"I am pleased to report a strong start to the year as we record our fourth consecutive quarter of profitability, well within our previously issued guidance," commented Mr. Kangping Chen, JinkoSolar's Chief Executive Officer. "We continued to expand our manufacturing and downstream businesses by increasing our geographic reach, further cutting costs and keeping gross margins stable. We are confident in our ability to deliver solid results for the year as we benefit from the high gross margins in our module business and the growing profits from our downstream business."  

"Our new revenue stream from power generation increased 62.3% sequentially to RMB48.4 million as we generated a record 50 million kWh of energy during the quarter. We believe that project development will quickly rebound in the second quarter, as we work to connect 140MW worth of PV projects to the grid and begin constructing another 200MW to 250MW."
  
"Our geographic footprint continued to grow, as we expanded into new emerging markets. We also maintained our market leading position in China, where we anticipate a strong second quarter and second half of the year. Shipments to the US and Japan now account for approximately 30% of total shipments as we expanded our presence there to take advantage of higher ASPs. We continue to see shipments to new emerging markets such as South Africa, Chile and India increase as we leverage our position there as one of largest module suppliers. We expect module shipments to increase by approximately 30% next quarter and are confident we will meet our full year guidance."  

"We remain a PV technology leader. Last week we proudly unveiled our new series of 'Eagle +' modules which have been engineered to reliably reach 275 watts of peak power output, a new record for mass-produced and commercially available modules in the market."
  
"I am proud of what we have accomplished during the quarter and am eager to see our investments in diverse revenues streams bear fruit. Despite the one-time foreign exchange loss, we will continue to prudently manage our business going forward as we develop to a one-stop energy solution provider."  

First Quarter 2014 Financial Results  

Total Revenues  

Total revenues in the first quarter of 2014 were RMB2.0 billion (US$323.9 million), representing a decrease of 8.0% from RMB2.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2013 and an increase of 73.1% from RMB1.16 billion in the first quarter of 2013. The sequential decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to the decrease in shipments of solar modules because of the negative impact of seasonality. The year-over-year increase in total revenues was mainly attributable to the increase in shipments, improving average selling prices ("ASPs") of solar modules and the increase in electricity revenues from solar projects.

During the first quarter of 2014, electricity revenues from solar projects were RMB48.4 million (US$7.8 million), an increase of 62.3% from the fourth quarter of 2013. The increase in electricity revenues was primarily due to the increase in number and capacity of the Company's solar projects. Gross profit for electricity revenues was RMB29.7 million (US$4.8 million) during the first quarter of 2014, representing a gross margin of 61.4%. Net income of solar power plant entities was RMB25.3 million (US$4.1 million) during the first quarter of 2014, representing a net profit margin of 52.2%.  

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 Retainage Contracts, the Company does not recognize such retainage until the customers pay it after the Retainage Period expires. The total amounts of retainage under the Retainage Contracts that were not recognized as revenue were RMB9.2 million and RMB11.1 million for the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013, respectively. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company received retainage payment of RMB11.5 million and recognized it as revenue. As of March 31, 2014, the cumulative amount of retainage that had not yet been recognized as revenue was RMB167.3 million (US$26.9 million).  

Gross Profit and Gross Margin  

Gross profit in the first quarter of 2014 was RMB483.1 million (US$77.7 million), compared with a gross profit of RMB540.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and a gross profit of RMB147.3 million in the first quarter of 2013.  

Gross margin was 24.0% in the first quarter of 2014 compared with 24.7% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and 12.7% in the first quarter of 2013. In-house gross margin, which relates to the Company's in-house silicon wafer, solar cell, and solar module production, was 26.6% in the first quarter of 2014, compared with 24.3% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and 13.1% in the first quarter of 2013. The year-over-year increases in gross margin and in-house gross margin were mainly due to improvements in operating efficiency, continued cost reductions for the Company's polysilicon and auxiliary materials and improved ASPs. The Company also enjoyed higher gross margins generated by solar project electricity revenues.  

Income/(Loss) from Operations and Operating Margin  

Income from operations in the first quarter of 2014 was RMB203.5 million (US$32.7 million), compared with income from operations of RMB262.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and a loss from operations of RMB16.8 million in the first quarter of 2013. Operating margin in the first quarter of 2014 was 10.1%, compared with 12.0% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and negative 1.4% in the first quarter of 2013.  

Total operating expenses in the first quarter of 2014 were RMB279.7 million (US$45.0 million), an increase of 0.4% from RMB278.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and an increase of 70.4% from RMB164.1 million in the first quarter of 2013. The year-over-year increase in operating expenses was mainly due to the increase in shipping and warranty costs and research and development expenses.  

Total operating expenses excluding non-cash charges, consisting of the provision for bad debts and an impairment of long-lived assets, was RMB263.3 million (US$42.4 million), compared to RMB270.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and RMB173.8 million in the first quarter of 2013.  

Total operating expenses excluding non-cash charges as a percentage of total net revenues was 13.1% in the first quarter of 2014, compared to 12.3% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and 14.9% in the first quarter of 2013.  

Interest Expense, Net  

Net interest expense in the first quarter of 2014 was RMB61.0 million (US$9.8 million), an increase of 14.2% from RMB53.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and an increase of 10.3% from RMB55.3 million in the first quarter of 2013. This increase was primarily due to expenses associated with the issuing of the Company's convertible notes in January 2014.  

Exchange gain/loss  

Due to the depreciation of RMB against the US dollar and euro during the first quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an exchange loss of RMB137.4 million (US$22.1 million) in the first quarter of 2014, which was primarily due to a foreign currency exchange loss of RMB23.0 million (US$3.7 million) and loss in fair value change of forward contracts of RMB114.4 million (US$18.4 million), including an unrealized loss of RMB110.4 million (US$17.8 million). The Company had net exchange gain of RMB9.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and net exchange loss of RMB18.7 million in the first quarter of 2013.  

Change in Fair Value of Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Call Options  

The Company has elected to measure the convertible senior notes issued in January 2014 in their entirety at fair value. The Company recognized gain from a change in fair value of convertible senior notes of RMB58.0 million (US$9.3 million) and a loss from a change in fair value of capped call options of RMB31.3 million (US$5.0 million) primarily due to the changes in the stock price of the Company in the first quarter of 2014.  

Equity in income of affiliated companies  

The Company recognized equity income from affiliated companies of RMB10.2 million (US$1.6 million) in the first quarter of 2014 as a result of its share of profits for solar projects held by affiliated companies.  

Income Tax Expense
