate Spec BUY

Blackmont hosted John MacDonald, CEO of Day4 Energy, for meetings with institutional investors. Although shares of Day4 have shown little positive momentum since the early 2008 IPO, our meetings revealed the following three encouraging takeaways that support our Spec Buy recommendation:
(1) Company milestones remain on schedule. Day4 is on track to achieve production of 97MW positive EBITDA/EPS by early 2009;
(2) No additional capital requirements are needed to achieve stated production guidance; however, in an effort to boost margins and avoid future capital constrictions, Day4 has deviated from its initial plans to have 90MW of in-house production and subsequent demand outsourced; and,
(3) Global economic turmoil has yet to materially impact operations. While backlog remains strong, on account of DFE's revise production strategy, we have reduced our forward estimates. However, Day4 still offers investors compelling relative valuation while possessing one of the more impressive and scalable technologies.
With its visible backlog (we calculate 60% of total forecast production through 2010 pre-sold) strong growth prospects, Day4 is an attractive and relatively visible way to invest in the Canadian photovoltaic sector.
We reiterate our Spec BUY rating and $8.00 per share target price, derived using a discounted cash flow valuation assuming an 18% cost of equity and 0% long-term growth rate.

Day4 Energy Continues Expansion and Growth during Third Quarter


Burnaby, British Columbia — November 12, 2008 — Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a solar electric technology
developer and manufacturer of superior performance solar modules, today reported operating results for the third
quarter and first nine months of 2008.

Recent Company Highlights:

• Production ramp capitalized on sales and marketing efforts and led to increased revenues
• Operating improvements and effective foreign exchange management deliver improved bottom line
• PV project business opens new market opportunities
• Competitive position enhanced with advancements in next generation technology
“Together with significant increases in revenues, the company achieved progress in its operating efficiencies during
the third quarter”, said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. “When adjusted for the foreign exchange
fluctuations our third quarter gross margins were 3.3% compared to 2.5% during the previous quarter.”

He added, “Importantly, we are being proactive in addressing the factors that affected our reported gross margins
this quarter. We currently hedge our foreign exchange exposure through forward contracts and this quarter the
foreign exchange fluctuations were more than compensated for by the gains on our foreign exchange forward
contracts on a market to market basis. We continue to work to achieve our cost reduction objectives through a
number of avenues that includes outsourcing options.”

2008 3Q FINANCIAL RESULTS

Worldwide Product Revenues
Third quarter revenues increased 111% from the prior quarter revenue. The increase reflects the successful ramp-
up of new production capabilities designed to capitalize on the company’s sales and marketing efforts and rapid
adoption of the company’s products in target markets around the world. Revenue was $31.7 million for the third
quarter up from the $15 million for the second quarter of 2008 and 197% greater than revenues recorded in the third
quarter in 2007. Revenue rose to $60.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Gross Margins
Gross margin was impacted negatively by foreign exchange, and ramp-up costs, including the commissioning and
optimization of new production lines associated with our four-fold increase in annualized production capacity.
Significant fluctuations in the foreign exchange affected both revenues and cost sides of the company’s business,
and had an overall negative impact on the company’s profit margins. Simultaneous strengthening USD and
weakening Euro foreign exchange resulted in a negative 4.7% impact on the operation. In the short term the
economic impact of the foreign exchange fluctuations was substantially mitigated by the foreign exchange hedging
program implemented by the company. In the medium to long term the company will adjust aspects of its supply
chain and operations to maximize natural hedging opportunities thus minimizing the overall FX exposure of the
business.


When adjusted for foreign exchange fluctuations, gross margin for the third quarter 2008 improved to 3.3%
compared to 2.5% recorded during the previous quarter. This improvement is mainly attributable to reduced
production costs due to economies of scale and overall manufacturing experience.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008 foreign exchange adjusted gross margin was 2.8% compared to a
gross margin loss of 18% for the same period in 2007.

Expenses
For the third quarter of 2008, general and administrative expenses were $2.0 million an increase of 41% over the
prior quarter and in line with increases in staff and business activities relating to our volume growth in operations.
G&A expenses as a percentage of revenues were 7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 down from
9% for the same period in 2007.

Sales and marketing expenses were $0.9 million for the third quarter, a decrease of 33% over the prior quarter and
a reflection of second quarter one-time costs associated with expansion initiatives including customer relations and
sales channel development. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues have improved to 5% of
sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared with 6% of sales for the same period in 2007.

The 17% increase in R&D expenses in the third quarter compared to the second quarter of 2008 represents
increased project costs, consulting contracts and personnel costs as we continue the development of opportunities
provided by the Day4 Electrode including the development of new products. While absolute costs have increased,
R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues have improved to 3% of sales for the nine months ended September
30, 2008 compared with 8% of sales for the same period in 2007.

Earnings Per Share (EPS) / Loss Per Share
The net loss for the third quarter 2008 was $1,692,100 ($0.05 per share) compared with $2,466,815 ($0.07 per
share) the prior quarter and $4,829,202 ($0.26 per share) for the same period in 2007. Net loss as a percentage of
revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was 8% compared to 49% for the same period in 2007.

Cash and Short-Term Investments
At September 30, 2008, we had $43.6 million in cash and short term investments, including restricted cash of $11.2
million, down from total cash and short term investments at June 30, 2008 of $57.7 million.

Cash used by operations and purchase of Property Plant and Equipment was $8.4 million and $6.1 million
respectively, totaling $14.5 million for the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ending September 30, 2008
cash used by operations was $27.6 million and the purchase of Property Plant and Equipment was $23.8 million
totally $51.4 million, an increase of $32.6 million or 173% over the same period in 2007.

Day4 Energy Completes Outsource Agreement with Jabil

Substantial Module Assembly Cost Savings Expected.

Geographic Proximity to Sales Provides Natural Hedge and Significant
Reduction in Working Capital Costs.

BURNABY, BC, Dec. 23 /CNW/

- Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a solar electric technology developer and manufacturer of superior performance solar modules, today announced it has signed a long-term manufacturing supply agreement with Jabil Circuit Inc., a leading global electronic solutions company. Under the terms of the multi-year agreement Jabil will purchase from Day4 Energy certain equipment required for the manufacture and supply of the modules and produce Day4 Energy's brand of modules for residential and commercial applications.

