- Non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB5.09 (US$0.72) and RMB4.59 (US$0.65), respectively, in the first quarter of 2020, compared with RMB9.74 for both in the fourth quarter of 2019 and RMB0.85 and RMB0.84, respectively, in the first quarter of 2019.
Mr. Kangping Chen, JinkoSolar’s Chief Executive Officer commented, “JinkoSolar continued to outperform during the quarter despite a very challenging global operating environment. Total solar module shipments, total revenue and gross margin were all within our guidance range for the quarter. Module shipments hit a record high 3,411MW during the quarter while total revenues were US$1.03 billion and gross margin was 19.7% if you exclude the impact from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico. As one of the world’s leading solar module manufacturers, we have leveraged our deep experience to lead the industry through the pandemic which has allowed us to not only further expand our market share but also create technical standards and develop technological breakthroughs for a variety of products. Our order book for the second quarter and the rest of the year remains strong, and our guidance for total shipments for the full year 2020 remains unchanged at 18 to 20 GW.”
“While we expect global installations to fall by around 25% from last year due to the pandemic, we see a number of growth opportunities in the near-term as the market consolidates. Governments around the world have refocused their attention on energy security and localization, especially after the COVID-19 outbreak. As solar energy continues to race towards grid parity, we expect more countries to implement policies that support solar energy in the post-pandemic era, and at the same time, remove outdated energy capacity, reduce the levelized cost of energy for solar, and accelerate the application of new technologies to drive the deeper penetration of solar energy globally. Smaller, less-competitive manufacturers will gradually exit the market, leaving more opportunities for a few key players to expand their market share worldwide.”
“Technology remains central to strengthening our competitive edge in the market. We recently launched a new Tiger Pro series module with a maximum power output of 580W. The pandemic has actually accelerated the adoption of high-efficiency premium products by downstream partners which is allowing the industry to transition into the 500W ultra-high efficiency era earlier than expected. We continue to lead the industry by developing and launching innovative premium products, leveraging our highly-skilled R&D team, industry-leading research platform and expanding capacity to bring mass-produced cutting-edge products to market.”
“We continue to face a variety of challenges so far during the second quarter of 2020. Despite falling raw material prices, there has been a significant decline in overall global demand, and varying degrees of logistics and project delays in overseas markets. Our teams have been working hard to coordinate production, logistics and sales, while optimizing inventory levels. We continue to arrange shipments of personal protective equipment to our Malaysian and U.S. production facilities and ensure we are doing all we can to care for our employees, clients, suppliers and other business partners during this challenging time.”
First Quarter 2020 Financial Results
Total Revenues
Total revenues in the first quarter of 2020 were RMB8.48 billion (US$1.20 billion). In March 2020, the Company disposed of two solar power plants in Mexico with a combined capacity of 155 MW to an independent third party, and recognized revenue and cost of sales in the amount of RMB1.20 billion (US$169.1 million) and RMB979.7 million (US$138.4 million), respectively. Revenue from the disposal is composed of RMB284.4 million (US$ 40.1 million) in cash consideration and RMB1.29 billion (US$ 182.2 million) in non-cash consideration related to the buyer assuming project debt which was offset by settlement of loan receivables due from the solar power plants in the amount of RMB 376.9 million (US$ 53.2 million). Excluding the impact from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, revenue was RMB7.29 billion (US$1.03 billion), a decrease of 23.5% from RMB9.53 billion in the fourth quarter of 2019 and an increase of 25.1% from RMB5.82 billion in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in the shipment of solar modules partially due to the delay of module shipments caused by the outbreak of COVID-19. The year-over-year increase was mainly attributable to the increase in shipment of solar modules.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit in the first quarter of 2020 was RMB1.66 billion (US$234.0 million). Excluding the impact from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, gross profit was RMB1.44 billion (US$203.2 million), compared with RMB1.73 billion in the fourth quarter of 2019 and RMB964.3 million in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in the shipment of solar modules. The year-over-year increase was mainly attributable to (i) an increase in the shipment of solar modules, (ii) an increase in self-produced production volume that is increasingly shifting toward integrated mono-based high-efficiency products capacity, and (iii) the continued reduction of integrated production costs resulting from the Company’s industry-leading integrated cost structure.
