8:00 am Eastern Time (8:00 pm Shanghai Time) on March 18, 2012. A slide
presentation with details of the results will also be available on the
Company's website prior to the call.
FOURTH QUARTER 2012 HIGHLIGHTS
o Total net revenues were RMB836.7 million (US$134.3 million), a decrease of
13.4% from 3Q12, and a decrease of 14.5% from 4Q11.
o PV module shipments, including module processing services, were 198.9 MW,
a decrease of 17.0% from 239.5 MW in 3Q12, and an increase of 5.2% from
189.1 MW in 4Q11.
o Average selling price ("ASP"), excluding module processing services,
decreased to RMB3.75 per watt (US$0.60) from RMB4.22 per watt in 3Q12, and
decreased from RMB6.29 per watt in 4Q11.
o The Company recorded certain non-cash charges totaling RMB377.5 million
(US$60.6 million), including RMB53.9 million (US$8.6 million) from
inventory write-down, RMB87.6 million (US$14.1 million) from provisions
for doubtful debt of accounts receivable and RMB236.0 million (US$37.9
million) from provisions for advance payments on the Company's purchase
commitment under long-term supply contracts.
o Gross loss was RMB261.8 million (US$42.0 million), compared with gross
loss of RMB56.1 million in 3Q12 and gross loss of RMB604.6 million in
4Q11.
o Gross margin decreased to negative 31.3%, compared with negative 5.8% in
3Q12, due to both the lower ASP and the non-cash charges from inventory
write-down and provisions for advance payments associated with long-term
supply contracts. Gross margin in 4Q11 was negative 61.8%. Gross margin
excluding the aforementioned provisions would have been negative 2.6% in
4Q12.
o Operating loss increased by 149.1% to RMB625.8 million (US$100.4 million)
from an operating loss of RMB251.2 million in 3Q12, compared to an
operating loss of RMB1, 005.2 million in 4Q11. The increase in operating
loss in 4Q12 from 3Q12 was primarily due to the significantly higher gross
loss and non-cash charge from provisions for doubtful debt of accounts
and advance payments on the Company's purchase commitment under long-term
supply contracts..
o Operating margin decreased to negative 74.8% from negative 26.0% in 3Q12,
compared with negative 102.8% in 4Q11.
o Net loss attributable to shareholders on a non-GAAP basis[1] was RMB650.6
million (US$104.4 million), compared with net loss of RMB301.9 million in
3Q12 and net loss of RMB862.3 million in 4Q11.
o Net loss per basic ADS on a non-GAAP basis was RMB7.70 (US$1.24), compared
with net loss per basic ADS on a non-GAAP basis of RMB3.57 in 3Q12 and net
loss per ADS on a non-GAAP basis of RMB10.22 in 4Q11.
o Net loss attributable to shareholders on a GAAP basis was RMB670.4 million
(US$107.6 million), compared with net loss attributable to shareholders on
a GAAP basis of RMB322.1 million in 3Q12. The Company recorded a non-cash
gain of RMB1.4 million (US$0.2 million) from the change in fair value of
the convertible feature of the Company's convertible bonds as compared to
a non-cash gain of RMB1.2 million in 3Q12. Net loss attributable to
shareholders on a GAAP basis in 4Q11 was RMB832.9 million, including a
non-cash gain of RMB33.2 million from the change in fair value of the
convertible feature of the Company's convertible bonds. As explained in
prior quarters, the fluctuations in the fair value of the convertible
feature of the Company's convertible bonds are primarily due to changes in
the Company's ADS price, over which the Company has no direct control, and
does not reflect the operating performance of the Company.
o Net loss per basic ADS on a GAAP basis was RMB7.93 (US$1.27), compared
with net loss per basic ADS on a GAAP basis of RMB3.81 in 3Q12 and net
loss per basic ADS on a GAAP basis of RMB9.88 in 4Q11.

million), including RMB326.1 million (US$52.3 million) from inventory
write-down as a result of a lower of cost or market assessment and a
regular provision for obsolescence, RMB236.0 million (US$37.9 million)
from provisions for advance payments associated with long-term supply
contracts, RMB87.6 million (US$14.1 million) from provisions for doubtful

Mr. Ki-Joon HONG, Chairman and CEO of Hanwha SolarOne, commented, "The year
2012 will be remembered as one of tremendous challenge and change for the
solar industry, with significant industry overcapacity and regulatory changes
in key markets leading to a slowdown in demand, accompanied by rapidly
decelerating prices. Almost all companies, including ours, found it virtually
impossible to record profitability in such an operating environment. In spite
of the degrading operating environment we faced, our company made significant
progress in a number of areas; including bringing greater balance between our
OEM model and branded one, diversifying our sales base into new emerging
growth markets, improving our non-poly processing cost structure to be
competitive with industry leaders, instituted operational efficiencies at our
manufacturing sites including enhanced automation, better quality, improved
product features and new product introductions, and secured financing from a
variety of sources both within and outside mainland China."