"The outsource strategy is a key component of our business plan offering a number of advantages including a step-function improvement in our cost structure with substantial photovoltaic module assembly cost savings, significant working capital expense reduction, and a natural hedge to foreign exchange effects by geographically aligning our production with our key sales locations," said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. "Day4 will provide the solar cells based on our proprietary designs and Jabil's manufacturing expertise and supply chain power will allow us to enhance the efficiencies of photovoltaic module manufacturing. By partnering with Jabil we can focus on our core areas of expertise and value creation for Day4, namely R&D and sales and marketing."

"We believe that our proven technical and manufacturing expertise, coupled with Day4 Energy's superior product offering, is a strong combination. This partnership expands our clean technologies portfolio by developing a foothold in the solar industry, a market we believe has tremendous growth potential and can benefit from our economies of scale, optimized supply chain and standardized global operating systems," explained Brian Althaver, Jabil vice president of strategic development.

George Rubin added, "This relationship streamlines the company's cost structure and takes advantage of our flexible business model. With the fundamental near-term shifts occurring in the solar sector, our strategy is to reduce working capital costs, and ensure that we are in a good position to take advantage of the significant reductions we expect in materials costs over the next couple of quarters. We are seeing continued strength in demand for our product in Europe in the residential and commercial applications and remain confident in our contracted sales for 2009." Rubin continued, "We will focus on managing production to effectively and efficiently meet the best timing and geographical demand for 2009. Given the broader economic environment and seasonal weather patterns we are being proactive in managing our business to avoid inventory build-up. We expect to have the equipment installed at the Jabil facility in Q1 and to be operating at full capacity as we enter the second half of 2009. This timing coincides perfectly with the expected demand cycle as it capitalizes on the normal seasonality from December through the first quarter. The overall strategy not only aligns our cost structure with the near term it ultimately puts the company in a better position to expand and grow in the future by focusing on those parts of the business that drive the highest returns."

Day4 Energy Announces Reduction in Workforce

BURNABY, BC, Jan. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Day4 Energy Inc. (News) (TSX: DFE), a solar electric technology developer and manufacturer of superior performance solar modules, today announced the company has implemented a reduction in its overall headcount affecting approximately 95 people primarily at its Burnaby production facility.

"While it is always a difficult decision to let people go, it is equally important to ensure the company is best positioned to meet the realities of the new solar economy. We are seeing continued strength in demand for our product in Europe and remain confident in our contracted sales for 2009, however, given the broader economic environment and seasonal weather patterns we are being proactive in managing our business to avoid inventory build-up. With this action to streamline the company's cost structure we are taking advantage of our flexible business model as we pursue our strategy to reduce working capital costs and capitalize on the significant reductions we expect in materials costs over the next couple of quarters," said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. "We are confident that with these changes we will be able to adjust our production to effectively and efficiently meet the best timing and geographical demand for 2009. This strategy will not only align our cost structure with the potential for the near term but it will also ultimately put the company in a better position to expand and grow with the market in the future. This will allow us to focus on those parts of the business that drive the highest returns."

Day4 Energy will provide its employees affected by the workforce reduction with severance and human resource support to assist with outplacement. We expect there will be an associated restructuring charge of approximately $0.7 million recorded in 2009.

Day4 Energy Reports Q4 and FY2008 Results

BURNABY, BC, March 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Day4 Energy Inc. (News) (TSX: DFE), a solar electric technology developer and manufacturer of superior performance solar modules, today reported operating results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2008.

During the second half of 2008 there were a number of fundamental changes in the economics of the entire photovoltaic (PV) industry. The global economic recession and financial crisis coupled with severe weather conditions in the core PV market resulted in inventory build-ups, production overcapacity and rapid deterioration of average selling prices across the value chain. Weak sales, slowing demand and gross margin compression have been widespread throughout the solar sector and have been reflected in numerous negative earnings reports and announcements over the past several weeks.

"There is little doubt that 2008 presented a number of operating challenges that affected our company alongside the rest of the industry," said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. "Our objectives in managing through the current shakeout in the sector are to continue to evolve the business strategically and conserve cash so that our differentiated technology and low capital intensity business model reaches its potential to bring future value to our shareholders."

Industry experts agree that the reduction in prices accelerate the path to grid parity. While in the interim the price reductions pose challenges for companies they have driven up the returns for capital investments in PV projects to nearly all time high levels and will eventually be beneficial to the sector as a whole. The pricing phenomena coupled with the increased political will for renewable energy technologies and accompanying subsidy programs currently being implemented all around the world suggest a positive long-term outlook for the industry.

"The low capital cost models with technological differentiation and a strong downstream position are going to be critical to success during these difficult times. Our long-term manufacturing supply partnership with Jabil Circuit Inc., a leading global electronic solutions company, will help to reduce our working capital requirements and allow us to concentrate our capital and management attention on our two core business objectives: technological leadership and sales and marketing. We now have market presence in eight different geographic markets and our R&D group has made significant progress in the development of our breakthrough Generation II solar cell technology," he concluded.

2008 4Q and FY FINANCIAL RESULTS Worldwide Product Revenues

Fourth quarter revenues of $16.6 million represent a 48% decrease from the prior quarter revenues of $31.7 million and up 141% from $6.9 million for the same period in 2007. While seasonality is typical for this sector in the fourth quarter the early and persistent snowfall in our primary market (Germany) combined with the economic downturn slowed deliveries to a greater extent than expected in November and December. Global sales for the full year 2008 were $76.8 million, a nearly four-fold increase from the prior year sales of $21.0 million.

Gross Margins

The gross loss of 45% for the fourth quarter compared to a loss of 1.4% in the third quarter 2008 and a loss of 26.3% for the same period in 2007. We were unsuccessful in maintaining modest positive gross margins achieved during the first half of 2008 because of inventory write downs reflecting the decline of average selling prices (ASP's) experienced in the sector at year end, and increased raw materials costs due to foreign exchange fluctuations. A significant increase in the value of the US dollar against the Canadian had a significant impact on our cost of goods sold. With most of our raw materials, primarily PV cells, denominated in US dollars the 17% rise from the third quarter cut into our margins. In the fourth quarter the company wrote down $5.2 million of inventory to net realizable value. Gross loss excluding inventory write-down was 13% for the fourth quarter and 3% for fiscal 2008. Reported fiscal year over year gross loss has improved significantly to a loss of 9% in 2008 from a loss of 21% in 2007. Average unit costs improved throughout the year as we increased production volumes, diversified our supplier base and refined production processes.

