Introductory Note
Update CBP Detentions
As previously reported, in July 2024, Maxeon Solar Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MAXN) (the “Company”) experienced its first-ever detentions by US Customs & Border Protection (“CBP”) of modules imported from Mexico into the U.S. These detentions are intended to review whether Maxeon’s products comply with anti-forced labor provisions as set out in the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (“UFLPA”), signed into law on December 23, 2021. Since then, all of Maxeon’s imports of solar modules into the U.S. have been detained by CBP. These detentions involved both Performance line panels manufactured in the Company’s Mexicali factory for utility scale customers as well as IBC panels manufactured in the Company’s Ensenada factory for DG customers. CBP has explained that these are routine detentions not related to any concerns specific to Maxeon.
The Company has received notification from CBP that while CBP made no findings of forced labor in violation of UFLPA, it had determined to exclude the Company’s Performance line and IBC modules from import due to certain documentary deficiencies. On September 17, 2024, CBP provided the Company with the details of these documentary deficiencies and the Company is in the process of gathering this information. The Company intends to submit a protest pursuant to Sections 514 & 514(a), Tariff Act of 1930 as amended, 19 CFR Part 174 et. seq. once the documentation is compiled, and CBP is expected to review and provide its determination within 30 days of the Company’s submission.
