Management Remarks
Mr. Longgen Zhang, CEO of Daqo New Energy, commented, "We had an outstanding quarter in which we reached record-high production volume of 9,437 MT while achieving the lowest production cost in the Company's history of $6.97/kg. Our results for the quarter reflect the full production capacity and cost structure that our original 35,000 MT facility is able to generate. In mid-September, we successfully completed the construction and installation of our new Phase 4A expansion project and now are currently working to ramp up production of its additional 35,000 MT of capacity. We expect Phase 4A to reach full production capacity by the end of 2019, approximately three months ahead of schedule. With Phase 4A's additional capacity quickly coming online, we expect production volumes during the fourth quarter of 2019 to be approximately 14,000 to 15,000 MT. Our production costs would be further reduced to approximately $6.5/kg upon Phase 4A running at full capacity."
"We continue to enhance mono-grade product quality and are optimizing our product portfolio towards it in order to maintain higher ASPs. We sold approximately 86% of our products to mono-wafer customers during the quarter. Once Phase 4A is fully ramped up, we expect mono-grade products to account for approximately 90% of our total production volumes. With our downstream mono-wafer customers expected to rapidly expand their capacities for next year, we believe this will lead to continued increase in mono-grade polysilicon demand, which should lead to improvement in the price of mono-grade polysilicon for next year."
"During the first three quarters of 2019, China installed approximately 16 GW of new solar PV projects, significantly below the market's expectations. We believe the primary reason is the long-delayed announcement of a subsidy policy which has rippled downwards, forcing many project developers to postpone project completion dates and extend the time needed for planning, preparation, permit applications, and procurement. It is possible that many of the 22.8 GW of subsidized projects, which were originally expected to be installed in the fourth quarter of 2019, could be delayed to the first half of year 2020. Despite softening demand from China's downstream market, demand from overseas markets remains robust and could possibly reach 85 GW this year, a significant increase from approximately 60GW in 2018. With the Chinese downstream market expected to rebound next year and overseas demand continuing to grow, we believe global solar PV demand could exceed 140GW in 2020, a significant acceleration when compared to 2019."
"Solar energy is now one of the most competitive forms of energy generation, even when compared with traditional fossil fuel in many markets. When combined with efficient methods to store power, solar energy has the potential to become a sustaining baseload power. As the economics improve and governments pass more policies to tackle climate change, we believe we are at the cusp of major changes in the market which will create enormous opportunities for us over the next several years. We are confident in our ability to navigate this temporary downturn in the market and are ready to take advantage of the recovery next year when the market will continue advancing towards grid parity."
"As one of the lowest-cost polysilicon producers with the highest standards for quality, we are among the very few polysilicon manufacturers who are able to generate a profit in the current challenging market environment. For the first three quarters of this year, our net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $100 million. Once Phase 4A is operating at full capacity, we expect to make further improvements in product quality and cost structure so as to enhance our leadership position in the industry."
Outlook and guidance
The Company expects to produce approximately 14,000 to 15,000 MT of polysilicon during the fourth quarter of 2019 and sell approximately 12,500 to 13,500 MT of polysilicon to external customers during the fourth quarter of 2019.For the full year of 2019, the Company expects to produce approximately 39,300 to 40,300 MT of polysilicon, inclusive of the impact of the Company's annual facility maintenance.
This outlook reflects Daqo New Energy's current and preliminary view as of the date of this press release and may be subject to changes. The Company's ability to achieve these projections is subject to risks and uncertainties. See "Safe Harbor Statement" at the end of this press release.
Third Quarter 2019 Results
Revenues
Revenues were $83.9 million, compared to $66.0 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $67.4 million in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher polysilicon sales volumes which were offset by slightly lower ASPs. In RMB-terms, the Company's polysilicon ASPs during the third quarter of 2019 were slightly higher than during the second quarter in 2019. In USD-terms, the Company's polysilicon ASPs fell as a result of the depreciation of the RMB against the USD.
Gross profit and margin
Gross profit was $18.1 million, compared to $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $12.8 million in the third quarter of 2018. Gross margin was 21.5%, compared to 13.0% in the second quarter of 2019 and 19.1% in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower production costs despite a slight decrease in ASPs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8.2 million, compared to $7.8 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2018. This quarter's SG&A expenses include $4.0 million of non-cash share-based compensation costs related to the Company's share incentive plan. The increase in SG&A was primarily due to an increase in shipping costs as a result of higher sales volume.
