First Solar (FSLR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
First Solar's investments in research and development are expected to enhance module efficiency and reduce costs, positioning the company for long-term growth, particularly with increasing demand for data center power. The company reported Q4 revenues of $1.5 billion, aligning with market expectations and showing potential for an uplift in average selling prices due to favorable technical advancements in its backlog of 37.1 GW. Furthermore, First Solar's competitive edge is reinforced by its unique manufacturing footprint in various countries and a vertically integrated model, which supports strong visibility into future earnings amidst a favorable regulatory environment and growing market demand.
Bears say
First Solar faces a negative outlook primarily due to weaker-than-expected margins and profitability results for Q4, as well as disappointing guidance for 2025, which is projected to miss prior consensus and market expectations for earnings per share (EPS). Additionally, the company is encountering substantial downside risks, including heightened competition, regulatory uncertainty, and potential supply chain disruptions, all contributing to a decline in operational margins and profitability. Furthermore, the possibility of lower-than-expected global demand for solar modules could lead to unfavorable average selling prices (ASPs) and exacerbate an oversupply condition in the market.
