Oct 30▲ UpEarningsDowngradeUpgrade9 articles

First Solar shares closed at $174.40, up 3.78% on volume of 2,975,323, even as the company reported third-quarter 2026 results and cut its full-year guidance, a high-impact bearish development. Analysts broadly lowered their forecasts following the earnings report, and several firms trimmed price targets, including Morgan Stanley to $307, RBC Capital to $232, Wells Fargo to $260, Evercore ISI to $189, and Needham to $236, while GLJ Research downgraded the stock to Hold with a $161 target and Bernstein reiterated Underperform with a $169 target. Despite the negative guidance revision and wave of target cuts, the stock rallied, suggesting investors may have already priced in weaker expectations or focused on the maintained positive ratings from several firms. The direction signal is mixed, with the bearish earnings news and downgrades offset by the strong price action.

Oct 29▲ UpEarningsDividendContract4 articles

First Solar shares closed at $176.89, up 0.51%, as investors weighed mixed earnings news against new capital-return and licensing announcements. The company cut its FY2026 sales outlook to $4.6B-$4.9B, below the $5.033B consensus, though it posted quarterly EPS of $5.30 that beat the $4.60 estimate even as revenue of $1.231B missed the $1.288B consensus. The board also approved up to $500 million in share repurchases and the company licensed perovskite technology patents to CubicPV, both bullish signals. Despite the reduced forward guidance, the buyback and earnings beat helped the stock finish modestly higher.

Oct 27▲ UpUpgrade2 articles

First Solar shares rose 2.57% to close at $175.82, trading between a low of $169.51 and a high of $177.75 on volume of about 1.68 million shares. The move followed Guggenheim reiterating its Buy rating and raising its price target to $299 from $282, signaling continued analyst confidence in the stock. The upgraded target sits well above today's close, suggesting the analyst sees meaningful upside ahead. The bullish analyst action appears to have supported the stock's gain on the day.

Oct 12▲ UpUpgrade2 articles

First Solar shares closed at $179.72, down 0.96% on the day, despite a bullish analyst action. Truist Securities upgraded the stock from Hold to Buy and raised its price target from $229 to $270. The upgrade and higher price target may support the stock in future sessions, though today's close was lower. The direction signal from the news is positive, suggesting potential upward momentum.