Gross margin was 19.5% in the first quarter of 2020. Excluding the impact from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, gross margin was 19.7%, compared with 18.2% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 16.6% in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential and year-over-year increases were mainly attributable to (i) an increase in self-produced production volume by increasing shift toward integrated mono-based high-efficiency products capacity, and (ii) the continued reduction of integrated production costs resulting from the Company’s industry-leading integrated cost structure.
Income from Operations and Operating Margin
Income from operations in the first quarter of 2020 was RMB732.7 million (US$103.5 million), including RMB213.2 million (US$30.1 million) from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, compared with RMB594.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and RMB235.7 million in the first quarter of 2019. Operating margin was 8.6% in the first quarter of 2020. Excluding the impact from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, operating margin was 7.1%, compared with 6.2% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 4.0% in the first quarter of 2019.
Total operating expenses in the first quarter of 2020 were RMB924.2 million (US$130.5 million) including RMB4.8 million (US$ 0.7 million) from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, a decrease of 18.6% from RMB1.13 billion in the fourth quarter of 2019 and an increase of 26.8% from RMB728.6 million in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential decease was mainly due to (i) a decrease in shipping cost resulting from a decrease in solar module shipments, (ii) a decrease of impairment loss on property, plant and equipment, and (iii) a reversal of a previous bad debt provision upon cash receipt of RMB52.5 million (USD7.4 million) based on final judgement for the lawsuits with Wuxi Zhongcai. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to an increase in shipping costs.
Total operating expenses accounted for 10.9% of total revenues in the first quarter of 2020. Excluding the impact from the disposal of two solar power plants in Mexico, operating expense accounted for 12.6% of revenues, compared to 11.9% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 12.5% in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential increase was primarily due to an increase in shipping costs as a percentage of total revenue associated with a higher percentage of shipments to overseas market in the first quarter of 2020.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense in the first quarter of 2020 was RMB108.6 million (US$15.3 million), an increase of 29.6% from RMB83.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and an increase of 13.0% from RMB96.1 million in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential increase was mainly due to an increase in interest expense associated with discounted notes receivables in the first quarter of 2020. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to (i) an increase in borrowings, (ii) the cessation of interest capitalization on certain completed solar projects, and (iii) issuance of additional convertible senior notes in May 2019.
Exchange (Loss)/Gain and Change in Fair Value of Foreign Exchange Derivatives
The Company recorded a net exchange loss (including change in fair value of foreign exchange derivatives) of RMB106.8 million (US$15.1 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared to a net exchange gain of RMB77.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and a net exchange loss of RMB62.9 million in the first quarter of 2019. With the rapid increase in overseas orders, the Company increased its foreign currency hedge ratio to hedge against anticipated cash flow denominated in U.S. dollars over the next six months. The Company recorded a loss arising from foreign exchange forward contracts associated with the appreciation of the U.S. dollars against the RMB in the first quarter of 2020.
Change in Fair Value of Interest Rate Swap
The Company entered into Interest Rate Swap agreements with several banks for the purpose of reducing interest rate risk exposure associated with the Company’s overseas solar power projects. The Company recorded a loss arising from change in fair value of interest rate swap of RMB78.9 million (US$11.1 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared to a gain of RMB24.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The loss was primarily due to a decrease in long-term interest rates in the first quarter of 2020. The Company did not elect to use hedge accounting for any of its derivatives.
Change in Fair Value of Convertible Senior Notes and Call Option
The Company issued US$85.0 million of 4.5% convertible senior notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) in May 2019 and has elected to measure the Notes at fair value. The Company recognized a gain from a change in fair value of the Notes of RMB166.2 million (US$23.5 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared to a loss of RMB152.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The change was primarily due to a decrease in the Company’s stock price in the first quarter of 2020.
Concurrent with the issuance of the Notes in May 2019, the Company entered into a call option transaction with an affiliate of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC. The Company accounted for the call option transaction as freestanding derivative assets in its consolidated balance sheets, which is marked to market during each reporting period. The Company recorded a loss from a change in fair value of the call option of RMB100.2 million (US$14.1 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared to a gain of RMB85.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The change was primarily due to a decrease in the Company’s stock price in the first quarter of 2020.
