SUNPOWER’S ALLEGED MISCONDUCT

SunPower provides solar energy solutions, including sales to its third-party dealer network and resellers, storage solutions, cash and loan sales, and long-term leases directly to end customers, and sells turn-key engineering, procurement, and construction services, as well as energy under power purchase agreements.

On January 21, 2022, SunPower issued a press release revealing that the company had “identified a cracking issue that developed over time in certain factory-installed connectors within third-party commercial equipment supplied to SunPower.” As a result, SunPower reported that it “expects approximately $27 million of supplier-quality related charges in fourth quarter 2021 and approximately $4 million in the first quarter of 2022″ to replace the faulty connectors.

Following this news, SunPower’s stock fell $3.22, or 16.9%, to close at $15.80 on January 21, 2022.

WHAT CAN I DO?

SunPower investors may, no later than April 18, 2022 seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class through Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP or other counsel, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP encourages SunPower investors who have suffered significant losses to contact the firm directly to acquire more information.

WHO CAN BE A LEAD PLAINTIFF?
A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision of whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff.
