Solar-perle aus Kanada
Deshalb bin ich gestern leider etwas zu früh raus ( Mit Verlust versteht sich ).
Und ob die Ami´s wieder das Gap schließen wollen weiß auch keiner, also wart ich erstmal ab was die Burschen da drüben machen.
Ich setzt lieber ein paar Mäuse in den Wind als wieder überrascht nach Hause zu kommen.
Glücklich sind sicher die die am 01.08. für 23 $ rein sind und womöglich gestern zu 35 verkauft haben. Ich hing seit März drin für 38$ und ein paar Cent. Und ein halbes Jahr rauf/runter reichte um gestern bei schlappe 35$ mal Platz zu schaffen im dunkelrotem Depot.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Canadian Solar (Nasdaq: CSIQ) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from sell to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, impressive record of earnings per share growth and compelling growth in net income. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including generally higher debt management risk and poor profit margins.
Canadian hat Mitte August bei einer Analystenkonferenz die hohe Werthaltigkeit ihrer kanadischen Projektpipeline ziemlich deutlich gemacht in dem man bis Herbst 2015 aus der kanadischen Projektpipeline (insgesamt bei 536 MW) einen Umsatz von 1,6 Mrd. $ erwartet mit einer Bruttomarge von um die 20%. Das war dann doch eine super Ansage. In Japan z.B. will Canadian im kommenden Jahr 13 eigene Projekte umsetzen über insgesamt 72 MW und die sind zusammen mit den 40 MW, die Canadian noch in diesem Jahr in Japan baut, eigentlich ideal für einen YieldCo. Zumal ja diese Solarkraftwerke über sehr hohe Einspeisevergütungen von um die 0,33 $/kWh verfügen und somit für Fonds wie auch Versicherungen fast ideal sind, weil einigermaßen risikolos und mit sehr gut berechenbaren vierteljährlichen Dividendeneinnahmen. Bei den derzeit in den USA gelisteten YieldCos für Windparks bzw. Solarparks gibt es Dividendenrenditen von um die 5%.

Der Großteil der Infos sind zwar bekannt, aber diese Präsentation gibt einen super Überblick wie und wann Canadian ihre Projektpipeline umsetzen will.
Man sieht ja heute z.B. an Trina Solar wie die Börse auf ein hohes Projektvolumen schaut. Trina hat heute den chinesischen Projektierer Yunnan Metallurgical New Energy zu 90% gekauft, der gerade dabei ist das 300 MW große Solarkraftwerk Yunnan zu bauen, das bis Mitte 2015 fertig sein soll. Mit dieser heutigen Meldung macht Trina heute ein Plus von über 5%.
Das riecht nach Angstschweiß. Immerhin war die shortquote zuletzt wieder gestiegen.
GUELPH, Ontario, Sept. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Canadian Solar Inc. (the "Company" or "Canadian Solar") (NASDAQ: CSIQ), one of the world's largest solar power companies, today announced that a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company has entered into an agreement with Sichuan Development Investment Management Ltd. ("Sichuan Development") to establish an investment fund to finance the development, construction and ownership of solar power generation projects in China.
Sichuan Development is an investment management company established and funded by the Sichuan Development Holding Co. Ltd., an investment arm of the Sichuan provincial government. Sichuan Development has over RMB 23 billion (USD3.7 billion) of assets under management and is expected to provide support to facilitate the project development and financing to the fund.
A total of RMB5 billion (USD800 million) is expected to be raised from Sichuan Development, Canadian Solar and third party investors. Sichuan Development and Canadian Solar plan to contribute an initial amount equally, with third party investors expected to contribute the remaining amount to reach the target.
"Our partnership with Sichuan Development to develop, build and own solar power plants is an important milestone for Canadian Solar. This partnership will leverage Canadian Solar's proven track record in developing and building solar power plants on a global basis with Sichuan Development financial strength and credibility to create an industry leader well positioned to participate in the expected growth in the adoption of solar energy in China. While we expect to cover the whole country, this fund will focus particularly on utility-scale and distributed generation solar projects in Sichuan Province, China and other solar resourceful regions in the country," said Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Solar...."

