    3 The company adopted the new
     revenue recognition standard
     effective January 1, 2018. The
     prior periods presented here
     have been restated to reflect
     adoption of the new standard.

"Our solid execution, ability to meet project deadlines and commitment to controlling costs enabled us to exceed our forecasts across all of our business segments," said Tom Werner, SunPower CEO and chairman of the board. "In our distributed generation business (DG), we continued to gain share in both our residential and commercial end markets as we saw strong demand throughout the quarter. In commercial, we completed and sold a number of key projects including our 7-megawatt (MW) Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB) project as well as our 4-MW carport, rooftop and ground system for Campbell Soup. Additionally, interest in our recently launched Helix commercial storage solution remained strong as we added to our pipeline during the quarter. Demand for our high quality, industry leading residential solutions was also robust as we exceeded plan in all core markets with our U.S. residential business posting record first quarter results. In our power plant business, we executed well as we met our project milestones including the sale of our 126-MW Guajiro development project in Mexico to Atlas Renewables. Finally, we further expanded the global footprint of our SunPower Solutions (SPS) group as first quarter shipments exceeded 100 MW and we remain on plan to deploy up to 1 gigawatt (GW) in SPS this year.

"In our upstream business, we achieved our cost reduction targets and our Fabs remain at 100 percent utilization. We also continued tool installation for our first full-scale Next Generation Technology (NGT) production line at Fab 3 with first silicon expected in June and volume production planned in the fourth quarter.

"Over a year ago, we embarked on a program to transform the company through the implementation of a number of key operational and strategic initiatives. Operationally, our goal was to improve cash flow, delever the balance sheet, divest certain assets, reduce operating expenses and simplify our financial reporting. Strategically, our initiatives have focused on improving our competitive position in a challenging industry environment while structuring the company for sustained profitability. As a result, we made the decision to sell our remaining power plant development assets, expand our global equipment sales business through our SPS group and reallocate resources to our faster growing, higher margin global DG business. Additionally, we committed to investing in those areas that offer further differentiation and growth potential including our industry leading cell and panel technology, our solar-plus-storage offerings, as well as our complete solutions product suite.

"Given the strong progress of our transformation initiatives over the last 12 months, we have now turned our efforts to the next phase of our strategy: optimizing our corporate structure to further reduce costs, improve financial transparency and better position the company for sustained profitability. As a result of these efforts, we believe that a model that more closely aligns us towards an upstream and downstream business unit structure offers us significant opportunities to maximize our core strengths in manufacturing, technology and products while streamlining decision making and simplifying our financial reporting.

"Specifically, in upstream we will focus our efforts on further leveraging our proprietary back contact cell technology, including NGT, as well as the continued ramp of our unique P-Series product which we expect to reach multi-GW scale by the end of this year. Also, with the recent announcement of our planned acquisition of SolarWorld Americas, we expect to expand our U.S. manufacturing footprint, adding additional cell and module capacity to serve growing demand in North America. With a broad portfolio of high efficiency, high quality DG product offerings, we believe we can capture greater market share and superior margins in the residential and commercial segments due to our differentiated technology attributes. In relation to the downstream, we plan on increasing investment in our U.S. DG business while leveraging our SPS group to continue to meet the demand of our global power plant and DG customer base. With the DG industry forecasted to grow by 40 percent over the next five years, our extensive product portfolio, solar-plus-storage offerings and a strong global power plant and rooftop channel strategy through SPS, we believe the transition to our new business unit structure will position us to drive long term, sustained financial success for our shareholders.

"Finally, we are progressing on our corporate initiatives to delever our balance sheet. For example, the sale of our ownership stake in 8point3 Energy Partners remains on plan with the shareholder vote on the proposed transaction scheduled for May 23, 2018. Also, we expect to monetize more than 400 MW of SunPower leases that we currently hold on our balance sheet over the coming quarters. In addition, we are in the process of actively divesting our North America power plant development assets in order to focus exclusively on leveraging our SPS group for power plant equipment sales. We believe these actions, as well as others, will materially increase our liquidity, improve cash flow and simplify our financial statements," concluded Werner.

"Our strong first quarter performance was driven by solid execution in all markets while prudently managing expenses," said Chuck Boynton, SunPower chief financial officer. "Financially, our efforts remain focused on improving cash flow, managing our working capital and executing on our restructuring initiatives. With our asset monetization plans on track and continued cost control, we are well positioned to retire our $300 million convert in June as well as having the resources to fund our growth plans this year."

