Chinese solar concern ReneSola Ltd. (NYSE: SOL) is trading sharply higher today after the company reported that fourth-quarter revenue will exceed analysts' expectations. SOL expects to rake in revenue of $157 million to $159 million, compared to the Street's consensus estimate of $154 million.
However, the rest of ReneSola's forecast wasn't quite as sunny. The alternative energy firm warned that it will swing to a fourth-quarter net loss of $125 million to $130 million, prompted by "significant downward pressure" on average selling prices and margins. ReneSola predicted quarterly writedowns of $130 million to $140 million, due to the rapid deterioration in the price and value of materials.