Expenses

For the fourth quarter of 2008, general and administrative expenses were $10.4 million, an increase of 432% over the prior quarter and 438% for the same period in 2007. For the full year G&A expenses were $14.9 million, an increase of 361% over 2007. Significant non-operational factors affected the increase in G&A expenses in the fourth quarter in addition to the expected increase in operational costs related to continued development of the business. Non-operational costs related to deteriorating economic conditions and weather delays resulted in a $6.3 million provision for allowance for doubtful accounts. Other factors contributing to the increase in G&A period comparisons were due to operational cost increases for staff and business activities relating to our volume growth in operations, increased accounting, legal and consulting services due to various contract negotiations, patent applications and restructuring.

Sales and marketing expenses were $0.8 million for the fourth quarter, a decrease of 10% over the prior quarter, and 26% compared to the same period in 2007. The decrease represents management's efforts to conserve cash in the face of reduced demand during the quarter. Full year sales and marketing expenses were $3.6 million representing an increase of 89% over the $1.9 million in expenses for 2007. The year over year increase is a reflection of continued expansion of our activities, initiatives and staff resources compared to the prior period including customer relations and sales channel development with our key customers. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues have improved to 5% of sales for the full year ended December 31, 2008 compared with 9% of sales for the same period in 2007.

R&D expenses of $0.5 million or a 30% decrease in the fourth quarter compared to both the third quarter of 2008 and to the same period in 2007. For the full year R&D expenses were $2.3 million compared to $1.8 million for 2007. The 28% year over year increase represents our continued commitment to develop the photovoltaic efficiencies and opportunities provided by the Day4 Electrode and include increased project costs, consulting contracts and personnel costs. While absolute costs have increased, R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues have improved to 3% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared with 9% of sales for the same period in 2007.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

During the fourth quarter changing financial conditions and a significant decline in our market value at year end resulted in our reassessment of the fair values of our long-lived assets. We have recorded total impairment charges of $8.7 million including $0.5 million for the value of intangible assets on the purchase of Day4 Systems acquired in November 2007 and $8.2 million related to our property, plant and equipment.

Loss Per Share

The net loss for the fourth quarter 2008 was $29.0 million ($0.79 per share) compared with ($0.05) per share the prior quarter and ($0.29) per share for the same period in 2007. Net loss for fiscal 2008 was $33.9 million ($0.92 per share) compared to $13.9 million ($0.70 per share) for the prior year. As described above several non-operating factors affected our net loss in the fourth quarter including impairment charges on long-lived assets and inventory write-downs. In addition, net loss was impacted by volume increases, increased overheads reflecting our growth in staff and operational resources, corporate initiatives and non-cash unrealized foreign exchange losses incurred in the year.

Cash and Short-Term Investments

At December 31, 2008, we had $25.8 million in cash and short term investments, including restricted cash of $11.1 million, down from total cash and short term investments of $43.6 million at September 30, 2008 and from $94.6 million at year end 2007. The $25.8 million does not include an additional $8.2 million in proceeds received in January from Jabil from the sale of equipment as part of the outsource agreement.

Despite the difficulties of the second half of 2008 the company did make progress on several key initiatives outlined in its business plan including:

- Completing the industrial scale-up of our proprietary Day4 Electrode technology - Completing the first phase of outsource manufacturing, resulting in a unique, flexible, low capital-expense business model - Implementing cost reduction and restructuring designed to enhance the ability to operate effectively in the new market environment - Entering a new vertical market of turn-key PV power projects - Demonstrating strong cost reduction potential with next generation proprietary PV cell technology Outlook

The underlying instability in the economy and an extended weather delay in our primary market well into the first quarter of 2009 are expected to impact our results for the early part of 2009. In addition to an expected impact on our revenues and gross margins in the first half of the year, the continued downward pressure on ASP may result in further write-downs of inventory in the first quarter of 2009.

We have reduced production at our Burnaby based facility to minimal levels to avoid build up of additional inventory and manage our cash position. Our first priority is to continue with the production ramp at Jabil to take advantage of the lower cost, more efficient production and closer proximity to our primary market. We expect demand to pick up through the second quarter allowing us to move current inventory while the Jabil facility completes its ramp and becomes fully operational.

Our normal practice is to secure volume commitments from our customers and to set prices no more than one year into the future. We have concluded pricing discussions with approximately 41% (22.4MW) of our 55MW order book. The balance of this contracted volume is contingent on reaching mutually satisfactory agreements as per pricing with our channel partners. We will continue discussions with the remainder of the outstanding contracts throughout the year.

Aktuell kostet eine day4 energy-Aktie "nur" 0,84 CAD. Vor exakt einem Jahr hingegen kostete eine Aktie 6,00 CAD. Also selbst wenn die alten Höchststände nicht erreicht werden, sollte trotzdem eine weitere Erholung des Aktienkurses erfolgen.

HAllo hbg55,

ich bin gestern bei 0,84 CAD eingestiegen und habe eigentlich ein gutes Bauchgefühl. Hoffentlich irre ich mich nicht.

Schon letztes Jahr fand ich diesen Wert sehr interessant, war mir aber bei Kursen um 5 CAD noch zu teuer. Aber nun überwiegen für mich die Chancen und auch die von dir genannten Insider-Käufe deuten auf positives hin. Lassen wir uns (hoffentlich positiv) überraschen.

Seit wann bist du eigentlich investiert und zu welchem Kaufkurs ?

