NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the related interim information contained within the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information and quarterly reports on the Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and the notes required for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in STR Holdings, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 2015. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements, and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of future results.

The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

On January 30, 2015, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation in order to effect a one-for-three reverse split of its common stock and its common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on a split-adjusted basis on February 2, 2015. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. As a result of the reverse stock split, the number of issued and outstanding shares of its common stock was reduced to 18,074,291 and 18,073,051, respectively, at December 31, 2014. The change in the number of shares resulting from the reverse stock split has been applied retroactively to all shares and per share amounts presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates. Certain prior periods’ disclosures have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
