Insights

Subsidiary posts large 2025 loss on 29% revenue decline.

Jiangxi Jinko, the main operating arm of JinkoSolar, reported preliminary 2025 revenue of RMB65.49 billion, down 29.18% year-on-year as photovoltaic product selling prices fell. This pushed operating profit from a positive RMB792.96 million in 2024 to an operating loss of RMB9.11 billion.

Net result for shareholders deteriorated to a loss of RMB6.79 billion, or RMB0.68 basic loss per share, versus a small profit and RMB0.01 per share in 2024. Return on equity dropped to -23.49%, while equity attributable to the parent fell about 21% to RMB25.46 billion, indicating meaningful erosion of capital.

The company links the downturn mainly to lower pricing rather than a collapse in volumes, but detailed drivers are not provided. These figures are preliminary, unaudited PRC GAAP numbers for Jiangxi Jinko only; JinkoSolar’s consolidated U.S. GAAP results may differ when reported for the period ended December 31, 2025.

("Jiangxi Jinko"), published certain preliminary unaudited consolidated financial results as of and for the full year ended December 31, 2025 (the "Jiangxi Jinko Preliminary Unaudited Financial Results"), prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the People's Republic of China (the “PRC GAAP”).

 

For full year 2025, (i) the preliminary unaudited revenues of Jiangxi Jinko were RMB65.49 billion, a decrease of 29.18% year-on-year, (ii) the preliminary unaudited net loss attributable to shareholders of Jiangxi Jinko was RMB6.79 billion, compared to net profit attributable to the shareholders of Jiangxi Jinko of RMB98.9 million in 2024, and (iii) the preliminary unaudited net loss attributable to shareholders of Jiangxi Jinko, excluding non-recurring gains and losses, was RMB7.64 billion.

FAQ

What preliminary 2025 revenue did JinkoSolar’s subsidiary Jiangxi Jinko report?

Jiangxi Jinko reported preliminary 2025 revenue of RMB65.49 billion. This represents a 29.18% year-on-year decline from RMB92.47 billion in 2024, mainly due to lower selling prices for its photovoltaic products, which significantly pressured its core business profitability.

Did Jiangxi Jinko report a profit or loss for full year 2025?

Jiangxi Jinko reported a substantial net loss attributable to shareholders of RMB6.79 billion for 2025. This compares with a net profit of RMB98.9 million in 2024, reflecting a major deterioration in profitability driven by weaker photovoltaic product pricing.

How did Jiangxi Jinko’s earnings per share change in 2025?

Basic earnings per share at Jiangxi Jinko fell to a loss of RMB0.68 in 2025. In 2024, basic earnings per share were a small positive at RMB0.01, highlighting how quickly earnings reversed as margins compressed across its photovoltaic product portfolio.

What happened to Jiangxi Jinko’s return on equity in 2025?

Weighted average return on equity dropped to -23.49% in 2025. This is a sharp decline from the 0.30% return recorded in 2024, indicating that shareholder capital generated significant losses instead of modest profits during the period.

Are Jiangxi Jinko’s 2025 figures directly comparable to JinkoSolar’s consolidated results?

No, Jiangxi Jinko’s figures are prepared under PRC GAAP and only cover that subsidiary. JinkoSolar’s consolidated results use U.S. GAAP and include other subsidiaries, so investors are cautioned not to base decisions solely on these preliminary numbers.

What ownership stake does JinkoSolar hold in Jiangxi Jinko?

JinkoSolar currently owns approximately 55.59% equity interest in Jiangxi Jinko. This majority stake means Jiangxi Jinko’s performance has a significant influence on JinkoSolar’s consolidated financial results, even though accounting standards and consolidation scope differ.
