里昂发布研报称，太阳能玻璃龙头企业应该会是供给侧改革的主要受益者。基于投资者对供给侧改革的 憧憬，将信义光能(00968)目标价由4港元微升至4.1港元，重申"跑赢大市"评级，并将2025、26及27年净 利润预测分别下调60.9%、33.6%及22.6%，基于产能扩张减慢及销售价格预测被下调。 该行认为，信义光能上半年收入及净利润分别同比跌6.5%及58.8%，与早前盈警一致，基于供需不平衡 引致太阳能玻璃价格疲弱。该行认为，在抢装潮后需求转弱的情况下，企业已开始对窑炉进行冷修并延 迟产能扩张，令行业库存回落至30天以下。 ...

报告指，信义光能2025年上半年收入、净利润分别为109.32亿、7.46亿元人民币，分别同比减6.5%、 59%，符合其上半年业绩预告。毛利率年减8.6%至18.3%，较2024年下半年的3.3%有所回升。海外出货 量增加(特别是北美)有助于缓解太阳能玻璃价格疲软，因客户由于关税政策的不确定性加速订单。信义 光能管理层提及，太阳能玻璃价格可能于2025年7月触底，行业正在削减供应，但信义光能在必要时也 准备好再次应对价格竞争。 富瑞表示，信义光能是全球最大且成本最低的太阳能玻璃制造商之一，拥有30%的市场份额;又认为公 司将受益于太阳能的长期增长趋势，但未来两年行业产能增加将超过需求，信义光能正在加速自身产能 扩张，并优先考虑市场份额增长而非短期盈利能力。随着产能的推出，价格下调不可避免，富瑞认为这 将导致多年盈利下降。该行预期随着公司更多产能上线，价格将进一步下调。 富瑞发布研报称，更新信义光能(00968)2025、2026、2027财年收入及净利润预测，至186.2亿、207.67 亿、224.08亿元及11.88亿、20.23亿、27.51亿元人民币;并将信义光能的目标价从5.07港元下调至每股 4 ...
