SunPower (NASDAQ:SPWR) stock is falling on Tuesday after the solar power company notified investors of a delisting notice from the Nasdaq Exchange.

Shares of SPWR stock are facing delisting due to the company’s bankruptcy filing last week. On top of that, the company’s late financial filing is another reason for the delisting notice.

SunPower won’t be appealing this decision and its shares will be delisted from the Nasdaq Exchange on Aug. 16, 2024. The company notes that this will result in its shares moving to the Pink Open Market operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc.

What This Means for SPWR Stock

With this change, investors won’t be able to trade shares of SPWR stock as easily. The move to the OTC Market also reduces the company’s exposure and could make it more difficult for it to obtain funding.

However, that’s unlikely to be a problem for SunPower. The company is already planning to wind down operations with its bankruptcy. It has also lined up a buyer for its assets. All of this points toward the end of the company and justifies the delisting of SPWR stock.

SPWR stock is down 10.1% as of Tuesday morning. Traders will also note the stock was down 95.9% year-to-date when markets closed on Monday.