First quarter fiscal 2018 non-GAAP results exclude net adjustments that, in the aggregate, improved non-GAAP earnings by $87.8 million, including $1.4 million related to sale-leaseback transactions, $45.1 million related to impairment of residential lease assets, $18.7 million related to cost of above market polysilicon, $11.2 million related to restructuring expense, $8.8 million related to stock-based compensation expense, and $2.6 million related to intangibles.

Financial Outlook
The company's second quarter GAAP guidance is as follows: revenue of $360 million to $410 million, gross margin of 2.5 percent to 4.5 percent and a net loss of $125 million to $100 million. Second quarter 2018 GAAP guidance includes the impact of revenue and timing deferrals due to sale-leaseback transactions as well as charges related to the company's restructuring initiatives. On a non-GAAP basis, the company expects revenue of $375 million to $425 million, gross margin of 6 percent to 8 percent, Adjusted EBITDA of $10 million to $35 million and megawatts deployed in the range of 350 MW to 380 MW. Second quarter non-GAAP guidance reflects timing differences related to the revenue recognition of certain power plant projects during the quarter.

Also, the company now expects fiscal year 2018 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $75 to $125 million. Fiscal year 2018 Adjusted EBITDA guidance assumes a $55 million negative impact related to tariffs associated with the section 201 trade case as well as a reduction of approximately $50 million of non-controlling interest income resulting from the anticipated sale of the company's lease portfolio in the second half of the year. On a comparative basis under the same assumptions, the company expects 10 to 15 percent year-over-year growth in 2018 Adjusted EBITDA.

The company will host a conference call for investors this afternoon to discuss its first quarter 2018 performance at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time. The call will be webcast and can be accessed from SunPower's website at http://investors.sunpower.com/events.cfm.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures that are adjusted for certain items from the most directly comparable GAAP measures, as described below. The specific non-GAAP measures listed below are: revenue; gross profit/margin; net income (loss); net income (loss) per diluted share; and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Management believes that each of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, enabling them to better assess changes in each of these key elements of the company's results of operations across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of certain items as described below. Thus, each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with another method to assess the company's operating results in a manner that is focused on its ongoing, core operating performance, absent the effects of these items. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to assess the business, its financial performance, current and historical results, as well as for strategic decision-making and forecasting future results. Many of the analysts covering the company also use these non-GAAP measures in their analyses. Given management's use of these non-GAAP measures, the company believes these measures are important to investors in understanding the company's operating results as seen through the eyes of management. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP or intended to be a replacement for GAAP financial data; the non-GAAP measures should be reviewed together with the GAAP measures and are not intended to serve as a substitute for results under GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Non-GAAP revenue includes adjustments relating to 8point3, utility and power plant projects, and sale-leaseback transactions, each as described below. In addition to those same adjustments, Non-GAAP gross profit/margin includes adjustments relating to impairment of residential lease assets, cost of above-market polysilicon, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation of idle equipment, and non-cash interest expense, each as described below. In addition to those same adjustments, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share are adjusted for adjustments relating to, restructuring expense, IPO-related costs, the tax effect of these non-GAAP adjustments, and other items, each as described below. In addition to the same adjustments as non-GAAP net income (loss), Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments relating to cash interest expense (net of interest income), provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation.

Non-GAAP Adjustments Based on International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS")

The company's non-GAAP results include adjustments to recognize revenue and profit under IFRS that are consistent with the adjustments made in connection with the company's reporting process as part of its status as a consolidated subsidiary of Total S.A., a foreign public registrant which reports under IFRS. Differences between GAAP and IFRS reflected in the company's non-GAAP results are further described below. In these situations, management believes that IFRS enables investors to better evaluate the company's revenue and profit generation performance, and assists in aligning the perspectives of our management and noncontrolling shareholders with those of Total S.A., our controlling shareholder.

