Second Quarter 2019 Highlights<br />

2019 like many other years has been a challenging one, and<br />

JinkoSolar is keeping a very close eye on market developments.<br />

Competition remains intense with many industry peers acting<br />

aggressively in the market. JinkoSolar, however, remains in a strong<br />

position. In the first six months, the company has achieved two<br />

record breaking quarters with 6 gigawatts (GW) of module<br />

deliveries and a doubling of mono module shipments compared to<br />

last year.<br />

Recently, JinkoSolar announced its financial results for Q2 2019.<br />

Total solar module shipments were 3.386 GW, a year-over-year<br />

increase of 21.2% and a sequential increase of 11.5%.<br />

By the end of 2019, in-house annual silicon wafer, solar cell, and<br />

solar module production capacity will reach 15.0 GW, 10.5 GW, and<br />

16.0 GW, respectively, including 11.5 GW of mono wafer capacity,<br />

9.7 GW of PERC cell capacity, and 800 MW of N-type cell capacity.<br />

Leshan, the company’s new 5.0 GW mono wafer production<br />

capacity is expected to begin production in Q3 2019 and reach full<br />

capacity by Q4 2019. A second 5.0 GW phase will result in 16.5 GW<br />

of mono wafer capacity by first half of 2020.<br />

Third Quarter and Full Year 2019 Guidance<br />

For Q3 2019, the Company expects total solar module shipments to be in the range of 3.2 GW to 3.5 GW. Total revenue<br />

for the third quarter is expected to be in the range of US $980 million to US $1.07 billion. Gross margin for the third<br />

quarter is expected to be between 18% and 20% with good order visibility in the second half. For the full year 2019, the<br />

Company estimates total solar module shipments to be in the range of 14.0 GW to 15.0 GW.<br />

Key Achievements<br />

The Company has accelerated the transition of its product portfolio toward high efficiency mono, expecting to reach<br />

70% mono in 2019. This transition, including 16.5 GW of mono wafer capacity by Q2 2020, will strengthen the<br />

Company’s vertical integration and optimize the cost structure.<br />

The Company is matching the market with new products that customers demand. This is evident considering over 7<br />

GW of pre-orders of Cheetah and Swan modules in the past 12 months. The next generation of module technology is<br />

on its way with pilot production and certification process ongoing. The number of customers has grown steadily with a<br />

cumulative 3600+ worldwide by Q2 2019.<br />

2016 2017 2018 2019 Q2


JinkoSolar has been named a BNEF Tier 1 Solar Module Manufacturer<br />

for 8 consecutive years, which is one of the longest runs of any<br />

manufacturer. The Company has also been rated a Top Performer in<br />

the PVEL / DNV GL PV Module Reliability Scorecard five consecutive<br />

times.<br />

increase in overseas sales. In the United<br />

States, it has clearly defended its top<br />

position and remained the supplier of<br />

choice due to strong and repeated<br />

execution. In Japan, it recorded the best<br />

year in its history, ranking as the number 1<br />

seller for the first time. In Europe, thanks to<br />

the phase out of the MIP, Europe once<br />

again became a strong JinkoSolar sales<br />

region. In Australia, <strong>Jinkosolar</strong> secured its<br />

position as the best-selling premium brand<br />

in 2018. In India, ROA, and MEMA, where<br />

low cost poly remains most prevalent,<br />

JinkoSolar was one of the few premium<br />

mono manufacturers to succeed, growing<br />

its market share to 30%. In Latin America, it<br />

is the first brand to sell more than 5 GW of<br />

modules cumulatively.<br />

Looking back, JinkoSolar continues to<br />

grow rapidly, with CAGRs consistently<br />

higher than industry rates. In 2018,<br />

JinkoSolar delivered 11.4 GW to 2,828<br />

customers, an increase of 16.0% from<br />

9.8 GW for the year 2017. Our global<br />

leading market share reached 12.8%.<br />

The Company was able to accomplish<br />

all this due to a timely transition to<br />

premium mono products and major<br />

investments in both Chinese and<br />

overseas production.<br />

JinkoSolar generated revenue of<br />

US$3.64 billion in module sales in<br />

2018, and achieved gross margin of<br />

14.0% compared with 11.3% for the<br />

year 2017 and income from operations<br />

almost doubled that of 2017. Net<br />

income attributed to the Company's<br />

ordinary shareholders was three times<br />

that of 2017. In China, it still grew very<br />

quickly despite the slowdown caused<br />

by the 531 policy change. However,<br />

one major reason for the Company’s<br />

success, even in the face of troubles in<br />

the China mar ket, was a marked<br />

<br />

market share<br />

The rollout of the Cheetah family of<br />

products in 2018 was one of the most<br />

important events of the year, as it set the<br />

stage for future sales. In the first 12 months<br />

of market launch, the Company sold more<br />

than 5.5 GW, a new benchmark for new<br />

modules in the industry.


he Swan bifacial series is similarly stimulating<br />

additional interest. It is the first and only bifacial<br />

module using a transparent backsheet. It embodies a<br />

combination of the most recent groundbreaking<br />

technologies: Cheetah half cut cells, bifacial generation,<br />

and DuPont® TedlarTM PVF transparent backsheets.<br />

With a maximum output of 415 watts plus 5-25% extra<br />

power generated from the rear side (depending on<br />

ground reflection), and 25% less weight compared to<br />

conventional bifacial, Swan is a clear winner.<br />

One of the major focuses in 2018 was on investment in<br />

the expansion of new production facilities, including in<br />

Malaysia and the United States. The Company now has<br />

seven plants in three countries. It has expanded its<br />

capacity and upgraded process technologies in Penang<br />

with capacity of 3.0 GW for solar cells and 2.5 GW for<br />

solar modules, as of Q4 2018 , and commenced<br />

module production in Florida in November 2018. The<br />

decision to manufacture in the U.S. is based on a few<br />

factors, including getting more established in the<br />

market, shorter delivery times, and more flexibility.<br />

Locating this factory in Florida also makes JinkoSolar<br />

more independent of currency and policy fluctuations.<br />

Today, with fully automatic, advanced manufacturing in<br />

Shangrao’s F5 workshop and Jacksonville, Florida,<br />

JinkoSolar is the first solar module producer to start<br />

smart factory production at a GW scale. These steps<br />

strengthen JinkoSolar’s global production network<br />

capabilities.<br />