Research and development expenses
Research and development (R&D) expenses were $1.2 million, compared to $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2018. R&D activities during the quarter included efforts and initiatives to reduce carbon and metal content in the manufacturing system to improve polysilicon purity. Research and development expenses could vary from period to period and reflect R&D activities that took place during the quarter.
Income / (loss) from operations
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations was $8.8 million, compared to loss from operations of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2019 and income from operations of $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2018.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $2.6 million, compared to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2018.
EBITDA
EBITDA from continuing operations was $19.7 million, compared to $10.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $14.8 million in the third quarter of 2018. EBITDA margin was 23.5%, compared to 15.5% in the second quarter of 2019 and 22.0% in the third quarter of 2018.
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax
During the third quarter of 2018, the Company decided to discontinue its solar wafer manufacturing operations. Net income from discontinued operations was $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2019 and net loss from discontinued operations of $22.4 million in the third quarter of 2018. Net income from discontinued operations during the second and third quarter in 2019 resulted from the disposal of fixed assets which were impaired in 2018 and previous years.
Net income / (loss) attributable to Daqo New Energy Corp. shareholders and earnings / (loss) per ADS
As a result of the aforementioned, net income attributable to Daqo New Energy Corp. shareholders was $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to net loss attributable to Daqo New Energy Corp. shareholders of $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $18.3 million in the third quarter of 2018.
Earnings per basic ADS of $0.37, compared to loss per basic ADS of $0.16 in the second quarter of 2019, and $1.39 in the third quarter of 2018.
Financial Condition
As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $68.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, compared to $79.6 million as of June 30, 2019 and $113.2 million as of September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2019, the accounts receivable balance was $0.1 million, compared to $0.1 million as of June 30, 2019 and $1 thousand as of September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2019, the notes receivable balance was $4.3 million, compared to $9.4 million as of June 30, 2019 and $22.5 million as of September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2019, total borrowings were $248.8 million, of which $163.5 million were long-term borrowings, compared to total borrowings of $243.2 million, including $151.5 million long-term borrowings, as of June 30, 2019 and total borrowings of $165.3 million, including $119.4 million long-term borrowings, as of September 30, 2018.
Cash Flows
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $101.6 million, compared to $63.6 million in the same period of 2018.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash used in investing activities was $202.3 million, compared to $99.9 million in the same period of 2018. The net cash used in investing activities in 2019 and 2018 was primarily related to the capital expenditures on Xinjiang Phase 3B and 4A polysilicon projects.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $76.6 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $84.3 million in the same period of 2018.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Daqo New Energy's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("US GAAP"), the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures that are adjusted for certain items from the most directly comparable GAAP measures including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and EBITDA margin; adjusted net income attributable to Daqo New Energy Corp. shareholders and adjusted earnings per basic and diluted ADS. Our management believes that each of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, enabling them to better assess changes in key element of the Company's results of operations across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of certain items as described below. Thus, our management believes that, used in conjunction with US GAAP financial measures, these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with meaningful supplemental information to assess the Company's operating results in a manner that is focused on its ongoing, core operating performance. Our management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to assess the business, its financial performance, current and historical results, as well as for strategic decision-making and forecasting future results. Given our management's use of these non-GAAP measures, the Company believes these measures are important to investors in understanding the Company's operating results as seen through the eyes of our management. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with US GAAP or intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with US GAAP; the non-GAAP measures should be reviewed together with the US GAAP measures, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
The Company uses EBITDA, which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and EBITDA margin, which represents the proportion of EBITDA in revenues. Adjusted net income attributable to Daqo New Energy Corp. shareholders and adjusted earnings per basic and diluted ADS exclude costs related to the non-operational polysilicon assets in Chongqing. Such costs mainly consist of non-cash depreciation costs, as well as utilities and maintenance costs associated with the temporarily idle polysilicon machinery and equipment, and the Company had removed this adjustment from the non-GAAP reconciling item since the fourth quarter of 2018, because as of the end of the third quarter of 2018, all of the polysilicon machinery and equipment had been either relocated to Xinjiang, disposed, or planned to be disposed of in due course. Adjusted net income attributable to Daqo New Energy Corp. shareholders and adjusted earnings per basic and diluted ADS also exclude costs related to share-based compensation. Share-based compensation is a non-cash expense that varies from period to period. As a result, our management excludes this item from our internal operating forecasts and models. Our management believes that this adjustment for share-based compensation provides investors with a basis to measure the Company's core performance, including compared with the performance of other companies, without the period-to-period variability created by share-based compensation.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to comparable US GAAP measures is presented later in this document.
