Investor Notice: Investigation into SUNPOWER, Corp. Announced by Former Attorney General of Louisiana and KSF Law Firm
NEW ORLEANS, Nov 17, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Company: Sunpower Corp (SPWRA)
Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., and the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC announces that it has commenced an investigation into SunPower, Corp. ("SunPower" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: SPWRA) to determine whether it has violated federal securities laws by issuing false and misleading statements to its shareholders.
On November 17, 2009, shares of SunPower lost approximately 20% of their value after the Company disclosed, late the prior day, that an internal investigation of accounting practices at the Company's Philippine operations revealed that it may have to restate results from 2008 and the first three quarters of 2009, due to misreporting and understating the cost of goods sold.
The disclosure has triggered a wave of mostly negative commentary from the Street, including a number of downgrades.
