Shoals provides electrical balance of system ("EBOS") products for solar power generation, storage, and utilization.
The action alleges that during the Class Period, Shoals failed to disclose materially adverse facts regarding the Company's operations, including that: (i) it was aware of exposed copper conduit, or "shrinkback," in EBOS wire harnesses in its solar fields and of the resulting defects; and (ii) it would have to incur heavy costs to remediate the issue.
On November 7, 2023, after the market closed, the Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2023 and held an accompanying earnings call in which Defendants revealed shrinkback was affecting 30% of wire harnesses installed between 2020 and 2022. The Company also reported that it was taking a $50.2 million charge for warranty expense because of the shrinkback issue. On this news, the Company's stock price fell $1.63 per share, or 10.04%, from $16.23 per share on November 7, 2023, to close at $14.60 per share on November 8, 2023, on extremely heavy trading volume, losing over $277 million in market capitalization.
Notably, on October 31, 2023, Shoals sued one its suppliers, Prysmian, and its complaint detailed Shoals' knowledge, dating back to March 2022, that Prysmian wire had unacceptable amounts of insulation shrinkback.
