JIASHAN, China, August 24, 2012 – ReneSola Ltd (“ReneSola” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SOL), a leading global manufacturer of solar modules and solar wafers, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.

 

Second Quarter 2012 Financial and Operating Highlights

 

·Total solar wafer and module shipments in Q2 2012 were 503.7 megawatts (“MW”), exceeding Company guidance and representing an increase of 8.1% from 466.0 MW in Q1 2012.

 

·Q2 2012 net revenues were US$233.0 million, exceeding Company guidance and representing an increase of 10.2% from US$211.5 million in Q1 2012.

 

·Q2 2012 gross profit was US$1.3 million with a gross margin of 0.6%, compared to a gross loss of US$8.0 million with a gross margin of negative 3.8% in Q1 2012.

 

·Q2 2012 operating loss was US$34.6 million with an operating margin of negative 14.9%, compared to an operating loss of US$37.8 million with an operating margin of negative 17.9% in Q1 2012.

 

·Q2 2012 net loss was US$34.8 million, representing basic and diluted loss per share of US$0.20, and basic and diluted loss per American depositary share (“ADS”) of US$0.40.

 

·Cash and cash equivalents plus restricted cash were $394.2 million as of the end of Q2 2012, compared to US$388.3 million as of the end of Q1 2012.

 

“Despite what remained a challenging macro-environment, with lower average selling prices and lingering uncertainty surrounding the solar market, we continued to execute on our overarching strategy in the second quarter of 2012 to grow our module business, lower costs and develop superior technology,” said Mr. Xianshou Li, ReneSola’s chief executive officer. “We achieved record module shipments in the second quarter, up 76% quarter over quarter and 146% year over year, which is reflected in the number of employees we have added this year, primarily in the area of modules. On top of that, our sales and marketing efforts have enhanced our brand awareness among top solar companies, particularly with respect to our high-efficiency Virtus modules, which utilize our proprietary Virtus wafers. We continue to operate at 100% capacity and have built strong relationships with numerous customers that we are confident will continue to grow.”

 

Mr. Li continued, “While we have invested further in our module business, we still consider wafer manufacturing to be our core competitive strength, as it represents the key stage in determining module efficiency. We continued to invest in R&D in the second quarter to improve our product efficiencies and manufacturing processes, which will help lower our costs. In the second quarter, manufacturing costs decreased between 10% and 15% across each of our key products: modules, wafers and polysilicon. Additionally, our R&D investments have led to horizontal developments, such as microinverters, which we expect will provide us with additional opportunities for growth. We will continue to invest in R&D, while simultaneously expanding our sales and marketing reach, to overcome short-term challenges and to prepare for when market conditions improve.”

 

 
 

 

 

Second Quarter 2012 Results

 

Solar Wafer and Module Shipments

 

    2Q12   1Q12   2Q11   Q-o-Q%   Y-o-Y% 
Total Solar Wafer and Module Shipments (MW)   503.7    466.0    295.5    8.1%   70.5%
Solar Wafer Shipments (MW)   344.0    375.1    230.5    (8.3)%   49.3 %
Solar Module Shipments (MW)   159.7    90.9    65.0    75.7%   145.7%

 

The sequential increase in solar product shipments was mainly the result of strong demand of the Company’s solar modules from Europe, primarily Germany, and also the result of increased solar module sales to Australia.

 

Net Revenues

 

    2Q12    1Q12    2Q11    Q-o-Q%    Y-o-Y% 
Net Revenues (US$mln)  $233.0   $211.5   $249.3    10.2%   (6.5)%

 

Revenues in Q2 2012 increased quarter over quarter, with a decrease in the average selling prices (“ASPs”) of solar wafers and modules to US$0.31 per watt (“W”) and US$0.75/W, respectively, offset by a significant increase in solar module shipments.

 

Gross Profit (Loss)

 

    2Q12    1Q12    2Q11    Q-o-Q%    Y-o-Y% 
Gross Profit (Loss) (US$mln)  $1.3   $(8.0)  $45.9    -    (97.2)%
Gross Margin   0.6%   (3.8)%   18.4%   -    - 

 

The sequential increase in gross profit was primarily due to lower costs and increased shipments of the Company’s solar modules, which achieve higher margins relative to solar wafers, as well as a reversal in the Company’s product warranty reserve of US$7.8 million due to decreases in the ASPs for solar modules, a primary input into the estimated costs of the Company’s warranty policy. This was offset by an inventory write-down of US$15.5 million, primarily as a result of the decline in the price of polysilicon.

 

Operating Income (Loss)

 

    2Q12    1Q12    2Q11    Q-o-Q%    Y-o-Y% 
Operating Expenses (US$mln)  $35.9   $29.8   $22.9    20.8%   56.9%
Operating Income (Loss) (US$mln)  $(34.6)  $(37.8)  $23.0    -    - 
Operating Margin   (14.9)%   (17.9)%   9.2%   -    - 

 

The sequential increase in operating expenses was primarily due to (1) an increase in sales and marketing expenses, (2) an increase in research and development (“R&D”) expenses to improve the technology at the Company’s Sichuan polysilicon plant and (3) a significant increase in other general expenses as a result of a US$1.8 million provision representing the amount the Company expects to settle a lawsuit for, wherein a preliminary judgment was found against ReneSola, and fees related to trial production at the Company’s Sichuan steel wire plants. Operating expenses represented 15.4% of total revenues in Q2 2012, compared to 14.1% in Q1 2012.

 
 

 

 

 

Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)

 

The Company had a foreign exchange loss of US$4.5 million in Q2 2012, primarily due to the depreciation of the euro against the U.S. dollar and the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the renminbi (“RMB”). The Company also recognized a US$0.7 million loss on derivatives in Q2 2012, compared to a gain of US$0.04 million in Q1 2012.

