Gross profit in the third quarter of 2011 was $11.9 million, compared to $63.7 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $65.3 million in the third quarter of 2010. Gross margin was 2.4% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to 13.2% in the second quarter of 2011 and 17.3% in the third quarter of 2010. The sequential and year-over-year declines in gross profit and gross margin were primarily due to lower average selling prices and approximately $36.1 million in non-cash inventory write-offs and non-cash loss on firm purchase commitment in the third quarter of 2011.
Total operating expenses were $42.6 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $38.7 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $25.3 million in the third quarter of 2010.
Page 1
Selling expenses were $18.7 million in the third quarter of 2011, up 10.2% from the second quarter of 2011 and up 81.3% from the third quarter of 2010. The sequential and year-over-year increases in selling expenses were primarily due to increases in freight and other export-related expenses associated with higher shipment volumes.
General and administrative expenses were $16.0 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $16.8 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $13.7 million in the third quarter of 2010. The sequential decrease was primarily due to lower legal expenses and a partial reversal in taxes accrued in the second quarter of 2011, largely offset by increases in salaries and other expenses.
Research and development expenses were $7.9 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2010. The sequential and year-over-year increases were due to the Company’s continued investment in advanced solar technologies, which are able to offer customers higher efficiency cells, and Commercial AC modules, among other innovative product initiatives.
Operating margin was negative 6.1% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to positive 5.2% in the second quarter of 2011 and positive 10.6% in the third quarter of 2010. The sequential and year-over-year decreases in operating margin were due to lower gross margin and higher operating expenses.
Interest expense in the third quarter of 2011 was $10.8 million, compared to $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $5.4 million in the third quarter of 2010. The sequential decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in bank borrowings during the third quarter of 2011. The year-over-year increase in interest expense was due to additional bank borrowings and higher interest rates. Interest income in the third quarter of 2011 was $3.0 million, compared to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2010.
The Company recorded a gain on change in fair value of derivatives of $14.5 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to a loss of $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2011 and a loss of $23.6 million in the third quarter of 2010. Foreign exchange loss in the third quarter of 2011 was $24.0 million, compared to a foreign exchange loss of $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2011 and foreign exchange gain of $11.9 million in the third quarter of 2010.
Income tax benefit in the third quarter of 2011 was $3.4 million, compared to income tax expense of $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 and income tax expense of $4.9 million in the third quarter of 2010. The third quarter income tax benefit reflects the truing up of the year-to-date effective tax rate to reflect the loss incurred during the quarter.
Net loss attributable to Canadian Solar in the third quarter of 2011 was $43.9 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2011, and net income of $20.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2010.
Financial Condition
As of September 30, 2011, the Company had $621.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, compared to $686.3 million as of June 30, 2011 and $476.2 million as of December 31, 2010. The sequential decline in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was due to a decrease in restricted cash, as the Company reduced its short-term borrowings.
Accounts receivable balance at the end of the third quarter of 2011 was $217.8 million, compared to $278.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2011. The sequential decrease reflects the Company’s pro-active receivables management efforts as well as an improved customer mix. Accounts receivable turnover days decreased to 47 days in the third quarter of 2011 from 56 days in the second quarter of 2011.
Page 2
Inventories at the end of the third quarter of 2011 were $406.0 million, compared to $436.3 million at the end of the second quarter of 2011. Inventory turnover days were 85 days in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 84 days in the second quarter of 2011.
Accounts and notes payable were $407.1 million the end of the third quarter of 2011, compared to $304.9 million at the end of the second quarter of 2011. Accounts payable turnover days were 67 days in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 51 days in the second quarter of 2011. This increase was largely the result of the Company’s efforts to work with its supply chain partners to more closely align payments with the current industry averages.
Short-term borrowings at the end of the third quarter of 2011 totaled $794.8 million compared to $912.4 million at the end of the second quarter of 2011. The Company relies on credit lines with several local banks for nearly all of its short-term borrowing needs. These credit lines are renewed every year and have no restrictive covenants attached to them. As of the date of this press release, the Company has approximately $763 million in unused credit facilities and historically has faced no difficulties renewing its credit lines. Long-term debt at the end of the third quarter 2011 was $153.6 million, compared to $183.3 million at the end of the second quarter of 2011. The Company’s long-term debt was incurred in connection with our recent capacity expansion and has maturities ranging from 12 to 48 months.
As of September 30, 2011 the Company had $517.1 million in total stockholders’ equity, compared to $559.7 million as of June 30, 2011 and $534.3 million as of December 31, 2010.
Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Solar, remarked: “This was another challenging quarter as the solar industry continues to navigate pricing pressures, financing restrictions and fluctuating subsidies. I am proud that Canadian Solar’s team remained focused despite the potential distractions. We met our shipment guidance for the quarter, reduced inventory levels and further improved our balance sheet. Customers continue to partner with Canadian Solar because of our global brand, strong track record of execution, the proven high-quality and performance of our modules, and our dedicated service. Based on our results, we believe that Canadian Solar is benefiting from the flight to quality and continues to gain market share.”
Michael G. Potter, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Canadian Solar, commented: “Our previous efforts to closely manage capacity and our flexible business model have positioned Canadian Solar with strong cash flow from operations despite the difficult current market environment. Unlike many other companies, Canadian Solar has adequate capacity – not overcapacity; and an inventory of high performance modules that customers want – not excess inventory of non-desired product. We will continue to evaluate and match resources to demand levels as we manage our cost structure. We are confident that, through continued strict management of our supply chain, inventory, operating costs and balance sheet, especially our working capital, Canadian Solar will emerge from this period in an even stronger financial and competitive position in the markets that we serve worldwide.”
Business Outlook
The Company’s business outlook is based on management’s current views with respect to operating and market conditions, its current order book and customers’ forecasts. Management’s views and estimates are subject to change without notice.
Page 3
For the fourth quarter of 2011, shipments are expected to be in the range of approximately 340 MW to 360 MW, with gross margin expected to be between 5% and 8%. Despite the challenging global financing environment, which continues to result in customer demand uncertainty, the Company reiterates its previous full year 2011 guidance of shipments of approximately 1.2 GW to 1.3 GW. The Company will continue to actively manage manufacturing utilization, inventory and mix levels, and operating expenses as demand levels fluctuate. The Company will also continue to explore ways to increase manufacturing efficiency and yield and to lower processing and consumable costs where opportunities exist.
Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2011 totaled approximately $177 million. Reflecting the current demand environment, the Company will reduce capital expenditures in the fourth quarter 2011 to approximately $30 to $35 million, with the full year 2011 expected to be approximately $210 million, down approximately $90 million from prior plan.
Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Solar, remarked: “We saw significant declines in raw materials costs in the third quarter of 2011, including lower costs for polysilicon, wafers and cells, which we expect to help lessen the impact of expected declines in module average selling prices. We are pursuing further internal cost reduction measures. On the module side, we expect to benefit from price declines in glass and other materials. We continue to believe that our long-term mid-teens target for gross margin on our module sales is achievable. We expect these actions to contribute to our efforts to maintain a reasonable margin structure towards 2012. Meanwhile, we are making steady progress on research and development, as well as new product launch initiatives. We have already started commercial shipments of our high-efficiency ELPS modules and expect these shipments to grow. We are also on track to expand our EPC and solar system kits business, which we expect to account for approximately 10% of our total MW sold in 2011 and to grow further in 2012. We expect our strong global sales and service network, our leading brand name and solid cash position, together with our technology innovations and diversified business strategy, to help drive our future success, as we focus on growing our way out of the industry downturn.”
