发帖数: 3036 | 4 1. Gross margin declined to 21%. Huge write off.
2. (cost per watt reduced by 2 cents to 73c per watt. ) Is this a JOKE?
Leading chinese PV manufactures reduced module cost by at least 25%-30%
through last year. Soon we will see PV module cost lower than thin film cost
per watt. At the same time, PV module remains much higher effiency (16%-18%
) vs. thin film (12%-13% for FSLR)
3. diminishing CFO: $11 mm CF from operations vs. $203 mm in Q3.
I must say it's a very ugly ER. Would have shorted this stock if the stock
price hasn't been in toilet already. |

发帖数: 3036 | 5 Solar industry is already a commodity business. People only cares about:
1. Price
2. Warranty
3. Bank-ability (if it is easy to get financing)
Brand doesn't mean much here.
Just my 2c.