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Holders of Ordinary Shares

 

    2Q12    1Q12    2Q11 
Net Income (Loss) (US$mln)  $(34.8)  $(40.2)  $1.8 
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share  $(0.20)  $(0.23)  $0.01 
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per ADS  $(0.40)  $(0.47)  $0.02 

 

Business Highlights

 

Research and Development (“R&D”)

 

ReneSola continues to invest in R&D to enhance the technology behind its products and manufacturing with the primary goals of lowering cost and improving efficiency.

 

In Q2 2012, the Company made progress in the development of its high-efficiency Virtus wafers and modules. ReneSola is now beginning production of its Virtus II modules, which will use the Company’s new Virtus A++ manufacturing technology, a unique technology developed by ReneSola. This technology does not require the use of a monocrystalline seed in the crucible to produce higher-efficiency solar wafers and results in multicrystalline ingots with a more uniform crystalline grain and distribution. This will allow for the production of larger numbers of high-efficiency solar wafers per ingot. ReneSola’s Virtus A++ manufacturing method will also benefit from lower costs of $0.01 per Watt-peak (“Wp”) to $0.02/Wp compared to the Company’s existing Virtus manufacturing method.

 

ReneSola is now manufacturing the Virtus A++ wafers in its newest facilities with a processing cost close to US$0.12/W, which the Company believes it can reduce to US$0.11/W by the end of 2012. This compares to the overall blended average solar wafer processing cost of US$0.17/W at the end of Q2 2012. The new Virtus A++ manufacturing method will produce solar wafers with solar cell efficiencies 0.5% higher than normal multicrystalline solar wafers, as well as solar wafers with a longer lifetime and lower dislocation. This in turn will allow for the production of Virtus II modules with power outputs of 250 W to 260 W based on 60 solar cells and the ability to reach 300 W to 310 W based on 72 solar cells.

 

In Q2 2012, the Company developed a new microinverter product, Replus, which can be used specifically with ReneSola solar modules in solar systems for power conversion. Production of the Replus microinverters will be outsourced to a third party. The Company also continued the development of low-oxygen concentration solar wafers and carbon composite materials in Q2 2012. The Company will continue to invest in R&D to further its advancements in technology and manufacturing.

 

Solar Module Business

 

ReneSola delivered 159.7 MW of solar modules in Q2 2012, of which 76.1 MW were Virtus modules. As previously guided, the Company increased its solar module production capacity to 1.2 gigawatts (“GW”) in Q2 2012 to meet growing demand. The Company continues to operate at maximum capacity due to strong sales generated by its new regional sales teams.

 

 
 

 

 

 

For Q2 2012, the Company’s total solar module selling cost was approximately US$0.66/W, a decrease from US$0.74/W in Q1 2012, which was partially due to the reversal in the Company’s product warranty reserve of US$7.8 million, which impacted the gross margin of the Company’s solar module business in Q2 2012 by approximately 6.9%. This resulted in a gross margin of approximately 12.2% for the Company’s solar module business in Q2 2012. The Company will continue to reduce its solar module manufacturing costs through improvements in its manufacturing methods as well as a reduction in material costs, and capitalize on the business’s higher margins relative to solar wafer production. The Company expects solar module processing cost to decrease to below US$0.33/W and total solar module selling cost to decrease to below US$0.63/W in Q3 2012.

 

Solar Wafer Business

 

The Company’s blended non-silicon solar wafer processing cost was US$0.17/W in Q2 2012, a decrease from US$0.19/W in Q1 2012, as a result of continued cost-reduction efforts, including the reduced use of electricity and raw materials, as well as lower-priced raw materials. The successful execution of the Company’s cost-reduction strategies should allow the Company to reach its yearly target of blended non-silicon solar wafer processing cost to US$0.15/W in 3Q 2012.

 

Polysilicon Update

 

In Q2 2012, ReneSola produced approximately 1,119.4 metric tons (“MT”) of polysilicon, an increase from approximately 900 MT in Q1 2012. At the end of Q2 2012, the Company had a polysilicon production capacity of 4,000 MT. The Company expects polysilicon production capacity to reach 10,000 MT by the end of 2012 through completion of Phase II of its polysilicon production plant.

 

ReneSola’s Sichuan polysilicon plant remains central to the Company’s long-term manufacturing and cost-reduction strategy. The Company’s internal polysilicon production cost decreased to approximately US$25.80 per kilogram (“kg”) by the end of Q2 2012, compared to approximately US$33/kg at the end of Q1 2012, as a result of improvements in the Company’s manufacturing techniques. The Company expects its polysilicon production cost to decrease to approximately US$24/kg by the end of Q3 2012 and US$22/kg by the end of 2012 once Phase II of the Company’s polysilicon production plant becomes operational. The Company expects Phase II to have a stand-alone polysilicon cost of US$18/kg.

 

Projects and Systems Business

 

The Company has expanded its projects portfolio with the successful completion of a 9.7 MW project in Bulgaria. The Bulgarian project is already connected to the grid and is generating an internal rate of return in excess of 25%. This is in addition to the Company’s existing 20 MW power facility in Qinghai, which was granted a RMB220 million loan, is connected to the grid and is generating a high internal rate of return. ReneSola has an additional 60 MW to 70 MW of projects in the pipeline for the remainder of the year. The Company will remain highly selective in its power projects and will continue to focus on due diligence in evaluating potential power project opportunities, and selectively pursue opportunities as they arise.

 

Company Headcount

 

As of the end of Q2 2012, ReneSola had 9,500 employees, compared to 9,075 employees as of the end of Q1 2012.
