With orders in hand exceeding 10 billion yuan, it is expected that project funds will be recorded in the second quarter, and the cash flow and profit situation will be improved. With the signing of the "Senegal AESA 3x135MW clean and efficient power plant EPC project general contract" signed between the company and the African Energy Company on June 5, the company has so far completed the order balance of 13.637 billion yuan, four times the 2016 revenue. At present, Laos, Thailand and other projects have been launched and received advance payments. They are expected to receive 1.3 billion yuan in the second and third quarters, and 2 billion yuan in cash rebates for the whole year, which will effectively improve the company's current operating cash flow and contribute to profits. Coupled with the Guangyuan garbage power generation is expected to be connected to the grid in July, and the Jiamusi and Yulin projects are expected to be completed and ignited by the end of 2017, we believe that the company's first-half performance will reverse the downward trend in the first quarter compared with the same period last year and return to growth.
