Westinghouse Solar’s stocks were de-listed from NASDAQ in September 2012 when the company also said the merger deal would be completed in the first quarter of 2013, over a year after the deal was announced.
The company said in a statement today that it had negotiated a brand and technology sub-licence with CBD Energy for the Australian market, though why that was required was not explained.
