Repositioned as an LED Company, Orion to Ring NYSE Closing Bell Today

MANITOWOC, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Orion Energy Systems, Inc. (NYSE MKT: OESX) (“Orion” or the “Company”), a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance, energy-efficient lighting platforms, today announced that Chief Executive Officer, John Scribante, and Chairman, Jim Kackley will be joined by other Company executives and associates today to ring The Closing Bell at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) at 4:00 p.m. ET.

Orion will ring The Closing Bell to commemorate the Company’s recent repositioning and rebranding as a leading innovator in the LED lighting retrofit market. With an 18-year history of providing an unrivaled customer experience to over 170 Fortune 500 customers, Orion has focused on positioning the Company to take advantage of the transition to more energy-efficient and cost effective LED lighting solutions for the office, retail and commercial industries.

Orion’s rebranding initiative was launched at the Company’s Annual Sales Summit, which took place on October 13th and 14th in Chicago, IL. The summit was attended by over 250 members and resellers, representing 80 different companies from across the country. The rebranding campaign represents a new direction for the Company, which dramatically expanded its LED suite of lighting solutions recently to include new high bay, interior, and exterior products.

Mr. Scribante commented, “I’m honored to be here at the NYSE to celebrate the unveiling of Orion’s fresh new brand, and I thank our employee members who have worked hard and contributed much to our turnaround and growth. The market for retrofitting existing lighting solutions with new LED products is enormous, with minimal adoption in the office, retail and commercial space. Orion is well-equipped to take advantage of this opportunity, with a wider array of LED products combined with an expanded sales network. Our look and feel has changed, but our commitment remains to provide the best products, services and customer experience in the industry.”