Kleineres Projekt, aber große wirkung? einen Fuß in die Tür Middle East zu bekommen ist auf jeden Fall mal kein schlechtes Zeichen.
L+S bietet übrgines grad schöne KO-Scheine an...
Highlights from the ratings report include:
CSIQ's very impressive revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 9.0%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues leaped by 76.9%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
CANADIAN SOLAR INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, CANADIAN SOLAR INC turned its bottom line around by earning $0.56 versus -$4.52 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($3.51 versus $0.56).
The gross profit margin for CANADIAN SOLAR INC is currently extremely low, coming in at 14.71%. Regardless of CSIQ's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, CSIQ's net profit margin of 0.81% is significantly lower than the industry average.
The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 2.25 and currently higher than the industry average, implying increased risk associated with the management of debt levels within the company. To add to this, CSIQ has a quick ratio of 0.62, this demonstrates the lack of ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.

und lässt nut noch Häusersolar unter 10MW ran ,nur 14% von fertigen Solarprojekten sind bisher ans Netz angeschlossen.Die Insel Kyushu hat eine Solarplant mit 85MW fertig
Auch Hokkaido Electric Power Co and Okinawa Electric Power Co haben schon Begrenzungen festgelegt
TOKYO (Reuters) - Kyushu Electric Power Co said on Thursday it would cut access to its grid for renewable energy suppliers, the third of Japan's 10 regional monopolies to place limits on their cleaner energy intake because of network limitations.
The decision by Japan's fifth-biggest utility by sales is another blow to the government's plans to increase renewable energy supply as much as possible following the Fukushima disaster in March 2011, which has shaken public faith in atomic power and left all the country's reactors idle.
The company is concerned about potential supply imbalances that could cause blackouts and needs to study the impact of the solar capacity connected so far, Hasako said, adding that the study was expected to take several months.
The utility, which supplies electricity to the southwestern island of Kyushu, will continue accepting applications for solar installations of under 10 kilowatts, typically household size.
Kyushu is home to Japan's largest operating solar plant, which has capacity of 82 megawatts.
Hokkaido Electric Power Co and Okinawa Electric Power Co have already placed limitations on solar projects due to a lack of grid capacity in their regions.
"The balance sheets of many power utilities are very strained, which means it is hard for them to make investments (in their grids) beyond what is deemed absolutely necessary," said independent energy analyst Toshinori Ito.
In 2012 Japan introduced a so-called feed-in-tariff scheme, whereby power companies are required to purchase all electricity generated from renewable sources, such as geothermal, solar and wind, at guaranteed rates for set periods.
The rates, which were initially among the highest in the world, led to a rush of planned investment, and suppliers had received approval for 71 gigawatts of capacity under the scheme as of April 30, the latest industry ministry data shows.
Most of that, more than 68 gigawatts, has been for solar-powered projects.
If Japan managed to connect all the sun-powered capacity to utilities' tightly controlled grids, the total would be almost double that of Germany, the world's biggest user of solar power with installed capacity of 35.7 gigawatts at the end of 2013.
But the regional monopolies, which dominate generation and transmission of electricity in Japan, have said they reserve the right to reject applications to connect renewable sources if grid stability is threatened.
Only 9.8 gigawatts of government-approved renewable capacity, or 14 percent, had been connected by the end of April, the industry ministry figures show.
Kyushu Electric, which accounts for a fifth of the renewable capacity connected since the scheme started, will stop taking applications from projects to connect to the grid from Thursday, spokesman Masatoshi Hasako said by phone.

Aktuell gibt es in Japan die Einspeisevergütungen in dem Zeitraum das Solarkraftwerk genehmigt wurde. Offenbar will Japan das jetzt ändern und wie z.B. in Deutschland sollen die Einspeisevergütungen gelten, die zum Bauende des Solarkraftwerkes gültig sind. Jedoch glaube ich nicht, dass es nur bei dieser Kürzung bleiben wird. In Japan sind derzeit knapp 70 GW an Solarkraftwerken genehmigt worden und nur 11 bis 12 GW sind fertig gebaut. Kann mir kaum vorstellen, dass das japanische Stromnetz in den nächsten 2, 3 Jahren 50 GW an dem stark schwankenden Solarstrom aufnehmen kann. Deshalb ist wohl zu erwarten, dass Japan wohl ihre komplettes Solarförderungssystem neu überdenken wird. Nicht nur, dass die Einspeisevergütungen deutlich gekürzt werden, sondern dass es eventuell sogar zu einem Zubaudeckel kommen könnte inkl. einer Quotenverteilung auf die japanischen Regionen. Dazu der bekannte Solarbär Gordon Johnson von Axiom Capital Management: "Alle chinesischen Solarunternehmen verlassen sich stark auf Japan und wenn der weltweit zweitgrößte Solarmarkt ausgebremst wird werden die Modulpreise fallen wird".

