1、 Issuer description
(I) whether the sales price of the company to Jingke energy is fair during the reporting period
Jingke energy is a vertically integrated manufacturer of downstream “silicon material processing – silicon wafer – battery wafer – module”. It is a leading enterprise in the photovoltaic industry. It has a large demand for polysilicon material procurement. Longgen Zhang, a director of the company, once served as a director of jinkosolar Holding Co., Ltd. (an American listed company, stock code: JKS. N), and resigned as a director of the company on December 7, 2020. According to the Listing Rules of Shanghai Stock Exchange’s Kechuang board, the issuer still discloses the transaction volume with Jingke energy holdings and its subsidiaries from December 7, 2020 to December 6, 2021 as related party transactions. After December 6, 2021, the issuer will no longer disclose the above companies as related parties. During the reporting period, the issuer sold polysilicon materials to Jingke energy.
During the reporting period, the issuer sold polysilicon to Jingke energy as follows:
Project 20212020 2019
Total sales amount (yuan): 1457506991158744389139558150828928
Total sales quantity (kg) 100242 Shahe Industrial Co.Ltd(000014) 02560 Cofco Biotechnology Co.Ltd(000930) 616000
The average selling price of Jingke energy (yuan / kg) is 145.40 62.35 62.49
Average selling unit price of the issuer (yuan / kg) 143.18 61.93 62.74
Variance amount (yuan / kg) 2.22 0.42 -0.25
Difference rate: 1.55%, 0.67% – 0.40%
The average sales price of the company to Jingke energy in 2019, 2020 and 2021 has little deviation from the average sales price of the issuer in that period. During the reporting period, the issuer’s sales price of Jingke energy was not significantly unfair.

1. Development trend and cycle of the industry and policies of downstream industries
(1) The supply of medium and short-term polysilicon determines the upper limit of photovoltaic installation
In the medium and short term, the demand for silicon is greater than the supply, and the new installed capacity of photovoltaic will be basically determined by the capacity of the supply bottleneck. Polysilicon is the basic raw material of photovoltaic industry, and polysilicon production is in the upstream of photovoltaic industry chain. As a link with high technical / financial barriers, relatively rigid production capacity and long production expansion / climbing cycle, superimposed with factors such as routine maintenance, silicon material is more likely to rise in price due to short supply than other links such as silicon wafers, cells and modules, which has become the supply bottleneck of the whole supply chain of photovoltaic industry. In 2021, the global output of photovoltaic polysilicon was about 590000 tons, of which China’s polysilicon output was 488000 tons, and most of the global polysilicon production capacity was in China. According to the information publicly disclosed by CPIA, PV InfoLink, enterprises and the estimated production time of the capacity under construction, the polysilicon output in 2022 is expected to be in a tight balance with the new installed capacity demand of downstream photovoltaic. The output of polysilicon is still likely to determine the upper limit of new installed capacity of photovoltaic in 2022 based on the role of supply chain bottleneck, so polysilicon is still expected to maintain a high market price in 2022.
Since 2019, the price of high-purity polysilicon is as follows:
Unit: yuan / kg
two hundred and fifty
two hundred
one hundred and fifty
one hundred
fifty
zero
Source: wind
In 2019, the price of polysilicon products generally showed a continuous downward trend, mainly due to: first, after the promulgation of the “531 policy” in 2018, the industry demand decreased rapidly, the polysilicon supply was relatively rigid, and the imbalance between supply and demand led to a sharp decline in the price of polysilicon. The price at the end of the year was lower than that at the beginning of the year
