1. TOYO acquires VSUN brand to consolidate operations and enhance shareholder value. 2. VSUN has delivered over 8 GW of solar modules to the U.S. market since 2018. 3. The acquisition will accelerate TOYO's U.S. market expansion and increase revenue. 4. VSUN's brand recognition boosts TOYO's credibility and customer trust in solar development. 5.