Was mir gefällt, dass der Kurs bei Tageshoch beendet hat und auch die INSIDER-Käufe sind bestimmt nicht ohne Grund

Wenn man sich den Jahres-Chart anschaut, dann erkenne ich charttechnisch Luft bis etwa 1,05 Euro (nicht CAD). Mal schauen, ob sich der Aufwärtstrend in der nächsten Woche fortsetzen wird.

ne, ne jungs ich bin auch noch da

[sekko1982]

Hier mal eine charttechnische Analyse von einem guten Freund von mir, der sehr gute charttechnischen Anaylsen durchführt:

Nach Auswertung aller Indikatoren und des Charts komme ich zu folgendem Ergebnis:

Chart "long view" (6 Monate)



durchaus gute Platzierung (bei aktuellem Kauf)

Chart formte eine Art 'Tasse' (nicht 'Tasse mit Henkel', das ist eine Fortsetzungsformation) dennoch finde ich die Tasse hier recht interessant, sie hat eine Boden bei 0.33 (alle Angaben in kanadischen Dollar CAD, da Leitbörse Toronto) der Chart befindet sich augenblicklich in einem Aufwärtstrend vom Boden aus.


Eine Widerstandszone befindet sich unzweifelhaft im Bereich 0.95 - 0.99 CAD, bei erfolgreichen Bruch (breakout) mittelfristiges Kurs/Gewinnziel +50% (1.50 CAD) nach meiner Einschätzung (aber Achtung! ich kenne den fundamentalen background des Wertes nicht! CT allein genügt nicht, weiß nur dass der Wert aus der Solar-Sparte kommt)


Ein Sicherheits-Stop würde ich bei spätestens 0.75 CAD platzieren um sicherzugehen, nicht in eine Fortsetzung des bisher gesehenen massiven Abwärtstrend zu geraten und um nicht mehr als 20% Kapitalverlust zu dulden, das kann man anderweitig wieder raustraden (bei -50% müsste man bereits das Kapital wieder verdoppeln und bei jenseits von -50% hört der Spass dann endgültig auf, aber das kennen wir ja von den motion 'longies' Zwinkern )


Zur Ergänzung ein zweiter Chart ("superlong") über 24 Monate, der die massiven Abwärtsphasen kenntlich macht, so dass man nicht vergißt wo der Laden herkommt... und ferner versucht mit gleitenden Durchschnitten, die handelbaren Phasen einzugrenzen (14, 20, 50, Erläuterungen im Chart)
[/url]

aktuell bestätigt auch dieses Modell ebenfalls ein Kauf unter der Prämisse, dass der Kurs den Widerstand bald bricht und sein Aufwärtsmomentum nicht wieder verliert (Rücksetzer sind erlaubt) Dazu sollte 'gelb über rot' sich möglichst fortsetzen (14 über 20) Das superlong Kursziel könnte im Bereich von 4.00 CAD liegen, ist aber nur eine grobe Angabe, da bis dahin wohl einiges auch fundamental bewegt werden muss. Für mich wäre das Kursziel aus dem ersten Chart interessanter und realistischer.


Viel Erfolg!

.......grad im SH- board entdeckt.......da gabs wohl am WE
ne empf. von GLOBE !!!!




2009-05-11 05:08 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Saturday, May 9, edition that Day4 Energy advanced 16 cents to close Friday on the Toronto Stock Exchange at 97 cents. The Globe's Ted Dixon writes in the Who Is Buying And Selling column that at the helm of Day4 Energy is chairman and chief executive officer John MacDonald. He was a co-founder of space technology firm MDA. Mr. Dixon notes that Day4 Energy insiders hold over 23 per cent of the solar module maker's shares. Mr. Dixon takes that as a significant and positive indicator. He says recent purchases by a director provide a strong insider signal of its share price potential.

Between March 20 and March 31, director Wolfgang Schmutz acquired 679,500 shares at between 44 cents to 65 cents apiece. In April, he bought another 1,108,000 shares at 65 cents each. Mr. Dixon says it is worth noting that Mr. Schmutz is based in Germany, a leader in alternative electrical power.

The Globe reported on July 8 that Blackmont Capital analyst Trevor Johnson targeted Day4 stock at $8 in one year. It was then trading at $3.26. The stock traded below 60 cents in December, but marked its 52-week low of 33 cents in March. The stock set its 52-week high of $6.19 a year ago in May.

Vor day4 energy habe ich mir Infineon zugelegt, im Dezemer bei
81 Cent, also im 80`er Cent-bereich. Und bekanntlich lief Infineon bis 2,70€. Bei day4 energy wäre ich mit 2,70 CAD natürlich absolut zufrieden.
Aber die Insider-Käufe sprechen hier schon für sich. Steht hier etwa eine positive news an ? Quartalszahlen gibt es am Freitag. Bin mal gespannt wohin die Reise morgen geht. Ich denke, dass wir morgen im Idealfall in Kanada mit einem gap eröffnen, denn der Schlusskurs auf Tageshoch wird das Interesse weiterer Anleger auf diese Aktie steigen lassen.

Solar PV module maker Day4 Energy sees quarterly revenues slide, shuts down internal production
15 May 2009 | By Tom Cheyney | News > PV Modules

Canadian solar module manufacturer Day4 Energy saw its first-quarter revenues slide 74% from the previous period and drop 68% compared to last year, as the company endured the challenging macroeconomic and PV market conditions. Slow demand and mounting inventories forced Day4 to temporarily shut down its Burnaby, BC, manufacturing site, while the company continued the external production ramp with Jabil, its contract manufacturing partner.

First-quarter revenues of $4.3 million decreased by $12.3 million from the prior-quarter revenues and by $9.2 million for the same period in 2008. A gross loss of 11% for the first quarter compared to a loss of 45% in 4Q2008 and a gross margin of 2% for the same period in 2008. Adjusted gross losses before inventory writedown were 4% and 13% for 1Q2009 and 4Q2008, respectively.

After reducing production to minimal levels at its Burnaby facility earlier this year, Day4 says it decided to halt production at that site to avoid buildup of additional inventory and manage its cash position. As recently as the end of 3Q2008, the factory near Vancouver was running at 82% of its 47-MW installed capacity, according to Day4. The company says that should demand pick up through the third quarter, as expected, it will be able to move its current inventory while the Jabil facility completes its ramp and becomes fully operational.

Day4 emphasizes that its priority, in addition to depleting current inventory, will be to continue with the production ramp at Jabil to take advantage of the lower cost, more efficient production, and closer proximity to its primary market. Some production will be maintained at the Burnaby facility as a pilot plant for further technology development, with production capacity there used to meet demand and serve the North American market in the future.

