On Wednesday, SunPower announced a restructuring plan aimed at reducing costs and improving its financial controls. The company plans to shut down certain business segments, including its SunPower Residential Installation locations and SunPower Direct sales. This move is expected to result in the layoff of approximately 1,000 employees.
The decision caused SunPower’s shares to drop by 16% in premarket trading. However, the company’s Principal Executive Officer, Tom Werner, stated that these steps are necessary to simplify the business structure and move away from areas where profitability has been unsustainable. The company anticipates incurring charges of approximately $28 million related to severance benefits, early contract terminations, and certain write-offs as a result of these changes.
Despite the challenges faced by the solar industry in recent years, SunPower remains committed to finding ways to improve its operations and maintain its position as a leading player in the field. By streamlining its operations and focusing on areas where it can generate consistent profits, the company is working towards a more efficient and sustainable business model for the future.
