First Solar Inc. agreed to sell a facility in Mesa, Arizona, to an unidentified buyer at a loss of as much as $60 million against book value.
The company expects proceeds of more than $100 million from the sale, which will close this quarter, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing today from the Tempe, Arizona-based company. The site was intended to be a panel-production plant and was never commissioned.