"The first quarter of 2009 was perhaps one of the most challenging quarters in the history of the solar sector," stated George Rubin (pictured above), president of Day4 Energy. "In response to these grim market conditions, significant decline in sales and associated deterioration in operating margin, management has continued defensive actions initiated in the fourth quarter with a demand-driven manufacturing approach. We have taken further steps to reduce our operating expenses and purchase commitments as well as protecting cash and working capital to the greatest extent possible."

"At the same time there are some positive aspects to the tough times we are experiencing," he continued. "Severe economic conditions have dramatically accelerated material cost reduction across the value chain. While this rapid average selling price deterioration clearly poses significant challenges to manufacturers in the near term, in the medium to long term this development is exactly what the industry needs to move closer to achieving grid parity.

"Further, the fundamental rebalancing of margin and power along the value chain continuum are important drivers for the long-term health and viability of the industry. Finally, in the short term, the rapid price declines should have driven up returns for capital investments in PV projects to a higher level and should offer a tremendous opportunity for those willing to invest in projects, particularly in countries such as Germany, Italy, and ultimately North American locations with strong subsidy programs.

"We are working cooperatively with our channel partners and cell suppliers to manage through these times. From the beginning our approach has been a collaborative model, and we are pleased that the relationships we have cultivated with our suppliers and partners are enabling us to weather this storm together," Rubin concluded.

Day4 also announced that directors Thomas Longworth and Mark Galvin will not stand for re-election at the company's upcoming annual meeting, and that John Stonier has been appointed as VP of strategic planning/treasurer.

Day4 Energy Introduces the Next Generation of Solar Electric Modules / New Guardian Technology Offers Intelligent Shading Protection, High Power Density, and Better ROI

BURNABY, BC, Sept. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Day4 Energy Inc., a leading technology developer and manufacturer of high performance solar electric modules, today announced the expansion of its product offering to include the Day4 60MC-I featuring the breakthrough Guardian Technology(TM). Guardian Technology dramatically improves the performance of the photovoltaic (PV) modules when exposed to partial shading, snow, debris and other external factors that under normal circumstances cause a substantial reduction in power yield. As a direct result, Day4 60MC-I modules with Guardian Technology are three times less sensitive to these external factors. They also offer as much as 25 percent greater power yield from the same installation area due to higher installation density and enable viable PV installations on many sites that have been previously considered not suitable for this purpose.

"With greater performance over the day, year and lifetime of the product, more energy is collected and more kilowatt hours are produced. This means a greater return on investment for the solar installation", said Day4 Energy president, George Rubin. "We understand that our customers are solar energy investors that are focused on kilowatt hours, not just kilowatts."

This new development builds on the Day4(R) Electrode platform, which is an advanced construction technology that directly replaces the decades-old soldering methods that are widely used to manufacture solar panels. By improving connections to and between PV cells, the Day4 Electrode delivers quality solar electric products with higher performance, longer lifetime, improved aesthetics and lower cost. The Day4 Electrode further enables more efficient design and manufacturing of next generation PV technologies. Guardian Technology is applicable to a wide variety of PV cell designs including back contact cell concepts and high efficiency cell designs currently under development at Day4 Energy.

"This new technology offers a great advantage for system performance under real world conditions. It will now be possible to install in areas that were thought of as unsuitable and still produce positive returns on the solar investment", says Leonid Rubin, chief technology officer of Day4 Energy. The company has been granted patent protection in relation to this new, unique technology.

The 60MC-I featuring Guardian Technology is in the process of receiving IEC - TUV Rheinland and UL certifications and based on very positive internal testing is expected to be certified for sale in both the European and North American markets in early 2010. The module will be launched at the EU PVSEC in Hamburg in September and Solar Power International in Anaheim in October. Please visit us in Hall B6, Stand 63 in Hamburg and booth 1439 in Anaheim to learn more about the 60MC-I and Guardian Technology. Join the Day4 sales team for daily presentations on the technology and its benefits.

Burnaby, British Columbia — September 21, 2009 —Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a leading manufacturer of high performance, cost effective solar electric modules, today announced further extension of its patented Day4® Electrode technology to back contact solar cells. Application of the Day4 Electrode for the interconnection of back contact solar cells offers a number of unique benefits. The technology reduces the number of photovoltaic (PV) cell handling steps during the module assembly process to as low as one. The significance of this change goes beyond mere simplification of the manufacturing process. Reduction in the number of handling steps is expected to result in an improvement in manufacturing yields as well as allowing for commercial implementation of larger, thinner and thus less expensive solar cells. Additionally, Day4 Electrode’s superior power collection properties permit the design of larger size back contact solar cells and as much as a ten-fold reduction in the amount of silver used in the manufacturing of high efficiency back contact solar cells.

At this time there are two main types of solar cells on the market. While conventional PV cells are designed with positive and negative electrical contacts positioned on opposite sides of the solar cell, back contact cells have both of these electrical contacts on the rear side.

“The successful extension of our unique manufacturing technology to back contact solar cells is yet another step toward establishing Day4 Electrode technology as a true next generation platform for the design and production of solar cells and modules” said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. Day4’s technology has the potential to expand this already established market currently held by a leading solar module manufacturer.







“Over the course of the last few years the Day4 Electrode technology has been enabling superior performance and technical innovation with conventional solar cell design approaches. When combined with high efficiency back contact solar cell design, the Day4 Electrode enables a whole array of cost reduction and further efficiency improvement possibilities that can make a real difference in the overall economics of solar power generation” adds Professor Leonid Rubin, chief technology officer of Day4 Energy. Day4 has filed a patent application for this novel method of interconnecting back contact cells used in solar electric modules.

The Day4 Electrode is the industry leading next generation PV module technology that directly replaces the decades-old soldering methods that are widely used to manufacture solar panels. By improving connections to and between photovoltaic (PV) cells, the Day4 Electrode delivers quality solar electric products with higher performance, longer lifetime, improved aesthetics and lower cost. As a manufacturing platform Day4 Electrode further enables a series of innovations in the area of PV cell design that lead to both lower manufacturing cost and higher efficiency of PV cells specifically designed for interconnection with Day4 Electrode technology. The Day4 Electrode further enables more efficient design and manufacturing of next generation PV technologies.

