* Daqo New Energy provides non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, EBITDA and EBITDA margin on a non-GAAP basis to provide supplemental information regarding its operating performance. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section captioned "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the tables captioned "Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to comparable US GAAP measures" set forth at the end of this press release.
** Production cost and cash cost only refer to production in our Xinjiang polysilicon facilities. Production cost is calculated by the inventoriable costs relating to production of polysilicon in Xinjiang divided by the production volume in the quarter. Cash cost is calculated by the inventoriable costs relating to production of polysilicon excluding depreciation expense of Xinjiang divided by the production volume in the quarter.
"We are proud that the Company continues to deliver excellent performances in the second quarter of 2014 and records the second consecutive quarter of profitability," announced Dr. Gongda Yao, the Company's chief executive officer.
"We shipped 1,436 MT of polysilicon in the second quarter of 2014, increasing from 1,391 MT in the first quarter of 2014. Wafer shipment in the second quarter of 2014 was 17.6 million pieces, increasing from 16.8 million pieces in the first quarter of 2014. We expanded EBITDA margin to 34.9% from 32.5% in the previous quarter, and produced positive operating income of $8.3 million. We achieved $4.5 million net income attributable to Daqo shareholders, up from $2.6 million in the previous quarter, despite the costs relating to the non-operational Chongqing polysilicon plant of $3.4 million this quarter."
"In the second quarter of 2014, we continued our cost reduction road map and brought down our polysilicon production cost (including depreciation) to $14.13/kg with a cash cost of $11.48/kg (excluding depreciation). Although we conducted annual maintenance and preparation works for hydrochlorination in this April, which affected production for 5 days, we produced 1,504 MT of polysilicon in the second quarter, compared to1,517 MT in the first quarter of 2014. The annual maintenance time was down from 17 days in 2013 to the current 5 days in 2014. We expect that our actual polysilicon production volume in 2014 will be close to our nameplate capacity of 6,150MT and our annual average cash cost (excluding depreciation) and production cost (including depreciation) to be approximately $11.30/kg and $14.00/kg, respectively.
"In this May, we successfully raised $54.6 million through a follow-on offering in the public market. We will use the net proceeds mainly for the expansion and technology improvement at our Xinjiang polysilicon facility. The construction work started in this April and is on track with the schedule. We expect to finish the construction and installation by the end of November and start pilot production right away. We expect to fully ramp up the capacity to 12,150MT in the second quarter of 2015 and therefore reduce our cash cost (excluding depreciation) and production cost (including depreciation) to approximately $8.70/kg and $12.00/kg, respectively."
"In the second quarter of 2014, the average selling price, or ASP, for polysilicon was $22.04/kg, up from $21.63 in the first quarter of 2014. In the first half of 2014, China's domestic installation was reported to be around 3.3 GW which was lower than expected. Entering into the third quarter, the polysilicon ASP is relatively lower compared to the second quarter due to high downstream inventories. Nevertheless, on August 7, China National Energy Bureau increased the 2014's target of newly added installation to 13GW from the previously announced 10GW. We are optimistic that the trend will soon pick up in the fourth quarter due to rising installation not only in China but also in other major markets such as the US and Japan. We believe the continuously growing end-market demand will strongly support polysilicon ASP in the fourth quarter of 2014 and beyond. As a cost leader, with a doubled capacity under construction and a further cost reduction roadmap, the Company is very well positioned for the next rapid growing cycle which we believe has already started." concluded Dr. Yao.
Market outlook and Q3 2014 guidance
According to IHS's latest report on solar PV market in June, IHS adjusted its 2014 global installation guidance upward to 47GW. On August 7, China National Energy Bureau increased the 2014's target of newly added installation to 13GW from the previously announced 10GW and reaffirmed its resolution to actively drive distributed generation market. It is expected that the new policies to encourage distributed generation will be soon announced. Consider in the first half of 2014 the total newly added installation is around 3.3GW, we strongly believe the market will soon pick up in the fourth quarter due to rising installation especially in China. In addition, we do see more and more policies are getting in place for the distributed generation market in terms of financing, insurance, grid connection, incentive payment schedule et cetera. We believe the opportunities in distributed generation are emerging as the bottlenecks are being removed gradually.
For the third quarter of 2014, the Company expects to ship 1,450 MT to 1,500 MT of polysilicon. The Company also expects to ship approximately 16.8 million to 17.0 million pieces of wafer. This outlook reflects our current and preliminary view and may be subject to change. Our ability to achieve this projection is subject to risks and uncertainties.
Second Quarter 2014 Results
Revenues
Revenues were $43.7 million, increasing from $42.1 million in the first quarter of 2014 and $27.8 million in the second quarter of 2013.
The Company generated revenues of $31.0 million from polysilicon, increasing from $30.1 million in the first quarter of 2014, and $16.4 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase from the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to higher sales volumes and higher ASP for polysilicon.
The Company generated $12.7 million from sales of wafers, compared to $12.0 million in the first quarter of 2014 and $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase from the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to higher sales volumes offset by slightly lower ASP for wafer.
Gross profit and margin
Gross profit was $10.1 million, compared to $9.0 million in the first quarter of 2014 and a gross loss of $10.2 million in the second quarter of 2013.
Gross margin was 23.1%, compared to 21.4% in the first quarter of 2014 and substantially improved from negative 36.7% in the second quarter of 2013. The continuous improvement in gross margin was mainly attributable to higher ASP and lower production cost for polysilicon.
In the second quarter of 2014, total costs related to the non-operational Chongqing polysilicon plant including depreciation were $3.4 million, decreasing from $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2014 and $9.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, respectively. Excluding such costs, the non-GAAP gross margin was approximately 30.9%, compared to 30.2% in the first quarter of 2014 and negative 3.9% in the second quarter of 2013. For a definition and a reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin to gross margin, see " --Non-GAAP financial measures" and " -- Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to comparable US GAAP measures" below.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net cash used in investing activities was $30.9 million, compared to $3.0 million in the same period of 2013. The cash used in investing activities are mainly related to the expansion of and technology improvement project in our Xinjiang polysilicon facilities.
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net cash provided by financing activities was $52.8 million, compared to $28.7 million in the same period of 2013. In May 2014, the Company issued and sold 2,000,000 American depositary shares ("ADSs") through a follow-on public offering priced at US$29.00 per ADS. Each ADS represents 25 ordinary shares of the Company. We will use the net proceeds mainly for the expansion of and technology improvement at our Xinjiang polysilicon facility. Net of offering expenses, the net proceeds was $54.6 million. As of the end of July 2014, the Company had spent approximately $38.0 million on the expansion of and technology improvement project in our Xinjiang facilities, among which $12.2 million was from the proceeds of the follow-on offering.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Daqo's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("US GAAP"), Daqo uses in this press release non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin, which exclude costs related to the non-operational polysilicon operations in Chongqing, EBITDA, which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and EBITDA margin, which represents the proportion of EBITDA in revenue. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with US GAAP. Daqo believes that the non-GAAP financial measures facilitate investors' and management's comparisons to Daqo's historical performance and assists management's financial and operational decision making.
A reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures to comparable US GAAP measures is presented later in this document.
