Potential short-term decline of 5‑10% as investors reassess growth outlook.
Guidance cuts are material, especially with a $600M revenue reduction and a swing to an EBITDA loss, prompting immediate sell pressure.
Market effects
Energy storage sector may face broader scrutiny on supply chain constraints.
U.S. renewable energy investors could see heightened risk perception.
Potential ripple effects on global clean‑energy financing and related stocks.