Q3 2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Worldwide Product Revenues

Third quarter revenues of $13.3 million increased by $7.6 million or 133% from the prior quarter revenues and decreased by $ 18.4 million for the same period in 2008. The increase in revenues compared to the prior quarter is due to a relatively solid recovery in demand in our primary markets. The decrease in revenue versus the same period in 2008 was primarily due to the impact of the global economic recession and financial crisis that started in the fourth quarter 2008 The annual period comparison is skewed because Q3 2008 was the strongest in the history of the company and while the trend has been increased demand over the past couple of quarters it has not reached the levels seen prior to the start of the recession.

Gross Margins

The gross margin of $0.1 million for the third quarter compared to a loss of $10.8 million in the second quarter 2009 and a gross loss of $0.5 million in the same period in 2008. The higher gross loss in the prior quarter was primarily the result of an inventory write-down and period costs relating to low capacity utilization. There were no inventory write-downs in the third quarter, however we did incur period costs of $0.9 million relating to fixed overhead costs due to low capacity utilization at Jabil Circuits Inc. that unfavorably impacted our gross margin.

Expenses

For the third quarter of 2009, general and administrative expenses were $1.9 million, relatively consistent compared to the prior quarter expenses of $2.0 million and the expenses in the third quarter of 2008 of $2.0 milion.

Sales and marketing expenses of $0.9 million for the third quarter 2009 compared to $1.0 million and $0.9 million in the previous quarter and the same period in 2008 respectively.

R&D expenses in the third quarter increased to $1.0 million from $0.5 million in the prior quarter and $0.7 million for the same period in 2008. The increase primarily related to the costs associated with our Burnaby facility that is now used almost exclusively for R&D purposes, following the transfer of production to Jabil. All production equipment, personnel and facility costs, with the exception of the Day4 Electrode wire production, have been reallocated from production to R&D as we focus on the development of the Day4 Electrode and new products. Staff assigned to R&D was forty-one at the end of the third quarter compared to nine for the same quarter ended in 2008.

Loss Per Share

The net loss for the third quarter 2009 was $4.2million ($0.12) per share compared with $14.1 million ($0.38) per share for the prior quarter and $1.7 million ($0.05) per share for the same period in 2008. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $21 million ($0.57) per share compared to $4.9 million ($0.13) per share for the same period in 2008. Higher net loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 was mainly attributed to the inventory write-down, activities relating to the start up of Jabil and fixed overhead period cost due to low capacity utilization.

Cash and Short-Term Investments

At September 30, 2009, we had $21 million in cash and short term investments, including restricted cash of $0.4 million, even with total cash and short term investments of $21 million at June 30, 2009 and $26 million at December 31, 2008.Cash used by operations was $0.4 million for the third quarter 2009, compared to $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $8.4 million for the same period in 2008. Cash used in operating activities significantly decreased from the comparable periods in 2008 through cost reduction programs to manage working capital and preserve cash.

Day4 Energy wins Massive Contract

2010-01-07 06:31 ET - News Release

Ms. Therese Hayes reports

DAY4 ENERGY EXPANDS CONTRACT FOR SOLAR ELECTRIC PROJECTS IN ONTARIO TO 5.1MW WITH HYBRIDYNE POWER SYSTEMS CANADA

Day4 Energy Inc. has entered into a supply contract to provide a total of 5.1 megawatts or 23,000 modules to Ontario's Hybridyne Power Systems Canada Inc., a 47.5-per-cent-owned affiliate of Atlantic Wind and Solar Inc., which specializes in the design, construction and management of utility-scale renewable energy parks. The 5.1-megagatt suite of projects consists of the two-megawatt Newcastle Solar Energy Park, which was recently announced by AWSL, along with 3.1 megawatts of rooftop arrays for the Toronto area.

Located approximately 80 kilometres east of Toronto, the two-megawatt Newcastle ground-mounted energy park will be the largest array from the group of projects and is expected to break ground in the second quarter of 2010. The 10-acre Solar Energy Park will combine approximately 8,900 highly efficient Day4 60MC-I guardian solar modules with eight of Hybridyne's HPE Hyperwatt 250 XLS professional series PV inverters to efficiently capture and deliver enough clean energy to power more than 360 homes each year. It will be one of Canada's larger photovoltaic (PV) installations upon its completion in late 2010.

The additional 3.1 megawatts of Day4 modules to be supplied above and beyond the initial two-megawatt Newcastle announcement will be used by Atlantic Wind and Solar on a variety of industrial and commercial flat roof arrays in the Toronto area.

"We are excited about working together with Hybridyne, one of our long-standing channel partners in Canada, towards providing Ontario customers with industry-leading PV energy generation solutions," said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. "This supply agreement is a result of our growing emphasis on the Canadian as well as overall North American market. It is also an indicator of the increasing volume of business opportunities that are emerging in this market."

"Quite simply, we intend to build one of the most efficient Solar Energy Parks in the world," said Thomas Cleland, president of Hybridyne Power Systems Canada Inc. and chief technical officer of Atlantic Wind and Solar. "By working exclusively with Day4 Energy's unique panels and using our own high-performance Hyperwatt XL PV inverter technology, the entire system is designed to garner much more usable electricity from the sun, allowing us to best utilize our allotted real estate and regional solar resource."

The Day4 solar module is based on the company's proprietary Day4 Electrode technology, an innovative approach to module construction that directly replaces decades-old soldering methods. The result is a high-quality Day4 solar electric product with higher performance, longer life, improved aesthetics and lower cost.

Hybridyne's advanced inverter technology is specifically designed to work with the Day4 Energy modules to convert direct current (DC) energy from the sun into usable alternating current (AC) electricity for the Ontario utility grid. Based on Hybridyne's data this advanced inverter technology provides up to 30 per cent more kilowatt hours of clean, renewable electricity when compared with conventional inverter technology. Thorough internal testing for the past few months in Ontario has confirmed outstanding performance of the Day4 modules and the inverter technology.

