Revolution Lighting Tech Shares Quiet Despite Letter from CEO to Holders

In a letter addressed toshareholders, Robert V. LaPenta, CEO and Chairman of Revolution LightingTechnologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: RVLT), addressed the company's plans for continuedexpansion and development in 2013. Revolution Lighting Technologies designs,manufactures and distributes high-quality LED lighting productsinternationally under the Seesmart, Lumificient and Array brand names.Dear Fellow Shareholders:2012 was a transition year for Revolution Lighting and we enter 2013 withgreat excitement and promise in the changes taking place in the LED Lightingmarketplace and within Revolution Lighting.On September 25, 2012, Aston Capital completed its initial capital investmentin Revolution Lighting (formerly known as Nexxus Lighting.) The investment wasused to extinguish the company's outstanding debt and resolve all outstandinglegal issues.We then repositioned the company's strategic focus from the consumer retailmarket, to the larger and rapidly growing commercial, industrial, andmunicipal segments. We believe a successful company in this space will requirea broad, state of the art, quality product portfolio, as well as a large welltrained distribution network. We accomplished both of these goals when weacquired Seesmart Technologies, Inc. on December 20th 2012. The integration isgoing extremely well, and with our recently announced equity transactions, weenter 2013 well capitalized and prepared for the exciting market potentialthat we believe lies ahead.There are many studies documenting the changes taking place in the worldwidelighting market. The reports describe the transition to solid state LEDsources, with anticipated annual growth rates ranging from 30% to 50% over thenext 5 to 7 years. Today LED lighting represents less than 15% of theavailable market. LED penetration by the year 2020 is expected to grow to 75%with a market total in excess of $100 billion. Revolution is in the rightplace at the right time. Our pipeline of opportunities is expanding andcustomer acceptance is happening now.Realizing the potential savings for LED lighting sources, governments aroundthe world are enacting legislation mandating the transition away fromtraditional lighting technologies. In the US, the Energy Independence andSecurity Act of 2007 was enacted to facilitate the transition. LED lightingcan be over 80% more efficient than traditional legacy lighting and is beingutilized as a way to not only "Go Green" but also to recognize significantelectricity savings. It is estimated that over 40% of a building's energyusage is generated from lighting. In addition, most LED lighting is 100%recyclable and when combined with its 80% plus greater efficiency, it is easyto see why LED lighting is becoming the new standard around the world. Othercountries including Japan, South Korea, China and Indonesia have recentlyenacted legislation mandating the transition to more efficient lightingtechnologies. Japan's penetration rate is expected to rise to 73.8% by 2015while South Korea and China are expected to see significant gains as well.Our vision at RVLT is simple. We will provide LED lighting solutions that areinnovative, energy efficient, cost effective and with the highest standardsfor customer service. We've made progress on fulfilling this vision, but wehave plenty of work ahead. As part of this growing process, we are working tocreate better metrics to track our progress, invest in long-term innovationand build new partnerships to help achieve our performance and goals.We will continue to invest in technology and state of the art products withthe highest quality and performance. An example of our recent efforts ishighlighted by the recent introduction of the UL-listed 15-watt LED tube lampfrom our Seesmart division, immediately becoming the most efficient four-footT8 lamp on the market, utilizing the lowest wattage and generating the highestlight output in its category.The early trends for 2013 are encouraging and we expect to see significantgains in topline growth and profitability for the year.With our management team, our dedicated employees, our portfolio of qualityproducts and our extensive distribution network, Revolution Lighting is wellpositioned to succeed for the benefit of our employees, our customers and ourshareholders.Sincerely,Robert V.
