Photovoltaic products company STR Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: STRI) said Monday its third-quarter profit fell 11 percent as an oversupply of solar modules cut demand and offset the benefit of lower expenses, according to Associated Press.
The company, which last week completed its initial public offering of common stock, said net income for the three months ended Sept. 30 slipped to $7.9 million, or 21 cents per share, compared with $8.9 million, or 24 cents, in the year-earlier period, said the company, which closed its initial public offering last week.