Day4 Energy Announces Agreement To Acquire ACI-ecotec GmbH & Co. KG / Acquisition enables immediate launch of Day4's turn-key PV cell and PV module manufacturing solution for the PV industry

BURNABY, BC, April 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a leading supplier of high performance, cost-effective solar electric solutions, today announced that following approval from the Day4 Energy Inc ("Day4") board of directors it has entered into an agreement in principle to acquire ACI-ecotec GmbH&Co. KG ("ACI"), a privately owned specialized photovoltaic (PV) equipment design and manufacturing company based in Germany. Day4 will acquire 100% of ACI in an all stock transaction of up to 10.8 million shares of Day4 subject to post closing adjustment. The acquisition is subject to the completion of definitive documentation, approval of these documents by Day4's directors and obtaining all required consents and approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange to the issue of the Day4 shares.

The combination of the Day4 proprietary and patented technology and ACI's specialized know-how and equipment allows Day4 to immediately launch the offering of its highly anticipated turn-key manufacturing technology solution for production of PV cells and PV modules based on proprietary technologies developed by Day4. ACI's existing customer relationships, execution capabilities and solid market reputation provide Day4 with a unique opportunity to rapidly roll out its manufacturing technology offering across a wide cross section of PV manufacturers in a number of key markets. At the same time ACI's manufacturing process and equipment engineering capabilities will add significant depth to Day4's R&D team and allow the company to significantly accelerate the development of the next generations of PV technology.

Based on the patented Day4 Electrode and Guardian technologies, Day4's manufacturing solution offers PV cell and module producers an opportunity to reduce their investment and production costs while achieving sustainable differentiation in highly competitive solar markets by producing one of the industry's highest performing products that customers around the world have grown to associate with the highest levels of reliability, energy production and investment return.

With technological differentiation rapidly emerging as a critical area for most PV manufacturers, Day4's offering of a turn-key package of manufacturing technology, proprietary equipment, process, product design and technology license is a natural evolution of the company's business.

"Technology and market development has been the focal point of our strategy since the company was founded in 2001. Over the course of the last 3 years we have completed the industrial scale-up of our proprietary manufacturing process. We have also built a strong track record of superior field performance and quality behind the Day4 product brand. Today we have taken the next step towards making this next generation technology platform available to partners across the industry," said George Rubin, president of Day4. "ACI's engineering and manufacturing system integration capabilities are critical to our ability to deliver our industry leading technology platform to the PV industry. What makes this acquisition particularly attractive is the level of interest ACI was able to generate among its customers during the test marketing of the Day4 manufacturing solution package and overall business proposition."

By offering a turn-key Day4 PV cell and PV module manufacturing solution to the PV industry Day4 is looking to significantly expand the market share of products based on Day4's proprietary technology in existing as well as new and emerging markets around the world. Furthermore, Day4 manufacturing solutions sales are expected to significantly alter the company's revenue model as manufacturing line integration services and technology royalty streams associated with the new product offering become an increasingly large component of the company's revenue mix over time.

"We are very excited about the chance to work with Day4 in this new venture to address this unique and exciting opportunity," added Mr. Karl-Heinz Menauer, CEO of ACI. "Our established relationships with a large number of PV industry manufacturers can be leveraged for the purpose of ramping up sales of Day4 technology. In fact, our pre-marketing efforts have been met with a high degree of excitement and enthusiasm with a number of ACI customers already approaching us to join the Day4 platform. This is an opportunity for a number of these players to elevate themselves from the pack with a unique product offering, reduced manufacturing cost base and access to future technology enhancements based on this next generation manufacturing platform."

"By expanding our business to offer a complete manufacturing solution we are taking the logical and critical next step in the evolution of our company towards our ultimate goals of achieving energy cost parity and expanding the presence of Day4's innovative high performance technology in solar generation markets while making efficient use of our capital," said Dr. John MacDonald, CEO and Chairman of Day4.

The company will provide more specific financial guidance regarding the positive impacts of the transaction during its first quarter earnings conference call on May 11, 2010. The parties anticipate closing the transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, in the first half of 2010.

GMP Securities L.P. provided a fairness opinion regarding the acquisition to the Day4 board of directors.

Conference Call Information

Day4's management will conduct a conference call at 8:30am (ET) April 27, 2010 to discuss the acquisition and franchise business model. The call can be accessed by dialing 1-800-319-4610 (Canada and US) or 1-604-638-5340 (International) prior to the start of the call. Following the call a recording of the conference call will be archived on Day4's website, http://www.day4energy.com/.

(TSX: DFE), a leading supplier of high performance, cost-effective solar electric solutions, today announced significant expansion plans for their third party manufacturing facility in Europe. Day4 Energy is expanding production from 50MW (megawatts) annually to 120MW to meet increased demand for the Company's high performance photovoltaic products.

"This decision is a direct result of a significant increase in demand that has allowed us to bring our manufacturing facilities in Poland to full capacity earlier this year. We believe that despite the upcoming changes to subsidy programs in Germany, market demand for PV products will continue to be underpinned by renewed investor appetite in existing as well as emerging markets and increased bank debt availability", said George Rubin, president of Day4 Energy. "In addition to allowing us to meet increased demand we will benefit from reduced costs due to the increase in production volume. This in turn will further assist us in achieving the cost reduction required to continue offering our customers attractive return on investment solutions even after the changes in German feed-in-tariff are finally implemented."

The first phase of expansion, an increase to 75MW capacity, will be completed by mid-May and the expansion to 120MW will be completed by the end of June. The expansion plans include increasing productivity from 5 to 7 days a week as well as the addition of new commercial lines dedicated to the production of the newly introduced 60MC-I module with Guardian Technology. The current production mix at the facility is focused on the company's 48MC-S module. However, Day4 Energy expects that demand for the new 60MC-I module will require 80% of production capacity by the third quarter of this year.

Day4 Energy Announces First Turnkey Manufacturing License With Enersis for the Eastern European Market

BURNABY, Canada, May 27, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a leading supplier of high performance, cost-effective solar electric solutions, today announced that it has signed an agreement with Enersis, the second largest PV company in Slovenia, for a 25 megawatt (MW) turnkey manufacturing technology solution for the production of Day4 Energy ("Day4") branded products to address the rapidly growing Eastern European photovoltaic market.

"We are very excited about this announcement, the first in a series of licensing agreements that we expect will add significant revenue to Day4 from 2011 onward," said George Rubin, President of Day4. "This is a clear example of how Day4's turnkey manufacturing technology solution provides the ability to scale the volume of business and increase market share in emerging markets for Day4 products and brand without a significant requirement on capital investment by Day4."

