According to one interim director, a plant manager in China told them that QSolar’s module inventory and manufacturing equipment had been seized by the landlord of the plant. The plant manager also confirmed that his employment had been terminated.

The company’s website has also been removed.

The statement by the interim board concluded: “In light of its findings and the absence of any working capital in the Corporation, the Board intends to resign, en masse, on June 18, 2015.”