Chairman HONG continued " Our volumes in the fourth quarter did not reflect
the improving demand environment of late as we chose to sacrifice sales at
loss making prices and our profitability was impacted by a number of non-cash
charges. However, we are well on track to achieving 50% improvement in first
quarter 2013 shipment volume and over 50% for the full year. We have good
visibility in South Africa and Japan for the first half of this year in
particular, and continue to see growing opportunities in China, the US, the
Middle East and other emerging markets of importance. Our funding for 2013 is
proceeding as planned. Industry prices seem to have stabilized, and we see
good opportunities to exploit synergies with our sister company Hanwha
Q.CELLS, including a sizeable module tolling business. Profitability will
remain challenging for most, if not all of 2013, but we feel confident that we
are making good progress on the return to a path of profitability, aided by
forecasted improvements in the operating environment and securing the company
to challenge for industry leadership longer term."
FOURTH QUARTER 2012 RESULTS
o Total net revenues were RMB836.7 million (US$134.3 million), a decrease of
13.4% from RMB966.1 million in 3Q12, and a decrease of 14.5% from RMB978.3
million in 4Q11. The decrease in total net revenues in 4Q12 compared with
3Q12 was primarily due to lower shipments and reduced ASP.
o PV module shipments, including module processing services, were 198.9 MW,
a decrease from 239.5 MW in 3Q12, and an increase from 189.1 MW in 4Q11.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130318/CN78564-INFO-b )
o Module shipments to Japan grew from 3% in 3Q12 to 20% in 4Q12 at a good
pricing level. The China market remained solid for the Company and
increased from 11% in 3Q12 to 15% of module shipments in 4Q12. The
dispersion of shipments this quarter saw relatively new and potentially
attractive markets come to the forefront with large contributions from
Greece (16%), Thailand (8%) and India (6%). Historically strong markets
accounted for a smaller proportion of shipments as a result of the
aforementioned; shipments from Germany declined to 8% from 39% in 3Q12 as
the full effect of the July 1 incentives reductions were felt and the US
decreased to 6% this quarter. In 2012, shipments to Europe and Africa (EA)
contributed 62% to total module shipments with Asian Pacific (AP)
accounting for 24% and North America (NA) 8%.
o Average selling price ("ASP"), excluding module processing services,
decreased to RMB3.75 per watt (US$0.60) from RMB4.22 per watt in 3Q12 and
from RMB6.29 per watt in 4Q11.
o Gross loss of 4Q12 was RMB261.8 million (US$42.0 million), compared with a
gross loss of RMB56.1 million in 3Q12 and a gross loss of RMB604.6 million
in 4Q11.
o Gross margin decreased to negative 31.3%, compared with negative 5.8% in
3Q12, due to both the lower ASP and the non-cash charges from inventory
write-down and provisions for advance payments on the Company's purchase
commitment under long-term supply contracts. Gross margin in 4Q11 was
negative 61.8%.
o The blended cost of goods sold ("COGS") per watt, excluding module
processing services, was US$0.81 (including $0.17 non-cash charges from
inventory write-down and provisions for advance payments associated with
long-term supply contract), representing a 14.1% increase from US$0.71 in
3Q12. The blended COGS takes into account the production cost (silicon and
non-silicon) using internally sourced wafers, purchase costs and
additional processing costs of externally sourced wafers and cells.
