Mr. Kangping Chen, JinkoSolar's Chief Executive Officer commented, "I am pleased to report a strong finish to the year with record high total module shipments and revenue. Total module shipments reached 1,709.9 MW during the quarter which resulted in total revenues of US$937.7 million, an increase of 104.4% over the same period in 2014. This translates into module shipments for the entire year of 4,511.6 MW, and total revenues of US$2.48 billion. Global demand remains strong, especially in key solar markets, which gives us good visibility for the entire year and leaves us very confident about our future prospects."
"Our downstream business remains a key focus of ours as we continue to work on building its long-term viability and sustainability. Electricity output during the fourth quarter of 2015 reached 154.4 GWh, down 34.0% sequentially while generating RMB136.3 million in revenue. We connected 161 MW of solar power projects to the grid during the fourth quarter which brings our total capacity of connected projects to 1,006.6 MW as of December 31, 2015. Aside from the effects of seasonality, power output was impacted by the curtailment of projects in China's western regions and strong rainfall in eastern regions. A number of events beyond our control such as delays in subsidy catalog update and a prolonged grid-connection process made us fall short of our connection target for the year but we are confident in our ability to rapidly make up for this shortfall this year. We are now accelerating the spin-off process to maximize shareholder value."
"The depreciation of the RMB over the past half year has caused considerable turmoil in the global markets. We have been increasing our hedge ratio to ensure that its impact on our business remains limited. Despite recent economic volatility, we remain positive on China's long-term development given that we just entered the first year of the new national five-year plan which is expected to further deepen structural supply-side reforms."
"Global demand for solar energy continues to grow steadily. We remain the market leader in China where growth and demand is expected to be strong and more balanced this year. With the extension of ITC, the biggest market uncertainty has been removed in the US which provides us with good visibility on market stability well into 2018. ASPs in major markets are expected to further stabilize during the first quarter of 2016 as demand grows. We remain cautious about the expansion of production capacity, but with demand growing sharply, we have plans in place to expand our manufacturing capacity to meet our minimum market demand expectations."
"In conclusion, we finished off the year on a very strong footing with record shipments and revenues that demonstrate the efficiency of our operations and value that our customers all over the world place on our brand and products. Our focus on maintaining the highest quality standard in the industry allows us to provide our customers with reliable, high-efficiency PV products regardless of where they are based. I am confident about our growth prospects as we continue to deliver long-term value to our shareholders."
Fourth Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Total Revenues
Total revenues in the fourth quarter of 2015 were RMB6.07 billion (US$937.7 million), representing an increase of 49.9% from RMB4.1 billion in the third quarter of 2015 and an increase of 104.4% from RMB2.97 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014, respectively. The sequential increase in total revenues was mainly attributable to the increase in shipments of solar modules. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to the increase in shipments as well as electricity revenues.
During the fourth quarter of 2015, revenues from downstream solar power projects were RMB136.3 million (US$21.0 million), representing a decrease of 33.8% from RMB205.8 million in the third quarter of 2015 and an increase of 69.4% from RMB80.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential decrease was primarily due to seasonality and the curtailment of projects in China's western regions. The year-over-year increase in solar power project revenues was primarily due to the increase in number and capacity of the Company's solar projects. Gross profit for solar power project revenues was RMB46.3 million (US$7.2 million) during the fourth quarter of 2015, representing a gross margin of 34.0%.
The Company has entered into certain sales contracts with retainage terms (the "Retainage Contracts") since the second half of 2012, under which customers were allowed to withhold payment of 5% to 10% of the full contract price as retainage for the specified period which generally ranges from one year to two years (the "Retainage Period"). Given the limited experience the Company has with respect to the collectability of the retainage under the Retainage Contracts, the Company does not recognize such retainage until the customers pay it after the Retainage Period expires. The total amount of retainage under the Retainage Contracts that was not recognized as revenues was RMB11.7 million (US$1.8 million) and nil for the fourth and the third quarter of 2015, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company recognized retainage payments of RMB35.3 million (US$5.4 million) as revenues. As of December 31, 2015, the cumulative amount of retainage that had not yet been recognized as revenue was RMB156.2 million (US$24.1 million).
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2015 was RMB1.18 billion (US$182.6 million), compared with RMB864.6 million in the third quarter of 2015 and RMB678.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Gross margin was 19.5% in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with 21.3% in the third quarter of 2015 and 22.8% in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential decrease was from the lower gross margins of electricity revenues due to seasonality and the curtailment of projects in China's western regions.
Income from Operations and Operating Margin
Income from operations in the fourth quarter of 2015 was RMB482.7 million (US$74.5 million), compared RMB384.0 million in the third quarter of 2015 and RMB236.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Operating margin in the fourth quarter of 2015 was 7.9%, compared with 9.5% in the third quarter of 2015 and 8.0% in the fourth quarter of 2014, respectively.
Total operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015 were RMB700.3 million (US$108.1 million), an increase of 45.7% from RMB480.6 million in the third quarter of 2015 and an increase of 58.6% from RMB441.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential increase in operating expenses was mainly due to increases in shipping and warranty costs and provisions of accounts receivable.
Total operating expenses excluding non-cash expenses, including stock-based compensation, the provisions for doubtful accounts, and disposal and impairment of fixed assets were RMB587.1 million (US$90.6 million), compared to RMB493.1 million in the third quarter of 2015 and RMB388.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Total operating expenses excluding non-cash charges as a percentage of total net revenues was 9.7% in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to 12.2% in the third quarter of 2015 and 13.1% in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense in the fourth quarter of 2015 was RMB97.3 million (US$15.0 million), a decrease of 33.5% from RMB146.2 million in the third quarter of 2015 and an increase of 18.5% from RMB82.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential decrease was mainly due to lower interest expenses associated with the discounted notes receivable and the capitalization of interests expensed in the prior year. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to an increase in loans used for solar power projects.
Exchange Gain / (Loss), Net
The Company recorded an exchange gain of RMB72.1 million (US$11.1 million) including change in fair value of forward contracts in the fourth quarter of 2015. The Company had net exchange loss of RMB121.6 million in the third quarter of 2015 and net exchange loss of RMB6.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential and year-over-year changes were mainly due to the Company's proactive hedging strategy to minimize foreign exchange impact.
Change in Fair Value of Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Call Options
The Company recognized a loss from a change in fair value of convertible senior notes of RMB48.7 million (US$7.5 million), and a gain from a change in fair value of capped call options of RMB4.0 million (US$0.6 million). The loss from change in fair value of convertible senior notes was primarily due to the increase in the price of the Company's stock during the fourth quarter of 2015. The Company repurchased convertible senior notes for an aggregate amount of US$22.5 million during the fourth quarter.
Equity in Income of Affiliated Companies
The Company recognized equity income from affiliated companies of RMB1.7 million (US$0.3 million) in the fourth quarter of 2015 as a result of its share of profits for solar power projects held by affiliated companies.
