First Solar’s chief supply chain officer sells $24,996 in stock

Michael Koralewski, Chief Supply Chain Officer at First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:FSLR), recently executed a series of stock transactions, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On March 7, Koralewski sold 188 shares of First Solar stock at a price of $132.96 per share, totaling $24,996. The transaction comes as First Solar maintains a strong financial position with a market capitalization of $14.3 billion and healthy fundamentals, including a robust current ratio of 2.45 and more cash than debt on its balance sheet.

In addition to the sale, Koralewski engaged in several transactions on March 6, involving stock vesting and tax withholding. He acquired 1,282 shares through the vesting of restricted stock units at no cost. However, 360 of these shares were withheld by the company to cover tax obligations, valued at $47,206 based on the stock price of $131.13 per share. According to InvestingPro analysis, First Solar appears undervalued at current levels, with analysts setting price targets significantly above the current trading price.

These transactions are part of routine financial management by company executives, reflecting both the vesting of stock awards and the handling of related tax liabilities. The company has demonstrated strong financial performance with a revenue growth of 26.75% in the last twelve months and maintains a favorable P/E ratio of 11.01.
