On the news front, XINYI SOLAR issued a profit warning earlier, expecting that for the year ending December 31, 2024, net profit will decrease by 70% to 80% compared to the 2023 fiscal year. Morgan Stanley believes that the company will continue to be weak in the short term due to weak demand, and Photovoltaic Glass manufacturers have been actively maintaining production lines. Additionally, with the holidays entering in January, supply pressures will remain significant in the short term.
HSBC published Research Reports stating that recent industry data has shown that since November 2024 the average selling price (ASP) of Photovoltaic Glass products from leading enterprises has fallen below production costs. Weak product prices, rising costs, and asset impairment have all brought short-term profit pressure to the Photovoltaic Glass Industry, and it is believed that manufacturers' profits will still be under pressure in the first quarter of this year. The bank has lowered the forecast for FLAT GLASS's Photovoltaic Glass shipment volumes from 2024 to 2026 by 2% to 10%, and the profit forecast has also been lowered by 16% to 47%.
