Solar Stock News - Solarfun (Nasdaq: SOLF) Provides Updated 3Q 2009 Business Outlook
SHANGHAI - September 18, 2009 - Solarfun Power Holdings Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: SOLF), a vertically integrated manufacturer of silicon ingots and photovoltaic (PV) cells and modules in China, today provided an update on its outlook for the third quarter of 2009.
For the third quarter of 2009, Solarfun estimates:
- Total module shipments will exceed 100 MW
- Total revenues will be between RMB918 million and RMB984 million
- Gross margin will be approximately 17%
Peter Xie, President of Solarfun, commented, "The third quarter of 2009 is progressing well. Our order patterns are strong as we are seeing an improvement in end market demand. Our efforts to realign supply costs to reflect current market pricing combined with our increase in production capacity at our in-house ingot and wafer manufacturing facilities should allow us to achieve healthy margins in the third quarter. We continue to face a highly competitive pricing environment, but we remain fully confident in our ability to win business as market demand recovers."
The selected estimated results mentioned above for the third quarter of 2009 are preliminary and are subject to the completion of the Company's normal quarter-end review process. The Company's actual results may differ from these estimates.
