POWERSECURE EXTENDS STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

WAKE FOREST, N.C., December 19, 2012—PowerSecure International, Inc. (Nasdaq: POWR) today announced that its board of directors has authorized an extension of the company’s stock repurchase program for an additional $5 million of the company’s common stock through December 2014.

Repurchases of shares can be made from time to time in open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased will be determined in the discretion of the company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the company to repurchase any minimum number of shares.

The stock repurchase program may be suspended, discontinued, renewed or extended at the discretion of the board of directors. Any

repurchased shares will be cancelled and restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares, available for future issuance. The company expects to fund the repurchase program using the company’s cash on hand and working capital.

In November 2011, the company’s board of directors authorized an initial stock repurchase program of $5 million dollars for a period of up to 24 months. As of December 2012, the company had repurchased nearly all of the initially authorized $5 million of common stock at an average price of $5.64 per share.