At current market prices and full capacity utilization the 25 MW line is expected to provide approximately 1.2 million Euros per year in royalty revenue to Day4. Once the acquisition of ACI is complete Day4 expects to recognize two distinct revenue streams from these transactions:

1. The first is one-time revenue of roughly 3 million Euros from the sale of equipment and consulting services related to construction and set up of the turnkey production line. 2. The second is the ongoing royalty revenue stream, as referred to above, on the sales of products manufactured using the turnkey manufacturing line.

"Eastern Europe has tremendous growth potential and is already the third largest market on the continent behind Italy and Germany. We are looking forward to working with Day4 in this new venture to address this unique and exciting opportunity," added Mr. Andrej Hanzic, Director of Enersis. "Our established relationships and position as the second largest PV industry company in Slovenia can be leveraged for the purpose of ramping up sales of the Day4 branded technology products."

About Day4's Manufacturing Technology Solution:

-----------------------------------------------

On April 26, 2010 Day4 announced that it had entered an agreement in principle to acquire ACI-ecotec GmbH&Co. KG ("ACI"), a privately owned, specialized photovoltaic (PV) equipment design and manufacturing company based in Germany. The combination of the Day4 proprietary technology and ACI's specialized know-how and equipment allows Day4 to immediately launch the offering of its highly anticipated turn-key manufacturing technology solution for the production of PV cells and PV modules. ACI's existing customer relationships, execution capabilities and solid market reputation provide Day4 with a unique opportunity to rapidly roll out its manufacturing technology offering across a wide cross section of PV manufacturers in a number of key markets. At the same time, ACI's manufacturing process and equipment engineering capabilities will add significant depth to Day4's R&D team and allow the company to significantly accelerate the development of the next generations of PV technology.

Based on the patented Day4 Electrode and Guardian technologies, Day4's manufacturing solution offers PV cell and module producers an opportunity to reduce their investment and production costs while achieving sustainable differentiation in highly competitive solar markets. The solution will allow them to produce one of the industry's highest performing products that customers around the world have grown to associate with the highest levels of reliability, energy production and investment return.

With technological differentiation rapidly emerging as a critical area for most PV manufacturers, Day4's offering of a turn-key package of manufacturing technology, proprietary equipment, process, product design and technology license is a natural evolution of the company's business.

By offering a turn-key Day4 PV cell and PV module manufacturing solution to the PV industry, Day4 is looking to significantly expand the market share of products based on Day4's proprietary technology in existing as well as new and emerging markets around the world. Furthermore, Day4 manufacturing solutions sales are expected to significantly alter the company's revenue model as manufacturing line integration services and technology royalty streams associated with the new product offering become an increasingly large component of the company's revenue mix over time.

Day4 Energy gibt die Ergebnisse des vierten Quartals und des gesamten Jahres 2010 bekannt =

Burnaby, Kanada (ots/PRNewswire) - Day4 Energy Inc. , ein
führender globaler Anbieter von Produkten und Lösungen für
Fotovoltaik (PV), gab heute die Geschäftsergebnisse für das vierte
Quartal und das gesamte Jahr 2010 bekannt.
....
Die wichtigsten Ereignisse des Quartals und des gesamten Jahres
2010:

1. Verstärkung der Marktdurchdringung

Während des letzten Jahres erhöhten wir den Umsatz auf 166,7 Mio.
$, was einer Steigerung um 178 % gegenüber dem Vorjahr entspricht.
Ferner haben wir neue Märkte erschlossen und die geografische
Vielfalt unserer Marktpräsenz erhöht. Unser Umsatz auf dem
italienischen Markt stieg auf 76,6 Mio. $ gegenüber 4,3 Mio. $ im
Jahr 2009. Gleichzeitig erhöhten wir unsere Verkaufspräsenz in
Zukunftsmärkten einschliesslich von Australien, wo unser Umsatz auf
3,7 Mio. $ stieg, während er im Jahr 2009 noch Null betrug.

2. Verbesserung der Produktkostenstruktur

Während der letzten 12 Monate konzentrierten wir unsere
Anstrengungen in den Bereichen Produktion, sowie in Forschung und
Entwicklung auf die Verbesserung der Kostenstruktur unserer
Produktangebote. Während des ersten und zweiten Quartals 2010
konzentrierten sich unsere Bemühungen im Hinblick auf
Produktkostenreduzierungen auf den Übergang zu neuen,
kostengünstigeren Produktkonzepten und der Erweiterung unserer
Herstellungspräsenz in der Anlage in Jabil, Polen. Während der
zweiten Hälfte des Jahres verbesserten wir die Produktkostenstruktur
weiter, indem wir die Materialaufwendungen anpassten, um auch
preisgünstige Komponenten einzuschliessen. Wir achteten aber
gleichzeitig darauf, die hohen Qualitätsstandards unserer
Produktangebote aufrecht zu erhalten. Das Ergebnis dieser
Anstrengungen bestand darin, dass wir während des gesamten Jahres
eine positive Bruttomarge hatten. Im vierten Quartal 2010 erreichten
wir eine Bruttomarge von 8 % - und dies, obwohl
Wechselkursschwankungen während des Jahres einen deutlich negativen
Einfluss auf unsere Umsatzkosten hatten.

3. Entwicklung der Grundlagen für künftiges Wachstum

Unsere betrieblichen Aufwendungen übertrafen auch in diesem Jahr
den Bruttogewinn. Deshalb entwickelten wir die Grundlage für ein
Geschäftsmodell, von dem wir glauben, dass es uns in die Lage
versetzen wird, das volle Potenzial unseres neu aufgebauten eigenen
Herstellungsprozesses zu nutzen und schliesslich unsere Gewinnmargen
auf ein nachhaltig positives Niveau zu erhöhen. Durch die Akquisition
von ACI im Herbst 2010 haben wir die Erfahrungen als
Technologieentwickler, Modul- und Ausrüstungshersteller mit Marketing
und Vertriebsexperten für Kunden rund um die Welt kombiniert, die ein
PV-Geschäft durch unser Day4 solarSYSTEMS-Lizenzprogramm begründen
oder ausbauen möchten.
