“Solar Alliance’s first quarter results are a positive indication of the progress the Company has been making despite challenging market conditions,” said CEO Myke Clark. “Generally, the first quarter generates lower revenues as installations are at their lowest point during winter months. Installations typically increase during spring, summer and fall and we are optimistic about the prospects for the rest of 2020. Our team has continued to work during the current economic downturn and we are well-positioned to take advantage of increased sales as the U.S. emerges from the current situation.”