Excluding non-cash charges, the Company would have achieved a 9.9%
reduction in blended COGS to $0.64.
o Operating loss of 4Q12 was RMB625.8 million (US$100.4 million), compared
with an operating loss of RMB251.2 million in 3Q12 and an operating loss
of RMB1, 005.2 million in 4Q11. Operating margin decreased to negative
74.8% from negative 26.0% in 3Q12, compared to negative 102.8% in 4Q11.
o Operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues were 43.5% in
4Q12, compared with 20.2% in 3Q12 and 40.9% in 4Q11. The higher operating
expenses in 4Q12 compared with 3Q12 was primarily due to non-cash charges
from provisions for doubtful debt of accounts receivable and decrease in
revenue.
o Interest expense was RMB73.9 million (US$11.9 million), compared with
RMB79.9 million in 3Q12 and RMB41.7 million in 4Q11.
o The Company recorded a net gain of RMB19.0 million (US$3.0 million), which
combined a foreign exchange gain with a loss from the change in fair value
of derivatives. The Company recorded a net gain of RMB18.1 million in
3Q12 and a net loss of RMB0.1 million in 4Q11 for the foreign exchange
gain/loss and the gain/loss from change in fair value of derivatives.
o Gain from the change in fair value of the conversion feature of the
Company's convertible bonds was RMB1.4 million (US$0.2 million), compared
with RMB1.2 million in 3Q12 and RMB33.2 million in 4Q11. The fluctuations
resulting from the adoption of ASC 815-40 on January 1, 2009, were
primarily due to changes in the Company's ADS price during the quarter.
This line item has fluctuated, and is expected to continue to fluctuate
quarter-to-quarter. The Company has no direct control over the
fluctuations.
o Income tax benefit in 4Q12 increased to RMB9.1 million (US$1.5 million),
compared with RMB15.8 million in 3Q12 and RMB179.9 million in 4Q11.
o Net loss attributable to shareholders on a non-GAAP basis1 was RMB650.6
million (US$104.4 million), compared with a net loss attributable to
shareholders of RMB301.9 million in 3Q12 and a net loss attributable to
shareholders of RMB862.3 million in 4Q11.
o Net loss per basic ADS on a non-GAAP basis was RMB7.70 (US$1.24), compared
with net loss per basic ADS on a non-GAAP basis of RMB3.57 in 3Q12 and net
loss per basic ADS on a non-GAAP basis of RMB10.22 in 4Q11.
o Net loss attributable to shareholders on a GAAP basis was RMB670.4 million
(US$107.6 million), compared with net loss attributable to shareholders of
RMB322.1 million in 3Q12 and net loss attributable to shareholders of
RMB832.9 million in 4Q11.
o Net loss per basic ADS on a GAAP basis was RMB7.93 (US$1.27), compared
with net loss per basic ADS of RMB3.81 in 3Q12 and net loss per basic ADS
of RMB9.88 in 4Q11.
o Annualized ROE on a non-GAAP basis was negative 97.6% in 4Q12, compared
with negative 38.5% in 3Q12 and negative 81.5% in 4Q11.
o Annualized ROE on a GAAP basis was negative 87.0% in 4Q12, compared with
negative 36.0% in 3Q12 and negative 70.6% in 4Q11.
FINANCIAL POSITION
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB676.5
million (US$108.6 million) and net working capital of RMB44.3 million (US$7.1
million), compared with cash and cash equivalents of RMB1,607.2 million and
net working capital of RMB915.4 million as of September 30, 2012. Total
short-term bank borrowings (including the current portion of long-term bank
borrowings) were RMB1, 629.6 million (US$261.6 million), compared with RMB1,
917.7 million as of September 30, 2012.
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had total long-term debt of RMB2, 653.7
million (US$425.9 million), which comprised both long-term bank borrowings and
convertible notes payable. The Company's long-term bank borrowings are to be
repaid in installments until their maturities ranging from 2 to 4 years.
Holders of the convertible notes have the option to require the Company to
redeem the notes beginning on January 15, 2015.
Net cash used in operating activities in 4Q12 was RMB440.7 million (US$70.7
million), compared with net cash used in operating activities of RMB322.1
million in 3Q12 and net cash generated from operating activities of RMB311.3

increased to 164 days in 4Q12 from 126 days in 3Q12 and 82 days in 4Q11. The
decline in receivables from 3Q12 to 4Q12 reflects lower shipments and
revenues. The increase in DSO reflects longer credit terms to meet industry
competitive standards. As of December 31, 2012, inventories increased to
RMB838.7 million (US$134.6 million) from RMB757.0 million as of September 30,
2012, and from RMB684.0 million as of December 31, 2011. Day's inventory was
65 days in 4Q12 compared with 63 days in 3Q12 and 53 days in 4Q11.

January 1, 2012 and may do so in the future, subject to market conditions and
other factors. The Company has purchased approximately $72 million out of
US$172.5 million in face value.
CAPACITY EXPANSION
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had production capacities of 800 MW for
ingot and wafer, 1.3 GW for cell and 1.5 GW for module. The Company currently
