First Solar's Reliance On 45x Tax Credit Triggers Risks As Backlog Tapers
FSLR
Published: February 27, 2026 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Their gross margins are heavily reliant on Section 45x tax credits, with the staged phase out after 2029 triggering significant gross margin compression risks. The silver lining to FSLR's investment thesis will be the strong free cash flow generation and the richer balance sheet, despite the ongoing capex investments.

FSLR
Published: February 25, 2026 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

First Solar, Inc. delivered disappointing Q4 results and issued 2026 guidance well below Street expectations, triggering a sharp selloff. 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $2.6–$2.8B lags consensus, with revenue projected to decline and headline multiples flattered by Section 45X tax credits.