Dazu kamen auch noch andere negative News. So gab es in Großbritanien in Q3 gerade mal einen Zubau von 295 MW und Großbritanien war eigentlich der große Hoffnungsträger im europäischen Solarmarkt. Darauf hat die solarbullishe Solarbuzz ihre 2014er Zubauprognose für Großbritanien von 2,8 auf 2,4 GW gekürzt. Wenn ich dann noch sehe, dass in Deutschland im August nur 140 MW an Solar zugebaut wurde (Juli 343 MW), dann dürfte der europäische Solarmarkt in diesem Jahr sogar unter 9 GW an Zubau landen (2014: 10,5 GW).

Auch aus China kommen nicht gerade gute News. So meldete pvinsights von nach wie vor enttäuschenden Marktbedingungen in China. DAs sieht man auch an den Zellpreisen, denn die sind in China immer noch auf Tiefstand von unter 0,30 $/W.

Gab es im August durchgehend fast nur positive News (z.B. Modulpreise steigen teilweise/China hat ihre Solarförderung zum Positiven verändert), so gab es in den letzten Tagen durchgehend schlechte Solarnews und der schwache Yen und Euro sind auch nicht gerade positiv für die China-Solaris.
30 MW Ac für 161 Mio Can $. Das sind Preise! Will nicht wissen wie hoch da die Marge ist. Schade dass es zu den Q3 Zahlen noch so weit hin ist. Canadian bleibt auf jeden Fall mein Favorit bei den Solaris, gefolgt von Renesola, Jinko und Trina...
war schon 25.9.
Summary
Exciting potential for earnings per share.
Return potential up to $65 in a conservative view.
Remains undiscovered by retail investors.
....the real cause of an undervalued condition is the completely missed potential of earnings-per-share during the second half of this year. The combination of revenue and GM offered by the company is a clinical way to plot beyond the commonly used operational dynamic of third-party sales and average selling prices. In this form, this is another differentiator from the peer group, and certainly an advantage to any investor. The detail offered during conference calls, particularly the description of construction in-stages for each plant, as well as CFO Michael Potter providing a concise and clear message on behalf of the corporation, is an added strength when compared to peers.
What is so exciting about the second half of the year?
The company guided around $2.9B in 2014 as the revenue. In H1, that number was $1.08B, which leaves around $1.82B left for H2. Third-quarter guidance forecasts revenue at $810M, and the remaining $1.01B for the fourth quarter is a natural consequence of the year-to-date math. If the 21% gross margin is delivered during the third quarter, CSIQ will be able to produce $170M in Q3, $58M more than in Q2. If we lowered the Q4 result to about 19% gross margin, just to cover for growth in third-party sales to China, this number would become $190M. Assuming operating expenses (OPEX) to be in the vicinity of $120M for H2, we are looking at operational profit of $240M......
Only upon realization of 2014 EPS, CSIQ could be at around $82 per share if TTM is concerned, but this is too wild of a guess. In both scenarios, the high PE of TTM and low PE of the future, the stock offers the best returns among its own peers. Analysts' estimates are for the future, as they should be, and they see Canadian as the best of the group. They are, unfortunately, downplaying both EPS and PE. Despite being downplayed, stock is trading at the discount to those as well. Canaccord Genuity has given CSIQ $48 recently and FBR Capital Markets increased its price per share from $40 to $45.....

lediglich 2 MW sind von dem Netzanschlussproblem in Japan betroffen. Dazu noch ein >100 MW projekt in einer andern Region, wo aber noch bis mind. 2016 Zeit ist dies gerade zu rücken.
Zu den nächsten Zahlen hin ist es nicht mehr lang. Und dann wird das wieder werden.
