Highlight of Business Operations:
For fiscal 2009, we recognized net revenue of $53.0 million, which included $34.8 million of solar revenue or approximately 66% of our total revenue. These results compare to $80.3 million of net revenue for fiscal 2008, which included $50.1 million of solar revenue or approximately 62% of our total revenue. Our order backlog as of September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $32.4 million and $46.7 million, respectively, a 31% decrease. Our backlog as of September 30, 2009 included approximately $27.9 million of orders from our solar industry customers compared to $36.7 million of orders from our solar industry customers as of September 30, 2008. Because our orders are typically subject to cancellation or delay by the customer, our backlog at any particular point in time is not necessarily representative of actual sales in subsequent periods, nor is backlog any assurance that we will realize revenue or profit from completing these orders.Established, Diversified Customer Base.
