Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On March 27, 2012, management and the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Solar Power, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that the Company should restate its financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as well as the interim financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010, September 30, 2010, March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011. Accordingly, on March 27, 2012, the Board of Directors concluded, based on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, that the Company’s previously issued financial statements included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for these periods should be restated and the related press releases, reports and shareholder communications describing the Company’s financial statements for these periods should no longer be relied upon.
Based on its review, management determined that the Company improperly recognized revenue at the date of the initial sale on a solar development project initiated in 2009 and then under the percentage of completion method for construction work for the new owner. The transaction should have been accounted for in accordance with accounting standards for sales of real estate and due to continuing involvement with the project after the transaction no sale should have been recognized. Instead the transaction should have been accounted for using the financing method.
The potential impact of this restatement on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for years 2010 and 2009 would be as follows (dollars in thousands):

Management of the Company and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors have discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K with Macias Gini & O’Connell LLP and Crowe Horwath LLP (formerly Perry Smith LLP), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively, and with KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2011.
This Report includes “forward looking statements” that involve uncertainties and risks. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from the Company’s expectations or any results expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Factors which could cause materially different results may include, among others, the risk that the final conclusion of the Audit Committee’s review could result in a determination that the effect of the issues under review are materially greater or lesser than the Company currently believes to be the case; the risk that the review could take longer than expected because of unanticipated issues; the risk that
