We are an integrated solar energy company, incorporated in Nevada. We were founded in 2008 to conduct business in the United States and subsequently commenced operation in China following two acquisitions in 2015. We operate in two segments – the United States operations and the China operations. We are a holding company, with our United States operations conducted by our United States subsidiaries, and our China operations by our Chinese subsidiaries, which operate separately from our United States operations. 

Our United States operations primarily consist of (i) the sale and installation of photovoltaic and battery backup systems for residential and commercial customers, (ii) financing the sale of its photovoltaic and battery backup systems, and (iii) sales of LED systems and services to government and commercial users.

Our China operations, which are conducted by our wholly owned subsidiaries, consist primarily of identifying and procuring solar farm projects for resale to third parties and performing engineering, procuring and construction (“EPC”) services primarily for solar farm projects. Although we are a Nevada corporation with significant operations in the United States, through our PRC subsidiaries, we conduct business in China and our China business is subject to Chinese law. There are legal and operational risks associated with having operations in China. See “Risk Factors” beginning on Page 22 of the prospectus.
