PRESS RELEASE
Exhibit 99.1
Premier Holding Acquires Majority Stake
in The Power Company USA, LLC
TUSTIN, CA --
(Marketwire) -- 02/27/13 -- Today, Premier Holding Corporation (OTCQB:PRHL)
announces it has entered an agreement to purchase 80 percent of The Power Company USA, LLC, based in Chicago, Illinois. The Power
Company ("TPC") was formed in 2011 to participate in the sale of deregulated energy, primarily electricity and natural
gas, to businesses and residential users. More information on TPC can be found at http://thepowercompany.com/
PRHL's acquisition of 80 percent of TPC
for a combination of cash and securities will increase PRHL's capability to offer energy efficiency products and services to Fortune
500 brands, commercial middle-market companies, developers and management companies of large-scale residential developments.
TPC's business model capitalizes on the
deregulation of energy provided by the National Energy Policy Act of 1992 (NEPA 1992), and over the last two years, the principles
at TPC designed a proprietary computer model and system whereby commercial and residential clients can chose from numerous power
suppliers to garner the lowest rates and/or structured programs that best suit their needs. With this acquisition, once TPC has
reduced or stabilized the cost of power, the client is referred to E3 - Energy Efficiency Experts, another subsidiary of Premier,
which then focuses on offering these and other clients its vast array of green products and clean tech solutions that reduce power
consumption.
TPC's business has grown significantly
over a short period of time. In fact, in a few short months, since signing the LOI, TPC has acquired an additional 3,000 customers,
now totaling over 14,000 customers in just the 12 states it currently services. As deregulation expands to the remaining states
prior to 2020, TPC will be well-positioned to expand its client base with its best-of-breed internal systems and client offerings.
By acquiring a major stake in TPC, Premier
receives additional benefits in the form of tremendous marketing resources, an integrated platform for reaching clients with numerous
products and services, key personnel, and added revenue and assets. Currently, the revenue for 2013 is expected to be in excess
of $3,000,000, with current receivables exceeding $1,000,000 and contracts with over 14,000 customers representing assets estimated
to be valued from $6,000,000 to $10,000,000.
"The synergy and efficiencies created
by this agreement substantially accelerate the sales growth potential of PRHL", said Randall Letcavage, president and CEO
of PRHL. He continued, "Capturing a client with attractive power rates is a seamless introduction for our energy efficiency
team (E3 - Energy Efficiency Experts) to implement further energy savings to an already satisfied customer. This is a significant
step in our overall strategy to be "everything energy" to our clients".
The acquisition today represents 80 percent
of TPC stock, with the remaining 20 percent scheduled to be acquired within the next 120 days.
PRHL will provide additional details, including
the purchase agreement in a current report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within 4 business days.
