“While we delivered record shipments in the third quarter, declining selling prices and the substantial supply-demand imbalance continued to have a large impact on our margins,” said Mr. Xianshou Li, ReneSola’s chief executive officer. “Nevertheless, we continued to drive down costs and improve efficiency through strong management and a dedicated R&D team. Over the year, we’ve leveraged our core competitive strength in wafer manufacturing and technology to develop highly efficient solar modules that have attracted customers in a number of markets, most notably Europe and Australia, and also the United States and China. Despite the difficult market conditions impacting the industry, we are confident in our ability to lower costs and develop superior technology that will grow our solar module business in both the near and long term.”
Third Quarter 2012 Results
Solar Wafer and Module Shipments
| 3Q12 | 2Q12 | 3Q11 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | ||||||||||||||||
| Total Solar Wafer and Module Shipments (MW) | 532.8 | 503.7 | 328.5 | 5.8 | % | 62.2 | % | |||||||||||||
| Solar Wafer Shipments (MW) | 387.5 | 344.0 | 294.8 | 12.6 | % | 31.4 | % | |||||||||||||
| Solar Module Shipments (MW) | 145.3 | 159.7 | 33.7 | (9.0 | )% | 331.2 | % | |||||||||||||
The sequential increase in solar product shipments was mainly the result of an increase in the demand of the Company’s high-efficiency solar wafers from Asia-Pacific customers.
Net Revenues
| 3Q12 | 2Q12 | 3Q11 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | ||||||||||||||||
| Net Revenues (US$mln) | $ | 218.2 | $ | 233.0 | $ | 189.1 | (6.4 | )% | 15.4 | % | ||||||||||
Revenues in Q3 2012 decreased quarter over quarter due to a decrease in the average selling prices (“ASPs”) of solar wafers and modules to US$0.28 per watt (“W”) and US$0.67/W, respectively.
Gross Profit (Loss)
| 3Q12 | 2Q12 | 3Q11 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | ||||||||||||||||
| Gross Profit (Loss) (US$mln) | $ | (39.2 | ) | $ | 1.3 | $ | (7.7 | ) | - | - | ||||||||||
| Gross Margin | (18.0 | )% | 0.6 | % | (4.0 | )% | - | - | ||||||||||||
The sequential decrease in gross profit was primarily due to an inventory write-down of US$31.6 million to reflect the decline in the price of solar wafers and polysilicon.
Operating Income (Loss)
| 3Q12 | 2Q12 | 3Q11 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | ||||||||||||||||
| Operating Expenses (US$mln) | $ | 43.6 | $ | 35.9 | $ | 26.8 | 21.2 | % | 62.3 | % | ||||||||||

| Operating Margin | (38.0 | )% | (14.9 | )% | (18.2 | )% | - | - | ||||||||||||
The sequential increase in operating expenses was primarily due to (1) an increase in sales and marketing expenses in conjunction with the Company’s expansion of its business outside of China, (2) an increase in general and administrative expenses as a result of a US$1.8 million bad debt provision for difficulty collecting receivables, (3) an impairment loss on long-lived assets of US$6.1 million related to the discontinuation of 200 MW of monocrystalline wafer furnace production capacity and (4) a goodwill impairment charge of US$5.8 million related to the Company’s solar cell and module business acquired in 2009, offset by a decrease of US$5.6 million in research and development (“R&D”) expenses in order to save costs. Operating expenses represented 20.0% of total revenues in Q3 2012, compared to 15.4% in Q2 2012.
Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)
The Company had a foreign exchange net gain of US$2.1 million in Q3 2012, primarily due to the appreciation of the euro against the U.S. dollar and the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the renminbi (“RMB”). The Company also recognized a US$0.3 million loss on derivatives in Q3 2012, compared to a loss of US$0.7 million in Q2 2012.

Business Highlights
Research and Development
ReneSola continued to invest in R&D to enhance the technology behind its products and manufacturing with the primary goals of lowering cost and improving efficiency. The Company’s Virtus II products are currently in full production, with average efficiencies of 15.7%. A 60-cell Virtus II module produces an average of 255 W. Additionally, the Company’s microinverter, Micro Replus, successfully completed its initial testing phase in the United States, Australia and Europe. ReneSola has also began research on small-scale storage systems, with the aim of providing these products to the market by the middle of next year, as well as began R&D on developing its own AC-OC optimizer, with the aim of providing this product to the market by the end of next year.
Solar Module Business
ReneSola delivered 145.3 MW of solar modules, of which 101.7 MW were Virtus modules, in Q3 2012, down slightly quarter over quarter due to seasonality. For Q3 2012, the Company’s total solar module selling cost was approximately US$0.65/W, slightly lower compared to Q2 2012. Gross margin for the Company’s solar module business was approximately 1.0% in Q3 2012. The Company expects to 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 module business’s higher margins relative to solar wafer production. In Q4 2012, the Company expects its total solar module production cost to decrease to approximately US$0.57/W and its shipments to increase to a range of 250 MW to 270 MW.
Solar Wafer Business
ReneSola reached its year-end blended non-silicon solar wafer processing cost target of US$0.15/W in Q3 2012, a decrease from US$0.17/W in Q2 2012 as a result of the Company’s continued cost-reduction efforts. As announced last quarter, the Company has began manufacturing Virtus A++ wafers, which use new proprietary manufacturing technology that allows the Company to produce a larger number of high-efficiency solar wafers per ingot, in its newest facilities. The Company expects non-silicon solar wafer processing cost in these new facilities to reach US$0.11/W by the end of 2012. Overall, the Company expects to further drive down its blended non-silicon solar wafer processing cost to US$0.12/W by the end of 2012.
Polysilicon Production
In Q3 2012, ReneSola produced approximately 1,175.7 metric tons (“MT”) of polysilicon, an increase from approximately 1,119.4 MT in Q2 2012. At the end of Q3 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 Q1 2013 through the completion of Phase II of its polysilicon production plant. On November 1, 2012, the Company temporarily halted polysilicon production to upgrade its facilities and equipment, as well as integrate Phase II with Phase I. Trial production for Phase II is expected to begin in January 2013.
ReneSola’s internal polysilicon production cost decreased to approximately US$23.57 per kilogram (“kg”) at the end of Q3 2012, compared to approximately US$25.80/kg at the end of Q2 2012, as a result of improvements in the Company’s manufacturing techniques. The Company expects its polysilicon production facilities to have a polysilicon production cost below US$18/kg by the end of Q1 2013.
Projects and Systems Business
To date, ReneSola has 40 MW of projects under construction in China and 6 MW of projects under construction in Romania. The Company will selectively evaluate and engage in solar project opportunities as they arise. China Development Bank has, in the past, indicated its support for the Company’s additional solar power projects.
