An announcement from Canadian Solar ( (CSIQ) ) is now available.
On May 15, 2025, Canadian Solar Inc. reported its financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2025. The company achieved a 9.4% year-over-year increase in solar module shipments, reaching 6.9 GW, surpassing its guidance. Despite a challenging market environment with low module prices and geopolitical issues, Canadian Solar reported net revenues of $1.2 billion, at the high end of its guidance, and a gross margin of 11.7%. However, the company faced a net loss of $34 million due to tariffs and lower storage contributions. Recurrent Energy, a subsidiary, secured a $415 million credit facility to support its IPP portfolio expansion. The results highlight Canadian Solar’s strategic focus on balancing short-term challenges with long-term growth opportunities in the energy storage sector.
