About the Lawsuit

First Solar and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On February 20, 2020, the Company disclosed that it was exploring the sale of its Project Development business, that it was experiencing challenges with regard to certain aspects of the overall cost per watt, and that it would no longer be disclosing a discrete cost per watt for its Series 6 units.

On this news, shares of First Solar declined, damaging shareholders.

The case is City of Pontiac General Employees Retirement System v. First Solar, Inc., No. 22-cv-00036.
