Investment Rating - The report maintains a cautious outlook on the solar industry, expecting significant capacity cuts and a decline in profitability across the value chain, particularly in the upstream segments [3][5]. Core Insights - The report indicates a potential rush in installations in May 2025, driven by a policy cutoff, but anticipates a deeper demand pullback in the second half of 2025, with global module demand expected to decline by 40% year-over-year [4][5]. - The pricing dynamics across the solar value chain show a decline in spot prices for most segments, with glass experiencing the most significant drop of 10% month-to-date [19][20]. - The upstream profitability is expected to deteriorate further, while downstream segments are projected to remain more resilient [7][19]. Summary by Sections Sector Overview - Anticipated capacity cuts of 17% across the main value chain in 2025-2026 due to cash burn and market access issues [3]. - A forecasted decline in solar capital expenditure by 55% year-over-year in 2025, with average capacity utilization rates dropping to 59% from 2025 to 2030 [5]. Pricing Trends - As of June 19, 2025, spot prices for poly, wafer, cell, module, glass, and film have declined by an average of 6%, 5%, 3%, 0%, 10%, and 3% respectively month-to-date [19]. - The report highlights that module pricing has remained stable, contrasting with the declines seen in other segments, particularly glass [19][20]. Demand and Supply Dynamics - Global module demand surged by 74% month-over-month and 193% year-over-year in May 2025, primarily due to a rush in installations in China [4]. - The report projects that inventory days will rebound to an average of 33 days in June from 27 days in May, indicating increased inventory pressure across the value chain [13][16]. Profitability Outlook - Cash gross profit margins (GPM) for upstream segments are expected to decline, while downstream players are likely to maintain more stable margins [7][10]. - The report suggests that despite the anticipated price declines, profitability may remain resilient due to greater upstream price cuts [20].

Investment Rating - The report assigns a "Buy" rating to Longi and "Neutral" ratings to Daqo and Xinjiang Daqo New Energy, while TZE and Tongwei are rated as "Sell" [28][17][20]. Core Insights - The profitability inflection for the solar industry is expected to be delayed due to slower demand growth, with normalized earnings projected to remain low. The industry is anticipated to reach a cyclical bottom in 2025E, with a demand growth slowdown in China expected to average +6% CAGR from 2025E to 2030E, compared to +55% from 2020 to 2024 [1][15]. - The report highlights that the solar industry's capacity utilization is expected to decline to 59% from 2025E to 2030E, which is 15 percentage points lower than previous estimates. This is attributed to existing capacity cuts and a deceleration in demand growth [10][15]. - The report emphasizes the importance of a healthy balance sheet and strong R&D capabilities for companies navigating the cyclical bottom of the industry [1][14]. Industry Capex Trend and Capacity Addition - Capex spending in the solar industry is projected to decline further, with a forecasted -55% year-over-year decrease in solar capex for 2025E, compared to a previous estimate of -34% [2]. - The report notes that 30GW of module capacity has been terminated, including 15GW by Longi, and 12GW of module capacity has been delayed from listed players [2]. Demand Dynamics - Solar demand growth is expected to slow significantly, with a projected 25% decrease in global demand from 2026E to 2030E compared to previous estimates. This is primarily due to new regulations that limit on-grid access for large-scale solar projects and remove guaranteed on-grid volumes and prices for renewable projects [7]. - The report anticipates a rebound in China’s demand by 14% year-over-year in 2027E after a decline of -17% in 2026E, driven by better economics for commercial and industrial battery energy storage systems [7]. Capacity and Utilization - The report estimates a 17% cut in end-2024 module capacity by the end of 2026E, influenced by market access constraints and cash burn [3][10]. - The capacity utilization in China is projected to be 53% in 2025E and 52% in 2026E, with a slight recovery to 59% by 2027E [8]. Company-Specific Insights - Longi is highlighted as a leading integrated module player with strong R&D capabilities, expected to benefit from upstream price contractions and improved ROE due to Back Contact technology [16][17]. - TZE is rated as "Sell" due to anticipated headwinds from a shrinking addressable market and a stretched balance sheet amid aggressive downstream investment plans [19][20].
