First Solar Announces Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

First Solar, Inc. reported its third quarter 2024 financial results on October 29, 2024. The company reported net sales of $0.9 billion, a decrease of $0.1 billion from the prior quarter, primarily due to a decrease in the volume of MW sold and a product warranty reserve charge. Net income per diluted share was $2.91, impacted by the $50 million product warranty reserve charge. The company updated its 2024 guidance, reflecting a revised outlook for net sales, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, and earnings per diluted share. First Solar expects to hold a conference call to discuss these results further.