Equity in (Loss)/Gain of Affiliated Companies
The Company indirectly holds a 20% equity interest in Sweihan PV Power Company P.J.S.C, a developer and operator of solar power projects in Dubai, and accounts for its investment using the equity method. The Company also holds a 30% equity interest in Jiangsu Jinko-Tiansheng Co., Ltd, which processes and assembles PV modules as an OEM manufacturer, and accounts for its investments using the equity method. The Company recorded equity in loss of affiliated companies of RMB101.5 million (US$14.3 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared with a gain of RMB31.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and a loss of RMB23.7 million in the first quarter of 2019. The loss primarily arose from change in fair value of interest rate swap agreements purchased by Sweihan PV Power Company P.J.S.C. due to a decrease in long-term interest rates in the first quarter of 2020. Hedge accounting was not applied for the derivative.
Income Tax (Expenses)/Benefit
The Company recorded an income tax expense of RMB109.5 million (US$15.5 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared with an income tax expense of RMB221.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and an income tax benefit of RMB4.3 million in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential decrease was mainly because (i) a JinkoSolar’s subsidiary turned a profit in 2019 and utilized corresponding deferred tax assets recognized for tax loss carryforward, and (ii) JinkoSolar’s subsidiaries in U.S. with higher income tax rate generated higher profits in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Net Income and Earnings per Share
Net income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders was RMB282.4 million (US$39.9 million) in the first quarter of 2020, compared with RMB369.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and RMB40.2 million in the first quarter of 2019.
Basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share were RMB1.58 (US$0.22) and RMB0.67 (US$0.09), respectively, during the first quarter of 2020. This translates into basic and diluted earnings per ADS of RMB6.32 (US$0.89) and RMB2.67 (US$0.38), respectively.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders in the first quarter of 2020 was RMB227.5 million (US$32.1 million), compared with RMB432.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and RMB33.3 million in the first quarter of 2019.
Non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share were RMB1.27 (US$0.18) and RMB1.15 (US$0.16), respectively, during the first quarter of 2020. This translates into non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS of RMB5.09 (US$0.72) and RMB4.59 (US$0.65), respectively.
Financial Position

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), JinkoSolar uses certain non-GAAP financial measures including, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per Share, and non-GAAP earnings per ADS, which are adjusted from the comparable GAAP results to exclude certain expenses or incremental ordinary shares relating to share-based compensation and, convertible senior notes:
- Non-GAAP net income is adjusted to exclude, change in fair value of convertible senior notes and call option, interest expenses of convertible senior notes and call option, exchange (gain)/loss on the convertible senior notes and call option, and stock-based compensation (benefit)/expense; given these Non-GAAP net income adjustments above are either related to the Company or its subsidiaries incorporated in Cayman Islands, which are not subject to tax exposures, or related to those subsidiaries with tax loss positions which result in no tax impacts, therefore no tax adjustment is needed in conjunction with these Non-GAAP net income adjustments; and
- Non-GAAP earnings per share and non-GAAP earnings per ADS are adjusted to exclude the expenses relating to issuance cost of convertible senior notes, change in fair value of convertible senior notes and call option, interest expenses of convertible senior notes and call option, exchange gain on the convertible senior notes and call option, and stock-based compensation. As the Non-GAAP net income is adjusted to exclude the change in fair value of call option, the dilutive impact of call option, if any, is also excluded from the denominator for the calculation of Non-GAAP earnings per share and non-GAAP earnings per ADS.
The Company believes that the use of non-GAAP information is useful for analysts and investors to evaluate JinkoSolar’s current and future performances based on a more meaningful comparison of net income and diluted net income per ADS when compared with its peers and historical results from prior periods. These measures are not intended to represent or substitute numbers as measured under GAAP. The submission of non-GAAP numbers is voluntary and should be reviewed together with GAAP results.
Impact of the Recently Adopted Major Accounting Pronouncement
The Company adopted the update of ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” on January 1, 2020.
Upon adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2020, the Company used the modified retrospective transition method through a RMB6.6 million cumulative-effect increase to retained earnings, among which RMB30.9 million was related to the decrease of allowance for accounts receivables-third parties, RMB15.0 million was related to the increase of allowance for accounts receivables- related parties and RMB9.3 million was related to the increase of allowance for other receivables and other current/non-current assets. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
