BMO Capital analyst Ameet Thakkar reiterated an Outperform rating and $260.00 price target on First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR).

The analyst commented: "We would buy FSLR, especially on any FY 2025 guidance-related weakness. We see pressure to FY 2025 FSLR sales from poor Indian solar equipment market conditions that may crowd out Malaysian and Vietnam series 6 volumes and potential for additional project push outs. As a result we have reduced our 2025 revenue estimate to $5.1B (prior $5.48B; consensus $5.5 billion). That said, FSLR remains our favorite name in 2025. At the current price, the stock is discounting terminal ASP of $0.23/watt, and we see recent AD determination eventually pushing U.S. module prices to mid-$0.30/ watt. We estimate FSLR shares trading at 11.2x 2026E EBITDA without PTCs."
