Junda Corporation (002865.SZ) has passed the hearing for listing on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, further consolidating its dominant position as the world's largest professional manufacturer of N-type TOPCon batteries.
Gelonghui, April 23 - On April 21, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange disclosed that Hainan Junda New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Junda Shares") has passed the main board listing hearing of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Huatai International, CMB International, and Deutsche Bank are its joint sponsors.
Junda Shares is a leading professional photovoltaic cell manufacturer, focusing on the research, development, production, and sales of high-efficiency photovoltaic cells. It holds a competitive position in mainstream photovoltaic cell fields such as N-type TOPCon cells through research and innovation and key technologies. It is also one of the world's largest professional manufacturers of N-type TOPCon cells, with significant technological and market advantages.
In terms of technological research and development, the company continuously innovates. Its N-type TOPCon cells apply half-cell edge passivation and wave back field technology, achieving an average mass production conversion efficiency of over 26% in 2023. This key indicator is expected to increase by 0.5 percentage points in 2024, with a bifacial rate of 90% and a non-silicon cost reduction of about 30% per watt, widening the cost gap with existing TOPCon capacities in the industry. Meanwhile, the company is actively laying out cutting-edge technologies such as HJT, perovskite tandem photovoltaic cells, and xBC to solidify its leading position in the cell segment.
In terms of market layout, Junda Shares is vigorously expanding overseas capacity. By the end of the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025, the company's overseas sales ratio recorded 23.9% and 58.1%, respectively, significantly increasing its overseas sales ratio, which has become a key driver of the company's performance. In addition to expanding the battery export business market, the company plans to invest in the construction of a 5GW high-efficiency battery capacity in Oman, further enhancing its global market battery product supply capability through capacity expansion overseas. The company will continue to promote project fundraising, design, construction, and other preparatory work based on changes in the overseas market. The project is planned to be completed and put into production by the end of 2025. With the implementation of U.S. equivalent tariffs, the global cost curve for U.S.-bound capacity has steepened, and the low-tax advantage of Oman's capacity for U.S. exports has increased its scarcity. After production, it may enhance the company's profit elasticity and continuously strengthen its global competitive advantage.
