2011-11-14 22:59 1391

SHANGHAI, Nov. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. ("JinkoSolar" or the "Company") (NYSE: JKS) a fast-growing, vertically-integrated solar power product manufacturer based in China, today announced the following updates to its previous guidance for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

For the third quarter of 2011, the Company expects:

  • Total solar module shipments to be approximately 210 MW – 220 MW, which compares with the Company's previous guidance of 230 MW – 250 MW;
  • Total revenues to be in approximately US$270 – US$280 million, which compares with the Company's previous guidance of US$310 – US$330 million.

"Weak market demand and declining average selling prices throughout the solar supply chain resulted in shipment volumes and revenues that were lower than we expected in the third quarter," said Mr. Kangping Chen, JinkoSolar's chief executive officer.

Given these challenges, for the full year 2011, the Company expects:

  • Total solar module shipments to be approximately 770 MW – 800 MW, which compares with the Company's previous guidance of 950 MW –1000 MW;
  • Total revenues to be approximately US$1.1 – US$1.2 billion, which compares with the Company's previous guidance of US$1.4 – US$1.5 billion.

These estimated results are subject to final closing procedures, which could cause actual results to differ.

The Company will review its third quarter 2011 results via conference call at 7:00 p.m. EST on November 21, 2011. Dial-in details for the earnings conference call are as follows:
