The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. Closes Acquisition of iSun Energy LLC, Changes Name to iSun, Inc. and Ticker Symbol to ISUN
January 21 2021 - 8:29AM
Business Wire
iSun, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISUN) ( “iSun”), formerly The Peck Company
Holdings, Inc. (“Peck”), a leading commercial solar engineering,
procurement and construction (“EPC”) company and iSun Energy LLC
(“iSun”), a provider of innovative solar power, electric mobility
and smart city solutions for government, commercial, retail,
academic and data-center projects, today announced that they have
closed on the acquisition of iSun Energy LLC, announced on January
5th, 2021.
Merger Rationale
iSun (formerly Peck) established a dominant position over the
past 50 years as a leading electrical and data contractor, as well
as the largest solar EPC (engineering, procurement and
construction) in Vermont, focused on high-quality commercial,
industrial and small-utility scale solar projects. It has
constructed over 200 megawatts of solar projects to date (enough to
power 38,000 homes). Despite COVID-related challenges last year,
there were no project cancellations. Peck has been executing a
disciplined growth plan since becoming a public company in June
2019, and an accretive merger & acquisition strategy has been a
top priority. Acquiring iSun and the iSun® Brand and its
innovations is consistent with the Company’s evolution toward
serving its customers as a full-service energy solutions provider.
Furthermore, adding higher margin products and energy services will
have a positive impact on typical solar EPC margins. Combining a
profitable EPC business for solar, electrical and data contracting
with award-winning products and platforms that are modular,
scalable and connected is a powerful combination that
differentiates the Company from other solar or EV (electric
vehicle) charging companies.
Highlights
- iSun now trades on Nasdaq as ISUN and replaces PECK
- iSun near term pipeline across New England, New York and other
locations to be announced shortly.
- Combined group backlog reaches USD $60M
- The iSun® Brand companies will continue to provide its trusted
solar, electrical, and data services to its commercial and
industrial customers
- The iSun® Brand offerings include the iSun Energy &
Mobility Hub, a solar canopy for EV charging, and the iSun Oasis
Smart Solar Bench will immediately begin to be offered by the
entire group to its current and new prospect base.
- Timely market expansion capitalizes on the Biden
administration’s plan to make major public investments in
renewables and electric mobility infrastructure, including in
500,000 electric vehicle charging stations.
- Industry experts anticipate 100 GWs of solar infrastructure
will be constructed over the next 5 years, representing 50%
growth.1
iSun® Brand Products
The flagship iSun Energy & Mobility Hub is the result
of 30 years of passion, dedication, and innovation through
sustainability. The iSun solar EV carport charging systems
incorporate solar panels to charge electric vehicles while
providing unparalleled software insights into data surrounding the
energy produced, consumed, air quality effects and other key
metrics. The iSun Oasis Smart Solar Bench is expected to be
an integral part in developing smart cities and campuses and has
the ability to charge any mobile device through integrated solar
panels that collect and store energy throughout the day. iSun’s
accompanying data platform allows for monitoring and analysis of
key metrics through built in IoT (Internet of Things) sensors. The
platform also affords both physical and digital advertising and
branding, for additional recurring revenue opportunities. iSun’s
Augmented Reality 3D software platform helps clients visualize
their projects before they are built, making it easy for our
clients to adopt sustainable solutions and to understand their
impact on sustainability.
Management Commentary
Jeffrey Peck, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer
of iSun, commented, “The acquisition of iSun Energy LLC and name
change of Peck to iSun, Inc., came to a swift closing due to great
coordination and aligned interests. Our teams are already
collaborating together on a number of new opportunities that have
become available to us since our announcements. We appreciate the
diligent approach to the process by Sass Peress and team, and
welcome them to the family. As our new Chief Innovation and
Experience Officer, Sass has been empowered to deliver innovative
solar energy, electric vehicle infrastructure, and smart city
technologies that we intend to incorporate into our basket of goods
shortly. The importance of sustainability is a growing metric for
governments, organizations and corporations around the world. In
order for a growing audience to learn more about the good we do,
the iSunOS platform will report on the total carbon reduced by our
combined solar ground mount, rooftop, carport and other clean
energy or mobility products. Sass will also contribute his
experience in Investor Relations, Marketing and Business
Development to our new growth opportunities. We welcome Sass to our
executive team and look forward to many years of partnership.”
Sass Peress, Founder of iSun Energy LLC, added, “Executing this
swift closing would not have happened without the tremendous work
by our combined teams. We are grateful for the opportunity to be a
part of such a great company and will focus ourselves on the
delivery of enhanced experiences for our customers, shareholders
and other stakeholders, so that the iSun® Brand continues its
leadership in sustainability. Having first coined the iSun brand in
1999, and now having it on the NASDAQ exchange as a ticker symbol,
is something I could have never dreamed of. We will now take the
brand and our company to heights that aim to engage, inspire and
elevate. Novel technologies in development, alone or in
partnership, will provide enhanced revenue opportunities, while the
existing business delivers great execution and contribution to
financial performance.”
iSun’s innovations were recognized this year by the Solar
Impulse Foundation of Bertrand Piccard as one the globe’s Top 1000

entities around the world, including various municipal, state and
federal agencies in the United States.
