On 14 July, Longi held a launch event and unveiled new technologies to reduce cost and

improve efficiency. 1) ACM (Alloy Contact Matrix) technology: it significantly reduces Shares o/s 7,578m (ORDA)

silver consumption, and replaced with copper-based alloy contact system, which leads Free float 57%

to 0.2-0.3% efficiency improvement and 3-5W module power increase. 2) Integrated Avg. daily volume ('000) 143,949

manufacturing complexity, improves reliability and power density. It could lift module P/BV (12/26E) 1.8x

power by another 3-5W. 3) By combining these new technologies, the module power Net debt to EBITDA (12/26E) 10.4x

output could potentially reach as high as 690W. ACM cell already started mass
