JIASHAN, China, May 16, 2013 – ReneSola Ltd (“ReneSola” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SOL), a leading brand and technology provider of solar photovoltaic (“PV”) products, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
First Quarter 2013 Financial and Operating Highlights
· | Total solar wafer and module shipments in Q1 2013 were 662.1 megawatts (“MW”), in line with the Company’s guidance and representing a decrease of 7.2% from 713.2 MW in Q4 2012. |
· | Q1 2013 net revenues were US$284.2 million, exceeding Company guidance and representing a decrease of 7.3% from US$306.5 million in Q4 2012. |
· | Q1 2013 gross loss was US$5.6 million with a gross margin of negative 2.0%, compared to a gross profit of US$10.3 million with a gross margin of 3.3% in Q4 2012. |
· | Q1 2013 operating loss was US$33.4 million with an operating margin of negative 11.8%, compared to an operating loss of US$23.8 million with an operating margin of negative 7.8% in Q4 2012. |
· | Q1 2013 net loss was US$39.0 million, representing basic and diluted loss per share of US$0.23 and basic and diluted loss per American depositary share (“ADS”) of US$0.45. |
· | Cash and cash equivalents plus restricted cash were $442.7 million as of the end of Q1 2013, an increase from US$268.1 million as of the end of Q4 2012. |

“Over the past year, we have worked hard to transform our company into a leading global solar brand and technology leader,” said Mr. Xianshou Li, ReneSola’s chief executive officer. “With vigorous sales and marketing efforts, we have expanded our module business in several key markets, including the United Kingdom, Germany, France, the United States, Australia, India and Japan. Additionally, we continue to push our R&D with downstream products like our AC module and small-scale storage system, and we plan to offer residential PV solutions soon. Although we are seeing the solar market stabilize, a persistent demand-supply imbalance, coupled with competitive pricing, continues to impact our business and the overall industry. Despite this challenging macro environment, we will continue to invest in technologies that help reduce cost and improve efficiency in order to grow our business and gain new global market share.”
First Quarter 2013 Results
Solar Wafer and Module Shipments
1Q13 | 4Q12 | 1Q12 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | |
Total Solar Wafer and Module Shipments (MW) | 662.1 | 713.2 | 466.0 | (7.2%) | 42.1% |
Wafer Shipments (MW) | 335.5 | 392.7 | 375.1 | (14.6%) | (10.6%) |
Module Shipments (MW) | 326.6 | 320.5 | 90.9 | 1.9% | 259.3% |
The sequential decrease in solar product shipments was mainly the result of a decrease in sales of the Company’s wafer business due to additional wafers being used to produce ReneSola-branded modules, partially offset by increased demand for the Company’s solar modules across a number of geographic regions and the increasing competitiveness of solar power as a viable power source.
Net Revenues
1Q13 | 4Q12 | 1Q12 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | |
Net Revenues (US$mln) | $284.2 | $306.5 | $211.5 | (7.3%) | 34.4% |
Revenues in Q1 2013 decreased quarter over quarter due to a decrease in the average selling prices ("ASPs") of solar wafers and modules from US$0.24 per watt (“W”) and US$0.63/W, respectively, to US$0.22/W and US$0.61/W, respectively, as well the decrease in wafer shipments.
Gross Profit (Loss)
1Q13 | 4Q12 | 1Q12 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | |
Gross Profit (Loss) (US$mln) | ($5.6) | $10.3 | ($8.0) | (154.4%) | - |
Gross Margin | (2.0%) | 3.3% | (3.8%) | - | - |
The decrease in gross profit was due to the significant decline in ASPs and the decrease in wafer shipments, as well as the temporary halt in production at the Company’s Sichuan polysilicon plant to upgrade its facilities and equipment.
Operating Loss
1Q13 | 4Q12 | 1Q12 | Q-o-Q% | Y-o-Y% | |
Operating Expenses (US$mln) | $27.8 | $34.0 | $29.8 | (18.2%) | (6.7%) |
Operating Loss (US$mln) | ($33.4) | ($23.8) | ($37.8) | (40.3%) | - |
Operating Margin | (11.8%) | (7.8%) | (17.9 %) | - | - |
The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a reduction in the Company’s research and development (“R&D”) expenses in Q1 2013.
Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)
The Company had a foreign exchange loss of US$3.0 million in Q1 2013, primarily due to the depreciation of the euro against the renminbi (“RMB”), compared to a gain of US$3.1 million in Q4 2012. The Company also recognized a US$3.9 million gain on foreign currency derivatives, compared to a gain of US$0.9 million in Q4 2012.
Net Loss Attributable to Holders of Ordinary Shares
1Q13 | 4Q12 | 1Q12 | |
Net Loss (US$mln) | ($39.0) | ($88.9) | ($40.2) |
Diluted Loss per Share | ($0.23) | ($0.51) | ($0.23) |
Diluted Loss per ADS | ($0.45) | ($1.03) | ($0.47) |
Business Highlights
Research and Development
ReneSola continued to invest in R&D in Q1 2013 to improve the technology behind its brand, products and manufacturing processes. With regard to solar wafers, the Company’s next generation Virtus A+++ wafer, with an average efficiency of 0.15% to 0.20% higher than that of Virtus A++, will begin mass production in Q2 2013.
With regard to solar modules, the Company’s 210 W monocrystalline and 260 W multicrystalline modules are now in full production. The Company’s full line of solar module products has achieved potential induced degradation (“PID”) free status, further substantiating their reliability. Recently, the Company’s solar modules have been accredited by TÜV NORD, a leading German industry-certification body, demonstrating that ReneSola products can withstand difficult desert-like and dusty conditions.
ReneSola is developing a proprietary, second-generation Micro Replus microinverter, which will reduce the cost to customers by 20% compared to the first generation model. ReneSola is also developing an AC module that combines a solar module with Micro Replus. At the same time, a specialized, small-scale storage research team has been established to develop a series of systems that would largely increase the efficiency of ReneSola’s products.
