Hoku Corporation: Nasdaq Non-Compliance Cured
Die untenstehende Meldung ist eine Original-Meldung des Unternehmens. Sie ist nicht von der ECOreporter.de-Redaktion bearbeitet. Die presserechtliche Verantwortlichkeit liegt bei dem meldenden Unternehmen.
Honululu - Hoku Corporation, a solar energy products and services company, announced today that it filed its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2011 (the "Form 10-Q") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), thereby regaining compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The notification of non-compliance that was received on February 23, 2012, no longer has any effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market.
As previously reported by the Company, the filing of the Form 10-Q was delayed because the Company was analyzing whether the recent declines in the market price for polysilicon had impacted the carrying value of its polysilicon plant and whether the carrying value was fairly stated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as of December 31, 2011. The Company concluded its analysis and determined that its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures should not reflect any impairment charge to its polysilicon plant.
Hoku also announced today that it has amended its polysilicon supply contract with Suntech Power Holdings Co., Ltd., the world's largest producer of silicon solar modules, to extend the delivery schedule, while modifying volume and price terms. "This amendment demonstrates Suntech's continuing confidence in Hoku's ability to supply high quality polysilicon for Suntech's solar modules," said Scott Paul, Hoku's CEO.
