FSLR · PEAD ↑ 52

First Solar reported Q1 2026 results on 2026-04-23, posting EPS of $0.00 against a consensus of $4.40 — a miss of 100% versus expectations; year-over-year comparison is not available in the current data feed.

Print-day reaction was +3.96% from the prior close, carrying FSLR from $188.71 to $196.19 despite the headline EPS shortfall — the market appeared to focus on forward drivers rather than the reported figure. The overnight gap to the T+1 open added a further +0.54%, signalling no meaningful after-hours fade. Over the subsequent two trading sessions the price drifted an additional +1.08%, a modest continuation that held most of the initial gain. Cumulative abnormal return of +3.74% versus SPY.US clears the +3% PEAD long threshold; the documented drift pattern supports a long read through 2026-07-21.
