"We're proud of being ranked by NPD Solarbuzz as the world's leading PV module supplier in terms of shipment volumes for 2012. With 2.3 GW modules delivered, we have continuously expanded our global market share under the challenging market environment. This historic achievement was built upon our well-recognized brand, superior quality products and services, extensive customer base and our employees' tireless efforts," commented Mr. Liansheng Miao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yingli Green Energy.

"In the fourth quarter, demand in Europe remained stable as a result of continued demand from Germany and contributions from other European markets, while demand in the U.S. experienced a slight seasonal slowdown. Demand in China continued to expand strongly and led our module shipments in the fourth quarter to increase by 40.6% from the third quarter. The steady development of the utility market and the quickly growing distributed generation segment will likely catapult China to become the largest solar market in 2013. We expect to increase our module shipment volumes to China in 2013 by more than 40% compared with 2012."

"Because of the demand growth in China, U.S., Japan and other new markets, we believe that the global solar market will continue to grow in 2013. In addition to building on our success in Europe, China and the U.S., we will continue to strengthen our marketing and selling efforts in Japan and other regions with high potentials of solar applications, including South America, Southeast Asia and Africa. As a result, we are confident to achieve 3.2 GW to 3.3GW of module shipment in 2013."

"In addition to further diversifying our sales geographies, we will focus on improving our profitability and optimizing our debt structure to enhance Yingli Green Energy's ability to withstand future market volatilities. With these strategies and efforts in place, we are confident to further enhance our industry leadership in 2013," Mr. Miao concluded.

PV module shipment volume in 2012 was 2,297.1 MW, a significant increase of 43.2% from 1,603.8 MW in 2011.

Excluding the above non-cash charges in an aggregate of RMB 383.4 million (US$61.5 million) and RMB 3,488.0 million in 2012 and 2011, respectively, operating expenses in 2012 would be 1,771.1 million (US$284.3 million), compared to RMB 1,656.8 million in 2011.

Given that the Company's Euro-denominated assets and liabilities are in a net asset position, the foreign currency exchange loss was mainly due to the depreciation of the Euro against the RMB in both 2012 and 2011.

Income Tax Benefit

Income tax benefit was RMB 205.7 million (US$33.0 million) in 2012, compared to RMB 133.4 million in 2011.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per ordinary share and per ADS, each of which is adjusted to exclude, as applicable, items related to share-based compensation, interest expense consisting of changes in the fair value of the interest-rate swap and the amortization of the debt discount, the amortization of intangible assets arising from purchase price allocation in connection with a series of acquisitions of equity interests in Tianwei Yingli, inventory provision, impairment of long-lived assets, gain on bargain purchase, valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets, non-cash impairments of goodwill and non-cash provision for inventory purchase commitments. The Company believes excluding these items from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors to assess and analyse the Company's on-going performance as such items are not directly attributable to the underlying performance of the Company's business operations and do not impact its cash earnings. The Company also believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important to help investors understand the Company's current financial performance and future prospects and compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