    --  8point3. In 2015, 8point3 Energy Partners LP ("8point3 Energy
        Partners"), a joint YieldCo vehicle, was formed by the company and First
        Solar, Inc. ("First Solar" and, together with the company, the
        "Sponsors") to own, operate and acquire solar energy generation assets.
        Class A shares of 8point3 Energy Partners are now listed on the NASDAQ
        Global Select Market under the trading symbol "CAFD."  Immediately after
        the IPO, the company contributed a portfolio of 170 MW of its solar
        generation assets (the "SPWR Projects") to 8point3 Operating Company,
        LLC ("OpCo"), 8point3 Energy Partners' primary operating subsidiary.  In
        exchange for the SPWR Projects, the company received cash proceeds as
        well as equity interests in several 8point3 Energy Partners affiliated
        entities: primarily common and subordinated units representing a 40.7%
        (since reduced to 36.5% via a secondary issuance of shares in fiscal
        2016) stake in OpCo and a 50.0% economic and management stake in 8point3
        Holding Company, LLC ("Holdings"), the parent company of the general
        partner of 8point3 Energy Partners and the owner of incentive
        distribution rights in OpCo.  Holdings, OpCo, 8point3 Energy Partners
        and their respective subsidiaries are referred to herein as the "8point3
        Group" or "8point3."

The company includes adjustments related to the sales of projects contributed to 8point3 previously based on the difference between the fair market value of the consideration received and the net carrying value of the projects contributed, of which, a portion is deferred in proportion to the company's retained equity stake in 8point3. Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, these sales are recognized under either real estate, lease, or consolidation accounting guidance depending upon the nature of the individual asset contributed, with outcomes ranging from no, partial, or full profit recognition. The company adopted ASC 606 on January 1, 2018, using the full retrospective method, which required the company to restate each prior period presented. The company recorded a material amount of deferred profit associated with projects sold to 8point3 in 2015, the majority of which had previously been deferred under real estate accounting. Accordingly, the company's carrying value in the 8point3 materially increased upon adoption which required the company to evaluate its investment in 8point3 for other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI"). In accordance with such evaluation, the company recognized a non-cash impairment charge on the 8point3 investment balance in the prior periods that were affected.

    --  Utility and power plant projects. The company includes adjustments
        related to the revenue recognition of certain utility and power plant
        projects based the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total
        estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations and, when
        relevant, the allocation of revenue and margin to the company's project
        development efforts at the time of initial project sale. Prior to the
        adoption of ASC 606, such projects are accounted for under real estate
        accounting guidance, under which no separate allocation to the company's
        project development efforts occurs and the amount of revenue and margin
        that is recognized may be limited in circumstances where the company has
        certain forms of continuing involvement in the project. Under ASC 606,
        such projects are accounted for when the customer obtains control of the
        promised goods or services which generally results in earlier
        recognition of revenue and profit than previous GAAP. Over the life of
        each project, cumulative revenue and gross profit will eventually be
        equivalent under both ASC 606 and non-GAAP once these projects are
        completed.
    --  Sale-leaseback transactions. The company includes adjustments primarily
        related to the revenue recognition on certain sale-leaseback
        transactions based on the net proceeds received from the buyer-lessor.
        Under GAAP, these transactions are accounted for under the financing
        method in accordance with real estate accounting guidance. Under such
        guidance, no revenue or profit is recognized at the inception of the
        transaction, and the net proceeds from the buyer-lessor are recorded as
        a financing liability. Imputed interest is recorded on the liability
        equal to the company's incremental borrowing rate adjusted solely to
        prevent negative amortization.

Other Non-GAAP Adjustments

    --  Impairment of residential lease assets. In fiscal 2017, the company made
        the decision to sell its interest in the residential lease portfolio and
        as a result of this triggering event, determined it was necessary to
        evaluate the potential for impairment in its ability to recover the
        carrying amount of the residential lease portfolio. In accordance with
        such evaluation, the company recognized a non-cash impairment charge on
        its solar power systems leased and to be leased and an allowance for
        losses related financing receivables. In connection with the impairment
        loss, the carrying values of its solar power systems leased and to be
        leased were reduced which resulted in lower depreciation charges.
        Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude the impact of
        residential lease assets impairment and its corresponding depreciation
        savings from the company's non-GAAP financial measures as they are not
        reflective of ongoing operating results and do not contribute to a
        meaningful evaluation of a company's past operating performance.
    --  Cost of above-market polysilicon. The company has entered in previous
        years into multiple long-term, fixed-price supply agreements to purchase
        polysilicon for periods of up to 10 years. The prices in these supply
        agreements, which incorporate a cash portion and a non-cash portion
        attributable to the amortization of prepayments made under the
        agreements, significantly exceed market prices. Additionally, in order
        to reduce inventory and improve working capital, the company has
        periodically elected to sell polysilicon inventory in the marketplace at
        prices below the company's purchase price, thereby incurring a loss.
        Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude the impact of its
        above-market cost of polysilicon, including the effect of above-market
        polysilicon on product costs, losses incurred on sales of polysilicon to
        third parties, and inventory reserves and project asset impairments from
        the company's non-GAAP financial measures as they are not reflective of
        ongoing operating results and do not contribute to a meaningful
        evaluation of a company's past operating performance.
    --  Stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation relates primarily to
        the company's equity incentive awards. Stock-based compensation is a
        non-cash expense that is dependent on market forces that are difficult
        to predict. Management believes that this adjustment for stock-based
        compensation provides investors with a basis to measure the company's
        core performance, including compared with the performance of other
        companies, without the period-to-period variability created by
        stock-based compensation.
    --  Amortization of intangible assets. The company incurs amortization of
        intangible assets as a result of acquisitions, which includes patents,
        purchased technology, project pipeline assets, and in-process research
        and development. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude
        these amortization charges from the company's non-GAAP financial
        measures as they arise from prior acquisitions, are not reflective of
        ongoing operating results, and do not contribute to a meaningful
        evaluation of a company's past operating performance.
    --  Depreciation of idle equipment. In the fourth quarter of 2017, the
        company changed the deployment plan for its next generation of solar
        cell technology, which made certain then temporarily idle equipment
        obsolete, and therefore, retired that affected equipment. Such asset
        impairment is excluded from the company's non-GAAP financial measures as
        it is non-cash in nature and not reflective of ongoing operating
        results. Excluding this data provides investors with a basis to compare
        the company's performance against the performance of other companies
        without such charges.
    --  Non-cash interest expense. The company incurs non-cash interest expense
        related to the amortization of items such as original issuance discounts
        on its debt.  The company excludes non-cash interest expense because the
        expense does not reflect its financial results in the period incurred.
        Management believes that this adjustment for non-cash interest expense
        provides investors with a basis to evaluate the company's performance,
        including compared with the performance of other companies, without
        non-cash interest expense.
    --  Restructuring expense. The company incurs restructuring expenses related
        to reorganization plans aimed towards realigning resources consistent
        with the company's global strategy and improving its overall operating
        efficiency and cost structure.  Restructuring charges are excluded from
        non-GAAP financial measures because they are not considered core
        operating activities and such costs have historically occurred
        infrequently. Although the company has engaged in restructuring
        activities in the past, each has been a discrete event based on a unique
        set of business objectives. As such, management believes that it is
        appropriate to exclude restructuring charges from the company's non-GAAP
        financial measures as they are not reflective of ongoing operating
        results or contribute to a meaningful evaluation of a company's past
        operating performance.
    --  IPO-related costs. Costs incurred related to the IPO of 8point3 included
        legal, accounting, advisory, valuation, and other expenses, as well as
        modifications to or terminations of certain existing financing
        structures in preparation for the sale to 8point3.  As these costs are
        non-recurring in nature, excluding this data provides investors with a
        basis to evaluate the company's performance, including compared with the
        performance of other companies, without similar impacts.
    --  Other. The company combines amounts previously disclosed under separate
        captions into "Other" when amounts do not have a significant impact on
        the presented fiscal periods. Management believes that these adjustments
        provide investors with a basis to evaluate the company's performance,
        including compared with the performance of other companies, without
        similar impacts.
    --  Tax effect. This amount is used to present each of the adjustments
        described above on an after-tax basis in connection with the
        presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted
        share. The company's non-GAAP tax amount is based on estimated cash tax
        expense and reserves. The company forecasts its annual cash tax
        liability and allocates the tax to each quarter in a manner generally
        consistent with its GAAP methodology. This approach is designed to
        enhance investors' ability to understand the impact of the company's tax
        expense on its current operations, provide improved modeling accuracy,
        and substantially reduce fluctuations caused by GAAP to non-GAAP
        adjustments, which may not reflect actual cash tax expense.
    --  Adjusted EBITDA adjustments. When calculating Adjusted EBITDA, in
        addition to adjustments described above, the company excludes the impact
        during the period of the following items:
        --  Cash interest expense, net of interest income
        --  Provision for (benefit from) income taxes
        --  Depreciation

Management presents this non-GAAP financial measure to enable investors to evaluate the company's performance, including compared with the performance of other companies.

    (1)In accordance with the if-converted method, net income (loss) available to common stockholders excludes interest expense related to the 0.75%, 0.875%, and 4.0% debentures if the debentures
     are considered converted in the calculation of net income (loss) per diluted share.  If the conversion option for a debenture is not in the money for the relevant period, the potential
     conversion of the debenture under the if-converted method is excluded from the calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share.
