Sunnova Stock Hits All-Time Low on 'Going Concern' Warning
Sunnova Energy International has announced that it may not be able to continue as a "going concern" in a year due to financial difficulties, which have led to its shares losing nearly two-thirds of their value. The solar power company's declining demand for alternative energy products has resulted in a 13% decrease in solar energy system and product sales revenue for fiscal 2024. Sunnova has taken steps to address its financial condition, including mandating domestic content for dealers and raising prices.
