#2  follow the company here

a quick look at the company financials indicate it is not anywhere near as iffy as Solyndra; the company has had 1B or more in sales for a number of years

however, it the sales are, in effect, heavily subsidized and furthermore, it's cost/watt is higher than the industry leader (Firstsolar).
