One of the best companies in this sector. Produce the product that goes into solar panels. Made close to 30% net margin after taxes last quarter. Extremely well run. Because energy prices have come down, and no one can finance new projects demand for solar panels has dropped dramatically. Sold his holdings because of the risk for the next few quarters.

Key supplier to First Solar (FSLR-Q) for the thin-film version of the solar panel. Doesn't use sand, but cadmium telluride instead, which is rare and hard to come by. Have a virtual monopoly on this.

(A Top Pick Jan 31/08. Down 20.4%.) Supplies First Solar (FSLR-Q) with specialty metals. Still growing and have a very tight relationship with the fastest growing solar company in the world. Still a Buy.

Jan 13, 2009
Make something like 30% net margins after tax. Short term negative is that finance has shut down for solar panels. Demand for solar panels is down substantially for 3rd quarter. Company could be affected in the short-term. Outstanding company for the long-term.

Not wild about wind or solar but the one exception is this company. They make thin-fill solar that economically works without a lot of help from the government. Well-capitalized and have cash. If he had to pick one solar company it would be this.

Strategic position in the solar industry is pretty secure. Producing material that goes into thin film. First Solar (FSLR-Q) is their biggest customer at 55%-60% of revenues. Could be a takeover.

Supplies cadmium telluride cells to First Solar (FSLR-Q). Fist Solar uses an extremely thin film process with a dramatically smaller amount of silicon compared to more conventional ones. Offsetting that is their low efficiency of 10% to 12% compared to what Arise Technologies (APV-T) of 15%.

Solar cell silicon. Their primary customer is First Solar (FSLR-Q). With First Solar’s tremendous growth this company will continue to see a ramp up of its production. Has traded sideways and is probably a good point of entry. If Democrats get elected, the stock could easily double.

Refine rare metals into high purity. Extremely profitable today. Last quarter, the net margin after tax was 25%. Very important client to First Solar (FSLR-Q), which is the high-growth company in the solar business. Opening a 2nd plant in Germany.

This is one that he has struggled with because it is one of the best exposed companies for the solar industry but is a little bit expensive on an earnings basis. If you believe that the industry will grow at 30% or 50% per year for the next 10 or 20 years, which he does, this company will definitely prosper. Wouldn't make it an overweight holding.
