REC Silicon reported cash balances of USD 173.0 million on June 30, 2022 compared to USD 204.0 million on March 31, 2022. The decrease in cash was primarily a result of operating cash outflows of USD 17.6 million and capital expenditures of USD 12.8 million.
“The recently passed Inflation Reduction Act is expected to drive large scale investments to develop a robust solar supply chain in the United States. REC Silicon’s US based manufacturing facilities are ideally positioned to ensure that the objectives of this landmark legislation are realized. In addition, the passage of this legislation underpins REC Silicon’s decision to restart 100 percent of our FBR production. Efforts are well underway to restart our Moses Lake facility and we plan to achieve first production during Q4 2023.” said James A. May II, CEO.
