SunPower Corp. shares plunged 42% on Friday as Guggenheim Securities cut the solar equipment firm’s price target to zero and said the stock may soon be delisted.

“The company is entering a wind-down process that will likely end in the sale of the company’s remaining assets and the delisting of the equity,” Guggenheim analyst Joseph Osha wrote in a research note Friday, in which he cut the price target on the stock to zero from $1. He called it a “sad end for an industry pioneer.”
